Pharmacists warn: takeover of ONVZ by VGZ increases medicine shortage

Wall Street is in positive spirits about the Thanksgiving dinner

The AEX ends the trading day with a plus of 1.2 percent. Chipper ASML in particular gave the index wings. Investors are drawing confidence from the recovery on Wall Street, where expectations of new interest rate cuts boosted sentiment. That optimism is further fueled by a report that Kevin Hassett, an outspoken proponent of lower interest rates, would be the favorite to become the next Fed chairman. The mood was also good on Wall Street in the run-up to Thanksgiving.
