Optimistic about oil

-Oil prices edged higher Wednesday morning ahead of an OPEC meeting in Algiers. While hopes of reaching an agreement on production cuts or a freeze this time around have diminished, investors are optimistic that one will be reached at the next official meeting in Vienna on Nov. 30.

New suspicions surround Deutsche Bank

-The troubled German Bank saying Wednesday it had sold its Abbey Life insurance unit for $1.22 billion. This comes after speculation earlier in the week that Deutsche Bank (NYSE:DB) will be forced to raise capital due to concerns over its financial health.

Speaking of troubled banks…

-Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC) CEO John Stumpf will forfeit much of his 2016 salary, including his $41 million bonus, amid a new investigation into alleged illegal sales practices launched by the company’s independent directors. Carrie Tolstedt, the former head of the division charged with exercising the phony retail practices, will lose $19 million in pay along with her severance package.

The email scandal continues

-Hillary Clinton deleted more than 1,000 work-related emails between herself and General David Petraeus, during his time as U.S. Central Command Director.

Sorry President Obama

-The Senate will vote to override the President’s veto on the 9/11 lawsuit bill, a piece of legislation that would allow lawsuits against foreign sponsors of terrorism.

It appears there will be necessary majorities to override the veto in both houses of Congress.
