*Huge Las Vegas Strip event his a speed bump*

Las Vegas has been preparing for the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, a street race around the city with events that begin on Wednesday, Nov. 13. But the event has hit several speed bumps as it tries to gear up for the major sporting event — the first year of a 10-year contract that the city and Formula 1 hopes will go into perpetuity. Tons of locals are unhappy with how it has affected the city, and the event seems to be struggling to reel in the demand it once expected when it was announced in March 2022. @vegasstarfish The Las Vegas Strip looks much different from “normal” these days as grand stands, lighting and structural changes are made to accomodate the highly anticipated F1 Formula One Grand Prix event November 18th. Access to popular attractions like the Mirage Volcano, Bellagio Fountains and Caesar’s Palace Fountains are inaccessible through December to tourists. #vegas #lasvegas #vegasstarfish #vegasstrip #formulaone #f1vegas #vegasnews #vegasevents #vegaslocal #vegasexperience #bellagiofountain ♬ Spooky music box bell horror BGM - Notzan ACT Related: Las Vegas Strip moves closer to doomsday strike scenario According to a CNN report from Thursday, Nov. 9, ticket prices have dropped significantly for the event.

*“The Marvels” made $47 million opening weekend, the lowest in MCU history*

TheStreet's J.D. Durkin brings the latest business headlines from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange as markets open for trading Monday, November 13. Full Video Transcript Below: J.D. DURKIN: I'm J.D. Durkin - reporting from the New York Stock Exchange. Here's what we're watching on TheStreet today. Stocks are kicking off the week on a lower note after Moody's Investor Service lowered the U.S. credit rating to negative from stable. Moody’s attributed the downgrade to the U.S. debt as well as the political gridlock in Washington. Later this week, investors will be watching for a host of economic data. October inflation data will be released Tuesday, and Wednesday we'll get a clearer picture of consumer spending with the release of retail sales data. Turning our attention to the big screen - with a $47 million opening weekend haul, the latest installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, "The Marvels," had the worst opening weekend for any MCU film - which total 33. The movie also brought in just over $63 million in ticket sales internationally. For comparison, the prequel, "Captain Marvel," saw over $150 million in domestic box office sales during its opening weekend in 2019. The previous low for an MCU film debut was "The Incredible Hulk" in 2008, which brought in just $55.4 million its first weekend. And while a $47 million opening weekend is hardly considered subpar, it pales in comparison to the MCU’s best opening, 2019’s "Avengers: End Game," which raked in over $357 million during the three-day slate. Disney, which owns the MCU, has said it would begin to dial back its Marvel content. That’ll do it for your daily briefing. From the New York Stock Exchange, I’m J.D. Durkin with TheStreet.

*Another legacy automaker has a powerful response to UAW auto union threat*

The United Auto Workers union last month won a historic new contract for its 146,000 members, bringing more than 40 days of steadily expanding rolling strikes to a close. The new contracts prominently feature 25% wage increases over the four-year terms of the contract, in addition to cost-of-living adjustments, better retirement contributions and enhanced benefits. The contracts must be ratified by the membership before they are enacted; once ratified, workers will receive an 11% pay raise, with the remaining 14% to come over the terms of the contract. But perhaps the most impactful moment of the strikes came when UAW president Shawn Fain set his sights on grander horizons, saying in October that workers at prominent non-union companies like Toyota TM, Honda HMC and yes, even Tesla TSLA, are the "UAW members of the future." Related: How the UAW auto union landed its record contracts: A timeline of events "When we return to the bargaining table in 2028, it won’t just be with the Big Three, but with the Big Five or Big Six," the union said last month. And amid reports that a UAW organizing committee has made forays into at least one Tesla plant, several of these automakers have been making moves to protect against the threat of this empowered union. Toyota on Nov. 1 announced wage increases for its workers; Honda on Nov. 10 made a similar announcement. The UAW union won the support of President Joe Biden, who walked the picket lines with striking workers. JIM WATSON/Getty Images Hyundai HYMLF on Monday joined its two non-union peers in announcing a big wage boost to shield against potential unionization efforts by the UAW. Related: Elon Musk's Tesla has a new union problem on the heels of historic union win The new wage structure will only impact employees at Hundai's manufacturing plants in Alabama and Georgia. Workers will see their hourly wages increase by 25% by 2028. “We have the best team members in the industry, and we are compensating them accordingly,” José Muñoz, president and global COO of Hyundai said in a statement. “Hyundai continuously strives to maintain competitive wage and benefits commensurate to industry peers." The wage increase, which mirrors that which the UAW won, comes as Hyundai is investing more than $12 billion to build its Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America factory, as well as two battery joint ventures in Georgia. The company said that the investment would create 12,000 direct jobs, adding that, with a new increase coming in January, the 4,000 workers at its Alabama factory will have received 14% wage increases over the past 12 months. Hyundai also highlighted a recent study by the Center for Automotive Research that found that Hyundai's operations contributed more than $20 billion and nearly 200,000 jobs to the U.S. economy in 2021. Hyundai shares, up 26% for the year, fell more than 1% Monday.

*Your loan rates may plunge if UBS's Fed forecast is correct*

With signs of economic slowdown starting to arise, some experts predict the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates big time next year. You can count economists/strategists at UBS in that camp. Lower Fed rates, of course, mean lower rates for your home, auto, credit-card, personal and student loans. The economy grew a hefty 4.9% in the third quarter, but the unemployment rate ticked up to 3.9% in October from 3.4% in April. “The economy proved much more resilient in 2023 than we expected,” the UBS experts wrote in a report. “However, many of the same headwinds and risks remain, and some of the supports for growth in 2023 subside in 2024.” They expect unemployment to keep rising and inflation to keep falling next year. Consumer prices gained 3.7% in the 12 months through September, down from a peak of 9.1% in June 2022.Rate reductions coming, UBS says “We think that leads the Fed to reduce rates,” the experts said. “We expect growth, inflation and the federal funds rate in 2024 will end up below consensus expectations.” They still are concerned that “the economy is not out of the woods yet.” Among the concerns:“credit and lending standards appear to be tightening,“we continue to see labor market income revised lower,” and,“spending looks elevated relative to income, pushed up by fiscal stimulus and remaining there due to excess savings,” the experts said. But waning fiscal stimulus means less growth, they said. “Households’ excess savings and solid balance sheets look less solid with every passing month.” The economy has outperformed this year “because many of these risks failed to materialize,” UBS said. “However, that does not mean they have been eliminated.” The experts expect “substantially slower growth in 2024” with the Fed’s federal funds rate ending the year between 2.5% and 2.75%. That’s 2.75 percentage points below the current range of 5.25%-5.5%.Opposing view on rates at Goldman Sachs To be sure, not everyone sees a move that extreme. Goldman Sachs economists predict only one 25-basis-point, or 0.25-percentage-point, rate cut next year. They expect GDP growth to total 1.8%, “easily beating low consensus expectations.” The differing views show just how hard it is to forecast the economy and Fed policy. So it’s wise to stick to a balanced approach in your personal finances. As always, don’t take out any more debt than necessary, and pay off your debt with the highest interest rates first. On the investment front, you generally want a balanced portfolio, including some fixed-income assets — unless you’re younger, in which case you can be a bit more aggressive with equities.
