WS #7550

The dominant signal in this window is the WHO declaring the Ebola outbreak a global health emergency, corroborated by Hacker News and NYT. This is a high-significance development with no approved vaccine for the Bundibugyo strain, potentially triggering risk-off sentiment and impacting healthcare stocks. Separately, Ukraine's large-scale drone strikes on Russian oil refineries (cutting production by 480,000 bpd) are confirmed by multiple sources (NPR, Bluesky), supporting oil prices and energy stocks. A financial disclosure shows Trump purchased up to $630,000 of Palantir stock, signaling confidence in PLTR. The Publicis acquisition of LiveRamp is a notable M&A event but less market-moving. The Ebola outbreak is the most actionable new development, with potential to move healthcare tickers and create broad market uncertainty.
