** No Matter Who Wins
------------------------------------------------------------
While the 2016 presidential election has been taking place, the world hasn't stopped—accordingly, CSIS’s Colm Quinn (host of The CSIS Podcast) has recorded five new podcasts that look around the world, region to region, to find out what awaits the next president. Episodes are available on the CSIS website (https://www.csis.org/podcasts/csis-podcast?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=78d755c0da-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_07&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-78d755c0da-145367789) and on iTunes (https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-csis-podcast/id214886950?mt=2&utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=78d755c0da-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_07&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-78d755c0da-145367789) .

And, check out our new “About the News” podcast. On the eve of the most unusual presidential election in recent memory, we spoke to Brian Stelter, the host of CNN’s “Reliable Sources” about the “plague of fake news that set out to trick people” and the “blizzard of misinformation” circulating before Election Day. The episode is available on the CSIS website (https://www.csis.org/podcasts/bob-schieffers-about-news-h-andrew-schwartz?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=78d755c0da-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_07&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-78d755c0da-145367789) and on iTunes (https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/bob-schieffers-about-news/id1124101295?mt=2&utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=78d755c0da-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_07&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-78d755c0da-145367789) .


** Big Jump
------------------------------------------------------------
Investors rushed back into US stocks, sending the S&P 500 to its biggest gain since March jumping up 371 points. It was the latest sign of heightened volatility heading into the US presidential election, as the
Wall Street Journal’s Aaron Kuriloff and Riva Gold report (http://www.wsj.com/articles/stocks-dollar-rally-after-fbi-finds-no-new-evidence-to-charge-clinton-1478507955?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=78d755c0da-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_07&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-78d755c0da-145367789) .

And see Bloomberg’s Phil Kuntz who offers late this afternoon: “US election guide to markets: what to watch with one day to go (http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/sns-wp-blm-markets-election-15c92010-a52c-11e6-ba46-53db57f0e351-20161107-story.html?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=78d755c0da-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_07&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-78d755c0da-145367789) .”


** Nyet we didn’t…
------------------------------------------------------------
The Kremlin has “categorically denied” that Russia was involved in an alleged plot to assassinate Montenegro’s prime minister, as the
Financial Times’s Neil Buckley reports (https://www.ft.com/content/25c0f038-a518-11e6-8b69-02899e8bd9d1?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=78d755c0da-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_07&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-78d755c0da-145367789) .

It’s a must-read.

China’s Major Decisions
------------------------------------------------------------
China unveiled three major decisions today while the rest of the world focused on the US election: changing their finance minister, passing a cybersecurity law, and barring elected “localists” from taking office, as Bloomberg’s Andy Sharp reports (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-11-07/with-world-fixated-on-u-s-election-china-moves-on-three-fronts?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=78d755c0da-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_07&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-78d755c0da-145367789) .

** C’mon Duterte…
------------------------------------------------------------
President Rodrigo Duterte of the Philippines has canceled an order of some 26,000 police assault rifles from the US after rumors emerged that Washington stopped the sale last week, as the BBC reports (http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-37901045?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=78d755c0da-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_07&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-78d755c0da-145367789) .

** Smiles

When my friend Tom told me a couple of weeks ago that Chuck Berry had turned 90 years old I just couldn’t believe it. We need a smile on the eve of this election no matter what your politics are. I bet one thing we can all agree on is that America invented rock and roll and that Chuck Berry had something to do with it (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEtLeoNW6Sw&utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=78d755c0da-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2016_11_07&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-78d755c0da-145367789) .
