x/donald-john-trump
— 1d
President Trump continues to press to have his name affixed to the Kennedy Center while warning it could be closed or demolished if not recognized; new photos show him viewing materials suggesting demolition amid ongoing renovations.

— 3d
Smith+Nephew priced a cash tender offer for up to $250 million of its 2.032% senior notes due 2030 at $878.90 per $1,000, using a 4.83% reference yield with prorating if oversubscribed, and settlement expected around September 18, 2026. The move is part of ongoing liability management to optimize the balance sheet and interest costs, following recent debt actions and supported by mixed analyst signals.

If the offer gets oversubscribed the prorating will probably frustrate some bondholders who want out now.
