Quezon City, Jul 9 (EFE/EPA).- The government of Philippines disbursed on Friday relief funding as part of ongoing efforts to support citizens affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. According to records of the government's Department of Social Welfare and Development, some 18 million families affected economically by the COVID-19 pandemic are looking to get a boost from government welfare programs, which in turn have faced difficulties in manual and digital payout schemes more than a year since various levels of lockdown protocols have been implemented.

President Donald Trump has changed his thinking, and now says he wants a big stimulus bill passed before the general election on November 3rd. Fed Chair Jay Powell also wants to see one passed and has warned that without one, the US economy's recovery will surely falter. But the Republican-led Senate hasn't passed a new coronavirus relief bill since April 21st, and shows little signs of doing so before the election. According to Business Insider, the GOP is far more concerned with getting the Supreme Court tilted to the right by having Amy Coney Barrett confirmed. For more than five months, Congress has held up a comprehensive stimulus package for tens of millions of Americans and left them in limbo. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell wants a so-called 'skinny' bill, while House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is holding out for far more for the American worker.
Wall Street saw US stocks slide on Tuesday, as fiscal stimulus negotiations lurched into stalemate territory. According to Business Insider, initial results of the third-quarter earnings season kick-off from banks like Citigroup and JPMorgan also failed to impress investors. Apple announced its new iPhone 12 lineup--the tech giant's first major redesign of its flagship product in over 3 years. It didn't go over well: Apple's stock slid, too. And even gold, the ever-popular commodity, fell as much as 1.9%, to $1,886.54 per ounce. However, a breakthrough in stimulus talks could be near, as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell signaled support for passing a deal prior to the upcoming election.
