Jennifer Buchanan/Seattle Times/ReutersThe Federal Aviation Administration on Tuesday granted final approval to the long-delayed Boeing BA-N 737 MAX 10, clearing the way for the US plane maker to begin delivering the largest version of its best-selling airplane. Boeing has said the MAX 10 will be a major driver of cash flow in its ongoing financial recovery following years of crises and controversies that slowed the company’s timeline for the MAX 10. So far, airlines have ordered more than 1,550 MAX 10s, and the model accounts for 31 per cent of Boeing’s outstanding 737 backlog, according to IBA, an aviation analytics consultancy. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is set to appear on Tuesday at a Boeing factory in Everett, Washington, to tout the FAA certification. Boeing in July opened a new production line at the Everett plant to increase 737 output, which it also assembles in nearby Renton. Before the delays, Boeing had initially planned to start delivering the MAX 10 in 2020.

Bitwise, Hyperliquid seek SEC rule changes for token trading, airdrops

Bitwise Asset Management and the Hyperliquid Policy Center are pressing the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to revise its proposed crypto rules, seeking clearer guidance on token classifications, airdrops and secondary-market trading in comment letters submitted Monday. The requests come as the SEC closes public comments Tuesday on its proposed Regulation Crypto Assets, which would create exemptions for qualifying crypto fundraising and a conditional safe harbor for tokens associated with investment contracts. In an Oct. 19 comment letter, Bitwise Asset Management urged the SEC to clarify how investment managers should determine whether a crypto asset is subject to securities laws, arguing that managers need a standard they can apply using “publicly available information.” The firm also sought clearer rules on when managers can rely on an issuer’s proposed Form TR filing, which would certify that an investment contract has ceased to exist, and how they should assess tokens when no such filing exists.

United Airlines forecasts quarterly profit well below estimates as fuel costs bite

Open this photo in gallery:A United Airlines plane at Chicago O'Hare International Airport in November, 2025. Adam Gray/The Canadian PressUnited Airlines UAL-Q on Tuesday forecast fourth-quarter profit well below Wall Street estimates, despite expectations for record revenue, as soaring fuel costs threatened to offset gains from strong travel demand and higher ticket prices. The Chicago-based carrier expects adjusted earnings of 50 cents to US$1.50 per share for the December quarter. LSEG data shows an average analyst estimate of US$1.76. The US$1 midpoint of the carrier’s outlook is 43 per cent below expectations. Even strong demand and sharply higher fares have been insufficient to shield airline profits from the fuel shock. US airfares rose an average of nearly 23 per cent year-on-year in the seven months through September, government data showed. United expects to pay US$4.80 a gallon for jet fuel in the fourth quarter, about 45 cents more than the market consensus assumption. The difference translates into roughly US$1 per share in earnings, the company said.
