AP  —  Arab leaders on Tuesday endorsed Egypt’s postwar plan for the Gaza Strip that would allow its roughly 2 million Palestinians to remain, in a counterproposal to US President Donald Trump’s plan to depopulate the territory and redevelop it as a beach destination.

 U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discusses the economic outlook for America on ‘Kudlow.’ Companies in the private sector added just 77,000 jobs in February, payroll processing firm ADP said on Wednesday. The figure — the lowest since July — is well below economists’ estimates of 140,000 jobs and also more than the prior month’s upwardly revised reading of 186,000. Annual pay was up 4.7%, the same as the prior month, ADP said.”Policy uncertainty and a slowdown in consumer spending might have led to layoffs or a slowdown in hiring last month,” said Nela Richardson, ADP’s chief economist. “Our data, combined…
