Lawmakers have paused legislation to privatize some Mississippi state parks and give others away to local governments, saying they need to conduct more research.
The Senate Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks Committee instead passed a bill Monday to create a legislative study committee â five members appointed by Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann, five by House Speaker Philip Gunn â that would research how best to fix Mississippiâs beleaguered parks system. The legislation now heads to the full Senate for consideration.

Following an enormous run-up in
Amazon.com s (NASDAQ:AMZN) stock price during the first seven months of the year, shares have failed to gain any meaningful momentum since then. The stock is currently at the same level it was on Aug. 1, 2020. Does the stock s underwhelming performance in recent months give investors a buying opportunity as we head into a year that may benefit from a reaccelerating U.S. economy as vaccines potentially begin suppressing COVID-19?

Tesla s (NASDAQ:TSLA) fourth quarter is extremely important particularly given the stock s soaring price this year. Can Tesla live up to the huge growth the market has come to expect from the company?
Key to keeping investors satisfied will be the company s fourth-quarter vehicle deliveries. Investors will look for the company to follow-through on its optimistic outlook for vehicle delivery growth. In order to hit management s ambitious guidance for 500,000 deliveries this year, the electric-car maker will need to demonstrate substantial sequential and year-over-year growth in vehicle deliveries.
