1. Government shutdown continues: The U.S. government shutdown enters its third day on Monday, with the Senate scheduled to vote at noon on a bill to reopen it for three weeks. However, it is still unclear whether the proposal will garner enough support from Democrats to pass. While a brief shutdown won't have a significant economic impact, a prolonged disruption to government services could result in a hit. The last government shutdown -- which lasted more than two weeks in October 2013 -- cost an estimated $20 billion, according to an estimate from Moody's Analytics.
