e Department of Veterans Affairs announced plans last week to accelerate the rollout of its embattled electronic health records system. Lawmakers, meanwhile, continue to call for oversight despite concerns over the future of the modernization program. The VA added nine new medical facilities in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and Alaska to the deployment schedule, along with four sites in Michigan that will launch in 2026 after the program expansion has largely been on hold since April 2023, when the agency acknowledged glitches in the system had contributed to at least four veterans’ deaths and “catastrophic harm” to others.

After a roller coaster day, the Dow closed lower by 349 points, or 0.91%. The broader S&P 500 fell 0.23%. The NASDAQ Composite was 0.1% higher after fluctuating between gains and losses. Wall Street’s fear gauge, the CBOE Volatility Index, or VIX, on Monday closed at the highest level since the Covid pandemic as investors fretted over the market’s next move. The VIX surpassed an intraday level of 50 points midday Monday, a rare level associated with extreme volatility.
