Morgan Stanley is urging its super-rich clients to pull out of one of the market's hottest corners, and it's a warning shot to the US economy

The consumer-discretionary sector is the stock market's best performer of the last decade — but now it's time to consider taking profits, says Morgan Stanley Wealth Management.

The sector's chart-topping performance on the S&P 500 is just one reason for the recommendation offered by Lisa Shalett, the head of investment and portfolio strategies, in a note on Monday.

Companies in the sector range from automakers to apparel makers and casinos, which make goods and services that consumers splurge on. Consumer spending contributes to more than two-thirds of the economy's growth.

And so, Shalett's sector call further makes the case that the backbone of the $20 trillion-plus US economy could be headed for a slowdown.

Google responds to Trump's claim that the company is 'suppressing the voices of conservatives and hiding information'

Google has responded to two tweetsPresident Donald Trump sent early Tuesday accusing the companyof intentionally "silencing the voices of conservatives and hiding information and news that is good" with its search results.

"Search is not used to set a political agenda, and we don't bias our results toward any political ideology," Google told Business Insider in a statement, adding that it prioritized relevancy and quality.

Trump, appearing to cite a figure froman unscientific study carried out by a conservative opinion blog, claimed that 96% of Google's search results of his name were "from National Left-Wing Media," calling it a "very serious situation" that "will be addressed." He did not explain how the government might act on the issue.
