* Harvard will operate trade schools, Trump says * Trump administration had previously threatened to withhold federal funding (Updates with Trump quote in paragraph 2, background and details from paragraph 3 on) By Nandita Bose, Brad Brooks and Nate Raymond WASHINGTON, Sept 30 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that his administration had reached a deal with Harvard University after months of negotiations and that the school will pay $500 million. "Linda is finishing up the final details," Trump told reporters at an event in the Oval Office, referring to Education Secretary Linda McMahon. "And they'll be paying about $500 million and they'll be operating trade schools. They're going to be teaching people how to do AI and lots of other things, engines, lots of things." Harvard had no immediate comment on Trump's remarks. The Trump administration has threatened schools, universities and colleges with the withholding of federal funds over issues including pro-Palestinian protests against U.S. ally Israel's war in Gaza, climate initiatives, transgender policies, and diversity, equity and inclusion practices. Rights advocates have raised free speech, privacy and academic freedom concerns over the Trump administration's probes into universities. Trump has said that universities such as Harvard allowed displays of antisemitism during pro-Palestinian protests. Protesters, including some Jewish groups, say the government wrongly equates criticism of Israel's assault on Gaza and its occupation of Palestinian territories with antisemitism, and advocacy for Palestinian rights with support for extremism. The government has not announced probes into Islamophobia. Harvard task forces said in late April that the school's Jewish and Muslim students faced bigotry and abuse during the course of Israel's war in Gaza. The Trump administration has reached settlements with Columbia and Brown universities, with both agreeing to certain government demands. Harvard President Alan Garber has previously said that the various federal actions since Trump returned to office in January could strip the school of nearly $1 billion annually, forcing it to lay off staff and freeze hiring. In March, the Trump administration said it was reviewing $9 billion in federal contracts and grants awarded to Harvard. The administration then sent a letter to Harvard in April demanding that changes be made or over $2.3 billion in federal funds would be frozen. The administration has faced legal setbacks in its efforts.

Sept 30 (Reuters) – Spirit Airlines has negotiated funding of up to $475 million with existing bondholders to support normal business operations during its Chapter 11 restructuring, its parent company said on Tuesday. Spirit expects $200 million of the debtor-in-possession financing to be available immediately if the court approves. The next hearing is scheduled for October 10. The company has also got interim access to $120 million of liquidity, it said. In August, the U.S. no-frills pioneer filed for bankruptcy protection for the second time in a year after a previous reorganization failed to put it on firmer financial footing. Spirit said on Tuesday that it has agreed with aircraft lessor AerCap Holdings to reject leases on 27 aircraft. AerCap will pay Spirit $150 million as part of the deal. The agreement resolves their dispute over a deal covering 36 Airbus planes due for delivery between 2027 and 2028. The company also said it has got the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York's approval to reject 12 airport leases and 19 ground handling agreements. Last week, Sprit had said it's halting 40 routes. (Reporting by Aatreyee Dasgupta in Bengaluru; Editing by Sahal Muhammed)

(Adds comment, quarterly milestones, updates prices) * Shutdown could delay jobs report, muddying Fed policy path * Aussie up after RBA stands pat, cautious on inflation * Japanese yen may benefit from U.S. shutdown By Gertrude Chavez-Dreyfuss NEW YORK, Sept 30 (Reuters) – The dollar fell on Tuesday following softer-than-expected economic data, as investors awaited a likely U.S. government shutdown that could disrupt the release of the monthly nonfarm payrolls report this week. Government funding expires at midnight on Tuesday (0400 GMT) unless Republicans and Democrats agree to a last-minute interim deal. "The shutdown is pretty much well-priced in by the market," said Eugene Epstein, head of trading and structured products, North America, at Moneycorp in New Jersey. "The question is how long the shutdown is going to be – if it's a few days as the market seems to be expecting at the moment, or is it actually going to prolong into something bigger?" U.S. President Donald Trump warned congressional Democrats on Tuesday that letting the federal government shut down at midnight would allow his administration to take "irreversible" actions including shutting down programs important to them. The U.S. Labor and Commerce departments said their statistics agencies would halt data releases in the event of a partial shutdown, including closely watched employment data for September. The payrolls report, due Friday, is crucial for Federal Reserve decision-making, so a delay could generate extra market volatility, as uncertainty among investors increases. "The logic is that a government shutdown could lead to a more dovish Fed," said Elias Haddad, senior markets strategist at Brown Brothers Harriman in a research note. "If a shutdown is brief, the Fed will ignore it. However, a prolonged shutdown (more than two weeks), increases the downside risk to growth and raises the likelihood of a more accommodative Fed." U.S. rate futures are pricing in 45 basis points of easing this year, most likely starting with 25 bp in October, with a strong chance of a second by year-end. In afternoon trading, the dollar fell 0.5% against the yen to 147.85, extending its decline after a mixed Bureau of Labor Statistics' Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, or JOLTS. On the quarter, the dollar rose 2.7%, the best quarterly gains since October 2024. The report showed U.S. job openings increased marginally in August while hiring declined, consistent with a softening labor market. Job openings, a measure of labor demand, rose 19,000 to 7.227 million by the last day of August. Hiring fell 114,000 to 5.126 million in August. Layoffs dropped 62,000 to 1.725 million. The dollar index slid 0.1% to 97.78, but ended the September quarter 1.1% higher, the biggest quarterly advance since January. The euro rose 0.1% to $1.1740, but was down 0.4%, the biggest quarterly loss since October 2024. The greenback was also weighed down by the Conference Board's consumer confidence index, which dropped 3.6 points to 94.2 this month. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast a drop to 96.0. For the yen, investors considered the Bank of Japan's summary of opinions from its September meeting, at which the possibility of a near-term rate hike was discussed. Markets show traders are placing a 60% chance on a December rate hike. Strategists at ING say selling dollar for yen could prove popular should the U.S. shutdown materialize. The dollar has risen 0.7% against the yen this month, but has fallen nearly 6% so far in 2025, as investors believe Japanese rates are likely to slowly rise, while those in the United States fall. "A lower dollar/yen may well remain the favourite trade during the shutdown. It lost 1.5% during the 2018-19 shutdown, and is currently trading 1% above its short-term fair value, according to our model," ING FX strategist Francesco Pesole said. The Australian dollar was last up 0.6% at US$0.6615 after the Reserve Bank of Australia, which has lowered borrowing costs three times this year, held rates steady as expected. The bank said recent data suggested third-quarter inflation might be higher than expected and the economic outlook remained uncertain. The Aussie was up 0.5% in the third quarter. In Europe, sterling shrugged off data that showed Britain's economic growth slowed to 0.3% between April and June this year, while the current account deficit grew in the three months to the end of June far more than expected to the equivalent of 3.8% of gross domestic product, up from 2.8% in the first quarter of 2025. The pound was last up 0.1% against the dollar at $1.3450 and a touch higher against the euro, which was down 0.2% at 87.28 pence. On the quarter, sterling dropped 2% versus the greenback, its worst quarterly showing since October last year.
