I will defer to your comments below

and resolve this NO.

Not sure how to resolve this. The strike has been postponed til January. Should I resolve as No, since it has been postponed and is not currently in effect, or NA since they will resume in January? What do you all think?

@AGG The strike lasted 3 days and ended with a tentative deal and the promise of good faith negotiations. There might not be another strike in January. Where are you seeing this referred to as a postponement?

@AGG

"Members of the International Longshoremen's Association (ILA) walked out on Tuesday at 14 major ports along the east and Gulf coasts, halting container traffic from Maine to Texas.

The union says it has reached a tentative agreement on wages and will go back to work on Friday until 15 January, when they will return to the bargaining table to negotiate "all other outstanding issues".

They walked out on Tuesday and they'll walk back in on Friday.

They're talking about a second strike in January.

This should resolve No

@AGG the word used in the article is "suspended" not "postponed". They are making a threat of another strike in January and not a guarantee of the continuation of this strike.

I agree this can resolve No.
