His book was an intense trip through a surreal night in neon-lit Tokyo, and I was completely captivated by the liminal vibe. Over the next few days, I started researching the Amazon Kindle as a convenient remedy for reading at night. AdvertisementI went on a binge read and was easily going through one book every two to three days with the Kindle. And it's not just me — a 2014 study found that Kindle readers absorb less than on paper, and a 2019 study found that Kindle readers performed worse when measuring chronology and temporality. I ultimately came to the conclusion that the Kindle created too much detachment for me, so it had to go.

Apple's overall smartphone shipments fell 2.2% year-on-year in 2023, while the overall market fell 5%, IDC said. China's smartphone market has been hit because of an uncertain economic environment in the country and weak consumer spending. In 2023, Honor, a spin-off from Chinese company Huawei, held the second spot with 16.8% market share, followed by Vivo, Huawei and then Oppo. Another market research firm called Counterpoint Research also came out with China numbers on Thursday. Counterpoint said it expects the China market to record low single-digit year-on-year growth in 2024, the first year of growth since 2018.

"When you see the news of a Wall Street employee or any highly paid professional dying this way, it obviously wakes you up." Wall Street is all about relationships, which often means spending big money to show people a good time. "That's been the Wall Street playbook for many, many years, and I don't think it has changed."

US singer Tony Bennett (Anthony Dominick Benedetto) performs on stage during an invitation only concert at the newly opened Encore Boston Harbor Casino in Everett, Massachusetts on August 8, 2019. "No country has given the world such great music," Bennett said in a 2015 interview with Downbeat Magazine. The evening's performance resulted in the album, "Tony Bennett: MTV Unplugged," which won two Grammys, including album of the year. Bennett would win Grammys for his tributes to female vocalists ("Here's to the Ladies"), Billie Holiday ("Tony Bennett on Holiday"), and Duke Ellington ("Bennett Sings Ellington — Hot & Cool"). He also won two Emmy Awards — for "Tony Bennett Live By Request: A Valentine Special" (1996) and "Tony Bennett: An American Classic" (2007).

The European Commission’s headquarters in Brussels. Photo: James Arthur Gekiere/Zuma PressThe European Union is considering sanctioning eight Chinese companies over Russia’s war in Ukraine, diplomats said, with the bloc looking to target firms they believe have provided Moscow electronic items, including semiconductors, that can be used for military purposes. The proposed listings are part of an 11th package of sanctions against Russia over its invasion. The new measures center on efforts to prevent the circumvention of Western sanctions by Russia and its military, a central plank in the effort by European and U.S. policy makers to weaken Russia’s economy and crimp the revenue the Kremlin has to continue its war effort.
Once inside he will sit on the Coronation Chair, which is more than 700 years old and will temporarily house a block of Scottish sandstone known as the Stone of Destiny. He will put on, at some point, a 200-year-old cloak that is woven from gold cloth, embroidered with roses, thistles and shamrocks and lined with red silk. Britain’s monarchy and the country’s past are inextricably linked, and a coronation is an opportunity for the institution to nod at history and hope that history nods back. A successful coronation telegraphs to the world — and reflects back to as many Britons as possible — a version of who we’d like to think we are. The problem is that this coronation is arriving at a time when it’s not exactly clear what that is.
A four-bedroom, two-bathroom home in Syracuse, New York, is on the market for a lowly $4,000. But the house comes with water damage and will require "major renovation," according to the listing. A potential buyer will need to show proof of $140,000 in funds to support renovations. Listed for a mere $4,000, the 128-year-old yellow home is located a 5-minute drive from the Syracuse University campus. Built in 1894, the house is as old as the first Coca-Cola bottles and the American painter Norman Rockwell.
Tesla employees passed around videos from customers' cars, according to Reuters.

Tesla employees shared personal videos from customers' cars on an internal messaging system, according to the report. A former Tesla Autopilot employee confirmed to Insider that workers were not only able to view personal videos but were also sharing them among each other. Reuters reported that Tesla employees shared videos of car crashes, road-rage incidents, and some more embarrassing moments.
A job post from IT firm Arthur Grand Technologies went viral for specifying white candidates only. The firm later edited its apology to say an ex-employee published the job post without authorization. Arthur Grand Technologies, HTC Global, and Berkshire Hathaway did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Like Trump, Bush has experienced what it's like to watch a younger man overshadow him, a man he worked hard to support. Bush and Rubio were allies in Florida government, and Rubio was widely viewed as a Bush protége. There is nobody who can even come close to generating the excitement and enthusiasm as President Trump has and will do in 2024." In the end, Trump branding Bush as "low energy" wasn't the only thing standing between Bush and the nomination. "DeSantis is like the one person who has gotten more out of Trump than Trump has gotten out of them."
But the economy may be fine with higher inflation. The 2% inflation target has been repeated so often by Fed officials and central bankers worldwide that it seems absolutely crucial to a healthy economy. But "the 2% inflation target, it's relatively arbitrary," said Josh Bivens, director of research at the Economic Policy Institute. In 1991, Canada announced its inflation target; the United Kingdom followed a year later. But if the 2% target is arbitrary, it implies that the economy could function normally at a higher level of inflation.

The 2% inflation target is key to the Federal Reserve's vision for stable prices in the U.S. economy, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. But, "the 2% inflation target, it's relatively arbitrary," Josh Bivens, director of research at the Economic Policy Institute, told CNBC. "We led the way in inflation targeting," Arthur Grimes, professor of wellbeing and public policy at Victoria University, told CNBC. Canada announced its inflation target in 1991, and the United Kingdom followed suit in 1992. Then, Sweden and Finland declared inflation targets in 1993, according to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
Since it's arrival in 1990, the 2% inflation target phenomenon has sailed from Wellington around the globe to become the accepted norm among central banks, large and small, for grounding public expectations for what inflation ought to be. The adoption of the inflation target was followed by aggressive monetary tightening, with 90-day rates climbing to 15% in 1990. A year later, inflation had fallen to 2% and New Zealanders' inflation expectations adjusted quickly to the new paradigm. Initially there was debate about whether interest rates or money supply should be the target, but it was decided it was better to target the ultimate goal: inflation. "They did all the hard work and I just got all the glory and the title of being the most despised man in New Zealand," Douglas said.
As we saw from Starbucks (SBUX), Humana (HUM) and Danaher (DHR) this week, companies are still investing in the future despite the difficult macroeconomic environment. Conferences will continue next week and within the portfolio we look forward to hearing from Nvidia (NVDA), Salesforce (CRM) and Qualcomm (QCOM). On Thursday, initial jobless claims for the week ending Sept. 10 came in at 213,000, a decrease of 5,000 from the prior week and below expectations of 227,000.

Prinţul consort Philip, Duce de Edinburgh, soţul Reginei Elisabeta a Marii Britanii a murit la vârsta de 99 de ani, informează Casa regală a Marii Britanii. Atunci când prinţul Philip avea vârsta de 18 ani, unchiul lui, regele Greciei, a fost obligat să abdice, iar tatăl lui a fost expulzat din ţară, după Războiul greco-turc. Alături de părinţii şi cele patru surori ale lui, Philip a fugit din Grecia la bordul unui vas al armatei britanice. În 2011, pentru a sărbători momentul în care soţul ei a împlinit vârsta de 90 de ani, regina Elisabeta a II-a a acordat titlul de Lord Mare Amiral al Marinei Regale. De atunci, el a continuat totuşi să o însoţească pe regina Elisabeta a II-a la aumite evenimente oficiale.
