▼ + stars: | 2024-04-09 | by ( Jordan Novet | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Google is trying to make cloud computing more affordable with a custom-built Arm -based server chip. With the new Arm-based chip, Google is playing catch-up with rivals such as Amazon and Microsoft, which have been employing a similar strategy for years. Google has used Arm-based server computers for internal purposes to run YouTube advertising, the BigTable and Spanner databases and the BigQuery data analytics tool. Arm chips, which are popular in smartphones, offer a shorter set of instructions than x86 chips, which are commonly found in PCs. Axion offers 30% better performance than the fastest general-purpose Arm-based virtual machines in the cloud and 50% better performance than than comparable VMs based on x86, Google said.

☆ Canada Goose to cut 17% of its corporate workforce, following string of retail layoffs
▼ + stars: | 2024-03-26 | by ( Gabrielle Fonrouge | In Gabrielle-Fonrouge | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Canada Goose said Tuesday that it will cut about 17% of its corporate workforce, following a string of other retailers that have laid off employees this year as consumers continue to pull back on discretionary spending. The cuts will affect staff at Canada Goose's corporate headquarters, which had about 915 employees as of April 2023, according to a securities filing. Between April 2021 and April 2023, Canada Goose nearly doubled the number of employees at its corporate head offices from 544 to 915 to support its "continued growth," the filing says. When releasing its holiday-quarter results, Canada Goose noted that its wholesale revenues were particularly weak, an ongoing dynamic for the company that many other retailers have felt. The layoffs at Canada Goose come after Nike, Macy's , Wayfair , Hasbro and Etsy all announced widespread layoffs over the past few months.

☆ Fast fashion is leaning into resale, but it may do little to reduce emissions, new study says

Fast-fashion retailers like Zara, Shein and H&M are using resale platforms to reduce their carbon footprints, but the programs are projected to do little to reduce emissions, a new study released Tuesday found. The study analyzed five brand archetypes, spanning fast fashion to premium apparel, and how reselling previously owned items could affect their overall carbon emissions between 2023 and 2040. It found that fast-fashion retailers, which create about 11.5 kilograms (25.3 pounds) of carbon dioxide for every item they make, will only reduce their emissions by 0.7% with resale programs. Outdoor brands, like Patagonia and the North Face, create about 12.5 kilograms of CO2 per item and could reduce emissions by 15.8%, according to the study. Ruben said it takes a lot of work for fast-fashion retailers to implement resale programs, but "you're not getting a lot of juice for the squeeze."

This type of "friendly fraud" might feel harmless and seem like a small drop in the bucket for powerful corporations. But taken together with more nefarious forms of fraud, it's costing retailers more than $100 billion per year, according to Riskified , which published a new study on the problem on Thursday. Riskified uses artificial intelligence and automation to fight fraud and boost revenue at major retailers including Wayfair , Peloton , Revolve and Canada Goose . For the study, it surveyed over 300 global companies with more than $500 million in total annual revenue. The firm found retail policy abuses, such as return fraud and using fake email addresses for promo codes, is rising for some retailers.

At Duke — as well as elite colleges that admit more low-income students — their graduation rate tends to be similar to the overall graduation rate.

Student-loan repayments will soon restart after a years-long pause. Consumers are expected to cut their shopping budgets, especially on apparel, as debt repayments loom. Brands at risk of a spending slowdown include Nike, Gap, and Shopify. The retailers most at risk include Crocs, Nike, Nordstrom, Canada Goose, and Victoria's Secret, the analysts found. "We believe this indicates student loan consumers will reduce spending on apparel in a big way when they have to start paying off their student loan debt."

Consumers will tighten their purse strings as federal student loan payments resume, and a slew of retail stocks could take a hit, UBS found. That lagging performance is expected to continue, especially since the debt ceiling legislation includes a provision that will end a pause on federal student loan payments by September, according to UBS analyst Jay Sole in a Sunday report. "Our new analysis of U.S. consumers with student loans suggests they are likely to disproportionately reduce spending on softgoods vs. other categories as they shift funds to paying down student debt," said Sole. For instance, nearly 37% of student loan consumers bought Nike products, compared with about 29% of all U.S. adults. About 62% of the consumers polled agreed with the statement, "My philosophy of spending is 'Live for today because tomorrow is so uncertain,'" the bank found.

However, shoppers in the United States are putting a pause to a post-pandemic splurge on high-end clothing and accessories, with companies including ultra-luxury fashion houses like LVMH (LVMH.PA) and Gucci owner Kering (PRTP.PA) seeing sagging demand. Canada Goose, popular for its bright-red parkas and pricey puffer jackets, saw U.S. revenues decline 4.5% in the reported quarter. Still, a 65.4% surge in Asia Pacific revenue, coupled with robust demand in Europe and Canada, helped the luxury winterwear maker beat expectations in its fourth-quarter results. Toronto, Ontario-based Canada Goose said it expects fiscal 2024 revenue between C$1.40 billion ($1.05 billion) and C$1.50 billion, while analysts were expecting C$1.33 billion.
