▼ + stars: | 2024-02-13 | by ( Brandon Gomez | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Brewer Molson Coors said on Tuesday that it expects to maintain its market share gains in the year ahead. Those revenue gains were in large part tied to consumers migrating away from AB InBev 's Bud Light products after boycotts began last April. It was a return to profit for Molson Coors from a loss a year ago. Ariel Investments, which has invested in Molson Coors since 2018, also remains confident in the stock's performance. "The core brands were growing dollar share even before the Bud Light controversy," said Tim Fidler, Ariel Investments' portfolio manager.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Burt Young, the Oscar-nominated actor who played Paulie, the rough-hewn, mumbling-and-grumbling best friend, corner-man and brother-in-law to Sylvester Stallone in the “Rocky” franchise, has died. Young had roles in acclaimed films and television shows including “Chinatown,” “Once Upon a Time in America" and “The Sopranos.”But he was always best known for playing Paulie Pennino in six “Rocky” movies. The short, paunchy, balding Young was the sort of actor who always seemed to play middle-aged no matter his age. It won three, including best picture. In 1985's “Rocky IV” he reprograms a robot Rocky gives him into a sexy-voiced servant who dotes on him.

Zafar turned to his microscope – a canonically beloved tool in pathology that the doctors rely on to help make their diagnoses.

When a glass slide is prepared and fixed under the microscope, the AI is able to outline where cancer is located. For many smaller health systems, digitization is not yet worth the hassle.

Overall U.S. beer sales grew 1.8% in the 12 weeks ended May 20, according to data from research firms NielsenIQ and TD Cowen. Sam Adams maker Boston Beer, the largest craft beer maker, saw its market share slip last year. Bud Light and Coors Light, popular premium light beers, average about $7.40 for a 12-ounce six-pack, while Boston Beer's Sam Adams costs between $10 to $12. "The American consumer likes light beer," Molson Coors CEO Gavin Hattersley said at a conference in early June. "I think dynamics within the subsegment might change, but the overall consumption of light beer is not going to change materially."
