A Russian commander was removed after outraged military bloggers amplified his failed leadership. AdvertisementAdvertisementA Russian commander was ousted following a wave of outrage at his poor leadership from military bloggers, the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) reports. Russian military bloggers amplified the "significant losses due to inadequate artillery support and poor leadership in the Kherson direction," triggering the removal of the disgraced commander claimed the bloggers, per the ISW. A Russian brigade officially has at least 2,000 soldiers, and the commander holds the rank of colonel. The ISW wrote that the removal of the commander suggests that Russian ultranationalist outrage may still have influence over Russian military command despite an overall decline following the rebellion by Wagner mercenaries in June.

Benoit Tessier | ReutersCava GroupFirst on this week's list is the Mediterranean restaurant chain Cava (CAVA), which made a blockbuster public debut last month. The rally in CAVA shares since its initial public offering reflects investors' optimism about the fast-casual restaurant chain's growth prospects. Stifel analyst Chris O'Cull initiated a buy rating on Cava with a price target of $48. The analyst estimates annual revenue growth of 20% during the next four years, driven by at least 15% growth in Cava's footprint. The survey revealed that Services' average revenue per user (ARPU) in the U.S. is $110, which is much higher than Daryanani's global estimate of $81.
