☆ Why so many Olympic hopefuls are running in all-black, unbranded gear
  + stars: | 2024-06-29 | by ( Justine Fisher | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Christopher Royster, left, and JT Smith, athletes who participate in Bandit Running's Unsponsored Project, at the 2024 Olympic trials in Eugene, Oregon. There's an army of unsponsored athletes commanding attention at the U.S. Track & Field Olympic Trials this year, decked out in all-black, logo-less gear. Unsponsored athletes in track and field would typically purchase their own apparel bearing the emblems of major brands, effectively providing free advertising for the companies. Instead, Bandit Running offers Olympic hopefuls the all-black kits and warmups — along with short-term endorsement deals. After winning a gold medal in the 2016 Rio Olympics and being sponsored by Nike for four years, Okolo, 30, is embracing the Unsponsored Project.

A dog looks out the window from a Tesla electric vehicle charging at a Tesla Supercharger location in Santa Monica, California on May 15, 2024. Last year, the U.S. EV leader received a rank of 257 problems per 100 vehicles, compared with 265 problems per 100 vehicles on average for EVs from traditional automakers. Across the broader industry, not just BEVs, Tesla has consistently ranked toward the bottom in initial quality since J.D. BEVs averaged 266 problems per 100 vehicles, 86 points higher than gas- and diesel-powered vehicles, which averaged 180 problems per 100 vehicles, according to the study. "It is not surprising that the introduction of new technology has challenged manufacturers to maintain vehicle quality," Hanley said.

The average American spends $16.26 out of pocket per prescription, according to the data. "Rising costs or rising prices are a big part of it, but it's really that with the combination of increased friction. On average, Americans pay 2 to 3 times more for prescription drugs than consumers in other developed countries, according to the White House. The Biden administration has taken several measures to lower out-of-pocket drug expenses. On Wednesday, the White House announced it would lower prices on 64 prescription drugs for some Medicare beneficiaries as a result of inflation penalties on drugmakers.
