A fake campaign by environmental activists said Barbie-maker Mattel would go plastic-free by 2030. Outlets like People, The Washington Times , and Dow Jones Newswires reported that Mattel, the maker of Barbie and other toys like American Girl dolls and Hot Wheels, would go plastic-free by 2030. "With our plastic-free commitment, we denounce the empty promises of plastic recycling and take a bold step towards real ecological sustainability. By the end of the day, Yahoo News had the exclusive on the team behind the stunt : The Barbie Liberation Organization. The stunt did make me envision what seaweed Barbie would look like — but it's unclear if that's possible.

The poll found voters divided exactly in half over whether they intended to vote for Democrats or Republicans in the next Congressional election. While surveys now usually show Biden leading Trump, the president’s margin rarely exceeds his four-point margin of victory from 2020. Instead, the pandemic quickly evolved into just another front in the preexisting culture war lines of division between the parties. Yet Biden, as noted above, still maintained his 2020 lead over Trump in these seats of four percentage points. Surveys have found widespread concern among voters that Biden is too old to effectively handle the presidency.

Waves of crime and unrest have hit Haiti since the assassination of former President Jovenel Moise in 2021. His successor, Prime Minister Ariel Henry, has struggled to staunch the violence, which is also a major impediment to holding crucial long-delayed elections in the country. For months, Henry and the United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres have called for a military intervention in the country. The mission, if eventually approved by the UN Security Council, is hoped to “restore normalcy” to Haiti, Mutua said. The Bwa Kale movement successfully deterred some gang activity, according to Haitian monitoring group CARDH, with kidnappings slowing in early summer.

Carvana stock may be getting ahead of itself, according to Jefferies. Jefferies also slashed its price target to $30 from $55, implying downside of nearly 32% from Friday's close. CVNA YTD mountain Carvana has surged nearly 830% in 2023. However, analyst John Colantuoni said Wall Street seems to be overestimating how long Carvana can sustain its recent higher profitability metrics, which merely reflect "transitory tailwinds that will abate in the coming quarters." "We also envision an acceleration in Unit growth next year leading to inefficiencies that further negatively impact per unit economics."

The Federal Reserve has already raised its benchmark rate, the federal funds rate, to a range of 5 to 5.25 percent to rein in inflation, which is showing signs of slowing. The average credit card rate was 20.44 percent as of July 19, according to Bankrate.com, up from around 16 percent in March last year, when the Fed began its series of rate increases. The average rate on new car loans in June was 7.2 percent, up slightly from the start of the year, according to Edmunds.com. The average rate for an identical loan was 5 percent the same week in 2022. But yields on money market funds offered by brokerage firms are even more alluring because they have tracked the federal funds rate more closely.

Treasure — the latest boyband out of YG Entertainment — may be quite new to the K-pop scene, but its members already have big dreams. I want each and every member of the group to be an artist of their own," said co-leader Choi Hyun Suk, sharing his vision with The CNBC Conversation. His dream has always been to perform at the U.S. Superbowl halftime show, said the 24-year-old artist, the oldest member of the band. Treasure made its debut in 2020 while Covid-19 was spreading wildly around the world. It started out as a 12-member band but two of them left in November last year, leaving the boy band with just 10 members.

“You’d be foolish not to envision [winning], I’ve thought about winning majors for my whole entire life,” Harman told reporters. Merseyside-born and similarly chasing a long-awaited first major, Fleetwood has received vociferous crowd support all week – but home backing occasionally spilled over into rival attacking, according to his playing partner. He will pair with Harman when they tee off in as the final group Sunday at 2:15 p.m. BST (9:15 a.m. His eight-under 63 was the lowest round of the tournament so far and marked his career-low score at a major. Rory McIlroy will need a miraculous final day turnaround if he is to end his nine-year wait for a fifth major.

There was once an Instagram account called Sporty & Rich. But hobbies do not stay hobbies for long in the modern age. As her following grew, Ms. Oberg envisioned a print magazine. She envisioned a small line of merch: simple hoodies and tote bags and hats embroidered with “Sporty & Rich.” Then she began to envision a different life for herself — one of less hustle and more leisure. She moved to Los Angeles in 2018, and now her T-shirts are printed with phrases like “Health Is Wealth!” and “Drink More Water!”

Britain upgrades to also-ran in EV battery race

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is joining the global arms race to secure future industries, but he has a long way to go. Europe may have 25 so-called gigafactories, vast plants that turn raw materials such as lithium into battery packs, by 2025. While both Theresa May and Boris Johnson tried, they failed to win over big global players like Tesla (TSLA.O), Samsung or Northvolt, which preferred European sites. The UK leader can at least now claim he can attract global players. But Tata’s 40 GWh of new capacity brings Britain’s total to just over 50 GWh by 2026, after factoring in the plant operated by China’s Envision in Sunderland.

The good feeling she had when she walked into the first-floor commercial space in the three-story brownstone was equaled by the good feeling that hit her when she met the landlord, Grzegorz (Gregory) Pasternak. I love that about him.”Ms. Blat learned that Mr. Pasternak had owned the place, a designated landmark, for decades, as he walked her through 30 years of history. “I realized immediately after talking to her,” Mr. Pasternak said, “that the space fit her very well because it had a previous history of being artsy. The experience wasn’t like any other landlord experience I’ve had in New York. Usually all they want is your money and they don’t really care about what you’re doing,” she said, laughing.

Reconsidering the Staycation

I’ve always been skeptical of the staycation. So I was intrigued to discover, thanks to my colleague Catherine Pearson, that I have been staycationing all wrong. Evidently, my tendency to stumble into time off without a plan is unlikely to produce a restorative effect. This weekend, you could, for instance, seek out some vegan ice cream that doesn’t taste terrible. You could try running in a pool, which is easier on the joints but as effective as running on land.

Vondrousova became the first unseeded woman to win Wimbledon on Saturday, coming back in each set for a 6-4, 6-4 victory over 2022 runner-up Ons Jabeur in the final. Following the match, King greeted Vondrousova with a hug and told her: "First unseeded ever. 6 Jabeur, Vondrousova kept falling slightly behind. Another miscue gave Vondrousova a break point, and Jabeur gifted that with yet another shot into the net.

JPMorgan is gaining confidence in shares of Cava even after its 80% post- initial public offering run. CAVA YTD mountain Cava shares since going public "We agree with the market's implicit positive view on the medium/long term story of CAVA," he wrote in a Monday note. Key to Ivankoe's investment rationale is Cava's well-managed model and large end-market opportunities as a Mediterranean chain. A Mediterranean 'category killer' Other Wall Street firm's also initiated coverage of Cava with overweight and buy ratings. Elsewhere, Stifel's Chris O'Cull called Cava a "compelling restaurant growth investment" with a justified premium valuation given its "impressive unit-level economics" and expansion opportunities.

NVDA YTD mountain Nvidia YTD performance Nvidia shares have, of course, been a stellar performer so far this year due in large part to its AI dominance. To estimate Nvidia's AI revenue opportunity, Goldman broke it down into two computing categories: training and inference. Here's a chart that shows how Goldman sees Nvidia's AI revenue opportunities shaking out from calendar year 2023 through calendar 2025 in each category. To put Goldman's AI computing revenue estimates into perspective: Nvidia's entire companywide revenue over the past three fiscal years totaled $70.5 billion. Goldman's fresh look at the AI opportunity also served as the basis for boosted earnings estimates for Nvidia.

"We're keeping a particularly close eye on the current tensions between the U.S. and China," said Florent Menegaux, chief executive of French tyremaker Michelin. "When we see the impact that the IRA will have (on European companies), I think we haven't talked enough about it at this conference," a senior banker said. "There is a big risk that European companies will shift their investments (from Europe to the United States)." Some say the main concern is the time taken by European Union authorities to respond. "I understand the frustration, but when you look at the details of the extent to which the United States is subsidising its domestic industry, it is not greater than what the Europeans do themselves," Boushey said.

The justices have simply replaced Chevron’s rule of judicial deference with its polar opposite, a new rule that goes by the name of the major questions doctrine. But how to tell a major question from an ordinary one? The Heller decision in 2008 opened the Second Amendment door a crack, granting individuals the right to keep a handgun at home for self-defense. The question in the case is whether the Second Amendment allows the government to bar gun ownership by an individual under a restraining order for domestic violence. That the answer actually might be “no” — domestic violence wasn’t even a concept in the 18th century, when the Second Amendment was adopted — is too astonishing to contemplate.

But this terrace, which London interior designer Rebecca James was hired to transform, cried out for order. Step one: Organizing the dining area around a brazen focal point—a globed light fixture so large she freaked a little when she opened its box. She also imposed symmetry and restraint, limiting materials and patterns, a strategy that belies the magical atmosphere.
