A combination of factors have made Berkshire's stock cheaper. Besides the recent pullback in share prices, Berkshire's various assets have increased in value drastically in recent years, compressing the multiple of the stock. Record buybacks Warren Buffett has supported Berkshire's stock through an aggressive and consistent buyback program over the past few years. Slowdown began In the first quarter, however, Berkshire's stock buybacks slowed down to $3.2 billion from $6.9 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021 as share prices skyrocketed to a record high.

The Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the landmark ruling that legalized abortion across the US. "For millions of women, Roe and Casey have been critical in giving them control of their bodies and their lives. President Joe Biden and Democratic leaders across the nation swiftly condemned the Supreme Court's ruling on Friday, while Republicans celebrated it.

However, legal experts say those are likely to fail, given the Supreme Court has handed off abortion decision-making to the states.
The Senate on Thursday confirmed Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court. Jackson makes history as the first Black woman to become a Supreme Court justice. The 51-year-old jurist currently serves on the second-most powerful court in the country, the US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit, often considered a launchpad to the Supreme Court. Biden appointed her to that seat a year ago, which, at the time, sparked rumors that she would make the shortlist if a Supreme Court vacancy arose. In her opening statement, she pledged to "support and defend the Constitution" if confirmed to the Supreme Court.
The two were enrolled in the same classes, both members of the Black Law Students Association, and lived in the same dormitory building. Black women in the legal world celebrated Jackson's Supreme Court nomination, a milestone that they said marks significant progress for their representation in the legal field, but also for the country as a whole. Installing judges of diverse backgrounds can better ensure the legal system is working equitably for all Americans, Black women in the legal field told Insider. "Now when I tell her, 'You could be a Supreme Court justice,' she can look at the Supreme Court and think, 'Yes, I could, there's someone there who looks like me.'" MoveOnORG activists call for the immediate confirmation of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson for the Supreme Court on February 25.

Bicicleta a fost construită de o mică firmă din Philadelphia care a avut la dispoziție doar câteva zile pentru a o realiza. Se spune că bugetul a fost de doar 1.500 de dolari, o treime din prețul minim pe care l-ar fi cerut firma. Bilenky a spus că a acceptat comanda pentru a crește notorietatea firmei sale. „Au fost o nebunie timp de 10 zile", a spus Bilenky.
