CNN —Martha Stewart may be hot in the kitchen, but she’s not looking to replicate that on a dating reality show. Asked if she would date a man with as many tattoos as “SNL” alum Pete Davidson, Stewart waved the green flag. But what about dating Davidson himself? “He’s dated so many women,” Stewart said. And he’s sort of cute.”Stewart was married to Andrew “Andy” Stewart from 1961 to 1990, with whom she shares a daughter.

☆ Abercrombie’s worst nightmare is back. But its customers have moved on

“We are a positive, inclusive brand, with a nice sensibility, very different from what they encountered in the past,” Fran Horowitz, now Abercrombie’s CEO, said in 2016. Today, Abercrombie’s stores are lighter than they once were and its clothes are looser. Abercrombie’s sales have grown and its stock has increased more than 400% since Jeffries stepped down as CEO. But retail analysts say that Abercrombie’s brand won’t be hurt by the indictment because of how much separation Abercrombie has been able to create from its former CEO. Older Abercrombie customers who remember the brand’s sexualized marketing have accepted Abercrombie’s rebrand, while a new generation of customers are too young to remember the old era.

☆ Spotify is ready to follow Netflix and be the next breakout streaming stock, according to the charts
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-22 | by ( Todd Gordon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

The stock is consolidating just below all-time highs and if Netflix's move after earnings is any indication, I think SPOT should punch through to new all-time highs. We're currently trading at $386, just below the all-time highs of $387 set back in 2021. The earnings trajectory for this company has been insane: 2022 EPS ($3.09) 2023 EPS ($2.95) 2024 EPS +$6.37 2025 EPS +$9.06 (est.) Netflix beat expectations and broke to new all-time highs led by new subs, 50% of which are coming from an ad tier. Meta is also in the communication sector sitting close to new all-time highs like NFLX, so the trend for this group remains firmly higher.

☆ Behind CNN’s investigation on deceptive political fundraising that costs elderly donors their retirement savings
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-22 | by ( Zachary B. Wolf | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +13 min

CNN —A new CNN investigation documents how political campaigns have deceived the elderly and people with dementia with badgering, personalized text messages and prechecking boxes for recurring donations. Read the report, which illustrates the aggressive text messaging and charts how recurring donations can add up to hundreds of thousands of dollars drained from retirement savings. The team spent a significant chunk of that time gathering and reviewing the stories of elderly donors from a variety of sources: public records, complaints filed with government agencies, lawsuits and cold-calling donors. RAPPARD: Experts we spoke to told us that elderly donors are the backbone of grassroots fundraising efforts. It became clear to us throughout our reporting process the kind of effect these tactics were having on elderly donors.

☆ Disney and Apple are breaking up over App Store fees
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-22 | by ( Peter Kafka | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +3 min

Disney is no longer letting new customers sign up for Hulu or Disney+ via Apple's App Store. Disney is now telling would-be customers to pay for subscriptions on Disney's own site, instead of on Apple's App Store — though people who've already started paying for either service via Apple can keep doing that. But the App Store split does represent a rift between two longtime partners, so it's definitely worth noting. Disney's rationale is clear here: When customers sign up for Disney subscription services via Apple, Apple takes up to 15% of the monthly fees those services generate. Just like Netflix in 2018, Disney has decided that the services Apple offers through its App Store — the ability to market to and bill a giant installed base — aren't worth giving up a meaningful chunk of revenue.

CNN —Suki Waterhouse can add prankster to her list of superlatives. During her call to Pattinson, Waterhouse tried tricking the “Batman” actor into thinking that she had received an offer to be the host of the Netflix reality dating show “Love is Blind.”“What an interesting turn of events,” Pattinson responded awkwardly. Earlier in the video, Waterhouse told a wild story to her father Norman Waterhouse about urgently needing foot surgery that would come at a price of $150,000 and require the cancelling of her tour. “I’m going to go into surgery in a couple of hours,” Waterhouse convincingly fibbed. When her exasperated father, who’s a real-life surgeon, offered a profanity-laced reaction as he tried to convince her to stop, Waterhouse broke character and fessed up.
