Five decades ago, Peter Cancro was your average 14-year-old wrapping sandwiches after school at his local eatery, Mike's Subs. Today, he's the billionaire CEO of Jersey Mike's Subs — but he still gets his hands dirty every now and then. At age 17, the New Jersey native had worked at Mike's Subs for a few years when he discovered the owner was looking to sell. He still slices deli meats and gets face-time with employees "every time I'm in a store," he said at the conference. The ability to be personable is a green-flag trait that good bosses tend to share, workplace culture expert Bonnie Low-Kramen told CNBC Make It last year.

Cancro became the sole owner of Mike's Subs before even graduating from high school.

☆ One of Trump’s Treasury contenders hails from the most cutthroat private equity firm on Wall Street
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-22 | by ( Allison Morrow | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +7 min

The words “private equity” are almost poetic in their power to obfuscate in such a way that most people simply tune out when they hear them. But there’s a reason workers tend to have a negative association with private equity. Per Bloomberg, Apollo “built its name as the scrappiest private equity and distressed-debt investor on Wall Street by buying businesses and loading them up with debt that offered creditors meager protections in the face of default.”Historically, private equity deals were largely handled by big banks. Private equity firms now hold controlling stakes across an array of industries, including supermarkets, housing, health care, fashion, restaurants and vet clinics. And other efforts to force more transparency and accountability in private equity have similarly faced opposition.

The suits were brought by the Fair Housing Center of Central Indiana, an advocacy group serving residents of 24 counties in the state. Federal prosecutors have also alleged that tenant screening checks can be discriminatory. Fair Housing Center of Central Indiana“I sent them my expungement records, but I kept getting denied,” Williams recalled in a phone interview. TransUnion settled the suit without admitting or denying the allegations and paid $15 million, the largest amount recovered in a tenant screening matter, the FTC said. “We want safe communities where people can contribute, can build their lives, and that’s what fair housing laws are here to do.”

Soon, Trump’s ability to fix America’s affordability crisis will collide head-on with another, perhaps more prominent, campaign trail promise: Mass deportations. And perhaps no industry relies on undocumented workers more than the food and agriculture industries. “The only question is how high prices will go.”Zandi noted that food prices could also be pushed higher by another element of the Trump agenda: Massive tariffs. The Trump transition team did not respond to a request for comment about how mass deportations would impact food prices. The current immigration system does not allow for green cards for farm workers.

Several stocks could rise if market volatility scales back after Tuesday's U.S. presidential election, according to a Bank of America analysis. Stock market volatility climbed ahead of the election, with the Cboe Volatility Index , known as Wall Street's "fear gauge," crossing 23 on Thursday. But with the winner of the election decided, the VIX has eased to around 16 on Wednesday. To react to this scenario, Bank of America screened for several lower-quality stocks inversely correlated to the VIX that could see a pop in their share prices. Morgan Stanley revised its 2024-25 revenue estimates on NXP lower, expecting a period of stagnation in the automotive semiconductor market.
