☆ NY Republican in critical House race spent huge sums of campaign cash on steakhouses, booze, a foreign hostel and home supply materials

The campaign also spent a little more than $43,000 on Ubers since August 2022. D’Esposito campaign spokesman Matt Capp called the five-figure Uber charge “a filing error which will be corrected and does not represent an Uber invoice.”In one eyebrow-raising section of the filings, the campaign spent nearly $600 for a hostel in Edinburgh, Scotland, on Memorial Day this year. But there is no clear connection between much of the D’Esposito campaign’s spending at those establishments and official campaign fundraising events. Santos was expelled from Congress in December of last year and recently pled guilty to aggravated identity theft and wire fraud charges stemming from, among other things, misusing campaign funds during his 2022 midterm campaign. The FEC, an agency charged with enforcing campaign finance laws, keeps records of donor contributions and spending by campaigns and outside political groups.

Expensive Big Mac meals and fears of surge pricing at grocery stores have put food chains and consumer product companies in politicians' crosshairs. Walmart , McDonald's and Kroger are just a few of the companies that have found themselves in the debate over high inflation in the 2024 election. Democrats — particularly those like Casey who are trying to win races in competitive swing states — are trying to capitalize on frustration against companies over inflation. (The source of the data is unclear, and McDonald's has denied that its average prices have risen that much.)

Britain's Ocado lifted its annual guidance on Tuesday, citing an improvement in the profitability of its warehouse technology business, reassuring investors and sending its shares up by 18%. The group runs an online grocer in Britain through a joint venture with Marks & Spencer and also sells its cutting-edge warehouse technology to retailers around the world. Citi analysts said the share price reaction was to be expected given the upgrades to technology and cash expectations, plus weakness in recent days. It also forecast underlying cash flow would improve by 150 million pounds, ahead of a previous expectation of 100 million pounds, and said liquidity remains strong at 1.05 billion pounds. First-half underlying earnings, or adjusted EBITDA, Ocado's preferred measure, was 71.2 million pounds, up from 16.6 million pounds.

☆ Walmart is opening five automated distribution centers as it tries to keep its grocery dominance

Walmart said Wednesday that it will open five automated distribution centers for fresh food across the country, as the retailer chases efficiency and its online grocery business grows. The discounter's new facilities are roughly 700,000 square feet on average. Walmart is the nation's largest grocer, but it is modernizing its supply chain to keep up with customers who are increasingly picking up orders in the parking lot or getting groceries delivered to their doors. The retailer has been automating supply chain facilities across the country, including distribution centers that handle shelf-stable items and fulfillment centers that help pack and ship online orders. Walmart has said that by early 2026, about two-thirds of its stores will be serviced by some kind of automation and roughly 55% of fulfillment center volume will move through automated facilities.
