Stop & Shop spokesperson Caroline Medeiros said that despite the limited number of products, Stop & Shop stores and pharmacies are still open and operating as the chain works to restock its shelves and anticipate item availability. “At my personal Stop & Shop, I noticed that there wasn’t a lot of chicken, ground turkey. A user showed pictures on a Facebook from a Stop & Shop in Pittsfield, Massachusetts with rows of empty shelves and wrote “Avoid Stop and Shop… their shelves are empty.” A user on TikTok posted a video with over 40 thousand views of the empty shelves in a Stop & Shop in South Boston. Many in the comments of both posts said they had been confronted with similar scenes at other Stop & Shop locations. “Stop & Shop is well stocked with turkeys and hams for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, along with staples like potatoes, gravy, and stuffing,” she said.

The big box retailer posted an earnings and revenue beat on Tuesday, impressing Wall Street and sending the stock to a new 52-week high, up 3% by the close. Walmart highlighted growth in its e-commerce segment and advertising business as factors that contributed to its success. But to Cramer, the main reason Walmart's quarter impressed Wall Street is its affordable merchandise and price reductions. Walmart and peer retailers that focus on value — like Amazon and Costco — are what consumers want right now, and these retailers are some of the only ones that can afford large price rollbacks, he added. "There's something going on underneath, something that's hurting every department store, every dollar store, every mall store," Cramer said.

The United States imposed sanctions on Monday on an Israeli settler group it accused of helping perpetrate violence in the occupied West Bank, which has seen a rise in settler attacks on Palestinians. The sanctions also target a subsidiary of Amana called Binyanei Bar Amana, described by Treasury as a company that builds and sell homes in Israeli settlements and settler outposts. Israel has settled the West Bank since capturing it during the 1967 Middle East war. Israel views the West Bank as the biblical Judea and Samaria, and the settlers cite biblical ties to the land. Last week, nearly 90 U.S. lawmakers urged Biden to impose sanctions on members of members of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government over anti-Palestinian violence in the West Bank.

Trump's transition team aims to kill Biden EV tax credit: Reuters

Win Mcnamee | Getty Images News | Getty ImagesPresident-elect Donald Trump's transition team is planning to kill the $7,500 consumer tax credit for electric-vehicle purchases as part of broader tax-reform legislation, two sources with direct knowledge of the matter told Reuters. Ending the tax credit could have grave implications for an already stalling U.S. EV transition. Representatives with the Trump transition and Tesla did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The alliance last month in an Oct. 15 letter urged Congress to retain the EV tax credits, calling them "critical to cementing the U.S. as a global leader in the future of automotive technology and manufacturing." Trump's energy transition team views the consumer EV credit as an easy target, believing that eliminating it would get broad consensus in a Republican-controlled Congress as part of a larger tax-reform bill.

Reuters —Europe’s biggest meal delivery firm, Just Eat Takeaway, said on Wednesday it had struck a deal to sell its U.S. unit Grubhub to Wonder for $650 million, sending its shares soaring 20% in early trading. “Just Eat Takeaway is at last putting an end to its disastrous U.S. journey,” Bryan Garnier analyst Clement Genelot said, noting the group had destroyed more than $7 billion in shareholder value there. Grubhub’s enterprise value of $650 million includes $500 million of senior notes and $150 million cash, Wonder said in a statement. Just Eat CEO Jitse Groen had in February said the M&A environment was not easy in the U.S., where fee caps cost the group some $100 million per year. JPMorgan said in a note it had argued for an about $1.2 billion valuation for Grubhub in the past, but the market would view the long-awaited deal as positive even at a lower valuation.

The Federal Aviation Administration on Tuesday banned U.S. civilian flights to and from Haiti for 30 days after a Spirit Airlines airplane was struck by gunfire trying to land in Port-au-Prince a day earlier. The FAA's ban also prohibits U.S. flights from traveling under 10,000 feet in Haiti's airspace. On Monday, Spirit Airlines Flight 951 from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, diverted to Santiago in the Dominican Republic at around 11:30 a.m. after it was damaged by gunfire, the airline said. Spirit said one flight attendant on board "reported minor injuries" and that no passenger injuries were reported. JetBlue Airways and American Airlines have also canceled flights to the Haitian capital.

The estate of collapsed crypto exchange FTX has filed a suit against Binance and its former CEO Changpeng Zhao in an effort to wrest back at least $1.76 billion, citing a "fraudulent" share deal. The FTX estate alleges that the share repurchase was funded by FTX's Alameda Research division through a combination of the company's and Binance's exchange tokens, as well as Binance's dollar-pegged stablecoin. Binance denies the allegations, saying in an emailed statement: "The claims are meritless, and we will vigorously defend ourselves." That same month, Binance's Zhao pleaded guilty to charges of violating the Bank Secrecy Act for failing to put in motion an effective anti-money laundering program and for breaching U.S. economic sanctions. In another post cited, he said: "As part of Binance's exit from FTX equity last year, Binance received roughly $2.1 billion USD equivalent in cash (BUSD and FTT).

Beata Zawrzel | Nurphoto | Getty ImagesWith Americans heading to the polls on Election Day, social media companies like Meta , TikTok, X and YouTube are under intense pressure to handle what's expected to be a flood of disinformation, heightened by the rise of artificial intelligence. The video amassed hundreds of thousands of views within hours after it was posted on Elon Musk's social media platform X. And TikTok failed to catch ads containing false election information despite its ban on political advertising, according to an October report from Global Witness. On Facebook and Instagram, Meta said it's adding fact-check labels to election content that's been debunked. In sharing dozens of posts a day on X, Musk regularly amplifies false election information to his more than 200 million followers.

The U.S. dollar was little changed against other global currencies on Tuesday evening as voting began to wind down in the presidential election. The foreign exchange market could be one of the first areas of the financial system to react as election results roll in. Traders generally expect that a strong night for former President Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress could push the greenback higher. The dollar has generally strengthened in the runup to Election Day. The ICE U.S. Dollar Index rose more than 3% in October, though it has dipped in recent days.

China's hot electric vehicle market has been gaining investor interest, and one analyst sees potential for the sector to grow further. "China's EV market is the largest in the world and also delivers fast growth," Vincent Sun, senior equity analyst at Morningstar said. This translates to a penetration rate of 49% of China's auto market in September. Sales of these vehicles in China's domestic market were up 66% year-on-year to 72,000 in September . Hsu said BYD and Tesla have a "good separation" because they are not seen as competitors in the Chinese market.

Some customers think the coffee chain has drifted too far from its core, according to Niccol. He's betting that more personal touches — including bringing back Sharpies to write customer names or messages on cups — will bring customers back to cafes. Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol said the coffee chain plans to buy roughly 200,000 Sharpie markers as part of his plan to take the coffee chain back to its roots. For decades, Starbucks positioned itself as a place to linger, but the company has lost that sheen over the years. Shares of Starbucks have risen roughly 1% this year, trailing the S&P 500's gains of 22%.

SHANGHAI — ByteDance founder Zhang Yiming is China’s richest person, with personal wealth of $49.3 billion, an annual rich list showed Tuesday, although counterparts in real estate and renewables have fared less well. Zhang, 41, who stepped down in 2021 as chief executive of ByteDance, the Beijing-based parent company of TikTok, becomes the 18th individual to be crowned China’s richest person in the 26 years since the Hurun China Rich List was first published. He overtook bottled water magnate Zhong Shanshan, who slipped to second place as his fortune dropped 24%, to $47.9 billion. Despite a legal battle over its U.S. assets, ByteDance’s global revenue grew 30% last year to $110 billion, Hurun said, helping to propel Zhang’s personal fortune. The number of billionaires on the list dropped by 142 to 753, shrinking more than a third from its 2021 peak.

Starbucks will stop charging extra for dairy substitutes
  + stars: | 2024-10-30 | by ( Amelia Lucas | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Starbucks said Wednesday that it will remove the surcharge for dairy substitutes, saving some U.S. customers more than 10% on their drinks. Substituting a nondairy milk is the second-most requested customization from customers, trailing only adding a shot of espresso, according to Starbucks. Currently, Starbucks customers can already add up to 4 ounces of a dairy substitute at no extra charge to hot or iced brewed coffee or tea, cold brew and Americano drinks. Starbucks first started serving nondairy milk in 1997, when it added soy milk to menus. In March, three lactose-intolerant women sued Starbucks in federal court, alleging that the surcharge discriminated against customers with allergies.

Several analysts maintained their buy ratings ahead of the results and expect AI-driven gains to appear in its search and YouTube segments. Still, the consensus revenue estimate implies Alphabet could post its slowest year-over-year growth since the third quarter of 2023 . Analysts polled by LSEG expect Alphabet to earn $1.85 per share on $86.3 billion in revenue, implying year-over-year earnings and revenue growth of 19.1% and 12.5%, respectively. Like Sheridan, Black expects Alphabet's AI enhancements to support search and YouTube growth, as AI drives efficiency for advertisers. "While advertisers may express some concerns around consumer sentiment, GOOG Search remains a 'utility-like' component of advertiser budgets," he said.

McDonald's executives say E. coli outbreak is 'behind us'
  + stars: | 2024-10-29 | by ( Amelia Lucas | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
A week after health authorities publicly linked a deadly E. coli outbreak to McDonald's Quarter Pounder burgers, the company's CEO, Chris Kempczinski, told investors that the situation is now behind them. On Sunday, McDonald's said Quarter Pounder burgers would return to the roughly 900 restaurants where the company had pulled the menu item following the outbreak. McDonald's has stopped sourcing onions from the supplier indefinitely and will return the Quarter Pounder to menus sans slivered onions. As of Friday, 75 health cases across 13 states have been tied to the outbreak, including one death of an older adult. At least three lawsuits have already been filed against McDonald's by victims of the outbreak.

McDonald's on Tuesday reported quarterly earnings and revenue that beat analysts' expectations as its U.S. restaurants reversed last quarter's same-store sales decline. It's the second straight quarter that the company's same-store sales have fallen. U.S. same-store sales rose 0.3%, reversing last quarter's same-store sales declines but still slightly weaker than the 0.5% increase predicted by StreetAccount estimates. The company's two international divisions both reported steeper declines in same-store sales compared with the prior quarter. The international developmental licensed markets division reported same-store sales declines of 3.5%, driven by weak demand in the Middle East and China.

A sign is posted in front of a Taco Bell restaurant in Richmond, California, on May 1, 2024. Yum Brands has pulled onions from some Taco Bell, KFC and Pizza Hut locations following an E. coli outbreak tied to McDonald's. "As we continue to monitor the recently reported E. coli outbreak, and out of an abundance of caution, we have proactively removed fresh onions from select Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and KFC restaurants," a Yum Brands spokesperson said in a statement to CNBC. U.S. Foods does not distribute onions for McDonald's restaurants, and the burger chain has not publicly named Taylor Farms as a supplier. In response to the outbreak, McDonald's has pulled Quarter Pounders from roughly a fifth of its U.S. restaurants.
