GMFor GM, investors balked at pullbacks in growth businesses, waning upside during the second half of the year, and fear that the automaker's earnings power has peaked, according to Wall Street analysts. Selling more EVs is one reason that GM, which has raised its annual financial guidance twice this year, expects the second half to underperform the first. The new Ford F-150 truck goes through the assembly line at the Ford Dearborn Plant on April 11, 2024 in Dearborn, Michigan.

☆ Homeowners insurance premiums rose 21% last year. Climate change is partly to blame, experts say
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-29 | by ( Genna Contino | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Anadolu | Anadolu | Getty ImagesConsumers preparing to renew their homeowners insurance policy may experience some unexpected sticker shock. Between May 2022 and May 2023, home insurance prices rose an average of 21% at renewal time, according to Policygenius. A rise in catastrophic severe weather events contributed to this jump, experts say, and the rate of price increases is not expected to slow. Insurance companies "are not in the business of giving you money just because you need it, and they are not in the business of doing the right thing just because it feels like the right thing," Klein said. Fewer and pricier insurance options can prove to be a significant barrier to homeownership, experts say, as most mortgages require insurance.

AdvertisementDespite a stunning run of four games in the second set in which Nadal showed flashes of his old self — and exploited the scar tissue he has inflicted on Djokovic over the years — the Serbian recovered to see out the second set. In the Wimbledon final earlier this month, Djokovic had suffered at the hands of Carlos Alcaraz with the same shot. Nadal missed his forehand wide after it ticked the net, and Djokovic had the advantage he would never come close to giving up.

Roland Garros, Paris CNN —After all these years, Rafael Nadal is still finding new ways to win matches on his favorite tennis court. The victory against two seasoned doubles players was by no means easy, likely a sign of the limited time that Nadal and Alcaraz have spent training and playing together. But it was nonetheless an entertaining introduction to tennis’ new favorite double act. Another break of serve followed two games later, which Alcaraz had engineered with a cross-court backhand, before Nadal was able to serve out for the match. And who can blame him when he’s still winning on his favorite court, all to the applause of thousands of fans?

When anti-tourism protesters started to fire water pistols at visitors in the Barcelona city center on July 6, a moment that gained international attention, Ramirez said he could “feel the resentment” in the air. Frankly, I think it worked,” Ramirez said, reflecting on the ability of the protests to dissuade tourists from visiting the city. Jaime Reina/AFP/Getty ImagesIt’s not just housing issues that have generated a backlash against tourists, Ramirez said, adding that the disrespectful behavior of some has also played a part.

DETROIT – Ford Motor is leading a decline in major U.S. automotive stocks this week amid disappointing results and investor skepticism around future performance. Shares of Ford were off by more than 17% in early trading Thursday – on pace for their worst decline since 2009 – after missing Wall Street's bottom-line earnings expectations due to warranty problems, a reoccurring issue with the company. Shares of General Motors and Stellantis were notably off as well after reporting their results this week. Shares of Tesla , which reported results Tuesday afternoon, were up slightly Thursday after their largest daily decline since 2020 on Wednesday. GM, down roughly 7% this week, outperformed Wall Street's expectations for the second quarter and increased its guidance for the year.

Joe Biden’s decision to end his re-election campaign is being hailed as an act of great patriotism, of putting the national interest over individual political fortunes. Patriotism and ambition need not stand opposed; they can and should come together, as they so often do among the men and women who seek power or who seek to retain it. It is no disrespect to Joe Biden to recall that before finally deciding to end his re-election campaign, he tried hard to avoid doing so. “I believe my record as president, my leadership in the world, my vision for America’s future, all merited a second term,” he said in his Oval Office address. Only when the polling and the money started going wrong did he yield to what now seems inevitable.

Borges’ victory in his maiden ATP Tour final – against Nadal on clay, no less – lifts him to a career high of No. 161, was playing in his first final since the 2022 French Open, but two mammoth three-set victories in the previous two rounds had perhaps taken their toll on the 38-year-old. However, Nadal revealed after losing in the first round of the French Open that he is open to continuing his career should his body continue to improve.

Trump’s social-media posts and interviews since the shooting have stressed the need for national unity, but unity was not his first impulse. In the canon of Trump books and speeches, “fight” is a constant byword, but it has meant radically different things in different contexts. In scripted moments meant to convey suitably presidential sensibilities, Trump is fighting for others — whether the American people or those the nation has forgotten. In moments of political or legal crisis, when Trump feels besieged, his call to “fight” becomes personal. It is not a fight for others, but a battle for himself, one in which the people are enlisted in Trump’s wars, persuaded that his causes are their own.
