▼ + stars: | 2024-11-08 | by ( Julie Coleman | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

CNBC's Jim Cramer on Friday identified what to look out for next week on Wall Street, highlighting earnings from Home Depot , Disney and new consumer price index data from the Labor Department. Cramer also reflected on the Trump-fueled market rally over the past few days, saying there are likely more gains to come. Tuesday has more action, with earnings from Home Depot, Shopify , Tyson Foods and Spotify . Because Tyson Foods is a major meat seller, Cramer said investors can learn a lot about grocery pricing from the company's earnings commentary. Cramer added that some believe there's weak demand in the semiconductor capital equipment sector, but he said it's possible an earnings report from Applied Materials could "change that dynamic."

Andrew Yeung, a former Google and Meta lead, goes on coffee chats three to five times a week. I spent a few years as a product lead at Google and a business operations lead at Meta before leaving to build a 7-figure business and invest in over 20 early-stage companies. Most of my business partnerships, clients, and — dare I say — friendships started with a coffee chat. Once I have clarity, I use my goal outcome to shape three discussion topics or broad questions for the conversation.

That book led to a short film adaptation, an upcoming psychological thriller about the workplace starring "The Proud Family" actor Kyla Pratt as Harts. Like Rae, Harts wants to diversify her portfolio. If we all can ask ourselves that in every part of the production process, then I think we'll have a more equitable Hollywood," Harts said.

studioEAST | Getty ImagesSome LinkedIn users have reported receiving unsolicited flirtatious messages via the platform, with expert Bernie Hogan at the Oxford Internet Institute saying the employment-focused social website is increasingly being used for dating purposes. "It's just a gross feeling ... it's gross, it's unprofessional," Huddy told CNBC. "LinkedIn is not a workplace, it merely frames itself as a workplace," he told CNBC Make It. A recent Forbes Health Survey of 1,000 Americans who have used dating apps in the past year found that 78% felt fatigued emotionally, mentally, or physically by dating apps sometimes, often, or always. "So LinkedIn has effectively created a dating site without dating," Hogan added.

Mesh networks consist of devices that connect to each other rather than to a single router. A mesh network is a private wireless broadband network in which devices, or connection points, link to one another in a weblike structure. Mesh networks also offer significantly more safety and security, whether from a malicious attack or other breach. We're also moving toward more autonomy and artificial-intelligence-driven decision-making, applications, and technologies; mesh networks are built for that. If you drop a mesh network into an environment with poor LAN architecture and configuration, it will become apparent pretty quickly.
