Andy Jassy is thinking long-termThe recent return-to-office mandate requiring employees to work from the office five days a week is tricky. I think Jassy is thinking long-term, which is one of the core features of Amazon's leadership principles: long-term thinking. The third leadership principle I think Jassy is enforcing is frugality. The principle says that leaders work daily to create a safer, more productive, higher-performing, and diverse work environment. I think Jassy looks at this and says, "That is what I am doing."

In younger women, rates have increased at a faster clip — by about 1.4% every year since 2021. Among Asian American and Pacific Islander women under 50, breast cancer diagnoses have increased by 50% since 2000. Today, Black women are 5% less likely to get breast cancer than white women, but are nearly 40% more likely to die from the disease. The American Cancer Society researchers noted that this disparity is seen in even the most treatable types of breast cancer. Each person’s family and personal history and genetics will also determine when they should start screening for breast cancer.

While weight training is on the up, so is running: Running remained the most popular sport on Strava in 2023, up 4% since 2022. I know that when trying to establish a new healthy habit, going slow and steady makes it more likely to stick.

Club holdings Amazon , Costco , Home Depot , and Best Buy have been preparing for the port strike for months — attempting to blunt any fallout it might have on their abilities to get goods from overseas. They added that 60% to 70% of those imports arrive at East Coast and Gulf Coast ports. To put things in perspective, for retail goods, the East Coast ports are less utilized than the West Coast ports, Basham said. Due to its size, however, Best Buy often gets priority from its shippers, which could help secure goods faster than smaller competitors.

Americans' love affair with cash may be costing them in the long run, according to Wells Fargo. A record $6.42 trillion is sitting in money market funds, as of Wednesday, according to the Investment Company Institute . The seven-day annualized yield on the Crane 100 list of the 100 largest taxable money funds is currently 4.75%. During Fed rate decreases, direct money market investments, like Treasury bills, will absorb the cuts quicker than money market funds. "A long-term risk of relying on money market funds as a sizable allocation is the cash drag over our strategic time horizon," she said.

☆ Everest grew taller faster after Himalayan river ‘piracy,’ scientists say

This process, known as river piracy, set in motion a chain of geological events that reshaped the landscape, scientists reported Monday in the journal Nature Geoscience. While some instances of river capture and landscape remodeling began millions of years ago, others are happening today, she added. Evidence of one ancient example still exists around the edges of the Himalayas, where long-ago river capture eroded deep gorges. Han’s simulations suggested that river capture would have dramatically increased the flow of water in the Kosi’s lower segments. Compared with river piracy, erosion and uplift unspool over a much longer time span — and are still happening with Everest, Lhotse and Makalu.
