Goldman Sachs believes Constellation Brands (STZ) has the potential to revive sales in its struggling Wine & Spirits division. It's not impossible, but we're more bullish on the company's core beer business. In the Goldman note, Herzog acknowledged that Wine & Spirits has, indeed, struggled. Management's emphasis on "driving shareholder returns reduces the risk of its underperforming Wine business," she added. We had been hoping to hear news about a breakup of its underperforming Wine & Spirits, which did not happen.

☆ How Wall Street's Culture Is Contributing to the Loneliness Crisis
▼ + stars: | 2023-11-30 | by ( Emmalyse Brownstein | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +14 min

Wall Street is notorious for its long hours and stressful lifestyle, particularly at the junior level, where grunt work abounds. They'd work hard and play hard, with an enviable social life like in all the Wall Street movies she'd seen. But Wall Street workers say that the nature of finance — the office politics and uniquely competitive cohort — can create a work culture that exacerbates feelings of loneliness. Some of the loneliness comes from this — it's all new, it feels bad, it's scary, and they don't feel like they can talk to anyone. But that doesn't mean people working on Wall Street can't do anything to mitigate their loneliness.

The Glazer family announced last November that they were exploring "strategic alternatives" for the club, including a possible sale and were open to fresh investment. Manchester United's U.S.-listed shares rose 9.5% to $20.10 in early trading on Friday. Manchester United generates more revenue and has a larger fan base than its London rival. The Glazer family has faced intense criticism from fans over its handling of this key part of the club's operations. The six descendants of American businessman Malcolm Glazer, who died in 2014, currently control 96% of Manchester United's voting stock.

The offer represents a premium of 79.1% to the stock's Thursday closing price of $18.43, which gave the Old Trafford club a market capitalization of about $3 billion. Ratcliffe, also the chair of petrochemicals firm Ineos, would pay more than $1.5 billion for a 25% stake in United if his bid for the soccer club is accepted, Reuters reported in October. The Glazer family, which made its fortune in real estate, retail and healthcare and owns the NFL's Tampa Bay Buccaneers, bought the team for 790 million pounds in 2005. The six descendants of American businessman Malcolm Glazer, who died in 2014, together control 96% of Manchester United's voting stock. The deal was yet to be finalised and remained the subject of ongoing negotiations, Sky News reported on Friday.

CNN has contacted UEFA, the governing body of European football, and the Israeli Football Association for comment.

Ineos Chair Jim Ratcliffe would pay over $1.5 billion for the stake in Manchester United if his bid for the soccer club is accepted by the Glazer family that controls it, Reuters reported on Sunday, citing a person familiar with the matter. "Investors are clearly reacting with disappointment to expectations the Qatar deal for Manchester United will not go through," said Susannah Streeter, head of money and markets at Hargreaves Lansdown. "Expectations for a flood of fresh funding into Man U's coffers for a new stadium and new players are being revised." Jassim informed the Glazer family a few days ago that he will not raise his bid of more than $6 billion for Manchester United, which had a market capitalization of $3.26 billion as of Friday's close.
