Treasury yields jumped last week, with the 10-year Treasury hitting its highest yield since 2007. Long duration stocks, which have the bulk of their projected earnings and cash flow far off in the future, have started to underperform short duration stocks that are generating significant cash already. For investors looking for short duration stocks that have not yet started to outperform, shares of rental car company Hertz Global are down 20% month to date. Overall, the short duration stocks highlighted by Goldman have lower valuations and a stronger near-term earnings picture than the long-duration stocks. 50% of companies in the Long Duration basket are expected to post negative EPS in 2023, compared with 6% for Short Duration," Kostin said.

"I’ve just loved every moment of my career,” she said through tears at the World Cup last month in Australia. At the 2019 World Cup in France, Rapinoe scored six goals, including a penalty in the final against the Netherlands.

Early in Hulu’s “The Other Black Girl,” Nella (Sinclair Daniel), an editorial assistant at the august and very white publishing company Wagner Books, is delighted to meet Hazel (Ashleigh Murray), the new hire to whom the title refers. She’s talking publishing, but she could be talking TV as well. So it’s fitting that “The Other Black Girl” isn’t alone. It’s one of two ambitious new series about young Black culture workers, in different countries and with different goals, dealing with the tension between representing one’s people and representing one’s self. The British import “Dreaming Whilst Black,” on Showtime, follows the aspiring filmmaker Kwabena (Adjani Salmon, who cocreated the series and the web comedy it is adapted from).

LONDON, Aug 24 (Reuters) - British sandwich and coffee chain Pret A Manger will launch its monthly coffee subscription service in the United States and France this year after the scheme proved a success in its home market, it said on Thursday. The group, commonly referred to as Pret, launched its coffee subscription service in September 2020, trying out a new business model to get it through the COVID-19 pandemic which hammered its sales. In April it rebranded the service as "Club Pret". A spokesperson for Pret said the price of the subscription service in the U.S. and France had not yet been confirmed. Pret said the rebranded subscription service in the UK had seen 17.8 million redemptions in its first three months, up 31% year-on-year.

When the tournament was expanded to 32 teams, there was apprehension around whether lower-ranked sides could compete at this level. Concerns about blowouts were blown out of the water in a changing of the guard. Japan are the only previous World Cup champions remaining, having climbed the winners' podium in 2011. In an end of an era, the elimination of the U.S., Canada and Brazil marked inauspicious World Cup finales for some of the game's biggest trailblazers in Megan Rapinoe, Christine Sinclair and Marta. The Lionesses have more big-game experience as reigning European champions, but Colombia have enjoyed better fan support than any team except Australia.

The stunning upsets sent twice German champions packing in their first exit from the group stage in nine editions of the World Cup. Revived Norway were a big group stage winner, brushing off a turbulent two weeks to squeeze into the knockout rounds on goal difference over New Zealand. Norway's advancement sealed New Zealand's fate, despite the Football Ferns having edged the Norwegians 1-0 for their first win at a World Cup at the tournament's opening match. South Africa are not used to dominating outside their own continent and the nation erupted in celebration after the Banyana Banyana knocked out Italy, quarter-finalists four years ago, to progress with their first ever World Cup win. China's Steel Roses, once titans of women's soccer with silver medals from the 1996 Olympics and 1999 World Cup, were shock losers in the group stage, bowing out in a 6-1 thumping by England.

Australia topped Group B on six points, one ahead of Nigeria, who also advanced after a 0-0 draw against Ireland. They almost made it 2-0 minutes later, but Raso's shot was well saved by goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan. It scarcely mattered as five minutes later, Raso was celebrating her second strike after Sheridan failed to clear the ball from a set-piece. But another Australian raid minutes later ended with Fowler slotting in a cross from Caitlin Foord to blow out the lead.

MELBOURNE, Australia, July 31 (Reuters) - Canada's Olympic champions are heading home from the Women's World Cup stunned and heartbroken - and still without a medal in the tournament from eight appearances. Canada are the first Olympic champions to be eliminated in the group stage of the next World Cup. Canada have won medals in their last three Olympics, but their best World Cup finish is fourth in 2003 - Sinclair's debut - in a puzzling lack of results at this tournament. With numerous underdogs performing well at this World Cup, it seems the world is catching up with North America and Europe, who have long dominated the women's game. Monday also marked the final Canadian game for 35-year-old Sophie Schmidt, who announced she would retire after this, her fifth World Cup.

And the 40-year-old has a chance to add further records to her name as she leads Canada at the 2023 Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. From becoming Canada’s young-ever player when she made her debut aged 16 to arguably soccer’s greatest ever goal scorer, Sinclair has led quite the life. With this likely her last World Cup, she has one final opportunity to add ‘world champion’ to her long list of achievements. Sinclair dribbles against Sweden's Karolina Westberg during the semifinals of the 2003 Women's World Cup. The Canadians finished fourth at the 2003 World Cup – Sinclair scoring three goals along the way – as well as back-to-back bronze medals at the 2012 and 2016 Olympics Games.

The next stretch of games in the Women’s World Cup will see several favorites to win the tournament look to build some momentum — or, in Canada’s case, find some — and display the dominance for which they’re known. Spain, which cruised in its opener, will look to repeat the feat just like Japan did on Wednesday in its win over Costa Rica, 2-0. Spain opened the World Cup in impressive style against Costa Rica. “We weren’t always clicking on the field,” the United States co-captain Alex Morgan said this week. And therein lies the problem facing the United States: that sturdiness, discipline and organization will be tough to break down.

PERTH, July 26 (Reuters) - Canada's ability to come back and beat Ireland 2-1 on Wednesday could prove to be the pivotal moment for the Olympic champions in their Women's World Cup campaign, coach Bev Priestman said. "I said at the end, 'It can be the making of us,'" Priestman told a press conference. The character, the quality, the experience that came about in the second half, that's the type of performance that we need." "Listen, Sophie Schmidt, Christine Sinclair, I thought their quality when we really needed it, they just allowed us to keep the ball in building," Priestman said. A goal in this tournament would make Sinclair the first player to score at six World Cups.
