September is historically considered the worst month of the year for stocks, in what is known as the "September Effect."

WASHINGTON (AP) — Online gig work is growing globally, particularly in the developing world, creating an important source of employment for women and young people in poorer countries where jobs are scarce, according to a World Bank report released Thursday. The report estimates the number of global online gig workers at as many as 435 million people and says demand for gig work increased 41% between 2016 and the first quarter of 2023. That boost is generating concern, though, among worker rights advocates about the lack of strong job protections in the gig economy, where people work job to job with little security and few employment rights. While location-based gig services such as Uber, Lyft and TaskRabbit require labor like moving and delivery, online gig assignments can be largely done at home. Roughly half of the surveyed gig workers did not have a retirement plan and as much as 73% of Venezuelan gig workers and 75% of Nigerians did not have any savings for retirement.

Representatives for the company declined to comment on its business. In the days after Mr. Buffett’s death, retail and marketing experts said his legacy would continue to lure his fans — known as Parrot Heads, along with their children, called parakeets — and others to his businesses. “It’s definitely a lifestyle associated with him and his personality and his music that he created,” said Barbara Kahn, a professor of marketing at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. But, she said, because his business is “bigger than just that, it could definitely live on.”Mr. Buffett’s original idea for Margaritaville was “to expand the opportunity for as many people to experience the lifestyle immortalized in his iconic song as possible,” according to the statement on the company’s website. The company had $2.2 billion in gross annual revenue last year.

☆ There's an underlying trend that's making the Fed's job easier, Wharton's Jeremy Siegel says

The U.S. economy could bring down inflation while avoiding a growth slowdown — thanks to a rise in productivity, according to Jeremy Siegel, professor of finance at the Wharton School of Business. "The last quarter was, outside of the few months around the pandemic, the best quarter for productivity in over six years," Siegel told CNBC's "Squawk Box" on Monday. Data from the U.S. Department of Labor showed that nonfarm business sector labor productivity rose 3.7% during the prior quarter, as output gained 2.4% and hours worked fell 1.3%. The Atlanta Federal Reserve's GDPNow tracker of incoming data is suggesting growth of 5.8% in the period of July through September. "That's how you can have strong GDP growth without pressure on the labor market, and really without pressure on inflation.

☆ Stocks are still much better than bonds for generating long-term wealth, Wharton professor Jeremy Siegel says
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-21 | by ( Jennifer Sor | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +2 min

There's "no way" bonds are better than stocks for long-term investors, Wharton professor Jeremy Siegel said. By the time investors have doubled their money in bonds, they've quintupled their money in stocks, he estimated. Siegel has turned more bullish on stocks and the US economy over the past year amid inflation's decline. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 is currently trading with price-to-earnings ratio of about 20, which means stocks have around a 5% yield. "By the time you've doubled your money in bonds, you've multiplied your money by five times in stocks," Siegel said in an interview with CNBC on Monday.

I don’t think my way is the best way, and I don’t believe it’s a universal prescription for the “best” morning routine. Prepping meals for breakfast or lunch can be a part of some people's early morning routines, but you should find out what works best for you. I often get asked how I stay consistent with a morning routine. I’m going to approach this new chapter of life and redefining my morning routine by answering those same four questions. When coming up with a new morning routine, prioritize one new goal at a time and build out a plan to achieve that goal, an expert suggests.

☆ Wharton professor Jeremy Siegel says the US won't spiral into a new bout of inflation even as economy stays hot
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-18 | by ( Jennifer Sor | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +2 min

The US won't see a resurgence in inflation, according to Jeremy Siegel. That was a reflection of poor productivity in the economy, Siegel said – a trend that has since turned around:"It was the worst productivity performance in over 70 years. This year we are hiring at less than half the pace and we have two to three times the level of GDP growth. That's why we can have this tremendous GDP growth and still have the disinflationary trend." And inflation won't reaccelerate as improving productivity justifies higher wages and drives more economic output, Siegel explained.

And he's kept right on using Bing to do his job even after his company issued a policy barring the staff from using AI. Those secretly using AI on the job — experts call it "shadow IT" — appear to be legion. Luke doesn't know whether his employer is OK with him using ChatGPT, since it hasn't issued an official policy, and he's not about to ask. Even when employers block access to AI tools at work, employees are pulling up apps like ChatGPT on their personal devices. By failing to create clear guidance on AI, companies are effectively empowering the covert users at the expense of everyone else.

This counters a claim spreading online that misinterprets public data to suggest it shows the vaccines did not prevent deaths. The data shows there were 22,361 COVID deaths in England and Wales in 2022 where the individuals were vaccinated three times. This would be 80%, not 92%, of all COVID deaths for 2022, she said. The 92% pertains to COVID deaths of anyone who ever received a vaccine dose, the spokeswoman added. Moreover, the online claim’s wider suggestion of vaccine ineffectiveness is a misrepresentation of COVID deaths data, she said.

Comparing airline prices, fees, and schedules on your own has become standard procedure. And they've introduced a complex system of additional fees, often hidden, for services that used to be included in the ticket price. In order to give that flight the appearance of being on-time, the airline might list the flight duration as three hours. This practice allows airlines to improve their on-time performance and reduce the risk of delays while ultimately boosting cost efficiency. Since everyone became their own travel agent and airlines began fiercely competing over price and on-time performance, airlines have shifted their focus.

A Wharton professor has said companies should try to tempt employees to share how they're using AI to increase their personal productivity – rather than ban the tech and force them to hide it. He advised companies to try and lure these workers out, offering them incentives such as shorter days to share their discoveries. Mollick added that workers are already finding ways to get around bans on using AI at work, such as using their personal phones to access it.

Los Angeles CNN —After two years of surging prices, economists still can’t agree on what has caused the world’s worst inflation crisis in decades. The survey of 700 businesses across New York, Atlanta and Cleveland found that strength of customer demand outranked all other factors that companies weigh when setting prices, including steady profit margins and overall inflation. More than 82% of businesses surveyed said demand factored into their pricing decisions, while only 52% of businesses said they take the overall rate of inflation into account when setting prices. Are customers too willing to pay higher prices? Murphy said the restaurant has since raised prices more than once to keep up with inflation.
