Read previewAI chatbots seem to be taking on an unexpected role as a tool for manifestation. AdvertisementLisa Van Meurs, a 26-year-old TikToker living in Barcelona, also started using ChatGPT as a manifesting tool for creating vision boards and story prompts. Clinical psychologist and manifestation expert Anna Kress said AI can be an "incredible tool to enhance manifestation practices," and can help people "break through psychological barriers." "I can see it being extremely useful for people who want to try manifestation practices but struggle with creativity or visualization," Kress said. Kress recommends using the tool as a supplement, rather than a replacement of inner work and personal insight.

☆ S&P 500 to reach 6,000 next year even with latest rotation out of tech, says Janney strategist
▼ + stars: | 2024-08-02 | by ( Lisa Kailai Han | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

The current market rotation into small-cap stocks shouldn't come at the expense of the broader equity rally, according to Mark Luschini, chief investment strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott . In fact, Luschini's call for the S & P 500 is that the index could rise to the 6,000 level in the next 12 months. While some investors have called into question the longevity of the current rotation into small-cap names, Luschini believes that the trend's legitimacy has been proven thus far. But at this point, the lagging sectors have built on the gains they have established in the last several weeks to push the market higher. That said, the strategist emphasized the importance of the technology sector in carrying the S & P 500 to his 6,000 target next year.

A federal grand jury is set to begin hearing evidence this month in the scam to steal the Graceland estate from Elvis Presley’s family, sources say. It involved a company called Naussany Investments, which claimed that Lisa Marie Presley, Elvis’ only child, owed millions of dollars in unpaid loans before she died. To collect on that debt, Naussany Investments sought control of Graceland through a foreclosure sale of the historic mansion. The documents Naussany Investments filed turned out to be forged, and a judge tossed out the case. More than half a dozen links seemed to separately connect Holden with the foiled scam at Graceland, NBC News found.

Some large-cap tech stocks are likely to fare better than others if investors continue to move into smaller companies. Artificial intelligence-adjacent mega-cap tech titans have been the driving force behind the current bull market rally, which began last October. Nvidia — with a market value above $2.9 trillion — has soared 136% this year alone, after climbing 239% in 2023. But a combination of disappointing tech earnings and impending interest rate cuts has weakened some of the bullish sentiment toward mega-caps.

The law firm hired by the Harris campaign to investigate potential vice-presidential candidates has completed its work, leaving the final decision — the most important yet of the still-new campaign — squarely in Vice President Kamala Harris’s hands. Covington & Burling, the Washington law firm tasked with the vetting, completed the job on Thursday afternoon and turned over its findings to Ms. Harris, according to two people briefed on the process. The Harris campaign has suggested it will announce the decision by Tuesday evening, when the vice president and her to-be-named running mate begin a five-day tour of presidential battleground states, starting in Philadelphia. Several of the contenders, including Govs. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania and Andy Beshear of Kentucky, canceled events this weekend, reflecting both a desire to be available for those conversations and to avoid drawing additional speculation from the news media about their chances.

CNN —Maybe a hug from a parent no longer solves problems for a teen as it did in their childhood. But when it comes to teenage mental health, adults can do a lot to help, according to new data. The survey found that 1 in 6 parents have a hard time comforting and communicating with their teen. ridvan_celik/E+/Getty ImagesThe worsening mental health and rising stakes of teens often puts parents in a difficult place. That scenario is why it’s important for parents and caregivers to have their own mental health resources, said Dr. Whitney Trotter, a doctor of nursing practice, psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner and registered dietitian in Austin, Texas.

Everything is different now for Democrats. Their crowds are dancing. The celebrities — from Southern rappers to Hollywood actors — are showing up.

The audience of Black journalists was prepared for a combative exchange well before Donald J. Trump took the stage on Wednesday for an interview at their annual gathering in Chicago. Yet when Mr. Trump, just minutes in, began questioning Vice President Kamala Harris’s racial identity, there was an instant ripple of reaction — a low rumble that grew into a roar of disapproval. “I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black and now she wants to be known as Black. So I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?” Mr. Trump said of Ms. Harris, whose mother was Indian American and whose father is Black. The moment was shocking, but for those who have followed Mr. Trump’s divisive language, it was hardly surprising.

Nearly half, 48%, of singles under the age of 35 want a serious or committed relationship, according to a new eharmony report. Almost one-third, 30%, believe that you need to go on two dates a week if you want to find a long-term relationship. This might not be enough, though, says Lisa Marie Bobby, a relationship psychologist and founder of Growing Self Counseling & Coaching in Denver. "In my experience it takes a lot of energy to find your person," she says. "People who are really serious about finding their person are going to be spending a lot more time than two days a week dating," Bobby says.
