For some, the fear of tariffs means stocking up on cars, skincare, and hair products. But following Donald Trump's presidential election victory, Hull heard that car costs could surge if his tariff plans are enacted. On the campaign trail, Trump proposed a 60% tariff on imports from China and 10% to 20% on goods from other countries. AdvertisementConsidering the larger scale of Trump's proposals this time around, trade experts have identified goods, including car parts, apparel, and electronics, as products at risk of getting more expensive under Trump's tariff proposals.

☆ As weddings become more expensive, guests are paying more in costs as well
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-16 | by ( Leah Asmelash | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +12 min

As an unwed woman and frequent wedding guest in 2024, I am maybe too attuned to the ways weddings have become increasingly extravagant. On Reddit, one user noted that being a bridesmaid in her best friend’s wedding in a Scandinavian town, where the friend’s family is from, is going to run her $8,000. And some guests are being denied plus-ones, making attending the wedding less of a joy and more of a dutiful chore. Even in times of high inflation, like now, while some may try to cut back, expensive weddings prevail. Weddings are the rare time in life where everyone you care about will likely come together — friends, family and loved ones.

The famed investor's conglomerate bought nearly 1.3 million shares of Domino's, a 3.7% stake worth $549 million at the end of September. The result is that Pool Corp. sits firmly within Buffett's "circle of competence," which he keeps in mind to ensure that he only invests in things he understands. Neither Domino's nor Pool Corp. classify as cheap on a price-to-earnings basis.

"Ultimately, if RFK dons jackboots and demands that we don't have vaccines or eat junk food, it probably won't matter," he said. At the same time, Cramer added, Kennedy has taken a hard stance against processed food. Many drug and processed food stocks have already shouldered heavy losses since Trump named Kennedy, including Eli Lilly , Bristol-Myers , Moderna , PepsiCo , J.M.
