AdvertisementAgility Robotics CEO Peggy Johnson says humanoid robots are filling some labor gaps. AdvertisementDigit is Agility Robotics' mobile manipulation humanoid robot. It competes with the likes of Apptronik, which is working with NASA on humanoid robots, and Boston Dynamics, which has created humanoid robots called Atlas that it says can run and jump over obstacles, as well as perform factory worker tasks. Agility Robotics' humanoid robots are currently only permitted to work inside a specific, cordoned-off space separate from human workers. Agility Robotics takes a similarly cautious approach to its application of artificial intelligence, which is deep in the hype stage.

Boggs, founder and CEO of D&S Executive Career Management, once had a candidate interviewing for a vice president-level role. Stories of job-seekers making progress on their search, only to have the rug pulled out from under them later in the hiring process, have become all too common. A majority of job-seekers say they've experienced "love-bombing" or been ghosted during the interview process for a new role, according to a recent survey of 2,900 global employees by Greenhouse, the hiring platform. A similar share, 52%, say they've been ghosted in the hiring process, or had initial conversations, and in some cases made it to final rounds of interviews, only to never hear back from the recruiter or hiring manager about a decision. "Because of that, it's leaving people in a really confusing spot and giving folks anxiety and questioning, frankly, their career and their sanity."

☆ Amgen says obesity drug caused up to 20% weight loss after a year, with no plateau
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-26 | by ( Annika Kim Constantino | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

Amgen on Tuesday said its experimental weight loss injection helped patients with obesity lose up to 20% of their weight on average after a year in a critical mid-stage trial, as the company races to join the booming obesity drug market. The drug, MariTide, also helped patients with obesity and Type 2 diabetes lose up to 17% of their weight after a year. The company said it did not observe a plateau in either group of patients, which indicates the potential for further weight loss beyond 52 weeks. That could boost Amgen's odds of winning a slice of the weight loss drug market, which some analysts forecast could be worth $150 billion a year by the early 2030s. That's unlike Eli Lilly's obesity drug, Zepbound, which activates both GIP and GLP-1.

☆ Hong Kong is becoming a hub for financial crime, US lawmakers say

Hong Kong CNN —Hong Kong has become a center for money laundering and sanctions evasion under the tightening grip of Beijing, US lawmakers have warned, calling for a re-evaluation of America’s close business relationship with the Asian financial hub. “We must now question whether longstanding US policy towards Hong Kong, particularly towards its financial and banking sector, is appropriate,” they added. Rubio, a fierce critic of Beijing’s crackdown on Hong Kong, has sponsored legislation that sanctioned Chinese and Hong Kong officials for alleged human rights violations in the city. This has massive implications for US businesses with big exposure to Hong Kong,” Fish said. “Sadly, the idea of Hong Kong as autonomous from China is now a farce … US companies need to understand that their Hong Kong operations will likely fall under increased scrutiny.”

Mr. Trump was indicted for aiding a possible coup and multiple other charges, including revealing classified documents to his supporters at Mar-a-Lago. Is that weaponizing our justice system, or allowing it to do its job, regardless of the consequences? Jair Bolsonaro, Brazil’s former president, was just charged with inciting Brazil’s attempted coup when he lost his re-election bid in 2022. It seems Brazil’s justice system is more capable of upholding its laws than ours is. I am now totally disgusted with my country and the judicial system over the Donald Trump legal fiasco.

Oil giant Chevron's discount relative to peers has created an attractive entry point, according to Citi. Chevron is up just 7.5% year to date, lagging the S & P 500's 25% advance in that time. Rival Exxon Mobil has also outperformed Chevron, up 20% in 2024. Syme forecasts the valuation gap between Chevron and Exxon Mobil to reach "a historically wide gap" of 20% as soon as 2026. If the arbitration panel rules in favor of Exxon, Chevron's merger deal with Hess, announced earlier this year, will not close.

A record 31 million passengers are expected to fly US airlines over the course of this week, according to Airlines for America, the industry trade group. And while many airlines have increased the available number of flights and seats, those capacity increases have not kept pace with demand. With some of the busiest months yet to come, a new record for the percentage of seats airlines’ filled is within reach. Airlines are signaling prices will probably go higher as some of the lower-fare airlines struggled with ongoing losses and sharply reduced their capacity. But critics of the airlines say troubles at the lower fare airlines aren’t solely to blame for higher fares.

San Francisco-based Databricks is raising at least another $5 billion in its latest funding round — though it could raise up to $8 billion given the round is ongoing — according to several sources who asked not to be named because the discussions were private. The latest raise would value the company at $55 billion and could top the largest round of the year by OpenAI. The latest funding is designed to help Databricks employees sell shares, a source said. One source said the funding round makes Databricks' highly anticipated public debut less urgent. This summer, it acquired MosaicML, a $1.3 billion software startup that focuses on large language models that can churn out natural-sounding text.

The Israeli military also told entire towns in southern Lebanon to evacuate, including Naqoura, where a United Nations peacekeeping force is based. The cease-fire proposal, mediated by American and French diplomats, would start a 60-day process during which both sides would stop fighting and withdraw from southern Lebanon. Israel has sought guarantees from the United States that it would have U.S. support to send troops back into southern Lebanon if Hezbollah violated the arrangement. Hezbollah’s leader, Naim Qassem, suggested last week that the group would accept a truce if Israel stopped striking Lebanon and Lebanon retained its sovereignty. The cease-fire would officially be an agreement among Israel, Lebanon and the mediating countries, including the United States.

Federal Reserve officials expressed confidence that inflation is easing and the labor market is strong, allowing for further interest rate cuts albeit at a gradual pace, according to minutes from the November meeting released Tuesday. In addition, they expressed uncertainty over where the rate cuts would need to stop before the Fed hit a "neutral" interest rate that neither boosts nor restrains growth. Conflicting signals on inflation and the uncertainty over Trump's policies have caused traders to scale back their outlook for interest rate cuts ahead. Officials indicated that the state of the labor market is generally solid. "Participants generally noted … that there was no sign of rapid deterioration in labor market conditions, with layoffs remaining low," the minutes said.
