But gig delivery companies like DoorDash and Instacart say they don't plan to make any changes. AdvertisementIf you make deliveries as a gig worker, don't expect any changes from a new federal rule — at least, not immediately. But companies that rely on gig workers to make deliveries say they won't need to make any changes. Amazon, which employs gig workers through its Flex delivery arm, did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment.

☆ Biden slams Trump as 'revealing twisted true colors' after Trump says he hopes economy crashes in 2024
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-09 | by ( Rebecca Picciotto | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

The White House took aim at former President Donald Trump after the Republican presidential candidate front-runner said he hoped the economy would crash this year rather than during his theoretical second term. Economists have forecast economic slowing in 2024, but consensus has not gone so far as to cry recession. The White House used Trump's comment as an opportunity to tout Biden's economic wins and to draw contrasts with the previous administration. Trump has taken advantage of Biden's struggling economic narrative on the campaign trail, reminiscing on what he claims was a golden economy under his administration. Under Trump, the economy expanded for several years but the stock market ultimately came crashing down in 2020 at the advent of the pandemic while Trump was still in office.

Expect, too, to see a wider variety of employers offer more financial wellness benefits in 2024. “After three years of turmoil it finally looks like [work from home] has stabilized and 2024 will look a lot like 2023. Employees who can work a hybrid schedule are generally working from home roughly 30% of the week (or about 1.5 days), Bloom noted. For example, someone with a busy work schedule may opt to take them via text or chat on their phone on a Sunday morning, he said.

‘Jaja’s African Hair Braiding’Even if the hairstyles in this play weren’t as fabulous as they were, Jocelyn Bioh’s “Jaja’s African Hair Braiding,” about a day in the life of African immigrants working in a Harlem hair-braiding shop, would still be a sparkling Broadway delight. That’s thanks to Bioh’s colorful characters and brisk, playful dialogue. I didn’t know until I saw David Adjmi’s “Stereophonic,” which kept me fully engaged through its full three-hour running time.

Both numbers topped estimates, and still the stock fell after hours, trading below $240 a share as of this writing. At nearly 9 times revenues and 45 times forward earnings estimates, PANW is not a cheap stock, moreover it is still up sharply on the year, and outperforming considerably. Stock replacement strategy One possibility is a stock replacement, selling one's stock holding and replacing that exposure with options. By using a call spread one can maintain some exposure to the upside in the event the stock bounces back.

☆ Largest Starbucks strike in history is planned for Thursday. It shows US labor unrest isn’t over yet
▼ + stars: | 2023-11-16 | by ( Chris Isidore | Danielle Wiener-Bronner | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +6 min

But the union said the limited duration strike on a key promotion day for Starbucks is important in its efforts to win their first contract at the chain. The union, Starbucks Workers United, won its first representation vote at the company in December 2021, at a store in Buffalo, New York. But many of the stores on strike remained open in past strikes, because management replaced the unionized striking workers with workers from nearby non-union stores and managers. That’s possible because of the close proximity of many Starbucks stores to one another. The union earlier this fall filed an unfair labor practice charge with the NLRB over Starbucks’ refusal to bargain around promotion days.

☆ Payments-app war drags banks into discomfort zone

NEW YORK, Nov 14 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Banks tend to have a consistent message for customers who unwittingly make payments to scammers: tough break. Rapid growth in digital payments has brought out a softer side in lenders such as JPMorgan (JPM.N) and Bank of America (BAC.N). If the con artist was posing as the victim’s bank, a government agency or a legitimate company – say, a utility – the sender’s bank will return the funds if other criteria are met and recoup them from the recipient’s bank. From next year its banks will have to reimburse victims of online payment deceit. Moreover, convenience and trust are powerful weapons: Bank of America customers now use Zelle twice as often as their checkbooks.
