Do you prefer Starbucks or Luckin Coffee?
Starbucks is currently grappling with significant challenges in its business performance, particularly in the United States. This year, the company has entered a period of notable decline in same-store transactions, a sharp contrast to the stable growth experienced over the past two years. In North America, sales growth has stagnated at just 1%, while internationally, both same-store sales and overall revenues have plunged by 23%. This article is written by Shernice, if you like my article please hit the like button or do a repost. With a new CEO taking the helm, Starbucks is reevaluating its promotional strategies. In response to the post-pandemic landscape, the company had previously introduced various offers, such as buy-one-get-one deals and discount vouchers. However, these effo
Trump threatens to take back Panama Canal over ‘ridiculous’ fees
Donald Trump has demanded that the Panama Canal be given back to the US if Panama did not manage the waterway in a fashion that was acceptable to him – and he accused the central American country of charging excessive rates for use of the ocean-connecting ship passage. “The fees being charged by Panama are ridiculous, especially knowing the extraordinary generosity that has been bestowed to Panama by the US,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform late Saturday, a little more than a month before the start of his second US presidency. “This complete ‘rip-off’ of our Country will immediately stop….” The Panama Canal is a vital conduit for U.S. shipping companies, facilitating efficient trade between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Approximately 40% of all U.S. container traffic, valued at

How Trump's Debt Ceiling Elimination Proposal Could Impact TLT and Long-Term Bonds
In September, the Federal Reserve's decision to lower interest rates by 50 basis points was expected to lead to a decrease in bond yields. However, contrary to expectations, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond rose instead. This unexpected increase continued even after the Fed's recent meeting, where further rate decisions were made, leading to a complex situation for bond investors who are now facing significant losses attributed to this rate cut announcement. Looking back , they were projecting a 4-rate cut in 2025. The dot plot is updated every three months, and the previous one was fairly dovish, as they anticipated a 2-rate cut in one move and the dot plot suggested 4 cuts for next year. However, after three months, the outlook has shifted to a more hawkish stance. My adv
Yesterday, stock market fluctuations were quite dramatic, with most of my favourite stocks falling more than 5% in premarket trading. Media outlets and social media have been fueling fear by heavily emphasizing the risk of a U.S. government shutdown tonight, which has heightened risk-averse sentiment among investors. As a result, stock futures have dropped significantly, with Nasdaq 100 futures declining over 1.7% in pre-market trading.

However, at 8:30 AM, the Federal Reserve's key inflation indicator, the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index, was released.

$CRDO 20250221 70.0 CALL$ $Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd(CRDO)$ Add on to existing position
Initiated monitoring position for Credo. Credo makes a unique cable product called an active electrical cable (AEC), which connects data center servers to networking switches. The company claims its AECs take up 75% less space than Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cables and offer 50% more power efficiency versus active optical cable (AOC) alternatives. As power and space are becoming scarce commodities in power-hungry AI data centers, Credo's proprietary technology seems to be finding favour with large AI customers. In its fiscal third quarter, Credo delivered 63.6% revenue growth to $72.0 million, beating estimates by $5.2 million, while adjusted (non-GAAP) earnings per share came in at $0.07, beating estimates by $0.02.

On December 19, 2024, U.S. stock markets faced sharp declines as the Federal Reserve's tempered outlook on future interest rate cuts unsettled investors. The S&P 500 dropped 2.95% to 5,872.16, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 2.58% to 42,326.87, and the Nasdaq Composite saw the steepest decline, closing 3.65% lower at 21,198.28. This sell-off largely stemmed from concerns over the Fed's cautious approach, with institutional investors driving the downturn to capitalize on market volatility. The Federal Reserve, under Jerome Powell's leadership, reduced interest rates by 25 basis points to a target range of 4.25%–4.5%, marking a 1% total reduction since September 2024. Despite persistent inflation, Powell signaled only two more rate cuts in 2025, halving previous projections of four

It all started with abnormal monthly symphony heavy flow that led to anemia, and things escalated when I was hospitalized for leukopenia due to a critically low neutrophil count. I suspect the turning point was an infection after a fall during my daily jog, which left my elbow and knees injured. Following the fall, I developed a slight fever and visited a clinic.

Unsurprisingly, today the media reports that Xi is unlikely to attend. President Xi Jinping would never come to play second fiddle.

$FrogAds, Inc.(FROG)$ JFrog is navigating a cautious path regarding future large cloud migration deals, as the company notes that customer migration activity has not yet fully rebounded. This scenario mirrors the challenges faced by industry giants like Microsoft and Adobe during their transitions to cloud-based and subscription models. Historically, once these migrations are completed, companies typically experience robust revenue growth, and JFrog is optimistic that a similar trajectory awaits them. However, the company did report a slight decrease in gross margin, dipping from 83.7% to 82.8%, which can be attributed to the increased proportion of cloud revenue in their overall mix.
