In an attempt to boost earnings amid a period of weak sales, many of the biggest American retailers and their bank partners raised interest rates on their store-branded cards to all-time highs in the months prior to the Federal Reserve starting to lower rates. According to a study by Bankrate.com that looked at the top 100 shops in the country, at least 50 businesses, including Big Lots, Gap, Petco, Burlington, Macy's, and TJX Companies, raised the annual percentage rate (APR) on their credit cards between September 2023 and September 2024. Big Lots, a bankrupt home goods business, increased its annual percentage rate (APR) by 6 percentage points, from 29.99% to 35.99%. This was the biggest rise among the merchants that Bankrate examined. With a 5 percentage point boost on its Banana Repub...

Among the many unexpected selections, this one was a surprise. President-elect Donald Trump said this week that Dr. Mehmet Oz, who is as well-known for his title as America's Doctor as for the numerous questionable health claims he has made from that position over the years, would be leading the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Maybe that shouldn't have come as a surprise. After all, Trump supported Oz during his failed 2022 Senate campaign, and instead of disclosing his medical records to the public, Trump went on Oz's program in 2016 to have an on-air physical. In addition, Melania Trump is fond of him. His Instagram feed also links to the iHerb store, and he currently describes himself on his website as a global consultant and stakeholder for the online supplement and wellnes...

Questions have been raised concerning Matt Gaetz's political future ever since he resigned from the House and later withdrew his name from consideration to be President-elect Donald Trump's attorney general pick. Gaetz was re-elected this month to serve in his Florida district when the next Congress convenes in January, despite his resignation from the current Congress last week. Which begs the question: Could he come back? Here's some information. Gaetz can't return to Congress this year Gaetz's official position in the current 118th Congress came to an end when he filed his resignation. In the remaining weeks of this Congress, he will not be able to regain his seat. A resignation normally cannot be revoked and takes effect on the terms specified, according to the House's so-called...

The Northwest Arkansas National Airport Regional Airport Authority became the most recent in a growing number of airports to decide that travelers will simply have to use their own two feet to go to gates when they voted in September to remove the terminal's lone moving sidewalk. The airport claims that the people mover caused more trouble for travelers than it did good. According to Olivia Tyler, a spokeswoman for the Northwest Arkansas National Airport Regional Airport Authority, it would malfunction frequently when it was operating. She added that the outdated walkway was taking up a lot of room and that she couldn't recall the last time it operated. The walkway will be taken out and replaced with extra chairs and terrazzo flooring. Our rate of growth is astounding. Tyler stated that ...

It's undoubtedly striking: A group of multiracial, gender-bending models enter an austere, prismatic setting after emerging from an elevator wearing state-of-the-art makeup and vibrant apparel to a techno-industrial beat. However, the renowned British automaker Jaguar's new rebranding lacks one essential component: automobiles. Online comments on the advertisement have ranged from perplexed to appalled, with some equating the possible backlash to Bud Light's employment of a trans influencer in deviating far from its target audience. The advertising was deemed "disastrous" by a communications specialist on X because it placed too much emphasis on branding rather than the actual goods. "Something along the lines of 'our cars are engineered to the gills and go very very fast,' is what Jaguar ...

According to a new survey, women are becoming a greater proportion of the billionaire class, with a new set of aspirations and charity, as their share of global wealth increases. According to the Altrata Billionaire Census, 431 (13%) of the 3,323 billionaires worldwide are women. Even if that might not seem like much, over the last ten years, their numbers and share have been steadily increasing. The paper states that the feminization of the three-comma club will continue to be aided by the rise in female entrepreneurship, the gradual shift in cultural attitudes, and the increasing frequency of significant intergenerational wealth transfers. The strongest motivator has been inheritances. According to the survey, three-quarters of today's 431 female billionaires inherited some of their fort...

ViennaThe 35-nation Board of Governors, the U.N. atomic watchdog, passed a resolution on Thursday urging Iran to immediately strengthen its cooperation with the organization and calling for a thorough report to put pressure on Iran to engage in new nuclear negotiations. The resolution's proposers, Britain, France, Germany, and the United States, rejected an Iranian last-minute attempt to curb its store of nearly weapons-grade uranium as insufficient and dishonest. According to diplomats, Iran's action was contingent on the resolution being abandoned. Iran has stated that it would retaliate in kind to this resolution, which it often finds offensive. It has increased its nuclear activity and decreased IAEA control following earlier criticism at the International Atomic Energy Agency's Board ...
