Die Wall Street startet heute ohne große Bewegung in den Handel. Nach dem starken Tech-Rebound vom Montag treten die Futures zunächst auf der Stelle. Der Dow liegt leicht im Plus, der S&P 500 nahezu unverändert, der Nasdaq minimal im Minus. Im Mittelpunkt steht erneut das Thema künstliche Intelligenz. Nvidia verliert vorbörslich rund drei Prozent, nachdem Berichte kursierten, Meta könnte künftig Milliarden in Googles eigene AI-Chips investieren. Alphabet-Aktien legen daraufhin deutlich zu. Am Montag stachen Alphabet und Broadcom ohnehin heraus – beide profitieren vom Boom spezieller Hochleistungs-Chips. Trotz der Erholung bleiben alle drei großen US-Indizes im November im Minus. Anleger zweifeln zunehmend an den hohen Bewertungen vieler Tech-Titel und fragen sich, ob es zum Jahresende noch eine Rally geben kann. Gleichzeitig richtet sich der Blick auf die US-Notenbank. Die Märkte preisen inzwischen eine hohe Wahrscheinlichkeit für eine Zinssenkung der Fed im Dezember ein. Aussagen von John Williams und Mary Daly deuten darauf hin, dass die Notenbanker den ersten Schritt nach unten vorbereiten könnten. Bei den Unternehmen überzeugt Best Buy mit starken Zahlen und einer angehobenen Prognose.

Likefolio's Andy Swan says Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS) has a “very real structural edge” vs any competitor going into the holiday season. He compares stock price to web visits, noting strong growth in the latter, which he calls “extraordinarily impactful.” With the stock lower, he sees a “divergence opportunity” and thinks that the earnings call will be upbeat with a “healthy outlook.” ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

What if sending one Instagram DM could completely change the trajectory of your life and business? In this episode, Braxton Kilgo, Founder & CEO of I Believe In You (IBIY), shares his incredible journey from a small town in Texas with just 200 people to building a global movement that's touched lives in over 20 countries and 100+ cities. After a career-ending football injury forced him to reimagine his future, Braxton discovered his true calling when a middle school principal's phone call led him to create stickers that said "I believe in you" - sparking a ripple effect of kindness he couldn't ignore. From frantically rewriting a speech 24 hours before delivery to receiving stories about lives saved, Braxton reveals how one bold DM to a stranger in Scottsdale introduced him to his business partners Joey and Dylan, who brought him into a world of entrepreneurs that transformed everything. Through the power of "big belief leading to big action," Braxton built IBIY - a tech-enabled bracelet movement where small acts of kindness create measurable waves of impact, with partnerships including Tony Robbins' Mastermind.com and Recovery Unplugged that happened before they even officially launched their B2B offering. Braxton shares why "show up to serve, not sell" will 10x everything you're doing, how being kind and asking "how can I help you?" creates an army of people ready to connect you with anything you need, and why the person giving the bracelet might experience something even more powerful than the person receiving it. [00:05:19] What Braxton Does: Building a Kindness Movement with Technology Founded I Believe In You (IBIY) - a movement centered on one core belief: small acts of kindness can make big waves of impact Flagship product: Bracelets with "I believe in you" message that you wear with the intention to give away Each bracelet contains an NFC chip synced with mobile app - tap your phone to see personalized video/photo messages and track the bracelet's journey Track every city, country, and person impacted - watch your ripple effect spread around the world even after you give it away Mission: Create an army of "wave makers" to make impact as individuals and businesses [00:07:40] The Origin Story: From Football Dreams to Purpose Grew up in May, Texas - a town of 200 people where his whole family lived on one farm Thought his only path out was playing in the NFL Got to college on a football scholarship but struggled with injuries, limping off the field every day after practice Strength coach Coach Ramey pulled him aside: "I think you were made for something bigger than this, and I think you also want to be able to run around in the yard with your kids one day" Eventually dropped out, went back to the farm and oil field, returned to school and started a clothing company called Vision about defining your version of success [00:10:41] The Pivotal Moment: A Principal's Phone Call That Changed Everything Got invited to speak at a middle school (about 10 schools in, wasn't very good yet) Principal called 24 hours before: "I wanted to remind you what some of the kids are going through at home and at school so you really know who you're talking to" Spent 10 minutes breaking Braxton's heart with stories Braxton told his brother: "I wrote the wrong speech. I'm not qualified" [00:12:37] The Unexpected Impact: When Kindness Goes Viral Principal called days later: Kids were being nicer to each other in hallways and to staff Parents called thanking them for the speaker because of conversations kids started at home Local businesses called asking "what are these ugly ass stickers these kids are sticking on everything?" At 19 years old, shipped bracelets to 16 different countries, appeared on TV channels and podcasts [00:15:01] The Long Journey: From 19 to 30 and Back Again Realized he didn't know any entrepreneurs - "the only person I knew that was maybe a business person was the guy who had more cows next door" Put IBIY on pause to learn how to be a business person and build the technology Built another company (Hours Global - business consulting) that he used to fund IBIY Worked with 1,000+ clients in sales, branding, and high-level partnerships over the decade Now ready to launch IBIY to the world at age 30 (turns 30 next week) [00:18:29] The Million Dollar Question: A Life-Changing Introduction Who Changed Everything: Joey and Dylan (his business partners) [00:19:25] Pivotal People: Joey and Dylan - The Instagram DM That Changed Everything Was planning to move to Fort Lauderdale with his best friend/brother Two friends convinced them to move to Scottsdale instead - "at least come for a little while" On the drive to Scottsdale in a U-Haul, looked for people doing cool stuff on Instagram Never had true friends who were also entrepreneurs before meeting Joey and Dylan They introduced him to Devon who runs Arizona Entrepreneurs, which is where he met Nico [00:21:18] The Scottsdale Effect: From 10 Months to 5 Years Original plan: Stay in Scottsdale for 10-12 months then leave Reality: Stayed for 5 years and was the last one there after all his friends moved Joey and Dylan are now his business partners in IBIY They're the reason he brought IBIY back when he did [00:23:20] The Arizona Entrepreneurs Connection: Opening Doors Everywhere Joey and Dylan introduced him to the Arizona Entrepreneurs community Became the official marketing partner of the entire Arizona Entrepreneur group His first investor for IBIY came from one of those stages Got to sit on stages with "some of the top entrepreneurs in the world" even though they'd done "astronomically more" than him" [00:31:42] The Three Pillars of IBIY Direct-to-Consumer: Bracelets sold online to anyone in the world; each collection gives back to a charity Culture Shift Tour: Speaking at hundreds of schools around the country every year (led by partner Jared), recreating the original sticker moment with real bracelets B2B Partnerships: Custom co-branded bracelets for nonprofits, churches, retreats, conferences, and businesses with custom messaging and packaging [00:32:40] The Partnership Program: Impact You Can Track Organizations get completely co-branded bracelets and packaging Can leave a custom message on the front of all bracelets (video from founder/leader appears first time it's tapped) Working with major companies BEFORE officially launching: Recovery Unplugged, Mastermind.com (Tony Robbins and Dean Graziosi), Dick's Sporting Goods meeting scheduled, ClickFunnels reached out All from texting friends and reaching out through personal relationships - no marketing yet [00:38:59] Braxton's Advice: Big Belief, Big Action, Big Results "You have to believe you are before you are and you have to believe like absurdly" "Big belief leads to big action, which is the only way to get those big results" "Little belief leads to little action, which then basically just has you re-solidify in your mind that you couldn't do it" "If you want the magic, you gotta take some risks. There's no risk, there's no magic" [00:41:00] The Giver's Gift "It's really awesome for the people that receive the bracelet, but I think it might still be more powerful to the person that gives it away" KEY QUOTES "Small acts of kindness can make big waves of impact." - Braxton Kilgo "You have to believe you are before you are and you have to believe like absurdly. Big belief leads to big action, which is the only way to get those big results." - Braxton Kilgo "If you show up to serve, not sell, it will 10x everything that you're doing." - Braxton Kilgo "If you want the magic, you gotta take some risks. There's no risk, there's no magic." - Braxton Kilgo CONNECT WITH BRAXTON KILGO
Yinz Are Good shares the *good* news going on out there and celebrates the good people who are making it happen: The people who are lifting others up, who are taking care of their neighbors, the people who are saying, “What can I do today to make the world a better place?”We recently received an email saying, in part, “I'm reaching out to introduce you to two Pittsburghers who I think are a perfect fit for Yinz Are Good: Carla Arnold, who is 67 years old, and Tricia Patsilevas, who is 38 years old. Carla and Tricia are North Side neighbors who first met while volunteering in their community garden and have since built a friendship full of laughter, generosity, and adventure…They're one of the Pittsburgh-based pairs featured in Picture This, a new Age-Friendly Greater Pittsburgh campaign, celebrating the power of aging in community.” Well, yinzers, this is right up our alley... So Tressa made her way to the North Side to chat with Carla and Tricia to learn more about their intergenerational friendship and how they're building community. Then Tressa headed to Squirrel Hill for a delightful chat with Laura Poskin, the Executive Director of Age-Friendly Greater Pittsburgh.

The News RundownSteve leads off with the latest tariff turmoil, as trade negotiations between the U.S. and Canada stall amid the Trump administration's response to an ad created and paid for by the Ontario government running in U.S. media whose key auto sector is endangered by Trump trade policies. They also explore luxury corporate earnings, where Hermès continues to shine, while. Gucci owner Kering struggles to regain footing. Meanwhile, Mattel falls short as retailers tighten orders ahead of the holidays.The discussion then turns to job cuts at Target, Amazon, GM, and Nestlé, revealing how automation, AI, and tariff pressures are reshaping corporate structures, before turning to Amazon's plan to replace up to 600,000 roles with robotics. They also cover ChatGPT's meteoric rise to No. 2 in product search, challenging Google and signaling a shift in how consumers discover products.Throughout, they underscore the precariousness of retail confidence heading into the holiday season — from Tractor Supply's cautious guidance to Deckers' HOKA sales slowdown.Blank Canvas Strategy: Finding Retail's 'New Earth'In the second half, Steve introduces "Blank Canvas Strategy"— a methodology for retailers to reimagine their businesses from the ground up, free from legacy constraints. Unlike Blue Ocean Strategy, which focuses on discovering compltey untapped markets, this framework helps brands reinvent their core business models before disruption makes them irrelevant.Steve urges leaders to recognize when their "planet" (current business model and market domain) becomes uninhabitable, and to begin building "Earth Two" — an alternative growth destination. Together, the hosts examine why incremental change doomed once-iconic retailers like Blockbuster, Sears, and Pier 1, and how others like Dick's Sporting Goods and RH (Restoration Hardware) succeeded by boldly innovating their business designs.They close by discussing how executives can carve out time, treasure, and talent for R&D, overcome the fear of cannibalization, and lead with the courage to disrupt themselves before competitors do.After the focused content discussion it's on to the most remarkable stories of the week, including Walmart's massive commitment to deploying 90 million supply-chain sensors to track pallets and fresh-food products.The episode wraps with what needs to be on everyone's radar screens. One recommendation: keep your eyes on "GU" the first U.S. store fromUniqlo's parent company, Fast Retailing. Located in New York's Soho neighborhood, Gu is a bright, energetic space with "eye-poppingly good prices" and strong shopper buzz.

===== MDJ Script/ Top Stories for October 24th Publish Date: October 24th Commercial: From the BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Friday, October 24th and Happy Birthday to Kevin Kline I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Mableton candidates share plans to tackle homelessness amid rising concerns Turnout remains steady in Week 2 of early voting Brazilian steakhouse coming to Cumberland Mall Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sweet tooths All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: Ingles Markets 2 STORY 1: Mableton candidates share plans to tackle homelessness amid rising concerns Homelessness is a growing issue in Cobb County, and Mableton, as the county’s newest city, isn’t immune. As of February, five homeless encampments were identified in the area. Local resources like Family Life Restoration Center and HOPE Family Resource Center are working to help, but the challenge is complex. In August, a former Wingate Hotel near Six Flags was converted into housing for homeless veterans, despite pushback from Mableton’s City Council. With two contested City Council races on the Nov. 4 ballot, candidates were asked how they’d address homelessness. District 2 Michael McNeely emphasized collaboration: “We need an asset map to identify resources and capacity, especially as the weather changes. I’ll work with elected officials, churches, and nonprofits like Family Life Restoration to create a sustainable plan.” Incumbent Dami Oladapo focused on partnerships and community action: “We can expand resources with groups like HOPE Family Resource Center and Family Life Restoration. But it’s not just about institutions—neighbors coming together to collect blankets or food makes a real impact. Long-term, we need attainable housing and neighborhood revitalization.” District 4 Patricia Auch acknowledged the complexity: “We direct people to nonprofits like MUST Ministries and Sweetwater Mission, but homelessness often involves mental health or substance abuse issues. It’s not just about finding a home—it’s about addressing deeper problems.” Cassandra Brown, meanwhile, stressed connection over criminalization: “We need to link unhoused residents to local nonprofits already doing the work, like Family Life Restoration and HOPE. MUST Ministries is great, but it’s too far—over two hours by bus. We need solutions closer to home.” Homelessness remains a tough, multifaceted issue, but candidates agree: it’ll take compassion, collaboration, and creativity to make progress. STORY 2: Turnout remains steady in Week 2 of early voting Early voting in Cobb County is off to a slow but steady start, with just under 6% of eligible voters casting ballots so far. Monday and Tuesday saw the second- and third-highest turnout days, with 1,410 and 1,495 voters, respectively. Friday still holds the top spot with 1,728 votes. Some locations, like the Cobb Elections Main Office in Marietta, are seeing spikes—554 voters showed up Tuesday. East Cobb’s Government Service Center also had its busiest days, with 321 voters Monday and 329 Tuesday. Early voting runs through Oct. 31 at seven locations countywide, with hours varying by day. Election Day is Nov. 4. STORY 3: Brazilian steakhouse coming to Cumberland Mall Fogo de Chão, the beloved Brazilian steakhouse known for its tableside meat service, is heading to Cumberland Mall, taking over part of the old Sears site. This week, the Cobb Board of Commissioners gave the green light for the mall’s site plan update, paving the way for an 8,670-square-foot restaurant between Dick’s Sporting Goods and Cobb Parkway. If you’re unfamiliar, Fogo de Chão is all about churrasco—Brazilian barbecue where meats are roasted over an open flame and carved right at your table. Guests use a green-and-red disc to signal servers: green means “keep it coming,” red means “I’m stuffed.” This will be Georgia’s third Fogo location, joining Buckhead and Dunwoody. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info. We’ll be right back. Break: Ingles Markets 2 STORY 4: Cobb School Board vice chair ordered to repay $225,000 in lawsuit settlement On Wednesday, a Fulton County judge ordered Cobb School Board Vice Chair John Cristadoro to pay $225,000 to Sagicor Life Insurance Company after allegations of misappropriated funds. According to court documents, Cristadoro’s marketing firm, Alliance Activation, received $250,000 from Sagicor to fund an advertising campaign. Of that, $225,000 was meant for a third-party vendor, Sunburst Entertainment, but the money never made it there. Instead, it was allegedly used to cover Alliance’s operating expenses—and even Cristadoro’s personal credit card bills. Judge Wesley Tailor ruled Cristadoro must pay $186,000 within three days, followed by $500 monthly payments until the full amount is settled. Cristadoro denied wrongdoing, calling the settlement a business negotiation and accusing critics of “manufacturing outrage.” However, parents and activists, including Heather Tolley-Bauer of Watching the Funds Cobb, pushed for transparency, opposing Cristadoro’s attempt to seal the settlement details. If Cristadoro defaults, the unpaid balance will accrue 10% interest until paid.

Kim Vaccarella is the founder and CEO of Bogg Bag, the durable, washable, and colorful tote designed to carry it all with ease, from beach days to everyday adventures.Kim's journey to building Bogg Bag was anything but linear. A mom of two with a full-time job, she sketched the idea for a sturdier beach tote after one too many sandy, soggy days at the shore. Turning that sketch into reality meant dipping into her children's college savings, navigating failed prototypes, and surviving a shipment disaster that nearly sank the company. She pitched the concept to investors, auditioned for Shark Tank four times, and kept going even when the odds looked impossible. For nearly a decade, Kim built Bogg slowly and steadily on the side, determined to protect her vision and move at her own pace. That persistence paid off. Today, Bogg Bag is a thriving $100 million brand carried in major retailers like Nordstrom, Target, and Dick's Sporting Goods, with millions of bags in the hands of customers across the country.In this week's episode, Kim gets super detailed about the many ups and downs on bringing this business to life - from the risks she took to place her first big order, the moments she nearly walked away, and the lessons she learned about patience, resilience, and staying true to her path. We talk about the turning points that defined her journey—from manufacturing challenges and early rejections to grassroots growth and viral moments, and the leap of faith she took when she left her 26-year career to focus on Bogg full time.

Part inventor, part hustler, part one-man media team—Mike Silva turned a Thanksgiving garbage-can game into QB54: a dual-purpose football game you play (then sit in). The Blue-Collar Twins dig into how he went from beach-day preorders to manufacturing at scale, survived COVID freight shocks, landed in 200 Dick's Sporting Goods stores, and kept his family in the ride the whole way. You'll hear: The origin story: buckets to chairs, a light-bulb prototype, and first cash-in-hand preorders on the Jersey Shore.Testing before betting: small runs, tailgate demos, and learning to trust (but verify) manufacturers.Retail reality: terms, freight, tariffs, drayage—and why “getting in” is nothing without “selling through.”Media engine: eight years of footage, smart ad buying, ROAS/CAC basics, and turning reactions into conversion.Resilience & risk: six-figure debt, family support, mentor advice (“stay even keel”), and the grit to keep moving.What's next: Shark Tank exposure, overseas distribution, and a potential soccer variant.

We have a new Brain Candy seal of approval, inspired by Sarah, created by Adam, and loved by all. Pay attention to our approvals with our new device. We wonder why the Twinkie never left despite threats that they were discontinuing their production of the food (???). We learn the origin of Pac-Man, why the game was revolutionary, and what makes us love it still. We talk about the strange success of the sporting goods story, Dicks, and how Sarah thought Dick divorced someone and she had a spinoff store called Chicks. We debate AI for therapy, wellness, and friendship, and share what we think people should do instead (and it involves, you know, talking to actual people). We learn about the new Shiny Happy People season, but it turns out, Susie's up to speed, since she was a participant in evangelical churches in the 90s.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:For 50% off your order, head to https://www.dailylook.com and use code BRAINCANDYSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
