Discussion of Amazon's logistics.

Covid may have begun or at least accelerated a change in an American institution that in my opinion has been longer overdue: the car dealership.

Volvo said last year that its electric vehicles—which the automaker says will account for 100 percent of sales by 2030—will be sold exclusively online.

It's taking them a while, but I certainly wouldn't sell Amazon's grocery efforts short.

I was surprised to learn that Lehman's bankruptcy--which was the spark that ignited the Great Recession--is still not yet wrapped up about 14 years later.

Two notes:

1. You don't have to wait for the new recipe if you get what I think is Halo Top's best flavor by far: Sea Salt Caramel. It currently is soft and creamy right out of the container. And delicious.
2. The article notes that "By 2017, Halo Top shouldered aside full fat ice creams, including Häagen-Dazs and Ben & Jerry's, to become the top-selling ice cream brand in the United States, according to Business Wire." This may come as a surprise to those who remember the famous antitrust case brought against super-premium ice cream makers where the claim was that it was very difficult to compete with the industry leaders. Um . . . apparently not.

Some people might be getting rich from "influencing." but judging from this, not many.
