In top news, the credit market is humming, and
that has Wall Street on edge. Concerns mount
that a frothy market is concealing signs of excess,
as sudden bankruptcies rattle investors. United
States credit markets are running hot, maybe
too hot. Investors are eagerly buying corporate
debt. even though the rewards are lower than
they have been in decades. The frothy mood has
some on Wall Street worried that the market is
priced for perfection and right for a fall. Two
sudden bankruptcies in the auto sector have triggered
conversations among bond investors and analysts.
So far, there is no sign of wider fallout, but
challenges like persistent inflation and rising
defaults and private credit are concerning. In
business news, Amazon has agreed to pay $2 .5
billion to settle claims that misled Prime customers
into automatic enrollment and made cancellation
difficult. The Federal Trade Commission announced
the settlement during a trial over the lawsuit,
which accused Amazon of using manipulative user
interface designs. Amazon will provide up to
$51 to eligible customers and pay a $1 billion
dollar civil penalty. The company must also simplify
cancellation processes and create a website explaining
the settlement. Despite the settlement, analysts
believe Amazon Prime's benefits will continue
to attract consumers. Amazon shares fell about
1 % following the announcement. In crypto movement,
Bitcoin is up 2 % to about $114 ,000. Ethereum

Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent
you by. And now, back to the show. Let's talk
tech. In a recent comparison of navigation apps,
Waze and Apple Maps were put to the test over
800 miles of driving. Both apps provide valuable
features, but Apple Maps emerged as the top choice
overall. While Waze offers a fun selection of
voices, Its interface can be distracting due
to nearby users, shown on the map itself. Apple
Maps, with a cleaner interface, includes options
for walking and biking, and its explicit directions
are a standout feature. Additionally, Apple Maps
allows users to download offline maps, which
is crucial for areas with poor cell service.
Ultimately, for reliability and clarity, Apple
Maps takes the win. Entertainment news. Keanu
Reeves and Alex Winters' production of Waiting
for Godot is a stylish but shallow interpretation
of Samuel Beckett's classic. While their on -stage
chemistry draws applause, the performance lacks
depth and connection. Reeves portrays Estragon
with a blend of childlike curiosity and weariness.
while Winter's Vladimir feels stiffer and less
skilled. The rush pacing hampers the dialogue's
intended rhythm, overshadowing moments of silence
that are essential to the play. Supporting characters
like Pozzo and Lucky offer compelling mastery
of Beckett's prose, adding intrigue to the production.
However, the overall experience remains aesthetically
pleasing yet hollow. Well, all righty, folks.
It's time for the quote of the day. And today,

and psychologist, William James. And he said,
