Gandhi, who inspired millions with their unwavering

00:00:39.390 --> 00:00:43.469

00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:53.340
.5 feet high tide just before 2 .30. The near

00:01:53.340 --> 00:01:57.019

$285 million in annual economic impact for San

in the Midway Sports Arena neighborhood is estimated

00:04:22.379 --> 00:04:27.339

volleyball venue in Anaheim and Comcast for the

00:05:18.259 --> 00:05:23.019

00:05:23.019 --> 00:05:26.100
stated, Today's historic announcement delivers

00:05:26.100 --> 00:05:29.060
on that promise, aiming for a fully privately

00:05:29.060 --> 00:05:32.490

00:06:11.379 --> 00:06:14.519
$5 billion investment in an industrial stock

00:06:14.519 --> 00:06:17.420
following Berkshire Hathaway's filing after the

00:06:17.420 --> 00:06:21.680
market closes. As the market opens, frenzied

00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:25.680
buying could lead to missed opportunities. Analysis

00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:28.439
shows that Buffett has strategically invested

in the commercial, industrial, and other category,

00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:35.959
which surged by $4 .8 billion over the past two

00:06:35.959 --> 00:06:39.620
quarters. Many are speculating that Caterpillar

00:06:39.620 --> 00:06:42.519
is the target, given its solid fundamentals and

00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:45.040
position in the booming infrastructure sector.

00:06:46.220 --> 00:06:49.040
Investors are advised to consider buying Caterpillar

00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:51.920
shares or industrial exchange -traded funds.

00:06:52.350 --> 00:06:54.970
as a way to capitalize on this potential gain.

00:06:55.670 --> 00:07:00.250
In business news, electric truck maker Rivian

00:07:00.250 --> 00:07:04.170
is reporting a loss of $100 million in potential

00:07:04.170 --> 00:07:07.410
revenue due to relaxed fuel economy rules in

00:07:07.410 --> 00:07:10.550
the United States. Following the rollback under

00:07:10.550 --> 00:07:13.029
the Trump administration, the National Highway

00:07:13.029 --> 00:07:16.009
Traffic Safety Administration ceased issuing

00:07:16.009 --> 00:07:19.310
necessary paperwork for compliance credits, impacting

00:07:19.310 --> 00:07:23.220
electric vehicle manufacturers. Rivian's director

00:07:23.220 --> 00:07:25.879

00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:29.199
cannot finalize regulatory credit deals, which

00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:32.600
previously accounted for 6 .5 % of its total

00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:36.160
revenue in the first half of the year. Meanwhile,

00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:39.519

00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:43.420
revenue from credit sales, emphasizing the industry's

00:07:43.420 --> 00:07:48.459
challenging landscape. In crypto movement, Bitcoin

00:08:07.910 --> 00:08:12.069
vibe. In our community spotlight on health and

00:08:12.069 --> 00:08:14.990

00:08:50.570 --> 00:08:54.710
sunny morning sent you by. And now, back to the

00:08:54.710 --> 00:09:00.190
show. Let's talk tech. In a groundbreaking development

00:09:00.190 --> 00:09:03.370
for the shipping industry, Danish maritime pilots

00:09:03.370 --> 00:09:06.929
can now remotely guide vessels from shore, marking

00:09:06.929 --> 00:09:09.429
a significant evolution in shipping technology.

00:09:11.029 --> 00:09:14.769
Jorgen Andersen, a seasoned pilot, recently traded

00:09:14.769 --> 00:09:17.429
a precarious boat commute for a control room

00:09:17.429 --> 00:09:20.889
on a houseboat. overseeing the vent amerisk via

00:09:20.889 --> 00:09:24.509
video link. This innovative system, developed

00:09:24.509 --> 00:09:27.990
by navigation data firm Danelec, allows pilots

00:09:27.990 --> 00:09:32.149
to access vital data directly from ships. While

00:09:32.149 --> 00:09:35.250
proponents emphasize safety and efficiency, some

00:09:35.250 --> 00:09:38.210
pilots express skepticism about automation's

00:09:38.210 --> 00:09:41.769
impact on their profession. However, DanPilot

00:09:41.769 --> 00:09:45.409
aims to expand remote pilotage by the year 2026.

00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:52.440
ensuring the role of pilots remains vital. Entertainment

00:09:52.440 --> 00:09:57.080
news. Hulu, one of the earliest and largest streaming

00:09:57.080 --> 00:10:00.340
services, will soon undergo a significant change.

00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:04.259
The second oldest streaming platform, after Netflix,

00:10:04.580 --> 00:10:08.299
will merge its app into the Disney Plus app next

00:10:08.299 --> 00:10:13.019
year, as announced by Disney's CEO. Launched

00:10:13.019 --> 00:10:16.379
in 2008, Hulu's ownership has shifted over time,

00:10:16.659 --> 00:10:19.840
culminating in Disney's full acquisition earlier

00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:23.639
this year from Comcast. This transition reflects

00:10:23.639 --> 00:10:26.639
the ongoing evolution of television away from

00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:31.179
traditional cable. With a combined total of 183

00:10:31.179 --> 00:10:34.659
million subscribers for Disney and Hulu, the

00:10:34.659 --> 00:10:37.480
streaming landscape continues to shift, raising

00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:40.259
costs for viewers as competition intensifies.

00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:44.919
Well, alrighty, folks. It's time for the quote

00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:48.799
of the day. And today, our quote comes from the

00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:51.620
American writer and philosopher, Henry David

00:10:51.620 --> 00:10:56.460
Thoreau. And he said, things do not change, we

00:10:56.460 --> 00:11:01.539
change. And that's a wrap for this morning. You

00:11:01.539 --> 00:11:04.360
can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok
