Quick Glance: Profiting from Trump's Truth Social Appears Lucrative
  • An amateur Wall Street investor group has made millions by betting against the stock price of Trump's social media company.

  • Their bets are driven by the company's poor financials rather than personal feelings towards the former president.

  • Despite paper profits of at least $200 million, they remain cautious due to the stock's volatility.

  • Buyers of Trump's stock could amplify losses for short sellers through massive purchases and a potential 'short squeeze.'

Quick Glance: US implements ban on worker 'competition agreements' with business groups filing lawsuits

  • Prominent business associations have criticized the framework and declared legal actions, contending that noncompete agreements assist companies in safeguarding trade secrets and advancing competitiveness.

  • Unions have endorsed the FTC's vote in favor of the ban, hailing it as a significant triumph for workers that will enhance the national economy by fostering entrepreneurship.

Quick Glance: Zach Wilson Trade Notes: Jets Deal QB to Broncos before 2024 NFL Draft
  • Nearly three years have passed since the New York Jets selected quarterback Zach Wilson as the second overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft and are now officially trading the heavily criticized signal-caller to the Denver Broncos.

  • At the age of 24, Wilson has been available since the beginning of the 2024 offseason, with the team's general manager, Joe Douglas, openly stating the intention to relocate the former first-round pick.

  • In urgent need of quarterback reinforcements, the Broncos made significant roster moves by releasing veteran starter Russell Wilson before free agency and entering the draft with Jarrett Stidham leading the depth chart.

  • By signing journeyman Tyrod Taylor as Aaron Rodgers' primary backup earlier this offseason, the Jets effectively indicated the conclusion of Zach Wilson's tenure with the team.
