Retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, who has only been retired for three months, expressed interest in purchasing a minority stake in the Eagles, the team he played for throughout his career. However, the potential $7.5 billion valuation of the team, which is 11 times their yearly revenue, may put ownership out of reach for Kelce and his brother Travis, as even a minority stake would likely be too expensive. Kelce jokingly mentioned he would back out of a TV deal to become an owner, but acknowledged the significant financial barrier to entry for owning part of an NFL team.

Risky companies are leveraging a recalibration in the leveraged loan market to handle the Federal Reserve's 'higher for longer' stance. By readjusting debt for better terms, they've collectively saved over $1.4 billion in annual interest costs. This comes as investors, facing limited new offerings, are reducing average margins by approximately 50 basis points. With the Fed possibly holding off rate cuts, non-investment grade companies may maintain an edge against higher rates by renegotiating loans, while CLOs play a vital role in this repricing wave.

International News Center, June 12, 2024, 1:04 PM: US President Joe Biden and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will sign a long-term defense and security agreement at the Group of Seven (G7) summit in Italy on Thursday, June 13. The move aims to show US determination towards Russia but does not involve direct US military intervention in Ukraine. The agreement has the joint support of 15 other countries. The G7 summit will address various global challenges beyond the Ukraine-Russia conflict, including the Middle East, trade imbalances with China, artificial intelligence, and immigration. This summit is significant for G7 leaders facing domestic political challenges, including potential last moments for Democratic candidate Biden engaging in fierce competition with presumed Republican candidate, former President Donald Trump, and recent gains of far-right European parties in EU elections. Analysts raise concerns about the consequences if G7 leaders fail to reach consensus on shared issues. US officials express confidence in continued close cooperation with EU partners regardless of European Parliament election outcomes.

Yellow and white sweet corn may have different pigments in the kernel, but the main variation in taste comes from the corn variety rather than the color, according to Mark Mueller, a corn farmer from Iowa. Mueller explains that the preference for yellow corn over white corn originated from a popular corn variety in the late 1800s. Additionally, he emphasizes that freshness is crucial for delicious corn, suggesting that leaving the husk on until right before eating helps preserve the corn's quality.
