Shares of Salesforce (NYSE: CRM) fell as the company issued weaker-than-expected second-quarter guidance, causing the stock to drop despite maintaining its full-year forecast.

While the weak outlook led to a stock price decline, the company's full-year forecast was kept. Despite short-term uncertainties, Salesforce's future growth potential through AI and acquisitions like Slack, MuleSoft, and Tableau still make it a strong long-term investment option despite the current dip.

With the average age of grandparents increasing, more families are facing the challenges of providing both child care and elder care simultaneously, a phenomenon often referred to as the "sandwich generation." Research indicates that family networks are shrinking as people have fewer living relatives due to delayed childbearing and declining fertility rates. This demographic shift is leading to more generations living at the same time, resulting in scenarios where one generation may be caring for parents, children, and grandchildren simultaneously, creating physical, emotional, and financial strains on caregivers. The reliance on unpaid family caregiving poses potential risks as longevity increases and birth rates decline, highlighting the need for comprehensive long-term care systems to support an aging population.
