San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy was limited with the right shoulder injury that sidelined him last week and there is growing concern about the long-term status of left tackle Trent Williams. Wednesday's practice was not the start to the NFL workweek head coach Kyle Shanahan had hoped after Purdy was unable to bounce back from a shoulder injury in Week 11. Brandon Allen started at Green Bay and the 49ers (5-6) lost 38-10 with the backup-turned-starter committing three turnovers. Williams was reportedly spotted in the locker room with a knee scooter and is experiencing pain walking. He played through an ankle injury against the Seattle Seahawks Nov. 17. Defensive end Nick Bosa (hip, oblique) also missed practice Wednesday, leaving the 49ers to spend the holiday plotting to play the Buffalo Bills (9-2) without the three Pro Bowlers again. "I don't know anyone who gets Thanksgiving off unless maybe you have a Monday night game. You just start a lot earlier and get the players out," Shanahan said. "We cram everything in so the players get out, tries to be home with the family by 5. I usually get home by 7 and they're all mad at me, then get back to red-zone (installation)." The 49ers are in danger of a three-game losing streak for the first time since Oct. 2021. Injuries have been a common thread since September when running back Christian McCaffrey was a surprise scratch with an Achilles injury for the opener. Wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (ACL) is out for the season at a position dinged from top to bottom. Star linebacker Fred Warner also is ailing and said Wednesday that he fractured a bone in his ankle on Sept. 29 against the New England Patriots. The game against the Bills will mark his eighth straight game playing with the injury. "It's something I deal with every game," Warner said. "I get on that table before every game and get it shot up every single game just to be able to roll. But it's not an excuse. It's just what it is. That's the NFL. You're not going to be healthy. You've got to go out there, you've got to find ways to execute, to play at a high level and to win every single week." Shanahan wasn't interested in injury talk. He said the 49ers have not played well in the past two weeks, and puts part of his focus on getting more out of the running game with snow in the forecast on Sunday night. He's not in agreement with pundits who doubt McCaffrey's ability early into his return from injured reserve, with a per-carry average of 3.5 yards compared to 5.4 in 2023. "The speculation on Christian is a little unfair to him," Shanahan said. "Christian is playing very well. He's playing his ass off. To think a guy who misses the entire offseason is going to come back and be the exact same the day he comes back would be unfair to any player in the world." San Francisco opened the 21-day practice window for linebacker Dre Greenlaw, who tore his Achilles in the Super Bowl in February. His return date is unclear. --Field Level Media
3 Millionaire-Maker Artificial Intelligence (AI) StocksAnti-NATO protest in Montreal erupts in fires, smashed windows, arrests, say policeIreland goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher enjoyed another night to remember at Anfield as his penalty save from Kylian Mbappe helped rampant Liverpool to a 2-0 win against Real Madrid in the Champions League. Liverpool ended a 15-year wait for a win over Real Madrid as goals from Alexis Mac Allister and Cody Gakpo put them on the brink of guaranteeing a place in the last 16 with a fifth successive win. "I was confident and thankfully went the right way again,” said Kelleher, speaking to TNT Sports after the win. "It is a big result. It is a massive result for us. We wanted to come out tonight and put on a performance and well done to the lads for doing that." The Cork-born stopper also looked ahead to the massive game against Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday as he added: "I think confidence is high in the whole squad. "Man City, we know they have had a tough few results but what a team. We expect a really tough test but this is good confidence for the team and we will go again." Liverpool manager Arne Slot saluted his biggest win yet as Liverpool manager, as he reflected on a stunning start to life as Jurgen Klopp’s successor at Anfield. "You know how special it is to play against a team that has won the Champions League so many times,” said the Dutchman. "They were a pain in the ass for Liverpool for many years too. It is a big week and it is pleasing to see. "I didn't have a schedule in terms of amount of points I wanted. You want to implement the playing style as soon as possible. That is not difficult because it wasn't that different to Jurgen's. " It is great to see not only the starters but the players coming on are doing as we expect. If before the season I had counted points for this point in the season I wouldn't have done as much as we have now. "Every time Real Madrid threatened us was from us. I think we can play with more intensity and better with the ball."D램 가격 하락에 미국 제재까지... 한국에 일찍 온 반도체의 겨울 Published: 18 Dec. 2024, 07:03 A man rests at the booth for Chinese DRAM producer ChangXin Memory Technologies during the 21st China International Semiconductor Expo in Beijing, Wednesday, Nov. 20, 2024.

No. 24 Arizona is coming off consecutive defeats for the first time in the Tommy Lloyd era when it faces undefeated Davidson on Wednesday to begin the Battle 4 Atlantis in Paradise Island, Bahamas. Arizona (2-2) lost at Wisconsin 103-88 on Nov. 15 and followed that with a home loss against Duke 69-55 on Friday. The Wildcats have dropped 15 spots in the Associated Press Top 25 poll in two weeks. Arizona's record is .500 this early in a season for the first time since it was 3-3 to start the 2017-18 schedule. "I've got work to do, so let's get to work," said Lloyd, in his fourth year as Arizona's head coach. "Let's see where we're at in a month, and if we're still struggling, you know what I'll do? I still got work to do, but I'm gonna get to it." Arizona shot 39.6 percent from the field against Duke, and just 26.1 percent (6 of 23) from 3-point range. The Wildcats were outrebounded by 43-30 and their 15 turnovers led to 19 points. Jaden Bradley led Arizona with 18 points and KJ Lewis added 12. Preseason All-American Caleb Love had eight points on 3-of-13 shooting from the field, including 1-of-9 from 3-point range. Arizona made only one field goal in the last 5:39 as Duke pulled away after its lead was trimmed to six points. "We didn't play great," Lloyd said. "Now we need to take a step back and figure out why. Are there some schematic problems? Are there some problems with how our personnel is kind of put together? "We got to figure out what our certainties are, and the things we have to have, and then over the course of the next couple of days, if there's adjustments we need to make, we need to figure out what those are." Davidson is 4-0 after a 15-17 record last season, in which it lost its last six games to put an end to postseason hopes. A 93-66 win over visiting VMI on Friday followed a 91-85 win at Bowling Green and 76-70 victory over visiting East Tennessee State. The two wins by 10 points or fewer are important because Davidson was 6-12 in such games last season. It was 4-11 in games decided by five points or fewer. "The goal (is) to get better," Davidson head coach Matt McKillop said after the season opener. "We talk about fighting to win every possession. I think we had to figure out what that really felt like with the lights on." Davidson made 13 shots from 3-point range in the win over VMI. Reed Bailey had 23 points, eight rebounds and six assists. Bobby Durkin added 19 points, including 17 of them and a career-best five 3-pointers in the first half. Bailey leads Davidson in scoring (19 points per game) and rebounding (7.8). Durkin is shooting 57.9 percent (22 of 38) from the field and 54.2 percent (13 of 24) from 3-point range. By contrast, Arizona's Love is shooting 32 percent (16 of 50) from the field and 21.4 percent (6 of 28) from beyond the arc. Bradley leads Arizona with 15.5 points per game. He is shooting 50 percent (24 of 48) from the field and is 35.7 percent (5 of 14) from 3-point range. --Field Level MediaChargers’ leading rusher J.K. Dobbins sidelined by sprained knee

Jurors end 1st day of deliberations without a verdict in the YSL gang and racketeering trialNEW DELHI (Reuters): Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s party and its allies were set to return to power in the nation’s richest state, television channels reported on Saturday, a boost for the Hindu-nationalist leader after a disappointing general election. In Maharashtra, home to India’s financial capital Mumbai, the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Mahayuti alliance was leading in 221 of 288 seats. The opposition Congress party and its allies are leading in 55 seats in the state elections, local media reported. “The Mahayuti government [...] has achieved undisputed and resounding success,” Eknath Shinde, the state’s chief minister, said on social media platform X. Modi lost his majority in parliamentary elections held between April and June and had to depend on fickle allies to form a government. Last month his party won state elections in the northern state of Haryana. State election wins help political parties boost their numbers in the upper house of parliament, which is key for decision-making. In the mine-rich eastern Jharkhand state, the ruling regional party Jharkhand Mukti Morcha, which is in alliance with the Congress-led opposition, is leading to regain control by defeating the BJP and its allies, media reported. Political parties in both states have rolled out a range of measures that they say will benefit farmers and women, both considered critical voting blocks. Results from Maharashtra and Jharkhand are expected later on Saturday.NEW YORK (AP) — Walmart's sweeping rollback of its diversity policies is the strongest indication yet of a profound shift taking hold at U.S. companies that are revaluating the legal and political risks associated with bold programs to bolster historically underrepresented groups in business. The changes announced by the world's biggest retailer followed a string of legal victories by conservative groups that have filed an onslaught of lawsuits challenging corporate and federal programs aimed at elevating minority and women-owned businesses and employees. The risk associated with some of programs crystalized with the election of former President Donald Trump, whose administration is certain to make dismantling diversity, equity and inclusion programs a priority. Trump's incoming deputy chief of policy will be his former adviser Stephen Miller , who leads a group called America First Legal that has aggressively challenged corporate DEI policies. “There has been a lot of reassessment of risk looking at programs that could be deemed to constitute reverse discrimination,” said Allan Schweyer, principal researcher the Human Capital Center at the Conference Board. “This is another domino to fall and it is a rather large domino,” he added. Among other changes, Walmart said it will no longer give priority treatment to suppliers owned by women or minorities. The company also will not renew a five-year commitment for a racial equity center set up in 2020 after the police killing of George Floyd. And it pulled out of a prominent gay rights index . Schweyer said the biggest trigger for companies making such changes is simply a reassessment of their legal risk exposure, which began after U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in June 2023 that ended affirmative action in college admissions. Since then, conservative groups using similar arguments have secured court victories against various diversity programs, especially those that steer contracts to minority or women-owned businesses. Most recently, the conservative Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty won a victory in a case against the U.S. Department of Transportation over its use of a program that gives priority to minority-owned businesses when it awards contracts. Companies are seeing a big legal risk in continuing with DEI efforts, said Dan Lennington, a deputy counsel at the institute. His organization says it has identified more than 60 programs in the federal government that it considers discriminatory, he said. “We have a legal landscape within the entire federal government, all three branches -- the U.S. Supreme Court, the Congress and the President -- are all now firmly pointed in the direction towards equality of individuals and individualized treatment of all Americans, instead of diversity, equity and inclusion treating people as members of racial groups,” Lennington said. The Trump administration is also likely to take direct aim at DEI initiatives through executive orders and other policies that affect private companies, especially federal contractors. “The impact of the election on DEI policies is huge. It can’t be overstated,” said Jason Schwartz, co-chair of the Labor & Employment Practice Group at law firm Gibson Dunn. With Miller returning to the White House, rolling back DEI initiatives is likely to be a priority, Schwartz said. “Companies are trying to strike the right balance to make clear they’ve got an inclusive workplace where everyone is welcome, and they want to get the best talent, while at the same time trying not to alienate various parts of their employees and customer base who might feel one way or the other. It’s a virtually impossible dilemma,” Schwartz said. A recent survey by Pew Research Center showed that workers are divided on the merits of DEI policies. While still broadly popular, the share of workers who said focusing on workplace diversity was mostly a good thing fell to 52% in the November survey, compared to 56% in a similar survey in February 2023. Rachel Minkin, a research associated at Pew called it a small but significant shift in short amount of time. There will be more companies pulling back from their DEI policies, but it likely won’t be a retreat across the board, said David Glasgow, executive director of the Meltzer Center for Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging at New York University. “There are vastly more companies that are sticking with DEI," Glasgow said. "The only reason you don’t hear about it is most of them are doing it by stealth. They’re putting their heads down and doing DEI work and hoping not to attract attention.” Glasgow advises organizations to stick to their own core values, because attitudes toward the topic can change quickly in the span of four years. “It’s going to leave them looking a little bit weak if there’s a kind of flip-flopping, depending on whichever direction the political winds are blowing,” he said. One reason DEI programs exist is because without those programs, companies may be vulnerable to lawsuits for traditional discrimination. “Really think carefully about the risks in all directions on this topic,” Glasgow said. Walmart confirmed will no longer consider race and gender as a litmus test to improve diversity when it offers supplier contracts. Last fiscal year, Walmart said it spent more than $13 billion on minority, women or veteran-owned good and service suppliers. It was unclear how its relationships with such business would change going forward. Organizations that that have partnered with Walmart on its diversity initiatives offered a cautious response. The Women’s Business Enterprise National Council, a non-profit that last year named Walmart one of America's top corporation for women-owned enterprises, said it was still evaluating the impact of Walmart's announcement. Pamela Prince-Eason, the president and CEO of the organization, said she hoped Walmart's need to cater to its diverse customer base will continue to drive contracts to women-owned suppliers even if the company no longer has explicit dollar goals. “I suspect Walmart will continue to have one of the most inclusive supply chains in the World,” Prince-Eason wrote. “Any retailer's ability to serve the communities they operate in will continue to value understanding their customers, (many of which are women), in order to better provide products and services desired and no one understands customers better than Walmart." Walmart's announcement came after the company spoke directly with conservative political commentator and activist Robby Starbuck, who has been going after corporate DEI policies, calling out individual companies on the social media platform X. Several of those companies have subsequently announced that they are pulling back their initiatives, including Ford , Harley-Davidson, Lowe’s and Tractor Supply . Walmart confirmed to The Associated Press that it will better monitor its third-party marketplace items to make sure they don’t feature sexual and transgender products aimed at minors. The company also will stop participating in the Human Rights Campaign’s annual benchmark index that measures workplace inclusion for LGBTQ+ employees. A Walmart spokesperson added that some of the changes were already in progress and not as a result of conversations that it had with Starbuck. RaShawn “Shawnie” Hawkins, senior director of the HRC Foundation’s Workplace Equality Program, said companies that “abandon” their commitments workplace inclusion policies “are shirking their responsibility to their employees, consumers, and shareholders.” He said the buying power of LGBTQ customers is powerful and noted that the index will have “record participation” of more than 1,400 companies in 2025."

Colorado 85, Utah Tech 73Jalen Hurts enters Week 12 with a 42-19 career record as the starting quarterback of the Philadelphia Eagles . For some unknown reason, NFL analysts — especially those who used to be journeymen quarterbacks in the league — continue to shade Philly’s QB1 despite the team’s 8-2 start to the season. The latest negative commentary came this week from ex-NFL quarterback Colt McCoy, who dropped this take on Hurts and the Eagles on his Clean Pocket podcast : “I really like Philly. Their offensive line is tremendous. A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert ... don’t forget Saquon Barkley. I mean, how can you forget him? He rushes for over 100 yards a game, catches like seven or eight balls a game, jumps over people backwards. I mean, this dude’s ridiculous. “My holdup is Jalen Hurts. You watch the game, and you go back and see the highlights, and it’s like, he doesn’t do anything crazy or special. He’s 18 of 30 for 200 yards and two touchdowns. It’s like, how does this happen? He rushes for two touchdowns a game with the ‘tush-push.’ ... I don’t see these big-time throws, or great reads, or awesome third-down conversions. Jalen just kind of figures it out and relies on everyone around him.” Wow. There’s a lot to unpack there. McCoy definitely sounds like someone who watches the highlights and checks the box scores. He doesn’t sound like someone who actually watches the Eagles play week to week. First of all, Hurts isn’t checking the ball down to Barkley “seven or eight” times per game. Barkley’s only been targeted five times in a game once through the first 11 weeks. His high for the season is four receptions. Despite all the claims to the contrary — and McCoy’s hardly the first — the Eagles actually do pass the football down the field. They enter Week 12 ranked top-10 in the NFL in average yards per completion (10.9). Hurts has plenty of “big-time” throws this season. He tossed an absolute dime to Brown to seal the win over Cleveland that kicked off this current six-game win streak. The win over the Packers featured a gutsy third-down conversion from Hurts to Smith right around the 2-minute warning. Hurts had a near perfect passer rating in outdueling Joe Burrow in Week 8. He continues to catch shade for his play against the Commanders, even though he led three consecutive touchdown drives in the fourth quarter and rushed for the go-ahead score. This whole line of commentary has become old hat. Philly’s offense runs through the offensive line, and that typically leads to run-heavy game scripts. Hurts currently ranks 23rd in the NFL in total pass attempts entering Week 12. The Eagles aren’t as dependent on the passing game as the average NFL team, which fuels the perception that their QB must not be that good. McCoy’s commentary on Hurts is certainly out there, and so was Ryan Fitzpatrick’s head-scratching take during last week’s Thursday Night Football postgame show. But as long as the Eagles continue to win games behind a dominant run game and smothering defense, the Hurts slander is sure to continue.

The explosive growth of the artificial intelligence (AI) market has minted a lot of millionaires. For example, a modest $3,000 investment in the AI chipmaker Nvidia just 10 years ago would be worth nearly $1.5 million today. But with a market cap of $3.6 trillion, it could be tough for Nvidia to replicate those millionaire-making gains over the next decade. Therefore, investors looking for those kinds of life-changing returns should seek out smaller companies that have more room to grow. I believe these three companies -- Symbotic (NASDAQ: SYM) , Serve Robotics (NASDAQ: SERV) , and Lemonade (NYSE: LMND) -- might just make the cut. Start Your Mornings Smarter! Wake up with Breakfast news in your inbox every market day. Sign Up For Free » 1. Symbotic Symbotic produces fully autonomous robots for processing pallets in warehouses. It claims a $50 million investment in just one of its modules (which includes its robots and software) can generate $250 million in lifetime savings over 25 years. Its top customer is Walmart , which tasked the company with automating all of its U.S. regional distribution centers over the next decade. That deal accounted for 88% of Symbotic's revenue in fiscal 2023 (which ended last September). Walmart is also one of Symbotic's leading investors. Symbotic is overwhelmingly dependent on Walmart, but it's been gaining additional major customers like Target , Albertsons , and C&S Wholesale. It's also providing more robots to GreenBox, a new warehouse-as-a-service joint venture it launched with its big backer SoftBank last year. Symbotic's revenue jumped 55% in fiscal 2024, and analysts expect its top line to keep growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 32% over the next two years as it continues to fulfill its long-term deal with Walmart and lock in new customers. Analysts also expect it to turn profitable on a generally accepted accounting principles ( GAAP ) basis in 2025. With an enterprise value of $3.1 billion, Symbotic's stock still looks cheap at 1.3 times this year's sales. It faces some near-term macro and competitive headwinds in the warehouse automation space, but it might just become a millionaire-maker stock over the next few years. 2. Serve Robotics Serve Robotics develops autonomous sidewalk delivery robots. It was originally created as a unit of Postmates, which was acquired by Uber Technologies in 2020. Uber spun off Serve in 2021, but it still uses its robots to fulfill some of Uber Eats' orders in Los Angeles. Serve still generates all of its revenue from Uber, and it only operated 59 active robots across the Los Angeles area in the third quarter of 2024. But in 2025, it plans to deploy up to 2,000 robots for Uber Eats across the L.A. and Dallas-Fort Worth metro areas. For 2024, analysts expect Serve to generate less than $2 million in revenue as it racks up a net loss of $34 million. But in 2025, they expect its revenue to jump to $13 million as it narrows its net loss to $31 million. In 2026, they see its revenue more than quadrupling to nearly $60 million as it narrows its net loss to $25 million. We should take those estimates with a grain of salt, but Serve's business could start gaining momentum as more businesses use its robots to make short-range deliveries. That growth could help it attract more customers to reduce its dependence on Uber. With an enterprise value of $379 million, Serve doesn't seem terribly expensive at 6 times its 2026 sales. It remains a highly speculative stock, but it could still have plenty of upside potential and counts Nvidia as one of its top investors. 3. Lemonade Lemonade is an online insurance company that simplifies the onboarding and claims process with its AI-powered chatbots. That simple digital-first approach made it popular with younger and first-time insurance buyers, and more than 70% of its customers were under the age of 35 at the time of its initial public offering in 2020. It initially only offered renters and homeowners insurance, but it now offers term life, pet health, and auto insurance policies. It ended its latest quarter with 2.31 million customers, compared to just over 1 million customers at the end of 2020. For 2024, Lemonade expects its in-force premiums to rise 26%, its gross earned premiums to grow 22%-23%, and its total revenue to increase 21%-22%. It also sees its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) improving from negative $173 million in 2023 to negative $151 million-$155 million in 2024. Lemonade hasn't proven its business model is sustainable yet, but it's growing much faster than its larger competitors. With an enterprise value of $2.9 billion, it trades at just 4 times next year's sales -- so it might generate millionaire-maker gains if it scales up its business, narrows its losses, and widens its moat.
