Ozempic Underworld — The Black Market Of Weight Loss Drugs CNBC 2024-10-09 | A CNBC investigation finds that Novo Nordisk’s Ozempic and Wegovy as well as other wildly popular obesity drugs are being actively counterfeited and illegally diverted from other countries in open marketplaces online and shipped at cut rate prices to the U.S. We uncover one such company that appears to be based in Colorado, but is really operating from China, as we tracked down the location, shipping Ozempic from the Chinese market to the U.S. CNBC goes inside this shadowy world from New York to outside London to Turkey and China, interviewing government officials as well as Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly, which manufacturers Mounjaro and Zepbound. Ozempic pens seized in the UK were filled with insulin, which could be fatal. Inside the international mail facility at JFK airport in Jamaica, N.Y., U.S. Customs officers seize counterfeit and Ozempic diverted from overseas and other weight loss drugs with the numbers doubling over the past year.

Your Robotaxi Is Here, But Can You Trust It? CNBC 2024-10-07 | Driverless cars are speeding onto America’s streets, but whether the public will trust robotaxis remains an open question.Nearly two-thirds of Americans said they would not want to ride in a driverless passenger vehicle if they had the opportunity, according to a Pew Research Center survey. That’s because residents in cities that have yet to experience robotaxis remain unfamiliar with the technology while those in cities with driverless cabs have not yet forgotten about high-profile accidents involving other companies, like GM-owned Cruise. Now Tesla, the loudest and most bullish self-driving proponent of them all, is due to unveil its long-awaited robotaxi after years of unfulfilled promises. The company’s existing Full Self-Driving technology, where a human is still at the wheel, has drawn the scrutiny of regulators and multiple lawsuits after hundreds of crashes. Experts say a great presentation from CEO Elon Musk won’t guarantee a safe robotaxi network. Tesla’s upcoming robotaxi launch threatens to throw the whole autonomous vehicle space off course.Alphabet-owned Waymo is the leader in the space in the U.S., with the company claiming it has notched more than 22 million driverless miles. It has proven that there is strong consumer demand, with weekly paid rides in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Phoenix and Austin doubling in just a couple months. And Waymo has worked on building its reputation, launching an online safety hub with data arguing that its cars are safer than human drivers.Besides Tesla, other competitors are also looking to jump into the race. Amazon says it is getting ready to roll out its fleet of Zoox cars, and Cruise is resuming operations after a 2023 accident led regulators to ground the fleet. Wall Street is already looking ahead to a driverless future, with one analyst arguing that if it hadn’t been for generative AI, 2024 would have been the year of the robotaxi.CNBC’s Deirdre Bosa speaks to Waymo riders in San Francisco and folks on the street in New York City to find out whether Americans are ready for robotaxis.Chapters:1:17 Chapter 1 - Your robotaxi is here6:14 Chapter 2 - Can you trust it?10:48 Chapter 3 - An autonomous worldAnchor: Deirdre BosaProduced by: Jasmine Wu, Laura Batchelor, Drew TroastEdited by: Lisa SetyonSupervising Producer: Jeniece PettittField Production: Jessica XingAnimation by: Jason Reginato, Chrsitina LocopoAdditional Footage: Getty Images, Waymo, Zoox, Wayve, Tesla» Subscribe to CNBC: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC» Subscribe to CNBC TV: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBCtelevisionAbout CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.

Why Macy’s And Other Brands Are Moving Into Strip Malls CNBC 2024-10-06 | U.S. adults make about 1.3 billion visits to shopping centers each month or about 62 trips per person annually, according to the International Council of Shopping Centers.While some outlets, like malls, have struggled to retain shoppers, foot traffic to strip malls is booming.Data compiled by analytics company RetailStat shows annual visits to strip malls surged 18% last year compared with prior to the pandemic.Convenient shopping options, hybrid work and millennials moving to fast-growing suburbs are driving that trend."Lines are shorter because of smaller stores, parking is easier, they're usually on your way home from dropping your kid off at school or on your way home from work," said real estate attorney Jessica Vara of Hunton Andrews Kurth.And retailers are trying to get a slice of the action. Macy's announced last year it was opening 30 new small format stores in off-mall locations. The new stores, about a fifth the size of traditional stores, offer a slimmed-down selection, according to the retailer.But strip malls face criticism for being an eyesore to their communities, adding to environmental problems and contributing to the demise of traditional business districts.The U.S. has more than 68,000 strip malls from coast to coast, according to the International Council of Shopping Centers.So how did the U.S. become covered in strip centers, and could the format be the future of brick-and-mortar retail?Chapters:0:00 - 1:46 Introduction 1:47 - 4:39 Chapter 1.

What’s Keeping Middle Class Salaries Low? CNBC 2024-10-04 | Between 1979 and 2024, productivity in the U.S. soared by 80.9%, while hourly pay grew by just 29.4% during the same period. In June 2024, two-thirds of middle-income households reported that their income was falling behind the cost of living. This trend has often been referred to as ‘wage stagnation’.

Will Tesla Robotaxis Live Up To 10 Years Of Development And Hype? CNBC 2024-10-02 | For a decade, Elon Musk has championed the idea that one day Tesla cars will drive themselves as robotaxis. On October 10, the company plans to reveal a “dedicated robotaxi” design at an invitation-only event in Los Angeles.Despite years of bold predictions and missed deadlines, fans of the company are holding out hope that Musk will finally deliver. Regardless of what the company showcases at its robotaxi day, experts are skeptical of the company’s strategy, citing its Auotpilot and Full Self-Driving technology as a barometer for Tesla’s progress, or lack thereof.While Tesla has been developing its autonomous vehicles, competitors like Google-owned Waymo and Chinese companies like Pony.ai and Baidu have already launched commercial robotaxi services.With U.S. EV sales growth slowing, there’s a lot riding on Tesla’s potential pivot to autonomy. CNBC explores whether the company is ready for robotaxis and if Musk’s vision for driverless Teslas will become a reality anytime soon.Correction:2:41 The event date is mislabeled. The correct event is the Tesla Annual Shareholder Meeting, which occurred on June 13, 2024.Chapters:3:18 Ch 1 - Tesla’s vision for autonomy6:33 Ch 2 - Full self-driving10:13 Ch 3 - Realizing the robotaxi15:34 Ch 4 - Sizing up the robotaxi competitionProduced and Shot by: Andrew EversAdditional Reporting: Lora KolodnyEdited by: Andrew Evers, Erin BlackSupervising Producer: Jeniece PettittAdditional Camera: Katie Tarasov, Lisa SetyonGraphics by: Jason ReginatoNarration: Robert FerrisAdditional Footage: Cruise, Getty Images, Tesla, Waymo, Zoox» Subscribe to CNBC: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC» Subscribe to CNBC TV: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBCtelevisionAbout CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.

So far, about 42,324 tech employees were let go in 2024, according toLayoffs.fyi, which tracks layoffs in the tech industry.While layoffs have put stress on the workforce, a booming artificial intelligence market is giving the industry a renewed sense of optimism. Generative AI startup deals announced or finalized in the first quarter of this year totaled more than $12 billion compared to about $4.5 billion invested in the space last year, according to PitchBook.On July 16, 2023, Canada opened visa applications for a pilot program that would allow up to 10,000 H-1B visa holders in the United States to apply for a three-year open-work permit in Canada. H-1B holders are highly educated and specialized foreign workers that work in fields such as tech. After massive layoffs in the tech industry, this was a lifeline for H-1B holders who needed to find a new job or face deportation.Chapters:00:00 Introduction00:47 Why Widespread Tech Layoffs Keep Happening Despite A Strong U.S. Economy (Published February 2024)13:01 Where Thousands Of Tech Workers Went After Mass Layoffs (Published August 2023)26:46 How The U.S. Lost Thousands Of High-Skilled Workers To Canada (Published November 2023)Produced by: Anuz Thapa, Shawn Baldwin, Sydney BoyoEdited by: Michael Hoyt, Nic Henry, Sydney BoyoNarration by: Jordan SmithGraphics by: Jason Reginato, Christina Locopo, Alex Wood, Josh KalvenSupervising Producers: Jeff Morganteen, Jeniece Pettitt, Lindsey JacobsonCamera by: Andrew EversAdditional Footage: Getty Images, CSPAN, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, Government of CanadaAdditional Editing: Emily Rabbideau» Subscribe to CNBC: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC» Subscribe to CNBC TV: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBCtelevisionAbout CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.

Why Automakers EV Factory Investments Arent Paying Off In The U.S. CNBC 2024-09-25 | Automakers aren’t selling as many cars as they used to, and the EV transition is a lot rockier and slower than some expected. This means there’s a lot of factory space in North America and around the world that is sitting empty and unused. Some companies especially challenged are Ford, GM, and Stellantis, Nissan, and EV makers such as Tesla and Rivian. That could mean billion dollar losses, job cuts, and chaos in the supply chain.

Why Elon Musk Is Betting Big On Supercomputers To Boost Tesla And xAI CNBC 2024-09-23 | Elon Musk has big plans for how artificial intelligence can help to propel his businesses forward. The tech titan founded xAI, a new AI venture, in 2023 to develop large language models and AI products, like its chatbot Grok, as an alternative to AI tools being created by OpenAI, Microsoft and Google. In June, it was announced that xAI would build a multi-billion dollar supercomputer, called Colossus, in Memphis, Tennessee to carry out the task of training Grok. Musk thinks supercomputers can also transform Tesla from a car company to an AI and robotics company. In August, Musk teased Tesla’s AI supercomputer cluster called “Cortex” on X. Cortex is being built at Tesla’s Austin, Texas headquarters. Back in January, Tesla also announced that it planned to spend $500 million on a custom-built Dojo supercomputer in Buffalo, New York. The job of these supercomputers is to process and train AI models using the huge amounts of video and data captured by Tesla vehicles and improve Tesla’s suite of driver assistance features, which the company calls Autopilot, as well as its more robust Full Self-Driving or FSD system. Despite their names, neither Autopilot nor FSD make Tesla vehicles autonomous and require active driver supervision. But reaching full autonomy is critical for Tesla, whose sky-high valuation is largely dependent on bringing robotaxis to market, according to some analysts. Finally, supercomputers can also be used to train Tesla’s humanoid robot, Optimus. Watch the video to learn more about why Musk has been building a slew of supercomputers.Chapters01:55 - Supercomputers and xAI05:08 - Supercomputers and Tesla11:03 - Challenges and future outlookProduced by: Magdalena PetrovaAdditional Camera: Andrew EversEdited by: Nora RappaprtAnimation: Josh KalvenSupervising Producer: Jeniece PettittEditorial Support: Lora KolodnyAdditional Footage: Getty Images, Tesla» Subscribe to CNBC: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC» Subscribe to CNBC TV: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBCtelevisionAbout CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.

Why EU’s Tariffs Won’t Stop Chinese EVs CNBC 2024-09-16 | Critics say the European Union’s provisional tariffs on Chinese EVs could raise prices, reduce choice and slow the pace with which the EU meets its climate change mitigation targets. Some European automakers, especially those from Germany, oppose them. They also might not be high enough to actually stop the tide of Chinese imports. And yet supporters say these measures are necessary to offset the harm done by China’s pattern of generously subsidizing its own industries and subsequently crushing global competition.Chapters:01:37 Why EU’s tariffs won’t stop Chinese EVs01:43 Chapter 1.

How Your Taxes May Change After 2025 CNBC 2024-09-09 | The majority of Americans, 56%, say they pay too much in federal income tax, according to an April 2024 Gallup poll. Only 22% believe they receive valuable services from those taxes, according to an AP-NORC January 2024 survey. If the 2017 tax cuts are allowed to expire in 2025, about 62% of taxpayers would see their bills go up, according to the Tax Foundation. This means the 2024 election will determine which political party will get to shape Americans' taxes for years to come.Chapters:0:00 Introduction1:38 Trump's plan5:15 Harris' plan10:21 Taxes on corporationsProduced by: Charlotte MorabitoAdditional Reporting by: Kate DoreEdited by: Nora RapapportAdditional Editing by: Andrea MillerAnimation: Jason ReginatoSupervising Producer: Lindsey JacobsonAdditional Footage: Getty Images» Subscribe to CNBC: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC» Subscribe to CNBC TV: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBCtelevisionAbout CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.

Why Rivian And VW Both Need Each Other CNBC 2024-09-08 | After a staggeringly successful IPO, Rivian shares and market value have plummeted. With interest rates high and funding drying up, some analysts say the electric SUV and truck maker is potentially just a couple of programs away from bankruptcy. However, in 2024 it received a big shot in the arm—a $5 billion investment from German automaker, Volkswagen Group. VW, the second largest automaker in the world, has a lot to offer Rivian. But it needs something in return. CNBC examines exactly what that is and why it could be revolutionary for the auto industry.Chapters:00:00 - 01:05 Title card - Why VW and Rivian need each other01:12 Chapter 1 - Bleeding Cash04:32 Chapter 2 - Volkswagen8:49 Chapter 3 - The secret sauce 11:49 Chapter 4 - Future Producer: Robert FerrisEditor: Evan Lee MillerAnimation: Christina LocopoSenior Managing Producer: Tala HadaviAdditional footage: Bentley, CARIAD, Ford, Getty Images, General Motors, Lamborghini, Mazda, Porsche, Rivian, Scout Motors, Stellantis, Volkswagen» Subscribe to CNBC: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC» Subscribe to CNBC TV: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBCtelevisionAbout CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.

How Disney Vacations Became Too Expensive For Many Americans CNBC 2024-09-06 | Once a right of passage for most American families, theme parks like Disney World and Disneyland are quickly becoming out of reach for many middle class American families. Over the past 10 years, the average cost for a Disney World single-park ticket has increased more than 56%, above the national rate of inflation of 32% in the same period. And that doesn’t include the cost of food, merchandise, lightning lane, hotels and airfare. The average cost of a five-night Disney World vacation for a family of four in 2024, with all the bells and whistles, comes in at around $5,000, according to Wolfe Research. In its Q3 2024 earnings, Disney said its parks and experiences segment felt pressure due to lower consumer demand and inflation. This is a trend that is industry wide — Comcast’s Universal Studios also experienced a drop in attendance in 2024. Disney World is the most visited theme park in the world, but have recent price increases pushed inflation-weary Americans away? Will Disney trips continue to be a staple of American childhoods or is it becoming a luxury?

How The U.S. Is Pumping More Oil Than Any Country In History CNBC 2024-09-04 | The U.S. is produced more oil than it ever has in 2023, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. In fact, this record marks the most oil ever produced in a year by any country in the history of the world. Both the oil and gas industry and the renewable energy industry are receiving billions of dollars in government support, primarily via subsidies. The Inflation Reduction Act is providing $369 billion to combat climate change, and $270 billion will be delivered through tax incentives. “We’re building out the infrastructure for clean energy, but we can’t retire the infrastructure for oil because we’re still using it,” Amy Myers Jaffe of New York University’s Energy, Climate Justice and Sustainability Lab, told CNBC. Here’s how the U.S. became the largest oil producer of all-time in 2023 — and what that means for the green energy transition.Chapters:0:00 Introduction01:32 Ch. 1: Record oil production04:37 Ch. 2: Government support07:17 Ch. 3: Renewables transition11:26 Ch. 4: What’s next?Produced and Edited by: Andrea MillerAnimation: Christina LocopoSupervising Producer: Lindsey JacobsonAdditional Footage: Getty Images» Subscribe to CNBC: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC» Subscribe to CNBC TV: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBCtelevisionAbout CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.

Why It’s So Hard To Build Nuclear Power Plants In The U.S. CNBC 2024-09-03 | Plant Vogtle, a nuclear power plant in Waynesboro, Ga., is the largest source of clean energy in the U.S. following the addition of two new reactors, according to Georgia Power. The plant's Unit 4 reactor began commercial operations in April and Unit 3 went online last year. They are the first reactors built from scratch and connected to the grid in over three decades and together can power over a million homes and businesses, according to the utility provider.But bringing a nuclear power plant to life is difficult and costly. The two new reactors at Plant Vogtle were initially budgeted at $14 billion, but that price tag more than doubled. The project also ran seven years behind schedule."We had some challenges, it was an arduous journey, things that we didn't anticipate," said Chris Womack, CEO of Southern Company. "From the tsunami in Fukushima to the contractor going bankrupt to Covid. There were a number of things that occurred.The U.S. has 54 operating nuclear power plants and 94 reactors, making it the world's largest producer of nuclear power -- accounting for 30% of global nuclear electricity, according to the World Nuclear Association.But reactors in the U.S. are 42 years old on average, and they're getting older. Replacing them is a complex task.So why is it so hard to build nuclear reactors in the U.S. and should the new Vogtle reactors be a blueprint or a cautionary tale for the future?Chapters:0:00 - 2:25 Introduction 2:26 - 6:04 Chapter 1.

How Google, Microsoft And Amazon Are Raiding AI Startups For Talent CNBC 2024-08-30 | Microsoft, Google and Amazon, along with other tech companies, have been getting creative in how they’re poaching talent from top artificial intelligence startups. Earlier this month, Google inked an unusual deal with Character.ai to hire away its prominent founder, Noam Shazeer, along with more than one-fifth of its workforce while also licensing its technology. It looked like an acquisition, but the deal was structured so that it wasn’t. Google wasn’t the first to take this approach.In March, Microsoft signed a deal with Inflection that allowed Microsoft to use Inflection’s models and to hire most of the startup’s staff. Amazon followed in June with a faux acquisition of Adept where it hired top talent from the AI startup and licensed its technology.It’s a playbook that skirts regulators and their crackdown on Big Tech dominance, provides an exit for AI startups struggling to make money, and allows megacaps to pick up the talent needed in the AI arms race.But while tech giants might think they’re outsmarting antitrust enforcers, they could be playing with fire. CNBC’s Deirdre Bosa has the story.Chapters:00:00 Introduction 00:50 - Pseudo acquisitions5:41 - Playing with fire7:13 - Who’s left holding the bagAnchor: Deirdre BosaProduced by: Laura Batchelor, Jasmine WuEdited by: Andrew EversSupervising Producer: Jeniece PettittAdditional Footage: Character.ai, Getty Images» Subscribe to CNBC: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC» Subscribe to CNBC TV: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBCtelevisionAbout CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.

How A Strong Dollar Can Backfire On The U.S. Economy CNBC 2024-08-21 | In 2022, the U.S. dollar reached its highest level since the early 2000s, but the dollar index has been trending downward as of August 2024. A weaker dollar is not necessarily a bad thing for consumers. A strong dollar may lead to higher prices for American consumers and reduced demand for U.S. exports, which can result in layoffs in key industries. Managing the value of the dollar is a balancing act, which can present challenges for the U.S. president, the Federal Reserve and other policymakers.Chapters:0:00 Introduction1:37 Why the value of the dollar matters2:56 Why the dollar skyrocketed6:03 How the president can impact the dollarProduced by: Charlotte MorabitoAdditional Reporting by: Jeff Cox, Gina FrancollaAdditional Camera by: Juhohn Lee, Emily RabbideauEdited by: Nora RapapportAnimation: Christina LocopoSupervising Producer: Lindsey JacobsonAdditional Footage: Getty Images, Reuters» Subscribe to CNBC: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC» Subscribe to CNBC TV: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBCtelevisionAbout CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.

Why Airlines Like American Are Scrambling To Make Engines Last Longer CNBC 2024-08-20 | A jet engine is the most important part of a commercial airplane. And repairing them has become a $58 billion dollar business. (Source: AeroDynamic Advisory)A commercial jet engine is a complex, expensive machine, made up of thousands of parts. Engines typically stay in service for about 30 years and need to be taken off wing and overhauled roughly every 5-8 years. An engine overhaul can range from $4-15 million dollars. The process involves disassembling it and replacing all the worn or damaged parts like blades which can cost up to $30,000 a piece.While passengers are flying in record numbers, manufacturing and supply chain problems have persisted post-pandemic. Boeing and Airbus delays on new aircraft have forced some airlines to fly older planes longer to keep up with demand. And the after market has been booming for older engines.Demand for old engines, coupled with an engine recall has led to long delays in maintenance shops. Before the supply chain issues, a typical narrowbody engine took 60-75 days to overhaul and that time has gone up in some cases to over 200 days.While hundreds of airlines use outside companies, legacy carriers like Delta and American Airlines perform engine maintenance in-house.American said it’s on track to increase engine overhauls by 60% compared to past year. CNBC traveled to Tulsa, Oklahoma to get an inside look at how it works and explores the outlook for the market.Correction 1:14 - The date this Reuters article was published was September 11, 2023.Chapters:2:06 How engines work 3:23 Engine market 5:40 How engines are maintained 9:35 Supply chain problemsProduced, shot and edited by: Erin Black Animations by: Jason Reginato Supervising Producer: Jeniece Pettitt Editorial Support: Leslie Josephs» Subscribe to CNBC: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBC» Subscribe to CNBC TV: https://cnb.cx/SubscribeCNBCtelevisionAbout CNBC: From 'Wall Street' to 'Main Street' to award winning original documentaries and Reality TV series, CNBC has you covered.
