(NYSE: CMG) between February 8, 2024 and October 29, 2024, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”) and those who purchased Chipotle call options or sold put options during the Class Period, of the important January 10, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline in the securities class action first filed by the Firm. SO WHAT: If you purchased Chipotle securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Chipotle class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=30587 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email case@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than January 10, 2025 . A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers. DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Chipotle’s portion sizes were inconsistent and left many customers dissatisfied with Chipotle’s offerings; (2) in order to address the issue and retain customer loyalty, Chipotle would have to ensure more generous portion sizes, which would increase cost of sales; and (3) as a result, defendants’ statements about its business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

The premier said in a statement Friday that while the two parties are distinct and won't always agree, they have "many shared values." Eby's party won a bare majority with 47 seats in the October provincial election, while two Greens were elected and the B.C. Conservatives have 44 seats. He said the deal sets out specific areas of action they'll work together to achieve, which includes health care, affordable housing, creating livable communities and growing a strong, sustainable economy. "This agreement will strengthen the stability of government and help deliver on the priorities of British Columbians. We will continue to work with all MLAs who want to make the legislature work for people," Eby said. The stability of the NDP government got even shakier earlier this month when New Democrat Grace Lore announced she had cancer and was stepping away from her role as children's minister. B.C. Conservative Party Leader John Rustad has said he would work to bring the NDP government down if it continues with its "destructive policies."

VANCOUVER - A confidence agreement between British Columbia’s New Democrats and the provincial Green Party stabilizes David Eby’s bare-majority government, while putting Green election promises on the legislative agenda. The agreement announced Friday outlines the basis on which the Greens’ two-member caucus will provide confidence to Eby’s party, which won election with 47 seats in B.C.‘s 93-seat legislature in October’s provincial election. The deal features key elements of the Greens’ election platform, including a commitment to growing a community health centre model for primary care and expanding public coverage of psychology services at a cost of $50 million. Deputy premier Niki Sharma said the framework focuses on areas of agreement between the two parties, while recognizing their positions won’t always align. The balance struck is “a way to keep government stable for four years ... without erasing the distinct identity that we both have as political parties,” she said Friday. The seven-page agreement says the house leaders of the NDP and the Greens “agree to establish a relationship of trust based on good faith and no surprises.” While set to last four years, it is subject to annual agreement at each parties discretion. It was important to the Greens throughout the negotiations to be able to disagree with government positions, Sharma told a news conference. “I know that we’ll have differences of opinions moving forward, but the fact that we can show a pathway where two political parties in a time of great polarization can come together for British Columbians, I think is a profound thing.” The October election saw two new Green members win seats, lawyer Rob Botterell, representing Saanich North and the Islands, and geological engineer Jeremy Valeriote in West Vancouver-Sea to Sky, while the B.C. Conservatives won 44 seats. B.C. Conservative Leader John Rustad said after the election that he would work to bring the NDP government down if it continues with its “destructive policies.” When he was asked about the agreement on Friday, Rustad said he has always assumed the Greens would back the NDP. Eby is “fooling himself” if he thinks having the support of the Green Party is going to make it easier to pass legislation, Rustad said in an interview. “We are going to make it very difficult for him to move anything through the legislature that is continuing the destruction of British Columbia,” he said. “A week can be a long time in politics, so we’ll see what January brings. I don’t want to say anything further at this point.” The stability of Eby’s government had appeared shakier earlier this month when New Democrat Grace Lore announced she was temporarily stepping away due to a cancer diagnosis, though she said she intended to participate in important votes. Eby said in a statement Friday that the agreement with the Greens will “strengthen the stability of government and help deliver on the priorities of British Columbians.” While his party and the Greens are distinct and won’t always agree, the premier said they have “many shared values.” He said the deal sets out specific areas of action they will work together on, including health care, affordable housing, creating livable communities and growing a strong, sustainable economy. “We will continue to work with all MLAs who want to make the legislature work for people,” Eby said. Additional policy commitments outlined in the deal that reflect the Green platform include expanding access to housing aid for elderly renters and building 30,000 more units of non-market housing than the government had pledged. The agreement also commits to a review of B.C.‘s forests to “address concerns around sustainability, jobs, environmental protection an the future of the industry.” This report by The Canadian Press was first published Dec. 13, 2024.
The best cornerback and the most productive off-ball linebacker. The Green Bay Packers will have to overcome these two absences to beat the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, because Jaire Alexander and Edgerrin Cooper have been ruled out by head coach Matt LaFleur. At least, the other side is pretty affected by injuries as well, since Brock Purdy and Nick Bosa have been ruled out. Kyle Shanahan announced Brandon Allen as the starting QB for Green Bay. pic.twitter.com/2znMyRRP2W Jaire Alexander (knee) Cornerback Jaire Alexander won't play on Sunday against the 49ers . On Friday, one day after Alexander revealed he had a torn PCL , LaFleur said he is out this week, even though placing him on the injured reserve is not a consideration at this point. Alexander initially got hurt during the Jacksonville Jaguars game. He missed the Detroit Lions game and was better after the bye week, practicing the entire week. However, after aggravating the issue against the Chicago Bears, he missed practice throughout this week, an indication that he wouldn't be available to play versus the 49ers. Jaire Alexander has missed three games in 2024, two because of a groin injury he suffered earlier this season, and the Lions game because of the knee. Without Jaire, the Packers are expected to start Keisean Nixon and Carrington Valentine against the 49ers. Safety Javon Bullard will play in the slot. The other cornerbacks on the 53-man roster are Eric Stokes, Corey Ballentine, and Robert Rochell. Rookies Kamal Hadden and Kalen King are on the practice squad. Edgerrin Cooper (hamstring) Rookie Edgerrin Cooper is out because of a hamstring injury he suffered during Wednesday's practice . He did not practice on Thursday and Friday. LaFleur said there is concern regarding Cooper's availability in Week 13 as well, because it's a short week before the Miami Dolphins game on Thanksgiving. The Packers' options at off-ball linebacker are Quay Walker, Isaiah McDuffie, Eric Wilson, and fellow rookie Ty'Ron Hopper. Former first-round pick Jamin Davis is on the practice squad. Colby Wooden (shoulder) Defensive lineman Colby Wooden missed the Detroit Lions game because of a shoulder injury. He practiced on a limited basis on Wednesday and Thursday, but was a full participant on Friday. Now, he's officially listed as questionable play. Defensive tackle Kenny Clark (toe), running back Josh Jacobs (quadricep/calf), guard Elgton Jenkins (rest), center Josh Myers (wrist), tackle Rasheed Walker (knee), and safety Evan Williams (hamstring) are all off the injury report and good to go. Other side There are significant concerns for the 49ers as well. Quarterback Brock Purdy and edge rusher Nick Bosa have both been ruled out by head coach Kyle Shanahan. Meanwhile, left tackle Trent Williams is questionable with an ankle injury — he didn't practice the entire week. Brandon Allen is expected to start at quarterback, and Josh Dobbs will serve as the backup. 49ers rule out vs Packers QB Brock Purdy DE Nick Bosa CB Charvarius Ward PR Jacob Cowing LB Tatum Bethune DT Kevin Givens Q LT Trent Williams C/G Jon Feliciano This article first appeared on A to Z Sports and was syndicated with permission.
NVidia’s Wall Street Surge! What Gamers Need to Know NowPresident-elect Donald Trump on Friday offered a public show of support for Pete Hegseth, his embattled choice to lead the Defense Department, whose confirmation by the Senate is in doubt as he faces questions over allegations of excessive drinking, sexual assault and his views on women in combat. Hegseth, a former Fox News Host, Army National Guard major and combat veteran, spent much of the week on Capitol Hill trying to salvage his Cabinet nomination and privately reassure Republican senators that he is fit to lead Trump’s Pentagon. “Pete Hegseth is doing very well,” Trump posted on his social media site. “He will be a fantastic, high energy, Secretary of Defense." The president added that "Pete is a WINNER, and there is nothing that can be done to change that!!!” The pitched nomination battle over Hegseth is emerging as not only as a debate about the best person to lead the Pentagon, but an inflection point for a MAGA movement that appears to be relishing a public fight over its hardline push for a more masculine military and an end to the “woke-ism" of diversity, equity and inclusion efforts. Trump’s allies are forcefully rallying around the embattled Hegseth – the Heritage Foundation’s political arm is promising to spend $1 million to shore up his nomination – as he vows to stay in the fight, as long as the president-elect wants him to. “We’re going to earn those votes,” Hegseth said on Capitol Hill this week. “As long as Donald Trump wants me in this fight, I’m going to be standing right here.” The effort quickly become a test of Trump’s clout and of how far loyalty for the president-elect goes with Republican senators who have concerns about his nominees. Two of Trump's other choices have stepped aside as they faced intense scrutiny: former congressman Matt Gaetz, his first choice for attorney general; and Chad Chronister, a Florida sheriff who was Trump’s first choice to lead the Drug Enforcement Administration. The president's son Donald J. Trump Jr, also made a show of support for Hegseth on Friday, part of a full-court MAGA press. “If you’re a GOP Senator who voted for Lloyd Austin, but criticize @PeteHegseth, then maybe you’re in the wrong political party!” he wrote on X. referring to Biden's defense secretary. Hegseth has promised not to drink on the job and told lawmakers he never engaged in sexual misconduct, even as his professional views on female troops have also come under intensifying scrutiny. He said as recently as last month that women “straight up” should not serve in combat. He picked up one important endorsement from Republican Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama, whose support was seen as a potentially powerful counterweight to the cooler reception Hegseth had received from Sen. Joni Ernst, herself a former Army National Guard lieutenant colonel. “Huge. Thanks to Katie for her leadership,” Vice President-elect JD Vance posted on social media. Ernst, who is also a sexual assault survivor, stopped short of an endorsement after her meeting with Hegseth this week. She said she appreciates his military service and they “had a frank and thorough conversation.” On Friday, Trump put out the statement in response to coverage saying he had lost faith in Hegseth, according to a person familiar with his thinking who was not authorized to discuss it publicly. The president-elect and his team have been pleased to see Hegseth putting up a fight and his performance this week reiterates why he was chosen, the person said. They believe he can still be confirmed. If Hegseth goes down, Trump's team believes the defeat would empower others to spread what they cast as “vicious lies” against every candidate Trump chooses. Still, Trump's transition team has been looking at potential replacements if Hegseth's nomination cannot move forward, including former presidential rival Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. DeSantis plans to attend the Army-Navy football game with Trump on Dec. 14, according to a person familiar with the Florida governor’s plans who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity to discuss them before a public announcement. And DeSantis and Trump had spoken about the defense secretary post when they saw each other Tuesday at a memorial service for sheriff deputies in West Palm Beach, Florida, according people familiar with the matter who said Trump was interested in DeSantis for the post, and the governor was receptive. At the same time, DeSantis also is poised to select a replacement for the expected Senate vacancy to be created by Marco Rubio becoming secretary of state, and Trump’s daughter-in-law Lara Trump is seen as the preferred choice by those in Trump’s orbit. Despite a weeklong push of private Capitol Hill meetings, Hegseth is facing resistance from senators as reports have emerged about his past, including the revelation that he made a settlement payment after being accused of a sexual assault that he denies. The New Yorker cited what it described as a whistleblower report and other documents about his time leading a veterans advocacy group, Concerned Veterans for America, that alleged multiple incidents of alcohol intoxication at work events, inappropriate behavior around female staffers and financial mismanagement. The New York Times obtained an email from his mother Penelope from 2018, in which she confronted him about mistreating women after he impregnated his current wife while he was married to his second wife. She went on “Fox & Friends” this week to defend her son. Trump ally Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., said senators are judging “Pete for who he is today.” In many ways the increasingly pitched battle resembles the political and culture wars that exploded over Trump’s pick of Brett Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court during his first term at the White House. Kavanaugh had also faced allegations of sexual assault that he strenuously denied, but Republicans rallied to his side and turned a tide of opposition into a more sympathetic view of the Supreme Court nominee as the victim of a liberal-led smear campaign. He eventually won confirmation. While Hegseth was still fighting for votes in the Senate, he did appear to make incremental progress with some Republicans who had expressed concerns about the reports of his drinking, in particular. “I’m not going to make any decision regarding Pete Hegseth’s nomination based on anonymous sources,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. North Dakota Sen. Kevin Cramer said of the allegations against Hegseth, “I have no reason to doubt him any more than believe somebody else.” Still, Cramer indicated he could still change his mind. A background check “will be informative.” Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., said after meeting with Hegseth that he wanted to see how he does in a hearing but “he went a long way” toward getting his support.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) did not rule out the possibility of him rejoining the Republican Party, stating that he was “part of the American Party.” During an interview with Spectrum News NY1, Adams spoke about how he loved the United States, and how his “19-year-old nephew” had died while fighting in Vietnam. Between April 1995-November 2002, Adams was registered as a Republican, prior to joining the Democrat Party, according to the outlet. “Would you ever consider rejoining the GOP?” Adams was asked. “The party that’s the most important for me is the American Party,” Adams responded. “I’m a part of the American Party. I love this country. This is the home of the free, land of the brave. My 19-year-old nephew died on the fields of Vietnam protecting what this city and this country represents, and that’s the party I’m going to always be a member of.” Adams noted that while he had served as a police officer for 22 years, he had been a member of the American Party, and he would continue to be a member of the American Party while wearing a blue suit “as the mayor of the city of New York.” Politico reported that in another interview on Pix11 News, Adams explained that whether he was registered as a Republican or Democrat, he would “push for American values.” “No matter what party I’m on or vote on, I’m going to push for American values,” Adams said. Adams’ comments come as he has previously criticized President Joe Biden over the “record-breaking” levels of illegal immigration to the country and has expressed a willingness to work with President-elect Donald Trump and the incoming Trump administration to deport criminal illegal migrants. The New York City mayor has also expressed that he “would love to sit down with” Tom Homan, who Trump selected to serve as the “Border Czar,” and hear Homan’s “thoughts on how we’re going to address those who are harming our citizens.” Adams has also defended Trump against claims from Democrats and the mainstream media that he is a “fascist” and has stated that people need to “dial down the temperature” with their rhetoric in conversations. Adams has also previously noted that he knows “what Hitler has done” and knows “what a fascist regime looks like.”Bathinda: BJP received a setback in Handiaya village near Barnala as former district president and two-time councillor Gurmeet Singh, along with several others, joined AAP in the presence of AAP president Aman Arora on Wednesday.
