VALPARAISO, Ind. (AP) — Valparaiso hired longtime Marietta coach Andy Waddle as its new football coach, athletic director Laurel Hosmer announced Monday. Waddle is scheduled to be formally introduced on campus Wednesday. He spent the last 12 seasons turning around the Division III program located in Southeastern Ohio. There, he went 55-61 after inheriting a winless team. He led the Pioneers to their first 8-0 start last season and matched the 1920 squad’s school record with a 13-game winning streak that started in 2023. In 2024, Marietta made its first postseason appearance since 1973. Waddle went 16-5 over the past two seasons and produced seven winning records over the last eight seasons. The Pioneers had only two winning seasons in the previous 20 years. “I think there is a great group of young men on the (Valparaiso) roster, and we’re excited to invest in those student-athletes and continue to add more high-quality people and football players to the program,” Waddle said of the program located in Indiana’s northwest corner. “I think Valpo is not only an outstanding fit for me professionally, but also an outstanding fit for me and my family.” Waddle spent eight seasons working with the defense as an assistant for his alma mater, Wittenberg, where he was an all-conference defensive back. He also has coached at Mansfield University in Pennsylvania and at Maryville College in Tennessee. “His experience building success and winning culture as a head coach, passion for developing student-athletes on and off the field and high character made it clear he was the right leader for our football program,” Hosmer said in a statement. The move comes two weeks after Hosmer announced the school would not give Landon Fox a contract extension after his deal expired. Fox was 21-42 in six seasons at Valparaiso. ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up . AP college football: andNEW YORK , Dec. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- It is with profound sadness that TGM mourns the death of its Co-founder and Managing Principal, Steven C. Macy (1949-2024). Steve, real estate executive, husband, brother, uncle, friend, mentor, proud parent and grandparent, and oracle of wisdom who told endless anecdotes, died in New York on December 2 nd . Steve was a dynamic leader with a breadth of interests and knowledge that matched his energy, enthusiasm, and drive. He was born and raised in Dayton, Ohio . Steve co-founded TGM Associates L.P. ("TGM") with Thomas Gochberg in July 1991 . TGM provides an integrated suite of asset and property management services to large, global institutions, including state pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, corporate pension plans, and high-net-worth individuals. Prior to co-founding TGM, Steve worked at Smith Barney Real Estate and its successor company, Security Capital, where he first met Thomas Gochberg . Steve also worked for Integrated Resources, where he headed Integrated's national portfolio of 32,000 apartments. Steve was responsible for overseeing Smith Barney's nationwide property management operations and is recognized by some as one of the principal creators of the national property management business. Prior to his tenure at Smith Barney, real estate investment was predominantly a local and regional business, and Steve was responsible for creating an organization that was national in scope and capable of efficiently managing a portfolio stretching from coast to coast. He replicated this process twice more while at Integrated Resources and TGM. Steve was profiled in Bloomberg Businessweek's Executive Profile Directory for multiple years. He was also awarded the Institute of Real Estate Management's Certified Property Manager designation and was instrumental in TGM's designation as an Accredited Management Organization by that same institution. Steve's Real Estate affiliations included being a member of the Institute of Real Estate Management, the National Multi Housing Council (he served on the Board of Directors from 1990 to 1991), the National Apartment Association, and the Pension Real Estate Association. Steve was a member and patron of numerous New York social and cultural institutions and was an active member of the New York City Catholic Diocese. He accompanied Cardinal Dolan and his predecessor, Cardinal Egan, as members of their entourage on several visits to the Vatican, where Steve met sitting Popes. Steve was also an active member of St. Ignatius Loyola's congregation on the Upper East Side of Manhattan . Steve also enjoyed traveling with his Jesuit friends, including attending several silent retreats and several trips to Israel . Steve and his wife Emi had a plethora of shared interests that included volunteering, cooking, and good food (Steve was an excellent cook and enjoyed preparing meals for all), and was an adventurous traveler. Steve had an amazing rolodex of excellent restaurants from all the places he visited and usually a good story or two from the times he frequented them. Steve dedicated significant time to mentoring young minds in search of wisdom. He once published his feelings on how to lead a "successful life" which reflected those tenets that resonated deeply with him and were evident to any person that he came in contact with. In short, Steve stated that if you wanted to change the world: Steve is survived by his wife Emi; children Christopher, Tiffany, Alexa, and Akane; grandchildren Todd Jr., Tess, Tanner and Tom; his sister Karen; and many cousins, nieces and nephews. He will be missed by all.

The conversion price for the Convertible Notes and exercise price for the Warrants are $1.16 and $1.392 per share, respectively, subject to adjustment as set forth therein. The shares of common stock underlying the Convertible Notes and Warrants issued in the Financing are currently unregistered, subject to trading restrictions, and not immediately tradable. The Financing is subject to customary closing conditions. For additional information regarding the material terms relating to the Financing, please see the Company’s Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC on December 23, 2024. “The new funding lays a solid foundation for both FF and its new brand as the Company approaches the end of 2024 and enters the new year,” said Matthias Aydt, Global CEO of FF “I am optimistic about the opportunities that this new funding will bring, including supporting the ongoing production of our FF 91 2.0 and the growth of the FX brand,” Aydt explained. “We are pleased to have supported FF in successfully completing this round of financing,” said Jerry Wang, President of FF Global Partners and Head of Corporate Development, FFIE (Consultant), “We are enthusiastic about the promising opportunities ahead for the FX brand, and we firmly believe in FF's ability to execute its strategy effectively and deliver significant value in the process.” The Convertible Notes, along with the Warrants, were offered and sold in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to the exemption for transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. Accordingly, the Convertible Notes, Warrants and underlying shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes and exercise of the Warrants may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such applicable state securities laws. The Company has agreed to file one or more registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes and exercise of the Warrants issued in connection with the Financing. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the convertible notes, nor shall it constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.

10-man Barcelona concedes two late goals in draw at Celta Vigo
J.B. Hunt Transport Services Inc. stock outperforms competitors on strong trading dayThe semiconductor industry, renowned for its impressive growth over past decades, is rallying on the back of artificial intelligence (AI) advancements. Though economic slowdowns raise concerns, the demand for cutting-edge devices continues to boost the need for more sophisticated chips. A recent IDC report forecasts a 15% expansion in the semiconductor market by 2025, driven by AI. This development could present a prime opportunity for investors, especially in stocks like Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Micron Technology (MU), which have seen a dip in their stock values despite healthy revenue growth in the data center sector. AMD, which has seen a significant increase in its server CPU market share, anticipates a surge in demand for its GPUs within data centers. This promising demand outlook resonates with Wall Street’s optimistic predictions for AMD’s stock, which currently trades significantly below its peak. The company forecasts that the market for AI accelerators will grow substantially, suggesting a long-term growth trajectory. Meanwhile, Micron Technology, a leader in memory and storage solutions, has enjoyed a notable recovery since 2022. Despite recent market fluctuations, Micron’s sales to data centers have soared, particularly with their high-bandwidth memory outperforming expectations. The company remains optimistic about returning to record revenue by 2025, but unknown variables in demand make future predictions challenging. Both AMD and Micron present tantalizing prospects for 2025, yet AMD’s consistent growth positions it as a potentially safer bet for investors aiming to capitalize on Wall Street’s bullish outlook. Why the Semiconductor Boom Driven by AI Presents Unmatched Opportunities The semiconductor industry is poised for an exhilarating transformation sparked by advancements in artificial intelligence (AI). With a projected market expansion of 15% by 2025, as reported by IDC, AI is set to redefine the landscape while offering exceptional investment prospects.

Emerging Trends and Innovations The semiconductor sector is experiencing groundbreaking innovations, particularly in AI-specific chip design. Companies like Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Micron Technology are leading this charge with their focus on developing high-performance chips for AI applications. AMD’s strategic investment in GPU technology gears up to power more robust and efficient AI processors, while Micron’s advancements in high-bandwidth memory are setting new benchmarks in data handling capabilities. Investment Opportunities and Predictions For investors keen to enter the semiconductor market, the dip in stock values of key players like AMD and Micron Technology presents an attractive entry point. Analysts remain optimistic about these stocks, with a consensus on AMD’s continued growth driven by increased demand for GPUs in data centers. Predictions indicate a substantial rise in AI accelerator market share, hinting at AMD’s long-term growth potential. Similarly, Micron aims to recover to record revenue levels by 2025, powered by innovations in memory and storage solutions critical for AI and machine learning processes. However, potential investors should remain cautious due to possible demand fluctuations that could impact projections. Market Analysis and Strategic Insights The semiconductor market’s future hinges on its ability to adapt to AI’s evolving needs. Key insights suggest focusing on AI-driven demand could be the linchpin for sustained growth. Data center sales illustrate a robust demand for high-performance computing solutions, underlining the importance of developing chips optimized for AI tasks. Challenges and Limitations While the industry’s growth outlook is promising, challenges such as supply chain disruptions and fluctuating demand could impede progress. The reliance on rare materials and international market conditions also pose logistical and operational challenges that stakeholders must navigate to maintain momentum. Concluding Thoughts The semiconductor industry’s trajectory is closely tied to AI innovations, offering promising yet complex prospects for businesses and investors alike.

Report: NFL warns players of burglary rings targeting pro athletesAmid a fall season characterized by restive shareholders seeking an activist bid to unseat senior management and change the trajectory of the company, Pfizer ( PFE 2.29% ) is communicating that everything is under control. Per its updated forecast for its 2024 and 2025 fiscal years on Dec. 17, the overarching message is that the pharma will continue to seek to control its costs while bolstering its portfolio of medicines as usual. But does that make the stock a buy, or is there reason to be cautious? Let's dig into the details here and make a judgment. This new forecast is a mixed bag To begin, let's compare the new outlook issued by management for 2025 with its recent performance to get a sense of how significant the coming 12 months will be for shareholders. Pfizer's trailing-12-month (TTM) revenue is $59.3 billion, whereas its TTM normalized diluted earnings per share (EPS) is $1.55. Per the updated projection for next year, the business anticipates bringing in revenue of as much as $64 billion, and adjusted diluted EPS of between $2.80 and $3.00. But here's where shareholders are apt to frown. According to the reaffirmed forecast for this year, 2024, the company expects to bring in as much as $64 billion in revenue, and as much as $2.95 in adjusted diluted EPS. See the issue? Even if things go well enough that sales and earnings end up in the upper ranges of management's forecasts, there won't be much in the way of top or bottom-line growth between 2024 and 2025. That means management's plan to implement $500 million in cost savings in 2025 will hardly make a dent. On the bright side, a separate cost-savings campaign dedicated to manufacturing specifically is expected to start to deliver in the second half of 2025, so that might make 2026 a bit better from an earnings perspective. Plus, the overlapping forecast for 2024 and 2025 are, to an extent, a mirage; after removing non-recurring items from this year's forecast performance, Pfizer thinks that its revenue could grow by as much as 5% and its adjusted diluted EPS by as much as 18% in 2025. Still, that isn't actually very reassuring, as management is frank that performing at the lower ends of its estimates would result in zero revenue growth and just 10% EPS growth year over year. The long term looks a bit better than the near term What should investors make of this update from management? For one, there hasn't been much discussion of how the business is going to grow faster in the near future than it is today, which suggests no upcoming major changes in strategy. The previously established goals of becoming more efficient, becoming a world leader in oncology drugs, and continuing to return capital to shareholders while reducing the company's debt burden are still in progress. Likewise, research and development (R&D) activities will continue to be fully funded, and while it hasn't been explicitly mentioned, there is a high probability that Pfizer will continue to look for opportunities to acquire promising biotechs or their pharmaceutical assets to bolster the pipeline. More importantly, shareholders need to brace themselves for another year of the stock being in the doldrums. There's no obvious pending catalyst that would enable big price appreciation. At the same time, if you're interested in collecting a dividend with a toothsome forward yield of 6.7%, right now looks like a great time to buy more shares or invest for the first time -- except for the fact that Pfizer is paying out significantly more than it's generating in earnings; its payout ratio is a lofty 223%. The risk of the dividend getting cut is not very high at the moment, but if weak growth continues for a couple of years longer, it could be on the table, especially if there's an unlucky run of late-stage programs that fail in the pipeline. With all of the above in mind, this stock is still worth buying, provided that you're willing to hold onto it through the slow period ahead. Just be aware that the risk is higher here than it would normally be with a big pharma stock, as this giant looks like it's moving slower than its shareholders might prefer.
