Dick's 2Q profit falls, and the retailer lowers its full-year outlook on worries about theft

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:31:12 GMT

Dick's Sporting Goods profit slipped in its second quarter and missed Wall Street's expectations as the retailer cut its full-year profit outlook, citing worries over theft at its stores.Shares declined more than 24% in morning trading Tuesday. For the period ended July 29, Dick's earned $244 million, or $2.82 per share. A year earlier the company earned $319 million, or $3.25 per share.Analysts polled by FactSet predicted earnings of $3.81 per share. Jailed Sam Bankman-Fried can’t prepare for trial without vegan diet and adequate meds, lawyers say “Our Q2 profitability was short of our expectations due in large part to the impact of elevated inventory shrink, an increasingly serious issue impacting many retailers,” President and CEO Lauren Hobart said in a statement.Neil Saunders, managing director of GlobalData, said in a statement that a large portion of Dick's quarterly profit drop appeared to be from theft.“In our view this is a particular issue for Dick’s as many of the prod...

(BCN) -- The Alameda County Sheriff's Office previously asked for the public's help in locating a missing at-risk woman from Hayward. MiaRochel Jones, also known as MiaRochel Saengkao, 34, left her mother's residence on Camden Avenue at about 6:30 a.m. Monday. Jones was safely located Tuesday morning around 4 a.m. by a good Samaritan who saw her sitting at a bus stop in San Lorenzo, the Alameda County Sheriff's Office said. She was transported to a nearby hospital due to foot pain likely caused from walking around in her slippers all night, authorities said."We want to thank the kind community member who took notice of the search for MiaRochel and acted on our call for the community’s help in finding her," the sheriff's office said. "Because of them, she was safely located."Copyright © 2023 Bay City News, Inc.

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:31:12 GMT

Congress is often unpredictable, but when the U.S. Senate convenes on Sept. 5 after the summer break, the session will begin with the reassuring baritone of the Rev. Barry Black.He has now served more than 20 years as the U.S. Senate chaplain, a witness to history who prays with the politically powerful, but who has also been known to admonish lawmakers when he gets a message from a higher power.Black’s two decades as chaplain mark the longest consecutive tenure for the position, which was formally established for the U.S. Senate in 1789. A native of Baltimore, he is also the first Black chaplain to serve in the upper chamber.Black came to Capitol Hill after an extensive military career, which included serving as the chief chaplain of the Navy.“The military is actually excellent preparation for ministry in the legislature,” he said, speaking at his office in the Capitol.While senators can have big egos, Black said he was used to being around people who are aware of...

A rice shortage is sending prices soaring across the world. And things could get worse

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:31:12 GMT

Francis Ndege isn’t sure if his customers in Africa’s largest slum can afford to keep buying rice from him.Prices for rice grown in Kenya soared a while ago because of higher fertilizer prices and a yearslong drought in the Horn of Africa that has reduced production. Cheap rice imported from India had filled the gap, feeding many of the hundreds of thousands of residents in Nairobi’s Kibera slum who survive on less than $2 a day.But that is changing. The price of a 25-kilogram (55-pound) bag of rice has risen by about a fifth since June, going from the equivalent of about $14 to $18. Wholesalers are yet to receive new stocks since India, the world’s largest exporter of rice by far, said last month that it would ban some rice shipments. It’s an effort by the world’s most populous nation to control domestic prices ahead of a key election year — but it’s left a yawning gap of around 9.5 million metric tons (10.4 tons) of rice that people around the world need, roughly...

MADRID (AP) — European team captain Suzann Pettersen completed her Solheim Cup squad on Tuesday with Sweden’s Madelene Sagstrom and Scotland’s Gemma Dryburgh, the only two Europeans in the top 50 in the world who hadn’t automatically qualified.Pettersen also selected Sweden’s Caroline Hedwall and Denmark’s Emily Pedersen for the 12-player European squad that will go for a third straight win against the United States from Sept. 22-24 at Finca Cortesin in southern Spain.Dryburgh will be one of the three rookies in a European team that has never won three in a row against the U.S. in the biennial competition that is the equivalent of the Ryder Cup in men’s golf. For the first time, both events will be held in back-to-back weeks, with the Ryder Cup taking place in Rome.“It’s a lot of pressure on us, obviously,” said Pettersen, who helped Europe win the Solheim Cup in 2019. “We are capable of doing history, doing a three-peat that has never been ...
