Unilever to cut 7,500 jobs and spin off its ice cream business, which includes Ben & Jerry's
Stock market today: Wall Street mostly lower in premarket as world's central banks take center stage
Wall Street drifted modestly lower early Tuesday in what’s turning out to be a big week for central banks around the world. Futures for the S&P 500 fell 0.4% and futures for the Dow were 0.2% lower before the bell, one day ahead of the Federal Reserve’s latest policy announcement. The Fed’s meeting on interest rates begins Tuesday and wraps up on Wednesday, when it’s widely expected that the central bank will keep its main interest rate steady at its highest level since 2001. On Tuesday, the Bank of Japan hiked its benchmark interest rate for the first time in 17 years, ending a longstanding negative rate policy.
Trump is making the Jan. 6 attack a cornerstone of his bid for the White House
A group of Buddhist faith leaders and community members gathered in the city of Antioch, California, for the “first national Buddhist memorial service and pilgrimage in response to anti-Asian hate.” The goal of the March 16 event was to use karmic cleansing through chants, prayer and testimony to start healing racial trauma caused by the anti-Chinese immigrant discrimination and destruction of a Buddhist/Taoist temple in the 1800s. Buddhist leaders from a diversity of faith traditions came to the event titled “May We Gather.” The gathering also marked the third anniversary of the Atlanta mass shooting in which six women of Asian descent were shot dead.
Unilever, the company that makes Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, Dove soaps and Vaseline, says it's cutting 7,500 jobs and spinning off its ice cream business to reduce costs and boost profits. London-based Unilever said Tuesday that its ice cream business, which also includes Magnum bars, has “distinct characteristics” from its other brands and would benefit from separate ownership to increase growth. It says the split is expected to be completed by the end of next year. The British consumer goods company with 128,000 employees also says it's launching a “productivity program” that's expected to lead to a reduction of about 7,500 mostly office-based jobs worldwide and save $867 million over the next three years.
There’s support for a trail system that could allow for travel across America from Washington state to Washington, D.C. without using a road, but rolling out the plan has included bumps along the way. One of the main issues is connecting existing trails to create a continuous 3,700-mile walking and biking route. That’s the idea behind the Great American Rail-Trail. The Biden administration is set to open applications Tuesday for a program that will prioritize constructing and connecting recreational trails all over the country. Officials expect a highly competitive grant process. Investing in an active transportation network could help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, promote healthier lifestyles and provide a boost for small towns on the route.
The Latest | Qatar is 'cautiously optimistic' after cease-fire talks with Israeli intelligence chief
Qatari officials are “cautiously optimistic” after talks with Israel’s intelligence chief in Doha aimed at trying to reach a cease-fire. Meanwhile, the incoming Palestinian prime minister has laid out wide-ranging plans for a revitalized Palestinian Authority and an independent trust fund to oversee Gaza’s reconstruction. Fighting in Gaza has killed more than 31,800 Palestinians, and a United Nations food agency has warned that “famine is imminent” in northern Gaza. Palestinian militants killed some 1,200 people in the surprise Oct. 7 attack out of Gaza that triggered the war, and abducted another 250 people. Hamas is still believed to be holding some 100 people hostage.
