6 stories worth telling you about: supply chain disruptions, inflation, bankruptcy, and more...
Every week when I have to pick “the story” to talk about, there always seems to be a few stories that I wanted to share with you, but they didn’t quite grab my attention like the one I end up picking. If you haven’t gotten a chance to read yesterday’s post, check it out and join the conversation:
Instead of letting those other stories go unread, I’ve decided to share those with you here! Here are 6 things I thought were worth sharing:
The tuna lawsuit against Subway now has a sequel but is focused on a new point of contention. Read about the first one on Monday Morning Economist.
Bankruptcy isn’t just for companies that can’t pay the bills. Johnson & Johnson is placing one of its units in bankruptcy to avoid lawsuits.
Supply chain disruptions are coming for your snacks. Get ready to pay more for those Oreos. Check out an early issue on the disruption.
What’s the point of a label if it isn’t accurate? Strawberry Pop-Tarts may not have enough strawberries in them.
I don’t think inflation is all that magical. A look at the history of Walt Disney World prices compared to other goods.
Instead of raising prices, Sherwin Williams is adding a supply-chain surcharge to their receipts.
