Runtime: 0:48
Date posted: 2 years ago
Description: When Amazon first launched its "Just Walk Out" cashierless checkout solution in 2018, analysts say it had the potential to revolutionize retail.
But in April, Amazon pulled the tech from Whole Foods and its U.S. line of Fresh grocery stores. Instead, Amazon focused on selling it to outsiders and installed it in 200 third-party stores in NFL stadiums, arenas, colleges, airports and more.
CNBC got the first on-camera tour of the lab used to develop the tech and its new "multi-modal" AI system.

Title: Why It's So Hard To Be A Worker Right Now | CNBC Marathon
Runtime: 28:01
Date posted: 2 years ago
Description: CNBC Marathon examines some of the challenges facing the labor market such as job hunting, remote work, and quiet cutting.

A staffing firm Insight Global found that recently unemployed full-time workers applied to an average of 30 jobs, only to receive an average of four callbacks or responses. So why does it feel so hard to get a job right now and is the U.S. labor market as strong as it seems?

Finding fully remote work is getting challenging. During the pandemic, remote work became the darling of the corporate world, and companies going fully remote became the new normal. As the world began to open up, though, corporate America shifted its stance on remote work. Some companies have even threatened to fire workers who don't return to the office for a certain number of days.

In the 2023 American workplace, a new labor market trend took over where quiet quitting left off, quiet cutting. "Quiet cutting is what some people consider a subcatego...

Runtime: 16:37
Date posted: 2 years ago
Description: Earlier this month, Musk and former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy were tapped by Trump to lead a government efficiency group called the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE. This government group, they said, will “pursue three major kinds of reform: regulatory rescissions, administrative reductions and cost savings.” As head of the Department of Government Efficiency, Elon Musk has promised to slash $2 trillion from the federal budget. One way he’s suggested doing this is by consolidating some of the country’s over 400 federal agencies, many of which regulate his companies. Musk’s empire includes aerospace firm SpaceX, electric vehicle maker Tesla, social media company X and artificial intelligence startup xAI among others.

Runtime: 8:43
Date posted: 2 years ago
Description: In August 2024, NFL owners voted in favor of allowing private equity firms to invest in teams for the first time in its storied history. It was a long time coming as peer leagues such as the MLB, the NBA and the NHL began accepting minority-share investment by private equity firms beginning in 2019. Average NFL team valuations have soared to $6.49 billion, largely thanks to the enormous media rights deals they have signed, which are worth 85% more than the previously inked deal. And private equity wants a share in the growth. The Miami Dolphins are allegedly the first NFL team to be in advanced talks to sell a minority stake to private equity firm, Ares Management.

Title: Why American Cars Are So Expensive
Runtime: 13:53
Date posted: 2 years ago
Description: Cars once promised independence and transportation for all Americans. Now, they are a luxury product that cost about $50,000, nearly 30% higher than just a few years ago. Affordable vehicles, especially those below the price of $20,000, have nearly disappeared. And while Automakers pulled in record profits in 2023, slim margins combined with deep investments into EV batteries, software and other technology is making it hard to produce cars much cheaper. Chinese automakers can, but they're impeded by tariffs and rules. Insiders say that is just a bandage - automakers need to compete.

Description: With increasingly high rental prices, insurance companies dropping coverage, and overly restrictive Homeowners Associations (HOAs), Americans face a multitude of challenges on the path to homeownership. CNBC Marathon explores how the rise of HOAs, the climate crisis, and limited housing supply affect living in the U.S.

More than 80% of newly-built single-family homes sold in 2022 belonged to an HOA, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. HOAs tout themselves as a value-add to homeowners, specifically when it comes to maintaining high property value, but not everyone is pleased with HOAs. Fifty-seven percent of homeowners surveyed said they disliked living in an HOA with more than 3 in 10 homeowners saying they feel like the HOA has too much power.

Many homeowners in the U.S. are losing their home insurance policies. Major insurers like State Farm and Allstate are no longer offering new policies in California. State Farm attributes this to increased wildfire risk...

As that extra aid expires, even economically powerful states have to tighten their budgets. That could mean more tax hikes or cuts to public services like education and transportation.

Mexican goods imported to the U.S. totaled $475 billion in 2023 about $20 billion higher than the previous year. Feuling that trend are simmering trade tensions between Beijing and Washington, an effort to bring U.S. imports closer to home and a burgeoning Mexican manufacturing base. But there’s another factor at play. To avoid American tariffs Chinese companies are using Mexico as a backdoor to the U.S. So how is China able to circumvent U.S. tariffs and what are logistic companies doing to prepare for the upcoming boom in Mexican trade. CNBC traveled to Mexico City and El Paso to find out.

Why China Is Testing Its Autonomous Cars On U.S. Roads

Title: Why China Is Testing Its Autonomous Cars On U.S. Roads
Runtime: 21:12
Date posted: 2 years ago
Description: Chinese companies are aggressively developing autonomous vehicles. In August, the country announced that it had issued 16,000 test licenses for driverless cars and opened around 20,000 miles of roads in China for autonomous vehicle testing. But China-based autonomous vehicle companies have also quietly been testing their technology on U.S. streets. AV companies Didi, WeRide, Pony.ai, Baidu and AutoX logged over 1.6 million test miles in California between 2017 and 2023, gathering valuable data to train their autonomous vehicle algorithms. These same companies also established research labs in northern California, right alongside many U.S. companies working on driverless car technology. But now, the U.S. government has proposed a ban on Chinese and Russian connected vehicles due to national security concerns, putting the future operations of these companies in the U.S. into question.

Description: Counterfeits have always been a problem on Amazon, but they became more common after an influx of Chinese-based sellers joined in 2015, causing brands like Nike and Birkenstock to quit selling directly on the site. In 2020, Amazon launched the Counterfeit Crimes Unit, which joined law enforcement on 50 raids and the seizure of seven million counterfeit products in 2023. But retail experts say it's not enough.

Description: A CNBC investigation finds that Novo Nordisk’s Ozempic and Wegovy as well as other wildly popular obesity drugs are being actively counterfeited and illegally diverted from other countries in open marketplaces online and shipped at cut rate prices to the U.S. We uncover one such company that appears to be based in Colorado, but is really operating from China, as we tracked down the location, shipping Ozempic from the Chinese market to the U.S. CNBC goes inside this shadowy world from New York to outside London to Turkey and China, interviewing government officials as well as Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly, which manufacturers Mounjaro and Zepbound.

Your Robotaxi Is Here, But Can You Trust It?

Title: Your Robotaxi Is Here, But Can You Trust It?
Runtime: 15:02
Date posted: 2 years ago
Description: Driverless cars are speeding onto America’s streets, but whether the public will trust robotaxis remains an open question.

Nearly two-thirds of Americans said they would not want to ride in a driverless passenger vehicle if they had the opportunity, according to a Pew Research Center survey. That’s because residents in cities that have yet to experience robotaxis remain unfamiliar with the technology while those in cities with driverless cabs have not yet forgotten about high-profile accidents involving other companies, like GM-owned Cruise. Now Tesla, the loudest and most bullish self-driving proponent of them all, is due to unveil its long-awaited robotaxi after years of unfulfilled promises. The company’s existing Full Self-Driving technology, where a human is still at the wheel, has drawn the scrutiny of regulators and multiple lawsuits after hundreds of crashes. Experts say a great presentation from CEO Elon Musk won’t guarantee a safe robotaxi network. Tesla�...

Why Macy’s And Other Brands Are Moving Into Strip Malls

Title: Why Macy’s And Other Brands Are Moving Into Strip Malls
Runtime: 10:05
Date posted: 2 years ago
Description: U.S. adults make about 1.3 billion visits to shopping centers each month or about 62 trips per person annually, according to the International Council of Shopping Centers.

While some outlets, like malls, have struggled to retain shoppers, foot traffic to strip malls is booming.

Data compiled by analytics company RetailStat shows annual visits to strip malls surged 18% last year compared with prior to the pandemic.

Convenient shopping options, hybrid work and millennials moving to fast-growing suburbs are driving that trend.

"Lines are shorter because of smaller stores, parking is easier, they're usually on your way home from dropping your kid off at school or on your way home from work," said real estate attorney Jessica Vara of Hunton Andrews Kurth.

And retailers are trying to get a slice of the action. Macy's announced last year it was opening 30 new small format stores in off-mall locations. The new stores, about a fif...

But in April, Amazon pulled the tech from Whole Foods and its U.S. line of Fresh grocery stores. Instead, Amazon focused on selling it to outsiders and installed it in 200 third-party stores in NFL stadiums, arenas, colleges, airports and more.

Description: Between 1979 and 2024, productivity in the U.S. soared by 80.9%, while hourly pay grew by just 29.4% during the same period. In June 2024, two-thirds of middle-income households reported that their income was falling behind the cost of living. This trend has often been referred to as ‘wage stagnation’. But more recently, economists have suggested that deliberate policy decisions have actively suppressed worker’s wage growth. So what exactly is preventing the middle class from earning a higher paycheck?

Will Tesla Robotaxis Live Up To 10 Years Of Development And Hype?

Title: Will Tesla Robotaxis Live Up To 10 Years Of Development And Hype?
Runtime: 20:30
Date posted: 2 years ago
Description: For a decade, Elon Musk has championed the idea that one day Tesla cars will drive themselves as robotaxis. On October 10, the company plans to reveal a “dedicated robotaxi” design at an invitation-only event in Los Angeles.

Despite years of bold predictions and missed deadlines, fans of the company are holding out hope that Musk will finally deliver. Regardless of what the company showcases at its robotaxi day, experts are skeptical of the company’s strategy, citing its Auotpilot and Full Self-Driving technology as a barometer for Tesla’s progress, or lack thereof.

While Tesla has been developing its autonomous vehicles, competitors like Google-owned Waymo and Chinese companies like Pony.ai and Baidu have already launched commercial robotaxi services.

With U.S. EV sales growth slowing, there’s a lot riding on Tesla’s potential pivot to autonomy. CNBC explores whether the company is ready for robotaxis and if Musk’s vision for driver...
