Women and Girls section has built strong family dynamic since launching in 2018 – and embraced Wags moniker The acronym Wags first entered popular consciousness in 2006 during England’s football World Cup adventures in Baden-Baden. Victoria Beckham, Cheryl Tweedy and the gang became a sneering tabloid obsession, their matching outfits, nightclub antics and hair extensions gleefully picked apart. Twenty years later, a very different set of Wags are causing a stir at Oswestry Cricket Club on the north Shropshire-Wales border. The thriving Women and Girls section (WaGs) has an astonishing 10 mother and daughter pairs who have played competitive cricket together, ranging from 12 years old to 67. Continue reading...

Bet_Noire Christmas could get costlier this year as Chinese suppliers to U.S. retailers like Walmart ( WMT ) and Costco ( COST ) are hiking prices to offset soaring raw material costs, Bloomberg News reported. Chinese manufacturers are raising prices by up to 5% for some products for big-box retailers and up to 15% for smaller merchants, according to suppliers cited in the report. Home furnishing prices are up 10%-15% and artificial Christmas trees could be up to 10% more expensive. This is the time when production orders are placed so that products will be available for Christmas. The price hikes come as American consumers are already tightening their purse strings amid rising inflation. "Higher prices will eventually be passed on to consumers, especially as the war has dragged on and energy prices have stayed elevated," said Lynn Song, chief Greater China economist, ING. "By Christmas season, it's likely that at least a portion of these price hikes will have materialized." But the cost of toys is holding steady for now, as intense competition and weaker demand mean there's less wiggle room in negotiations with retailers, the report noted .

mihailomilovanovic/E+ via Getty Images United Therapeutics ( UTHR ) is reportedly working with Varda Space Industries to explore the use of microgravity in creating drugs for chronic diseases in a deal that could prove out the value of in-space development for the pharmaceutical industry. Varda, backed by Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund, will send United Therapeutics’ medicines into orbit on small capsules with no crew, where the drug samples will undergo chemical processing in space, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday, citing Michael Reilly, chief strategy officer at California-based Varda. United Therapeutics’ ( UTHR ) scientists then will study the effects of microgravity on the molecules days or weeks later when they retun to Earth, the report said .

Sandwish/iStock via Getty Images Freshworks Inc. ( FRSH ) continues to show operating strength despite the AI fears. The stock price also continues to build up from lows. I first covered Freshworks in September of last year. I considered the company to have a compelling growth story and valuation and rated the stock a buy. Then along came the SaaSpocalypse, and the stock saw its price drop from over $12 a share down to under $7. I considered this drop to be overdone and rated the stock a buy after the drop. I added to my position during the drop as well. The stock has since that time started to climb, reaching a per share price of around $9. The company is still down a lot to start the year, as is the case with most software-as-a-service companies. Seeking Alpha The company reported earnings on May 5. It showed continued revenue growth and strong performance. The company has seen revenues, operating income, and cash flow expand, yet the value has only seen a decline. I continue to believe that the company has oversold the stock based upon AI worries. This has left the valuation at a compelling price point. I continue to see the stock as undervalued and expect continued stock price appreciation. Financials The company continued to show strong growth with revenues up 16% year over year to reach $196.3 million. The growth is happening within the EX business with revenues up by 27%. The CX side of the business continues to grow much slower at 6%. This growth has also come with growth in larger partners. The company is moving upstream and signing bigger and bigger companies onto their services. The company noted that they signed the 2 largest deals in Freshworks history during Q1. Customers of more than $100,000 a year grew 29% year-over-year, and customers of more than $50,000 grew by 22% year-over-year. These large customers provide a lot more stability to revenues and can provide stronger margins to the business. Company Earnings Presentation Gross margin continued to...
