Eileen Gu, who earned a gold medal in freestyle skiing at the 2026 Winter Olympics, has reportedly upset her wealthy San Francisco neighbors.
Eileen, 22, and her family are accused of discarding a large pile of furniture and household items on the sidewalk of her California home. According to a Wednesday, June 10 report from the New York Post, the trash pile included a couch, mattress, broken furniture, books, clothing and other household items.
Neighbors filed a complaint to the city on Monday, June 8, alleging that the garbage "obscured a fire hydrant from view," the outlet reported.
When a neighbor reached out to Eileen's mother, Yan Gu, she claimed she had placed the items neatly on the curb around 1 a.m., packed into 20 boxes and covered in case of rain, according to SF Standard. However, the complaint to the city was sent in around 8 p.m. on Monday evening.
Yan added that either "vicious people" or scavengers must have strewn the items haphazardly. She also claimed that someone pulled out a shirt with Eileen's name on it, calling it a "malicious act."

Ahead of the 10-year anniversary of Christina Grimmie's death, June 10 has officially been dubbed "Christina Grimmie Day" in the singer's home state of New Jersey. Grimmie was murdered in a senseless tragedy in 2016, two years after she came in third place on Season 6 of The Voice.
On the tenth anniversary of her passing, Grimmie's father told Us Weekly, "We want Christina to be remembered for the person and artist she was, not just the tragedy." Her family now runs the Christina Grimmie Foundation, which offers financial support to families dealing with tragedy.
Even before her time on The Voice in 2014, Grimmie had gained recognition through her performances on YouTube. She opened for Selena Gomez on various occasions and had the singer's support during her run on the singing competition (Gomez's stepfather was Grimmie's manager).
Grimmie was just 22 years old when she died, and on the ten-year anniversary of her death, we're revisiting what happened on June 10, 2016.
Grimmie was conducting a meet and greet at the Plaza Live in Orlando, Florida, when she was shot and killed. Kevin James Loibl stood in line with the rest of Grimmie's fans and pulled out a gun once he reached the front. He shot the singer three times, once in the head and twice in the chest.

Olympic skier Eileen Gu's lavish family home in San Francisco is reportedly at the center of a bitter neighborhood dispute that stretches back more than 10 years and has seen multiple complaints filed against the gold medalist's family over everything from sewage problems to unsightly garbage piles.
Gu, 22, who competes for China, spent much of her childhood living in a luxury mansion in the upscale neighborhood of Sea Cliff, where her mother purchased a four-bedroom property for $1.84 million in 2010, when the skier was 7 years old.
Despite boasting a net worth of more than $23 million, Gu—who claimed one gold and two silver medals at the 2026 Winter Olympics—is not thought to have ever purchased her own property, instead continuing to reside with her mother at the Sea Cliff mansion, when she is not traveling the world for work.
But that same home is now at the center of a rather ugly neighborhood battle, according to a new report by The San Francisco Standard, which alleges that the latest twist in the Sea Cliff spat involves an unsightly pile of garbage that was left piled up outside the property on June 8.
According to the outlet, "an enormous pile of trash and furniture" was dumped on the sidewalk outside the property, which was originally built in 1925 and is now worth $5 million, with images published by The Standard capturing a haphazard collection of old shelves, a couch, a mattress, what appears to be a disused suitcase, and cardboard boxes filled with abandoned clothing, books, and other detritus in front of the Gu residence.

President Donald Trump has repeatedly boasted about being in office for three major U.S. events: America 250, the 2028 Summer Olympics and the World Cup. One of them starts June 11.
The US, Mexico and Canada are co-hosting the 2026 Men's World Cup after winning the bid under Trump's first presidency.
Trump has been to several sporting events as president, including a FIFA Club World Cup final on July 13, where he went viral for celebrating on stage with the winning team. FIFA president Gianni Infantino is also a key Trump ally. He gave Trump an inaugural FIFA Peace Prize in December, before the US and Israel attacked Iran.
Will Trump be in attendance at the World Cup games? Here is what we know.

We just covered Forget AI: Legendary Value Investor Seth Klarman Is Buying These 10 Value Stocks in 2026. WESCO International (NYSE:WCC) ranks #2 (see Seth Klarman Is Buying These 5 Value Stocks in 2026).
Baupost's Stake $393,159,000
WESCO International (NYSE:WCC) is an industrial distributor serving customers in construction, data centers, utilities, and industrial facilities. Unlike pure manufacturers, it provides electrical, communications, and security products and services all under one roof — making it a one-stop shop for large, complex projects.
Data centers are now the company's most powerful growth engine. WESCO International's (NYSE:WCC) data center sales hit $4.3 billion in 2025, up 50% year-over-year, fueled by hyperscale and AI-driven infrastructure demand. The company is embedded across the entire data center lifecycle — from initial power and electrical buildout all the way through connectivity, IT infrastructure, and AI compute environments. This means recurring, sticky revenue rather than one-off contracts.
Scale is WESCO International's (NYSE:WCC) biggest competitive edge. It operates across more than 50 countries with a distribution network that is extremely difficult to replicate. Its closest rival, W.W. Grainger, focuses more narrowly on industrial MRO, while manufacturers like Hubbell and nVent have deeper supply chain control but lack WESCO's breadth and reach. No single competitor matches WESCO's end-to-end capability.

Baupost's Stake: $373,301,000
Elevance Health (NYSE:ELV) is a key holding in Klarman's portfolio. It is one of the largest health insurers in the US, serving 45.4 million members. The stock has been hammered by rising healthcare costs, disappointing government payment rates, and regulatory pressure. But the recovery appears to be gaining traction. In Q1 2026, revenue and EPS showed growth and the benefit expense ratio — which measures claims costs against premium income — improved to 86.8%, down from 90% in 2025.
A key regulatory cloud also lifted. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services raised its 2027 Medicare Advantage payment rate to levels better than the market expected.
Management responded by raising full-year 2026 adjusted EPS guidance.

Baupost's Stake: $43,174,000
DNOW Inc. (NYSE:DNOW) is a distributor of energy and industrial products, spun off from National Oilwell Varco in 2014. The stock is down about 9% over the past year.
Its merger with MRC Global has transformed the company into a $2.22 billion business with a diversified revenue mix across upstream energy (41%), midstream (21%), gas utilities (21%), and downstream and industrial (17%). The stock has taken a beating since the deal closed, weighed down by merger-related accounting charges and a messy Oracle ERP system conversion at legacy MRC Global. Bulls believe the selloff is an overreaction that creates a compelling entry point for long-term investors.
Key growth catalysts are building. Gas utilities are expanding capacity to meet rising energy demand, and the spike in oil prices following the Iran conflict could finally break three years of stagnant upstream spending.

We just covered Forget AI: Legendary Value Investor Seth Klarman Is Buying These 10 Value Stocks in 2026. Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings (NYSE:NCLH) ranks #9 (see Seth Klarman Is Buying These 5 Value Stocks in 2026).
Baupost's Stake: $67,881,000
Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings (NYSE:NCLH) trades at roughly 9x EV/EBITDA and less than 10x forward earnings. This shows a discount to peers like Royal Caribbean and Carnival, which trade at higher multiples.
In Q1 2026, NCLH returned to profitability with revenue of $2.33 billion and net income of $104.67 million versus a loss a year earlier. Occupancy is expected to exceed 104% in 2026, and Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings' (NYSE:NCLH) luxury brands continue to see healthy demand. Broader cruise bookings are holding up well across the industry.
The debt load has been the biggest concern hanging over the stock. But most of that debt does not mature until 2030, giving management several years to improve cash flow and reduce leverage. Capital spending is also expected to decline significantly after 2027, potentially freeing up nearly $1 billion annually for debt reduction.

Its moat lies in long-standing state government contracts, deep expertise serving low-income populations, and an infrastructure built specifically around Medicaid managed care.The stock has been hammered amid Medicaid rate adjustments and elevated medical costs. But bulls argue this is a cyclical trough, not a structural problem. Medicaid managed care has a well-documented cycle — costs overshoot state reimbursement rates, companies take losses, states adjust rates higher, and margins recover. Molina Healthcare's (NYSE:MOH) CEO has explicitly called 2026 the margin trough.Q1 2026 provided the first hard evidence of recovery. Adjusted EPS came in at $2.35, crushing the $1.29 consensus, sending the stock up 15% in a day.

A hot inflation reading for May released Wednesday morning reinforces that the Federal Reserve will maintain interest rates next week. Rates will likely remain on hold until there's evidence that inflation is receding.
The Consumer Price Index rose 4.2% in May, in line with expectations, compared with 3.8% in April. The increase was again driven by energy prices due to the conflict in the Middle East, which accounted for 60% of the rise in inflation. Food and shelter prices also pushed up inflation last month.
Stripping out volatile energy and food prices, "core" inflation ticked up to 2.9% from 2.8% in April, also in line with expectations. Month over month, core inflation rose 0.2%, below expectations for a rise of 0.3% and down from 0.4% in April.
Officials are closely watching whether higher energy prices are becoming embedded in core inflation. So far, core prices have not jumped at the same level as energy prices. Still, core inflation ticked up and is roughly a full percentage point above the Fed's 2% inflation goal.

LONDON, June 10 (Reuters) - OPEC oil output in May hit its lowest in more than two decades, a Reuters survey found, as a U.S. naval blockade cut Iran's exports and Iran's effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz slashed exports by other Gulf producers.
Output by the 11-member Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries fell by 1.06 million barrels per day month-on-month to 16.13 million bpd, the survey found.
That was the lowest monthly figure since at least 2000, according to Reuters surveys, and well below the levels seen during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 when demand collapsed.
The figures exclude the United Arab Emirates which quit OPEC as of May 1.

Cracker Barrel stock is up about 12% ahead of Wednesday's open. (Eric Glenn/Shutterstock)
Shares of Cracker Barrel Old Country Store (CBRL) soared 30% on Wednesday morning, amid ******* yst price target hikes. An upgrade to overweight from UBS pointed out that the shares were heavily shorted.
Shares of Cracker Barrel had already advanced about 8% on Monday and Tuesday. The stock is now up about 40% this week, according to MarketSurge.
About 27% of the float is currently held short, according to MarketSurge. Generally speaking, a short interest of about 10% is typically viewed as elevated. Anything above 20% is considered extremely high. When traders short a stock they are betting the price will fall. However, if it starts to rise short sellers are forced to buy more of the stock to cover their impending losses. Those forced purchases place added upward pressure on the price.
Shorts against Cracker Barrel have increased by 3.6%, meaning it would now require about 5.8 days of the stock's average trading volume for short sellers to buy back all their shares. The meme stock crowd had not yet picked up on the action, with Cracker Barrel not registering among the top 50 stocks trending early Wednesday on the Ape Wisdom stock list.

Inflation is once again outrunning wage growth and that’s creating a problem for anyone sitting on cash.
The inflation rate climbed 0.6% in April, pushing the annual rate up to 3.8%, a three-year high (1). And consumer prices rose 3.8% year over year while inflation-adjusted hourly wage growth came in at 3.6%, according to CNN (2). That means the purchasing power of many Americans is slipping, even as they continue to earn more on paper.

Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) has long been considered the industry standard for artificial intelligence (AI) computing stocks. Since 2023, it has been an amazing performer and has delivered strong, market-crushing returns for shareholders. However, 2026 hasn't been so kind.
Nvidia's stock is up about 12% this year, which isn't a bad return, but it's only beating the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) by a few percentage points (the index is up about 8% so far). Investors are used to much stronger double-digit percentage returns from Nvidia, leaving many investors disappointed in its 2026 results, especially when other stocks like Micron (NASDAQ: MU) and Sandisk (NASDAQ: SNDK) have crushed Nvidia and the market so far in 2026.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
Micron is up 228% in 2026, while Sandisk is up nearly 600%. Those are returns that Nvidia investors can only dream about, but could that continue throughout 2026? Let's take a look.
Both Micron and Sandisk are involved in the memory chip sector. Although Micron makes both NAND and DRAM memory, Sandisk only makes NAND. NAND demand from an AI perspective mostly comes from solid-state drives (SSDs), which are used for long-term data storage in data centers. DRAM is used in computing chips as these devices need to rapidly pull from a memory bank to process computations quickly. Demand far outpaces supply for both memory chip types, causing prices to soar. This effect has led to a boom in both stocks, and that growth may not slow down for a while.

Demand far outpaces supply for both memory chip types, causing prices to soar. This effect has led to a boom in both stocks, and that growth may not slow down for a while.

Gold August (GC=F) futures opened at $4,276.10 this morning, down 0.2% from Tuesday's closing price, and down 1.8% from Tuesday’s opening price. The price of gold is falling further this morning. As of 6:28 a.m. ET, the price of gold moved down to $4,183.80.
Gold prices are down significantly this morning following an exchange of military strikes by the U.S. and Iran overnight, and ahead of an important CPI report later this morning. The continued military action by both sides underscores how far both countries are from a peace agreement and from reopening the Strait of Hormuz. The longer the war in Iran continues, the longer the globe will go without a steady flow of oil and natural gas, and thus, the longer inflation will continue to plague prices in the U.S. and around the world.
We haven’t seen gold prices in the $4,100 range since March 23, and before that, not since December 2025.
The opening price of gold futures on Wednesday was down 1.8% compared to Tuesday's opening price. Here's how the opening gold price has changed versus last week, month, and year:

Stock market investors often have to make a trade-off between stability and growth. That's because the fastest-growing companies often have riskier business models, which leads to more volatility. That said, Walmart (NASDAQ: WMT) has recently begun turning this axiom on its head.
Shares in the blue-chip retailer have risen by an impressive 401% over the past 10 years, far outpacing the S&P 500's return of just 251%. And while the company has practically no exposure to glamorous growth opportunities such as generative AI, its massive scale and booming e-commerce business have helped keep its stock relevant.

BP has announced plans to reorganise its operations into two primary business segments, Upstream and Downstream, effective from 1 July 2026.
The company stated that the move aims to simplify its organisational structure, improve performance and focus on value growth for shareholders.
The announcement comes shortly after the dismissal of Albert Manifold as BP’s chair and director.
Last month, the company said Manifold was removed with immediate effect following “serious concerns” related to governance standards, oversight and conduct, a decision taken unanimously by the board. Manifold had served less than a year in the role.
Gordon Birrell will take over as executive vice-president for Upstream, while Richard Harding will serve as interim executive vice-president for Downstream.

LONDON, June 10 (Reuters) - Oil prices were steady on Wednesday, as renewed U.S.-Iran hostilities muddied direction and investors weighed lower Chinese demand with global inventory draws.
Brent futures were down 25 cents, or 0.23%, at $91.24 a barrel at 1008 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude was down 14 cents, or 0.16%, at $88.06 a barrel.
Prices earlier traded higher on renewed strikes by the United States and Iran, before retreating towards the previous session's close.
Global stock draws are underpinning prices, but lower Chinese crude oil imports are helping to keep a ceiling on prices, as is a limited flow of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, PVM analyst Tamas Varga said.

Jena Sims may have been joking, but Brooks Koepka's wife still raised eyebrows by calling Travis Kelce her hall pass while Taylor Swift remains part of his very public love story.
The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model was discussing her first meeting with the Kansas City Chiefs star, and her excitement was not exactly subtle.
Kelce has become one of the most recognizable athletes in the world, so even a playful comment was always going to travel.
What made the story funnier was that Koepka was fully aware of it. Sims did not present the crush like a secret; she said her husband already knew exactly how she felt.
Jena Sims opened up about meeting Travis Kelce when he played with Brooks Koepka at the 2026 WM Phoenix Open.
