Michael Burry's short targets Applied Materials after shares fell 26% from their peak, now trading at a steep 53x trailing price-to-earnings multiple.
China shifting to domestic toolmakers and potentially pulled-forward memory CapEx pose the two biggest risks to Applied Materials' future order pipeline.
Micron delivers cleaner, lower-valuation exposure to the memory boom than owning the equipment supplier one step removed from actual chip production.
Act now: the ***** yst who called NVIDIA in 2010 just named his top 10 AI stocks — and Applied Materials didn't make the cut. Grab the names FREE today.
There's no mystery why Dr. Michael Burry is so bearish on the semi trade. It's overheated, and if you think AI is in a bubble, it just makes sense to bet against the broad basket. With an individual bearish position in Applied Materials (NASDAQ:AMAT), though, questions linger as to whether there's more pain to be had in the individual name targeted by the great Michael Burry.

Tuesday (July 28) was a big day in the NFL, as the final 26 teams reported to training camp.
That means, as quickly as anyone can say camp has begun, the Arizona Cardinals have concluded the extra week of work they had because of their presence in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio, on Thursday, Aug. 6 against the Carolina Panthers.
Like the Cardinals, the Panthers also had their veterans report on July 22.
All coaches are big into planning, but Cardinals defensive coordinator Nick Rallis might be at the top of the list in looking ahead. So it was that he was asked last Friday what he was accomplishing with the extra week that he might not have been able to without the additional practice time.
"It's so funny," he said. "Like, I'm kind of mapping out installs for the future and it's like, dang, this is an extra week. What would I be doing if I didn't have this extra week? Because I'm like, 'Oh man, I got to get this in somewhere.' But I would say the biggest thing with that extra week is you can spread out installing the scheme, which allows you to just take your time a little bit more during the install meetings and really be on the details with the players.

Two Detroit automakers jumped Monday morning on positive ****** yst news. Jefferies upgraded both General Motors and Ford to buy ratings, from hold.
The investment firm raised General Motors' price target to $99 from $90; and Ford to $17.50, up from $14.50, according to theFly.com. The price targets imply a 12-month upside of 17% for GM and 21% for Ford, relative to where shares traded Monday morning.
The ****** yst action for both companies follows an extended period of hold ratings, and comes after both automakers in December incurred huge, multibillion write-offs related to a series of electric vehicle investments that didn't pan out.
Ford stock rose as much as 3% on Monday's news as it continues to hug its 50-day line, according to MarketSurge. Meanwhile, General Motors' 3.5% gain pushed it briefly above a buy point of 85.41 as it tinkers with a breakout from a flat base. Over the last 12 months, General Motors (GM) is up just under 60%. Ford (F) advanced roughly 28%.

For retirees who prefer their paychecks to arrive every 30 days instead of every 90, a small corner of the market delivers just that. With the 10-year Treasury yielding 4.55% as of mid-July, income investors are demanding a real premium from equity risk. The five monthly dividend payers below all clear that bar, and each combines a well-covered payout with a documented multi-year track record of monthly checks. This is a lineup built for cash flow that shows up like clockwork.

Shane Bieber melted down, which cost the Jays a chance to win but probably more importantly derailed a string of solid starts that had hopefully been pushing his trade value back up. Also, Vladimir Guerrero jr. left the game before the bottom of the fourth after legging out an infield single and throwing error in the third. It was later reported to be a right hamstring injury. So a good day all around.
We got a fun moment before the game as Louis Varland and his brother Gus, recently recalled from AAA by the Nationals, got to do the lineup card exchange.
There was an hour long rain delay before we could get going tonight. Cade Cavalli didn't look bothered, but it looked like the delay really threw Shane Bieber. He couldn't get any of his pitches across, missing badly all over the plate. After the Jays were retired in the first with just a Nathan Lukes single erased by a Vladimir Guerrero jr. double play ball, Bieber walked two the first three Washington hitters. Then CJ Abrams reached on an infield ground ball when Bieber couldn't find the bag while recieving Luis Urias' toss, loading the bases with just one out. Walks to Keibert Ruiz and Daylen Lile forced in a pair of runs. A Nasim Nunez sac fly plated Abrams to make it 3-0. Then another walk, to Jorbit Vivas, re-loaded the bases, and a sixth, to Jacob Young, pushed yet another run across. That was enough for the Jays, who called for Brendon Little. He got a ground out to finally end the inning.
The Jays had a chance in the second, with George Springer walking and Ernie Clement lining a single, but they failed to capitalize. Little returned for the bottom half and struck out the side.
Toronto got on board in the third. Yohendrick Pinango walked with one out, but was traded for Lukes on a fielder's choice. The speed upgrade mattered, as Vlad hit a slow roller to third and Vivas's throw to first went wide, allowing Lukes to come all the way around to score, cutting the deficit to 4-1. Little kept dealing, getting a ground out and a strikeout among the first two batters. Nunez reached when Ernie Clement bobbled a soft chopper to third, but Brandon Valenzuela gunned him down stealing second with a beautiful throw.

GE Vernova (NYSE:GEV) and NextEra Energy (NYSE:NEE) reported June-quarter results within 48 hours of each other. GEV sells the turbines, transformers, and grid gear every hyperscaler needs. NextEra owns the megawatts, the interconnects, and a Florida utility that hyperscalers want to plug into. Two ways to buy the same AI power bottleneck.
GE Vernova posted Q2 revenue of $11.10 billion, up 21.8% year over year, with bookings of $24.2 billion and a $176 billion backlog. Electrification revenue jumped 68%, and $2.7 billion of that came from data center orders in the quarter alone.

Trying to describe what happened when the St. Louis Cardinals played a baseball game against the Chicago Cubs Tuesday night is like trying to explain what it looked like when you see a dumpster on fire. It wasn't pretty, but it happened so let's begin.
The Chicago Cubs made St. Louis Cardinals starter Michael McGreevy look like a batting practice pitcher. It started out promising enough (for the first out, anyway) when Pete Crow-Armstrong struck out gloriously. From there, it was downhill at blazing speed. I'll keep this as brief as possible. Suzuki singled. Two batters later, Bregman hit a ground rule double then Ian Happ hit a double which made it 2-0 Cubs before most of the Busch Stadium crowd had even taken their seat.
The top of the 2nd inning was worse. So much worse. Conforto singled. Kelly walked. Two batters later, PCA hit a sacrifice fly then Suzuki doubled, Busch singled, Bregman singled, Happ walked, then Nico ******* ner singled to right. By the time the carnage was over, it was 7-0 Cubs. Even the all-you-can-eat Busch Stadium food deal isn't enough to redeem this type of experience. Michael McGreevy didn't even finish the 2nd inning. That was Gordon Graceffo's job and, to his credit, he kept the Cubs from piling on any more runs until he was replaced by Justin Bruihl in the top of the 5th inning.
The Cardinals would manage to scrounge around for a run in the bottom of the 4th inning when they loaded the bases with an Alec Burleson walk, a Nootbaar infield single, a Masyn Winn single and a Nathan Church sacrifice fly with the bases loaded slightly reducing the humiliation making it 7-1 Cubs.
The Cubs were determined to squash whatever faint hopes the Cardinals might have managed with that menial 1-run bottom of the 4th by grabbing another run in the top of the 5th inning when Nico ******* ner walked then stole second, advanced to third on a wild pitch by Justin Bruihl and then scored on an infield single from Ramirez restoring the 7-run lead making it 8-1 Chicago. The Cubs added another run in the top of the 8th to make it 9-1 and another in the top of the 9th to make it 10-1, but who really cares? Oh, the Cardinals did add a run in the bottom of the 9th inning when Masyn Winn doubled in Lars Nootbaar who had walked to make the final score 10-2, but we still don't care.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Geno Smith is eager to get back to work for the New York Jets after off-field allegations this offseason had him concerned he could've been a "distraction" to the team.
The 35-year-old quarterback opened his news conference Tuesday after he and his teammates reported for training camp by addressing ******* ault accusations by a woman last month in Davie, Florida. After a short investigation, the case was closed without any charges filed.
"I really hate the fact that, you know, something I was a part of could have been a distraction for this team, my teammates, this organization because a lot of hard work's been put in," Smith said. "And a lot of guys have put a lot of work in for us to be in a good spot as a team. I'm happy that I'm able to put this behind me. I'm looking forward to moving forward and just continuing to build day by day with my guys."
Smith, in his second stint with the Jets after being acquired from Las Vegas in March, said he spoke with coach Aaron Glenn, general manager Darren Mougey and his teammates about the situation but didn't discuss any details. Smith also reportedly had two traffic violations in Florida during the offseason.
"Like I said, we'll put this behind us and we're moving forward," Smith said.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay says that although Aaron Donald's training is going well, the star defensive tackle isn't close to making a decision on a comeback bid.
McVay provided a small update on Donald's progress Tuesday after the Rams' third practice of training camp at Loyola Marymount University. The coach said he's speaking with the 35-year-old Donald during the process of determining whether he'll return for an 11th NFL season after a 2 1/2-year retirement.
"We've kept in contact," McVay said with a small smile. "He's feeling good. His training is going really well, but no new news on the front of any imminent decision on whether or not he's going to play or not."
McVay curiously claimed he didn't know whether Donald has been working out at the Rams' training complex in Woodland Hills, even though Donald has been seen and photographed at the facility. Donald has been a regular visitor to the Rams' complex ever since he walked away from the team somewhat abruptly in March 2024 following a decade of dominance.
"He's got places that he can train at," McVay said. "He's not here with us (at Loyola Marymount). There's **** ody at the Rams facility right now, so maybe TMZ knows the answer to that."

When the Rams announced that guard Justin Dedich would open training camp on the non-football injury list, they did not reveal the nature of that injury. Today they explained it.
Rams head coach Sean McVay said Justin Dedich "had a hand accident around the Fourth of July, and so that's kind of what's keeping him out for now."
McVay didn't specifically mention fireworks, but that's the obvious conclusion people will draw from a July 4 hand accident.
During Fourth of July weekend in 2015, two different NFL players lost fingers in fireworks accidents. Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul's injury caused him to miss half that season, although he had a long career after that, including being a Pro Bowler and Super Bowl champion in Tampa Bay in 2020. Buccaneers cornerback C.J. Wilson also suffered a serious hand injury at Fourth of July 2015 and never played again.
There's been no word on the severity of Dedich's injury.

It wasn't that long ago that Denzel Mims was a more highly-regarded WR prospect than George Pickens. Their careers have gone very different directions, with Pickens playing 2026 on the franchise tag and Mims coming off a two-year stint in the UFL. While likely not to the same degree, can the Cowboys help Mims' career as they did Pickens' last year?
Years in NFL: 4*
Acquired by: Free agency (2026)
Mims was a second-round pick by the Jets in 2020, part of a loaded WR class that included CeeDee Lamb, Justin Jefferson, Brandon Aiyuk, Jerry Jeudy, and several others who've found steady, contributing roles in the NFL. But on top of entering the league during COVID, which that entire class had to overcome, Mims also missed most of his rookie training camp to injury. He didn't play until Week 7, but still had what ended up being his most productive season with 23 catches for 357 yards in nine games.
In Mims' second season, the Jets went from offensive-minded head coach Adam Gase to Robert Saleh, who brought in Matt LaFleur as a new offensive coordinator. This regime change, plus his own issues, hurt Mims' development and footing with the team. He went from eight starts as a rookie to just three in 2021. Mims requested a trade ahead of the 2022 seasons but was denied, and again was limited to a minor role in the WR rotation.
The Jets did finally trade him away in the 2023 offseason to the Lions, but he was waived/injured by Detroit midway through the preseason. He spent about two months on the Steelers' practice squad but didn't make it to their training camp the following year. The Jaguars gave him a look during their camp in 2024, but released him before final cuts.

He didn't play until Week 7, but still had what ended up being his most productive season with 23 catches for 357 yards in nine games.
In Mims' second season, the Jets went from offensive-minded head coach Adam Gase to Robert Saleh, who brought in Matt LaFleur as a new offensive coordinator. This regime change, plus his own issues, hurt Mims' development and footing with the team. He went from eight starts as a rookie to just three in 2021. Mims requested a trade ahead of the 2022 seasons but was denied, and again was limited to a minor role in the WR rotation.
The Jets did finally trade him away in the 2023 offseason to the Lions, but he was waived/injured by Detroit midway through the preseason. He spent about two months on the Steelers' practice squad but didn't make it to their training camp the following year. The Jaguars gave him a look during their camp in 2024, but released him before final cuts.

Welsh sprinter Jeremiah Azu missed out on a Commonwealth medal for the second games in a row after finishing fifth in the men's 100m final
It was the same position he managed in Birmingham four years ago.
The Welshman had eased through the heats and ran 10.00 seconds in his semi-final but could only manage 10.03 seconds in a rain-affected final won by Cameroon's Emmanuel Eseme.
"I don't feel like I really made any mistakes so it's a hard one to take. These guys are just running crazy fast," he said.
"I felt like I put a good race together. I thought it would be won in 9.9-low which I think I'm capable of, I just didn't put it together today.

Ohio State just announced its partnership with JPMorgan Chase and will place the bank's logo on jerseys across all 36 varsity sports from the 2026-27 season.
According to ESPN, the agreement is expected to generate nearly $17 million per year, making it one of the richest jersey patch deals in college sports to date. While the record-breaking deal represents a major financial win for the Buckeyes, it also sparked a heated debate among college football fans over the continued commercialization of the sport.
Many fans questioned whether jersey sponsorships belong in college athletics.
"Didn't realize Ohio State was poor. Yikes. This is a bad look," one fan wrote on X.
However, not everyone opposed the partnership.

The Golden State Warriors were a much-discussed free agency landing spot for LeBron James until he ultimately signed with the Philadelphia 76ers. Draymond Green has an indication why James didn't join him and Stephen Curry in the Bay Area.
In an episode of The Draymond Green Show, Green says the lengthy history between James and the Warriors factored into his decision to go elsewhere. James' Cleveland Cavaliers battled the Warriors in four consecutive NBA Finals, with the Cavaliers coming back from a 3-1 deficit in 2016 for their lone ***** le win over that stretch.
"I ultimately don't think Bron was ever able to get over the history and I understand it, I get it," Green said. "... He's gonna get crushed if he comes to the Warriors. 'Ah, man you went to team up with Steph.' ... And ultimately I think that weighed in on the decision a lot, that played a big role in the Warriors not landing LeBron."
The Warriors weren't able to land LeBron, but they kept their defensive stalwart in town by handing Green a one-year, $27.7 million extension, according to ESPN's Shams Charania.
With James heading to Philly, questions surrounding Curry's future have begun to emerge. Curry, 38, has a limited ***** le window, and yet the Warriors' roster is much thinner than it has been historically. If Golden State doesn't compete in 2026-27, it wouldn't be shocking to see Curry try and win a ***** le elsewhere, as he's hitting unrestricted free agency after the season. Perhaps he takes a discount deal like LeBron to play for a contender.

Homeownership is something many people aspire to and, in fact, 56% of adults describe owning your own property as a key part of the American Dream. Yet, many are struggling to buy a home of their own thanks to rising costs of both homes and mortgages.
But, what if you didn't buy a home but inherited one instead? For some, this may seem like a dream come true — but that's not the case in every situation. Let's pretend, for example, that Mika's grandmother, Enid, owns Mika's childhood home and wants Mika to inherit it.

HNB are reporting that Antwerp are considering bringing former QPR striker Michael Frey back to the club. The Swiss forward enjoyed a prolific time with the Belgian side but left during their **** le winning season after being replaced by Vincent Janssen. However, his move to QPR didn't go as planned and after a few months back in Switzerland he is now a free agent. Janssen has since departed Antwerp and the side could certainly do with having an experienced physical presence like Frey up front. It is not clear yet whether or not Frey is open to the return, given he did not leave Antwerp on the best of terms.
After coming through with Young Boys, Frey moved to Lille in 2014. After just 21 games and three goals, with a loan spell back in Switzerland with Luzern, he returned to Young Boys in 2016. Spells with FC Zurich and Fenerbahce followed, as well as a loan to FC Nurnberg, but Frey could not replicate the success he had had in Swiss football. That was until he joined Beveren, then Waasland-Beveren, on loan for the 2020/2021 season. Despite the sides relegation from the Pro League, Frey impressed with 17 goals in 31 games.
The following season Antwerp brought Frey to Belgium permanently. Frey enjoyed a fantastic first season with the club, scoring 24 goals in 46 games. However, after nine goals in 23 games the following season, Frey wanted to leave, with Janssen having taken his starting spot. Frey joined Schalke 04 initially on loan for the back end of the 2022/2023 season, but failed to score in 15 appearances.
In January of 2024 he left Antwerp permanently, joining QPR. After one goal in nine games, Frey entered the 2024/2025 season hoping to push on. He had a decent if not spectacular first full season for QPR, with nine goals in 31 games. However, he fell down the pecking order and after 13 games without a goal left to join Grasshopper back in Switzerland. Frey ended last season with the Zurich based side, scoring two goals in 16 games.

The Dallas Cowboys held their annual press conference to start training camp on Tuesday, and the idea of the offseason being free of drama came up a lot at the beginning.
Jerry Jones noted that he liked that perception and then matters turned to what lies ahead instead of what is in the rearview mirror. In a very non-Jerry way, the team's owner, president, and general manager was expressing such confidence in the group set to start out in Oxnard by saying that he would be willing to risk future ****** ets in the name of helping them.
Obviously that is a hint that Jones could orchestrate a trade to help the Cowboys. In fact, he said that he specifically spoke to an NFL team about "something" on Monday. It is worth noting that on Monday it was reported that Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Vita Vea requested a trade. That could just be coincidence, though.
As this conversation was going on, Jerry was asked why he and the team moved on from the Maxx Crosby situation after Crosby's trade from the Las Vegas Raiders to the Baltimore Ravens fell through. He thought long and hard and then was pretty pointed.
"We didn't. We did not walk away."

A year ago, the Bears signed cornerback Kyler Gordon to a three-year, $40 million contract extension. They didn't get much for their investment.
Gordon played in just three games last season as he struggled with groin, hamstring and calf injuries. Now he's on the physically unable to perform list to start training camp, and Bears General Manager Ryan Poles says everyone in Chicago is getting frustrated.
"Kyler Gordon on PUP, with his calf, he was here all offseason training, getting right. We had a delay in that. All hands on deck to get him back," Poles said. "He's frustrated, we're frustrated. We just want him back. He helps our football team. But we have to move forward with the guys we have, and when he's ready to go he'll be ready to go. Everybody here is putting all their time and effort to get him back right."
Asked how much time Gordon will miss, Poles said there's no word on that.
"I really don't know. He's got to get right and the important thing we've all talked about is when he gets back he's got to stay back," Poles said. "When he gets back he's got to earn that trust back."

Prince Harry reportedly doesn't just need to get back into the good graces of his father, King Charles III — he must prove himself to palace staff.
Rob Shuter previously reported in his Tuesday, July 14 edition of the Naughty But Nice Substack that royal staff didn't want the Duke of Sussex, 41, to stay at the palace during his visit to Britain earlier this month.
The Spare author is supposed to be back in England in September for engagements surrounding the WellChild Awards, and Charles, 77, may extend an invitation for Harry to stay at the palace during his visit, The Sun reported on Sunday, July 26.
However, in the Tuesday, July 28 edition of Naughty But Nice, a source said that "nothing has changed" with palace staffers' feelings.

Lamar Jackson shares the expectations of those who believe the Baltimore Ravens can contend for a Super Bowl. He is no longer interested in discussing those projections without results. Baltimore entered last season widely viewed as one of the NFL's most talented teams. The Ravens instead finished 8-9 and missed the postseason, providing Jackson with a direct response to another offseason of championship predictions.
"We were just 8-9," Jackson said on "The Lounge" podcast. "We were talking about it, but we didn't produce. So why talk about it? We've got to be about it."
Jackson still expects Baltimore to compete for the championship. His focus has shifted toward the daily work required to reach February rather than the destination itself.
"It starts now," Jackson said. "It starts each and every week. It doesn't just happen in February. We have to get there first."
That process includes improvement in meetings, practice, recovery and situational football. Jackson pointed to a recent training-camp practice in which the Ravens began and finished poorly. He viewed it as an opportunity to correct a pattern that has hurt Baltimore during previous seasons. The lesson was reinforced by Baltimore's playoff loss to Tennessee following the 2019 regular season. The Ravens entered that game with a 14-2 record and considerable expectations but fell behind early and never recovered.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — First responders searched damaged homes and buildings on Tuesday for possible victims of a powerful tornado that carved a path of destruction through several northeastern Wisconsin communities.
The twister touched down in the Fox Cities region, which includes Appleton, Menasha and Neenah, at around 1 p.m. Monday and remained on the ground for more than 20 minutes as it cut a roughly 12-mile path of destruction through an area, the National Weather Service reported. It was nearly a mile (1.6 kilometers) across at its widest, and it destroyed homes and businesses, flipped cars and knocked down rows of power lines in the region, which is roughly 100 miles (160 kilometers) northwest of Milwaukee.
The timing — it blew in when most people were awake and after warnings had been issued — could be why there have been no reported deaths, authorities said.
"I think what helped us was it was during the week," Menasha Police Chief Matt Albrecht said at a news conference Tuesday. "Everybody was at work. It was the middle of the day. Most people were not at home and at their place of employment."
Authorities said a number of people were injured and treated at hospitals, but they didn't know exactly how many or how seriously.

(NewsNation) — A year after pleading guilty to the murders of four University of Idaho students, Bryan Kohberger is challenging his conviction.
According to a handwritten post-conviction petition, the criminology student claims he was "convinced to falsely confess" to the crimes. He claims he was swayed into the plea deal that landed him life in prison through "coercion, disinformation, false promises, and the withholding of exculpatory discovery."
While Kohberger claims he had ineffective counsel who "misrepresented" what life in prison would be like, NewsNation contributor Ashleigh Banfield told Hena Doba on Monday she believes Kohberger's just bored.
"Life in prison is really awful," she said. "And when you're his age, you're facing about 70 years of this last one year that he's had. He didn't like his last year. He's been in solitary. It's boring. He's tired of it."
Clue points to one sender of Nancy Guthrie notes, profiler says

Kaitlyn Collins responded Monday to the string of insults President Trump lobbed at the CNN journalist during his first White House Correspondents' ****** ociation dinner speech, saying it was unsurprising, since hearing similar personal attacks has become normalized in the Oval Office.
The cable network's White House correspondent and anchor has become Trump's new favorite punching bag, and at Friday night's make-up dinner, he didn't hold back as he stumbled through a lengthy and exhausting speech. The pared-down event was rescheduled after a gunman attempted to enter the gala in April and fired a gun in an alleged attempt to kill Trump.

When Kat Friday, a revenue operations employee at financial technology firm Marqeta, first came across Pickle on TikTok in February 2025, she didn't think opening a storefront on the app would ever amount to much.
"I am not into fashion one bit. I wear all black everywhere," Friday tells Fortune. She initially opened the app to scan for a few outfits for an upcoming vacation. But as she scrolled through Pickle's more than 500,000 listings, Friday realized she also could use the platform to rent out an expensive camera sitting on a shelf collecting dust in her apartment.
In November 2025, she listed a Canon G7 X camera, which normally retails for around $1,000, for $150 a week, and waited for a response. The rentals came almost immediately.
"I never use this thing and people are dying for them," Friday says. "I immediately got a bunch of rentals for it, and I was like, 'Okay, I'm gonna list some other stuff.'"
The listing's success inspired Friday to add more items to her Pickle offerings, and she started uploading some shirts and dresses she barely wore. As her storefront grew, Friday even started purchasing "trendy" items in a variety of sizes, what she referred to as "investment pieces" to rent out on Pickle.

Detroit — Barring any unforeseen, last-second snag, Javier Báez is back.
"I'm anticipating him being available to us today in the big leagues," manager AJ Hinch said on his weekly segment on MLB Radio.
Báez, 33, hasn't played since severely spraining his ankle ducking and half-sliding trying to avoid a tag at first base in the Tigers' 5-2 loss at Atlanta on April 28.
"I don't know how I didn't break it," Báez said that night after preliminary imaging showed no fracture.
But it was a high-ankle sprain and the recovery process was slow. After having to be shut down from baseball activity for a stretch last month, he's been on a fast track back. He made two rehab starts at Low-A Lakeland before being transferred to Triple-A Toledo over the weekend.

90 Day Fiancé couple Jenny Slatten and Sumit Singh are pushing back on claims that her amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) diagnosis has worsened to the point where she has become dependent on her husband.
Slatten, 68, and Singh, 38, recently addressed the rumors in a video shared to Instagram on Monday, July 27.
"She is still able to do walking, talking, and everything, and she is not depending completely on anyone or even not on me," Singh began. "What you're seeing on some pages – people are posting that she is on a hospital bed and unable to do anything, which is a lie."
Slatten, who was sitting beside her husband in the clip, shook her head in agreement.
He added that she didn't "like" the rumors about her mobility, adding that they were "still hoping and praying that there will be a solution, that there will be a treatment" for Slatten's diagnosis.

When Florida State was preparing for the 2025 season, defensive tackle Kevin Wynn was looked at as one of the top incoming freshmen and a player who could have an immediate impact. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned for the former four-star prospect.
Wynn suffered an injury late in fall camp that held him out of FSU's win against the Alabama Crimson Tide in the season opener. He ended up playing in just four games last season and recorded one tackle. Now, Wynn is healthy, and he's also about 30 pounds lighter at 317.
According to defensive line coach Terrance Knighton, Wynn has made the most of his opportunities during the summer. He feels that Wynn has taken more strides than anyone.
"Juju, I think, had the biggest jump this summer. He's lost 40 pounds," Knighton said via Warchant. "He's moving well, which is helping his body with the day-to-day. Now, he's able to, like I said, focus on football. He's in great shape, and he's ready to show he can be an every-down player."
Wynn was an absolute force during his high school days at Greene County High School in Greensboro, Georgia. He racked up 84 tackles for loss and 14 sacks (seven as a senior). He displayed an incredible burst and great power, which is why he lived behind the line of scrimmage and became a top 100 recruit.

Wynn was an absolute force during his high school days at Greene County High School in Greensboro, Georgia. He racked up 84 tackles for loss and 14 sacks (seven as a senior). He displayed an incredible burst and great power, which is why he lived behind the line of scrimmage and became a top 100 recruit.
