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.

Renewable energy developer Avantus said its Aratina 1 solar-plus-storage project has entered commercial operation in California. The 200-MW/500-MWh installation in Kern County has long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) with Central Coast Community Energy (3CE) and Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE), a pair of community choice aggregators.Avantus on July 20 said the company will have a controlling stake in Aratina 1 and will operate the facility. The company said the project is among several **** ets it will oversee as it expands from a clean energy developer to an independent power producer (IPP)."Aratina 1 coming online marks a major milestone for Avantus as an independent power producer, providing reliable clean power to California communities for decades to come," said Cliff Graham, CEO of Avantus. "I'm incredibly proud of what Team Avantus built here. Their expertise across development, construction, financing and operations, and the trust our financing and CCA partners have placed in us, are the foundation we're building our long-term IPP model on.""The Aratina project is a powerful example of how community choice energy turns climate goals into real projects on the ground," said Robert Shaw, CEO of 3CE. "Our long-term commitment to 120 MW from this facility will deliver clean, affordable power to our customers while supporting California's transition away from fossil fuels. We're grateful to partner with Avantus on a project that strengthens grid reliability and invests in the Central Coast's clean energy future."
Avantus said a consortium of lenders, including Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp., Truist Securities, ING Capital, and Mizuho, provided financing of more than $500 million for Aratina 1. The project also secured a $300-million tax equity commitment from Truist Bank. Officials said the project created about 500 jobs at peak construction."The clean power generated from the Aratina project gets us one step closer to our climate goals. New projects like this are critical in increasing statewide clean capacity and reliability as we reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and move towards an all-electric future," said Monica Padilla, CEO of SVCE.Avantus on Monday said that Aratina 2, the second phase of the Aratina Solar Center, located adjacent to Aratina 1, is currently under construction. Aratina 2 recently closed more than $525 million in financing and is targeting commercial operation before year-end. The Aratina Solar Center when complete will represent a combined 350 MW of solar and 952 MWh of energy storage.Avantus develops, owns, and operates utility-scale clean energy projects across California and the Desert Southwest. The company is backed by strategic investment from KKR and EIG. The company earlier this year closed a financing package of more than $300 million for a project in Arizona.Avantus and Clean Power Alliance, another community choice aggregator, earlier in July announced a 20-year PPA for the Rexford 2 solar-plus-s

Dave Nadig, President & Director of Research at ETF.com and Sumit Roy, Senior ETF ******* yst at ETF.com, are joined this week by Cinthia Murphy, Director of Research at TMX VettaFi; Jeffrey Ptak, Managing Director at Morningstar; and Todd Sohn, Senior ETF & Technical Strategist at Baird Strategas. Together the group digs into mid-year flows, the impending Nasdaq-100 buy-in of ******* eX, and more.
Halfway through 2026, and the ETF industry is having an absolutely wild year, with over a trillion dollars flowing into ETFs already, putting the industry on pace to potentially crack two trillion by year's end. But the real story isn't just the mega-funds like VOO and SPY hoovering up cash; it's how deep the enthusiasm runs, according to Sumit Roy. Dozens of ETFs are pulling in billions each, spanning everything from leveraged single-stock bets to total market funds. Meanwhile, Morningstar's Jeff Ptak brought some Washington color to the conversation, fresh off testifying before the House Capital Markets Subcommittee. His message to lawmakers: low-cost, transparent products are winning, and that's great for investors but as the industry pushes into murkier territory like private ******* ets, the same disclosure standards need to follow.
Performance-wise, it's an AI world and everyone's just trading in it. The S&P 500 is up a very respectable 10% at the midpoint, but that barely registers next to leveraged Micron ETFs up near 1,000%, or the parade of semiconductor and AI-adjacent funds dominating the leaderboard. And then there's ******* eX, the topic the panel apparently can't escape. With the company's IPO shares about to unlock for trading in the Nasdaq 100 complex, Ptak walked through his tracker of the four vehicles that have offered ******* eX exposure and how they held up post-IPO. Cinthia Murphy summed it up as less a performance story and more about getting as close to direct exposure as possible but the second real single-stock access became available, people bailed on the proxy.
Murphy also flagged a fascinating quirk in factor investing: Micron, despite rocketing roughly 800% in a year, is technically cheap enough on forward earnings to qualify as a value stock. That means it's become a massive holding in value-labeled ETFs like iShares' MSCI Value fund, essentially because the index methodology forces flat sector weighting. The group also tackled the leveraged and inverse ETF boom, now a hefty 17% of all ETF trading volume, or roughly $500 billion in notional exposure once multipliers are counted. The discussion covered everything from counterparty risks to the new issuer in town that's shaking up the leveraged ******* e with low-cost fees.

• Tech is dominating ETF flows in a way that's hard to ignore. Since the March 30 low, tech ETFs have pulled in $27 billion as of recording, while every other sector combined has seen net outflows. What’s more, semiconductors are now larger than the entire defensive sector, with tech making up nearly 40% of the S&P 500.
• Vanguard's VOO has officially crossed $1 trillion to overtake SPY as the largest S&P 500 ETF. The Zoo crew discussed the milestone, crediting structural advantages like dividend reinvestment and lower costs, for VOO’s consistent gains. It’s a clear signal that despite active innovation and investor interest, passive, low-cost investing will always win the day.
• Bitcoin is losing the attention war to AI, but it's not a traditional crypto winter. Without a major crisis like FTX to blame, the group largely agreed that AI is simply sucking the oxygen out of the room, leaving Bitcoin and Ethereum looking boring by comparison while niche tokens like Hyperliquid hit new highs.
