In the past few weeks, Comcast’s CEO, Brian Roberts, has wrestled with the shocking loss of NBCUniversal’s CEO, Jeff Shell, who’s facing a sexual-harassment scandal, and a Hollywood writers’ strike threatening to wreck programming for the foreseeable future.
Now Yaccarino, a top advertising executive who worked at the company for 12 years, has quit and been named by Elon Musk as the new Twitter CEO — days before NBCUniversal’s major annual upfront presentation to advertisers.
One advertising executive who works closely with NBCUniversal described the situation inside the company as a “Cuban missile crisis.” “This couldn’t have happened at a worse time,” this person added.
Home Depot posts worst revenue miss in about 20 years
HD down 5% Home Depot reported fiscal first quarter 2023 earnings results that showed the worst miss in 20 years, as consumer spending on home improvement softened compared to during the pandemic boom.
Following the report, shares fell more than 4% in pre-market trading. In the fiscal first quarter of 2023, revenue dropped 4.2% compared with the first quarter last year.
While the home-improvement retailer beat on earnings, same-store sales growth came in far lower than expected, down 4.5%, compared with analyst estimates for a fall of 1.42%.

Democrats’ Memo Emphasizes Support for SEC’s Authority Over Crypto Regulation, Urges Focus on Debt Ceiling Bill
According to the Democrats, the #SEC must be allowed to "continue to lead the regulation of the U.S. #crypto market." #innovation https://t.co/mGamonJXRA

A memo was distributed among Democrat Committee members before a joint hearing on digital asset regulation by the Financial Committee and House Agriculture Committee.
The memo outlined “key messages” for the Democrats to emphasize, including support for the SEC’s complete authority over cryptocurrency regulation, the belief that most cryptocurrencies are securities, and the idea that the primary issue with crypto is widespread non-compliance rather than ambiguity.
The messaging also criticized Committee Republicans for seeking to reduce financial regulators’ budgets, suggesting they should prioritize passing a clean debt ceiling bill instead of promoting pro-crypto legislation.
