Happy Friday, readers! I'm Emilia David. I'm glad we made it to the weekend.
I'm writing this from Insider's New York office. Maybe you don't want to think about the office this weekend (or any weekend). But what if your office had restaurants, a movie theater, and a hotel?

Happy Friday, team. I'm Phil Rosen. This week we've seen a storm of economic data in the US.
The alphabet soup of readings — CPI, PPI, and jobless claims — all point to cooling inflation and a softening labor market.

Hey readers. I'm Phil Rosen, writing to you from midtown Manhattan, where I've attended a handful of events the last two days for NFT NYC. Across cocktail parties and dance floors, everyone here is bullish on tiny digital images that range from apes to stick-figure drawings.
Hiya! Dan DeFrancesco in NYC, and as a frequent orderer of takeout, I'm enthralled by the recent debate over tipping etiquette for delivery drivers.
It's hump day. I'm Emilia David, and welcome back, readers.
Well, well, well if it isn't another CPI day. Phil Rosen here — March's inflation report is due at 8:30 a.m. ET today.
Here's how FactSet data predicts things to shake out:
Hey there! Dan DeFrancesco in NYC. I know we are getting close to beach season, but I'm not sure shelling out $14,000 on fake ab surgery is money well spent. Take a look at the pics, and you be the judge.
Hello there and Happy Tuesday, I'm Emilia David, filling in for your regular host Diamond Naga Siu this week.
As an elder millennial living in one of the most expensive cities in the world, I often worry about money. I'm not alone in feeling uncertain about finances, either.
