Teens Struggle To Score First Car As Used Car Prices Remain Absurd American teenagers have gotten the short end of the stick for more than two years - being forced to attend school either in a mask or via Zoom, while missing out on countless rites of passage despite their virtually nonexistent chance of falling seriously ill from Covid-19. And now - as the far more mild Omicron strain enters the rear-view mirror and things begin to return to normal - used cars have become so expensive that many teens can''t afford them , according to the Wall Street Journal . Used car prices were already rising before the pandemic - however in the last two years, supply-chain disruptions have caused significant production problems throughout the auto industry. In January, the average listing price for a preowned car reached $28,500 - a 31% jump over last January . New vehicles rose 12% over the same period - causing price-sensitive buyers, particularly younger ones, to hold off on their first vehicle. The Manheim US Used Car index was up 45% y/y in January. " It was definitely very frustrating, especially because all my friends have cars ," said 16-year-old Chase Smith, who was priced out of the market and forced to keep taking the bus one-hour each way to her school in upstate New York. "But in the end, I just know it’s a smart decision," she said.

TOKYO: Tokyo stocks ended lower Friday as concerns over Ukraine gripped investors despite Washington''s announcement that Secretary of State Antony Blinken has accepted an invitation to meet his Russian counterpart. The benchmark Nikkei 225 index dropped 0.41 percent, or 110.80 points, to 27,122.07 while the broader Topix index lost 0.36 percent, or 6.93 points, to 1,924.31. The dollar stood at 115.17 yen in Asian trade, against 114.91 yen seen on Thursday in New York. Tracking falls on Wall Street, the Nikkei opened sharply lower amid continued uncertainty over the standoff in Ukraine. Tokyo stocks close lower on Ukraine fears But buybacks then took hold among investors on the news that Blinken has agreed to meet Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov next week, provided there is no invasion before then. The announcement "reassured the market that at the very least, there is unlikely to be any imminent invasion by Russia," Makoto Sengoku, senior equity market analyst at Tokai Tokyo Securities, told AFP. "The prospect of Washington-Moscow talks offered slight hopes of a resolution to the current crisis, and that kind of expectation likely helped narrow drops," Sengoku said.

Blockchain is steadily gaining ground as an innovative technology that global industries can use to build applications and platforms that can help improve current systems and processes, reduce costs from third-party contractors, maximize profits, and create next-generation platforms and applications. However, not all blockchains are equipped with the ability to scale to efficiently handle big data needs. Imagine the collective amount of data being generated on a daily basis by a global enterprise, such as Walmart or Toyota. Now, imagine all of its data being stored on the blockchain, such as supply chain, inventory, accounting and customer records. A blockchain needs to be scaled to be able to accommodate such massive amounts of data without crashing or causing failed transactions. Scaling is especially relevant for online platforms, such as gaming and eSports, because they generate a huge amount of data as almost everything is based and stored online. For eSports on blockchain to work efficiently, a scalable blockchain with a stable protocol is needed.
