(Reuters) – Tempur Sealy (NYSE:) International said on Monday it plans to sell more than 100 stores in a bid to get regulatory approval for its $4 billion deal with Mattress Firm. Tempur Sealy’s merger with Mattress Firm, which would create a combined empire of about 3,000 stores globally, raised concerns about price hikes and job losses and led the U.S. Federal Trade Commission to sue in July to block the merger. The mattress manufacturer, which has been acquiring retailers to expand its presence in the segment, now plans to sell 73 Mattress Firm locations to independently owned bedding specialty…
A small number of Rivian R1S electric SUVs produced between April 30 and June 6, 2024, may have been shipped with steering column control modules lacking cruise control markings, a violation of federal safety standards. Rivian has issued a recall for 33 affected vehicles delivered in the United States. The missing markings could potentially increase the risk of a crash, as drivers may not be aware of how to activate or deactivate the cruise control system. This could lead to unintended acceleration or deceleration, especially in situations like heavy traffic or changing road conditions. While Rivian has confirmed no accidents…
The Kia Seltos, situated between the Soul and Sportage, received a facelift for the 2025 model year. However, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) deemed the 2024 model deficient in six areas, including the updated moderate overlap front crash test. The IIHS uses a four-tier rating system: good, acceptable, marginal, and poor. The Seltos fell short of a good rating, with the driver potentially suffering leg or foot injuries in a moderate overlap front crash. Additionally, the rear passenger’s shoulder belt moved excessively upward, compromising safety. 2025 Kia Seltos Facelift (IIHS on YouTube) Further shortcomings included a marginal rating…
Image source: Getty Images I think I’ve found a hidden gem. It’s called MP Evans Group (LSE:MPE) and three analysts currently cover it. The average 12-month price target these bankers have on the shares indicates a 32% increase in price. Furthermore, with a 5% dividend yield for passive income, if those forecasts are right, I could have a total return of 37% on my hands in just one year. The palm oil business MP Evans focuses on producing sustainable crude palm oil in five provinces across Indonesia. It also has a stake in a property company in Malaysia. The company’s…

The Plymouth Barracuda, a formidable predator of the sea, has an equally fearsome counterpart in the automotive world. While the aquatic Barracuda is known for its predatory nature and snake like appearance, the automotive Barracuda, a two door pony car produced by Chrysler from 1964 to 1974, was introduced to challenge Ford’s Mustang. Originally based on the compact Valiant, the Barracuda was initially overshadowed by the Mustang’s success. However, with each generation, the Barracuda evolved, becoming more distinct and powerful, eventually earning its reputation as a “predator on wheels.” 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S (Motor) The first-generation Barracuda, introduced in…

It said 131,000 civilians had left the most dangerous areas of the region but accused…
The Chrysler 300, while not as iconic as the New Yorker or Imperial, has a rich history that spans several decades and encompasses a variety of models. This nameplate, which has been used on four distinct vehicle lines, has been an important part of Chrysler’s lineup since its introduction in 1955. The original C-300, a homologation special and the first American car to produce one horsepower per cubic inch marked the beginning of the 300 “letter series.” This series, which lasted until 1965, is widely regarded as one of the first muscle car lines in America. In 1962, Chrysler introduced…
