What's New An inch of fresh snowfall brought extra holiday cheer to New York City on Tuesday, increasing the chances that Central Park could have its first white Christmas in 15 years. Why It Matters As Christmas Day gets closer, forecasts reveal which states and cities could have a snow-covered holiday . New York City could be included in that list for the first time in 15 years as Central Park saw one inch of snow Christmas Eve morning, the official amount needed to qualify as a "white Christmas." Temperatures above freezing could melt some of the snow before the holiday. What to Know Snow showers moved through the New York area early Tuesday morning, the National Weather Service (NWS) office in New York City said. In a post on X, formerly Twitter , the NWS New York said that up to 2 inches of snow was expected to accumulate north of the city. As the snow showers tracked east, they were weakening, meaning it could be less than an inch for New York City, though there was enough for a fresh dusting. According to official records, an inch fell in New York City, adding to an inch that was already on the ground. People took to social media to celebrate how Central Park turned into a winter wonderland. However, temperatures are currently at 32 degrees Fahrenheit with a high of 37 degrees expected along with sunny weather, meaning some of that fresh snow will likely melt. What People Are Saying NWS meteorologist Bryan Ramsey told Newsweek : No more snow is expected in Central Park before Christmas, but there's a chance some could remain on the ground. "It is going to get above freezing, so some of it may melt with the sunshine, but the question is how much. The last time it snowed on Christmas Eve was 2021, when we saw two-tenths of an inch." FOX Weather shared a post and photos of the snow on X: "MAGICAL! Is there anything more wonderful than snow in New York City? How about snow on Christmas Eve?! The Big Apple 's snowiest Christmas Eve ever was 11.4" in 1912; that's the same year the Titanic sunk! The last white Christmas was in 2009." NWS office in New York asked people to share their Christmas Eve snow totals on X: "SHARE your Christmas Eve snow totals! - Take average of 3 measurements on flat surface (not grass) to 0.1" accuracy away from buildings/trees - Snow boards preferred - Include a photo of measurement, if possible - Exact location (town + intersection) - Observation time." What Happens Next Some of the snow could melt before Christmas morning, meaning the accumulation could fall below the one-inch threshold for a white Christmas. There are no weather alerts in place for the New York City area, meaning roads are clear for last-minute holiday travel occurring on Tuesday and Wednesday.PITTSBURGH – Five Pitt football players were named to the 2024 all-Atlantic Coast Conference teams. Desmond Reid was a first-team selection as an all-purpose back and return specialist. The Panthers' other first-team pick was linebacker Kyle Louis, whose 150 voting points were the highest of any linebacker on the all-ACC team and 18 more than the second-highest vote getter. Safety Donovan McMillon was named to the second team, while linebacker Rasheem Biles and placekicker Ben Sauls were third-team honorees. Reid averaged 150.9 all-purpose yards per game to rank sixth nationally. Reid additionally averaged an ACC-best 12.3 yards per punt return, which ranked ninth in the country. Louis established himself as one of college football's most productive defenders regardless of position. He has compiled 96 tackles, 15.5 stops for loss, seven sacks, four interceptions and a forced fumble. The last Football Bowl Subdivision player to achieve that stat line was Utah consensus All-America linebacker Devin Lloyd in 2021. McMillon collected a team-high 108 tackles this season. He had 105 stops in 2023. McMillon is the first Pitt player to achieve consecutive 100-tackle seasons since linebacker Scott McKillop in 2007-08. Biles has totaled 77 tackles, 14.5 stops for loss, 5.5 sacks and an interception that was returned for a touchdown against Syracuse. His average of 1.3 tackles for loss per game ranks 10th nationally. Sauls has a team-high 95 points, converting 18 of 21 field goals and each of his 41 extra-point tries. Sauls leads the nation with three made field goals of 55-plus yards. His five field goals of 50-plus yards is a Pitt season record, while his 58-yarder matches the longest in school annals (tied with Alex Kessman in 2020). Panthers receiving all-ACC honorable mention recognition were running back Reid, tight end Gavin Bartholomew, defensive tackle Nick James and wide receiver Konata Mumpfield.

Alexander Mashinsky , 58, of Manhattan, entered the plea in New York federal court to commodities and securities fraud. He admitted illegally manipulating the price of Celsius’s proprietary crypto token while secretly selling his own tokens at inflated prices to pocket about $48 million before Celsius collapsed into bankruptcy in 2022. In court, he admitted that in 2021 he publicly suggested there was regulatory consent for the company's moves because he knew that customers “would find false comfort” with that. And he said that in 2019, he was selling the crypto tokens even though he told the public that he was not. He said he knew customers would draw false comfort from that too. “I accept full responsibility for my actions,” Mashinsky said of crimes that stretched from 2018 to 2022 as the company pitched itself to customers as a modern-day bank where they could safely deposit crypto assets and earn interest. U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said in a release that Mashinsky “orchestrated one of the biggest frauds in the crypto industry” as his company's assets purportedly grew to about $25 billion at its peak, making it one of the largest crypto platforms in the world. He said Mashinsky used catchy slogans like “Unbank Yourself” to entice prospective customers with a pledge that their money would be as safe in crypto accounts as money would be in a bank. Meanwhile, prosecutors said, Mashinsky and co-conspirators used customer deposits to fund market purchases of the Celsius token to prop up its value. Machinsky made tens of millions of dollars selling his own CEL tokens at artificially high prices, leaving his customers “holding the bag when the company went bankrupt,” Williams said. An indictment alleged that Mashinsky promoted Celsius through media interviews, his social media accounts and Celsius’ website, along with a weekly “Ask Mashinsky Anything” session broadcast that was posted to Celsius’ website and a YouTube channel. Celsius employees from multiple departments who noticed false and misleading statements in the sessions warned Mashinsky, but they were ignored, the indictment said. A plea agreement Mashinsky made with prosecutors calls for him to be sentenced to up to 30 years in prison and to forfeit over $48 million, which is the amount of money he allegedly made by selling his company's token. Sentencing was scheduled for April 8.

In a statement released on Saturday, some indigenes under the aegis of the Yewa Youths Progressive Movement stated that Ogun Westerners are predominantly farmers, traders, and business owners, not smugglers. The statement, jointly signed by its Chairman and Publicity Secretary, Adeoye Akinola and Sunday Adeyemi, respectively, said, “The border communities have grown from being havens for smugglers who thronged the areas from across the country to locations where legitimate inter-border businesses now thrive.” The YYPM further stated that after the immediate past administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari announced a ban on rice imports via land borders, traders and residents in the border communities quickly diversified into other forms of business. The statement revealed that several entrepreneurs in the region invested heavily in cultivating and producing local rice, aligning with the Federal Government’s policy of promoting homegrown food. The group added, “Residents of these border communities, especially the youth, have continued to collaborate with the Nigerian Customs Service to curb smuggling and other inter-border economic sabotage.” Similarly, a non-governmental organisation, Vanguard of Liberty & Social Justice, criticised the food importation ban, arguing that it has failed to positively impact Nigeria’s economy or improve the lives of ordinary citizens. Related News Anti-Tinubu comments: ACF suspends chairman as Afenifere, others back President Onnoghen’s A’Court verdict fails to tackle key points –Lawyers Tragic incidents: Buhari visits Borno, Jigawa, condoles with victims The group condemned social media reports labelling Ogun border residents as smugglers, stating that such claims are detrimental to national unity during these challenging times. According to a statement by the group’s National Coordinator, Olugbenle Fadina, “The current economic situation in Nigeria, where inflation is at a ‘galloping stage,’ has impoverished the majority of households. “The intensity of hunger in Nigeria is extremely alarming and unbearable, making life meaningless for many Nigerians and calling for urgent measures to ease the mounting tension. “The Federal Government’s policy banning foreign goods, especially food items, has not yielded positive results for the critical sectors of the Nigerian economy or the welfare of ordinary Nigerians. There is an urgent need to review this policy, which appears irrational and outdated.” The group urged the media to report on the plight of border residents and hold the government accountable, emphasising the need for journalism to prioritise the common good. “The salient question remains: how has the average Nigerian benefited from the Federal Government’s policy on food importation? How does importing food threaten national security and welfare?” the statement queried. The group concluded by calling for pressure on the government to reverse its “illogical” food importation policy in the face of widespread hunger.

In the current session, the stock is trading at $113.82, after a 0.65% spike. Over the past month, Arista Networks Inc. ANET stock increased by 11.50% , and in the past year, by 91.51% . With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued. Comparing Arista Networks P/E Against Its Peers The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. Arista Networks has a better P/E ratio of 54.3 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 49.32 of the Communications Equipment industry. Ideally, one might believe that Arista Networks Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes. © 2024 Benzinga.com.
