Guaranteed Rate Donates Over $3 Million to Children in Need Through New Initiative

PR Newswire

CHICAGO, Nov. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Guaranteed Rate, one of the largest retail mortgage lenders in the country, today announces that its employee-driven fundraising effort has donated over $3.3 million to Baby2Baby, a non-profit organization that provides basic necessities to children living in poverty.

Through its new initiative, Guaranteed Love, the company’s employees, families and friends raised over $1.1 million in just 10 days. With a two-for-one-dollar company match, Guaranteed Rate Companies donated a total of $3,381,943 to Baby2Baby.

“This is very, very powerful,” said Guaranteed Rate President and CEO Victor Ciardelli. “We’re seeing so many people in need, with nowhere else to turn. As a company, we are blessed to be in a position to make such a positive difference. We have an amazing group of incredibly generous employees who came together yet again to make a real impact on so many families and children. By working together, we can accomplish amazing things.”

With 100% of the funds going directly to children in need, Guaranteed Rate’s donation will help provide essential items to over 150,000 children nationwide this holiday season.

The amount donated helps provide approximately 4 million diapers, 80,000 cans of formula, 80,000 packs of wipes, 40,000 warm coats, 40,000 blankets, 12,000 pairs of pajamas and 12,000 toys.

“We are so grateful to Guaranteed Rate for selecting Baby2Baby as the nonprofit partner for its Guaranteed Love campaign,” shared Baby2Baby Co-CEOs Norah Weinstein and Kelly Sawyer Patricof.  “The generosity of their employees coupled with the company’s match will allow us to distribute millions of dollars worth of basic essentials to children across the country impacted by the pandemic in their biggest time of need.”

In the United States, one in three families struggles to provide necessities, such as diapers, to their children. As demand increases during the COVID-19 crisis, Baby2Baby has donated over 40 million basic essentials to vulnerable children. With strong buying power, Baby2Baby is able to buy these essentials substantially below retail cost, more than doubling the value of the donation.

“Karma is a real thing. I’m a big believer that the more you give, the more it all comes back,” said Ciardelli, who has instilled the value of giving back into Guaranteed Rate’s culture. “We care so much about this that our #1 core value is that We Grow For Good, so the more we grow, the more good we can do to help people in need. This year, we’ve doubled loan volume to $73B, and tripled revenue from $1B to $3B. We’re so thankful to be in a position to help.”

Guaranteed Love is one of many initiatives organized by Guaranteed Rate and its 501(c)(3) public charity, the Guaranteed Rate Foundation. As the pandemic impacts families and communities nationwide, Guaranteed Rate is focused on providing more relief than ever by organizing fundraising campaigns to combat hunger and donating more than $4.2 million to over 1,400 individuals through the Guaranteed Rate Foundation.

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–

According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period and regarding the development of the Oyu Tolgoi copper-gold mine in Mongolia, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the stability issues were much more severe than represented and called into question the design of the mine, the projected cost and timing of production; (2) the publicly disclosed estimates of the cost, date of completion and dates for production from the underground mine were not achievable; (3) the “challenging ground conditions” were much more severe than defendants represented, and in fact made it impossible for Turquoise Hill and Rio Tinto to achieve those estimates; (4) the development capital required for the underground development of Oyu Tolgoi would cost substantially more than a billion dollars over what Turquoise Hill and Rio Tinto had represented; (5) Turquoise Hill would require additional financing and/or equity to complete the project; (6) the progress of underground development and of Oyu Tolgoi was not proceeding as planned; and (7) the “key risks” had not been “well understood and managed” but had placed the project schedule and cost into severe jeopardy. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

Insight Select Income Fund Announces Voting Results of Special Meeting of Shareholders

Insight Select Income Fund Announces Voting Results of Special Meeting of Shareholders

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Insight Select Income Fund (NYSE: INSI) (the “Fund”) today announced the results of the Fund’s Special Meeting of Shareholders held on November 5, 2020, and adjourned until November 24, 2020.

Results of the Special Meeting of Shareholders

At the meeting, shareholders approved all of the proposals presented including (i) an amendment to the investment advisory agreement with Insight North America LLC (the “Adviser”) to compensate the Adviser based on managed assets; (ii) revisions to the Fund’s fundamental investment policy relating to borrowing money to permit the Fund to borrow up to the limits of the Investment Company Act of 1940; (iii) and the revision or elimination of the Fund’s other fundamental policies as set forth in the proxy statement sent to shareholder of record on September 10, 2020. Accordingly, pursuant to the Fund’s amended fundamental investment policies, the Fund will not:

  1. Borrow money, except to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, as such may be interpreted or modified by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction, from time to time.
  2. Issue senior securities, except to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, as such may be interpreted or modified by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction, from time to time.
  3. Act as an underwriter of securities within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, as such may be interpreted or modified by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction, from time to time.
  4. “Concentrate” its investments in an industry, except to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, as such may be interpreted or modified by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction, from time to time.
  5. Purchase or sell real estate, except to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, as such may be interpreted or modified by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction, from time to time.
  6. Purchase or sell commodities, except to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, as such may be interpreted or modified by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction, from time to time.
  7. Make loans to other persons, except to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, as such may be interpreted or modified by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction, from time to time.

Change in Investment Strategy with respect to Leverage

With the changes to the Fund’s fundamental investment policies approved by the Fund’s shareholders, the Fund may use leverage to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. The Fund is permitted to obtain leverage using any form or combination of financial leverage instruments, including through funds borrowed from banks or other financial institutions (i.e., a credit facility), margin facilities, the issuance of preferred shares or notes and leverage generated by certain other transactions. As disclosed in the Proxy Statement, the Adviser has proposed establishing a credit facility secured by the Fund’s assets from which the Fund could borrow money to be invested pursuant to the Fund’s existing investment strategy. The Fund may use leverage opportunistically and may use different types, combinations or amounts of leverage over time, based on the Adviser’s views concerning market conditions and investment opportunities. Since the investment advisory fee is calculated based on the Fund’s managed assets (i.e., total assets of the Fund, less its liabilities other than Fund liabilities incurred for investment purposes), any leverage employed by the Fund will result in an increase in the investment advisory fee payable to the Adviser.

Leverage will magnify investment, market and certain other risks. Leverage involves risks including: the likelihood of greater volatility of net asset value and market price of the shares than a comparable portfolio without leverage; the risk that fluctuations in interest rates on borrowings and short-term debt or senior securities that the Fund may pay will reduce the return to common shares or will result in fluctuations in the dividends paid on the common shares; the effect of leverage in a declining market, which is likely to cause a greater decline in the net asset value of the common shares than if the Fund were not leveraged, which may result in a greater decline in the market price of the common shares; and when the Fund uses leverage, the investment advisory fee payable by the Fund to the Adviser will be higher than if the Fund did not use leverage. Leverage increases a fund’s losses when the value of its investments declines. For example, leverage would have amplified the volatility of the Fund’s returns during the market volatility caused by the recent onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Fund’s strategies relating to its use of leverage may not be successful, and the Fund’s use of leverage will cause the Fund’s NAV to be more volatile than it would otherwise be. There can be no guarantee that the Fund will leverage its assets or, to the extent the Fund does utilize leverage, what percentage of its assets such leverage will represent.

The Fund is a diversified closed-end management investment company whose investment objective is to seek a high rate of return, primarily from interest income and trading activity, from a portfolio principally consisting of debt securities. The Fund will also seek capital appreciation principally by purchasing debt securities at prices that the Adviser believes are below their intrinsic value. The Fund will also look to benefit from trading securities to optimize the risk adjusted yields in the Fund. Insight North America LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser, provides fixed income asset management to a variety of institutional clients including corporations, governmental entities, employee benefit plans, private funds and registered investment companies.

An investor should consider a Fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing.

Gainey McKenna & Egleston Announces A Class Action Lawsuit Has Been Filed Against Pinterest, Inc. (PINS)

NEW YORK, Nov. 24, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Pinterest, Inc. (“Pinterest” or the “Company”) (NYSE: PINS) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of those who purchased or acquired the securities of Pinterest between May 16, 2019 and November 1, 2019, inclusive (the “Class Period”). The lawsuit seeks to recover damages for Pinterest investors under the federal securities laws.

The Complaint alleges that Pinterest made false and misleading statements to the public throughout the Class Period and failed to disclose that: (i) the Company’s addressable market in the U.S. was reaching its maximum capacity; (ii) which significantly decelerated Pinterest’s future ability to monetize on U.S. average revenue per user; (iii) Pinterest was at an increased risk of losing advertising revenue; (iv) and as a result, defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times or lacked a reasonable basis and omitted material facts.

On October 31, 2019, the Company announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The Company reported disappointing financial results, including 8% growth in the U.S. MAUs year over year, reaching 87 million, only 8 million more than the same period of the previous year. Pinterest also missed its consensus projections and reported lower than expected U.S. advertising revenue. The Company only marginally increased its full year 2019 guidance, implying further deceleration in the future quarters. On this news, the price of the Company’s shares steeply declined by 17%, to close at $20.86 on November 1, 2019.

Investors who purchased or otherwise acquired shares of Pinterest pursuant to the Offering and/or during the Class Period should contact the Firm prior to the January 21, 2021 lead plaintiff motion deadline. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.  If you wish to discuss your rights or interests regarding this class action, please contact Thomas J. McKenna, Esq. or Gregory M. Egleston, Esq. of Gainey McKenna & Egleston at (212) 983-1300, or via e-mail at [email protected] or [email protected].

Gainey McKenna & Egleston Announces A Class Action Lawsuit Has Been Filed Against Berry Corporation (BRY)

NEW YORK, Nov. 24, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Berry Corporation (“Berry” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BRY) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas on behalf of those who purchased or acquired the securities of Berry (a) pursuant and/or traceable to the Company’s initial public offering conducted on or about July 26, 2018 (the “IPO” or “Offering”); or (b) between July 26, 2018 and November 3, 2020, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”).

The Complaint alleges that Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s business, operational and compliance policies. Specifically, the Offering Documents and Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Berry had materially overstated its operational efficiency and stability; (2) Berry’s operational inefficiency and instability would foreseeably necessitate operational improvements that would disrupt the Company’s productivity and increase costs; (3) the foregoing would foreseeably negatively impact the Company’s revenues; and (4) as a result, the Offering Documents and the Company’s public statements were materially false and/or misleading and failed to state information required to be stated therein.

On November 3, 2020, Berry reported its financial and operating results for the third quarter of 2020. Among other results, Berry reported non-GAAP EPS and revenue that both fell short of estimates. In addition, Berry reported that during the quarter, “the Company undertook certain operational improvements that caused temporary reductions in our production. Notably, we performed some plugging and abandonment activity that resulted in the temporary shut-in of nearby wells. Additionally, improved steam management reduced overall costs but temporarily increased water disposal and well maintenance needs, resulting in a slight decrease in production.” On this news, the Company’s stock price fell $0.15 per share, or 5.28%, to close at $2.69 per share on November 4, 2020, representing an 80.78% decline from the IPO price.

Investors who purchased or otherwise acquired shares of Berry pursuant to the Offering and/or during the Class Period should contact the Firm prior to the January 21, 2021 lead plaintiff motion deadline. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.  If you wish to discuss your rights or interests regarding this class action, please contact Thomas J. McKenna, Esq. or Gregory M. Egleston, Esq. of Gainey McKenna & Egleston at (212) 983-1300, or via e-mail at [email protected] or [email protected].

Nuke Nutrition Premium Supplements Coming to American Consumers Who Continue Their Love Affair With Dietary Supplements

Council for Responsible Nutrition: 73 Percent of American Consumers Use Dietary Supplements

PALM BEACH, FL, Nov. 24, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — For the fourth year in a row, more than 70 percent of Americans reported that they use dietary supplements as part of their health regimen.

The Council for Responsible Nutrition’s Annual 2020 Survey reported that 73 percent of Americans use dietary supplements.  Since the start of the pandemic, 91 percent of Americans who have changed their supplement routine have increased their intake.

“It is obvious that Americans believe in dietary supplements,” said Dan Povey, managing director of Nuke Nutrition in the United Kingdom. “Forty percent of consumers take dietary supplements because of their health and wellness benefits.”

Povey, who has worked in the UK nutraceutical industry for more than a decade, said Nuke Nutrition offers premium dietary supplements at an affordable price.

“Nuke Nutrition supplements are perfect for people who workout frequently or who want to lose weight to get healthier,” Povey said. “We don’t believe people should have to buy low-quality supplements because of the price for premium brands.”

With Nuke Nutrition, consumers have high-quality supplements they can afford.

The elite supplements that will soon debut in America include:

  • Lipo Loss Fat Burners is the latest breakthrough in scientific weight loss.
  • PCT, or post cycle therapy testosterone booster and test support, is used to level out hormone levels after taking a testosterone supplement. You can also use PCT as a stand-alone testosterone booster.
  • T-Bullets is the strongest testosterone booster on the market and vegan-friendly. Anyone who wants to gain huge muscle mass will need Nuke Nutrition T-Bullets.
  • T6 Thermo Blitz Fat Burners is for fast weight loss. It is a thermogenic diet supplement with an energy boost provided by caffeine, green tea, Guarana, and Bitter Orange Extract.
  • Test Rage XL is a testosterone booster, male enhancer, and libido supplement.
  • Sleep Enhance, formerly called Mood Enhance, is a supplement that helps reduce stress, anxiety, and insomnia

“Eighteen to forty-five year old consumers who work out frequently or who want to lose weight are the target audience for these six supplements,” Povey said.  “If you are looking for premium supplements that are affordable, check out Nuke Nutrition.”
