How the stock market defied expectations again this year, by the numbers
A pizza delivery worker, upset about a tip, allegedly repeatedly stabbed a customer at a Florida motel, authorities said Wednesday. Brianna Alvelo, 22, had delivered pizza to the Riviera Motel in Kissimmee, located south of Orlando, on Sunday, the Osceola County Sheriff's Office said. The victim paid for the $33.10 order and gave Alvelo a $2 tip, according to court documents. When describing the incident to investigators, the victim said the delivery worker "rolled her eyes and walked away without saying anything" after getting the tip. But later, Alvelo came back armed with a pocket knife and with an unknown male suspect, who was armed with a gun, according to the court documents. Alvelo and the man forced their way into the room, where the victim, her boyfriend and her 5-year-old daughter were. The unknown male allegedly commanded the victim's boyfriend to go into the bathroom, and held him there at gunpoint. While the men were in the bathroom, Alvelo allegedly stabbed the victim 14 times. The victim had stab wounds to the chest, arms, leg and abdomen, and was taken to a local hospital, where she had surgery for a ruptured lung. While there, the victim learned she was a few weeks pregnant, the court documents say. She's currently in stable condition. Alvelo was taken into custody Monday and booked into the Osceola County Jail. She faces charges of home invasion with a firearm, attempted murder, kidnapping and aggravated assault. A bond is currently set for $55,000, according to online inmate records. A spokesperson for the pizza restaurant told CBS News affiliate WKMG that the owner and his team were fully cooperating with authorities. "The safety and well-being of customers and team members are always our top priority, and we are taking this incident very seriously," the spokesperson said. The armed male suspect who was at the motel has not yet been identified. Florida Aliza Chasan is a Digital Content Producer for "60 Minutes" and CBSNews.com.

‘Twas the day before Christmas, And it’s time for Mawer, To reflect on the past year: 2024. Investors kept pondering: When will the ball drop? Isn’t recession coming? Two years and no plop. Most central banks eased rates, As Inflation had dwindled, Investors celebrated, Markets rekindled. But Japan was different, And made a small raise, A hike long considered, A move met with praise. And the bears took their leave, Their growls turned to sighs, AI bulls roamed the market, With laser-like eyes. But the markets were puzzling. Is the trend too soon? The infrastructure’s not there To support such a boon? And then came the third quarter, Returns broadened out, Technology stocks lagged, They better not pout! Great companies are still there, Let us not ignore The “S&P 493,” Which is ripe to explore. “Anything but China” — for much of the year, Investors looked elsewhere, Too much risk and some fear. Now there’s massive stimulus, And some wondered how Will the dragon take flight? Or falter somehow? Switching gears to fixed income, Credit spreads so tight, Risk seemed to be forgotten, Like a dream in the night. And the borrowers did thrive, A festive parade, The lenders found solace, In risks underplayed. And though high yield is tempting, We truly avow, The impact could be harmful, The time is not now. ‘Twas the year of elections, Billions went to vote, Seventy-two countries, To find an antidote. Trump elected president, So buyer beware, Tariff Man’s coming! Canada: “Not fair!” Higher tariffs, lower taxes, Deregulation too, All of this expected, In the U.S. queue. But savvy investors, Need not nervously squirm. The true impact of elections On markets short term. Swift-e-nomics was poppin’, Local shops did glory, Despite high ticket prices, ‘Twas a Love Story. And Gen Alpha’s new language, Created great shocks, RIZZ, Bet, Sus, Skibidi, No more “no show” socks. Still, we try to be direct, No jargon to confuse, We keep being boring, Fundamentals our muse. Our horizon is long term, And while uncertainty abounds, Diversification’s a must, To sleep well and sound. So as we come to the end, With caution and cheer, We look ever onward, To a hopeful new year. From all of us at Mawer, We wish you great cheer, Peace, happiness, joy, and A profitable new year.
