Trader Joe's customers in 12 states warned about Gerolsteiner sparkling water bottles

CBS News15-03-2025
Trader Joe's is cautioning customers that some glass bottles of Gerolsteiner sparkling water sold in 12 states could be cracked or damaged. About 61,500 bottles of the product are being recalled because they pose a potential laceration hazard, according to a notice posted Thursday by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The recalled bottles were sold from Dec. 27, 2024 to Jan. 28, 2025 in the following states: Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas, the retailer and federal agency separately said.
Manufactured in Germany, the recalled water sold for about $3.00 a bottle, and came in a large 750-milliliter glass bottle sold individually or in cases containing 15 bottles, according to the CPSC.
There have been no reports of injury or damaged bottles.
Trader Joe's was informed of the potential problem by its supplier of Gerolsteiner Sparking Natural Mineral Water, the retailer said in a product safety announcement posted on its site Wednesday. Trader Joe's said the issue was identified by research related to bottle breakage during production and potentially affects 1% of bottles containing either of the following lot code numbers:
2024/28/11 24 2027/19/12
2024/271/11 24 2027/18/12
The CPSC's recall notice, however, listed the lot numbers slightly differently, giving the following two lot numbers:
11/28/2024 L
11/27/2024 L
"If you have bottles with either lot code, please do not use them. We urge you to dispose of them carefully and go to any Trader Joe's for a full refund," Trader Joe's stated.
The CPSC notice, however, stated that while no proof of purchase would be needed, customers would have to return the bottles from the affected lots to the store where they were purchased to get a refund in the form of cash or credit.
Gerolsteiner can be reached at 800-777-0633 from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, by email at customerservice@consup.us, online at https://www.gerolsteiner.de/en/recall or buy going to www.gerolsteiner.de/en/ and clicking on "Recalls" at the bottom of the page, the CPSC said.

Altcoin Season Hope Dim as Traders Unwind Bullish Bets: Crypto Daybook Americas

By Omkar Godbole (All times ET unless indicated otherwise) Bitcoin's (BTC) consolidation continues to take the wind out of the bull run in the broader market that had raised hopes for the so-called alt season marked by prolonged outperformance of alternative cryptocurrencies. Over the past 24 hours, major altcoins have experienced a significant decline, led by a double-digit drop in the payments-focused XRP and an 8% slide in SOL. The CoinDesk 80 Index, which tracks the performance of altcoins, has dropped over 7% while the CoinDesk 20 Index, which is dominated by bitcoin and ether, has declined by 4%. "The crypto market took a nosedive, losing almost 4% of its market cap over the last 24 hours. Without bitcoin's growth, altcoins, which had been driving the market upwards in previous days, found themselves on sale. Forty-eight of the top 100 altcoins are losing double-digit rates over 24 hours, while only three are growing," Alex Kuptsikevich, chief market analyst at FxPro, said in an email. Amid all this, social media is abuzz with posts about some $2 billion worth of ether waiting to be unstaked, with over 475 Ethereum validators awaiting exit. (check chart of the day section). Some are drawing parallels with January 2024, when large unstaking marked a temporary price top. The latest surge in unstaking appears to be driven by the soaring ether borrowing rates on decentralized platforms like Aave, which have diminished the appeal of looping strategies designed to boost ether staking yields. Typically, these strategies involve users depositing liquidity staking (LST) or liquid restaking tokens (LRT) as collateral on platforms like AAVE and borrow ETH. The borrowed ETH is again converted to LRT and LSTs and redeposited, creating a loop. The strategy works when staking yields are greater than borrowing costs. However, with borrowing costs on the rise, the loop is likely being reversed, leading traders to rush to repay loans, exit LST/LRT, and reclaim ETH. "The real trigger is soaring ETH borrowing rates since July 16 (peaking at 18%). This forced mass unwinding of ETH leverage loops on Aave, as negative yield spreads crushed profitability. Traders rushed to repay loans, exit LST/LRT positions, and reclaim ETH — causing depegs and queue congestion," pseudonymous observer Degen Station noted on X. It added that arbitrageurs are now scooping up LSTs and LRTs at a discount to redeem them for ether, worsening the issue, while demand for new staking remains strong. To cut to the chase, the large queue for unstaking is not necessarily a bearish signal. In other key news, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino said that the company is planning to re-enter the U.S. with stablecoin offerings for payments, interbank settlements, and trading. In traditional markets, major currencies traded flat against the U.S. dollar, except for the risk-sensitive AUD/USD pair, which crossed above resistance at 0.66. Traders were closely watching for signs of sustainability as failure could be a harbinger of broad-based risk aversion. Stay Alert!

The token jumped 21% in 24 hours, extending a multiday rally and overtaking its previous all-time high of $0.042 from January. South Korean traders are driving momentum, with 38% of PENGU volume now in KRW pairs, up from 32% earlier this month, a significant concentration of localized demand. Open interest in PENGU futures is at a record high, indicative of expectations of further volatility. The Pudgy Penguins NFT floor price has almost doubled to 16.2 ETH, reinforcing the connection between token price and NFT ecosystem strength. PENGU's rally comes amid weak sentiment around PUMP following its underwhelming post-ICO performance, pushing attention and liquidity toward other Solana memecoins. The token is increasingly being viewed as a proxy for meme market sentiment, combining high liquidity, exchange access, cultural mindshare and ties to a top-tier NFT IP. Derivatives Positioning Open interest in BTC, ETH, XRP and SOL offshore perpetual has declined along with prices in the past 24 hours. Yet, funding rates hold positive. This combination indicates that the market swoon is predominantly driven by the unwinding of bullish bets rather than outright shorts. On the CME, the annualized three-month basis in BTC futures has ticked up to nearly 9%, the highest since May. However, open interest remains locked in familiar ranges. ETH CME futures open interest has pulled back slightly from the record 2.08 billion ETH to 1.87 billion ETH. Basis, meanwhile, has topped 10% for the first time since the end of May, indicating a bullish sentiment. On Deribit, the put bias in short-dated BTC risk reversals has strengthened, indicating fears of deeper price pull back. ETH options continue to show a bullish call bias across all tenors. Surprisingly, XRP risk reversals remain bullish despite the sharp price drop in the past 24 hours.
