Trump Says He'll ‘Probably' Extend TikTok Sale Deadline This Week
President Donald Trump on Tuesday suggested he would 'probably' extend a deadline for ByteDance, TikTok's China-based owners, to divest the social media app before Thursday, marking what would be his third delay after an earlier deal fell through. An order to keep TikTok operational in the U.S. for another 75 days was signed by Trump in April. Trump told reporters on Air Force One he would 'probably' extend a June 19 deadline for ByteDance to divest from TikTok or sell its assets to an American firm, adding, 'Probably have to get China approval, but I think we'll get it.' Another extension would be Trump's third delaying a forced sale or divestment of TikTok, following earlier orders pushing back the deadline on Jan. 20 and April 4, when a deal was reportedly in place for TikTok's operations to be spun off into a new U.S.-based company before Trump's 'Liberation Day' tariffs derailed the talks. Trump told NBC News last month he would 'like to see [a deal] done' for TikTok, adding he had a 'little sweet spot in my heart' for the social media platform and he would be 'willing to give it [the deadline] an extension' if needed. How long Trump would delay TikTok's deadline. Both extensions in January and April stalled a ban on TikTok by 75 days. Several companies have emerged as potential suitors for TikTok's assets, including Amazon, Oracle and Microsoft. Amazon's bid for TikTok would include the entire company, unnamed people familiar with the offer told the New York Times, though some parties involved in the talks 'do not appear to be taking Amazon's bid seriously.' AppLovin reportedly made an offer for TikTok and spoke with billionaire Steve Wynn about backing the deal, after the company told the Trump administration it could address national security concerns about the app if it held ownership. The White House previously spoke with Oracle about a deal that would give the company oversight of TikTok's U.S. data, Politico reported. Trump has also named Microsoft as a possible buyer while saying he hoped there would be a 'bidding war' for TikTok. Legislation requiring TikTok to sell itself to an American company or be banned in the U.S. was signed under President Joe Biden last year. That law followed growing bipartisan national security concerns about the app in recent years, after reports claimed China relied on TikTok's U.S. data to spy on Americans. Forbes previously reported the app spied on journalists, mishandled advertiser data and stored financial data of some creators in China, though ByteDance has denied claims user privacy was compromised. Trump issued an executive order in January shortly after he took office, though the app briefly went dark for U.S. users.

Gold is near an all-time high—here's how much a Costco bar bought a year ago is worth today
Costco's gold bars are worth a lot more than they were a year ago — and demand is soaring. The bars have been a steady draw since Costco began selling them in 2023, and a sharp rise in spot gold prices seems to have boosted their appeal. In May, the retailer tightened purchase restrictions, limiting members to one transaction, capped at a maximum of two bars, per day. As of Tuesday morning, gold traded around $3,390 per ounce — near a recent record high and roughly 45% higher than it was at this time last year. Historically, investors tend to flock to gold during periods of geopolitical instability, inflation and concern over the strength of the U.S. dollar. Here's how much more a 1-ounce gold bar purchased at Costco in June 2024 could be worth today, based on the listed purchase price and Tuesday's opening spot price. If you bought gold from Costco a year ago, you may be considering selling at a profit. But offloading a gold bar isn't as simple as checking the spot price and pocketing the difference. The spot price offers a benchmark for negotiating prices, but sellers typically receive about 5% to 10% less, depending on where and how they sell, says Jon Ulin, a certified financial planner based in Boca Raton, bullion dealers typically offer in-person evaluations and immediate payment, and may pay 1% to 5% below the spot price for a standard 1-ounce gold bar — often more than pawn shops, The Wall Street Journal reported on April 19, 2024. Online buyers may advertise competitive rates, often with the added convenience of insured shipping. In either case, vetting potential buyers on platforms like Yelp, Google or the Better Business Bureau can help you avoid lowball offers, hidden fees or scams. "I would avoid private buyers or marketplaces like eBay or Facebook Marketplace," says Ulin. "You're dealing with a high-value item and there's a risk of encountering less-than-reputable individuals." Any profits you make from selling gold can be taxed at a higher rate than other investments, such as stocks or bonds. The IRS generally classifies physical gold — such as bars, coins or jewelry — as a collectible for tax purposes, Troy Lewis, a certified public accountant and professor of accounting and tax at Brigham Young University, told CNBC on April 30. The "collectible" classification means that federal long-term capital gains on gold can be taxed at a rate of up to 28%, compared to a maximum of 20% for stocks or real estate. If the gold is sold within one year, any profit is taxed as ordinary income, which could mean an even higher rate, depending on the seller's tax bracket. By selling gold, you might unexpectedly "be adding up the tax bill you pay to Uncle Sam," says Bill Shafransky, a New Canaan, Connecticut-based financial advisor.

At Home Files for Bankruptcy, Will Close 26 Stores Nationwide by Fall
Source: UCG / Getty Home décor and furniture retailer At Home has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and plans to shut down 26 of its 'underperforming' locations across the country by September 30, 2025. The Texas-based chain, headquartered in Coppell, cited ongoing financial strain from high interest rates, persistent inflation, and increased tariff-related costs as reasons for the filing, according to court documents submitted Monday, June 16. These economic pressures have forced the company to reevaluate its store portfolio and overall strategy. Over the past year, At Home had already shuttered six locations. The latest wave of closures spans from California and New York to Florida and Montana, affecting communities in both major metro areas and smaller markets. This bankruptcy comes during a tough retail year, as chains like Big Lots, Joann Fabrics, Macy's, JCPenney, and Party City have also downsized or filed for protection amid similar economic headwinds. In the bankruptcy filing, At Home acknowledged that many of its stores have been operating below expectations, especially given the high costs of maintaining brick-and-mortar spaces. As part of the restructuring, ownership will transfer to a group of hedge funds and investment firms based in New York City and San Francisco. 6135 Junction Boulevard in Rego Park, New York 300 Baychester Ave. in Bronx, New York 750 Newhall Drive in San Jose, California 2505 El Camino Real in Tustin, California 14585 Biscayne Boulevard in North Miami, Florida 2200 Harbor Boulevard in Costa Mesa, California 3795 E.
