Restaurant Road Trip: Café Rosé
'Fourteen years ago, we started The Cupcakerie downtown,' said owner Anna Carrier. 'I knew this location my whole life and the people who owned it were ready to retire, so I approached them and said I'd like to move my business here and expand it.'
Café Rosé opened in early 2024 with a soup, salad and sandwich concept, but it quickly expanded to include wine, beer, burgers and chicken salad sandwiches. It continues to offer wines and gift baskets, just as Slight Indulgence did.
Restaurant Road Trip: Neighborhood Kombuchery
'One of our most popular items is our BLT,' said Carrier. 'It has a peppadew aioli on it and people love that. Our strawberry almond goat cheese salad is very popular as well as our harvest salad that has dried cranberries and walnuts on it. Our chef's Cubano sandwich is fantastic. I think it would rival most Cubanos on the East Coast.'
Carrier described the aesthetic as having a 'garden vibe.' It's also painted ever-so-slightly pink on the interior, giving the feeling of being inside a wine bottle.
'We offer brunch all day. That's something a little different for Morgantown. And we also offer a frozen rose,' said Carrier. 'We add our own house purees to all of the flavor—mango, strawberry (and others) and it has rose wine in it.'
The Morgantown native said that her favorite part of owning the restaurant is the community that is forming around it.
'One of my favorite things is at the end of the night when I see three tables come together and none of them knew they were going to be here and everyone gets to kind of catch up,' said Carrier. 'It's kind of cool to have that vibe.'
You can find Café Rosé at 3200 Collins Ferry Road in Morgantown.

The exact percentage of the minority stake will be determined after technical and financial adjustments at the closing stage, it added. Their binding offer has been accepted and the purchase process is expected to take six months to a year.

Investors looking beyond the U.S. see opportunities in one small pocket of Europe
European markets have seen a resurgence this year, with multiple regional indexes outperforming their Wall Street rivals. Amid a broad push to diversify portfolios away from the U.S., some traders see an "unmatched advantage" and "really good investment opportunities" in particular area of Europe. Earlier this year, volatility arising from U.S. President Donald Trump's unpredictable trade policies sparked widespread demand for assets outside of the United States . One of the beneficiaries of this movement was Europe , where investors saw a stable but undervalued market. But according to Frédérique Carrier, head of investment strategy for RBC Wealth Management in the British Isles and Asia, one pocket of the European market remains overlooked by international investors. "Most of our wealth clients who enquire about Europe have France and Germany in mind, and perhaps Italy and Spain, but few think of the Nordics where macroeconomic trends are encouraging," she said. Economic resilience The Nordics, nestled in the far north of Europe, have had a mixed bag this year when it comes to the performance of their publicly traded companies. Benchmark indexes in Norway and Finland, for example, have outperformed all three major Wall Street indexes, while those in Iceland and Denmark have recorded deep year-to-date losses. Much of the underperformance in Denmark is tied to the make-up of its benchmark OMX Copenhagen index. Pharmaceutical giants Novo Nordisk and Zealand Pharma have each shed around 48% so far this year, amid threats from Trump to slap tariffs of up to 250% on pharmaceutical goods. Disappointing clinical trial results , leadership changes and profit guidance cuts also weighed on Novo's share price. However, the Danish economy is renowned for its resilience, even if its biggest companies are under pressure, and that could benefit the country's equity market, Carrier told CNBC. "Denmark is widely seen as a resilient economy, thanks to its low level of indebtedness at the national level (debt to GDP a mere 28% while it enjoys a fiscal surplus of close to 4% of GDP), even as its pharmaceutical sector — which has largely driven growth in the past — is currently in the cross hairs of President Trump's new tariffs strategy," she said in an email. Sweden, she added, was benefiting from a "mild economic upswing," while Norway's central bank could soon start cutting interest rates to stimulate the country's economy. Markets are widely expecting Norges Bank to cut rates by 25 basis points at its next meeting in September, according to LSEG data. "Finland is the outlier, with a more subdued macroeconomic outlook than its peers," Carrier added. She noted that equity investors looking to allocate to European stocks should take "a highly selective approach to investment." "Our focus would be on high quality companies with a strong business model, a broad international revenue base and robust cash flow generation, an area where the Nordics are particularly well represented," she said. "Such quality does not necessarily come cheap and investors might want to wait for an opportunistic price correction before building positions." 'Unmatched advantage' The Nordic region is rich with opportunities in emerging industries, according to Tor Langøy, founder of London-based investment advisory BD Globe Capital Partners and Viking Digital Campus, a hydro-powered digital corporate campus on Norway's west coast. "The Nordic region is rapidly emerging as a strategic hub for AI and hyperscale data center investment, attracting unprecedented global capital," he told CNBC. Various high-profile companies have recently unveiled large-scale investments in the Nordics this year, many of which are for tech infrastructure. Brookfield Asset Management, which manages assets worth more than $1 trillion, announced in June it would allocate up to 95 billion Swedish krona ($10 billion) to support the development of AI infrastructure. Meanwhile, OpenAI announced at the end of July that it would spearhead a multibillion-dollar data center project in Norway that would deliver 100,000 Nvidia graphics processing units by the end of 2026. Langøy said that Norway in particular had an "unmatched advantage" when it comes to investment opportunities. "Norway offers a rare combination of attributes that few — if any — markets can match," he said. "[It boasts the] lowest electricity costs in Europe, powered by 100% renewable hydropower, accelerated grid connection timelines, enabling faster go-to-market, [and] supportive, pro–data center government policies that welcome strategic infrastructure investment." He argued that Norway will "continue to lead" thanks to its energy security, connectivity resilience and geopolitical stability. In the second quarter of this year, Swedish investment firm Investor AB saw a 6% return on its listed company holdings. Among those holdings are various Nordic firms, including telecom giant Ericsson, defense contractor Saab and home appliance manufacturer Electrolux. During the reporting period, AB Investor invested 1.2 billion Swedish kronor to increase its stake in Ericsson to 9.7%. "As the world leader in mobile network technology, Ericsson is well positioned to capitalize on its strong market positions and find new growth avenues over time," AB Investor's President and CEO Christian Cederholm, said in the firm's second-quarter earnings report. "While we operate in an unpredictable world, I remain confident in Investor's and our companies' ability to generate attractive long-term total returns." Cederholm later told CNBC that there were also opportunities in the Nordic region's private markets. "For the private assets we are looking for, i.e. high-quality companies with long track records of good, profitable growth, really there are very seldom times when you can make a bargain," he said. "So we're not bargain hunters, we're in this for the long term … on the positive side, I would say that between our focus markets, which are the Nordics and North America, there are a really good investment opportunities." — CNBC's Arjun Kharpal contributed to this report.

Some carriers are offering up to $1,000 on eligible trade-ins, which could net you a free iPhone 16 Pro. One important thing to keep in mind is that most trade-in deals from carriers require you to become a customer, and they often apply to the priciest plan options. Select retailers with trade-in programs could offer gift cards toward future purchases instead, so you don't necessarily have to be locked into a contract to take advantage of the savings you can get from parting with your old device. However, those offers may not provide as much of a deal as traditional trade-in offers. We first saw the new iPhone 16 models in the demo room at Apple headquarters in California.
