What's that under construction on West Mason Street in Green Bay?
The Green Bay City Council in May 2024 approved a conditional use permit to convert the site into a convenience store. The popular, La Crosse-based convenience store chain subsequently in August 2024 paid $1.6 million for 2.8 acres in the 1000 block of West Mason Street.
The site's three former commercial buildings were demolished last year. Green Bay property records indicate the city on May 14 issued a building permit for the new Kwik Trip with an estimated project cost of $1.5 million.
Kwik Trip expects to complete construction this fall and set a tentative opening date of Oct. 24.
This is tentative, though, dependent on weather and construction schedules.
More Kwik Trip: What's happening at the former Citgo, Burger King site in Suamico?
The new store will be about 9,000 square feet and customers can access it from entrances on West Mason Street and Gross Avenue. The company originally requested three entrances, but removed the Gross Court entrance after neighbors expressed concerns about it.
Kwik Trip plans to install extensive landscaping on the site, including stormwater management facilities.
It does not appear site plans include a car wash at this time.
The new Kwik Trip at 1027 W. Mason St. will be the popular convenience store chain's 24th location in Brown County.
The chain's 23rd location in the region is set to open this summer at 1535 Sunset Beach Road, in Suamico.

3 principles to invest by, whatever comes next
I recently opened a second-quarter investment account statement, not to euphoria—but relief. Let's not forget, US equities flirted with a bear market earlier this year. There were concerns that China's DeepSeek artificial intelligence would bring down US technology titans. There were the tariffs. Yet, here we sit in the third quarter of 2025 with the Morningstar US Market Index up nearly 8% for the year and the Morningstar US Core Bond Index having returned more than 3%. Principle 1: Where the market goes, nobody knows Coming into the year, how many pundits talked about AI out of China challenging US tech stocks? Did anyone expect tariffs to be such a factor? Though 2025 has had its plot twists, changes in market direction are hardly unusual. Consider thatstocks came into summer 2024 on a tear, beforesentiment turned. A series of releases—jobs, inflation, and earnings—compounded fears of a narrow and pricey market. Somehow, both an unexpected interest rate hike by the Bank of Japan and an expected rate cut by the Fed triggered selloffs. But markets recovered. Election results in November sparked a powerful rally. So, w here we go from here is anyone's guess. But I'll cite a story about how dead investors outperform living ones because they don't trade. Buy-and-hold has been a great strategy for long-term investors. Principle 2: Global investing can pay off Some think you don't need to own anything other than US equities. But I'llnote that the Morningstar Global Markets ex-US Index has trounced its US equivalent so far in 2025. What's behind the turnaround? The dollar weakening against many other currencies is part of the story. But markets in many regions—Europe, Latin America, and India—have roared to life this year. To me, global investing is about casting the net as widely as possible. So, just as some argue that US-based multinationals provide American investors with global exposure, you could also argue that they're not fully exposed to the US, from a revenue perspective, with a purely domestic portfolio. Principle 3: Bonds aren't broken The equity market's extreme volatility in 2025 makes bonds look like steady-Eddies. While US stocks were in free fall from late February through early April, the Morningstar US Core Bond Index gained 1.3%. Bonds diversified equities, serving as portfolio ballast. Bonds face a lot of 'headline risk.' There are debt and deficit concerns. And the shadow of 2022's ' worst bond market ever ' lingers. While the risks are undeniable, fixed income is also the victim of fearmongering. Not only have bonds diversified stocks, they're also providing above-inflation income streams. Thanks to the painful interest rate hikes of 2022-23, yields on fixed income are at levels not seen since the mid-2000s. The road ahead We're likely to see more twists before 2025 is out. Short-term asset-price fluctuations are driven by a complex interplay of variables—macro and micro, fundamental and technical. Longer term, valuation can be a useful guide. According to my Morningstar Equity Research colleagues, the US stock market looked a bit pricey coming into the second half of 2025—not in dangerous bubble territory, but 'trading at a slight premium.' The bargains cluster on the value side of the market and in smaller-cap stocks. ____

Walmart's Revenue Rises, Profit Growth Falls Short of Expectations
Walmart, a bellwether of consumer confidence, saw its revenue increase as the United States began to roll out a new, wide-ranging tariff program. Nevertheless, profit growth was lower than expected. On Aug. 21, the Bentonville, Arkansas-based retail giant released its second-quarter earnings report. It indicated that the company's total revenues increased by about 4.8 percent, to $177.4 billion, in the three-month period that ended on July 31. Net sales rose by a similar percentage, to $120.9 billion.

FAW, China's oldest carmaker, eyes 10% of Leapmotor to boost stake in EV surge
FAW Group, mainland China's oldest carmaker, plans to acquire a 10 per cent stake in Stellantis-backed electric vehicle (EV) maker Leapmotor, as the state-owned automotive giant looks to enhance its competitiveness in the segment, according to Cailian, a Shanghai-based financial news outlet. The investment would pave the way for the two companies to jointly develop new EV models, fine-tune supply-chain management and bolster overseas expansion, the report said.

Photo: Xinhua> The deal would make FAW China's first state-owned carmaker to own a stake in an EV start-up. "State-owned automotive giants lag behind their privately owned rivals in terms of electrification and new EV model development," said Chen Jinzhu, CEO of consultancy Shanghai Mingliang Auto Service. "The equity investment is likely to spawn imitators as more state-owned companies look to enlist emerging EV companies to improve their technology and production efficiency." In July, deliveries of EVs - pure electric and plug-in hybrid cars - jumped 12 per cent to 987,000 units on the mainland, accounting for 54 per cent of overall car sales, according to the China Passenger Car Association. FAW, the Chinese partner of Volkswagen and Toyota, delivered 28,500 EVs, 11.3 per cent of its total sales last month. In March, FAW and Leapmotor signed a preliminary pact to jointly develop EVs and collaborate on supply-chain procurements. Leapmotor, founded in 2015 by Zhu Jiangming, a veteran electronics engineer who also co-founded surveillance giant Dahua, is one of the big winners in the mainland's EV industry this year. Last month, the company delivered 50,129 vehicles for its third straight monthly sales record. In the first seven months of 2025, it sold a total 271,793 vehicles, up 150 per cent year on year. In October 2023, Leapmotor received a US$1.6 billion investment from Stellantis, formerly Fiat Chrysler, giving the European carmaker a 20 per cent stake in the Chinese EV start-up. Zhu, who is also the CEO of Leapmotor, said in late July that the company's goal was to sell 4 million units a year, without elaborating on the time frame. The company is known for its smart EVs priced at around 100,000 yuan (US$13,923), attracting thousands of young motorists willing to embrace new self-driving and in-car entertainment technologies. FAW, China's oldest carmaker and once a symbol of the Communist Party's manufacturing might, is actively promoting green and intelligence-based development of the vehicle industry, its chairman Qiu Xiandong said in May 2024. Its iconic Hongqi, or Red Flag, car was once viewed as a symbol of the mainland's automotive sector. Mao Zedong, one of the key founders of the People's Republic, oversaw the establishment of the firm in 1953 with the help of the former Soviet Union. Former president Jiang Zemin spent six years working for FAW between 1956 and 1962, rising from an engineer to chief manager of the group's power unit.
