HowBottle Debuts in the U.S. with Tech-Enabled Essentials - No Green Premium Required
Alpine, New Jersey--(Newsfile Corp. - May 21, 2025) - HowBottle, a next-generation sustainable lifestyle brand, officially launched in the U.S. this month. HowBottle's debut collection features everyday essentials made entirely from recycled plastic bottles and discarded fishing nets—fully traceable to the source and designed to be good for the planet without adding a 'green premium.'

In a consumer landscape dominated by inflation, HowBottle aims for purpose, technology, and price accessibility to co-exist.
Founded by two moms and a dog enthusiast, HowBottle emerged from the beach, not from a boardroom. While collecting plastic waste during a coastal cleanup, the trio came up with the aim for helping the global crisis—one bottle at a time.
That question became a bigger mission: to design sustainable, accessible daily essentials without compromising on function, comfort, or cost.
'We didn't want to build a brand that just looks sustainable,' says co-founder Supa. 'We wanted to build one that proves it—without making customers pay more for doing the right thing.'

To keep prices competitive while staying radically sustainable, HowBottle leaned into innovation. The company's closed-loop system converts post-consumer plastic into high-performance yarn using a vertically integrated process. All products meet GRS and OEKO-TEX safety standards and are BPA <1ppm and PFC-free—ensuring both quality and peace of mind.
What really sets HowBottle apart is traceability, backed by tech. As one of the first lifestyle brands to embed Dow's DNA Marker technology in its recycled materials, HowBottle gives each product an invisible, verifiable signature—auditable by TÜV-certified labs. No vague claims. No greenwashing.
HowBottle's debut line features bags, hats, sunglasses, and daily essentials—made for people who want to live well without compromising the planet or financial cost.
Already collaborating with brands, HowBottle is aiming to help bring real sustainability into the mainstream—not as a trend, but as a tangible, traceable reality.
Since its inception, HowBottle has already diverted over 1.4 million plastic bottles and 368,000 square feet of fishing nets from oceans and landfills. That number is only growing.
About HowBottle
HowBottle is a sustainability-driven lifestyle brand turning post-consumer waste into modern essentials through science-backed and traceable innovation.
HowBottle is now available at howbottle.co, inviting conscious consumers to rethink what everyday essentials should look like.

S&P 500 Gains and Losses Today: Intel Stock Retreats; Analog Devices Jumps After Strong Earnings
Key Takeaways The S&P 500 declined 0.2% on Wednesday, Aug. 20, 2025, as tech stocks slid and minutes from the latest Federal Reserve meeting highlighted policymakers' concerns about tariffs and inflation. Intel stock gave back some of its recent gains as discussions about the U.S. government possibly acquiring an equity stake remained in focus. Analog Devices posted better-than-expected quarterly results, and shares of the chipmaker pushed higher. Major U.S. equities indexes were mixed on Wednesday as tech stocks slid and minutes from the latest Federal Reserve meeting highlighted policymakers' concerns about tariffs and inflation. The S&P 500 lost 0.2% Wednesday, marking the fourth straight losing session for the benchmark index. The tech-heavy Nasdaq fell 0.7%, while the Dow ended with a gain of less than 0.1%. Intel (INTC) stock gave back some of its recent gains, dropping 7% to log the S&P 500's weakest performance on Wednesday as discussions about the U.S. government possibly acquiring an equity stake remained in focus. The drop reversed the stock's jump yesterday after the announcement of a major investment by Japanese investment firm SoftBank (SFTBY). Shares of Micron Technology (MU) and other chipmakers with CHIPS Act grants also fell, following reports the Trump administration could look to strike similar deals with them as the one it's weighing with Intel. Micron shares lost 4%. Shares of Target (TGT) slipped 6.3% after the retailer said that CEO Brian Cornell would step down. Target tapped Michael Fiddelke—its current chief operating officer and a company veteran who has played a key role in plans to reshape operations—to take over the CEO role effective early next year. The announcement of the leadership change came as Target reported a decline in sales, though they topped analysts' expectations, and profits that matched estimates. Analog Devices (ADI) shares avoided the downward pressure on the broader semiconductor industry, surging 6.3% to notch the S&P 500's strongest daily gain. The manufacturer of sensor and power management chips topped quarterly earnings estimates, and provided a better-than-expected outlook. The company highlighted resilient demand trends despite trade-related uncertainty. Medtronic (MDT) shares added 3.7% after the medical device maker announced that it would add two new members to its board of directors following the accumulation of a significant position by activist investor Elliott Management. UBS and Wells Fargo lifted their price targets on Medtronic stock following the news. Shares of agribusiness and food products giant Bunge (BG) gained 3.1% as JPMorgan kicked off coverage of the stock with an "overweight" rating. Analysts indicated that the company could be set to benefit from policies related to biofuels in the U.S. potentially boosting demand for soybean oil. The firm also suggested efficiencies stemming from the acquisition of Netherlands-based Viterra could help drive Bunge's earnings growth.

AI and tech stocks slide as summer rally peters out
Tech stocks were under pressure this week as Wall Street's AI enthusiasm slowed and investors adjusted portfolios after a strong summer rally. The Nasdaq Composite fell 0.67% on Wednesday after sliding 1.46% on Tuesday. The tech-heavy index was on track to snap back-to-back weeks of gains. Meanwhile, the broader S&P 500 fell 0.24% and posted its fourth day of losses in a row. The Dow hovered around the flatline. Tech stocks had steadily rallied in recent months, lifting the S&P 500 and Nasdaq to a streak of record highs. Now Wall Street is taking a breather while optimism about the AI boom is facing some friction. Palantir (PLTR), a star of the AI trade, fell 1.1% on Wednesday after falling 9.35% on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Nvidia (NVDA) edged lower by 0.14% on Wednesday after sliding 3.5% on Tuesday. 'Investors rotated out of high-momentum tech stocks, reflecting renewed jitters over the sustainability of the AI trade,' Ulrike Hoffmann-Buchardi, head of global equities at UBS, said in a note. Investors are also in wait-and-see mode ahead of a critical day for markets on Friday when Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is set to deliver remarks at the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium. 'It's just a pause that may refresh as investors retrench and rethink how they want to position their tech dollars,' Rob Haworth, senior investment strategy director at US Bank Asset Management Group, told CNN. Powell's closely watched speech on Friday could provide signals about the Fed's potential rate-cutting path and comes at a key inflection points for markets after past months' ascent to record highs. AI jitters test Wall Street Excitement about AI propelled markets higher in recent months, boosted by robust corporate earnings and enormous spending by companies like Meta and Microsoft. But Wall Street's eagerness was tested this week after Sam Altman, chief executive at OpenAI, said he thinks the market might be in a bubble. 'Are we in a phase where investors as a whole are overexcited about AI? My opinion is yes,' Altman told reporters last week, according to The Verge. The OpenAI chief also said he thinks AI will provide value for the economy. 'Is AI the most important thing to happen in a very long time? My opinion is also yes,' he said. Also, researchers at MIT on Monday published a report detailing how the majority of companies testing new generative AI tools are seeing zero returns. While there was not an explicit catalyst for the decline of tech and AI stocks decline this week, investors said Altman's comments and the MIT report could be contributing to negative momentum. AI chip and semiconductor companies Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Marvell Technology (MRVL) were each down almost 7% this week. 'Altman's comments spooked some people when he talked about the AI bubble,' Dan Ives, head of global technology research at Wedbush Securities, told CNN. 'Tech stocks have had a massive run, so I think it's just typical that investors are starting to take some chips off the table going into Labor Day,' Ives said. 'But I believe it's going to be short lived.' Big Tech takes a breather Each of the Magnificent Seven tech stocks — Apple (AAPL), Alphabet (GOOGL), Amazon (AMZN), Meta (META), Microsoft (MSFT), Nvidia (NVDA) and Tesla (TSLA) — fell on both Tuesday and Wednesday, dragging down the broader market. As of Tuesday, they made up 33.5% of the S&P 500's total market value, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices, reflecting their outsized influence on the index's performance. 'Stocks have been on an absolute tear. Valuations have sprinted up,' said Ross Mayfield, an investment strategist at Baird. 'The fundamentals are good but not keeping pace with the price action.' 'I think along the way we'll see pockets of profit taking, even if it doesn't mark the end of the bull market in general,' Mayfield said. While tech dragged on the market, about 70% of stocks in the S&P 500 had closed higher on Tuesday, UBS' Hoffmann-Buchardi said. Sectors that outperformed included consumer staples, utilities and real estate. It's a sign that investors are shifting out of Big Tech and AI-related trades and toward more defensive stocks as they reassess the markets. Nvidia as of Monday had surged 93% since a low point in early April. 'We've been expecting this type of a pullback,' said Jay Hatfield, chief executive at Infrastructure Capital Advisors, who said he has taken down his exposure to tech in recent months. It's also the start of a historically weak season for stocks, Hatfield said. 'We're neutral on the market right now, but still really bullish for year end.' Palantir is still up 106% this year. But shares in Palantir are down six days in a row and had dropped as much as 9.8% on Wednesday before paring losses, reflecting the volatility in AI stocks. 'Now we're getting the downward momentum,' Hatfield said. 'Palantir is like the poster child for excessive valuation, and those investors are learning that the momentum works in both directions.'
