*Popular brand gets crucial delisting warning from NASDAQ*

The holiday shopping season is almost fully upon us, but it doesn't feel like it in many corners of the retail economy. Many parts of the market seem to have hit a stalemate, as auto, housing, tech, and some parts of retail wind back the incredible gains seen thanks to lower interest rates and increased spending behavior seen in the earlier 2020s. Related: Ulta has this one key advantage over other beauty retailers But one growing corner of the market is the beauty industry, which in 2018 was valued at $508 billion. Now, in 2023, the industry is estimated at $579 billion, up 14% in just five years. As other parts of the economy either stagnate or shrink, beauty continues to grow at a steady pace. And part of its secret for success is its increasing independence from brick-and-mortar stores and steady grasp on the online community. Largely propelled by social media trends and other virtual forms of entertainment, beauty brands hardly need a lot of stores to fuel sales and grow an audience. And with so many brands selling aspirational luxury, beauty has got a long runway. "Overall, beauty is expected to be characterized by 'premiumization,' with the premium-beauty tier projected to grow at an annual rate of 8% (compared with 5% in mass beauty) between 2022 and 2027, as consumers trade up and increase their spending, especially in fragrance and makeup," a recent McKinsey study found. This might mean that, regardless of how much a customer has got to spend, he or she is probably more likely to opt for the splurge beauty purchase, particularly if it has a large following online. One beauty brand gets a key warning This can also mean, though, that the industry is increasingly competitive, and brands must grapple even harder to retain top status among choosy consumers. After all, if you're going to invest $40 or more on a foundation, perfume, or lipstick, you'd want to be sure it works and has tons of positive reviews on it. Negative press, reviews, or simply a lapse in consumer attention can leave your brand irrelevant and struggling to regain attention in an increasingly noisy environment. Such has been the case with Waldencast WALD, owner of Obagi and Milk Makeup. Delilah Cordoba, 17, left, and Caroline Garcia, 17, both students at Bryant High School, shop in the Sephora section at a J.C. Penney store on Aug. 3, in New York. (Photo by Stephen Hilger/Bloomberg via Getty Images) Bloomberg/Getty Images Milk Makeup, which is carried by large retailers like LVMH LVMHF -owned Sephora, bills itself as a wellness and beauty brand that caters to an audience more concerned about ingredients and product cleanliness. The company, which was founded by L’OrΓ©al executives Michel Brousset and Hind Sebti in 2020, went public in 2022 via a SPAC, and has been largely met with positive reception. One of its best-selling products on Sephora, the Hydro Grip Hydrating Makeup Primer, has over 6,000 reviews and is billed on the site as a "community favorite." But in November the company indicated it had received a warning from NASDAQ that it was in danger of being delisted as it has not been giving "timely filing of periodic reports with the Securities Exchange Commission." "The receipt of the Notice does not affect the Company’s business, operations or reporting requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission," a 6-K reads via the SEC. Waldencast, for its part, says it is working to finalize its full-year report, which ended in December 2022, "as soon as practicable." Waldencast stock is down nearly 13% year-to-date.

*Institutional misogyny is thriving at crucial government bank regulator*

This probably wasn't what President Roosevelt had in mind when he signed the Banking Act of 1933 into law, creating the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The FDIC was created in the middle of the Great Depression to regulate banks and help ensure consumer confidence at a time when more than one-third of banks failed and bank runs were common. Related: Another legacy automaker has a powerful response to UAW auto union threat Now, the FDIC insures deposits in member banks up to $250,000. But there is more going on beneath the surface of the FDIC, as resignations have risen amid a culture of misogyny and sexual harassment, according to a report from the Wall Street Journal. The Journal detailed the experiences of multiple women who experienced sexual harassment at the hands of male superiors, some of whom went on to work for the agency for years even after complaints were made to higher ups. In addition to outright harassment, β€” a male supervisor is accused of asking the colleague of a female trainee "about her sex life, including asking who at the agency was sleeping with her" β€” FDIC supervisors excluded women by organizing golf outings and trips to the strip club for employees. The FDIC itself is an exclusive club to get into, as the agency hires fewer than 200 trainees per year, according to the Journal. It costs nearly $400,000 to train a commissioned officer over a four-year period, and since the agency also experiences unsustainable churn with less than half (48%) of the class of 2017 still working at the FDIC, its problems retaining talent amid a toxic work environment are costly. After 2020, the agency saw resignations of "Financial Institution Specialists" more than double to 54 in 2021 from 24. Resignations rose again in 2022 to 62. At the same time, "the FDIC may lose valuable knowledge and leadership skill sets upon the departure of experienced examiners, managers, and executives." the agency said in a February report, lamenting that 21% of its workforce was eligible to retire in 2022, with that number expected to climb to 38% by 2027. "The departure of FIS personnel impacts FDIC succession planning and management," the FDIC said. Thankfully, the FDIC is a unique government agency in that it isn't funded with public money. FDIC members pay insurance dues that fund the majority of the agency, so taxpayers aren't paying for the agency's misdeeds. In response to the Journal's article on Monday, the FDIC announced that it is hiring an "independent firm" to conduct a "top-to-bottom assessment" of its workplace culture, with Chairman Martin Gruenberg stating that harassment and discrimination are "completely unacceptable" at the agency.

*Supreme Court unveils new ethics code for justices*

TheStreet's J.D. Durkin brings the latest business headlines from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange as markets close for trading Monday, November 13. Full Video Transcript Below: J.D. DURKIN: I'm J.D. Durkin, reporting from the New York Stock Exchange. Stocks were mixed to close out today's session. The Dow closed up just over 50 points, the Nasdaq closed down fractionally, and the S&P also closed fractionally lower. This comes after stocks shrugged off concerns over the state of the U.S. economy after Moody’s Investor Service downgraded the U.S. credit rating to negative. Wall Street is looking ahead to October inflation data out Tuesday. This figure will help give investors a clearer picture of the Federal Reserve’s next move on interest rates. In other news, the Supreme Court of the United States has adopted what it is calling a Code of Conduct for Justices. The new 14-page policy includes five different canons, or pillars, of the new rules. The justices released a statement saying, "The undersigned justices are promulgating this Code of Conduct to set out succinctly and gather in one place the ethics rules and principles that guide the conduct of the members of the Court." It has been reported that some justices, most notably Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, have received luxury gifts and trips without reporting them on financial disclosures. While the new Code of Conduct officially puts pen to paper, the justices seemed to downplay its significance, saying that it "largely represents a codification of principles that we have long regarded as governing our conduct." That'll do it for your daily briefing. From the New York Stock Exchange, I’m J.D. Durkin with TheStreet.
