*Tiffany & Co. just announced an extremely limited, highly unusual collection*

When Audrey Hepburn ate a croissant in front of the store window in the opening scenes of the legendary 1961 film "Breakfast at Tiffany's," she envisioned the kind of aspirational glamour that the storied New York jeweler would give her.Related: Louis Vuitton released a seven-figure bag that you cannot buy However, Tiffany's new foray into pop culture involves something much different, and has the chance to attract new fans into the LVMH-owned LVMHF brand. In collaboration with American contemporary artist Daniel Arsham, the namesake jeweler is immortalizing the world of Pokémon in precious metals for a series of fun jewelry pieces. The collection features six iconic Pokémon images from the property's original lineup, including; Psychic-type Mew, skull-helmet wearing Cubone, the happy Jiggypuff, fire-type Charmander, the turtle-like Squirtle and the iconic electric mouse Pikachu. View the original article to see embedded media. Tiffany's is offering fans of said Pokémon to wear their favorite Pokemon next to their heart - either as a small oxidized sterling silver and diamond-accented pendant, or on station necklace with all six Pokémon. Fans of Pikachu, however, can also get a special pendant in two sizes finished in 18 karat yellow gold that comes in a special Tiffany blue Pokéball. View the original article to see embedded media. Daniel Arsham told Women's Wear Daily that the Pokémon collection represents his childhood merging with his present self. “My latest collaboration with Tiffany & Co. is a combination of pop culture, fine jewelry and art,” Arsham told WWD. “Pokémon has had an immense presence ever since I was a child, and this capsule collection celebrates the influence Pokémon has had in my work and my long-standing partnership with a heritage brand like Tiffany & Co. Both are inextricable from the cultural footprint of the past, present and future.” The pieces are inspired by Arsham's "Future Relics” series, where he reimagines important everyday items as archaeological discoveries in the near-distant future. Previously, he has produced pieces in collaboration with other creatives like Pharrell Williams, as well as other brands like Porsche and Christian Dior.

*Mark Zuckerberg finally approves Instagram feature users were asking for*

Mark Zuckerberg and Meta dropped Threads in July, breaking the internet in their attempt to challenge X (formerly known as Twitter) with the text-based social media account. At first, the app seemed promising as Threads was gaining millions of users in the days following its launch. Users were easily able to sign up as the Threads accounts were linked with Instagram and many did not need to fill out new information. However, the site has seen a steep drop off in users, with Zuckerberg saying in October that it was attracting about 100 million monthly users, which is half of what it had in July. Even in the weeks after its original July launch, engagement was already down nearly 80%. Related: Mark Zuckerberg may be hiding a dirty secret And while the link to Instagram made it easier for users to create Threads accounts, Meta also made it so that it was nearly impossible to delete it too. A major complaint of users was that there was no ability to delete a Threads account without also having to delete a user's Instagram account. The furthest a user could go was to deactivate their Threads. But Meta has finally decided to give users the freedom to get rid of their Threads account without bothering their Instagram. Instagram head Adam Mosseri announced the change on Threads on Monday, saying that the update is based on "feedback from our Threads community."Related: Meta unveils paid subscription option for ad-free Facebook, Instagram users in Europe The feature can be accessed by finding the "Delete or Deactivate Profile" section under Account in the Setting section of the Threads app. Action Alerts PLUS offers expert portfolio guidance to help you make informed investing decisions.

*What the presidential election means for your stock portfolio*

When investors are fretting about their finances, the concern often stems from economic issues, such as inflation or interest rates. But now there’s a different worry. Almost half (49%) of investors in a Janus Henderson survey are agitated about the 2024 presidential election's impact on their finances, topping concerns about inflation (35%) and recession risk (29%). Janus is a London-based money manager with assets of $308 billion. The survey included 1,000 investors with investable assets of at least $250,000. It’s old investors who are most concerned about the election, the survey said. Almost seven in 10 (69%) of the Silent Generation (ages 75 and up) are very concerned about the election compared to just 37% of Millennials (ages 25 to 40). Maybe it’s the youngsters who have it right. “Despite investors’ concern about the presidential election, results haven’t historically been a reason to exit the capital markets,” said Matt Sommer, head of specialist consulting at Janus Henderson Investors.Steady Stock Returns in All Cycles “In fact, looking back at S&P 500 returns from 1937 through 2022, the average annual return was 9.9% in presidential election years and 12.5% in non-election years.” It doesn’t seem to matter who’s in charge of the government. With Democrats in control of the presidency and Congress, the S&P 500 gained 11.5% in the calendar year after presidential elections, the survey said. With Republicans in control of the presidency and Congress, the S&P 500 climbed 16.1%. Meanwhile, with a Democratic president and the GOP in control of at least one house of Congress, the S&P 500 rose 15.9%. With a Republican president and the Democrats in control of at least one house of Congress, the S&P 500 ascended 9.4%. So you’re likely to do best just investing based on fundamentals, as always. A safe plan usually involves mostly to all stocks for young investors, with the rest devoted to bonds. And investors generally want to increase their bond weighting as they grow older.

*Venmo's newest feature erases the awkwardness of split checks*

Paying the bill for a group dinner is generally a hassle many people can relate to. One person takes the check to massive amount on their credit card, fully expecting the rest of the party to send their payments back soon. But sometimes it gets hard to track who pays what and how much to pay — especially when you have to add tax and tip — or other times you leave the restaurant and it just goes over someone's head to send you that Venmo payment. But Venmo is now releasing a feature that could ease some of that burden.Related: High-profile billionaire lets a big secret slip about Warren Buffett Venmo is launching a feature called Venmo Groups which allows users to track and split expenses. Members of the group can add an expense and indicate who in the group needs to pay and the app will be the one to split the costs. The feature therefore makes it easier to settle payments for groups that go out consistently or to multiple places in a day as it can provide running totals for the group. Members can also choose to settle their payments at anytime. Related: Why The Government Is Telling You To Stop Storing Cash In Venmo Groups can have up to 30 members, making it possible for bigger social groups like school clubs or sports teams to incorporate, while also going as small as helping a pair of best friends or a couple track their running totals. But while the feature will help ease the expense counting, it probably doesn't change the split bill etiquette as users will still have to decide who pays what. And as we've seen go viral in the past, it's possible not everyone in the group splits the bill the same way. @viccgotti WHO WAS WRONG IN THIS SITUATION?

*American Airlines offers passengers a zero-cost way to fly*

Major U.S. airlines encourage passengers to remain loyal to their brands by offering incentives to travel with them. American Airlines AAL has its AAdvantage program that allows its customers to earn miles for more than 1,000 flights globally and to receive benefits such as upgrades and car rentals.Related: Southwest Airlines makes major change that passengers won't like On Delta Air Lines DAL, flyers can take part in SkyMiles, a loyalty program that offers similar travel-related perks. MileagePlus is a United Airlines UAL program that incentivizes flyers to take advantage of priority boarding and lounge access. Southwest Airlines LUV offers its straightforward loyalty plan that earns its travelers' points based on the cost of a ticket. But there is one way to accumulate these benefits without having to drop a dime. Passengers traveling on an airplane. Shutterstock Taking surveys can help accumulate benefits Travelers can increase their points for less expensive travel by simply filling out some forms. That's because survey companies compensate travel providers when they refer people to participate in their studies. The surveys involve topics such as marketing and politics and typically take about 15 to 30 minutes to complete. American Airlines, for one, grants loyalty points for completing the surveys. The number of points earned is generally less than 50, so it takes some time to make it worthwhile. Travel writer Kyle Olsen, reporting for The Points Guy (TPG), explained a bit about the process. "Curious about the process, I enrolled in American Airlines' Miles for Opinions program," he wrote. "Upon completing my initial survey, AAdvantage members are rewarded with a bonus of 250 miles. Adding my AAdvantage number to the landing page proved to be a simple task." "Subsequently, I was directed to a page where I encountered an array of personal questions," Olsen continued. "A user willing to answer these questions would likely be presented with a survey to complete." These initial questions involve demographic topics such as one's income and race. Points obtained can be pretty small, but sometimes sign-on bonuses can be significant. In one case pertaining to a traveler's hotel stay, a person received a 10,000-point Hilton HLT bonus for filling out one survey. "That's worth $60 per TPG valuation — which might be more worth your while," Olsen wrote. "On Nov. 8, another TPG staff member received an email from JetBlue JBLU, stating that they could earn '400 TrueBlue points when you sign up for Jet Opinions and complete your first online survey,'" he continued. "Additionally, you'll keep earning TrueBlue points with each additional survey. If you want to add a few extra points to your bank, this could be an easy way." Olsen summed up the potential benefits of participating in the surveys this way: Earning points and miles without having to spend any money is appealing. However, you'll likely need to be comfortable answering personal demographic questions to earn points and miles through surveys. Additionally, beyond the occasional welcome bonus, you won't get much in terms of a return on your time investment. Still, it's worth considering as a way to earn a quick bump in points and miles, particularly American Loyalty Points.
