-Chris Palmeri, Bloomberg News Senior Editor and Entertainment Team Leader, discusses a federal judge temporarily pausing Paramount Skydance Corp.’s takeover of Warner Bros.

A group of states sued Paramount Skydance Corp. seeking to block its bid to buy Warner Bros. Discovery Inc., alleging the deal would leave viewers with higher prices and fewer choices for movies and television.

- Lindsay Dutch, Bloomberg Intelligence Consumer Hardlines Senior Analyst, discusses Bloomberg Intelligence’s latest beauty survey. According to BI: Gen Z stands out in the June beauty survey, with signs of strengthening demand and possibly expanding baskets for the cohort in 2H, in contrast to broader survey results. These young shoppers skew to using a lot of product and favor specialty retailers Ulta Beauty and Sephora rather than the dominant mass channels, likely reflecting unique, on-trend assortments and preference to shop in-store.
