WorkNew gun safety laws take effect around US after over 650 mass shootings in 2023  The gruesome event last year reignited efforts by advocates and lawmakers for firearm safety measures to prevent another tragedy, but many politicians still refrain from adopting large-scale reforms.

WorkHistory Says the Nasdaq Will Surge in 2024: 2 Stock-Split Stocks to Buy Before It Does  While the final tally isn\'t in yet, Tesla is expected to sell 1.8 million cars this year, which would represent growth of about 38%. While that falls short of the company\'s long-term production goals of 50%, it\'s impressive nonetheless, especially considering the headwinds that have buffeted the economy over the past couple of years.
