AMC Theatres has spent the COVID-19 pandemic trying to stave off bankruptcy, but its latest round of financing may have bought the theater chain enough time to survive until cineplexes can reopen…at least, if that reopening comes sometime this year. On Monday, CEO Adam Aron announced that the company has raised $917 million in new equity and debt capital and expects that the new cash flow, combined with negotiations with landlords on lease payments and successful vaccination of millions of Americans, should be enough to prevent AMC from having to file bankruptcy before health officials give movie theaters the green light to reopen. Also Read: AMC Theatres Has Raised $917 Million to Weather 'Dark Coronavirus-Impacted Winter' Currently, about 74% of AMC’s U.S. circuit — the country’s largest theater chain — is open with only 155 of its 593 locations closed due to state COVID mandates. But with last weekend’s North American box office falling to just under $10 million, revenue has almost entirely collapsed for the company as it has for the entire exhibition industry. While AMC has yet to release its Q4 earnings, the chain reported a 92.5% drop in attendance year-over-year through the end of September and a 91%...Read original story Will Latest Financial Move by AMC Theatres Save It From Bankruptcy?

Both Michael Pearse and Yongchao Liu arrived in the United States on Monday, prosecutors said.

The death of Bryant, who won five championships in his 20 seasons with the Lakers, stunned the sports world and led to an outpouring of emotion in the city, where the pain of his loss is matched only by the legacy he left behind.

“Nomadland,” “One Night in Miami,” “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom,” “First Cow” and “Bad Education” have been nominated for the 2021 USC Libraries Scripter Awards, which are given out every year to a literary adaptation and the source material from which it is taken.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq slipped from record highs in a choppy session Tuesday as investors digested a batch of corporate earnings results. A Federal Reserve policy announcement expected Wednesday helped restrain the moves. Systematic Ventures economist Max Wolff says he sees signs that the market may be nearing a peak. “I think you’re sort of seeing a lot of topping signals, which I think you’re starting to see in the market, which is yeah, the numbers are still good. But it’s very hard to figure out what sends them higher. And in many cases, it’s really hard to see how they could stay up here. You had some easy comparisons because last year kind of Q1 was disastrous.” The Dow and the Nasdaq ended just below the breakeven level. The S&P 500 inched nearly two-tenth percent lower. 3M was the Dow’s second leading gainer. Lower costs and higher demand for hand sanitizers, masks and safety glasses amid the health crisis helped lift its quarterly profit past analysts targets. Also keeping the blue-chip index from falling further: Johnson & Johnson. The drugmaker said it expects to release data on its COVID-19 vaccine early next week. After the markets closed, Microsoft reported that quarterly profit jumped 33%, easily beating expectations. Revenue growth at its cloud computing service, Azure, also topped analysts targets as people stayed and studied at home. Shares rose 4.5% after hours. Shares of Starbucks slid. The world’s largest coffee chain’s comparable sales fell more than expected as the rising number of coronavirus cases kept its U.S. customers at home.
