The Navy Exchange, which is owned by the U.S. government, has long provided discounted, tax free goods to military members and their families. The profits all go back to helping to improve welfare programs for those enrolled in the Navy, but, in recent years, sales have declined and is now in the process of renovating its stores with planned investments of around $100 million across its fleet of stores to better compete with major e-commerce players.

CNBC’s Brandon Gomez looks into this growing technology.

How AI Is Helping Grocery Shoppers Save Money

The main demand signal for artificial intelligence looks explosive on paper, but it may be significantly overstated. Token consumption, the basic unit of AI usage, is becoming a distorted metric. Companies like Shopify and Meta have created internal “tokenmaxxing” leaderboards that track how many tokens employees use, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said engineers should be spending half their salary on tokens. But token demand is what the entire AI investment cycle is built on, and that demand number may not be real. CNBC’s Deirdre Bosa shares her perscpective on why Anthropic, by pricing its tools for that reality, might be the best positioned AI company if a correction comes.

AI Demand Is Overstated — Only Anthropic Is Being Realistic

The minivan has ticked back up in sales in recent years, and is a surprisingly significant share of sales for those still in the segment–Honda, Toyota, Kia, and Chrysler. The Pacifica minivan is the only model line Chrysler sells–something that has led industry watchers to fear the legendary American brand is on its last legs. Chrysler brand CEO Matt McAlear, who also runs Dodge, says more plans will be revealed at parent Stellantis’s investor day on May 21. In the meantime, the minivan is faring rather well, he said. Affordability is a growing concern for many buyers, and a minivan’s average transaction price is about $20,000 dollars less than that of a large SUV in the US. That is a great value for a buyer that needs a spacious vehicle for ferrying passengers or even cargo, say analysts.

Why Chrysler Says There Is A Minivan ‘Resurgence’

SUVs and pickups have really taken over the US car market. But with average vehicle prices so high, some automakers are still selling healthy numbers of sedans and other low-roofed passenger cars. Kia, Toyota, and Volkswagen, among others have kept sedans in the market, and EVs like the Tesla Model 3 are popular. Detroit automakers Ford and GM have hinted they might want back in.
