- 2:23Eye-tracking tech reveals homebuyer blindspotsReuters VideosSTORY: This eye-tracking technology reveals what house hunters pay attention to when viewing a property. And the results might surprise you. “When buyers are viewing homes, they're spending lots of time on more superficial things..." The technology, developed by a company called Tobii, tracks the focus of homebuyers in real time. According to the research, homebuyers often skip over key areas like cellars, roofs, and attics, despite their potential to harbor significant issues. Here is Daniel Copley of property portal, Zoopla. "What they really need to be doing is looking at things like the brickwork, looking for signs of condensation or damp, the chimney, the boiler, the electrics, maybe even the Wi-Fi signal.” They eye-tracking tool highlights what areas, items or rooms draw buyers' attention and which are neglected. Jon Ward is Tobii's sales director. “The glasses have got four cameras built into the lenses and a number of illuminators. And the easiest way to describe what we do is, it's a little bit like the cat's eyes on the road. When your headlights hit it, it illuminates up and it's nice and bright. We're doing the same with the pupils. Totally harmless. Doesn't do anything there. The cameras pick up this reflection and then some very clever mathematics work out where you're actually looking from the image.” The experiment revealed that homebuyers often overlook structural elements of the property. Instead, they spend more time looking at furniture and decorative items. The trial found that only 38% of buyers' attention was on structural elements, while 54% was drawn to cosmetic features and furnishings. “Because you know you've got them on it does make you look up and look at certain things. So I enjoyed the experience, I really did. And the fact that it made me more aware to be aware, and I think that's a good thing.” Britain's new government has set out to deliver 1.5 million more homes before the next election. According to Richard Donnell, executive director at Zoopla, this will result in increased house-buying activity in the years to come. "This isn't like buying a car every three years. And it's a complicated process and there's more everyone can do. And technology like this helps us and others work out how to help consumers fill in those gaps and have a better experience."5 hours ago

- 1:38Fed 'stubborn by not lowering rates' -strategistReuters VideosSTORY: "The Fed making a decision in between meetings is the hot topic right now," said McGough, who believes that if the central bank does make what he called an "emergency cut" before its September meeting, it would be "a positive signal." "But then again," McGough added, "[Fed Chair Jerome] Powell likes to be very pragmatic in his approach. So it would be a little bit of a character change for how he's approached his tenure as Fed Chair, and I don't think he wants to get out in front of the [presidential] election. He wants to stay independent with what all is going on in Washington, D.C." Wednesday's U.S. consumer price index reading and Thursday's retail sales figures for July will provide the Fed with more economic data.

- 1:04Harris calls for eliminating taxes on tips during Nevada rallyReuters VideosSTORY: :: August 10, 2024 :: Las Vegas, Nevada :: Kamala Harris supports eliminating taxes on tips, taking a similar position to Donald Trump “And it is my promise to everyone here when I am president we will continue our fight for working families of America, including to raise the minimum wage and eliminate taxes on tips for service and hospitality workers.” “We fight for a future. Where we build a broad-based economy where every American has an opportunity to own a home, to start a business, and to build wealth. We believe in a future where we lower the cost of living for America's families, so they have a chance not just to get by but to get ahead. To get ahead." Harris and her Democratic running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, wrapped up a multi-day tour of battleground states on Saturday with their stop in Nevada, a western state that could play a pivotal role in the Nov. 5 presidential election. "It is my promise to everyone here when I am president we will continue our fight for working families of America, including to raise the minimum wage and eliminate taxes on tips for service and hospitality workers,” Harris said. Trump, who told a rally in Las Vegas in June that he would seek to end taxation of income from tips, accused Harris of stealing his policy proposal.

- 1:45Business Lookahead: Cruel summerReuters VideosSTORY: From a check-in on the U.S. economy, to key data from Japan, these are the stories to watch in business and finance in the coming week. :: Lookahead :: No 'quiet' summer The coming days are likely to be tinged with investor nervousness after the major meltdown that saw Japan's second-biggest stock crash and the largest ever intraday jump in Wall Street's most-watched gauge of investor anxiety, the VIX. And with concerns about a broader Middle East conflict and a U.S. election looming, volatility is unlikely to disappear soon. :: Wobbling growth? U.S. consumer price data is out on Wednesday, giving insight into how the world's largest economy is faring amid recent signs that growth is wobbling. Market hopes of an economic soft landing have been shaken by recent weak data. A number that shows only modest cooling could allay fears that the Fed left rates high for too long. A weak report could bolster recession worries. :: Disenchantment Japan's preliminary second-quarter growth figures are due on Thursday. It comes as some analysts have critiqued the Bank of Japan's recent rate hike as a policy misstep that triggered a brutal stock selloff, though the connection isn't quite so straightforward. So should Thursday's data point to a brighter outlook, Japanese policymakers can finally breathe a sigh of relief. A downside miss and they'd have to find more reasons to justify July's hike. :: Delicate balance The Bank of England will have a new set of data points to go through that might help determine what the coming few months will look like for monetary policy. Consumer inflation, including for the still-hot services sector, as well as second-quarter GDP and retail sales, are all in the mix.4 days ago

- 2:07Thailand's disbanded opposition regroups in a new partyReuters VideosSTORY: Thailand's largest opposition party regrouped under a new name on Friday (Aug 9). The party that had been called Move Forward was dissolved on Wednesday (August 7) by the Constitutional Court which ruled its campaign to reform a law on royal insults risked undermining the constitutional monarchy. Move Forward's disruptive, liberal agenda made it other powerful enemies, taking on entrenched interests with plans to reform the military and dismantle business monopolies worth billions of dollars. All 143 of its surviving lawmakers have joined the new grouping, renamed as the People’s Party. Here's its leader: “Today, I have been elected as the leader of the (People's Party) by the party’s general assembly. Now, I can speak openly and directly to everyone that our mission, including the party's executive committee, party members, MPs, and the entire team, is to form a government that can bring about change in the 2027 election." The People’s Party vows to advance reforms and amend Article 112, the controversial lese-majeste law. "We have consistently proposed amending Article 112 of the constitution to prevent it from being used as a tool for political persecution. The Constitutional Court's ruling did not prohibit amending the law, but we must be cautious and approach everything with great care.” The royal defamation law in Thailand is one of the world's strictest of its kind. It punishes acts deemed to insult Thai royals with up to 15 years imprisonment for each perceived crime. Hundreds of people have been prosecuted under the law in recent years, which the palace typically does not comment on. The People's Party is the third incarnation of the progressive Future Forward party, which was dissolved for a campaign finance violation in 2020, triggering nationwide anti-government protests.4 days ago
