| Good morning, Daily Money crew, it's Nathan Bomey reporting that you're just about at the halfway point of the week. Happy Wednesday to you. |
| What a profound day for the nation yesterday, when Derek Chauvin was convicted of murdering George Floyd. |
| On the Money team, we were monitoring corporate America for statements following the verdict. There wasn't much, though Facebook, Microsoft, Starbucks and General Motors were exceptions. |
| On to our ... |
| 💡 INSIGHT OF THE DAY: Dogecoin, the surging cryptocurrency that was created as a joke, has increased in value by more than 15,400% over the last year. That would top the percentage increase of every publicly traded stock during that same period. But experts are concerned about its volatility and usability. |
| 📰 Here are our top stories: |
| 1. Million-dollar home listings are soaring. Meanwhile, entry-level homes are becoming less and less available. Our new reporter, Swapna Venugopal Ramaswamy, has the details. |
| 2. Facebook said it would deploy emergency measures to protect Black people from hate and from calls for violence following the Chauvin verdict. So why can't those measures stay in place at all times? |
| 3. Apple unveiled a slew of products on Tuesday. They included multicolor iMacs, a new iPad Pro, a purple iPhone 12 and AirTags. |
| 4. Disputing a credit card charge? Here are four things you need to know. |
| 5. As a small business owner, you will have to be a salesperson at some point. Here are some successful sales techniques. |
| 6. From Minecraft to Zoom calls, we've all spent much of the pandemic on our screens. But are we ready for the metaverse? |
| Our Mike Snider describes it as "a virtual world on the internet where the mundane and the surreal coexist." |
| I'm ready. I think. OK, maybe not. |
