The Daily Money
 
Friday, September 9

Finally, it's Friday. Brett Molina back behind the wheel. Don't go rushing toward the weekend just yet. We've got Daily Money headlines to check out.

Let's begin with the surge in electric vehicles coming to the market. The latest automaker driving deeper into the EV market is Jeep, showing off two new EVs it plans to launch in North America in the next two years.

There's the Jeep Wagoneer S and the Jeep Recon, which has drawn comparisons to the Jeep Wrangler. Production on both vehicles is set to start in 2024. Although Jeep didn't provide specifics on the Recon, the company said it's targeting a range of 400 miles on a charge and 600 horsepower for the Wagoneer S.

Jeep did not share details on how much either vehicle will cost.

More women are heading back to work

Here's another sign the impact COVID-19 is having on our everyday lives is shrinking: More women between the ages of 25 and 54 are returning to the workforce. In August, nearly half a million women in that age bracket joined the labor force , the most since June 2020, according to data from the Labor Department. What's sparking the return? Economists say inflation is playing a role. But also child care responsibilities, most of which are handled by women, have eased as schools reopen and day care centers return to pre-pandemic staffing.

The thought of putting any liquid in your cereal that's not milk just feels so wrong. But Kellogg's latest cereal wants you to just add water. The company's new InstaBowls require consumers to add cold water and "instantized milk turns into real milk with a quick stir," said Kellogg's in a statement. The InstaBowls are available in Frosted Flakes, Froot Loops, Apple Jacks and Raisin Bran Crunch.
