BOOTS

New movies like “Plane” and “House Party” were no match for “Avatar: The Way of Water” and the killer doll horror “M3GAN” at the box office this weekend.

“Avatar: The Way of Water” sailed to the top of the box office in its second weekend.

These are the stocks posting the largest moves in midday trading.

Walgreens Boots Alliance has decided not to sell its huge United Kingdom Boots business, after months of floating the idea.

The British retail chain has long been in decline. New owners have an opportunity to turn it around — though it won’t come easy or cheap.

Stocks of brands such as Piriton are affected by an industry-wide shortage of a key ingredient.

Mr Ambani, who is one of Asia's richest people, is reportedly planning a takeover of the retail chain.

Getting rid of the British business would enable the drugstore giant to concentrate on U.S. healthcare. But a disposal won’t be easy or cheap.

Walgreens earnings surged past Wall Street expectations for the fiscal third quarter, as the drugstore chain continued to rebuild sales hurt by the COVID-19 pandemic. Millions of vaccinations and tests helped pharmacy sales rebound, and an easing of pandemic restrictions in the United Kingdom brought some customers back to the company’s Boots stores. Deerfield, Illinois-based Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. runs more than 13,000 stores mainly in the United States and the United Kingdom.

This week’s new entertainment releases include Michael B.

But her life changed after “The Woman in Me,” her Grammy-winning second album released in February 1995, which was the best-selling release by a woman in country music at the time. But she was also taking a risk as a country artist to be so forward with her sexuality and her classic supermodel looks. Despite taking a long break from recording between 2002’s “Up!” and 2017’s “Now,” Twain is still the best-selling female country artist, according to the Recording Industry of America.
