February 12 – European Central Bank (ECB) Executive Board member Gerard Schnabel stated that Europe possesses the conditions needed to build a prosperous economy, but must accelerate the implementation of reforms and embrace change. Schnabel said, “Europe is a continent with enormous potential. The picture for Europe should be optimistic, as Europe has the capacity and tools to meet challenges.” She added, “The key is to unleash the full potential of the single market, one of Europe’s strongest assets.” EU leaders will meet on Thursday, and officials, including ECB President Christine Lagarde, have urged countries to take bolder steps to enhance competitiveness. Schnabel pointed out that Europe must reduce regulatory barriers and emphasized the so-called “28th regime” proposal, which establishes an EU-level legal system outside of national legal frameworks, enabling companies to operate under new, uniformly formulated business rules at the European level.U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessant: President Trumps agenda to boost economic growth is benefiting American workers.

DoorDash Increases Its Core Growth Objective For 2022 After A 35% Increase in Sales

DoorDash Inc increased its full-year projection for a key industry statistic on Thursday, signaling that it has largely avoided the staffing shortages that have afflicted the majority of industries in order to provide seamless food and grocery delivery.


DoorDash's stock jumped 9% after the company also posted a better-than-expected 35% increase in quarterly sales, allaying investor fears that an easing epidemic would encourage people to dine out more and order in less.


The company's reputation as a facilitator of the gig economy has aided in attracting a consistent supply of delivery agents, in contrast to Domino's Pizza (NYSE:DPZ) and Pizza Hut, which have battled to sustain their fleets of riders in a difficult labor market.


DoorDash has retained its delivery workers in part because it has taken steps to alleviate the burden of rising gas costs by paying cash back and streamlining the process of working with the firm, according to CFO Prabir Adarkar.


The business now anticipates a gross order value of $49 billion to $51 billion for 2022, up from a previous range of $48 billion to $50 billion.


"Convenience is important to consumers. They like the convenience of having food and things delivered directly to their front door. As they begin to use the product, they develop a habit and gradually increase their usage "As Adarkar stated.


According to YipitData, DoorDash increased its market share in the US meal delivery business by one percentage point to 57% in March, while Grubhub lost momentum.


However, DoorDash's loss per share increased to 48 cents in the first quarter, up from 34 cents a year ago, as the company spent extensively in growing its grocery and other necessities delivery network and international expansion.


For the quarter ending March 31, revenue was $1.46 billion. According to Refinitiv's IBES data, analysts expected a loss of 41 cents per share on sales of $1.38 billion.
