CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart agree to pay $13 billion over opioids

The pharmacy chains have reached a tentative deal to settle thousands of lawsuits brought by state and local governments that accuse them of contributing to the opioid epidemic.

If the deal goes through, CVS and Walgreens will each cough up around $5 billion, and Walmart will reportedly be on the hook for $3 billion.

The rate for I bonds, an asset that’s tied to the rate of inflation, was lowered to 6.89% yesterday from its record high of 9.62%. But in the final days of the previous rate, investors hoarded I bonds like crazy.

Now, on Friday, the Treasury sold $979 million of I bonds, nearly as much as the entire amount sold in the three years from 2018 to 2020, per CNBC. The investors also crashed the website.
