Target is recalling more than 200,000 children’s sandals over the potential risk of “serious injury or death” from a choking hazard.

About 211,000 Cat & Jack Toddler Girls’ Sequerah Sandals are affected by the recall, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced Thursday.

The choking hazard concern is due to the possibility of decorative pearls falling off the shoes.

“The sandals’ decorative pearls can fall off, posing a risk of serious injury or death from a choking hazard,” the CPSC said.

Kesha has one of the most unusual collections in pop music: more than 1,000 human teeth, mailed to her by fans over more than a decade, that she has since turned into jewelry, a bra top and a full headdress.

The singer, known for hits including “TiK ToK,” “Timber” and “Praying,” has spoken publicly about the collection for years, most recently addressing it again in interviews where she explained why she continues to hold onto the teeth and what she has made from them.

“I made a necklace, an earring and then a belt and then a crown,” Kesha said, describing the pieces she has crafted from the real teeth sent in by supporters.

The hobby dates back to at least 2012, when Kesha, then performing as Ke$ha, first asked fans to mail her their teeth. She has said the response was overwhelming. “I asked for them to send me their teeth and I got, like, over 1,000 human teeth,” she told interviewers at the time. “I made it into a bra top, and a headdress, and earrings and necklaces. I’ve worn it out!”

Kesha has since described the origins of the collection as tied to her closeness with her fan base rather than any singular artistic plan. Appearing on the “Las Culturistas” podcast, she recalled how the idea began almost by accident. “The teeth started when I became obsessed with my fans and then someone was like, ‘My child lost their teeth,’ and I was like, ‘Can I have them?’” she said.

Rather than let baby teeth or extracted teeth go to waste, Kesha has framed the collection as a form of reuse. “Do you flush them down the toilet? Where are they going? Give them to me. Can I actually have them? It’s not a drill, not a joke,” she said, before adding with a laugh, “I am a pop star and I need your teeth.”

She has also acknowledged that the collection tends to unsettle some people, saying she enjoys the reaction it draws. “Then I just started collecting them because it kind of freaks out straight men,” she said in the same interview.

Beyond the shock value, Kesha has described a more personal motivation for keeping the teeth. In an appearance on “Call Her Daddy” earlier this year, she explained that the collection has become a way of holding onto small physical connections to people she cares about. “It just reminds me when I have a little piece of the people I love,” she said.

That sentiment extends beyond her human fans. Kesha said she also keeps teeth from her own cats after veterinary procedures. “I have my cats, they had to get their little teeth taken out. They’re little kitty wisdom teeth. I collect those too,” she said.

The teeth collection is not the only unconventional keepsake in Kesha’s life. During the same “Call Her Daddy” conversation, she revealed that her mother, Rosemary, had saved her placenta after giving birth to her, storing it in the family’s basement for roughly two decades before Kesha eventually had it turned into a piece of jewelry.

Kesha’s fascination with the material history of the body has occasionally intersected with more difficult periods in her life. In January 2014, while in treatment for an eating disorder, a friend used Kesha’s social media account to thank fans for their support and, on the singer’s behalf, put out a renewed call for teeth to continue the project while she was in the facility. A message posted at the time said she was “doing well and needs more of your teeth to make art with at the treatment center.” According to later reporting, the treatment center was ultimately unable to accept packages containing real human teeth due to biohazard concerns, though fans were told that packages of fake teeth would be accepted instead.

Kesha has continued to display pieces from the collection throughout her home and has periodically shown them off publicly, including photos of the teeth headdress she wore to promote her 2012 album “Warrior.” A limited jewelry line built around the concept, called Kesha Rose, later sold out several of its pieces, including items made using real teeth sent in by fans following her original request.

The singer’s willingness to keep revisiting the topic in interviews, more than a decade after she first asked fans to mail her their teeth, has kept the collection a recurring point of fascination for both longtime followers and new audiences discovering the story for the first time. It has also become something of a signature quirk for an artist whose career has long embraced the unconventional, from glitter-caked album art to lyrics celebrating chaos and excess.

Kesha’s broader career has continued to grow alongside the collection’s notoriety. She has scored two number-one albums on the Billboard 200 with “Animal” and “Rainbow,” and has landed ten top-ten singles on the Billboard Hot 100, including “TiK ToK,” “Right Round” with Flo Rida, “Blah Blah Blah,” “Your Love Is My Drug,” “Take It Off,” “We R Who We R,” “Blow,” “Die Young” and “Timber” with Pitbull.

For now, Kesha shows no sign of retiring the hobby. Between the human teeth, the cat teeth and the other unusual keepsakes scattered through her home, the singer has built a collection that doubles as both an art project and, by her own account, a way of staying close to the people and animals she loves — one discarded tooth at a time.

ET Intelligence Group: The logistics sector is expected to post a healthy revenue growth in the June quarter, driven by sustained demand from e-commerce and quick-commerce channels, rising supply-chain outsourcing, and improving freight activity across segments. Volume growth, network expansion and customer additions are likely to support top line performance for most companies.

However, elevated fuel costs, pricing pressure in select segments and integration-related expenses are expected to weigh on profitability, resulting in a mixed margin outlook across the sector.

Container Corporation of India (CONCOR) is expected to deliver healthy quarter led by 8% growth in import-export volumes and 15% growth in domestic volumes. It could face realisation pressure and domestic bottlenecks, although gradual traction in dedicated freight corridor (DFC) supports efficiency gains. While operating margin before depreciation and amortisation (Ebitda margin) is expected to improve driven by recovery in domestic business, its extent may be limited given the weakness on pricing front.

Delhivery‘s revenue is expected to rise in double digits led by volume growth, consolidation of Ecom Express, continued expansion in express parcel and PTL businesses. However, realisation per shipment may decline in express parcel due to rising lower valued orders in the mix. Integration expenses, higher fuel costs and employee expenses may weigh on margins in the near term. Net profit is expected to decline due to cost pressure and added integration costs.
For Blue Dart Express, revenue is likely to grow in mid-single digit supported by volume growth across both air and surface express segments. Analysts expect Ebitda margins to improve aided by pricing discipline, network optimisation and better realisations. Diesel and aviation turbine fuel (ATF) prices will be key factors influencing profitability and margins.

TCI’s revenue may rise in double digits led by the supply chain and freight segments. Over the medium term, the company expects supply chain revenue to grow 13-15%, supported by a healthy contract pipeline and continued demand for warehousing services. Key monitorables include the pace of freight volume recovery, the ability to pass on higher fuel costs to customers and margin performance in the seaways business amid elevated bunker fuel prices.

ET Intelligence Group: Wipro reported sustained momentum in order bookings and large deal wins for the June quarter. However, its revenue fell 1.4% sequentially to $2,614.5 million after a marginal improvement seen in the previous three quarters while operating margin contracted by 130 basis points to 16%, the lowest since the December 2023 quarter when it was at the same level. The country’s fourth largest software exporter continued to show weakness in execution as clients took more time to roll out projects.

The company’s management iterated in a post-result media call that it did not notice any material change in demand scenario from the previous quarter. In addition, the deal flow worth $3,370 million during the June quarter was supported by cost optimisation drive and vendor consolidation by clients. In this backdrop, its September quarter guidance continues to be cautious as it expects revenue to either drop by 1.5% or improve marginally by 0.5% sequentially. This spells no respite for the stock, which has fallen by 15% since April 16 when the company declared the March quarter numbers.

Notwithstanding the short term growth challenges, the company’s annual revenue trend has started looking less bleak, helped by a steady flow of orders and a series of acquisitions. The extent of revenue decline moderated significantly to 0.3% in FY26 from 3.2% in FY24. Additionally, the year-on-year difference in the trailing 12 month (TTM) revenue turned positive at $32 million in June quarter for the first time in 11 quarters. To retain this trend reversal in the coming quarters, Wipro will require to speed up project ramp ups. The management stated that project execution has taken speed in some of the recently won large deal wins. This will be a key factor to monitor in the near term.

Unlike the larger peers including Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and HCL Technologies (HCLTech), Wipro has not yet committed any capital expenditure (capex) in creating its own data centre capacity. Instead, it has been focussing on the designing and deploying solutions for clients through partnerships in the artificial intelligence (AI) ecosystem. While this approach prevents any short term stress on the balance sheet arising from debt arrangements required for the AI related capex, investors would keenly watch the effectiveness of different AI strategies over the next few quarters.
At Thursday’s closing price of ₹177.8 on the BSE, Wipro’s stock traded at a trailing price-earnings (P/E) multiple of 13.4. It is at a discount to the 10-year average multiple of over 18, reflecting weak investor sentiment. A revival in the valuation depends upon the how quickly the company’s revenue and profitability improve.

Asian stocks edged lower after a selloff in chipmakers dragged down Wall Street as investors questioned whether massive artificial-intelligence investments can justify lofty valuations. Oil climbed.

The MSCI Asia Pacific Index slid 0.3%, with declines in Japan and Australia. South Korea is closed for a public holiday. Contracts on the Nasdaq 100 dropped 0.5% after the underlying gauge lost 1.6% on Thursday. Also weighing on sentiment was Netflix Inc., whose shares fell over 8% in extended trading after forecasting a second straight quarter of slowing sales growth.

In a renewed bout of volatility Thursday, a US gauge of chip giants slumped more than 4% as investors questioned whether tech stocks have grown too richly valued amid massive capex plans. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.’s American depositary receipts dropped 2% as a solid outlook was overshadowed by a higher spending forecast.

Elsewhere, Brent recouped some of the previous session’s losses as hostilities across the Middle East continued to escalate and shipping traffic slumped in the Strait of Hormuz. The commodity traded just under $85 a barrel. Government bonds edged lower in Australia and New Zealand, while Treasuries were steady.

“The action in the chip stocks going forward is still the most important issue for the stock market,” said Matt Maley, chief market strategist at Miller Tabak. “They are definitely showing some meaningful cracks, so they’re going to have to see a strong and sustainable rebound soon or it will raise some real warning flags.”

Heightened geopolitical tension helped keep a lid on risk appetite and pushed oil prices higher this week, fueling concerns about inflationary pressures that could prompt the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates before the year is over. Treasury yields edged higher Thursday and the dollar notched modest gains.
Fed Bank of Kansas City President Jeff Schmid said inflation is his biggest worry given the risk of a further acceleration in the months ahead. His Dallas counterpart Lorie Logan called for higher rates, saying inflation does not appear to be heading sustainably back to the target.Traders also parsed key economic reports. Jobless claims fell last week while retail sales rose modestly in June, dragged down by a drop in gas-station receipts that masked strong gains at some merchants.

“Despite challenges, consumers are still spending and the labor market shows no signs of cracking,” said Ellen Zentner at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. “This type of data won’t move the Fed’s needle either way, but it underscores the ongoing resilience of the US economy.”
