WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - The much-anticipated re-paving of Castle Street in Wilmington has caused unexpected problems for small businesses along the street.

Climate change is risky business - The Washington Post
If we handled climate risk the way that businesses manage risk every day, we would have tackled climate change a long, long time ago. But that's not how we as a society are responding — even though the potential consequences are a lot worse than most business risks.
Consider how climate change risk is expressed in key reports like those from the U.S. National Climate Assessment (NCA) and the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
What about rising sea level? Under our current emissions trajectory, the NCA says there is a 2 in 3 chance that between $66 billion and $106 billion of real estate will be underwater by 2050. And we mean literally underwater.

How entrepreneurs can use Kabbage to solve cash flow freak-outs - Business Insider
It's obvious that you must have enough cash on hand to operate, but having too much excess can cause other problems — especially if your operating cash is matched by interest-bearing debt.
Kabbage cofounder and CEO Rob Frohwein sees a lot of small businesses grapple with this balance-sheet balancing act, and he's working on a solution for both sides of the ledger.
"We've looked at data from [small businesses] borrowing from us, and they borrow too much, they borrow too soon, and they hold on to it for too long," he told Business Insider in an interview.
ExxonMobil: I'm a Bull and Even I Have to Admit Business Is Bad Right Now | The
At this point, there's not a lot going that's likely to change this scenario for the better. For example, energy prices are likely to linger at around current levels because of the supply-and-demand dynamics in the market. On the supply side, U.S. energy production has exploded in recent years, upending the historical equilibrium in the space. Fracking tends to ramp up quickly when prices rise, keeping a lid on the price of oil.
Natural gas, meanwhile, ends up being a byproduct of increasing shale oil drilling. So even if natural gas-specific drilling efforts are curtailed (reducing supply), gas production is likely to remain relatively high and continue to be a headwind to this fuel. Exxon's efforts to increase its own production are good for the company in many ways, but they will help hamper energy prices.
