Meet Chloe and Claire Lee, the sisters behind the Selleb app – they share almost everything, including their wardrobe and Instagram account, and they're friendly with Steve Jobs' daughter, Eve
Want to recommend a product? Be sure to show your receipt. Chloe Lee and her sister Claire Lee think receipts offer a deep insight into our habits and lifestyle, and wanted a place where they could see what cool and influential people were buying. This was the main inspiration behind their invite-only app Selleb, a product discovery platform that uses receipts to connect users with similar taste profiles.

The app allows users to share their spending – from big purchases to groceries and coffee – and provide real recommendations to fellow consumers. Users can discover candid reviews from others and find options for their next splurge without being bothered by paid ads or fake ratings.

Already moving in the right circles – Claire was recently spotted on a girls' trip with Steve Jobs' daughter Eve – the pair are obviously on the up and up. So what else do we know about them?
They started out selling second-hand items

In middle and high school, Chloe and Claire sold second-hand items on Poshmark, an online marketplace for clothes and accessories. According to an interview with Andover, the sisters' secondary school, their first sale was a
Victoria's Secret phone case.
From there, they expanded their sales to include pieces from their wardrobes and items that they had hand-picked at thrift stores. An important moment for them was when they found a Roberto Cavalli blouse for 69 cents and resold it for US$250.
Amassing a following of over 650,000 on Poshmark and gaining attention as successful fashion bloggers, the pair eventually collaborated with brands such as Revolve, Urban Outfitters and Le Labo.

Trade chaos drives first-half privatisation to US$1.8 trillion as world braces for turmoil
Big money takeovers of private companies helped drive mergers and acquisitions in the first half, as deal makers got comfortable writing sizeable cheques in topsy-turvy markets. Advertisement More than half of the 10 largest deals announced in 2025 have involved a private target, data compiled by Bloomberg show, including the tie-up of Charter Communications and Cox Communications, Alphabet's purchase of cybersecurity firm Wiz and Constellation Energy's acquisition of US power station operator Calpine. All were valued at around US$30 billion or more, including debt. Transactions like these and Meta Platforms' US$14 billion-plus investment in data-labeling start-up Scale AI have lifted the value of all deals globally by almost a fifth to US$1.8 trillion, the data show. 'The creativity we're seeing across deals is symptomatic of the need to unwind the massive amounts of capital tied up in privately held companies,' said Haidee Lee, global head of sponsor M&A at Goldman Sachs. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro speaks at the former Three Mile Island nuclear power plant after a tour by Constellation Energy in Londonderry Township, Pennsylvania on June 25, 2025.

That is despite the ongoing geopolitical and trade turmoil that has at times this year set alarm bells ringing across Wall Street's M&A desks and which could still damage sentiment going forward.

Carney says trade talks with US resume after Canada rescinded tech tax
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said late Sunday that trade talks with the US have resumed after Canada rescinded its plan to tax US technology firms. Advertisement US President Donald Trump said Friday that was suspending trade talks with Canada over its plans to continue with its tax on technology firms, which he called 'a direct and blatant attack on our country'. The Canadian government says 'in anticipation' of a trade deal 'Canada would rescind' the Digital Services Tax. The tax was set to go into effect on Monday. Carney's office said Carney and Trump have agreed to resume negotiations. 'Today's announcement will support a resumption of negotiations toward the July 21, 2025, timeline set out at this month's G7 Leaders' Summit in Kananaskis,' Carney said in a statement. Advertisement Carney visited Trump in May at the White House, where he was polite but firm. Trump travelled to Canada for the G7 summit in Alberta, where Carney said that Canada and the US had set a 30-day deadline for trade talks.

US Senate pushes ahead on Trump's sweeping tax cut and spending bill
Senate Republicans pushed forward US President Donald Trump's sweeping tax cut and spending bill on Sunday in a marathon weekend session even as a non-partisan forecaster said it would add an estimated US$3.3 trillion to the nation's debt over a decade. Advertisement The estimate by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) of the bill's hit to the US$36.2 trillion federal debt is about US$800 billion more than the version passed last month in the House of Representatives. Republicans, who have long voiced concern about growing US deficits and debt, have rejected the CBO's long-standing methodology to calculate the cost of legislation. Democrats, meanwhile, hope the latest, eye-widening figure could stoke enough anxiety among fiscally minded conservatives to get them to buck their party, which controls both chambers of Congress.
