Pumped by Sydney Sweeney, dumped by reality: Inside American Eagle's 24-hour meme rally
The Holy Mother has blessed the Eagle! Sydney Sweeney poses for photographers upon arrival at the premiere of the film 'Echo Valley' on Tuesday, June 10, 2025, in London. (Photo by Scott A Garfitt/Invision/AP)(Scott A Garfitt/Invision/AP) Yes, you guessed it right, American Eagle's recent team-up with Hollywood heartthrob, Sydney Sweeney, has turned out to be a blessing for the jeans maker- at least in the short term. As soon as it was announced on Wednesday, July 23, that 'Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans,' the fans of the 27-year-old Euphoria star couldn't contain their excitement about American Eagle's fall '25 jeans collection. The buzz was so big that it spilled over into the stock market, sparking a day-long stock rally for American Eagle Outfitters Inc. at the NYSE. When the New York Stock Exchange closed on Tuesday, July 22, the share price of American Eagle was hovering at $10 - $10.5. But as soon as it opened on July 23, the charts showed Sydney Sweeney's impact, and stock prices saw a sudden jump. By the time the market closed at 4 p.m. UTC on Wednesday, American Eagle shares were trading at $12.0, a 17.65% increase in the day's trading. The meme rally was a blessing for American Eagle, as the company that has suffered a 35% fall in share price in 2025, so far. Sydney Sweeney Meme Rally, A 'Pump And Dump' Scheme? Despite all the buzz around American Eagle after the Sydney Sweeney collaboration, there was a visible cause of concern. As the NYSE closed on Wednesday, FactSheet data revealed that 13% of American Eagle shares were sold short, indicating that the anticipation was just momentary. As the markets opened on July 24, Thursday, American Eagle shares saw a fall. At the time of this writing, American Eagle equity was trading at $11:31 - a 6.1% fall from Wednesday's peak of $12.

Hungary bans Irish rap group Kneecap from entering ahead of festival
The group has faced criticism for political statements seeming to glorify militant groups like Hamas and Hezbollah Published Jul 24, 2025 • 2 minute read Naoise O Caireallain, left, and Liam Og of the hip hop trio Kneecap perform during the Glastonbury Festival in Worthy Farm, Somerset, England, Saturday, June 28, 2025. Photo by Scott A Garfitt / Scott A Garfitt/Invision/AP BUDAPEST, Hungary — Members of the Irish-language rap group Kneecap were banned from entering Hungary ahead of their scheduled performance at the popular Sziget Festival as authorities argued the musicians' presence in the country would constitute a risk to national security.

Create Account The Belfast trio, scheduled to play on Sziget's closing day on Aug. 11, is known for anarchic energy, satirical lyrics and use of symbolism associated with the Irish republican movement, which seeks to unite Northern Ireland, currently part of the U.K., with the Republic of Ireland. The group has faced criticism for lyrics laden with expletives and drug references and for political statements seeming to glorify militant groups like Hamas and Hezbollah. Kneecap has accused critics of trying to silence the band because of its support for the Palestinian cause throughout Israel's war in Gaza and say they don't support Hezbollah and Hamas nor condone violence. Hungary's immigration authority, the National Directorate-General for Aliens Policing, published decrees on Thursday declaring Kneecap members Naoise ' Caireallain, J.J. ' Dochartaigh and Liam 'g 'hAnnaidh would be banned from Hungary's territory for three years since their 'entry and stay constitute a serious threat to national security.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Government spokesman Zoltan Kovacs wrote on social platform X that the decision to ban Kneecap was due to 'antisemitic hate speech and open praise for Hamas and Hezbollah.' Hungarian authorities and other groups had earlier pushed Sziget Festival to cancel the band's performance. Hungary's minister for European affairs, Janos Boka, noted the government's 'zero-tolerance' policy toward antisemitism in a July 11 letter to the festival's organizers. Hundreds of figures from Hungary's music and cultural community also have signed a petition calling for Kneecap's performance to be cancelled. The group performed in April at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in California, where they accused Israel of committing genocide against the Palestinians enabled by the U.S. government. That sparked calls for the rappers' U.S. visas to be revoked and several Kneecap gigs have since been canceled as a result. Love concerts, but can't make it to the venue?

EDITORIAL: Don't import more hateful poison
Hip hop trio Kneecap perform during the Glastonbury Festival in Worthy Farm, Somerset, England, Saturday, June 28, 2025. (Scott A Garfitt/Invision/AP) It's heartening that nine Indigenous leaders are supporting the cancellation of Canadian shows by a controversial rap group.

Create Account Postmedia's Bryan Passifiume reports that nine First Nations leaders across the country say the group Kneecap, which is caught up in controversy over its performance at a recent concert in Glastonbury in the U.K., should not be allowed to perform at four sold-out concerts booked for Vancouver and Toronto in October. One member of the Belfast-based group is facing terror-related charges in the U.K. for allegedly displaying a Hezbollah flag at a concert last year. Hezbollah is deemed a terrorist organization in both Britain and Canada. He's denied the charge. Police in Britain are investigating whether comments made by Kneecap or punk rock group Bob Vylan at Glastonbury constitute a criminal offence. Bob Vylan is alleged to have led chants calling for death to the Israeli Defence Force (IDF). This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. The U.S. State Department has pulled visas for a planned American tour by Bob Vylan. Chants calling for an intifada revolution are common at Kneecap shows. Eabametoong First Nation Chief Harvey Yesno told Passifiume that displaying Palestinian flags, calling for death to the IDF and supporting terror are unacceptable to the peaceful ethos of Indigenous treaties. 'By allowing Kneecap to perform on Indigenous lands, Live Nation and the MRG Group are not only endorsing rhetoric that promotes division, hate and glorification of terror, they are violating the spirit and obligations of the Treaties of Peace and Friendship,' he said. We support freedom of speech. If haters are going to hate, let's get their poison out in the open so we know who and what we're dealing with. That way, we'll learn the identities of those misguided souls — who mindlessly chant along with these vile people — and what they stand for. But freedom of speech ends when it promotes violence. Canada has hate laws and a history of refusing entry to those who target minorities with their poisonous views. Since Oct. 7, 2023, Canadians have tolerated homegrown hatred on our streets. We don't need to import those who have a history of making vile, antisemitic statements. If the promoters won't cancel the concerts, the federal Immigration department should refuse Kneecap entry.
