*By: Madison Alworth* It's summer, which means it's rosé season. The pink drink is popping up everywhere from bars to Instagram feeds. And one company is trying to capitalize on the summertime favorite. Bev launched in May with a brand new canned product catering to millennial women. It started as a passion project for CEO Alix Peabody. "To get the first product I cashed out my 401K and bought a bunch of rosé," said Peabody, who was previously a financial recruiter. Some might say it was more than "a bunch"ーPeabody bought 300 gallons of the pink stuff. Still, Bev has plenty of competition. There's [Ruza Rosé](http://ruzawines.winc.com/), [Babe] (https://www.swishbev.com/products/babe-rose-with-bubbles-4-pack), and [Lila](http://www.lilawines.com/) just to name a few. Peabody has an idea about why there's so much interest. "I think a lot of it has to do with millennial culture and people just being generally excited about accessibility and 'un-snobbery,' if you will," she said.

Tesla’s profit fell in third quarter even as sales rose
Tesla, the car company run by Elon Musk, reported Wednesday that it sold more vehicles in the past three months after boycotts hit hard earlier this year, but profits still fell sharply. Third-quarter earnings fell to $1.4 billion, from $2.2 billion a year earlier. Excluding charges, per share profit of 50 cents came in below analysts' estimate. Tesla shares fell 3.5% in after-hours trading. Musk said the company's robotaxi service, which is available in Austin, Texas, and San Francisco, will roll out to as many as 10 other metro areas by the end of the year.
