                      | Good morning, Daily Money friends, it's Nathan Bomey welcoming you to Monday. | 
                                                                              | It's free! Well, sort of. That gigantic cargo ship that got stuck in the Suez Canal has been partially freed. | 
                                                                              | Yay. But as I saw someone say on Twitter, the fact that a big boat got stuck and it took us a solid week to free it makes me think that maybe our society isn't advanced as I had thought. | 
                                                                              | 💰 Hey, Daily Money is our regular USA TODAY roundup of all things personal finance, business and tech. If you're not yet subscribed, it's free, so sign up here! |

Two additional tugboats are speeding to canal to aid efforts to free the skyscraper-sized container ship wedged for days across the crucial waterway. That's even as major shippers increasingly divert their boats out of fear the vessel may take even longer to free. |                                        | Suez Canal Authority via AP |  |

If they hit a snag in their efforts to get the ship out of the way, we could soon see more shortages of basic home goods. | 
                                                                              | 📰 Here are our top stories: |
