Nvidia, the U.S.-based semiconductor powerhouse, is under scrutiny by Chinese regulators for suspected violations of the country’s anti-monopoly laws, according to China Central Television.

Once hailed as the height of American aerospace invention and engineering, Boeing now faces several growing difficulties that have aroused shareholder uncertainty and jeopardized its financial viability. The decline of the stock has been brutal. Disputes, manufacturing delays, and eroding market trust have eclipsed the company’s heritage over decades of greatness. Unexpectedly, even Boeing’s own employees, who form the core of its operations, have begun to support a radical and transformative action: a full Boeing breakup. This internal desire for change shows a growing awareness among companies that their present structure is not efficiently serving their stakeholders. Analysts estimate that…

Stellantis shares steadied as investors tried to make sense of legendary CEO Carlos Tavares’s sudden demise. Some critics said Tavares downfall resulted from the company’s problems in the U.S., but others suggested his overall record wasn’t as strong as it once appeared. Tavares’ sudden change in direction after his vigorous opposition to European Union CO2 rules might have soured relations with the board. Stellantis dived 8% when the news broke. That would have looked spectacular if they hadn’t already fallen more than 50% since March. Stellantis shares ended the week at €12.97 after the initial low of €11.60 and compared…

Digging into a fund’s prospectus and annual reports is something they look forward to. But if you’re like many people, you look to a wealth manager to oversee at least some of your investments for you, or at the very least help with things like tax optimization, financial planning and setting up an estate plan. There are, however, a few things we need to bear in mind when selecting one. For starters, while many wealth managers can help their clients…

What could be stranger than realizing a commonly understood and accepted truth is in effect nonsense? Imagine if the Aztecs, who happily sent their young up the pyramid to be horrible killed for a bunch of mythical lizards, realized their sacrifices were for naught. Or imagine the reaction of those that believed the world was flat or perched on the back of a giant turtle if suddenly they were clued in to the fact that our planet is a ball of warm rock travelling at incredible speeds though a huge ancient void filled with stuff thrown out by a giant…
