[QUOTE="Jaysen, post: 142840, member: 1"] A few recent stories that caught my eye: 1. The UK's competition regulator (the CMA) [URL='https://www.theverge.com/2023/5/1/23702716/microsoft-activision-blizzard-uk-deal-what-happens-next']blocked[/URL] Microsoft's attempted acquisition of Activision Blizzard. The concern centres on the future of cloud gaming if Microsoft made some of the Activision titles exclusive to its cloud service. 2. JP Morgan bought First Republic, another bank that collapsed following SVB. The bank had been [URL='https://www.ft.com/content/0c61a540-e6be-4bca-8054-841d9983756b']squeezed[/URL] by rising interest rates and high outflows (customers withdrawing their money). -- I'd recommend the FT news briefing as a basic way to stay up to date with the financial news of the day. It's only 10 minutes and can be easily turned into a habit (e.g. listening to it as you're getting ready in the morning). Curious to know if anyone recommends any other podcasts? [/QUOTE]
