Tesla is far from alone in flashing the “death cross.” The S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 both showed it as well on Monday, as the indexes continue to fluctuate in wild and somewhat unpredictable ways thanks to the endless uncertainty that the Trump administration has introduced to the market through its blanket tariffs and “will they, won’t they” exceptions that keep getting tacked on and taken off.

An individual stock hitting this point doesn't really seem like that big a deal when indexes are getting there.

From the article:

In bankruptcy and receivership cases, cash-strapped companies can opt not to pay severance, forcing laid-off workers to make claims as unsecured creditors — which will likely result in pennies on the dollar.

The offer might have gone over slightly better if the US Secretary of Defense hadn't already ruled out NATO membership and a return to Ukraine's 2014 borders.

There's also Dead or Alive Xtreme 3, which has all that plus pole dancing scenes and VR support.

Leopards are going to eat better than those people over the next four years.

The article says they're treating this as an illegal lottery; maybe the state's voter bribery laws don't cover this particular scheme and the lawsuit is plan B.

Hundreds of billions just to do the deportations, and then there's the cost to the economy:

One study found that Obama's Secure Communities program, which deported nearly half a million undocumented immigrants, not only pulled those immigrants from the workforce but had a ripple effect of decreasing the employment and hourly wages of U.S.-born people as well. Scaling their findings, the researchers estimated that for every 1 million unauthorized workers deported, 88,000 native-born jobs would be lost.

An analysis from the nonpartisan Peterson Institute for International Economics released last month reached similar conclusions. Researchers found that a mass deportation of even just 1.3 million undocumented immigrants would lower GDP and reduce employment in the U.S. by 0.8% by 2028. A larger mass deportation of over 8 million immigrants would have a larger effect, lowering employment to 5.1% below the current baseline.

Undocumented immigrants also paid $59.4 billion in federal taxes and $37.3 billion to state and local taxes, according to a study by the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy. More than a third of those went to Medicaid, Social Security and unemployment insurance.

The update is pretty important:

Update, July 5, 1:50 p.m. PT: Apple has told IGN that it has now approved the Epic Sweden AB Marketplace app, and that it's asked Epic to fix the appearance similarity issue in a future submission. Epic Games confirmed this with an update on its X/Twitter account, which you can see below.

This isn't some random developer, it's a developer that has already breached a contract with Apple. It's reasonable for Apple to be wary of entering into another contract with them when the CEO is publicly complaining about the terms.

There's definitely a case to be made that Epic shouldn't need an Apple developer account to make their own app store, but Apple is well within its rights to deny them an account based on their history.

Jeez, my Razer mouse only launches the installer for their crap, it doesn't automatically do the installation.

I guess buying that online news law hasn't been a great investment for Murdoch.
