Conspicuously absent from Biden’s triad of huge reforms—theAmerican Rescue Plan, theAmerican Jobs Planand theAmerican Families Plan—is the health care reform Biden touted as a candidate. Every Democratic presidential candidate in 2020 had an aggressive health care plan, starting with “Medicare for all,” the Bernie Sanders-Elizabeth Warren effort to replace private health insurance with a government program. Biden pointedly rejected that, calling instead for a “public option” that would leave private insurance in place but offer a new government plan for those who couldn’t get decent coverage through an employer.</p>\n<p>There’s a glancing reference to Biden’s public option in the American Families Plan, but there’s no outline of how it would work—as there are for other top priorities—and Biden didn’t mention it in his April 28 address to Congress. Biden is detailing smaller measures: the American Rescue Plan, which Congress passed in March, containsnew health insurance subsidiesfor people who didn’tqualify under the Affordable Care Actbecause they made too much money. Those subsidies were temporary, and Biden wants to make them permanent as part of the families plan. That may help a couple million Americans get more affordable coverage.</p>\n<p>That would still fall far short of the “public option” Biden campaigned on, which would be a government program similar to Medicare for anybody looking for a better deal on insurance, with no age requirement. Anybody could buy into the government plan, which, in theory, would be able to offer competitive rates because of its sheer size. That would put the government plan in direct competition with private insurers, which could be good or bad, depending on your perspective. If the government offered lower rates, then private insurers would have to match them, a boon for consumers. But if people flooded into the government plan, it could destabilize the employer-based insurance system, which generally works, at least for big companies with buying power.</p>\n<p>Establishing a new government health care plan would be a combative undertaking Biden seems willing to put off for anther time. It could disrupt a large segment of the economy more than anything else in Biden’s plans. Bernie Sanders is pushing “Medicare for more” legislationthat would lower the Medicare eligibility age from 65 to 55, similar to Biden’s public option. But that’s unlikely to pass, given lack of enthusiasm among some Democrats, especially in the Senate. Biden might pursue a public option if Democrats maintain or expand their narrow majorities in both houses of Congress in the 2022 midterm elections (which will be tough).</p>\n<p>A second thing missing from Biden’s reform trifecta: any plan to remove the $10,000 cap on state and local tax deductions that went into effect with the Trump tax cut law in 2017. Unlike the public option, Biden never campaigned on restoring the full SALT deduction, as it’s known. But several Democrats from states hurt most by this new limit on tax deductions, such as New York and California, aredemanding a repeal of the limitas a condition of voting for Biden’s favored legislation.</p>\n<p>In late April, a senior White House official told reporters Biden wasn’t pushing for a SALT cap repeal because it would lower federal tax revenue at a time Biden was looking for new sources of revenue to spend on families and children. There’s also the political problem that repealing the SALT cap would mostly benefit high-income taxpayers. It’s possible Congress could include a repeal or partial repeal of the SALT cap in legislation that Biden would sign, as long as it contained other Biden priorities. One way to do it would be to restore the tax deductions but only for people with incomes below a threshold of, say, $400,000.</p>\n<p>A third priority Biden seems lukewarm on: Giving the government the legal power to negotiate prescriptiondrug priceswith manufacturers. Biden does mention this in his families plan, and in his speech to Congress he did call for letting Medicare negotiate directly with drugmakers, which it has never been allowed to do. But as with the public option, the White House has provided no detail of how Biden wants to lower drug prices, which is a likely tell: Biden supports the idea in principle but doesn’t want to get bogged down in that fight right now.</p>\n<p>In 2019, the Democratic Housepassed a bill to let Medicare force down drug prices, which is a likely template for legislation this year. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi haspromoted the legislation. Like the public option, however, this too would be a bloody legislative battle, against the politically powerful and lavishly funded pharmaceutical industry. Biden would probably sign legislation, if Congress could pass it. But Biden may also prefer to put off this battle until the second half of his presidential term—if Democrats can hold onto power in Congress.</p>\n<p>Biden still has a full agenda. His proposals for shifting the economy from carbon energy to renewables are complex and extremely ambitious. At the same time, he’s pushing for the biggest expansion of social welfare programs since Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society agenda of the 1960s. If Biden accomplishes half of what he’s after, it will be a transformational presidency. That should be enough for one year.</p>","source":"yahoofinance_sg","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 things missing from Biden’s extensive plans</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 things missing from Biden’s extensive plans\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-05-05 14:24 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/3-things-missing-from-bidens-extensive-plans-154230168.html?ncid=twitter_yfsocialtw_l1gbd0noiom><strong>Yahoo Finance</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>3 things missing from Biden’s extensive plansRick Newman·Senior ColumnistTue, May 4, 2021, 11:42 PM·5 min read\nPresident Biden wants to change seemingly everything: the government’s role in the ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/3-things-missing-from-bidens-extensive-plans-154230168.html?ncid=twitter_yfsocialtw_l1gbd0noiom\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{},"source_url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/3-things-missing-from-bidens-extensive-plans-154230168.html?ncid=twitter_yfsocialtw_l1gbd0noiom","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1119680465","content_text":"3 things missing from Biden’s extensive plansRick Newman·Senior ColumnistTue, May 4, 2021, 11:42 PM·5 min read\nPresident Biden wants to change seemingly everything: the government’s role in the economy, the way we generate power and move around, the way parents take care of kids, the “caring economy.” Is there anything he’s leaving out?\nActually, yes.

The two will keep working together on philanthropic efforts, which have addressed education, gender equality and health care.\"After a great deal of thought and a lot of work on our relationship, we have made the decision to end our marriage,\" Bill and Melinda Gates wrote in a statement that Bill Gatestweeted out.“Over the last 27 years, we have raised three incredible children and built a foundation that works all over the world to enable all people to lead healthy, productive lives. We continue to share a belief in that mission and will continue our work together at the foundation, but we no longer believe we can grow together as a couple in this next phase of our lives. We ask for space and privacy for our family as we begin to navigate this new life.”The decision reflects a personal change at the top of American business.Bill Gates led Microsoft as CEO from its founding with Paul Allen in 1975 until 2000, leaving Steve Ballmer to run the company, while Bill Gates became chairman and chief software architect. In 2008 Gatesgave up his day-to-day roleat the company to spend more time on the nonprofit Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.Last year Bill Gatesstepped downfrom Microsoft’s board asthe coronavirusbecame a force around the world. He began spending more time on the foundation alongside Melinda Gates. The two are co-chairs and trustees of the foundation, which launched in 2000.Bill and Melinda Gates both worked at Microsoft. She had been a general manager at the software company, where she worked on products such as the Encarta encyclopedia, according to herLinkedIn profile. The two met at a dinner for Microsoft employees in 1987. “It took him quite a few months before he asked me out,” Melinda Gateslater said. Bill Gates hadweighed the pros and cons on a blackboard, and in 1994 the couple were married in Hawaii.Financial details of the Gateses parting ways are not yet clear. Bill Gates owns 1.37% of Microsoft’s outstanding shares, which are worth more than $26 billion, according to FactSet. The couple were creators, along with Warren Buffett, of theGiving Pledge, a program that requires participants to give away more than half of their wealth.At one point the couple decided to move $20 billion worth of Microsoft stock to the foundation as they sought to increase their commitment to philanthropy, Bill Gates wrote in a 2019blog post. Today the foundation has more than $51 billion in assets, according to a tax filing, making itone of the world’s wealthiest foundations.“In the case of Melinda, it is a truly equal partner,” Bill Gates said in the 2019 Netflix documentary “Inside Bill’s Brain.” “She’s a lot like me in that she is optimistic and she is interested in science. She is better with people than I am. She’s a tiny bit less hardcore about knowing, you know, immunology, than I am.”In 2015 the two began pursuing areas they were interested in. Bill Gates established Breakthrough Energy, an initiative to slow climate change that includes a venture arm, and Melinda Gates created Pivotal Ventures, a company that makes investments to foster equality.For Valentine’s Day in 2020, Bill Gates posted a photoon Instagramshowing him standing with his arm around Melinda Gates. “I couldn’t ask for a better partner on this journey,” the caption said.Each year for more than a decade the Gateses have published a letter about their foundation work. In thelatest one, published in January, they reflected on the impact of the pandemic, beyond supporting the development of vaccines. “For us, the days became a blur of video meetings, troubling news alerts, and microwaved meals,” they wrote.Bill Gates is the world’s fourth richest person, behindAmazon’sJeff Bezos, LVMH’s Bernard Arnault and Tesla’s Elon Musk, according toForbes.The announcement comes two years after Bezos said he and his wife, MacKenzie, weregetting divorced. Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos are among the world’s richest people, and Amazon and Microsoft compete in the cloud computing business. Amazon said earlier this year that Bezos would be stepping down from his post as CEO and that cloud chief Andy Jassywould succeed him.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":227,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":108114624,"gmtCreate":1620004667168,"gmtModify":1704337192950,"author":{"id":"3581562091419716","authorId":"3581562091419716","name":"shammm","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d6476fbdd59baef7681530398193031e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581562091419716","authorIdStr":"3581562091419716"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/108114624","repostId":"1197575918","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":168,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":101033347,"gmtCreate":1619829480789,"gmtModify":1704335403894,"author":{"id":"3581562091419716","authorId":"3581562091419716","name":"shammm","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d6476fbdd59baef7681530398193031e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581562091419716","authorIdStr":"3581562091419716"},"themes":[],"htmlText":".&nbsp;","listText":".&nbsp;","text":".","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/101033347","repostId":"1155857726","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1155857726","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1619795809,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1155857726?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-30 23:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Fed's Kaplan sees financial market 'excesses,' eyes QE taper","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1155857726","media":"Reuters","summary":"Dallas Federal Reserve Bank President Robert Kaplan on Friday warned of imbalances in U.S. financial","content":"<p>Dallas Federal Reserve Bank President Robert Kaplan on Friday warned of imbalances in U.S. financial markets and said he now believes the economy will meet the benchmarks the central bank set out for trimming its bond buying sooner than he had anticipated.</p>\n<p>\"We are now at a point where I'm observing excesses and imbalances in financial markets,\" Kaplan told the Montgomery Area Chamber of Commerce, pointing to the elevated stock market, credit spreads, and a \"historically\" robust housing market. \"I do think, at the earliest opportunity, I think it would be appropriate for us to start talking about adjusting those purchases,\" referring to the Fed's $120 billion in monthly bond buys known as quantitative easing, or QE.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Apple said Spotify wants “all the benefits of the App Store but don’t think they should have to pay anything for that,” by choosing to object to its 15-30% commission on in-app payments for streaming apps.\nApple isn’t currently facing any antitrust charges from government officials in the U.S. and such a lawsuit may never materialize, though the Department of Justice wasreportedly granted oversight of the company’s competitive practices in 2019. But even if the government declines to press charges, recent actions in Congress, state legislatures and in private lawsuits demonstrate a significant shift in the American public’s sentiment toward Apple and the tech industry at large.\nWhen the commissionslapped its first record competition fineagainstGooglein 2017, it wasn’t yet clear that the U.S. might be ready to move on from its once-cozy relationship with its booming tech industry. But in 2018, on the heels of the revelations of howFacebookuser data was used by analytics company Cambridge Analytica during the 2016 election, and increasing questions about how tech platforms can impact American democracy, that seemed to change.\nNow, as Europe continues to move forward with its probe into Apple, the U.S. no longer seems to be so far behind.\nHere’s where Apple stands to face risk of antitrust action or regulation in the U.S.:\nDOJ\nThe DOJ has already moved forward with a massive lawsuit against Google, so it could take some time if it decides to ramp up a probe into Apple. Though the DOJ’s Antitrust Division took on oversight authority of Apple in a 2019 agreement with the FTC, according to aWall Street Journal report, the Google investigation has seemed to take priority.\nStill, then-Attorney General Bill Barr announced later that year that the DOJ wouldconduct a broad antitrust review of Big Tech companies.\nAny action from the DOJ or state enforcers would take the form of a settlement or lawsuit, which would put Apple’s fate in the hands of the courts.\nPrivate lawsuits\nApple’s most immediate challenge in the U.S. has come from private companies bringing antitrust charges against its business in court.\nThe most notable of these lawsuits isfrom Fortnite-maker Epic Games, which is set to begin its trial on Monday. Epic filed its lawsuit with a PR blitz afterchallenging Apple’s in-app payment feeby advertising in its app an alternative, cheaper way to buy character outfits from Epic directly, violating Apple’s rules. That prompted Apple to remove Fortnite from its App Store. Epic filed the suit shortly after and Applefiled counterclaimsagainst Epic for allegedly breaching its contract.\n“Although Epic portrays itself as a modern corporate Robin Hood, in reality it is a multi-billion dollar enterprise that simply wants to pay nothing for the tremendous value it derives from the App Store,” Apple said in a filing with the District Court for the Northern District of California in September.\nCongress\nJust last week,several app-makers testified before the Senate Judiciary subcommittee on antitrust about the alleged anti-competitive harms they’ve facedfrom restrictions on both Apple and Google’s app stores.\nRepresentatives from Apple and Google told lawmakers they simply charge for the technology and the work they put into running the app stores, which have significantly lowered distribution costs for app developers over the years.\nBut witnesses from Tinder-ownerMatch Group, item-tracking device-maker Tile and Spotify painted a different picture.\n“We’re all afraid,” Match Group chief legal officer Jared Sine testified of the platforms’ broad power over their businesses.\nThe witnesses discussed the seemingly arbitrary nature by which Apple allegedly enforces its App Store rules. Spotify’s legal chief claimed Apple has threatened retaliation on numerous occasions and Tile’s top lawyer said Apple denied access to a key feature that wouldimprove their object-tracking product, before utilizing it for Apple’s own rival gadget,called AirTag.\nTile said that while Apple now makes the feature available for third-party developers to incorporate, accessing it would mean handing over a significant amount of data and control to Apple. Apple’s representative said its product is different from Tile’s and opening the feature in question will encourage further competition in the space.\nSenators at the hearing seemed receptive to the app developers’ complaints, which build on earlier claims made before House lawmakers. The House Judiciary subcommittee on antitrust found in a more than year-long probe thatAmazon, Apple, Facebook and Googleall hold monopoly power, and lawmakers are currently crafting bills to enable stronger antitrust enforcement of digital markets.\nState Legislatures\nSeveral state legislatures have beenconsidering bills that would require platforms like Apple and Google to allow app-makers to use their own payment processing systems. While the bills have so far hadvarying degrees of successin the early stages of lawmaking, passage in one state could raise a host of questions about how it should be enforced given the ambiguous nature of digital borders.\nThe bills have been supported by the Coalition for App Fairness, a group of companies that have complained about app store fees, including Epic Games, Match Group and Spotify.\nApple has often argued that it maintains features like payments within its own ecosystem in order to protect consumers and secure their data, though app developers and lawmakers have expressed skepticism about that reasoning.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":213,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":106172977,"gmtCreate":1620097497499,"gmtModify":1704338611095,"author":{"id":"3581562091419716","authorId":"3581562091419716","name":"shammm","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d6476fbdd59baef7681530398193031e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581562091419716","authorIdStr":"3581562091419716"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Aw","listText":"Aw","text":"Aw","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/106172977","repostId":"1147234999","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1147234999","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1620086355,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1147234999?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-04 07:59","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Bill Gates and Melinda Gates are splitting up after 27 years","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1147234999","media":"CNBC","summary":"Bill and Melinda Gates met at $Microsoft$, and the two got married in 1994.The couple, who agreed to give away more than half their wealth, will keep working together on charitable efforts.Financial implications are not immediately clear.Bill Gates, co-founder and former CEO ofMicrosoft, and his wife, Melinda French Gates, said on $Twitter$ on Monday that they will split up after 27 years.

The two will keep working together on philanthropic efforts, which have addressed education, gender equality and health care.\"After a great deal of thought and a lot of work on our relationship, we have made the decision to end our marriage,\" Bill and Melinda Gates wrote in a statement that Bill Gatestweeted out.“Over the last 27 years, we have raised three incredible children and built a foundation that works all over the world to enable all people to lead healthy, productive lives. We continue to share a belief in that mission and will continue our work together at the foundation, but we no longer believe we can grow together as a couple in this next phase of our lives. We ask for space and privacy for our family as we begin to navigate this new life.”The decision reflects a personal change at the top of American business.Bill Gates led Microsoft as CEO from its founding with Paul Allen in 1975 until 2000, leaving Steve Ballmer to run the company, while Bill Gates became chairman and chief software architect. In 2008 Gatesgave up his day-to-day roleat the company to spend more time on the nonprofit Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.Last year Bill Gatesstepped downfrom Microsoft’s board asthe coronavirusbecame a force around the world. He began spending more time on the foundation alongside Melinda Gates. The two are co-chairs and trustees of the foundation, which launched in 2000.Bill and Melinda Gates both worked at Microsoft. She had been a general manager at the software company, where she worked on products such as the Encarta encyclopedia, according to herLinkedIn profile. The two met at a dinner for Microsoft employees in 1987. “It took him quite a few months before he asked me out,” Melinda Gateslater said. Bill Gates hadweighed the pros and cons on a blackboard, and in 1994 the couple were married in Hawaii.Financial details of the Gateses parting ways are not yet clear. Bill Gates owns 1.37% of Microsoft’s outstanding shares, which are worth more than $26 billion, according to FactSet. The couple were creators, along with Warren Buffett, of theGiving Pledge, a program that requires participants to give away more than half of their wealth.At one point the couple decided to move $20 billion worth of Microsoft stock to the foundation as they sought to increase their commitment to philanthropy, Bill Gates wrote in a 2019blog post. Today the foundation has more than $51 billion in assets, according to a tax filing, making itone of the world’s wealthiest foundations.“In the case of Melinda, it is a truly equal partner,” Bill Gates said in the 2019 Netflix documentary “Inside Bill’s Brain.” “She’s a lot like me in that she is optimistic and she is interested in science. She is better with people than I am. She’s a tiny bit less hardcore about knowing, you know, immunology, than I am.”In 2015 the two began pursuing areas they were interested in. Bill Gates established Breakthrough Energy, an initiative to slow climate change that includes a venture arm, and Melinda Gates created Pivotal Ventures, a company that makes investments to foster equality.For Valentine’s Day in 2020, Bill Gates posted a photoon Instagramshowing him standing with his arm around Melinda Gates. “I couldn’t ask for a better partner on this journey,” the caption said.Each year for more than a decade the Gateses have published a letter about their foundation work. In thelatest one, published in January, they reflected on the impact of the pandemic, beyond supporting the development of vaccines. “For us, the days became a blur of video meetings, troubling news alerts, and microwaved meals,” they wrote.Bill Gates is the world’s fourth richest person, behindAmazon’sJeff Bezos, LVMH’s Bernard Arnault and Tesla’s Elon Musk, according toForbes.The announcement comes two years after Bezos said he and his wife, MacKenzie, weregetting divorced. Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos are among the world’s richest people, and Amazon and Microsoft compete in the cloud computing business. Amazon said earlier this year that Bezos would be stepping down from his post as CEO and that cloud chief Andy Jassywould succeed him.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":227,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":102824151,"gmtCreate":1620196433773,"gmtModify":1704340067081,"author":{"id":"3581562091419716","authorId":"3581562091419716","name":"shammm","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d6476fbdd59baef7681530398193031e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581562091419716","authorIdStr":"3581562091419716"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like comment pls","listText":"Like comment pls","text":"Like comment pls","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/102824151","repostId":"1119680465","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1119680465","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1620195843,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1119680465?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-05 14:24","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 things missing from Biden’s extensive plans","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1119680465","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"3 things missing from Biden’s extensive plansRick Newman·Senior ColumnistTue, May 4, 2021, 11:42 PM·","content":"<p>3 things missing from Biden’s extensive plansRick Newman·Senior ColumnistTue, May 4, 2021, 11:42 PM·5 min read</p>\n<p>President Biden wants to change seemingly everything: the government’s role in the economy, the way we generate power and move around, the way parents take care of kids, the “caring economy.” Is there anything he’s leaving out?</p>\n<p>Actually, yes. Conspicuously absent from Biden’s triad of huge reforms—theAmerican Rescue Plan, theAmerican Jobs Planand theAmerican Families Plan—is the health care reform Biden touted as a candidate. Every Democratic presidential candidate in 2020 had an aggressive health care plan, starting with “Medicare for all,” the Bernie Sanders-Elizabeth Warren effort to replace private health insurance with a government program. Biden pointedly rejected that, calling instead for a “public option” that would leave private insurance in place but offer a new government plan for those who couldn’t get decent coverage through an employer.</p>\n<p>There’s a glancing reference to Biden’s public option in the American Families Plan, but there’s no outline of how it would work—as there are for other top priorities—and Biden didn’t mention it in his April 28 address to Congress. Biden is detailing smaller measures: the American Rescue Plan, which Congress passed in March, containsnew health insurance subsidiesfor people who didn’tqualify under the Affordable Care Actbecause they made too much money. Those subsidies were temporary, and Biden wants to make them permanent as part of the families plan. That may help a couple million Americans get more affordable coverage.</p>\n<p>That would still fall far short of the “public option” Biden campaigned on, which would be a government program similar to Medicare for anybody looking for a better deal on insurance, with no age requirement. Anybody could buy into the government plan, which, in theory, would be able to offer competitive rates because of its sheer size. That would put the government plan in direct competition with private insurers, which could be good or bad, depending on your perspective. If the government offered lower rates, then private insurers would have to match them, a boon for consumers. But if people flooded into the government plan, it could destabilize the employer-based insurance system, which generally works, at least for big companies with buying power.</p>\n<p>Establishing a new government health care plan would be a combative undertaking Biden seems willing to put off for anther time. It could disrupt a large segment of the economy more than anything else in Biden’s plans. Bernie Sanders is pushing “Medicare for more” legislationthat would lower the Medicare eligibility age from 65 to 55, similar to Biden’s public option. But that’s unlikely to pass, given lack of enthusiasm among some Democrats, especially in the Senate. Biden might pursue a public option if Democrats maintain or expand their narrow majorities in both houses of Congress in the 2022 midterm elections (which will be tough).</p>\n<p>A second thing missing from Biden’s reform trifecta: any plan to remove the $10,000 cap on state and local tax deductions that went into effect with the Trump tax cut law in 2017. Unlike the public option, Biden never campaigned on restoring the full SALT deduction, as it’s known. But several Democrats from states hurt most by this new limit on tax deductions, such as New York and California, aredemanding a repeal of the limitas a condition of voting for Biden’s favored legislation.</p>\n<p>In late April, a senior White House official told reporters Biden wasn’t pushing for a SALT cap repeal because it would lower federal tax revenue at a time Biden was looking for new sources of revenue to spend on families and children. There’s also the political problem that repealing the SALT cap would mostly benefit high-income taxpayers. It’s possible Congress could include a repeal or partial repeal of the SALT cap in legislation that Biden would sign, as long as it contained other Biden priorities. One way to do it would be to restore the tax deductions but only for people with incomes below a threshold of, say, $400,000.</p>\n<p>A third priority Biden seems lukewarm on: Giving the government the legal power to negotiate prescriptiondrug priceswith manufacturers. Biden does mention this in his families plan, and in his speech to Congress he did call for letting Medicare negotiate directly with drugmakers, which it has never been allowed to do. But as with the public option, the White House has provided no detail of how Biden wants to lower drug prices, which is a likely tell: Biden supports the idea in principle but doesn’t want to get bogged down in that fight right now.</p>\n<p>In 2019, the Democratic Housepassed a bill to let Medicare force down drug prices, which is a likely template for legislation this year. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi haspromoted the legislation. Like the public option, however, this too would be a bloody legislative battle, against the politically powerful and lavishly funded pharmaceutical industry. Biden would probably sign legislation, if Congress could pass it. But Biden may also prefer to put off this battle until the second half of his presidential term—if Democrats can hold onto power in Congress.</p>\n<p>Biden still has a full agenda. His proposals for shifting the economy from carbon energy to renewables are complex and extremely ambitious.

Conspicuously absent from Biden’s triad of huge reforms—theAmerican Rescue Plan, theAmerican Jobs Planand theAmerican Families Plan—is the health care reform Biden touted as a candidate. Every Democratic presidential candidate in 2020 had an aggressive health care plan, starting with “Medicare for all,” the Bernie Sanders-Elizabeth Warren effort to replace private health insurance with a government program. Biden pointedly rejected that, calling instead for a “public option” that would leave private insurance in place but offer a new government plan for those who couldn’t get decent coverage through an employer.\nThere’s a glancing reference to Biden’s public option in the American Families Plan, but there’s no outline of how it would work—as there are for other top priorities—and Biden didn’t mention it in his April 28 address to Congress. Biden is detailing smaller measures: the American Rescue Plan, which Congress passed in March, containsnew health insurance subsidiesfor people who didn’tqualify under the Affordable Care Actbecause they made too much money. Those subsidies were temporary, and Biden wants to make them permanent as part of the families plan. That may help a couple million Americans get more affordable coverage.\nThat would still fall far short of the “public option” Biden campaigned on, which would be a government program similar to Medicare for anybody looking for a better deal on insurance, with no age requirement. Anybody could buy into the government plan, which, in theory, would be able to offer competitive rates because of its sheer size. That would put the government plan in direct competition with private insurers, which could be good or bad, depending on your perspective. If the government offered lower rates, then private insurers would have to match them, a boon for consumers. But if people flooded into the government plan, it could destabilize the employer-based insurance system, which generally works, at least for big companies with buying power.\nEstablishing a new government health care plan would be a combative undertaking Biden seems willing to put off for anther time. It could disrupt a large segment of the economy more than anything else in Biden’s plans. Bernie Sanders is pushing “Medicare for more” legislationthat would lower the Medicare eligibility age from 65 to 55, similar to Biden’s public option. But that’s unlikely to pass, given lack of enthusiasm among some Democrats, especially in the Senate. Biden might pursue a public option if Democrats maintain or expand their narrow majorities in both houses of Congress in the 2022 midterm elections (which will be tough).\nA second thing missing from Biden’s reform trifecta: any plan to remove the $10,000 cap on state and local tax deductions that went into effect with the Trump tax cut law in 2017. Unlike the public option, Biden never campaigned on restoring the full SALT deduction, as it’s known. But several Democrats from states hurt most by this new limit on tax deductions, such as New York and California, aredemanding a repeal of the limitas a condition of voting for Biden’s favored legislation.\nIn late April, a senior White House official told reporters Biden wasn’t pushing for a SALT cap repeal because it would lower federal tax revenue at a time Biden was looking for new sources of revenue to spend on families and children. There’s also the political problem that repealing the SALT cap would mostly benefit high-income taxpayers. It’s possible Congress could include a repeal or partial repeal of the SALT cap in legislation that Biden would sign, as long as it contained other Biden priorities. One way to do it would be to restore the tax deductions but only for people with incomes below a threshold of, say, $400,000.\nA third priority Biden seems lukewarm on: Giving the government the legal power to negotiate prescriptiondrug priceswith manufacturers. Biden does mention this in his families plan, and in his speech to Congress he did call for letting Medicare negotiate directly with drugmakers, which it has never been allowed to do. But as with the public option, the White House has provided no detail of how Biden wants to lower drug prices, which is a likely tell: Biden supports the idea in principle but doesn’t want to get bogged down in that fight right now.\nIn 2019, the Democratic Housepassed a bill to let Medicare force down drug prices, which is a likely template for legislation this year. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi haspromoted the legislation. Like the public option, however, this too would be a bloody legislative battle, against the politically powerful and lavishly funded pharmaceutical industry. Biden would probably sign legislation, if Congress could pass it. But Biden may also prefer to put off this battle until the second half of his presidential term—if Democrats can hold onto power in Congress.\nBiden still has a full agenda. His proposals for shifting the economy from carbon energy to renewables are complex and extremely ambitious. At the same time, he’s pushing for the biggest expansion of social welfare programs since Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society agenda of the 1960s. If Biden accomplishes half of what he’s after, it will be a transformational presidency. That should be enough for one year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":260,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":101033347,"gmtCreate":1619829480789,"gmtModify":1704335403894,"author":{"id":"3581562091419716","authorId":"3581562091419716","name":"shammm","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d6476fbdd59baef7681530398193031e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581562091419716","authorIdStr":"3581562091419716"},"themes":[],"htmlText":".&nbsp;","listText":".&nbsp;","text":".","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/101033347","repostId":"1155857726","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1155857726","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1619795809,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1155857726?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-30 23:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Fed's Kaplan sees financial market 'excesses,' eyes QE taper","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1155857726","media":"Reuters","summary":"Dallas Federal Reserve Bank President Robert Kaplan on Friday warned of imbalances in U.S. financial","content":"<p>Dallas Federal Reserve Bank President Robert Kaplan on Friday warned of imbalances in U.S. financial markets and said he now believes the economy will meet the benchmarks the central bank set out for trimming its bond buying sooner than he had anticipated.</p>\n<p>\"We are now at a point where I'm observing excesses and imbalances in financial markets,\" Kaplan told the Montgomery Area Chamber of Commerce, pointing to the elevated stock market, credit spreads, and a \"historically\" robust housing market. \"I do think, at the earliest opportunity, I think it would be appropriate for us to start talking about adjusting those purchases,\" referring to the Fed's $120 billion in monthly bond buys known as quantitative easing, or QE.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

But among t","content":"<p>Some Robinhood traders looking for what to buy in May might be planning to sell by June. But among the favorite stocks of users of the app are some that should be good investments to hold for many years.</p><p>Owning the names on this list isn't for the faint of heart. But many Robinhood investors like aggressive investments, and the list of the most popular names on the app is crowded with risky stocks. The following companies -- on the list when I checked -- are in three different fast-growing sectors, and each could have a very promising road ahead.</p><p>Tilray: A transformative merger</p><p>Canadian cannabis company<b>Tilray</b>(NASDAQ:TLRY)is a top Robinhood name that is combining with another of the app users' favorites. Shareholders have approved a merger with<b>Aphria</b>(NASDAQ:APHA)and the newly combined company will take the Tilray name. The new Tilray, which will be one of the largest global cannabis companies, will be led by Aphria CEO Irwin Simon.</p><p>The deal gives investors an opportunity to own a single cannabis company with strong growth prospects in markets outside of Canada. Tilray has been growing internationally in Europe and beyond. It announced a new distribution agreement with U.K. medical cannabis distributor Grow Pharma under which Tilray's pharmaceutical-grade medical cannabis products will be imported and distributed by Grow Pharma in the U.K.&nbsp;Separately, it announced it had exported its first medical cannabis shipment to Spain, and had received the first and only market authorization for medical cannabis products in Portugal. In March, it also received approval from authorities in New Zealand to launch its medical cannabis products across the country.</p><p>Aphria also has been working on plans to grow outside of Canada. Last year, it bought U.S.-based craft brewer SweetWater Brewing for $300 million as part of a strategy to prepare for potentialfederal marijuana legalizationin the U.S. At the time of the acquisition, Simon said the deal was done for the purposes of \"expanding our addressable market and leveraging SweetWater's existing infrastructure to accelerate Aphria's entry into the U.S. ahead of federal legalization of cannabis.\" There's no guarantee that federal legalization will ever happen, but there has been growing momentum, with Virginia recently becoming the 16th state to legalize recreational marijuana, along with Washington D.C.</p><p>In its recentfiscal third-quarter earnings call, Aphria told investors that as of the period ended Feb. 28, it was the top licensed producer in Canada,&nbsp;with an overall national market share of 12.1%. Tilray's 2020 revenue grew 26% over 2019. Combining those businesses gives investors a well-rounded way to invest in the cannabis sector.</p><p>NIO: A massive market opportunity</p><p>There is huge potential for growth in theelectric vehicle(EV) sector. Chinese EV maker<b>NIO</b>(NYSE:NIO)is a leader in the world's largest automotive market. There will be plenty of competition, but the company's sales are growing quickly, and it has begun construction on a new manufacturing facility.</p><p>NIO delivered 20,060 vehiclesin a strong first quarter, a jump of over 400% from the prior-year period. Deliveries in April 2021 grew 125% over last year's April shipments and this speed bump in growing sales has been a factor in the recent decline in the stock price. In late March, the company told investors it is being affected by the global semiconductor shortage -- a headwind being felt by many automakers. It resulted in a five-day suspension in operations that resulted in several days of April production being lost. NIO founder, chairman, and CEO William Li expanded on that topic during the company'sfirst-quarter conference call&nbsp;last week. Li said the company now expects the supply chain problems will \"continue to linger.\"</p><p>NIO has several things investors should be excited about. Its new ET7 luxury sedan that will be available early next year expands its offerings beyond its current SUV designs. It is also expanding anetwork of battery swap and recharging stationsthat should help demand grow throughout the country, and bring NIO a growing income stream from the service. And NIO plans to expand beyond China. It recntly announcedan upcoming news conferencewhere it will detail plans to enter the European market, beginning with Norway.</p><p>NIO is still growing toward profitability and is worth a look for investors comfortable with risk as the EV market is expected to soar. Only 1.7 million EVs were sold in 2020, but industry research provider BloombergNEF expects that will reach 26 million by 2030, and more than double from there over the following 10 years.</p><p>Peloton: Keeping up with demand</p><p>At-home exercise equipment maker<b>Peloton Interactive</b>(NASDAQ:PTON)reported its 2021 fiscal second-quarter financial results in February, with total quarterly revenue surpassing $1 billion for the first time. That was a 128% year-over-year jump. The company also updated investors on a big problem -- addressing long order-to-delivery times. For investors, that can be a good problem to have, highlighting the popularity of the company's bike and treadmill products.</p><p>One way Peloton responded was to acquire commercial fitness equipment provider Precor. In addition to bringing Peloton into the non-residential side of the market with customers including fitness clubs, hotels, and corporate facilities, it also brought what the company calls \"a significant U.S. manufacturing presence.\" Peloton had already been growing its global manufacturing output, and is in the process of ramping up production at a new factory in Taiwan. The company believes that the combination of added production and easing of supply chain disruptions caused by the pandemic will allow it improve its delivery backlog in the coming months.</p><p>Recent negative publicity surrounding accidents involving the company's treadmills has contributed to a stock price decline. Investors should hear more about deliveries and the safety concern whenPeloton reports its fiscal third quarter2021 earnings on May 6.

But among the favorite stocks of users of the app are some that should be good investments to hold for many years.Owning the names on this list isn't for the faint of heart. But many Robinhood investors like aggressive investments, and the list of the most popular names on the app is crowded with risky stocks. The following companies -- on the list when I checked -- are in three different fast-growing sectors, and each could have a very promising road ahead.Tilray: A transformative mergerCanadian cannabis companyTilray(NASDAQ:TLRY)is a top Robinhood name that is combining with another of the app users' favorites. Shareholders have approved a merger withAphria(NASDAQ:APHA)and the newly combined company will take the Tilray name. The new Tilray, which will be one of the largest global cannabis companies, will be led by Aphria CEO Irwin Simon.The deal gives investors an opportunity to own a single cannabis company with strong growth prospects in markets outside of Canada. Tilray has been growing internationally in Europe and beyond. It announced a new distribution agreement with U.K. medical cannabis distributor Grow Pharma under which Tilray's pharmaceutical-grade medical cannabis products will be imported and distributed by Grow Pharma in the U.K. Separately, it announced it had exported its first medical cannabis shipment to Spain, and had received the first and only market authorization for medical cannabis products in Portugal. In March, it also received approval from authorities in New Zealand to launch its medical cannabis products across the country.Aphria also has been working on plans to grow outside of Canada. Last year, it bought U.S.-based craft brewer SweetWater Brewing for $300 million as part of a strategy to prepare for potentialfederal marijuana legalizationin the U.S. At the time of the acquisition, Simon said the deal was done for the purposes of \"expanding our addressable market and leveraging SweetWater's existing infrastructure to accelerate Aphria's entry into the U.S. ahead of federal legalization of cannabis.\" There's no guarantee that federal legalization will ever happen, but there has been growing momentum, with Virginia recently becoming the 16th state to legalize recreational marijuana, along with Washington D.C.In its recentfiscal third-quarter earnings call, Aphria told investors that as of the period ended Feb. 28, it was the top licensed producer in Canada, with an overall national market share of 12.1%. Tilray's 2020 revenue grew 26% over 2019. Combining those businesses gives investors a well-rounded way to invest in the cannabis sector.NIO: A massive market opportunityThere is huge potential for growth in theelectric vehicle(EV) sector. Chinese EV makerNIO(NYSE:NIO)is a leader in the world's largest automotive market. There will be plenty of competition, but the company's sales are growing quickly, and it has begun construction on a new manufacturing facility.NIO delivered 20,060 vehiclesin a strong first quarter, a jump of over 400% from the prior-year period. Deliveries in April 2021 grew 125% over last year's April shipments and this speed bump in growing sales has been a factor in the recent decline in the stock price. In late March, the company told investors it is being affected by the global semiconductor shortage -- a headwind being felt by many automakers. It resulted in a five-day suspension in operations that resulted in several days of April production being lost. NIO founder, chairman, and CEO William Li expanded on that topic during the company'sfirst-quarter conference call last week. Li said the company now expects the supply chain problems will \"continue to linger.\"NIO has several things investors should be excited about. Its new ET7 luxury sedan that will be available early next year expands its offerings beyond its current SUV designs. It is also expanding anetwork of battery swap and recharging stationsthat should help demand grow throughout the country, and bring NIO a growing income stream from the service. And NIO plans to expand beyond China. It recntly announcedan upcoming news conferencewhere it will detail plans to enter the European market, beginning with Norway.NIO is still growing toward profitability and is worth a look for investors comfortable with risk as the EV market is expected to soar. Only 1.7 million EVs were sold in 2020, but industry research provider BloombergNEF expects that will reach 26 million by 2030, and more than double from there over the following 10 years.Peloton: Keeping up with demandAt-home exercise equipment makerPeloton Interactive(NASDAQ:PTON)reported its 2021 fiscal second-quarter financial results in February, with total quarterly revenue surpassing $1 billion for the first time. That was a 128% year-over-year jump. The company also updated investors on a big problem -- addressing long order-to-delivery times. For investors, that can be a good problem to have, highlighting the popularity of the company's bike and treadmill products.One way Peloton responded was to acquire commercial fitness equipment provider Precor. In addition to bringing Peloton into the non-residential side of the market with customers including fitness clubs, hotels, and corporate facilities, it also brought what the company calls \"a significant U.S. manufacturing presence.\" Peloton had already been growing its global manufacturing output, and is in the process of ramping up production at a new factory in Taiwan. The company believes that the combination of added production and easing of supply chain disruptions caused by the pandemic will allow it improve its delivery backlog in the coming months.Recent negative publicity surrounding accidents involving the company's treadmills has contributed to a stock price decline. Investors should hear more about deliveries and the safety concern whenPeloton reports its fiscal third quarter2021 earnings on May 6. If the company continues to improve the delivery time frame and demand remains high, today'sprice-to-sales ratioof about 10 makes for a reasonable entry point for those willing to wait for the growth story to play out.Why to buy nowEach of these companies has a compelling growth story, but each also comes with notable risks. For various reasons, the stocks have all declined at least 20% over the past two months, which could make for an attractive buy-in price.Robinhood investors have these stocks among the list of favorites for good reason. For those with the right risk tolerance and time frame, they provide a diverse mix with the potential for high growth for years to come.Should you invest $1,000 in NIO Inc. right now?Before you consider NIO Inc., you'll want to hear this.Investing legends and Motley Fool Co-founders David and Tom Gardner just revealed what they believe are the10 best stocksfor investors to buy right now... and NIO Inc. wasn't one of them.The online investing service they've run for nearly two decades,Motley Fool Stock Advisor, has beaten the stock market by over 4X.* And right now, they think there are 10 stocks that are better buys.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":137,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":108114624,"gmtCreate":1620004667168,"gmtModify":1704337192950,"author":{"id":"3581562091419716","authorId":"3581562091419716","name":"shammm","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d6476fbdd59baef7681530398193031e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581562091419716","authorIdStr":"3581562091419716"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/108114624","repostId":"1197575918","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":168,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":101094534,"gmtCreate":1619829267028,"gmtModify":1704335399278,"author":{"id":"3581562091419716","authorId":"3581562091419716","name":"shammm","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d6476fbdd59baef7681530398193031e","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581562091419716","authorIdStr":"3581562091419716"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/101094534","repostId":"1142063705","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1142063705","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1619796118,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1142063705?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-30 23:21","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Europe's antitrust crackdown on Apple hints at what's coming for the company in the U.S.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1142063705","media":"CNBC","summary":"For a long time, the European Commission seemed to stand apart from the U.S. in cracking down on tech giants with antitrust fines againstGoogleand privacy rules like the General Data Protection Regulation.“The Commission’s argument onSpotify’sbehalf is the opposite of fair competition,” Apple said in a statement following Vestager’s announcement, referring to the music streaming company that raised the competition complaint.

Apple said Spotify wants “all the benefits of the App Store but don’t think they should have to pay anything for that,” by choosing to object to its 15-30% commission on in-app payments for streaming apps.\nApple isn’t currently facing any antitrust charges from government officials in the U.S. and such a lawsuit may never materialize, though the Department of Justice wasreportedly granted oversight of the company’s competitive practices in 2019. But even if the government declines to press charges, recent actions in Congress, state legislatures and in private lawsuits demonstrate a significant shift in the American public’s sentiment toward Apple and the tech industry at large.\nWhen the commissionslapped its first record competition fineagainstGooglein 2017, it wasn’t yet clear that the U.S. might be ready to move on from its once-cozy relationship with its booming tech industry. But in 2018, on the heels of the revelations of howFacebookuser data was used by analytics company Cambridge Analytica during the 2016 election, and increasing questions about how tech platforms can impact American democracy, that seemed to change.\nNow, as Europe continues to move forward with its probe into Apple, the U.S. no longer seems to be so far behind.\nHere’s where Apple stands to face risk of antitrust action or regulation in the U.S.:\nDOJ\nThe DOJ has already moved forward with a massive lawsuit against Google, so it could take some time if it decides to ramp up a probe into Apple. Though the DOJ’s Antitrust Division took on oversight authority of Apple in a 2019 agreement with the FTC, according to aWall Street Journal report, the Google investigation has seemed to take priority.\nStill, then-Attorney General Bill Barr announced later that year that the DOJ wouldconduct a broad antitrust review of Big Tech companies.\nAny action from the DOJ or state enforcers would take the form of a settlement or lawsuit, which would put Apple’s fate in the hands of the courts.\nPrivate lawsuits\nApple’s most immediate challenge in the U.S. has come from private companies bringing antitrust charges against its business in court.\nThe most notable of these lawsuits isfrom Fortnite-maker Epic Games, which is set to begin its trial on Monday. Epic filed its lawsuit with a PR blitz afterchallenging Apple’s in-app payment feeby advertising in its app an alternative, cheaper way to buy character outfits from Epic directly, violating Apple’s rules. That prompted Apple to remove Fortnite from its App Store. Epic filed the suit shortly after and Applefiled counterclaimsagainst Epic for allegedly breaching its contract.\n“Although Epic portrays itself as a modern corporate Robin Hood, in reality it is a multi-billion dollar enterprise that simply wants to pay nothing for the tremendous value it derives from the App Store,” Apple said in a filing with the District Court for the Northern District of California in September.\nCongress\nJust last week,several app-makers testified before the Senate Judiciary subcommittee on antitrust about the alleged anti-competitive harms they’ve facedfrom restrictions on both Apple and Google’s app stores.\nRepresentatives from Apple and Google told lawmakers they simply charge for the technology and the work they put into running the app stores, which have significantly lowered distribution costs for app developers over the years.\nBut witnesses from Tinder-ownerMatch Group, item-tracking device-maker Tile and Spotify painted a different picture.\n“We’re all afraid,” Match Group chief legal officer Jared Sine testified of the platforms’ broad power over their businesses.\nThe witnesses discussed the seemingly arbitrary nature by which Apple allegedly enforces its App Store rules. Spotify’s legal chief claimed Apple has threatened retaliation on numerous occasions and Tile’s top lawyer said Apple denied access to a key feature that wouldimprove their object-tracking product, before utilizing it for Apple’s own rival gadget,called AirTag.\nTile said that while Apple now makes the feature available for third-party developers to incorporate, accessing it would mean handing over a significant amount of data and control to Apple. Apple’s representative said its product is different from Tile’s and opening the feature in question will encourage further competition in the space.\nSenators at the hearing seemed receptive to the app developers’ complaints, which build on earlier claims made before House lawmakers. The House Judiciary subcommittee on antitrust found in a more than year-long probe thatAmazon, Apple, Facebook and Googleall hold monopoly power, and lawmakers are currently crafting bills to enable stronger antitrust enforcement of digital markets.\nState Legislatures\nSeveral state legislatures have beenconsidering bills that would require platforms like Apple and Google to allow app-makers to use their own payment processing systems. While the bills have so far hadvarying degrees of successin the early stages of lawmaking, passage in one state could raise a host of questions about how it should be enforced given the ambiguous nature of digital borders.\nThe bills have been supported by the Coalition for App Fairness, a group of companies that have complained about app store fees, including Epic Games, Match Group and Spotify.\nApple has often argued that it maintains features like payments within its own ecosystem in order to protect consumers and secure their data, though app developers and lawmakers have expressed skepticism about that reasoning.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":213,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
