Can Elon Musk do for TikTok what he did for Twitter (kill it)??? www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
Under one scenario that’s been discussed by the Chinese government, Musk’s X — the former Twitter — would take control of TikTok US and run the businesses together, the people said. With more than 170 million users in the US, TikTok could bolster X’s efforts to attract advertisers. Musk also founded a separate artificial intelligence company, xAI, that could benefit from the huge amounts of data generated from TikTok.

There was a time when France was competing with Germany to be the benchmark for bonds in the eurozone (EIB traded against French OATs, for example).

Now it's essentially a risk asset. (The Greece recovery is the flipside of this of course.)

yes and there’s congress and the courts and even if they’re compliant this things can still be time consuming and hard to pull off. And it’s the work of an opposition to make it as hard and time consuming as possible. And make the consequences visible, not stick to this knowing cynicism.
