Month after announcing the disappointing subscriber growth slowdown in more than a decade, Netflix lays off about 150 employees. The cuts represent 2 per cent of the streamer’s total workforce, with most of the cuts made in the United States. 
According to reports, the layoffs come across departments and are driven by the need to reduce expenses rather than the performance of individual employees. In addition to the layoff of 150 full-time employees, Netflix is eliminating about 70 part-time jobs in its animation studio and is also cutting freelance roles in its social media and publishing group. The new round of cuts comes less than a month after multiple full-time staff and contractors in Netflix’s editorial and marketing division were laid off.
In April, during its first-quarter earnings announcement, Netflix revealed it had lost 200,000 subscribers in the quarter and expected to lose an additional 2 million during the second quarter.

Bots or Bills, what is really giving Musk second thoughts about Twitter

Pressure will mount on Musk to monetise Twitter as deal brings with it $1 billion interest expense to the social media platform

From poop-slinging to cocky responses, the repartee&nbsp;on Twitter from Elon&nbsp;Musk is casting a doubt on whether this eccentric billionaire will actually buy the social media platform.&nbsp; The War on Bots
Earlier, Musk replied with a poop emoji&nbsp;after Twitter CEO&nbsp;Parag&nbsp;Agrawal&nbsp;in a tweet thread mentioned that it would be difficult to conduct an external audit on the platform's spam accounts. Musk and Agrawal&nbsp;have been in a wrangle lately as the Tesla CEO&nbsp;expresses his doubts over the success of the deal if Twitter fails to provide proof of spam accounts.

Underpinning the deal is a $13 billion debt bill that&rsquo;s looking like a bigger burden by the day.&nbsp;Twitter&rsquo;s annual interest expense to around $900 million, while Bloomberg Intelligence sees $750 million to $1 billion.
With numbers like those, Twitter looks poised to burn cash, boosting the pressure on Musk to transform the company by finding new sources of revenue and slashing costs.
Musk wanted to eliminate spam Twitter accounts
Well, one must remember that Musk offered to buy the social media giant for $44 billion as he decided to eliminate bots from Twitter. Even after buying the largest stake in the company, Musk tweeted, "If our Twitter bid succeeds, we will defeat the spam bots or die trying!&rdquo;
So, now the question arises, if he already knew about the problem of bots -- and Twitter has always said the real number could be higher even though their best estimate calculated it to be sub-5 percent&nbsp;-- then why didn't the eccentric billion do the due diligence before announcing the deal.

We must also look at the deal offer which was made at $54.20 per share. Since then the prices of tech companies have corrected sharply and hence a $54 per share seems like a significantly premium offer for a share that has already been trading at $38.

''It will be bad without McDonald's. I celebrated all of my birthdays here during the 1990s'', that's what a Moscow resident had to say ahead of McDonald's nationwide exit. More than three decades after it became the first American fast food restaurant to open in the Soviet Union, McDonald's is selling its business to a Russian fast-food chain called Uncle Vanya, another symbol of the country’s increasing isolation over its war in Ukraine.
The Chicago burger giant confirmed that it is selling its 850 restaurants in Russia. McDonald's said it will seek a buyer who will employ its 62,000 workers in Russia, and will continue to pay those workers until the deal closes.
McDonald's said in early March that it was temporarily closing its stores in Russia but would continue to pay its employees. It was a costly decision. Late last month, the company said it was losing $55 million each month due to the restaurant closures. It also lost $100 million worth of inventory.Western companies have wrestled with extricating themselves from Russia, enduring the hit to their bottom lines from pausing or closing operations in the face of sanctions.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Tuesday said his deal to buy Twitter can't move forward unless the company shows public proof that less than 5 percent of the accounts on the platform are fake or spam.
Musk made the comment in a reply to another user on Twitter early Tuesday.
In his tweet, Musk said, “20 percent fake/spam accounts, while 4 times what Twitter claims, could be much higher. My offer was based on Twitter's SEC filings being accurate. Yesterday, Twitter's CEO publicly refused to show proof of 5 percent. This deal cannot move forward until he does.”
At a Miami technology conference Monday, Musk estimated that at least 20 percent of Twitter's 229 million accounts are spam bots, a percentage he said was at the low end of his assessment, according to a Bloomberg News report.
Also at the All In Summit, Musk gave the strongest hint yet that he would like to pay less for Twitter than his $44 billion offer made last month. Musk had earlier said a viable deal at a lower price would not be out of the question, according to the report by Bloomberg.
He spent much of the previous day in a back-and-forth with Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal, who posted a series of tweets explaining his company's effort to fight bots and how it has consistently estimated that less than 5 percent of Twitter accounts are fake.

Russian state media reported Wednesday that the U.S. tech company's Russian subsidiary, Google LLC, submitted a notice of its intention to declare bankruptcy to a national registry, Fedresurs.
The company said in a press statement that it filed for bankruptcy because the “Russian authorities' seizure of Google Russia's bank account has made it untenable for our Russia office to function, including employing and paying Russia-based employees, paying suppliers and vendors, and meeting other financial obligations.”
Google, which had previously suspended its business operations in Russia, said it would continue to provide its free services there, including Search, YouTube, Gmail, Maps, its Android operating system and its Play app store.

Let's see what they are:
1. Buckingham Palace might not be put up for sale anytime soon but, if it was, it would be worth around $6.7 billion dollars. With 240 bedrooms as well as a swimming pool and doctor’s surgery, it’s a place called home by the British Royal Family and is also open to the public for guided tours. 
In total, this rich house—if you can call it a mere house—contains 775 rooms: 19 state rooms, 92 offices, and 78 bathrooms. It’s also got a huge team of staff as well as beautiful gardens. Rumour has it, there are a few other secret rooms dotted throughout this huge luxury mansion.
2. In 1964, the 250 GTO won the Tour de France Automobile – marking the ninth year in a row that Ferrari won that race. Only 36 of these cars were made between 1962 and 1963; the specific Ferrari that’s the most expensive in the world, at an unbelievable $70,000,000 price point, was victorious not only in the Tour de France, but it also placed in the Le Mans.
With a top speed of 174 miles per hour and an acceleration of 0-60 mph (0-100 km/h) in 6.1 seconds, its stats wouldn’t stand up to the hypercars of the modern day. However, in the ‘60s, it was the fastest in the world – and, now, decades later, it remains the most expensive car in the world of all time by a long shot.
3.Graff Diamonds Hallucination
The most expensive watch ever made is another Graff Diamonds creation. The Hallucination is, as the name suggests, truly breathtaking and brilliantly fantastical. 
Featuring a kaleidoscopic array of 110 carats of different coloured diamonds in a range of different cuts, set into a platinum bracelet, The Hallucination brings high-fashion to the world of horlogerie.
4. The Hope Diamond The most expensive and perhaps the most famous jewel in the world is a 45.52 carat blue stone known as the Hope Diamond. Believed to have been discovered in India in the 1600s, the Hope Diamond was bought by King Louis XIV in 1668. This $250 million worth carat Fancy Dark Gray-Blue antique cushion cut diamond was later stolen during a crown jewel looting in 1791 but resurfaced in London in 1839.

World's costliest: House, Car, Watch, Jewellery Piece, Painting 

From the priciest house to the costliest painting and beyond, here are 5 such things that you might never be able to afford in this lifetime, and if you're able to afford, you might not see the value in the price tag

From the priciest house to the costliest painting and beyond, here are 5 such things that you might never be able to afford in this lifetime

At a time when lemons and tomatoes are making it on the list of expensive items we look at some of the priciest things money can buy!&nbsp; World's most expensive home:&nbsp;Buckingham Palace&nbsp; You may not see a "For Sale" sign on this London property but home to the British Monarch is valued at $6.7 billion dollars. This 775 room&nbsp;palace has served as the monarchy's headquarter&nbsp;since 1837. Spread across 39 acres, the residence has everything it needs to be its own self-sufficient village, including a post office, movie theatre, police station and clinic.

Zooming in with a $70 million price tag is the ultimate collectible car -&nbsp;Ferrari 250 GTO&nbsp;also dubbed "Il Mostro&rdquo;&mdash;the monster. With only 36 of these cars ever manufactured, it calls for top billing at an auction as a nine-time in a row winner of the&nbsp;Tour de France. With a top speed of 174 miles per hour it is definitely not the fastest but remains the costliest car by a mile and yes they are still in running condition.&nbsp; World's most expensive watch:&nbsp;Graff Diamonds Hallucination
Even if your eyes are able to handle the sparkle, the price tag will surely blind you. The&nbsp;Graff Diamonds Hallucination clocks in with a price of $55 million and can be considered more a piece of jewellery with 110 carats of different coloured diamonds in a range of different cuts, set into a platinum bracelet. But if one had to evaluate the worth of a watch for just its making and brand then the&nbsp; Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime commands pole position; worth a whopping $31 million. 
World's most expensive jewellery:&nbsp;The&nbsp;Hope Diamond The Hope Diamond is a 45.52-carat diamond originally extracted in the 17th century from the Kollur Mine in Guntur&nbsp;and&nbsp;was bought by King Louis XIV in 1668. This $250 million worth carat Fancy Dark Gray-Blue antique cushion cut diamond was later stolen during a crown jewel looting in 1791 but resurfaced in London in 1839.&nbsp;According to the legend, there is a curse that comes with the glitter,&nbsp;a curse that foretold bad luck and death not only for the owner of the diamond but for all who touched it.
World's most expensive painting:&nbsp;Salvator Mundi The image of Christ as The Saviour of the World was billed as the Last da Vinci&nbsp;at Christie's 2017 and broke all&nbsp;records when it was bought for $450 million in 2017 by the Saudi Royal family. Not been seen in public since then but it remains in the news as art connoisseurs continue to debate if the&nbsp;Salvator Mundi&nbsp;is indeed a work by the master or just his assistants. In an era where digital art and Beeple's make headlines, Da Vinci&nbsp;still remains the holy grail for collectors.&nbsp;

"ESG is an outrageous scam! Shame on S&P Global," Tesla CEO Elon Musk tweeted as the EV giant out kicked off the S&P500's green and clean ESG index. Here is what happened-:
The S&P Global did it's fourth annual rebalance of the sustainably focused, large-cap index this week and Elon Musk's Tesla - the world's largest EV maker got booted off the index. Tesla the the fifth largest holding in the S&P 500, was deemed ineligible as it found itself out along with Berkshire Hathaway, Johnson & Johnson, and Meta Platforms but oddly making it on the sustainable list is oil major Exxon Exxon is rated top ten best in world for environment, social & governance (ESG) by S&P 500, while Tesla didn't make the list. ESG is a scam. It has been weaponised by phony social justice warriors," Musk added.S&P Global's ration was that while Tesla's ESG score has remained fairly stable year-over-year, it was pushed further down the ranks relative to its global industry group peers." So Tesla is green but some of the other manufacturers are getting greener. But casting a shade of grey on the ratings is also Tesla's treatment of worker says the global index creator. 
"A media and stakeholder analysis identified two separate events centered around claims of racial discrimination and poor working conditions at Tesla's Fremont factory, as well as its handling of the NHTSA investigation after multiple deaths and injuries were linked to its autopilot vehicles," S&P Global said.
Those events led to a lower ESG score for Tesla, leading to its elimination from the index.

Ever heard of anything called Zacobite? Well, none had until this company got into a contract of selling something that doesn't even exist. Yes, that's true.
On July 13, 2019, Urja Global made an announcement that it entered into an agreement with Japan-based Nippon Shinyaku for the supply of Zacobite for five years. The cost of procurement was stated at $65.5 million with Urja making a 10 percent profit.
However, a search of websites of Urja Global and Nippon Shinyaku by SEBI failed to show any mention of the word 'Zacobite'. Urja Global did not give SEBI any information about the product Zacobite based on either its own research or its past experience in dealing with Zacobite.
No information regarding Zacobite was found to be available in publicly available sources. A Google search for the term Zacobite did not return any significant result. There was no information on the internet or otherwise regarding the material or element Zacobite and its uses.
However, the only reality was a significant increase in Urja Global’s share price. Its stock rose from Rs 2.2 to Rs 3.1 after the company made the announcement of deal. Volumes rose from as low as 73,000 on July 11, 2019 to 93 lakh on July 16, 2019.
While the Japanese company has denied signing any such deal with Urja Global.
Urja Global submitted that it had fallen victim to a fraud committed by certain persons impersonating as representatives of Nippon. While the SEBI noted that the company had actively connived with such persons to create an artificial situation for making the corporate announcement dated July 13, 2019, which was false, misleading and inaccurate.
The securities market regulator has banned Urja and four of its executives from the markets for two years.
