According to data from the central bank this week, GDP contracted 0.5% year over year in the first quarter, far below projections for 1.6% growth, due in part to an increase in the value-added tax the Kremlin imposed to pay for its war on Ukraine.

Originally published by Yahoo Finance Business

General Motors (GM) has reached a privacy-related settlement with a group of law enforcement agencies led by California Attorney General Rob Bonta.

Back in 2024, The New York Timesreportedthat automakers including GM were sharing information about their customers’ driving behavior with insurance companies, and that some customers were concerned that their insurance rates had gone up as a result.

The settlement announcementfrom Bonta’s office similarly alleges that GM sold “the names, contact information, geolocation data, and driving behavior data of hundreds of thousands of Californians” to Verisk Analytics and LexisNexis Risk Solutions, which are both data brokers. Bonta’s office further alleges that this data was collected through GM’s OnStar program, and that the company made roughly $20 million from data sales.

Jim Cramer on Meta: “I Think It’s Time to Stop Worrying and Start Buying”

Originally published by Yahoo Finance Business

Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) is one of thestocks Jim Cramer shared his thoughts on as he discussed Big Tech’s AI spending. Cramer highlighted the company’s growth, as he commented:

This morning on Squawk on the Street, I said something I kind of want to take back. I was being smarmy about Meta Platforms, saying they didn’t have the horses, and the stock had become a source of funds. That’s the kind of thing you sell so you can swap into something better. It’s one of the worst things you can say about a publicly traded company… After the show, I was reminded that Meta had 33% growth in the last quarter. That was the fastest pace in five years. That last great growth quarter, by the way, was from 2021, when the company had $29 billion in revenues. Now it’s $56 billion, yet they’ve got nearly the same growth rate. That’s impressive. Meanwhile, Meta has 3.5 billion daily active users. I mean, that’s almost half the world.They’re adding some gigantic data centers with a CapEx budget that’s approaching $150 billion at a time when we are now realizing from Amazon at least that these behemoths are going to make your company a ton of money. More important, Meta is run by a man named Mark Zuckerberg. People in the tech business do live in fear that he might have something that they don’t know about that could change everything. After all, the guy’s done it before and now I’m counting him out? Did Zuckerberg somehow do something that makes him a less effective CEO?… I don’t know. In retrospect, I think it’s time to stop worrying and start buying. Clearly, the market agrees as Meta rebounded nicely from its early morning lows.
