Trump trommelt, Thieme kontert: Viel Drohlärm, wenig Weltuntergang. (BRN)
|
|
|
Trump droht, der Nahe Osten brennt, der Ölpreis zittert und an den Märkten regiert mal wieder die Schlagzeilen-Hysterie. Heiko Thieme hält dagegen, mit gewohnt klarem Kurs und ohne diplomatische Watte. Sein Befund: viel politischer Lärm, viel moralischer und völkerrechtlicher Flurschaden, aber kein Grund, an der Börse kollektiv die Nerven wegzuwerfen. Für Thieme ist der DAX im Bereich um 22.000 Punkte eher Tiefzone als Absturzkante. Selbst ein Rücksetzer Richtung 21.000 wäre für ihn noch kein Drama, ein echter Bärenmarkt unter 20.000 Punkten ist dagegen klar nicht sein Hauptszenario. Zum Jahresende sieht er den DAX deutlich höher, sogar nahe 27.500 Punkte. Seine Antwort auf Trump-Drohung, TACO-Trade und Kriegsangst: Liquidität halten, gestaffelt kaufen, nicht panisch reagieren. Meta, Broadcom und Oracle sieht er auf Kaufniveau, dazu nennt er PayPal, Vonovia und Novo Nordisk als antizyklische Chancen. Auch China bleibt für ihn eine Beimischung. Die Quintessenz dieser langen Thieme-Stunde: Die...

AI experts say we're living in an experiment that may fundamentally change the model of workSign up for the Breaking News US email to get newsletter alerts in your inboxHundreds of thousands of tech workers are facing a harsh reality. Their well-paying jobs are no longer safe. Now that artificial intelligence (AI) is here, their futures don't look as bright as they did a decade ago.As US tech companies have ramped up investments in AI, they've slashed a staggering number of jobs. Microsoft cut 15,000 workers last year. Amazon laid off 30,000 employees in the last six months. Financial-services company Block eliminated more than 4,000 people, or 40% of its workforce, in February.

′It started with a tip-off′: how a Guardian investigation exposed child sex trafficking on Facebook and Instagram (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Meta has just lost a multimillion-dollar legal battle over its failure to prevent children being sold on its platforms. Here's how we uncovered evidence that became part of the case against itIt started with a tipoff. I was reporting on the trafficking and exploitation of migrant workers in the Gulf when a source I had known for more than a decade reached out. They told me that child sexual abuse trafficking in the US was surging. As the Covid pandemic pushed predators online, some were using Facebook and Instagram to buy and sell children.It was 2021 and I was about to begin an investigation with Mei-Ling McNamara, a human rights journalist, that would lead to the tech company Meta losing a multimillion-pound court case in March this year. The company had not yet rebranded and was known as Facebook, and there had not been any reporting on how children were being trafficked on its platforms. Experts from anti-trafficking nonprofit organisations and an American law enforcement official talked me through t...
