Trump leaves China, big tech deflects, Adani and Starmer

from Reuters World News · host Reuters

U.S. President Donald Trump wraps up two days of talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping, with little to show for it. Meta and Google recruit Sesame Street, Girl Scouts and Highlights magazine to teach children healthy tech habits, even as their apps are engineered to keep those same children hooked. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s grip on power is slipping after a cabinet minister resigns and Andy Burnham makes a move to pave the way for a challenge. And two moves from the U.S. Department of Justice – the DOJ is set to drop the criminal fraud charges against Indian billionaire Gautam Adani and it’s moving to indict former Cuban leader Raúl Castro.  Listen to the Morning Bid podcast ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.
