In one fiery Model S crash, witnesses heard screaming, including a woman saying, “I’m stuck." Bloomberg obtained three 911 calls, including one made automatically by the Apple watch of an occupant inside the vehicle, on which people can be heard yelling and moaning. None survived.

From 2018 to 2024, the tax rate paid by eight major retailers was slashed from 30% to just 17.5%.
The CEOs of those major retailers were paid a collective $1.3 billion.
Meanwhile, the average worker at those stores was paid less than $32,000 in 2024.
Nothing trickled down.

Italy's powerful Agnelli family invests differently. Now its $6 billion asset manager is coming to America.
