Reuters World News: Trump's foreign courters, and other top stories: The US Senate approves a bill to ban TikTok unless it’s sold by its Chinese owner ByteDance.

reuters.com/podcasts/podcast-tiktok-countdown-trumps-foreign-courters-boeing-plastic-divide-2024-04-24/

Quick Glance: Overview: Tesla Stocks Plummet, Europe Business Surpasses Expectations

World markets have brightened slightly this week, but Tesla is facing a critical earnings test, while Europe's business pulse has surprisingly been lively this month.

Following the worst week on Wall Street since 2022, relief from easing Middle East tensions helped stabilize the situation on Monday. The chip giant Nvidia made a modest recovery from losses as Big Tech megacaps gear up for quarterly earnings releases.

As the first of the 'Magnificent 7' Vanguard stocks, electric vehicle giant Tesla will report on Tuesday, having plummeted by a substantial 43% year-to-date and nearly 60% over the past two years amidst fierce price competition, declining EV demand, and governance/product concerns.

While Big Tech jitters define this month's market fluctuations, investors will closely watch the upcoming results for a clearer perspective.

Quick Glance: South Korea's Olympic Qualification Hopes Dashed by Indonesia Defeat

South Korea's men's soccer team will miss out on the Olympic football tournament for the first time since 1984 after a loss to Indonesia in the Under-23 Asian Cup quarterfinals that went to a penalty shootout.

Indonesia secured a spot in the last four teams by winning the penalty shootout 11-10, with the game ending 2-2 after extra time.

Despite Jeong Sang-bin's equalizer with 14 minutes left, and being down to 10 players due to a red card for Lee Young-jun, Lee Kang-hee missed his shot in the shootout, allowing Pratama Arhan to score the winning goal.

Japan emerged victorious against host Qatar in a 4-2 extra-time win, maintaining their path towards an eighth consecutive Olympic appearance. Saudi Arabia will face Uzbekistan, and Iraq will meet Vietnam. The fourth-placed team will have a playoff against Guinea in May to secure a place in Paris.

Quick Glance: The Sports Bra Announces Franchising Plans with Investment from Reddit Co-Founder Alexis Ohanian

The Sports Bra, a now-iconic Portland destination that made history as the first women’s sports bar in the world, has announced plans to franchise and expand into other cities.

Investment from Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian - the husband of tennis legend Serena Williams - will fund the effort in partnership with Ohanian’s 776 Foundation. All returns from the investment will be invested back into girls’ and women’s sports via the foundation, the Sports Bra wrote in a post on Instagram.

Owner Jenny Nguyen opened The Sports Bra in Portland in 2022, and the business thrived in a city and state that has consistently showcased strong support for women’s sports.

But the growing hype around women’s sports is not unique to Portland. The popularity of women’s professional sports has seen a significant national uptick thanks, in part, to the emerging stardom of athletes like Sophia Smith, Caitlin Clark and others.

Quick Glance: Twelve Jurors Seated in Trump's Hush Money Trial

A jury of 12 individuals was empaneled on Thursday in the landmark hush money trial of former President Donald Trump, bringing the proceedings closer to opening arguments and the commencement of weeks filled with compelling testimonies.

The upcoming trial is anticipated to present unfavorable testimonies regarding Trump's personal life pre-presidency, including accusations of manipulating business records to suppress narratives in the final days of the 2016 election surrounding his intimate relationships.

Central to the trial is a payment of $130,000 made by Cohen just before the 2016 election to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, aimed at preventing her allegations of a sexual encounter with Trump from being publicized in the campaign's final stretch.

The selection of the jury holds paramount significance in any criminal proceeding, particularly so when the accused is a former president and the presumed Republican candidate. Potential jurors have undergone extensive scrutiny concerning their online presence, personal backgrounds, and political stances as legal representatives and the judge meticulously scrutinize for partialities that could compromise their impartiality.

MPs back smoking ban for those born after 2009: The measures, championed by PM Rishi Sunak, pass despite opposition by several leading Conservative figures.

Quick Glance: UK Lawmakers Support Groundbreaking 'Smoke-Free Generation' Bill

The British government's plan for a landmark smoking ban to prevent young people from ever smoking passed its first hurdle in Parliament despite opposition from within Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's Conservative Party.

The bill, announced by Sunak, would make it illegal to sell tobacco products to anyone born after January 1, 2009, creating one of the toughest anti-smoking measures in the world to establish the 'first smoke-free generation' in modern Britain.

The bill also includes measures to crack down on youth vaping, such as banning the sale of cheap disposable vapes and restricting their flavors to prevent children from becoming addicted to nicotine.

The number of people who smoke in the U.K. has declined by two-thirds since the 1970s, but approximately 6.4 million people in the country still smoke, accounting for about 13% of the population. Smoking remains the number one preventable cause of death, disability, and poor health.

Quick Glance: 'Rust' Armorer Sentenced to 18 Months in Fatal Shooting

Former 'Rust' movie armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, was sentenced to 18 months in prison by the New Mexico District Court Judge.

The incident that shocked the film industry is believed to mark the first instance in recent history of a member of a film crew or cast being fatally injured by a live round mistakenly loaded into a firearm.

Baldwin's trial is scheduled for July 10 following his indictment for involuntary manslaughter in January.

Initially, Hutchins' death led to a halt in the use of real firearms and blank ammunition by US film and television productions, but many have resumed usage due to the authenticity they provide.
