BEIJING: Shares in tech giant Alibaba climbed more than six percent on Monday as the e-commerce titan reassured investors that a record $2.78 billion antitrust fine imposed by China would have little impact on its operations. However, concerns that officials had not finished with a crackdown on the sector weighed on big-name firms including Tencent and JD.com. Regulators slammed the tech giant with the penalty on Saturday after a months-long probe concluded it had been abusing its dominant market position. But in a conference call to investors on Monday, Alibaba’s board put a positive spin on the regulatory blow saying it appeared to be the end of the investigation, with chairman Daniel Zhang saying the fine would not have a “negative impact” on business operations. The sanction comes as the government cracks down on major Chinese tech platforms — and Alibaba in particular — over allegations of anti-competitive behavior and misuse of consumer data. “We had good guidance on … [Read more...] about Alibaba shares soar as it discounts record $2.78-B fine

Trump says the midterm elections are a "referendum about me." Of course they are. Everything is about him. Anyone who still believes the political divide runs between Republicans and Democrats hasn't been paying attention. There's no longer a Republican Party. The GOP is now just pro-Trump. Meanwhile Trump is doing all he can to make the Democratic Party the anti-Trump Party. "Democrats," he declares, are "too dangerous to govern." They're "an angry left-wing mob," leading an "assault on our country." Never before has a president of the United States been so determined not to be president of all Americans. He's president of his supporters. Tyrants create cults of personality. Trump is beyond that. He equates America with himself, and disloyalty to him with insufficient patriotism. In his mind, a giant "Trump" sign hangs over the nation. "We" are his supporters, acolytes, and toadies. "They" are the rest of us. When everything and everyone is either pro- or anti-Trump, there's … [Read more...] about Robert Reich: Democrats, Don’t Go High or Low. Go Big and Bold | Opinion
