Freak sell-off of ‘safe haven’ US bonds has Wall Street rattled Original
NEW YORK (AP) — The upheaval in stocks has been grabbing all the headlines, but there is a bigger problem looming in another corner of the financial markets that rarely gets headlines: Investors are dumping U.S. government bonds.

Las ventas de Tesla caen un 13% en el primer trimestre por rechazo a Musk y modelos envejecidos Original
NUEVA YORK (AP) — Las ventas de Tesla disminuyeron en los primeros tres meses del año, otro signo de que la compañía de autos eléctricos de Elon Musk, que alguna vez estuvo en auge, está teniendo dificultades para atraer compradores.

NEW YORK (AP) — Tesla sales declined in the first three months of the year, another sign that Elon Musk’s once high-flying electric car company is struggling to attract buyers. The drop of 13% is likely due to combination of factors, including its aging lineup, competition from rivals and a backlash from Musk’s embrace of right wing politics. It also is a warning that the company’s first-quarter earnings report later this month could disappoint investors.

NUEVA YORK (AP) — La empresa automotriz de Elon Musk está obligada cada año a informar a los inversores sobre todas las cosas malas que podrían sucederle, y la última versión enumera cada amenaza imaginable, desde costosas demandas hasta incendios de baterías, pasando por guerras y otra epidemia.

Musk's embrace of right-wing politics risks turning off car buyers and sinking Tesla's stock Original
NEW YORK (AP) — Elon Musk’s car company is required each year to report to investors all the bad things that could happen to it, and the latest version lists every imaginable threat from costly lawsuits to out-of-control battery fires to war and another epidemic. But there’s barely any mention in the latest annual update of Musk’s full-bore entry into right-wing politics, which some experts say is turning off potential customers who don’t share his views.

NEW YORK (AP) — To its fans, it’s an undeniable force for good in a corrupt world, a groundbreaking anti-bribery statute that has brought powerful businessmen to heel for secretly paying off foreign government officials to win contracts abroad. To detractors, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act unfairly hobbles American companies while foreign rivals not so encumbered swoop in. On Monday, President Donald Trump took a side.

NEW YORK (AP) — The Trump family business released a voluntary ethics agreement Friday that marks a significant departure from Donald Trump’s first term by allowing it to strike deals with private foreign companies.

At least four times, tips were made to U.S. government agencies including the FBI and State Department that raised suspicions about the actions of a man now accused in the apparent assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.

Rooting for Trump to fail has made his stock shorters millions Original
NEW YORK (AP) — Rooting for Donald Trump to fail has rarely been this profitable. Just ask a hardy band of mostly amateur Wall Street investors who have collectively made tens of millions of dollars over the past month by betting that the stock price of his social media business — Truth Social — will keep dropping despite massive buying by Trump loyalists and wild swings that often mirror the candidate’s latest polls, court trials and outbursts on Trump Social itself.

Trump avoids 'corporate death penalty,' but his business will still get slammed Original
NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump won’t face the corporate death penalty after all.

Key points from AP analysis of Trump's New York civil fraud case Original
NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump could potentially have his real estate empire ordered “dissolved” for repeated misrepresentations on financial statements to lenders in violation of New York’s powerful anti-fraud law.

Police were alerted just last month about a Maine shooter’s threats. 'We couldn't locate him.' Original
Police across Maine were alerted just last month to “veiled threats” by the U.S. Army reservist who would go on to carry out the worst mass shooting in the state’s history, one of a string of missed red flags that preceded the massacre.

Suspect in assault at Pelosi home had posted about QAnon Original

Red flag laws get little use as shootings, gun deaths soar Original
Chicago is one of the nation’s gun violence hotspots and a seemingly ideal place to employ Illinois’ “red flag” law that allows police to step in and take firearms away from people who threaten to kill. But amid more than 8,500 shootings resulting in 1,800 deaths since 2020, the law was used there just four times. It’s a pattern that’s played out in New Mexico, with nearly 600 gun homicides during that period and a mere eight uses of its red flag law.

NEW YORK (AP) — Two women who cleaned rooms set aside for President Donald Trump at one of his golf resorts in New Jersey say they used false papers to get hired, their supervisors knew it and that many employees there also lack legal documents.
