- IN 2016 we decried falling competition in America, where profits have surged as industries have become more concentrated. This week, drawing on our own research and a study by the Resolution Foundation, a think-tank, we report that a similarâ"if not yet as severeâ"problem has taken root across the Atlantic (see article).
- IF A war were to break out in Europe, its early stages might look something like NATOâs recent exercise on the Letzlinger Heath, some 100km (60 miles) west of Berlin. The war game imagined an enemy (Russia, say) sweeping across the northern European plain and into a NATO member state (Estonia, say).
- WHEN the Northern League linked up with the Five Star Movement (M5S) to form Western Europeâs first all-populist government of recent times, it was clear which was the junior partner. The League had won barely half as many votes at the general election in March.
- THE first criminal trial to emerge from the investigation Donald Trump has dubbed a âwitch huntâ more than 100 times on Twitterâ"including 10 mentions since July 21stâ"begins this week in a federal district court in Alexandria, Virginia.
- TWICE in the past few days, Pope Francis has accepted the resignation of senior prelates who were embroiled in abuse scandals. The latest was Australiaâs Archbishop Philip Wilson, who had received a criminal conviction for covering up serial abuse by a priest.
- MADELEINE ALBRIGHT was Americaâs first female Secretary of State, from 1997 to 2001. Born in Prague, Czechoslovakia, the young âMarie Janaâ was bundled off to Britain during the second world war to escape the Nazis. Soon after her return following the war, her family fled to America to escape the Communists.
- THERE are three main justifications for imposing a tax on a specific good. One is common to all levies: it raises money for the government. The second, which only applies to a small subset of products, is that its use inflicts costs on third parties that are not factored into its price.
- A COMMON way to describe the history of the technology industry is by product cycles. The 1990s was the era of the PC; then came the internet and related services, followed by mobile; and now artificial intelligence looms.
- JUST six years ago Spain seemed to be the European Unionâs biggest economic calamity, menacing the survival of the euro itself. As it goes on holiday this week, it is in much brighter shape. Thanks to structural reforms and some good fortune, it is enjoying a sustained recovery.
- PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP has called tariffs âthe greatest!â He is deploying them liberally, slapping new ones on imports that last year were worth $89bn. Sometimes he talks of tariffs as tools to bully others into taking down trade barriers of their own.
- What might happen if technology, which smothers us with its bounty as consumers, made the same inroads into politics? Might data-driven recommendations suggest âpolicies we may likeâ just as Amazon recommends books? Would we swipe right to pick candidates in elections or answers in referendums?
- NOT many dating shows inspire 7,400-word short stories in the London Review of Books. John Lanchesterâs effort was just one of a glut high-brow takes on âLove Islandâ, the determinedly low-brow hit show which came to an end last night.

How Jeff Bezos' parents hit a jackpot In 1995, Jackie and Mike Bezos plowed $245,573 into their sonâs fledgling e-commerce website, according to a prospectus two years later. It was a big gamble, Mike Bezos, the stepfather of Amazon.com Inc. founder Jeff Bezos, recalled onstage during a 2015 event at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia.âI want you to know how risky this is,â the son told his parents, âbecause I want to come home at dinner for Thanksgiving and I donât want you to be mad at me.âHeâs probably welcome to extra helpings of turkey -- and all the gravy. One IPO and three stock splits later, his parentsâ stake could be worth almost $30 billion today. That would make them wealthier than Microsoft Corp. co-founder Paul Allen, the 30th-richest person on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.The parentsâ holdings havenât been publicly disclosed since the end of 1999. While itâs unclear how much they still own, continuing donations of Amazon stock to their charitable foundation suggest they still control a healthy chunk of the worldâs second-most valuable company.Theyâve donated 595,027 shares to the Bezos Family Foundation from 2001 through 2016, according to filings available on GuideStar, which collects data on nonprofits. The 25,000 shares they gifted in 2016 were worth about $20 million at the time. The foundation focuses on education for young people.If they havenât sold or donated anything else, the pair would own about 16.6 million shares, or 3.4 percent of the firm, making them the second-biggest individual owners after their son.65216411 Rs 1,864 cr surprise loss hits Tata Motors Aadhaar hackers are just wasting my time: Trai boss Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) Chairman R S Sharma â" who accepted the dare on Twitter to make his Aadhaar number public and then challenged hackers to show how they could harm him due to this â" says he hopes this would put an end to the scaremongering so that the common people could benefit from the technology and go about their lives in peace. "Would it be too much to expect an honest admission of these facts from the so-called hackers or critics of Aadhaar?" Sharma wrote in an article in The Indian Express. "One interesting hack was to deposit one rupee in my account through the marvel of a system called UPI, which has been built by our country to enable financial inclusion on the scale we need. The world is in awe of this technology. But if you define crediting a rupee to an account as hacking, well more people might be happy to be hacked. In the last two days, there have been hundreds of attempts at false authentication from UIDAI servers and not even a single one of them has succeeded. Thus far I have not lost the challenge and Iâm very confident that I will not. Yes, some distress may be caused to me by the concerted effort of so many people. However, for that Aadhaar is not to blame," he wrote.Sharma, former UIDAI (Unique Identification Authority of India) director general, has been an ardent supporter of the Aadhaar programme, vouching for the safety of the system, and dispelling privacy concerns over Aadhaar even during his current tenure as Trai chief. While many on Twitter claimed victory over 'leaking' Sharma's personal details post the challenge, the Trai chief asserted through multiple tweets and replies that the challenge had never been about phone numbers and other information but for causing harm using knowledge of his Aadhaar number. "The truth is that people are proving their identity today through the Aadhaar online platform. This is empowering millions of people who get subsidies into their account or obtain other benefits. (People are also providing a copy of their Aadhaar cards to various service providers, though this is neither required nor desirable.)," Sharma wrote in the article. On Sunday, ethical hackers â" including Elliot Alderson, Pushpendra Singh, Kanishk Sajnani, Anivar Arvind, and Karan Saini â" pointed out that nearly 14 items had been leaked so far. This includes Sharma's mobile numbers, residential address, date of birth, PAN number, voter ID number, telecom operator, phone model, and Air India frequent flyer ID.But Sharma says the hackers got the details through Google search and 'social engineering' and not with the knowledge of his Aadhaar number. "You have found information about me that other users could have obtained by a determined Google search without the benefit of knowing the Aadhaar number. Having failed to penetrate the UIDAIâs system, you have tried to hack my email accounts (unsuccessfully) and to subscribe me to a large number of services. Many of these services take reasonable precautions and have sent me innumerable OTPs in their attempt to authenticate my ID. Thatâs been a waste on their part and a waste of my time. Your time is wasted too, but apparently you donât care," Sharma wrote. Vistara introduces 'no frills' fares for passengers looking for cheap fares NEW DELHI: Vistara today announced unbundling of services on its flight with the launch of âVistara Freedom Faresâ that allows passengers to book fares without frills, including complimentary meal onboard.âEffective August 2, 2018, travellers will have the freedom to choose from thoughtfully designed bundles of features and services at different price points for their preferred flight and class of service or select them à -la-carte,â said the airline in a release.As part of unbundling, Vistara introduced âLiteâ fares that will be available in Economy Class only, and for customers seeking simply the lowest fares that do not include complimentary meals. âHowever a buy-on-board option of snacks and drinks will be available. While âEconomy Liteâ customers will continue to earn Club Vistara points, they will not earn elite-qualification âtier pointsâ. âEconomy Liteâ fares are not upgradeable, non-changeable and non-refundable (though taxes are always fully refundable). The free checked baggage allowance remains at 15kg, but is restricted to one piece of checked baggage only,â the release added.This move by Vistara, which was launched as a full service carrier, is likely to help it boost ancillary revenues in an aviation market, where airlines are not able to charge fares in commensurate with the cost due to high capacity.âConsumers today have a vast range of options and the one-size-fits-all approach is increasingly becoming redundant. It is the age of flexibility; of deciding for yourself; of doing things at your own terms. We observed this consumer behaviour over a period of time and are delighted to bring âVistara Freedom Faresâ to the discerning travellers, while also further enhancing our product and service portfolio with âVistara Worldâ,â airline CEO Leslie Thng was quoted in the release. Additionally, the airline announced the introduction of âVistara Worldâ, its free in-flight entertainment system with video and audio content of more than 70 hours streamed wirelessly onto personal handheld devices and laptops.âVistara Worldâ will be rolled out fleet-wide in August 2018, subject to regulatory approvals, the airline said.âTogether with the introduction of wireless streaming of in-flight entertainment content, the attractive bundled features will provide more choices and value to customers and also help us enhance overall customer satisfaction and experience,â Sanjiv Kapoor, Chief Strategy & Commercial Officer, Vistara was quoted in the release. Tata Motors to stop manufacturing operations in Thailand NEW DELHI: Tata Motors today said it has decided to stop manufacturing operations in Thailand citing viability issues but would continue to sell vehicles in the country through imports.As part of this ongoing review, the company has undertaken a reassessment of its business model in Thailand to ensure it is sustainable over the long term, Tata Motors said in a statement."The business as it stands today is sub-scale and not sustainable. We have hence decided to cease the current manufacturing operations in this financial year," it added.Going forward, the company shall continue to address the Thailand market with a revamped product portfolio, suitable to local market needs, delivered through a completely built unit (CBU) distribution model, Tata Motors said.Tata Motors is committed to the ASEAN region wherein Thailand is an important market and the company endeavours to continue serving customers as it transitions to the new operating model, it added."It was becoming unviable business for us. Therefore, we decided to cease manufacturing operations," Tata Motors Group CFO P Balaji said.The company had incurred a loss of Rs 170 crore on the business last year, he added. Fed set to hold rates steady, remain on track for more hikes WASHINGTON: The Federal Reserve is expected to keep interest rates unchanged on Wednesday, but solid economic growth combined with rising inflation are likely to keep it on track for another two hikes this year even as President Donald Trump has ramped up criticism of its push to raise rates.The U.S. central bank so far this year has increased borrowing costs in March and June, and investors see additional moves in September and December. Policymakers have raised rates seven times since December 2015.The Fed will announce its decision at 2 p.m. EDT (1800 GMT) on Wednesday. No press conference is scheduled and only minor changes are anticipated compared with the Fed's June policy statement, which emphasized accelerating economic growth, strong business investment and rising inflation."They've got expectations pretty much where they want them," said Michael Feroli, an economist with JPMorgan. "They may need to finesse how they word the language on inflation, but I think the ultimate message is going to be the same."The U.S. economy grew at its fastest pace in nearly four years in the second quarter as consumers boosted spending and farmers rushed shipments of soybeans to China to beat retaliatory trade tariffs, Commerce Department data showed on Friday.The Fed's preferred measure of inflation - the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index excluding food and energy components- increased at a 2.0 percent pace in the second quarter, the data also showed. The latest monthly figures released on Tuesday showed prices in June were 1.9 percent higher than a year earlier.The core PCE hit the U.S. central bank's 2 percent inflation target in March for the first time since December 2011.U.S. labor costs, a key measure of how much slack is left in the market, posted their largest annual gain since 2008 in the second quarter, the Labor Department said on Tuesday.TRUMP CRITICISMEconomic growth has been buoyed by the Trump administration's package of tax cuts and government spending, and Fed Chairman Jerome Powell has said overall the economy is in a "really good place."The unemployment rate stands at 4.0 percent, lower than the level seen sustainable by Fed policymakers.The central bank is expected to continue to raise rates through 2019 but policymakers are keenly debating when the so-called "neutral rate" - the sweet spot in which monetary policy is neither expansive nor restrictive - will be hit.Rate setters are closely watching for signs that inflation is accelerating and they are expecting economic growth to slow as the fiscal stimulus fades.They also remain wary of the potential effects of a protracted trade war between the United States and China which could push the cost of goods higher and hurt company investment plans.The Fed's policy path will see interest rates peak at much lower levels than in previous economic cycles. Even so, Trump, in a departure from usual practice that presidents do not comment on Fed policy, said he was worried growth would be hit by higher rates.Administration officials played down the president's comments, saying he was not seeking to influence the Fed.On the campaign trail, Trump criticized Powell's predecessor as Fed chief, Janet Yellen, for keeping rates too low.Trump appointed Powell and Fed Governor Randal Quarles, and he has three other nominees to the rate-setting committee awaiting U.S. Senate confirmation. Almost all have been seen as mainstream in their attitude to economic policy. Economists say Trump has little influence over Fed policy beyond the personnel changes he has already made.Trump's tweets are a far cry from the 1970s when then-President Richard Nixon told the Fed chairman to kick rate setters "in the rump" to keep rates low until after an election. That stoked inflation and eventually strengthened the Fed's independence, something that has become even more entrenched since."Powell is obviously someone who values the Fed's independence," said Paul Ashworth, an economist with Capital Economics. "I don't expect them to change tack because of political pressure.
