US government to issue licenses to companies wanting to trade with Huawei

Late last month at the G20 summit, US president Donald Trump confirmed American companies will continue to sell components to Huawei granted that they doesn’t pose a threat to national security. Later on it became clear that US companies would be allowed to sell widely available components which are sold in other markets while more sensitive equipment would remain off limits.

Commerce Secretary Ross stated that the new licenses will still have to oblige the previously issued component availability confinements. Furthermore, he restated that the Commerce Department will only issue licenses after evaluating the potential of national security risks.

While Huawei will remain in the infamous Entity List, this is a positive step towards resuming normal operations and prevent large scale losses for both sides.

Tata Sky Launches New, Unlimited Broadband Plans, Starting at Rs 590

With the impending launch of Jio GigaFiber expected to upend the fixed-line broadband industry the way it changed the mobile telephone landscape earlier in the decade, most incumbent broadband service providers are bracing for the expected onslaught by reducing prices, increasing data caps or, like in the case of Tata Sky, introducing a bunch of new, unlimited plans at relatively affordable price-points.

Musk's new pay deal could make him the world's richest man—if Tesla succeeds

It is the Elon Musk of corporate pay deals, a cocksure, all-or-nothing moonshot into history. Little wonder, then, that it is for none other than Elon Musk. Tesla Inc. granted the billionaire founder a $2.6 billion award, the largest-ever of its kind, underscoring the company's outsize ambitions and how intimately connected its future success is to Musk. If fully vested over a decade, stock options would net him as much as $55.8 billion. Along the way, nothing would be guaranteed -- zero salary or cash bonuses. The audacious award outlines a plan for Tesla to become one of the world's biggest companies, which would make Musk perhaps the richest man on the planet in the process, but without as detailed a road map to get there as was provided with his last award.
