The Bank has faced a series of scandals, and large capital outflows

Shares in European lenders tumbled again, dashing hopes that the storm had passed.

Credit Suisse was leading the way lower.

The embattled Swiss bank saw its shares fall over 20%.

It’s faced a long series of scandals, and seen huge outflows of capital.

This week it admitted to finding “material weaknesses” in its past financial reporting.

Its top investor, Saudi National Bank, said it couldn’t put in any more money.

The turmoil for the sector comes after the collapse of tech-focused lender Silicon Valley Bank.

U.S. regulators have tried to assure depositors that any cash held there, or in other banks, remains safe.

There’s now also talk of tighter regulation for lenders.

But contagion fears have pummelled stocks for the whole sector.

They also pose a dilemma for central bankers.

The U.S. Federal Reserve had been expected to hike rates again to tackle stubbornly high inflation.

But some market watchers think those plans may now have to be revised for fear of sparking deeper trouble for banks.

Tesla’s brand value plummeted to $27.61 billion in 2025 amid Musk’s political shift, sparking investor concern.

Tesla’s brand value plummeted by $15.4 billion in 2025, falling to $27.61 billion from $66.2 billion in early 2023. Analysts say Elon Musk’s political focus and a slowdown in new models have distracted the company’s core business.

In the U.S., Tesla’s recommendation score sank to just 4 out of 10, down from 8.2 in 2023. Despite this, loyalty among existing owners remains high at 92 per cent, showing a strong but shrinking fan base.

US and China approve TikTok’s sale to Oracle and Silver Lake amid regulatory scrutiny, with ByteDance retaining 20%.

The United States and China have officially approved a deal for TikTok’s US operations to be sold to American investors, led by Oracle and Silver Lake.

This marks a major shift in the social media landscape as the platform navigates increasing regulatory scrutiny.

Under the new agreement, ByteDance will retain just under 20% of TikTok US, while Oracle and Silver Lake will each take 15% stakes. Other investors will also participate, forming a structure designed to satisfy both commercial and regulatory demands.

The new US-based entity will have a majority American board tasked with overseeing data protection and content moderation. Despite these safeguards, concerns remain about ByteDance’s influence and whether the deal fully complies with recent legislation.
