With Bend Studio laying off 30% of its staff as it gears up to enter a lengthy pre-production stage, it's clear their next release (should it ever materialize) will be on PlayStation 6. This is just the most recent example in a lengthening string of Sony absolutely botching its first party initiative, deploying teams on projects that make no sense, purchasing studios that have never even released a game, and complicating a service game strategy that -- at least on paper -- made a lot of sense. Where does the buck stop, exactly? And how lucky is Sony and the PlayStation brand that they've been able to coast almost entirely on external content and commercial inertia all the while? Plus: MindsEye is a complete disaster, Stellar Blade becomes PlayStation Publishing's most-played single-player PC port, Capcom and Konami reveal Resident Evil Requiem and Silent Hill Remake respectively, the Outer Worlds 2's $80 price point infuriates some, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is somehow coming to PlayStation 4, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! When Colin talks about a hypothetical AAA Mega Man game, what exactly is he envisioning? Why did Microsoft include the PS5 logo so readily during its showcase? Will GameStop ever stop selling opened games as new?

Apple enttäuscht auf der WWDC und veröffentlicht ein Paper, was bemängelt, dass KI lediglich Muster wiedergibt, anstatt echte Schlussfolgerungen zu ziehen. Meta plant eine Investition von über 10 Milliarden Dollar in Scale AI und Mark Zuckerberg formiert ein neues Team, um bei Meta die Entwicklung von künstlicher Superintelligenz voranzutreiben. Absolventen des Jahrgangs 2025 stehen vor einem veränderten Arbeitsmarkt durch KI und Einstellungsstopps. Chinas führende KI-Tools schränken während der "Gaokao"-Prüfungen ihre Funktionen ein, um Betrug zu verhindern. Die "One Big Beautiful Bill" könnte die US-Steuerpolitik und globale Märkte drastisch beeinflussen. Der Streit zwischen Elon Musk und Donald Trump erschwert Morgan Stanleys Kapitalbeschaffung für xAI. In Los Angeles eskalieren Proteste, bei denen Waymo-Taxis in Brand gesetzt wurden.

Our world famous #AprilAchievementChallenge has come to an end. And do we have the recap for you - all the in-and-outs as they happened! Gears of War is going to PlayStation, its true, For all the good that will do... Xbox really seems keen to destroy its brand. As it sends its tent pole games into competitor's hand. But the games only flow towards one way, As God of War has not come to Xbox this day... We're sorry for starting the podcast off with this depressing news, but blame Lee. So far, of the core Xbox franchises - Forza, Gears and Halo, only Halo remains and Xbox exclusive. But for how long? By the end on Not-E3 this year, will Xbox have any exclusives left? Probably not. Then the only thing going for it is Game Pass... The world we could have been in, if only Microsoft stick by their guns and had faith in their products - Xbox included. Just imagine what would have happened if Call of Duty was exclusive! Xbox may even be the no.1 console...   In saying that - it's not like we aren't getting any games! Thanks to a renewed Xbox roadmap, we can see the next few games planned and we're sure this will be expanded on during not-E3 as well! In addition, Game Pass continues to shower us with games - some we have bought, and some we were going to buy. This is the service that keeps on serving... up good games, that is!   While there's a lot to be critical of, Xbox is where our hearts are. Even if its not where Microsoft's heart is any more. So in preparation, we're getting ready for Tencent to buy Xbox from Microsoft and release The T-Box! Tongue in cheek, of course!   The next event is in June and it's all about your backlog!

Alibaba. Tencent. JD. Pinduoduo. Run down the list of China's most valuable companies and you'll find, for the most part, that they're all e-commerce companies—or at least facilitate e-commerce. The sector created giants: Alibaba grew from just 5.5 billion renminbi of revenue in 2010 to 280 billion last year. But how did Chinese e-commerce firms shut out their foreign competition?

"Een opvallende set met cijfers", zegt Stan Westerterp van Bond Capital Partners naar aanleiding van de resultaten van ABN Amro. "De voorzieningen voor oninbare leningen vielen mee en de rentes zijn ook alweer een tijd wat hoger, dus de marges daar zijn veel beter dan een aantal jaren geleden. Ook de kapitaalratio's zijn sterk en ze keren een aardig dividend uit." De hypotheekmarkt is voor ABN Amro heel belangrijk en daar kijkt Joost van Leenders van Van Lanschot Kempen kritisch naar. "Er is daar wel meer volume, maar daar zit wel druk op de marges, de concurrentie is daar toegenomen." Joost vraagt af de rentemarges in de nabije toekomst nog verder kunnen verbeteren "Tijdelijk positief", dat is Stans oordeel over het beurssentiment. Zeker als je kijkt naar hoe april begon: in mineur, na Trumps aankondiging van de handelstarieven. Of het herstel helemaal realistisch is, maar vooralsnog is het goed. Joost tekent daarbij aan dat we alweer richting all time highs gaan. Verder in de podcast aandacht voor de laatste economische ontwikkelingen en de cijfers van onder andere Walmart, Cisco, Bayer en Tencent. Uiteraard behandelen we de luisteraarsvragen en geven de experts hun tips. Joost tipt een Amerikaans bedrijf in de medische sector, Stan tipt een Nederlands industrieel concern.

Après un plongeon printanier, les marchés actions américains reprennent des couleurs dans le sillage d'un Donald Trump nouvelle version : toujours rugueux, mais plus réactif.

Les gardiens de la galaxie obligataire veillent et ils sont un peu inquiets… Mais les investisseurs en actions se fichent pour le moment de ces rabat-joie austères.Distribué par Audiomeans.

S&P Futures are displaying strong gains this morning as markets react to the latest news on the U.S. and China trade talks. The U.S. & China will be lowering tariffs by 115% for the next 90 days and agreed to continue trade talks. Healthcare stocks are weakening as President Trump is expected to sign an executive order on drug pricing today. Defense stocks are on watch as Russia and Ukraine appear ready for peace talks. House Republicans have released a new plan to cut Medicaid spending, opting for a compromise approach after internal debate between party centrists and hardliners. the House GOP plan represents a significant but less extreme reduction in Medicaid spending, shaped by intraparty negotiations and concerns over the potential impact on vulnerable populations. Earnings season remains in focus, with major reports due out this week from Cisco, Tencent, Alibaba, SoftBank, Walmart, and Target. 

Amidst headlines proclaiming economic doom from Trump's tariffs, a surprising reality emerges: Chinese exports to the United States represent a mere 2.3% of China's GDP. This revealing statistic underscores China's remarkable transformation from an export-driven economy to one powered by domestic consumption and services.Henry Greene, Investment Strategist at KraneShares, breaks down this economic evolution with remarkable clarity. China's exports to America have plummeted from over 25% of total exports in 2006-2010 to just 14% today, while their manufactured goods exports represent only about 11% of GDP. For investors concerned about Chinese internet companies, the news grows even more intriguing – less than 2% of revenues from KWeb portfolio companies (including Alibaba, PDD, Tencent, and Meituan) originate from American consumers. Only PDD Holdings, with its popular Temu app, faces meaningful exposure at roughly 15% of revenue.The conversation explores several misconceptions plaguing market narratives. Concerns about Chinese company delistings from U.S. exchanges largely rehash existing policies from the 2020 Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, rather than representing new threats. Similarly, trade tensions around Taiwan reflect long-standing political posturing rather than imminent geopolitical shifts. Meanwhile, Chinese internet valuations remain compelling at roughly 17% earnings multiples compared to 30% for U.S. tech counterparts.Looking forward, multiple growth catalysts remain intact regardless of trade negotiations. Artificial intelligence development continues at pace with companies like Alibaba introducing increasingly efficient models. Consumer confidence has room to recover from pandemic-era lows. Perhaps most promising, cloud computing penetration among Chinese businesses sits at just 50% – substantially below Western rates and echoing the internet adoption curve that powered earlier growth cycles.Discover how savvy investors are navigating this complex landscape using strategies like balanced onshore/offshore exposure, covered calls, buffer products, and Asian fixed income to capitalize on China's economic resilience while managing volatility.

Het is alweer bijna zo ver. In Zwitserland wordt er stevig onderhandeld tussen China en de VS, maar jij zit lekker in je luie stoel. Eén tegenvaller: de beursweek staat alweer om de hoek. Een week met aandeelhoudersvergaderingen bij ASM International en Just Eat Takeaway, en met kwartaalcijfers van ABN Amro, NN Group en Alfen. Maar Bob Homan van ING Investment Office kijkt naar liever naar China. Niet naar die onderhandelingen met Amerika, maar naar een heel aantal bedrijven dat daar met de cijfers komt. Want die kunnen nog wel eens van invloed zijn op de stemming in Zwitserland. In Beurs in Zicht stomen we je klaar voor de beursweek die je tegemoet gaat.

German challenger bank N26 was an investor darling, backed by Peter Thiel, Tencent, and Li Ka-Shing. The company, founded in 2014, was one of the original banking disruptors but ran into a major hurdle when German regulator BaFin put a cap on how many new customers it could take due to concerns around money laundering controls. The cap expired last year - N26 has seen a jump in new customers and is forecasting a 40% revenue rise for this year.
