China's top market regulator says it launched an investigation into Qualcomm, one of the U.S.'s most important semiconductor companies, for suspected violation of the country's anti-monopoly law.

The investigation is tied to Qualcomm's acquisition of the Israeli startup

auto talks, according to the regulator. This move comes after a string of actions by Beijing,

targeting the U.S. chip industry, and it suggests that China doesn't plan on backing off ahead

of an expected meeting between President Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping. Qucomm didn't immediately respond to request for comment.

Federal regulators have opened another investigation into Tesla, saying its full self-driving

system, quote, induced some cars to run red lights or turn into incoming traffic.

Several incidents have resulted in crashes, with some causing injuries.

That's according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. This is the latest of

several probes into Tesla's technology, and covers nearly 2.9 million vehicles with the full

self-driving system. Tesla didn't respond to her request for comment. And Microsoft and Anthropic have hired

former UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak as an advisor, following his appointment to a similar

position at Goldman Sachs. Sunak said on social media that he'll donate his full compensation

from both roles to the Richmond Project, a charity run by him and his wife. He also said Microsoft

and Anthropic are addressing strategic questions on how to make tech work for economies. That's your
