🚙 Elon Musk says Americans 'are trying to avoid going to work at all,' unlike Chinese workers Elon Musk, said he expects China to produce "some very strong companies" because of the country's workforce. "There's just a lot of super-talented, hardworking people in China who strongly believe in manufacturing," Musk said in an interview with the Financial Times. Last month, workers at Tesla's Shanghai Gigafactory were required to sleep at the facility as production resumed following a three-week shutdown. But workplace tides may be shifting in China after tech workers there protested the "996" schedule that had many working 72 hours per week, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. for six days. The best minds, he said, are more interested in pushing the bounds of innovation than in getting paid a lot to work on something boring.

📉 It's finally a better time to buy a used car Used vehicles were hit hardest by rising inflation as the economy reopened and spending boomed in early 2021. Pent-up demand for cars slammed into the global semiconductor shortage, crimping supply for both new and previously owned vehicles. Used car and truck prices rose more than 10% in April and June of last year and counted for roughly one-third of overall inflation throughout last spring. Used car and truck prices fell 0.4% in April, according to government data published Wednesday. That follows a 3.8% decline in March and a 0.2% drop through February. Prices for used cars and trucks now sit about 48% higher than pre-pandemic, it's down significantly from the January peak when prices were about 54% higher. Used vehicles might not completely be a buyers' market just yet, but it's moving in that direction

😯 A US federal judge has ordered a research firm, hired by Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign to dig up dirt on former President Donald Trump, to turn over 22 emails to Special Counsel John Durham.
▪️ Thursday’s decision by District Judge Christopher Cooper on handing the Fusion GPS emails was described by US media as a major victory for Durham, who is prosecuting former Clinton campaign lawyer Micheal Sussmann on charges of lying to the FBI, as part of the special counsel’s probe into the Russian “collusion” narrative. Fusion GPS in turn previously hired former British spy Christopher Steele to compile the now-debunked reports that purportedly tied Trump to Russia.
▪️ Cooper ruled that the research company improperly withheld the 22 emails from Durham by arguing that they were protected by attorney-client privilege and “work-product” privilege, in a move that came at the request of Clinton’s 2016 campaign.
