New York CNN —The billionaires who control social media want to be clear about what’s OK to post online and what’s not. For X (formerly Twitter), just about anything goes, including neo-Nazi propaganda, crypto scams and porn (as long as it’s labeled properly). Anyone can do the same thing — Sweeney just made it slightly more convenient. It’s just not clear that Meta cares as much about its users’ privacy and wellbeing as it does about Zuckerberg’s. At a Senate hearing in January, Zuckerberg apologized to families who said their children had been harmed by social media.

AdvertisementNorway wants to stop children under 15 from using social media, proposing one of the world's toughest bans. The Scandinavian nation already restricts social media more than most, with a ban for under-13s. The Norwegian prime minister, Jonas Gahr Støre, told the Norwegian tabloid VG that new regulation would indeed be "an uphill battle." The Norwegian Media Authority in August estimated that 53% of nine-year-olds, 58% of 10-year-olds, and 72% of 11-year-olds use social media. Anglero said it's common for Oslo families to use social media, whether to coordinate children's sports teams or just to chat.

CNBC's Jim Cramer on Thursday told investors that resources like fossil fuels will remain important and enable technological innovations, even as investments in renewable energy continue to grow. While the tech megacaps are investing heavily in nuclear energy, Cramer suggested that power won't play a huge role in the data center for at least a decade. He also reviewed GE Vernova 's recent quarter, saying the company's strength came from electrification and natural gas, not wind or nuclear power. But Cramer also stressed that the conversation around fossil fuels extends beyond the automotive industry. "The truth is, fossil fuels are essential for a lot more than vehicles, like it or not."

Walmart stock has soared 58% this year to record highs, making its founding family richer than ever. Retail legend Sam Walton's three surviving children are each worth more than $100 billion. Walmart and the Waltons have benefited from a signature strategy and cost pressures on consumers.

AdvertisementTesla's earlier Robotaxi unveiling failed to impress investors, despite a surprise Robovan announcement and promises that unsupervised fully autonomous driving would be available in California and Texas next year. After the unveiling, Tesla's stock fell 10%. And the stock increase shows just how much analysts focus on the near-term and Tesla's automotive business, he said. The company also said in its earnings report that production on "more affordable models" remains on track for the first half of 2025. Musk also touted other aspects of Tesla's business, including its energy products and fully autonomous self-driving cars.

CNN —Elon Musk’s super PAC didn’t announce a winner for its “daily” $1 million giveaway to registered swing state voters on Wednesday, the same day news broke that the Justice Department warned Musk’s group that its sweepstakes might be illegal. The super PAC has announced its winners each day to fanfare, with flashy videos posted to social media and celebratory tweets from Musk. It’s unclear if the Justice Department letter is why the super PAC didn’t publicly name a winner on Wednesday. CNN has reached out to the super PAC seeking comment. However, several election law experts who spoke to CNN pointed out that the fine print on Musk’s super PAC website explaining the official terms of entry did not change.

The Justice Department declined to comment, and the super PAC’s treasurer did not immediately reply to a voicemail message requesting comment. On Monday, a group of ex-prosecutors and other former government officials sent a letter to the Justice Department requesting an investigation. Legal experts have told NBC News that they believe Musk’s contest falls into a legal gray area and could violate election law, but not necessarily. So far, several of the winners have appeared in short videos for America PAC talking about their support for former President Donald Trump. Musk, who has endorsed Trump’s campaign, launched America PAC in an effort to help elect him.

Warren Buffett is worried about a rise in impersonators looking to capitalize on his name by purporting to be him recommending an investment product or political candidate on social media. So much so that Berkshire Hathaway made the rare move of adding a statement on the matter to the front page of its website. The statement reads:“In light of the increased usage of social media, there have been numerous fraudulent claims regarding Mr. Buffett’s endorsement of investment products as well as his endorsement and support of political candidates. But Buffett wants to make sure everyone knows he would never do something like that. His actions were triggered in part by a fake political endorsement on Meta’s Instagram that was brought to his attention.

Net income rose to about $2.17 billion, or 62 cents a share, from $1.85 billion, or 53 cents a share, a year ago. Profit margins were bolstered by $739 million in automotive regulatory credit revenue during the quarter. Automotive revenue increased 2% to $20 billion from $19.63 billion in the same period a year earlier and is about flat since late 2022. Energy generation and storage revenue soared 52% to $2.38 billion, while services and other revenue, which includes revenue from non-warranty repairs of Tesla vehicles, jumped 29% to $2.79 billion. "Despite ongoing macroeconomic conditions, we expect to achieve slight growth in vehicle deliveries in 2024," the company said in its earnings deck Wednesday.

CNN —The Justice Department warned Elon Musk’s America PAC in recent days that his $1 million sweepstakes to registered voters in swing states may violate federal law, people briefed on the matter told CNN. Musk’s initial promise to pay prizes to registered voters immediately raised concerns from election law experts and some state officials who questioned whether it ran afoul of the law. The language of the petition currently promises $1 million prizes to people chosen at random for signing a petition in support of First and Second Amendment freedoms. But to sign the petition, you must be registered to vote in specific states. Only petition signers can win the $1 million prize, and signers “must be registered voters of Arizona, Michigan, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, or Wisconsin.”It’s not clear when Musk received the Justice Department’s letter and whether it prompted changes to messaging around the giveaway.

Tesla reports improved earnings

New York CNN —Tesla Wednesday reported an unexpected improvement in earnings for the third quarter, lifting its recently battered shares in after-hours trading. But So the better profit came not from increasing sales but from success in cutting its cost to build vehicles. Tesla has been leading a price war in the electric vehicle sector, as a response to increased competition, especially from Chinese automakers. Investors had previously sold off Tesla shares (TSLA), disappointed by lack of details at a company event on plans for self-driving robotaxis. For the quarter Tesla earned $2.5 billion in the quarter, or 72 cents a share, up 8% from a year ago.

But recent sales data from the auto-industry tracker Cox Automotive is worth examining ahead of Tesla's results on Wednesday. Tesla sold almost 17,000 Cybertrucks in the third quarter, Cox estimated, making it the third-most-popular EV in the US during the period. That's more than Ford's F-150 Lightning, Rivian's R1T, and Chevy's Silverado EV, Cox data shows. General Motors reported surprisingly solid results earlier this week and highlighted strong EV sales. Related storiesSome of this recent EV strength has been driven by lease incentives, which are available in the US to more buyers.

Musk later deleted his X post that called the interview “very interesting” and “worth watching,” per the Independent. Musk rarely deletes his social media posts, no matter how inflammatory. Musk is the single biggest individual shareholder at Tesla, the only publicly traded business he owns. Litigation is a key part of the Musk playbook when it comes to any person or group challenging him or his businesses. Angry at advertisers for leaving his Nazi-tolerating social media site, Musk sued a nonprofit ad group out of existence.
