A Nissan badge is attached to the grill of a 2013 Nissan Pathfinder on December 3, 2012 in Niles, Illinois. Nissan Motor Co is recalling more than 300,000 SUVs in the United States over an issue in which the hood suddenly opens, obstructing the driver's view and increasing the risk of a crash. Nissan Motor said it would slash 9,000 jobs and cut global production capacity by a fifth, while revising its annual profit outlook sharply lower as it battles headwinds in China and the United States. Japan's third-largest automaker cut its annual operating profit forecast by 70% to 150 billion yen ($975 million), marking its second downward revision after a 17% cut earlier this year. Together, the two markets account for nearly half of Nissan's global sales by volume.

CNN —With another pricey Alzheimer’s disease treatment expected to receive an approval decision soon, the nonprofit Alzheimer’s Association has published the final version of its new diagnostic criteria for the disease. Together with another protein, tau, which makes fibrous tangles that block the communication of nerve cells, they are considered a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease. “There’s no evidence for it,” said Dr. George Perry, a neurobiologist and editor of the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease. Two members of the panel were employees of the Alzheimer’s Association, which also takes funding from pharmaceutical companies. Widera says he hopes that in the next round of guidelines, the Alzheimer’s Association will consider the risks involved.

Things are not looking up for Apple ahead of its fiscal second-quarter earnings, according to tech investor Dan Niles. Apple, which is due to report May 2, has dropped 14% this year — lagging behind other major technology stocks, such as Nvidia and Meta Platforms. Apple is also lagging behind its peers in the artificial intelligence race, which is why it keeps on exploring opportunities with potential partners such as Alphabet , Niles added. "On a longer-term basis at this valuation with no growth, I don't know why you would be bullish on it," the portfolio manager said. Niles has been bearish on Apple in the past.
