☆ Argentina, Brazil seek 12.5 billion euros of financial aid in EU-Mercosur talks

MADRID/BRASILIA, Oct 20 (Reuters) - Argentina and Brazil are requesting 12.5 billion euros ($13.2 billion) in financial aid from the European Union in talks to conclude a trade agreement with South America's Mercosur bloc, according to a document seen by Reuters. Three EU and South American diplomats confirmed the Argentine request, which is backed by Brazil, in the rotating presidency of the four-nation Mercosur. A European diplomat involved in the talks told Reuters the 12.5 billion euros number was "floated" but that any support "would not be anything like that figure." The new aid request was made in a Mercosur counterproposal to an EU addendum proposing environmental safeguards. But the financial aid request and reopening of the public procurement chapter could prevent a final deal this year.

☆ Lyft Employees Told to Return to Office as New Chief Executive Lays Out Vision

Since the pandemic began, Lyft employees have been able to work remotely, logging into videoconferences from their homes and dispersing across the country like many other tech workers. On Friday, David Risher, the company’s new chief executive, told employees in an all-hands meeting that they would be required to come back into the office at least three days a week, starting this fall. Remote work in the tech industry, he said, had come at a cost, leading to isolation and eroding culture. It could also be an indication that some tech companies — particularly firms that are struggling — may be changing their minds on flexibility about where employees work. Nudges toward working in the office could soon turn into demands.
☆ 'Zoom rooms' and hideaway offices show how remote work is changing the way we design new homes

Family homes with two offices and "Zoom rooms" with camera-ready lighting are popular. The real-estate site Zillow told Insider offices were mentioned in 11.5%% of all listings in February 2023, up 4.5% from February 2022. Amanda Pendleton, Zillow's home-trends expert, told Insider a home office was no longer a "nice-to-have luxury." "When people don't have enough space or cash for two full-sized offices, they're replacing rooms," Hester said. She told Insider Veev's homes had LED strips around the edge of the ceiling to make even lighting that works well on camera.
☆ U.S. Warns China Against Supplying Arms to Russia in Ukraine War
  + stars: | 2023-02-19 | by ( Isabel Coles In Dnipro | Ukraine | Charles Hutzler In Washington | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
U.S. officials are warning China against supplying Russia with arms and ammunition, as Moscow struggles to gain ground in Ukraine despite deploying almost the entirety of its ground forces in its smaller neighbor. Concerns that China was considering providing lethal assistance to Russia first surfaced in meetings between officials late last year and early this year, officials said. U.S. officials put their Chinese counterparts on notice in videoconferences and at in-person meetings that China is “nearing a red line” in assisting Russia’s war, the officials said.

With a stock price down 45% in the last year, though, it may soon find itself on the other side of the table. But it has $732 million in cash on hand, with zero debt, and analysts are projecting 16% revenue growth. This year, though, Varonis has come back to earth — its stock price has sunk over 57% in the last 12 months. However, with strong projected 2023 revenue growth of 18.6%, Zuora remains a strong target for PE firms. Its stock price has been hammered, going down about 40% this year and making it the subject of mergers-and-acquisitions chatter.
