This week at I/O, Google rolled out a series of major updates for Android Auto that include better sizing for unconventionally shaped screens, video streaming through YouTube, widget support, and of course, more AI-powered Gemini features . The company also announced some updates for cars that run on Google's built-in native software, including the ability to ask Gemini questions that are specific to the car you're driving. First off, it's screen size. It used to be that in-car screens all came in the same basic shape. But now the standard rectangle has evolved into a variety of curved, panoramic, swooping, and even circular displays. Google … Read the full story at The Verge.

Pakistan 'Categorically Rejects' Reports It Hid Iranian Military Planes From US Attack A day after initial allegations were first widely reported, Pakistan's government has issued a public rejection of claims that it hosted Iranian military aircraft in order to shield them from coming under US-Israeli attack during the opening weeks of Operation Epic Fury. However, Islamabad in the statement did acknowledged the presence of some Iranian planes at its airports - but described these as legitimate escorts related to high level diplomatic visits and contacts . Iranian jets targeted by US military during Epic Fury "Following the ceasefire and during the initial round of the Islamabad Talks, a number of aircraft from Iran and the United States arrived in Pakistan to facilitate the movement of diplomatic personnel, security teams and administrative staff associated with the talks process," a Tuesday statement by Pakistan said. "Some aircraft and support personnel remained temporarily in Pakistan in anticipation of subsequent rounds of engagement." The initial Monday headlines suggesting Pakistan sought to protect Iranian military assets resulted in some outrage in D.C. and among the pundit class. A late in the day Monday CBS News report alleged that US-ally Pakistan allowed Iran to park military aircraft at its airfields, and thus outside the US-Israeli strike zone during Operation Epic Fury : As Pakistan positioned itself as a diplomatic conduit between Tehran and Washington, it quietly allowed Iranian military aircraft to park on its airfields , potentially shielding them from American airstrikes, according to U.S. officials with knowledge of the matter. Iran also sent civilian aircraft to park in neighboring Afghanistan. It was not clear if military aircraft were among those flights, two of the officials told CBS News. President Trump and admin officials have repeatedly declared the utter and total destruction of Iran's air force and navy, but apparently some planes wer...

Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) stock reached all-time highs earlier this decade thanks to the company's dominance in the market for coronavirus vaccines and medicines. However, the pharmaceutical leader was unable to keep up that pace. Revenue and earnings declined significantly since those highs, as did the company's share price. The stock is down 35% over the past five years. But what if Pfizer could recover and deliver superior returns through 2031? In my view, there is a good chance that it will happen. Here is why. Image source: The Motley Fool. Pfizer's best-selling medicines include older products, such as the anticoagulant Eliquis and the cancer drug Ibrance. The healthcare giant's lineup also still features Comirnaty and Paxlovid, its coronavirus products. Most of these are no longer reliable growth drivers. In 2025, among these four, only Eliquis posted year-over-year sales growth. Here's even worse news: Eliquis will run out of patent exclusivity in the next few years, and it won't be the only one of Pfizer's drugs that will suffer that fate. Continue reading

As UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer slowly loses allies in government and fights for his survival, the escalating political drama is heaping fresh pressure onto a bond market already battered by the country’s deep-rooted fiscal and economic problems. Yields on longer-dated gilts are at their highest in decades and above bonds of all Group-of-10 peers. The latest lurch higher came as Starmer faced increasing calls for his resignation after his party was trounced in local elections last week. Investors are nervous that a new Labour leader would be more left-leaning and, crucially, could further loosen the fiscal rules that have restrained the current administration from spending more and adding even more to the debt pile. In an unusual turn of events, the debt market may actually be working in Starmer’s favor. The so-called bond vigilantes are often seen as the nemesis of UK governments, setting limits on fiscal largess and even helping to topple leaders, most notably Liz Truss in 2022. Now, as yields push higher, that’s feeding through to households in the form of more expensive interest payments on mortgages and credit cards. Labour members may be reluctant to oust Starmer if they fear a dangerous spike in borrowing costs, giving voters more reasons to reject the party. More broadly, the latest volatility is another episode in the tension between politicians’ desire to spend and the bond market’s repeated pushback. Particularly since the turmoil surrounding Truss’s mini-budget, which sent the pound to a record low and gilt yields surging, the UK never feels that far from crisis. Away from the daily fluctuations in asset prices, there appears to be an inexorable momentum toward another fiscal showdown at some point between the government and the market.

With Britain’s debt ratio above 90% of GDP and inflation on the rise, investors have ...

watch now VIDEO 0:57 00:57 Senate confirms Kevin Warsh as Fed Governor Halftime Report Kevin Warsh took another step towards becoming Federal Reserve chair on Tuesday, clearing a key Senate vote that puts him on the central bank Board of Governors. The upper chamber voted to approve Warsh's nomination by a 51-45 vote, on a mostly party-line basis. Only Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., crossed lines to vote for President Donald Trump's pick. Next up for the nominee, who sat on the board rom 2006-11, is the vote to be chair, which is expected Wednesday. Terms for governors last 14 years, while the chair's term goes for four years. Warsh's vote also means the end of Stephen Miran's brief term on the board. Miran also was a Trump nominee and filled the seat vacated by Adriana Kugler, who resigned in August 2025. Assuming confirmation, Warsh, 56, will take over for Jerome Powell, whose eight-year stint at the helm will officially end Friday. However, Powell's term on the board doesn't end until 2028, and he has indicated he will stay on until a probe into a renovation project at the Fed's headquarters is completed. Warsh comes to the Fed at a challenging time for policy. The war in Iran and tariffs Trump levied last year have put upward pressure on inflation, pushing headline numbers to their highest in nearly three years. At the same time, the labor market has benefited from a low-hire low-fire environment that has kept unemployment in check even as payrolls growth has been inconsistent. In multiple public statements, Warsh has called for "regime change" at the Fed and has said he believes the central bank's benchmark interest rate can be lower. However, markets expect the Fed to stay put and even are pricing in elevated odds for a rate hike ahead. The rate-setting Federal Open Market Committee next meets June 16-17. CNBC has reached out to Warsh for comment. Choose CNBC as your preferred source on Google and never miss a moment from the most trusted name in business news.
