WtF: Meta And Twitter In The Headlines For The Wrong Reasons

Meta has seen its share price decline by 70% on year to date basis driven by poor results and the street worried over rising cost as it will spend more than USD100billion on their metaverse ventures. We ask if this is wise at this current juncture. We also uncover the latest news coming out of Twitter with the abrupt dismissals of top management as Elon Musk takes over the helm. Finally, all the latest general election news is covered as we head towards GE15.
