Google and Facebook Turn On the Fake Riviera Charm
Last week at Cannes Lions, the advertising world’s yearly schmooze-fest on the Cote d’Azur, the industry tried to present a unified front. Internet ads have their place, went the message, but as something that complements rather than replaces traditional media such as television and billboards. Given their recent tribulations over personal data, the Silicon Valley giants were eager to peddle the same conciliatory narrative.

EU Crackdown Hasn’t Made U.S. Tech Change Its Behavior
A pattern is emerging in the war between the European Union’s antitrust authorities and U.S. tech companies. The changes that Google and Apple made after adverse rulings and large fines appear to be little but window-dressing, and left intact the problems the penalties were intended to solve. In June 2017, the European Commission fined Google 2.4 billion euros ($2.8 billion) for giving priority to its price comparison service, Google Shopping, over rival services in search results.

Reuters•yesterdayWall Street Week Ahead: Supercharged telecom sector could become investor favorite
An overhauled telecommunications sector featuring most of the so-called FANG stocks could debut as Wall Street's hottest bet when it kicks off in September, boosted by a rising wave of media and television acquisitions. Long viewed as stodgy stocks for dividend-oriented investors, the telecom services sector (.SPLRCL) will be renamed communications services and supercharged with the addition of Facebook (FB.O), Netflix (NFLX.O) and Google-owner Alphabet (GOOGL.O) - three of the four FANGs, along with Amazon - as well as other companies that have driven the stock market to record highs in recent years. The changes are part of the largest-ever shakeup of the stock market's broad business categories.
