Only a blip, but Russia's Lavrov proposes Russia continue diplomatic work in European security push and stocks immediately respond positively.

Putin was advised by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Monday that Moscow should maintain its diplomatic stance as Ukraine tensions continue to escalate.

US initiatives to reduce military risks have been made, but European Union and NATO military alliance reactions have not been adequate according to Lavrov.

Moscow has repeatedly denied that it plans to invade Ukraine. Irresponsible and inflammatory media seems to disagree.(More)

Stock responds positively when Apple officially launched "Tap to Pay" today, a new iPhone feature that will allow businesses to accept payments from their handsets.

The new approach will function simply tapping phones together or using contactless credit cards, with no additional hardware required. Stripe will be the first payment provider to offer the service this spring, alongside Shopify's Point-of-Sale app, with more platforms and applications to follow later this year.

The move pits Apple against Block and other finance businesses like as PayPal, Verifone, and Ingenico. Apple was keen to point out that it will not be able to see what is being purchased or who is purchasing it. Payment data, according to the tech giant, is encrypted and safeguarded by the same technology that makes Apple Pay private and secure.(More)

The simplest and wisest course of action would be to combine with ViacomCBS in an all-stock deal.

The transaction may be highly accretive to current financial performance, provide Netflix with the leading cable-killer PlutoTV streaming asset, and offer up synergy opportunities with the top-rated CBS television network in the United States.

Netflix dropped 20% a few weeks ago after announcing new subscriber additions that just missed projections (8.28M vs. 8.5M) and issuing muted outlook for the current quarter.(More)
