Supercell, the Finnish studio behind hit mobile games like Clash Royale and Brawl Stars, is bringing its titles to WeChat as mini games—no download required. Brawl Stars is already live, and Clash Royale is coming in September. This move taps into WeChat’s massive Chinese audience, giving Supercell a direct line to millions of potential players.

Editor’s Note: This is a smart play for Supercell. WeChat isn’t just an app—it’s a digital lifeline in China, with over a billion users. By skipping app stores and going straight to mini games, Supercell removes friction for players and could see a huge spike in engagement. For Tencent (which owns Supercell), it’s another way to keep users glued to WeChat. Win-win.

Lockheed Martin is keeping its shareholders happy by announcing a steady quarterly dividend of $3.30 per share for Q3 2025. This isn’t a surprise—it’s business as usual for the defense giant, signaling stability and confidence in its financials.

Editor’s Note: Dividends might not be the flashiest news, but they’re a big deal for investors. Lockheed’s consistency here suggests they’re on solid footing, even amid broader economic uncertainty. For shareholders, it’s a reassuring nod that the company isn’t tightening its belt—at least not yet. For everyone else, it’s a quiet reminder of how entrenched defense contractors are in the economy.

Tesla's much-hyped robotaxi, which is supposed to be a fully autonomous ride-hailing vehicle, has been caught making a bunch of driving errors during tests in Texas. From awkward lane changes to hesitating at intersections, the footage shows the tech isn’t quite ready for prime time—despite Elon Musk’s bold promises.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly urged for the corruption trial against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to be dropped, calling it politically motivated. Trump, a longtime ally of Netanyahu, framed the legal proceedings as unfair and damaging to U.S.-Israel relations.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about legal drama—it’s a high-stakes political move. Trump’s intervention adds fuel to an already contentious case, raising questions about foreign influence on Israel’s judiciary. For Netanyahu, whose political survival hinges on this trial, Trump’s support could rally his base but also deepen divisions over the fairness of the legal process. Meanwhile, critics see it as another example of Trump undermining judicial independence, both at home and abroad.
