[$$] Facebook Morale Takes a Tumble Along With Stock Price
Facebook Inc.’s difficult year is taking a toll on employee morale, with several key measures of internal sentiment taking a sharp turn for the worse over the past year, according to people familiar with the matter and messages reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. Amid a plunge in the stock price, ongoing leadership turmoil and critical media coverage, just over half of employees said they were optimistic about Facebook’s future, down 32 percentage points from the year earlier, according to the survey, which was taken by nearly 29,000 employees. Fifty-three percent said Facebook was making the world better, down 19 percentage points from a year ago.

Technology investors fear regulators' net
Increased regulation of U.S. technology companies is one of the biggest risks to a sector that has led stocks higher, potentially derailing the market's near-decade-long bull run if it suffers a sustained selloff. Speaking at the Reuters Global Investment 2019 Outlook Summit in New York, Pacific Investment Management Co Global Economic Advisor Joachim Fels said potential increased regulation of social media companies remains one of the major downside risks to higher equities. "It is something to focus on as a risk because tech has been leading the stock market," said Fels.

Facebook Could Face Tax Issues in the EU Like Apple Did
The European Union may open a probe into Facebook’s (FB) tax deals with Ireland, according to Politico. Probes into the tax affairs of several American multinationals have resulted in huge fines in Europe. A probe into Apple’s tax deals with Ireland resulted in the company being ordered to pay around $15 billion in back taxes. And last year, Amazon (AMZN) was ordered to pay nearly $300 million in back taxes to Luxembourg, following a European Commission probe that faulted Amazon’s tax arrangement with Luxembourg. Both Apple and Amazon deny wrongdoing.

The Political Split That Will Determine Brexit
The U.K. Prime Minister has also handed Labour an equally difficult choice: The outcome will decide whether she gets her way. For vocal Brexiters like Boris Johnson and Jacob Rees-Mogg, anything short of a total break from all EU rules and institutions is a betrayal of the Brexit referendum. As lawmakers prepare to vote on May’s plan, the opposition is faced with a choice it can only hate: Either it supports a government it wants to replace, or votes against a deal that offers the country its best chance of an orderly Brexit.

Why Facebook Delayed Roll-Out of New Checks for UK Political Ads
Facebook (FB) has delayed the rollout of a requirement that people or organizations buying British political ads on its platforms verify their identity and disclose who is funding the campaigns.

The rally in tech names, especially the FAANG stocks including Facebook (FB) and Netflix (NFLX), has been a pillar of support for markets (SPY). However, some of the technology names that helped drive markets have seen selling pressure after a strong first half of 2018. Apple and Amazon (AMZN) crossed the $1 trillion market capitalization in 2018. While Amazon might give away its gains soon, Apple didn’t hold onto the trophy.
