THREE NEWS YOU CAN’T MISS

Tiktok’s parent company Bytedance is valued at $300 billion, according to information provided to the Wall Street Journal. This corresponds to close to SEK 3,300 billion.
The valuation is the company’s own, and one of the highest ever for a Chinese technology company. In October 2023, the valuation, according to the newspaper, was 225 billion dollars.
Bytedance is under pressure in the US, where the authorities demand that Tiktok be sold to an American owner by mid-January at the latest. Otherwise, the app may be banned in the country. Donald Trump has previously been in favor of a Tiktok ban but has recently suggested that it is a bad idea.
The clock is ticking for battery manufacturer Northvolt. For several months now, the company has been chasing money for its financing.
This week it was reported that Northvolt is leaning towards reconstruction in the US, something that several sources stated for Dagens Industri. It is about a so-called chapter 11 procedure in the USA, which can be described as a reconstruction process.
Now writes the Financial Times that Northvolt’s fate could be close as early as next week, citing a source, who adds that the company has written its value down to zero. The newspaper writes that a person with insight says that chapter-11 is still possible.
– Even bankruptcy is still an option, says the source to the FT.
According to the Gaza Ministry of Health, at least 72 people have been killed after a residential building was attacked by Israel in Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza, writes Al Jazeera.
The building is said to have been home to six families.
Dozens have been injured and the civil defense states that they cannot get to the scene, writes the news channel.

The police moved out with several units due to a suspected hand grenade in Västerås on Sunday morning.
They cordoned off the area, checked the object and contacted the bomb squad for assessment.
But it wasn’t a hand grenade – but a chew toy for dogs.
According to the police, it must have been designed to resemble a hand grenade.
“The chew toy is deemed to be harmless and intended for play,” the police write on their website.
Twelve people have been killed in Israeli airstrikes in Gaza during the night and into Sunday, according to the hospital in Deir al-Balah that received the dead.
According to the information, six people have been killed in Nuseirat and four others in al-Bureij in central Gaza. Another two are said to have been killed on a highway.
However, the data on deaths differ. Civil Defense spokesman Mahmud Bassal told AFP that at least 20 people have been killed in Israeli attacks in Gaza, among them three children.
According to Bassal, ten of them were killed in the attack in al-Bureij in central Gaza. Dozens of others were injured, according to the data.

The fact that four out of ten social secretaries have been subjected to threats or violence is against democracy, says Social Services Minister Camilla Waltersson Grönvall (M).
– It is very worrying, she says and opens talks with the trade unions about the situation.
Novus’ recent survey paints a dark picture. About four out of ten, 38 percent, of the surveyed social secretaries around Sweden state that they have been subjected to threats or violence during the last two-year period.
– No one should have to be exposed in their workplace, says Camilla Waltersson Grönvall (M) to TT.
– It is also a threat to Swedish democracy. Because it is very worrying if necessary decisions to protect children and young people are not taken.

Super typhoon Man-yi has reached the Philippines’ main island of Luzon, where meteorologists warn of a “potentially dangerous” situation. The island is the Philippines’ most densely populated and the country’s economic hub.
On its way there, the storm crossed the island of Catanduanes, where trees were uprooted, houses destroyed and power lines knocked down. Sustained winds of over 50 meters per second and gusts of over 63 meters per second have been measured on Sunday.
Initially, no deaths have been reported, perhaps thanks to the massive evacuation, where hundreds of thousands of people have left their homes.
