PayPal President and CEO Dan Schulman told employees in an email Tuesday that the company is cutting its global workforce by 2,000 full-time employees, or about 7% of its workers, over the coming weeks. PayPal (ticker: PYPL) becomes the latest large employer to announce job cuts this year, in addition to earlier cuts by e-commerce companies Amazon.com (it is cutting 18,000 or more jobs), Shopify (SHOP) (cutting about 1,000 jobs), and Stripe (cutting about 1,000). PayPal’s stock, which is down nearly 54% over the past 12 months, rose more than 2% after Schulman’s memo was made public on the company’s website and closed up 2.3%.

When Jean Chalopin applied to buy a tiny bank in Washington state nearly three years ago, he made modest promises to bring not-so-new innovations such as ATM cards to a place with few local banking options. Farmington State Bank’s business plan wouldn’t change, Mr. Chalopin, a onetime TV and film producer who co-created the “Inspector Gadget” cartoon, assured federal regulators in documents viewed by The Wall Street Journal. It also got a new shareholder: Sam Bankman-Fried’s crypto-trading firm, Alameda Research LLC.
Tesla plans to step up output at its Shanghai plant over the next two months to meet demand ignited by aggressive price cuts on its best-selling models, according to a planning memo seen by Reuters and a person with knowledge of the plan. The automaker plans to produce a weekly average of nearly 20,000 units at its Shanghai factory in February and March, according to the memo, which detailed output plans for Tesla's most productive and profitable manufacturing hub. That level of production would take the plant's output to roughly its rate in September, when it turned out 82,088 Model 3 and Model Y cars, according to data from China Passenger Car Association.

While its investments in building materials manufacturer Louisiana Pacific and investment banking firm Jefferies Financial Group were familiar buys in the Berkshire investing mold and constituted relatively small investments, the third new portfolio addition was eye-catching. Berkshire Hathaway purchased 60 million shares of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (NYSE: TSM), which was worth approximately $4.1 billion at the time of publication of the investment conglomerate's most recent 13-F filing in November. The big buy made TSMC Berkshire Hathaway's 10th-largest overall stock holding and marked the first time that it had held a position in a pure-play semiconductor company since it exited a small position in Intel back in 2012.
This week, sportswear giant Nike filed a lawsuit accusing lululemon of infringing on its patents in the shoe line that the Vancouver-based activewear company launched last spring. After years of selling exclusively clothing, accessories and the odd yoga mat, lululemon expanded into the world of footwear with a running shoe it dubbed Blissfeel last March. According to the lawsuit filed in Manhattan federal court, certain knitted elements, webbing and tubular structures are too similar to ones that had been used by Nike earlier.
