The journey to triggering the highly controversial Brexit outcome made some progress as Parliament approved related legislation enabling the Prime Minister to commence negotiations. Rather early to draw conclusions, but the British people are already recording an increase in prices of items at the supermarket and some impact to the value of the Pound.

In the same week, Intel announced the largest acquisition in Israel’s history, paying $15.3 billion for tech company, Mobileye, in an effort to expand into self-driving tech. The last purchase of an Israeli company of close magnitude was Google’s acquisition of the social navigation company, Waze, in 2013, at $1.3 billion.

All of these and news about Samsung South Korea’s detained Chief, Lee Jae-Yong, and Turkish President’s comments about the Netherland’s barring of Turkish politicking in Rotterdam in the featured video.
