Last week memory chip maker Micron Technology warned of tougher times and said it was cutting its capex investments in fiscal 2023 by over 30% to a total of $8 billion. Nvidia Corp and Intel Corp both delivered much worse than expected earnings in their latest reports.

For most of its history MG - also known as Morris Garages - was associated with British open-top roadsters but that changed with the collapse of Rover in 2005, which saw the Chinese state-owned SAIC group take over.

'Mr Carey is prescribed anti-inflammatories and pain killing medicine to help manage the significant pain caused by debilitating football injuries - including a shoulder that needs replacing and a neck injury that requires three discs to be replaced,' he said upon taking up the Carey case. 

Runaway inflation and the reopening of offices and schools have led people to spend less on PCs than they did during lockdowns when many bought computers for work and school as they stayed home during the pandemic.

"I think AMD is showing that nobody is safe from the post-pandemic PC downturn, and those inventory corrections are also impacting the company," said Anshel Sag, chip analyst at Moor Insights & Strategy.

Oct 6 (Reuters) - Chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices Inc on Thursday provided third-quarter revenue estimates that were about a billion dollars less than previously forecast, signaling the chip slump could be much worse than expected.

Speaking about the Ukrainian rout of Russian troops that prompted Putin to make his nuclear threats and conscript civilians into the military, the source added: 'What were we doing in Kharkiv?
No one has a clue.'

Putin now appears to have largely given up on his plans to advance and is instead digging in his heels and trying to hold on to territory he has already taken in the hopes of playing off the war to the Russian people as a success.

Ukraine then launched two counter-attacks in Kherson and Kharkiv in August, the first of which is making slow but steady progress and the second of which achieved a major breakthrough that has placed Russia on the back foot.

Anton Gerashchenko, a senior adviser to the Ukrainian government, posted footage online Sunday purporting to be from the town of Zolota Balka in southern Kherson region, showing a flag-waving soldier posing with civilians.

It means that Putin's troops are now losing ground in three out of the four Ukrainian regions he annexed last week - declaring that any attack on them would be considered an attack on Russia and may trigger a nuclear response.

Kyiv's troops are attacking down the west bank of the Dnipro River and have taken the town of  Zolota Balka, it was reported Monday, amid claims from pro-Kremlin sources that troops had retreated as far as Dudchany, around 15 miles further south.

That would likely force the war to a stalemate from which Putin would hope to secure a ceasefire deal, allowing him to rebuild his armed forces and attack again - as he did after annexing Crimea from Ukraine in 2014. 

Ukraine's western backers have also vowed never to respect the land-grab - the largest in Europe since the Second World War - and say there will be no let-up in weapons supplies, despite Putin's threats to go nuclear.
