MARKETPLACE: We have two stories today of what it’s like getting by when a global crisis is playing out around you: First, our China reporter tells us about life in locked-down Shanghai. Then, a 75-year-old Ukrainian refugee finds shelter in Poland. Stateside, we’ll take a closer look at the Federal Reserve’s toolkit, examine new data on the gender wage gap and explain what an inverted yield curve is.
MARKETPLACE TECH: European Union lawmakers recently unveiled the Digital Markets Act, which aims to limit the power of “gatekeepers” — companies so big and popular that they shape entire industries — like the tech companies behind messaging apps. One rule would require that apps be “interoperable” with one another, so a startup, for instance, could let its users send messages to people using Apple’s iMessage or Meta’s WhatsApp seamlessly. Companies that don’t comply would face steep penalties — up to 20% of their global revenue. Alex Heath covers tech and internet platforms at The Verge. He laid out some of the pros and cons of the proposal.
