Bloomberg analysis reveals that Volkswagen has reported death and injury claims at a rate nine times lower than other manufacturers like General Motors. While GM reported 524 incidents per million vehicles, VW claimed only 34. The hosts suggest this indicates a pattern of deceptive self-reporting by the German automaker beyond the known emissions cheating scandal.

The UK Express warns that meat and dairy prices could rise by 20% as farmers in Brazil and Argentina shift toward genetically modified soya, which is banned in Europe.

General Motors reported a massive $28 billion quarterly loss, prompting questions about the company's financial structure.
