Airbus and Qatar Airways have settled a dispute over the safety of grounded A350 jets, the companies said on Wednesday, averting a potentially damaging UK court trial following a blistering 18-month feud that captivated rivals. The "amicable and mutually agreeable settlement" ends a $2 billion row over damage to the surface of Europe's premier long-haul jet - an unprecedented public spat which had led to the withdrawal of billions of dollars of Qatar jet deals by Airbus. Those orders - for 23 undelivered A350s and 50 smaller and in-demand A321neos - have been restored under the new deal, though Qatar will get the A321neos three years later than originally scheduled in 2026, with the A350s resuming in 2023.

The warning came after news of an agreement by the Netherlands and Japan to curb chipmaking exports to China to align with rules the Biden Administration imposed in October.

NEW YORK (Reuters) -A U.S. judge on Wednesday temporarily barred FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried from contacting current or former employees of the cryptocurrency exchange or his Alameda Research hedge fund, and from using encrypted messaging tools including Signal. The ruling by U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan came after federal prosecutors in Manhattan said Bankman-Fried might tamper with witnesses or destroy evidence in his criminal fraud case.

At hotels, the train station and malls across the city, taxi drivers waiting for fares are glued to their phones — enrapt by the long-awaited industry lawsuit against the City of Ottawa.

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.
