The gold price
The unrest in the world is pushing gold to record levels

For the first time, gold is trading above the $2,700 level per ounce. It can be compared to January 1 this year when the price was 2⁠ 064 dollars per ounce.

The rush of the last few days comes after unrest in the Middle East and an even situation in the US presidential election, which causes investors to flee to safety, writes Bloomberg. This year's increases can also be explained by the initiation of interest rate cuts and continued large trade in gold from central banks.

Tesla's future
Tesla's self-driving technology is being investigated after fatal accident
 
Tesla's self-driving technology is being investigated in the US after four traffic accidents - one of which was fatal. Bloomberg reports.

It is the traffic safety authority NHTSA that will investigate whether the technology is good enough at detecting obstacles when visibility is limited. In the four accidents under investigation, visibility was limited.

Just a week ago, CEO Elon Musk launched the driverless taxi Cybercab. He has said that the development of self-driving cars in the long run will make "the difference between whether Tesla is worth a lot of money or almost nothing," writes the news agency.

Amazon boss: Anyone who wants to work at home can change jobs

Those unhappy with Amazon's new five-day-a-week office presence policy can look for a new job. This was said by subsidiary AWS CEO Matt Garman in a recent internal meeting, according to CNBC.

- If there are people who don't work well in that environment and don't want to, that's okay, there are other companies to apply to, he said according to a transcript that the channel saw.

Amazon has found that employees collaborate better and are more efficient when they are in the office, a spokesperson told CNBC.
