Editor's picks: Trade war tensions for Apple; transition challenges for Lenovo

Ongoing trade tensions between the U.S. and China should not have a significant impact on sales of Apple Inc.'s newest iPhones, but still pose a risk to the tech giant's long-term position in China, analysts said. China recently hit back against U.S. President Donald Trump's intentions to slap tariffs on an additional $300 billion of Chinese goods, announcing plans to impose its own tariffs on $75 billion worth of U.S. products.

Taken together, a merged ViacomCBS would have generated enough in domestic ad sales to eclipse NBCUniversal Media LLC's industry-leading $2.26 billion ad haul.

Data Dispatch: Viacom, CBS chiefs stand to reap big rewards post-merger

The heads of Viacom and CBS both stand to cash in on the pending merger of the two companies, propelling them up the ranks of the most highly compensated U.S. media network bosses. Viacom President and CEO Bob Bakish's total compensation in fiscal 2018 ranked on the lower end of his peers, while CBS President and acting CEO Joe Ianniello's compensation was more middle of the pack, according to an analysis of compensation data by S&P Market Global Intelligence.

A federal appeals court ruled on Aug. 8 that a facial recognition class-action lawsuit contending that Facebook Inc. violated Illinois' biometric privacy law can move forward.
