A US court has given Microsoft the green light to buy the videogame maker Activision Blizzard in a deal worth $69bn. Microsoft said after the US win, it would focus on resolving concerns around competition in the UK. The tech giant's merger with the Call of Duty owner would be the biggest deal of its kind in gaming industry history.

Bank of America has been ordered to pay out $150m (拢116m) in penalties after it was found to have opened credit cards without customers' permission.
