(Bloomberg) -- Apple Inc. said top hardware executive Dan Riccio is stepping down from his role to lead a new project at the company and John Ternus, one of his top lieutenants, will replace him.Riccio has been senior vice president of hardware engineering since 2012, overseeing development of the hardware in the iPhone, iPad, Mac and audio products like the AirPods and HomePod. Ternus, who Bloomberg reported last year was poised to replace Riccio, has been vice president of hardware engineering since 2013, and was most recently leading the iPhone, Mac and iPad engineering groups.Riccio will remain at the company as a vice president of engineering and focus on a new project reporting to Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook, the Cupertino, California-based tech giant said Monday in a statement. “I’m looking forward to doing what I love most — focusing all my time and energy at Apple on creating something new and wonderful that I couldn’t be more excited about,” Riccio said in the statement.Apple didn’t specify Riccio’s new assignment, but the company has at least two major hardware initiatives in the works: a self-driving car and headsets for augmented reality and virtual reality. In his previous role, Apple’s head of AR and VR hardware reported to Riccio, while the car project was moved under the leadership of John Giannandrea, the company’s machine learning chief, last year.Apple is working on a consumer-oriented self-driving car, but it won’t launch for at least five to seven years, Bloomberg News reported earlier this month. Apple is however inching closer to announcing its first VR-focused headset as early as next year, whereas lightweight AR glasses won’t launch until several years later.Read more: Apple Plans High-End VR-Focused Headset as Prelude to AR GlassesRiccio joined Apple in 1998 and succeeded Bob Mansfield as hardware engineering chief nine years ago. When Mansfield left that job, he also remained at Apple and in 2016 became the head of the car project before retiring last year. Riccio briefly oversaw the car project in its early stages.Apple in recent years has pushed Ternus into the public eye. When the company was criticized several years ago because its Mac computers had been updated infrequently and lacked features demanded by professional users such as photo and video editors and app developers, Ternus was the prime executive responding to the complaints and pledging to improve the machines. In November, Ternus announced new Mac laptops that were the first to use company-designed chips.Read more: Apple Launches Three New Macs to Kick Off Switch From IntelA person who knows Ternus told Bloomberg in September that he is a well-respected manager who understands the technology, and despite his rising profile, has remained unassuming — all characteristics of a potential future company division head or even CEO.Around the beginning of 2020, Ternus’s responsibilities expanded to include the iPhone. Prior to that change, Riccio spent the bulk of his time on the handset, the product that generates the bulk of Apple’s sales. He also worked closely with Jony Ive, Apple’s former design chief who departed in 2019.Riccio is the second top executive to leave Apple’s leadership team in the past year while remaining at the company in another role. Phil Schiller, Apple’s former senior vice president, was named an Apple Fellow last year leading the App Store, public relations and the creation of Apple product announcements.Chief Operating Officer Jeff Williams remains the only holdover from the executive team that served under former CEO and co-founder the late Steve Jobs. Every member under Cook has been either promoted to or hired for the executive team since Cook was named CEO in 2011.(Updates with more context on Ternus transition in ninth paragraph.)For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2021 Bloomberg L.P.
Asian stocks came under pressure on Tuesday as worries about U.S. stimulus and surging coronavirus infections led to a mixed Wall Street session, while the dollar consolidated overnight gains. The choppy trade reflected concerns about new strains of the deadly virus, along with uncertainty about the $1.9 trillion U.S. fiscal stimulus plan that has hit opposition from Republicans in Congress. Those factors tempered earlier optimism stoked by the roll-out of vaccines and anticipation that new U.S. stimulus would give the world economy a much-needed fiscal shot in the arm.

(Bloomberg) -- Asian stocks slipped Tuesday after a choppy U.S. session as investors mulled the timing of further stimulus amid gains for technology shares. Treasury yields held overnight losses.Stocks saw modest declines in Japan and South Korea. Australian markets are shut for a holiday. S&P 500 futures dipped after the gauge closed higher, though gains were limited after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said an aid package was unlikely before mid-March and a U.S. health official expressed concern about vaccination delays. The Nasdaq 100 outperformed as investors awaited earnings from some of the biggest companies.Elsewhere, crude oil climbed toward $53 a barrel and gold was little changed. European stocks retreated earlier.With global stocks trading around record highs investors are looking for fresh catalysts to push them higher or at least justify current valuations. That could come from a slate of earnings reports due this week. Meanwhile, the possibility that a U.S. fiscal-relief package might be delayed is undercutting a key reason why Treasury yields climbed earlier this year.President Joe Biden said he’s open to negotiate on his $1.9 trillion Covid-19 relief proposal, and is hopeful to bring Republicans behind it, though didn’t rule out pursuing a Democrat-only route. Schumer said earlier Monday he aims to secure passage of the next round of relief by mid-March, just when jobless benefits from the last package will be running out.On the pandemic front, vaccine coverage won’t reach a point that would stop transmission of the virus in the foreseeable future, the World Health Organization said Monday.

BERLIN, Jan. 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dr. Georg Josef Pollert (the “Acquiror”), a director of Blue Star Gold Corp. (the “Company”) announces that, on January 25, 2021, he acquired ownership of 16,265,332 common shares ( “Shares”) of the Company. 15,265,332 Shares (the “Debt Settlement Shares”) were issued at a deemed price of $0.055 per Share, pursuant to a debt settlement relating to unsecured loan agreements (the “Loan Agreements”) entered into between the Company (as borrower) and the Acquiror (as lender) on December 19, 2018, March 10, 2019 and May 7, 2019 for an aggregate principal amount of $750,000 (the “Loans”). The Loans bore an annual simple interest rate of 7.5%. 1,000,000 Shares (the “New Bonus Shares”) were issued at a deemed price of $0.05 per Share, as bonus shares pursuant to the Loan Agreements. Immediately prior to the issuance of the Debt Settlement Shares and the New Bonus Shares, the Acquiror held 84,631,084 Shares, 1,500,000 incentive stock options (the “Options”), 63,500,000 share purchase warrants and 3,175 debentures (which are convertible into 63,500,000 Shares) (“Debentures”) and was conditionally entitled to receive a maximum of 3,000,000 bonus shares (the “Existing Bonus Shares”) under the terms of the Loan Agreements, and the Acquiror’s non-diluted shareholdings represented approximately 32.3% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares. As a result of the issuance of the Debt Settlement Shares and the New Bonus Shares, the Acquiror now holds 100,896,416 Shares, 1,500,000 Options, 76,000,000 share purchase warrants and 3,175 Debentures (convertible into 63,500,000 Shares) and is conditionally entitled to receive a maximum of 3,000,000 Existing Bonus Shares. The Acquiror’s non-diluted shareholdings now represent approximately 36.2% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares. Thus on a partially diluted basis (i.e., assuming full exercise of all share purchase warrants and Options, full conversion of all Debentures by the Acquiror, receipt by the Acquiror of the maximum number of Existing Bonus Shares, and no other issuances of Shares by the Company), the Acquiror would hold a total of 244,896,416 Shares, representing approximately 58.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares. The Debt Settlement Shares and the New Bonus Shares were acquired by the Acquiror for investment purposes. The Acquiror may increase or decrease his ownership of securities of the Company as the circumstances or market conditions warrant.
