The California Walnut's expensive... The $33M that Lumber Liquidators has to pay in penalties is expensive-r. The wood-seller was fined heavily for buying Chinese floorboards that were treated with Formaldehyde, a known carcinogen (and CBS cracked the case Scooby Doo style with a simple factory visit).

S-3-X-Y... The team's now complete after Tesla unveiled its 4th eDriving option: Model Y. With more Americans splurging on bigger cars, the Y's size sits snugly between its Model X (SUV) and 3 (sedan). But investors weren't impressed with Elon's "underwhelming" infomercial-style unveil.

Bring in das lawyers... Just after revealing it's going carbon neutral by 2050, Volkswagen got sued by the USA. The guys and gals at the SEC claim VW execs knew as far back as 2007 that they its emissions readings were lies. And since V-dub leaders didn't tell investors, that's fraud.
