Affle 3i shares surge over 5% today after key update on Bobble investment and legal action
By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on June 10, 2025, 09:31 IST Shares of Affle 3i Ltd surged over 5% on Tuesday, June 10, reaching ₹1,970.00, following a crucial update regarding the company's ongoing legal and investment matters with Talent Unlimited Online Services Private Limited (Bobble). The stock emerged as one of the top gainers on NSE, climbing ₹101.30 from its previous close of ₹1,868.70. In a regulatory filing dated June 9, Affle 3i announced that its Investment Committee will convene on June 16, 2025, to assess the current status of its investment in Bobble. The company had earlier flagged Bobble for recurring financial losses, suspected fraudulent transactions, regulatory non-compliance, and potential data leakage involving entities linked to China. Affle had previously classified this investment as 'Held For Sale' and is now pursuing legal enforcement of its rights. Despite a court mandate and an arbitration ruling directing Bobble to comply with inspection rights, the startup has allegedly failed to cooperate. Affle has since filed an execution petition with the Delhi High Court and is also supporting the Enforcement Directorate's probe into Bobble under FEMA. The sharp stock movement reflects investor optimism regarding Affle's assertive legal stance and its commitment to corporate governance and transparency.

Institutions profited after AUTO1 Group SE's (ETR:AG1) market cap rose €259m last week but retail investors profited the most
Significant control over AUTO1 Group by retail investors implies that the general public has more power to influence management and governance-related decisions A total of 11 investors have a majority stake in the company with 51% ownership 34% of AUTO1 Group is held by Institutions Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. Every investor in AUTO1 Group SE (ETR:AG1) should be aware of the most powerful shareholder groups. And the group that holds the biggest piece of the pie are retail investors with 44% ownership. That is, the group stands to benefit the most if the stock rises (or lose the most if there is a downturn). While retail investors were the group that reaped the most benefits after last week's 5.0% price gain, institutions also received a 34% cut. Let's delve deeper into each type of owner of AUTO1 Group, beginning with the chart below. Check out our latest analysis for AUTO1 Group Many institutions measure their performance against an index that approximates the local market. So they usually pay more attention to companies that are included in major indices. We can see that AUTO1 Group does have institutional investors; and they hold a good portion of the company's stock. This implies the analysts working for those institutions have looked at the stock and they like it. But just like anyone else, they could be wrong. If multiple institutions change their view on a stock at the same time, you could see the share price drop fast. It's therefore worth looking at AUTO1 Group's earnings history below. Of course, the future is what really matters. Our data indicates that hedge funds own 13% of AUTO1 Group. That's interesting, because hedge funds can be quite active and activist. Many look for medium term catalysts that will drive the share price higher. Cadian Capital Management, LP is currently the largest shareholder, with 13% of shares outstanding. Hkvv GmbH is the second largest shareholder owning 9.1% of common stock, and Coronation Fund Managers Limited holds about 5.0% of the company stock. After doing some more digging, we found that the top 11 have the combined ownership of 51% in the company, suggesting that no single shareholder has significant control over the company. Researching institutional ownership is a good way to gauge and filter a stock's expected performance. The same can be achieved by studying analyst sentiments. There are plenty of analysts covering the stock, so it might be worth seeing what they are forecasting, too. The definition of an insider can differ slightly between different countries, but members of the board of directors always count. Management ultimately answers to the board. However, it is not uncommon for managers to be executive board members, especially if they are a founder or the CEO. I generally consider insider ownership to be a good thing. However, on some occasions it makes it more difficult for other shareholders to hold the board accountable for decisions. Our data cannot confirm that board members are holding shares personally. It is unusual not to have at least some personal holdings by board members, so our data might be flawed. A good next step would be to check how much the CEO is paid. With a 44% ownership, the general public, mostly comprising of individual investors, have some degree of sway over AUTO1 Group. While this group can't necessarily call the shots, it can certainly have a real influence on how the company is run. It seems that Private Companies own 9.1%, of the AUTO1 Group stock. It's hard to draw any conclusions from this fact alone, so its worth looking into who owns those private companies. Sometimes insiders or other related parties have an interest in shares in a public company through a separate private company. While it is well worth considering the different groups that own a company, there are other factors that are even more important.

Musk is leaving the government. Trump is keeping 2 things.
President Donald Trump said he plans to keep the White House's Starlink internet service and Tesla vehicle he bought. "I may move the Tesla around a little bit, but I don't think we'll be doing that with Starlink. It's a good service," Trump told reporters on Monday. He did not specify where the Tesla vehicle could be moved. "I have a lot of locations. I had so many locations that I don't know what to do with them all," Trump said on Monday. Trump was speaking at the Invest America Roundtable event when he was asked about his relationship with Elon Musk, who runs Tesla and Starlink parent company SpaceX. Musk was a prominent backer and supporter of Trump, but their relationship appeared to break down last week. Musk publicly kicked off the row by criticizing Trump's signature tax bill. He also agreed with an X post that called for Trump's impeachment before deleting it. In March, The New York Times reported that the White House had installed Musk's satellite internet service. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told The Times that Starlink would "improve Wi-Fi connectivity on the complex." Trump bought a red Tesla Model S during a White House event in March. He said the purchase was a show of support for Musk. On Thursday, Trump told reporters that he was "very disappointed" at Musk's recent behavior. The president later threatened to cancel the subsidies and contracts that Musk's businesses had received from the government, calling it "the easiest way to save money in our Budget." A senior White House official confirmed to Business Insider on Friday that Trump was considering selling or giving away the car. Trump struck a more conciliatory tone on Monday. "Look, I wish him well. You understand? We had a good relationship, and I just wish him well," Trump told reporters. But when asked if he would speak to Musk soon, Trump said he had not thought about it. "I can imagine he wants to speak to me. I would think so. If I were him, I would want to speak to me and maybe he also already called. You have to ask him whether or not he has already called. But I would have no problem with it," Trump said. The White House, Tesla, and SpaceX did not respond to requests for comment from BI.
