Members of the United Auto Workers' (UAW) union picket and hold signs outside a Ford assembly plant in Wayne, Michigan, on the first day of a historic strike that is ordering simultaneous stoppages at Detroit's "Big Three" for the first time. The dramatic walkout -- marked outside a Detroit-area Ford plant with rowdy honking and cheers at the arrival of the United Auto Workers' leader -- came after a last-minute push by General Motors, Ford and Stellantis failed to produce an agreement before a contract's expiration.

South Korean tech giant Samsung announced that it would be permanently stopping production of the Galaxy Note 7 smartphone. The decision to cease production came after reports that the devices were unsafe and had been catching fire. Owners of the phone are expected to be able to get a refund or exchange it for another Samsung phone. Samsung already made a voluntary global recall of 2.5 million Galaxy Note 7 phones in September, in response to reports which claimed that the batteries caught fire.
