One of China's leading EV startups, Xpeng, gained approval this week to list on the New York Stock Exchange. The Alibaba-backed company founded in 2014 is bringing an impressive P7 sport sedan to market this autumn that does everything it can (and more) to replicate the Tesla Model 3. The P7 has many Tesla-like performance chops, including range (416 miles), speed (0-60 in 4.4 seconds) and an autonomous drive system (powered by Nvidia) with self parking and summons features. If you have watched Tesla's stock go sky-high and have a fear of missing out, you will want to take a closer look at Tesla.

Nvidia is the new powerhouse in chips, AI and connected car technologies. The company now carries a value higher than Intel and twice that of Qualcomm.

Southeast Asia is a regional grouping of 10 countries that differ enormously in terms of incomes, political systems, languages, histories and religions. Singapore is home to more millionaires than any other nation in the world. Myanmar, in contrast, is one of the world's poorest countries. One thing they have in common is tech savviness - more than 360 million are active internet users - more than the entire US population. Background: Southeast Asia refers to a collection of nations with 450 million people that is situated south of China and east of India. The countries are: Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.
