Vistry sees uncertain outlook as affordability, economic concerns loom
(Reuters) -Vistry, Britain's largest homebuilder by output, said on Wednesday market conditions remain uncertain this year as the housing sector grapples with affordability and broader economic woes, while maintaining its 2024 earnings forecast. The FTSE 250 builder, which generates most of its sales through partnerships with local authorities, housing associations and government providers, said the outcome of a government spending review and the transition to a new affordable programme would be crucial in driving the market. The pace of recovery in the British housing sector is under scrutiny as a slower-than-expected reduction in interest rates hampers affordability, while tax hikes, an impending rise in labour costs and fears the UK government could reduce spending have dampened the economic outlook.

South Korean investigators question arrested President Yoon in insurrection probe
SEOUL (Reuters) -Impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol was arrested and questioned by authorities on Wednesday in relation to a criminal insurrection investigation, saying he was only cooperating with what he called an illegal probe to avoid violence. His arrest, the first ever for an incumbent South Korean president, is the latest head-spinning development for one of Asia's most vibrant democracies even though the country has a history of prosecuting and imprisoning former leaders. Since lawmakers voted to impeach him and remove him from duties after his short-lived Dec. 3 declaration of martial law, Yoon has been holed up at his hillside residence, guarded by a small army of presidential security that blocked a previous arrest attempt.

Exclusive-Meta warns India antitrust ruling could force roll back of features, hurt business
Meta may have to "roll back or pause" some features in India due to an antitrust directive which banned its WhatsApp messaging service from sharing user data with Meta for advertising purposes, according to a court filing by the U.S. company seen by Reuters. Meta is seeking to quash the Competition Commission of India's (CCI) November directive which found the company abused its dominance and "coerced" WhatsApp users into accepting a 2021 privacy policy which allegedly expanded user data collection and sharing, giving it an unfair advantage over rivals. The CCI has imposed a fine of $24.5 million and a five-year ban on the data sharing practice in India, the biggest market for Meta where it has more than 350 million Facebook users and over 500 million people using WhatsApp.
