There are some key things that retirement savers should steer clear of doing with their 401(k), despite uncertainty over exactly when the stock market will recoup its losses and head higher.

As markets careeen amid coronavirus-fueled economic volatility, financial advisors are at the eye of the storm. We asked five members of the CNBC Financial Advisor Council what they're telling clients, whether they're helping them reallocate and how the downturn is impacting their own fortunes.

While financial advisors must continue being proactive in helping clients maintain financial well-being during the coronavirus pandemic and downturn, the most effective advisors are managing their clients' emotional well-being, as well.

Three financial advisors share how they have helped clients apply for emergency funding through the Paycheck Protection Program, and sought aid for their practices.

As a doctors’ and nurses’ strike paralyses Zimbabwe’s health system, one woman has delivered 100 babies in her flat

•Photographs by Cynthia R Matonhodze

Six expectant mothers groan through their labour pains in the lounge of a tiny two-roomed apartment in Mbare, Zimbabwe’s oldest township.

Sweating and visibly in pain, a heavily pregnant woman peeps through the window to catch a breath while others lie on the floor.

Time is running out if you're receiving SSI or VA benefits and want to make sure your children under 17 are included in your stimulus payments. You have just until tomorrow to report your information to the IRS. But beware: Some people have already complained that their checks fall short.

Health savings accounts, or HSAs, will cover Covid-19-related testing and treatment, among other things.

From a drop in income to the inability to pay bills, young adults are facing obstacles they weren't necessarily expecting.

The U.S. government is sending millions of $1,200 checks out to Americans, some of whom have passed away. Now, the IRS has released instructions for how families of the deceased can return that money.

To help bolster the economy, the White House is weighing a variety of measures, including the possibility of extending the tax deadline to September or even December.

As co-founder and creative director of her own fashion line, Rebecca Minkoff understands the current struggles small-business owners are now facing — especially women. Here's her advice on how to survive.

New guidance from the IRS makes it clear that stimulus checks cut to deceased people must be returned. But what about those who die from the coronavirus? That depends on the timing of the deaths and receipt of the checks.

If you want to get your $1,200 stimulus check more quickly, you need to make sure the government has your bank account information on file. But time is running out. You now have until noon on May 13 to enter that data.

Campaigners warn Shafiqul Islam Kajol faces a lengthy sentence as his family worries about his exposure to Covid-19 in prison

• Coronavirus – latest updates
• See all our coronavirus coverage

Fifty-three days after he disappeared, Bangladeshi journalist Shafiqul Islam Kajol turned up on Sunday in police custody at a border town 150 miles from where he had last been seen.

“I am alive,” he told his son by phone, the first time the family had heard his voice since his disappearance in early March, a day after a case was filed against him and 31 others under the country’s controversial new Digital Security Act.

Amazon have arrived in force in rapidly expanding Hyderabad, with designs on the currently almost non-existent Indian e-commence market

The futuristic lobby of the new Amazon building in Hyderabad feels as though it should have a permanent orchestra blasting out Also Sprach Zarathustra. The scale is intended to awe. A large slogan on a wall suggests the company is “Delivering smiles”. The only sound that rises above the hush is a synthesised beep, coming from a giant screen playing a video of the campus at various stages of its construction.

Built on nine acres in this Indian city’s financial district, it is Amazon’s single largest building globally and the only Amazon-owned campus outside the US. It can house over 15,000 employees, but its size is its main architectural feature: it resembles the same cube of glass steel and chrome seen in corporate offices across Hyderabad, though a flash of magenta reflected in one of the top floor windows, from a billowing sari across the road, is a nice Indian touch.

The Senakw development aims to ease the city’s chronic housing crisis – and to challenge the mindset that indigeneity and urbanity are incompatible

The scrubby, vacant patch beneath the Burrard Street Bridge in Vancouver looks at first glance like a typical example of the type of derelict nook common to all cities: 11.7 acres of former railway lands, over which tens of thousands of people drive every day.

This is not any old swath of underused space, however. It’s one of Canada’s smallest First Nations reserves, where dozens of Squamish families once lived. The village was destroyed by provincial authorities more than a century ago.

Power struggle between Bashar al-Assad and first cousin sparks rare family fissure and leaves public aghast

A defiant tyrant and his ruthless wife square up against the family oligarch, with the spoils of a nation at stake. It could be standard Ramadan television fare, but not this year. Instead, all the intrigue of Syria’s ruling family has been laid out in a spectacular real-life drama that has gripped the country and the region.

Leading the cast is the Syrian leader, Bashar al-Assad, and Syria’s first lady, Asma al-Assad, but star billing has so far been taken by the president’s first cousin, Rami Makhlouf, who last week took to Facebook to do the unthinkable: air the normally inscrutable family’s dirty laundry.

Former staffer discusses allegation in in-depth interview with the former Fox News and NBC host

Tara Reade repeated her allegations of sexual assault against Joe Biden in an in-depth interview with Megyn Kelly released on Friday, answering questions on who she shared her story with and why she supported the former vice president publicly in the past.

Reade has accused Biden of sexually assaulting her in 1993, when she worked as an aide in his Senate office. She told Kelly, a former Fox News and NBC host who memorably sparred with Trump during the 2016 campaign over his treatment of women, that Biden pushed her against the wall in a Senate hallway and digitally penetrated her against her will.

Germany’s top coronavirus expert says children play as big a role as adults in spread

• Coronavirus – latest updates
• See all our coronavirus coverage

More countries across Europe are preparing to reopen schools in the coming weeks despite conflicting advice from scientists, some of whom caution against underestimating children’s potential to spread the coronavirus.

Some schools and nurseries in Denmark and Norway have already reopened, and grandparents in Switzerland are allowed to hug grandchildren under 10, following a ruling by the health ministry’s head of infectious diseases that it is safe to do so.

Quiet commemorations held to mark 75 years since end of war on continent

• VE Day – latest updates

Seventy-five years ago crowds massed in the streets of Europe, singing and dancing as their leaders announced the end of six years of bloody war. On Friday, the streets were empty, and leaders stood alone in silence at places of commemoration, as a continent marked the heroics of the war generation in the shadow of the coronavirus pandemic.

Long battery life, 4G and beautiful design can’t stop it being held back by a lack of apps for its ARM chip

The screen is far too dim on resuming from sleep until you hit the brightness button, at which point it returns to normal

The machine ran cool throughout, barely getting warmer than room temperature even when pushed hard

There’s no real mis-touch rejection at the edges of the screen, which means you have to be careful where you put your fingers when holding the tablet
