Biden "disappeared" from the search results for "President of the United States", Google responded: data error

According to reports from foreign media, a netizen posted on X platform on Thursday that when searching for keywords such as "US Presidents" and "US Presidents in order" on Google, the term of former US President Biden was completely ignored. The search results showed that Trump was the most recent two-term US president, while Biden's name was nowhere to be found. However, the list of presidents before Trump took office in 2016 was correct, including Obama, Bush, and Clinton, all the way back to the first US President, Washington. Although Google has found the root cause and quickly resolved the issue, no one knows how long Biden has been "disappeared" from search results. Google admitted the mistake and attributed it to "data errors."

    On September 30, the Federal Reserve Board voted 6-1 to approve revisions to the annual stress tests, which is seen as a significant victory for large lending institutions on Wall Street. Vice Chair for Supervision, Michelle Bowman, stated that stress tests are a crucial component of the regulatory capital framework, and the reforms enhance transparency, specificity, and risk sensitivity, thereby maintaining their robustness. The Federal Reserve noted that the two finalized rules are largely consistent with those proposed in 2025, which were welcomed by the banking sector at the time. The stress tests were established after the 2008 financial crisis to assess the resilience of Wall Street institutions under hypothetical economic recession scenarios. Additionally, the Federal Reserve solicited feedback on a plan aimed at better reflecting the differences in banks' fee income business models.
