The Daily Money
 
Tuesday, May 4

Good morning, Daily Money readers. It's Lindsay filling in for Nathan today. Big news from the tech world: 

Philanthropic powerhouses Bill and Melinda Gates will divorce after 27 years, but will remain working together on their global health and development foundation. Bill, who is 65, is No. 4 on the Forbes Billionaires list.

And there's more upheaval along the tech supply chain. Shortages of microchips are holding up production of vehicles, including popular pickup trucks. Thousands were parked in Kentucky this weekend, awaiting those parts. So while the horses ran at the Derby, these beasts stayed put. 

Meanwhile, here's the rest of your tech and money news:
