Meta described the initial engagement as markedly stronger than its trials, prompting the immediate uptick in the stock price in premarket trade.

Emerging markets are enjoying an unusually strong period as global investment in AI infrastructure lifts corporate profit forecasts. Analysts this year raised earnings estimates for companies in the MSCI Emerging Markets index by a record 65%, the fastest pace of upward revisions in the history of the series. The surge in forecasts reflects heightened capital spending and demand tied to AI development worldwide, supporting a broad set of firms included in the MSCI EM benchmark. The scale and speed of the revisions mark a notable shift in investor expectations for the region's corporate profitability in 2026. Observers say the phenomenon highlights how large-scale technology investment can re‑rate earnings outlooks across markets, with emerging-market companies among the fastest beneficiaries of this cycle. #AI #EmergingMarkets #MSCI #FiatNews
ČEZ has received approval from the State Office for Nuclear Safety (SÚJB) to use nuclear fuel supplied by U.S. company Westinghouse at the Temelín nuclear power plant.

The decision allows Temelín to incorporate Westinghouse-produced fuel into its reactor operations. Westinghouse is an American nuclear fuel supplier; ČEZ is the operator of the Temelín plant. The SÚJB permission is a regulatory step required before any change in fuel source can be implemented. #ČEZ #Westinghouse #Temelín #nuclear #FiatNews
A developer who trained models for both OpenAI and Anthropic is leaving the AI sector and has warned against underestimating related risks, according to a report dated 9 September 2026.

The brief report says they are stepping away from the field and flagging that risks around advanced AI are being downplayed. Details in the published excerpt are limited, but the move adds a first‑hand account to ongoing public and policy discussions about AI safety and oversight. #OpenAI #Anthropic #ChatGPT #Claude #AI #FiatNews
On 9 September 2026 U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent sharply intensified his rhetoric toward investors wagering on a weaker Japanese yen, signaling a tougher stance after August’s coordinated intervention by the United States and Japan. Bessent said he aims to halt what he described as “attacks” on the yen and curb speculative positions that bet on further currency weakness. Speaking after the joint intervention in August, he warned that traders attempting to short the yen are effectively speculating against policymakers who have detailed information on the next steps of both countries. The comment underlines Washington’s readiness to confront market strategies it sees as undermining policy efforts. Bessent’s remarks come amid heightened attention to FX interventions and the interplay between official policy actions and private-market speculation. #yen #USDJPY #Bessent #FiatNews
Czech minimum wage to rise sharply next year, increasing from CZK 22,400 to CZK 24,900, an 11.2% jump. The change was announced in early September 2026 and will apply to the coming calendar year. The rise is expected to affect a substantial portion of the economy; wage floors feed through into pay for many low‑paid workers and are therefore closely watched by policymakers. Czech central bankers and market analysts are monitoring the development and its implications for inflation and labour costs. Observers say the focus will be on how the increase transmits into broader wages, consumer prices and public finances, and how those dynamics influence policymaking going forward. #MinimumWage #CzechRepublic #Economy #CZK #FiatNews
