AI Disruption Returns: Cybersecurity Stocks Tumble On Report Of New Anthropic "Step Change" AI Model Cybersecurity stocks are slumping in premarket trading on Friday as the AI disruption trade returns after a Fortune report said Anthropic is testing a new AI model that “poses significant cybersecurity risks.” According to the report, Anthropic is "developing and has begun testing with early access customers a new AI model more capable than any it has released previously," the company said, following a data leak that revealed the model’s existence. An Anthropic spokesperson said the new model represented “a step change” in AI performance and was “the most capable we’ve built to date.” The company said the model is currently being trialed by “early access customers.” Descriptions of the model were inadvertently stored in a publicly-accessible data cache and were reviewed by Fortune. A draft blog post that was available in an unsecured and publicly-searchable data store prior to Thursday evening said the new model is called “Claude Mythos” and that the company believes it poses unprecedented cybersecurity risks. Among notable movers this morning: CrowdStrike -6.0%, Palo Alto Networks -4.6%, Cloudflare -3.9%, Zscaler -4.7%, Fortinet -4.0%, Okta -4.26%. The broader Global X Cybersecurity ETF is down 2.7% Security stocks — along with software names more broadly — have been pressured by concerns that tools from AI companies like Anthropic or OpenAI could reduce demand for products from legacy providers, weighing on their growth, margins, and pricing power.

Argentina ’s path to a coveted credit rating upgrade hinges on a sustained buildup of foreign-currency reserves, according to Fitch Ratings.

Argentina ’s path to a coveted credit rating upgrade hinges on a sustained buildup of foreign-currency reserves, according to Fitch Ratings. The government of President Javier Milei has made “impressive” progress in bringing down inflation and tightening fiscal policy, said Todd Martinez , co-head of the Americas sovereigns group at the ratings firm. That has earned it two upgrades since late 2024, bringing it to CCC+, seven notches into speculative grade. But strengthening the central bank’s balance sheet — and proving it can hold on to those dollars — remains critical. “Reserve accumulation is the missing piece,” Martinez said in an interview. “To make that next step to B-, we would like to see the government buying more than enough dollars to pay its debt and also build up a cushion for the future.” The central bank, which declined to comment, has purchased roughly $3.5 billion in reserves this year, maintaining its pace even as the Iran war roils markets. It has a goal of buying between $10 billion and $17 billion in 2026. While the push has been positively received, investors remain wary of how Argentina will meet upcoming bond payments without eroding those reserves, particularly as officials have ruled out a near-term return to international debt markets. Read More: Argentina Missed Early Window to Sell Bonds, Investors Say That tension is reflected in sovereign spreads , which remain at about twice where Milei wants them to be. Economy Minister Luis Caputo, who has has resisted issuing new debt abroad at current levels, recently said Argentina has identified funding to meet near-term maturities and is working on alternative financing sources, without giving specifics. An operation such as Ecuador’s tender offer, seen by investors as one possible pathway for Argentina, was also ruled out. A successful liability management exercise that lowers short-term financial needs for Argentina would be one of the “best catalysts for our rating,” Martinez said. “A lot of...

Rising fuel costs triggered by the Middle East crisis are emerging as an unexpected tailwind for China’s electric vehicle (EV) makers, as consumers increasingly pivot towards battery-powered cars to avoid surging petrol bills.

BYD Co. reported a steeper-than-expected slump in fourth-quarter profit as relentless competition and tighter regulation in China ramped up pressure on the world’s biggest electric vehicle maker to reignite stalling momentum. Net income in the three months ended Dec. 31 was 9.3 billion yuan ($1.3 billion), according to figures derived from annual numbers reported Friday. That’s down 38% from a year earlier and missed the average analyst estimate for 10.5 billion yuan. Revenue fell about 14% to 237.7 billion yuan, underscoring concerns that BYD’s aggressive discounting and diversified product strategy, which saw it topple Tesla Inc. as the world’s top-selling EV maker last year, is taking its toll. BYD’s ascent to global dominance is facing a reality check as it struggles with slowing sales at home, forcing the industry bellwether to spend heavily to keep up with tech-centric models being rolled out by the likes of newcomer Xiaomi Corp . Sales have slumped in the first two months of this year and, after dominating the Chinese market for years, BYD has now ceded the top spot to Geely Automobile Holdings Ltd . Read More: One in 10 Cars Sold in Europe Is Now Made by a Chinese Brand That’s pushed BYD to increasingly look abroad, where demand for its models is booming and the carmaker generates more profit for each vehicle it sells. Exports have held up so far in 2026, in contrast to the slump in domestic sales, and BYD is looking to sell 1.3 million cars outside China in 2026. Still, it’s an expensive and high-stakes endeavor for the EV brand, which is pouring money into building factories overseas to circumvent tariffs and other trade barriers.
