SAN FRANCISCO, Jan 26 (Reuters) - Microsoft on Monday unveiled the second generation of its in-house artificial intelligence chip, along with software tools that take aim ​at one of Nvidia's biggest competitive advantages with developers. The new "Maia 200" chip comes ‌online this week in a data center in Iowa, with plans for a second location in Arizona, ‌Microsoft said. It is the second generation of an AI chip called Maia that Microsoft introduced in 2023. The Maia 200 comes as major cloud computing firms such as Microsoft, Alphabet's Google and Amazon.com's Amazon Web Services - some of Nvidia's biggest customers - are producing their ⁠own chips that increasingly compete with ‌Nvidia. Google, in particular, has garnered interest from major Nvidia customers such as Meta Platforms, which is working closely with Google to close one ‍of the biggest software gaps between Google and Nvidia's AI chip offerings. For its part, Microsoft said that along with the new Maia chip, it will be offering a package of software tools ​to program it. That includes Triton, an open-source software tool with major contributions ‌from ChatGPT creator OpenAI that takes on the same tasks as Cuda, the Nvidia software that many Wall Street analysts say is Nvidia's biggest competitive advantage. Like Nvidia's forthcoming flagship "Vera Rubin" chips introduced earlier this month, Microsoft's Maia 200 is made by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co using 3-nanometer chipmaking technology and will use high-bandwidth memory chips, albeit an ⁠older and slower generation than Nvidia's forthcoming chips. But Microsoft ​has also taken a page from the playbook of ​some of Nvidia's rising competitors by packing the Maia 200 chip with a significant amount of what is known as SRAM, a type ‍of memory that can ⁠provide speed advantages for chatbots and other AI systems when they field requests from a large number of users. Cerebras Systems, which recently inked a $10 billion deal ⁠with OpenAI to supply c...

Call it the grand rotation. After several years of tech giants getting bigger and bigger market caps and dominating the makeup of the S&P 500 (^GSPC) like never before, a different dynamic has emerged in 2026. The weight of the top 10 stocks in the S&P 500 has recently seen some "major deterioration" relative to the rest of the stock market, RBC Capital Markets strategist Lori Calvasina pointed out. The top 10 stocks in the S&P 500 by weight are Nvidia (NVDA), Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN), Alphabet (GOOG) Class A shares, Alphabet (GOOGL) Class C shares, Meta (META), Broadcom (AVGO), Tesla (TSLA), and Berkshire Hathaway (BRK-B). The performance of these top names is often a barometer of market sentiment. The biggest tech stocks in the game take a hit. (Credit: RBC Capital Markets). · RBC Capital Markets And sentiment on tech has soured as fears of overspending on AI infrastructure ratchets up. Information technology is trading at its lowest valuation premium to the S&P 500 in the post-pandemic environment, according to Evercore ISI data. The price-to-earnings multiple for the "Magnificent Seven" is in line with its post-pandemic average, while the other 493 stocks in the S&P 500 trade near their all-time high valuations. Investors have rotated out tech and into more value sectors such as healthcare, energy, and industrials. The Magnificent Seven basket of popular tech stocks has been the worst-performing group within the S&P 500, down close to 5%. Meanwhile, the price-to-earnings growth ratio (PEG ratio) of megacap tech has declined to just 1.4 times, which matches the trough reached in 2022, Goldman Sachs strategists noted. "In general, our December client meetings suggested to us that US equity investors are anticipating a rotation in market leadership and are interested in exploring sectors with valuation appeal," Calvasina explained. "We see risk of AI overspend/overhype as a risk to be vigilant on, especially since valuations and capex spend for...

Over 700,000 graduates out of work and claiming benefits, analysis suggests 1 hour ago Share Save Beth Rose Disability affairs reporter Share Save Getty Images More than 700,000 university graduates are out of work and claiming welfare benefits, new analysis by a think tank suggests. The Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) said 400,000 graduates were not in work and claiming Universal Credit, according to the latest statistics. There were 240,000 graduates who said they could not work due to health reasons, the think tank said, with that figure having more than doubled since 2019. The government says it is investing money in getting young people into work, and has commissioned a review into "what's holding the younger generation back". The CSJ used the Office for National Statistics' Labour Force Survey, in combination with data from the Department for Work and Pensions, to analyse figures from before and after the Covid pandemic. It said 707,000 graduates aged 16 to 64 were out of work and claiming one or more benefits in 2024, an increase of more than 200,000 - or 46% - since 2019. The number of those claiming Universal Credit was 400,000, while almost 240,000 of the 700,000 said they were off work due to sickness – a figure which has more than doubled from 117,000 since 2019, the CSJ said. Universal Credit is a means-tested benefit and aims to help with living costs for people of working age who are on a low income, out of work, or unable to work. About 8.3 million people claimed the benefit in October 2025, according to government figures.

SmileStudioAP OpenAI ( OPENAI ) is charging prices that rival those for video programs like the NFL and above what competitors like Meta Platforms’ ( META ) social media apps charge, the Information reported. However, unlike Meta or Alphabet's ( GOOG ) ( GOOGL ) Google, OpenAI will not be providing detailed information about the query responses accompanying their ads or if ads prompted ChatGPT users to take an action, like purchasing something, the report added . Microsoft ( MSFT )-backed OpenAI may introduce that data over time, but it will need to include more sophisticated ad tools that could take time to set up. This highlights the work that likely remains for the AI startup to build an ad business that could rival the largest sellers of ads, according to the report. OpenAI did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Seeking Alpha. OpenAI has informed early advertisers that it will give them data about impressions, or how many views an ad gets, and how many total clicks it gets, a media buyer working with some of the advertisers said, the report noted. Advertisers will get high-level insights such as total ad views, an OpenAI spokesperson confirmed. This is similar to what TV networks offer. However, a key reason why Google and Meta have overtaken the TV industry to become the biggest ad sellers in the past 20 years is that they offer advertisers detailed information that allows marketers to measure what they get for their ad spending. Over time, advertisers would expect OpenAI to start using complex ad technology, which gives advertisers more targeted information about the ChatGPT users seeing their ads, and if an ad leads to a purchase, the report added. Earlier this month, OpenAI said it would start testing ads in the free tier and ChatGPT Go in the U.S. soon. However, ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise plans will remain ad-free. Last week, The Information reported that OpenAI ( OPENAI ) started offering new chatbot ads to dozens of adv...

Credit trading specialist John Aylward ’s investment firm Sona Asset Management is planning to move to a bigger office in London’s Piccadilly neighborhood, according to people familiar with the matter. The hedge fund is in talks to take up around 30,000 square feet (2,787 square meters) of space at Pegasus House, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing private information. That’s roughly double the current office space it has at 20 St James’s Street. Negotiations are ongoing and there’s no certainty a lease deal will be concluded, the people added. If an agreement is reached, Sona will occupy the lower three floors of Pegasus House, which is being redeveloped by Aviva Plc ’s investment unit. Representatives for Sona and Aviva declined to comment. Alternative investment firms have been a major driver of demand for commercial real estate space in London in recent years, with hedge funds looking for a record 474,000 square feet of office space last year to accommodate their expansion amid bumper returns. But a shortage of premium space in Mayfair and St. James’s — where these firms are normally located — is prompting some to look elsewhere in the city. The $5 trillion hedge fund industry posted its best returns since 2009 with gains of about 12.6% last year, according to data compiled by industry tracker Hedge Fund Research Inc. Private equity firm Nordic Capital has also expanded into new offices at Brookfield’s 77 Grosvenor, taking up about 18,000 square feet of space, people familiar with the matter said separately. Representatives for Nordic Capital and Brookfield declined to comment. Founded in 2016 by Aylward, a former Deutsche Bank AG trader, Sona started with about $300 million in 2016 and has now grown into a roughly $16 billion firm, according to its website. Sona, which takes its name from the Irish word for fortunate, along with credit investing peer Arini, are two of the fastest growing hedge funds in London . The Sona Credit Master fund, w...

peshkov/iStock via Getty Images In investing, volatility is like the market’s heartbeat: it does not tell investors which way prices will move, but it does tell investors how rough the journey is likely to be. Rather than devoting all our energy to predicting ups and downs, it is often more helpful to understand the shape of risk first—where volatility comes from, when it tends to change, and how to build it into the day-to-day running of a portfolio. Volatility, in Plain English Volatility is a measure of how widely an asset’s price moves over a given period. In practice, it is commonly approximated by the standard deviation of returns: the higher the volatility, the more sharply prices swing around their average; the lower the volatility, the more stable the price action tends to be. The keyword here is magnitude , not direction : high volatility does not automatically mean losing money. It simply means outcomes are more dispersed, so both potential gains and potential drawdowns are larger. From an investment perspective, volatility is typically discussed in two broad categories: historical volatility and implied volatility . The former is what has happened; the latter is what the market is pricing for the future. Historical volatility (HV) : calculated by taking the standard deviation of daily/weekly/monthly returns over a past window and annualising it, reflecting how the asset has actually behaved. Source: IFMC Implied volatility (IV) : inferred from option prices and commonly interpreted as the market’s expectation (or pricing) of future volatility. It is closer to a consensus forecast: when sentiment tightens, or tail risks are repriced, IV often moves ahead of realised volatility in the spot market. Source: IFMC Crucially, volatility is not a constant. Across different assets, regimes and macro backdrops, it tends to show clustering (periods of high volatility often persist, as do calmer ones), jumps (events can cause sudden spikes), and fat tails (extreme m...

Microsoft (MSFT) is taking aim at cloud rivals Amazon (AMZN) and Google (GOOG, GOOGL) with the debut of its next-generation custom AI chip. Called Maia 200, the chip will run in Microsoft’s own data centers before the company eventually makes it available to its wider customer base. Like Google’s TPUs and Amazon’s Trainium processors, Microsoft’s second AI chip is meant to give the Windows maker more flexibility when it comes to how it powers its AI services. By using its own internally developed chips, the company ensures it doesn’t have to rely solely on processors developed by Nvidia (NVDA) or AMD (AMD). Google and Amazon have been using their own custom chips for years, while Microsoft has been slower to adopt in-house AI silicon. According to Microsoft, the Maia 200 will be built using TSMC’s 3-nanometer process and is designed to run large-scale AI workloads, while “delivering efficient performance per dollar.” Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella attends the 56th annual World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting in Davos, Switzerland, January 20, 2026. REUTERS/Denis Balibouse · REUTERS / Reuters The Maia 200 will be built into large server racks with trays housing four chips each. Microsoft is also touting how quickly it can deploy the new chips into data centers, saying chips are installed and running AI models within days of parts arriving. Getting AI servers up and running quickly is an important aspect of the broader data center business. It’s not just a matter of keeping construction costs down, either. The longer a chip goes unused, the less cash it can generate for the company by running AI apps. The Maia 200 adds to the growing competition Nvidia is facing from both AMD and its own customers. Microsoft’s Maia 100 already powers both the company’s and OpenAI’s (OPAI.PVT) AI models, while Google and Amazon both power their respective models and Anthropic’s (ANTH.PVT) models. And in November, The Information reported that Meta was talking to Google about using the search...

Intel says it has no plans to take on AMD’s Ryzen AI Max+ Strix Halo platform, telling us you’d be better off using a discrete GPU instead. Speaking to Club386, Intel fellow and graphics hardware expert, Tom Petersen, also described AMD’s current iGPU tech as “not that competitive.” As we just found in our new Core Ultra Series 3 review, Intel has really upped its iGPU game. The integrated Arc B390 GPU managed to run up surprisingly fast frame rates in many of our game tests, even at 1920×1080 with high settings. However, one iGPU is notably faster – the Radeon 8060S inside AMD’s Ryzen AI Max+ Pro 395 chip (codenamed Strix Halo), which contains 2,560 stream processors. It might be based on last-gen AMD RDNA 3.5 GPU tech, but it still beats Intel’s new Arc iGPU into submission through brute force. Could Intel produce a Strix Halo competitor now that it has a solid iGPU architecture under its belt? “You know, I don’t think so,” says Petersen. “If there’s a segment like that, it’s primarily discrete. I think that segment would be better served by a small, discrete GPU that’s going to be provided by third parties.” “AMD’s current product is not that competitive, either on a power or performance-per-watt basis.” To be fair to AMD, it’s been very careful not to market Strix Halo as a gaming GPU, despite its immense shader power. Knowing that the GPU’s size adds a big chunk of extra silicon, not to mention cost, to its top-end Ryzen AI Max+ Pro chips, AMD markets Strix Halo as a mobile workstation product instead. Conversely, Petersen says, “if you look at the relative performance of us versus AMD’s best today, it’s clear that we’re focused on integrated graphics performance, primarily for gaming.” In this respect, Petersen tells us that “AMD’s current product is not that competitive, either on a power or a performance-per-watt basis…from my perspective, we’re clearly ahead.” While Intel might not be planning to take on Strix Halo, it does look as though the company is rea...

Given that RAM has become so expensive to buy recently, you might have considered buying a prebuilt desktop computer. If so, and you’re leaning toward a high-end gaming model, Costco has a model that’s an impressive value at $1,999.99 ($300 off) for members through February 8th. It’s an all-AMD, liquid-cooled machine built into Asus’ ROG GM700 case, and includes the Ryzen 9 9950X3D — the best desktop processor of 2025 — along with AMD’s Radeon 9070 XT graphics card (also very good !), 32GB of DDR5 RAM and a 2TB SSD, plus a wired keyboard and mouse. Buying each of these components piecemeal would likely send you sailing over the $2,000 mark, with the CPU and GPU accounting for well over half the cost. Asus ROG GM700 with AMD 9950X3D and 9070 XT Where to Buy: $2299.99 $1999.99 at Costco Obviously, two grand is still a lot of money, but I’ve compared prices for other configurations and it seems like the best value by a long shot. For example, B&H Photo has a model for $1,899 with half the RAM and storage amounts, not to mention a step down to Intel’s Ultra 7 265F processor and Nvidia’s RTX 5070 GPU. Best Buy ’s $1,699.99 model offers 32GB DDR5 RAM with 1TB of storage along with AMD’s Ryzen 7 8700F and Nvidia’s RTX 5060 Ti. Costco’s model is vastly superior, especially in the processor department. Other Verge-approved deals Elgato’s Stream Deck Mk.2 includes 15 customizable buttons and currently costs $130 on sale. If you already know that’s not nearly enough buttons for your needs, the company’s biggest XL model with a whopping 32 buttons is discounted to $199.99 ($50 off) at Amazon . The Stream Deck XL works like the rest of Elgato’s models, letting you customize each button with its app however you please with plugins downloaded through its PC and macOS app. Best Buy has started its pre-Super Bowl discounts on LG OLED TVs , and the company’s offering free basic mounting and TV haul-away with select models. The most affordable is the 77-inch LG B5 that’s $1,499.99, th...

Social media giant Meta Platforms (META) kicked off 2026 on a shaky note as its aggressive push into artificial intelligence (AI) began to unsettle investors. The trouble began last October, when the company reported its Q3 results and unveiled ambitious AI-focused capital spending plans. While the company’s underlying performance remained solid, the sheer scale of planned spending stole the spotlight. Investors balked at the prospect of sharply higher capex in 2026, worrying that the company may be taking on too much risk at a time when the returns from generative AI remain uncertain. That said, despite lingering skepticism on Wall Street, one major bull is standing firm. In a recent investment note, Jefferies argued that Meta’s sharp selloff has created an attractive entry point, naming the stock a “Top Pick.” The firm laid out five key reasons why the selloff should be bought, suggesting the market may be overemphasizing near-term spending fears while underestimating Meta’s long-term AI and monetization potential. With that in mind, here’s a closer look at what’s driving Jefferies’ bullish stance. About Meta Stock Meta has grown far beyond its Facebook beginnings in 2004. As the company behind Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, and Threads, it remains at the heart of how billions of people connect and communicate every day. Now, Meta is placing a big bet on AI, a move reflected in its rising capex plans. From improving content discovery and boosting ad efficiency to enhancing messaging and building more immersive experiences, AI is shaping Meta’s next phase of growth, alongside the development of both open and proprietary models through its Llama platform. With a towering $1.66 trillion market capitalization, Meta still sits comfortably among Wall Street’s elite “Magnificent Seven.” But despite its heavyweight status, the ride hasn’t been smooth lately. The social media giant’s stock has taken a noticeable hit, lagging the broader market as investors wrestle with th...

Following strong participation in the inaugural edition, the second edition of UDAS 2026/27 is now open for entries. The application period runs until March 31, 2026 with categories open to enterprises, property developers, government departments, higher education institutions, retailers and community organisations. Launched in 2024, the scheme drew applications from across the public and private sectors, indicating growing awareness that accessibility is not just a matter of regulatory compliance but of social participation. That shift – from compliance to inclusivity – is what the Equal Opportunities Commission (EOC) hopes to accelerate through its Universal Design Award Scheme (UDAS), which recognises organisations that make accessibility part of everyday experience. Universal design is fast becoming a new measure of good urban living in Hong Kong. As the city’s population grows older and more diverse, the way spaces are planned, built and managed now matters as much as what they contain. [The content of this article has been produced by our advertising partner.] Under the Building (Planning) Regulations and the Government’s Design Manual: Barrier Free Access 2008, Hong Kong has established a solid foundation of physical access requirements in public and private buildings. However, as the city’s demographic shifts and expectations for a fairer, more inclusive society rise, the EOC recognises the need to move away from compliance-driven design towards universal design, which considers everyone’s experience instead of minimum standards. Advertisement As defined by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, universal design is the design of products, environments, programmes and services to be usable by all people, to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation or specialised design.

The Build conference, marking its second consecutive year in Seattle, is expected to put emphasis on the company's cloud technologies and the artificial intelligence features within those services. Grant Hindsley | Bloomberg | Getty Images Microsoft announced the next generation of its artificial intelligence chip, a potential alternative to leading processors from Nvidia and to offerings from cloud rivals Amazon and Google . The Maia 200 comes two years after Microsoft said it had developed its first AI chip, the Maia 100 , which was never made available for cloud clients to rent. Scott Guthrie, Microsoft's executive vice president for cloud and AI, said in a blog post Monday that, for the new chip, there will be "wider customer availability in the future." Guthrie called the Maia 200 "the most efficient inference system Microsoft has ever deployed." Developers, academics, AI labs and people contributing to open-source AI models can apply for a preview of a software development kit. Microsoft said its superintelligence team , led by Mustafa Suleyman, will use the new chip. The Microsoft 365 Copilot add-on for commercial productivity software bundles and the Microsoft Foundry service, for building on top of AI models, will use it as well. Cloud providers face surging demand from generative AI model developers such as Anthropic and OpenAI and from companies building AI agents and other products on top of the popular models. Data center operators and infrastructure providers are trying to increase their computing prowess while keeping power consumption in check.
