Senegal is striving to bolster ties with key trading partner Morocco, after a contentious match at Africa’s top football event cast a shadow over their historically close relationship. Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko and his counterpart Aziz Akhannouch signed agreements Monday that will open up new opportunities for investment in energy, mining, infrastructure and transport, Sonko said during a visit to the Moroccan capital, Rabat. The meeting also marked the revival of a commission, dormant since 2013, that seeks to foster cooperation between the two nations. It comes about a week after the final of the Africa Cup of Nations held in the same city descended into violence. “The Moroccan-Senegalese friendship is stronger than emotions,” said Sonko. The visit was “not for appeasement,” he added, describing the events at the Jan. 18 game as “deplorable.” While the trip was planned before the football match in which Senegal narrowly beat Morocco, the subsequent controversy has injected urgency into the meetings. The debt-burdened West African nation is trying to build closer relations on the continent while reducing its reliance on former colonial ruler France. Morocco, meanwhile, has styled itself as a partner for sub-Saharan Africa, where it has growing commercial interests. The kingdom is home to about 200,000 Senegalese, according to local diaspora group Aresem, making them its largest single expatriate community. Calling for calm last week, Sonko said the episode “should not extend beyond the realm of sports” and “our common challenges are far more important.” Read More: Senegal Celebrates Football Victory While Navigating Debt Talks His country is Morocco’s biggest trade partner in Africa, with Senegalese data showing transactions more than quadrupled over a decade to reach 172 billion CFA francs ($310 million) in 2024.

CoreWeave (CRWV) stock surged more than 15% early Monday after Nvidia (NVDA) said it will invest an additional $2 billion in the AI cloud company. AI chipmaker Nvidia said the deal would help CoreWeave build more than five gigawatts of AI factory capacity by 2030. The two companies will work together to enhance CoreWeave’s AI native software, and CoreWeave will deploy “multiple generations” of Nvidia’s AI systems, the chipmaker said. “AI is entering its next frontier and driving the largest infrastructure buildout in human history,” Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of Nvidia, said in a statement. “CoreWeave’s deep AI factory expertise, platform software, and unmatched execution velocity are recognized across the industry.” The investment announced Monday comes in addition to Nvidia’s $3.3 billion stake in CoreWeave. Nvidia has invested heavily in “neocloud” companies focused on AI cloud offerings, including CoreWeave, Nebius, and Lambda Labs. The circular dynamic in which Nvidia invests in its own customers has raised eyebrows on Wall Street and added to concerns over an AI bubble. Read more: How to protect your portfolio if you’re worried about an AI bubble As Nvidia’s chips have been in hot demand, the chipmaker’s legacy cloud hyperscalers have begun turning to the neoclouds to access the company’s AI systems. Microsoft (MSFT) accounts for the lion’s share of CoreWeave’s revenue, while Meta (META) and Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL) are also customers. CoreWeave’s jump Monday puts shares up nearly 16% for the month and 138% over the past year. Nvidia stock fell fractionally on Monday, while shares are up 27% over the past year. The chipmaker faced a rocky past couple of weeks as the fate of its China business remained uncertain and geopolitical tensions sent investors fleeing riskier assets.r CoreWeave stock surged on Monday after Nvidia said it will invest $2 billion in the AI cloud company.

They survived the Nazis but were confiscated by the communists, and for the last three decades they have been jealously guarded and bound in red tape by a museum in the Czech Republic. Indeed, due to the attentions of an overzealous Czech customs guard and the vagaries of the British weather, a happy conclusion had been in doubt to the very end. But last Thursday, a small suitcase filled with 681 drawings, love letters, poems and manuscripts created by the Jewish artist and poet Peter Kien in the Theresienstadt ghetto in German-occupied Czechoslovakia between 1941 and 1944 finally made a blustery landing at Heathrow. From there, the treasures were transported to their new home: the Wiener Holocaust Library in central London, where Judy King, 66, was anxiously waiting for them. She was keeping a promise she had made to her mother, Helga Wolfenstein, beside her deathbed in 2003. Wolfenstein had been Kien’s lover in the ghetto. It was to her that he handed the small caramel brown suitcase on the evening before he was transported to the Auschwitz death camp, where he was murdered at the age of 25 along with his parents, Leonard and Olga, and his estranged wife, Ilse Stránská. View image in fullscreen One of the hundreds of artworks Peter Kien entrusted to Helga Wolfenstein in 1944. Photograph: Sarah Lee/The Guardian Wolfenstein’s mother, Hermine, was matron of the infectious diseases ward in the ghetto, and it was here that they hid the suitcase from the occupying forces, on the correct assumption the Nazis would balk at the risks of entering such a place. When what was left of Theresienstadt was liberated in 1945, Wolfenstein left Prague for Libya, where her brother in law was working for the British as a doctor, before she moved on to England. She knew that the communists now in charge of Czechoslovakia would not let her take the suitcase out of Prague, and so she left it with her aunt, Julia Fleischerova. She could not have foreseen the deception of a man called Karl...

Micron was pulled into the memory market's change in focus to high-bandwidth memory products and became a top AI infrastructure name. Just a few years ago, the memory market was in bad shape. Both the DRAM (dynamic random access memory) and NAND (flash memory) markets were oversupplied, and Micron Technology (MU 2.65%) saw its revenue cut nearly in half in fiscal 2023. Meanwhile, its debt ballooned to over $13 billion. Fast forward to 2026, and the company is entering what looks to be a memory super-cycle, completely flipping the script from just a few years prior. As the artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure buildout continues to ramp up, Micron is one of the best-positioned companies in the space. Micron is making new memories Micron is one of the world's three main DRAM companies, alongside Samsung and SK Hynix. It also participates in the NAND market. About 80% of its revenue comes from DRAM and 20% from NAND. DRAM has seen a huge surge in demand and prices due to the AI infrastructure buildout. The reason is that for graphics processing units (GPUs) and other AI chips to perform at their best, they need high bandwidth memory (HBM), which is a specialized form of DRAM. HBM stores data and allows AI chips to quickly retrieve and transfer it, greatly increasing processing speeds. Given the race to build large language models (LLMs) and have lightning-quick inference, demand for HMB has skyrocketed along with the AI data center buildout. Meanwhile, the entire DRAM market is in short supply. This is because the DRAM companies are dedicating most of their production lines to higher return HBM, which requires three to four times the wafer capacity of standard DRAM. This shortfall in the DRAM market is driving up prices. The NAND market is also in short supply, due to a lack of production and demand for massive, high-performance solid-state drives (SSDs) using flash memory for AI data centers.

In recent trading, shares of Atlas Energy Solutions Inc (Symbol: AESI) have crossed above the average analyst 12-month target price of $23.45, changing hands for $23.93/share. When a stock reaches the target an analyst has set, the analyst logically has two ways to react: downgrade on valuation, or, re-adjust their target price to a higher level. Analyst reaction may also depend on the fundamental business developments that may be responsible for driving the stock price higher — if things are looking up for the company, perhaps it is time for that target price to be raised. There are 10 different analyst targets within the Zacks coverage universe contributing to that average for Atlas Energy Solutions Inc , but the average is just that — a mathematical average. There are analysts with lower targets than the average, including one looking for a price of $19.00. And then on the other side of the spectrum one analyst has a target as high as $28.00. The standard deviation is $2.338. But the whole reason to look at the average AESI price target in the first place is to tap into a "wisdom of crowds" effort, putting together the contributions of all the individual minds who contributed to the ultimate number, as opposed to what just one particular expert believes. And so with AESI crossing above that average target price of $23.45/share, investors in AESI have been given a good signal to spend fresh time assessing the company and deciding for themselves: is $23.45 just one stop on the way to an even higher target, or has the valuation gotten stretched to the point where it is time to think about taking some chips off the table?

Liam Dawson has been around for England’s finest white-ball moments in the last decade. He was an uncapped inclusion in the 2016 World T20 touring party, when Eoin Morgan’s fresh-faced team were denied right at the end by Carlos Brathwaite’s remember-the-name sixes. He was there as a squad member on that golden day at Lord’s in 2019, too, and a travelling reserve when England won the T20 World Cup in Australia three years later. But, remarkably, the 35-year-old is still waiting for his debut at a global tournament. It’s been an international career spent on call, limited to 33 appearances across formats, his left-arm spin and handy batting there to use in case of emergency. The next few weeks will be different, Dawson’s drought surely breaking when England begin their World Cup campaign on 8 February against Nepal. He’s taken 12 wickets at 19.25 since becoming Adil Rashid’s spin partner in the T20 team last summer, and conditions in India will demand his presence. The warm-up is going smoothly, too. Playing in the ongoing series against Sri Lanka in Colombo – marking his return to the ODI team after more than three years out – Dawson has conceded only four boundaries across 20 overs, and nabbed a couple of wickets as well. “On these pitches you just simplify it as a bowler,” said Dawson. “Just try and land the ball in an area and let the pitch do the work.” It’s a compelling story, the supporting act finally getting his big shot as the career winds down. But Dawson, at least when facing the media on Monday, kept his guard up when asked about the prospect of a first World Cup appearance. Admitting it was “amazing” to be back involved in the England set up, he added it would be a “really cool occasion if selected to play”. Asked if he’d thought about potentially earning a Test recall later this year, he said: “It’s not something I’ve overly thought about. I’ve obviously got the World Cup to focus on first, domestic cricket in England, see how that goes and then see wh...

gopixa/iStock via Getty Images By Carsten Brzeski, Global Head of Macro This morning, Germany has literally slid into weather and traffic chaos. While this chaos will only be temporary, the just-released Ifo index suggests that leaving the economic chaos behind will be more cumbersome than seeing today’s snow melt away. In January, Germany’s leading indicator, the Ifo index, remained unchanged at 87.6. While the current assessment improved somewhat, expectations weakened. The reading should be taken with a pinch of salt, as it is unclear whether most participants sent in their answers before or after US President Donald Trump’s decision not to impose additional tariffs on several European countries. More generally speaking, the unchanged Ifo index reflects the uncertainty that has hit the German economy again on the back of geopolitical tensions and tariff threats. Time to get more positive about Germany Despite this morning's disappointing Ifo index reading, there are good reasons to be more positive about the German economy. The latest macro data indicates a clear turning point in industry at the end of last year. Industrial orders have now increased for three consecutive months, and even the argument that bulk orders drove the November surge does not really concern us; with the fiscal spending programme, more of these bulk orders will come this year. In fact, bulk orders could be the new normal, not the exception. While industry is going through a soft and tentative period of cyclical turning, admittedly at still shockingly weak levels, the announced infrastructure and defence investment plans should finally begin to reach the economy this year. Critics often overlook the sluggishness of Germany’s federal decision-making process. It took until late last year for parliament to approve the 2026 budget and almost 30 military procurement contracts. With the rapid expansion of defence production capacity, there is a good chance that a large part of defence spending wi...

Posts from this author will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed. Apple has revealed a new AirTag that comes with the company’s upgraded ultra wideband chip, allowing for more precise location tracking. It has the same $29 for one or $99 for a four-pack price as the AirTag it’s replacing, while the new chip powers Apple’s Precision Finding feature, which uses haptic, visual, and audio feedback to guide you to items from up to “50 percent farther away.” Along with more accurate location tracking, the new AirTag has an updated speaker that Apple says is 50 percent louder, as well as a Bluetooth chip that “expands the range at which items can be located. You can also use the Precision Finding feature with an Apple Watch Series 9 or later, or Apple Watch Ultra 2 or later, with watchOS 26.2.1. Image: Apple The new AirTag is compatible with all existing accessories. Apple notes that the AirTag “doesn’t physically store location data or history on device,” while end-to-end encryption secures communication with its Find My network. It adds that the AirTag also includes measures to protect against unwanted tracking, “including cross-platform alerts and unique Bluetooth identifiers that change frequently.” Apple partnered with Google in 2023 on an industry standard designed to help limit AirTag tracking.

Key Points Chinese automotive brands are expanding rapidly across the globe. Canada has just given them an opening into its automotive market. Eventually, Chinese automakers could spread to all of North America. 10 stocks we like better than Ford Motor Company › Decades ago, foreign automakers were clamoring to get into the Chinese market. The market was blossoming and would become the world's largest automotive market by 2009. However, the Chinese forced foreign automakers into joint ventures with domestic companies to earn their way into the market. Because of these joint ventures, the Chinese automakers developed quickly, and years later, through government subsidies and other incentives, became advanced, particularly with electric vehicles (EVs). The problem for the likes of Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) and General Motors (NYSE: GM), among others, is that now Chinese automakers are able to undercut on pricing and, due to an aggressive price war in China, are rapidly expanding across the globe. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » Making matters worse for the two Detroit automakers was a recent shift in North American trade policy that could mean Chinese brands are a mere step away from the lucrative U.S. market. What's going on? Last week, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced a new strategic partnership with China that essentially reopens Canada to Chinese EVs. This is a reversal of recent history, as for the past two years, Canada has stood beside the U.S. regarding Chinese EV tariffs. After the Biden administration implemented 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs, Canada followed with similar moves -- but that's changing. Tucked away in a much broader trade agreement between Prime Minister Carney and Beijing, China, last week, Canada agreed to let in an annual quota of just under 50,000 Chinese EVs into the country at a tariff rate of only 6.1%. In return China wi...

A "shining light", the "ultimate professional" and "great news for women's tennis" - rising star Iva Jovic has earned plenty of plaudits on her run to the Australian Open last eight.

A "shining light", the "ultimate professional" and "great news for women's tennis" - rising star Iva Jovic has earned plenty of plaudits on her run to the Australian Open last eight. But it will be Novak Djokovic's words, more than anyone else's, that will spur the 18-year-old on as she prepares for her first Grand Slam quarter-final. "She definitely has all the tools to be a future champion and a future number one," the 24-time major winner said before Jovic's match against Aryna Sabalenka. The teenager has enjoyed a stellar run in Melbourne, becoming the youngest American woman to reach the quarter-finals since 17-year-old Venus Williams in 1998. But why has Jovic received such high praise from Djokovic? And how can she cause an upset against current world number one Sabalenka on Tuesday?

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Credit: UNIKO's Hardware on X The latest entry in AMD's Ryzen 9000 lineup, the 9850X3D, is set to launch in just a few days worldwide, but it seems like China will be getting a little special treatment when it does. UNIKO's Hardware has spotted an official boxed bundle containing the new X3D chip, alongside a Cooler Master cooler and V-Color RAM. The set is likely aimed at offering customers a convenient all-in-one solution. Hardware bundles are commonplace at many retailers, especially Micro Center, which once handed out free 32 GB DDR5 kits with the purchase of a Ryzen 7000 CPU. Such unfathomable times. Anyhow, these bundles usually focus on CPU, RAM, and motherboard combos instead of throwing in a cooler. They're also not "official" in the sense that it's just the vendor's due diligence to boost sales, instead of something coming directly from the companies involved. Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement That's not the case here, as you can see AMD, Cooler Master, and V-Color's logo on the box, signaling this is an official collab, at least in China. It was unveiled at Cooler Master's latest press event in the region. The included cooler, therefore, is Cooler Master's Hyper 612 Apex, which costs $79.99. The RAM is a 32 GB kit of V-Color's Manta XFinity RGB DDR5-6000 that's retailing for ~$500 right now. It launched at around $200 at the time of our original coverage in September, 2025. We've since reviewed the 64 GB 6400 MT/s kit favorably just a few days ago. Lastly, the Ryzen 7 9850X3D CPU itself has an MSRP of $500, which totals out this package to $1,080 individually, but we don't know the actual bundle's cost. A couple of days ago, AMD said the 9850X3D doesn't require high-speed DDR5. With kits running at bone stock 4800 MT/s JEDEC spec, versus overclocked 6000 MT/s units with EXPO profiles that offer less than a 1% difference in FPS. So, there's at lea...

(Photo by AUGUSTIN PASQUINI/Hans Lucas/AFP via Getty Images) Augustin Pasquini | Afp | Getty Images Nvidia has become something of an AI kingmaker as hyperscalers rush to build out AI capacity. It's also got cash to burn and has ratcheted up its investments in European startups. Last year, Nvidia participated in 14 rounds for European tech companies, according to deal-counting platform Dealroom, compared to seven in 2024, five in 2023, one in 2022 and none in 2021 or 2020. The 14 European investments were among the 86 startup rounds it invested in globally that year. Zoom In Icon Arrows pointing outwards Nvidia has been on a charm offensive within the industry as it looks to deepen its ties to some of the world's most promising companies, offering technical expertise and supply chain assistance, alongside hard cash. The trend has continued in 2026, with British AI startup Synthesia announcing on Monday that Nvidia had participated in the company's $200 million Series E. The chip giant's spending spree is part of a wider push to deepen its ties to the world's most promising startups as it looks to consolidate its position as AI leader. "Nvidia's investments in European AI firms appear to mirror its broader, global strategy of taking its excess cash and reinvesting in the AI ecosystem across a host of startups," Brian Colello, senior equity analyst at Morningstar, told CNBC. These are all the European tech companies Nvidia, or its venture arm NVentures, invested in last year and the total size of the round it participated in , per Dealroom. Mistral Round: 1.7 billion euros, September One of Europe's leading AI labs, French startup Mistral is building models aiming to rival those produced by the likes of OpenAI and Google. Before participating in Mistral's 1.7 billion euro Series C f...

At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk said he expects China to approve the company's Full Self-Driving system soon. Musk repeated an optimistic timeline he mentioned last year, suggesting approval could come next month. However, narratives pointing to imminent approval are inaccurate, CnEVPost reported, citing state-run China Daily (which cited a Chinese government source). Don't Miss: Missed Nvidia and Tesla? RAD Intel Could Be the Next AI Powerhouse — Just $0.85 a Share Sam Altman Says AI Will Transform the Economy — This Platform Lets Investors Back Private Tech Early Musk said Tesla hopes to secure supervised FSD approval in Europe first, followed by China on a similar schedule. Chinese Government Response A government source told state media that claims of rapid approval are "not true," CnEV Post adds. The source did not provide updated details or an alternative review timeline. Tesla currently sells a basic driver-assistance system in China. The product lacks several capabilities available in the U.S. version of FSD.

Company's Push In China Tesla continues to push for broader deployment of advanced driver-assistance features in its second-largest market. Full regulatory clearance remains pending. On Feb. 25, 2025, Tesla rolled out ADAS features in China resembling its U.S. FSD system. The company avoided using the FSD name, and key functions remained absent, CnEV Post adds. Industry Context Tesla faces intense competition in China's autonomous driving sector, where domestic companies are rapidly advancing similar technologies.
