Rafael_Wiedenmeier/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images A law that determines UBS Group's ( UBS ) future capital needs has been delayed by several months, people familiar with the talks told Bloomberg News . Today, the upper house committee debated the government's proposals to tighten bank capital rules that are intended to prevent a collapse like Credit Suisse's. The proposed new requirements by the Swiss government would call for the bank to strengthen its common equity tier 1 capital by ~$20B. UBS was opposing the proposals, saying that they would hurt its ability to compete globally. UBS CEO Sergio Ermotti; Switzerland’s finance minister, Karin Keller-Sutter; Swiss National Bank President Martin Schlegel; and Stefan Walter, head of financial regulator Finma, had attended the meeting in Bern, according to Bloomberg. Topics for today's debate included the government's proposal to make UBS fully back its foreign units with common equity Tier 1 capital and a proposal by lawmakers that allowed the Swiss lender to partly use additional Tier 1 capital instead, Reuters had noted earlier during the day. The first hearing of the bill in the Upper House’s Economic Affairs and Taxation Committee ended without a recommendation on whether lawmakers should support or reject the proposal, the people who declined to be identified discussing closed-door meetings told Bloomberg. Now, the upper house will likely vote on the proposals in its September session, and not in June, the sources reportedly said. The entire process, which includes the Lower House as well, is now expected to be completed next year at the earliest, the report published on Monday, May 4, noted. The upper house committee was widely considered sympathetic to UBS's concerns that the new rules will hurt its business and the economy. The bank faces a tougher reception in the lower house committee and on the floor of parliament, Reuters had reported earlier. More on UBS Group AG UBS Group AG 2026 Q1 - Results - Ear...

OpenAI, the revolutionary artificial intelligence company co-founded by Sam Altman, sent shivers down investors' spines recently after reportedly missing user growth and revenue targets. This had ripple effects across the broader tech sector and raised concerns about whether OpenAI can sustain its data center commitments and whether its high-profile partnerships will deliver on their promises. Oracle (NYSE: ORCL) , which has a $300 billion multiyear partnership with OpenAI, dropped about 4% on the news. Does this mean Oracle investors should panic? Absolutely not. Oracle's cloud infrastructure, software, and database business lines are vast and not completely reliant upon OpenAI. Oracle's financials are quite strong. First, the company's remaining performance obligations (RPOs) totaled $553 billion as of the third quarter of fiscal 2026. This is a 325% year-over-year increase. There is no shortage of demand for Oracle's software and services. Continue reading

Those supporters believe it now, all right. Continue reading...
