AMS acquisition extends Korn Ferry's existing growth trajectory, which was highlighted in the company's recently announced first quarter results. It was the sixth back-to-back quarter of topline growth, which augments the durability of Korn Ferry's fundamental business model. The company also delivered a 9% growth in its adjusted diluted EPS of $1.43, relative to the same period last year.
The AMS deal results in several strategic benefits for Korn Ferry. Based on its long-standing client relationships, AMS offers robust operational strength, along with prospects of consistent, recurring income. Such relationships also enable the company to deliver technology-led solutions at scale.
Financing of this transaction involved a mix of existing cash, share issuance and borrowings. At closing, Korn Ferry paid approximately £473 million and $326 million in cash, covering consideration to the sellers, repayment of AMS indebtedness and other transaction obligations, and issued 3,118,628 Korn Ferry shares to the sellers.

Putting a name to her ******* uality comes after years of Anderson speaking openly about her attraction to both men and women — and even questioning which label best described her.

Jim Curtis is opening about about his romance with Jennifer Aniston.
The wellness expert and hypnotherapist, 50, explained the couple's low-key beginnings in an interview with the Sunday Times Magazine published Saturday, September 12, revealing there was "a many-month friendship first" before things turned romantic.
"The drive was more natural, more organic, less needy," Curtis explained.
Curtis admitted his approach to relationships had changed by the time he connected with the Friends star, 57, after previously putting pressure on himself to find a partner.
"In the past I've felt this idea of, 'I need you to be in love with me,'" he reflected, adding that when Aniston came into his life, he wasn't "searching for love anymore."

Vale S.A. (NYSE:VALE) is considering making its debut in China's domestic bond market as soon as this year, with CFO Marcelo Bacci saying the company is preparing for a potential Panda bond issuance. The move would be strategically significant because China accounts for roughly half of Vale's revenue, making renminbi financing a natural extension of its relationship with its largest market. Bloomberg reported that Vale is still ****** sing the market, including whether it can obtain a maturity longer than the typical two-, three-, or five-year terms available to international issuers.
The timing is also favorable for Vale because China's Panda bond market is expanding rapidly. Reuters reported that foreign issuers have increasingly turned to Asian bond markets to diversify funding sources, while Chinese yuan bond issuance has reached record levels in 2026. For Vale S.A. (NYSE:VALE), the potential transaction therefore looks less like a necessity for raising capital and more like an effort to diversify its investor base, potentially lower funding costs, and build a longer-term financing relationship with Chinese investors.
The strongest bullish argument is that Vale S.A. (NYSE:VALE) could potentially lower and diversify its cost of capital by accessing a large pool of Chinese investors at a time when renminbi funding remains relatively inexpensive. Reuters noted that Chinese onshore and offshore yuan bond markets have experienced record issuance this year, with foreign borrowers increasingly using these markets to diversify away from traditional funding currencies. If Vale can achieve competitive pricing, a Panda bond could provide an additional funding channel alongside its established dollar financing, reducing its dependence on a single market.
The move could also create a better natural match between Vale's revenues and its financing currency. Because China represents approximately half of Vale's revenue, raising at least some debt in renminbi could provide a degree of currency alignment with its Chinese business exposure. More importantly, establishing itself as a repeat issuer could strengthen Vale's relationships with Chinese banks and institutional investors, potentially giving it access to another source of capital when global dollar markets become less attractive.
There is also a broader strategic benefit. China is actively expanding the Panda bond market and encouraging international companies to use it. Official Chinese data showed that more than 160 billion yuan of Panda bonds were issued during the first half of 2026, up 69% year over year, demonstrating that the market is becoming more established and liquid. Vale entering this market could therefore position the company early in a growing financing ecosystem rather than waiting until it becomes more crowded.

Texas A&M's six remaining home games during the 2026 season will serve as critical recruiting opportunities for coach Mike Elko and his staff, especially in the 2028 recruiting cycle, as five-star quarterback Donald Tabron III and four-star Edge Chance Archangel serve as the lone commits in the class and will make their way back to campus this fall.
Plenty of intriguing names in the cycle will visit this weekend when the Aggies host Arizona State on Saturday afternoon, while five-star wide receiver Braylon Clark recently placed Texas A&M in his top 12 program list and will visit College Station on October 3 when the Aggies host Arkansas.
Under Mike Elko, Texas A&M has developed NFL talent at nearly every position, especially after a record-tying 10 players were selected in the 2026 NFL Draft back in late April. Elko's background as one of the best defensive coordinators in the country, currently serving as the Aggies' defensive playcaller, has continued to make its way to the eyes and ears of up-and-coming defenders, including 2028 four-star Edge David Dotson.
During his recent interview with Rivals insider Sam Spiegelman, Dotson named Texas A&M among several programs that "have his attention" heading into the fall months.
"Texas, Oklahoma, SMU, Texas A&M, Ohio State, Michigan, Georgia, LSU, and Alabama all have my attention," Dotson continued. "They've each shown me why they want me and how I could fit into their program. The relationships with the coaches, player development, culture, academics, and overall fit are all important to me."

Northern Trust Corporation (NASDAQ:NTRS) announced on September 7 that Warwickshire Pension Fund had appointed it to provide global custody, valuation reporting, capital call execution and performance measurement. The UK public pension fund has approximately £3.6 billion, or $4.8 billion, in ****** ets.
The appointment strengthens the pension-servicing franchise of Northern Trust Corporation (NASDAQ:NTRS). Contract duration and fees were not disclosed in the announcement. The investment question is whether the relationship can generate meaningful recurring revenue and support further wins.
Scale sets the hurdle. Northern Trust Corporation (NASDAQ:NTRS) reported $20.0 trillion of ****** ets under custody or administration at June 30. Warwickshire's ****** ets equal approximately 0.024% of that base. The pension ****** ets represent a servicing opportunity, with revenue depending on the services provided and contractual pricing.
Northern Trust Corporation (NASDAQ:NTRS) won responsibility for several connected functions. Combining custody, valuation reporting, and performance measurement could make the relationship more embedded in the fund's operations. Capital call execution also provides a role in supporting private-market investments.
Warwickshire is one of 18 partner funds in Border to Coast Pensions Partnership. For Northern Trust Corporation (NASDAQ:NTRS), successful delivery could provide a reference for additional pension mandates. The opportunity lies in repeating the service model across clients and expanding relationships as operational needs evolve.

Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE:DLR) announced the opening of its 6.4-megawatt NBO2 data center in Nairobi on September 7, expanding the campus alongside NBO1. The opening coincides with subsidiary iColo's transition to the parent's brand in Kenya and Mozambique.
The attraction extends beyond additional server ****** e. Customers can access the campus's community of more than 100 networks, two internet exchanges and a satellite teleport, which connects terrestrial networks with satellite services. These are connectivity options, not a disclosure of NBO2's leased capacity or customer count.
For Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE:DLR), the opportunity is to turn that concentration of networks into recurring customer relationships. The opening announcement did not disclose development cost, pre-leasing, occupancy, or expected revenue, leaving the financial payoff unresolved.
Interconnection can give customers a reason to choose a facility beyond price. Physical connections between customers and network providers can reduce latency and support more reliable data exchange. For businesses serving several markets, having carriers and partners close together can simplify how traffic moves between them.
That creates a potential network effect for Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE:DLR). More useful connections can attract additional customers, making the location more valuable to others. Once customers build several connections into their operations, relocating can become more disruptive. The resulting retention advantage could support recurring revenue, although it remains an investment thesis rather than a demonstrated NBO2 result.

Zhihu Inc. (NYSE:ZH) disclosed on September 6 that a wholly owned subsidiary had signed a conditional RMB1.5 billion cash commitment to Tianjin Lisi Xingshen Equity Investment Partnership. The agreement, dated September 4, requires shareholder approval, with payments funded internally through capital calls.
Zhihu Inc. (NYSE:ZH) expects to hold no more than 30% of the fund and will have no role in daily management or individual investment decisions. The blind-pool structure asks shareholders to approve a manager and strategy before specific investments are identified. The fund targets early-to-mid-stage private AI and technology companies with significant mainland China connections.
The strategic rationale fits the company's existing capabilities. Zhihu Inc. (NYSE:ZH) is developing AI search, expert-data solutions and AI-enabled content businesses. Exposure to foundation models, infrastructure, robotics and applications could create technology partnerships and help identify emerging customer needs.
A specialist fund also supplies investment research, deal sourcing and portfolio oversight that would require substantial internal resources to replicate. For shareholders, the potential benefit combines investment returns with commercial opportunities for the core content platform. Any cooperation would still require separate **** sment and agreement.
There is an operating business to build around. Second-quarter paid content and intellectual-property operations revenue increased to RMB425.9 million from RMB408.2 million. Zhihu Inc. (NYSE:ZH) also reduced total operating expenses by 13% to RMB469.4 million. These results support a focused approach in which outside technology complements established content and expert relationships.

First Citizens BancShares, Inc. (NASDAQ:FCNCA), through its First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company subsidiary, completed the acquisition of 138 BMO Bank N.A. branches on September 4. The locations span 11 states across the Midwest, Great Plains and West.
The completion announcement did not disclose final transferred balances. At the announcement, First Citizens BancShares, Inc. (NASDAQ:FCNCA) expected to ****** ume approximately $5.7 billion of deposits and acquire $1.1 billion of loans. Its July 2026 update lowered those estimates to $5.3 billion and $700 million, respectively. Both estimates imply roughly $4.6 billion of net liquidity. That difference represents funding capacity, not transaction income, and remains subject to final balances and acquisition accounting.
The deposit franchise could be the transaction's most valuable ****** et. At announcement, the acquired deposits carried a weighted average rate of 1.43%, with 21% in noninterest-bearing demand accounts. First Citizens BancShares, Inc. (NASDAQ:FCNCA) reported a 2.07% average total deposit cost in the second quarter of 2026. Retaining the acquired accounts near their original pricing could lower the consolidated funding cost.
The 138 branches also establish or deepen a presence across 11 states. The original transaction presentation identified approximately $1.0 billion of wealth ****** ets under management, creating opportunities to cross-sell commercial lending, treasury services, and wealth products. Retaining branch personnel could help preserve local relationships.
First Citizens BancShares, Inc. (NASDAQ:FCNCA) can deploy the surplus funding in several ways. As of June 30, 2026, the company held $151.03 billion of loans and $32.19 billion of borrowings, including a $28.42 billion purchase money note owed to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The acquired liquidity could support loan growth, replace more expensive funding, or be invested in securities. The original presentation projected immediate earnings-per-share accretion and an approximately 27-basis-point reduction in the Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio.

Aaron Rodgers has sparked backlash over comments made about his previous relationships.
Appearing on his teammate Cam Heyward's podcast Not Just Football, the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback aired out some dirty laundry pertaining to his relationships with exes Shailene Woodley and Danica Patrick.
Rodgers dated former Nascar driver Patrick from 2018 to 2020, and then actor Woodley from 2020 to 2022. The latter relationship ended in a called off engagement. He is now married to a woman named Brittani, though further details about her and their relationship are unclear.
The controversial NFL player's comments began when he was asked the question: "What do most people get wrong about you?" Instead of offering up a personal anecdote, he launched into verbal tirades against his exes.
"I dated two women who ****** ody gives a f*** about unless they drop my name," Rodgers began. "And they like to say their version of the history of what happened, and so I'm just this monster of a partner, and it's just f***ing horse s***."

Aaron Rodgers has spent years saying relatively little about what ended his engagement to Shailene Woodley. He has now offered a much more explicit version of events, one that does not line up neatly with the public timeline people saw at the time.
During the Sept. 10 installment of Not Just Football with Cam Heyward, Rodgers said he proposed to Woodley in December 2020 and she accepted. He then claimed that only days later, she told him that before they married, she wanted to have **** with another man.
Rodgers also said Woodley had taken off her engagement ring by March 2021 and that later attempts to repair the relationship went nowhere.
Their engagement did not become public until February 2021, while reports that they had split did not emerge until February 2022.
Rodgers raised Woodley while discussing what he believes are inaccurate public narratives surrounding several of his past relationships.

"People could never imagine that I would lack any confidence or belief in the simple things about who I am. Everything was torn to bits. He leaves a trail of blood," Danica Patrick said on the Sage Steele Show back in May 2025 when asked about her split from NFL star Aaron Rodgers. And now, Rodgers has offered a dramatically different version of their relationship, pushing back on Patrick's account and claiming she was struggling emotionally after retiring from racing. His comments have reopened an old chapter while challenging the story Patrick previously shared publicly.
"I dated Danica. She had just retired. She was depressed and not fun to be around. But I didn't leave her because I was trying to be there and be a good partner. Then it was going a certain direction, obviously. There was no intimacy. There was nothing. And I'm buying a house in Malibu and she goes, 'Would you want to buy it together?' and I said no." Aaron Rodgers recently revealed his side of the story on the Not Just Football with Cam Heyward podcast.
Rodgers and Patrick had known each other for years before their romance became public. Patrick has previously recalled meeting the Green Bay Packers quarterback at the ESPYs in 2012, where Rodgers gave her his email address.
The two remained in occasional contact afterward, although their communication was not always consistent. Their relationship eventually became public in January 2018, following the end of their respective previous relationships.

Jennifer Aniston reportedly cannot stop bringing a comparison between her boyfriend, Jim Curtis, to her exes. According to a new report, a source claimed that the "Friends" alum has gained an entirely new perspective on her relationships in the past after her romance with the wellness author and hypnotherapist. The Hollywood star allegedly believes that Jim Curtis is "the best lover" she has ever had.
Jennifer Aniston reportedly believes that "none of her exes can compare" to her current boyfriend, Jim Curtis. As reported by the National Enquirer, a source told them that "Jen fully admits that she and Jim are still in the honeymoon stage." The source then explained that the couple has been in a romantic relationship for more than a year now.
According to the source, it is quite "remarkable" for the actor and the wellness author to still share this type of "electricity," which generally begins to "fade at this point in a relationship."
Furthermore, the insider claimed that Jennifer Aniston can't stop comparing her beau, Jim Curtis, to the others she was in a relationship with in the past. The "Just Go With It" actor was married to Brad Pitt from 2000 to 2005. She also had a married life with Justin Theroux from 2015 to 2018.
Per the insider, according to the actor, the hypnotherapist is "hands down the best lover she's had in every way." The source continued, "Brad was obviously incredibly handsome and there was plenty of passion between them. But looking back, she sees how much of that relationship revolved around him and his needs."

Sen. John Fetterman has faced a tide of public criticism from fellow Democrats as he stakes out lonely ground as a critic of the far-left wing of his party — and another wave rolled in Wednesday after he made a surprise video appearance at the Republican midterm convention.
So far, however, his Senate colleagues haven't joined the pile-on.
Democratic senators are staying above the fray as they work to flip the majority in November amid constant speculation that the 57-year-old Pennsylvanian could trigger a nightmare scenario by leaving the party and caucusing with the GOP.
Some have worked to publicly bat down suggestions that Fetterman could abandon Democrats for the final two years of his term — something he has denied considering, even as he continues to raise eyebrows with his outspoken support of Israel, bashing of democratic socialists and close relationships with Senate Republicans.
"John Fetterman is a friend and an important member of our caucus. It's a waste of energy to get spun up about his voting record or place in our party — he votes with us 90 percent of the time," Democratic Sen. Peter Welch of Vermont, who is close with Fetterman, said in a statement to POLITICO before the convention appearance. "We need a big tent if we're going to win in November."

Aaron Rodgers has opened up about repairing his relationship with his family after years of distance. The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback recently reunited with his parents and brothers. He said the process included difficult conversations but left him in a better place. Rodgers also confirmed that he has reconnected with his younger brother, Jordan Rodgers.
Rodgers discussed the family reunion on the Not Just Football podcast with Steelers teammate Cam Heyward on Thursday, Sept. 10. He said his parents, Ed and Darla Rodgers, planned to move from Chico, California, to Nashville. Rodgers recalled meeting them at the home he bought and built for them on their final day in Chico.
Rodgers said he later traveled to Nashville and met his older brother Luke Rodgers. A few weeks later, he met up with Jordan as well. "It was cool," Rodgers said of the reunions. He also admitted, "There were tough conversations for sure, but I'm just in a much better headspace."
The quarterback surprised fans in July by posting photos with his parents and Luke on Instagram. He wrote in the caption, "Another bonding week." Jordan did not appear in those photos, but Rodgers has now revealed that they have also mended their relationship. He said having his brothers, their families and his parents together has been "really, really special."
Rodgers also credited his wife, Brittani, with helping him reach a point where reconciliation became possible. "My wife deserves a lot of the credit for that just to be able to get to that point to think about having the conversations," he said. Rodgers said her unconditional love changed how he viewed his other relationships.

Aaron Rodgers is dropping more clues about the woman he says he's married to.
During the Thursday, September 10, episode of the Not Just Football with Cam Heyward podcast, the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback, 42 — who has kept his wife, Brittani, entirely out of the spotlight — was asked if she actually existed given what's been said online.
"Yeah," Rodgers said, adding that he doesn't care about what others may think.
"In 2017, I met my wife, and at the time she was leaving the States and going back to Europe," he began. "And my biggest regret is not begging her to stay or just proposing right there because that sent me into a tailspin."
The Super Bowl champ had two failed relationships after that. He dated former pro race car driver Danica Patrick from 2018 to 2020, and then he was in a relationship with Shailene Woodley, whom he was engaged to in 2021.

GFL Environmental Inc. (NYSE:GFL) completed its acquisition of SECURE Waste Infrastructure, adding a specialized waste and energy-infrastructure platform across Western Canada and North Dakota. At the announcement, the transaction had a C$6.4 billion enterprise value, with shareholder consideration comprising 80% GFL shares and 20% cash.
Closing required the issuance of 75,126,306 subordinate voting shares, capacity under the revolving credit facility, and a new US$1 billion senior secured term loan.
