1320 ET – Recent AI security incidents disclosed by OpenAI are a cause for concern, Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman says on CNBC. An OpenAI model seems to have tampered with the log of its chain-of-thought reasoning, which was “modified to leave messages for a future version of itself,” Suleyman says, citing the company’s recent security disclosures. “We don’t know why that is or what’s behind that, but that’s a pretty serious situation.” He praises OpenAI’s disclosure of the incident but says it demonstrates the growing power and capability of leading AI models.(elias.schisgallwsj.com)

1006 ET – U.S. pending home sales fell 3.5% week-over-week to their lowest level in almost three years, Redfin says. Declining homebuying demand is giving buyers breathing room. It means less competition and more room to negotiate for the house hunters who are still shopping. New listings fell slightly, -0.5%, from a week earlier, but they’re still up 1.5% year-over-year, and there are still hundreds of thousands more home sellers than buyers in the market. More homes on the market equals less pressure on buyers to rush into a decision or pay more than they want. Home-sale prices are holding steady. The median home-sale price rose 2% year-over-year. That stability means prices aren’t soaring, and that sellers aren’t in immediate danger of home values dropping. (chris.wackwsj.com)

1443 ET – Precious metal futures settle higher in New York, recovering from a swoon in the wake of yesterday’s Federal Reserve interest-rate increase. “My sense is that they will lag while we’re in a rate-hiking cycle, and right now we’re fairly clearly in a rate-hiking cycle,” says David Russell, global head of market strategy at TradeStation. There are a lot of arguments in favor of gold, in terms of central bank buying and an alternative to the dollar, but the current macro environment “is not in any way textbook favorable for gold and silver,” he adds. Front-month gold settles up 0.3% to $4,360.20 a troy ounce, and silver rises 1.8% to $65.47 a troy ounce. (anthony.harrupwsj.com)
1118 ET – Gold futures recover losses that followed the Fed’s rate hike as Treasury yields move lower and the dollar slips, while oil prices extend their pullback to a second day. “Gold is rangebound with two-way risk, but the large bull market we had seen earlier in the year is considered on pause for now,” Pepperstone strategist Ahmad ******* iri says in a note. The bull market could continue at some stage with underlying drivers such as central bank demand, macro uncertainty, and fiscal concerns, he says. But “the path of oil prices and their transmission into Fed policy remains the single most important variable from now till year-end.” The December contract is up 0.4% in New York at $4,404.90 a troy ounce. Silver rises 2.3% to $66.44 a troy ounce. (anthony.harrupwsj.com)

1528 ET – Q/C Technologies shares mostly rebounded from a 67% drop Monday and a 52-week low Tuesday, more than doubling late Wednesday. The optical-computing company late Friday disclosed that consulting agreements with an entity affiliated with Martin Shkreli and with OpenAI scientist Chelsea Voss were mutually terminated. Voss also resigned from the board. Earlier Wednesday, adviser James Altucher posted on X about the company’s AI-powered platform for chip design, which coincided with an intraday peak in the company’s share price. Shares were recently at $1.06, up 139%, amid very volatile trading and still below Friday’s close of $1.71. (josh.beckermanwsj.com)

1546 ET – Treasury yields settle at new multi-year highs as markets price a Fed hike while facing an uncertain long-term outlook. Inflation expectations hover around 2.5%, as measured by one-year swap rates, according to LSEG, higher than the Fed’s 2% target. That’s up from below-target expectations in early August. A 20-year Treasury auction clears at the highest yield since 1986, shortly before the tenor was discontinued, and since it was reintroduced in 2020. Demand indicators in the sale come on the soft side. The 10-year yield rises 0.035 percentage point to 4.995%, the highest since July 2007. The two-year adds 0.028 points to 4.661%, highest since July 2024. (paulo.trevisaniwsj.com; ptrevisani)
1430 ET – Treasury yields tick higher as investors demand steeper returns to lend money to Washington long-term. A 20-year Treasury bond auction clears at a yield of 5.42%, the highest since 1986, when the tenor was discontinued, and since it was reintroduced in 2020. Still, demand indicators were on the soft side: the 2.57 bid-to-cover ratio was below the previous six-month average of 2.65, while indirect bidders, a group that includes foreign investors, took 52.5% of the bonds, also below average. The 20-year trades at 5.414%, up from 5.401% before the auction, while the 10-year rises to 5.014% from 4.996%. (paulo.trevisaniwsj.com; ptrevisani)

Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET) is set to move the primary listing of its common and Series I preferred units from the New York Stock Exchange to the Texas Stock Exchange in early October, making it the first major company to make such a switch from the NYSE to the newly established Dallas exchange. Reuters said the companies moving to TXSE, including Energy Transfer and related energy businesses, represent nearly $100 billion in combined market value, giving the fledgling exchange an important early credibility boost.
For Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET), however, the more important question is whether the move can eventually translate into better investor visibility or valuation rather than simply giving the company a stronger Texas identity. WSJ reported that Energy Transfer is worth roughly $75 billion and that Executive Chairman Kelcy Warren is a major backer of TXSE, owning about 30% of its parent company. That relationship makes the listing particularly significant, but it also means investors may scrutinize whether the decision creates a tangible benefit for Energy Transfer unitholders rather than primarily helping establish the new exchange.
The strongest bull argument is that Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET) is positioning itself ahead of a potentially important shift in the U.S. energy infrastructure market. TXSE is backed by major financial institutions including BlackRock, Citadel Securities, and Charles Schwab, and winning a roughly $75 billion company gives the exchange substantially more credibility with institutional investors. If TXSE attracts additional large energy companies, Energy Transfer could benefit from becoming one of the exchange's anchor names and gaining greater visibility among investors already focused on Texas-based energy infrastructure.
More importantly, the listing decision fits the underlying environment in which Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:ET) operates. Reuters has highlighted continued investment in U.S. gas-fired generation, LNG infrastructure, and pipeline networks as electricity demand rises and countries seek reliable energy supplies. The U.S. is also building substantial additional LNG export capacity. That matters because Energy Transfer's extensive midstream network can benefit from higher volumes of natural gas, crude oil, and NGLs without taking the same direct commodity-price exposure as upstream producers. If rising power demand from data centers and continued LNG development drive greater demand for U.S. gas transportation, Energy Transfer could see expanding opportunities to place additional infrastructure into service and lock in long-duration cash flows.

1420 ET – Gold futures hold steady as a pullback in oil prices helps offset the impact of an inflation report that increased expectations for a Fed interest-rate rise next week. Front-month gold settles little changed on the day in New York at $4,366.20 a troy ounce, and is down 1.4% for the week. Gold and silver remain within a range of strong support, says Peter Cardillo of Spartan Capital, and if the Fed does raise interest rates next week “it’s symbolic since the bond market had already tightened.” Silver settles up 0.4% at $64.554 a troy ounce, down 2.3% from a week ago. (anthony.harrupwsj.com)
1306 GMT – Gold prices rebounded after oil prices fell more than 2.5%, easing some inflationary concerns. Futures in New York rise 0.3% to $4,422.40 a troy ounce, but remain on track for a weekly loss. U.S. consumer prices accelerated in August, bolstering market expectations that the Federal Reserve could raise interest rates next week. According to the FedWatch tool, traders are now pricing in a nearly 87% probability that the U.S. central bank will raise interest rates next week, from around 67% earlier on Friday. Still, “while the markets appear to be placing their proverbial bets on a hike, it’s likely that members of the FOMC won’t be quite as unequivocal,” says Kyle Rodda from Capital.com. “The doves on the committee, of which there are many, are likely to argue the case that the dip in annual core inflation justifies patience.” (giulia.petroniwsj.com)

1423 ET – Apple officially launches the iPhone Duo, its long-awaited, foldable iPhone model. The device has a wide inner display, allowing the simultaneous use of multiple apps, and folds into a roughly passport-sized device with an outer screen.

1423 ET – Apple officially launches the iPhone Duo, its long-awaited, foldable iPhone model. The device has a wide inner display, allowing the simultaneous use of multiple apps, and folds into a roughly passport-sized device with an outer screen. The model represents the company’s largest change yet to its iconic line of mobile phones, and is the thinnest iPhone to date when unfolded, Apple says at its fall product showcase. The phone also features Apple’s new mobile chip, the A20 Pro. “iPhone Duo brings an entirely new design while preserving everything you love and expect from the iPhone,” Apple’s new CEO, John Ternus, says.

1525 ET – Oil futures settle at their highest level since May 22 as strikes between the U.S. and Iran escalate and Houthis step up attacks on Saudi oil facilities. The escalation is cause for concern as inventories are low and drawing down and it doesn’t look like the U.S. is making any progress with the conflict, says John Deal, managing director of capital markets at Post Oak Group. “I frankly think we’re in really risky territory right now,” he says, with significant risk of damage to infrastructure in Saudi Arabia. “I wouldn’t be surprised, if this conflict doesn’t wrap up soon, I think we could be looking at prices over $100 maybe as high as $120.” Brent settles up 3.4% at $101.21 a barrel, and WTI rises 3.2% to $96.05. (anthony.harrupwsj.com)
1233 ET – Renewed fighting between the U.S. and Iran is dimming prospects for an agreement to settle the conflict, creating scope for sustained upside in crude, says Nikos Tzabouras of Tradu. But crude oil continues to find a way out of the Persian Gulf and the U.S. still prefers to pressure Tehran and its enablers through economic measures, he adds. “President Trump may also be incentivized to seek an off-ramp as the conflict increasingly clashes with his domestic agenda, with the midterms getting closer.” WTI is up 3.5% at $96.25 a barrel and Brent gains 3.2% to $101.08.(anthony.harrupwsj.com)

1444 ET – Gold futures make small gains despite a rise in Treasury yields after the Treasury Department said it would buy back $6 billion in bonds this week, less than some in the market expected. The dollar weakened, however, which tends to support gold. An easing in ******* anese yields and continued central bank buying—with China’s central bank adding 20 tons in August—also helped support prices, while the market remains focused on U.S. inflation data later this week, Konstantinos Chrysikos of Kudo.com says in a note. Front month gold settles up 0.5% in New York at $4,416 a troy ounce. Silver gains 2.5% to $67.942 a troy ounce. (anthony.harrupwsj.com)
1150 ET – Gold futures are steady as bond yields rise after the Treasury says it will buy up to $6 billion of longer-term debt at its Thursday buyback operation. The precious metals market is also focusing on this week’s inflation data—producer prices due Thursday and consumer prices on Friday. Gold’s recent slippage came as high Treasury yields, firmer Fed rate-hike expectations and rising oil prices “collectively outweighed dollar softness,” Kaynat Chainwala of Kotak Neo says in a note. Softer inflation readings would reduce the probability of a rate increase “and open the path toward the $4,500 resistance zone,” while an above-estimate result along with high energy prices “would likely reinstate selling pressure and bring the $4,300 support zone into focus.” Front month gold is up 0.2% at $4,401.20 a troy ounce.

Notre Dame is now number three in the ***** ociated Press Top 25 poll after beating Wisconsin 41-13 in Week 1.
That's a one-spot jump. Notre Dame received four first-place votes.
Ohio State is now number one, with Georgia, Texas and Indiana rounding out the top five.
There were few big movers, but Oregon did slide four spots to No. 6 after winning a close one over Boise State. Michigan dropped out of the Top 25 despite hanging to win against Western Michigan on a controversial Hail Mary.

But the foundation of these gains are possibly not as strong as some may have hoped. “Perpetual-futures positioning shows the move up came mostly from shorts being liquidated and covered; few new long positions were opened, and shorts have started to rebuild,” say ******* ysts with CryptoQuant in a note. Bitcoin has broken through the $80,000 mark, trading up 4.7% to $81,054. Ethereum rises 4.7% to $2,506, XRP climbs 7.4% to $1.45, and Solana is up 4.8% to $104.45. (kirk.maltaiswsj.com)

The market is closely watching for Friday’s employment report, where a strong jobs showing could add to Fed rate-hike expectations. ADP reported a smaller-than-expected 38,000 increase in private-sector jobs in August. “Softer data can ease the downside risk, while stronger figures or more hawkish Fed comments may trigger additional weakness,” Konstantinos Chrysikos of Kudo.com says in a note.

1523 ET – Oil futures rise for a third straight session as strikes between the U.S. and Iran raise concerns about further escalation and oil flows out of the Persian Gulf. The EIA reported a bigger-than-expected 4.5 million barrel draw in U.S. commercial crude oil stocks for last week, while the Department of Energy released another 3.1 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. The withdrawal “keeps attention on the increasingly tight market dynamics,” says David Russell of TradeStation. Diesel stocks are at the lowest on record for the time of year as farmers and truckers enter their high-demand season, he adds. “Supply and demand fundamentals are taking over as government intervention loses effect and the SPR reaches critical levels.” WTI settles up 0.9% at $91.01 a barrel and Brent rises 1% to $95.63. (anthony.harrupwsj.com)
1611 GMT – Oil prices rise in volatile trade, with Brent crude above $95 a barrel after U.S. crude stockpiles saw a larger-than-expected drop last week. Brent is up 0.9% to $95.50 a barrel, while WTI futures rise 0.5% to $90.67 a barrel. Renewed military strikes between the U.S. and Iran are dimming hopes for a near-term resolution of the conflict and reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, keeping the geopolitical risk premium high. Meanwhile, according to the EIA, commercial crude oil stocks excluding the Strategic Petroleum Reserve were down by 4.5 million barrels in the week ended Aug. 28, compared with expectations of a 300,000-barrel fall. “Oil is now more than 30% higher since the conflict began in February, with refined-product markets facing even greater tightness,” says Soojin Kim from MUFG.

1552 ET – Mexico’s pipeline imports of U.S. natural gas were a record near 7.9 billion cubic feet a day in August, with gas for electricity generation in Mexico last month at an all-time high 5.8 Bcf/d, Wood Mackenzie says in a release. The firm projects that exports to Mexico have reached their 2026 peak. While volumes remain strong in early September, “Mexican gas and power markets are set to enter a gradual seasonal decline, driven by easing cooling loads, shoulder-season maintenance windows, and holiday-related demand softness.” The medium-term trend remains upward, however, as Mexico continues expanding its fleet of combined-cycle power plants, Wood Mackenzie adds.

1608 ET – Treasury yields spike amid rising inflation expectations. U.S. and Iran exchange fire and crude rallies 5%, surpassing $90.

The 10-year yield adds 0.038 percentage point to 4.795%, while the two-year rises 0.044 p.p. to 4.392%, both at their highest since January 2025 and up for five consecutive sessions.

Big dealmaking continues at a rapid clip for AI infrastructure play Hut 8 (HUT).
Hut 8 is developing the data center in Nueces County, Texas, that will be leased by Nvidia (NVDA) as part of a new $35 billion cloud-computing deal between Anthropic (ANTH.PVT) and Nvidia-backed Lambda, according to a new report from the WSJ.
Hut 8 shares rose as much as 4% in premarket trading on Tuesday.
"We have many projects that we are at late stage on," Hut 8 CEO Asher Genoot said on Yahoo Finance's Opening Bid in late August (video above). "We have early-stage [projects] across the whole pipeline. We have 11 that we've disclosed publicly. That doesn't include any behind-the-meter opportunities that we're working on. That doesn't include any M&A opportunities. So we have a ton of projects we're working on."
Hut 8 has a remarkable transformation story, evolving from a bitcoin miner to one of the most important AI data center operators in North America.
