📊 **Markets are back on inflation watch.**
Global markets are starting September 8 on a cautious note as **Brent crude approaches $100 a barrel** following renewed attacks on Saudi energy infrastructure. The surge is reviving concerns about supply disruptions—and about what higher energy costs could mean for inflation.
U.S. stock futures have weakened, Asian equities are under pressure, and Treasury yields are edging higher as investors reassess the outlook for interest rates. Attention now turns to upcoming U.S. inflation data, which could play a major role in shaping expectations for the Federal Reserve’s September decision.
Meanwhile, the longer-term debt picture remains challenging: OECD governments are collectively facing **more than $2 trillion in annual debt-servicing costs**, highlighting just how expensive the higher-rate environment has become.
**The big takeaway:** oil, inflation, interest rates, and bond yields are once again moving to the center of the market narrative—and their next moves could set the tone for equities, currencies, and fixed income.

The race to decode animal language with AI
Tech Now's Nick Kwek meets a US entrepreneur using AI to decode animal language. The project explores what scientists already understand about animal communication, how new technology could translate it, and the ethical questions raised as humans move closer to interpreting other species.

Bitcoin Knots developer Luke Dashjr claims major exchanges are selling “fake bitcoins” by supporting the SHA-256 chain after the recent hard fork ⚠️
Dashjr argues exchanges that do not operate their own full nodes may be following the wrong chain and calls the SHA-256 version “Spamcoin”.
The fork permanently changed the new chain from SHA-256 to BLAKE2b, making existing Bitcoin ASIC mining equipment incompatible ⛏️
Major exchanges have not listed the forked asset, while a small venue briefly traded it under the BTCB2 ticker with extremely weak liquidity.
Miner support also failed to materialize, with signaling peaking at only 2.53% versus the 55% threshold needed for the proposed fork 📉
Since the September 1 split, hashrate on the new BLAKE2b chain has continued to decline, leaving Dashjr largely isolated 👀
The main Bitcoin network continues to attract miners and traders while the fork struggles to gain meaningful market or industry support 📊
Today's Pill - a blockchain fork needs broad exchange, miner and market support to establish legitimacy, not simply a competing technical vision 🔄

🤖 Nvidia ($NVDA) just made history, its first-ever year-ahead revenue forecast! 📊
Fiscal 2028 revenue guidance: 70% growth, blowing past the 44% analysts expected 🚀
This comes right after a blowout quarter:
📍 Revenue more than doubled to $96.22B (+106% YoY)
📍 Data center revenue hit $89B (+117% YoY), now 92% of total sales
📍 Shares jumped ~8.7%, lifting the entire semiconductor sector 📈
CEO Jensen Huang says AI has crossed into "productive, profitable work" and demand may exceed even this record guidance 👀
But it's not all upside ⚠️
📍 Growth is supply-constrained (memory shortages driving costs up)
📍 Supply commitments more than doubled to $279B in one quarter
📍 The forecast excludes China entirely — a major geopolitical wildcard
Is Nvidia truly on track to overtake Apple and Alphabet in revenue, or is this forecast too good to be true? 🤔

🌍 **Markets are starting the week with a new inflation dilemma.**
Oil is back near **$97/barrel for Brent**, as geopolitical tensions around the Strait of Hormuz raise concerns about energy supply. That matters because higher energy prices can feed directly into inflation — and potentially keep interest rates higher for longer.
At the same time, Asian tech stocks are rallying, helped by optimism around AI and stronger economic data. But investors are facing a difficult balancing act: **growth vs. inflation, risk appetite vs. higher yields.**
🇷🇴 **Romania is worth watching too.**
The BET index closed Friday at **34,414 points, down 1.03%**, after reaching an intraday high of almost 34,969. The index remains heavily influenced by banks and energy names such as Banca Transilvania, OMV Petrom, Romgaz and Hidroelectrica.
One particularly interesting development: **Electro-Alfa International could enter the BET index**, potentially replacing Sphera Franchise Group following the latest index review.
📌 **The big question for investors this week:**
If energy prices remain elevated, will inflation become the dominant market story again — and how will that affect Romanian equities and bonds?

The US Labour day holiday is upon us.
When I look back to my time as an investment bank trader, there was a fascination with this holiday, where it fell in the year, and how it impacted markets.
The general attitude was we are into the final straight of the year.
