A privacy problem that was 23 years old and allowed websites to trace users browsing history via the CSSvisited selector—which altered link colours

A privacy problem that was 23 years old and allowed websites to trace users browsing history via the CSSvisited selector—which altered link colours based on previous visits—will be fixed in Google Chrome 136. Google is implementing triplekey partitioning to address this issue, ensuring that visited links are only recorded within the same site and frame origin, so avoiding crosssite tracking. This update protects user privacy by preventing unwanted access to data. The patch, which has already protected beta testers, will be released on 23 April along with Chrome 136. This represents a substantial security enhancement, reaffirming Chromes dedication to shielding user browsing information from decadesold internet monitoring techniques. Read More..

The U.S. temporarily lifted tariffs on necessary equipment, such as laptops, cellphones, and AI servers, which caused Taiwanese tech stocks to soar. In line with market optimism, major Apple suppliers Foxconn, Quanta, and Inventec reported rises of 4% to 7%. However, Donald Trumps announcement of impending semiconductor tariffs caused TSMC, the biggest contract chipmaker in the world, to go negative, igniting concerns about future trade policy. The exemptions offer some respite, but analysts caution that there is still uncertainty surrounding more extensive U.S.China trade talks.

Goldman Sachs Predicts Oil Price Decline Through 2026 Amid Surplus Concerns

Due to massive stockpiles and slow demand growth, Goldman Sachs predicts that oil prices will continue to fall through 2026. Analysts estimate the excess will reach 800,000 barrels per day in 2025 and 1.4 million barrels per day in 2026. While WTI may drop to $55 per barrel, Brent crude is predicted to average $63 per barrel in 2025 and $58 per barrel in 2026. Trade disputes, OPEC+ loosening supply restrictions, and poor global economic development are the main causes of the decline. Goldman Sachs cautions that Brent prices may fall to about $40 if OPEC+ reverses the voluntary output curbs. This forecast shapes expectations for the oil market in the upcoming years by highlighting worries about oversupply and recession risks. Read More..

Ahead of a $20 billion IMF agreement, Argentina has announced a significant change in its foreign exchange policy, lifting longstanding currency controls. In place of the previously strictly regulated regime, the central bank will permit the peso to fluctuate within a moving range of 1,000 to 1,400 pesos per dollar. Argentina will also remove the "dollar clamp" and other limitations on access to foreign currencies that have restricted financial transactions. To recapitalise the central bank and stabilise reserves, the IMF accord calls for an initial $12 billion transfer. In contrast to Argentinas prior monetary policies, officials anticipate that these actions will increase investment and economic growth. Read More..
