MediaTek Developing ArmBased PC Chip to Compete with Apple and Intel

To threaten Intels hegemony in the PC industry and rival Apples Armbased Mac processors, MediaTek is creating an Armbased PC chip that will run Microsofts Windows operating system. Arms readymade designs will let this chip, whose introduction is scheduled for late next year, accelerate development. Microsofts Windows for Arm optimisation may cause Intels established dominance in the PC industry to falter. The announcement caused MediaTeks shares to increase by 2.4%. This move is consistent with Microsofts goal, which was previously led by Qualcomm—whose exclusivity agreement with Microsoft expires in 2024—to improve AI capabilities in consumer computing. Other businesses, such as Nvidia and AMD, are also investigating Armbased solutions for Windows Nvidia and MediaTek are working together independently on Nvidias PC chip initiatives. Read More..

Egypts Central Bank Stabilizes Interest Rates at 27.75% Following Consecutive Hikes

After two consecutive raises of 800 basis points, Egypts Central Bank stabilised interest rates in 2024 for the first time, with rates currently stand

After two consecutive raises of 800 basis points, Egypts Central Bank stabilised interest rates in 2024 for the first time, with rates currently standing at 27.75%. In May, inflation dropped from 32.5% in April to 28.1% due to the governments decision to liberalise the exchange rate of the Egyptian pound in May. The Central Banks monetary tightening strategy, which has reduced inflation and stabilised currency rates, is credited for this stability. As inflationary pressures lessen, forecasts call for additional inflation reduction through 2024, with a notable fall expected in the first half of 2025. This success has been aided by recent policies that target excess liquidity and the parallel currency market, offsetting the significant inflation of the previous year brought on by the fast expansion of the money supply.

Bitcoin Volatility Persists, Dips Below $71,000 Amid Strong Jobs Report

Bitcoin had significant volatility over the weekend, falling below $71,000 in response to a strong May employment report that surprisingly added 272,0

Bitcoin had significant volatility over the weekend, falling below $71,000 in response to a strong May employment report that surprisingly added 272,000 jobs and raised hopes for possible interest rate reductions in September. Despite the decline, Bitcoin is still above $69,000, indicating a cautious attitude among investors. The upbeat jobs news also caused a selloff in the larger cryptocurrency market, with meme currencies like GME suffering significant losses. The activity in the derivatives market increased, and at the same time, as inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs persisted, positions in Bitcoin futures reached a record high of $37.7 billion. If Bitcoin breaks over $72,000 and completes an inverted headandshoulders pattern, analysts predict it might go for $83,000. Read More..

Tesla is looking to its retail investors, who make up a sizable chunk of its ownership base, for support as its $56 billion compensation plan for Elon Musk has caused debate among large shareholders.

Musk has reported significant support for the compensation settlement. The success of these initiatives still needs to be determined since influential proxy advisers warn against ratifying the package. Read More..
