OpenAI has expanded Project Stargate, a $500 billion AI infrastructure endeavour started with SoftBank, with Oracle through a historic $30 billion yearly cloud arrangement. Leasing 4.5 gigawatts of U.S. data centre capacity is part of the deal to accommodate OpenAIs expanding computing requirements. With the intention of "securing American leadership in AI," Oracle plans to construct additional facilities in places like Texas, Michigan, and Wisconsin. The transaction signals OpenAIs transition away from Microsoft and towards a multicloud strategy. According to Oracle CEO Safra Catz, the deal would increase revenue beginning in fiscal 2028 and could double Oracles cloud revenue. Oracle is now a key participant in the global AI arms race, and the move highlights the growing competitiveness in AI infrastructure. Read More..

Cloudflare Launches ‘Pay per Crawl’ to Let Publishers Charge AI Bots for Access

With a new solution from Cloudflare, website owners may now profit from access to AI bot crawlers using a "pay per crawl" paradigm. By charging publishers microfees for content scraping or blocking AI crawlers by default, the solution gives authors more control over how their work is used. With AI models increasingly extracting data without referencing the original sources, this change addresses the decline in referral traffic. Prominent publishers including Reddit, TIME, and Condé Nast back the effort. A permissionbased ecosystem is the goal of Cloudflares solution, which also authenticates AI bots and enforces access limits. The action balances innovation with just recompense for artists, marking a significant shift in the way content is valued online. Read More..

A recent trade agreement between the United States and China allows Chinese students to attend American institutions and gives American firms access to rare earth materials. Following previous negotiations in Geneva and London that reduced tariff tensions, President Trump announced the agreement, which Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed. While the U.S. will relax some limitations on Chinese nationals, China will speed up export certifications for rare earths, which are essential for technology and defence. Both sides referred to the agreement as "signed and sealed," but neither party provided exact volumes or deadlines. In light of the uncertain global economy, the agreement represents a major deescalation in trade hostilities and reflects shared efforts to stabilise supply chains and strengthen bilateral connections.

Piyush Goyal to Meet Exporters Amid May Decline and West Asia Tensions

On June 30, Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal will meet with exporters and business executives to discuss Indias export difficulties in the context of West Asian tensions and continuing trade talks with the United States, United Kingdom, and European Union. Following a 2.17% drop in Mays goods exports, the government is aiming for $900 billion in exports in FY26. Freight costs, reciprocal tariffs, and trade disruptions—particularly with regard to the textile industry—will all be discussed. India depends on the Strait of Hormuz for its energy imports, and the ceasefire between Iran and Israel has reduced shipping dangers along this crucial route. Additionally, India is working to complete free trade agreements and prevent tariff increases before the July 9 reciprocaltariff suspension deadline. Read More..

Thai Finance Minister Heads to U.S. to Avert 36% Tariff on Exports

In an effort to avoid imposing a high 36% tariff on Thai exports, Thai Finance Minister Pichai Chunhavajira is visiting the United States for two days

In an effort to avoid imposing a high 36% tariff on Thai exports, Thai Finance Minister Pichai Chunhavajira is visiting the United States for two days of exchange discussions. There is urgency since a moratorium ends on July 9 and, if no new agreement is reached, the U.S. may slap even higher tariffs. Most countries are currently subject to a 10% tariff during the hiatus. It was hoped by Chunhavajira that Thailands rate would not be higher than that of other nations. The goal of Thai officials is to achieve better terms and prolong the negotiation window. For Thai exporters, the negotiations are crucial since a bad outcome might increase costs and reduce competitiveness in the already volatile world trade environment. Read More..
