OpenAI's Chairman: No latest updates on the company's IPO timeline.

Fed’s Logan says the Federal Reserve should raise interest rates to address elevated inflation, a comment suggesting she may be prepared to oppose a decision to hold rates steady later this month. Logan noted that June inflation data released on Tuesday showed price gains are slowing, but not enough to convince her inflation is back on track to hit the Fed’s 2% target. “The June CPI data does indicate inflation has the potential to return to the target level, making the outlook more optimistic,” Logan said. “But this path remains very fragile. I currently believe a moderate interest rate hike would help better balance the outlook and risks.” (Jinshi)

Bitcoin pulled back alongside U.S. stocks on Thursday, trading around $64,500 in a range, down roughly 1.5% from the three-week high it notched the prior day.
