Federal Reserve’s Kashkari downplayed market concerns over rising U.S. Treasury yields, saying the market is functioning well and the recent surge is unlikely to impact monetary policy discussions. Kashkari stated on Sunday: “All signs show the U.S. Treasury market is operating normally, trading is proceeding smoothly, and market liquidity is sufficient, so we can use the federal funds rate as the primary policy tool to curb inflation.” U.S. Treasury yields across all maturities rose last week, with the benchmark 10-year yield closing around 4.73%. The 30-year yield held near its highest level since 2007. Kashkari added that while current Treasury yields are high compared to recent historical levels, yields were much higher in the 1990s. “We need more data, but I don’t want to prejudge the outcome of the next meeting. However, I currently don’t think inflation will fall back to the target level in the short term.”

According to Iran's Mehr News Agency, Hassan Kashkavi, spokesperson for the National Security and Foreign Policy Commission of Iran's parliament, announced on Sunday that the commission has adopted Article 3 of the Strategic Action Plan for Ensuring Security and Development of the Strait of Hormuz. Kashkavi stated: "Under this clause, we will charge fees for provided maritime services, environmental services, fuel supply in special circumstances, insurance, security, and other related services." These fees will be levied on vessels of countries granted passage through the Strait of Hormuz, payable in Iranian rials or other currencies designated by the Islamic Republic of Iran. Kashkavi emphasized that the rights of countries along the Strait of Hormuz must be prioritized, noting that international laws and regulations not only recognize freedom of navigation but also stress respect for the security and sovereignty of coastal states and the prevention of infringements on these rights.

Wang Xiaogang, chairman of Chinese embodied intelligence startup ACE Robotics (Daxiao Robotics), told Reuters in an interview: "We expect that by the end of next year, driven by world models and environmental data capture, embodied intelligence will usher in its ChatGPT moment." ACE Robotics, backed by Ant Group and SenseTime, raised over $100 million in the first half of 2026 and plans to launch an IPO "as soon as regulatory approval is obtained." Wang noted that current robots still struggle to reliably perform a wide range of tasks in unfamiliar environments, with the core constraint not being algorithms but a severe shortage of training data. "The entire industry has accumulated only around 100,000 hours of data over the past few years, which is far insufficient to train embodied foundation models." ACE Robotics plans to collect tens of millions of hours of real-world environmental data within two years and deploy its technology to 1,000 stores over the next year. At the industry level, Boston Dynamics released the mass-produced version of its Atlas robot in January, claiming AI has brought it closer to commercial deployment; Alibaba launched the Qwen-Robot Suite robot model kit in June, while researchers are also testing data collection schemes such as the HumanoidExo exoskeleton. The competition in embodied intelligence is shifting from hardware prototypes to a dual race in data scale and model capabilities.

A community user asked CZ about his views on the memestock craze, pointing out that in this model, meme coins are paired with tokenized stocks, which brings inherent utility to meme coins. CZ replied: "This is certainly novel and interesting, but it is necessary to ensure that issuers can actually fulfill their obligations."
