According to South Korea's Economic Forum, Apple (AAPL.O) has signed a long-term supply agreement (LTA) for NAND flash memory with Japan's Kioxia. Speculation in the memory sector indicates the contract has a term of three to five years and may have no price cap. This means Apple, which holds massive bargaining power in memory price negotiations, is prioritizing stable NAND flash supply over cost compression.

The European Central Bank (ECB) is expected to raise its key interest rate for the second time this Thursday, marking the second rate hike since the outbreak of the US-Iran War, but it may issue cautious signals about further increases, as additional hikes would push borrowing costs to levels that suppress economic activity. Eurozone annual inflation rose to 3.3% in August, the highest level in nearly three years and well above the ECB’s 2% target. However, no signs have emerged of the second-round effects policymakers have been concerned about since the war led to the closure of the Hormuz Strait and a surge in energy prices. The longer the war persists and energy prices stay elevated, the greater the likelihood that workers will take action, policymakers note. They are particularly aware that household heating costs will rise sharply as the weather turns colder at the end of the year. ECB President Christine Lagarde is likely to stress the familiar line that interest rates are not on a preset path, especially warning investors not to assume further hikes are inevitable. At the same time, Lagarde is unlikely to rule out additional action, with some economists seeing rising odds of a third rate hike in December. (Jinshi)

Beating AI Express: Alibaba launches QoderWake 1.0, a tool that configures AI agents as "digital employees" and integrates them into real enterprise workflows. Users can generate role drafts by describing a job in one sentence. The platform currently includes 10 built-in roles such as frontend, backend, product manager, data analyst, and content operator, with support for custom roles. The key update in version 1.0 is enabling multiple digital employees to work in teams: different "Wakers" can join the same group, with tasks split by responsibilities. The system uses collaborative SOPs to define task sequences, execution assignments, approval steps, and required confirmation timelines. For instance, a product manager Waker writes requirements, a developer Waker drafts specs, handles development and unit testing, then a tester Waker runs test cases; failed tests are sent back to the developer for revisions. QoderWake also integrates with DingTalk, Lark, and WeChat Work, allowing group chat discussions and confirmed standards to be reused for subsequent tasks. Tasks can be triggered not only by manual @ mentions, but also automatically via schedules, business events, or APIs. High-risk operations are intercepted first and require human authorization. Over the past three months, the company stated nearly 100,000 Wakers have been created, completing around 20 million valid tasks, with roughly half triggered automatically by schedules or events.
