US stocks open up, shrugging off Nvidia woes
NEW YORK — Wall Street stocks advanced early Monday, shrugging off a big drop in Nvidia shares as oil prices retreated and other artificial intelligence stocks rose. Crude prices fell more than four percent on diplomatic hopes concerning the US-Iran war, while many tech giants like Google parent Alphabet and leading AI companies such as Micron were higher after the group badly sold off on Thursday. The "market implicitly decided that whatever happened last week was a one-day event," said Steve Sosnick of Interactive Brokers. About 25 minutes into trading, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 1.4 percent at 52,009.10. The broad-based S&P 500 rose 1.7 percent to 7,499.41, while the tech-rich Nasdaq Composite Index jumped 2.1 percent to 25,087.25. Shares of AI leader Nvidia sank about five percent after the chip company said it launched an investigation on CEO Jensen Huang following reports he was targeted by Chinese intelligence. "Nvidia for now, is being treated as a one-off story," said Briefing.com analyst Patrick O'Hare, adding that investors are being driven more by "an inclination
Senate weighs sweeping energy legislation in first major action since midterm elections
WASHINGTON — The Senate on Monday is set to take up bipartisan legislation aimed at speeding up permitting reviews for data centers and other infrastructure projects, in the first major action since last week’s election that soundly repudiated President Donald Trump and congressional Republicans. The Senate is expected to hold a procedural vote on the bill, which senators and the president have pushed as officials seek to meet growing demand for electricity and other forms of energy that now faces yearslong delays in getting to the grid. The legislation’s sweeping changes would shorten the timeline to get big energy projects started — both for clean energy and fossil fuel projects — and make sure data centers pay for the energy they use. Anger over artificial intelligence data centers and rising electricity helped usher in a wave of Democrats pledging to clamp down on the massive, energy-hungry structures. Trump urged senators to vote for it, calling it a “BIG WIN for U.S. ENERGY INDEPENDENCE and DOMINANCE.” in a social media post on Sunday. The bill will “ensure that we
Oil falls almost 5% as Trump signals restraint on Iran
LONDON — Brent crude futures were down almost 5 percent on Monday after hitting their lowest since early September, after U.S. President Donald Trump downplayed the likelihood of renewed strikes on Iran, though attacks continued on ships near the Strait of Hormuz. Brent crude futures were down $4.57, or 4.65 percent, at $93.75 a barrel by 12:04 p.m. EDT (1704 GMT). Their session low was $92.80 a barrel. U.S. West Texas Intermediate futures fell $3.19, or 3.51 percent, to $87.64. The Brent benchmark plunged by 16 percent last week and touched a two-month low of $93.22, its steepest weekly drop since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. On Sunday, Trump said he was highly unlikely to order fresh attacks on Iran as long as talks to end the conflict progressed. Still, both countries reported that shipping had been hit in or near the Strait of Hormuz. "This seems to have encouraged sellers on the prospects for peace even while the actual fighting is not slowing down," TACenergy analysts said in a note. Last week, Trump had hinted at a resumption of attacks on Iran, and Tehran vowed to respond
Trump returns to US election fraud claims after initial concession
WASHINGTON — U.S. President Donald Trump renewed baseless allegations of election fraud Monday after Democrats swept both chambers of the U.S. Congress, reversing course just days after saying he would accept the midterm results. "Does anybody really believe that this 'Election' was honest. How could the Polls be so wrong???" Trump wrote on Truth Social, alleging without evidence that large early voting "dumps" had made Republican victories impossible. "It's all about the machines, which are far more important than the voter!" he added. The accusations marked a sharp reversal from Trump's initial acceptance of the outcome. "I am absolutely willing to accept those results," he told The New York Times on election night. The president has repeatedly made unfounded claims of election fraud, most notably following his defeat by Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election. "Donald Trump's pathetic return to election denialism was inevitable," said Chuck Schumer, the top Democrat in the U.S. Senate. "He can whine all he wants, but nothing will stop this inescapable truth: For the last two years
IAEA chief welcomes S. Korea's nonproliferation commitment amid nuclear submarine plans
WASHINGTON — International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Rafael Grossi has welcomed South Korea's commitment to upholding its nuclear nonproliferation obligations as the country pursues plans for nuclear-powered submarines. Grossi made the remarks in a post on X following discussions with Jeong Yeon-doo, South Korean vice foreign minister for strategy and intelligence, on regional and global nuclear nonproliferation issues. "I welcome the Republic of Korea's strong commitment to working closely with IAEA and upholding its non-proliferation obligations, including in the context of its plans for naval nuclear propulsion," Grossi wrote. He described the meeting with Jeong as an "important exchange" on nuclear nonproliferation issues in the region and around the world. Grossi also congratulated South Korea on successfully hosting the International Ministerial Conference on Nuclear Power last month and expressed appreciation for Seoul's continued support for the IAEA and its mission. Seoul unveiled the Jang Bogo N project in May, aiming to domestically develop and build nuclea
Biden scales back book tour as cancer 'slows me down'
WASHINGTON — Former U.S. president Joe Biden says he is scaling back plans to promote his upcoming memoir as he battles aggressive prostate cancer, acknowledging that the illness sometimes leaves him struggling. The 83-year-old Democrat, whose health was a major issue during his presidency, said Sunday that he would be unable to make as many public appearances as he had hoped ahead of the November 17 release of "Promise Me, America." "Some days are better than others. It hasn't stopped me. But sometimes it slows me down," Biden wrote on X. "What that means is, unfortunately, I won't be able to do as many conversations about my book as I'd hoped. However, I'm hopeful the words on the page speak for themselves." Biden announced in May 2025, four months after leaving the White House, that he had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that had spread to his bones. He has since undergone radiation and hormone therapy, while his son Hunter said in August that the disease had spread further and was causing considerable pain. Biden struck an optimistic note about his treatment
Pope Leo Mass in Buenos Aires draws record crowd of 2.5 million, Vatican says
BUENOS AIRES — Vast crowds thronged one of the main boulevards in Buenos Aires on Monday as Pope Leo rejoiced at the strength of the Catholic Church in South America during an outdoor Mass that officials said drew a record crowd of 2.5 million people on the first papal trip to Argentina in nearly four decades. Argentines stretched for miles down the Avenida del Libertador, waving the white-and-yellow Vatican flag and pressing against security barriers for a glimpse of the pontiff at the largest event yet of the pope's 12-day South American tour, and of his 18-month tenure leading the global Catholic Church. Chants of "Long live Pope Leo!" echoed down the tree-lined street as the pope was driven by in an open-top popemobile under sunny skies. Leo said in his sermon how happy he was to see Catholics in a region that has long been a stronghold for the Church but where it has been losing ground recently to fast-growing evangelical denominations. "It fills my heart with joy to celebrate... with you," said the pope. "My visit to this land of Argentina has allowed me to see on your faces the
Nvidia's shares slide as chip giant probes CEO over spy claims
SEOUL/SYDNEY — Nvidia shares declined on Monday after an internal investigation into whether CEO Jensen Huang had been targeted by a foreign intelligence effort put his future at the AI chipmaker under scrutiny. The internal probe followed a media report that Huang had a close relationship with a Chinese businesswoman who allegedly passed information to Beijing. Huang told Nvidia's employees that he had been unfaithful to his wife, without disclosing details of the relationship. The investigation, announced on Sunday, has put a spotlight on 63-year-old Huang's future given Nvidia's status as the world's most valuable chipmaker and the CEO's role as the most prolific salesman of the AI boom. The leather-jacketed Huang enjoys rock-star status worldwide, particularly in Asia, where he often mingles freely with fans, taking selfies and signing autographs for his devoted followers. He is Nvidia's fifth-largest shareholder with a roughly 3.6 percent stake, according to LSEG data, and keeps a tight grip on the company through an unusually flat structure in which dozens of executives report di
Nvidia probe into CEO Huang's affair puts spotlight on personal life
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has been one of the poster boys for the AI revolution because his company's chips are essential for the technology. Now his personal life is in the spotlight after revelations of an affair with a purported Chinese spy that triggered an investigation by the board. Here's a look at Jensen Huang. Founded in a fast food franchise Nvidia is a tech giant that's worth more than $4 trillion, making it one of the world's most valuable companies. But the company's beginnings more than 30 years ago were decidedly unglamorous. The company got its start when three engineers — Huang, Chris Malachowsky and Curtis Priem — gathered in 1993 at a Denny's diner in San Jose, California, in what's now the heart of Silicon Valley. They discussed building a computer chip that would make graphics for video games faster and more realistic. That conversation, and the ones that followed, led to the founding of Nvidia. Why Denny's? Huang worked at the restaurant when he was young and his time there appears to have played a big role in his early life. On his LinkedIn profile he lists only tw
Chances of Trump-Kim summit 'go up' after US midterms: expert
WASHINGTON — The chances of another summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un could increase following last week's midterm elections, as Pyongyang may view Trump as a weaker and easier negotiating target following a major Republican defeat, a U.S. expert assessed Monday. "I do think that chances go up of a meeting after the midterm elections," said Victor Cha, Korea chair at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), during a press briefing held to preview potential agendas and meetings during Trump's upcoming trip to Asia. The trip will take Trump to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit in Manila and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Shenzhen, China. He suggested that Pyongyang may have been waiting until after the midterm elections before considering another meeting with Trump, anticipating that he would be in a weaker political position. "They see Trump as weaker and therefore perhaps more vulnerable and easier target," Cha said. He also pointed to Trump's desire to build his diplomatic leg
Trump's close ties to Nvidia's Huang scrutinized after foreign intelligence concerns
WASHINGTON — U.S. President Donald Trump's close relationship with embattled Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang came under renewed scrutiny on Monday, after the company said its board was investigating whether the tech executive has been the target of a foreign intelligence effort. Huang is one of Trump's closest allies in Silicon Valley, and the relationship between the two dates to at least 2025. Over the past two years, he has repeatedly voiced support for the administration's agenda and become a regular presence in Washington as Nvidia sought to sell advanced chips to the Chinese market. Advanced chips are the backbone of the U.S. AI boom and government officials have previously tried to restrict China's access to them through export controls to stifle its AI capabilities. Nvidia's board launched its probe after a New York Times report said Huang had a close relationship with a Chinese businesswoman whom U.S. intelligence officials believe passed information to the Chinese government. Nvidia shares hit a seven-month low on Monday. Huang has a direct line to the president. A Reuters reporter s
Hegseth faces expected US House impeachment vote this week
WASHINGTON — Pete Hegseth, the U.S. defense secretary, calls himself the secretary of war, part of his effort to rebrand a military he said was too weak and "woke" when he took office last year. Now, with a House impeachment vote expected this week, he could soon share something in common with an actual secretary of war. William Belknap, who held that title in 1876, became the first, and to date only, civilian leader of the U.S. military to be impeached by Congress. US Representative Thomas Massie, a Kentucky Republican, introduced articles of impeachment on Monday, setting off a two-day clock for an expected House vote on charges including waging war against Iran without congressional approval and other abuses of power. Congressional sources say the resolution may have the simple majority needed to pass the Republican-controlled House before Democrats take over on January 3. Conviction appears unlikely in the Senate, however, where a two-thirds majority is required and Republicans hold 53 of 100 seats. House Speaker Mike Johnson opposed the effort, saying impeachment “in the middle
French officials blame Iran for refrigerator hacks, vow retaliation
PARIS — French officials on Monday accused Iran's Revolutionary Guards of responsibility for the cyberattacks that knocked out commercial refrigerators and freezers across France last month, saying there would be consequences for Iran. The hacks that struck hundreds of French supermarkets in early October were among the most disruptive cyberattacks of the Iran war that began in February, a conflict that has been marked by scattered incidents of alleged digital disruption. These have included hacks against the Los Angeles transit system in March, against US water treatment plants in July and against ships bound for the United States in August. Iran's mission to the United Nations did not return messages seeking comment. Iran routinely denies carrying out malicious cyber operations. The French announcement was made only minutes after Reuters revealed that investigators privately suspected Iran of being behind the attacks. French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot said the Iranian ambassador had been summoned to France's foreign ministry. Barrot also threatened further EU sanctions again
Trump says Huang had 'no idea' lover was alleged Chinese spy
WASHINGTON — U.S. President Donald Trump took a sympathetic tone towards Jensen Huang on Monday, saying the Nvidia CEO was "suffering greatly" and didn't know a woman he had an affair with was an alleged Chinese spy. Trump also danced around the question of when he personally was aware of intelligence linking the chip boss to Alice Huang, a Chinese executive who had allegedly been funneling information to Beijing. The U.S. leader said he had spoken to Huang earlier on Monday "to see if he's feeling alright," calling the Taiwanese-born tech boss an "amazing guy." "I asked him that question, 'did you have any idea that she was a spy?' He said, 'I had no idea that she was a spy,' and I really believe him," Trump told reporters at the White House. He added: "I hope there is no problem. I believe he is suffering greatly... more so because of his family, his wife, who he loves, and his family. But he's definitely suffering." Jensen Huang sent a message to Nvidia employees on Sunday in which he acknowledged having an affair and apologized to both his family and company staff. Trump said he was
'No ordinary CEO': Why AI race cannot do without Nvidia's Jensen Huang
On the streets of Taipei and Seoul, fans of Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang mob him for autographs on books, posters and sometimes even on their bodies. In private, even billionaires Larry Ellison and Elon Musk were once reduced to "begging" for his coveted AI chips. The star power that 63-year-old Huang draws as the gatekeeper to Nvidia's chips shows how badly the AI industry is leaning on him for the graphics processing units that train models and run services such as ChatGPT. But he is not just a chip supplier; instead Nvidia has in recent years turned its swelling cash pile into a war chest to fund companies ranging from AI cloud-computing providers and suppliers to the biggest labs. Analysts say that makes Huang a potential risk to the AI industry as Nvidia investigates whether he was targeted by foreign intelligence after Huang confirmed his affair with a Chinese businesswoman accused of passing information to Beijing. "It is hard not to read the news over the weekend as negative given it brings the stewardship of one of America's most important companies and the architect of the US AI traj
UK writer M. John Harrison wins Booker for AI-tinged apocalyptic novel
LONDON — UK author M. John Harrison won the Booker Prize on Monday for his enigmatic novel "The End of Everything", which echoes concerns about artificial intelligence in a darkly satirical depiction of post-apocalyptic Britain. Harrison, 81, became the oldest winner of the award, which comes with a £50,000 ($67,000) prize and a boost in sales and profile for the winner. A veteran of the British science fiction literary scene, it was Harrison's first time being shortlisted for the coveted prize, which critics have said was long overdue. He beat shortlisted authors Marlon James, Douglas Stuart, Elizabeth Strout, Luke Kennard and Rebecca Perry, whose entries ranged from a queer epic unfolding in 1980s Kingston to a campus satire set in modern-day London. "The End of Everything" came out "ahead in terms of both its extraordinary expert writing, but also huge ambition," chair of the judges Mary Beard told a press conference. Harrison's 13th novel follows the beachcomber Phillip Tennent and his dementia-stricken, free-spirited aunt Marnie, set in the near-future on the windswept English coa
France blames Iran for last month's cyberattack on supermarket fridges
PARIS — France on Monday blamed Iran for last month's massive cyberattack on supermarket fridges, summoned the Iranian ambassador and said it would seek European sanctions against those responsible for the attack. The Oct. 12 attack sent refrigerator temperatures soaring, affecting about 700 of the country’s 10,000 supermarkets. In a statement Monday, prosecutors in Paris said they found that Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard was behind the large-scale cyberattack. The French Foreign Ministry condemned the attack “in the strongest possible terms,” and French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot, speaking on the sidelines of G7 talks in Paris, said the Iranian ambassador was being summoned to “strongly protest against this extremely serious act.” “This is an attack of unprecedented scale and aggressiveness,” Barrot said. “It is the first large-scale cyberattack aimed at sabotage on French soil, and it represents a major threat to our national interests and the security of the French people. That is why it will not go unanswered.” “We will impose sanctions at th
US aircraft evacuated from second UK base due to Iran threat, WSJ reports
The US military evacuated aircraft from a second airbase in Britain on Monday after a threat from Iran, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter, weeks after the U.S. withdrew its bombers from RAF Fairford airbase over a suspected Iran-linked security incident. Two U.S. refueling tankers that were using the RAF Mildenhall military base diverted to Germany earlier on Monday, while several other tankers at the base were moved to Germany and other locations later in the day, the WSJ report said. According to the Journal, the precise nature of the threat to RAF Mildenhall remains under discussion among U.S. officials. “We do not routinely comment on the activity of other nations. Aircraft and other assets move regularly according to operational requirements,” a British ministry of defense spokesperson said. The Pentagon and the U.S. European Command did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment sent outside regular business hours. Five men were arrested outside RAF Fairford airbase in southwest England in September over a security incident wi
Trump sees 'positive momentum' on Iran after Qatar PM talks
WASHINGTON — US President Donald Trump said on Monday there was momentum toward ending the war with Iran, as he declared that the country "militarily, is effectively over," but kept open the possibility of new strikes. Trump met at the White House with Qatar Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani -- a key mediator in the Iran war. It was his first meeting with a foreign leader since his party's massive losses in the midterm elections. Trump later posted on Truth Social that the two leaders had "an excellent conversation" and that "much was discussed with respect to the Islamic Republic of Iran." In the weeks leading up to the midterms, there was widespread speculation that US strikes against Iran would resume soon after. However, Trump has talked down resuming the conflict while leaving the door open to further strikes -- a position he reiterated Monday at a White House press briefing. "Iran, militarily, is effectively over. We're just keeping it the status quo," Trump told reporters. "But if we do have to go back in, we are locked and loaded, and ready to go." In his so
Nvidia scandal may test fragile US-China truce, experts say
The fallout from the Nvidia scandal may test the fragile truce between the U.S. and China, analysts say, as calls in Washington grow to tighten semiconductor export controls just days before U.S. President Donald Trump is due to meet Chinese leader Xi Jinping in Shenzhen, China. “I think that [scandal] could have a bigger impact down the line during the meeting in Miami or even further down the line,” said Ilaria Mazzocco, a senior fellow at the Centre for Strategic and International Studies. Mazzocco was referring to another Trump-Xi meeting expected in December on the sidelines of the Group of 20 (G20) summit in Miami. Mazzocco added that the bilateral arrangement was underpinned by the leverage each country held over the other, particularly China’s dominance in rare earths, which could limit Washington’s room to tighten restrictions. “It has the potential to deepen mistrust between the U.S. and China at a sensitive moment in bilateral relations,” wrote George Chen, a Partner and Chair of Digital Practice at The Asia Group, in a Substack post. However, some experts argue th
How China gets the Nvidia chips it needs to develop AI
TOKYO — Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has admitted to having an affair, reportedly with a Chinese executive at a Singapore-based company that the United States suspects of smuggling AI microchips into China. The scandal has focused attention on how China, a major artificial-intelligence power in itself, obtains the cutting-edge chips despite US export restrictions. - Why are Nvidia chips so important? - Nvidia designs advanced components originally created to handle 3D visuals in video games, called Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). These have the power to crunch colossal amounts of digital data, so are also used at scale to train and run artificial intelligence. ChatGPT's 2022 launch showcased the potential of AI, sparking an investment gold rush as governments and tech giants raced to develop the technology further. With chip orders pouring in, Nvidia's market valuation has soared to $4.5 trillion -- currently on par with Apple as the world's two most valuable companies. Which chips does the US restrict? Washington bans the export of Nvidia's top-end "Blackwell" and "Rubin" GPUs to China, citi
