Le Mode (February 2)
“The first measures of the European AI Act will come into effect on Sunday, February 2.” The first stage “only concerns certain prohibited uses.” More specifically, “this Sunday will see a ban on certain uses of AI deemed unacceptable by the AI Act.” Expanded “implementation of the text, which is the most ambitious in the world at this stage, will be gradual and is still the subject of debate, if not outright challenges.”

Institutional Investor (August 4)
“Conventional wisdom isn’t always the wisest.” Conventional wisdom holds that rising interest rates are bad for REITs. This time around, however, REITs “offer value in the face of an interest rate hike. Real estate investment trusts and master limited partnerships are yield plays that should fare well if rates rise gradually.”
