Saudi Arabia's critical East-West crude oil pipeline will start operating again "very soon" after Iran-backed attacks forced its closure, U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright told CNBC in an interview Tuesday. "This will be a brief and temporary interruption," Wright told CNBC's Morgan Brennan at a meeting of G20 nations in Houston. "It will be measured in days." The Saudis closed the pipeline late last week after it sustained damage in drone attacks launched from Iraq. Iran-backed proxy groups were responsible for the strikes, Wright said. Riyadh has relied on the pipeline to shift crude oil exports to the Red Sea as the U.S. and Iran battle for control over the Strait of Hormuz. The Saudis are now shifting some oil exports back through Hormuz with U.S. military support while the pipeline is down, Wright said. U.S. crude oil prices have gained more than 5% this week to trade above $105 per barrel, as the market tries to assess how big a supply disr...

The full, flat-rate state pension is expected to rise by 488 a year in April, based on the latest official earnings figure released on Tuesday. The so-called triple lock pension policy guarantees that the state pension will increase by either average wage growth, inflation or 2.5% - whichever is highest. Labour made a manifesto pledge to keep the triple lock until 2029, however economists have warned about the cost of the policy ahead of the Budget although pensioner groups say many people still face poverty in old age. 'Substantial' cost The triple lock was designed to ensure the value of the state pension was not overtaken by the increase in the cost of living or the incomes...

As researchers warn that AI could pose catastrophic risks, some of the pioneers who helped develop the technology are weighing in with additional warnings on the dangers of unfettered advances in capability. A series of stark AI safety warnings has emerged over the past week, with researchers from major AI labs like Anthropic, OpenAI and Google DeepMind all sounding the alarm about potentially catastrophic risks from developing the technology. AI bosses including Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, Demis Hassabis and Elon Musk have shown rare agreement in calling for a slowdown and regulatory oversight. Meanwhile, concerns have also intensified debate in Washington. While some members of Congress from both Democratic and Republican parties have advocated for bills to check the progress of AI, U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday raged against growing calls for AI regulation. But what do the people who helped create AI think of the existential risks many are currently building the technology to...

The U.S. said for the first time Monday that the Space Force has deployed weapons in orbit. U.S. Air Force Secretary Troy Meink told the Air and Space Cyber Conference that the U.S. has "on-orbit space control weapons," as he outlined a broader push to modernize the Air Force and Space Force in response to advances by U.S. adversaries, AI, and the growing use of autonomous weapons. He did not specify what kind of weapons in space had been deployed, or when, according to the official Air Force account . "It's a strategic consideration to not disclose what exactly this is," Juliana Suess at the German Institute of International and Security Affairs and an expert in space security told CNBC. The capability of the weaponry could range from reversible interference, such as jamming, to kinetic, permanently destructive effects, she said. "This could be anything. The only thing that we know is that it is based in space, so this is not a sort of missile based on Ea...

Ray Dalio says the US faces a debt crisis in three years, give or take two.’ 5 things Americans can do now Aditi Ganguly Tue, September 15, 2026 at 4:45 AM PDT 13 min read Moneywise and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue through links in the content below. Billionaire Ray Dalio warned last week that the U.S. is heading for a major debt crisis, likening the nation to a person on the verge of a heart attack. The Bridgewater Associates founder wrote in an August 21 LinkedIn post (1) that a $4 billion U.S. debt buyback (2), combined with rising bond yields (3), a weak dollar and a Japanese sell-off of U.S. bond holdings all point to a potential government debt crisis, which can result in "the equivalent of an economic heart attack that comes when the constriction of debt-financed spending shuts down the normal flow of the economic circulatory system."

Treasury yields continued to rise sharply across the curve on Tuesday, sending the yield on the benchmark 10-year note above the closely watched 5% level. The 10-year Treasury yield added 7 basis points to 5.029% by 5 a.m. ET, while yields elsewhere on the curve rose roughly 4 to 6 basis points. Yields on the 20-year and 30-year Treasurys were last seen at 5.434% and 5.391%, respectively. U.S. Treasury yields Global yields followed Treasury yields higher, with government borrowing costs rising in Japan, Germany, the U.K., France, and elsewhere. Bond yields and prices move in opposite directions, with 1 basis point equating to 0.01 percentage point. While the moves in the bond market fueled questions about what's in store for the Federal Reserve's two-day September meeting which begins Tuesday they also raised concerns about the outlook for global equities. Sovereign bond yields influence borrowing costs not just for the governments that issue them, but also for consumers and ...

The U.S. has filed a civil forfeiture complaint against $61 million in cryptocurrency that it alleges proceeds from black-market sales of sanctioned Iranian crude oil and petroleum products. The complaint, brought by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, alleged Tehran used a network of cryptocurrency actors in China and elsewhere to launder more than $1.5 billion in illicit oil money intended to benefit the Iranian military and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. These proceeds were intended to finance the Iranian government and military components. "Today we are seizing and seeking to forfeit more than $61 million of the Government of Iran's money, which otherwise would have promoted hostile military action and terrorist attacks against the U.S. and our allies," Deputy U.S. Attorney Sean S. Buckley said in a statement. Two Chinese companies, named Blessed Trust and Hexa Whale, allegedly used trading accounts at the Binance crypto exch...

Why JPMorgan Is Betting That Lithium Americas Stock Will Double. Subhasree Kar Sun, September 13, 2026 at 12:30 PM PDT 5 min read LAC JPM Businessman trading stock market on teblet screen by Nespix via iStock Lithium Americas Corp. (LAC) is back on Wall Street's radar after JPMorgan turned bullish on the lithium developer, upgrading the stock to an "Overweight" rating from "Neutral" and setting a $6 price target. The target implies close to 100% upside from the stock's previous close, giving investors a potentially significant re-rating opportunity if the bank's bullish assumptions play out. The call reflects a more constructive outlook for lithium prices. JPMorgan recently raised its lithium price assumptions, arguing that lithium carbonate prices have remained above $20 per kilogram and that the market could face a supply deficit through the end of the decade. Those higher price assumptions materially improve JPMorgan's estimates for Lithium Ameri...

By Peter Hoskins Business reporter Published 16 minutes ago US President Donald Trump has said fears about the safety of AI are a "hoax", as he criticised calls to have more guardrails for the fast-moving technology. It comes after Jack Clark, a co-founder of AI giant Anthropic, told the BBC that a "kill switch" for dangerous AI that can be checked by a third party may need to be mandatory for the industry. Clark's comments followed warnings about the risks the technology poses to humanity that have been raised in recent days by several executives and staff at leading AI firms. Those concerns triggered a selloff in shares of some tech firms on Monday as investors weighed the impact of a potential slowdown in the development of AI. In a series of social media posts on Monday, the...

Pay is back on the rise for job switchers, even in low-hire job market Kerry Hannon Senior Columnist Sun, September 13, 2026 at 8:45 AM PDT 5 min read ADP Changing jobs is looking lucrative again. Base pay for job changers in the private sector increased 4.7% in August, compared to 3% for job stayers, according to the latest report from payroll provider ADP. When you consider gross pay, which includes tips, commissions, and bonuses, wages for job stayers rose 4.4% year over year, while gross pay for job changers increased substantially more: 7.3%. In another recent report, the job-jumping news was just as promising. The median pay increase for workers switching jobs rose to 5% last month from 4.4% in July, according to new data from the Atlanta Fed. For those who stay put, the average pay increase was 3.6%, the same as in July. "There is an opportunity to boost wages by changing jobs, even in this low-hire, low-fire jobs market," ADP chief economist Nela Richardson said. ...

Alibaba and Amazon Face the Same AI Spending Question: How Quickly Does Capacity Become Cash? Habib Ur Rehman Sun, September 13, 2026 at 7:08 AM PDT 3 min read BABA AMZN September's debate over Chinese and American AI spending puts Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE: BABA ) and Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN ) on opposite sides of the same investment question. Both report strong demand for computing services. Shareholders still need that demand to justify the infrastructure bill. September 7 coverage of Jefferies' analysis highlighted differences in spending intensity. The companies' own results suggest a more useful test than choosing a winner from headline capital expenditures: distinguish operating progress from cash committed ahead of future growth.
