On September 10th, JPMorgan upgraded Meta to "Overweight" on Thursday, the latest example of improving market sentiment towards Facebooks parent companys AI strategy.

The requests will focus on the polymer resin PET (widely used in packaging) and the chemicals epoxy resin and fiberglass. The EU currently has more than 150 trade measures in place, most of which impose tariffs on narrowly defined products to combat dumping or unfair subsidies, but only one set of safeguards targets ferroalloys, with a separate system of import restrictions on steel.September 10th - Polymarket has hired its first Chief Financial Officer.
