The report stated that during the talks, the UAE strongly opposed the US-Iran memorandum of understanding, arguing that while the agreement might buy Iran time to improve its economic situation, it offered no substantial concessions. The two sides also discussed coordinating measures against Iran within international organizations, but agreed that any action would require prior consultation with the Trump administration. The report cited Western diplomatic sources as saying that the UAEs stance on Iran is tougher than some Gulf states, and that its ability to export energy through alternative routes strengthens its shared interests with Israel in dealing with the Iranian issue.On July 29th, according to The Information, Google (GOOG.O) disclosed last week that it has agreed to assume up to $44 billion in third-party data center lease payments in the event of tenant defaults. This figure is an increase from $6.5 billion at the end of September, reflecting Googles efforts to provide its AI chip alternatives to Nvidia to companies like Anthropic. It is understood that Google has assumed these commitments, known as "backup guarantees," to scale its TPU sales. Two sources revealed that Google assumed these commitments based on the consideration that the revenue generated from TPU sales would exceed the financial obligations arising from guaranteeing data center leases to accommodate these chips. One source stated that company executives were confident this financial calculation was favorable to Alphabet. The report states that Alphabet has already provided lease guarantees for approximately 2.4 gigawatts of capacity across about ten projects. These projects are currently incomplete, meaning Alphabets guarantees have not yet taken effect.As of the 2:30 closing bell, the main Shanghai gold futures contract fell 0.73% to 882 yuan/gram, the main Shanghai silver futures contract fell 1.43% to 14,016 yuan/kilogram, and the main SC crude oil futures contract fell 2.48% to 527 yuan/barrel.
