  • Houthi Forces: Significant and Precise Strikes on Saudi Air Base

    On September 14, the Houthi forces issued a statement announcing that the Yemeni armed forces conducted a large-scale military operation against Saudi Arabia's Khamis Mushait airbase and its infrastructure. We utilized dozens of ballistic missiles and drones to target military facilities and infrastructure at the airbase, including hangars, radar systems, runways, and ammunition depots, with precision and direct impact. As long as Saudi Arabia continues its unjust aggression against our people, the armed forces will persist in executing significant military operations on Saudi territory. Any new acts of aggression will be met with larger and more severe actions. We will continue to maintain a strategy of besieging the besieger and escalating in response to escalation until the aggression ceases and the blockade on our country is lifted.

    Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei stated at a weekly press conference that Saudi Arabia has requested a 'temporary' postponement of the meeting between Gulf countries and Iran regarding the Strait of Hormuz. Saudi Arabia attributed the request to the developments in Yemen, which it claims is a distraction from the root causes of the crisis. The agreement reached between Iran and Oman concerning the Strait is a bilateral agreement between the two coastal nations. Iran hopes that regional countries can 'promote regional security through dialogue and limit the influence of destructive external actors.'

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman quickly responded that he would adopt Amodei's suggestion to 'grant independent assessment agencies access similar to that of employees.'

  • HSBC No Longer Believes the Fed Will Stand Pat This Year, Now Predicts Two Rate Hikes

    HSBC expects the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates by 0.25 percentage points in September and December, changing its previous assessment that rates would remain unchanged. Ryan Wang, HSBC's U.S. economist, stated in a report that following the August employment report and consumer price index (CPI) data, both of which exceeded HSBC's expectations, the bank now anticipates that the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) will vote to support a 25 basis point rate hike at its meeting on September 15-16. This would raise the federal funds target rate range to 3.75%-4%. "We believe the new dot plot from the FOMC may indicate a median forecast of 4.125% by the end of 2026, suggesting that (at least many policymakers) are inclined to implement consecutive 25 basis point hikes at the meetings on October 27-28 and December 8-9," Wang added. Given the strong momentum of U.S. economic growth, HSBC expects that after rate hikes this year, there will not be a swift shift to rate cuts. (Bloomberg)
