New tariffs on Chinese EVs, Apple-OpenAI talks, Roaring Kitty's return: Morning Brief
On today's edition of The Morning Brief, Yahoo Finance's Seana Smith and Myles Udland cover everything from US-China economic relations to the latest moves in the artificial intelligence game. The market (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC) opened higher on Monday after all three major indexes closed last week in the green. Stocks are preparing for the Consumer Price Index's (CPI) inflation data expected on Wednesday as core CPI is projected to increase 3.6% year over year. In the latest move to develop domestic supply chains, President Biden is expected to announce new tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles this week, raising the rate to 102.5% from 27.5%, according to reports. SoftBank (SFTBY) posted a full-year profit in its Vision Fund for the first time since 2021, boosted by its investment in Arm (ARM) as the AI race heats up. SoftBank now has a 90% stake in Arm, accounting for almost half its entire portfolio. Apple (AAPL) is reportedly negotiating a deal with OpenAI to include ChatGPT on iPhones. ChatGPT is among the leading AI services, and as iPhone sales slumped last quarter, the partnership with OpenAI could be Apple's latest move to innovate the iPhone and increase sales. Lastly, GameStop (GME) shares are soaring following the return of "Roaring Kitty" to the social media platform X. Roaring Kitty played a critical role in GameStop's short squeeze back in 2021.

Meta, Apple are investing in tech that can decode your thoughts
AI can now decode your brain activity—a fancy way of saying mind reading. Big tech companies like Meta (META) are backing research into this field, including products that can decode thoughts without requiring surgery. The big question: what does our world look like if big tech companies can read your mind? Tech companies are building off neurotech advancements in the medical world. Meta is backing a team of neuroscientists whose research uncovered nonsurgical ways to detect brain activity and speech to interpret your thoughts. In 2022, Apple (AAPL) also filed a patent for AirPods that uses EEG technology to measure biosignals and electrical activity of a user's brain. Noninvasive mind reading can be revolutionary in medicine for patients - it can also be used by big tech for consumer-facing products that put privacy at risk. Neurorights advocates believe our thoughts are the last piece of data we have left to ourselves. That’s why they are now fighting for legislation that would safeguard our mental privacy while tech companies continue funding brain-scanning research. If you’re going to future-proof your portfolio, you need to know what’s NEXT in the business of neurotechnology. In this series, Yahoo Finance will feature stories that give a glimpse at the future, and show how companies are making big moves today that will matter tomorrow.
