Morningstar says Japan bond ETFs have recorded a record $1.5 billion in year-to-date net inflows, three times the total for all of 2025.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent said he expects other countries will take similar actions to isolate Iran.

Tencent said a recent report that its Interactive Entertainment Group (IEG) is reorganizing its AI games unit is inaccurate and that claims of a new department were a misreading. The report had said IEG would merge ARC Lab under IEG CROS (Tencent Games tech platform) with the game AI engine team and expand the unit to 400–500 staff. Tencent said the game-technology line already houses a game AI engine team and has been recruiting AI specialists externally; the team focuses on AI-driven efficiency across game development and operations and on gameplay innovation, providing reusable technical capabilities and solutions.
