ANZ Shares Slip After Dividend Date as First Nations Solar Deal Moves Ahead

ANZ Shares Slip After Dividend Date as First Nations Solar Deal Moves Ahead

ANZ Group Holdings Limited has confirmed it’s among the backers of the Jinbi Solar Project, stepping in as the First Nations-led renewables venture reached financial close — a key milestone for construction in Western Australia’s Pilbara. The announcement came as ANZ shares slipped on Monday, trading ex-dividend for the interim payout. Financial close locks in critical funding, contracts, approvals, and consents—final, with no strings attached. For ANZ, this deal lands the bank squarely in the spotlight on a major Indigenous-led infrastructure project. Australia’s big banks are facing pressure: rate swings, choppy markets, and a sluggish pace in household lending are all in play.

Why Micron Stock Is Jumping Again: Samsung Strike Risk, AI Memory Shortage and a $1,000 Target

Why Micron Stock Is Jumping Again: Samsung Strike Risk, AI Memory Shortage and a $1,000 Target

Micron Technology jumped 6.5% to finish at $795.33 on Monday, boosted by a fresh price target hike from Deutsche Bank, which now sees the stock at $1,000, up from its previous $550 call. The upgrade piled onto gains that had already been building amid concerns about potential supply hiccups over at Samsung Electronics. Timing is crucial now, as Samsung’s labor dispute edges toward resolution. The company and its union remain locked in government-brokered talks before a strike set for May 21. The standoff? It’s about bonus compensation tied to operating profit—coming just as AI-fueled hardware demand is pressuring memory supplies.

Macquarie Group Stock: One Catch Behind the A$4.85 Billion Profit Beat

Macquarie Group Stock: One Catch Behind the A$4.85 Billion Profit Beat

Macquarie Group Ltd posted a A$4.85 billion full-year profit, topping forecasts—Jefferies labeled the performance “strong,” yet Morningstar’s Nathan Zaia flagged the stock as overpriced. Shares last traded at A$239.34, inching up 0.05% after momentum from last week’s record faded. The focus shifts to whether Australia’s biggest listed investment bank can sustain that earnings boost, following a year shaped by swings in energy markets, clients hedging, and divestments. What’s notable: the same result reveals Macquarie pushing further into retail banking—less volatile, more dependent on technology, pricing muscle, and scale.

Binance Says AI Blocked $10.5 Billion in Crypto Fraud as Scams Go Industrial

Binance says its AI-driven security tools stopped $10.53 billion in attempted crypto fraud over the past 15 months, underscoring how both exchanges and fraudsters are ramping up their tech. According to the company, it caught 22.9 million scam and phishing incidents just in the first quarter. Phishing—meaning bogus messages or sites aimed at stealing passwords or money—remains a major tactic. It’s not just about how big the number is. Crypto fraud has evolved—moving beyond giveaway scams and spammy links, now leveraging deepfake videos, synthetic voices, bogus help desks, and bots capable of generating malware or baiting targets via chat.

Netflix’s ‘Legends’ Review Buzz Puts Steve Coogan’s True-Crime Thriller in the Spotlight

Netflix’s “Legends” kicked off its initial week after launch with a renewed marketing drive and mostly upbeat first reactions, turning attention to Steve Coogan’s rare straight crime role just days after all six episodes dropped. According to the streamer, the show centers on regular British Customs agents who go undercover against drug rings in 1990s Britain. The timing is notable: “Legends” hands Netflix a tight, six-episode British true-crime entry—this time featuring a real state operation instead of the usual fictional police work, plus a recognizable lead. The streamer is pushing creator Neil Forsyth’s name out front, aiming to cast the series as something bigger than a standard drug-gang drama.

CSL Limited Share Price Plunge: Why a $5 Billion Writedown Hammered the ASX Biotech Giant

CSL Limited shares tumbled 16% on Monday, closing at A$100.75—after dipping under A$100 intraday, a level not seen in nearly ten years. The Australian blood-products and vaccine manufacturer slashed its forecast for fiscal 2026 and warned of around US$5 billion in fresh non-cash, pre-tax impairments. These writedowns hit asset values but don’t drain cash right away. This wasn’t just a regular earnings update. Interim Chief Executive Gordon Naylor delivered his 90-day review since stepping in back in February, spotlighting Vifor—the business CSL acquired for US$11.7 billion in 2022—right back in the thick of the company’s issues.

Air France-KLM Name Could Disappear as SAS Deal Pushes ‘Blue Group’ Rebrand Talk

Air France-KLM Name Could Disappear as SAS Deal Pushes ‘Blue Group’ Rebrand Talk

Air France-KLM hasn’t made a call yet on whether to rebrand the group, following Dutch media speculation that its bid for control of SAS might push the Franco-Dutch airline toward a more neutral label like “The Blue Group.” The company described group name talks as “only logical,” given plans to expand its portfolio of brands, in comments to AeroTime. NL Times, referencing De Telegraaf, noted the Air France-KLM name could vanish from the holding’s identity. Timing is key here: SAS is on track to shift from being a partner to a potential subsidiary. Air France-KLM is set to ramp up its ownership in SAS, eyeing a jump to 60.5% from its current 19.9% stake by purchasing shares from Castlelake and

Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro Plan Just Got Clearer: Split Launch, Satellite 5G And A Camera Bet

Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro Plan Just Got Clearer: Split Launch, Satellite 5G And A Camera Bet

Apple is gearing up for a staggered iPhone release: the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and a foldable iPhone are slated to arrive in September, while the standard iPhone 18 and the iPhone 18e won’t debut until spring 2027. If that timing holds, this fall’s event will lean harder into high-end models than Apple typically does in September. Timing is key here. With WWDC just weeks away, Apple is about to outline the next iPhone’s software—and in just a few months, a major leadership shift hits. Tim Cook moves to executive chairman, John Ternus steps in as CEO on Sept. 1, the company confirmed. If the iPhone does launch in September, it lands right in Ternus’s lap as

India Rejects Sanctioned Russian LNG, Stranding Tanker as Energy Crunch Deepens

India Rejects Sanctioned Russian LNG, Stranding Tanker as Energy Crunch Deepens

India has turned down Russia’s attempt to supply liquefied natural gas from projects hit by U.S. sanctions, two people directly involved told Reuters. With the cargo bound for India now lacking a destination, negotiations are still ongoing for shipments New Delhi could accept without violating sanctions. LNG—short for liquefied natural gas—is simply natural gas cooled to liquid for shipping by sea. This decision carries real weight as India looks to maintain fuel supplies. Middle East turmoil has driven energy prices higher and put pressure on the rupee. The country, which ranks third globally in oil imports and consumption, sources over 90% of its crude from other nations and imports about half its natural gas.

Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon is betting the chipmaker’s future on AI wearables, saying on Fortune’s Titans and Disruptors of Industry podcast that the company is collaborating with OpenAI, Meta Platforms, and, in his words, “pretty much all” of the top AI names to develop personal devices that could move some computing workloads off smartphones. Benzinga covered the remarks, as Qualcomm pushes further into the scramble to provide chips powering AI agent-driven hardware—devices designed to handle user tasks via advanced software. Timing’s key here. Qualcomm, still seen by most investors as a phone processor and wireless chip play, is feeling the pressure as smartphones reach maturity. Wall Street wants to see a convincing move into AI hardware. Qualcomm shares jumped about

UK travelers will see an uptick in direct flights to Singapore Changi, a key stop for connections throughout Asia and Australia.
