China AI Chip Stock Surges Nearly 200% in Shanghai Debut Shanghai Enflame Technology shares surged nearly 200% in their Shanghai debut on Friday, as investors rushed to buy one of China’s leading domestic AI-chip makers amid Beijing’s efforts to reduce reliance on Nvidia and other U.S. semiconductor suppliers. The Tencent-backed company opened at 410 yuan, far above its IPO price of 142.18 yuan, and climbed as high as 475 yuan before settling around 430 yuan. The rally valued Enflame at roughly 185 billion yuan ($27.6 billion)—about three times its IPO valuation. Enflame raised 6.12 billion yuan ($912 million) through its IPO. Strong investor demand was evident, with online orders exceeding 6,000 times the shares available and more than 7 million investor accounts participating. Enflame is considered one of China’s major domestic GPU makers and is benefiting from Beijing’s push for greater self-reliance in AI hardware. Tencent remains its largest shareholder with a 17.95% stake and was also its biggest customer in 2025, contributing nearly 84% of revenue. Despite rapid growth, the company remains unprofitable. Enflame reported a 1.16 billion yuan net loss in 2025, while revenue increased 37% to 990.2 million yuan.
Oracle is set to report its Fiscal Q1 2027 earnings after the market close, with investors watching closely to see whether its AI-driven cloud growth can keep up with soaring capital costs.
Iran-U.S. Conflict Escalates as Oil Prices Approach $100
Iran has sharply escalated its confrontation with the United States, launching ballistic missiles at a U.S. military base in Jordan and attacking ships in and around the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it carried out a “fierce” missile attack on a U.S. base near Al Azraq in eastern Jordan. Jordan’s armed forces said 18 of the 20 ballistic missiles launched toward the country were intercepted, while the remaining two landed in unpopulated areas. No casualties were reported.
The IRGC also claimed it attacked 10 vessels, including two U.S. ships and eight oil tankers, further expanding the conflict around the Gulf.
The attacks came after the U.S. military said it had destroyed five Iranian oil tankers following two attempted Iranian missile strikes against a U.S. Navy warship. U.S. Central Command said the crews were ordered to abandon the vessels before they were struck and rendered inoperable.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned Tehran that Washington would continue targeting Iranian oil tankers in response to attacks on U.S. warships.
Meanwhile, Iran-backed Houthi forces also attacked energy and economic facilities in southern Saudi Arabia, reportedly injuring more than 70 people.
The latest escalation has increased concerns over disruptions to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical route for global oil supplies.
As investors assess the risk of further supply disruptions, oil prices climbed toward $100 a barrel on Wednesday.#Iran #USA #IranWar #MiddleEastConflict #MiddleEastCrisis #OilPrices #CrudeOil #BrentCrude #OilMarket #StraitOfHormuz #GlobalOil #EnergyCrisis #Geopolitics #USMilitary #IranUSConflict #SaudiArabia #Houthi #GlobalMarkets #StockMarket #Forex #Trading #Investing #MarketNews #BreakingNews #WorldNews #OilNews #EconomicNews #FinancialNews #InvestingNews

📊 Strong U.S. jobs data showed 162,000 new jobs were added in August, far above expectations of 55,000. The strong labor market, combined with persistent inflation, has increased expectations that the Fed could tighten monetary policy.

Meanwhile, Qualcomm gained 3.2% following its AI data-center partnership with Amazon, while the healthcare sector dropped sharply, led by major declines in Novartis and Amgen.
📌 Market focus: Inflation data, Fed policy, Middle East tensions and oil prices.
The latest gains came after Iran warned that oil and gas infrastructure across the Gulf could become targets in retaliation for attacks on its assets.
The Strait of Hormuz remains the biggest concern for global oil markets, as any disruption to tanker traffic through the key shipping route could put further upward pressure on crude prices.
📈 Brent gained around 8% last week, while WTI climbed nearly 10%.
⚠️ Key Market Risk: Further escalation between the U.S. and Iran could push oil prices significantly higher.
Japan’s economy expanded faster than initially estimated in the second quarter, showing that the recovery maintained some momentum despite weak domestic demand and business investment.
