so-called Magnificent Seven continue to ride the AI boom, others
are losing momentum. Competition is heating up as OpenAI responds
to growing pressure from rivals, while DeepL is cutting jobs and
restructuring around automation and AI efficiency.

In Europe, regulators are easing AI requirements for the mechanical
engineering sector. The move is designed to help European industry
remain competitive in the global technology race.

Financial markets continue to rally despite geopolitical tensions
and weaker economic forecasts. Investors are increasingly debating
whether current stock valuations are sustainable, especially in
emerging-market ETFs that are now heavily concentrated in a few
semiconductor companies.

Germany’s corporate sector is also undergoing major change.

retail.
