  "account": "On Monday, Wall Street stocks declined as tech shares faced weakness following concerns raised by AI executives about the need to slow down advances in artificial intelligence. Nvidia, AMD, and Core Weave led the decline in technology stocks, contributing to the overall drop in Wall Street indices. However, the losses eased as crude oil prices and US bond yields moderated later in the day. Earlier, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called for a coordinated slowdown in AI development to better understand the risks, garnering support from other industry leaders. This statement drew criticism from President Donald Trump, who dismissed fears of an AI-induced human extinction as a hoax and emphasized the need for the US to win a technological race against China. Despite the initial drop in tech stocks, the AI sector's significance to both the economy and the stock market, as well as its capital expenditure boom, prompted investors to reassess the sector's growth trajectory. Meanwhile, oil prices surged due to Saudi Arabia closing a key pipeline in the Middle East war, raising concerns about sustained inflation and prompting higher interest rates from the US Federal Reserve. Brent oil prices rose to around US$105.68 a barrel, slightly below the earlier US$109 mark. The partial calming in oil markets was attributed to some geopolitical optimism following President Trump's suggestion that Iran might reach an agreement quickly and the US being open to talks. The 10-year US Treasury note briefly surpassed the 5% mark but later retreated. Analysts expect the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates, given persistent inflation above the central bank's 2% target. This would be a significant move, as market consensus sees a 92% probability of a rate hike, with an assumed 50 basis points of tightening by the end of the year, according to Forex.com analyst Fawad Razaqzada.",
