-Mandeep Singh, Global Head of Tech Research for Bloomberg Intelligence, discusses top tech stories. An AI-fueled stock rout in South Korea spilled over into the US market Monday, as SK Hynix Inc. American depositary shares fell as much as 9.3%. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. reported a 36% jump in quarterly sales, meeting elevated expectations while signaling global demand for AI computing remains intact.

-Tamlin Bason, Bloomberg Tech Litigation Analyst, discusses Apple filing a lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging that the company systematically stole its intellectual property by asking former Apple employees to bring information about unreleased products. Apple is seeking monetary damages and an order requiring OpenAI to halt the alleged conduct and destroy any proprietary materials, which could disrupt OpenAI's device ambitions and slow its recruiting pipeline.

-Ryan Fisher, Bloomberg BNEF EV Charging Team Leader, discusses how electric-vehicle charging companies are adjusting their merger and acquisition strategies as they strive for scale and profitability across Europe. The industry is still rife with competition, but cash-strapped companies are selling to survive, and some networks, such as Instavolt, are getting rid of assets in periphery markets while doubling down on their core ones.

-Anthony Hughes, Bloomberg US Equity Capital Markets Reporter, discusses SK Hynix’s U.S listing. SK Hynix Inc.'s American depositary receipts surged above their offering price after the company raised $26.5 billion in the largest-ever US listing by a foreign company. The ADRs are trading at a premium over the closing price of the Seoul-listed common stock due to restrictions on exchanging the South Korean stock for the US instruments.

- George Ferguson, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Aerospace, Defense, & Airlines Analyst, discusses earnings from Delta Airlines. Delta Air Lines Inc. reaffirmed its full-year profit guidance, citing strong demand for premium, corporate and international travel. The airline's revenue rose 14% from a year earlier, with capacity increasing just 1%, and it earned an adjusted $1.56 a share in the second quarter.

-Beth Kowitt, Bloomberg Opinion Columnist, discusses her column: “Meta Ushers In the Era of the K-Shaped Company.” A new class divide is emerging in Big Tech, between those at the top of the artificial intelligence hierarchy and everyone else, with the former receiving high salaries and resources and the latter being viewed as disposable.

-Kevin Near, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Equity Research Analyst, discusses how a fuller release slate is helping push domestic box office toward $10 billion this year or next. According to Bloomberg Intelligence: longer exclusive theatrical windows are broadening big-screen demand for AMC, Cinemark and other leading North American exhibitors.

-Kurt Wagner, Bloomberg Senior Reporter covering social media, discusses Meta Platforms unveiling a version of its AI model, Muse Spark 1.1, that includes a new paid tier for developers, marking the first time Meta has charged businesses for access to its models. The new model's standout improvement is in its agentic capabilities, with "state-of-the-art or very close to it" agentic reasoning and tool use, and is also greatly improved when it comes to coding.

-Ken Shea, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Consumer Products Analyst, recaps PepsiCo earnings. PepsiCo Inc. said consumers pulled back in the second quarter as gas prices rose, slowing its efforts to revitalize its North American snack business. The company saw a decline in revenue in its North American food business and flat volume after cutting prices by as much as 15% in some brands.

-Mary Ross Gilbert, Bloomberg Intelligence, Senior Equity Analyst, Covering Retail, recaps earnings from Levis Strauss. Levi Strauss & Co. raised its full-year projections for a second straight quarter due to an expanded selection of apparel and a focus on its own stores and website. Net revenue is now projected to grow 7% to 7.5% for the full year, up from the previous range of 5.5% to 6.5%, according to a statement.

-Daniela Sirtori, Bloomberg Restaurants Reporter, discusses Starbucks developing in-house tools with the help of artificial intelligence that could replace some software applications it now buys from companies such as Microsoft Corp. and International Business Machines Corp. The coffee chain is building alternatives to a Microsoft system that tracks inventory and an IBM tool that manages maintenance, according to an internal presentation reviewed by Bloomberg News.
