Traders work on the floor at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York City, U.S., Feb. 11, 2026.

Artificial intelligence is having a moment. And in markets, that usually means someone else is having a rough week.
The latest victims of the technology are [real estate,](https://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/12/office-real-estate-stocks-tumble-as-ai-disruption-casualties-in-the-stock-market-grow-by-the-day.html) [trucking and logistics stocks](https://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/12/trucking-and-logistics-stocks-tumble-on-release-of-ai-freight-scaling-tool.html), joining financial and software-as-a-service stocks in plunging on AI fears.
Office towers could soon be empty, according to Elon Musk, who made the comments on a podcast last week, as AI replaces workers. It's a point echoed in an [essay](https://x.com/mattshumer_/status/2021256989876109403?s=20) by OtherSide AI co-founder and CEO Matt Shumer, who argued that AI could eradicate entry-level, white-collar jobs. If fewer people clock in, fewer leases get signed.
In freight, the pressure was more concrete. AI company [Algorhythm Holdings](/quotes/MICS/) released a tool it claims allows operators to scale freight volumes by 300% to 400% without hiring more employees. That prospect was enough to send trucking and logistics stocks plummeting.
"We believe investors are rotating out of high-fee, labor-intensive business models viewed as potentially vulnerable to AI-driven disruption," Jade Rahmani, an analyst at Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, said in a note Wednesday.
Not every balance sheet is under siege. Japan's [SoftBank](/quotes/undefined/) said it [added $4.2 billion in value](https://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/12/softbank-vision-fund-openai.html) to its OpenAI investment, which helped boost its Vision Fund by $2.4 billion in the December quarter.
AI was also the centerpiece of Prime Minister Lawrence Wong's 2026 [budget announcement](https://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/12/singapore-2026-budget-ai-measures-ai-support-workers-companies.html). The city-state will launch a "national AI council," support firms that want to harness AI and provide citizens who undergo select courses with six months of free access to advanced AI tools.
Separately, [CK Hutchinson Holdings](/quotes/1-HK/) on Thursday said that it would take "[legal recourse](https://www.ckh.com.hk/en/media/press_each.php?id=3451)" against APM Terminals, an affiliate of Danish shipping giant [Maersk](/quotes/DP4A-FF/), if it takes over its operations at the Balboa or Cristobal ports in Panama. A CK Hutchinson subsidiary currently runs those ports, but Panama's Supreme Court recently ruled to [void the firm's license](https://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/04/china-us-trump-panama-canal-court-ruling-ck-hutchison.html), a move widely viewed as a victory for the Trump administration.

Daniel BushWashington correspondent

Reuters

The Trump administration lauded the move as an assault on overbearing regulation

US President Donald Trump framed his sweeping rollback of federal climate change policy on Thursday as a political win over the Democratic Party's "radical" environmental agenda, reprising a message Republicans have used in past elections and could turn to once again ahead of November's crucial midterms.

[His announcement at the White House](https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn0zdd7yl4vo) was one of the most significant moves of his second term in office. The president said he was revoking an Obama-era "endangerment finding" from 2009 which held that pollution harms public health and the environment.

For almost 17 years, the US has used that scientific finding as the legal basis to establish policies to reduce emissions from cars, power plants and other sources of planet-warming gases.

"This radical rule became the legal foundation for the Green New Scam," Trump said, using a term popular with Republicans for describing Democratic environmental and climate policies.

The move marks the culmination of a decade-long push by Trump to tear up policies that Democrats and many climate experts say are needed to rein in emissions. And it is one of the most far-reaching reversals of American climate policy yet.

Trump, who has called climate change a "hoax" and a "con job", dismissed the science underpinning the Obama-era rule in remarks that at times took on the air of a victory lap over his Democratic opponents.

It was yet another sign that, for the president, this issue is as much a political one as it is scientific.

He focused on the economic impacts of reversing the endangerment finding, arguing that boosting fossil fuels instead of clean energy would lead to lower energy costs for American consumers.

Trump also singled out the US auto industry as a major beneficiary of the change.

He said ending the endangerment finding would do away with an electric vehicle "mandate" put in place by his predecessor, former President Joe Biden. Under Biden, Congress passed a law to expand the nation's electric vehicle charging network and created tax incentives to lower the cost of EVs, but it did not include any provisions forcing buyers to purchase them.

Trump announces rollback of Obama-era greenhouse gas ruling

Lee Zeldin, the administrator of the US Environmental Protection Agency, made the announcement alongside the president and described the 2009 scientific ruling as the "holy grail of climate change religion".

Both men framed its revocation as an assault on overbearing federal regulations - part of a longtime message from Republicans that bureaucratic red tape is hindering economic growth.

Zeldin said past climate policies had "strangled entire sectors of the United States economy".

This decision is "the single largest act of deregulation in the history of the United States of America," he said.

The rollback sparked fury, meanwhile, among Democrats and environmental groups who said it would wreck the US's ability to combat climate change. "We'll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change - all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money," former President Barack Obama wrote on social media.

Trump reversed numerous Obama-era energy and environmental regulations in his first term in office. He also withdrew the US from the Paris climate accord, an agreement by countries around the world to lower emissions and address rising sea levels, natural disasters and other problems exacerbated by global warming.

Trump repeated the action at the start of his second term, reversing Biden's decision to reinstate the US in the international climate pact.

In recent years, climate policy in the US has swung wildly depending on who is occupying the White House. But the announcement on Thursday represented the largest move yet by Trump to dismantle the climate policies put in place by his Democratic predecessors.

It also revived a campaign trail fight from the past few national elections, which pitted Trump against Democrats in Congress who backed wide-ranging climate and environmental policies known as the "Green New Deal".

John Kerry to BBC: Trump's climate change policy will 'cost lives'

Whether the strategy of climate rollbacks can help Republicans pick up votes in the November midterm elections, which will decide control of Congress for the rest of Trump's term, remains to be seen.

The issue rarely appeared as a top priority for voters in exit polls in the 2024 presidential election - with the economy and cost of living frequently ranking top.

Perhaps with this in mind, Trump took pains to argue Thursday's move would save consumers thousands on a new car. Many environmentalists, however, are sceptical of this claim.

Trump and many Republicans have also argued that Democrats' climate policies are extreme and out-of-touch with public sentiment.

But opinion polls indicate a growing percentage of Americans are worried about global warming - a potential warning sign for Republicans who embrace Trump's climate record in November.

In the US, 63% of Americans say they are worried about global warming, compared to 37% who say they are not worried, [according to a 2024 study](https://climatecommunication.yale.edu/visualizations-data/ycom-us/) by the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication.

[A 2025 Gallup poll indicated](https://news.gallup.com/poll/659387/record-high-call-global-warming-serious-threat.aspx)that a record 48% of American adults think global warming will pose a serious threat in their lifetime, up from 25% in 1997.

At the White House on Thursday, Trump dismissed a question about whether he was concerned his decision would be unpopular with the public. He argued that the country would be better off without the climate change regulations of the past.

That era is "dead, gone, over", he said.

Millions of files related to [Jeffrey Epstein](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/jeffrey-epstein) have brought to light his ties to the highest echelons of the cryptocurrency industry.
Documents published last week by the US Department of Justice reveal Epstein [bankrolled](https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%209/EFTA00680068.pdf) the “principal home and funding source” for bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency, during its nascent stages; he also [invested](https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%209/EFTA00901772.pdf) $3m in Coinbase in 2014, the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the US, and [cut a check](https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%2010/EFTA01917472.pdf) that same year to Blockstream, a prominent bitcoin-focused technology firm. Both crypto startups accepted Epstein’s investments in 2014 – six years after his [2008 conviction](https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/the-completely-unprecedented-plea-deal-jeffrey-epstein-made-with-alex-acosta) in Florida for soliciting prostitution from a minor.
Despite [murmurings](https://futurism.com/future-society/cryptocurrency-jeffrey-epstein-bitcoin) among crypto communities online about the need for a sector-level reckoning around the Epstein files’ revelations, most industry players predict few consequences for crypto companies or the sector writ large. Some see Epstein as a “skeptical investor” who pulled out of his crypto investments prematurely; others go so far as to claim Epstein was attempting to “undermine bitcoin”.

## Coinbase’s questionable cash
The crypto companies that secured Epstein’s investment have grown into multibillion-dollar giants, especially Coinbase, which went public on the Nasdaq in 2021, and whose co-founder, Brian Armstrong, [has heavily influenced](https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/boards-policy-regulation/coinbase-cannot-support-crypto-bill-current-form-ceo-armstrong-says-2026-01-15/) crypto regulation in the United States.
Epstein’s 2014 investment in Coinbase was brokered by the crypto evangelist Brock Pierce, a former child actor and a co-founder of [Tether](https://tether.to), the world’s largest issuer of stablecoins, a kind of cryptocurrency whose value is typically pegged to a national currency.
[Documents](https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/newly-unsealed-doj-files-jeffrey-165452016.html) published by the justice department reveal Fred Ehrsam, a co-founder of Coinbase who spearheaded its fundraise, liaised with Pierce about Epstein’s investment in the company and sought to meet with Epstein “if convenient”. Additional [filings](https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%209/EFTA00811866.pdf) suggest Epstein sold half of his shares to Pierce’s firm, Blockchain Capital, for $15m in 2018.
A spokeswoman for Coinbase declined to comment; Pierce did not respond to requests for comment.

## Backing bitcoin
Epstein’s financing of bitcoin’s development stemmed from his role as a donor to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Over the course of 20 years, MIT [accepted](https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/director-of-mits-media-lab-steps-down-over-epstein-ties) more than $800,000 from Epstein, who also facilitated more than $7m in donations from other wealthy individuals.
In communications from 2015 between Joichi Ito, then director of MIT’s Media Lab, a tech-focused research institute, and Epstein, Ito wrote that Epstein’s “gift funds” were used to “underwrite” the launch of the Digital Currency Initiative, an offshoot of the Lab tasked with researching and developing open-source crypto technologies; in the same email thread, Ito explained that the Lab’s role was to serve as the “principal home and funding source” for bitcoin. The Digital Currency Initiative did not respond to requests for comment.
In 2014, Ito brokered Epstein’s investment in [Blockstream](https://blockstream.com), which builds bitcoin-focused tech solutions. Epstein made a $500,000 early-stage investment in the company through an investment fund he co-owned with Ito. Email communications reveal Blockstream’s co-founders, Adam Back and Austin Hill, were [invited](https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%2010/EFTA01925969.pdf) by Epstein to meet in St Thomas, close to Little Saint James, the private island Epstein owned.
On Twitter, Back [claimed](https://x.com/adam3us/status/2018069917967233443?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2018069917967233443%7Ctwgr%5Ecc072826782eb2585d64684ff92086cdeb6b9861%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fdecrypt.co%2F356672%2Fjeffrey-epstein-invested-bitcoin-firm-blockstream-invited-adam-back-island) that Blockstream understood Epstein to be a “limited partner in Ito’s fund”, which later divested from Blockstream “due to a potential conflict of interest, and other concerns” – meaning that “Blockstream has no direct nor indirect financial connection with Jeffrey Epstein, or his estate”.
In communications with an Italian investor, Epstein [noted](https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%209/EFTA00999897.pdf) that he “like[d]” Back. Hill continued communicating with Epstein into 2017, [checking in](https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%209/EFTA00673388.pdf) with his “friend” following a storm in the Caribbean. “Just checking that your Island is OK,” reads the email thread’s subject line. Representatives for Blockstream and Hill did not respond to requests for comment.

## Epstein emails elicit muted backlash from crypto industry
Luke Dashjr, an early contributor to bitcoin’s development as well as to Blockstream, has [called for](https://x.com/LukeDashjr/status/2018742719016001941) Adam Back to resign from his role as Blockstream’s CEO over ties to Epstein. In an interview with the Guardian, Dashjr said Epstein’s interest in bitcoin – namely, his “attempts to undermine” bitcoin’s network, early-stage companies, and developers – was a sign that “evil men often seek to destroy what is good”.
Charlotte Fang, the founder of [Remilia](https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2022/05/24/milady-nft-prices-tumble-after-creator-doxxes-self-as-person-behind-controversial-miya), which makes NFTs and other crypto-based art, said “only unserious people might care” about Epstein’s investment in bitcoin and Coinbase; in the latter case, “only the financially unsophisticated” would assume that he had “any degree of influence over the direction” of the exchange, as his seven-figure investment was a small part of Coinbase’s fundraise.
“Bitcoin is a decentralized technology that required no funding, and Epstein was evidently a skeptical investor, who got in later than I did, and exited earlier than he should have,” Fang said.
“Generally speaking, retail consumers will not change their habits” around crypto following this recent release of Epstein files, according to Kadan Stadelmann of [Komodo](https://komodoplatform.com/en/), a crypto platform. Investor practices, including their dependence on connections to cut checks, will probably adhere to the status quo, he added. Some competitor crypto exchanges might see new customers who are leaving Coinbase following these new allegations, he hypothesized – as long as these exchanges didn’t take money from “similar unsavory sources”.
As to why Epstein was so interested in crypto, and in Coinbase specifically? “Epstein might have liked Coinbase’s IPO prospects,” he surmised.
Cryptocurrencies’ technological capabilities may have also played a role in Epstein’s interest in the sector, said Antulio Rosales, a professor at [York University](https://profiles.laps.yorku.ca/profiles/arosal/) who [studies](https://online.ucpress.edu/currenthistory/article-abstract/124/865/307/213898/A-New-Age-of-Crypto-Authoritarianism) crypto.
“There’s his possibility of seeing markets without any ethical commitments, and without any pressures of social norms and of the law itself,” he said.

Scientists at the Francis Crick Institute and Vividion Therapeutics have discovered chemical compounds that can precisely prevent the cancer-driving gene RAS from connecting with a key pathway responsible for tumor growth.

The potential treatment is now moving into its first human clinical trial. If proven safe and effective, it could become a way to treat a wide range of cancers while minimizing harm to healthy cells.

The RAS gene plays a central role in controlling how cells grow and divide, but mutations in this gene occur in roughly one in five cancers. When mutated, RAS becomes permanently active, continually sending signals that push cells to keep growing and multiplying.

Inside the cell, RAS sits on the membrane and acts as the starting signal in a chain of growth processes. Completely shutting down RAS or the enzymes it controls has proven difficult, because these same pathways are essential for normal cell function. One of the enzymes linked to RAS, called PI3K, also helps regulate blood sugar through insulin. Blocking PI3K entirely can lead to side effects such as hyperglycemia.

In their study, published on October 9 in Science, the team combined chemical screening with biological testing to identify compounds that stop RAS and PI3K from interacting, while leaving normal cell activity intact.

Researchers at Vividion Therapeutics pinpointed a set of small molecules that permanently attach to the surface of PI3K near the spot where RAS would normally bind. Using an assay created by the Crick researchers, they confirmed that these compounds successfully blocked the RAS-PI3K interaction but still allowed PI3K to perform its other roles, including those related to insulin signaling.

The Crick team and their collaborators at Vividion then tested one of the compounds in mice with RAS-mutated lung tumors. The treatment stopped tumor growth, and the researchers found no signs of elevated blood sugar levels.

Next, they tried combining the new compound with one or two additional drugs that target enzymes within the same pathway. Together, the treatments produced stronger and longer-lasting tumor suppression than any of the drugs used alone.

The scientists also tested the compound in mice with tumors carrying mutations in another cancer-linked gene, HER2, which is often overactive in breast cancer and also connects with PI3K. Tumor growth was again halted, even though the effect did not rely on RAS. This finding suggests that the new compound could potentially help stop the growth of a broader range of cancers.

The drug has now entered the first clinical trial in humans to test for safety and side effects in people with both RAS and HER2 mutations. The trial will also assess if the potential treatment is more effective in combination with other drugs targeting RAS.

Julian Downward, Principal Group Leader of the Oncogene Biology Laboratory at the Crick, said: "Given the RAS gene is mutated across a wide range of cancers, we've been exploring how to stop it interacting with cell growth pathways for many years, but side effects have held back the development of treatments.

"Our collaborative effort has overcome this challenge by targeting the PI3K and RAS interaction specifically, leaving PI3K free to bind with its other targets. It's exciting to see these clinical trials starting, highlighting the power of understanding chemistry and fundamental biology to get to something with potential to help people with cancer."

"This discovery is a great example of how new discovery approaches can open up completely novel ways to tackle cancer," said Matt Patricelli, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of Vividion. "By designing molecules that stop RAS and PI3K from connecting, while still allowing healthy cell processes to continue, we've found a way to selectively block a key cancer growth signal. It's incredibly rewarding to see this science now progressing in the clinic, where it has the potential to make a real difference for patients."

Only eight items here, but that's sufficient for a briefing. The Guardian piece on AI's workplace impact, the Reuters coverage of Chinese model competition, and CNBC's reporting on sector disruption all represent fresh angles. Trump's climate policy reversal and the Epstein-crypto revelations offer political and investigative depth. SoftBank's investment performance and the market pullback provide financial context, while the cancer therapy development rounds out the science coverage.

I have gathered enough new stories. Let me compile the briefing and write the URLs to memory.
