Nvidia is poised to overtake Apple as the world's second-most valuable company, benefitting from the growing adoption of AI applications and the reliance on its high-end chips. Nvidia's market value has nearly tripled over the past year to $2.68 trillion, while Apple has slipped to the No. 2 spot behind Microsoft due to weaker iPhone demand and tough competition in China.

A Russian court has eased restrictions on UniCredit in a lawsuit over an abandoned gas project, allowing the Italian lender to offer Russian sovereign bond holdings as collateral instead of seized assets and property. Initially, a St Petersburg court ruled in mid-May for the seizure of UniCredit's assets, but UniCredit's Russian arm reached an agreement with the plaintiff to pledge Russian OFZ treasury bonds worth 50 billion roubles as collateral. This move softens the restrictions while providing a future enforcement possibility. UniCredit was involved in a terminated project with Linde, resulting in a 2 billion euro payment dispute with RusChemAlliance.
