Apple loses $5.7 billion patent case over the vibrations built into millions of iPhones

Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) has lost a $5.7 billion patent case tied to the vibration hardware used inside millions of iPhones and Apple Watches. A federal jury in San Diego ruled Friday that Apple infringed parts of two patents owned by Taction Technology.  The controversy involves tactile technology that generates physical feedback upon touch on the controls of a device. The compensation for damages was awarded following a long period of litigation between the two companies.  The litigation was initiated by Taction against Apple in 2021 at the United States District Court for the Southern District of California.  The company claimed that the defendant earned profits from its patented technologies without its consent. The dismissal of the case was achieved by Apple in 2023, but this victory did not hold. The matter was revived by the Federal Circuit.  Taction wins its case as jurors rule against Apples Taptic Engine  This was related to two U.S. patents that were patent numbers 10,659,885 and 10,820,117. This was because both patents involved tactile transducers. The tactile transducer is a small system that converts electrical signals into controlled movement, which is sensed physically.

Fed proposed stablecoin rule could trigger a 48-hour liquidation run

The Federal Reserves proposed rules for the payment stablecoin issuers it supervises include a crisis clock measured in hours. An issuer whose reserves fall below the value of its outstanding tokens would have 24 hours to notify the Fed and submit a plan to restore full backing.  Unless it closes the gap or the Fed directs it to proceed with that plan, the issuer must begin liquidating reserves and redeeming tokens by 5 p.m. on the next business day. The Fed says that window comes to less than 48 hours in many cases.  The 392-page proposal also lets the issuer keep minting new tokens during that rescue window, and the Fed ties that choice to the public nature of blockchains. An abrupt halt in issuance would be visible on-chain and could tip holders off to the problem, speeding up the very run the rules exist to contain.  Comments are open for 60 days once the proposal appears in the Federal Register.  The clock starts at 5 p.m.  The proposal requires reserve assets to equal or exceed outstanding tokens at all times. Issuers must formally record the fair value of those reserves at least once a day at 5 p.m. in the time zone of their

Oil crashes back to $92 as U.S.-Iran diplomacy wipes out nearly 8% in a week

Oil took another beating Friday as talks between Iran and the United States returned to the markets radar. West Texas Intermediate crude sank 2.3% to $92.41 a barrel, pushing its weekly loss to 7.9%.  Brent crude also fell 2.1% to $104.32, though the global benchmark finished the full week roughly flat. Iran has put a new offer on the table. Tehran said it could reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days if Washington carries out the terms of an interim peace agreement reached in June.

Nike Stock: 12-Year Low, Revenue Remains $5B Below Its 2024 Peak

Nike generated $46.4 billion in fiscal 2026 revenue, roughly $5 billion below the $51.4 billion it produced at its fiscal 2024 peak.  That is a decline of almost 10%, even though revenue was essentially flat versus fiscal 2025.  Nikes official fiscal 2026 results show a company that has stabilized, but not fully recovered. Wholesale revenue rose 6% to $27.5 billion, while Nike Direct fell 6% to $17.7 billion and digital sales dropped 12%.  Nike Is Rebuilding Its Distribution Strategy  The shift in sales mix is one of the biggest parts of Nikes turnaround.  The company spent years prioritizing direct-to-consumer sales through its own apps and stores. Under CEO Elliott Hill, it is rebuilding wholesale relationships and putting more emphasis back on retail partners.  That is starting to show in the numbers. Wholesale improved, while direct and digital sales remained weak.  Our earlier Nike earnings coverage showed how investors have increasingly focused on weaker digital demand and China even when headline earnings beat expectations.  Nike revenue has stabilized but remains almost 10% below its 2024 peak.China Is Still the Main Weak Spot  Greater China remains one of Nikes biggest problems.  Fourth-quarter sales in the region fell 17%, while management has been working to reduce discounting and regain control of the brand.  The
