"Nobody is building data centers at SpaceX's pace. Google hates turnkey leasing and wants to do everything itself, but in the end, it still signed the contract."

Lumentum delivered a quarter with revenue more than doubling year-over-year, driven primarily by AI data center optical interconnect demand, with both the components and systems segments exceeding expectations.

Current odds of a rate hike stand at about 50%. Moderate inflation data could support a wait-and-see stance, but hawkish positions continue to leave the policy outlook fraught with uncertainty.

The growth story of AI optical interconnects hits the accounting books of a convertible bond

Key Takeaways: After Meta's acquisition of Manus was blocked by Chinese regulators, the company announced it would resume independent operations and initiate a data cleanup process. On the same day, former Alibaba Qwen lead Lin Junyang founded Pragmatik Labs in Shanghai, focusing on digital and physical world agent research. Both events point to the AI competition shifting focus from model capabilities to agents' actual task execution ability.Key Elements:To meet regulatory requirements, Manus will delete user data generated on and after December 29, 2025. The backup window closes before August 23, with services resuming on August 25. Unaffected users need not take any action.The acquisition deal between Manus and Meta was valued at approximately $2 billion (with a potential total value of $2.5 billion). Announced on December 29, 2025, it was later prohibited under China's foreign investment security review, and the two parties completed operational separation in May.Manus saw significant growth before the acquisition: it raised $75 million from Benchmark in 2025 (at a valuation of approximately $500 million). Eight months after product launch, its annualized recurring revenue exceeded $100 million, with over 147 trillion tokens processed cumulatively and more than 80 million virtual computers created.Manus founding team background: Founder Xiao Hong (graduate in Software Engineering from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, previously founded Nightingale Technology, serving over 2 million business users), co-founder Ji Yichao (previously founded Peak Labs), and co-founder Zhang Tao (previously worked at ByteDance and LightYear.AI).During the unwinding of the deal, the founding team explored raising approximately $1 billion to buy back shares, with early investors ZhenFund and Hony Capital participating in discussions. After resuming independent operations, user data will continue to be stored in the United States and Singapore.Pragmatik Labs, founded by Lin Junyang (former head of Alibaba Qwen technology, stepped down on March 3, 2026), focuses on digital agents (knowledge work, enterprise operations) and physical agents (embodied intelligence), emphasizing reasoning, tool invocation, feedback learning, and coordinated action capabilities.The name Pragmatik Labs derives from the linguistic term "pragmatics," reflecting the philosophy that "AGI must solve real-world problems." Its research direction aligns with Lin Junyang's view of evolving from "training models" to "training agents."
