Why Anthropic has a major China problem ahead of its blockbuster IPO

The growing popularity of Chinese artificial intelligence models has emerged as a key risk factor for Anthropic ahead of its blockbuster initial public offering, according to US research firm Hedgeye Risk Management. “It’s all about Chinese competition when analysing Anthropic,” said Felix Wang, managing director and global tech sector head at Hedgeye. “Many of my clients are asking the same question.” The assessment comes as Anthropic faces renewed investor jitters over whether its massive AI...

Homeplus' recovery falters as sales slump, buyer search stalls

Homeplus, which narrowly avoided liquidation and resumed operations in August, is struggling to regain its footing as weak sales and stalled takeover efforts cloud its recovery, according to industry officials Monday. The uncertainty has also prompted a wave of voluntary resignations among employees. A major supermarket chain, Homeplus is currently undergoing court-led rehabilitation after struggling for years with the decline of the country’s hypermarket sector and consumers’ shift to online shopping. In July, the Seoul Bankruptcy Court briefly terminated the proceedings after the embattled retailer failed to secure the minimum 200 billion won ($150 million) in fresh funding needed to carry out its restructuring plan. Homeplus reversed that outcome only after obtaining emergency financing from Meritz Financial Group, its largest creditor, at the last minute. The retailer reopened all 67 of its remaining stores nationwide on Aug. 13, hoping to put its recovery back on track. Sales reached 10.63 billion won on the first day, followed by a daily average of 8.7 billion won over the nex

DaouKiwoom-CJ consortium picked as preferred bidder for debt-laden JoongAng Ilbo

Creditors of JoongAng Ilbo Co. picked DaouKiwoom-CJ consortium as the preferred bidder for one of the major South Korean newspaper publishers as they closed bidding for the debt-laden company earlier in the day, industry sources said Monday. According to the sources, the DaouKiwoom-CJ consortium beat Orion and four others in a race to take over JoongAng Ilbo, a deal estimated at between 400 billion won ($300 million) and 500 billion won. In July this year, JoongAng Ilbo entered the debt workout program, led by main creditor Hana Bank and other lenders, amid liquidity problems at its parent, JoongAng Group. Creditors' debt collection has been suspended for three months, allowing the company to avoid court-led rehabilitation proceedings. JoongAng Holdings owns a 64.7 percent stake in JoongAng Ilbo and is controlled by the founding family of JoongAng Group.

Academics explore how entrepreneurs can navigate AI disruption at Jinju forum

JINJU, South Gyeongsang Province — Academics explored how entrepreneurs can turn artificial intelligence (AI)-driven disruption into business opportunities and solutions to social challenges at the 2026 Jinju K-Entrepreneurship International Forum. The fourth session, held Tuesday, the second day of the forum, examined how individuals and organizations can navigate uncertainty and turn technological disruption into opportunities through experimentation, resilience and practical problem-solving. Erkko Autio, chair in technology transfer and entrepreneurship at Imperial College London, pointed out that AI has dramatically lowered the technical and financial barriers to developing products, making the products themselves less effective as a source of competitive advantage. “The bottleneck in entrepreneurship was that it required engineering capacity and money. But now AI has collapsed that constraint because anyone can now build whatever they desire,” Autio said. “So the competitive advantage now comes from the entrepreneurial journey, which takes time, and from the product itself t

Musinsa, Sono International face IPO uncertainty amid market volatility

Recent volatility in Korea’s stock market is adding uncertainty to the listing plans of companies like Musinsa, as a prolonged downturn could weigh on their valuations and dampen demand for new shares, according to industry analysts Tuesday. The benchmark KOSPI has largely declined since falling below 7,000 earlier this month, amid concerns over the sustainability of artificial intelligence (AI) spending and the outlook for the semiconductor industry. On Thursday, the index plunged more than 7 percent, triggering both a sell-side sidecar and a Level 1 circuit breaker, which temporarily halted trading. Such turbulence complicates the initial public offering (IPO) process. Firms must persuade investors that their valuations are justified even as the share prices of comparable listed peers fall. A broader market downturn could also leave newly listed shares trading below their offering prices, eroding their market value soon after they go public. Musinsa is one such candidate, with an estimated valuation of nearly 10 trillion won ($7.53 billion). The country’s largest fashion platform

Can North Jeolla Province become Korea's 3rd financial hub?

North Jeolla Province is betting on the National Pension Service (NPS), which manages 1.6 quadrillion won ($1.2 trillion) in assets, to help transform the region into Korea's third financial hub. But while the world's third-largest pension fund has drawn a growing number of asset managers to the region, infrastructure gaps and difficulties in attracting financial talent are raising questions about whether the ambition can become reality, industry officials said Tuesday. Located about 250 kilometers south of Seoul, North Jeolla Province has traditionally been known for its agricultural roots and cultural heritage. That began to change in 2015, when the NPS relocated to Jeonju, the province's largest city. Domestic and foreign asset managers are flocking to Jeonju to deepen ties with the NPS. In June, the NPS began awarding an additional point to asset managers with a presence in Jeonju for selecting investment managers. From global asset managers such as BlackRock, Blackstone, BNY, Franklin Templeton and PIMCO, to domestic players including Mirae Asset, Samsung, Hanwha and KB Asset Manage
