Several killed at anti-coup protest in Sudan
An anti-coup protest in Sudan has turned deadly, with 14 shot dead by armed forces
Protests have been taking place across the nation, but the fatalities all in the Sudanese capital of Khartoum, raised the total anti-coup protest death toll to 38.
Protesters have marched through neighbourhoods urging the coup to end
Protesters were met with live rounds of bullets, fired by security forces.
Authorities cut off mobile phone communications and also dispersed tear gas into the crowd.
In a statement, the Central Committee of Sudanese Doctors stated that security forces “used live bullets heavily in different areas of the capital” and that there are “tens of gunshot injuries, some of them in serious condition”.
The CCSD also said security forces had arrested injured people inside Khartoum hospitals.
The people of Sudan continue to take to the streets demanding civilian rule
Those protesting against the coup took to the streets in defiance of a deadly crackdown by security forces that has already killed dozens of people since the military seized power in the nation last month.
Protesters are demanding the coup end, and request a full handover to civilian rule and for the coup leaders to be taken to court.

AI stocks surge amid market shifts and spending warnings
AI sector drives economic growth; Meta adjusts strategy, Palantir’s valuation sparks questions, and Nvidia leads amid rising competition.
AI sector drives economic growth; Meta adjusts strategy, Palantir’s valuation sparks questions, and Nvidia leads amid rising competition.
The artificial intelligence sector continues to be a major driver of growth for both the U.S. and global economies. Companies at the forefront of AI innovation are influencing market trends and reshaping industries worldwide.
Meta’s stock has rebounded slightly following reports of potential cost-cutting measures and job reductions in its Reality Labs division. Investors are watching closely as the company adjusts its strategy to manage rising expenses and optimize innovation.
Palantir is trading at over 120 times forward sales and 180 times forward earnings, signaling investor confidence but also raising questions about valuation risks. Meanwhile, Nvidia maintains a market cap of $4.2 trillion as a leading AI chip supplier, yet competition is ramping up.
These moves highlight the growing tension between tech giants’ AI ambitions and the practical need to balance profits with heavy R&D spending.
Some analysts, however, warn that rapid growth may not be sustainable, with current levels of AI-related spending potentially overshooting realistic returns.

Analysts forecast $500 billion AI investment by 2026, transforming corporate spending priorities and enhancing economic productivity.
Analysts predict that artificial intelligence companies could invest over $500 billion in 2026, signaling a major shift in corporate spending priorities. This surge in capital allocation comes as businesses look to harness AI to drive growth and efficiency across multiple sectors.
Following strong third-quarter earnings, overall capital spending estimates for 2026 have been revised upward. However, investors are becoming more selective, focusing on companies that can clearly demonstrate revenue benefits from their AI investments, separating hype from tangible results.
AI adoption is expected to boost economic productivity, with significant investment already flowing into AI infrastructure such as semiconductors and data centres. The coming year could redefine how companies leverage technology to gain a competitive edge.
