The International Monetary Fund has yet to see enough banks pulling back on lending that would cause the U.S. Federal Reserve to change course with its rate-hiking cycle. "We don't yet see a significant slowdown in lending. The Federal Reserve in a May banks report warned that lenders are worried about conditions ahead, as trouble in mid-sized financial institutions in the U.S. caused banks to tighten lending standards for households and businesses. A majority of major global central banks, including the U.S. Federal Reserve, have tightened their monetary policy aggressively to tame soaring inflation. Meanwhile, the world's global debt has swelled to a near-record high of $305 trillion, according to the Institute of International Finance.

Apple is moving to in-house 5G modem chips for its 2024 iPhones, as far as the chief executive of Qualcomm — which currently produces them for the tech giant — is aware. "We're making no plans for 2024, my planning assumption is we're not providing [Apple] a modem in '24, but it's their decision to make," Cristiano Amon told CNBC at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Apple's most recent iPhone 14 models use Qualcomm modems, but the company has been looking to go solo in the wireless connectivity market for some years. It bought Intel's modem business in 2019 and there had been speculation it would begin using in-house parts this year. Amon did not confirm whether Apple would pay Qualcomm QTL licenses if it moves to its own modems, but said royalty was "independent from providing a chip."
The explosive popularity of ChatGPT is an opportunity to show off the capabilities of artificial intelligence on smartphones, according to chip company Qualcomm 's chief executive. "This is the milestone we've been waiting for to establish Qualcomm as an AI company," Cristiano Amon told CNBC at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Developed by research company OpenAI, chatbot ChatGPT has been shared widely online, as users ask it to answer questions, generate text or provide detailed, responsive information. Qualcomm recently released videos of text being used to generate AI images on an Android phone, which it also demonstrated at the conference. "For you to make that happen, you can't run everything in a data center, you're going to have to bring the AI to the devices."

Bank of America Chief Executive Brian Moynihan said Wednesday that current efforts to produce a set of official global standards on ESG issues were vital to "align capitalism with what society wants from it." He said it was now important to "go to the official side" and was supporting the new International Sustainability Standards Board set up by non-profit the IFRS. This is due to comprise a set of general non-financial sustainability disclosure requirements for companies, and a set specifically on climate. Moynihan also said it was crucial that sustainability and ethical standards became official and global. "Which, at the end of the day, will align capitalism with what society wants from it and get us going faster."

There's something about the latest crypto crash that makes it different from previous downturns. Artur Widak | Nurphoto | Getty ImagesThe ongoing crypto winter is "only going to get worse" as the industry recalibrates to a higher interest rate world, according to the chief executive of blockchain firm Tezos. "Crypto hasn't been evaluated by that metric, and neither has technology in the last 10 years that we've had low interest rates," Breitman told CNBC. "It remains to be seen, but basically I think what you'll find is the things that are useful are going to thrive." The notion of the end of the era of easy money in crypto is one that analysts have been discussing in recent months amid the downturn.

Investment director Neil Veitch of SVM Asset Management revealed on Pro Talks how he's trading as central banks around the world aggressively hike interest rates. Speaking to CNBC's Karen Tso Thursday, Veitch said he'd stay away from "expensive" stocks until inflation fell under 4%. That's when he thinks the U.S. Federal Reserve might pivot and loosen financial conditions in the market. "But I do have a strong preference for U.S. tech versus European technology," he admitted, and revealed his favorite among the FAANG stocks. Elsewhere in tech, Veitch was bearish on Tesla, saying the "risk-reward is unattractive" at current levels.
