According to Jin10, a Bank of England survey published Friday found that businesses expected to raise prices for goods and services slightly faster than they had expected the previous month, while wage growth was expected to slow. The Bank surveyed about 1,945 chief financial officers from October 2 to 16. Businesses expected selling prices to rise 3.8% over the next 12 months, up from 3.7% in September, and reported that selling prices had risen 3.8% in the year through October. The Bank said businesses’ expectations for output price inflation over the coming year were unchanged on a three-month average basis. Businesses reported that wages rose 3.9% in the year through October, down from 4% in September, and expected wages to rise 3.4% over the next 12 months. The Bank said this meant businesses expected wage growth to fall by 0.5 percentage points over the next 12 months. It added that there was little evidence that rising inflation was accelerating wage growth and triggering another round of price increases.

According to Jin10, Eurostat data released Friday showed that the Eurozone economy grew faster than expected in the third quarter. Resilient investment and consumption helped the economy withstand pressure from high energy prices. The economy grew 0.4% quarter over quarter, below the unusually strong 0.6% growth in the second quarter but above economists’ 0.2% forecast. Year over year, growth was 1.3%, exceeding the 1.1% forecast and broadly matching the economy’s “potential growth” level—the rate it can achieve without stimulus. Although the Eurozone’s growth rate was less than half that of the United States, the result was far better than the pessimistic forecasts made by markets after the Iran war began. Large spending in artificial intelligence, defense, and infrastructure boosted investment, strong overseas demand supported industrial production, and households continued to consume while further reducing their already high savings rate. This performance prompted markets to repeatedly raise their growth forecasts this year. Most forecasters now expect the Eurozone economy to grow by more than 1% this year and accelerate further in 2027.

Dulo, an engineering AI startup co-founded by computer scientist Sebastian Thrun, has raised $130 million in a seed round. According to Sina Finance, citing people familiar with the matter, Thrun and co-founder Adrian Oren established the company in San Francisco earlier this year. Investors include former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, Kleiner Perkins Chairman John Doerr, DST Global, Construct Capital, and Lowercarbon Capital. Thrun founded Google X, co-founded Google Brain, and launched the self-driving project that later became Waymo. Oren has invested in hundreds of startups and previously founded several companies, including AI healthcare firm Torch, which OpenAI is reportedly seeking to acquire for about $100 million, as well as robotics companies Foundational and Seneca. Former Autodesk CEO Carl Bass is an adviser to Dulo. Dulo is developing AI models to automate engineering design and verification. Users can enter parameters and ask a model to design an airplane or car; the model then produces a feasible design, while other companies handle manufacturing. The company describes its work as developing a foundational model for hardware design. Dulo faces competition from Prometheus, which is developing AI for engineering and manufacturing, and Dynatomics, which is building a large language model for hardware engineering. OpenAI and Anthropic models are also advancing in mechanical engineering. After OpenAI launched GPT-6 Astra, users found it could work with engineering software to create a computer-aided design model of a traffic light from an image. However, general-purpose models such as Astra remain far from designing a new vehicle completely from scratch, leaving room for specialized companies like Dulo to develop engineering capabilities.

Cybersecurity startup Cyera is in talks with investors about a new funding round that could value it at $20 billion, nearly double its valuation four months ago. According to Sina Finance, the discussions are at an early stage, and the company's spokesperson declined to comment. The talks come as AI-driven vulnerability discovery fuels a surge in corporate security spending. Founded five years ago by Yotam Segev and Tamar Bar-Ilan, both veterans of Israel's elite military intelligence Unit 8200, the New York-based company protects corporate data from cyberattacks. Its products scan customers' cloud storage, databases, and email systems to identify and track sensitive data, alerting IT managers to risks of leaks or theft. Customers include Blue Cross Blue Shield, Paramount, and Chipotle. In June this year, Cyera completed a funding round at a $12 billion valuation, raising $600 million; the round was expanded by another $400 million last month. The size of the proposed new round is not known, and the company's financial performance has not been disclosed.
