07:10 PM EDT, 08/31/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Apple (AAPL) has claimed that OpenAI is destroying crucial evidence in its legal case against the ChatGPT maker over alleged theft of trade secrets, Bloomberg reported Monday, citing a court filing. The tech giant said former iPhone engineer Chang Liu, who left Apple for OpenAI in January, "not only downloaded a confidential Apple circuit schematic but also used it in his work" at the AI company, according to the media outlet. Apple and OpenAI did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment. (Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) has raised its forecast for average Brent crude oil prices in 2026 and 2027 to $97 and $86, respectively, reflecting pressures from global inventory declines, Middle East supply disruptions, and rising transportation costs. As oil production in the Middle East gradually recovers and global inventories rebound from low levels, the EIA expects the average spot price of Brent crude to fall to $87 per barrel in the second quarter of 2027, and further decline to $77 per barrel by the fourth quarter.
