Meta unveiled its Muse Charm VR glasses and a new AI agent ecosystem at Connect 2026, signaling a shift toward compact, consumer-focused AI hardware. JPMorgan raised its price target to $920, citing strong AI monetization momentum, though the stock remains under pressure from broader macro fears. The launch positions Meta to compete directly with Apple in the spatial computing space, leveraging its massive user base for agent adoption. President Trump and President Xi held talks in Washington, focusing on trade, AI, and the Iran conflict. The extension of the trade truce to January provides a temporary reprieve from tariff escalation, supporting market stability. However, the summit's agenda highlights the deepening strategic competition in AI and the fragility of the geopolitical landscape, with Iran serving as a persistent wildcard.
