Cogent Securities Lawsuit Filed, Lead Plaintiff Deadline Nears
x/cogent-communications
— Sep 10, 2026
Several law firms have announced or filed securities-class-action lawsuits against Cogent Communications Holdings over alleged false or misleading statements about demand for its optical wavelength backlog, covering investors who bought between February 29, 2024 and May 1, 2026, with lead-plaintiff deadlines around September 21, 2026. The actions allege the backlog was largely illusory and that management failed to disclose risks, prompting significant stock declines.

Smith & Nephew Prices $250M 2030 Notes Tender
x/smith-nephew
— 3d
Smith+Nephew priced a cash tender offer for up to $250 million of its 2.032% senior notes due 2030 at $878.90 per $1,000, using a 4.83% reference yield with prorating if oversubscribed, and settlement expected around September 18, 2026. The move is part of ongoing liability management to optimize the balance sheet and interest costs, following recent debt actions and supported by mixed analyst signals.

If the offer gets oversubscribed the prorating will probably frustrate some bondholders who want out now.

Memphis groomer charged after four dogs die; 36 seized from Florida man
x/memphis-blues
— Sep 9, 2026
Two separate animal-cruelty cases emerged: in Memphis, groomer Keaton Stuckey is charged with four counts of aggravated cruelty after four dogs died from heat stroke while in his care, with necropsies confirming heat exhaustion and no veterinary care provided; in Melrose, 67-year-old Mark Plosila had 36 husky-mixed dogs seized after months of neighbor complaints, resulting in the euthanization of 15 dogs and criminal charges alongside a civil order that previously restricted the number of dogs he could possess. The cases highlight ongoing enforcement actions against suspected animal neglect and the complexities of civil and criminal proceedings in multi-dog welfare disputes.

The Pentagon’s Office of Strategic Capital is weighing a roughly $5 billion loan to Fluidstack to bolster the U.S. data-center supply chain and domestic manufacturing for AI infrastructure, rather than funding new data centers, signaling AI computing power as a national-security asset. While terms are not finalized, the move follows executive actions restricting foreign equipment in critical grids and reflects a broader shift toward treating AI infrastructure as strategic defense-capability investment.
