Notes

A news scan found a document signed on September 8, which modifies tariffs. The changes take effect on September 15 at 00:01 ET. This is according to a presidential action posted on the White House website. The modification includes new 50% additional duties on certain products from Canada, except for civil aircraft and parts that meet a specific condition called HTSUS General Note 6. The products that will have these new duties include steel structures, aluminum profiles, tubes, and some types of paper and furniture. However, some products like salt, Portland cement, refined lead, and certain types of tissue and switchgear will no longer have this 50% duty. The modification also changes some detailed categories of products. This change only applies to specific products from specific countries, and does not exclude all aircraft or apply to all companies. The information comes directly from the administration, but it is recommended to verify the changes with the relevant authorities, such as the Customs and Border Protection agency. https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/ANNEX-I-AUTO.pdf

A news scan found the headline 'MATX September 8 FBX/air weekly census: congestion coexists with falling ocean rates' with the following details. The information was retrieved on September 9 at 00:05 UTC. The publisher of the index has a commercial interest and the route aggregates are not the actual yields realized by MATX. The weekly rates for Asia to US West Coast, US East Coast, North Europe, and the Mediterranean were -1%, -3%, -3%, and -1% respectively, with approximate levels of 7600, 9500, 4500, and 4700 USD per FEU. The largest decline was in the Mediterranean, with a peak decline of 2600 USD, which is a 37% decrease, and in North Europe, with a decline of 1300 USD, which is a 23% decrease. Historically, since 2017, the Mediterranean has had a 17% premium. Air rates from China to North America increased by 5%, and from China to Europe increased by 6%, while rates from Europe to North America were flat, with a narrative of 6.30 USD/kg from the US and 4.88 USD/kg from Europe. The publisher claims that fuel prices are approximately 60% above pre-war levels, but this is not an audited cost. There were also reports of 32 daily transits in Panama, which is a decrease of 4, and a half-foot draft cut that has been postponed. It is recommended to verify this information with the ACP before taking any action. Additionally, there are unverified reports of airport reopenings, which are not the basis of any proposal. It is noted that four ocean lanes are correlated and not independent trade samples. https://www.freightos.com/freight-resources/mediterranean-ocean-rates-pull-even-with-asia-eu-possibly-from-red-sea-transit-bump-september-8-2026-update/

A news scan found the headline about the ASPI annual filing. The annual filing for April 10, 2026, has a section about risk factors that was reviewed on September 8 at 21:02 UTC. This section says that the company has a limited operating history, its ability to produce enriched isotopes on a commercial scale is unproven, and it expects to continue losing money. The company Renergen started commissioning and production in January 2023, but this does not prove that its current operations are accepted for export. A direct PDF file called DirectPDF200 was downloaded at 21:03, but the full PDF and supplier concentration census were not parsed because the necessary tools, a PDF library and pdftotext, were not available. The risk section from the past is not saying that the company's operations in September have not changed. https://ir.aspisotopes.com/sec-filings/all-sec-filings/content/0001193125-26-151294/0001193125-26-151294.pdf

A news scan found the headline 'FRO Recovered issuer archive has August 28 latest entries'. On September 8 at 21:03 UTC, the actual net asset value link was accessed and returned a 200 result, showing the latest listed information was from August 28, which included Q2 results and a presentation. There were no new incidents or updates on September 8 in the reviewed list. A previous error message, 404, was due to a wrong route, not because the issuer was down or missing. The STNG archive has its latest update from September 3. There is no independent confirmation of a new incident from these two issuer lists. https://www.frontlineplc.cy/category/press-releases/

A news scan found the headline 'ASPI After-close stale single-exchange spread bps'. Retrieved on September 8 at 21:03 UTC, the IEX exchange had a bid of 3.64 with a size of 100 and no ask size at 20:00:04.95590652Z, with a last price of 4.215 at 19:59:59.354720409Z. Since there was no ask price, the spread is undefined. These quotes are roughly 63 minutes old and not current, as they are not the National Best Bid and Offer during extended hours. The spread is calculated as the difference between the ask and bid prices divided by the midpoint, multiplied by 10,000, but this requires both bid and ask prices. The live Securities Information Processor is 403. The daily bar data from IEX is not consolidated from the closing auction and does not allow entries from these quotes. https://runway.adityaperswal.workers.dev/data/stock-snapshots?feed=iex

A news scan found the following data on September 8 at approximately 21:03 UTC. The IEX exchange had a bid price of 67.45 and an ask price of 93.94 with sizes of 100 for both, at 20:00:00.695002097Z. The last trade was at 82.18 at 19:59:58.002545053Z. These quotes are roughly 63 minutes old and do not reflect the current extended-hours National Best Bid and Offer, which is a measure of the best available prices to buy and sell a stock. The spread, or difference between the bid and ask prices, is calculated as the ask price minus the bid price, divided by the midpoint of the two prices, multiplied by 10,000, when both a bid and ask are present. The Live SIP, or Securities Information Processor, was 403. The IEX daily bar, which is a summary of trading activity, does not include the closing auction and does not allow entries based on these quotes. https://runway.adityaperswal.workers.dev/data/stock-snapshots?feed=iex

A news scan found the headline 'FRO After-close stale single-exchange spread bps'. Retrieved on September 8 at approximately 21:03 UTC, the data showed that on the IEX exchange, the bid price was 39.62 and the ask price was 52.97, with sizes of 100 for both, at 20:00:00.001600471Z. The last price was 46.57 at 19:59:43.625635607Z. These quotes are roughly 63 minutes old and do not reflect the current extended-hours National Best Bid and Offer, which is a measure of the best prices to buy or sell a stock. The spread, or difference between the ask and bid prices, is calculated as (ask-bid)/mid*10000 when there are both a bid and an ask price. The Live SIP, or Securities Information Processor, was 403. Additionally, the IEX daily bar, which is a summary of the day's trading activity, did not include the closing auction, and no entry was permitted based on these quotes. https://runway.adityaperswal.workers.dev/data/stock-snapshots?feed=iex

On September 8 at approximately 21:03 UTC, the latest issuer list update was found, which was dated September 3 and included Q3 TCE and charter-out information. No newer fixture update was found as of September 8. The absence of a listed update does not necessarily mean that no commercial fixtures have occurred, as the list only provides coverage. A search of the FRO investor relations press releases page returned a 404 error, indicating that the actual link needs to be resolved before inferring the absence of information. https://www.scorpiotankers.com/media/company-news/

On September 8, at 21:01 UTC, a query of trades, which is a request for information about trades, returned two closed trade IDs, 6FRO and 3STNG, both of which were closed by the operator, meaning the person or system in charge of the trades. There were no trades that were open, pending, or closing at that time. The context of the fund was cash of 278.67, equity of 850.99, capital of 212.7475, and risk of 8.5099. The system, which uses a method called Own2 wins, cannot estimate the average loss or the edge, which is the advantage of making a trade, at this time. There was a correction to the timing of observations 15970 and 15971, which showed that the retrieval of data occurred from 21:01 to 21:02 UTC, not approximately 21:04 UTC as previously thought. The recordedAt time is the official time. https://runway.adityaperswal.workers.dev

On September 8, at 21:02 UTC, a direct HTTP connection showed the latest release, number 119, which was issued at 09:15 ET. The company said it still expects to meet its production and shipment goals for stable isotopes. The official Command Center page has links to register for the OpenExchange, which requires JavaScript, and a video, but the full original replay has not been reviewed. The issuer's homepage, which is indexed by search engines, still shows August 20 as the latest update, which shows that the index is not up to date compared to the direct RSS feed, and the August 20 update should not be considered the latest disclosure from the issuer. https://ir.aspisotopes.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/119/asp-isotopes-hosts-inaugural-capital-markets-day-and

A news scan found the headline that the latest listed incident remains September 5. On September 8, at approximately 21:01-04 UTC, a manual check of the web list and linked original was performed. The latest listed release, which was on September 5, describes three IRGC carriers. However, no September 8 event was confirmed by this list or a targeted search. There is a claim from a military participant, which is an interested source, and it is possible that there is a publication lag. The UKMTO recent-incidents report, which is dynamic and rendered as reports, remains incomplete coverage, and does not prove that no incident occurred. Additionally, no vessel IMO, cargo, or new profitable fixtures have been verified. https://www.centcom.mil/MEDIA/PUBLIC-RELEASES/

A news scan found a transcript of management remarks from September 8. The transcript, which was not verified, said the first product is expected to be released before the end of September. The company has contracted to buy 15% helium and 75% LNG, with plans to increase helium to 50-75% and LNG to 100%. The forecast for full-year revenue from Phase 1 is $25-30 million, with a gross profit of $5-10 million, based on current prices. Management stated that helium production depends on LNG sales. Delays were attributed to equipment issues with original equipment manufacturers. No shipments were mentioned in the reviewed parts of the transcript. The full transcript was not checked, and the funding information in the transcript is inconsistent and should not be used. https://earningscalls.dev/transcripts/asp-isotopes-inc_aspi_earnings_call_transcript_2026-09-08

A news scan found the headline 'FRO Collector test quote changed within minutes'. On September 8 at 19:44:03, the collector test exited with a status of 0. The FRO quote at 19:44:01.007604539 had a bid price of 46.54 and an ask price of 48.56, with sizes of 100 and 100, and a last price of 46.57 at 19:43:28. The spread, or difference between the bid and ask prices, was calculated as 2.02 divided by 47.55, multiplied by 10000, which equals 424.816 basis points, compared to 8.586 basis points at 19:41. A basis point is a unit of measurement for interest rates and spreads. The ASPI quote at 19:44:03.324 had a bid price of 4.19 and an ask price of 4.20, with sizes of 3000 and 3500, and a last price of 4.19.

The script was not scheduled to run, with an error code of 422 and a five job cap, and a recipe number of 1189. https://runway.adityaperswal.workers.dev/data/stock-snapshots?feed=iex

A news scan found the headline 'FRO UKMTO rendered coverage incomplete' with the following information: On September 8 at approximately 19:43, a web render reported zero reports, but the homepage is dynamic and a direct HTTP request resulted in a 403 error, which means access was forbidden, so we should not assume there were zero physical incidents. Additionally, CENTCOM also received a 403 error. No new strike on September 8 was validated in the initial review. https://www.ukmto.org/recent-incidents
