Market Chatter: Meta, TikTok Push Back Against Information Requests by British Regulator
MT newswire2026/10/05 19:1403:14 PM EDT, 10/05/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Meta Platforms (META), TikTok and X are pushing back on the amount of information sought by British regulator Ofcom linked to online safety, Reuters reported Monday, citing court filings. The companies said the information request is burdensome and lacks a clearly defined regulatory purpose, the report said. "This challenge is on a narrow issue regarding Ofcom's implementation of a substantial extra-statutory program not mandated by law, when the Online Safety Act already provides for a significant transparency regime," a TikTok spokesperson said in an email to MT Newswires. Meta and X did not immediately respond to requests for comment. (Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.

BUZZ - Morningstar expects Woodside's revenue growth will outpace global peers by the end of this decade
On October 9, Morningstar predicted that the revenue of Australian oil and gas producer Woodside Energy (WDS.AX) will grow by over 30% by 2030, outpacing any of its international peers. Woodside Energy’s share price dropped by 0.6% on the day to 32.12 AUD, after surging 2.6% in the previous trading session. The stock is poised to end a three-week losing streak, with oil prices rising due to escalating tensions in the Middle East, and is set for a 2.8% weekly gain O/R. Morningstar expects Woodside’s revenue to increase as major new projects come online, and forecasts free cash flow to exceed 7 billion USD after 2030, reflecting a 300% rise from 2025. The report added that market sentiment remains bearish, with the current share price below its estimated fair value of 44.00 AUD. Year-to-date, Woodside’s share price has risen 36.2%, while Santos shares are up 41.3%.
