Trading Weekly AI News
August 25 - September 2, 2025This weekly update shows how agentic AI is changing the way people and companies trade and handle money. Agentic AI means computer programs that can think and make decisions on their own, just like having a really smart robot helper.
The biggest trading news this week came from someone who built an AI trading system that can make money even when markets are going crazy. This is important because trading used to need people watching screens all day. Now, AI can do the watching and trading by itself, making decisions in seconds that might take humans much longer.
In the United States, Wells Fargo, one of the biggest banks in the country, made a big deal with Google Cloud. They want to use agentic AI tools everywhere in their bank. This means customers might get help from AI when they call the bank, apply for loans, or need financial advice. The AI can work all day and night without getting tired.
Another financial company called Family Financial Credit Union started using special AI from Algebrik AI. This AI helps with digital lending, which means giving people loans using computer programs instead of having them visit a bank office. The AI can look at someone's financial information and decide if they should get a loan, all without a human having to check everything.
The money side of this story is huge. Research companies found that the agentic AI market was worth $6.23 billion in 2024. But they think it will grow to $107.28 billion by 2032. That's like going from a small city to a whole country in terms of money value.
This growth is happening because businesses see that agentic AI can make operations more efficient and improve customer experiences. In simple words, it helps companies work better and makes customers happier. Companies are putting more money into AI because it saves them time and helps them make better decisions.
One research group called IDC said that spending on AI will grow by 31.9% every year between 2025 and 2029. This means companies will keep buying more AI tools each year because they see how helpful they are.
But there are also some concerns. Security experts are worried that bad people might use agentic AI for harmful things. Since these AI systems can work on their own, criminals might try to use them for fraud or cyberattacks. Companies like Anthropic are working hard to find ways to stop this from happening.
For regular people, this means that banking and investing might become easier and faster. AI helpers could manage your money, help you make investment decisions, or even trade stocks for you while you sleep. However, it's important that these systems are built safely so they protect people's money and personal information.
