UBS just announced a $3 billion share buyback program, kicking off with $1 billion in the next three months—boosted by a stellar Q2 that smashed earnings forecasts thanks to a roaring trading environment fueled by global tensions and the AI boom. Net income hit $2.8 billion, driven by a 26% surge in investment banking revenue and a surprise $36 billion inflow in wealth management.

Meanwhile, global investment banking hit a record $47 billion in Q2, underscoring a volatile but lucrative market.
