周五美股成交额第1名 美光 收高15.49%，股价创历史新高，成交456.83亿美元，市值突破8000亿美元。 存储芯片制造商的股价周五普涨，4月底以来，美光科技与 闪迪 这两只股票的累计涨幅均已超过40%，成为费城半导体指数中表現最亮眼的成分股。 分析师指出，本轮上涨的核心动力是存储芯片价格的持续攀升。自2月底伊朗战争爆发以来，DRAM和NAND闪存芯片的现货价格已分别上涨约25%和18%。导致供应紧张的原因包括：韩国厂商占全球存储芯片供应量的60%以上，中东冲突导致的海运受阻和保险成本上升已影响出货；AI服务器对高带宽内存的需求正在消耗大量产能，挤压了传统PC和智能手机的内存供应；主要厂商在过去两年中削减了资本支出，导致当前产能无法快速响应需求增长。 第2名闪迪收高16.60%，股价创历史新高，成交297.07亿美元。 存储芯片制造商的股价周五普涨，4月底以来，美光科技与闪迪这两只股票的累计涨幅均已超过40%，成为费城半导体指数中表現最亮眼的成分股。 分析师指出，本轮上涨的核心动力是存储芯片价格的持续攀升。自2月底伊朗战争爆发以来，DRAM和NAND闪存芯片的现货价格已分别上涨约25%和18%。 第3名英伟达收高1.76%，成交289.29亿美元。周五美股AI芯片板块普涨。 第4名 特斯拉 收高4.02%，成交274.62亿美元。分析师指出，特斯拉的工业属性常常被其汽车业务所掩盖。公司位于德克萨斯州和德国的超级工厂每年生产数百万个4680电池单元、数千台Optimus机器人和数十套Megapack储能系统。特斯拉的能源存储业务一季度营收同比增长80%，毛利率超过20%，高于汽车业务的15%，市场似乎尚未充分定价储能业务的长期潜力。 第5名 英特尔 收高13.96%，成交271.67亿美元。有报道称，英特尔已与 苹果 达成初步协议，将为苹果设备制造部分芯片。报道称，两家公司已谈判一年多，目前仍不清楚英特尔将为哪些苹果产品制造芯片。 第6名 AMD 收高11.44%，股价创历史新高，成交251.5亿美元，市值突破7000亿美元。周五美股AI硬件板块普涨。 第11名 高通 收高8.17%，股价创历史新高，成交82.16亿美元。高通已连续四个交易日上涨。该公司于圣迭戈当地时间5月6日，正式宣布推出第五代骁龙6移动平台与第五代骁龙4移动平台，进一步丰富骁龙智能手机芯片产品...

An unprecedented outbreak of hantavirus has rocked a luxury cruise ship off the coast of West Africa, triggering a tsunami of news stories and a flood of post-pandemic anxiety. So far, eight cases have been reported, including three people who have died. The Dutch-flagged ship, MV Hondius , which began its journey from Ushuaia, Argentina, on April 1, is still carrying 147 passengers and crew . To date, those remaining on board are showing no symptoms and have been asked to sequester themselves in their cabins. At the time of publication, the ship is sailing on a three- to four-day journey that began the evening of May 6 from Cape Verde to the Canary Islands, where Spanish authorities have agreed to assist the imperiled vessel. With the ship en route, experts assembled by the World Health Organization are now racing to create a novel step-by-step procedure to allow the remaining passengers and crew on board to disembark safely. Meanwhile, authorities are tracking down and monitoring 30 former passengers who disembarked the ship onto the remote island of St. Helena on April 24—before the outbreak was identified but nearly two weeks after the first passenger had died on board on April 11. Those 30 passengers hail from at least 12 different countries, including six from the US. Read full article Comments

Earnings Call Insights: Ready Capital (RC) Q1 2026 Management view "The first quarter of 2026 represents ongoing progress in our balance sheet repositioning strategy initiated in the fourth quarter of '25." (Chairman, CEO & Chief Investment Officer Thomas Capasse) "Year-to-date, we have generated $1.4 billion in cash from loan sales and liquidations" and "facilitated the paydown of over $1.1 billion in warehouse debt" while "retir[ing] $184 million of corporate debt." (CEO Capasse) "Our liquidity plan contemplates an incremental $400 million liquidity from the sale and runoff of $2 billion to $2.5 billion of CRE loans and REO assets through year-end." (CEO Capasse) "Based on current projections, we believe these remaining actions, along with current liquidity are sufficient to retire our remaining '26 maturities and satisfy the future cash flow needs of the business." (CEO Capasse) "Upon the expected second quarter completion of the final CRE loan pool sale contemplated in our liquidity plan, we anticipate the material book value pressure that the company has experienced in the past several quarters will be substantially behind us." (CEO Capasse) He also outlined model changes: "We intend to simplify our business model" and "refocus on 2 core businesses, middle market CRE debt investing and SBA 7(a) lending." (CEO Capasse) "We intend to increase capital allocation to our small business lending platform, which we expect to represent 20% of the company's capital going forward." (CEO Capasse) He added: "we can generate fee income in lieu of net interest margin by originating for Waterfall, where we have funded $172 million year-to-date and for third parties, including through our new $1 billion flow arrangement." (CEO Capasse) "Separately, lower SBA 7(a) originations in the first quarter reflected the prioritization of capital to debt repayment" and "We anticipate that will change with the pending launch of our $158 million SBA 7(a) securitization." (CEO Capasse) "We e...

Earnings Call Insights: Morgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund (MSDL) Q1 2026 Management View "Against the backdrop of moderating base rates, improving spreads and an increasing focus on credit quality across the direct lending landscape, MSDL delivered solid performance in the first quarter," said CEO Michael Occi. "In terms of operating results, we earned net investment income of $0.47 per share as compared with $0.49 per share for the prior quarter." Occi linked the dividend reset and capital actions to a shifting rate regime, saying, "In February, we modified the dividend to $0.45 per share," and "With shares trading at a discount to NAV, share repurchases were accelerated, which was accretive." He also said the new joint venture (JV) "delivered approximately 150 basis points of incremental return relative to on-balance sheet deployment." CFO David Pessah emphasized the JV launch and intended scale: "In February, we commenced investment operations at Capstone Lending, MSDL's joint venture." He added, "Our objective will be to continue to scale the vehicle over time to approximately $700 million in assets," and "We expect a meaningful contribution to MSDL's total investment income beginning in the second quarter." Chief Investment Officer Ashwin Krishnan framed portfolio monitoring themes around software and AI: "Based on our ongoing portfolio monitoring and underwriting work, we have not seen evidence of material disruption within our portfolio companies," and "the results of this analysis continue to indicate that our software portfolio exhibits minimal near-term displacement risk." Outlook Occi described portfolio yield dynamics as stabilizing, saying, "The first quarter of 2026 marked the first quarter in the last eight in which MSDL did not experience yield compression," and "we are now seeing spreads widen and terms on new investments become more lender-friendly." Pessah reiterated the near-term income expectation from Capstone: "We expect a meaningful contribu...

Dow Jones futures: The stock market hit fresh highs this past week with U.S.-Iran news and the Trump-Xi summit in focus. Apple, Nvidia, Boeing are in buy areas.

Wall Street advanced on Friday as investors looked past ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and focused instead on the latest nonfarm payrolls report, which reinforced confidence in the broader U.S. economy. The rally was led by technology shares, helping the Nasdaq Composite climb 1.7%. The benchmark S&P 500 ( SP500 ) gained 0.8%, while the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average edged up 0.1%. On a week-to-date basis, the benchmark S&P 500 was up 2.4%. Seeking Alpha analyst Agar Capital noted that the weekend payroll data certainly helped, showing above-expected employment growth and stable unemployment, demonstrating that the U.S. economy is absorbing energy shocks and geopolitical tensions better than expected. The analyst added that the market is traveling in two parallel lanes. On the one hand, all eyes are still on the Strait of Hormuz, oil prices, and geopolitical risk. It would be absurd to think the market isn't concerned. On the other hand, the indices are reaching new highs because investors can no longer ignore the earnings and cash flows generated by companies. On a sector-by-sector basis, seven of the 11 S&P segments closed in the green this week. Technology ( XLK ) and Consumer Discretionary ( XLY ) were the strongest performers this week, with gains of 8.43% and 1.33%, respectively. Agar Capital highlighted, “Clearly, the star of the show has been technology, and more specifically, semiconductors. The stock markets have been driven above all by AMD's quarterly results and the news regarding the Intel-Apple partnership, which have given the sector a major boost. Much to my satisfaction, even some areas of software now demonstrate that the AI trade is broadening again and that the fantasy that SaaS is dead may be dormant.” At the other end of the spectrum, Energy ( XLE ) and Utilities ( XLU ) were the biggest detractors this week, with losses of 5.40% and 3.89%, respectively. Here is the sector-by-sector weekly performance breakdown: Techn...

Massive Oil Slick Spotted Off Iran's Kharg Island, Cause Unknown An apparent large oil spill spanning dozens of square miles of sea has been spotted off of Iran's main oil hub of Kharg Island, according to open source satellite imagery and reporting in both the NY Times and Reuters on Friday. The reports cite images from Copernicus's Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, and Sentinel-3 satellites taken from monitoring May 6 through 8 which show a huge grey-and-white slick extending out to the west of Kharg Island . Image source: Soar "The slick appears visually consistent with oil," said Leon Moreland, a researcher at the Conflict and Environment Observatory, to Reuters . He believes it to be covering an area of approximately 45 square km (or nearly 18 sq miles) . While it's unclear what may have caused it, or the extent of possible damage to Kharg Island infrastructure or possibly docked tankers, the island has been attacked by US aerial forces in the recent post . One regional source provides the following commentary : It could be the result of a leak. Other claims have suggested oil was pumped into the sea because storage space had run out due to the blockade . In newer images, the oil slick appeared to be moving south. Social media users expressed concern over what appeared to be an oil spill in the satellite images. “This must be dealt with quickly before the oil reaches the coasts of other Gulf states,” a Saudi influencer wrote on X, where he has more than 750,000 followers. And separately a regional monitor and expert explains the following : Synthetic aperture radar imagery shows a large surface slick emanating from the waters around Kharg Island, Iran's primary crude oil export terminal responsible for roughly 90% of the country's oil exports. At the time of detection, multiple tankers were simultaneously loading at the Kharg Island terminal. It is not yet clear whether the spill originated from a loading operation, a vessel, subsea infrastructure, or the terminal itself...

【有線新聞】房協未來十年不再興建「長者安居樂」項目，原定兩個包括長者單位的重建項目亦會重新規劃。主席凌嘉勤表示，會將長者友善設計融入在一般出租和資助出售房屋單位，更好應付居家安老需要。 「長者安居樂」推出了接近27年，目前三個項目提供880個單位，年底落成的粉嶺盛頤居亦會提供261個長者單位。房協主席凌嘉勤說，未來十年都不會有同類項目落成，「只靠我們這一類所謂長者屋提供，是不能夠解決長者住屋需求，因為你沒有辦法興建到數百萬個單位出來，所以我們一定回去問題根本，令每一個單位都有長者安居樂元素。會令成本稍為增加，但覺得增加不多，因為很多都是設計的心思，例如召喚升降機的按鈕增大，加上發光一眼望便會更清楚。」 觀塘花園大廈第二期以及筲箕灣明華大廈重建計劃，原定會提供共800個長者安居樂單位。房協表示兩個重建項目會重新規劃，不再包括長者安居樂單位。目前有大約300宗長者安居樂輪候申請。 另外，房協上年度推售的資助出售房屋項目超額認購倍數增多。凌嘉勤指，反映市民置業意願相當強烈，又指大單位需求上升。「假定我們樓面面積不變，簡單數學下單位數量一定會減少。我們可否向政府或城規會申請，讓我們多一點樓面面積，變成我們單位總數不需要減少，但是也可有單位面積大一點？」 房協去年九月起實施「富戶政策」，向二萬多個未受規管的舊租約住戶發出新租約。凌嘉勤表示，目前已經發出九千多份新租約，未有住戶拒絕接受，而餘下的今年內會完成更換，主要涉及長者戶。
