Can talking about their problems help men forge closer relationships – or is there another way? Josh Halliday reports Josh Halliday is 37, and not short of friends. There are his two closest mates, and then the big group who meet up for weekends away.

Can talking about their problems help men forge closer relationships – or is there another way? Josh Halliday reports Josh Halliday is 37, and not short of friends. There are his two closest mates, and then the big group who meet up for weekends away. But recently the Guardian’s north of England editor has noticed something. “My relationship with my two closest friends, who I’ve been friends with now for 15-16 years, has been fairly surface level, to be honest – 90% of our chat is probably football-related, always with a drink in hand. If you asked me to name their immediate family, I wouldn’t be able to do it. And I think that’s quite shocking really.” Continue reading...

Chinese technology stocks in Hong Kong are poised for their worst month in two years, weighed by weak earnings and a lack of buying by mainland investors. The Hang Seng Tech Index has dropped 10% in February, set for the biggest monthly decline since January 2024. The gauge is now deep in a bear market, having tumbled nearly 23% from an October high. Sentiment toward China’s Internet giants has cooled amid concerns over valuations and rising competition that’s eroding corporate bottom line. Meanwhile, investors are increasingly turning to a wave of new listings by chipmakers and AI startups for exposure to pure AI plays , a rotation that’s hurting China’s Big Tech stocks. “The market is shifting from growth-at-all-cost to profitability and cash flow — punishing unprofitable or weak-margin names,” said Ravi Wong , first vice president at Yan Yun Family Office (HK) Ltd. The index is facing earnings concerns due to AI investment drag and cost pressure, as well as intensified competition as incremental growth is harder, he said. The HSTECH gauge eked out gains on Friday after a three-day slide of about 5%. The sluggish performance in Chinese technology stocks is a contrast to the broader Asia, where the MSCI’s regional benchmark is set for the best February performance since the inception of the index in 1998. Tech stocks are also losing support from mainland investors, who had earlier piled into the country’s tech champions. They sold HK$7.4 billion ($946 million) worth of stocks traded in Hong Kong on Thursday, adding to the HK$4 billion of such sales the previous day and marking the heaviest outflow since a record in late August. Baidu Inc. is among the biggest decliners on the Hang Seng Tech gauge this month, losing more than 19%. The stock fluctuated on Friday after the firm reported another quarterly drop in revenue amid weakness in its core advertising and AI businesses. Investors will be watching for earnings from JD.com Inc. and Bilibili Inc. due next week for ...
