North Sea Oil Fight Escalates As Starmer Cites Legal Limits Authored by Mauricio Alencar via City A.M., Sir Keir Starmer has said he doesn’t hold legal powers to approve fresh exploration of North Sea oil and gas fields, with the decision falling in the hands of net zero secretary Ed Miliband. Starmer said current legislation determined that a quasi-judicial decision relating to cases for more gas extraction at Shell’s Jackdaw site and Equinor’s Rosebank oil field was left to Miliband . The Prime Minister reiterated the government’s commitment to expanding renewable energy. He said the introduction of fresh legislation would “slow the process down” and accused the leader of the opposition, Kemi Badenoch, of failing to know about the law before raising questions in Parliament. “Its absolutely clear that the quasi judicial [process] lies with secretary of state,” Starmer said. “In the last four weeks, because we are on a fossil fuel rollercoaster , everyone is being held to ransom." He added: “The most important thing to get energy security is to make sure we de-escalate the war.” Starmer backed by Davey Scottish courts ruled government approvals for more extraction at each field as unlawful on environmental grounds. The power now falls on the energy secretary to make a decision while considering economic and environmental reasons for projects. Badenoch accused Starmer of “hiding behind legal process every time” though Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey, who served as the energy secretary in the coalition government, said he agreed with the Prime Minister. The Tory leader heckled Davey to “stop sucking up”. She also shouted out “you can change the law” and repeated the word “weak” several times. Starmer is facing growing pressure to remove restrictions on North Sea oil and gas projects from officials working across clean energy. Jurgen Maier, who oversees Great British Energy, the publicly owned investment company, said in a post on LinkedIn that more drilling in the re...

Deutsche Bank believes AtaiBeckley is well-positioned to be a winner in the "Psychedelic Renaissance." The bank initiated coverage on the drug developer with a buy rating and a $12 price target, which indicates a more than 250% gain from Friday's close. Psychedelic therapies have grown in popularity in recent years, particularly as a mental health treatment. Drugs like MDMA , ketamine and psilocybin have been in clinical trials to see if they can be used to address mental health conditions that are resistant to other treatments. "Several psychedelic companies have emerged as bona fide drug developers, attracting attention from healthcare/biotech investors who usually invest in conventional therapeutics," wrote Deutsche Bank analyst David Hoang in a Thursday note. "We count ATAI among these trailblazers, and believe it will become a leader in the nascent field of psychedelic medicine for mental health conditions." ATAI YTD mountain ATAI year-to-date chart. AtaiBeckley has two key drugs it's developing for treatment-resistant depression: BPL-003, an intranasal tryptamine derivative, and VLS-01, a buccal tryptamine derivative. Hoang models the potential sales of these drugs by using Johnson & Johnson's Spravato, an intranasal ketamine derivative first approved to address treatment-resistant depression in 2019 , as a case study. The drug is now bringing in around $2 billion in annualized sales, and Hoang noted that consensus estimates suggest peak sales will be around $4 billion. Using that example, Hoang thinks BLP-003 U.S. sales could peak at $4 billion and VLS-01 at $2 billion. He added another drug by the company — EMP-01, an oral MDMA derivative used to treat seasonal affective disorder — could have peak sales of $1 billion. While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration may have been skeptical of psychedelic therapies in the past, Hoang said that friction has eased. "Upon FDA approval, a psychedelic drug is expected to undergo [Drug Enforcement Administration] (feder...

Olivier Le Moal/iStock via Getty Images Introduction: Since Nov. 2025, the market has been mostly trading in a tight range between S&P 500 ( SPX ) levels 6600 and 6950. However, everything changed recently with the start of the full-blown Iran war. This has moved the market closer to SPX6500 rather than 7000. The prices of oil and gas have shot up and have been very volatile. Needless to say, there is a lot of uncertainty in the market, despite some indications of negotiations between the U.S. and Iran. It is too early to say how long the hostilities will last. The longer it drags, the more pain is expected for the energy prices, inflation, and the world economy. So, right now, nothing else seems to matter to the stock market. Higher energy prices will also likely tie the hands of the Fed, and any further interest-rate cuts may be off the table for now. All other worries of the market have been put on the back burner for now, but surely they will come back as soon as the dust from the war settles. You can see the current odds of the Fed's next rate cut here on the CME FedWatchTool website. All that being said, it is always hard to find anything that has both the quality and the low valuation, so buying the best of the income investments regularly in small quantities is the key. As always, investors have to tread carefully amid all the uncertainties. Why CEFs? The broader market, as represented by the S&P500, provides a dismal level of yield of less than 1.10%. Income investors and retirees can't survive on that level of income unless they have a very large pool of capital. Also, the method of raising income by selling shares is generally very stressful and full of pitfalls, and that's why it is not recommended. Alternatively, one can find solid blue-chip individual dividend stocks that pay much higher dividends than the S&P 500. They can also provide market-matching growth on a longer-term basis. To identify such stocks, we also publish a monthly article on the '5 B...

JHVEPhoto/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Shares of Entergy ( ETR ) have been an excellent performer over the past year, gaining over 30%. The market environment has been generally favorable for utilities as investors have grown excited about potential demand from data centers, leading to a meaningful cap-ex cycle. Entergy is a clear beneficiary of this, given construction plans in its territory, as well as benefiting from demand associated with US energy exports. These factors led to my upgrading of shares to a “buy” in December . This call has played out well, with the stock up 19% since then. With updated financials and a new data center announcement, now is a good time to revisit shares to see if investors should take profits or continue to buy here. Seeking Alpha Meta Deal Reduces Risk Associated With Growth Plans Entergy shares soared 7% on Friday to reach $110 after Meta ( META ) announced a deal to pay for seven new natural gas plants to provide 5.2 gigawatts (“GW”) to provide power to its massive data center in Louisiana. With this rally, shares are ~$110; when I upgraded them to a buy, I was targeting $112 by 2028, so this news has pulled forward much of the upside I was anticipating. When I last covered Entergy, I highlighted the Meta data center as one of the key growth drivers for the company. Under the terms of this deal, Meta is underwriting the costs to provide power to its facility. Beyond this, Meta is making $260 million of contributions to other Entergy programs that aim to provide power and improve efficiency for its most vulnerable customers. It is also providing support for incremental solar capacity as well as agreeing to consider potential development of nuclear power. This framework was enabled by the state’s updated regulatory framework, which aims to support large-scale projects. This provides several key positives for Entergy. First, one risk of building out infrastructure for anticipated demand is that the demand may not materialize. ...

Haas driver lucky to escape 190mph crash with bruising Leading Formula One figures request a safety review Drivers and leading figures within Formula One have called for urgent action given their serious concern over the potential dangers now inherent in the sport after Britain’s Oliver Bearman suffered a huge accident at the Japanese Grand Prix. The crash, caused by cars coming at one another at enormously different speeds, was described by Bearman as “scary” and by his team principal as a “lucky escape”. The race was ultimately by Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli, the 19-year-old in the process becoming the youngest driver to lead the world championship. Continue reading...

LindaJoHeilman As the calendar turns from March to April, a holiday-shortened week still delivers a diverse set of earnings with the potential to offer fresh directional cues. Consumer and brand momentum will be in focus with NIKE, Inc.

Energy and industrial signals will come from Constellation Energy Corporation ( CEG ), while tech and digital manufacturing names like Nano Dimension ( NNDM ). Crypto-linked plays, including Bitfarms ( BITF ) and Bit Digital ( BTBT ), could reflect sentiment shifts in digital assets. Below is a rundown of major quarterly updates anticipated in the week of March 30 to April 3: Monday, March 30 Virgin Galactic Holdings ( SPCE ) Virgin Galactic Holdings ( SPCE ) is set to report FQ4 results after Monday’s close, with sentiment remaining cautious.

对于百奥家庭互动而言，2025年是研发与蓄力的一年，而2026年则是新品落地与业绩攻坚的一年 2025年，中国游戏行业仍处于精品化研发与赛道细分化的深度调整期。 市场实际销售收入和用户规模再创历史新高的背后，是行业向质量提升转型的增长逻辑。一方面，供给侧版号发放常态化推动优质新品持续落地。另一方面，需求侧玩家游戏时长稳步延长、付费意愿持续提升。 在这一转型过程中，行业新增长极的轮廓愈发清晰， 女性向、精品卡牌等细分赛道凭借高速增长脱颖而出，成为拉动行业增长的核心引擎 。 譬如，《2025年女性向游戏调研报告》显示，2024年中国女性向游戏市场规模已达80亿元，同比激增124.1%，增速领跑行业平均水平，且2025年延续这一高增势头。与此同时，女性玩家的需求边界也不断突破传统恋爱养成模式，对微恐叙事、社交竞技等新颖玩法的接受度与付费意愿显著增强。 而热门游戏的IP热度持续催热卡牌周边经济，卡牌交易火爆又进一步反哺游戏IP的生命力，形成游戏赋能卡牌、卡牌反哺游戏的良性循环。《2025闲鱼卡牌年度报告》指出，2025年前三季度仅闲鱼平台的卡牌交易额便同比增长21%，其中国潮IP卡牌交易增速同比暴涨332%。 在此行业背景下，百奥家庭互动近日发布2025年财报，全年实现营收6.1亿元人民币，同比增长11.9%。 这里值得一提的是，尽管2025年国内游戏市场看似行业回暖，整体营收同比增长7.68%，但市场分化极为明显，多数厂商营收增长实际上是依赖新品上线拉动，纯靠存量经典产品维持甚至实现增长的厂商寥寥无几。 而百奥家庭互动在暂无新品营收贡献、持续加码研发投入的背景下，依旧稳住营收大盘并实现增长，可以说是跳出行业内老品衰减、营收承压的普遍困境。这不仅是公司经典IP长线运营能力的直接印证，更为新品研发提供扎实的现金流支撑，也让后续业绩反转的底气更足。 更具看点的，是公司旗下两款重磅新品完成关键布局，《夜幕之下》和《乱涂彩世界》均已完成版号获取且已完成多轮测试，计划2026年年内正式上线 。 随着两款新品上线节奏明确，叠加经典IP的稳定贡献，百奥家庭互动业绩拐点的预期愈发明确，也进一步勾勒出其未来的增长潜力。 锚定女性向高增赛道，《夜幕之下》打造差异化竞争力 透过财报，可以发现最大的亮点之一，是百奥家庭互动即将于2026年内上线的《夜幕之下》 。 随着当前女性向游戏赛道已从早期的甜...

As homeownership drifts further out of reach, governments are looking for new ways to help first-time buyers come up with the money. In Australia, economist Saul Eslake argues that letting buyers tap retirement savings or reduce down payments only puts more upward pressure on prices. In Singapore, economist Sumit Agarwal points to a very different system: mandatory savings there can be used for housing, but steep taxes discourage buying second and third homes. Through the experiences of first-time buyers Jordan Davies in Melbourne and Jeff Chie in Singapore, the story explores whether easier access to capital really helps people buy homes or simply makes housing even more expensive.

据伊朗伊斯兰共和国广播电视台29日报道，伊朗武装部队哈塔姆安比亚中央总部发言人当天发表声明警告说，美国总统特朗普关于在伊朗开展地面行动的威胁只会将美军“送入囚禁和死亡的深渊”。 声明说，针对特朗普最近多次威胁对伊朗发动地面行动以及占领伊朗部分岛屿，伊朗军方已做好应战准备。“波斯湾的鲨鱼正等待美国军人。”特朗普的错误决策将导致美军“陷入死亡泥潭”。 据美国媒体近日报道，五角大楼正在为在伊朗开展“为期数周的地面行动”做准备。目前尚不清楚特朗普会在多大程度上批准五角大楼的行动计划。如果他“选择升级行动”，这将标志着战争进入“危险的新阶段”。(新华社)

这周，我见客户。很多人的第一个问题是，中东资金有没有来香港？ 伊朗战争扑朔迷离加上港股深度调整，让投资者特别关注任何可能促进港股困境反转的消息。 从新闻报道来看，3 月以来，沙特主权财富基金（PIF）宣布在中环增设亚太总部，并注资 10 亿美元成立专项科技直投基金；阿联酋穆巴达拉投资公司（Mubadala）领衔的财团，以基石投资者身份大笔认购了洲际航天科技 IPO。香港投资推广署，在 3 月底说，过去两年香港新增了 680 家家族办公室。其中相当比例来自中东王室或富裕家庭。 然而，中东资金进入香港，是个既真也伪的判断。 确实有资金3月流入香港 首先可以明确的是，资金进入香港的痕迹在金融数据中清晰可见。最直接的证据不在新闻头条，而在港元利率与美元利率的“背离”中。 根据 2026 年 3 月的最新数据，在美联储由于通胀压力和战争预期而维持3.5%—3.75% 高利率的背景下，港元利率并未被动跟随，反而出现了明显的下行。1个月HIBOR从3月初的2.36% 逆势下探至1.95% 左右。这种“美高港低”的利差倒挂，只能解释为非季节性的大规模外部增量资金涌入了香港银行系统，导致本地流动性严重过剩。 2026年Q1，Hibor与Sofr走势背离▼ 与此同时，港币和美元的汇率也经历了有趣的波动。港币汇率在三月多次冲到7.8附近，尽管没有达到7.75的强方兑换保证区间。但这个汇率表现，明显强于2025年下半年的弱势。 港币和美元的近期汇率波动▼ 这种资金流动的“物理痕迹”，验证了确实有资金进入香港。在战争预期紊乱的当下，香港是一个避险港，适合中东资本。 确实有资金离开中东 本土借贷成本攀升。为对冲地缘风险引发的通胀，中东各央行维持高位利率。3月下旬，沙特 3个月 SIBOR 升至 4.85% 以上，为了维持锚定美元的联系汇率制度。但融资成本上升明显压制了本土资产的短期吸引力。 中东地区货币汇率波动▼ 中东的资金进入香港？ 我们同时观察到，资金离开中东，进入香港。但时间上的先后，不意味着逻辑上因果。我们的猜测如下： 伊朗战争给中东局势带来巨大不确定性。原先配置在中东的部分资金，离开中东，选择香港。但这些资金不一定全部是中东本地资本，更可能是全球配置的资本。 相比中东资本进入香港，更准确的表述，可能是全球配置资金离开中东，进入香港。 石油美元（Petrodollars）本质上是一种“...
