US President Donald Trump speaks at a "Champion of Coal" event at the White House in Washington, DC, on Feb. 11, 2026. Saul Loeb | AFP | Getty Images President Donald Trump on Wednesday ordered the Defense Department to purchase power from coal plants, his latest effort to revivte an industry that has struggled to compete against cheaper energy resources. Trump signed the executive order at a White House event attended by Peabody Energy CEO James Grech. The order directs the Pentagon to secure long-term power purchase agreements with coal plants for military installations. "We're going to be buying a lot of coal through the military now," Trump said. Shares of Peabody rose 4% in extended trading. The president said he also directed the Department of Energy to issue funds to keep coal plants open in West Virginia, Ohio, North Carolina and Kentucky. Trump declared coal essential to U.S. national and economic security last April. He issued several executive orders at the time that aimed boost coal production . The coal industry has been in state of decline for years as it has struggled to compete against natural gas and renewable energy. About 16% of U.S. electricity generation came from burning coal in 2023, down from 51% in 2001, according to the Energy Information Administration.

Oselote/iStock via Getty Images If you follow my articles about LuxExperience B.V. ( LUXE ), you know that the market has long underestimated the integration of MyTheresa with YNAP. And, once again, the market mispriced the sale of THE OUTNET, which I told you would be a kind of " bad good deal " for them to focus their attention solely on YOOX for the off-price category. Before the results, the stock even dipped below $7.50— roughly 0.3x sales—the same floor we saw last September, when I pointed out how cheap it looked. That's why I wasn't surprised by the double-digit upside after the bell rang. Seeking Alpha If we take a look at my first piece back in July last year, total return stands at 31%, comfortably ahead of the S&P 500 ( SP500 ) by a little over 10% in the same period. We also moved in the right direction since the September update, though we’re still trailing if you consider the December article. To be perfectly honest with you, I don't expect to beat the S&P in the short term. My thesis is built around the medium to long term, and I'm aiming to outperform over at least a two-year horizon. Still, being up already isn't anything. We got in when the story was on the bottom. But you must be wondering, what is this medium/long term? Well, I'm considering two specific timeframes for LuxExperience post-acquisition, according to management: FY 2028 (the new setup would break even, and they would stop burning cash with YNAP's business under control and the turnaround practically complete). FY 2030 (would achieve the long-term target of €4 billion in sales and an adjusted EBITDA margin between 7 and 9%). Long-term target for LUXE (Earnings Presentation) Keep in mind, there’s no meaningful long-term debt here. They’re funding operations with cash on hand (€543.6 million in Q2 FY 2026). This is important in our modeling since by FY 2030 they would likely already be generating FCF and have a cash position similar to what they have today. Remember that the sale of TH...

Instagram’s CEO dismissed the idea that users can be addicted to social media at a landmark California trial on Wednesday. “I think it’s important to differentiate between clinical addiction and problematic use,” Adam Mosseri said on the witness stand. Psychologists do not classify social media addiction as an official diagnosis. Researchers have documented the harmful consequences of compulsive use among young people, and lawmakers around the world are worried about its addictive potential. Mosseri is the first executive to testify in a series of trials in which hundreds of families and school districts have sued Meta, Snap, TikTok and YouTube, alleging the companies knowingly created addictive products that harm young people’s mental health. The initial trial, in Los Angeles, focuses on a 20-year-old identified by the initials KGM who alleges the social media platform’s addictive design features, including endless scrolling, exacerbated her depression and suicidal thoughts. KGM and two other plaintiffs are part of bellwether trials – test cases designed to gauge a jury’s reaction for both sides. Mark Lanier, the plaintiff’s lawyer, grilled Mosseri on Wednesday about whether Instagram put profits ahead of safety, as well as whether Instagram’s cosmetic filters promoted plastic surgery. Mosseri said the company tests new features that will be used by younger users before their release. “We are trying to be as safe as possible but also censor as little as possible,” he said. Some families viewed the exchange as confirming their beliefs about the harm caused by Instagram. Matthew P Bergman, founding attorney of Social Media Victims Law Center and an attorney representing the plaintiffs, said in a statement: “Adam Mosseri’s testimony under oath today revealed what families have long suspected: Instagram’s executives made a conscious decision to put growth over the safety of minors.” Mosseri has previously faced scrutiny about whether he may have dismissed internal warn...

Joining me now, we got Yahoo Finance Tech editor, Dan Howley. Dan. 00:13 Dan Yeah, Josh, this is uh basically a research kind of model that Google is showing off. uh Project Genie, you'll be able to essentially create, we'll say game-like worlds, uh using generative AI. So you type in a prompt and you'll be able to say, you know, I don't know, I'm just watching some of the screens here. 00:32 Dan Make a a a parrot fly through the rainforest or have, uh one example is a cat riding a Roomba around your house. and so you then you'd be able to just kind of control these things.

You know, obviously, Unity uh is down. uh that was uh 24% uh at one point Roblox down, uh CD Project also down, Electronic Arts down, Take 2 down. and it's not necessarily just because of Unity. It's, you know, there was obviously earnings built sorry, uh uh Genie, there were some earnings built into there, but that has been a catalyst for the overall gaming market and the question has been for quite some time, you know, where does AI fit into gaming? 01:41 Dan Some companies are using it for, you know, prepping for for early kind of concept. That makes sense. you know, you want to storyboard, you're going to say, okay, how do I want to do this? You'd still need storyboard board artists uh to actually, you know, give you more, you know, different iterations, but it it is some...

Modal Labs, a startup specializing in AI inference infrastructure, is in the process of raising a new round at a valuation of about $2.5 billion, according to four people with knowledge of the deal. Should the deal close at these terms, the funding round would more than double the company’s valuation of $1.1 billion announced less than five months ago. General Catalyst is in talks to lead the round, the people told TechCrunch. Modal’s annualized revenue run rate (ARR) is approximately $50 million, our sources said. The discussions are early, and terms could still change. Modal and General Catalyst did not respond to our requests for comment. Model is focused on optimizing inference, the process of running trained AI models to generate answers from user requests. Improving inference efficiency reduces compute costs and reduces the lag time between a user’s prompt and the AI’s response. Modal is one of the handful of inference-focused companies attracting intense investor attention now. Last week, its competitor Baseten announced a $300 million raise at a $5 billion valuation, more than doubling the $2.1 billion valuation it reached just months prior in September. Similarly, Fireworks AI, an inference cloud provider, secured $250 million at a $4 billion valuation in October. In January, the creators of the open-source inference project vLLM announced they had transitioned the tool into a VC-backed startup, Inferact, raising $150 million in seed funding led by Andreessen Horowitz at an $800 million valuation. Meanwhile, TechCrunch reported that the team behind SGLang has commercialized as RadixArk, which sources told us secured seed funding at a $400 million valuation led by Accel. Modal was co-founded by CEO Erik Bernhardsson in 2021 after he spent more than 15 years building and leading data teams at companies including Spotify and Better.com, where he was the CTO.

格隆汇2月12日｜美国非农就业人数出人意料地激增，打击了美债市场，交易员纷纷削减对美联储今年降息的押注。短期国债受创最重，两年期国债收益率上升6个基点，至3.51%左右。货币市场目前预计美联储的下次降息将发生在7月，而非此前预期的6月。美股平盘收官后，亚洲股指期货走势分化。股指期货预示日本股市周四结束假期复牌后将上涨，而澳大利亚基准股指合约则出现下跌。这些波动表明，目前美国经济的强劲抵消了市场对降低借贷成本的渴望，支撑了风险情绪。eToro的Bret Kenwell表示，投资者应该对美国就业报告表示欢迎，即便它给了美联储更多维持利率不变的空间。他指出：“如果劳动力市场确实趋于稳定，那将对经济和市场都有建设性意义。”

炒股就看 金麒麟分析师研报 ，权威，专业，及时，全面，助您挖掘潜力主题机会！ （来源：财联社） 财联社2月12日讯（编辑 夏军雄） 当地时间周三（2月11日），Meta表示，作为其大规模人工智能（AI）基础设施建设计划的一部分，公司已开始建设新的数据中心。 这座投资超过100亿美元的数据中心将位于印第安纳州莱巴嫩市（Lebanon），容量超过1吉瓦。这一电力规模足以为数十万户美国家庭供电。 Meta表示，该数据中心将同时承担公司AI相关工作负载以及核心产品业务，是其迄今规模最大的基础设施项目之一。 随着AI军备竞赛愈演愈烈，科技巨头纷纷大力建设数据中心，但这股AI基建热潮正面临越来越多来自周边社区居民的批评。批评声音包括公用事业费用上涨，以及冷却系统产生的噪音扰民等问题。 对此，Meta表示，公司将承担该数据中心全部用电成本，并在未来20年内每年向Boone REMC社区基金捐赠100万美元，以帮助居民支付能源账单，同时还将资助紧急用水补助。该数据中心还将采用闭环水系统，Meta称该系统“全年大部分时间无需用水”。 此外，Meta还表示，将为莱巴嫩市投资超过1.2亿美元用于水利基础设施建设，并升级道路、输电线路和当地公用设施。 Meta的AI建设雄心并不仅限于单个1吉瓦数据中心。去年7月，Meta首席执行官马克·扎克伯格表示，公司将在路易斯安那州建设规模庞大的Hyperion设施，并称该数据中心规模之大，足以覆盖曼哈顿的很大一部分区域，最终容量将扩展至超过5吉瓦。 上周，Meta在公布财报时表示，公司计划在2026年投入高达1350亿美元，用于AI基础设施建设。作为对比，Meta在2025年的支出为722亿美元。 Meta并非今年唯一大举投资AI基建的科技公司。谷歌在财报中表示，计划于2026年支出1800亿美元。亚马逊更是预计，今年支出将达到2000亿美元。 受资本支出大幅增加影响，微软、谷歌和亚马逊股价均在财报后大幅下滑。尽管Meta的股价一度因财报超预期而受到提振，但随后也跟着科技同行一起回落。 不过，比尔·阿克曼旗下对冲基金潘兴广场周三披露，该基金已大举建仓Meta。 据悉，潘兴广场持有20亿美元Meta股份，建仓均价为每股625美元。 该基金在年度投资者报告中表示：“我们认为，Meta当前股价低估了公司在人工智能领域的长期上行潜力，对于世界上最伟大的企业之...

monsitj/iStock via Getty Images Gold and silver futures rose sharply on Wednesday even after a stronger-than-expected U.S. jobs report that pushed up Treasury yields and the dollar index, likely making it more difficult for Federal Reserve officials to build a case for further rate cuts on the basis of labor market weakness. U.S. job growth accelerated in January, adding 130K jobs compared to forecasts for a gain of 55K, and the unemployment rate ticked down to 4.3%, signaling resilience in the labor market that could give the Federal Reserve room to hold rates steady while it monitors inflation. " What today's price action in gold and silver markets suggests is that underlying supply and demand fundamentals - namely safe-haven demand, hoarding, and central bank buying of gold - remain firmly in place," Kitco analyst Jim Wyckoff said in a note. January's gold price swings highlighted volatility, not weakness, while "strong investment demand, central bank buying and improving miner fundamentals continue to support a sustainable long-term bull market in 2026 and beyond," Van Eck portfolio manager Imaru Casanova said in an analysis. U.S. gold and silver futures gained for the fifth time in seven sessions, with front-month Comex gold ( XAUUSD:CUR ) for February delivery closing +1.3% to $5,071.60/oz, and front-month Comex February silver ( XAGUSD:CUR ) finishing +4.4% to $83.754/oz.

Sanae Takaichi is not only Japan’s first female prime minister, but has secured an election victory of historic proportions, with unprecedented potential for constitutional revision. A landslide haul of 316 out of 465 seats in the lower house has handed her ruling Liberal Democratic Party the first two-thirds parliamentary supermajority for a single party since World War II. Its right-wing coalition partner, the Japan Innovation Party, gained a further 36 seats. This has raised concerns that Takaichi may seek to change the country’s pacifist constitution. Beijing sees such an attempt as a threat to regional stability, to which it is likely to react strongly. Takaichi’s election campaign centred on plans to stimulate a flagging economy, including a two-year halt to a food tax, and further enhance Japan’s security framework amid a dispute with China. Advertisement Beijing has voiced opposition to Japan’s military spending plans, with relations having plunged after Takaichi suggested that Japan could intervene in the event of a conflict over Taiwan – a remark she later categorised as hypothetical but did not retract. Advertisement Takaichi’s conservative agenda may help with Japan’s much-needed economic reforms. But her anti-immigration instincts will do nothing for an ageing society that needs foreign labour to help with tasks locals can’t or won’t do.

美联储理事米兰表示，1月就业数据出人意料的强劲表现并不意味着政策制定者应该暂停进一步降息。米兰表示，减少商业监管等计划中的供给侧改革，以及住房通胀的预期放缓，将为政策制定者继续降低基准利率扫清障碍。自9月加入美联储理事会以来，米兰在每次政策会议上都持反对意见，他主张的降息幅度大于其他美联储官员准备支持的幅度。(新浪财经)

Earnings Call Insights: Criteo S.A. (CRTO) Q4 2025 Management View CEO Michael Komasinski stated that "2025 unfolded a bit differently than we had anticipated. Even so, we delivered solid execution and made good progress against our strategy, closing the year with momentum across our key initiatives." He emphasized aligning the company around commerce intelligence and AI decisioning, simplifying the business to scale as a commerce AI platform, and highlighted Criteo's "unique commerce data foundation and AI-driven performance engine" with visibility into over $1 trillion in e-commerce transactions annually and reach across more than 3 billion daily active users. Komasinski outlined three main strategic priorities: leading in agentic commerce with AI assistants, scaling the AI-powered performance engine, and reinforcing Retail Media leadership. He revealed development of an Agentic Commerce Recommendation Service, with testing showing "an average uplift of 60% in prioritizing the products most likely to be purchased" and advanced partnerships underway. The CEO noted, "Social continues to scale with double-digit sequential growth in every quarter of 2025, supported by strong momentum with Meta and expanding engagement with additional partners." He further highlighted the full self-service launch of GO at the end of Q1 and the expansion of auction-based display and shoppable video as growth drivers. CFO Sarah Glickman reported, "We delivered record results in 2025 with strong margins and robust cash flow generation." She disclosed, "Revenue was $1.9 billion, and Contribution ex-TAC grew 3.5% at constant currency to $1.2 billion... We delivered a strong adjusted EBITDA margin of 35%." Glickman also noted free cash flow of $211 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $4.62 for 2025. Outlook Glickman stated, "For 2026, we expect Contribution ex-TAC to be flat to up to 2% at constant currency. As you know, we anticipate low overall growth this year due to Retail Media client s...

美國總統特朗普近日矛頭直指即將通車、連接美國密歇根州與加拿大安大略省的「戈迪·豪國際大橋」，威脅將阻止其通車，並指美國要擁有「至少一半」的所有權及收益。此舉引發美加輿論譁然，國際媒體分析指此事件反映特朗普政府的談判策略及其對盟友的態度，令加拿大陷入外交與經濟的兩難局面。 事件起因：特朗普突發文威脅 指控加拿大「數十年不公平」 據新華社編輯記者旗下公眾號「牛彈琴」評論文章，特朗普於2月9日下午在社交平台發表長文，內容重點包括指控加拿大數十年來對美國不公；批評前總統奧巴馬豁免大橋項目使用美國鋼鐵的規定；不滿安大略省因關稅報復而禁售美國酒類產品；警告加拿大總理卡尼與中國達成貿易協議將令加國「不堪重負」。文章又批評特朗普荒誕地指稱中國會「取消加拿大所有冰球比賽及斯坦利盃」。特朗普在帖文末威脅，若加拿大不「公平、尊重」對待美國，將不允許大橋通車，並要求立即談判，讓美國獲取至少一半大橋所有權。 CNN事實核查：特朗普多項指控與事實不符 然而，多項媒體的事實核查顯示，特朗普的指控與既有事實多有出入。美國有線電視新聞網CNN報道指出，特朗普稱大橋「兩側均屬加拿大」且「幾乎未使用美國產品」的說法不準確。根據2012年美加協議，大橋由加拿大政府全額出資（約40至60億美元），但所有權與監管權由密歇根州與加拿大政府共同擁有。通行費收入將先用以償還加拿大墊付的建造成本，其後收益由雙方平分。此外，大橋建設中確實使用了美國鋼鐵與工人。 CNN還指出，特朗普在2017年曾與時任加拿大總理杜魯多發表聯合聲明，將該橋稱為連接兩國的「重要經濟紐帶」並推動其「盡快建成」，與其現時立場矛盾。 加方回應：嘗試澄清誤解 但美方態度強硬 面對特朗普的威脅，加拿大總理卡尼表示已與特朗普通話，試圖澄清誤解，強調大橋是「兩國合作的典範」。但白宮發言人萊維特隨後聲明，特朗普在通話中「非常明確」地重申其要求，並認為當前安排「不可接受」。 美國新聞網站 AXIOS 的報道進一步分析，特朗普的貿易代表格里爾在霍士財經節目中直言，由於美國經濟規模遠大於加拿大（約29萬億美元對1-2萬億美元），美國有權確保從大橋及其經濟活動中獲得「公平份額」。這被視為「實力即話語權」的談判邏輯。 潛在動機：為貿易談判鋪路 或轉移國內焦點 多方分析認為，特朗普此番舉動的動機可能不止於大橋本身。「牛彈琴」分析指出，此舉是特朗普對加拿大的一系列「敲打...

美元通常会在经济或地缘政治动荡的时期走强。但到了2026年，不确定性和政局纷乱大都来自美国内部。更有甚者，总统唐纳德·特朗普竟然还对由此引发的美元贬值竖起了大拇指。过去一年，该国货币对一个外币篮子整体损失了9%，在1月更是触及2022年3月以来的最低位。不仅如此，下行压力似乎并没有要消散的迹象。 美元走软会对美国乃至全球经济都造成连锁冲击。在美国，这意味着进口商品价格上涨，导致国内制造商和消费者购买成本上升。与此同时，该国出口对海外消费者的吸引力则随之提高。 本文将分析美元下跌的方方面面，以及如果它继续承压可能出现哪些后果。 美元为何走弱？ 拖累美元走低的因素不止一种。但分析人士指出，特朗普政府难以预测的外交政策，包括他本人时断时续夺取格陵兰的表态和悍然出兵抓走委内瑞拉总统的行动，都损害着美元在不确定时期充当避风港的正常作用。特朗普对美联储独立性的反复攻击也打压了美元。美国央行进一步降息的可能性也起到了同样的作用。低利率会拉低美元，因为投资者将另寻他处追逐更高的回报。 另一方面，特朗普政府和许多分析人士辩称，美元遭到了高估，而近期的疲软以及未来可能持续贬值的前景是世界各国早该预料到的后果。特朗普在第一个总统任期内就强调，美元作为全球化的基石几十年如一日地被世界上其他国家人为推高。这种有关汇率的控诉至少在过去二十年里一直层出不穷。亚洲国家经常因压低本货而备受抨击，而欧洲官员也曾出人意料地坦言，他们不希望欧元超过某些特定水平。 美国商务部长霍华德·卢特尼克2月10日表示，美元目前的水平可能更接近应有之义。 美元在全球经济中扮演什么角色？ 美元可以说是最接近全球货币的存在。它是国际金融的基石，也是比任何其它货币更常用于国际交易的首选支付手段。美国还将美元作为外交政策工具，例如在俄乌冲突之际，华盛顿大幅限制了该国使用美元进行交易的能力。 对美元的信心发生了怎样的变化？ 分析人士指出，美元走弱之忧直指特朗普政府执政方式的核心。主导货币需要一个强健的民主体系，其中必不可少的是法治、独立的中央银行、自由公正的选举以及新闻自由。特朗普第二个任期对这些基本原则都进行了考验。特朗普曾多次表示希望将美联储主席杰罗姆·鲍威尔解职，他的司法部还对美联储总部大楼的翻修工程展开刑事调查，甚至一些共和党议员都认为明显带有政治动机。他也反复施压美联储降息，并明确表示希望自己提名的鲍威尔接班人凯文·沃...

Grab Holdings Ltd. predicted full-year revenue that trailed estimates, a sign of strain in a Southeast Asian ride-hailing and food-delivery market pressured by weaker consumer sentiment. Sales will be $4.04 billion to $4.1 billion this year, the Singapore-based company said in a statement . Analysts predicted roughly $4.13 billion on average. While fourth-quarter revenue missed projections, Grab posted its first annual net profit in 2025, defying analysts’ forecasts. The stock fell more than 7% in late US trading after the report was released. Already, it had declined roughly 35% from a peak last September. After years of spending to gain market share in Southeast Asia, Grab still faces tough competition from rivals such as GoTo Group . The company is attracting users with products such as shared rides and deliveries in a sluggish economy, while curtailing a once-frenetic pace of expansion. Grab also issued new forecasts until 2028, projecting group revenue to grow at a 20% compounded annual rate. “We believe, like previous practice, the first set of full year guidance given at the beginning of the year could prove to be conservative,” Citigroup analyst Alicia Yap said in a note on Thursday. As part of the quarterly report, Grab announced plans to buy back as much as $500 million of stock. The move — its second such program — seeks to reward investors and take advantage of the cheaper share price. Grab, backed by Uber Technologies Inc. , has seen growth slow dramatically from triple-digit rates in years past as it takes steps to focus on profitability. An increased customer base has left Grab with less room for user gains, prompting it to introduce novel offerings to entice consumers who are less willing to hail a ride or get food delivered to their door in a challenging economy. In a bid to alleviate the cut-throat competition, Grab has been exploring a combination with Jakarta-based GoTo. The yearslong effort has been delayed by regulatory scrutiny as well as diff...

Shopify (NASDAQ:SHOP), an e-commerce platform for online stores, closed Wednesday at $118.71, down 6.70%. Shares sold off during the regular session after an initial spike on strong Q4 results, upbeat revenue guidance, and a new buyback. Investors are watching how AI-driven commerce initiatives support future growth and margins. Trading volume reached 52.3 million shares, about 450% above its three-month average of 9.5 million shares. Shopify IPO'd in 2015 and has grown 6,883% since going public. How the markets moved today S&P 500 slipped 0.03% to 6,940, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.16% to 23,066. Fellow e-commerce platform, Wix.com, closed at $72.10, down 4.31%, as investors weigh AI competition and digital commerce growth expectations across the group. What this means for investors Shopify reported earnings on Wednesday morning, growing sales and free cash flow (FCF) by 30% and 26% in 2026, and easily beat Wall Street’s Q4 estimates. However, with the shares trading at 82 times FCF, Shopify was priced for near-perfect results, and guidance for roughly 32% sales growth in Q1 wasn’t an optimistic enough outlook. Pricey or not, Shopify looks stronger than ever to me -- and is shifting to AI e-commerce fluidly. Orders from AI search rose 15 times compared to January 2025 levels. Meanwhile, President Harley Finkelstein explained, Shopify’s AI-powered assistant, Sidekick, “generated almost 4,000 custom apps, created over 29,000 automations with Shopify Flow, built almost 355,000 task lists and edited over 1.2 million photos.” So far, Shopify looks more like the disruptor than the disruptee with AI.
