The recent incident that saw a routine pond-cleaning operation go horribly wrong and kill more than 110 fish at a public housing estate in Tseung Kwan O was more than a misadventure. To many animal lovers and rights activists, it amounts to a tragic case of unlawful killing that highlights the troubling gaps in respect for living beings in our advanced society. The sorry episode came to light after images of dozens of colourful koi and other species lying dead on a wet brick pavement at King Lam Estate went viral last week. The fish apparently died after a cleaning contractor temporarily transferred them to several containers with inadequate aeration. Some animal groups rushed to the scene and managed to stabilise the surviving fish and relocate them to nearby ponds. The police later launched an investigation and arrested a female work supervisor for alleged animal cruelty. Under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Ordinance, those found responsible for causing unnecessary suffering to animals face a maximum penalty of three years in prison and a fine of HK$200,000 (US$25,600). Advertisement Whether the incident amounts to a violation under the law is ultimately a matter for the courts to decide. But the mishap reflects a general lack of awareness and commitment to animal protection among some sectors and the authorities supervising them. It does not take an animal expert to tell that fish taken out of water cannot survive long. Public and subsidised housing estates with gardens and fish ponds are home to many species that form part of the urban ecosystem. The fish that died in the cleaning exercise were like residents plucked out of their long-time habitat when the contractor drained the pond but failed to take adequate measures to ensure they could breathe. From pets abandoned after festivals to stray animals mistreated on the streets, acts of casual neglect remain disturbingly common. These are not merely isolated lapses, but evidence of inadequacies in public a...

New York, Jan 31, 2026, 17:45 (ET) — Market closed Micron closed sharply lower Friday following a volatile session and heavy trading volume Investors are balancing rising memory prices with lofty expectations for AI-related hardware Next week’s slate includes megacap earnings and crucial U.S. labor data that could shift chip sector sentiment Micron Technology dropped $20.91, or 4.8%, closing Friday at $414.88, after the shares swung between $455.50 and $407.13 on heavy volume exceeding 50 million shares. In late after-hours trading, the stock rebounded around 1.75% to $422.13. (Yahoo Finance) The pullback sets a jittery tone for Monday’s open. Investors face a packed week of earnings from Alphabet, Amazon, and Advanced Micro Devices, following Microsoft’s cautionary note on the pace of returns from heavy AI spending. “The onus is going to be on them to deliver,” said Jim Baird of Plante Moran Financial Advisors. Sid Vaidya at TD Wealth added that AI infrastructure capex “will not see any letup.” (Reuters) This dynamic is crucial for Micron, positioned upstream of data-center construction. While software stocks have stumbled, chip and storage companies are emerging as clearer beneficiaries of the AI boom. Memory players like SanDisk and Western Digital have seen notable gains in January, according to a Reuters report. (Reuters) Signs of demand are emerging among customers—and in profit margins. Apple CEO Tim Cook noted the company continues to see “market pricing for memory increasing significantly.” SK hynix reported that PC and mobile clients are “adjusting purchase volumes” following a sharp rise in memory chip prices. Samsung Electronics cautioned that expansion will stay limited through 2026 and 2027. Meanwhile, research firms have highlighted weaker outlooks for PCs and smartphones as costs rise.

A five-year-old boy and his father must be released by Tuesday from the Texas centre where they have been held after being detained by immigration officers in Minnesota, a federal judge ordered Saturday in a ruling that harshly criticised US President Donald Trump’s administration’s approach to enforcement. Images of Liam Conejo Ramos, with a bunny hat and Spider-Man backpack being surrounded by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in the Minneapolis suburb of Columbia Heights on January 20, sparked even more outcry about the administration’s immigration crackdown in Minnesota. It also led to a protest at the Texas family detention centre and a visit by two Texas Democratic members of Congress. Advertisement US District Judge Fred Biery, who sits in San Antonio and was appointed by former Democratic president Bill Clinton, said in his ruling that “the case has its genesis in the ill-conceived and incompetently implemented government pursuit of daily deportation quotas, apparently even if it requires traumatising children”. Biery had previously ruled that the boy and his father, Adrian Conejo Arias, could not be removed from the US, at least for now. People hold signs in reference to five-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos during an anti-ICE protest in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on January 23. Photo: AFP In his order on Saturday, Biery said “apparent also is the government’s ignorance of an American historical document called the Declaration of Independence”, suggesting the Trump administration’s actions echo those that then author and future president Thomas Jefferson enumerated as grievances against England’s King George.

格隆汇2月1日｜据彭博援引知情人士透露，Alphabet Inc.旗下的自动驾驶部门Waymo寻求在一轮融资中按将近1100亿美元估值筹集约160亿美元。谷歌母公司Alphabet将向这家自动驾驶出租车(Robotaxi)公司提供约130亿美元，其余部分将来自其他投资者，包括新加入的红杉资本(Sequoia Capital)、DST Global和Dragoneer Investment Group。知情人士透露，Waymo可能会在2月份完成这轮融资。2024年10月份，该公司按超过450亿美元估值进行了最近一轮融资。

据美国联邦通信委员会备案文件显示，埃隆・马斯克旗下的SpaceX计划发射由 100 万颗卫星组成的卫星星座，这些卫星将绕地运行，并利用 太阳能 为人工智能数据中心提供电力。 这份于上周五提交的备案文件，发布于路透社独家报道的次日。此前报道，SpaceX正与马斯克旗下的人工智能公司 xAI 商讨合并事宜，为计划于今年进行的重磅首次公开发行做准备。当前，马斯克正与谷歌、Meta、OpenAI等科技企业展开日趋白热化的人工智能领域竞争，争夺行业主导地位，而此次合并将为SpaceX推进数据中心入轨计划注入全新动力。 数据中心是人工智能产业的实体基础设施，需要消耗海量电力。 美联邦通信委员会的备案文件中称：“这些卫星可直接利用近乎持续不间断的太阳能，运营与维护成本极低，不仅能实现成本和能源利用效率的突破性提升，还能大幅降低地面数据中心带来的环境影响。” 马斯克的这一计划，需获得美国电信监管机构的批准才能推进。 目前全球在轨卫星数量仅约 1.5 万颗，SpaceX实际发射 100 万颗卫星的可能性较低。卫星运营商为获得设计层面的灵活性，有时会申请远超其实际部署计划的卫星发射数量；该公司此前部署星链卫星系统前，也曾申请 4.2 万颗星链卫星的发射批准，其持续扩张的星链网络目前在轨卫星约有 9500 颗。 SpaceX的这一申请，在很大程度上押注于其正在研发的下一代可回收火箭 “星舰” 能够实现成本降低。 该公司表示：“所幸，‘星舰’这类全可回收运载火箭的研发取得进展，若实现常态化发射，该火箭每年可将数百万吨载荷送入轨道。这意味着，与地面设施建设相比，轨道数据处理能力有望达到前所未有的规模和建设速度，同时对环境的影响也将大幅降低。” 自 2023 年以来，“星舰”火箭已完成 11 次试射。马斯克预计，这款火箭将于今年实现首次有效载荷入轨，而该火箭对于搭载性能更先进的卫星、拓展星链网络而言至关重要。 责任编辑：丁文武

Key Points Constellation Energy is a leading producer of carbon-free electricity. The company has secured long-term power purchase agreements with major hyperscalers like Microsoft and Meta Platforms. It recently expanded its capacity through a $26.6 billion acquisition of Calpine Corp. 10 stocks we like better than Constellation Energy › Artificial intelligence (AI) stocks have surged over the past couple of years, and the growing AI build-out has some investors wary about the massive capital expenditures hyperscalers are planning. For investors seeking exposure to AI's growth outside of major technology companies, utility providers like Constellation Energy (NASDAQ: CEG) offer upside potential that will benefit from this build-out. Here's how. Constellation Energy has scored some big deals with hyperscalers Hyperscalers are spending big bucks to expand their data center footprints. These data centers, designed specifically for artificial intelligence, consume significantly more energy than traditional data centers. These data centers use graphics processing units, which generate a massive amount of heat -- and require cooling -- and consume more electricity than the central processing units of previous data centers.

Britain's Josh Kelly put on a slick and brave performance to beat Bakhram Murtazaliev and win the IBF light-middleweight title by majority decision in Newcastle. It was a trademark Kelly display as he danced around the ring, displaying devastating speed and high ring IQ - knowing when to engage and when to get on his heels. Both fighters hit the canvas with Murtazaliev going down in the fourth and Kelly in the ninth. The Briton went down a further two times late in the fight, but both were ruled as slips. Two judges scored the bout 115-111 and 114-113 in Kelly's favour with the other having it down as a 113-113 draw. Murtazaliev looked to have got to grips with Kelly's evasive style in the latter rounds, but the home fighter rallied in the last three minutes to end strongly. Kelly, who becomes Sunderland's first world champion, sprinted to embrace trainer Adam Booth when the result was announced before grabbing the belt and raising it up to the 4,000-strong crowd. "It feels like a dream. I envisioned this," Kelly told BBC Radio 5 Live. "I was praying a couple of days ago, envisioned the fight, and I had deja vu of the knockdown in the tenth round. "I had to concentrate - I feel overwhelmed. I need to take a second backstage to gather myself. I'm mentally exhausted." Kelly takes the UK's tally of reigning male world champions to six, alongside heavyweight Fabio Wardley, welterweight Lewis Crocker, super-featherweight Jazza Dickens, featherweight Nick Ball and light-welterweight Dalton Smith. The 31-year-old extends his winning streak to eight.

fatido Earlier this month, President Trump announced he was suing JPMorgan Chase ( JPM ) and CEO Jamie Dimon for at least $5B for allegedly closing his accounts for political reasons in the wake of the Jan. 6 riots on Capitol Hill. JPMorgan has denied the allegations, asserting that it doesn't close accounts for political or religious reasons. The bank added, however, that accounts can be closed if they pose a legal or regulatory risk to the company. "We have been asking both this administration and prior administrations to change the rules and regulations that put us in this position, and we support this administration’s efforts to prevent the weaponization of the banking sector," JPMorgan added in a statement regarding the case . We asked Seeking Alpha analysts what impact they thought Trump's lawsuit might have on the banking sector. Labutes IR : While I think Trump's lawsuit against JPMorgan ( JPM ) lacks merit and doesn't make much sense, this is something that investors shouldn't overlook because it increases political risk for the financial system due to increasing political interference in business. A good example is Trump's proposed cap on credit card rates, which could have a tremendous negative impact on the product's profitability, impacting industry players such as JPMorgan, Citigroup ( C ), and Capital One ( COF ). While during his first term Trump was generally viewed as positive for the banking sector due to deregulation, the opposite seems to be happening now. This increases political risk for the banking industry and could lead to higher compliance and legal costs in the future, which would be negative for earnings growth ahead. Danil Sereda : I saw the lawsuit headlines and also SA's estimates that if it's ruled against JPMorgan ( JPM ), it's going to impact only 10 days of revenue for the bank. The JPM stock reacted negatively, but it's yet to price in that loss of 10 days because we're too far away from the court's decision, plus it could take m...

Clearway Energy NYSE: CWEN is entering 2026 “off to a strong start,” with management highlighting a clearer line of sight to its 2027 and 2030 financial targets and pointing to an expanding role for large-scale power buyers such as hyperscalers, according to remarks from CEO Craig Cornelius during a Jefferies clean energy discussion. Get Clearway Energy alerts: Sign Up Management cites strong visibility into 2027 and 2030 roadmap Cornelius said the company feels “great about the outlook for 2026” and reiterated confidence in fulfilling its 2026 guidance. He added that Clearway is on track toward goals originally set for 2027 and “uprated twice last year,” and that the “path to a set of goals that we'd outlined out to 2030 is increasingly clear.” On development progress, Cornelius said Clearway had already commercialized “substantially all” of what it planned to construct to support growth through 2027 and into 2028, with projects supported by power purchase agreements (PPAs), mature interconnection, site control, and equipment secured for builds through 2027. Google PPA portfolio seen as early step in larger hyperscaler demand cycle A key topic was Clearway’s recently announced portfolio of contracts with Google, which Jefferies’ Julien Dumoulin-Smith characterized as 1.2 gigawatts and part of a broader wave of hyperscaler renewable procurement. Cornelius said the agreements are “a sign of a lot more to come,” arguing that the Google procurement is meaningful but still “a very beginning point” relative to Google’s long-term carbon-free and grid-supportive needs. He highlighted several characteristics of the Google PPAs: Long contract duration and substantial commitment size. Diverse geography, including projects in Missouri, Texas, West Virginia, and elsewhere. A structure intended to support “high confidence” construction and equipment procurement through closer collaboration between developer and customer. Cornelius said he expects continued growth in “front-of-th...

Mainstream Expectations: Hope Vs. Potential Risk Authored by Lance Roberts via RealInvestmentAdvice.com, Mainstream expectations, those from Wall Street, economists, and corporate strategists, have congealed around a bullish economic outlook for 2026 . Most forecasts project stronger economic growth, with contained inflation, and continued investment in technology and capital expenditure. As such, many institutional investors interpret this as a year of opportunity for markets and corporate earnings.That was a point we discussed at this year’s Investment Summit with the following slide. But it isn’t just earnings that are expected to rise, but due to productivity increases (AI = Less Employment) corporate profit margins are expected swell to historic records. However, whenever I see Wall Street becoming universally bullish, the contrarian investor in me is always reminded of Bob Farrell’s Rule #9: “When all experts agree, something else will happen.” As I noted in that linked article: “Excesses are built by everyone on the same side of the trade. Ultimately, when the shift in sentiment occurs – the reversion is exacerbated by the stampede going in the opposite direction.” Yet the broader risk landscape is significant as consensus optimism obscures important vulnerabilities. When investors anchor on expected outcomes and overlook low‑probability but high‑impact risks, those risks become amplified. History shows that markets rarely transition smoothly from one year to the next without shocks to inflation, monetary policy, geopolitics, or credit conditions. For example, on January 1st, no one expected President Trump to slap additional tariffs on Europe over the potential purchase of Greenland. But it happened. So with that, let’s review mainstream expectations for 2026, and detail the “low probability, high impact risks,” that could derail the complacent expectations of investors.

Donald Trump has said Iran is “talking to” the US and hinted at a deal to avoid the use of military strikes. “[Iran is] talking to us, and we’ll see if we can do something, otherwise we’ll see what happens … We have a big fleet heading out there,” he told Fox News. “They are negotiating.” Trump added that US allies in the region were not being told of plans for possible strikes due to security reasons. He has threatened to intervene in Iran in the wake of a deadly crackdown on anti-government protests. “Well, we can’t tell them the plan. If I told them the plan, it would be almost as bad as telling you the plan – it could be worse, actually,” he said. Washington has deployed a naval battle group led by the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier off Iran’s shores, after Trump threatened to intervene in response to a deadly crackdown on anti-government protests. The arrival of the flotilla has raised fears of a direct confrontation with Iran, which has warned it would respond with missile strikes on US bases, ships and allies – notably Israel – in the event of an attack. But Trump has said he believes Iran will prefer to make a deal over its nuclear and missile programmes rather than face American military action – and Tehran has said it is ready for nuclear talks if its missiles and defence capabilities are not on the agenda. “Contrary to the hype of the contrived media war, structural arrangements for negotiations are progressing,” said Ali Larijani, head of Iran’s supreme national security council, a day after the Kremlin said Larijani held talks in Moscow with the Russian president, Vladimir Putin. Iran’s president, Masoud Pezeshkian, on Saturday said a broader conflict would hurt both Iran and the US. “The Islamic Republic of Iran has never sought, and in no way seeks, war and it is firmly convinced that a war would be in the interest of neither Iran, nor the United States, nor the region,” he said in a call with his Egyptian counterpart, Abdel Fatah al-Sisi, accor...

A US judge has ordered the release of a five-year-old boy and his father from a Texas detention center by Tuesday after they were taken into custody by immigration agents in Minneapolis earlier this month. Liam Conejo Ramos, an Ecuadorian boy, was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Minneapolis on 20 January after returning from school with his father. Images of the Minnesota preschooler wearing a bunny hat and a plaid coat went viral online, sparking outrage across the country after claims that the child, who was on the driveway of his home during the arrest, was used as bait to try to arrest his mother inside the house. US district judge Fred Biery said in his ruling on Saturday that “the case has its genesis in the ill-conceived and incompetently-implemented government pursuit of daily deportation quotas, apparently even if it requires traumatizing children”. Biery previously ruled that the boy and his father, Adrian Conejo Arias, could not be removed from the US. On Saturday’s order, Biery included a photo of the five-year-old boy and references to two lines in the Bible: “Jesus said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these,” and: “Jesus Wept.” Superintendent Zena Stenvik of the Columbia Heights public school district, which oversees Liam’s elementary school, said in a statement last week that three other children had been taken by immigration agents. Stenvik said that, during Liam and his father’s arrest, “another adult living in the home was outside and begged the agents to let them take care of the small child, but was refused”. “Instead, the agent took the child out of the still-running vehicle, led him to the door, and directed him to knock on the door, asking to be let in, in order to see if anyone else was home – essentially using a five-year-old as bait,” Stenvik added. The Department of Homeland Security disputed the claims that the child was used as bait...

Key Points Intuitive Surgical is an industry leader in surgical robotics. The company continues to sell many da Vinci systems, which power its parts and services revenue. The real question for investors is how much Intuitive Surgical's long-term growth opportunity is worth. 10 stocks we like better than Intuitive Surgical › Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ: ISRG) ended 2025 on a strong note. The tech/healthcare company placed 532 of its da Vinci surgical robots in the fourth quarter, up from 493 in the final quarter of 2024. There are now 11,106 da Vinci systems operating around the world, up 12% from the previous year. But the big story isn't the robots. What does Intuitive Surgical do? From a big-picture perspective, Intuitive Surgical makes the da Vinci surgical robotic system. So, the fact that it is selling more robots is good news. But when you dig in a little, you'll find that selling the actual surgical robot accounted for only around 25% of sales in 2025. That's not a fluke; da Vinci sales made up roughly 24% of the income statement's top line in 2024. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now, when you join Stock Advisor. See the stocks » The rest of the medical device company's revenue comes from services, instruments, and accessories. Services are the smallest part of the business, at roughly 15% of revenue. So, the biggest business is selling instruments and accessories, which account for roughly 60% of overall sales. That said, around 75% of the company's revenue is recurring in nature. That's an annuity-like income stream that grows with each new da Vinci unit installed. Recurring revenue is the true flywheel of the business, since robots need maintenance and parts over time. Notably, more use means more recurring revenue. This is why it is important to know that 18% more procedures were performed with the company's da Vinci system in 2025 than in 2024. That's well above the gr...

Landry Kaboré scored a double as Premiership leaders Hearts cranked up the pressure on title rivals Rangers and Celtic by easing to a 3-0 away win over nine-man Dundee United. The Jambos struck early through Kaboré and then doubled their lead with an Alexandros Kyziridis penalty shortly after home winger Amar Fatah was sent off. Kaboré then sealed a comfortable victory after United substitute Pan Camara was dismissed as Derek McInnes’s rampant league leaders soared seven points clear of Rangers and nine ahead of Celtic. Both Glasgow sides play on Sunday. Tawanda Maswanhise struck twice to keep Motherwell snapping at the heels of Celtic with a 2-0 victory at the basement club, Livingston. The Zimbabwe international opened the scoring in the sixth minute with a looping header and as the half-hour mark approached he curled home a second. Elijah Just hit the woodwork and Maswanhise could have scored a third in a match dominated by the visitors. Livingston’s problems mounted with news that 11th-placed Kilmarnock had crushed Aberdeen 3-0 at Rugby Park to move six points clear of the bottom. A glancing header by Brad Lyons and a well-taken finish by Bruce Anderson, scored in quick succession, propelled Kilmarnock into an early lead. The Dons’ problems mounted when their captain, Graeme Shinnie, was shown a straight red card for a high challenge and Tyreece John-Jules added the third soon after. St Mirren and Dundee fought out a goalless draw at Love Street. Stephen Robinson suggested St Mirren would consider appealing against the red card shown to Jake Young. Young, who was making his home debut, was sent off after 63 minutes by Nick Walsh for catching Brad Halliday on the foot as he stretched for the ball, a decision upheld by the video assistant referee. Robinson said: “For me it’s never a red card. I’m not sure where Jake has to put his foot. It’s in his stride. He can’t jump up in the air.

Here's how. Hyperscalers are spending big bucks to expand their data center footprints.
