伊朗周末对波斯湾铝厂的打击可能令本就脆弱的市场陷入危机，或推动铝价创纪录。这种金属广泛应用于飞机、食品包装和 太阳能 板等各领域。 在两家主要生产商确认遭伊朗无人机和导弹袭击后的首个交易日，伦敦金属交易所（LME）铝期货一度大涨6%。中东地区约占全球产量的9%，但其影响被放大，因为其他地区产量受限导致库存被消耗，市场缺乏缓冲冲击的余地。 甚至在该行业成为直接打击目标之前，霍尔木兹海峡关闭已使中东大型冶炼厂面临关键原料短缺，行业此前已在为未来几周可能出现的一连串减产做准备。 周六，该地区最大供应商阿联酋环球铝业（Emirates Global Aluminium）表示，其位于阿布扎比的设施遭受“严重破坏”；巴林铝业（Aluminium Bahrain）称正在评估其设施的受损程度。 “交易员需直面中东供应大幅削减的现实，”混沌天成期货研究主管李学智表示。 关闭和重启铝冶炼厂所需的时间长、成本高，对全球两大生产设施的打击带来的风险在于，即便霍尔木兹海峡重新开放，其对全球产量的影响仍可能持续很长时间。 铝是仅次于钢铁的第二大常用金属，价格持续飙升将给已深陷能源成本上涨困境的制造商带来更大压力。对全球经济而言，更令人担忧的是，供应中断可能严重到部分工业用户将耗尽某些特定产品，被迫暂时停产。 LME铝价上涨3.2%，结算价报每吨3401美元。铝业股也随之走高，其中美国铝业一度上涨13%，世纪铝业在纽约飙升逾20%。 历史性冲击 对中东地区铝产量的冲击可能会成为该市场历史上最大的供应冲击之一。此次遭袭的两座设施合计年产约320万吨，而整个海湾合作委员会国家的年产量超过600万吨，不过并非所有供应都通过霍尔木兹海峡运输。 相比之下，2022年，市场对俄铝供应可能中断的担忧曾在三周内推动铝价上涨30%。俄铝年产约400万吨。 不过，海峡长期关闭也可能引发能源价格飙升，从而冲击全球经济增长，削弱对铝及其他工业金属的需求。 军事需求 对铝买家而言，冲击可能在未来数月逐步显现。铝制品制造商Hammerer Aluminium Industries首席执行官Rob Van Gils表示，在战争爆发时，一些来自中东的货物已通过霍尔木兹海峡，最严重的供应短缺将推迟至第三季度。 目前供应最紧张的是成本较高的铝合金，这类产品广泛用于航空、汽车制造以及建筑行业。 中东冶炼厂是此类产品的重要供应来源，尤...

Top executives at several major public companies sold sizable chunks of their holdings last week, including Nvidia , Five Below and Dell Technologies . Insider selling can happen for a range of reasons, including diversification or accessing liquidity.

财联社3月31日讯（编辑 史正丞） 经过两次“漏气”维修后，美国国家航空航天局（NASA）正在为执行时隔半个世纪送宇航员去月球的“阿耳忒弥斯2号”任务进行最终准备。 根据NASA最新的情况通报，宇航员启程的目标时间点依然是 美东时间4月1日下午6点24分（北京时间4月2日清晨6点24分） ，发射窗口为两个小时。类似的发射窗口将持续到4月6日，如果届时还没有启程，之后的发射窗口至少得等到4月30日。 本次任务的4人乘组由3名资深NASA航天员——指令长里德·怀斯曼（Reid Wiseman）、飞行员维克托·格洛弗（Victor Glover）、任务专家克里斯蒂娜·科赫（Christina Koch），以及来自加拿大航天局的任务专家杰里米·汉森（Jeremy Hansen）共同执行。 （从左到右：里德·怀斯曼、维克托·格洛弗、克里斯蒂娜·科赫、杰里米·汉森） 重返月球 虽然“阿耳忒弥斯2号”乘组不会登陆月球，但他们将会成为 自1972年“阿波罗17号”任务后，首批前往月球的地球人 。 作为载人登月任务的关键验证步骤，“阿耳忒弥斯2号”将在10天左右的行程中验证往返月球的设备是否可靠。这也是NASA的太空发射系统（SLS）火箭和“猎户座”深空乘员舱的首次载人飞行。 因此， 航天员起飞后将先在地球轨道上测试“猎户座”太空舱的各项性能 ，确认通信、导航、推进和生命支持系统正常运行，并手动驾驶飞船接近燃料耗尽的SLS上级推进段火箭，模拟未来乘组与空间站或登月器对接所需的操作。 （来源：NASA） 如果一切顺利，乘组将小憩数小时，然后启动飞船的主发动机，同时地面上的飞行控制专家将对飞船的状况进行评估，最终决定是否允许乘组前往月球。 之后前往月球的旅程将持续4天，除了能目睹此前从未有人类亲眼见过的部分“月球背面”地区外，“阿耳忒弥斯2号”也将刷新人类抵达距地球最远距离的纪录。 以按时发射计算， “阿耳忒弥斯2号”将超越1970年“阿波罗13号”乘组创下的248,655英里最远距离纪录，预计能够达到252,000英里。 与此同时，由于月球转移注入点火已经精确匹配返回轨迹，所以“回家的路”将几乎跟随引力飞行。也就是说，即便在飞往月球后，飞船的导航或推进系统出现重大问题，仍能在不依赖自身推力的情况下返回地球。 如果一切都按计划进行，飞船将在地球引力的牵引下，于 4月10日在美国西海岸外的...

US oil prices ended the session above $100 a barrel for the first time since the US and Israel launched a war against Iran. West Texas Intermediate futures rose more than 3% to settle at $102.88 a barrel, the highest since July 2022, while international benchmark Brent is on track for a record percentage gain in March. The $100 price is a key psychological level watched by traders and other market participants. Oil prices have surged as the war between the US, Israel and Iran upended global markets and triggered concern about a simultaneous spike in inflation and slowdown in growth. The conflict has entered its fifth week and is showing no sign of abating despite a diplomatic push by Washington last week, with shipments through the critical Strait of Hormuz still near a complete halt.

The S&P 500 ( SP500 ) is heading toward its worst monthly decline since September 2022, underscoring a renewed bout of volatility in U.S. equities. As of late March, the benchmark index has fallen approximately 7.7% for the month, leaving it at its lowest level in more than seven months, a threshold not seen since August 20, 2025. Recent losses place the current pullback among other sharp downturns tied to major macro shocks in recent years, including the 2022 Russia-Ukraine conflict and aggressive Federal Reserve tightening cycle, the pandemic-driven collapse in 2020, and the late-2018 selloff sparked by a hawkish policy shift. Furthermore, the weakness has been broad-based . See below the top 15 worst S&P 500 performing stocks so far this year: Applovin ( APP ), -44.71% YTD Robinhood ( HOOD ), -42.90% YTD Trade Desk ( TTD ), -42.04% YTD Workday ( WDAY ), -40.18% YTD CoStar Group ( CSGP ), -39.34% YTD Fair Isaac ( FICO ), -38.21% YTD Gartner ( IT ), -36.88% YTD DoorDash ( DASH ), -35.47% YTD Estée Lauder ( EL ), -35.40% YTD Intuit ( INTU ), -35.27% YTD S&P 500 ETFs: ( SPY ), ( VOO ), ( IVV ), ( RSP ), ( SSO ), ( UPRO ), ( SH ), ( SDS ), ( SPXU ), ( FXAIX ), ( VFIAX ), ( VFFSX ), and ( SWPPX ).

Tesla May Beat Deliveries, But This Could Hurt The Bottom Line (NASDAQ:TSLA) Seeking Alpha

Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images News Investment Thesis Tesla, Inc. ( TSLA ) will soon release its Q1 2026 production and deliveries, and I expect the company to beat analyst estimates due to one key reason that I discuss in this article. However, for the same reason, I expect the company's profit margins to miss analyst estimates in Q1 2026 and remain depressed in the coming periods. Previous Coverage I most recently covered the company in my article Tesla: Challenging 2026 Ahead , in which I discussed Tesla's intensifying global competition, weakening demand, and persistent delays in autonomy and robotics, and assigned a Strong Sell rating. Tesla has declined by 20 percent since my article. Q1 2026 Forecast I expect Tesla to deliver more than 370,000 vehicles in Q1 2026, somewhat above the analyst consensus of 365,645 . The following table shared by Tesla shows the average, median, and standard deviation of 23 analyst estimates: Tesla Investor Relations The standard deviation of 25,941 indicates that analyst estimates have a wide range. In a normal distribution, approximately 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation, meaning 16 estimates likely were between 337,000 and 389,000, and seven estimates were outside of that range. This is a surprisingly wide range of estimates for a mega-cap company followed around the world by dozens, if not hundreds, of professional analysts as well as countless retail investors. This is important because, if the current quarter's estimates show such high uncertainty, the estimates for future periods may not be reliable. I believe that the following topic helped Tesla's deliveries but will materially and adversely impact Tesla's profitability in Q1 2026 ( figures expected April 22nd ) and future periods. 0% APR and Subprime Financing Ever since interest rates surged in 2022, Tesla has had to increasingly rely on price cuts and subvented (subsidized) interest rate financing to keep demand from falling sharply, but this comes at a ...

The US Department of Labor headquarters building is seen at dusk on June 21, 2024 in Washington, DC. J. David Ake | Getty Images News | Getty Images A rule that aimed to raise investment-advice protections for retirement savers has died in court — now, effectively, for the second time . Some legal experts said the outcome could lead unwary retirement investors to receive investment advice that's not in their best interests, and cause confusion about the legal obligations that brokers, insurance agents and other financial intermediaries owe to retail investors. The undoing of the so-called "fiduciary" rule, issued by the Biden-era Department of Labor , is a déjà vu of sorts, mirroring the outcome for a similar rule issued about a decade ago by the Obama administration, according to experts in retirement law.

Palantir Extends Its Partnership with Stellantis for an Additional 5 Years HPCwire

财联社3月31日讯（编辑 牛占林） 七国集团(G7)最新表示，已准备好采取“一切必要措施”，以维护能源市场稳定，并防止近期市场波动对整体经济造成更广泛的外溢影响。 当地时间周一，来自G7的财政部长、能源部长以及央行官员举行电话会议，就应对伊朗战争扰乱全球能源市场的影响进行协调行动。G7成员包括美国、加拿大、日本、英国、法国、德国和意大利。 G7财长与央行行长们紧急商讨之际，伊朗正对海湾产油国实施报复性打击，并事实上封锁了霍尔木兹海峡的航运通道，导致布伦特原油价格当日突破每桶116美元。 在由今年轮值主席国法国组织的会议结束后，G7在声明中表示：“我们已准备好与合作伙伴密切协调，采取一切必要措施，包括维护能源市场的稳定与安全。我们认识到协调一致的国际行动对于缓解溢出效应和维护宏观经济稳定的重要性。” 国际能源署(IEA)的32个成员国本月早些时候已同意，从战略储备中释放创纪录的4亿桶石油，以应对全球原油价格的飙升。 G7表示支持保障能源供应持续流动的相关努力，并注意到IEA根据各国具体情况提出的需求管理选项。同时，G7呼吁各国“避免对石油、天然气及相关产品实施不合理的出口限制”。 日本财务大臣片山皋月表示：“油价上涨及供应担忧对市场和经济增长产生影响的可能性已经上升。” 她补充称：“因此，我们一致认为，不能让这种局面持续下去。” 随着经济学家预计能源价格上涨将推高通胀，声明还指出，G7各国央行将致力于维持价格稳定，并将根据数据制定货币政策。 欧盟能源专员丹·约根森当天呼吁采取有针对性的措施，这些措施应与长期战略保持一致，包括减少化石燃料进口、提升可再生能源生产，并建立能源联盟。 美国总统特朗普周一宣布，与伊朗的谈判取得"重大进展"。然而，他威胁称，若不能"很快达成协议"，将攻击伊朗发电厂、石油基础设施，甚至可能包括海水淡化厂——这些行动可能进一步加剧全球市场的投机行为。 与此同时，G7同意确保霍尔木兹海峡安全，但前提是美国、以色列与伊朗之间的战争结束。 美国国务卿鲁比奥表示："伊朗内部某些人士与美国之间存在信息传递和一些直接对话，主要通过中间人进行。"伊朗方面则多次否认正在进行任何谈判。 鲁比奥声称，霍尔木兹海峡这条航道要么会通过伊朗遵守国际法而重新开放，要么会通过包括美国在内的多国合作来实现重新开放。他警告称，如果德黑兰在冲突平息后仍继续封锁航道，将会面临“严重的后...

Every weekday, the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer releases the Homestretch — an actionable afternoon update, just in time for the last hour of trading on Wall Street. The S & P 500 struggled to hold on to its gains to start the holiday-shortened week of trading. After a nice early morning pop following President Donald Trump's latest comments on the war in Iran, the market reversed and was led lower by the tech-heavy Nasdaq. U.S. oil benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude climbed back above $100 per barrel, up more than 3% on the day. In the current environment, bond prices tend to fall, pushing higher yields, when oil rallies because rising energy costs fuel inflation concerns. In his Sunday column , Jim Cramer noted that these rising bond yields are yet another headwind for some stocks during the war. On Monday, at least, the move in oil isn't corresponding with a jump in bond yields. The yield on the 10-yearTreasury note is down about 10 basis points to around 4.32% after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell poured cold water on the idea that a short-term spike in energy costs will require an interest rate hike. While the broader market drops slightly, the AI buildout part of the portfolio is experiencing more meaningful declines. Broadcom , Eaton , GE Vernova , Corning , Nvidia and Qnity Electronics were all lower. Other AI-related stocks outside our portfolio — including Micron , Lam Research , Applied Materials , CoreWeave and Vertiv — also traded lower. Corning, GE Vernova, Eaton, and Qnity traded higher last week, so it's possible Monday's move is simply a rotation into more beaten-down groups like software, which is catching a bid. Palo Alto Networks , CrowdStrike and Salesforce were the three biggest gainers in the portfolio on Monday. But one could also argue that OpenAI's sudden decision last week to shut down its Sora video-generation app is a sign that AI companies are starting to become more deliberate and rational about how they spend and alloca...
