primeimages/iStock via Getty Images By Mandy Xu Cross-Asset Volatility : Implied volatilities were mixed last week as the Iran war hit its two-week mark. Oil volatility continued its upward climb, with the OVX Index gaining another 15 pts to 120% - trading over 4 standard deviations above its long-term average and only exceeded by the 2020 COVID pandemic (when oil prices went negative). While oil prices have whipsawed over the past week on fast-changing headlines, positioning in the oil options market has remained consistently bullish, with demand for calls far outpacing the demand for puts. This is true even for longer-dated (e.g. 6-months) options, indicating fear of a sustained disruption to oil supply in the region. With inflation risk firmly biased to the upside, bond yields have risen alongside rates volatility, with VIXTLT Index up over 19 nms last week. Fed rate cut expectations have also been dialed back, with the market now pricing just 1 rate cut for this year (vs. ~2.5 cuts just two weeks ago). Also notable is the move in credit vol, which has spiked higher on the back of both increasing geopolitical risk as well as private credit concerns. For most of the past year, credit volatility has ranked as the cheapest cross-asset vol, signaling confidence in the broader US economy. Not anymore – the VIXIG index has almost tripled from its January low. Gold and equities are the only asset classes to see their volatility decline last week, with oil now overtaking gold as the richest cross-asset vol (Exhibit 1). Equity Volatility : While the SPX Index fell last week, the VIX Index also declined, in an unusual “spot down, vol down” move. The “expected” VIX Index move, given spot down -1.6%, was +2.0 pts. Instead, it fell -2.3 pts wk/wk to 27%. Our decomposition analysis (Exhibit 2) showed that it was driven by a combination of lower fixed strike vols (contributing -1.3 pts to the VIX Index move) and significantly lower demand for hedges (contributing -5.0 pts) as i...

"Intel or AMD?" is still one of the first questions that most users ask when trying to figure out which processor is better for a new PC. However, the answer to this question is not as straightforward as it was a few years ago, and buyers now need to look beyond brand familiarity — especially since this choice will shape nearly every other aspect of the components in a build. For many years, Intel was seen as the default choice in this debate. The manufacturer owned the mindshare, dominated prebuilt systems, and carried a reputation for quality and performance that its CPUs delivered. AMD, on the other hand, was seen as more appropriate for budget and entry-level desktops — but the company has since eaten into Intel's lead with its modern Ryzen processors, with data from Steam showing AMD CPUs being used by 43% of gamers on the platform. So if you're about to spend some money on a DIY PC build, it's important to compare what each brand is offering right now instead of relying solely on older assumptions. AMD was able to close the performance gap in recent years, and in many cases, even surpass Intel in key areas that the company used to dominate, such as gaming and power efficiency, while offering better prices.

Israel says it killed two top Iranian commanders in targeted strike toggle caption AFP via Getty Images/AFP Israel's defense minister said Tuesday that Israel's military carried out a targeted strike in Tehran that killed Ali Larijani, the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, one of the Iranian regime's top decision-making bodies, and Gholamreza Soleimani, who it said was a top commander of Iran's Basij forces— a paramilitary group linked to the Revolutionary Guard that Iranian authorities have used to enforce internal security. The Israeli military said Soleimani oversaw Basij units that played a central role in crackdowns on recent protests, and described his killing as a "significant blow" to Iran's security command structure. Sponsor Message European leaders, meanwhile, again rejected President Trump's demand for naval assistance to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz, with leaders in the U.K., Germany, Spain and Italy all signaling Monday they would not send ships to the strategic waterway. The refusal came as the leaders of Canada, France, Germany, Italy and the U.K. issued a joint statement warning about escalating violence between Israel and the militant group Hezbollah in Lebanon and urged immediate de-escalation. Overnight, Israel reported continued operations in Lebanon and Iran, while the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad came under attack again, according to the Iraqi government. Projectiles were fired in Abu Dhabi and a tanker was struck in Oman. Health authorities have reported about 1,300 killed in Iran, 886 in Lebanon and 12 in Israel since the start of the war on Feb. 28. The U.S. Central Command has said 13 U.S. service members have been killed and roughly 200 troops wounded. Here are more updates on the situation in the Middle East.

T5 Data Centers plans to raise $2 billion in equity to roll out more of the facilities, the latest sign of the vast amounts of capital pouring into the construction of artificial intelligence infrastructure. Morgan Stanley and Newmark Group Inc. are advising on the deal, according to people with knowledge of the matter who asked not to be identified as the details are private. T5, backed by Canadian real estate investor QuadReal Property Group, has already built 22 data centers in cities including Chicago, Los Angeles and Dallas, according to its website. The company manages more than three gigawatts of data center capacity. Each gigawatt is equivalent to the electricity needed for as many as one million homes. Representatives from Morgan Stanley, Newmark and QuadReal declined to comment. T5 did not respond to requests for comment. The fundraising effort comes as four of the biggest tech companies, including Alphabet Inc. and Meta Platforms Inc. , forecast they will have to spend about $650 billion this year to build out new data centers and the gear housed within them. The spending is so significant that the probability of a recession in the US will rise if AI fails to meet expectations, according to Torsten Slok , chief economist at Apollo Global Management Inc. The huge costs have seen more and more companies turn to the equity and debt markets to finance their growth. The Warburg Pincus-backed Princeton Digital Group plans to raise as much as $5 billion in debt this year to fund a buildout across several countries in Asia, while Nvidia is expected to invest $2 billion in Amsterdam-based AI infrastructure company Nebius Group NV to develop and build AI data centers. Read more: Meta to Spend Up to $27 Billion on AI Infrastructure From Nebius Atlanta-based T5 and real estate investor QuadReal, which set up a joint venture to develop and operate data centers in 2019, agreed to a deal last year for an additional $8 billion equity investment to help fund T5’s growth.

Hong Kong-listed shares of BYD Co. Ltd. surged following a reported overseas sales boost in South America. The automaker’s shares listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange surged 8.3%, the most in more than a year, after reports emerged that the automaker’s facility in Brazil received an order of 100,000 units from Mexico and Argentina, Bloomberg reported on Monday, citing local Chinese media news. Hong Kong-listed shares of BYD’s fellow Chinese automakers, like Nio Inc. and Xiaomi Corp, also recorded a 5% surge, the report said. Don't Miss: BYD’s Overseas Sales, Formula 1 Team The news comes as the world’s largest EV maker has recorded consistent growth in its overseas sales. BYD recently registered its facilities in Shenzhen and Xi’an as potential exporters to the Canadian market, even as Canada’s leader of opposition touts a U.S.-focused strategy for the country’s auto industry. BYD’s sales surged over 165% in the European market, beating rival Tesla Inc., which, despite a decline in January, recorded an uptick in sales recently in multiple countries in Europe.

格隆汇3月17日｜据彭博，一艘香港所有的散货船刚刚通过霍尔木兹海峡进入波斯湾，这在目前只有少数船只安全通过该水道的情况下实属罕见。 彭博汇编的船舶追踪数据显示，这艘名为Jia Xiang Da的小型散货船周一晚些时候从阿曼湾驶近这个咽喉要道，并向西进入波斯湾。到周二上午，该船出现在伊朗海岸附近，正朝着基什岛方向航行，预计将于周三抵达伊拉克乌姆盖斯尔港。吃水深度数据显示该船空载。 据海事数据库Equasis显示，这艘往返于中国和中东之间的货轮悬挂巴拿马国旗，但由总部位于中国香港的Jia Xiang Da Shipping Co Ltd.所有并运营。这艘船似乎是自伊朗战争爆发以来，第二艘被发现驶入波斯湾的中国相关船舶。

He's no longer Berkshire Hathaway's (BRKA +0.43%) (BRKB +0.40%) chief stock-picker. But Warren Buffett's proven stock-picking approach lives on through the decades of investing wisdom he's passed along while CEO of the conglomerate, as well as the fact that many of Berkshire's current picks were added to its holdings while Buffett was still at the helm. To this end, here are three Warren Buffett stocks currently in Berkshire's portfolio that you can feel good about buying and holding forever. 1. Coca-Cola It's not just one of Berkshire Hathaway's biggest positions. The Coca-Cola Company (KO +0.59%) is also one of Berkshire's oldest -- the 400-million-share position in the beverage giant first began being established all the way back in the mid-1990s. It's not difficult to see what the Oracle of Omaha liked about Coca-Cola at the time. As is still the case now, the company was dominating the drinks space thanks to plenty of clever lifestyle marketing. And perhaps more important to Buffett, also like now, back then The Coca-Cola Company was already dividend royalty; as of this year it's now raised its annual per-share payout for 64 consecutive years. For perspective on just how much Coca-Cola has been a boon for Berkshire's stock portfolio, since the position was first opened back in 1994, KO shares have advanced from a split-adjusted price of around $10 apiece to more than $77 now. Its quarterly dividend payment has also grown from just under $0.20 per share then to its current quarterly payment of $0.53 per share during this three-decade stretch. This holding now generates nearly $900 million worth of annual cash payments for Berkshire. And none of these dividend payments have ever been reinvested. This reliable cash flow is used in other ways that are just as important to Berkshire's enduring success.

Asian utilities are boosting coal-fired power generation to cut costs and safeguard energy supply, industry officials say, as the US-Israeli war on Iran chokes liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipments and soaring prices threaten to suppress LNG demand. Asia spot LNG prices have doubled to three-year highs in the second major supply shock in four years, as shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has all but stopped and No 2 global exporter Qatar has halted shipments. In South Asia, Bangladesh is increasing coal power generation and coal-fired power imports in March, daily government data shows. Advertisement Pakistan aims to further boost power generated from domestic sources after solar additions helped it avoid a repeat of the LNG supply volatility behind widespread outages following Russia’s 2022 Ukraine invasion , according to Power Minister Awais Leghari. “With reduction in LNG generation, plants running on locally mined coal will be able to produce more during off-peak hours,” Leghari said.
