Around January in these parts we run a test on the dictionaries’ words of the year. Our thinking is that if a word really has left online cliques and entered general use, a crossword setter will have used it, as crosswords have historically been faster at recording language than the dictionaries themselves. Of 2025’s winning words, VIBE CODING (Collins) and PARASOCIAL (Cambridge) are nowhere to be seen in puzzles. I expect to see SLOP (Merriam-Webster) in its new AI-generated sense before long, as my sense is that it’s genuinely useful and moving toward more general comprehension. Dictionary.com’s 6-7 (SIX-SEVEN) is harder to nail down. The rest are close to Oxford’s entry, RAGE BAIT, so we can mark 2025 as another non-bumper crop. Students of grid construction will have noted some striking and memorable grids in the period after Christmas: this is due to a new, annual brief amnesty. One of 2026’s non-Guardian grids is already in place! We should also respond to this startling opening to a Stuart Heritage profile of Pluribus star Rhea Seehorn: ‘You gotta tell me how to crack the code,’ she pleads before we’ve even said hello. ‘I’m an avid crossword puzzler, but I cannot beat the Guardian crossword. I cannot crack it, and I need to figure out what the problem is.’ Rhea, you and the Guardian think alike. Since April 2024, we have given away the code: our quick cryptic puzzle (archive here) uniquely tells solvers how the wordplay works. The plan is that solvers can move from that to our beginner-friendly quiptic, using our “for beginners” guides or the help of a friend. Then on to Monday and before the new solver knows it, he or she will be solving our hardest series, the Genius. There is no problem here.

Meet The Democrat Congressman Crushing Pelosi's Stock Returns Move over Nancy Pelosi, there’s a new insider trader, err, investor in town whose portfolio has you beat. Pelosi’s investment record during her decades in Congress has long drawn criticism, with her portfolio posting a whopping 54% return last year. The California Democrat, who plans to depart at the conclusion of her term in January 2027, recorded a more modest 18% gain in 2025—still a figure that would make some on Wall Street blush. In 2025, Rep. Tom Suozzi (D- NY) led all Democrats with the strongest portfolio performance , according to data reviewed by The New York Post . The figures come from alternative-data platform Quiver Quantitative, which tracks congressional stock transactions amid heightened public and political fallout from lawmakers’ investment returns. Suozzi’s portfolio rose 35%, substantially exceeding major market indexes, including the Dow Jones Industrial Average’s 14% gain, the S&P 500’s 17% advance and the Nasdaq Composite’s 21% increase, according to data provided exclusively to The Post by Quiver Quantitative. “ Some members seemed to spend more time managing their portfolios than they did at their day job on Capitol Hill, ” Quiver Quantitative CEO Christopher Kardatzke told The Post . “We have seen members making day trades, options trades, and – for the first time ever – meme coin trades.” Suozzi, who serves on subcommittees handling tax policy and oversight and was first elected in 2016, previously faced a House Ethics Committee investigation related to his trading activity. The New York Democrat closed 2025 with a stock portfolio valued at approximately $9.5 million, reflecting a $2.5 million increase. Much of the gain stemmed from a large position in Nvidia, which rose about 40% during the year and represented an estimated $8.2 million of his holdings. House Republican leadership has pledged to bring legislation banning members of Congress from trading individual stocks to a...

ASML ASML shares rallied 8.8% in the last trading session to close at $1. This move can be attributable to notable volume with a higher number of shares being traded than in a typical session. This compares to the stock's 3.6% loss over the past four weeks. The optimism surrounding the stock can be attributed to the benefit that ASML is deriving from the traction in logic and DRAM, giving the company a medium- to long-term positive outlook. This equipment supplier to semiconductor makers is expected to post quarterly earnings of $8.84 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +21.1%. Revenues are expected to be $11.06 billion, up 11.9% from the year-ago quarter. Earnings and revenue growth expectations certainly give a good sense of the potential strength in a stock, but empirical research shows that trends in earnings estimate revisions are strongly correlated with near-term stock price movements. For ASML, the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised marginally higher over the last 30 days to the current level. And a positive trend in earnings estimate revision usually translates into price appreciation. So, make sure to keep an eye on ASML going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road. The stock currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). You can see the complete list of today's Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) stocks here >>>> ASML is part of the Zacks Semiconductor Equipment - Wafer Fabrication industry. Advanced Energy Industries AEIS, another stock in the same industry, closed the last trading session 6% higher at $221.99. AEIS has returned -2.5% in the past month. For Advanced Energy, the consensus EPS estimate for the upcoming report has remained unchanged over the past month at $1.76. This represents a change of +35.4% from what the company reported a year ago. Advanced Energy currently has a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold).

Once upon a time, long before Wicked became a musical and two movie blockbusters, its composer and lyricist Stephen Schwartz wrote this eccentric picaresque about the restless son of the Holy Roman emperor Charlemagne. Schwartz was 24 when it became a Broadway hit in 1972 but many of the evergreen lyrics reveal an old soul. “Cats fit on the window sill, children fit in the snow,” observes its eponymous hero. “So why do I feel I don’t fit in anywhere I go?” Pippin’s framing as a musical erected by a band of travelling players fits this fringe venue well. The stage is sparsely decorated and the arriving performers offer a ramshackle narrative conjured from – and constantly on the verge of vanishing into – thin air, thanks to tricks from magic consultant Martin T Hart in a production directed and choreographed by Amanda Noar. In Roger O Hirson’s book, Pippin is portrayed by a player essaying the role for the first time. Noar heightens the character’s naivety by having the lead actor, Lewis Edgar, plucked as if from the audience, dragooned into the show by the authoritarian Leading Player (Emily Friberg). She casts a spell on him with her brightly painted talons and similarly wields control of a marionette-like ensemble who exude slinky mischief in the opener, Magic to Do. View image in fullscreen Beguiling … Emily Friberg in Pippin. Photograph: Inigo Woodham-Smith The seductive charm of that song is the keynote of a production that never quite captures the musical’s prevailing malevolence, despite a beguiling performance by Friberg who stalks the stage. The pair of songs about battle, War Is a Science and Glory, should chill in their vaudeville grotesquerie, as should Bob Fosse’s choreography for a routine dubbed “the Manson trio”, referring to the cult leader’s manipulative powers of control. The Fosse flash – isolated hips, flickering fingers – is often present here but the dark undercurrent of the time in which Pippin was written is mostly missing, despite costume d...

2026年伊始，全球股市在人工智能（AI）的兴奋情绪中高歌猛进，但可能忽略了一个可能破坏欢乐气氛的最大威胁：部分由科技投资热潮推动的通胀劲扬。 美国股市主要股价指数在2025年录得两位数涨幅、触及纪录新高，主要由科技业七巨头的涨势带动，而AI和货币宽松政策的亢奋情绪也推动欧洲股市和亚洲股市创下历史新高。 对进一步降息的预期也提振了债券，使美国公债投资者获得了五年来最好的年度表现，因为通胀有所回落，尽管仍高于美联储平均目标2%。 2026年，美国、欧洲和日本政府的刺激措施，再加上AI的蓬勃发展，有望为全球经济增长注入新的活力。 这让基金经理们担心通胀会重新加速，促使央行结束降息周期，为流入AI市场的宽松资金踩下煞车。 Royal London Asset Management跨资产部门主管Trevor Greetham表示：“你需要一根针来刺破泡沫，而这根针可能会通过收紧银根来实现。”他说，虽然他目前还在持有大型科技股，但如果2026年底之前全球通胀飙升，他也不会感到惊讶。 Greetham说，货币紧缩将降低投资者对投机性科技股的偏好，提高AI项目的融资成本，并削弱科技集团的利润和股价。 多位分析师指出，微软、Meta和Alphabet等所谓的超大规模公司耗资数万亿美元竞相建设新的数据中心，这也是一种推动通胀的力量，因这些项目正在以惊人的速度吞噬能源和先进芯片。 摩根士丹利策略师Andrew Sheets表示：“在我们的预测中，成本不降反升，因为芯片成本和电力成本都在上涨。” 他说，美国消费者物价通胀率在2027年底之前都将保持在美联储的目标2%之上，部分原因是企业对AI的大规模投资。 摩根大通跨资产战略主管FabioBassi表示，“无论芯片的价格何去何从”，美国劳动市场改善、刺激性支出和已经发生的降息将使通胀率保持在目标之上。 AvivaInvestors在其2026年展望中表示，随着AI投资以及欧洲和日本一波波的政府刺激性支出所带来的物价压力不断升温，主要的市场风险将来自于各国央行结束降息周期，甚至开始加息。 低估通胀风险 美世（Mercer）宏观经济和动态资产配置部门欧洲主管Julius Bendikas指出，“让我们夜不能寐的是，通胀风险再次出现。”美世直接管理着6，830亿美元的资产，并为管理着总计16.2万亿美元资产的机构提供咨询。Bendikas目前还...

中国国家主席习近平（右）星期一（1月5日）在北京人民大会堂与韩国总统李在明（左）见证两国签署合作文件仪式上握手。 （路透社） 中国国家主席习近平在与到访的韩国总统李在明会谈时指出，中韩应携手捍卫二战胜利成果，守护东北亚和平稳定。 据新华社报道，习近平星期一（1月5日）下午在北京人民大会堂同赴华进行国事访问的李在明举行会谈。 中国国家主席习近平（左四）星期一（1月5日）在北京人民大会堂与到访的韩国总统李在明（右五）举行会谈。（路透社） 习近平强调，中韩两国长期坚持“以和为贵”“和而不同”，超越社会制度和意识形态差异，相互成就、共同发展。双方应延续这一优良传统，不断增进互信，尊重各自选择的发展道路，照顾彼此核心利益和重大关切，坚持通过对话协商妥善解决分歧。 他说，中韩经济联系紧密，产业链供应链深度互嵌，合作互惠互利，要加强发展战略对接和政策协调，做大共同利益蛋糕，在人工智能、绿色产业、银发经济等新兴领域打造更多合作成果。双方要增进人员往来，开展青少年、媒体、体育、智库、地方等方面交往。 习近平指出，当前世界百年变局加速演进，国际形势更加变乱交织。中韩在维护地区和平、促进全球发展方面肩负重要责任，有广泛利益交集，应当坚定站在历史正确一边，作出正确战略选择。 他说，80多年前，中韩两国付出巨大民族牺牲，赢得抗击日本军国主义的胜利。今天更应携手捍卫二战胜利成果，守护东北亚和平稳定。作为经济全球化的受益者，中韩要共同反对保护主义，践行真正的多边主义，为推进平等有序的世界多极化、普惠包容的经济全球化作出贡献。 两国元首会谈后共同见证签署科技创新、生态环境、交通运输、经贸合作等领域15份合作文件。 韩国总统李在明（左二）和夫人金惠景（左）在星期一（1月5日）会谈前于北京人民大会堂举行的欢迎仪式上，与中国国家主席习近平（右二）和夫人彭丽媛（右）合影。（法新社） 习近平和夫人彭丽媛会谈前在人民大会堂北大厅为李在明和夫人金惠景举行欢迎仪式。 韩国总统李在明星期一（1月5日）在中国国家主席习近平的陪同下，于北京人民大会堂举行的欢迎仪式上，检阅中国人民解放军仪仗队。（法新社） 李在明抵达时，礼兵列队致敬。两国元首登上检阅台，军乐团奏中韩两国国歌，天安门广场鸣放礼炮21响。李在明在习近平陪同下检阅中国人民解放军仪仗队，并观看分列式。 习近平和彭丽媛当晚在人民大会堂金色大厅为李在明夫妇举行欢迎宴...

全球最大智能充电设备供货商，赴港IPO。 1月4日，星星充电品牌母公司万帮数字能源股份有限公司（下称：星星充电，Star Charge）在港交所递交招股书，拟在香港主板挂牌上市。 此次IPO，星星充电拟将募资用于通过建设及运营研发中心以及持续开展研发活动，进行产品及技术组合的研发投入及创新；用于全球市场拓展，将于五大关键区域建立区域营销及服务中心，包括非洲、中东、东南亚、南美及北美；提高在常州和盐城的生产设施的生产能力；战略投资与并购等。 根据弗若斯特沙利文的资料，市场上有超过1000个符合星星充电标准的潜在目标。截至最后实际可行日期，该公司尚未确定任何投资或收购目标，亦未订立任何确定性的投资或收购协议。在近两年的“并购”大潮下，星星充电的“并购”计划或许很快就会到来。 上市进程显示，2020年9月星星充电曾与国泰君安证券签署过辅导协议，拟首次公开发行人民币普通股并上市。2024年1月，据彭博社引述消息称，星星充电考虑香港上市，募资约5亿美元，可能寻求约50亿美元的估值。随后在2024年10月，星星充电再次与国泰君安签署上市辅导协议，外界一度认为该公司或将重启A股IPO。 值得一提的是，2025年10月，中国家用电动汽车充电领域的龙头企业挚达科技，已率先在港交所主板挂牌上市，成为“智能充电桩第一股”。 一切顺利的话，与特来电、国家电网共同跻身充电运营商第一梯队的星星充电，或将于今年内顺利完成上市，成为“充电桩第二股” 80后女强人创业，干出一个超级独角兽 星星充电背后是一位80后女强人的“彪悍”的二十年。 邵丹薇生于1982年，常州人，草根出身，19岁时，她为了凑足大学学费，怀揣13元钱，独自一人来到南京打工，开启了她的勤工俭学之路。2004年，大学毕业的邵丹薇放弃江苏卫视、深圳发展银行等知名企事业单位的工作机会，却选择做最基层的汽车销售顾问。 加入万帮汽车之后，邵丹薇仅用1个月就成为销冠，3个月升任销售经理，6个月成为品牌全国体系内最年轻的总经理，1年便出任万帮车业集团总裁。之后的十年里，邵丹薇带领万帮汽车保持年均70%以上的增长率，曾创下年销售收入超200亿元的纪录，成为苏皖最大的汽车经销商集团。 但十年后，邵丹薇选择重新创业。彼时，她发现很多知名车企都在关注新能源汽车，但她并没有去参与造车，而是意识到新兴新能源汽车行业所面临的充电困难及基础设施不足等关键挑战，...

嘴馋来包零食，本以为自己吃的是精挑细选的低卡零食，结果反被热量表“背刺”？ 最近，有细心的消费者在零食外包装上发现，不少营养成分表里标注的热量，并非按照以往常用的“每100g”计算，而是按照“每份”，而且一份的量有时远远小于一整包，美滋滋吃完才发现不小心摄入了近三倍热量，简直是零食里的“热量刺客”。 图源：小红书@白日梦想家（已授权） 更让“减肥党”惴惴不安的问题是：还有多少零食是这么标注热量的？为什么零食热量要按“份”标注？ 零食热量按“份”算？ 按“份”标注营养成分，饼干类产品中常常见到。 好丽友的经典产品好丽友·派低糖版，每盒净含量为384克，营养成分表标注为每份32克，即其中一枚重量。奥利奥点亮梦想系列夹心饼干，每盒净含量97克，营养成分表却标注为每份（19.4克），克数有零有整得让人一时摸不着头脑，该品牌线上官方店亿滋官方旗舰店客服介绍称，这为两片饼干大致重量。 （上）好丽友低糖巧克力味可可派营养成分表（下）奥利奥点亮梦想系列夹心饼干营养成分表图源：ORION好丽友食品旗舰店、亿滋官方旗舰店 同样在营养成分表中将每份重量精确到小数的，还有费列罗，标注的是每份（12.5克）的热量。按照每盒48颗巧克力净含量600克计算，一份即指一颗巧克力。 图源：费列罗官方旗舰店 需要留意的是，有些产品的“每份”，并不是每个/枚单品的重量。 以雀巢奇巧（KitKat）威化巧克力为例，它在营养成分表中标注“每份 12.5 克”。而无论是净含量 480 克、含 40 枚的大包装，还是净含量 120 克、含 10 枚的圣诞礼盒装，按包装信息粗略一算，每枚的重量大约都为 12 克，与“每份 12.5 克”很接近，却并不完全一致。 重量上虽然只差 0.5 克，但热量却差异不小：按照营养成分表上标注的每12.5克267千焦能量换算，每0.5克威化黑巧克力大致会带来2.55大卡能量，消费者如果默认“一枚”为“一份”，就会在不知不觉中把热量估算得更“不乐观”。 图源：KitKat雀巢奇巧旗舰店 在膨化类零食中，按“份”标注热量也很常见。 上好佳品牌旗下产品“鲜虾片”“荷兰豆”“洋葱圈”等多款经典膨化零食，在净含量分别为65克、75克、65克的规格产品上，营养成分均以“每份30克”标注。 图源：小红书@ruoyan99（已授权） 好丽友食品旗舰店中，每袋净含量分别为70克和40克的“好友趣”...

要实现唐纳德・特朗普总统提出的、由美国主导的委内瑞拉困境石油产业复兴计划，或将是一个耗时数年且充满挑战的过程，预计耗资 超 1000 亿美元 。 多年的腐败丛生、投资不足、火灾频发与盗窃猖獗，已让这个国家的原油基础设施满目疮痍。莱斯大学贝克公共政策研究所拉丁美洲能源政策主任弗朗西斯科・莫纳迪表示，若要将委内瑞拉的石油产量恢复至 20 世纪 70 年代的峰值水平， 雪佛龙 、 埃克森美孚 、 康菲石油 等企业需在未来十年间，每年投入约 100 亿美元。 “若想加速产量复苏，所需的投资规模还会更大。” 莫纳迪补充道。 委内瑞拉坐拥全球最大的石油储量，但在尼古拉斯・马杜罗长达 12 年的执政期内，其石油产量大幅暴跌。马杜罗已于本周六凌晨被美军抓获。目前该国日均石油产量约为 100 万桶，而在 1974 年，这一数字接近 400 万桶。 美国国务卿马克・鲁比奥在周日接受美国广播公司（ABC）采访时表示，他预计美国石油企业将热切抓住开采委内瑞拉重质原油的机会 —— 这类原油对美国墨西哥湾沿岸的炼油厂而言至关重要。 “过去几天我虽未与美国石油企业沟通，但我们有充分理由相信，它们会对此表现出极大的兴趣。” 鲁比奥称，“只要给予私营企业足够的操作空间，我认为它们会产生强烈的参与意愿和需求。” 然而，曾任职于委内瑞拉国家石油公司、二十多年前逃离该国的里诺・卡里略指出，石油企业在踏足委内瑞拉之前，必然希望确认这个国家的局势足够稳定。 “任何一家打算认真考虑投资委内瑞拉石油产业的企业，都需要看到一个全新的国会或国民议会的诞生。” 卡里略在接受采访时强调，“绝不是现在这样的局面，绝对不可能。” 与此同时，委内瑞拉基础设施的修复工作规模浩大。 在该国的石油港口，设备老化破损严重，将超级油轮装满运往中国的原油，如今最长需要耗时 5 天，而七年前仅需 1 天就能完成装载。 奥里诺科重油带位于委内瑞拉内陆腹地，据估计拥有近 5000 亿桶可采石油储量，但如今这里钻机遭废弃，原油泄漏无人处理。钻井平台在光天化日之下被洗劫一空，设备零部件最终流入黑市贩卖。 委内瑞拉境内纵横交错的地下输油管网，渗漏问题早已臭名昭著，部分管道甚至遭到该国国家石油公司的蓄意拆解，以废金属的形式变卖。频发的火灾与爆炸事故，更是让大量设备沦为一堆废铁。 位于加拉加斯西北海岸的大型帕拉瓜纳炼油中心，因设备故障频发，如今只能间歇性...

Welcome to India Edition, Bloomberg’s daily dive into what’s moving the worlds of business, markets and politics in this dynamic, fast-paced economy. I’m Menaka Doshi . If you didn’t receive this directly in your inbox, you can subscribe here , and share feedback with us here . Today we look at the developments in Venezuela, and the steady rise in founder billionaires through listings. The new year has begun with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in an even tighter spot than last year. India has now received two warnings from US President Donald Trump — one of them direct. The first went out to the entire world over the weekend after US’ hostile takeover of long-time foe Venezuela. Even ally Denmark seems to be pleading to save Greenland . One analyst described Trump’s actions best: it’s “showing us the makings of an imperial order ,” Bader Al-Saif, an assistant professor at Kuwait University and an associate fellow at Chatham House told Bloomberg. The events in Venezuela have no immediate economic impact on India. The bulk of bilateral trade is oil imports, which, due to sanctions, is already down two thirds over the past year to about $340 million. Some analysts expect Reliance Industries to benefit from easier access to cheap Venezuelan crude and ONGC to recover dues from production interests in the South American nation. But all that’s a long time away and ranks only after American interests are met. India received a second warning over the weekend. Stop buying Russian crude oil or we can raise tariffs further, the US President almost threatened in a conversation over a new proposed US bill intended to stop all Russia crude sales in an attempt to end the Ukraine war. In December, Russian crude oil flows to India were on track to hit the lowest level in three years. Yet Trump remains unimpressed and the additional 25% levy ( total 50% ) on Indian exports persists. So here we are, in a new year facing the same old dilemma — of how India can make peace with Trump and sa...

In recent trading, shares of SiTime Corp (Symbol: SITM) have crossed above the average analyst 12-month target price of $355.00, changing hands for $369.96/share. When a stock reaches the target an analyst has set, the analyst logically has two ways to react: downgrade on valuation, or, re-adjust their target price to a higher level. Analyst reaction may also depend on the fundamental business developments that may be responsible for driving the stock price higher — if things are looking up for the company, perhaps it is time for that target price to be raised. There are 9 different analyst targets within the Zacks coverage universe contributing to that average for SiTime Corp, but the average is just that — a mathematical average. There are analysts with lower targets than the average, including one looking for a price of $260.00. And then on the other side of the spectrum one analyst has a target as high as $420.00. The standard deviation is $46.097. But the whole reason to look at the average SITM price target in the first place is to tap into a "wisdom of crowds" effort, putting together the contributions of all the individual minds who contributed to the ultimate number, as opposed to what just one particular expert believes. And so with SITM crossing above that average target price of $355.00/share, investors in SITM have been given a good signal to spend fresh time assessing the company and deciding for themselves: is $355.00 just one stop on the way to an even higher target, or has the valuation gotten stretched to the point where it is time to think about taking some chips off the table?

随着全球科技公司加快人工智能AI数据中心建设， 鸿海 报告季度销售额增长22%。 英伟达的这家主要服务器组装合作伙伴周一公布，截至12月份的季度销售额为2.6万亿元新台币（826亿美元）。分析师此前平均预期约为2.4万亿元。 包括英伟达及其内存合作伙伴 美光 科技在内的芯片公司，最近再次确认了未来几个季度AI需求将保持强劲的预期。英伟达在11月表示，1月季度的销售额将在约650亿美元，比分析师的预期高出约30亿美元。这家芯片制造商还表示，未来几个季度有望实现5000亿美元的营收，而且这一数字可能比预期还要高。 但人们对AI泡沫的担忧依然存在。投资者仍然担心大型科技公司承诺在AI基础设施上投入数千亿美元，但这些资金却无法立即产生回报。 责任编辑：刘明亮

In recent trading, shares of TechnipFMC plc (Symbol: FTI) have crossed above the average analyst 12-month target price of $12.14, changing hands for $12.15/share. When a stock reaches the target an analyst has set, the analyst logically has two ways to react: downgrade on valuation, or, re-adjust their target price to a higher level. Analyst reaction may also depend on the fundamental business developments that may be responsible for driving the stock price higher — if things are looking up for the company, perhaps it is time for that target price to be raised. There are 18 different analyst targets within the Zacks coverage universe contributing to that average for TechnipFMC plc, but the average is just that — a mathematical average. There are analysts with lower targets than the average, including one looking for a price of $8.50. And then on the other side of the spectrum one analyst has a target as high as $14.50. The standard deviation is $1.704. But the whole reason to look at the average FTI price target in the first place is to tap into a "wisdom of crowds" effort, putting together the contributions of all the individual minds who contributed to the ultimate number, as opposed to what just one particular expert believes. And so with FTI crossing above that average target price of $12.14/share, investors in FTI have been given a good signal to spend fresh time assessing the company and deciding for themselves: is $12.14 just one stop on the way to an even higher target, or has the valuation gotten stretched to the point where it is time to think about taking some chips off the table?
