As Asian demand for mining equities strengthens, Silvercorp’s proposed Hong Kong listing could broaden its investor base and support a valuation re-rating. For years, Alibaba was one of the most important companies in China, yet much of its shareholder base sat thousands of miles away in New York.

In the brief history of AI security, the prompt injection has quickly become the top threat. Large language models are inherently unable to distinguish between legitimate instructions provided by users and malicious ones sneaked into emails, source code, and other third-party content the models are processing. This makes it trivial to surreptitiously inject malicious commands that the LLM readily follows. With no way to enforce this crucial boundary between trusted and untrusted sources, AI engine developers are left to erect elaborate guardrails designed to mitigate the damage rather than solve the root cause. To date, most prompt injections have fallen into a class known as push, in which each potential victim is targeted. For example, the adversary injects malicious instructions into an individual email or calendar invitation. Because the injection must then be sent (or pushed) to each specific target, the scale of the attack is limited, hampering mass exploits that hit the Internet at large. Read full article Comments

Mainland Chinese technology companies newly listed in Hong Kong are deepening their engagement with the city, tapping not only its capital markets but also its global connectivity to refine products, forge international partnerships and expand overseas, according to executives. For Beijing-based service robot maker Yunji Technology, Hong Kong has become a key gateway to global markets since its listing in the city in October. “If we use one word to describe what Hong Kong offers for us, that...

Plus: national team colours that are different from flags; Senegal’s goal difference record setters; and Scotland’s unbeaten 1974 tournament Mail us with your all of your questions and answers “Neymar’s consolation penalty against Norway at the World Cup means his first international goal, scored on his first cap, was in the same stadium (MetLife) as his last international goal on his final cap,” writes Griffin Cant. “Are there any other players who have bookended their international career in a similar way?” Over 77,000 people were at the MetLife Stadium on 10 August 2010 as Neymar made his Brazil bow in a friendly against the USA. The fresh-faced, dodgy-haircutted 18-year-old scored after just 28 minutes , a thumping header past Tim Howard in the USA goal. Nearly 16 years later, he rolled his penalty – his 80th goal for his country on his 130th appearance – past Norway’s Ørjan Nyland at the same end of the stadium as Brazil exited the World Cup in the last 16 and followed it by announcing his retirement from international duty.

The 2022 semi-finalists have delighted fans at home as the continent’s other sides struggle with off-field problems Over the past six decades, Morocco have achieved several performance milestones for Africa at the World Cup. The first country to qualify directly, for the 1970 finals in Mexico, they returned in 1986 and became the first team from the continent to make the last 16, then made that impressive semi-final run in Qatar four years ago. Even if the Atlas Lions fail to match their 2022 performance, by losing to France on Thursday , they have made tournament history as the first African team to reach the quarter-finals at successive World Cups.

A legal case on behalf of some 700,000 people against the country’s biggest housebuilders could be a catalyst for much-needed industry reform Every new government – at least for the past decade or so – has come into office with a promise to build more homes. New ministers don a hard hat, take a trip out to a recently completed development and smile indulgently as a bright young couple get given the keys to a smart-looking new-build. Then follows a speech about aspiration. The unspoken truth will be that it is not up to the minister how many new homes are built in his or her term. Instead, this decision is mostly made in the boardrooms of the largest developers, who together control the land and resources to dominate the market in this country.

Singaporean state-owned investor Temasek Holdings Pte is ramping up its exposure to artificial intelligence and the Americas, a shift which helped push its net portfolio value to S$518 billion ($401 billion) in the last financial year. Temasek generated total shareholder returns of 10.5% in local currency terms in the year ending March 31, according to a new valuation methodology that will become its standard. Based on its outgoing metric, the firm’s US dollar returns were around 16.4% — almost exactly matching the rise of the S&P 500 Index during the same period. The giant investment firm is now planning to further increase its exposure to AI assets, having already taken stakes in firms including OpenAI , Anthropic and Nvidia Corp . Temasek plans to more than double its allocation to AI from 6% to up to 15% by 2031. The shift underscores how critical — and lucrative — AI investments have become to investors around the world despite rising fears that a rally in the sector is becoming a bubble. The technology has shaken up global markets, driving staggering returns for tech stocks and fueling hopes of huge initial public offerings to come. Temasek’s push is in line with a rush to allocate to AI companies among global funds, although executives at the state-owned investor said they will take a careful approach. Temasek International Chief Investment Officer Rohit Sipahimalani pointed to Nvidia, which trades at a lower earnings multiple than many hot tech stocks despite becoming almost synonymous with the AI trade. “Is that frothy? I don’t think so,” he said. “But maybe other companies are, so I think you’ve got to look at it company by company.” Temasek’s assets in the Americas, which are second only to its home nation of Singapore, hit 26% of the portfolio in the most recent fiscal year – a huge jump from the roughly 11% it represented in 2016. The portion in China rose slightly to 17%, although the exposure remains well below the 24% it represented a decade ago. “Gi...
