Indian equities will be looking to establish a floor, helped by an easing of tensions in the Middle East following the weekend’s flare-up. Asian stocks are rising this morning after three days of losses, boosted by a stronger handover from Wall Street, while oil has dipped and the dollar is weakening. That should help steady local markets after the Nifty closed at a two-month low on Monday. Foreign selling had picked up in recent sessions, and of course, the lack of a clear path to a lasting peace deal in the Middle East has been keeping investors cautious. Meanwhile, the rupee will remain in focus after the RBI unveiled a swap facility for overseas borrowings by state-run firms late evening, a move that could encourage foreign inflows by making offshore funding more attractive. And overnight, a US federal judge struck down the $100,000 fee President Donald Trump had ordered for H-1B visa applications, providing a reprieve for technology companies that rely on hiring skilled workers from overseas. In today’s newsletter, we write about: The selloff in auto and realty Capacity expansion in chemicals Margin overhang for city-gas firms But first, why hedging costs will be key to sustaining foreign flows into bonds. Markets Buzz: Hedge Hurdle Global funds have stepped up purchases of Indian government bonds after the country’s latest moves to draw more foreign capital. Index-eligible bonds on Friday recorded their biggest inflow in nearly a year, and investors extended their buying streak into Monday despite risk-off sentiment sparked by those escalating Middle ...

SHENZHEN, CHINA - MAY 1: The Chinese national flag is seen in front of stacked shipping containers bearing MSC (Mediterranean Shipping Company), Maersk, and Hamburg Süd branding at Yantian Port on May 1, 2026, in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China. Cheng Xin | Getty Images News | Getty Images China's trade growth held up better than expected in May, as surging AI-related exports helped buffer the economy against disruption from the Iran war. Exports rose 19.4% from a year earlier in U.S. dollar value terms, customs data showed Tuesday, accelerating from the 14.1% gain in April. Economists polled by Reuters had pegged growth at 15%. Imports growth momentum continued to build, expanding 27.4% in May, the outpacing from 25.3% in April, beating economists' forecast for a 25% growth. The import surge has largely been driven by higher input costs and narrowly concentrated in select categories, particularly semiconductor chips and gold, and "hardly a sign of rebalancing," according to economists at Bank of America Global Research. "With weak overall demand and ongoing domestic substitution, genuine trade rebalancing remains distant," BofA economists said, adding that the export boom has reduced Beijing's urgency for meaningful policy stimulus. China's economy has shown signs of faltering following a strong first-quarter. Growth slowed across the board in April, with industrial production and retail sales posting their weakest gains in years. In May, the official gauge on manufacturing activity also slowed to 50, the threshold separating expansion from contraction. Chinese exporters have so far weathered the fallout from the Middle East conflict, with overseas buyers rushing to lock in supplies before energy costs climb further. But economists have warned the tailwind may be short-lived — once overseas stockpiling momentum fades, sluggish domestic consumption will be unable to fill the gap. "We expect the AI boom to support production and trade," said Xiangrong Yu, chief C...

OpenAI于当地时间周一宣布已秘密提交首次公开募股(IPO)申请,这或将成为近十年最具标志性的上市事件之一。另据 Business Insider报道,OpenAI首席执行官山姆·奥尔特曼旗下的另一家公司Tools for Humanity正进行裁员。 大众更为熟知的是Tools for Humanity公司旗下的身份验证项目World,以及 配套设备 —— 那个外形怪异的银色球形眼球扫描器。该公司的设想是,通过独一无二的虹膜扫描技术完成身份核验。在奥尔特曼一手打造的 自动化 程度日益提升的当下,这项技术能够区分真人操作与 机器人 程序行为。同时,企业也会借助虹膜扫描结果核实用户身份,为自家加密货币Worldcoin的交易提供支持。 尽管该公司的发展目标模糊且饱受质疑,但仍拿到了融资,投后估值达25亿美元(IT之家 注: 现汇率约合169.87亿元人民币),Andreessen Horowitz、Bain Capital等多家布局区块链领域的投资机构均参与注资。但如今,由于营收陷入困境,这家公司开始缩减规模。 在美国,像Tinder、Zoom和Docusign这样的公司都与奥尔特曼的这个副业项目达成了合作。而在海外市场,Tools for Humanity公司则深陷监管与伦理争议。例如在肯尼亚、印度以及中国香港地区,该公司曾以价值 50 美元的 Worldcoin 作为报酬,收集民众的生物识别数据。肯尼亚随后以隐私和金融风险为由,全面叫停Worldcoin在当地的运营;韩国也因该公司涉嫌违反当地隐私法规,对其处以83万美元(现汇率约合564万元人民币)罚款。 想来也不难理解:没人愿意为了价值50美元的加密货币,就把个人生物数据交给一家初创企业。
Hard times – and British-style pubs – are squeezing restaurant-bars that once thrived in cities everywhere. Can they innovate to keep pace with change? From rowdy spit-and-sawdust joints to dimly lit high-end eateries, from chains equipped with tablets to family-run holes in the wall, Japan’s izakaya restaurant-bars are as varied as the cuisine they serve.

Hard times – and British-style pubs – are squeezing restaurant-bars that once thrived in cities everywhere. Can they innovate to keep pace with change? From rowdy spit-and-sawdust joints to dimly lit high-end eateries, from chains equipped with tablets to family-run holes in the wall, Japan’s izakaya restaurant-bars are as varied as the cuisine they serve. They are also a bellwether, reflecting strength and shifts in the wider economy. Now that economy is squeezing them harder than ever, pushing closures to record rates. The damage is spread unevenly: amid the struggles, some flourish, while a chain of unlikely alternatives expands. Continue reading...
