On April 7, less than two hours before US President Donald Trump’s declared deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz expired, a two-week ceasefire was announced after being floated by Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.

According to Iranian officials, Tehran’s acceptance came after a last-minute intervention by China. The breakthrough came seven days after China and...

hapabapa/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Back in November of last year, I decided to downgrade shares of Bed Bath & Beyond, Inc. ( BBBY ) from a ‘hold’ to a ‘sell.’ At the time, I pointed out deteriorating fundamentals for the business. The company had exhibited a sharp decline in active customers and revenue. Profitability looked challenged also. Although management was initiating certain cost-cutting initiatives, not to mention investments in AI and the blockchain, I do not believe that was enough to offset the weakness that the company exhibited. My call ended up proving to be spot-on. While the S&P 500 has risen 0.7% since then, shares of this interesting company have plunged 17.8%. This is even after factoring in a 10.8% surge in share price on April 8th after management announced an interesting acquisition. The fact of the matter is that there is a lot of uncertainty when it comes to Bed Bath & Beyond right now. On the positive side of things, we have a business that is investing heavily in opportunities that it believes will create significant shareholder value. On top of this, the company has a significant surplus of cash on its books. This makes it low risk in the near term. But on the other hand, core operations continue to worsen. And when you add on top of this continued cash outflows, it is certainly not a prospect for the faint of heart. To be honest with you, I really want to root for the company. Some of the investments it continues to make have the potential to pay off. But until such time that we can see some form of stabilization for the company, which we haven't seen just yet but are getting closer to, I believe that taking a bearish approach is justified. Of course, that picture could change as new data comes in. In fact, with earnings coming out on April 27th for the first quarter of the company's 2026 fiscal year, and with analysts expecting an improvement on both the top and bottom lines, there could be some potential here. But out of an ab...

Banepx/iStock via Getty Images By Benjamin Schroeder , Senior Rates Strategist Oil price spike pushes ECB out of its 'good place' The short ends of the interest rate curves have been the most impacted by the Iran conflict and the energy price spike, as fears of a 2022 repeat swept through the market. A rate-cutting bias has morphed into expectations of as many as three European Central Bank (ECB) rate hikes by the end of the year. While a ceasefire has calmed the situation, the ECB signalling a readiness to act on any signs of second-round effects taking hold keeps the possibility of a first rate hike as early as April still in play. We think that the additional information that the ECB will have at that point will be rather limited, arguing for a wait at least until June. If we follow our base case scenario, we think the ECB will continue to signal vigilance but will eventually manage to keep rates steady. But we also have to acknowledge that at this stage, ECB policymaking is more about managing expectations. For now, the picture presented by longer-term inflation swaps remains relatively benign. But this can still change as the crisis evolves. Uncertainty leaves its marks in money markets, but no signs of stress The overall uncertainty and risk aversion in the market have also left their mark on money markets. We have seen the 2y German Schatz start to outperform more noticeably versus swaps as the conflict escalated further. That is a classic sign of flight-to-quality, although there was also a directional component to it over the past month. There has been a shift to shorter maturities amid the uncertainty around the crisis and the ECB’s policy response. Signs of actual strains in money markets and the functioning of funding markets, however, remain limited. In repo markets, the overnight GC pooling rates had dipped back to the ECB deposit facility rate for the latter part of March, having previously sat around 1-2bp above. The quarter-end itself, however, appe...

Almeida theatre, London Anya Reiss packs the marriage scandal plot with inspired ideas, from convincing talk of Instagram to a look at sexual dynamics in the crosshairs of contemporary capitalism Who would Henrik Ibsen’s Nora be in 21st-century Britain? Would her husband, Torvald still be a bank manager and she his “little squirrel” housewife? Transposing this drama of 19th-century proto-feminism into the present day is a tricky business, partly because the gendered confinements of Nora and Torvald’s “ideal” middle-class marriage are built on thoroughly old-fashioned values: a husband who prides himself as the sole breadwinner, a wife who would spark social scandal if she left her marital home. Adapter Anya Reiss does a heroic job of reimagining this story for modern times, and half pulls it off. Continue reading...

四位知情人士向路透社透露， 特斯拉 正在开发一款 全新的小型低价电动 SUV 。 消息人士称，特斯拉近几周已与供应商接触，就这款紧凑型 SUV 的计划细节展开讨论 —— 该车将是一款全新车型，而非现有 Model 3 或 Model Y 的改款版本。双方会谈涉及制造工艺以及各类零部件的规格参数。 其中三位消息人士表示，这款紧凑型 SUV 将 在中国生产 ；另有一人称，特斯拉还计划后续将产能扩展至美...
四位知情人士向路透社透露， 特斯拉 正在开发一款 全新的小型低价电动 SUV 。 消息人士称，特斯拉近几周已与供应商接触，就这款紧凑型 SUV 的计划细节展开讨论 —— 该车将是一款全新车型，而非现有 Model 3 或 Model Y 的改款版本。双方会谈涉及制造工艺以及各类零部件的规格参数。 其中三位消息人士表示，这款紧凑型 SUV 将 在中国生产 ；另有一人称，特斯拉还计划后续将产能扩展至美国和欧洲。两位消息人士透露，该车长度将为 4.28 米 ，明显短于特斯拉销量最高的 Model Y SUV（约 4.78 米）。 这一项目启动之前，特斯拉 CEO 埃隆・马斯克曾在 2024 年决定取消一款备受期待的低价电动汽车项目，转而将公司重心放在无人驾驶出租车与人形机器人上。目前的关键问题在于，此次开发小型 SUV 的最新举动，是否标志着战略重回面向大众市场的有人驾驶电动汽车，还是这款新车型会更贴合特斯拉的全自动驾驶愿景。 一位熟悉新车项目的人士与一位了解特斯拉当前产品理念的员工表示，这款车型 有可能同时兼顾两种用途 。该特斯拉员工拒绝证实或否认任何具体车型的细节，但称总体而言，公司目前计划打造的车型将以无人驾驶为核心，但 保留人工驾驶选项 。 该人士表示，尽管特斯拉目标是实现全系车型全自动驾驶，但公司也意识到，全球许多市场在未来数年内都难以实现无人驾驶汽车的大规模普及，也难以获得监管层面的认可。保留为特定车型配备或不配备驾驶操控装置的选项，有助于提升销量，并确保特斯拉汽车工厂能维持接近满负荷运转。 在特斯拉追逐无人驾驶未来的同时，部分分析师预测，作为其营收主要来源的传统电动汽车销量将连续第三年下滑。截至目前，特斯拉仅在美国得克萨斯州奥斯汀运营少量无人驾驶出租车，且多数车辆副驾驶位仍配有人类安全监督员。 特斯拉未就新车计划置评。 四位知情该项目的人士称，项目仍处于 早期开发阶段 。路透社无法确认特斯拉是否已批准该车投产。 特斯拉历史上曾多次启动产品开发，但最终长期延期甚至取消。例如，特斯拉 2017 年就展出过 Roadster 超跑与 Semi 重卡的概念车，但至今既未量产这款跑车，也未大规模生产 Semi 重卡。 责任编辑：郭明煜
