Major brands like HP, Dell, ASUS, and others are facing mounting pressure to raise prices as the global memory chip shortage is driving up component costs. A new report suggests that the surge in DRAM and NAND prices is squeezing manufacturers that rely on these components for their PC products. Memory is a critical component of modern PCs, so the recent shortage is affecting the cost of finished devices. Why are memory prices suddenly soaring? The current shortage is mostly caused by the explosive growth of artificial intelligence and its infrastructure. Major chipmakers such as Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron have shifted manufacturing capacity towards high-bandwidth memory (HBM) that is used in AI servers. This leaves less memory for traditional DRAM and NAND that is used in consumer-grade products like smartphones, PCs, and other similar gadgets. Laptop price hikes have already begun Owing to the ongoing crunch, some companies have already started raising the prices of their PCs: ASUS is set to raise laptop prices by 15% to 25%. Acer has flagged a potential price hike of around 10% to 20% on certain models. HP says it might need to raise the prices. Dell and Lenovo reportedly bumped the price tag for higher-end commercial notebooks by up to 20% and 25% earlier this year. Recommended Videos Similarly, even Apple has raised the prices for its latest laptops. The new MacBook Pro with the M5 Pro chip now starts $200 higher than the previous generation, while the M5 Max variant is seeing a $400 hike. What’s next? While brands might be turning towards Chinese manufacturers for memory chips, the rising prices could affect demand. Companies worry that households may delay upgrading their computers if prices climb too quickly. Omdia forecasts the laptop market could fall by up to 12.5% this year. With DRAM prices still on the rise, industry leaders expect the pressure on PC prices to continue well into 2026 and possibly 2027.

Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior recently praised his players' unity after they began gathering in a circle before each half - but there was an unlikely addition to the Blues' huddle prior to their game against Newcastle. Referee Paul Tierney found himself right in the middle of the hosts' pre-match huddle on Saturday evening, much to the bemusement of some of Chelsea's players. Cole Palmer jokingly wrapped his arms around Tierney before staring quizzically at the official, who merely smiled back at the England international as Trevoh Chalobah and Enzo Fernandez watched on in amusement. "Tierney just stood in the middle of it," former England midfielder Fara Williams told Final Score. "He probably heard everything that was said. Cole Palmer is looking at him and giving him the eye." Former Premier League assistant referee referee Darren Cann told BBC Sport he had never seen anything as strange "in 50 years of watching football". But Cann was able to shed some light on the incident, saying: "As it was Newcastle's kick-off, the referee [took] control of the ball on the halfway line and was there to prevent any potential issues. "When it is their kick-off, there is no particular issue. However, when their opponents have to kick off, there is potential for confrontation."

Key Points EV owners are likely to jump at the chance to have a car that "fills up" as quickly as possible. This makes Tesla's proprietary battery-making efforts vulnerable. 10 stocks we like better than BYD Company › Waiting around for an electric vehicle (EV) to charge can be irritating. But that irritation might have just been greatly reduced by Chinese EV and hybrid maker BYD (OTC: BYDDY). Earlier this month, it revealed its Blade Battery 2.0 and Flash Charging system. Used together, the company claims, they can bring a compatible vehicle from a 10% charge to 70% in roughly five minutes and from 20% to 97% in approximately 12. This would suggest BYD has a game-changing EV product on its hands. Is it reasonable for Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) investors to be worried, and maybe even consider selling their stock? Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » BYD's charging aims to be quick as lightning First, a note. Tesla and BYD are not direct competitors in the U.S., where the former is prominent and the latter is effectively unavailable. That's mainly because our government has slapped a 100% tariff on EVs built in the Asian country. The two are actually collaborators in some respects. Like BYD, Tesla is working hard to develop its in-house battery unit, but its strategy differs substantially from its vertically integrated Chinese peer. The American auto maker manufactures some batteries in-house, supplementing them with products from outside manufacturers -- including BYD. All of BYD's cars, meanwhile, use BYD batteries. Tesla's latest battery cell, the 4680, is extremely reliable and has a relatively long range when charged. Its charging time is slower than that of Blade Battery 2.0. However, in contrast to the 12 minutes it takes for BYD's power pack to charge from 10% to 97%, Tesla batteries n...

The tech industry’s layoffs and hiring freezes: all of the news According to Reuters, Meta is looking to offset spending on AI and data centers with a massive round of layoffs. Sources familiar with the matter say the company could lay off as much as 20 percent of its staff, eliminating roughly 15,800 positions. That would be the largest series of layoffs at the company since it terminated 22,000 workers over just a few months between November 2022 and early 2023. Word of the potential downsizing comes after Meta signaled that it was all but giving up on VR and the Metaverse, slashing budgets and closing studios. Instead, the company has been spending big to attract AI talent, build data centers, and acquire companies like Moltbook. Amid all this, the company has also repeatedly found itself in hot water over its smart glasses, chatbots, and its impact on teens. Meta did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Jarrod Bowen has a quick word with TNT Sports on the importance of momentum. “Over the last few weeks … FA Cup games are important … to have a run to change our season … league games, going to Fulham and winning 1-0 … sometimes you need to win away, a little bit ugly, which we haven’t done enough this season … to show we have that type of performance … a cup run is always something for us, and these fans … tonight is going to be difficult, we know that, but we have to step up … the manager coming in has been a massive help … the players we bought in January … how we’re set up … attacking … better defending … conceding two, three goals a game it’s nigh-on impossible … so winning 1-0 away is massive … the team spirit is so much better … you can see it in the performances on the pitch … against Man City you almost have to be perfect … but we’re in a moment … the fans will be up for it and there’s almost nothing to lose … we want to get out of that bottom three … we’re in a good place … the fans can see us giving everything … we have to keep fighting … that’s the only way it’s going to change.” Bowen speaking there so well, with clarity and passion. West Ham fans will be delighted to hear what he says, and how he says it. Even if tonight doesn’t go well for them against title-chasing City, that’s got to give them hope for the rest of the relegation run-in.

MicroStockHub The finance ministers of Japan and South Korea on Saturday said that they are willing to take appropriate steps to defend their respective currencies, which have sharply depreciated against the U.S. dollar amid ongoing tensions in the Middle East. Following a meeting in Tokyo, Japanese Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama and her South Korean counterpart Koo highlighted the importance of being “vigilant” and “agile” when implementing policy decisions to support economic growth and maintain financial stability. The ministers of the two Asian neighbors met for the 10th round of the Japan–Korea Finance Ministerial Dialogue on Saturday at a time when the Korean won ( USD:KRW ) and the Japanese yen ( USD:JPY ) have reached record lows this month. With the ongoing U.S.-Israeli attacks on Iran weighing on the currencies of countries heavily dependent on imported oil, the ministers raised serious concerns over the rapid decline of their currency values. "Furthermore, they reaffirmed that they will closely monitor ​foreign exchange markets and continue to take appropriate actions against excessive volatility and disorderly movements in exchange rates," a joint statement from the ministers read.

伦敦时间凌晨一点，市场的疯狂把迈克尔·布朗从梦中惊醒。他手机就放在床头，不断的消息提醒让它几乎一直不停嗡嗡作响：布伦特原油突破每桶100美元；突破110美元；纳斯达克期货下跌2%；日经指数暴跌5%。 于是，身为经纪公司Pepperstone资深策略师的布朗翻身下床，打开电脑并开始接听亚洲客户潮水般涌来的电话。他说：“当时已经开始出现了一些恐慌情绪。” 这是周一，也就是伊朗战争爆发的第10天，投资者突然意识到了中东石油生产中断的严重程度。恐慌情绪一度将原油价格推高了30%以上，身处新加坡家中的Reed Capital Partners首席投资官杰拉尔德·甘也被吵醒了。Reed的一些客户承受了巨额股票损失，公司员工急需指导，天还没亮就一次次打电话给他，称“我们需要保护投资组合。” 一艘油轮在伊拉克水域遭袭后起火燃烧。 在美国的产油区，资深大宗商品交易员丹尼斯·基斯勒忙于处理一个完全不同的问题。他在BOK Financial Securities的许多客户都是页岩油生产商的高管，当他们看着原油价格在隔夜交易中飙升时，越来越急于锁定这些高价。从周一早上6点走进俄克拉荷马城办公室的那一刻起，交易单就接踵而至，基斯勒发现自己不得不同时接听三部电话。到中午时分，他的嗓子已经哑了。 过去两周战争引发市场剧烈波动，韩国股票市场创纪录崩盘、欧洲天然气期货两天内飙升68%、印度卢比和埃及镑跌至历史低点，全球投资者都处于紧绷状态。有人大赚一笔，也有人损失惨重，就连金融界一些大名鼎鼎的公司都未能全身而退，包括品浩（PIMCO）、城堡和ExodusPoint Capital Management。 基斯勒说：“总有人会受伤。在这样的时刻，如果你不集中注意力，操作反了的话，两秒钟内就能亏一百万美元。” 令交易员感到震惊的不只是波动的速度，还有那种剧烈的“甩鞭效应”。市场会仅仅因为一条新闻就陷入动荡，哪怕它是错误的，比如美国能源部长克里斯·赖特周二发帖称海军护送一艘油轮通过了霍尔木兹海峡。 而就在前一天，美国WTI原油期货在特朗普暗示战争可能接近尾声后几乎把31%的涨幅尽数回吐，这是至少四十年来最大的盘中反转。标普500指数在最后一小时飙升，创下了一个月来的最大涨幅。 过去几天局势稍有缓和，然而，与一年前特朗普宣布对等关税所引发的短暂崩盘不同，市场上许多人预计这种超常规的波动将持续数周，甚至好几个...

The debate in the week had been whether Wales considered a performance or result more important this weekend. In the end, the home side delivered both. The elation and relief in the faces of Tandy and his backroom staff and the ovation from the Cardiff crowd demonstrated what this day represented. Wales had conceded 102 points in opening losses to England and France, but there had been significant progress in narrow defeats against Scotland and Ireland. The victory was the next step and long overdue. Wales have ended a 15-match Six Nations losing streak that stretches back three years, or 1,099 days, since the previous victory against Italy in Rome in March 2023. It is a first home success in the tournament in 1,491 days since Wales beat Scotland in February 2022 with 11 successive losses following that. It was only a third win in 28 Tests for Wales since the 2023 World Cup and a second victory for Tandy in nine games, to go alongside the one-point win against Japan in November 2025. Italy coach Gonzalo Quesada predicted Wales would be desperate to win and he was proved correct. It was a step too far for the Italians after the historic victory against England in Rome last weekend. The Azzurri have finished fourth in this year's table after failing to achieve two unique trebles at the Principality Stadium. Italy could not manage a third successive triumph on Welsh soil to follow up the successes of 2022 and 2024, or a first hat-trick of wins in a single Six Nations after home wins against Scotland and England.

Meta Platforms Stock Dips on AI Model Worries. Time to Buy? The Motley Fool

Key Points Palantir is hitting on all cylinders, but its stock is very pricey. ServiceNow is tightly ingrained in its customers' data and is seeing strong AI growth. Salesforce has positioned itself as a launchpad for agentic AI. 10 stocks we like better than Palantir Technologies › It's been a tough year in the software space, but one stock that has shone is Palantir Technologies(NASDAQ: PLTR). While most software-as-a-service (SaaS) stocks have seen steep sell-offs, Palantir shares have doubled in value over the past year. Meanwhile, the company has been on a tear, with it reporting 10 straight quarters of accelerating revenue growth. Palantir cut its teeth as a leading government defense contractor; its Gotham platform can gather and analyze data from a large array of sources and help unearth prospective threats. The U.S. government remains its largest customer, and this business continues to grow at a brisk pace. The company continues to win new contracts, and last quarter saw its U.S. government revenue climb 66% year over year to $570 million. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire?

The company's secret sauce is its Foundry Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), which gathers data and puts it into an ontology, linking that data to real-world assets and processes from which customers can then apply the AI model of their choice.

Meta (META) Plans Massive Layoffs as AI Spending Soars Wall Street Pit

Artificial intelligence (AI) investing continues to be a great way to capitalize on a proven growth trend. There are several great stocks investors should be considering in March, but I'm going to focus my discussion on four of them. All four of these stocks are direct beneficiaries of AI spending, and each looks like a great buy now. 1. Microsoft Microsoft (MSFT 1.57%) is spending big to shore up its AI-related offerings, building up massive data centers associated with its Azure cloud computing platform to power AI workloads. So, how is it benefiting from the AI buildout right now? Microsoft isn't developing its own generative AI model; instead, it's choosing to host any developer that's willing to have their products used on Microsoft's platform. One of its biggest partners is OpenAI. This is creating massive growth for Azure, and its revenue rose 39% year over year in Q2 of fiscal year 2026 (ending Dec. 31).

"Serve Your Country": Uncle Sam Seeks Investment Bankers For 'Economic Defense Unit' The Department of War is reportedly building a 30-person investment banking team, called the "Economic Defense Unit," to deploy $200 billion in private equity over three years into defense companies and, more importantly, war unicorns , as the race to secure the Western Hemisphere and counter China, Russia, and Iran intensifies in the Trump era. Seamfor reviewed a slide deck from the headhunting firm Heidrick & Struggles that says DoW is seeking to stack EDU with bankers from Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan, and Bank of America. The presentation pitches bankers a once-in-a-lifetime chance to "serve your country" and deploy "more capital than most investors deploy in their entire careers," as well as an opportunity to sell a large amount of stock tax-deferred. Seamfor noted that EDU will report to former Cerebrus alums David Lorch and George K. Kollitides II, the former Remington CEO who is now a partner at private equity firm Alvarez & Marsal Capital. Heidrick & Struggles' deck also promises bankers "unmatched access to top-level government officials and privileged information flow—whatever you need, you can get."

财联社3月15日讯（编辑 牛占林） 据央视新闻报道，美国总统特朗普当地时间周六表示，许多国家将派遣军舰，与美国一道确保霍尔木兹海峡航运畅通。但他未具体说明哪些国家已决定参与。 特朗普在其社交平台Truth Social上发文称：“许多国家，尤其是那些受到伊朗试图关闭霍尔木兹海峡影响的国家，将与美利坚合众国一道派遣军舰，确保海峡保持开放和安全。” 他表示，他希望法国、日本、韩国、英国等国以及其他国家能够向该地区派遣舰艇。 他还写道：“与此同时，美国将对相关沿岸地区进行猛烈轰炸，并持续将伊朗的船只和舰艇击沉。” 特朗普声称，无论如何，美国将很快让霍尔木兹海峡“重新开放、安全并实现自由通行”。 在伊朗冲突持续之际，西方国家正在加强其在东地中海地区的军事部署，重点关注塞浦路斯的安全。此前在3月2日，一架伊朗制造的无人机击中了该岛上的一处英国军事基地。 英国方面也在研究向海湾地区追加军事部署的选项。英国国防大臣约翰·希利周四表示，在伊朗加大对船只袭击力度后，英国正在评估更多部署方案。英国国防部发言人周六称，政府正与盟友及合作伙伴讨论“多种方案，以确保该地区航运安全”。 与此同时，法国海军计划向地中海、红海以及可能的霍尔木兹海峡部署约十余艘军舰，其中包括一个航空母舰打击群，以为受冲突威胁的盟友提供防御支持。 法国官员表示，过去一周法国一直与欧洲、亚洲及海湾阿拉伯国家进行磋商，拟制定一项计划，未来由多国军舰为通过霍尔木兹海峡的油轮提供护航。 特朗普还在周四表示，在美以对伊朗战争推高油价的背景下，美国政府正在寻找缓解油价上涨的办法，美方愿意为通过霍尔木兹海峡的商船提供护航，以防其遭到伊朗攻击。 伊朗外长称仅对美以关闭霍尔木兹 对于特朗普的最新声明，伊朗外长阿拉格齐回应称，霍尔木兹海峡目前仍然开放，仅对美国和以色列相关船只及油轮关闭。 他还表示，伊朗最高领袖穆杰塔巴已发表讲话并正在履行职责，本轮冲突并非伊朗发起，伊朗将继续进行防御并在必要情况下持续应对。 阿拉格齐指出，被吹捧的美国“安全伞”如今漏洞百出，不仅没能起到威慑作用，反而引发更多祸端。阿拉格齐说，伊朗呼吁兄弟邻邦驱逐外国侵略者。“这些外来势力唯一关心的就只有以色列。” 在美国轰炸其主要能源枢纽哈尔克岛后，伊朗周六威胁将进一步升级中东战事，称将把该地区任何与美国有关联的设施列为打击目标。 特朗普还曾威胁称，除非伊朗停止在霍尔木...

美国总统特朗普加大对重新开放霍尔木兹海峡的呼吁，称“希望”向伊朗海岸附近地区派遣军舰，以帮助商业船只安全通过。 他在Truth Social上发表的这些评论并未提供具体的时间表。在几小时前，他下令袭击了伊朗位于哈尔克岛上的军事基地，伊朗几乎所有的石油都从该岛出口，美军此举加剧令这场已经持续逾两周的战争有进一步升级的风险。 特朗普在帖子中写道，这座波斯湾岛屿上的军事设施已被“彻底摧毁”，出于“体面原因”，他选择不打击岛上石油基础设施，但如果伊朗“做出任何干扰船只自由安全通过霍尔木兹海峡的行为”，他就会那样做。 2026年3月2日，在美以两国发动“史诗狂怒行动”两天后，伊朗哈尔克岛石油码头的石油装载作业仍在继续。 特朗普在最新帖子中写道：“许多国家，特别是那些受到伊朗企图关闭霍尔木兹海峡影响的国家，将与美国一起派遣军舰以保持海峡开放和安全。”除了提到希望法国、日本、韩国和英国也派遣军舰外，他没有提供更多细节。 特朗普声称，尽管伊朗的军事力量已经“100%被摧毁”，但德黑兰很容易继续利用无人机、水雷和短程导弹威胁船只。他说，美国将“狂轰滥炸”伊朗海岸线以应对这一威胁。 大约是在特朗普发帖的同时，伊朗外交部长阿巴斯·阿拉格齐表示，霍尔木兹海峡仅对来自“敌人”的船只关闭。 在周五夜间和周六，以色列和美国继续打击伊朗，而伊朗则继续攻击海湾阿拉伯国家。 根据政府和非政府组织的统计，自2月28日美国和以色列轰炸伊朗引发战争以来，该地区已有约3750人丧生。总部位于美国的“人权活动人士新闻通讯社”表示，过去两周伊朗有3000多人死亡。黎巴嫩政府表示，在以色列对真主党发动的战争中，约有700人丧生。海湾国家和以色列共有数十人死亡，美国11名军人阵亡。 军事实力远逊于美国和以色列的伊朗正将目标对准邻国以及航运和能源设施，意图在地区和油气市场制造混乱，迫使特朗普结束战斗。由于汽油价格大涨，这位美国领导人在国内面临批评，许多政治对手表示他低估了伊朗的反应和韧性。 由于特朗普释放出的混乱信号以及伊朗持续的对抗，战争持续时间的不确定性正在增加。周五，特朗普表示美国“要打多久就能打多久”，并暗示海军很快将开始护航船只通过霍尔木兹海峡。这与他早些时候关于美国军事目标“已基本完成”的言论形成对比。 周六，以色列国防部长约阿夫·加兰特赞扬了对哈尔克岛的袭击，并表示战争正在进入“决胜阶段”，只要有需要，战...

Jurgen Habermas, best known for his theory of political consensus-building, shaped the discourse of post-war ⁠Germany more than any other popular intellectual. He died on Saturday, aged 96, in Starnberg, ⁠Germany, the publisher Suhrkamp said. Over the course of seven decades, his public interventions – from searing critiques of fascist thought in the 1950s to more recent warnings against resurgent militarism and nationalism in Germany – steered the country at critical junctions. Advertisement Not only his longevity, but also the renewed relevance of his ideas are remarkable in a country where post-war pacifism is waning and the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) has become the second-strongest party in parliament. Born on June 18, 1929 to a bourgeois family in Dusseldorf, Jurgen Habermas underwent two surgeries after birth and in early childhood ‌for a cleft palate. Advertisement A resulting speech impediment is often cited as having influenced his work on communication.
