Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen on Thursday slammed as “indecent” reported attempts by an American to pay locals US$200,000 each to sign a petition calling for Greenland to join the United States. US President Donald Trump has repeatedly said the US needs to annex the Danish autonomous territory to ensure national security. “A foreign individual is offering money for a signature to incorporate Greenland into another country. That is not just deeply worrying. It is indecent,”...

"Stunning Quarter": Highest Earnings Growth In Over Two Decades Yesterday, Deutsche Bank's head of thematic research published his latest chartbook, "The Great 2026 Reset," which delves into the market and political implications of the Iran conflict ( available here to pro subs ). One key topic explored by Reid is the remarkable US Q1 earnings season. As we previewed ahead of the start of reporting seasons, earnings are significantly exceeding consensus estimates across all metrics, despite a high bar. S&P 500 earnings growth is projected to accelerate sharply from 13.4% in Q4 to 24.6% in Q1 – a four-year high and a level rarely seen outside of post-shock recoveries. Excluding special factors, this represents arguably the strongest earnings growth in two decades. The AI boom is a clear contributor, but strength is widespread, with double-digit growth seen in average and median companies, and all 11 sectors posting positive growth for the first time in four years. This strong performance has in many places been driven by higher prices amid supply constraints, surging demand within the AI value chain, and other disruptions. In light of these robust Q1 results, DB has raised its 2026 EPS forecast from $320 to $342, driven by strong Q1 beats, gravity-defying performance in MCG & Tech, and higher oil and commodity prices. Reid says it's worth noting that while the US equity market has outperformed many markets since the start of the Iran conflict, this has only moved it from the bottom quartile to the middle of the global pack year-to-date. Even with a surge since the conflict began, tech performance over the past six months (since the end of October) shows only a modest increase. Given current high valuations, strong earnings growth is helping the US market "grow into" these valuations, yet other markets have demonstrated notably better performance over the last 18 months.

格隆汇5月8日｜欧洲央行执委施纳贝尔周四表示，如果伊朗战争对通胀留下更持久的印记，欧洲央行将不得不提高利率。施纳贝尔表示，“快速增长”的企业计划提价，供应链面临中断，家庭正在调整预期。她表示，由于上一次通胀冲击的记忆犹新，当前危机不会需要那么长时间才能感受到。“如果能源价格冲击扩大，货币政策将需要收紧，以抑制威胁中期价格稳定的第二轮效应风险，”施纳贝尔在伦敦的一次演讲中表示，“近几周来，这一风险已经增加。”施纳贝尔还表示，随着不利的供应冲击变得更加频繁，保护央行的独立性至关重要，以便它们能够在需要时收紧政策。她表示，欧洲央行“已明确表示”，将采取必要措施，将目前3%的通胀率拉回目标水平。

President indicated that deal had materialised, but truth was that Saudi Arabia had stopped US use of its bases When Donald Trump abruptly pulled the plug on “Project Freedom” , the scheme to open the strait of Hormuz, barely a day after it had been announced, he gave the impression that an opportunity for a peace deal had materialised that could not be missed. To the surprise of nobody who has been following the US’s recent adventures in geopolitics, Trump’s spin concealed a lot of the underlying reality. It turns out that Trump suspended Project Freedom after Saudi Arabia stopped the US military from using its bases or airspace to carry out the operation, which involved giving air cover to commercial shipping sailing through the strait.

油价震荡上行，因迹象显示美伊达成和平协议的难度可能比预期更大。 鉴于伊朗对霍尔木兹海峡仍然保持较强控制力，布伦特原油徘徊于102美元附近，西德克萨斯中质油（WTI）期货报约每桶96美元。 报道称，美国将寻求重启此前因盟友反应冷淡而暂停的海峡护航行动。 截至纽约时间下午1：38，7月交割的布伦特原油期货结算价上涨0.43%至101.71美元； 6月交割的WTI期货上涨1.3%至96.35美元。 责任编辑：丁文武

The Ultimate Picture Palace opened in 1911 and is housed in a Grade II-listed building which is in need of renovation The survival of one of the UK’s oldest independent cinemas is under threat while its landlord, Oxford University’s Oriel College, refuses to extend its lease to allow vital renovations. The Ultimate Picture Palace in east Oxford opened in 1911, and has entertained generations of students and residents, including the Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes. It sells tickets for its 106 seats through an old-fashioned box office window to patrons queueing on the street, and its screen is behind a manually-opened curtain. Continue reading...

中东冲突推高汽油价格之际，预算趋紧的美国消费者令零售、餐饮和包装食品行业的高管愈发担忧。 “他们到了月底基本上就没钱了，”卡夫亨氏首席执行官Steve Cahillane本周在接受采访时表示，“我们看到低收入群体出现负现金流，正在动用储蓄。” 汽油价格上涨带来的额外压力正冲击美国消费者。 自疫情以来，尽管通胀高企，美国消费者支出仍持续超出预期，支撑了经济增长并打消了衰退担忧。但燃料成本上升可能让消费者难以承受。 “伊朗战争放大了消费者对生活成本的担忧，” 惠而浦 首席执行官Marc Bitzer周四在与分析师的电话会议上表示。 这家洗衣机和干衣机制造商表示，原本指望在美国严冬导致购物活动放缓后，销售能够有所回升，但战争导致消费者信心大幅下滑。公司称，这导致行业需求下滑15%，程度类似本世纪初全球金融危机时期。 麦当劳首席执行官Chris Kempczinski表示，消费者信心可能正在恶化。 在快餐领域，麦当劳首席执行官Chris Kempczinski称消费者信心未见改善，甚至可能正在走弱。公司提到“焦虑情绪加剧”，以及汽油价格对低收入消费者造成更大冲击。 堂食餐饮同样受到影响。 “对价格更敏感、更注重性价比的顾客似乎更多地选择了待在家里，”Dine Brands Global Inc．首席执行官John Peyton本周在财报电话会上表示。这家拥有Applebee’s和IHOP连锁品牌的公司称，其他收入群体尚未发现类似的支出缩减。 眼镜零售商Warby Parker Inc．表示，年轻消费者正感受到高于往常的失业率和学生贷款账单带来的压力。 根据美国汽车协会的数据，目前汽油均价为每加仑4.56美元，为2022年7月以来最高水平。随着消费者将更多收入用于燃料支出，用于外出就餐等可选消费的资金减少。尽管退税金额的增加有助于缓解冲击，但消费者信心仍跌至纪录低点。 为维持支出，美国人的储蓄正在减少，3月储蓄率降至三年来最低水平。经济学家警告，伊朗战争带来的冲击可能会逐步推高包括食品杂货在内的多种商品价格。 汽油价格已升至2022年以来最高。 纽约联储近期发布的研究显示，低收入消费者经通胀调整后的汽油消费已减少，以控制支出。 联信银行首席经济学家Bill Adams表示，短期内，美国人可以动用储蓄或刷信用卡，但如果高油价持续越久，调整支出模式以平衡预算的消费者就会越多。 P...

格隆汇5月8日｜欧洲央行执委施纳贝尔：股票市场价格与全球形势之间似乎存在脱节。

Paris prosecutors called for Elon Musk to face charges over the functioning of his social media platform X, according to a statement on Thursday. The prosecutors also called on investigating magistrates to charge former X Corp. Chief Executive Officer Linda Yaccarino as well as companies related to the platform, including xAI. The case is examining allegations including denial of crimes against humanity through Grok, aiding and abetting the possession of child sexual abuse material, disseminating online non-consensual deepfakes of a sexual nature, and operating an online platform to facilitate illicit transactions as part of an organized crime group. The matter was initially led by Paris prosecutors but they decided to task investigative judges with wider probing powers to pursue it. Representatives of X didn’t immediately respond to emails seeking comment. Read More: Musk Snubs French in Case Over Grok Sexual Images, AFP Says
