Chinnapong/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Bitcoin ( BTC-USD ) prices have risen since the U.S.-Israel-Iran conflict erupted a couple of weeks ago, as the cryptocurrency seems to reiterate its geopolitical hedge status again. The world's largest digital currency has been up 4.4% since February 28 but was down 0.97% on Thursday at the time of writing. Bitcoin kicked off the week in a volatile fashion. The cryptocurrency has seen frequent swings since the start of the year. Last week, bitcoin ( BTC-USD ) advanced sharply, climbing to its highest level in roughly a month as renewed momentum lifted the world’s largest cryptocurrency above the $73,000 mark. The rally had pushed bitcoin to levels not seen since early February, signaling a rebound after a period of choppy trading. Market participants have been watching for signs that the cryptocurrency could regain upward momentum following a pullback earlier in the year. The United States and Israel carried out coordinated attacks on Iran in February that killed senior military and government leadership, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, triggering a fierce Iranian response and raising the threat of wider regional conflict. Some hedge fund managers said geopolitical risks were at least partly priced in and that the pullback offered opportunities for dip-buyers and short-covering. Whether that optimism holds may depend on how energy markets and global equities respond in the days ahead.

Liz Allan’s powerful debut novel smells unmistakably like teen spirit. Plunging the reader into the cauldron of suburban malaise that is an Australian seaside resort in 1994, it is narrated collectively by the Bastards, a band of 14-year-old riot grrrls bringing Kurt Cobain’s gospel to their dead-end backwater – in their own eyes, at least. To their schoolmates, they are three fatherless losers, tainted by poverty. But the Bastards don’t care; they’ve got a ticket out of Vincent, “capital of teen pregnancies and absent fathers”. For nine months, their beloved music teacher, Mr P, has been rehearsing them for the Battle of the Bands, a long drive away in the city of Geelong. Admittedly, they suffered a body blow when their lead singer, Lily Lucid, quit a year ago. But Mr P still believes in them. Then word spreads that Lily has reported someone to the cops, and Mr P is suspended. Battle of the Bands is five weeks away and the girls need him behind the wheel of the van they’ve booked to get there. As their dream starts slipping through their fingers, they make it their mission to prove his innocence by identifying the real culprit of the sexual assault against Lily. But they’re barely speaking to her. Through a tapestry of retrospective chapters, the preceding events come into focus: Lily’s victimisation by her mum’s boyfriend, Buddy, her withdrawal into schoolwork before leaving the band. The mystery drives the plot forward: why did they fall out, and what aren’t the Bastards revealing? Is Mr P the predator, or Buddy, whose chummy name only makes him more sinister? double quotation mark The girls’ collective voice is an uncanny exercise in bravado, charged by the defiant spirit of grunge The girls skateboard around town tracking suspects, scoring booze and crashing at each other’s houses. Their collective voice is an uncanny exercise in bravado, charged by the defiant spirit of grunge. “Kurt Cobain says that fitting in is for losers, so we’re proud to be freaks.” Uni...

Li Auto NASDAQ: LI used its fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 earnings call to outline a broad strategic reset centered on improving the effectiveness of its direct sales network, launching a new generation of flagship products, and continuing heavy investment in AI-related technologies. Management also provided fourth-quarter financial results and first-quarter 2026 delivery and revenue guidance. Get Li Auto alerts: Sign Up Direct sales recalibration and “store partner” program CEO Li Xiang said the company spent the past year in what he described as an important period of “strategic adjustment,” with a renewed focus on sales as a core capability. He said Li Auto identified a key issue: it had been applying a “dealership mindset” to manage a direct sales system, rather than running each storefront as a true operating unit. Since the third quarter of last year, Li Auto has focused on improving store rollout quality, strengthening daily store operations, and upgrading training, enablement, and incentives. The company consolidated its sales force by closing or replacing underperforming sites and shifting resources from lower-traffic second-tier malls to higher-potential locations, including top-tier shopping districts and auto hubs, which management said improved store productivity and sales per head. Addressing a question on channel optimization, management disputed a media rumor that it planned to close up to 100 stores, calling it false. The company said it routinely phases out a small number of underperforming stores and reiterated that its channel strategy emphasizes “quality over quantity.” It expects to add new stores, prioritizing top-tier malls and premium auto locations, while shifting focus toward increased store density in higher-tier cities as battery-electric vehicle (BEV) sales ramp. A key change is the store partner program, launched March 1. Management said the program keeps Li Auto committed to direct sales to ensure consistent service and unified na...

奇普・威尔逊警告 CEO 候选人:公司困境源于董事会,而非职位空缺 作者:阿德里亚诺・马尔凯塞 快速摘要 Lululemon 创始人奇普・威尔逊警告潜在 CEO 候选人,公司面临的挑战 源自董事会,而非 CEO 职位空缺 。 运动休闲巨头 Lululemon Athletica 创始人奇普・威尔逊周四在一封致潜在 CEO 申请者的公开信中表示,仅靠新任领导者无法解决他认为公司存在的治理问题。这是他对自己一手创立的公司发起的最新猛烈抨击。 作为公司大股东,威尔逊自去年 10 月以来持续向董事会发难,指责其监管不力、响应迟缓,并不断推动全面改革。 Lululemon 暂未对此置评。 据《华尔街曰报》此前报道,此次争端源于威尔逊认为,Lululemon 的 创意基因与董事会之间的差距日益扩大 ,他认为董事会未能将品牌优势转化为持续的成功。 今年 1 月,威尔逊在领英发文公开斥责公司,称其 “Get Low” 系列紧身裤面料质量低劣、存在透视问题,导致产品一度被官网下架。这一事件也成为他推动董事会治理改革的重要导火索。 自去年 12 月时任 CEO 卡尔文・麦克唐纳宣布将于 1 月底卸任以来,公司一直在寻找新任 CEO。 在周四的信中,威尔逊重申了他认为 Lululemon 需要进行的大规模改革,并借此时机在今年年度股东大会前,宣传他支持的三名董事会提名人选。 3 月早些时候,威尔逊还专门上线了一个网站,以此升级对这家运动服饰公司的施压行动。 责任编辑:郭明煜

The Iran war is forcing a rapid rethink among U.S.-wary global investors, who are increasingly scaling back their 'Sell America' bets and instead seeking sanctuary in the world's largest and most liquid market. Nick Nelson, head of global equity strategy at Absolute Strategy Research, said that in the run-up to the conflict, the U.S. had "pretty much" been the worst performing major market. Since then, it has switched to broadly being the best, he explained. "If you look at what's happened at a regional, at a sector level, at a style level, it is risk-off but it's actually more rotation," Nelson told CNBC's "Squawk Box Europe" Thursday. "Winners have become losers, losers have become winners." The so-called ' Sell America ' trade emerged from the turmoil of U.S. President Donald Trump's sweeping 'Liberation Day' tariff announcements in April 2025, which prompted investors to cut exposure to U.S. assets. Now, though, the war in the Middle East is causing many investors to re-tilt their portfolios, as U.S. markets appear to have weathered the pendulum swings better than European peers. Speaking as oil prices once again rallied above $100 a barrel in early trading on Thursday, Nelson said the U.S. — a net exporter of energy — benefits from the presence of several energy majors. In contrast, Europe and Asia are net importers of oil and gas, with energy companies representing a much smaller segment of stock markets in each region. .SPX 1M mountain S & P 500. The shift has also helped boost the dollar in recent weeks. "There are a lot of advantages, when times are tough, of being the large liquid market that people can basically repatriate assets to," Nelson said. He also highlighted how several defensive sectors — including consumer staples, food, beverage, tobacco, healthcare, and telecoms — have underperformed during recent gyrations. "That's telling me it's really more about a rotation rather than just a straight risk-off," Nelson added. @CL.1 1M mountain West Texas I...

The Trump administration plans to issue temporary waivers for a century-old maritime law requiring American-built ships be used to transport goods between US ports as part of its effort stop surging oil prices, according to people familiar with the matter. The 30-day waivers for the Jones Act would allow foreign tankers to help supply refiners on the East Coast with fuel from the Gulf Coast and elsewhere in the US, according to the people, who were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly. It comes as President Donald Trump considers multiple options to stem the dramatic rise in crude and gasoline amid the war in Iran. On Wednesday, the administration announced it would release 172 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve as part of a coordinated effort with other nations to unleash 400 million barrels into the world market.

Why Meta will launch new chip every 6 months One of Meta’s in-house chips are already deployed Facebook-parent company Meta is the latest tech giant to announce that it is working on custom chips to tackle AI tasks – training and inference. The social media powerhouse has revealed a suite of four in-house AI chips designed to power its massive data centre expansion. With this move, Meta is now placed alongside rivals like Google, Microsoft and Amazon, who have all developed their own specialised chips to reduce their reliance on expensive and supply-hit hardware from vendors like Nvidia and AMD.Meta is moving fast as the company plans to release new versions of its Meta Training and Inference Accelerator (MTIA) chips every six months. The company said that it has developed “a competitive strategy” that prioritise “rapid, iterative development, an inference-first focus, and frictionless adoption by building natively on industry standards.”Meta says that the reason to launch a chip every 6 months is to adapt to evolving AI techniques and technologies. Furthermore, it says that the focus will be on inference rather than carrying out most demanding workloads.“While the industry typically launches a new AI chip every one to two years, we’ve developed the capacity to release ours every six months or less by building on our modular, reusable designs. This accelerated pace enables us to quickly adapt to evolving AI techniques, adopt the latest hardware technologies, and minimize costs associated with developing and deploying new chip generations,” the company explained.“Mainstream chips are typically built for the most demanding workload — large-scale GenAI pre-training — and then applied, often less cost-effectively, to other workloads like GenAI inference. We take the opposite approach: MTIA 450 and 500 are optimized first for GenAI inference, and they can then be used to support other workloads as needed, including ranking and recommendations training and inference, as w...
