In this article CAAS Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT A cargo ship is loading and unloading foreign trade containers at Qingdao Port in Qingdao, Shandong Province, China, Jan. 13, 2026. Cfoto | Future Publishing | Getty Images China's trade surplus rose to its highest on record in the combined January-February period while exports massively beat expectations, underscoring the resilience of the world's second-largest economy despite trade tensions with the U.S. China typically combines January and February trade data to smooth distortions from the shifting Lunar New Year holiday. China's trade balance surged to $213.62 billion, compared with expectations of $179.6 billion and up from the 114.1 billion seen in December. Exports from China rose 21.8% year on year in the combined January-February period, beating the 7.1% growth expected by economists polled by Reuters. Imports rose 19.8% in the first two months from a year earlier, against expectations of a 6.3% growth, customs data showed Wednesday. The trade figures come after China's consumer inflation recorded its biggest jump in more than three years, supported by spending during an extended holiday. China's CPI rose 1.3% in February from a year earlier and surpassed economists' forecasts for a 0.8% increase in a Reuters poll. The increase, following a 0.2% rise in January, marked the strongest rebound since January 2023. The data also comes after China concluded its "Two Sessions" policy meeting, where Chinese Premier Li Qiang acknowledged the impact of U.S. tariffs while outlining economic targets on Thursday. Beijing and Washington have been locked in a trade war since U.S. President Donald Trump returned to the Oval Office in January 2025, with both sides raising and lowering tariffs on each other's goods throughout 2025. However, relations improved after a meeting between Trump and Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the APEC summit in Busan, South Korea, in October. U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods cur...

短短一周， 龙虾 FOMO 席卷了全球。 受此影响，Mac mini 在各大电商平台迅速售罄，苹果官网显示，现在下单最快要到 4 月底才能到手； 并且一些二手平台上甚至衍生出了「租 Mac mini 养龙虾」的服务。 QQ、企业微信相继宣布接入内测，各大云厂商纷纷跟进。抢到 Mac mini、完成部署的人， 却在社区里发出了同一个灵魂拷问： 然后呢？ 这个问题其实并不奇怪。OpenClaw 是由奥地利开发者 Peter Steinberger 创建的开源 AI Agent 框架，支持在本地硬件运行，可通过 WhatsApp、QQ、企业微信等通讯工具直接下达指令，让 AI 真正「动手干活」，而不只是聊天回复。 Peter Steinberger 它的能力边界，理论上几乎没有上限。但正因如此，对于大多数人来说，对着一个「什么都能做」的工具，反而不知道从哪里下手。 所以我们搜集了一批正在「认真养龙虾」的人，看看 这只「龙虾」到底能玩出多少花样。 把 OpenClaw 塞进复古拨号电话，拿起听筒就能和「老爷爷」聊天 对极客来说，OpenClaw 最有趣的地方是它对硬件几乎没有门槛要求。 一部 25 美元的二手 Android 手机， 赋予其完整的硬件访问权限，就能跑起一个具备完整功能的 AI Agent。Reddit 社区的网友也随即展开了更多想象：比如廉价手机批量组成 AI 集群，可用于各类自动化任务。 🔗 https://x.com/marshallrichrds/status/2020041410079051963 别急，还有高手。一位开发者用树莓派 Zero 2W、WM8960 麦克风扬声器模组和 PiSugar 可充电电池，搭建出一台真正能放进口袋的私人 AI 助手， 整机成本约 100 至 120 美元。 使用方式极简：按下按钮录音，松开后语音自动转录并发送给 AI，响应结果实时显示在 LCD 屏幕上，还可选择播放语音朗读。系统通过 Tailscale 安全组网，崩溃后自动重启，开机即运行。目前项目代码已开源，并迅速引来一批跟着复刻的玩家。 🔗 https://www.reddit.com/r/openclaw/comments/1rc3ejr/openclaw\_personal\_assistant\_device/ 更反差的玩法，是把这套系统接上一台复古拨...

離島渡輪六主要航線擬下月加價 多名區議員反對 To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video 【有線新聞】運輸署建議6條主要離島渡輪航線下月調整票價，部份單程票價加幅逾一成二，包括中環至長洲航線，多名區議員表示反對。 離島區議員劉舜婷：「自從通關之後，居民島上旅遊業生意已經一落千丈，若再加價吸引不到遊客過來，另外有些居民稱再加價，居民不會再搬進來離島住。」 離島區議員吳文傑：「長洲航線基本上不會蝕本，我們很多人去長洲，大家都知道如果過時過節你要排隊，第一艘船坐不到，要坐第二艘船，在這個情況，這個加幅我不同意。」 離島區議員劉展鵬：「地緣政治的影響，我們可見的未來短期內油價不斷上升，油價去到一些位置，政府就要介入做對沖補貼，否則油價不斷上升，船公司營運帳目一定不理想。」

Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) has pushed back against reports stating that CEO Mark Zuckerberg sidelined Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang. Meta Denies Reports Of AI Leadership Shake-Up On Monday, Meta spokesperson Andy Stone took to X and dismissed reports suggesting Zuckerberg had pushed aside Wang following the creation of a new applied AI engineering group. Stone addressed the claims, calling them misinformation stemming from an earlier report that was later corrected. “Totally false,” Stone wrote, adding that a major Indian newspaper “wrongly published something similar, then corrected. Now it's being recycled… It's still false.” He added that Wang helped build the new AI team and continues to lead key initiatives, saying his influence inside the company is actually expanding. "Alex helped create the new team, still runs MSL and TBD, has growing not waning influence. This is all so silly," Stone said. Confusion Stemmed From AI Team Restructuring The speculation appears to trace back to a March 2026 article by a major Indian newspaper that interpreted Meta's new AI engineering group as a sign that Wang's role was shrinking. Subsequent coverage clarified that the new unit works closely with Wang-led teams, including Meta Superintelligence Labs. Wang joined Meta after the company struck a roughly $14 billion deal tied to his startup Scale AI, making him a central figure in the company's push toward advanced AI systems. Previous Reports Highlight Internal AI Tensions Earlier reports also hinted at internal pressure around the company's AI efforts. A December 2025 report from the Financial Times said Wang had told colleagues he felt "suffocated" by the level of oversight from Zuckerberg. Still, Wang has continued to publicly outline Meta's AI ambitions. Speaking at an AI summit earlier this year, he said the company's vision for "personal superintelligence" is technology designed to help people pursue goals, build healthier habits and strengthen relationships.
