格隆汇3月7日｜据伊朗伊斯兰共和国广播电视台（IRIB）：伊朗向美以目标发射新一波导弹。

美国财政部外国资产控制办公室6日发布一份通用许可，有条件放松对委内瑞拉黄金相关交易的制裁。 美国：相关交易合同需适用美国法律 根据该许可，符合条件的美国实体可以与委内瑞拉政府、委内瑞拉矿业总公司或其控制的实体进行与委内瑞拉黄金有关的交易。可以进行的交易涉及黄金的出口、销售、供应、存储、采购、交付或运送至美国、在美国进行精炼、从美国转售或出口等。 根据规定，相关交易合同需要适用美国法律，支付给受制裁对象的资金需要存入美国官方设立的外国政府存款基金或美国财政部指定的其他账户。 该许可禁止涉及债务互换支付、委内瑞拉政府所发行数字货币、与多个特定国家人员或受制裁船只等方面的交易。 美国财政部2019年3月宣布制裁委内瑞拉矿业总公司及其总裁。根据声明，受制裁对象在美国境内的资产将被冻结，美国公民不得与其进行交易。 委代总统承诺：将以“特朗普式的速度” 加快美国获取委内瑞拉矿产资源的进程 据央视新闻报道，美国国务院5日发表声明说，美国与委内瑞拉政府已同意恢复外交和领事关系。 就在此前一天，美国内政部长道格·伯古姆访问委内瑞拉首都加拉加斯，力促委内瑞拉当局向美国开放关键矿产和黄金的开采权。据《纽约时报》报道，伯古姆于3月4日至5日访问委内瑞拉，随行者包括二十多名美国矿业行业公司代表。访问期间伯古姆与委内瑞拉代总统德尔西·罗德里格斯，以及德尔西的哥哥、国民议会议长豪尔赫·罗德里格斯（Jorge Rodríguez）共进晚餐。 罗德里格斯向美方承诺，将以“特朗普式的速度”加快美国获取委内瑞拉矿产资源的进程。她承诺将在未来几天内向委内瑞拉国民议会提交一项新的采矿法案，允许外国公司开采委内瑞拉的黄金、钻石和稀土。 当地时间5日，美国总统特朗普在接见阿根廷足球巨星梅西效力的阿密国际队时提到，委内瑞拉局势已经“稳定”，并称赞委内瑞拉现任代总统德尔西·罗德里格斯。他还说，在对伊朗动武后，美国解决古巴问题只是“早晚的事”。 因美国持续干涉委内瑞拉内政，委内瑞拉于2019年1月与美国断绝外交关系，美驻委使馆外交人员于当年3月全部撤离。 今年1月3日，美军对委内瑞拉发动大规模军事打击，强行控制委总统马杜罗及其妻子并将他们带到美国。1月31日，美国外交使团抵达委内瑞拉首都加拉加斯，双方重启外交接触。 本文来源： 每日经济新闻 风险提示及免责条款 市场有风险，投资需谨慎。本文不构成个人投资建议，也未考虑...

格隆汇3月7日｜“AI的一个重要目标，不是帮大家做点小视频或者写点文章。”全国政协委员、360集团创始人周鸿祎这样定义人工智能的使命。 他说，人类研发AI，终极目的是帮助人类在科学领域取得突破——比如在核聚变领域解决能源问题。“AI的快速发展已经超越了人类对文明、伦理、法律的研究。”全国政协委员、360集团创始人周鸿祎表示，经济学家、社会学家等研究人类文明发展的文科生，恰恰是思考这些问题的关键力量。“如果不补上这一课，技术快速发展会带来很多社会问题。” 周鸿祎说，另一个变化是，编程正在被AI取代。未来人们需要的是管理能力、指挥能力、表达能力——能够清晰有逻辑地指挥智能体。“在这方面，文科生是有优势的”他说。

格隆汇3月7日｜当地时间7日，伊拉克边防部队司令穆罕默德·萨克尔发表声明称，伊拉克与所有邻国的边界均“安全可靠，处于严格安全管控之下”，他否认当前在该国各边境地区存在任何渗透或越境活动。声明指出，近期事态表明，伊拉克加强与伊朗接壤的1493公里边境线管控至关重要，该边境线横跨库尔德自治区（库区）埃尔比勒、苏莱曼尼亚和哈莱卜杰三省。伊拉克边防部队已与库区安全部队“库尔德自由斗士组织”等协调，加强了这些地区边境地带的安全保障。萨克尔重申，有关伊拉克人员向伊朗边境渗透的报道不实。伊拉克边防部队指挥官与伊朗方面持续保持协调和沟通。声明还称，伊拉克与叙利亚和科威特边境不存在越境或渗透事件，伊拉克与约旦和沙特的边境安全形势良好。

“进入物理AI，数据问题的重要程度、严峻程度更大了。” 人工智能时代，高质量数据受到政策重视。 2026年政府工作报告提到，要打造智能经济新形态。数据是人工智能的燃料，政府工作报告提及，要深化数据资源开发利用，健全数据要素基础制度，建设高质量数据集。 “数据质量直接影响模型的表现。”五一视界（06651.HK）首席技术官鲍世强对第一财经记者表示。人工智能从生成式AI（比如文生图）向物理AI（比如人形机器人）进化，但训练物理AI所需要的强交互数据，在互联网世界难以找到。“进入物理AI，数据问题的重要程度、严峻程度更大了。” 高质量数据日渐稀缺 政府对于人工智能的期待在提高。 2026年政府工作报告，要求深化拓展“人工智能+”，促进新一代智能终端和智能体加快推广，推动重点行业领域人工智能商业化规模化应用，培育智能原生新业态新模式。 3月6日，国家发展改革委主任郑栅洁在十四届全国人大四次会议经济主题记者会上说，“十五五”末人工智能相关产业规模将增长到10万亿元以上。 这不是政府工作报告第一次提及人工智能和数据。2025年政府工作报告同样提到，持续推进“人工智能+”行动，加快完善数据基础制度，深化数据资源开发利用，促进和规范数据跨境流动。 2026年政府工作报告，进一步点名“建设高质量数据集”。 数据，是人工智能发展不可或缺的燃料。 人工智能的发展，有赖于三个维度的进步：算力、算法和数据。相比数据，芯片所代表的算力和深度学习等代表的算法更广为人知。实际上，在大语言模型训练过程中，高质量数据非常重要。 数据也分优劣。比如乾隆所作的1500首诗，没办法与杜甫的1500首诗相提并论；《自然》杂志发表的论文质量，远高过网络上流传的小作文。优质的数据，更有可能训练出优质的大语言大模型。 何况，人工智能从感知AI、生成式AI、智能体AI逐步向物理AI演进。它们对于数据的要求更高了。 在互联网上，各类文字、图片、视频数据相对丰富，它们可以用来训练生成式AI，大语言模型和视觉模型因此可以产出优质的文字、视频和图片。比如，豆包开发的Seedance2.0模型已经可以产生栩栩如生的视频。 鲍世强认为，在物理AI阶段，数据问题变得更加突出和严峻了。这些互联网数据，很难用于物理AI训练，比如智能驾驶和人形机器人。 智能驾驶的早期阶段，低级别的智驾车辆上路需要人工干预，行驶途中收集到的数据用于提高智...

fx-visual/iStock via Getty Images On February 2, Columbia Financial ( CLBK ) announced its intent to acquire Northfield Bancorp ( NFBK ). Valued at just under $600 million , the deal could create one of the three largest regional banks headquartered in New Jersey. The transaction is being done in conjunction with a second-step conversion where CLBK will transition to a fully public stock holding company. The deal is expected to be completed by the third quarter of this year. Once Columbia Financial and Northfield are combined, their total assets will equal roughly $18 billion. Columbia currently operates 71 bank branches in New Jersey. Northfield controls 17 bank locations in New Jersey and an additional 20 in New York. A map of the potential combined service areas for the two companies can be seen below. Columbia Merger Presentation While the addition of the Northfield assets certainly has value for CLBK shareholders, the second-step conversion may unlock some additional potential for the company as well. The offering for new Columbia shares is expected to raise proceeds of $1.4 billion to $1.9 billion that it can use for loan growth, initiation of a dividend, and restructuring of its securities portfolio. I think CLBK may be worth initiating a small position ahead of the conclusion of the merger for the reasons discussed here. Columbia Financial Company Overview Columbia Financial, in its current form, is a holding company for Columbia Bank. It is considered a partial public entity as it is majority owned by Columbia Bank Mutual Holding Company. The “first step conversion” for the company took place back in 2018 . CLBK currently has a market capitalization of $1.91 billion. At the end of 2025, Columbia Financial reported control of $11.0 billion in total assets, an increase of 5.2% from the end of 2024. Most of that increase was the result of a larger loan portfolio that was valued at $8.2 billion once allowances for credit losses are considered. The growth in the...

Key Points Canopy Growth is a marijuana stock trading around $1 a share. The company is acquiring another marijuana business in a cash-and-stock transaction. 10 stocks we like better than Canopy Growth › Canopy Growth (NASDAQ: CGC) is a leader in the Canadian marijuana market. An early mover in the sector, the stock has gone through two massive price swings. Today, however, the stock is trading at around $1 per share, off from its all-time high of $568 by a whopping 99%. It may be time to consider selling the stock if you're sitting on material paper losses. Marijuana stocks haven't worked out the way Wall Street had hoped Wall Street often gets overly excited about hot investment ideas, pushing stocks to unrealistic extremes. That's exactly what happened with the marijuana sector, with a couple of massive stock rallies that priced stocks like Canopy Growth for complete perfection. But the marijuana business didn't prove to be quite as profitable as investors had hoped. 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 » Notably, competition in the legal marijuana space has been fierce. And illicit marijuana sales haven't stopped, so there are still competitors that don't have to deal with the costs of regulation and taxes. Canopy Growth, for its part, has yet to turn a sustainable profit. How much have you lost? To be fair, Canopy Growth has been inching closer and closer to black ink. But there are still several worrying facts to consider. For example, it recently recapitalized its balance sheet, which has left it in a stronger financial position. But the fact that it had to take this action isn't a particularly good sign. Meanwhile, it is working on an acquisition to be funded with a mix of cash and stock. The deal will strengthen Canopy's position in the medical marijuana space, but the cash being...

Shipper MSC to introduce emergency fuel surcharge Reuters

迪拜國際機場傳出爆炸聲，阿聯酋航空一度暫停往返迪拜航班。而卡塔爾重開部分領空。 阿聯酋迪拜國際機場上空周六傳出爆炸，現場冒出濃煙。國防部指，防空系統攔截來自伊朗方向的導彈和無人機。迪拜傳媒辦公室指，攔截行動後，碎片墜落引發輕微事故。 迪拜機場一度暫停安檢和辦理登機手續，並要求旅客留在室內，機場之後局部恢復運作。 阿聯酋航空亦暫停往返迪拜航班，呼籲旅客不要前往機場，大約半小時後表示恢復運作，已預訂當地下午航班的乘客可前往機場。航空公司又表示，會繼續監察事態發展，並作出相應安排。 至於已預訂本月31日前機票的旅客，仍然可以重訂同一目的地，其他在4月30日或之前出發的機票，又或申請退款。 香港機管局資料顯示，傍晚六時離港的EK383航班取消。 阿聯酋航空早前表示，預計未來數日，可以全面恢復航線正常運作。 阿曼的馬斯喀特機場維持運作，機場有大量旅客辦理登機，有報道指不少人從迪拜陸路越境到阿曼，尋求離開中東地區。 卡塔爾民航局周五發聲明指，透過指定的應急航線，恢復部分國內航空導航運作，但整體運作仍有限，這階段主要是撤離旅客及貨運航班。 新華社引述中國駐土庫曼大使館報道，一批21名從伊朗撤離的中國公民，周五經土庫曼啟程回國。

A Connecticut man has pleaded guilty to defrauding Amazon out of more than $3.5 million. Ameer Nasir, 25, of Trumbull took a plea deal on Friday in federal court in Bridgeport where he pleaded guilty to wire fraud and agreed to pay restitution, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Connecticut. According to federal officials, Nasir allegedly defrauded Amazon Logistics, an Amazon subsidiary, by registering 23 trucking businesses with the company and misrepresenting that he had completed numerous transportation assignments. Amazon frequently contracts with various interstate trucking businesses to transport both empty trailers and trailers containing heavy loads of freight between cities as well as between warehouses and fulfillment centers, authorities said. Of the nearly two dozen businesses Nasir registered, one was reportedly done in the name of his business, Pak Express Transport, LLC. The others, authorities said, were created fraudulently using the names and identifying information of other trucking or transportation companies without their knowledge. Between December 2019 and February 2021, Nasir used these accounts to sign up for more than 1,000 transportation assignments with Amazon Logistics, officials said. Authorities said he manipulated information in Amazon’s transportation management system to misrepresent that he had completed trailer movements when he had not, and submitted fraudulent invoices to Amazon Logistics that were paid out. Federal officials said that he defrauded the company out of more than $3.5 million through the scheme. Nasir is free on a $300,000 bond pending sentencing, when he faces a maximum of 20 years in prison. Part of the plea deal he took includes paying more than $3.5 million in restitution, officials said.

In the opposite direction, one liquefied petroleum gas carrier entered. Both ships are sanctioned by the US. Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a vital energy artery, has effectively flatlined following several attacks on merchant ships. Missile and drone activity continues to pose a critical risk to all vessels in the vicinity. The inability to move oil tankers into and out of the Gulf means storage tanks are filling and some refineries have cut capacity. Iraq has been forced to scale back production, and Kuwait has reportedly followed while Saudi Arabia is rerouting exports to terminals in the Red Sea. By Friday, there were just nine empty supertankers in the Gulf, tracking data show. NOTE: Widespread signal interference and disabled transponders have made real-time tracking of ships difficult around the Strait of Hormuz. This gap in reporting prevents consistent daily oversight, as ship locations often remain unknown until they reappear on satellite feeds days later. Because vessels can move without AIS signals until they are well away from Hormuz, automated position signals were compiled over a large area covering the Gulf of Oman, the Arabian Sea and the Red Sea to detect those that may have departed or entered the Persian Gulf. When potential transits are identified, signal histories are examined to determine if the movement appears genuine, or are the result of spoofing — where electronic interference can falsify the apparent position of a ship. Some transits may not have been detected if vessels’ transponders haven’t been switched back on. Iran-linked oil tankers often steam from the Persian Gulf without broadcasting AIS signals until they reach the Strait of Mal...

人民银行行长潘功胜7日下午到浙江省代表团驻地，听取浙江省代表团小组会议审议意见。会中，有企业提出关于企业应收账款管理不规范的问题。对此，潘功胜回应称，人民银行正在规范企业在应收账款管理中存在的不规范行为。“去年央行在全国找了10家汽车企业进行约谈，应该是有效果的。今年可以再看看其他行业有没有比较典型的，还可以再做做。”（第一财经）

卡塔尔关闭其年产7700万吨的Ras Laffan液化天然气（LNG）工厂，全球天然气市场随即进入高度紧张状态。这一事件不仅导致欧洲天然气价格（TTF）在短短几天内飙升超过50%，更深刻地重塑了全球能源与化工产业链的供需格局。 3月7日，据追风交易台消息，综合汇丰、汇丰前海、摩根士丹利的最新研报观点，这一事件在重塑全球LNG供需格局的同时，也在亚洲内部制造出截然不同的行业命运： 对于高度依赖中东LNG的亚洲电力行业而言，实物供应短缺的威胁迫在眉睫；而对于欧洲天然气价格敏感的中国化工行业而言，欧洲竞争对手成本大幅上升，或为国内企业打开一扇难得的结构性机会之窗。 据汇丰全球投资研究发布的最新报告， 卡塔尔能源公司已于3月2日宣布停止Ras Laffan的液化天然气生产 ，并宣布不可抗力。该设施年产能达77百万吨，占全球LNG供应约20%。若计入约两周的重启窗口期，假设停产四周，市场将损失至少800万吨LNG，接近全年供应量的2%。 在此背景下，欧洲TTF天然气价格在短短两个交易日内飙升约70%，亚洲JKM价格亦上涨约50%，双双创下近三年新高。 汇丰前海证券称，欧洲天然气价格的飙升推高了当地化工企业的生产成本，为中国化工行业（尤其是MDI、TDI、维生素和蛋氨酸等领域）带来了结构性的市场份额扩张机会与产品溢价空间。 另外，汇丰分析师将欧亚两地的风险性质做出明确区分： 欧洲面临的是价格问题，而非实物可得性问题；亚洲面临的则恰恰相反——是实物供应能否保障的问题。 摩根士丹利亚太区研究也同步指出，亚洲电力行业对中东LNG的依赖度约达20%，数据中心及电网供应的连续性正面临切实考验，可能被迫转向煤炭等替代能源。 卡塔尔LNG断供：全球天然气市场的“黑天鹅” 卡塔尔能源公司（QatarEnergy）宣布关闭其位于Ras Laffan的LNG工厂并宣布不可抗力，这一决定直接切断了全球近20%的LNG供应。Ras Laffan是全球最大的LNG出口设施，2025年出口量达8200万吨。 汇丰称，该设施的关闭并非单纯由霍尔木兹海峡封锁所致——由于无法外运货物，现场储罐（容量仅约100万吨，不足五天正常装载量）迅速趋于饱和，卡塔尔能源公司实际上别无选择，只能关停生产。 这一点至关重要： 市场面临的不仅是因海峡封锁导致的货运中断，还叠加了大型复杂设施重启本身所需的时间损耗。 汇丰报告指出，...

伊拉克边防部队司令穆罕默德·萨克尔发表声明称，伊拉克与所有邻国的边界均“安全可靠，处于严格安全管控之下”，他否认当前在该国各边境地区存在任何渗透或越境活动。声明指出，近期事态表明，伊拉克加强与伊朗接壤的1493公里边境线管控至关重要，该边境线横跨库尔德自治区（库区）埃尔比勒、苏莱曼尼亚和哈莱卜杰三省。伊拉克边防部队已与库区安全部队“库尔德自由斗士组织”等协调，加强了这些地区边境地带的安全保障。萨克尔重申，有关伊拉克人员向伊朗边境渗透的报道不实。伊拉克边防部队指挥官与伊朗方面持续保持协调和沟通。（央视新闻）

Key Points Boeing subsidiary Liquid Robotics just won its first sizeable defense contract to supply USVs to Japan. The company has nearly tripled the price of its Wave Glider robot vessel since getting acquired by Boeing. 10 stocks we like better than Boeing › Reviewing the Department of Defense's daily digest of contract awards (as one does), you tend to get a good idea of who "the usual suspects" are at the Pentagon. Big defense names like RTX, Lockheed Martin, and Northrop Grumman make regular appearances on the list; big tech names like Microsoft or Palantir or Amazon Web Services will also pop up from time to time, hired to do military IT work. And then, every so often, an entirely unfamiliar name will arrive that causes you to sit up and take notice. That's what happened for me last week, when Liquid Robotics appeared on the list. 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 » Searching through the archives for the past 10 years, it turns out last week was the first time ever Liquid Robotics won a contract big enough to show up on the Pentagon's list (which covers all contracts $7.5 million and up). So what exactly is Liquid Robotics, I wondered? And what does it do? And why is the Japanese navy buying drone ships from it? Japan loves robots Because that's the substance of the contract I had stumbled upon. For $25 million, the U.S. Air Force had contracted to purchase 20 commercial unmanned surface vehicles (that's military-speak for drone warships) from Liquid Robotics, apparently for delivery to Japan as a Foreign Military Sale. It took a bit of digging, but in short order, all was made clear. Liquid Robotics, it turns out, is a subsidiary of Pentagon megacontractor Boeing (NYSE: BA), which bought the company back in December 2016 as "a market leader in autonomous maritime systems and dev...
