欧洲早盘该股跌幅达 2.9%，而同行业赛峰、英国宇航系统股价逆势上涨 内容概要 有消息称 空客 告知航司，本世纪 20 年代后期 A350 客机交付将出现延误，受此影响，空客股价下跌 2.9%。 周四，空客股价走低。消息显示，这家航空制造企业通知各大航空公司，A350 机型后续交付进度将会延后。 欧洲早盘交易时段，空客股价下跌 2.9%，报 168.28 欧元；其同业企业赛峰小幅波动，英国宇航系统股价则实现上涨。 路透社援引匿名消息人士报道，空客近期收购的一家美国零部件工厂出现人员问题，生产受阻，进而引发交付延误。 北卡罗来纳州金斯顿工厂是空客去年从思睿航空系统收购而来，目前该厂无法稳定供应 A350 机型核心机身部件。 针对此事，空客表示，不会就与客户约定的交付时间对外发表评论。 受整体供应链扰动影响，空客去年已将 A350 货运机型的投产时间推迟至 2027 年下半年，如今再度曝出交付延期问题。 杰富瑞分析师在研报中指出，空客原定 2028 年将 A350 月产量提升至 12 架、实现产能翻倍的目标难度加大，投资者对此反应偏负面。 空客在 4 月发布一季度财报时称，公司今年有望向客户交付约 870 架商用飞机，整体交付计划推进正常。 责任编辑：郭明煜

伊朗最高領袖穆傑塔巴，據報下令禁止濃縮鈾運出國。 路透社引述兩名伊朗高層稱，穆傑塔巴的命令和政府內部共識，都認為濃縮鈾庫存不得運出境外，因為這樣做將使伊朗未來更容易受到美國和以色列攻擊。 美國總統特朗普再次向伊朗施壓，稱若果無法達成協議，美軍將會發動大規模攻勢。伊朗就稱一旦被侵略，會將戰事擴大到中東以外地區。

The Afghanistan women's refugee team will tour England this summer in their continued bid to be recognised for international competition. More than 20 members of what was the Afghanistan national team have been exiled in Australia since 2021, when the Taliban returned to power and effectively outlawed female participation in sport in the country. An Afghanistan Women's XI played its first competitive match in Melbourne in January 2025 and the squad were in India at the same time as the 50-over World Cup late last year. Now, the refugee team will tour England from 22 June, playing T20 matches alongside training opportunities. The players will also attend the final of the T20 World Cup, which is being held in England. The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said the tour "carries significant cultural and sporting importance". The ECB currently has no plans for the England men's team to play Afghanistan in any bilateral contests. England's seven previous matches against Afghanistan have all been in global tournaments. Early last year, there were calls for England to boycott their match against Afghanistan at the Champions Trophy, with more than 200 politicians signing a letter asking the ECB to take a stance. The fixture still went ahead, but the ECB labelled the situation in Afghanistan as "nothing short of gender apartheid".

Supatman/iStock via Getty Images Introduction Global Net Lease ( GNL ) is a real estate investment trust that specializes in owning and leasing net lease commercial properties. The structure of Global Net Lease is that it owns the commercial real estate, but its tenants are responsible for the maintenance, insurance, and property taxes. Two years ago, I wrote about my concerns regarding the ownership of the company’s common shares and how their dividend was under pressure. As an alternative, I recommended the company’s preferred shares, which still had steady yields of over 8% at the time despite being in a safer capital stack. Today, after reviewing the latest financials, I have a negative outlook on the company’s operating performance and I believe it is best for income investors to avoid both the common and preferred shares. Understanding the Structure of the Preferred Shares Preferred shares are senior to common shares in the capital stack. Because of this, their prices tend to be more stable and since the common dividends need to be eliminated before preferred dividends can be impaired, their dividends are seen as more reliable. Global Net Lease has four different preferred shares for investors to choose from. All four of the preferred shares are callable at $25 per share, meaning the company can redeem them and pay $25 per share for their redemption at any time. Each preferred share pays a different dividend and because their yields are very close together, that means their prices are different. Each of these preferred shares has cumulative dividends, meaning that if the company were to suspend them, the dividends would accrue as a liability and would be owed to the preferred shareholders upon resumption of the dividends.

Closed-end funds (CEFs) yield around 8% today--and that's on average. Plenty yield more--and deliver their payouts safely, predictably and often monthly, too. Members of my CEF Insider service know this. As I write this, our portfolio yields a high 8.8% on average, even as many of our funds' prices have risen with this year's strong market. And 12 of our current 21 holdings pay us every month. All that said, we also know the old adage that something that seems too good to be true usually is. That also applies to CEF yields, especially when we spot a vastly overinflated one (24.6%, say). Don't Fall for the Siren Song of This Huge Payout That 24.6% figure is the current forward yield on a CEF called Oxford Lane Capital Corporation (OXLC). The allure of such a yield is powerful: Buy now, hold for a year and you get nearly a quarter of your investment back in dividends alone. Hang in for a bit more than four years and you've recouped it all. Anything from there on is a bonus. Unfortunately, that's not the case here because what the payout gives, the share price and OXLC's falling dividend take away. That's a common problem with twenty-something yields like this one. Falling Stock, Falling Dividend As you can see above, in the last five years, OXLC's dividend (shown in purple) has dropped nearly 41%, while its share price has fallen even harder--a bit more than 73%. So we see that at least some of that 24.6% yield comes from the fact that the price has fallen faster than the payout. What's more, even if an investor collected their last five years' worth of payouts and reinvested them, they'd still be down 22% in that time (see the purple line below)--a span when the S&P 500's total return (in orange) nearly doubled. A 24.6% Yield Can't Keep OXLC Out of the Red It just goes to show how important it is to not be lured in by an oversized yield. Doing so can cause you to overlook other problems with an income play like OXLC. But what's the story behind this poor performance?...

At the cusp of a business transition, Arm (ARM) stock has traded exceptionally higher in the last 52 weeks. The rally has also been supported by structural industry tailwinds that have translated into robust growth. However, amidst the bright outlook, the company is facing new scrutiny. Specifically, Arm is the target of a U.S. antitrust investigation to determine whether its dominant position in the semiconductor licensing industry is being used to disadvantage rivals. Importantly, as the company builds its in-house chip business, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is examining whether Arm can unfairly limit or degrade competitors' access to key licenses. From an investment perspective, this probe increases Arm's regulatory risk. However, it's worth noting that the price action of ARM stock has not been significantly negative, as the positives far outweigh concerns related to the investigation. About ARM Stock Headquartered in the United Kingtom, Arm is a global leader in the semiconductor industry. Its business involves the research, development, and licensing of microprocessors, systems IP, graphics processing units (GPUs), software, and more. Since 1990, Arm has shipped more than 350 billion chips, and the company clocked a turnover of $4.9 billion for fiscal 2026. On a year-over-year (YOY) basis, fiscal 2026 revenue growth was robust at 23%. In terms of innovation, Arm has commenced production of its AGI CPU, which is its first production silicon; Arm claims that the AGI CPU is one of the world’s most-efficient agentic central processing units. The firm has visibility of over $2 billion in potential demand over the next two years. According to Arm, the semiconductor market related to cloud AI, edge AI, and physical AI is poised to be worth $1.5 trillion by 2031. This presents a big opportunity for sustained growth. Considering the industry tailwinds, Arm’s leadership position, and healthy top-line growth, ARM stock has trended higher by 94% in the last six mont...

Four decades on, ’80s-style science fiction adventures continue to exert their influence on modern film and TV. The idea of a group of kids teaming up to face an otherworldly threat has become a trope at this point, seen in everything from Super 8 to Stranger Things. So on one level, The Boroughs, a new sci-fi series on Netflix, does a lot that feels very familiar, with its tale of a mysterious alien terrorizing a small neighborhood and the team of plucky friends who band together to stop it. But The Boroughs also does something different: Its neighborhood is a retirement community, and its group of friends are all in their 70s. That seemingly slight change makes a big difference, elevating The Boroughs above most of its Spielberg-imitating brethren. The Boroughs is the title of the show, but it’s also the name of the beautiful retirement community in the New Mexico desert where, almost immediately, it’s clear there’s something wrong. Things are just a little too perfect. Crotchety newcomer Sam (Alfred Molina) senses this early on, but it takes a while before he has an idea of just what’s going on. There are hints at it, like the resident who complains about owls in the walls, but things really kick off when Sam accidentally catches an alien creature that seems to be feeding on his neighbors while they sleep. This discovery pulls him and his newly formed friend group into a larger conspiracy. The Boroughs does a good job of teasing out its mystery, which steadily grows in scale over the course of its eight episodes. I won’t spoil anything, but there’s a direct connection between the alien and the many strange things that keep happening around the community, which only makes figuring out what’s really going on — and, of course, stopping it — all the more difficult. In a classic Amblin movie circa 1985, this is the point in the story when a group of kids on bikes would get mixed up in the conspiracy and figure things out. But since we’re in a retirement community, the...

Eoneren/iStock via Getty Images On Saturday, 2 May, Berkshire Hathaway ( BRK.B ) ( BRK.A ) hosted its 2026 annual meeting - its first, since Warren Buffett stepped down as the CEO of the firm and passed the baton to Greg Abel. I won't lie, as an investor with Berkshire being the third-largest position in my portfolio, I was nervous watching the meeting online, unclear what to expect from Abel's performance or the direction Berkshire will take. Expectations were high, and in retrospect, I can say Greg won my vote of confidence. To be fair, my expectations for Berkshire are now higher than in the final years of Buffett's CEO tenure, a period during which investment decisions took a back seat and the leadership left a lot to be desired. In the last 12 months alone, Berkshire's stock performance was -6.15% vs. the S&P 500 ( SP500 ) gain of 24.4%. A performance gap, which I largely attribute to an extremely defensive posture, ultimately hurts shareholders. I don't mean to be short term-oriented, sitting out a stock rally isn't a flaw, but the swollen cash pile is a testament to inactivity. As usual, ahead of the annual meeting, Q1 earnings were reported, and the operating results were quite strong. Today, we also have available the 13F report; let's have a look at the operating results, portfolio changes, valuation and more. Berkshire Q1 Earnings Following Buffett's wisdom for years, the best way to look at Berkshire's business is through the lens of operating earnings. This completely strips out the pollution of investment gains/losses and shows the true earning potential of the underlying businesses. In Q1 2026 , Berkshire reported strong operating earnings at $11.35B, up from $9.64B reported in the prior year. During Q1, Greg Abel was already in charge, and while it's difficult to attribute the 17.7% year-over-year jump in earnings to his abilities, the transition alongside the strong results is a nice vote of confidence.

CR/iStock via Getty Images Hims & Hers Health ( HIMS ) on Thursday announced the launch of generic versions of Novo Nordisk’s ( NVO ) blockbuster GLP-1 therapy semaglutide through its telehealth platform in Canada. The California-based health tech said that semaglutide, marketed as Ozempic for diabetes and Wegovy for weight loss by Novo ( NVO ), will be available as part of personalized treatment plans starting at C$149 per month. "Bringing generic semaglutide to market means more Canadians have a real, affordable path to treatment,” added Austin Kouri, General Manager, Hims & Hers ( HIMS ) Canada. While generic semaglutide is approved in Canada for type 2 diabetes, healthcare providers can prescribe it off-label for weight management based on clinical judgment. The Danish drugmaker lost Canadian market exclusivity for semaglutide in January, opening the floodgates for a host of off-patent versions manufactured by leading generic drugmakers such as Teva ( TEVA ) and Sandoz ( SDZNY ) ( SDZXF ). Last week, India’s Dr. Reddy's ( RDY ) launched generic Ozempic after Canada approved its marketing application, becoming the first G7 nation to approve a knockoff version of the once-weekly therapy.

根据相关机构基于美国财政部数据的计算，土耳其在3月份几乎抛售了其所持有的全部美国国债，此举正值伊朗战争爆发首月，土耳其加大力度支撑本国货币。 数据显示，截至3月底，土耳其持有的美债规模从2月份的160亿美元骤降至18亿美元。这一数字包括土耳其央行及其他本土实体(含企业)所持有的美债。 此次减持恰逢中东冲突爆发后土耳其市场遭遇抛售潮、油价大幅飙升。为遏制里拉显著贬值，土耳其央行迅速采取行动，通过收紧融资条件、抛售外汇及 黄金 资产来干预市场，其措施还包括动用外汇储备中的黄金进行置换。 土耳其央行通常不对其干预措施发表评论，此次也拒绝对美债出售情况作出回应。 在经历了一年的外汇储备重建后，土耳其的美债持有额曾于2025年2月达到210亿美元的高点。而在大约十年前，这一数字曾高达800亿美元的峰值，随后因土耳其与美国在一系列政治及地缘争端中关系恶化而持续下降。 目前可获得的数据截止到3月份，4月份的数据预计将于下月公布。 尽管土耳其央行采取了干预措施，但随着战事持续，里拉仍面临压力。上周，在数据显示年通胀率加速升至32.4%之后，土耳其央行将年底通胀目标从16%上调至24%。土耳其债券也遭遇大幅下跌，十年期国债收益率创下35.75%的历史新高。

The sale brought in about $1.3 million, based on a share price near $450. Tesla shares had been trading above that level in recent weeks before slipping 4.7% on May 15 during a broader market selloff. Tesla shares have also been volatile this year as investors have tracked the company's efforts to win approval to sell its Full Self Driving feature in China.

格隆汇5月21日｜白宫官员：特朗普将推迟实施拜登时期出台的制冷剂管控规则。

据两名知情业内高管透露，为应对旗下人工智能产品日益增长的市场需求、扩充算力资源，Anthropic公司目前正洽谈租用搭载 微软 自研 AI 服务器芯片的算力服务器。 若成功拿下Anthropic这一客户，对微软而言将是重大利好。此前微软自研芯片项目在去年遭遇研发延期。英伟达 AI 芯片几乎占据了微软面向 AI 开发者出租的全部算力设施，如今微软意图效仿 谷歌 、 亚马逊 等云服务竞品，打造可替代英伟达芯片的自研芯片产品。 各大云服务商高管均表示，英伟达硬件采购成本居高不下，研发定制化自研芯片，是稳住并提升企业利润空间的必要举措。 微软迈亚芯片能为Anthropic运行克劳德大模型提供全新算力选择，Anthropic还有望推动该芯片新一代产品按自身业务需求定制优化。迈亚芯片主打提速运行现有大模型，性能优于英伟达同类产品，但并不像英伟达芯片那样，适配客户全新大模型的研发搭建工作。 微软今年 1 月宣布，已在旗下 Azure 云数据中心正式投产最新款迈亚 200 芯片。Azure 业务负责人斯科特・格思里表示，借助迈亚 200 芯片，微软有效降低了旗下智能助手 Copilot 的运行成本，该助手依托开放人工智能研究中心与Anthropic的大模型提供服务。不过相较于谷歌、亚马逊的自研 AI 芯片，迈亚芯片目前仍处于发展初期。 知情人士称，双方此次芯片算力合作洽谈尚处于初步阶段，最终未必能达成正式合作协议。 长期以来，Anthropic始终与其他 AI 企业走差异化路线：通过采购多品牌服务器芯片开展技术研发与业务运营，摆脱了开放人工智能研究中心、xAI 等企业高度依赖英伟达硬件的困境。该企业目前同时使用亚马逊、谷歌及英伟达旗下 AI 服务器芯片，还在接洽一家英国新兴初创企业的芯片产品。 Anthropic本季度营收接近 110 亿美元，远超今年一季度营收规模，预计单季将斩获 5.6 亿美元净利润，业绩表现亮眼。与此同时，该企业已敲定向美国三大头部云服务商合计投入至少 3300 亿美元算力采购资金。从理论层面来看，选用三大云服务商定制化 AI 芯片，相比普通芯片性价比更高，若云服务商愿意承担部分成本补贴，效益还将进一步提升。 脸书母公司元宇宙平台、开放人工智能研究中心等一众 AI 同行，如今纷纷效仿Anthropic的多芯片布局策略，接连与多家算力供应商达成合作，同时还各自自...

Russia announced plans to sell government bonds denominated in Chinese yuan for the second time after President Vladimir Putin returned from a two-day visit to China. Investors will be offered fixed-coupon bonds with a maturity of 10 years and a face value of 10,000 yuan per note, the Finance Ministry said in a statement Thursday. The ministry will collect orders on May 28, with placement on the Moscow Exchange scheduled for June 3. Bond purchases and coupon payments will be available in either Chinese yuan or Russian rubles at the investor’s choice, according to a statement. The plan to raise yuan for the state coffers follows talks in Beijing between Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping , as the two leaders sought to underscore the strength of their ties amid global tensions over the wars in Ukraine and Iran. Read more: Xi and Putin Wrap Talks Showcasing Ties Amid Global Unrest Russia first sold local bonds in yuan late last year , raising a total of 20 billion yuan ($2.9 billion) in two tranches as the government sought funding to cover budget shortfalls driven by military spending and weaker oil revenues. The 12 billion-yuan bonds due February 2029 carry a 6% coupon, while an 8 billion-yuan tranche due June 2033 pays 7%. Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said at the time that the ministry aimed to build a benchmark yield curve in the Chinese currency to help corporate borrowers tap yuan funding.

The company will trade on Nasdaq under the ticker SPCX. Class A shares carry one vote each and Class B shares carry 10. No price range or share count was disclosed in the preliminary prospectus. The filing reveals a company that generated $18.7 billion in revenue in 2025 and lost $4.9 billion, driven by $20.7 billion in capital expenditures. Starlink accounts for most of the economics. The segment reported $11.4 billion in revenue, $4.4 billion in operating income, and 10.3 million subscribers across 164 countries. SpaceX's February 2026 acquisition of xAI brought Grok and X into the consolidated entity going public.

Kirk Fisher/iStock Editorial via Getty Images The U.S. is filled with aging housing stock. According to the American Planning Association , the median age of owner-occupied houses is about 40 years. As I’ve written about previously , the fundamentals of old housing stocks should be a boom for the home improvement retailers, given the pure necessity of continuing repairs and maintenance (“R&M”). Results from Lowe’s Companies ( LOW ) show that this isn’t exactly the case. In the current environment, it appears the average DIYer is putting away their toolbox, at least for the time being. LOW’s Q1 came in ahead of expectations on both the top and bottom lines. Forward guidance, however, was light, albeit reaffirmed. The guidance didn’t surprise me. In my last piece on LOW, I wrote that I believed the market would remain soft for the entirety of the year and that LOW was fairly valued for the environment. Shares in LOW have declined by about 14% since that update . This compares to a 8.8% gain in the S&P 500 ( SPY ) over the same period. Seeking Alpha - LOW's Share Performance Since Last Author Update While I do see shares as more attractive today than in my last update earlier in the year, I still believe shares in LOW are a ‘hold’ in today’s operating environment, which likely will remain soft for an extended period of time. LOW Q1 Results Recap In reviewing Q1, I would note that LOW reported a better-than-expected quarter, though the report still reflected the difficult environment facing the home improvement space. At the topline, revenues increased 10.3%, while comparable sales rose 0.6%. This marked the company’s fourth consecutive quarter of positive comps. Adjusted EPS, meanwhile, came in at $3.03/share, ahead of expectations and up 3.8% from the prior year period.

Japan-listed Kura Sushi stock gained as much as 5.4% after disclosures showed Trump bought between $1 million and $5 million in Kura Sushi USA shares

European stock markets could rise another 5% by the end of the year, driven by “an explosion of earnings,” said Beata Manthey , head of European equity strategy at Citigroup Global Markets Ltd. “If you look at what is happening on the earnings front and the parts of the market that are actually driving the index level, they are doing pretty well,” Manthey said in an interview with Bloomberg Television. “We’ve been seeing an explosion of earnings in the last reporting season, so from that perspective I don’t see risks.” Stocks can move higher even in the face of increased bond yields, she said, as long as the pace of inflation doesn’t pick and economic growth, as measured by purchasing manager indexes, remains solid. “If PMIs start rolling over that could trigger, or historically have triggered, a selloff in equity markets,” she said. Europe faces greater impact from higher oil prices than other regions, and Citigroup last month shifted its view to favor stocks in the US versus the rest of the world. “There are no miracles,” she said. “Economies and parts of equity markets exposed to higher energy prices will see downgrades, and we are already starting to see them.” Yet Citi hasn’t changed its target for European stocks nor its earnings growth forecast, because an “explosion of earnings in energy” is offsetting downgrades elsewhere, she said. The market rally has occurred “in this very narrow fashion,” Manthey said. Still, Manthey warned of increasing frothiness around artificial intelligence. A Middle East ceasefire would trigger a squeeze in European equities as underweight investors rush in, though a Ukraine resolution “will potentially be even bigger than the Middle East,” she said. Citigroup recommends technology, materials and financials via banks, while maintaining caution on sectors exposed to higher inflation.

Flipper Devices, maker of the Flipper Zero hacking device, today announced a new gadget called Flipper One that has multiple network connectivity chops and can act as a Linux PC (is this the year?). The company has sold over a million Flipper Zero units and has generated over $150 million in sales. However, the new device is not a successor as it operates on a different layer than the Flipper Zero, the company said. The Flipper Zero device is popular in the hacker community, which can connect to radios like Bluetooth, RFID, NFC, a sub-1GHz transceiver, and Infrared. The device could act like a key fob or an entry pass, but could also be used in cases like spamming nearby iPhones. Meanwhile, the new Flipper One device relies on network connectivity through 2x Gigabit Ethernet, USB Ethernet (5 Gbps), and Wi-Fi 6E (2.4/5/6 GHz).

This powers display, buttons, and touchpad, LEDs, and the power subsystem, so even when the Linux part of the device is turned off, users can operate the device. Flipper Devices CEO Pavel Zhovner said that the company is also developing its own Linux-based flavour. He said in a blog that while Raspberry Pi OS is fluid and he enjoys using it, it i...
