俄罗斯和乌克兰表示，新一轮由美国主导的和平谈判将于下周在日内瓦举行。 克里姆林宫发言人Dmitry Peskov周五表示，俄罗斯总统的助手Vladimir Medinsky将率领莫斯科代表团参加定于2月17日至18日举行的谈判。 乌克兰总统泽连斯基的助手Dmytro Lytvyn对记者称，乌方谈判团队也在筹备下周在日内瓦与俄美的会谈。乌克兰首席谈判代表Rustem Umerov周五在X平台发文称，基辅代表团将包括专注于军事、政治和安全事务的官员，他本人也将参与即将举行的会谈。 据媒体援引未具名知情人士消息报道，俄罗斯预计将派出至少15人参加谈判，包括副外长Mikhail Galuzin。报道称，克里姆林宫特使Kirill Dmitriev也将前往日内瓦参与谈判。 此次会议是继新年以来在阿联酋举行的两轮会谈之后的最新进展，此前两轮会谈涉及乌俄军事官员、美国特使史蒂夫·威特科夫以及特朗普女婿贾里德·库什纳。双方就这场战争中任何潜在停火的军事条款进行了讨论，但在领土这一核心问题上仍存在较大分歧。 责任编辑：王许宁

UniqueMotionGraphics/iStock via Getty Images Introduction The last time I covered Northern Star Resources Limited ( NESRF ), I highlighted how they were trading below fair value despite strong financials, high-quality assets, and a robust growth pipeline as one of Australia's gold mining gems. With gold ( XAUUSD:CUR ) reaching a new all-time high and retreating a bit in the meantime, as well as a very strong quarterly report despite a few issues at some of their projects, I believe NESRF continues to trade below their true potential in this environment, as the market seems to be accounting for quite conservative assumptions given the current price, which Northern Star could easily beat. Internal Developments Northern Star Resources IR As we could expect, Northern Star reported a massive increase in underlying net profit after tax, with a 49% jump in H1 FY26, despite selling only 729,000 ounces during the first half compared to 804,000 in H1 FY25. However, despite this phenomenal performance, it’s important to note that the company’s realized prices were low compared to the spot prices at that time, with an average realized gold price of A$4,670 (US$3,292) per ounce compared to gold’s A$5,860 (US$4,135) average during Q4 2025, as a result of older contracts. While their production was affected by crusher and mill issues at KCGM/Thunderbox, planned recovery work at Jundee and lower grades at Pogo, these lower prices came as the effect of delivering 158,000 ounces into their hedge book during the quarter, as the company ceased their hedge policy on July 2025, reducing their hedge commitments to 1.12 million ounces at an average price of A$3,333 (US$2,357). On the one hand, this allows them to capture better spot prices going forward, but it also exposes them more to a potential fall in gold prices, with the company's CFO mentioning the following during their Q2 FY26 Earnings Call , as they want to focus on their current projects instead: I think what I'd say is we want...

如果美国政府真的停摆，未来几天旅客在机场安检口是否会遭遇延误，目前尚不明朗。 隶属于国土安全部的美国运输安全管理局（TSA）员工，在政府停摆期间必须 无薪工作 。目前仍不清楚旅客是否会、以及何时会感受到影响。 又要政府停摆？旅客需知事项一览 作者：加布・卡斯特罗 - 鲁特 在美国史上最长政府停摆结束仅三个月、为期数天的部分停摆刚过去两周后，国土安全部又将在午夜时分面临资金耗尽的局面。 国会已为联邦政府其他部门提供本财年剩余时间的资金，但民主党人否决了给国土安全部的拨款，并誓言反对任何不新增移民执法人员限制条款的支出法案。 此次迫在眉睫的停摆意味着，从周六开始，隶属于国土安全部的运输安全管理局员工将再次 无薪上岗 。以下是旅客需要了解的内容。 出行可能受到哪些影响？ 本周末旅客在机场安检口是否会遭遇延误，目前尚无法确定。 在以往的停摆中，混乱起初是零散出现的，但随着资金缺口持续、更多 TSA 安检员和空中交通管制人员缺勤，影响会不断扩大。 但与以往停摆不同的是， 本次空中交通管制员不会直接受影响 ，因为国会议员已为交通部拨付了资金。 根据国土安全部去年 9 月公布的应急方案，TSA 约 6.4 万名员工中，约 95% 在停摆期间必须继续到岗工作。 TSA 员工会受到哪些冲击？ TSA 代理局长哈・阮・麦克尼尔周三在众议院委员会听证会上表示，再次停摆将是 “极其不合理的”。 她称，在去年创纪录的 43 天停摆期间，部分 TSA 员工为省下油钱，睡在机场的车里，为支付账单不得不打第二份工、甚至出售血浆。 专家和机构官员警告，无论停摆时长如何，哪怕只是停摆威胁，都会阻碍本就人手短缺的航空安全专业人员的招聘与留存。 麦克尼尔在众议院委员会表示，2025 年 10 月、11 月 TSA 员工离职率同比上升超 25%。许多离职员工将原因归结为 “政府停摆带来的不确定性、压力、欠薪和经济困难”。她补充说，机构正计划在今年世界杯前增加人员配置。 代表 TSA 员工的美国政府雇员联合会发言人拒绝置评。 去年国会提出的两项法案，旨在未来停摆期间照常向 TSA 员工和空管发放薪水，尽管得到两党广泛支持，但目前仍处于搁置状态。 如果是国际出行怎么办？ 根据应急方案，国土安全部其他部门在停摆期间预计将 基本正常运转 ，但员工同样无薪工作。口岸将保持开放，大多数移民、边境和海关人员将继续上岗。文...

Autonomous vehicles have a lot of potential. As long as you program them right, they won't speed, won't break traffic laws, and won't get drunk, high, abusive, or violent. And the technology has been getting much more capable, even as some of the hype has died down, taking some of the related companies with it . Waymo still easily leads the field and is already operating commercially in six cities across America, with a dozen more (plus London) coming soon. Waymos can even drop you off and pick you up at the airport in Phoenix and San Francisco. Soon, Waymo will begin deploying its sixth-generation Waymo Driver, using upfitted Zeekr Ojai minivans, adding to the Jaguar I-Paces that have become so common on San Francisco streets and to its fleet of Hyundai Ioniq 5 electric vehicles. It has upgraded the cameras, lidar, and radar, meaning the cars can better sense their environments at night and in inclement weather. There are even microphones that can pick up sounds like sirens to better inform the robotaxi of the direction the emergency vehicle(s) are coming from. But even with all these advances since the pod-like two-seater that predates even the Waymo name , there are still a few things that remain beyond a robotaxi's capabilities. Like closing a door a passenger left open on their way out. All the sophisticated sensors and high-powered computer processing in the world are useless if the car can't move until the door closes and there's no one there to give it a hand.

Hi, it’s Manuel Baigorri in Hong Kong, where I’ve been speaking with some experts on the significant pickup in outbound M&A investment from Greater China. Also today, Hong Kong firms are on the hunt for more bankers to handle an IPO surge. Today’s top stories Musk’s bankers discuss plan to address xAI debt after merger. DayOne picks banks for $5 billion US IPO. Ares locked in $250 million fight over flagship football deal. SoftBank’s PayPay gets closer to US IPO in milestone for Japan. Private credit’s massive software bet is bigger than It appears . Shopping spree With China gearing up for the Lunar New Year holiday and the Year of the Horse, the country’s companies have been galloping overseas in search of investment opportunities—the volume of outbound M&A from Greater China neared $12 billion in January. That’s the most for the month since 2017. Chinese firms have been snapping up big names such as sports brand Puma and miner Allied Gold, adding to momentum after a prolonged lull that began in the mid to late 2010s, when China capped outbound investment to rein in exuberant spending. “Many new situations are being evaluated at the moment and we expect more significant deals to be announced in 2026,” said Richard Griffiths, head of M&A in Asia Pacific for BNP Paribas. Reasons for the shift include heightened competition and fewer opportunities at home, as well as renewed confidence and financial strength as local brands grow and Beijing gives its blessing to pursue strategic assets. Potential obstacles such as trade barriers and national security concerns still need to be negotiated of course. “We expect to see more Chinese companies buying assets overseas in markets with lower regulatory hurdles and industries that are less sensitive, including consumer and retail,” said Nancy Zheng, a partner at Bain in Shanghai. Other countries in Asia, Canada, some European markets and Latin America have welcomed Chinese buyers, she said. On the consumer and retail side, Luck...
