Nossos sócios Luiz Eduardo Portella, Tomás Goulart e Sarah Campos debatem, no episódio de hoje, os principais acontecimentos da semana no Brasil e no mundo.⁠ ⁠ No cenário internacional, o destaque foi a divulgação dos dados de inflação nos EUA (PPI e CPI), um pouco abaixo do esperado, gerando expectativa similar para o PCE. Ainda por lá, foram divulgados dados de vendas no varejo e produção industrial, indicando atividade forte; e o diretor Christopher Waller, do Fed, trouxe discurso dove, indicando tranquilidade a respeito dos dados e expectativa de 3 a 4 cortes de juros ao longo do ano. No Reino Unido, os dados de inflação também surpreenderam positivamente. ⁠ No Brasil, foram divulgados dados de atividade (PMS – serviços), mais fracos que o esperado, que levaram a revisões baixistas para o PIB do 4º trimestre. Entretanto, as atenções ficaram voltadas para a polêmica ao redor do tema de uma suposta taxação do PIX, que levou o governo a recuar e revogar a norma da Receita Federal que tratava do monitoramento das movimentações financeiras. ⁠ Nos EUA, os juros fecharam na semana (5 anos -15 bps), e as bolsas tiveram bom desempenho – S&P500 +2,91%, Nasdaq +2,85% e Russell2000 +3,96%. No Reino Unido, os juros também fecharam (entre 15 e 20 bps). No Brasil, o jan/26 fechou 10 bps, enquanto o jan/35 abriu 12 bps, e o Ibovespa subiu 2,94%. ⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Na próxima semana será importante acompanhar a posse do novo presidente americano, Donald Trump; dados de atividade (PMIs) na Europa; reunião do banco central do Japão (BoJ); e divulgação do IPCA-15 aqui no Brasil. ⁠ ⁠Não deixe de conferir!⁠

Desde que empezamos el mes de septiembre el informe oficial de empleo de EEUU de agosto se presentaba como la cita clave de la semana. El mercado laboral estadounidense se ha venido enfriando en los últimos meses, algo que preocupa porque podría ser la antesala de una importante desaceleración del crecimiento económico de EEUU. El dato ha salido por encima del empleo registrado en julio (que fue de 89.000) pero bastante inferior a las previsiones del consenso que apuntaban a una creación de 160.000 puestos de trabajo y EEUU ha creado 142.000 en agosto con una tasa de desempleo que sí ha estado en línea con las expectativas, del 4,2%.

Federal Reserve officials anticipate signaling a potential interest rate cut today. Inflation nears the Fed's 2% target, and unemployment has risen to 4.1% this year. To balance inflation control and avoid a recession, officials may reduce rates by September to achieve an economic "soft landing." While Former President Trump opposes rate cuts before the election, Fed board member Christopher Waller considers a cut increasingly likely. Financial markets predict a rate cut at the next Fed meeting in mid-September. Jerome Powell, the Fed Chair, will discuss plans at the Jackson Hole conference in late August. Economists expect gradual rate cuts unless severe job market issues arise. Statements after Fed meetings may indicate further progress toward inflation goals. July data reveals inflation decreased to 2.5%, with falling rental prices and slower car insurance cost increases contributing to this decline. Wage growth has moderated, reducing inflationary pressures.Learn more on this news visit us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Em maio, a economia brasileira cresceu 0,25%, com o IBC-Br subindo também 1,30% em relação ao mês de maio do ano passado, apesar da tragédia climática no Rio Grande do Sul. O relatório Focus reduziu a projeção de inflação após nove semanas de alta. Nos EUA, a maioria dos mercados espera que o Fed corte juros em setembro. Christopher Waller, um dos dirigentes do Fed, indicou que esse momento está se aproximando, devido a um mercado de trabalho mais equilibrado e a moderação da inflação. Além disso, falamos sobre o que motivou a alta do Ibovespa de 119 mil pontos para 129 mil pontos no último mês.

Esse resultado, em conjunto com o varejo mais fraco, foi visto como positivo após um primeiro trimestre com números mais robustos. Os dirigentes do FED, ao longo da semana, demonstraram maior otimismo com a inflação, afastando os temores sobre novas altas de juros. Na China, os dados de abril sinalizaram fraqueza no setor de crédito e vendas no varejo. Em resposta, o governo anunciou medidas significativas para estabilizar o mercado imobiliário, incluindo financiamento adicional, flexibilização das regras de hipoteca e a possibilidade de comprar imóveis não vendidos.  No Brasil, a divulgação da Ata do Copom e a demissão do presidente da Petrobras, Jean Paul Prates, adicionaram volatilidade ao mercado, devido à percepção de um maior intervencionismo do governo federal. A pesquisa Focus desta semana mostrou que as medianas das expectativas de inflação permaneceram inalteradas. No entanto, o resultado da próxima semana poderá apresentar alguma desancoragem, refletindo a interpretação do mercado sobre o conteúdo da ata. ⁠Nos EUA, observamos o fechamento da curva de juros, com o rendimento do título de 10 anos atingindo 4,42%, e os índices acionários atingindo novas máximas, com o S&P500 subindo 1,54%, o Nasdaq avançando 2,12%, e o Dow Jones alcançando o marco histórico de 40.000 pontos. No Brasil, em meio aos ruídos mencionados anteriormente, os juros continuaram subindo (jan/27 +4 pontos-base), enquanto o Ibovespa registrou uma valorização de 0,43% e o real 1,03%. ⁠Na próxima semana, a atenção estará voltada para as divulgações dos PMI's ao redor do mundo, para os dados de inflação do Reino Unido e para o discurso do dirigente do FED, Christopher Waller.

In episode 242 of The Just Checking In Podcast we checked in with Christopher Waller. Chris is the Founder of ‘We Power On', which aims to improve men's lives through the power of walking, talking and connection. Every Sunday, Chris runs a walk and talk group in Epsom in Surrey for men from all walks of life to join and get whatever they are struggling with off their chest. Chris started the group in September 2022 following his own struggles with his mental health which came when he was signed off work for four months during the Covid-19 lockdown. The isolation he and all of us was forced to do, took him to the point of suicidality. Since Chris started it, We Power On has gone from strength to strength with a community now built because of his work, monthly social events and other activities which keeps people connected. In this episode we discuss: how and why Chris started We Power On, the persistence he needed to have when no man turned up to his walks for the first two months of the walks and the responsibility he now feels for a lot of the men who come to the walks. For Chris's mental health, we discuss the impact of the Covid-19 lockdown on his mental health, suicidality and how the walks have helped transform his life.

La acción de esta última pierde terreno tras decir que recortará otros 1.000 millones de euros en costes anuales. El banco británico gana más de un 6% tras anunciar una recompra de acciones por valor de 1.000 millones de dólares y el aumento de sus ganancias, aunque presenta unas previsiones de crecimiento modestas por su exposición a China. Allianz pierde después de que la aseguradora alemana dijera que su cartera inmobiliaria se ha depreciado un 6,2% en 2023. Como todos los viernes, hacemos a esta hora balance de la semana con Antonio Castelo, de iBroker.

Nossos sócios Luiz Eduardo Portella, Tomás Goulart e Yara Cordeiro debatem, no episódio de hoje, os principais acontecimentos da semana no Brasil e no mundo.⁠ ⁠No cenário internacional, já no final dessa semana, observamos a revisão do CPI (índice de preços ao consumidor) dos Estados Unidos. Entre as alterações, houve atualizações para toda série de 2023, sinalizando uma inflação de melhor composição e mais cadente. Na zona do euro, a Conselheira do Banco Central Europeu, Isabel Schnabel, concedeu entrevista dizendo ser importante evitar uma redução prematura das taxas de juros, mesmo diante dos indícios de desaceleração da economia na região com a divulgação da produção industrial. Na China, autoridades anunciaram medidas para estabilizar o mercado, além de uma série de ajustes nas regras de negociação das ações, que foram determinantes para recuperação dos ativos de risco do país.  No Brasil, a Ata do Copom não trouxe grandes novidades sobre o ritmo de cortes, porém a autoridade monetária demonstrou estar vigilante com o comportamento do mercado de trabalho. Além disso, tivemos a divulgação do IPCA de janeiro, apresentando um resultado acima das expectativas, com alguma pressão nos itens mais sensíveis à política monetária. Nos EUA, a dinâmica benigna da atividade econômica, somada às falas mais hawks por parte de alguns membros do FED, levaram a um movimento de abertura da curva de juros ao redor do mundo. A taxa de juros americana de 2 anos abriu 11bps, enquanto a taxa mais longa, de 10 anos, abriu 15bps. O S&P500 subiu 1,37%, Nasdaq 1,81%, e o dólar se manteve estável. No Brasil, os juros acompanharam o movimento de alta, e o Ibovespa subiu 0,66%. ⁠⁠⁠⁠Na próxima semana será fundamental acompanhar a divulgação do CPI nos EUA, além da fala do Christopher Waller, membro do FED, que tem sido um importante porta voz, podendo trazer mais clareza sobre a condução da política monetária norte americana. No Brasil, em função do feriado de Carnaval teremos uma agenda mais esvaziada. ⁠ Não deixe de acompanhar!

Deze week verhoogde zakenbank UBS zijn eindejaarsdoel voor de S&P 500. De achterliggende analyse is dat de winsten goed blijven liggen en de hoge waarderingen verder zullen stijgen omdat centrale banken de rente gaan verlagen. De UBS-strategen erkennen wel dat aandelen nu al een beetje duur zijn, maar tekenen daarbij aan dat ze nog niet op ‘nose bleed levels' zitten Oftewel: die strategen moeten, voordat ze van mening veranderen, eerst een flinke tik op de neus van Mr Market krijgen. Nu denken veel beleggers dat centrale banken het beleggingsjaar gaan bepalen. Uit de recentste enquête van Bank of America onder grote beleggers blijkt dat maar liefst 52% daarvan denkt dat de centrale banken de grote stimulans van de aandelenmarkt in 2024 gaan worden. Ik vind dat vreemd, want dat hebben we net al in het afgelopen kwartaal gezien. In oktober ging de markt uit van een Fed-rente eind 2024 van 4,8%. Nu is deze renteverwachting bijgesteld naar 3,9%. Er zijn dus al zes renteverlagingen ingeprijsd, terwijl de Fed dit jaar slechts negen keer vergadert. Aan die extreme daling ligt een combinatie ten grondslag van meevallende inflatiecijfers en een Fed-voorzitter die tijdens de decembervergadering onverwacht over renteverlagingen begon. We weten nog altijd niet waarom hij opeens zo'n draai maakte. Let wel, zes verlagingen is net zo veel als in 2008. Maar toen stond de economie op het randje van de afgrond. De geldmarkt gaat dus van een recessie uit, anders heb je geen zes renteverlagingen nodig. Maar ik denk dat de Fed heel wat voorzichtiger gaat zijn. Nu denk ik dat al een tijdje en heb ik voorlopig het gelijk aan mijn zijde, maar blijft dat ook zo? Oftewel: hoe zou ik in 2024 ongelijk kunnen krijgen? Ik kan een scenario bedenken waarbij de Fed ergens in het tweede kwartaal de eerste verlaging doorvoert. De markt zal daarin een bevestiging zien dat er nog veel meer en veel snellere verlagingen komen. Een dergelijk scenario hebben we al gezien bij de centrale banken in de emerging markets, met name in Oost Europa en Zuid-Amerika. Die waren sneller met hun renteverhogingen dan de Fed en de ECB en nu ook sneller met verlagen. En bij deze verlagingen zie je dat de markten nog enthousiaster anticiperen op nog meer van dergelijke stappen. In de afgelopen dagen gooide Fed-gouverneur Christopher Waller al wat koud water op deze oververhitte verwachtingen. Hij vond drie renteverlagingen wel genoeg. En alleen als de inflatie daadwerkelijk daalt, zal er worden verlaagd. 2024 wordt inderdaad een jaar waarin de centrale banken de stemming bepalen. Maar gezien het grote enthousiasme waarmee de markt op een sterke daling in de rentes rekent, eindigt dat waarschijnlijk weer in een teleurstelling. Nou ja, beter dan een bloedneus.

On the version of Hot off the Wire posted Jan. 17 at 7 a.m. CT: Medicine is en route to Gaza after Qatar and France mediated a deal between Israel and Hamas. The deal to supply both the hostages held by Hamas and Gaza residents comes more than 100 days into a conflict that shows no sign of ending. A senior Hamas official said Wednesday that for each box of medicine provided to the hostages, 1,000 boxes would be sent for use by Palestinian civilians. Gaza's Health Ministry says the Palestinian death toll from the war has surpassed 24,000 people. In Israel, around 1,200 people were killed during Hamas' Oct. 7 attack that sparked the war and saw some 250 people taken hostage by the militants. PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The Pacific Northwest is hunkering down after predictions of ice and freezing rain that could continue a weekend storm toll of damage and deaths. Parts of southwest Washington and western Oregon are under an ice storm warning through Wednesday morning. That includes the three largest Oregon cities, Portland, Salem and Eugene. Freezing rain is forecast in the Seattle area. Schools are closed, bus service curtailed and warming shelters open in Oregon. The forecast came as much of the United States coped with bitter weather that in some places put electricity supplies at risk. Another day of record cold temperatures swept much of the Rockies, Great Plains and Midwest on Tuesday. WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden has invited the top four congressional leaders and other lawmakers to the White House on Wednesday as members have struggled to reach agreement on aid for the Ukraine war. Republicans have insisted on pairing it with their own demands for securing the U.S. border. A bipartisan group of negotiators in the Senate have been working for weeks to find an agreement that would provide wartime money for Ukraine and Israel and also include new border policy that is strong enough to satisfy Republicans in both chambers. The talks appeared to slow last week as senators said significant disagreements remained. ATKINSON, N.H. (AP) — Donald Trump has scored a record victory in the Iowa caucuses and said Tuesday that he wants another big win in New Hampshire. Voters in the New England state get their turn Jan. 23rd to decide just how competitive the Republicans' nominating fight will be as the former president continues to dominate his party. PALMDALE, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say four men have been found dead Tuesday at a Southern California home but there's no immediate word on the cause of their deaths. Los Angeles County firefighters were sent to a home in Palmdale, a desert community north of Los Angeles, at about 4:30 p.m. Tuesday. They found four men down at the home and called sheriff's deputies. The men were pronounced dead at the scene. BEIJING (AP) — China's population fell by 2 million people in 2023 in the second straight annual decrease as births dropped and deaths jumped. The government's statistics bureau said Wednesday that the total population was 1.4 billion last year. The number of deaths rose by 690,000 to 11.1 million, more than double last year's increase. Demographers were expecting a rise in deaths in the early part of last year because of the sudden lifting of China's COVID-19 restrictions in late 2022. The number of births fell for the seventh year, reflecting a fall in the birth rate that is a long-running economic and societal challenge for China. NEW YORK (AP) — The prospect of a JetBlue-Spirit Airlines merger has taken a major hit in court. A federal judge on Tuesday sided with the Biden administration and blocked the $3.8 billion deal to combine the two carriers. The judge ruled that JetBlue's purchase of Spirit, the nation's largest low-cost airline, would harm competition — and increase prices for air travelers as a result. Meanwhile, JetBlue has maintained that it needs such a deal to compete with industry rivals. JetBlue and Spirit say they are considering whether to appeal the decision. But the ruling could also open the door for Frontier Airlines to make another attempt to buy the Florida-based Spirit. WASHINGTON (AP) — The Biden administration is expected to soon announce plans to redesignate Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen as a specially designated global terrorists. That's according to two people familiar with the White House decision and a U.S. official. The move comes as the Houthis have launched dozens of attacks on commercial vessels in the Red Sea. The group says it's attacked the ships in response to Israel's military operations in Gaza in the aftermath of Hamas' Oct. 7 attack on Israel. The three people familiar with the decision were not authorized to comment and requested anonymity to discuss the matter ahead of the expected formal announcement. The Red Sea attacks have already caused significant disruptions to global trade. WASHINGTON (AP) — A top Federal Reserve official said he's increasingly confident that inflation will continue falling this year back to the Fed's 2% target level, after two years of accelerating price spikes that hurt millions of American households. The official, Christopher Waller, an influential member of the Fed's Board of Governors, noted that inflation is slowing even as growth and hiring remain solid — a combination that he called “almost as good as it gets.” Waller's remarks follow recent comments from other senior Fed officials that suggest the central bank remains on track to cut its benchmark short-term interest rate this year. In December, the Fed's policymakers collectively forecast that they would cut their rate three times in 2024. DENVER (AP) — Court documents show the shooter who killed five people and endangered the lives of over 40 others at an LGBTQ+ nightclub in Colorado Springs plans to plead guilty to new federal charges. A plea agreement made public Tuesday would allow the defendant to avoid the death penalty. The documents show Anderson Aldrich made a deal to plead guilty to 50 hate crime charges and 24 firearm violations. Aldrich previously was sentenced to life in prison after pleading guilty to five state charges of murder and 46 counts of attempted murder — one for each person at Club Q during the November 2022 attack. Just three games were contested in the NBA Tuesday night and all three were high scoring, four games on the collegiate level involving top ten teams, eight games in the NHL and NFL news off the field. Also, Eagles center Jason Kelce intends to retire after 13 NFL seasons, the NBA fined Sacramento Kings coach Mike Brown $50,000 after his outburst against an official, and New York Knicks owner James Dolan faxes a lawsuit. WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court has allowed a court order to take effect that could loosen Apple's grip on its lucrative iPhone app store, and potentially affect billions of dollars in revenue a year. The justices rejected Apple's appeal of lower-court rulings that found some of Apple's app store rules for apps purchased on more than 1 billion iPhones constitute unfair competition under California law. Even so, Apple proposed a plan in court documents that would preserve most of its app store commissions, even when consumers use alternative payment options. The rejected appeal stemmed from an antitrust lawsuit filed by Epic Games, maker of the popular Fortnite video game. WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court has passed up a chance to intervene in the debate over bathrooms for transgender students, rejecting an appeal from an Indiana public school district. Federal appeals courts are divided over whether school policies enforcing restrictions on which bathrooms transgender students can use violate federal law or the Constitution. In the case the court rejected without comment on Tuesday, the Chicago-based 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld an order granting transgender boys access to the boys' bathroom. Legal battles over transgender rights are ongoing across the country. At least nine states are restricting transgender students to bathrooms that match the sex they were assigned at birth. —The Associated Press About this program Host Terry Lipshetz is managing editor of the national newsroom for Lee Enterprises.

Las bolsas europeas sufren fuertes caídas en la sesión de hoy.

Además, los sombríos datos económicos de China deterioran aún más el ánimo de los inversores. El STOXX 600 .STOXX pierde un 1,2% y alcanza su nivel más bajo en más de un mes. La presidenta del BCE, Christine Lagarde, dice que el banco central está en camino de conseguir que la inflación vuelva a su objetivo del 2%, pero que no se puede cantar victoria aún. El mercado ha retrasado las expectativas de recorte de tipos de marzo a abril, aunque siguen estimando un recorte total de unos 150 puntos básicos en las tasas este año. Los valores de lujo expuestos a China, como LVMH y Kering caen un 1,6% y un 2%, respectivamente. En otros mercados, el dólar cotiza en máximos de un mes, un día después de que el gobernador de la Reserva Federal, Christopher Waller, afirmara que, aunque la inflación se acerca al objetivo del 2%, la Fed no debería precipitarse a la hora de bajar los tipos. Además, el aumento inesperado de la inflación en el Reino Unido el mes pasado provoca un fuerte alza del rendimiento de la deuda pública británica.

A Bolsa fechou com forte baixa perto de -1,5% aos129,5 mil pontos e volume médio de R$ 22 bi, R$ 5 bi acima de terça passada quando foi apenas R$ 18 bi e R$ 3 bi abaixo da média de dezembro. Por que a bolsa performou assim? 1º. O Ibovespa abre o dia em leve baixa de -0,90% mesmo com petróleo e Petrobras subindo e minério em leve queda de -0,60% e Vale -0,30%. Ao longo do dia o discurso, as falas de Christopher Waller, diretor do Fed, derrubaram os mercados com juros e dólar subindo e bolsas caindo. Vamos às principais falas de Waller: 1. Dados dos últimos meses permitem que o Fed considere cortar taxas neste ano. 2. As mudanças na trajetória política devem ser “cuidadosamente calibradas” e “não apressadas” 3. Estou mais confiante de que estamos muito perto de alcançar uma inflação sustentável de 2% 4. Estamos perto, mas precisarei de mais informações nos próximos meses para ter certeza 5. O Fed poderá cortar as taxas este ano, desde que a inflação não se recupere ou permaneça alta 6. Esta visão é consistente com as projeções do Fed de três cortes de 25 pontos base em 2024 7. O tempo e o número real de cortes dependerão dos dados 8. A atividade econômica moderou-se 9. A definição da política deve proceder com mais cautela para evitar um aperto excessivo 10. As condições financeiras permanecem restritivas Qual foi a principal reação do mercado? As taxas de juros dos títulos de 10 anos subiram de 3.96% para 4.06%, levando o dólar a valorizar 1% frente o DXY (cesta de moedas fortes como euro, libra esterlina, yen, dólar canadense e outras) e ações caírem com Dow Jones -0,70% e Nasdaq -0,30%.

On the version of Hot off the Wire posted Nov. 29 at 7 a.m. CT: RAFAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — International mediators appeared to have made progress Wednesday on extending the truce in Gaza. They are encouraging the territory's Hamas rulers to keep freeing hostages in return for the release of Palestinian prisoners and further respite from Israel's air and ground offensive. The deal will otherwise expire within a day. Israel has welcomed the release of dozens of hostages in recent days and says it will maintain the truce if Hamas keeps freeing captives. But its other major goal is the annihilation of the armed group that has ruled Gaza for 16 years and orchestrated the deadly attack on Israel that triggered the war. That seems less and less likely. TOKYO (AP) — A crew member who was recovered from the ocean after a U.S. military Osprey aircraft carrying six people crashed Wednesday off southern Japan has been pronounced dead. Japanese coast guard officials say the cause of the crash and the status of the five others on the aircraft were not immediately known. Initial reports said the aircraft was carrying eight people, but the U.S. military later revised the number to six. The Osprey is a tiltrotor aircraft that can function as a helicopter and a turboprop aircraft. U.S. and Japanese officials say the aircraft belonged to Yokota Air Base in western Tokyo. U.S. Air Force officials at Yokota said they are still confirming information and had no immediate comment. CLEVELAND (AP) — An early blast of cold and snow shut down schools in Cleveland on Tuesday and made driving on heavily traveled Interstate 90 in northern Ohio treacherous. A lake-effect snow warning was issued by the National Weather Service for areas from Cleveland eastward into Erie, Pennsylvania. Just before 11 a.m. Tuesday, the weather service said observers had reported 13 inches or more in Ashtabula County in Ohio and Erie County in Pennsylvania along with 11.6 inches in Lake County, Ohio. A foot or more of snow also had fallen across a largely rural stretch of upstate New York east of Lake Ontario, with one spot recording 23 inches. PLAINS, Ga. (AP) — Rosalynn Carter is set to receive her final accolades and farewells in Plains, Georgia. It's the same tiny town where the former first lady was born. There, she and former President Jimmy Carter based his 1976 presidential campaign and returned after their White House years as they became global humanitarians. Rosalynn Carter died Nov. 19. Her funeral Wednesday will be held at Maranatha Baptist Church. The service comes on the last of three days of public tributes. The 99-year-old former president attended a memorial service Tuesday in Atlanta. Rosalynn Carter will be buried in a plot she will one day share with her husband. WASHINGTON (AP) — The global economy, which has proved surprisingly resilient this year, is expected to falter next year under the strain of wars, still-elevated inflation and continued high interest rates. The Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development estimated Wednesday that international growth will slow to 2.7% in 2024 from an expected 2.9% pace this year. That would amount to the slowest growth since the pandemic year of 2020. A key factor is that the OECD expects the world's two biggest economies, the United States and China, to decelerate next year. The U.S. economy is forecast to expand just 1.5% in 2024, from 2.4% in 2023, as the Federal Reserve's interest rate increases restrain growth. LOS ANGELES (AP) — Sean “Diddy” Combs has temporarily stepped down as chairman of his television network Revolt amid multiple sexual abuse allegations against the music mogul. Revolt announced Combs' decision on social media Tuesday. It's not clear when he will return to his media company – which said Combs previously had “no operational or day-to-day role” at the network. Combs declined to comment on the matter. The network has been preparing to celebrate its 10th anniversary. Earlier this month, R&B singer Cassie accused Combs of raping and beating her over the duration of their decadeslong, on-and-off relationship. After Cassie, two more women came forward to accuse him of sexual abuse. DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — The Emirati president-designate for the upcoming United Nations COP28 climate talks has forcefully denied a report alleging his nation planned to use the summit to strike oil and gas deal, a day before the summit was due to being. Sultan al-Jaber, who also leads the massive state-run Abu Dhabi National Oil Co., called the allegations Wednesday from a BBC report “an attempt to undermine the work of the COP28 presidency” before the talks begin Thursday. The report cited what it described as “leaked briefing documents” the broadcaster described as showing the Emirates planned to discuss fossil fuel deals with 15 nations. The BBC did not immediately respond to a request for comment. BLUFFTON, S.C. (AP) — Nikki Haley says former President Donald Trump causes too much chaos to be successful in a second White House term. She reiterated her argument about the GOP front-runner at a large town hall Monday in her home state of South Carolina. The former governor and United Nations ambassador drew the largest crowd of her primary campaign so far as she tries to close the gap with Trump just weeks before the Iowa caucuses kick off the Republican nominating calendar. Haley says the time is now right for a new generation in U.S. leadership. Officials at a satellite campus of the University of South Carolina said around 2,500 people gathered for the event. NEW YORK (AP) — It's not just you. Across the U.S., prices at the pump have felt milder in recent months. Gas prices have fallen or remained steady since September 19 — marking about a 70-day trajectory of decline. That's according to Andrew Gross, a spokesperson for motor club AAA. As of Tuesday, the national average for gas prices stood just below $3.25. That's down 25 cents from a month ago and 30 cents less than this time last year. Experts point to recent declines in oil prices and a seasonal dip in demand, which is projected to continue in the coming months. A change in trajectory is always possible of course — particularly if there are shifts in the larger global market. WASHINGTON (AP) — A key Federal Reserve official raised the possibility that the Fed could decide to cut its benchmark interest rate as early as spring if inflation keeps declining steadily. The official, Christopher Waller, cautioned that inflation is still too high and that it's not yet certain if a recent slowdown in price increases can be sustained. But he sounded the most optimistic notes of any Fed official since the central bank launched its aggressive streak of rate hikes. Waller is regarded as a relatively “hawkish" official, meaning that he typically favors higher rates to combat inflation rather than low rates to boost job growth. But he has also become somewhat of a bellwether for the Fed's overall rate-setting committee. American consumers are feeling slightly more confident this month as the all-important holiday shopping season kicks into high gear. The Conference Board, a business research group, said Tuesday that its consumer confidence index rose to 102 from 99.1 in October. Analysts were expecting a reading of 101. The October reading was revised down from an original reading of 102.6. The index measuring Americans short-term expectations for income, business and job market rose to 77.8 in November from 72.7 in October. It was the third straight reading below 80 for future expectations, which historically signals a recession within a year. NEW YORK (AP) — Sports Illustrated is the latest media company damaged by being less than forthcoming about who or what is writing its stories at the dawn of the artificial intelligence age. The website Futurism reported that the once-grand magazine used articles with “authors” who apparently don't exist, with photos generated by AI. The magazine denied claims that some articles themselves were AI-assisted, but has cut ties with a vendor it hired to produce the articles. The Gannett newspaper chain and the tech website CNET each had unsuccessful experiments with AI this past year and had kept readers in the dark about what they were doing. College football's four unbeaten majors top the College Football Playoff rankings, the NBA's in-season tournament has its elite eight, college basketball's top-ranked team wins again, and a win for the Wild's new coach in his debut. —The Associated Press About this program Host Terry Lipshetz is a senior producer for Lee Enterprises.

Uluslararası Para Fonu (IMF) Avrupa Bölgesel Ekonomik Görünümü raporunu yayımladı. IMF, Euro Bölgesi'nde enflasyonun daha uzun süre yüksek kalabileceğini, Avrupa Merkez Bankası'nın (ECB) fiyat baskılarını ortadan kaldırmak için gelecek yıl boyunca faiz oranlarını yüksek seviyelerde tutması gerektiğini bildirdi. Raporda, "Avrupa'nın görünümü, enflasyonun kademeli olarak düşmesiyle birlikte yumuşak bir iniş yönünde... Bölge genelindeki büyümenin geçen yıl yüzde 2,7'den 2023'te yüzde 1,3'e yavaşlaması ve 2024'te yüzde 1,5'e yükselmesi bekleniyor" ifadeleri yer aldı. Avrupa Merkez Bankası Başkanı (AMB) Christine Lagarde, mevduat faizini yüzde 4'te tutmanın enflasyonu dizginlemek için yeterli olacağını, ancak yetkililerin ihtiyaç duymaları halinde borçlanma maliyetlerini yeniden yükseltmeyi düşüneceklerini söyledi. Lagarde "Şu anda bulunduğumuz seviye, eğer yeterince uzun süre devam ettirebilirsek enflasyonu yüzde 2'lik hedefimize geri getirmeye önemli bir katkı sağlayacaktır. Büyük şoklar ortaya çıkarsa, şokların niteliğine bağlı olarak, bunu yeniden gözden geçirmemiz gerekecek" dedi. Buna rağmen tüketiciler enflasyonun yüksek seyretmeye devam edeceğini düşünüyor. Zira Avrupa Merkez Bankasının Tüketici Beklentileri Anketi'ne göre, tüketicilerin gelecek 12 ay için enflasyon beklentisi yüzde 3,5'ten yüzde 4'e çıktı. Küresel piyasaların genelinde Fed yetkililerinin enflasyonla mücadelenin henüz bitmediğine ilişkin vurguları öne çıktı. Fed Başkanı Jerome Powell da IMF panelinde yaptığı konuşmada Fed yetkililerinin enflasyondaki yavaşlamadan memnun olduğunu ancak yeterince kısıtlayıcı politika uyguladıklarından emin olmadıklarını söyledi. Powell Fed'in gerektiğinde daha fazla sıkılaştırma yapmaktan çekinmeyeceğini belirtti. Fed Yönetim Kurulu Üyesi Christopher Waller ise tahvil faizlerinde son haftalarda görülen artışın, tahvil piyasası için "depremden" başka bir şey olmadığını aktardı. Waller, ABD ekonomisinin üçüncü çeyrekteki yüzde 4,9'luk büyümesinin ise Fed'in bir sonraki politika hamlesini değerlendirirken izlenmesi gereken bir performans olduğunu dile getirdi. Zira ABD'nin 30 yıllık tahvil faizi, yaklaşık 7 baz puan yükselerek yüzde 4,76'ya çıktı. 10 yıllık tahvil faizi de yaklaşık 9 baz puan yükselerek yüzde 4,60'a çıktı. Bu arada kripto paralarda da yeniden bir hareketlenme mevcut. Uzun süre dipte seyretmişti ama şimdi yeniden kullanıcıları nezdinde bir yatırım aracı olarak öne çıkıyor gibi görünüyor. Zira Kripto para birimi Bitcoin, 37 bin 972 dolarla son 18 ayın zirvesini test etti. ABD enflasyonla mücadele ederken ekonomide olası risklere karşı Çin ile de ilişkileri sıkı tutmaya çalışıyor. ABD Hazine Bakanı Janet Yellen, Çin'in ekonomik ilişkilerden sorumlu Başbakan Yardımcısı ile "iletişimi yoğunlaştırma" konusunda anlaştıklarını belirterek, borç sorunlarından iklim değişikliğiyle ilgili ekonomik konulara kadar küresel zorluklar üzerinde birlikte çalışmaya kararlı olduklarını ifade etti. Yellen, ayrışmanın hem ABD'ye hem de Çin'e zarar vereceğini ve dünya için istikrarı bozacağını vurguladı. Aynı zamanda ABD Başkanı Joe Biden Çin Devlet Başkanı Şi Jinping ile 15 Kasım'da gerçekleşecek Asya Pasifik Ekonomik İşbirliği (APEC) Zirvesi'nde bir araya gelecek. Şimdi gözler haftaya açıklanacak ABD enflasyon verilerinde olacak. Dünya genelinde enflasyonla mücadelede gerektiği kadar adım atılıp atılmadığı sorgulanmaya daha uzun süre devam edecek gibi görünüyor.

Primer análisis con Marc Ribes, cofundador de Blackbird, en una sesión en la que los mercados siguen “alargando” el buen dato de IPC de junio de EEUU. Los buenos datos de inflación de junio han sido recibidos con optimismo por los operadores, que ahora no creen que la Reserva Federal suba tipos más allá de su próxima reunión del 27 de julio. “El mercado ya no ve que la Reserva Federal se vuelva más agresiva cuando la inflación se está desacelerando. Además, uno de los miembros de la Fed más agresivos, James Bullard, ha presentado su renuncia este jueves. Otra subida de 25 puntos básicos en la reunión de julio de la Fed tiene más del 90% de probabilidades. Pero las posibilidades de otra alza de tipos tras la de julio son cada vez menos evidentes, por lo que los mercados de renta variable están recogiendo la relajación de las expectativas de la Reserva Federal. Con todo, desde el banco central estadounidense siguen apostando por utilizar un tono “hawkish” y Christopher Waller, gobernador de la Fed, ha insistido en la necesidad de subir los tipos, al menos, dos veces este año. “Estamos ya cerca del objetivo de inflación del 2% marcado por la Fed”, apunta Marc Ribes. Ahora hay que estar pendientes de la temporada de resultados empresariales, en especial los del sector bancario para ver hasta qué punto les afectó la crisis de los bancos regionales americanos de hace unos meses y cómo les está ayudando el actual contexto de subidas de tipos de interés.

This metric tracks the subset consumer services prices remaining after stripping out housing. What's left represents only about a quarter of the headline Consumer Price Index. Sam Lau opines that amounts to “a pretty small chunk of the inflation basket to guide monetary policy.” Giving the Fed the benefit of the doubt, Jeff Mayberry notes the central bankers have developed narratives around disinflation in goods prices and an outlook for cooling housing costs, but they have no disinflation for services ex-housing. Then Jeff and Sam list the macro news due the week of Feb. 27-March 3 (28:25). These include durable goods and the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller house price indices (Monday), consumer confidence (Wednesday), a Neel Kashkari speech and ISM manufacturing (Wednesday), a Christopher Waller speech (Thursday) and ISM services (Friday).

L'inflation élevée qui a marqué le paysage économique mondial en 2021 n'est pas aussi provisoire qu'on le pensait. Elle va se prolonger en 2022. Ce phénomène est un casse-tête pour les banques centrales qui devront maitriser cette hausse des prix, sans casser la reprise économique.  Après une année 2020 marquée par un arrêt de l'économie mondiale en raison du Covid-19, la forte reprise économique surtout dans les pays développés a fait exploser la demande que ce soit pour les biens de consommation ou les biens intermédiaires. En face, l'offre a eu du mal à suivre. Cette situation a provoqué des pénuries de matières premières et par conséquence une forte hausse du cours de ces dernières, notamment ceux des hydrocarbures. Le secteur de l'électronique connait lui aussi des pénuries, notamment de semi-conducteurs, pénalisant fortement par exemple la production automobile. Les goulots d'étranglements dans de nombreux ports du monde et l'explosion des prix du transport maritimes sont d'autres facteurs qui ont contribué à l'inflation qui n'épargne presque aucune région du monde.  ► À lire aussi : 2021: année de crises majeures et Pénuries: comment réparer les chaînes d'approvisionnement? Pour maitriser cette hausse des prix, les banques centrales disposent d'un outil : les taux directeurs. En relevant leurs taux d'intérêt à court terme, les banques centrales ralentissent l'accès au crédit, ce qui réduit la masse monétaire en circulation. Plusieurs banques de pays émergents ont déjà relevé leurs taux. C'est le cas au Mexique, au Brésil, en Russie mais également en Angleterre ou encore en Norvège. Aux États-Unis, où l'inflation est au plus haut depuis 40 ans, la Réserve fédérale américaine (FED) envisage trois hausses de taux en 2022. Il s'agit pour l'instant de prévisions, en revanche la FED est plus décidée dans sa politique de réduction d'achats d'actifs qu'elle veut ramener à zéro en mars 2022.  Autre stratégie, la Banque centrale européenne (BCE) a elle choisi de ne pas relever les taux l'an prochain. Pour les dirigeants de la BCE, la propagation d'Omicron génère de l'incertitude ce qui veut dire que l'activité dans la zone euro pourrait en souffrir. La Banque centrale européenne craint en effet qu'un resserrement de sa politique monétaire ne freine la reprise économique post-Covid. D'autant que l'augmentation des taux pourrait avoir un impact sur certains États européens très endettés qui se financent à des coûts très bas.  ► À lire aussi : Les banques centrales en ordre de marche pour lutter contre l'inflation Les banques centrales des pays riches savent que des hausses des taux rapides et trop fortes peuvent être inefficaces et ralentir une croissance encore fragile.  C'est pour cette raison que la FED, la plus puissante banque centrale du monde, n'a fait que des annonces pour l'année prochaine. Elle se laisse le temps de voir si l'inflation s'enracine et si le nouveau variant du Covid-19 pèsera sur l'activité économique avant de passer à l'action. Christopher Waller, un des membres du conseil des gouverneurs de la FED l'a dit ouvertement en affirmant que le moment approprié pour une première hausse dépendra de l'évolution de l'activité économique. Il est donc difficile de savoir ce que vont faire les banques centrales en 2022, d'autant que la situation sanitaire reste très fragile.

Daily Stock Market News

Here's what is happening in the markets today, Thursday, May 13th.Inflation concerns: the major indices haven't found a direction yet after yesterday's slide. Yesterday, the CPI report showed that inflation in the year to April hit a 13-year high. It climbed at its fastest pace since 2008. The Consumer Price Index came in at 4.2% vs. expectations of 3.6%, which is already ahead of the Fed's 2% target. Yes, we know that this is due to shortages caused by COVID, but there are concerns over how long it will take for prices to settle down. The only CPI reading that matters is the next one. Future readings will better help policymakers understand whether inflation is less “transitory” than it appears to be. The Dow had its worst day since January, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell over 2%.What does the Fed say? Investors today will be looking for further comments on the inflation situation as the Fed's Thomas Barkin, Christopher Waller and James Bullard speak at several events. Should the price pressures run too hot for a sustained period of time, the Fed may be forced to taper or even bring some rate hikes forward. The sentiment saw U.S. stock index futures flash red again overnight.More data is also ahead, with producer prices for April and weekly jobless claims.The Colonial Pipeline, the largest gasoline pipeline in the U.S., reopened late on Wednesday after a ransomware attack caused it to close five days ago. Colonial doesn't plan to make a payment to the hackers (Dark Side), according to the Washington Post.  Yesterday, the criminal gang posted the names of another three new targets on the dark web that have been cyberattacked. While the companies have not publicly confirmed the breaches, one is said to be based in Illinois, one in the U.K. and the other in Brazil.Bitcoin (BTC-USD) is falling after Tesla's (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk is ditching Bitcoin. He said he would suspend vehicle purchases using Bitcoin. "We are concerned about rapidly increasing use of fossil fuels for Bitcoin mining and transactions, especially coal, which has the worst emissions of any fuel," he wrote in a tweet. "Cryptocurrency is a good idea on many levels and we believe it has a promising future, but this cannot come at a great cost to the environment." Isn't it odd that Musk, who runs an electric vehicle company with the mission of reducing fossil fuel emissions, wasn't aware of the vast amounts of energy used to mine bitcoin? Facebook (FB) is making another effort at cryptocurrencies. Their crypto called Diem (formerly known as Libra), is relocating its main operations from Switzerland to the U.S. as it scales back its global ambitions. "It's a realization that the effort will require a presence that is acceptable to U.S. regulators,". Facebook first unveiled Libra in June 2019 as part of an effort to expand beyond social networking and "empower the billions of people" that don't have bank accounts.

NAB Morning Call
Bitcoin stalls, but US economy set to rip

NAB Morning Call

Monday 19th April 2021 There’s still plenty of positive sentiment around as the US, UK and Europe continue to vaccinate at pace. Europe has picked up pace and now jabbed 20 percent of its adult population. The Fed’s Christopher Waller said the economy is “set to rip”, with 6.5 percent growth this year. Yet, despite all the positive news, we have been seeing a decline in bond yields. In today’s Morning Call NAB’s Rodrigo Catril suggests it might be because concerns over inflation have been overdone and the market is coming round to the message that the Fed is trying to deliver that any rises will be transitory. Bitcoin dropped 15 percent in value on Friday, with unsubstantiated reports that the US might be clamping down on money laundering. Today is fairly quiet for data releases, with US earnings reports the only numbers of any consequence.

一週財經聚焦 一、3月31日,拜登在匹茲堡的一場演講上宣佈將推出一項總額達2.2兆美元的基礎設施建設一籃子計劃。 這對美國的經濟發展有用嗎?拜登心裡想的是什麼?我們又該怎麼從金融市場的角度看這個事情呢? 國際媒體相關報導 ●CNBC:「A closer look at Biden's infrastructure and tax proposals」(近距離看清楚拜登的基礎建設計劃和加稅) ●倫敦金融時報FT:「Biden unveils $2tn infrastructure plan and big corporate tax rise」(拜登宣佈了兩兆美元的基礎建設計劃);小標:「President announces first stage of sweeping effort to reshape pandemic-hit US economy」(他宣佈了第一階段,目標就是為了重塑美國的疫後經濟) ●華爾街日報WSJ:「Memo to Biden: Stimulus Is Easy. Investment Is Hard.」(刺激很容易,投資很難);小標:「The president's infrastructure plan could boost long-term growth—if targeted effectively」(如果有效率的執行,這個計劃可以推動長期增長) 分析解讀 美國賓州匹茲堡市曾以鋼鐵廠聞名世界,為美國工業的崛起提供了動力。伴隨著美國經濟的產業升級,匹茲堡也逐步轉型成為以科技、醫療保健、金融為主的都市。 做為美國經濟發展的見證者,匹茲堡備受美國總統拜登的偏愛。3月31日,在匹茲堡的一場演講上,拜登宣佈將推出一項總額高達2.2兆美元的基礎設施建設一籃子計劃。分析認為,拜登選擇匹茲堡公佈這項計劃,在經濟和政治上引起了重要的共鳴。 多位經濟學家認為,拜登的基礎設施建設計劃,將幫助美國經濟盡快從新冠疫情之中復甦。自拜登上台以來,其提出的財政計劃便帶有民主黨「寬財政」的特徵。如果該計劃最終能推出,將對美國經濟產生拉動效應。不過,這份「天價」的投資將增加美國政府的債務。對此,拜登承諾美國長期經濟計劃,不會進一步增加政府債務。 此外,為了支付該計劃的費用,拜登提出了《美國製造稅收計劃》。但是經濟學家們認為,他提出的增稅計劃無法彌補同期支出,而且面臨著共和黨和商界團體的反對。 拜登的基礎設施建設一籃子計劃為期8年,是拜登「Build Back Better」計劃的一部分,目的是重建美國老化的基礎設施、推動電動汽車和清潔能源,及創造就業機會。據拜登介紹,這一計劃由兩部分組成,分別是:美國就業計劃和美國家庭計劃。美國家庭計劃將於幾周之後公佈。具體來看,根據拜登的計劃: 美國未來8年將投資6210億美元用於改善交通基礎設施,修復和更新高速公路、橋梁、港口、機場、軌道等公共交通基礎設施。 其中1740億美元將專門用於發展電動汽車市場,在全國建立50萬個電動汽車充電樁。 5800億美元用於振興製造業、研發創新與勞動技能培訓。 4000億美元用於改善老弱病殘者護理服務。 1000億美元用於數位基礎設施建設。 3000多億美元投入住房改善、學校設施更新、電網基礎設施改造、清潔飲用水和廢水處理設施改善等領域。 在2月推出1.9兆美元的新冠病毒刺激計劃之後,拜登在短期內再度推出基礎設施計劃,原因主要有兩個: 首先,美國正飽受老舊基礎設施之苦,而且伴隨著全球經濟的復甦,美國政府需要對新技術進行投資。 其次,對於總統來說,在選舉結束不久後推出大型支出計劃,國會通過的可能性較高。標普美國首席經濟學家Beth Ann Bovino預計,2.2兆美元的基礎設施計劃,在10年內可能為整個美國經濟增加多達5.7兆美元的收入。 但為了支付該計劃的費用,拜登提出《美國製造稅收計劃》。他提議將企業稅稅率從21%提高到28%,並把對跨國公司徵稅的最低稅率提高到21%。據報導,美國稅法也將更新,使公司不能與外國企業合併,或將總部轉移到避稅天堂來避稅。 除此之外,拜登還將增加美國國稅局的執法力度。拜登表示,他提出的稅收改革能在15年內籌集1兆美元。他同時強調,年收入低於40萬美元的人不會被加稅。 儘管拜登的計劃雄心勃勃,但是這一籃子計劃接下來能否獲得國會通過,仍是一個問號。美國國會正準備就拜登的基礎設施投資計劃展開一場持久戰,民主黨、共和黨以及國會內部,都在就2.2兆美元的投資成本,以及未來幾年如何分配這筆資金展開爭論。眾議院院長佩洛西表示,她希望最早在7月4日通過拜登的大型基礎設施計劃,儘管共和黨人目前幾乎一致反對該計劃,尤其加稅這部分。 華爾街一直對可能的增稅持謹慎態度,並希望華盛頓的僵局能緩和拜登的計劃。JP Morgan發言人於3月31日表示,該行首席執行官Jamie Dimon認為,美國公司的企業稅率必須在全球範圍內具有競爭力,而現在正是如此。 一旦稅收計劃未被國會通過,那麼聯準會是否會成為買單的人?對此,聯準會理事會成員Christopher Waller表示,聯準會不會調整利率或債券購買政策,為聯邦政府不斷上升的赤字而融資。 如果拜登的整套計劃成為法律,它們將標誌著未來將用一個雄心勃勃的聯邦支出,來解決長期存在的社會和經濟問題。 認真來說,這個計畫還是有兩個它不得不投資的方向。 第一,疫情退潮後美國經濟將更強、更公平; 第二,對企業股東顯然不是好消息,因為企業將更難用現金提高股利及買回庫藏股。不過這對於美國社會長期認為資本主義的不公平,還是有好處的。 拜登的作法雖可能被市場人士嗆聲,但卻包含了三項長期性經濟政策轉型的要件,尤其是有利於緩和各界對通膨升高的憂慮。這三個要件包括: 第一,基礎建設計畫對生產力與經濟成長更有利; 第二,降低經濟對寬鬆貨幣政策的過度依賴,以緩和金融市場風險以及資源錯置的流弊; 第三,這些措施確實能夠從總體與個體層面,降低金融動盪的威脅。 儘管拜登的計劃絕對有利於美國經濟,但也可能會令美股和美債承受壓力,如果共和黨打死不讓,美國政府可能會讓債券市場來填補財政缺口,比如將基準收益率由2%提高至3%。那10年期美國國債觸及2%或更高的影響,將對股市產生負面影響。更高的債券收益率,加上投資級公司債券的額外息差,對股票一旦構成競爭壓力,最可能的結果,就是出現一次股票市場的大回調。 而且這種打嗎啡式的快速反彈並非沒有風險。儘管拜登的最新計劃很可能提高生產率,但這種迅猛的擴張,有可能會加劇通貨膨脹,導致過高的槓桿,從而為這種上漲的終止埋下隱憂。 二、3月30日晚間,在小米為期兩天的新品發佈會上,雷軍激動的宣佈要進軍電動車產業。他說,這是他人生當最後一次創業項目。 一時之間,「跨界造車」幾乎成了世界上所有科技產業轉型的必修課。電動車產業真的這麼迷人?裡面又有多少的坑應該避免?投資市場又為什麼這麼著迷呢? 國際媒體相關報導 ●彭博商業週刊Bloomberg:「Phonemaker Xiaomi Plans to Plow $10 Billion into Electric Cars」(小米準備投資100億美元進入電動車) ●華爾街日報WSJ:「Will Xiaomi Be the Apple of Electric Vehicles?」(小米能夠成為另一個蘋果電動車嗎?) ●倫敦金融時報FT:「This is the electric vehicle bubble. And this is the crash. Don't say we didn't warn you.」(這是一個電動車泡沫,而且即將崩裂。別說我沒有警告你。) 分析解讀 雖然因為疫情肆虐,各地車展如東京車展、科隆車展,甚至米蘭車展全部停擺,但汽車產業卻是片刻不停歇,電動車帶來的跨界造車熱欲罷不能。 先看中國,3月30日,雷軍宣佈小米要造車,小米股價立刻飈升了12%;日前百度董事長李彥宏也披露了百度與吉利汽車的合作進展;另外,美國蘋果公司已經與現代、日產等車企討論合作生產電動汽車;更不要說我們台灣的鴻海MIH了。 這不禁令人想起本世紀初,中國加入WTO之後,各地一度興起的「造車熱」。當時業內流傳過的一句調侃:「幹不了別的就去造汽車」。 不過,與當年汽車市場銷量連年增長的背景不同,如今全球汽車市場和經濟,正一起進入了新一輪電動車轉型升級的爬坡期。隨著電動化、智慧化科技變革為汽車產業帶來新機遇,連一些科技企業都試圖以自己引以為傲的「互聯網基因」,進入,或者準備進入電動車製造業。那麼,電動車的市場空間真的這麼迷人?這些跨界造車的新玩家要怎麼後發制人?它們應該怎麼避免誤入歧途? 製造汽車不是一件簡單的工程。汽車產業一向被視為資金密集、技術密集的行業,現在由於電動化、智慧化科技革命的興起,其技術含量和資金密集有增無減。曾有人比較說,花幾十億元資金搞家電、做IT,也許還算得上是個「大手筆」,但要說造車就顯得有些「小兒科」了。 汽車作為大宗商品,佔家庭支出的份額較大,消費者往往更依賴品牌效應。因此從這個角度看,跨界造車的新玩家們如果想從傳統車企手中搶得客戶,首先得下功夫吸引消費者,並建立品牌信任。 除了正在積極轉型的傳統車企,特斯拉、蔚來等造車新勢力已佔據了一定的市場地位,而此時包括蘋果在內的互聯網科技公司又加入戰局,市場空間肯定越來越小。這些跨界造車的科技公司能否贏得客戶信賴,存活下來,還是未知數,不過烏鴉已經出現。 大陸的新華社28日已經刊登了一篇題為「這些毛病,得治!——聚焦新能源汽車行業發展隱憂」的評論,指出特斯拉(Tesla)對車輛無故加速,和理想ONE對安全氣囊未彈出等事件,敷衍卸責。日本豐田(Toyota)董事長豐田章男也表示:「電動車是炒作出來的熱潮,效果被過度誇大,甚至會拖垮整個產業。」 然而,一個不容忽視的事實是,無論是蘋果、小米等科技公司,還是傳統車企,幾乎只要發布與跨界造車相關的消息,都能引發資本市場的熱捧。如今電動車已經是資本市場的風口,企業一旦曝光電動車計劃,就會帶來股價上揚。我們公司投資部門最近買了一本上市公司四季報,發現一半以上的台灣上市公司都說要轉型做電動車。 確實,電動車領域意味著人工智慧、5G等新興科技的想像空間,不過,會不會太多人都想進入這個市場? 美國研究機構CB Insights與Dow Jones Market Data資料顯示,2020年市場投資電動車企業的金額,已經高達了280億美元以上。儘管華爾街已挹注數百億美元扶植電動車與其相關企業,但想實現電動車轉型目標,恐怕仍需更多資金。 在電動車龍頭Tesla崛起帶動下,全球汽車業朝著電動車發展已成既定事實。但未來是否能成功,目前還沒有人知道。 越來越多國家在未來10年或20年將淘汰內燃機汽車,令車商體會到發展電動車的迫切性。根據瑞銀集團(UBS)預估,全球車商來自於電動車的營收將大幅成長,從目前的1,820億美元升至2030年的1.16兆美元。相較之下,這些車商來自內燃機汽車的營收則將減少,從1.77兆美元降至1.07兆美元,至於他們在軟體的營收將成長至近2兆美元。預估20 年後電動車產值,將是智慧手機產值的 2.3 倍,電動車銷量在 2035 到 2040 年間有機會超越燃油車。 而多國政府推動環保政策,因此帶動電動車日益普及,也讓市場興起投資電動車與其相關企業的風潮。難怪過去投資熱潮主要集中於特斯拉與少數幾家電池公司,但現在只要是電動車相關企業就會受到投資人的青睞。近日電動車企業甚至紛紛透過特殊目的併購公司(SPAC,或稱空白支票公司)上市,這些募資的熱潮僅是開端而已,未來勢必出現更多的案例。 不能否認,特斯拉的出現延展了人們對於汽車的想像,突破既有的造車框架和思維,讓許多科技迷認為,特斯拉就是一台「裝了輪子的iPhone」。結合電動車和自動駕駛技術,特斯拉不但開起來更安全省力,車上軟體還能遠端不定期更新,車子買愈久,性能反而愈來愈好。 汽車生產的方式,也將因為電動車的興起,出現了轉變,不再只由一家企業包辦所有工作,跨企業合作將成為趨勢。傳統車廠轉型往往需要耗費大量資源、金錢與時間,為了加快電動車的研發速度,車廠將從過去的單打獨鬥,變成互相結盟。這對汽車產業來說,是個需要面對的挑戰。 除此之外,任何企業想要把握汽車產業這「百年一遇」的轉型商機,思維上必須從生產製造端轉向消費者端。台灣如果只做電動車的硬體,最後還是會變成代工廠,必須朝車用軟體開發走,產業才能往上提升。NVIDIA執行長黃仁勳表示,人們買電動車,主要動機除了環保,更看重的是電動車帶來的體驗。這是汽車產業一開始最容易忽略的關鍵。 對於台灣來說,我還是覺得台灣有機會,我也看見一些機構建議了台灣往四個方向發展: 第一,協助非傳統車廠「打群架」開發車款; 第二,有機會供給全球車廠系統及關鍵零組件。由於台灣廠商具備供應車用高功率模組實力,包括晶片、模組、功率轉換控制器等層級,都已經在累積技術與佈局; 第三,軟硬整合衍生的人機介面商機,面板廠商有機會受益; 第四,發展新型態應用服務系統。 但臺灣也缺乏如同特斯拉、福特汽車(Ford Motor Company)等大型車廠,沒有穩定的造車廠牌搶攻國際市場。另外,臺灣也缺乏鋰電池、自駕技術。我更相信Mind- set才是關鍵,也就是我一直說的MaaS 3.0。 所謂人生有夢最美,看來電動車就是現在這個世界很多人最大的夢,可是築夢仍須踏實,睜大眼睛,尋找、把握每個機會,仍然是最重要的功課。 《經濟學人》總評 封面故事 這期經濟學人的封面設計淺顯易懂,在湛藍的汪洋大海上,我們看見一個漂流其上的瓶子,瓶中置放的,正是曾經在蘇伊士運河上造成堵塞的長賜號。下面兩排白色字體,大字寫的是「Message in a bottleneck」(大堵塞蘊含的信息);小字則是「Don't give up on globalisation」(不要對全球化絕望。 這期的主題,經濟學人著眼於對全球化的挑戰與質疑。過去一周的大部分時間裡,蘇伊士運河都被一艘重達20萬噸的巨型障礙物所阻塞。長賜號Ever Given不僅是這個世界上最大的集裝箱船之一,它還是對那些強烈譴責全球化錯置這的一個打臉象徵。 隨著不斷加劇的地緣政治緊張,各地政府紛紛從一心一意追求效率,轉變成為更重視疫情復甦和自我建設的新方向。Joe Biden下令要對美國的供應鏈進行100天的安全審查。由於新疆維吾爾族的人權問題爭論越吵越兇,中國發起了對H&M的數位抵制,歐盟和印度甚至限制了疫苗的出口。 這是貿易一個危險時刻,正如全球化當初催生開放一樣,保護主義和政府補貼,正從一個國家蔓延到另一個國家。全球化是歷經幾十年來工作才累積形成的,千萬不要讓它擱淺。這是本期經濟學人對世人的呼籲。 Powered by Firstory Hosting
