Hey yall, Alex here, let me catch you up! I came back from vacation expecting to cover Fable 5 after a week of using it. The first two days after we all first got access to a Mythos level model were super exciting! But then the news hit, US Government issued an order banning Anthropic from giving access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 to any foreign national, causing Anthropic to pull the models completely (even internally to their employees!). So, this wasn't the show I planned, but it turned into a great show about Open Source, as two models hit the top rankings and are both MIT licence, filling a Fable shaped hole in our hearts!GLM released 5.2 with folks really excited about it web building capabilities, and Kimi 2.7 Code released (and is available on CW Inference with crazy speeds!). We also saw the SpaceX IPO and Cursor $60B acquisition, Noam Shazeer joining Open and Midjourney, the image company, launching a new Ultrasound full body scanner to kill MRIs! Great show today with Dexter Horthy from HumanLayer, Chris Van Pelt and Adrian Swanberg from W&B announcing our new product HiveMind and Tanishq Abraham came back to help cover Midjourney's new Ultrasound scanner! Let's dive in!ThursdAI - Highest signal weekly AI news show is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The US Government bans Fable 5! (X, Anthropic statement)Here's a story in 3 parts: * Anthropic announces Mythos 5 preview - saying that this model is to dangerous to release, and only gives corporations access to it via project GlassWing. * Anthropic works hard on limitations and safery and releases Fable 5 (same weights as Mythos 5) built with guardrails so strong it refuses to do any cybersecurity tasks and switches back to Opus frequently* US Government receives a tip (reportedly from Amazon) that Fable 5 can be jailbroken to do cybersecurity tasks, and issues an order to Anthropic, citing national security concerns, banning them from giving access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 to any foreign national, causing Anthropic to pull the models completely (even internally to their employees!)This is the first time that we see the US Government directly intervene in the AI space and restrict access to frontier models. The most updated reporting on this I could find is that Anthropic and US Government officials are in the process of negotiating a safe release framework. Given that preventing all jailbreaks is impossible, I hope they will land on a solution that gives me Fable 5 back!This hit especially hard because last week we were all high on Fable. Not in the usual AI Twitter benchmark sense, in the actual “oh, this is a different level” sense. Me and my wife Fable maxxed throughout our flight to Vacation. Peter had saved outputs he kept going back to because other models suddenly felt like a step down. Dexter later said it was the closest he had felt in a while to the old “I need to keep prompting this thing overnight” feeling.Peter Gostev made a point that stuck with me. It's easy for us in the bubble to call this ridiculous, and on the technical merits it kind of is. But if you've spent weeks telling normal people “this thing is like a nuclear weapon, it'll take everyone's jobs,” and then someone asks “okay, can you make it safe?” and the answer is “no, I can't,” then you can see how an outsider lands on “well, maybe you shouldn't have it.” His takeaway, and I agree: we need to be way more careful with the imagery we use, because the nuclear-weapon framing came home to roost.The bigger questions are the scary ones. Wolfram framed it as a sovereign AI wake-up call, and he's right. For the first time we're seeing a real gap in intelligence available to people based on their nationality. Imagine building a company on a model that an outside government can switch off with one letter. Peter pointed out it's commercially bad for the US but completely disastrous for Europe, which has basically one frontier lab and a pile of startups that suddenly look very exposed. And there's the obvious irony Nisten enjoyed a little too much: the Europeans who spent years lecturing everyone about AI restrictions just got restrictions imposed on them.If anyone in the government is listening: we want Fable back, please.SpaceX IPOs and acquires Cursor for $60B (X)SpaceX went and did the largest IPO in the history of the world, around seventy-five billion dollars, which on a roughly two-trillion-dollar valuation made Elon the first trillionaire. (Did anything materially change for him? No. He can still fly his private plane. There's nothing left to buy.) Three days later, SpaceX exercised its option and bought Cursor (Anysphere) for sixty billion dollars in an all-stock deal, paid in shares minted at the IPO and now trading around $211. The four Cursor co-founders are all billionaires now. Largest software acquisition ever, and for SpaceX it's barely a blip on the radar.Why are we covering a stock-market story? Because it's not really a coding-tools story, it's an AI story. Cursor gave away its IDE to a lot of people while collecting their data, then quietly became a training company with Composer. SpaceX/xAI was always strong on compute and weak on code, and the missing ingredient was exactly that kind of data. Now Composer 2.5 is already showing up rebranded inside the xAI stack, and if you pay for X Premium you can use it. Composer 3, trained on the Memphis supercluster, is reportedly coming very soon and is going to hit hard.Nisten's take was the spicy one. For the data alone it's worth it, because xAI now has insight into how essentially every enterprise that touched Cursor operates. And he had zero sympathy for the companies that assumed “no data retention for training” meant the data was actually gone. We see in legal cases all the time that deleted data is still there. His view: it should have gone open source.Cursor has over a million paying customers, $2.6 billion in revenue, projected to hit $6 to $10 billion by end of 2026. But here's the thing that matters for us, the AI coding angle. Cursor was one of Anthropic's biggest revenue pipelines because Composer runs on Claude under the hood. That pipeline is now owned by xAI. They're already jointly training Grok 4.3, a 1.5 trillion parameter model, with Cursor's proprietary coding data injected directly into pre-training, not fine-tuning. Pre-training. That's a fundamentally different thing. Composer 2.5 was already Pareto dominant on coding benchmarks before the deal closed. Now pair that with Colossus, the biggest GPU cluster in the world.Will this be enough to put XAI (now SpaceXAI) at the frontline of the AI race? Will Grok 5 be Fable level code? We'll find out. Either way, this is the most consequential AI acquisition we've seen. Period.Open Source AI GLM-5.2 takes the open source crown (X, Blog, HF, Docs)Z.ai dropped GLM-5.2 and it's now the strongest open source model for coding and long-horizon work. The headline number: 74.4% on FrontierSWE, which measures whether an agent can finish full engineering projects over hours. That trails Opus 4.8 by about one point and beats GPT-5.5. On Terminal-Bench 2.1 it jumps to 81% from GLM-5.1's 63.5%, which is a big leap. It's a 753B parameter MoE, MIT licensed, no regional restrictions, weights on HuggingFace. The 1M context window is real and usable, backed by a clever IndexShare technique that cuts per-token FLOPs by about 2.9x at full context. People are reporting roughly 8x cost savings versus Opus 4.8 for comparable quality on real coding tasks.The most interesting thing on the show was that this was a confusing release, in a good way. Peter put it well: normally a catching-up lab ships cherry-picked benchmarks and then independent testing deflates them. Here it's the opposite, almost every benchmark holds up, even crossing above Fable at certain points, and yet when he actually used it over a couple of days he wasn't blown away. His verdict, and I think it's the calibration we needed: this is clearly an amazing model, and the fact that it's open and you can run it is incredible, but it is nowhere near Fable, and it would frankly be implausible if a 700-odd-billion-parameter model matched a model that's rumored to be in the trillions. Though, I think the comparison to Fable is really really unfair, and the comments online seem to suggest that 5.2 from GLM is a banger model. Just looking at this Harvey benchmark on legal tasks from Vals, a benchmark that there's 0 chance Z.ai folks have seen! GLM 5.2 scores #3 on this benchmark! Just after Fable and Opus, and per TeorTaxes on X, previous GLM 5.1 scored an absolute 0% on this one! Where it genuinely shines is design. On Design Arena, which is a head-to-head ELO vote, people have been picking GLM-5.2's website designs over Fable's by a real margin (around 1360 to 1350). LDJ's framing is the one I buy: specialization is becoming valuable again, and GLM is clearly leaning into front-end design and taste. Wolfram added the necessary asterisk, every benchmark only tells you the model did well on that specific test, so “as good as Fable” should always carry the “on this benchmark, with these tasks” disclaimer. Fair. I'd just say this: I don't want to compare everything to Fable, because we can't even use Fable anymore. Compared to the models we can actually touch, GLM-5.2 is a fantastic deal.Kimi K2.7 Code from Moonshot (X, HF, Announcement)The other big drop. Kimi is the darling of open source while we wait on DeepSeek, and Moonshot shipped K2.7 Code, a 1 trillion parameter MoE built specifically for coding, available through Kimi Code and the API, with a modified MIT license. The standout for me isn't a single benchmark, it's efficiency: roughly 30% fewer reasoning tokens than K2.6, which matters enormously when you're running long agentic loops that burn tokens like crazy. Benchmark jumps over K2.6 are real (+21.8% on their Code Bench v2, +11% on Program Bench), though Peter and Wolfram both noticed something odd, on a few benchmarks including their Agentic Arena, the older K2.6 actually edged out K2.7. The likely explanation is that K2.7 is narrowly trained for code with reduced reasoning, so it may trade away some general capability. Moonshot themselves recommend K2.6 for general non-coding tasks. Also worth knowing: it's not multimodal, no vision, which is a real gap for coding these days. And thinking-off isn't supported, it's reasoning-on by default.The model is available on our CW Inference, with the fastest token streaming in the industry, over 280 tok/s (Announcement, try it), with very decent pricing $0.94 - $0.19 - $4.00 (input - cached - output) per million tokens.

VOV1 - Liên minh châu Âu (EU) vừa bác bỏ đề xuất của Anh về việc thiết lập một thị trường chung cho hàng hóa, cho thấy những giới hạn chính trị và pháp lý hậu Brexit vẫn là trở ngại lớn trong nỗ lực tái định hình quan hệ giữa hai bên sau cuộc chia tay lịch sử cách đây gần 1 thập kỷ.Động thái diễn ra trong bối cảnh chính trường Anh đang xuất hiện trở lại những tranh luận gay gắt về "di sản" của Brexit, khi tăng trưởng kinh tế trì trệ và áp lực chính trị gia tăng buộc chính phủ của Thủ tướng Ke-ơ Xta-mơ (Keir Starmer) phải tìm cách cải thiện quan hệ với EU mà không tạo cảm giác đảo ngược kết quả cuộc trưng cầu ý dân năm 2016.Theo truyền thông Anh, đề xuất được ông Michael Ellam, nhà đàm phán hậu Brexit của Thủ tướng Keir Starmer đưa ra trong các cuộc tiếp xúc gần đây tại Brussels. Nếu được triển khai, cơ chế này có thể giúp giảm đáng kể các rào cản thương mại phát sinh hậu Brexit, đặc biệt trong các lĩnh vực kiểm định hàng hóa, tiêu chuẩn kỹ thuật và chuỗi cung ứng công nghiệp.Tuy nhiên, giới chức EU không chấp nhận ý tưởng này do lo ngại tạo ra một mô hình “tham gia chọn lọc” vào thị trường chung mà không đi kèm đầy đủ nghĩa vụ của một quốc gia thành viên. Đối với Brussels, việc bảo vệ tính toàn vẹn của thị trường chung vẫn là ưu tiên chiến lược cốt lõi kể từ sau Brexit.Theo một số báo cáo, EU cho rằng Anh chỉ có thể tiếp cận sâu hơn với thị trường chung nếu chấp nhận các khuôn khổ hợp tác toàn diện hơn, như tham gia liên minh thuế quan hoặc tiến tới liên kết kinh tế theo mô hình Khu vực Kinh tế châu Âu (EEA). Tuy nhiên, cả hai lựa chọn đều có thể kéo theo vấn đề tự do di chuyển lao động, một trong những “lằn ranh đỏ” chính trị quan trọng từng thúc đẩy Brexit và đến nay vẫn là chủ đề nhạy cảm trong chính trường Anh.Dù vậy, các quan chức Anh cho biết EU chưa hoàn toàn khép lại các cuộc thảo luận về đề xuất này. Vấn đề được cho là có thể tiếp tục được đưa ra tại hội nghị thượng đỉnh EU- Anh dự kiến diễn ra vào tháng 7 tới. Người phát ngôn Văn phòng Nội các Anh cho biết chính phủ đang đàm phán một “gói biện pháp đầy tham vọng” với EU trước thềm hội nghị, bao gồm thỏa thuận về vệ sinh và kiểm dịch thực vật nhằm tạo thuận lợi cho thương mại thực phẩm và đồ uống, cũng như hợp tác về cơ chế giao dịch khí thải.Trong khi đó, giới quan sát cho rằng bất kỳ bước tiến nào trong quan hệ Anh- EU cũng sẽ đòi hỏi Anh phải sẵn sàng điều chỉnh một số “lằn ranh đỏ” hậu Brexit. Nhà phân tích Rebecca Christie đánh giá:“‘Nếu Anh thực sự nghiêm túc muốn điều này, họ cần nói cho EU biết họ sẽ thay đổi ở ranh giới đỏ nào: về tự do đi lại, về sự tương thích của các quy định, hay tất cả những điều mà Vương quốc Anh vốn không muốn thực hiện. Vương quốc Anh phải nói rõ họ sẽ nhượng bộ ở đâu...Vương quốc Anh muốn có thể đi theo hướng khác biệt, họ coi đó là lợi ích chính của Brexit. Và tất cả những cuộc thảo luận về việc nối lại quan hệ này, chừng nào họ còn muốn duy trì khả năng đi theo con đường riêng của mình, họ sẽ vẫn bị mắc kẹt trên con đường đó.'”Động thái của Anh diễn ra trong bối cảnh tranh luận về Brexit bất ngờ nóng trở lại tại nước này. Gần 10 năm sau cuộc trưng cầu ý dân năm 2016, Brexit từng là chủ đề mà giới chính trị Anh cố tránh khơi lại nhằm hạn chế tái diễn chia rẽ xã hội. Tuy nhiên, tăng trưởng kinh tế trì trệ đang khiến những tranh luận về tương lai quan hệ với EU xuất hiện trở lại.Tuy nhiên, bài toán đối với ông Keir Starmer là cải thiện quan hệ với EU mà không tạo cảm giác đảo ngược Brexit, điều vẫn có thể gây chia rẽ sâu sắc trong xã hội Anh. Dù Brexit đã hoàn tất về mặt pháp lý, quan hệ Anh- EU vẫn đang trong quá trình tìm kiếm một trạng thái cân bằng mới giữa nhu cầu hợp tác kinh tế, an ninh và những giới hạn chính trị mà Brexit để lại./.Thu Hoài/VOV1Ảnh minh họa: Reuters

O acesso à água é um direito humano, proclamado pelas Nações Unidas desde 2010. No entanto, a água é também um bem económico, cuja propriedade e valor depende do uso que fazemos dela.Neste episódio, a economista Catarina Roseta-Palma e o humorista Manel Rosa exploram as diferenças entre a água como bem privado, bem comum e bem público puro. A propósito da gestão deste recurso, fala-se do que distingue o uso consumptivo do não consumptivo, e o que se entende por «tragédia dos comuns».A conversa navega também pelos setores principais do consumo da água, do doméstico ao agrícola e ao industrial – sabia que 70% da água captada, em Portugal e no mundo, é usada na agricultura?A dupla analisa ainda as características que conferem à água um valor particular, desde a definição do preço às características específicas deste mercado.Por fim, debatem-se questões atuais: que critérios devemos aplicar para otimizar a gestão da água? Devemos defender o interesse económico ou promover o equilíbrio dos ecossistemas?Um episódio [IN]Pertinente essencial, claro e transparente – como a água.

Trinachia - Prima parte C'è un limite che non si può attraversare. Lo dicono tutti: Tiresia nell'Ade, Circe a Eea, Odisseo stesso ai suoi compagni. “Non toccate le vacche del Sole.” Chiaro, semplice, assoluto. Ma i divieti assoluti hanno un problema: presuppongono circostanze normali. E quando le circostanze smettono di essere normali, anche il sacro comincia a sembrare… negoziabile.

Dall'oscurità dell'Ade alla luce del giorno. Odisseo e i suoi compagni tornano a Eea, ma sono cambiati. “Due volte mortali”, li chiama Circe. Hanno toccato la morte restando vivi. C'è una promessa da mantenere a un compagno caduto. C'è un addio da dare. E ci sono parole sussurrate nella penombra: nomi di pericoli che attendono oltre l'orizzonte. Questo episodio segna un punto di svolta. Un confine tra ciò che è stato e ciò che sarà. E nasconde qualcosa che cambierà il destino dell'eroe per sempre. .-.-. Vuoi saperne di più sull'episodio?

Un filo di fumo nel bosco. Una donna che canta al telaio. Lupi e leoni mansueti come cani. Sull'isola di Eea, niente è come sembra. E quando Odisseo varca la soglia di quella casa di pietra levigata, deve affrontare un pericolo come non ne ha mai conosciuti prima: qualcuno che può cambiarti, trasformarti, farti diventare altro.

After years of fiscal restraint and fragmented policy, the region is entering a new chapter one centered on pro-growth fiscal policy, energy security, and capital-market reform. For investors, this transformation signals the potential for renewed momentum in European equities and fixed income.In this episode of The Bid, host Oscar Pulido speaks with Helen Jewell, Chief Investment Officer for EMEA Fundamental Equities, and Roelof Salomons, Chief Investment Strategist for Northern Europe at the BlackRock Investment Institute, about how Europe's evolving macro and investing environment is creating new opportunities across sectors.They explore how fiscal flexibility is enabling investment in productivity and innovation, how energy transition and AI demand are reshaping infrastructure and power markets, and why European banks, defense companies, and energy-efficiency leaders have emerged as standouts. The conversation also looks at the valuation gap between Europe and the U.S., the implications of potential ECB rate cuts, and what reforms could drive a broader, more durable resurgence.Key Takeaways:· Europe's shift toward fiscal flexibility marks its first explicitly pro-growth stance in over a decade.· The intersection of energy transition and AI is driving infrastructure and power investment.· Banks, defense, and efficiency-focused industrials remain strong performers.· Europe still trades at a discount to the U.S., offering selective opportunity.· Integration of capital markets could unlock long-term competitiveness.Key moments in this episode:00:00 Introduction: Europe's Economic Challenges and Optimism01:10 Meet the Experts: Helen Jewell and Roelof Salomons02:17 Historical Context: Europe's Economic Journey03:51 Current Barriers and Progress in Europe05:40 Sector Focus: Defense, Banks, and Energy08:49 Fiscal Policy and Unified European Growth10:33 Energy and AI: The Long-Term Investment Landscape14:30 Valuation and Market Opportunities in Europe17:17 Conclusion: Path to a Broad Resurgence in Europe19:21 Closing Remarks and Future OutlookEurope investing; Europe macro; European equities; investing in Europe; capital-markets union; energy transition Europe; European fiscal policy; European banks; AI power demand; ECB rate cuts; BlackRock Investment Institute; European defense; valuation gap; competitiveness in EuropeSources: “What's needed for an investment renaissance in Europe?”, BlackRock Investment Institute, October 2025; NATO, August 2025; BlackRock Fundamental Equities analysis, September 2025; “Entering The Age of Electricity”, IEA Electricity Demand 2025;This content is for informational purposes only and is not an offer or a solicitation.

Private markets are transforming the investment landscape — reshaping portfolios, expanding access, and driving growth across asset classes from private equity to infrastructure and private credit. Once the domain of institutions, private markets are increasingly accessible to individual investors, offering new ways to pursue diversification and long-term opportunity.In this episode of The Bid, host Oscar Pulido is joined by Cameron Joyce, Head of Research Insights at Preqin, a part of BlackRock, to explore how private markets could reshape portfolios and investment opportunities by 2030. Cameron shares why the asset class has surged from $11 trillion pre-pandemic to an expected $32 trillion by the end of the decade — and what this evolution means for investors.Together they discuss how companies are staying private longer, why liquidity dynamics are shifting, and how new fund structures are widening accessibility for individuals and retirement savers alike. Cameron breaks down the three major growth engines powering the sector: private equity, infrastructure, and private credit — and explains how megaforces like AI and energy transition are creating new opportunities within each.Sources: “Private Markets in 2030” Preqin October 2025Key moments in this episode:00:00 Introduction to why Private Markets are having a moment now01:01 Understanding Private Markets - Why companies are staying private longer — and where the value creation is shifting.02:01 Growth and Trends in Private Markets - The forecasted $32 trillion in alternative AUM by 2030 and what it means for diversified portfolios.02:46 Impact on Investment Portfolios - The rise of individual access through open-ended fund structures.06:04 Where we are in the private equity cycle — and why lower fundraising periods often precede strong returns.09:56 Infrastructure Investment Opportunities - How infrastructure is becoming a key beneficiary of AI and reshoring trends.11:51 Why private credit and direct lending are gaining momentum as banks step back from traditional lending14:20 Artificial Intelligence in Private Markets - How AI is influencing value creation within privately backed companies.16:40 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsCheck out this Spotify playlist for more content on alternative investing: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4Fe8VwKyG5FPYekFFSksbI

Investing in any market can feel daunting — but it doesn't have to. In this episode of The Bid, host Oscar Pulido sits down with Jim Cramer, investor, author, and host of Mad Money, to explore what it really takes to build wealth and confidence over time.Cramer's latest book, How to Make Money in Any Market, continues his mission of empowering everyday investors to take control of their financial futures. From lessons learned running a hedge fund to insights from decades in media, Cramer's message is clear: you don't need to be a professional to succeed - you just need discipline, curiosity, and patience. From the birth of the “FAANG” concept to the story behind naming his dog Nvidia, Cramer shares personal stories that illuminate his broader philosophy — that investing is about persistence, not prediction. He and Oscar also discuss long-term trends in capital markets, the role of index investing, and why hope and participation remain central to a healthy investing mindset.This episode covers:· Why Cramer believes this is the right moment for a new playbook on investing.· The power of compounding and why saving regularly still works in today's capital markets.· How technology — from online research to tools like ChatGPT — has transformed access to information.· Why he encourages investors to “do the homework” or choose a diversified index approach if they can't.· His pyramid-style investing framework: build positions slowly, remove emotion, and let time work for you.· What he's learned from mistakes, like overconfidence or losing faith too soon.· How curiosity, observation, and understanding the “craft” can help investors find opportunities all around them.Key timestamps in this episode:00:00 Introduction to Investing with Jim Cramer00:50 Jim Cramer's Journey and New Book02:37 The Importance of Saving and Investing04:12 How to Analyze Stocks and Develop Market Strategies06:10 Jim's Investment Ethos and Practical Advice19:16 Personal Insights and Lightning Round21:57 Conclusion and Next Episode PreviewMad Money, Investing in any market, Stock market trends, Capital markets, Long-term investing, Financial education, Retail investors, Compounding, AI investingThis content is for informational purposes only and is not an offer or a solicitation.

今天呢 我們要挑選一個地緣政治 一個經濟發展。湊成一個政經情勢的兩則新聞解讀。講到地緣政治，大家對以色列和加薩之間的恩怨情仇肯定最看不懂，終於看見了曙光；另外，垂垂老矣的歐洲經濟真的沒救了嗎？錯，一個亮點正在冉冉升起。 一， 10月2日，以色列部隊又攔截了一支航向加薩走廊的人道援助船隊，再次引得全球多地紛紛舉行聲援巴勒斯坦人的示威，歐洲則出現抗議者 封路砸店的情況，加薩的衝突確實到了不偃旗息鼓不能的境地。 很多人問為什麼這次川普提出來的停火計劃可以期待，大家可以看見，除了各地抗議衝突，九月底，納坦雅胡在聯合國的演說　，不但稀落掌聲、各國代表陸續離席抗議，也進一步凸顯了以色列的外交孤立。事實上，10月2日，聯合國衛生機構世界衛生組織（WHO）表示，在以色列對加薩（Gaza）發動的戰爭中，近4萬2000人遭受了「改變一生的傷害」，其中1/4是兒童，傷勢包括截肢、頭部和脊髓損傷，確實讓人感傷。 加上這幾天，俄羅斯、中國相繼表態支持這個停火計劃，加薩確實知道了一個關鍵時刻，我們要怎麼解讀？ 二， 9月16日，歐洲央行前行長德拉吉在歐盟委員會會議上發表講話表示：歐洲經濟正面臨更嚴峻的挑戰。他強調去年9月提交的一份有關歐洲未來競爭力的戰略報告根本沒有落實，歐盟必須顯著提升創新能力和整體競爭力。 事實上，9月29日，歐盟發佈的一份環境報告也指出，氣候變化和環境惡化正在危及歐洲的經濟民生。歐洲環境署(EEA)發出警告：歐盟在許多領域都難以實現2030年目標。這實際上正在威脅歐洲人的未來繁榮、競爭力以及生活質量。 歐洲真的這麼慘？其實不然。9月27日，惠譽已將西班牙的長期外幣發行人違約評級從"A-"上調至"A"，展望穩定，理由是該國經濟表現優異且外部脆弱性降低。這很讓人驚喜，當越來越多的德國企業讓人失望，甚至裁員時，西班牙的經濟卻呈現了一片樂觀。去年，西班牙GDP增長了 3.2%，政府預計 2025 年還將增長 2.8%。歐盟委員會的預測也有 2.6%。我們要怎麼解讀？ Powered by Firstory Hosting

News and Updates: Microsoft backtracks in Europe — Windows 10's Extended Security Updates (ESU) will be free for an extra year in the European Economic Area (EEA), lasting until October 14, 2026. After pushback from Euroconsumers under the Digital Markets Act, Microsoft dropped its requirement to enable Windows Backup (and OneDrive) for access. Users in the EEA still need to log in with a Microsoft account every 60 days, but no cloud sync or payments are required. Outside Europe, ESU costs $30 or 1,000 Microsoft Rewards points, or requires enabling cloud sync. Windows 10 end-of-support remains October 14, 2025. Cracker Barrel logo controversy amplified by bots — Researchers at PeakMetrics found that nearly half of early outrage posts on X about Cracker Barrel's new logo were bot-generated. Around 44.5% of the first 52,000 posts — and nearly half of boycott calls — were flagged as bot-driven. Alt-tech platforms like Truth Social, Gettr, Gab, 4chan, and Rumble also spread the backlash. While 75% of posts came from real users, botnets amplified discontent into a viral outrage cycle. Social media now central to news diets — A new Pew study shows 53% of U.S. adults sometimes get news from social media. Facebook (38%) and YouTube (35%) lead, followed by Instagram (20%) and TikTok (20%). X (12%) and Reddit (9%) lag behind. Younger adults are far more likely to use TikTok, Reddit, and Instagram for news, while older adults still lean on TV. Only 2% of Americans say they get news from AI chatbots like ChatGPT or Google Gemini. Police stop a driverless Waymo — San Bruno, California police pulled over a Waymo robotaxi after it made an illegal U-turn. With no human driver, officers couldn't issue a citation. Current law only allows tickets for human drivers, though a new state law next year will let violations be reported to the DMV. Waymo says it is reviewing the “glitch.” The incident sparked viral debate over how to hold self-driving cars accountable.

Retirement confidence is under pressure. While younger generations are entering the workforce with optimism, the latest Read on Retirement report reveals troubling gaps between savers, plan sponsors, and retirees. Only 38% of employers believe their employees are on track, and confidence among retirees has dropped to historic lows.In this episode of The Bid, host Oscar Pulido speaks with Jamie Magyera, Head of BlackRock's U.S. Wealth Advisory and Retirement Business, about the findings from a decade of retirement data. Together, they explore what's driving the confidence gap and the bold actions needed to close it.Jamie highlights three calls to action for the retirement industry: expand access to professional management, deliver guaranteed income solutions, and broaden portfolios to include private markets. She also underscores the need for education and re-enrollment so savers fully benefit from these innovations. With retirement confidence at a crossroads, this episode offers both a reality check and a roadmap for plan sponsors, policymakers, and individuals alike.Sources: BlackRock's Read on Retirement Survey, September 2025Key insights include:· Why retirement savers' confidence often outpaces employers' assessment, and what this paradox reveals.· How target date funds and auto-enrollment are making retirement saving easier and more effective.· Why guaranteed income solutions are increasingly vital to ensure retirees don't outlive their savings.· The growing importance of private markets in delivering long-term returns and diversification alongside public markets.· Differences across generations and genders in retirement confidence — and how advice and professional management can help bridge gaps.· How market volatility, student debt, and competing financial priorities continue to challenge long-term savers.Timestamps:00:00 Retirement Confidence at a Crossroads01:59 Key Findings and Confidence Gaps in the latest Read on Retirement Report04:40 Calls to Action for Retirement Preparedness08:39 Generational Differences in Retirement Planning10:35 Gender Gaps in Retirement Confidence12:12 Challenges and Future of Retirement Planning16:50 Personal Reflections and Advice18:36 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsCheck out episode 225 on retirement planning where we discuss what new legislation could mean for your retirement account: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4mH8LyNQFsYSV0bxEH1NGU?si=ed429467800b4617Check out this playlist on investing for retirement here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/08Fx1iZaBwLclqpswIbjUq

ETFs are at the center of how investors are navigating today's rapidly changing markets. From active ETFs to thematic strategies around megaforces like artificial intelligence and infrastructure, innovation in exchange-traded funds is reshaping how portfolios are built.In this special Ask Me Anything edition of The Bid, host Oscar Pulido sits down with Jay Jacobs, U.S. Head of Equity ETFs at BlackRock, to answer questions submitted by listeners. Together, they explore the evolving ETF landscape and how investors can better position themselves in a volatile world. Jay also highlights the link between AI and infrastructure - noting that advances in artificial intelligence require massive investments in electricity, real estate, and supply chains. For investors, the message is clear: today's portfolios must capture both enduring themes and defensive strategies.Key insights include:The “be, beat, modify” equity framework for building portfolios: how core ETFs provide efficiency, active and thematic ETFs can aim to outperform, and outcome-oriented strategies offer risk management.Why factor investing (quality, value, momentum) demands a more tactical, systematic approach in 2025.The growing role of active ETFs as investors seek new sources of alpha in an era of lower expected returns.Why diversifying beyond U.S. equities and addressing concentration risk from mega-cap tech is increasingly important.How megaforces like AI, geopolitics, and infrastructure demand are reshaping equity markets and long-term investing themes.The role of gold and Bitcoin as portfolio diversifiers and monetary alternatives beyond traditional stocks and bonds.Timestamps00:00 Introduction to Investor Interests in 202500:20 Ask Me Anything: Meet Jay Jacobs, U.S. Head of Equity ETFs at BlackRock01:14 Understanding Equity Markets: Be, Beat, and Modify04:00 Factor Exposures and Economic Environments05:57 Geographical Diversification in Portfolios07:54 The Role of Thematic Investing09:58 Active ETFs vs. Mutual Funds13:40 Exploring Alternative Asset Classes: Gold and Bitcoin15:32 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

Close to half a million in Euro in Government funding has been granted for Clarecastle GAA. 400,000 euro has been announced for the development of the sports grounds at Ballaghafadda East, under the Immigrant Investor Programme, which is now closed, but applications submitted prior to the closure date have been honoured. The IIP was a scheme that allowed non-EEA nationals to gain residency in Ireland by making a significant approved investment, but it's been closed to new applications since February 2023. The funding allocation for Clarecastle GAA was signed off on by Fianna Fáil Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration, Jim O'Callaghan last evening. His party colleague, Meelick Fianna Fáil TD Cathal Crowe has been telling Clare FM's Fiona Cahill that the funding will make a huge difference to the club.

In this final episode of season 4, Richard Westcott is joined by Catherine Barnard (University of Cambridge) and Emmanuelle Auriol (Toulouse School of Economics) to explore the economic, legal, and social dimensions of migration.Drawing on insights from law and economics, the conversation explores how migration affects labour markets, legal protections, and social cohesion — from post-Brexit realities in Great Yarmouth, UK, to global questions of fairness and opportunity.

In 2015, Cooder went on tour with bluegrass legend Ricky Skaggs and Sharon White of the renowned country band The Whites. The tour featured a lot of gospel music and directly inspired Cooder's presumably final solo album, The Prodigal Son. It's a great and fitting farewell, and there is much to say about it, as well as the subsequent North American and European tours.This podcast frequently uses small snippets of musical recordings in podcast episodes for educational, review, and commentary purposes. In all cases, without exception, we believe this is protected by fair use in the U.S., fair dealing in the U.K. and EEA, and similar exceptions in the copyright laws of other nations.

Tercera y última entrega de la búsqueda de los guantes que usó en Estambul 05 el portero Jerzy Dudek. De la mano de Adrián Fontán, agente de Esto es Anfield, celebramos de esta manera los veinte años de la consecución de aquella Champions League con el 'Milagro de Estambul' y que tuvo al guardameta polaco como uno de los principales protagonistas ¿Logrará Adrián terminar con éxito esta 'misión imposible'? ¿El resto del equipo de EEA tendrá que ir a Estambul para repatriarlo? Todas las respuestas están en este episodio final.

Hard as it is to believe, 2013's Live At The Great American Music Hall was only Cooder's second official full-length live album. As with 1977's Show Time, he had no intention of putting the emphasis on a new album, but instead performed a great mix of his live classics. His band consisted almost entirely of old friends like Flaco Jiménez and Terry Evans, and family members like son Joachim, Juliette Commagere, and Robert Francis. In this episode, we introduce them – and a few others – and the albums they made with Cooder in the years that followed.This podcast frequently uses small snippets of musical recordings in podcast episodes for educational, review, and commentary purposes.

Para celebrar que se cumplen 20 años de la consecución de la quinta Copa de Europa para el Liverpool FC, volvemos a contar con nuestro compañero Adrián Fontán que esta vez tiene la misión de encontrar los guantes con los que el polaco Jerzy Dudek perpetró junto a sus compañeros y ante el Milan el conocido como 'Milagro de Estambul'. ¿Encontrará Adrián los guantes en la ciudad turca? ¿Qué aventuras vivirá durante su misión junto a otros miembros de EEA? Todas las respuestas están en este especial de Esto es Anfield,

Dr. Weijia Zhang is a renowned expert on interoperability, bridges, and is the Regional Head of China for the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance. So he knows a thing or two about what it takes to bring Web3 into production.Interoperability was supposed to be the great accelerator (ahead of privacy tech) for Web3 to really scale and connect apps and ecosystems for the greater good. But have we achieved this yet? Are bridges the answer, or can we do better?In this show, we discuss:- The ideal conditions for use of Blockchain technology- The current technologies and maturity of 'interoperability'- Enterprise use cases Dr. Zhang is most excited about- The role and importance of organisations like EEA and Linux Foundation in driving adoption- What more is needed to see widespread usage of Blockchain technology

A year after the deeply political Pull Up Some Dust And Sit Down, Cooder went one step further and made Election Special, his contribution to the 2012 presidential election in the United States. Clearly on Obama's side and genuinely angry about the corporate takeover of society, he made an album in the tradition of Woody Guthrie, Joe Hill and Pete Seeger: a collection of folk and rock songs for the modern depression. It is as relevant today as it was then, to say the least. This podcast frequently uses small snippets of musical recordings in podcast episodes for educational, review, and commentary purposes.
