認識「上帝小組」,這個強大的瀕危物種委員會剛削減了保護措施

(SeaPRwire) - 一個由高級官員組成的委員會因擁有決定瀕危物種命運的權力而被稱為「God Squad」,在其近50年的歷史中僅第三次批准了聯邦保護的豁免。這支由川普政府官員組成的小組在周二一致投票決定,豁免墨西哥灣的油氣鑽探活動不受旨在保護該水域瀕危野生動物的環境保護措施的約束。 國防部長Pete Hegseth是豁免申請者,他在內政部的會議上告訴瀕危物種委員會,這是「緊急國家安全事務」,並且是對「持續的《瀕危物種法》訴訟威脅要停止墨西哥灣油氣生產」的回應。 但批准豁免的決定遭到了環保團體和活動人士的譴責。抗議者聚集在內政部外,高呼口號並舉著標語牌,其中包括「Don’t Play God」。「部長以國家安全為由請求豁免的事實令人震驚,」全球最大的國際海洋保護倡導組織Oceana的美國副總裁Beth Lowell告訴TIME。「這項豁免的初衷本應是應對緊急情況,但我們目前並未看到這種情況……這項豁免只是在削減海洋野生動物所需的安全網。」此次會議標誌著所謂的God Squad自1992年以來首次召開,距今已超過三十年。以下是關於該委員會及其周二決定潛在影響的一些資訊。 什麼是God Squad?瀕危物種委員會成立於1978年,是五年前簽署成為法律的《瀕危物種法》修正案的一部分。 根據國會研究服務處(Congressional Research Service)的《瀕危物種法》入門手冊,該委員會的成立是為了建立一個制定潛在法律豁免的程序,若「擬議的機構行動預期將導致的危害無法避免,而提出行動的機構仍希望繼續進行該行動」,機構可申請豁免。 根據該手冊,委員會可以決定「儘管對物種有未來危害」仍批准豁免。通過豁免需要至少五票贊成。 在過去四十多年裡,God Squad此前僅對三項豁免申請做出了決定。1979年,它一致投票批准豁免懷俄明州普拉特河上的Grayrocks水壩和水庫的建設,該地是遷徙的美洲鶴(whooping cranes)的重要中途停留地,美洲鶴在《瀕危物種法》中被列為瀕危物種。同年,該小組否決了另一項水壩豁免申請——田納西河上的Tellico水壩,因該項目可能對瀕危的螺紋鱒(snail darter)造成危害而暫停。然而,國會後來介入,允許該水壩繼續建設,儘管小組做出了否決決定。1992年,God Squad最後一次召開會議時,投票贊成允許土地管理局(Bureau of Land Management)在俄勒岡州的一片森林中進行木材銷售,該森林是受威脅的北方斑點貓頭鷹(northern spotted owl)物種的棲息地。 另外三個案例在委員會被要求對豁免申請做出最終決定前就已解決。委員會成員有哪些?委員會由六名常任成員組成:內政部長、農業部長、陸軍部長、經濟顧問委員會(Council of Economic Advisors, CEA)主席、環境保護局(Environmental Protection Agency, EPA)局長以及國家海洋和大氣管理局(National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA)局長。委員會目前的常任成員包括:委員會現任主席、內政部長Doug Burgum;農業部長Brooke Rollins;陸軍部長Daniel P. Driscoll;代理CEA主席Pierre Yared;EPA局長Lee Zeldin;以及NOAA局長Neil Jacobs。委員會周二做出了什麼決定,墨西哥灣的野生動物面臨什麼風險? Burgum在周二的會議上表示,該小組將「對與……大陸架外油氣計畫相關的所有油氣勘探、開發和生產活動發布《瀕危物種法》要求的豁免」。這項豁免標誌著川普政府削弱環境保護的最新舉措。此前在11月,該政府提出了多項放寬《瀕危物種法》的規則。Hegseth在周二告訴委員會,伊朗最近封鎖霍爾木茲海峽(全球約五分之一的原油流經該海峽)的「敵對行動」再次凸顯了為何強大的國內石油生產是國家安全的必要條件。「作為一個國家,我們需要穩定、負擔得起的自產能源供應……這不僅僅是油價問題,更是我們為軍隊提供動力和保護國家的能力問題,」坐在Burgum旁邊的Hegseth說。「那項至關重要的能源供應正受到威脅。」 Lowell告訴TIME,墨西哥灣是20種受威脅或瀕危物種的家園,包括海龜、蝠鱝、鯊魚,以及值得注意的萊斯鯨(Rice’s whale)。國家海洋漁業局(National Marine Fisheries Service)的科學家確定,墨西哥灣僅剩約50頭這種鬚鯨,它們全年都生活在那裡。「我們真的不應該將利潤置於物種保護之上,尤其是在談到滅絕的時候,」Lowell說。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Western Digital (WDC) 股價反彈,Bernstein 視跌勢為買入良機

摘要 WDC 週一下跌 8.6%,受到與中東局勢緊張和能源價格擔憂相關的廣泛科技股拋售拖累。 Google 新推出的 TurboQuant AI 記憶體壓縮演算法令投資者感到不安,為記憶體類股增加了額外的拋售壓力。 Bernstein 將 WDC 的評級從「符合市場表現」(Market Perform)上調至「優於大盤」(Outperform),稱此次拋售是一個具吸引力的進場點。 儘管近期有所下跌,WDC 在過去 12 個月內仍上漲超過 522%,且近期有 17 位分析師上調了獲利預測。 財報預計於 4 月 29 日公布,預計每股盈餘(EPS)為 2.30 美元,高於去年同期的 1.36 美元。 (SeaPRwire) - Western Digital 過去幾天的表現起伏不定。週一股價下跌 8.6% 至 251.67 美元,主因是宏觀經濟擔憂以及 Google 的新 AI 產品引發了記憶體與儲存裝置投資者的不安。隨後在週二上午,股價已開始回升。 Western Digital Corporation, WDC 週一的拋售有兩個驅動因素。首先,與中東衝突和能源價格上漲相關的廣泛科技股疲軟,拖累了許多個股。其次,Alphabet 推出了 TurboQuant —— 一種 AI 驅動的記憶體壓縮演算法 —— 這在硬碟(HDD)和 NAND 記憶體領域引起了波動。 但一位分析師隨即對此反應表示反對。Bernstein 將 WDC 的評級從「符合市場表現」上調至「優於大盤」,認為 TurboQuant 的報告對硬碟需求應無影響,對 NAND 需求的影響也微乎其微。該機構稱此次拋售為具吸引力的買入機會。 InvestingPro 支持這一觀點,指出該股票目前被低估,且交易價格低於其公允價值。WDC 的 PEG 比率僅為 0.12 —— 這表明市場可能低估了其增長潛力。 S&P Global 最近也將 Western Digital 的信用評級上調至 BBB-,展望穩定,此前該公司將價值每股 545 美元的 580 萬股 Sandisk 股份轉換為債務。WDC 還贖回了所有將於 2026 年到期的 4.75% 高級票據(Senior Notes)。 在 Western Digital 的創新日(Innovation Day)活動後,Cantor Fitzgerald 將其目標價上調至 420 美元,並給予「增持」(Overweight)評級。Morgan Stanley 將目標價上調至 369 美元,指出 AI 儲存需求強勁。 技術面分析 從技術面來看,WDC 的交易價格比其 20 日簡單移動平均線(SMA)低 8.5%,顯示出短期壓力。但仍比其 100 日 SMA 高出 14%,維持了長期趨勢。 RSI 為 41.57,傾向於動能轉弱,但尚未進入超賣區域。MACD 為 3.04,仍低於其 7.04 的信號線,表明近期的上漲動能已降溫。關鍵支撐位在 238.00 美元,阻力位在 296.50 美元。 該股在過去 12 個月上漲了 522%,處於 28.83 美元至 319.62 美元的 52 週範圍內 —— 且更接近頂部而非底部。 未來展望 下一個重大催化劑是 4 月 29 日的財報。分析師預計 EPS 為 2.30 美元,高於去年同期的 1.36 美元;營收預計為 32.3 億美元,而去年同期為 22.9 億美元。這將代表兩方面均有強勁的年增長。 分析師共識為「買入」,平均目標價為 271.79 美元。Citigroup 最近將目標價上調至 335 美元,Wedbush 維持在 325 美元並給予「優於大盤」評級,而 Goldman Sachs 則持「中性」評級,目標價為 250 美元。 隨著 17 位分析師上調獲利預測,且 Bernstein 現在加入「優於大盤」陣營,圍繞 WDC 的近期敘事已迅速從恐慌轉向潛力。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

特朗普处于跌位,民主党仍有机会下滑 News

特朗普处于跌位,民主党仍有机会下滑

(SeaPRwire) - 本文是《時代》雜誌政治通訊《The D.C. Brief》的一部分。請點擊此處訂閱,將此類文章直接寄至您的收件匣。唐納·川普陷入麻煩了。一項又一項的民調顯示,他的支持率正跌至前所未有的低點。本週末,創紀錄的人群走上街頭,進行了美國250年歷史上規模最大的單日政治抗議活動。他所屬的國土安全部因共和黨主導的國會中的盟友無法制定出支出計劃而持續關閉。像白宮西廂宴會廳和提議中的邁阿密總統圖書館摩天大樓等建設項目遭到廣泛嘲笑。汽油價格似乎正朝著每加侖5美元邁進,消費者信心急遽下降,而美國與以色列聯合對伊朗的戰爭仍然極不受歡迎。哦,還有州議會的席位呢?在過去15個月中,民主黨人贏得了30個席位,而共和黨人則一席未得。然而,隨著十一月選舉的臨近,民主黨人仍可能步履蹣跚,無法達到其基本盤極高的期望。藍色浪潮看似蓄勢待發,但這並非因為該黨做了什麼。不,那些在2024年困擾民主黨的結構性問題依然存在。而他們去年決定擱置對賀錦麗敗給川普的內部檢討報告,仍然是民主黨持續不願正視其問題的象徵。「我們的政黨並不受歡迎,」前威斯康辛州副州長曼德拉·巴恩斯說道,他正尋求晉升為該州的最高職位。「人們不會僅僅因為某人是民主黨人就樂意投票給他。我們必須對自己誠實。」巴恩斯並非民主黨內唯一試圖在這片棘手地帶航行的人。選民不喜歡當權者,但對替代方案也提不起勁。「我認為你沒有過度解讀,」巴恩斯向我談及全國情緒時說。「感覺不可能。」就像他黨內目前許多人一樣,巴恩斯看到選民更多是被他們反對的事物所驅動,而非他們支持的事物。「關鍵在於誰會站出來成為一名鬥士。人們現在感到無能為力。他們覺得自己的聲音無關緊要。」正是這種緊張關係讓民主黨的戰略家們如坐針氈:掌控眾議院、參議院和白宮的共和黨在民調中一敗塗地,但僅僅作為「非共和黨」並不足以擊敗他們。在黨派歸屬方面,民調發現「以上皆非」是最大的政黨認同。實際情況比這更糟。即使川普的民調支持率暴跌,民主黨的人數池在總人口中的比例仍在縮小。在佛羅里達州,選民是按黨派登記的,現在有550萬共和黨人和400萬民主黨人,這與2016年時的460萬共和黨人和490萬民主黨人相比,發生了劇烈搖擺——而川普兩次都拿下了該州。儘管Nate Silver的民調資料庫顯示,一位普通的民主黨候選人比共和黨對手表現好約5個百分點,但這離穩操勝券還很遠——尤其是考慮到如今眾議院選區劃分不公的程度有多嚴重。畢竟,被視為黃金標準的Cook Political Report統計,今年只有17場眾議院選舉是真正的搖擺席位。為了理解這5個百分點的順風優勢,2018年此時的數字接近7個百分點,當時民主黨淨增了41個眾議院席位。四年前的2014年,民主黨領先略多於1個百分點,但最終失去了9個眾議院席位。而在2010年,民主黨失去了63個眾議院席位,當時他們僅落後2個百分點。民主黨只需淨增3個席位即可掌控眾議院,但在參議院則需要4個席位。民主黨能否完全翻轉國會,可能取決於他們在緬因州、密西根州和愛荷華州等州最終確定的候選人。換個說法:民主黨仍然處於有利位置,有望迎來一個不錯的選舉年,但回顧起來,可能會被視為讓一場真正的大勝從指縫中溜走。數百萬人走上街頭顯示了力量,但並不保證任何結果,尤其是當環境權、生育自由、良好治理、外交政策、LGBTQ權利和經濟不安全等一系列棘手問題,全都混雜在標語的海洋中時。真正的問題在於,自巴拉克·歐巴馬時代以來,該黨並未真正擁有一個明確的認同。十多年來,沒有任何東西真正將民主黨的認同凝聚在一起,因為企業自由派和街頭進步派之間的橋樑已被證明無法維持。意識形態、世代和地域間的緊張關係變得如此尖銳,以至於Axios公開了許多民主黨人私下談論超過一年關於他們下一任總統候選人的看法:必須是「一個異性戀、白人、基督教男性」。然而,更迫在眉睫的是今年的期中選舉,歷史上這類選舉通常會懲罰執掌白宮的政黨。這就是為什麼巴恩斯——他正陷入一場激烈的民主黨初選,以爭奪威斯康辛州開放的州長職位——也看到了一線希望,即共和黨的領跑者是眾議員湯姆·蒂凡尼,他將不得不憑藉自己的紀錄參選。「以國會議員的身份競選公職,考慮到人們正在經歷的一切,這很難推銷。」儘管如此,一個政黨若沒有資金,就無法在全國各地的選舉中橫掃千軍。民主黨在競爭激烈選區的籌款優勢是真實的,但現任者有其特權——主要是能夠迅速分配好處。共和黨的競選生態系統去年的籌款額超過了其民主黨同行。而川普仍然是一股發自內心的政治力量,能夠激勵數百萬人。隨著選舉季節悄然臨近,民主黨面臨的問題是:川普的引力會在今年秋天將選民拉回他的陣營,還是會將他們推入民主黨等待的懷抱。後者正是喬·拜登在2020年贏得提名的方式,他利用川普主義的威脅來團結他的政黨。今年的數字指向對民主黨有利的環境,他們散發出濃厚的2006年氛圍,當時選民翻轉了31個眾議院席位,並讓南希·裴洛西成為首位女性議長。但將他們的處境與2022年的共和黨相比也值得參考,當時共和黨在一般性民調中領先略低於4個百分點;那年的紅色浪潮結果只是海市蜃樓——共和黨僅勉強增加9個眾議院席位,並在參議院失去一席。理解華盛頓的重要事務。請訂閱《The D.C.

(SeaPRwire) - 民主黨正指控FBI試圖「抹黑」加州眾議員Eric Swalwell,他是該州州長選舉中的主要民主黨候選人之一,也是總統Donald Trump的直言不諱的批評者。民主黨的憤怒源於《華盛頓郵報》(Washington Post) 週六 的報導,該報導指出FBI局長Kash Patel正尋求公開一份十年前的調查檔案,內容涉及Swalwell過去與一名被懷疑是中國情報人員的女性的關聯,儘管這位眾議員並未被指控有任何不當行為。《Post》 首先報導,Swalwell的律師於週一向Patel發出停止並終止函,要求FBI不要發布該檔案。Swalwell的幾位民主黨同僚譴責了FBI的行為。「FBI正試圖抹黑一位在任的美國眾議員、州長候選人以及總統的直言反對者,」馬里蘭州眾議員、眾議院司法委員會排名成員Jamie Raskin在週六的聲明中表示。「這和執法有什麼關係?這明顯是將FBI武器化,用於黨派政治目的。」以下是關於此事件需要了解的內容。FBI據報試圖發布的是什麼檔案?《Post 》報導,該檔案與Swalwell過去與Christine Fang(又稱「Fang Fang」)的關聯有關,據稱Fang試圖與加州政客建立關係,包括Swalwell在內。Swalwell表示,在2015年左右聯邦特工向他表達對Fang Fang的擔憂後,他切斷了與她的聯繫。Swalwell說他協助了對該事件進行調查的調查人員。他並未被指控有不當行為,並且在2023年,眾議院道德委員會結束了對Swalwell涉嫌與Fang有關聯的調查,決定不採取任何行動。Swalwell對FBI據報推動發布檔案的回應是什麼?Swalwell在社交媒體上分享了一份針對《Post》 報導的聲明。「透過出色的報導,我們現在知道白宮為了針對政治對手會採取何等離譜的手段,」他在週六表示。「Trump如此拼命試圖阻止我的原因,並不是因為我正在競選加州州長,而是因為我現在是熱門人選。但Donald Trump和Kash Patel沒有權利挑選下一任州長,加州人民才有。」《Post 》報導,在Swalwell的律師於週一向Patel發出的停止並終止函中,他們要求FBI在三天內同意不宣傳這些文件。他的律師在信中表示,FBI任何進一步發布檔案的行動都可能導致他們對該機構採取法律行動。他的律師主張,發布這些檔案將違反多項法律,包括1974年聯邦隱私法(Privacy Act of 1974),該法禁止在未經個人書面同意的情況下發布與個人有關的機構記錄,除非在某些特定情況下。「這位眾議員在該事件中從未被指控有不當行為,你試圖發布檔案的行為是一種透明的抹黑他並破壞他加州州長競選活動的企圖,」他的律師寫道。「你的行為可能會使你、FBI的其他人以及FBI本身面臨重大的法律責任。」FBI對這份報導的回應是什麼?在《Post》 關於Patel據報推動發布檔案的初始報導中,FBI發言人否認有任何不當動機,並表示「這篇報導中的主張是不正確的。」「這個FBI是歷史上最透明的,我們為多種不同的原因準備文件,包括向不同的機構和部門發布,以進一步審查可能在前幾屆政府任內啟動的調查,」發言人告訴《Post》。其他民主黨人如何回應?幾位民主黨人譴責了FBI據報推動發布檔案的行為。Raskin指控Patel「浪費FBI的資源」以及「命令特工花費數小時準備一份政治抹黑檔案,用於個人報復。」「對政府資訊的濫用已經失控,」Raskin繼續表示。「這些利用公職和司法部(DOJ)檔案攻擊政治對手的行為,是為了服務Donald Trump的絕望企圖,以轉移人們對本屆政府災難性政策失敗的注意力。」加州參議員Adam Schiff將此情況描述為「對FBI的濫用」,認為「這既危險又違法。」「一次又一次,總統和他的任命者將司法部武器化,對付那些敢於對抗Trump的人,」Schiff在週六於X平台的貼文中表示。「毫無疑問,Trump和Kash Patel會不擇手段地試圖告訴加州人誰應該成為他們的下一任州長。但加州人很堅強,不會被嚇倒。我們自己做決定,不會被任何國王或wannabe獨裁者的絕望行為所動搖。」Swalwell是10位知名候選人之一,其中8位是民主黨人,2位是共和黨人,他們正在參加加州競爭激烈的州長選舉。初選將於6月2日舉行。在初選中獲得最多選票的兩位候選人——不論其黨派——將進入11月的大選。最近的民調引發了民主黨人的擔憂,即競選中的大量民主黨候選人可能會分散選票,讓兩位共和黨人Steve Hilton和Chad Bianco得以進入大選,儘管民主黨在該州登記選民中擁有顯著優勢。本月發布的多項民調顯示,Swalwell是競選中的頂尖民主黨候選人之一,並且領先至少一位共和黨人,這表明他可能即將進入11月的投票名單。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

BYD (BYD) 股價上漲 7% 擴大出口目標至 150 萬輛 Business

BYD (BYD) 股價上漲 7% 擴大出口目標至 150 萬輛

重點摘要; BYD 將出口目標提高至 150 萬輛,提振了投資者對其全球擴張策略的樂觀情緒。 中國需求疲軟和定價壓力促使 BYD 更加依賴海外市場。 在巴西、匈牙利和亞洲擴大海外生產,旨在降低關稅並增強競爭力。 儘管利潤下降,BYD 的國際增長策略支撐了股價上漲和對長期前景的信心。 (SeaPRwire) - 有報導稱,這家中國電動汽車巨頭已將其 2026 年汽車出口目標提高至 150 萬輛,這標誌著其戰略重心更明顯地轉向國際市場,受此影響,BYD 股價小幅上漲。這一更新預測值較公司此前 130 萬輛的目標有所增加,反映出隨著國內競爭加劇,公司對海外需求的依賴進一步增強。 據知情人士透露,在最近的分析師簡報會上,BYD 越來越多地將出口定位為未來汽車業務收益的核心驅動力。股價的反應凸顯了投資者的樂觀情緒,即全球擴張可能抵消中國市場盈利能力下降的壓力。 中國市場壓力加劇 BYD 修訂出口前景之前不久,剛公佈了低於預期的第四季度業績,並錄得了四年來首次年度利潤下降。儘管業績受挫,但該公司最近超越了 Tesla,成為全球銷量最高的電動汽車製造商,這凸顯了即使面臨利潤率挑戰,其規模依然龐大。 BYD Company Limited, BYDDY 然而,分析師指出,中國電動汽車市場已變得高度競爭,激進的降價和利潤率收縮。一些估計顯示,BYD 的國內利潤率可能承受巨大壓力,單車收益遠低於海外銷售。 國內與國際盈利能力之間這種日益擴大的差距,正越來越多地塑造著 BYD 的全球戰略。 全球製造版圖擴大 為了支持其出口雄心,BYD 正在加快海外生產投資。該公司正在巴西、匈牙利和東南亞部分地區等關鍵地區擴大製造能力。這些舉措旨在降低關稅風險,並加強主要電動汽車市場的當地供應鏈。 據報導,該公司還準備從 2027 年開始在中國以外推出超快充電基礎設施,此舉可能加強其生態系統策略,並提高與西方電動汽車製造商競爭的能力。 據報導,BYD 將 2026 年海外銷售目標提高至 150 萬輛 BYD 管理層對在 2026 年實現 150 萬輛汽車出口表示有信心。 https://t.co/7wRdFGOQSI — CnEVPost (@CnEVPost) 2026年3月30日 通過生產本地化,BYD 旨在緩解日益上升的貿易壁壘,特別是在歐洲,那裡的監管壓力在近年來有所加劇。 關稅和利潤率重塑戰略 貿易政策正成為 BYD 國際擴張的一個關鍵因素。歐盟對中國電動汽車實施了臨時反補貼關稅,其中包括對 BYD 車輛徵收 17.4% 的關稅,這是在現有進口稅基礎上增加的。這些措施正推動製造商建立本地生產設施,而不是依賴從中國出口。 與此同時,分析師指出,BYD 的國際利潤率仍然顯著高於其國內業務。雖然中國銷售的單車回報可能相對較低,但海外銷售可以帶來更高的盈利能力,使得儘管監管環境複雜,全球擴張在財務上仍然具有吸引力。 Citigroup 的估計甚至表明,BYD 在中國的業務在近期可能面臨接近零利潤的局面,這進一步加強了向出口轉變的趨勢。 投資者戰略展望 國內增長放緩與海外利潤率較強的結合,使得 BYD 的出口策略成為其長期估值敘事的核心。投資者現在正密切關注該公司能否在應對關稅、本地生產成本和地緣政治風險的同時,維持其快速的國際擴張。 儘管近期盈利面臨壓力,但市場似乎將提高出口目標視為韌性和適應能力的信號。股價的小幅上漲反映了謹慎的樂觀情緒,即 BYD 的全球推進可能會穩定盈利並支持未來增長。 隨著 BYD 繼續擴大其國際業務規模,其平衡各地區盈利能力的能力將繼續成為電動汽車行業情緒的關鍵驅動因素。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

赫格塞思表示,美國將「以炸彈談判」,直到達成伊朗停火協議 News

赫格塞思表示,美國將「以炸彈談判」,直到達成伊朗停火協議

(SeaPRwire) - 美國國防部長皮特·黑格塞斯週二表示,美國對伊朗的轟炸將持續進行,直到伊朗同意達成一項協議,以終止其彈道導彈和核武器計畫。伊朗官員否認正在與美國進行談判,但黑格塞斯表示,這些談判「非常真實」。在五角大廈與記者舉行的簡報會上,黑格塞斯聲稱,伊朗的國防工業基礎「幾乎完全被摧毀」,美軍戰機能夠在伊朗領空自由飛行,並在移動導彈和無人機發射裝置暴露時將其炸毀。「我們不想在軍事上做得比必要的更多,但我說在此期間我們將用炸彈談判時,並非隨口說說。我們的工作是確保我們迫使伊朗意識到,這個新政權,這個當局的政權,如果達成協議,將會處於更好的境地,」黑格塞斯發誓道。黑格塞斯表示,他週末訪問了美國在中東的軍事基地,會見了美軍部隊。返回後,他於週一會見了總統唐納·川普指派負責與伊朗領導層談話的團隊——中東特使史蒂夫·威特科夫、川普的女婿賈里德·庫什納和國務卿馬可·魯比奧。黑格塞斯補充說,在伊朗附近部署數千名美國海軍陸戰隊員和第82空降師部隊,也是為了在談判桌上向伊朗施加壓力。當被問及為何向中東派遣額外的作戰部隊時,他說,「重點在於不可預測性。」「我們的對手現在認為我們有15種方法可以派地面部隊攻擊他們,猜猜怎麼著,確實有,」他說。「如果我們需要,我們可以代表美國總統和本部門執行這些選項,或者我們根本不使用它們——也許談判會奏效。」美國參謀長聯席會議主席丹·凱恩週二在簡報會上站在黑格塞斯身邊表示,自2月28日美國和以色列開始在伊朗境內進行轟炸以來,美國已經打擊了11,000個目標。最近幾天,美軍戰機加快了摧毀伊朗境內暴露出來的移動式火箭和無人機發射裝置的速度。凱恩說,部署在該地區的數千名額外精銳作戰部隊可以有多種用途。他補充說,其中之一是,僅僅是他們的存在就是為了向伊朗談判代表施加壓力,以達成協議。「這些部隊提供的軍事選項範圍很廣,其中至少包括伊朗應該注意到他們在那裡,並且他們是一個施壓點,所以他們應該在外交層面——不是作為主席我的工作,而是在外交層面——仔細考慮擺在他們面前的東西,」他說。伊朗最近幾週通過威脅霍爾木茲海峽的航運航線,擾亂了石油市場。在與伊朗官員進行了一些談判後,最近幾天已有少量貨物被允許安全通過。但這種僵局導致汽油價格飆升。川普週二早上在 Truth Social 上發文表示,盟友應該做得更多來保護航運免受伊朗侵害,並認為這不僅僅是美國的責任。他告訴那些拒絕積極參與伊朗戰爭的國家,如果擔心石油短缺,應該直接去霍爾木茲海峽「拿」石油。「你們必須開始學會如何為自己而戰。美國將不會再在那裡幫助你們,就像你們當初沒有在那裡幫助我們一樣,」川普警告說。黑格塞斯認同這一信息,並表示川普準備與伊朗達成停火協議。「如果伊朗是明智的,他們會達成協議,」黑格塞斯說。「川普總統會達成協議。他願意。」本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

做夢能幫助你睡得更深嗎? News

做夢能幫助你睡得更深嗎?

(SeaPRwire) - 在入睡與清醒之間的模糊地帶,大腦會經歷無數種狀態。透過腦電圖(EEG,即大腦電活動的讀數),科學家和醫生可以區分每個階段。但每個階段具體發揮什麼作用,目前尚不完全清楚。睡眠能緩解疲勞,讓大腦處理當天的事件,並似乎有助於記憶和學習。但哪個階段負責哪些功能呢?回答這個問題或許能揭示如何獲得更高品質的睡眠。為了深入瞭解,科學家進行「連續喚醒」實驗,這是一種實驗室研究,研究人員會在夜間反覆喚醒睡著的人,並要求他們填寫問卷。(如果這聽起來像你的個人惡夢,請感謝所有為科學奉獻的人。)發表在《PLOS Biology》期刊上的一項新研究,聚焦於非快速眼動睡眠第二階段(簡稱NREM2)期間的喚醒,這個階段通常占我們睡眠時間的一半左右。研究人員發現了一個有趣的現象:當人們從沉浸式夢境中被喚醒時(其腦電圖看起來與清醒狀態非常相似),他們仍表示自己睡得很沉。研究人員推測,這表明此睡眠階段的生動夢境可能有助於產生深度睡眠的感覺。做夢的目的是什麼?做夢是如此常見的經歷,以至于科學家至今仍不明白我們為何會做夢,這似乎有點令人驚訝。研究夢境的一種方法是嘗試改變夢境——例如向睡著的人播放特定聲音,或喚醒他們後讓他們再次入睡,然後觀察這些變化是否會影響他們日後的感受。「我們試圖調節大腦活動,並嘗試影響受試者主觀上的感受,包括睡眠深度和他們在睡眠期間的體驗,」義大利IMT School for Advanced Studies Lucca教授、這篇新論文的作者Giulio Bernardi博士表示。在這項新研究中,他和同事研究了NREM2睡眠,這個階段包含多種狀態,包括沉浸式夢境、簡單夢境,甚至完全沒有夢境。研究團隊喚醒了44名處於NREM2階段的睡眠者,並讓他們報告自己的思緒,包括是否做過夢。有時他們確實做過夢,但不記得內容——這就是所謂的「空白夢境」。如果他們記得夢境,研究人員會要求他們評估夢境的生動度和沉浸感等特徵,同時也會詢問他們覺得自己睡得有多沉。主觀上最深的睡眠主要發生在腦電圖顯示人們處於深度無意識狀態、代表意識的電活動模式消失時。但當人們報告有沉浸式夢境時,儘管他們的腦電圖模式看起來更接近清醒狀態,他們仍覺得自己睡得很沉。Bernardi表示:「即使大腦變得更活躍、更接近清醒狀態,如果我們正在做夢,仍然會感覺自己睡得很沉。」這背後的意義仍是個謎做夢是否能決定一夜睡眠是不安穩還是令人滿意?這項研究並未設計來回答這個問題,因為它沒有探討早晨的休息狀態。考慮到受試者被喚醒的頻率,可能很難區分做夢和多次喚醒對睡眠者感受的影響。但這項研究確實表明,夢境與睡眠深度之間的關聯值得進一步研究。英國劍橋大學(University of Cambridge)研究夢境的Karen Konkoly並未參與這項研究,但她自己曾參加過類似的研究。她在電子郵件中寫道:「觀察自己夜間不同時刻的思緒,並意識到我其實經常不覺得自己睡得很沉,這很有趣。因此對我來說,判斷自己確實睡得很沉的最好方法,就是從沉浸式夢境中被喚醒的時候。我知道自己在睡覺,因為我正在做夢。這是我解釋這一發現的最佳直覺:很難判斷一個人睡得有多沉,而沉浸式夢境是回答這個問題的一種明確方式。」Bernardi認為背後可能還有更多原因。他在電子郵件中寫道:「雖然做夢確實表明處於睡眠狀態,但本身並不一定意味著『深度』睡眠。我們研究中特別值得注意的是,受試者有時即使無法回憶起任何具體的夢境內容,僅有處於豐富或沉浸式狀態的整體印象,仍會報告自己睡得很沉。」他推測,這種深度感可能來自與外界的脫節感。這種感覺可能來自完全無意識的狀態,或者來自一個如此沉浸式的夢境,以至于外部現實無法滲透進來。這項研究提醒我們,睡眠不僅僅是簡單的無意識狀態。感知的力量很強大:例如,許多自稱失眠的人實際上夜間大部分時間都在睡覺。這些案例中問題似乎在於,他們對自己是否睡著的感知出現了偏差。不過,有時夢境會感覺太真實。經歷「史詩級做夢」(epic dreaming)現象的人表示,他們整夜都在做夢,經常重複執行一些瑣碎到令人麻木的任務。Bernardi表示:「最終,當他們早上醒來時,會非常疲勞,就像整夜工作一樣。因此,夢境的沉浸感可能需要保持在適當的範圍內,否則會對我們的睡眠產生負面影響。」本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Cornerstone Technologies ’s JV Spark EV Join Hands with China Southern Power Grid to Open Up New Chapter for Electric Vehicles Charging in Southeast Asia

EQS via SeaPRwire.com / 31/03/2026 / 23:36 UTC+8 Cornerstone Technologies ’s JV Spark EV Join Hands with China Southern Power Grid to Open Up New Chapter for Electric Vehicles Charging in Southeast Asia Since late February 2026, escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have disrupted logistics services through the Strait of Hormuz, severely impacting the global crude oil supply chain, with international oil prices remained volatile at relatively high levels. On March 9, WTI crude briefly touched USD119.48 per barrel, while Brent approached USD120 per barrel—marking the highest levels in nearly four years. Thailand’s retail fuel prices also saw a 20% increase last week. Rising fuel costs not only directly increase the usage cost for traditional ICE vehicles, but also accelerate the global transition toward electric vehicles. According to data from Mordor Intelligence, the ASEAN electric vehicle market is projected to reach USD5.99 billion in 2026, surpassing USD 23.5 billion by 2031 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) exceeding 30%. Thailand, leveraging its robust manufacturing clusters and government incentive policies, saw domestic EV sales grow by 40% in 2025, capturing a remarkable 39% market share within the regional market. The upward momentum also continued in 2026, with EV sales reaching 38,000 units in the first two months alone. At this pace, annual sales could exceed 200,000 units in 2026, underscoring Thailand’s steadily rising EV penetration rate, which in turn, further drive the demand for corresponding charging infrastructure. Seeing the vast market opportunities in ASEAN, Cornerstone Technologies Holdings Limited’s joint venture, Spark EV Company Limited (“Spark EV”) has entered into a memorandum of understanding with China Southern Power Grid Lancang-Mekong International Co., Ltd (“CSG-LMI”) on March 25. The two parties will jointly advance Spark EV’s expansion in the Thailand market, aiming to install more than 1,000 charging stations nationwide to strengthen its competitive edge and enhance network efficiency. As a leading charging service provider, Cornerstone Technologies has established a comprehensive business presence in Hong Kong, covering private residential charging subscription services (Cornerstone HOME) and public charging networks (Cornerstone GO). The former provides monthly subscription-based private charging services for residential buildings, with more than 1,200 users currently enrolled; the latter operates Hong Kong’s largest and most utilized public EV charging network, already in operation across 120 car parks, totaling over 1,900 charging points with more than 87,000 members. Beyond the Hong Kong market, Cornerstone Technologies is also actively expanding its overseas business through Spark EV, with overseas revenue projected to increase by nearly 70% by 2025. Spark EV has already gained a significant first-mover advantage in Thailand, having partnered with Bangchak Corporation Public Company Limited ("Bangchak") to operate over 240 charging stations with more than 175,000 members. Bangchak is one of Thailand's two largest energy companies, with 2,214 service stations across the country. Leveraging its nationwide energy retail network and strategic positioning in promoting green energy transformation, Bangchak provides strong support for Spark EV's charging business in Thailand. Meanwhile, CSG-LMI is a subsidiary of China Southern Power Grid Co., Ltd. (“CSG”) As one of China's two largest power grid enterprises, CSG has an annual revenue exceeding RMB800 billion and operates over 100,000 charging stations nationwide. This partnership between Cornerstone Technologies and CSG-LMI is expected to further accelerate its business development in Thailand. CSG-LMI brings unparalleled technical expertise in grid stability and smart grid management. The partnership is expected to provide Spark EV with enhanced technical efficiency in connecting ultra-fast chargers to the local power grid, along with superior operational reliability. Driven by the introduction of the EV 3.5 incentive scheme and the “30@30” target (30% of domestic vehicle production to be zero-emission by 2030), Thailand is expected to become the fastest-growing EV market in Southeast Asia, generating substantial demand for charging infrastructure. Hencd, Spark EV will be well-positioned to further consolidate its market leadership by leveraging a more efficient network and greater cost-effectiveness, thereby attracting more users and increasing overall network utilization. According to the announcement, following their success in Thailand, the two parties also intend to expand cooperation to other countries within the Lancang-Mekong sub-region, particularly those with higher EV penetration rates and strong growth potential in charging infrastructure. These include Malaysia, Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos PDR, Myanmar, and Vietnam. As a result, the synergies between the two parties are expected to continue to unfold, injecting new momentum into the electric vehicle industry across Southeast Asia. With the steadily expanding scale of its charging business, Cornerstone Technologies is well-positioned to generate stable revenue and recurring cash flow from charging fees. Given the relatively high gross profit margin of the charging business, the Company’s revenue mix is expected to improve significantly, driving overall profitability and breakeven performance. This strategic partnership not only supports the wider adoption of EVs in the region but also provides Cornerstone Technologies with a solid foundation to enhance profitability and establish long-term growth drivers. Looking ahead, the collaboration is expected to become an important milestone in advancing regional energy transition and green mobility development, opening up a new chapter for the EV landscape in Southeast Asia. 31/03/2026 Dissemination of a Financial Press Release, transmitted by EQS News.The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.Media archive at www.todayir.com

賓夕法尼亞州費城, 2026年3月31日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - Datavault AI Inc.(“Datavault AI”或“公司”)(NASDAQ: DVLT),作為數據變現、身份認證、數字互動以及現實世界資產(RWA)代幣化技術領域的領先企業,與Coppercore Inc.(“Coppercore”)今日宣佈,雙方已完成一項具有約束力協議的簽署與交割,旨在對重要銅資源進行數字化和代幣化。該交易使Datavault AI能夠部署其專利的IDE®、DataScore®及DataValue®區塊鏈代幣化平台,創建Coppercoin™數字代幣,以代表對應地下銅資源的按比例所有權權益。該項目初期計劃鑄造不少於1億美元的數字銅代幣(Digital Copper Tokens)。Coppercoin™代幣的結構設計為:每枚代幣對應五磅高品位銅資源,其定價直接與COMEX銅基準價格(按每磅計)掛鈎。該機制為投資者提供了可分割、透明且具流動性的數字化所有權,同時使投資回報與實物銅市場動態及未來產量增長潛力保持一致。首期1億美元項目預計將在本年度第二季度末前啟動,從而實現銅資產代幣化的全球全天候投資可及性。Coppercoin™引入了一種全新的數字資產類別,可帶來市場效率與機遇的提升,包括流程升級以及未來銅工業產品(如銅精礦、沉澱銅及精煉銅(陰極銅))的生產。銅是推動全球能源轉型、人工智能基礎設施建設、電氣化、可再生能源系統以及脫碳進程的基礎金屬。全球銅需求預計將大幅增長——到2035年增長24%(Wood Mackenzie),到2040年最高可達50%(S&P Global)。這一增長主要由AI數據中心、電氣化進程以及全球能源擴張所驅動,而供應受限可能導致顯著的供需缺口。傳統銅市場(主要通過London Metal Exchange(LME)和COMEX進行交易)依然較為複雜,對全球眾多投資者而言可及性有限。Coppercoin™通過提供透明、可分割且具流動性的數字化所有權(支持全天候24/7交易),改變了這一現狀,為全球投資者提供了一種便捷、合規的方式參與銅市場機遇。Nathaniel T. Bradley,Datavault AI首席執行官表示:“我們今日與Coppercore達成的協議,是我們全球RWA代幣化戰略的重要里程碑。通過對銅資源進行代幣化,我們為投資者提供了機構級、可驗證且具流動性的數字化所有權,同時直接支持為人工智能、電氣化及能源轉型提供動力的關鍵礦產供應鏈。此次合作驗證了我們的專利平台作為戰略性自然資源合規代幣化基準基礎設施的地位。”Antonio Treminio,Coppercore Inc.首席執行官補充道:“與Datavault AI的合作,使作為一家以勘探、開發和生產為導向的銅礦企業,Coppercore能夠通過現代區塊鏈架構,加速我們高品位銅及銀資產的價值創造。Coppercoin™為全球投資者提供了一個合規、全天候(24/7)的數字化路徑,以持有並交易銅資產敞口,並在我們邁向商業化生產的過程中把握產量增長帶來的收益潛力。”這些代幣化資產將依託Datavault AI專有的智能合約技術,實現所有權的可驗證性、基於人工智能的價值評估,以及與商業化銅生產相關的未來收益參與權。本次交易進一步鞏固了Datavault AI在戰略性自然資源代幣化領域的領先地位,並確立Coppercoin™作為合規且具流動性的數字礦產資產行業標杆。關於Datavault AI Inc.Datavault AI™(NASDAQ: DVLT)是Web 3.0環境中以人工智能驅動的數據體驗、資產估值與變現領域的先行者。公司基於雲的平台通過其聲學科學(Acoustic Sciences)與數據科學(Data Sciences)兩大業務部門,提供全面解決方案。Datavault AI的聲學科學部門擁有WiSA®、ADIO®及Sumerian®等專利技術,專注於空間音頻與多聲道無線高清音頻傳輸,涵蓋音頻時序、同步以及多聲道干擾消除等核心知識產權。數據科學部門則利用Web 3.0及高性能計算技術,實現體驗式數據感知、估值及安全變現。該平台服務於多個行業,包括體育與娛樂、活動與場館、生物科技、教育、金融科技、房地產、醫療健康、能源等領域。信息數據交換平台Information Data Exchange®(IDE®)通過將現實世界中的實體對象與不可篡改的元數據安全綁定,實現數字孿生(Digital Twins)及姓名、形象與肖像權的授權,從而推動具備完整性與責任性的人工智能發展。Datavault AI的技術套件具備高度可定制性,涵蓋人工智能與機器學習自動化、第三方系統集成、精細化數據分析、營銷自動化及廣告監測等功能。公司總部位於美國賓夕法尼亞州費城。更多信息請訪問:https://datavaultsite.com 。關於Coppercore Inc.Coppercore Inc.是一家以勘探、開發及生產為導向的銅礦公司,專注於推動高品位銅及銀資源向商業化生產階段發展。網址:www.coppercore.co前瞻性聲明本新聞稿包含有關Datavault AI Inc.(“Datavault AI”、“公司”、“我們”)及其所處行業的“前瞻性聲明”(根據經修訂的《1995年私人證券訴訟改革法案》及其他證券法律的定義),涉及風險與不確定性。在某些情況下,您可以通過諸如“可能(may)”、“或許(might)”、“將(will)”、“應當(shall/should)”、“預期(expects)”、“計劃(plans)”、“預計(anticipates)”、“可能(could)”、“打算(intends)”、“目標(target)”、“項目(projects)”、“設想(contemplates)”、“相信(believes)”、“估計(estimates)”、“預測(predicts)”、“潛在(potential)”、“目標(goal/objective)”、“尋求(seeks)”、“可能性較大(likely)”或“持續(continue)”及其否定形式或類似表述來識別前瞻性聲明,這些表述通常涉及我們的預期、戰略、計劃或意圖。即使未包含上述詞語,也不意味著相關表述不屬於前瞻性聲明。此類前瞻性聲明包括但不限於:有關未來事件的陳述、與Coppercore合作的預期收益、公司專有IDE®、DataScore®、DataValue®及Data Vault®平台通過基於區塊鏈的代幣化對Coppercore銅銀礦資源所有權權益進行數字化的預期部署情況,以及公司商業戰略的預期運營、技術和商業成果,以及與數字資產相關監管變化的預期方向及其市場影響等。這些陳述均基於公司及其管理層認為合理的估計和假設,但其本質上具有不確定性。敬請讀者不要過度依賴本新聞稿中的這些及其他前瞻性聲明。由於多種風險和不確定性,實際結果可能與上述前瞻性聲明所示存在重大差異,這些風險包括但不限於:對安全高性能數據處理的市場需求變化;公司專有IDE®、DataScore®、DataValue®及Data Vault®平台在通過區塊鏈代幣化對Coppercore銅銀礦資源所有權權益進行數字化方面的性能、實施時間或成功程度;市場對Datavault AI服務和產品需求的變化;經濟、市場或監管環境的變化;與代幣化資產相關的監管框架演變風險;技術開發與整合相關風險;以及Datavault AI向美國證券交易委員會(SEC)提交的文件中更為詳細描述的其他風險與不確定性,包括其截至2025年12月31日止年度的Form 10-K年報及其不時向SEC提交的其他文件(可在SEC網站www.sec.gov查閱)。上述因素均可能導致實際結果與預期存在差異。本新聞稿中的前瞻性聲明僅反映聲明作出之日的情況。除法律要求外,Datavault AI不承擔更新本新聞稿中任何前瞻性聲明的義務,無論是因後續事件、情況變化、新信息或未預見事件的發生。Datavault AI未必能夠實現其前瞻性聲明中披露的計劃、意圖或預期,投資者不應對該等前瞻性聲明給予過度依賴。此外,Datavault AI的前瞻性聲明未反映其未來可能進行的任何收購、合併、資產處置、合資或投資所帶來的潛在影響。欲了解更多信息,請訪問:https://datavaultsite.com 或聯繫投資者關係部門。資料來源:1.

汽油價格可能漲到多高?伊朗戰爭持續影響的必知事項 News

汽油價格可能漲到多高?伊朗戰爭持續影響的必知事項

(SeaPRwire) - Donald Trump 與伊朗的戰爭讓美國民眾付出了高昂的代價,而在三月的最後幾天,這場衝突突破了一個新的門檻。根據價格追蹤服務 GasBuddy 和 American Automobile Association 的數據,自 2022 年俄羅斯入侵烏克蘭以來,全國汽油零售平均價格首次突破每加侖 4 美元。這標誌著自 2 月 28 日戰爭開始前上個月的價格相比,漲幅超過了 1 美元。為什麼汽油價格突破每加侖 4 美元這波漲勢是由與衝突相關的全球油價上漲所推動,衝突威脅了供應,並引發了對荷姆茲海峽(Strait of Hormuz)等關鍵運輸路線中斷的擔憂。GasBuddy 石油分析主管 Patrick De Haan 警告稱,全國平均每加侖 4 美元的價格突破了一道「心理防線」。全球資產管理公司 WisdomTree 的資深經濟學家 Jeremy Siegel 本月稍早在一份報告中寫道,與先前報導的原油價格飆升相比,汽油是「經濟中對消費者而言最顯眼的價格,當該價格跳漲時,會立即衝擊心理。」Trump 政府試圖在今年期中選舉前以負擔能力作為競選主軸,但戰爭只會加劇本已掙扎的美國經濟。這場衝突不僅威脅到全球能源資源,還擾亂了食品供應與生產、旅遊和運輸成本,所有這些因素都將美國進一步推向可能的衰退。此外,儘管談判仍在進行,但沒有跡象顯示衝突會很快緩解,這意味著汽油價格可能會進一步上漲,特別是如果全球約五分之一石油供應所經過的荷姆茲海峽持續中斷的話。「局勢仍然高度不穩定且難以預測,」De Haan 在 3 月 30 日的部落格文章中表示。自伊朗戰爭開始以來汽油價格上漲了多少GasBuddy 的最新數據顯示,每加侖汽油價格已較上個月的平均價格 2.97 美元上漲了 1.04 美元。AAA 記錄的漲幅與一個月前相似:從 2 月 26 日的 2.98 美元,漲至 3 月 26 日的 3.98 美元,再到 3 月 31 日的 4.02 美元。季節性的春假旅遊需求也推高了汽油價格。美國西岸部分地區,特別是加州,汽油價格甚至更高。GasBuddy 記錄 3 月 31 日的平均價格為每加侖 5.87 美元。該州對特殊混合汽油的強制規定、缺乏石油基礎設施連接以及高額汽油稅,都導致了更高的燃料成本。能源經濟學家 Philip Verleger 在一份被 Reuters 報導的報告中寫道,美國西岸「將成為攻擊伊朗後果的代名詞」。為什麼柴油價格飆升及其對消費者的意義根據 AAA 的數據,作為運輸、航運、建築和農業等許多關鍵行業主要燃料的柴油價格,週二達到每加侖 5.45 美元,自戰爭開始以來上漲了 45%。柴油成本的上漲可能會對供應鏈產生連鎖反應:審計、稅務和諮詢公司 RSM US 的首席經濟學家 Joe Brusuelas 向 Bloomberg 估計,柴油價格上漲 10% 可能會推高整體消費者物價指數 0.1%。根據 U.S. Energy Information Administration 的數據,儘管美國是主要的石油生產國,但汽油價格仍與全球原油市場掛鉤,而柴油成本在很大程度上受到這些全球基準的影響。柴油的提煉成本、分銷和稅費也增加了其價格。政府已試圖減輕戰爭對加油站價格的影響。3 月稍早,Trump 下令能源部從戰略石油儲備(Strategic Petroleum Reserve)中釋放 1.72 億桶石油,這大約需要 120 天才能交付。Trump 還豁免了《瓊斯法案》(Jones Act)60 天,允許懸掛外國旗幟的船隻在美國港口之間運輸貨物,這可能有助於減輕運輸成本;他還允許銷售高乙醇混合汽油(通常因煙霧問題而禁止夏季銷售),試圖降低汽油價格。汽油價格未來可能漲到多高分析師預測加油站價格只會上漲。「很有可能還會漲,因為原油價格與消費者在加油站支付的價格之間通常存在滯後,」Price Futures Group 的資深市場分析師 Phil Flynn 對 Fox Business 表示。Mizuho Securities 的大宗商品專家 Robert Yawger 本月稍早告訴 Wall Street Journal,原油價格每桶上漲 10 美元,可能會使汽油價格每加侖上漲 10 至 15 美分,而 BloombergNEF 估計,在緊張局勢升級的情況下,同樣每桶 10 美元的成本增加,可能會使汽油價格上漲 30 至 40 美分。GasBuddy 的 De Haan 在 3 月 30 日的部落格中表示,如果局勢持續下去,美國的全國汽油平均價格可能會「突破每加侖 4 美元的關卡」。另一方面,De Haan 表示,柴油價格可能達到每加侖 6 美元,如果情況沒有改善,甚至可能「創下新紀錄」。澳洲公司 Macquarie Group 的策略師警告稱,如果戰爭持續到夏天,油價可能達到每桶 200 美元,這可能將加油站價格推高至每加侖 7 美元。據報導,這些分析師認為這種結果的可能性為 40%,而另一種他們認為可能性為 60% 的情境是,伊朗的衝突將在本月結束,隨後油價將下跌,儘管價格仍將高於戰前水平。「價格上漲像火箭,下跌像羽毛,」南加州大學(University of Southern California)供應鏈專家兼教授 Michael Mische 對 Fox Business 表示。在接受 Reuters 採訪時,分析師還表示,如果伊朗關鍵石油樞紐哈爾克島(Kharg Island)在衝突中受損,布蘭特原油價格可能達到每桶 120 美元,一些分析師預測甚至高達 200 美元。在其 2026 年 3 月的短期展望中,Energy Information Administration 預計布蘭特原油價格在未來兩個月內將保持在每桶 95 美元以上,隨後在 2026 年第三季跌至每桶 80 美元以下,並在年底結束時達到每桶 70 美元左右。Energy Information Administration 還在其報告中表示,其對 2026 年零售汽油價格的年度平均預測為每加侖 3.34 美元,原油價格可能使 3 月份的零售汽油價格每加侖高出約 60 美分,2026 年第二季每加侖高出約 70 美分,之後預計到年底將回落至每加侖 3 美元左右。但這些預測基於幾個假設,包括停產的石油產量將在 4 月初達到頂峰,以及通過荷姆茲海峽的運輸將會改善。而這還有待觀察。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Charity Event Interrupted by Online Gambling Personalities iGame

Charity Event Interrupted by Online Gambling Personalities

(AsiaGameHub) - Photographer Steve Williams is a well-recognized figure in Los Angeles’ Skid Row due to nearly twenty years of philanthropic efforts. His organization focuses on hosting events to provide food and necessities while offering emotional support to the community. However, a recent interruption at a charity drive highlighted the problematic behavior of online gambling influencers. The Interruption Might Have Been Deliberate While volunteers were in the middle of providing over 300 meals, two young individuals arrived carrying large amounts of alcohol. Witnesses reported that the pair started handing out bottles of vodka and whiskey to those waiting for food. Williams confronted the individuals immediately and ordered them to depart. In a post on X, Williams noted that the actions of the two men ran counter to the goals of the event. He pointed out that distributing liquor in an area where people struggle with addiction daily was incredibly damaging. Williams emphasized that the priority should remain on essentials like food, clothing, and sustained assistance to help people improve their lives. “In an environment where individuals are battling for survival… why introduce something that ruins lives? We provide more than 1,200 meals monthly because people require hope—not liquor.” Steve Williams Reports suggest the two men may have had an underlying motive rather than just being misguided. One individual was wearing camera glasses and allegedly mentioned the crypto-based gambling site Rainbet. While the specifics were unclear, observers believed the men were capturing footage for potentially profitable online content. Controversy Surrounding Online Casino Marketing Grows The suspected link to online gambling shifted the perspective on the incident. What could have been seen as a lapse in judgment appeared instead to be a coordinated stunt using vulnerable populations to gain attention. Although the men eventually departed, Williams expressed deep frustration, noting that the problem goes beyond this specific event. The connection to the gambling industry is particularly concerning. Sites like Rainbet function mainly through online platforms, frequently using influencers and streamers to grow their audience. Their marketing often appears unexpectedly within web videos and live streams. Earlier this month, the Rainbet logo was seen in overlays during a Netflix documentary titled Louis Theroux: The Manosphere. These placements were subtle but drew criticism regarding gambling-related risks. This latest occurrence further complicates the situation as digital creators obscure the boundaries between philanthropy, entertainment, and marketing. For Williams and his organization, the event served as a stark example of how easily their mission can be compromised. This article is provided by a third-party.

Animo Studios and Stake Launch a Reimagined Live Casino Game iGame

Animo Studios and Stake Launch a Reimagined Live Casino Game

(AsiaGameHub) - This new Stake-exclusive title pushes roulette past its traditional limits, leaning on novelty and visual spectacle rather than a full rewrite of the game's core rules A brand-new live casino release reimagines the look and feel of online roulette. Animo Studios has launched City Roulette, an exclusive title built for Stake. The game features a gameshow-inspired presentation while still delivering a full, traditional table game experience. It lets players interact with the game world beyond just placing chips on a number, ushering in a new era of innovation for live casino gaming. Animated Presenters Engage With the In-Game Space During gameplay, every spin impacts the simulated cityscape, triggering movement across the entire skyline. Lights, billboards, and buildings react to players' actions, while multipliers appear within the environment instead of as basic overlays on the screen. Hosts are another standout feature. Rather than a dealer standing behind a static table, animated characters guide players through the game. Real human presenters are converted into live, responsive characters. Each host has a unique visual identity and one-of-a-kind interactions with the audience. Live casino games have traditionally relied on a human presenter to build player trust. This new approach preserves that key human element but places it within a flexible animated setting that lets the character interact directly with the game space. Overall, City Roulette delivers players an experience that sits between a game show and a livestream. Each round can activate boosted payouts that reach up to 500 times the original stake, while the multiplier system adds an extra layer of competitiveness. These boosts are not active every round, but when they do appear, they become the main attraction of the spin, drawing focus to the chance of a much larger win. The Technology Shows Great Potential Animo's founder, Harley Fresh, frames the project as a proof of concept rather than a fully finished product. He notes that the system can support a wide range of themes, characters, and even different game formats, turning a once-static experience into a constantly evolving system. This kind of flexibility and scalability could be extremely valuable for partners looking to strengthen their game offerings. “Stake City Roulette is an early example of what our technology can achieve, blending real-time entertainment with tools that bring recognizable characters and interactive environments to life.” Harley Fresh, Founder of Animo Studios For Stake, the exclusive nature of the title gives it significant appeal. The platform has built its identity around content that cannot be found anywhere else, and City Roulette fits perfectly into that strategy. Branding is woven directly into the environment, creating the feeling that players are interacting with a self-contained world, rather than a generic, neutral game table. This launch also offers a glimpse into the future of live casino games. While past innovations have mostly focused on adding side bets or improving payout structures, Animo Studios instead prioritizes presentation and interactivity. It remains unclear whether this approach will gain widespread traction. Even so, the unique blend of live broadcasting and animated environments has the potential to redefine live casino gaming.

Guard at Oakland Gambling Den Set Free After No Connection to Unsolved Murder Is Found iGame

Guard at Oakland Gambling Den Set Free After No Connection to Unsolved Murder Is Found

(AsiaGameHub) - Ray Gilbert, 27, who was employed as a “security guard” at an illegal gambling den in Oakland, California, and was found holding a firearm linked to an unsolved murder, has been set free after authorities were unable to connect him to the killing. Man Goes Free After Officials Are Unable to Establish a Connection Between Him and the Killing Gilbert was first taken into custody alongside three other people in July 2023 during a law enforcement raid on the illegal casino. A few weeks later, a search of his residence turned up a gun that detectives confirmed was used in the fatal shooting of 21-year-old Mynyamani Stevenson in the parking lot of the Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church in Oakland on July 29, 2023. Federal prosecutors later indicted Gilbert, alleging he was part of a “robbery crew” with ties to Oakland’s Case Gang. Court records show that the group targeted victims, including a man who had won cash at the Livermore Casino, trailing him back to his home before robbing him. Assistant Federal Public Defender Gabriela Bischof, Gilbert’s legal representative, noted that the government’s evidence only indicates Gilbert is connected to people and environments that may be seen as negative influences. She argued that based on the submitted facts, the Court cannot conclude that her client personally participated in violent behavior, nor should he face punishment for his associations. Gilbert spent around two years in custody after the case was filed, and following his release, he has obtained a position at a warehouse in the East Bay. In court filings, Bischof stated that Gilbert has made a positive life change. In other recent updates related to illicit gambling operations, Taiwanese law enforcement broke up a multi-billion-dollar criminal ring that used casinos in Macau to launder illegally obtained funds. Hard Life Circumstances Drove Gilbert Toward Criminal Activity Bischof explained that Gilbert has encountered violence for his entire life, having been shot five times, with the first incident happening at age 13. His father was killed when Gilbert was only 5, and as an adult in 2021, he was bitten for 45 seconds by Purcy, the K9 handled by disgraced former Antioch officer Morteza Amiri. Earlier this year, Amiri was handed a federal prison sentence for setting his dog on a man without valid reason. Gilbert has been repeatedly targeted by law enforcement, but has so far avoided long prison sentences. In 2020, his phone was wiretapped, along with the devices of six other people suspected of being affiliated with the Case Gang. This surveillance was conducted in connection with the murder of 27-year-old Shawn Tillis in San Pablo, and the nonfatal shooting of a former Case Gang member who had been labeled a “snitch” by the group. None of the suspects were ever charged, however. In other shooting-related news, a man was fatally shot by police last week in Thackerville, Oklahoma, after he pulled out a gun when officers approached him.

Datavault AI and Coppercore Inc. Announce Tokenization of High-Grade Copper Resources into Coppercoin(TM) ACN Newswire

Datavault AI and Coppercore Inc. Announce Tokenization of High-Grade Copper Resources into Coppercoin(TM)

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Mar 31, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a leader in data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization technologies, and Coppercore Inc. ("Coppercore") today announced the closing of a definitive agreement to digitize and tokenize significant copper resources.The transaction enables Datavault AI to deploy its patented IDE®, DataScore®, and DataValue® blockchain tokenization platform to create Coppercoin™ digital tokens representing pro-rata ownership interests in the underlying in-ground resources. The initial program targets the minting of $100 million or more in Digital Copper Tokens.Coppercoin™ tokens are structured such that each token corresponds to five pounds of underlying high-grade copper resources, with pricing directly linked to the COMEX copper benchmark on a per-pound basis.This mechanism provides fractional, transparent, and liquid digital ownership while aligning investors' returns with physical copper market dynamics and future production upside. The initial $100 million program is scheduled for launch by the end of the second calendar quarter of this year, making tokenized copper accessible to global investors around the clock.Coppercoin™ introduces a new digital asset class that delivers market efficiencies and opportunities, including upgrade of processes and the future production of copper industrial products such as Cu concentrate, Cu cement, and Cu refined copper ("Cathodes").Copper is the foundational metal powering the global energy transition, AI infrastructure, electrification, renewable energy systems, and decarbonization. Global copper demand is projected to surge dramatically - 24% by 2035 (Wood Mackenzie) and up to 50% by 2040 (S&P Global), driven by AI data centers, electrification, and global energy expansion, while supply constraints risk significant deficits. Traditional copper markets (primarily trade on the London Metal Exchange (LME) and Commodities Exchange Inc. (COMEX) remain complex and less accessible for many investors worldwide. Coppercoin™ changes this by offering transparent, fractional, and liquid digital ownership - tradeable 24/7 - providing global investors an easy, compliant way to participate in the copper market opportunity.Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI, stated: "Today's agreement with Coppercore represents a major milestone in our global RWA tokenization strategy. By tokenizing copper resources, we are delivering institutional-grade, verifiable, and liquid digital ownership to investors while directly supporting the critical minerals supply chain that powers AI, electrification, and the energy transition. This partnership validates our patented platform as the benchmark infrastructure for compliant tokenization of strategic natural resources."Antonio Treminio, CEO of Coppercore Inc., added: "Partnering with Datavault AI allows Coppercore, as an exploration, development, and production-oriented copper mining company, to accelerate value creation from our high-grade copper and silver assets through a modern blockchain structure. Coppercoin™ provides a compliant, 24/7 digital pathway for investors worldwide to own and trade copper exposure, capturing production upside as we advance toward commercial output."The tokenized assets will leverage Datavault AI's proprietary smart-contract technology for verifiable ownership, AI-driven valuation, and future revenue participation rights tied to commercial copper production.
