乔治·斯蒂尔、凯特·杜格威德和哈丽特·克拉菲尔特 —— 纽约 埃米莉·赫伯特 —— 伦敦 纽约时间午间,华尔街股票上涨,投资者认为民主党在2026年美国中期选举中取得压倒性胜利,可能会遏制白宫的政策,这些政策曾引发全球市场动荡。标普500指数上涨1.8%,而以科技股为主的纳斯达克100指数上涨1.6%,投资者在一天内大幅波动中试图判断民主党对人工智能产业的反弹可能带来的赢家与输家。
埃斯瓦尔·普拉萨德(Eswar Prasad)的客座专栏《\$6.3亿美元比特币交易所黑客事件的成因》(观点,11月3日)指出,在所谓去中心化金融中,单一故障点的回归。通过授予AI代理移动资金的权限,金融机构面临着相同脆弱性的风险。报道中提到的工程师笔记本被入侵,说明仅仅安全的区块链无法保护其周边系统。
金融界人士表示,民主党在周二的美国中期选举中取得的胜利为投资者开辟了一条回归某种正常生活的道路。多年来,资产管理者已经习惯了各种灾难性事件:一波三折的战争(导致通胀飙升)、对市场最核心机构(特别是美联储)信誉的攻击,以及一位自肥总统破坏国际联盟并任意挑选企业获胜者的荒诞景象。
飙升的石油和天然气价格推动货币集团通胀预估值至$4%(百分之四) 奥拉夫·斯托贝克(Olaf Storbeck)——法兰克福 欧元区通胀率在10月份飙升至三年高点的4%,主要受到飙升的石油和天然气价格影响,进一步压缩了家庭的购买力。欧盟统计局(Eurostat)昨日发布的初步估计显示,该数据较9月份的3.8%上升,与路透社调查中经济学家的预测一致。
A. 阿南塔·拉克什米和迪亚娜·马里斯卡 —— 雅加达 印尼在首都街头部署了20,000名士兵,并逮捕了三名高级警官,一场涉及对国家总统普拉博沃·苏比安托的窃听丑闻爆发,进一步加剧了该国因经济困境而面临的压力。根据印尼警察刑事调查局局长阿塞普·萨弗鲁丁(Asep Safrudin)的说法,两名高级警官和总统普拉博沃·苏比安托的首席幕僚(一名前国家警察总长)已被逮捕。
希利承诺,为“预防性”措施划定预算“围栏”将节省资金 乔治·帕克和克里斯·斯迈斯 詹妮弗·威廉姆斯 —— 曼彻斯特 财政大臣约翰·希利承诺将对公共开支控制进行重大改革,许诺新的规则将为“预防性”项目划定预算“围栏”,以便在未来节省资金。希利表示,明年的开支审查将标志着“长期重大转变”,通过保护能够防止问题恶化的投资,创建一个新的开支类别。
瓦伦蒂娜·罗梅伊、萨姆·弗莱明和德尔菲娜·施特劳斯 —— 伦敦 能源价格上涨将推动通胀在明年初达到三年来的最高水平,根据《金融时报》调查的经济学家表示,这将进一步加大英国央行(Bank of England)在今日利率决策前上调利率的压力。经济学家调查显示,通胀预计将在明年平均达到4.4%,本周进行的对12名经济学家的调查发现,大多数人预计价格增长将在明年第一季度达到最高峰。
律师被聘请追索股权分红,律师事务所准备清算 苏杰特·因达普、凯伊·威金斯和奥利弗·巴恩斯 —— 纽约苏齐·林 —— 伦敦 前韦尔·戈什尔·曼吉斯律师事务所(Weil, Gotshal & Manges)的合伙人聘请了律师代表他们在事务所即将清算期间,争取回收部分股权价值。
伦敦债券交易商的基金在4年内从创业公司成长为梅菲尔主流机构,但现在正努力维持其投资组合 罗伯特·史密斯、尤安·希利、科斯塔斯·穆尔塞拉斯和奥尔特恩卡·阿利亚 经过4年显著回报和疯狂增长后,阿里尼资本管理公司(Arini Capital Management)的魅力创始人哈姆扎·莱姆苏格尔(Hamza Lemssouguer)今年决定,其6,400平方英尺的梅菲尔办公室(Mayfair office)已经不再适用。
今年早些时候,Lemssouguer 成立了一个家族办公室,位于泽西的 LIO Limited,以监管其日益增长的个人财富,并与妻子共同设立一个慈善基金会,专注于“南美洲和非洲的教育、野生动物保护和当地社区赋能”。
莱斯·阿尔-哈拉夫(Laith Al-Khalaf) —— 伦敦 拉曼·巴蒂亚(Raman Bhatia)正准备卸任星灵银行(Starling Bank)首席执行官一职,任期仅两年,而这家英国数字银行正面临增长放缓的困境。据三名知情人士透露,巴蒂亚已向银行董事会私下表示,不再想继续担任该金融科技公司的领导人。

西蒙·曼迪(Simon Mundy) 两年前,在哥伦比亚城市卡利,全球各国政府达成协议,计划从大型企业筹集数十亿加元用于环境保护。联合国将卡利基金的创立(2024年)誉为“具有全球重要意义的历史性决定”,但迄今为止,基金仅收到$10,000的捐款。这一计划是否注定失败,还能否实现?
道德压力对企业无法提供足够的资金来拯救地球。IDDRI智库高级研究员朱丽叶特·兰德里(Juliette Landry)表示,一个关键问题是:政府是否会采取政策措施,强制或激励公司向卡利基金(Cali Fund)缴纳资金。她指出,一个主要障碍是担心落后于美国——这是唯一一个未加入联合国生物多样性公约的联合国成员国。

1984年罗纳德·里根(Ronald Reagan)竞选连任时的口号“1984年‘美国复兴’”在某些关键方面依然适用。当时,它传达了希望与复兴的画面。在周二震惊全美的中期选举结果之后,一个所谓的“蓝潮”(a so-called Blue Wave)为大多数担忧由唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)及其“MAGA”狂热支持者领导未来的美国人,带来了某种宽慰与希望。
企业金融领域。今年,超大规模运营商(hyper-scalers)正从盈利现金流转向亏损现金流。随着利率上升,金融压力更有可能发生。阿尔法贝特(Google母公司)可能成为这场危机的“金丝雀”。其最新财报显示,核心搜索业务增长骤减,显然被广受赞誉的突破——AI驱动的查询功能所“吞噬”。

诚然,AI本身正变成一个极化问题——HundredX最近的调查显示,左翼和右翼倾向的受访者在继续使用该技术的意愿上存在巨大分歧。但它也将带来真实的经济利益。此外,停止建设可能会给更广泛的经济带来寒意。数据中心的建设正在比其他类型的建筑活动增长得更快。对于AI公司的投资者来说,暂停可能带来的“呼吸空间”有银色内幕。
看起来,加利福尼亚州的选民在周二否决了“亿万富翁税”,这将对如Nvidia的Jensen Huang和Meta Platforms的Mark Zuckerberg等科技创业者征税。因此,英国可以为自己与时俱进而庆幸。财政大臣约翰·希利(John Healey)上周提出了一项方案,将公司创始人和大额早期股东在利润不超过£10的情况下,将资本利得税降至10%。
- 选民将共和党从美国国会权力中清洗出局——生活成本上升引发民主党蓝潮 - 德文斯将责任归咎于伊朗战争,党内开始互相指责——油价暴跌,科技超级平台(hyperscalers)股价飙升 [图片标识:IMG_F8DDA712] [图片标识:IMG_CB16FF83] 詹姆斯·波利蒂 —— 华盛顿
各方寻找2028年竞选热门人选 距离大选还有两年,但共和党和民主党都在为角逐白宫而动员。由于唐纳德·特朗普被排除在第三任连任之外,两党都将寻找新的候选人。特朗普支持者约翰·德文斯(JD Vance)是其最自然的继任人选,但传统主义者罗恩·德桑蒂斯(Ron DeSantis)则是一匹黑马。
伊朗战争成为共和党败选长列不满的首要原因 亚历克斯·罗杰斯 —— 华盛顿 美国各地共和党人尚未从败选的阴影中走出,便迅速开始相互指责,明确将失去众议院和参议院席位的责任归咎于特朗普。他们指责特朗普发动伊朗战争,违背承诺,包括不发动新战争和降低成本的承诺。他们还指责他强行推倒白宫舞厅、从卡塔尔乘坐私人喷气式飞机、在任首年赚取$2,以及最初抵制国会释放杰弗里·埃普斯坦档案的努力。
斯蒂芬妮·芬德莱 —— 奥斯汀 詹姆斯·塔拉里科(James Talarico)在得克萨斯州赢得参议员席位,为民主党在该州30多年来首次赢得参议员选举,不仅对其对手肯·帕克森(Ken Paxton)是一重打击,也对曾斥资数千万加元支持共和党候选人竞选的亿万富翁埃隆·马斯克(Elon Musk)造成重创。
「人们对(特朗普威胁第三次竞选)感到如此兴奋,但我们必须让这个人走开」 乔治·斯蒂尔 —— 纽约 在理查德·尼克松和教皇的肖像陪衬下,纽约年轻共和党俱乐部(NYYRC)竞选主席马里奥·尼科莱托(Mario Nicoletto)开玩笑道,尽管周二民主党的“蓝潮”正在形成,但他仍然符合总统的风格。
詹姆斯·波利蒂 —— 华盛顿 当晚结束时,唐纳德·特朗普只能在社交媒体上抱怨他刚刚遭遇的惨败。他在Truth Social上写道:“我没有在选票上,如果我有的话,我们会以 IN A LANDSLIDE 获胜!” 美国总统在之前的中期选举中曾遭遇过惨败,从乔治·W·布什在2006年的“惨败”到巴拉克·奥巴马在2010年的“彻底失败”。
杰夫·罗里克(Jeff Rohrick),54岁,在一家非营利组织工作时表示:“比如,情况必须恶化到什么程度?底线在哪里?” 长期借贷成本也在上升,30年期抵押贷款基准利率飙升至7%以上。在选举前夕,特朗普执政期间的平均汽油价格首次超过拜登执政期间的水平,达到每加仑3.46加元。
乔·米勒 —— 华盛顿 在民主党两年观望特朗普(Donald Trump)致富、发动战争并实施大规模关税政策后,该党现在重新掌权,并准备行动。海克姆·杰弗里斯(Hakeem Jeffries)承诺在新一届美国国会于1月3日宣誓就职后的100小时内提出议程。“我们将集中精力让生活变得更加负担得起”,纽约众议员杰弗里斯表示。
这场选举带来了历史性的“蓝潮”,民主党在全国各地的共和党传统高地中获胜,选民因特朗普政府在伊朗战争中推高的汽油价格而惩罚了其执政。在投票结束后两小时内,民主党就夺取了参议院和众议院的控制权。与两年前的总统选举结果相比,民主党参议院候选人大幅增加了选票份额。在得克萨斯州、南卡罗来纳州和堪萨斯州——这些州在2024年特朗普以双位数优势获胜——民主党取得了巨大进展,标志着共和党在曾被视为深红色的州份中支持率急剧下滑。
亚历克斯·罗杰斯(Alex Rogers)——华盛顿 民主党通过在一系列传统共和党强州获胜,赢得了美国参议院的控制权,为华盛顿带来了新鲜血液。被认为是潜在总统候选人阵营的民主党新一代领导人包括一位卫理公会牧师、一位残奥金牌得主、一位伐木工、一位儿科医生、一位州卫生官员和一位前六年级教师。
一位罗德学者和前县卫生主任,42,岁的阿卜杜勒·艾尔-赛义德(Abdul El-Sayed)在一场关键的中西部摇摆州选举中获胜,其平台属于极左翼。他提出废除移民与海关执法局(ICE)并保证为所有人提供医疗保健。艾尔-赛义德将成为美国历史上首位穆斯林参议员,他称以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡对7 2023哈马斯对以色列的袭击的回应是一场“种族灭绝”。
一名曾任小学六年级教师、正在学习成为长老会牧师的詹姆斯·塔拉里科(37岁),是自1988年以来首位赢得得克萨斯州参议员选举的民主党人。在竞选活动中,塔拉里科将负担得起性问题与腐败联系起来,提出增加医疗和住房抵扣、对财富征收更高税收,并呼吁禁止超级政治行动委员会(Super PACs)、划分选区(gerrymandering)以及国会议员持股交易。
儿科医生安妮·安德鲁斯(46岁)是自1998年以来首位当选南卡罗来纳州参议员的民主党人,击败了林赛·格雷姆的妹妹达琳·格雷姆,后者在其兄长去世后被任命为该席位候选人。安德鲁斯提出的议程包括扩大医疗补助(Medicaid)覆盖范围(为贫困人群提供医疗保险)以及结束对伊朗的战争。
阿达姆·汉密尔顿(62岁)是一名堪萨斯州大型教堂的卫理公会牧师,是自1932年以来首位当选美国参议员的堪萨斯州民主党人。汉密尔顿击败了共和党参议员罗杰·马歇尔,后者在其担任产科医生的职业生涯中曾因未结清账单而起诉数百名客户。
前北卡罗来纳州州长和州检察长罗伊·库珀(69岁)击败了前共和党党魁迈克尔·惠特利,该州自2008年以来首次选出民主党参议员。库珀将自己定位为能够抵制保守派社会政策的温和派,同时宣扬自由派成就,如与共和党控制的州立法机构合作扩大医疗补助覆盖范围。
爱荷华州自18年前首次选出民主党参议员。乔什·图雷克(30岁)是一名残奥会金牌得主和州议员,他将个人感人故事与精心构建的攻击相结合,将特朗普的关税和对伊朗的战争与生活成本上涨联系起来。但他也试图在特朗普两年前以13个百分点获胜的州中树立跨党派信誉,表示他对弹劾不感兴趣,并将与特朗普合作处理移民问题。
特洛伊·杰克逊(58岁),一名长期州立法者,在竞选中将自己定位为第五代伐木工和劳工活动家,击败了苏珊·科林斯,后者是参议院资深老手,也是新英格兰地区最后一位代表共和党的国会议员。杰克逊是一名支持伯尼·桑德斯的民主党人,来自该州北部偏远地区。他成为民主党参议员候选人后,接替了格雷姆·普拉特尼(Graham Platner)的位置。
伊利亚·格里德内夫 —— 加拿大卡尔加里 安大略省省长道格·福特在看到美国中期选举结果后表示,选民拒绝了美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的经济议程,他“正在做空中翻筋斗”。福特是特朗普关税政策最强烈的批评者之一,该政策针对其省的汽车和钢铁行业,他表示选举结果也是“加拿大的胜利”。福特说:“我将指示我们的部长们,一旦所有人宣誓就职,就前往华盛顿,与参议员、众议员联系,当然我也会与各州州长交谈。
安娜·尼科劳 —— 纽约 “攻击性报道”。“像石头一样蠢”。“必须去别的地方,直到那个输家下台”。特朗普在选举夜紧盯福克斯新闻,对自己最喜欢的电视台进行了狂暴的攻击,因为共和党遭遇了历史性的败选。总统抱怨福克斯主播之一的声音听起来不舒服,在直播期间给另一位主播发短信,要求他攻击她,并指控该网络背叛了他。
迈尔斯·麦科米克 —— 德摩因斯 乔纳森·文森特、伊娃·肖、萨姆·勒纳和迈克尔·塔菲 —— 纽约 民主党在周二的选举中取得了震惊全国的大胜,选民在各地理和人口统计分区中大规模倒向该党。这场“蓝潮”比大多数民调预测的范围更广,选民纷纷抛弃了美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的共和党,包括在该党曾经不可动摇的心脏地带。
民主党参议员候选人在与2022年总统选举结果相比时,显著增加了选票份额。在得克萨斯州、南卡罗来纳州和堪萨斯州——特朗普在2024年在这些州以双位数优势获胜——民主党取得了巨大进展,标志着共和党在曾被视为深红色的州份中支持率急剧下滑。众议院同样出现类似情况,民主党在大多数选区(包括城市和农村)都取得了进展。
尽管在支持以色列、跨性别权利和经济民粹主义等问题上存在深刻内部分歧,民主党仍成功展现了一个广泛统一的阵线。在密歇根州的竞选最后几天,民主党初选落败者海莱·斯蒂文斯(Haley Stevens)撤回了对民主党候选人阿卜杜勒·艾尔-赛义德(Abdul El-Sayed)的支持,转而支持其共和党对手,据称是因为艾尔-赛义德在以色列问题上的立场。
特朗普一再强调自己插手竞选,要求美国人投票时仿佛他本人在候选名单上,但这种做法在共和党人看来反而弄巧成拙。他在一场侃侃而谈的演讲中,更多关注的是玩笑和攻击,而不是经济问题。左转:投票日,华盛顿反射池左侧的特朗普演讲落空 总统在过去几个月里横跨全国举办集会,希望能激励共和党基层。
共和党尝试通过重新划分多个众议院选区来提高获胜机会,但这些努力在多个州(如得克萨斯州和佛罗里达州)中大多失败。在得克萨斯州,共和党重新划分了五个众议院选区,大致对应三个传统民主党城市——达拉斯、休斯顿和圣安东尼奥,以及边境和海湾沿岸的县。民主党候选人赢得了其中四个选区。剩下的第32选区仍然难以判断,但共和党候选人略占优势。
特朗普插手共和党初选,推翻他视为不够支持其议程的现任候选人,并亲自挑选心仪的候选人。但这些努力似乎反而弄巧成拙。肯·帕克森(Ken Paxton)今年在总统支持下击败了连任24年的约翰·科尼恩(John Cornyn),但最终为民主党赢得了得克萨斯州参议院席位,这是自1988.年以来首次。
民主党人仍在庆祝中期选举的胜利,但美国政界已经将目光转向下一个选举战役:2028年争夺白宫的总统竞选。由于特朗普(Donald Trump)根据宪法无法连任第三届,两大政党都将寻找一位总统候选人。一些最成功的白宫竞选活动往往在中期选举后不久就开始启动。特朗普赢得2024年大选的竞选活动于2022年11月在海湖庄园(Mar-a-Lago)启动,而巴拉克·奥巴马(Barack Obama)的2008年竞选活动则始于2007年2月。
赢得民主党提名的市场隐含概率:16.4% “AOC”自2018年当选众议员以来,已成为左翼的崛起之星,并在2024年民主党初选中有望接替伯尼·桑德斯(Bernie Sanders)成为民主党进步派的旗手。这位纽约人已经明确表示有更广泛的全国性野心,积极为进步派候选人站台,包括密歇根州的阿卜杜勒·艾尔-赛义德(Abdul El-Sayed),并部分调整了部分立场以扩大吸引力。
特朗普长子(Donald Trump Jr) 党内提名获胜概率(市场隐含估计):1.7% 如果特朗普决定将“MAGA”权杖传给家族内部,长子可能是最有可能的继承人。他主要在父亲第二任期内四处寻求商业机遇,但比其他兄弟在2024年竞选活动中花费了更多时间,并通过其多元化的商业利益培养了大量潜在捐款人。
美国民主党在两院的“蓝潮”胜利,不仅是一场显著的政治胜利,更是美国民主史上的里程碑。自2006年1月特朗普第二次就职以来,美国治理体系的“三权制衡”遭遇前所未有的权威主义冲击。选民们在投票站给予的反击,证明了民主制度的根基依然稳固。如果民主党能够抓住机遇,共和党能够重新审视现状,美国政治体系的修复或将由此开始。
在佛罗里达州南部的海湖庄园(Mar-a-Lago)仅十分钟车程处的帕姆比奇县狗展俱乐部(Palm Beach Kennel Club),这绝不是一场普通的“特朗普支持者(Trumpsterz)胜利二日(Triumph Tuesday)”。也不是一场普通的选举观摩派对。它被宣传为“胜利派对”(“帕姆比奇县最大的派对之一!
星条服装被塞进一道丰盛的开胃菜——炸鸡、小香肠卷、鸡串和奶油西红柿面条——当晚的主持人,一位深肤色、头发金色的76岁男子托米·吉安奎蒂(Tommy Gianquitti)和一位穿着闪光TRUMP拉拉队服、牛仔靴的64岁小个子女子莉莎·门克(Lisa Menk),登上舞台,高声唱起了“祝福美国”(God Bless America)。
●中国外交部表示,正与相关各方联系,就4月11日在深圳举行的亚太经合组织(APEC)峰会上,特朗普、习近平和普京三方峰会的潜在可能性进行沟通。4月4日的一篇文章错误地表示外交部未提及特朗普总统。
美国中期选举 周二夜晚看起来标志着唐纳德·特朗普时代的终结。他对美国这场尖锐的个人性中期选举反击的回应很可能会非常激烈。然而,很难想象他如何能从如此强劲的民主党蓝潮中反弹过来,尤其是他曾敦促选民将选举视为对他的个人投票。违背建议,特朗普将选举变成了对他的公投。因此,他也承担了共和党的失败责任。
贾南·加内什 4月,匈牙利总理维克多·奥尔班(Viktor Orbán)最终失去了权力。他的意大利同僚、基督教“姐妹”乔尔吉亚·梅洛尼(Giorgia Meloni)在一场重大公投前也犯了判断错误。上个月,两位右翼领导人在总统选举中落败:巴西的弗拉维奥·博尔索纳罗(Flavio Bolsonaro)和塞尔维亚的阿莱沙·武契奇(Aleksandar Vučić)。
在谁的领导下呢?史蒂夫·班农是一位经济民粹主义者——一位AI怀疑论者——但自他成为白宫内部人士已近十年。约翰·德文斯(JD Vance)似乎意识到共和党必须恢复2016年工人阶级的精神。问题是,这位最“在线”的保守派是否能够真正与三维哺乳动物打交道。特朗普的天赋在于做出和说出极端言行,却不会让人感到奇怪。
美国 迈克尔·斯特雷恩 共和党人在思考其在唐纳德·特朗普之后的未来时,必须认清:总统执政方针中那些明显具有特朗普特色的元素,并未实现其目标,也未推动经济繁荣。在由民粹主义和经济民族主义驱动的政策中,与传统共和党共识大相径庭的最突出举措是贸易战。其两大主要目标是增加制造业就业和缩小贸易赤字。
共和党政府在任内曾尝试(或未能)削减社会保障和医疗保险(Medicare)支出,这两项是预测中结构性赤字的主要驱动因素。这些失败损害了共和党的政治前景。在高通胀和通胀率高于目标的经济环境下,特朗普的贸易战成为政治负担。民调显示,近两-thirds的中期选民认为特朗普的关税政策损害了经济。
CVS集团今年营收达420亿加元,并计划将旗下药房业务以独立上市公司CVS Pharmacy形式剥离。该拆分计划将于2028,完成。大卫·乔纳(David Joyner),CVS首席执行官兼董事长,将负责剩余的精简后医疗解决方案业务。该业务将重点关注Caremark(2007年以27亿加元收购的药品管理商)和Aetna(2018年以78亿加元收购的健康保险商)。
- 原油价格跌至两个月来最低,市场期待美国将结束与伊朗的冲突 - 中期选举结果预计将限制“特朗普发动的伊朗战争” - 全球政府债券在预期通胀压力缓解的情况下反弹 原油价格昨日急剧下跌,创下两个月来的最低水平,因为民主党在美国中期选举中取得压倒性胜利,进一步加大了对美国总统唐纳德·特朗普结束其对伊朗战争的压力。
哈里·德姆普西 —— 东京 日本四大商品交易商昨日因伊朗战争引发的能源市场动荡以及铜价飙升,报告创纪录利润。尽管这些公司的首席执行官仍对中东局势感到忧虑,但他们警惕可能持续的冲突。三菱商事(Mitsubishi Corporation)的中西克弥(Katsuya Nakanishi)警告称,冲突可能持续,并推高油价,因为对唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)战略的不确定性增加,尤其是在民主党在中期选举中重新掌控国会后。
唐纳德·特朗普曾要求选民假装他在本周二的美国选举中参选。他可能会后悔说过这话,因为反对党民主党赢得了国会两院的控制权。但总统并不是唯一一个选民间接表达观点的议题。在某种意义上,中期选举是对AI繁荣或至少AI带动的建设狂热的投票。目前,美国前五大数据中心建设州均由对新建满载服务器的仓库持鹰派态度的民主党执政。

雷切尔·里斯和马杜米塔·穆尔吉亚 比尔·盖茨指责特朗普政府阻碍了应对人工智能(AI)风险的努力,警告称该技术可能被用于制造一场“比新冠疫情更严重的大流行”。在昨天举办的《金融时报》AI未来峰会上,微软联合创始人表示,AI模型的“惊人”能力意味着“其带来的好处和潜在的危害都无法被夸大”。
阅读上周大科技公司业绩报告(报告,10月30日和10月31日),人们可能会认为生成式AI已经进入了盖特纳(Gartner)的“幻滥期”。实际上并非如此。资本下降而使用量上升,并非幻滥期。这是一种定价调整,每项争议技术都经历过这一阶段:家用录像机在贝塔麦克斯(Betamax)案后、录音音乐在纳斯特(Napster)后、共享出行在出租车战争后。
阿姆斯特丹一家Albert Heijn超市,属于Ahold Delhaize旗下品牌之一 —— 拉姆·贝洛尼 / 《金融时报》 阿伦·基尔切尔德(Aaron Kirchfeld) —— 伦敦 劳拉·杜博瓦(Laura Dubois) —— 布鲁塞尔 欧洲最大零售商之一Ahold Delhaize,因上月遭遇网络攻击,财务预期遭到下调。
拉切尔·里斯(Rachel Rees)和克里斯蒂娜·克里德尔(Cristina Criddle) Meta的一位高管表示,即将到来的“人口崩溃”意味着人工智能驱动的生产力提升“迫在眉睫”,技术领袖试图说服持怀疑态度的公众,认为强大的技术将会惠及他们的生活。
顾问公司(Accenture)与西班牙大学合作发表的一份关于人工智能的报告中,充斥着虚假引用、错误归属的研究和看似不存在的案例,引发指控称该顾问公司发表的信息存在“AI幻觉”问题。一份关于人工智能在非洲农业潜力的论文,由IT咨询公司和西班牙大学共同出版,根据AI检测业务GPTZero的调查,该报告包含多处事实错误,其中15个引用存在错误,如标题或作者姓名不准确。
阿拉什·马索迪(伦敦) 吴子京(香港) 拉菲·罗森-乌丁(纽约) 德米特里·塞瓦斯托普洛(华盛顿) 甲骨文公司撤销了一项多亿加元的芯片租赁合同,该合同原本与腾讯签订,原因是受到特朗普政府的施压,这标志着为服务中国AI公司的美国云服务提供商面临日益升级的紧张局势。
甲骨文、腾讯和白宫均未立即回应置评请求。事件显示,随着各自国家争夺技术霸主地位,中美领先的科技公司在发展AI时面临日益增长的困难。国内供应短缺和美国日益严格的出口管制导致中国科技集团寻求更多海外计算能力。这些租赁协议还能为中国科技巨头提供在国内无法获得的英伟达(Nvidia)最先进处理器。

我们需要更坦诚地讨论国家养老金长期可持续性及“三重锁定”机制(Andy Burnham的“三重锁定”调整,1月10日,Inside Politics,FT.com)。关于支持老龄化人口的讨论,不能仅限于养老金支付。传统的退休概念已不再反映今天晚年生活的现实。许多六七十岁的人仍在工作、经营企业、照顾家人或为社区贡献力量。

斯文·里特穆勒(Sven Riethmueller) 当安索普(Anthropic)准备上市时,一场为融资人工智能革命而展开的史无前例的资本竞争正在拉开帷幕。考虑购买该巨型企业股份的投资者应当花费片刻时间,思考员工和高管所获分配的奖励规模。大多数估值最高的科技创业公司都会因这些支付产生巨额开支。
看看优步(Uber)的情况。这家位于旧金山的网约车公司于2019年5月上市后,报告了$3.6亿美元的之前延迟的股权激励费用——这一因素贡献了该期$5.2亿美元的净亏损。公司股价在业绩公告后下跌。安索普(Anthropic)与优步一样,使用一种称为双重触发限制性股票单位(RSUs)的股权奖励来吸引和留住优秀员工。
- 药房与保险业务分拆 —— 标志着巨型并购时代的终结 奥利弗·巴恩斯 —— 纽约 CVS健康集团正在拆分其$117亿加元的医疗保健帝国,将其零售药房链条与保险业务分离,这将成为有史以来规模最大的企业分拆之一。这一举措终结了为期两 decades的巨型并购浪潮,将CVS从一家始于马萨诸塞州单一门店的药店链,打造成一家跨越保险公司、药品利益管理(PBM)和零售药房的垂直整合医疗保健集团。

爱德华·卢斯(Edward Luce)——华盛顿 美国暂无计划对伊朗实施打击,唐纳德·特朗普表示,在中期选举后,他对与伊斯兰共和国的对峙现状感到满意,尽管暗示如果必要,他准备升级冲突。在周二与《金融时报》的电话采访中,美国总统表示,他对当前与伊朗的对峙状态感到满意——尽管他同时表示,如果需要,美国准备好发动战争。
欧洲政治家称特朗普在中期选举中的惨败为重塑紧张的跨大西洋关系并结束伊朗战争提供了机会 《金融时报》记者报道 欧洲政治家们称赞特朗普在美国中期选举中的惨败为缓和紧张的跨大西洋关系提供了机会,西班牙首相佩德罗·桑切斯(Pedro Sánchez),作为欧盟领导人中特朗普最激烈的批评者之一,称赞这一结果为“右翼浪潮的崩溃”。
他表示,他的国家将向美国民主党伸出援手,同时也会与共和党内的“理性力量”合作,以废除贸易关税、停止华盛顿对伊朗的“荒谬战争”,并帮助乌克兰抵抗俄罗斯的侵略。欧洲社会党主席斯特凡·洛夫文(Stefan Löfven)补充称,这一结果是“让美国民主回归正轨的机会……国会现在有了任务:2. 监督、立法并对总统进行问责。

瓦尔加(PVM石油协会分析师)表示,美国政策不确定性可能延长中东局势。日本三井物产(Mitsui & Co)社长堀健一(Kenichi Hori)也表达了相同担忧,称公司正在为一个“地缘政治风险持续不可预测”的世界做准备。三井物产表示,中东冲突将使其年度利润增加¥40亿(约$2.53 亿),这是在首季创纪录利润后的成果。

美国选民对唐纳德·特朗普发出了沉重的谴责,在以经济不满和生活成本飙升为主题的选举中,将其领导的共和党从国会权力中清洗出局。
民主党蓝潮的规模引发了共和党内部的互相指责,这支被震惊的政党试图将这场历史性失败的责任归咎于各个传统阵地。
副总统约翰·德文斯(JD Vance)在X平台上发布了一篇长文,声称特朗普发动的伊朗战争导致了选举惨败,公开表达了他长期以来对这场冲突的不满。
“我们失败的原因就是战争”,德文斯昨日写道,他被认为将于2028年竞选接替特朗普的总统职位。“总统自己昨晚也这么说了。”
油价暴跌,交易商们押注选举失败将增加对特朗普达成与德黑兰和解的压力。布伦特原油价格下跌8.7%,跌至两个月来的最低点,报每桶94.60加元。
当共和党的失败程度变得明显后,美国总统特朗普承认民主党“表现良好”,并补充说:“我不喜欢认为这是我失败了。我没有在选票上。”他没有参选。
德文斯预测在接下来的几个月中,共和党内部将出现大量“内斗”和“气话”(gaslighting),包括是否党的经济信息“足够锋利”。但他补充说,“每个人都知道我们失败的原因”。
在特朗普执政的前两年,选民对其不满的程度可窥一斑。民主党在共和党传统强区取得进展,包括中西部地区的堪萨斯州,该州自1932年以来首次选出民主党参议员,农民对高油价和总统发动的贸易战表示不满。
共和党在南卡罗来纳州、北卡罗来纳州、爱荷华州和得克萨斯州等多个州失去参议院席位,其中詹姆斯·塔拉里科(James Talarico)击败肯·帕克森(Ken Paxton),成为该州自1988年以来首位当选上议院的民主党人。
在密歇根州,进步派阿卜杜勒·艾尔-赛义德(Abdul El-Sayed)在面对资金充足的竞选和同党内部的反对下,成功当选为美国上议院首位穆斯林议员。
共和党内部的互相指责正值民主党掌权后加速制定未来两年议程,他们首次自2023年以来同时掌控参众两院。
海克姆·杰弗里斯(Hakeem Jeffries)承诺在新国会于2028年1月3日宣誓就职后的100小时内,公布民主党的立法计划。他表示,将重点关注“负担得起的生活成本,而非针对唐纳德·特朗普的报复”。
然而,即使民主党掌控参众两院,他们提出的任何立法都可能遭到总统的否决,特朗普上周表示,如果共和党在任何一院失去权力,他将“否决一切”。

尽管华盛顿可能出现僵局,但投资者认为投票结果最终可能会遏制白宫不稳定的政策制定,从而减少市场风险。纽约午间时段,S&P 500上涨1.8%,Nasdaq 100则上涨1.6%。在交易员试图从预期民主党对AI行业的反弹中甄别获胜者和输家的一天里,市场出现了大幅波动。
随着投资者猜测,hyperscalers的股价飙升,他们认为,established tech companies在民主党推动的新数据中心项目反弹中可能更不易受到冲击。
即使计票尚未完成,the scale of the Democrats' victory far surpassed many polls that had predicted solid Democratic wins。

\- Voters sweep Republicans from power in US Congress - Anger over cost of living spurs Democratic blue wave
\- Vance pins blame on Iran war as recriminations begin - Oil prices tumble and tech hyperscalers' shares surge


JAMES POLITI — WASHINGTON
Source: Associated Press as at 7.20pm GMT Nov 4
Americans have delivered a crushing rebuke to Donald Trump, sweeping his Republican Party from power in Congress after an election dominated by anger over the economy and the spiralling cost of living.
The scale of the Democrats' blue wave unleashed Republican recriminations, as the shell-shocked party sought to assign blame for a historic defeat in many traditional strongholds.
Vice-president JD Vance stoked the disquiet with a lengthy post on X in which he argued that Trump's war in Iran had led to the electoral wipeout – airing in public his long-held frustrations over the conflict.
"The reason we lost is the war," wrote Vance yesterday, who is expected to join the 2028 race to succeed Trump. "The president himself said so last night."
Oil prices tumbled as traders bet that the election setback would increase pressure on Trump to reach a settlement with Tehran. Brent crude fell 8.7 per cent to \$94.60, its lowest level in two months.
After the depth of Republican losses became apparent, the US president conceded that the Democrats “did a good job”, adding: “I don’t like to consider it a defeat for me. I wasn’t on the ballot.”
Vance predicted a lot of “infighting” and “gaslighting” among Republicans in the coming months, including over whether the party’s economic message was “sharp enough”. But “everyone knows why we lost”, he added.
In a measure of the level of voter discontent with Trump's first two years, Democrats made inroads deep into
Republican regions including the Midwest where Kansas elected its first Democratic senator since 1932, as farmers lashed out at high fuel costs and the president's trade wars.
The heavy defeats saw the Republican Party lose Senate seats from South and North Carolina to Iowa and Texas, where James Talarico beat Ken Paxton to become the state's first Democrat since the late 1980s to be elected to the upper chamber.
In Michigan, progressive Abdul El-Sayed defied a well-funded campaign and opposition from fellow Democrats to become the US's first Muslim elected to the upper chamber of Congress.
The Republican blame game came as the newly empowered Democrats rushed to sharpen their agenda for the next two years, having seized both chambers of Congress for the first time since 2023.
Hakeem Jeffries has pledged to outline the party's legislative plans within 100 hours of being sworn in as House Speaker in the new Congress on January 3. He said yesterday he would focus on "affordability rather than retribution against Donald Trump".
However, even with control of both the Senate and the House, any legislation that the Democrats introduce could be thwarted by the president, who

said last week he would "veto everything" if Republicans lost power in either chamber.
While the threat of gridlock in Washington raised risks for the Democrats, investors bet that the result of the vote could ultimately restrain the erratic White House policymaking that has stirred up markets. The S&P 500 rose 1.8 per cent by midday in New York, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 was up 1.6 per cent in a day of big swings as traders tried to pick the winners and losers from an anticipated Democrat backlash against the AI industry.
Shares in US hyperscalers surged as investors bet that established tech companies would prove less vulnerable to a Democrat-led pushback against new data centre projects.
Even with the count still incomplete, the scale of the Democrat's victory far surpassed many polls that had predicted solid Democratic wins.
"This is not a partisan moment. This is a patriotic one," Jeffries said.

各方寻找2028年竞选热门人选
距离大选还有两年,但共和党和民主党都在为角逐白宫而动员。由于唐纳德·特朗普被排除在第三任连任之外,两党都将寻找新的候选人。特朗普支持者约翰·德文斯(JD Vance)是其最自然的继任人选,但传统主义者罗恩·德桑蒂斯(Ron DeSantis)则是一匹黑马。对于民主党而言,候选人阵容尚未确定。特朗普的仇敌加文·纽瑟姆(Gavin Newsom)可能抓住机会,但人气候选人乔恩·奥索夫(Jon Ossoff)和左翼明星亚历山德里亚·奥卡西奥-科尔特兹(Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez)也可能出线。大阅读 ▶ 第7页

支持唐纳德·特朗普的硅谷亿万富翁在2024年美国中期选举中向共和党候选人捐款6亿加元,但遭到美国选民的反驳,后者对人工智能和大型科技公司的崛起感到愤怒,助推民主党在国会两院赢得多数席位。
包括埃隆·马斯克在内的捐款人(他单独向各州众议院和参议院竞选投入超过4.7亿加元)为共和党提供了巨大的筹款优势。马斯克近半数的支出流向了备受争议的得克萨斯州共和党人肯·帕克森(Ken Paxton),后者在与民主党人詹姆斯·塔拉里科(James Talarico)的竞争中落败。
与帕克森一样,其他争夺参议院席位的共和党人在关键州的竞选中也落败。Tech Oversight Project非营利组织负责人萨查·霍沃斯(Sacha Haworth)表示:“科技执行官花费数亿加元,但他们的努力不过是纸老虎。”
一位参与中期选举筹款的政治操盘手表示:“钱没有起作用。埃隆·马斯克花费了5亿加元,但在他参与的每一场竞选中都落败。”
科技亿万富翁的奢华竞选支出遭遇了选民对通胀上涨和伊朗战争的愤怒,导致民主党获得“灰色”席位大幅度转变,该人士称。他说道:“这股潮流如此强劲,以至于超越了(科技)支出。”
与科技相关的亿万富翁也在阻止民主党人谢罗德·布朗(Sherrod Brown)重返参议院的努力中耗费巨资,布朗曾是该领域的主要批评者。
为支持亲密码货币候选人的超级政治行动委员会Fairshake耗资超过5000万加元,在广告中攻击布朗,布朗曾是参议院银行委员会的前主席。
科技行业再遭重创,数十个数据中心建设暂停令通过,因为选民对支持AI繁荣的基础设施建设表达了反对意见。
资深民主党人,包括众议院进步派领袖格雷格·卡萨尔(Greg Casar),已经呼吁党在新一届国会中利用其新权力,迫使AI负责人在明年宣誓作证。
选举结果明朗后,马斯克删除了一条他在X(微博)上发布的帖子,其中他鼓励选民支持共和党候选人。“今天投票红色!”但当民主党胜利的规模变得明显后,该帖子被撤下。马斯克受挫 ▶ 第2页

Parties scan for favourites as 2028 race set in motion
Election day is still two years away but both Republicans and Democrats are mobilising for a run at the Oval Office. With Donald Trump disqualified from a third term, both parties will be seeking a candidate. Maga loyalist JD Vance is his most natural heir but traditionalist Ron DeSantis is a potential dark horse. For the Democrats, the field is open. Trump scourge Gavin Newsom might seize his chance but the popular Jon Ossoff and star of the left Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez could also step forward.

Silicon Valley billionaires who supported Donald Trump by donating \$600mn to Republican candidates in the US midterm elections have been rebuked by American voters, whose anger at the rise of AI and Big Tech helped Democrats win a majority in both houses of Congress.
Donors including Elon Musk, who alone dumped more than \$470mn into various House and Senate races, gave Republicans a huge fundraising advantage. Nearly half of Musk's spending went to Ken Paxton, the scandal-plagued Texas Republican who lost to Democrat James Talarico.
Like Paxton, other Republicans competing for Senate seats in battleground states lost. "Tech executives spent hundreds of millions of dollars but their efforts proved to be nothing more than a paper tiger," said Sacha Haworth, who heads the non-profit group Tech Oversight Project.
"The money didn't work," said one political operative who had coordinated spending in the midterms. "Elon Musk spent half a billion dollars and lost every race he showed up in."
The tech billionaires' lavish campaign spending ran into a wall of voter anger at rising inflation and the Iran war, leading to the “monolithic” vote swing towards the Democrats, according to the person. “The wave was so big that it trounced the spending [on tech],” they said.
Crypto industry-aligned billionaires also spent heavily in an unsuccessful effort to prevent Democrat Sherrod Brown from returning to the Senate, where he has been a leading critic of the sector.
Fairshake, a Super Pac established to support crypto-friendly candidates, spent more than \$50mn on ads against Brown, the former chair of the Senate banking committee.
In a further blow to the tech industry, dozens of data centre moratoriums were passed, as voters voiced opposition to construction of the infrastructure that underpins the AI boom.
Senior Democrats including Greg Casar, the leader of the progressive bloc in the House of Representatives, are already calling for the party to use its new powers in Congress to force AI bosses to testify under oath next year.
After the results were clear, Musk deleted a post on X in which he had encouraged voters to back Republican candidates. "Vote red today!" he wrote while the polls were open, but the post was taken down after the scale of the Democrats' victory became clear. Blow to Musk page 2

伊朗战争成为共和党败选长列不满的首要原因
亚历克斯·罗杰斯 —— 华盛顿
美国各地共和党人尚未从败选的阴影中走出,便迅速开始相互指责,明确将失去众议院和参议院席位的责任归咎于特朗普。
他们指责特朗普发动伊朗战争,违背承诺,包括不发动新战争和降低成本的承诺。他们还指责他强行推倒白宫舞厅、从卡塔尔乘坐私人喷气式飞机、在任首年赚取$2,以及最初抵制国会释放杰弗里·埃普斯坦档案的努力。此外,他们还指责特朗普在明尼阿波利斯让联邦执法人员开枪打死美国公民。
美国副总统约翰·德文斯(JD Vance)昨日迅速加入指责行列,将特朗普发动的伊朗战争视为共和党惨败的主要原因。
“我们输掉的原因就是这场战争”,德文斯在X上发长文写道。他表示,接下来几个月共和党内部将充斥“内讧”和“虚假言论”,关于哪里出了问题,包括党的经济议程是否“足够锋利”,但他写道:“everyone knows why we lost. And any honest conversation about where we go from here must start there.”
特朗普前立法事务主任马克·肖特(Marc Short)表示,共和党人“该开始反思了”,并在X上补充道:“很难想像哪一届白宫会比这届更破坏众议院和参议院候选人的机会。”
共和党参议院候选人在北卡罗来纳州、爱荷华州、南卡罗来纳州、得克萨斯州和堪萨斯州落选,这些州自2008、2008、1998、1988和1932年以来,从未选出过民主党参议员。苏珊·科林斯(Susan Collins)在缅因州落选,她曾在参议院服务了30年。
据接近白宫的人士透露,当前的情绪是“糟糕的”和“阴郁的”。众议院和参议院竞选机构的负责人都遭遇了尴尬的失败:理查德·哈德森(Richard Hudson)在北卡罗来纳州失去了自己的众议院席位,蒂姆·斯科特(Tim Scott)在南卡罗来纳州的席位被民主党夺走。
“在拜登执政时期,美国人希望拥有一个为他们服务的经济。然而,他们只得到了一场仓促执行的战争、$40的债务膨胀、一则又一则的丑闻,以及不可预测的关税”,犹他州参议员约翰·柯蒂斯(John Curtis)表示。
“共和党人该回归曾经定义我们的原则性保守价值观,era,而我们已经逐渐放弃了这些价值观。”
一些人表示,他们所熟知的共和党已经结束。共和党捐款人罗伊·贝利(Roy Bailey)表示:“在所有层面上都是巨大的失败。这是对特朗普的完全否决!”他曾为特朗普的2016年竞选和罗德尼·罗德斯(Ron DeSantis)的2024年竞选筹集资金。
“很难说,但美国可能已经结束了”,MAGA活动家劳拉·卢默(Laura Loomer)在X上表示。
其他人则将责任归咎于候选人和特朗普的工作人员。
前特朗普竞选发言人卡罗琳·桑奇尼(Caroline Sunshine)要求首席助理苏西·威尔斯(Susie Wiles)辞职。
“我们被彻底击败了”,她在写给《金融时报》的信中说,“特朗普在2024年建立的联盟今晚被烧毁了……如果她关心共和党的未来,她应该承担责任。”
一位接近白宫的共和党操盘手攻击了党的候选人,并表示:“我认为,当总统离任时,共和党将会死亡。”
党内人事纷争也暴露无遗。
在南卡罗来纳州,拉尔夫·诺曼(Ralph Norman)在共和党初选中与特朗普支持的达琳·格雷厄姆(Dar-line Graham)对决,他向《金融时报》发短信称,他的对手输给了选民,因为“总统和共和党精英试图支撑和强迫南卡罗来纳州选出一个选民反对的候选人”。
前新泽西州州长克里斯蒂·克里斯蒂(Chris Christie)批评在俄亥俄州州长选举中落选的候选人维韦克·拉马斯瓦米(Vivek Ramaswamy),后者曾发布一则广告,其中包含其民主党对手艾米·阿克顿(Amy Acton)的离异母亲。克里斯蒂表示:“这则广告是对维韦克道德败坏中心的X光透视。”克里斯蒂曾在2024年总统初选中与拉马斯瓦米竞争。
堪萨斯州是一个特别敏感的地区,该州近100年没有民主党人赢得参议院席位。参议员罗杰·马歇尔(Roger Marshall)因《纽约时报》曝光其在医疗生涯中曾对数百名病人起诉未结清账单而受损。一位堪萨斯州共和党操盘手表示:“马歇尔是堪萨斯州历史上最差的参议员。”
当然,特朗普坚称自己会赢。他在Truth Social上发文称:
*"I wasn't on the Ballot and if I was, we would have won IN A LAND-SLIDE!"*
美国中期选举
Iran war leads long list of gripes after party suffers historic defeat at polls
ALEX ROGERS — WASHINGTON
Republicans across the US did not take long to turn on each other as it became clear they would lose both the House and Senate.
They blamed Donald Trump for attacking Iran, breaking pledges including those on entering no new wars and lowering costs.
They also blamed him for bulldozing the White House ballroom, taking a jet from Qatar, earning \$2bn in his first year in office, and initially resisting Congress's effort to release the Jeffrey Epstein files. And they blamed Trump for federal agents shooting and killing US citizens in Minneapolis.
US vice-president JD Vance was quick to join the recriminations yesterday, blaming Trump's war in Iran for the Republicans wipeout.
"The reason we lost is the war," Vance wrote in a lengthy post on X.
He said there would be a lot of "infighting" and "gaslighting" among

Republicans in the coming months about what went wrong, including whether the party's economic message was “sharp enough”, but “everyone knows why we lost. And any honest conversation about where we go from here must start there.”
Marc Short, Trump's former director of legislative affairs, said it was “time for Republicans to do some soul-searching,” adding on X: “It’s hard to think of a [White House] that’s sabotaged House and Senate candidates more than this one.”
The party's Senate candidates lost in North Carolina, Iowa, South Carolina, Texas and Kansas – states that had not elected a Democrat to the Senate since 2008, 2008, 1998, 1988 and 1932 respectively. Susan Collins lost in Maine, after serving in the Senate for 30 years.

Dejection: losing Senate candidate Mike Rogers' watch party in Detroit
Those in touch with the White House said the mood was “bad” and “sombre”. The heads of the House and Senate campaign arms both had embarrassing losses: Richard Hudson lost his own House seat in North Carolina and Tim Scott saw his South Carolina seat turn blue.
"After the Biden era, Americans wanted an economy that worked for them. Instead, they received a hastily executed war, headline after headline of scandals, a ballooning \$40tn debt, and unpredictable tariffs," said Utah senator John Curtis.
"It's time for Republicans to return to the principled conservative values that once defined us – and that we've steadily abandoned."
Some said the party as they knew it was done. “Colossal failure at all levels,” said Roy Bailey, who raised money for Trump’s 2016 campaign and Ron DeSantis’s 2024 campaign. “A complete referendum on Trump!”
"I hate to say it, but America is over," said Maga activist Laura Loomer on X.
Others blamed the candidates and Trump's staff.
Caroline Sunshine, a former Trump campaign spokesperson, called for chief of staff Susie Wiles to resign.
"We got wiped out," she wrote to the FT. "The coalition Trump built in 2024 got burned down tonight . . . if she cares about the future of the GOP, she'll take that accountability."
A Republican operative close to the White House attacked the party's candidates and said: "I think the Republican Party is going to be dead, when the president is gone."
Interpersonal rivalries spilled out.
In South Carolina, Ralph Norman, who ran against Trump-endorsed Dar-line Graham in the GOP primary, texted the FT that his opponent lost because “the President along with the Republican Establishment tried to PROP UP and FORCE SC to elect a candidate that the voters revolted against”.
Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie went after losing Ohio gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy for airing an advert featuring the estranged mother of his Democratic opponent Amy Acton. “The ad was an X-ray of Vivek’s rotten moral centre,” said Christie, who ran against Ramaswamy in the 2024 presidential primary.
Kansas, where a Democrat had not won a Senate seat in nearly 100 years, was a particularly sore spot, with Senator Roger Marshall damaged by the New York Times revealing he sued hundreds of patients over outstanding bills during his medical career. “Marshall is the worst senator in the history of Kansas,” said one Kansas GOP operative.
Trump, of course, insisted he would have won. "I wasn't on the Ballot and if I was, we would have won IN A LAND-SLIDE!" he posted on Truth Social.

斯蒂芬妮·芬德莱 —— 奥斯汀
詹姆斯·塔拉里科(James Talarico)在得克萨斯州赢得参议员席位,为民主党在该州30多年来首次赢得参议员选举,不仅对其对手肯·帕克森(Ken Paxton)是一重打击,也对曾斥资数千万加元支持共和党候选人竞选的亿万富翁埃隆·马斯克(Elon Musk)造成重创。
这位亿万富翁自将特斯拉总部迁至该州后,将其财富与得克萨斯州紧密捆绑,此次动用其金融实力反对塔拉里科,并通过X(微博)平台散播关于民主党候选人的阴谋论。
上个月初,在保守派社交媒体盛行的阴谋论中,塔拉里科在竞选活动中失踪后被指“在俄亥俄州被收容”,马斯克发文称:“塔拉里科身上有着严重的问题。”
37岁的塔拉里科回应称:“一个允许一位万亿富翁购买自己美国参议员的政治体系本身有着严重问题。”
周二,选民投票时,马斯克在X上转发了美国总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)的帖子,称塔拉里科为“TalaFREAKO”。
得克萨斯州的参议员选举是全美第二昂贵的选举之一,帕克森与塔拉里科的竞争总花费超过$430百万,其中大部分由共和党人支出,根据广告跟踪公司AdImpact的数据。
马斯克旗下的政治行动委员会(Pac)单独向得克萨斯州共和党参议员竞选捐款$47百万,并在9月向共和党参议院领导基金(Senate Leadership Fund)——共和党参议院的主要超级政治行动委员会——捐款$158百万。
“如果没有埃隆·马斯克的介入,帕克森的竞选将完全缺乏资金支持,”休斯顿莱斯大学政治学教授马克·琼斯(Mark Jones)表示。
在昨天的接受演讲中,塔拉里科说:“我们向每一位亿万级大捐款者发出了信号……向每一位万亿级大捐款者发出了信号。”
自将特斯拉总部迁至得克萨斯州以来,马斯克将其商业帝国的根基扎在这里,建立了自己的“星基”(Starbase),这是一处火箭发射基地,也是SpaceX总部所在地。
在马斯克看来,另一重打击来自得克萨斯州共和党州长格雷格·艾博特(Greg Abbott),艾博特曾得到硅谷的支持,因其宽松的监管政策而闻名,但他被民主党人吉娜·希诺萨(Gina Hinojosa)击败。
希诺萨承诺将在得克萨斯州对AI成为选民关注焦点后,立即对数据中心的发展实施禁令。
马斯克的支持曾是帕克森在共和党参议员约翰·科尼恩(John Cornyn)已经斥资数百万加元支持下的“救命稻草”。
STEPHANIE FINDLAY — AUSTIN
James Talarico's sweeping victory in Texas to score the Democrats' first Senate race win in the state in more than 30 years was a blow not just to his opponent Ken Paxton but also the man who had ploughed tens of millions of dollars into bankrolling the Republican's campaign: Elon Musk.
The billionaire, who has tied his fortune to Texas since relocating Tesla's headquarters to the state, had deployed his financial firepower against Talarico while using his platform X to fan conspiracy theories about the Democrat.
Early last month, amid a conservative social media conspiracy that Talarico had been institutionalised in Ohio after he disappeared from the campaign trail, Musk posted: “There is something deeply wrong with Talarico.”
The 37-year-old candidate hit back, saying: "There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal US Senator."
On Tuesday, as voters headed to the polls, Musk reshared a post on
X from US President Donald Trump referring to Talarico as "TalaFREAKO".
Texas boasted the second most expensive Senate race in the country, with the contest between Paxton and Talarico costing more than \$430mn, the bulk of which was spent by Republicans, according to advertisement-tracking firm AdImpact.
Musk's Pac alone contributed \$47mn to the Republican Senate race in Texas and \$158mn to the Senate Leadership Fund, the Republican Senate's main Super Pac, in September.
“Without Elon Musk coming in, Paxton’s campaign would have been completely bereft of financial backing,” said Mark Jones, a political science professor at Rice University in Houston.
In his acceptance speech yesterday, Talarico said: "We just sent a message to every billionaire mega-donor . . . every trillionaire mega-donor."
Since moving Tesla's base to Texas, Musk has rooted his business empire there, building his own town called Starbase, a rocket launch site that is home to SpaceX headquarters.
In another blow to Musk, Greg Abbott, the state's Republican governor who was backed by Silicon Valley for his light-touch regulation, was defeated by Democrat Gina Hinojosa.
Hinojosa has promised an immediate moratorium on data centre development in the state after AI became a flashpoint for voters.
Musk's backing had been a lifeline for Paxton after Senate Republicans had already spent millions supporting veteran Texas senator John Cornyn in the
「人们对(特朗普威胁第三次竞选)感到如此兴奋,但我们必须让这个人走开」
乔治·斯蒂尔 —— 纽约
在理查德·尼克松和教皇的肖像陪衬下,纽约年轻共和党俱乐部(NYYRC)竞选主席马里奥·尼科莱托(Mario Nicoletto)开玩笑道,尽管周二民主党的“蓝潮”正在形成,但他仍然符合总统的风格。
「共和党的领导人让你们失望了,」尼科莱托对聚集在曼哈顿一栋公寓顶层的年轻保守派成员说,「但我们是党的未来,这有点双关,因为我们既是党的未来,也会办得非常好。」
到晚上10.30分,聚会几乎结束了。随着民主党即将在美国参议院赢得多数席位,并接近众议院多数席位,周二仍在场的NYYRC成员中,几乎所有人都对谁应该负责心知肚明。
「当(前总统唐纳德·特朗普)第二次当选时,我感到兴奋,」21岁的古典音乐家纳森·谢泼德(Nathan Shepherd)说,他来自中西部,去年加入了NYYRC。「这让我感到这是一个历史性的时刻,可以扭转我和许多人注意到的许多低效、邪恶和过度行为。」
「但这种效果消退后,人们发现承诺没有兑现。人们感到一种深深的欺骗感。」
甚至是NYYRC高层成员也被特朗普的不可预测性折磨得筋疲力尽。
「人们对(特朗普威胁第三次竞选)感到如此兴奋,但我们必须让这个人走开,」NYYRC对应秘书亚历克斯·温特斯(Alexis Winters)说,「特朗普在当时出现时非常有用,也是必要的。我仍然对他的总统任期感到满意,但我也准备好迎接新人。」
NYYRC目前拥有近2,000名成员,并将自己描述为「纽约无所畏惧保守主义的核心」。史蒂夫·班农(Steve Bannon,特朗普首任总统时期的首席战略师)和改革英国党(Reform UK)领袖尼格尔·法拉奇(Nigel Farage)曾在2024年出席该俱乐部的年度黑色晚宴。特朗普在前一年曾作为主题演讲嘉宾。
今年7月,NYYRC因《纽约杂志》指控其成为种族主义和性别歧视的温床而受到关注。俱乐部否认了这些指控。
像支持的共和党一样,NYYRC也似乎因与左翼政治通常相关的内部争斗而日益分裂。该党与以色列政府的关系以及特朗普政府处理杰弗里·埃普斯坦(Jeffrey Epstein)档案的方式「是裂痕的核心」,根据NYYRC九月期刊的一篇文章所述。
同一篇文章还特别提到「民主党邀请的第三世界群体,他们不顾贫困状况,尽可能多地生育孩子」。
几乎所有与《金融时报》交谈的NYYRC成员都表示,他们的年长同志们已经失去了真正保守主义的方向。几人补充说,特别是伊朗战争,证明是一个巨大的错误。
NYYRC主席斯蒂法诺·福尔特(Stefano Forte)——今年访问匈牙利,在该国选举前支持右翼总理维克多·奥尔班——在周一晚些时候在X(微博)上发文,批评「党内的新保守主义者和好战分子」,随着民主党的崛起,这一批评变得更加明显。

'People got so excited [when Trump threatened to run for a third term], but we've got to let this guy go'
GEORGE STEER — NEW YORK
Flanked by portraits of Richard Nixon and the Pope, New York Young Republican Club campaign chair Mario Nicoletto cracked a joke befitting of the president even as Tuesday's blue wave gathered force.
“Your leaders in the Republican Party have failed you,” Nicoletto told a thinning crowd of baby-faced conservatives gathered on the top floor of a Manhattan townhouse. “But we are the future of the party, which is a little double entendre because we are the future of the party and we also throw great parties.”
By 10.30pm, the party was all but over. With the Democrats on the cusp of securing a majority in the US Senate, and closing in on the House of Representatives, several of the NYYRC members still standing late on Tuesday seemed in little doubt about who was to blame.
“I was excited when [President Donald] Trump was elected a second time. It felt like a historic moment to flip a lot of the inefficiencies and evils and excesses that me and many others had noticed,” said Nathan Shepherd, a 21-year-old classical musician from the Midwest who joined the NYYRC last year.
"After that effect wore off, there has been less to hold on to as promises aren't kept. People feel a deep sense of deceit."
Even members of the NYYRC's top brass seemed worn down by Trump's unpredictability.
“People got so excited [when Trump threatened to run for a third term], but we’ve got to let this guy go,” said Alexis Winters, NYYRC corresponding secretary. “Trump was very, very useful and he was necessary at the time he came around. I am still happy with his presidency, but I am also ready for someone new.”
The NYYRC today boasts almost 2,000 members and describes itself as “the vital heart of unapologetic conservatism in New York”. Steve Bannon, Trump’s chief strategist in his first term, and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, attended the club’s annual black-tie gala in 2024. Trump was a keynote speaker the year before.

Chair Mario Nicoletto addresses the NYYRC on Tuesday night
In July, the NYYRC attracted scrutiny after New York magazine alleged that it had become a hotbed of racism and misogyny. The club denied the allegations.
Like the Republican Party it supports, the NYYRC also appears increasingly divided by the sort of internecine squabbling usually associated with leftwing politics. The party's relationship with the Israeli government and the Trump administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files "are at the core of the rift", according to an article in the NYYRC's September periodical.
The same article went on to single out the “third world hordes invited in by the Democrats [who] do not allow their poor financial situation to get in the way of having as many children as possible”.
Almost all of the NYYRC members who spoke to the FT said their older ideological compatriots had lost track of what it meant to be truly conservative. Several added that the war in Iran, in particular, had proved to be a colossal mistake.
NYYRC president Stefano Forte — who this year visited Hungary to endorse rightwing prime minister Viktor Orbán ahead of the country's elections — early yesterday posted on X criticism of the “neocons and warmongers in the party” as it became clear that the Democrats were in the ascendancy.

詹姆斯·波利蒂 —— 华盛顿
当晚结束时,唐纳德·特朗普只能在社交媒体上抱怨他刚刚遭遇的惨败。他在Truth Social上写道:“我没有在选票上,如果我有的话,我们会以 IN A LANDSLIDE 获胜!”
美国总统在之前的中期选举中曾遭遇过惨败,从乔治·W·布什在2006年的“惨败”到巴拉克·奥巴马在2010年的“彻底失败”。但特朗普及其共和党在2026年的惨败属于另一个级别——全国各地对总统、其盟友及其议程的残酷拒绝。
关键州和选区轻松回归民主党,而共和党在南部深度保守地区和曾被视为不可动摇的农村地区也遭遇了重创。
这位80岁的房地产大亨兼总统,在过去十多年主导美国政治,似乎已经与选民失去了联系。
“残酷的一夜!”前特朗普幕僚、华盛顿顾问公司Mercury的布莱恩·兰扎说,“中期选举本来就很艰难,但这次没有人预料到会这样。”
“我从未见过这样的一夜,”费城民主党人布伦丹·博伊尔说,他将于1月成为众议院预算委员会主席,“没有一位总统在我的有生之年会遭到如此全面的否决。”
共和党人愤怒不已。保守评论员埃里克·埃里克森(来自佐治亚州)宣称:“血腥屠杀。”共和党人会说这是由于“伊朗”和“油价”。确实如此,但远不止这些。
他列举了从“腐败”到“不称职”、“与俄罗斯和睦相处”、“过度激进的驱逐行动”以及白宫大厅翻新的奢华等一切问题。
特朗普曾试图通过9月达拉斯(德克萨斯州)的明星云集的大会来拯救共和党,并在最近几周频繁访问政治脆弱的州。但他可能最终雪上加霜,未能专注于动员大多数选民的生活成本关切,而是转移到华盛顿的建设项目和其支持的候选人的外貌等议题上。
总统及其盟友似乎已经忘记了如何在2024年赢回白宫和全面控制国会。特朗普曾承诺镇压通胀,每加仑汽油仅需 $2,房贷利率3%。但他去年4月发起的贸易战动摇了这些目标,推高了进口成本,并使通胀保持在不舒适的高位。
真正的转折点出现在特朗普发动对伊朗的战争时,导致能源价格飙升,引发选民的愤怒。
“每个月,生活成本都在增加。
JAMES POLITI — WASHINGTON
By the end of the evening, Donald Trump could only rail on social media about the crushing rout he had just suffered. "I wasn't on the Ballot and if I was, we would have won IN A LANDSLIDE!" he wrote on Truth Social.
US presidents have been beaten badly in previous midterm elections, from the “thumping” of George W Bush in 2006 to the “shellacking” of Barack Obama in 2010. But the humbling of Trump and his Republican Party in 2026 was in a category of its own – a savage rejection from across the country of the president, his allies and his agenda.
Battleground states and districts easily swung back to the Democrats, while Republicans suffered bruising defeats on their home turf in deeply conservative parts of the south and rural areas where they had seemed untouchable.
More than anything, the 80-year-old real estate mogul turned president who has dominated US politics for more than a decade seemed to have lost touch with the electorate.
"Brutal night!!" said Bryan Lanza, a former Trump aide now at Mercury, a consultancy in Washington. "Midterms were always going to be rough but this isn't what anyone expected."
"I have never seen a night like this," said Brendan Boyle, a Philadelphia Democrat who will become chair of the House budget committee in January. "No president has been so fully repudiated like this in my lifetime."
Republicans were fuming. “Blood-bath,” declared Erick Erickson, the conservative commentator from Georgia. “The GOP will say it is just Iran and gas prices. It is that. But so much more.”
He listed everything from “corruption” to “incompetence”, “playing nice with Russia”, “overly aggressive deportations” and the extravagant White House ballroom renovation.
Trump had tried to rescue his party with a star-studded convention in Dallas, Texas, in September and near-daily visits to politically vulnerable states in recent weeks. But he may have ultimately made the situation worse, failing to focus on the cost-of-living concerns that animated most voters and digressing on to issues such as building projects in Washington and the physical appearance of his preferred candidates.
The president and his allies seemed to have lost sight of how they won back the White House and full control of Congress in 2024. Trump ran on a mandate of quashing inflation, promising \$2-a-gallon gas prices and 3 per cent mortgages. But his “liberation day” trade war in April last year undermined those goals, driving up the cost of imports and keeping inflation uncomfortably high.
The real turning point came when Trump launched the war with Iran, leading to a surge in energy prices that sparked fury among voters.
"Every month, it costs more to live,"
杰夫·罗里克(Jeff Rohrick),54岁,在一家非营利组织工作时表示:“比如,情况必须恶化到什么程度?底线在哪里?”
长期借贷成本也在上升,30年期抵押贷款基准利率飙升至7%以上。在选举前夕,特朗普执政期间的平均汽油价格首次超过拜登执政期间的水平,达到每加仑3.46加元。
“目前汽油价格实在是太高了,”周二傍晚在爱荷华州布恩(Boone)的一家仓库操作员查德·库格尔(Chad Kugel),46,在准备投票时说。
宾夕法尼亚州的建筑专家大卫·赖格利(David Wrigley),支持在关键选区获胜的民主党候选人,表示:“特朗普是一个深受憎恶的人物。他极具分裂性。而且,在他执政期间,腐败比这个国家历史上见过的都严重。”
然而,特朗普及其政府官员并没有重视选民的担忧,而是将其视为民主党的骗局,并声称美国正处于经济“黄金时代”。
“特朗普总统承诺,他将在第一天结束通胀,”美国企业研究所(American Enterprise Institute)经济政策研究主任迈克尔·斯特雷恩(Michael Strain)说,“但他没有推行可负担力度议程,而是发动了一场贸易战,导致价格上涨。然后他轻视选民对生活成本的担忧。”
特朗普在中间选举候选人的选择上也出现失误,利用他对共和党政治的巨大影响力支持那些对自己更忠诚,但在大选中不具竞争力的人物。他大力支持推翻得克萨斯州现任共和党参议员约翰·科尼恩(John Cornyn),改而支持该州争议性的检察长肯·帕克森(Ken Paxton),但帕克森输掉了这场选举。
在南卡罗来纳州林赛·格拉姆(Lindsey Graham)去世后,特朗普支持他的妹妹达琳(Darline),但她的竞选失败,民主党也赢得了这一参议院席位。
总统试图将反对派污名化为受极左派控制的社会主义者,包括在密歇根州参议院选举中,进步民主党候选人阿卜杜勒·艾尔-赛义德(Abdul El-Sayed)在投票中,也未能成功。
“这些只是闹剧,而闹剧能卖座,”底特律选民托米·哈里斯(Tommy Harris)在密歇根州参议院选举的激烈攻击中评论道,“我想看看他(艾尔-赛义德)能做什么。”
更传统的共和党人,包括缅因州资深参议员苏珊·科林斯(Susan Collins)和宾夕法尼亚州温和派共和党人布莱恩·菲茨帕特里克(Brian Fitzpatrick),也在反特朗普情绪的冲击下落马,尽管他们试图与总统保持距离。
周二夜间,白宫官员试图展现出顽强的态度,并认为如果没有特朗普,共和党的结果将会更糟。
“无论今天的结果如何,特朗普总统坚持抵制激进左派的决心只会变得更加坚定。做好准备吧,”一名官员说。
在选举日前,特朗普政府试图影响中间选举,从威胁起诉选举官员到提起诉讼干预某些选举。但结果如此压倒性,以至于特朗普无法声称选举被操纵。“我绝对愿意接受这些结果,”他昨天说。
Brendan Boyle, Democrat
said Jeff Rohrick, 54, who works for a non-profit group. "Like, how bad does it have to get? What's the line?"
Longer-term borrowing costs have also risen, with the benchmark 30-year mortgage rate surging above 7 per cent. On the eve of the election, the average petrol price under Trump finally surpassed the level seen under the Joe Biden administration, hitting \$3.46 a gallon.
"It is just way too much for gas right now," said Chad Kugel, 46, a warehouse operator in Boone, Iowa, as he prepared to vote on Tuesday evening.
David Wrigley, a construction expert in Pennsylvania who supported the winning Democratic candidate in a swing district, said: "Trump's a hated figure. He has been so divisive. And there is been more corruption under him than this country's ever seen."
But rather than taking heed of voters' worries, Trump and other administration officials dismissed them as a Democrat hoax and claimed the US was living in an economic "golden age".
“President Trump promised that he would end inflation on day one,” said Michael Strain, director of economic policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think-tank. “But instead of pursuing an affordability agenda, the president launched a trade war that increased prices. And then belittled voters’ concerns about the cost of living.”
Trump also stumbled in his choices of midterm candidates, using his vast sway over Republican politics to back figures more loyal to him than they were competitive in a general election. He made a huge effort to oust John Cornyn, the sitting Texas Republican senator, in favour of Ken Paxton, the state's controversial attorney-general, who lost the seat.
After the death of Lindsey Graham in South Carolina, Trump supported his sister Darline, but her campaign fell flat, handing that Senate seat to the Democrats as well.
The president's efforts to tarnish the opposition as socialists beholden to the far left, including in the Michigan Senate race where progressive Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed was on the ballot, also failed.
"It is just drama, and drama sells," Tommy Harris, a Detroit voter, said of the bitter attacks during the Michigan Senate race. "I want to see what he's gonna do," he said of El-Sayed.
More traditional Republicans, including Maine veteran senator Susan Collins and moderate Pennsylvania Republican Brian Fitzpatrick, were swept under by the backlash against Trump, even after they tried to distance themselves from the president.
At the White House on Tuesday night, officials sought to project defiance and argued that without Trump, the result would have been worse for Republicans.
“Regardless of how today plays out, President Trump’s resolve to stop the radical left is only going to become stronger. Buckle up,” one official said.
Before election day, the Trump administration attempted to influence the midterms, from threatening election officials with prosecutions to filing lawsuits seeking to intervene in certain races. But the result was so overwhelming that Trump could not say the vote was rigged. “I am absolutely willing to accept those results,” he said yesterday.

美国暂无计划对伊朗实施打击,唐纳德·特朗普表示,在中期选举后,他对与伊斯兰共和国的对峙现状感到满意,尽管暗示如果必要,他准备升级冲突。
在周二与《金融时报》的电话采访中,美国总统表示,他对当前与伊朗的对峙状态感到满意——尽管他同时表示,如果需要,美国准备好发动战争。
“看起来我们正在得到我们想要的一切”,特朗普在六分钟的电话采访中说。
当被问及以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡强烈暗示本周将对伊朗发动攻击时,特朗普说:“我准备好了,我们准备好了。如果需要,我们随时待命,但可能没有必要。”
总统的这些言论出现在全国范围内国会选举投票结束前几小时,在这次选举中,特朗普的共和党因选民对通胀和燃油价格上涨的担忧而遭受重创,而燃油价格上涨则是他决定对伊朗开战后的结果。
美国与伊朗的谈判希望令油价下降。但周二,美国汽油价格在任何政府任期内创下了新的平均高位。
昨天,副总统约翰·德文斯(JD Vance)表示,战争是共和党惨败的罪魁祸首。“总统自己昨晚也这么说了”,德文斯在X(微博)上写道。
周一,美国对伊朗发动空袭,在霍尔木兹海峡的吉什岛(Qeshm Island)目标上空实施打击,华盛顿称这是为了保护中东地区的美国军事资产而采取的防御性行动。
特朗普声称,中期选举后能源价格将大幅下降,并告诉《金融时报》,现在通过霍尔木兹海峡(中东原油出口的关键瓶颈)的石油数量比战争前更多,而美国对伊朗港口的封锁正成功扼杀了德黑兰的经济。
“这是一个绝妙的局面”,特朗普说。
美国“并非真正”与伊朗交战,他补充道。“如果你仔细想想,我们很久没有真正与他们交战了,可能1,000lb,甚至更久。”
特朗普进一步表示:“我不认为我们正处于像乌克兰那样的战争,或者像第一次世界大战、第二次世界大战那样的战争。”
美国领导人强调,他不会提前透露任何攻击计划,但表示关于伊朗约1,000lb富集铀储备——他称之为“核尘埃”——的未来,正在进行间接谈判。
“尽管这些铀储藏在数百吨岩石下,但我认为它们不会一直存在在那里”,特朗普说。“因此,这是我们讨论的内容之一。但你知道,我们正在进行讨论,看看最终会如何发展。”
特朗普在与《金融时报》的采访中表现出低调,这表明一个总统,至少暂时,将注意力从美国总司令的职责上转移开来。他回答了关于伊朗的问题,但更倾向于讨论他声称将取得共和党中期选举胜利的问题。“每一次(竞选集会)都是全垒打”,他告诉《金融时报。“它们都爆满,有成千上万的人在大型体育馆外排队,甚至无法进入。”
他还补充说,他对乌克兰-俄罗斯和平谈判取得进展感到乐观。但特朗普的乐观态度并未得到乌克兰谈判代表的回应。
政策议程
Mideast conflict
EDWARD LUCE — WASHINGTON
The US has no immediate plans to strike Iran, Donald Trump has said, as the president played down speculation that he was preparing to escalate his conflict with the Islamic republic after the midterm elections.
In an interview with the FT on Tuesday, the US president suggested he was content with the state of the stand-off with Iran – even as he signalled he was prepared for more war if necessary.
"We seem to be getting everything we want," Trump said in a six-minute telephone interview.
Asked about strong hints by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that there would be an attack this week, Trump said: “I’m ready, we’re ready. We’re locked and loaded if we need to go, but there may be no reason for it.”
The comments from the president came hours before polls closed across the country in congressional elections in which Trump's party suffered heavy losses amid voter anxiety about inflation and the surge in fuel prices that followed his decision to go war with Iran.
Yesterday, vice-president JD Vance said that the war was to blame for the Republicans' wipeout. "The president himself said so last night," Vance wrote on X.
On Monday, the US launched air strikes on Iran, hitting targets on Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz in what Washington described as a defensive move to protect American military assets in the Middle East.
Trump has claimed energy prices will fall sharply after the midterms and told the FT there was now more oil passing through the Strait of Hormuz — the critical chokepoint for crude supplies out of the Gulf — than before the war and a US blockade on Iran's ports was successfully stifling Tehran's economy.
"It's a brilliant situation," Trump said.
The US was not “really” fighting Iran, he added. “If you think about it, we haven’t really had a war with them in a long time, six months, maybe more.”
Trump added: “I don’t consider that we’re in war like Ukraine, wars like World War I, World War II.”
The US leader underlined that he would not share any attack plans in advance but said indirect negotiations with Iran about the fate of its roughly 1,000lb stockpile of enriched uranium – “nuclear dust”, as he calls it – were continuing.
“Even though it’s under hundreds of tons of rock, I would say that I’m not happy that it will be there,” Trump said. “So it’s one of the things that we do talk to them about. But you know, we’re having discussions, and we’ll see how that all works out.”
Hopes for a breakthrough in US-Iran talks have sent oil prices lower. But on Tuesday, US petrol prices hit a new average high under any administration.
Trump's subdued tone in his interview with the FT suggested a president whose attention has shifted, at least momentarily, from his job as US commander-in-chief. He took questions on Iran but preferred to focus on what he said would be a Republican midterm victory. "Every one of [his election rallies] was a home run," he told the FT. "They were packed. They had thousands and thousands of people outside of large arenas and couldn't even get in."
He also added he was optimistic that Ukraine-Russia peace talks were making ground. Trump's optimism is not echoed by Ukrainian negotiators.
Policy agenda
乔·米勒 —— 华盛顿
在民主党两年观望特朗普(Donald Trump)致富、发动战争并实施大规模关税政策后,该党现在重新掌权,并准备行动。
海克姆·杰弗里斯(Hakeem Jeffries)承诺在新一届美国国会于1月3日宣誓就职后的100小时内提出议程。
“我们将集中精力让生活变得更加负担得起”,纽约众议员杰弗里斯表示。民主党将在“民主党支持一致的领域”提出立法,例如撤销医德会(Medicaid)削减、应对关税,并尝试结束特朗普总统发动的伊朗战争。
然而,即使民主党掌控参议院和众议院,他们提出的立法也可能遭到总统的阻挠。特朗普上周表示,如果共和党在任何一个议会机构失去权力,他将“否决一切”。周二,他发布了一张印有“Veto”(否决)字样的红色MAGA帽照片。
一些法案可能甚至不会送到特朗普的桌面上,如果他在国会山的盟友动用“滥用程序”(filibuster),即在100名参议员组成的议会中,需要60名以上的超级多数批准大多数法律。
进步派民主党人主张采用“核选项”(nuclear option)来废除滥用程序。同时,民主党内部对是否提出大胆的改革立法,还是专注于可能获得跨党派支持的法案,存在更广泛的分歧。
“我认为现在不是提出总统(特朗普)必然会否决的事项的时候”,夏威夷参议员布莱恩·沙茨(Brian Schatz)上月表示。“这……是浪费精力。”
但德克萨斯州民主党众议员格雷格·卡萨(Greg Casar),他领导众议院进步派小组(Congressional Progressive Caucus),警告民主党必须“通过足够强大的法案来真正解决生活成本危机”。
接近进步派小组(CPC)的人士表示,他们认为一些缓解负担的立法可能获得共和党同僚甚至总统的支持。他们指出今年一项禁止私募基金购买单户住宅的跨党派住房法案获得成功。
新民主党联盟(New Democrat Coalition)主席布拉德·施奈德(Brad Schneider)告诉《金融时报》,他也支持提出可能遭到总统否决的立法。他说:“我们必须展示……我们认真对待(美国人的)关切,我们致力于改善他们的生活。”
民主党在如何使用监督权力方面达成了更多共识,包括发布传票和利用权力强制证人宣誓作证。
马里兰州民主党众议员杰米·拉斯金(Jamie Raskin),他很可能将领导强大的众议院司法委员会,已表示他将调查与特朗普政府达成交易的律师事务所、总统对捐款者的赦免,以及特朗普加密帝国背后的“自利行为”,以及其他问题。
拉斯金上周还警告石油公司,他们可能因协助特朗普与俄罗斯达成释放柴油储备的协议而承担责任,并致信人工智能公司(包括安索普和OpenAI),要求他们在发现安全事故后48小时内报告。
加利福尼亚州众议员罗伯特·加西亚(Robert Garcia),他很可能将领导同样强大的众议院监督委员会,上月告诉《金融时报》,他将“积极”追查“特朗普犯罪家族”,他们的商业伙伴和亿万富翁盟友。他还暗示将调查特朗普巨额捐款人埃隆·马斯克(Elon Musk)。
Aaron Cutler,霍根·洛维尔斯·卡德瓦勒律师事务所的合伙人,表示他预计将会看到“对企业和政府机构发出大量传票”,以及“与行政部门的对峙”。尽管民主党在调查特朗普政府内部腐败上存在共识,但许多人希望拓展监督议程。埃文·罗思·史密斯(Evan Roth Smith),一位民主党战略家,表示:“民主党需要做一些能引起关注的事情……包括对那些在消费者认知中站在错误一侧的企业和公司采取行动。”他建议将美国超市的首席执行官传唤到国会面前,就不断上涨的价格进行质询。
民主党内最具分歧的问题在于是否要再次弹劾特朗普——他明年将年满81岁,且根据宪法无法再竞选第三任总统。
昨天,杰弗里斯(Hakeem Jeffries)敦促党内同僚将重点放在“可负担性”而非对特朗普政府的报复上。他在MS Now上表示:“美国人民不希望我们报复,他们希望我们把事情办好。”

JOE MILLER — WASHINGTON
After Democrats spent two years watching from the sidelines as Donald Trump enriched himself and his family, started wars and imposed sweeping tariffs, the party has power again – and is ready to use it.
Hakeem Jeffries has pledged to outline an agenda within 100 hours of being sworn in as House Speaker in the new US Congress on January 3.
“We’re going to aggressively focus on making life more affordable,” the New York congressman said. His party would introduce legislation in “areas where we know there is uniform Democratic support”, such as reversing Medicaid cuts, tackling tariffs and attempting to end President Donald Trump’s Iran war.
Yet even with control of both the Senate and the House, legislation Democrats introduce could be thwarted by the president, who said last week he would “veto everything” if Republicans lost power in either chamber. On Tuesday, he posted an image of a red Maga hat with the word “Veto” emblazoned on it.
Some bills might not even make it to Trump's desk if his allies on Capitol Hill deploy the filibuster, which in effect makes it necessary for a supermajority of 60 senators in the 100-member chamber to sign off on most laws.
Progressive Democrats have argued for deploying the “nuclear option” to abolish the filibuster. Meanwhile, there is broader disagreement among Democrats over whether to introduce bold, reforming legislation or focus on bills that could win bipartisan support.
“I do not think it is time to propose things that the president [is] guaranteed to veto,” Hawaii Senator Brian Schatz said last month. “That is . . . wasted energy.”
But Greg Casar, a Democratic representative from Texas who leads the Congressional Progressive Caucus in the House, has warned that Democrats “must pass bills powerful enough to actually tackle the cost of living crisis”.
People close to the CPC — whose members also want to end military aid to Israel and restore foreign aid spending — said they believed some affordability legislation could win support from Republican colleagues and even the president. They pointed to the success of a bipartisan housing bill that banned private equity from buying single-family homes this year.
Brad Schneider, chair of the moderate New Democrat Coalition, told the FT he also supported introducing legislation that could be vetoed by the president. "We have to demonstrate . . . that we take [Americans'] concerns seriously, we are committed to making their lives better," he said.
There is more agreement among
Democrats on how the party should use its oversight powers, including issuing subpoenas and using their power to compel witnesses to testify under oath.
Jamie Raskin, a Maryland Democrat who is likely to lead the powerful House judiciary committee, has signalled he will investigate law firms that made deals with the Trump administration, the president's pardoning of donors and the “self-dealing” behind Trump’s crypto empire, among other issues.

Hakeem Jeffries said Americans 'want us to get things done'
Raskin also last week put oil companies “on notice” that they may be held liable for facilitating Trump’s deal with Russia to release diesel reserves, and wrote to AI companies, including Anthropic and OpenAI, demanding they commit to reporting safety incidents within 48 hours of detection.
California representative Robert Garcia, who will probably lead the similarly powerful House oversight committee, told the FT last month that he would be “aggressive” in pursuing the “Trump crime family”, their business partners and billionaire allies. He also suggested he would investigate Trump megadonor Elon Musk.
Aaron Cutler, a partner at Hogan Lovells Cadwalader, said he expected to see “a lot of subpoenas” issued to corporations and government agencies, as well as “stand-offs with the executive branch”. While there is consensus among Democrats over investigating corruption within the Trump administration, many want a broader oversight agenda. “Democrats need to do things that get some attention . . . including going after corporations and companies that are on the wrong side of consumer perceptions,” said Evan Roth Smith, a Democratic strategist.
He suggested hauling the chief executives of American supermarkets in front of Congress over rising prices.
The most divisive issue among Democrats is whether to pursue another impeachment of Trump – who turns 81 next year and is constitutionally barred from running for a third term.
Yesterday, Jeffries urged his party to focus on affordability rather than retribution against the Trump administration. “The American people don’t want us to get even,” he told MS Now. “They want us to get things done.” |

Democrats gained ground in the vast majority of House districts across the country, picking up votes in both urban and rural areas alike.
With most of the votes counted, the average House district recorded a 12-point swing towards the Democrats when compared with the presidential election result in 2024.
Areas where Republicans had gained under Donald Trump in 2024 swung decisively back the other way, enabling the Democrats to flip dozens of seats.
The largest swings of more than 40 percentage points were recorded in districts in Texas and New Jersey, especially in areas where Hispanic voters made up a large share of the population. | 34 seats not up for election | 20 | 51 to win | 13 | 31 seats not up for election |
这场选举带来了历史性的“蓝潮”,民主党在全国各地的共和党传统高地中获胜,选民因特朗普政府在伊朗战争中推高的汽油价格而惩罚了其执政。
在投票结束后两小时内,民主党就夺取了参议院和众议院的控制权。
与两年前的总统选举结果相比,民主党参议院候选人大幅增加了选票份额。
在得克萨斯州、南卡罗来纳州和堪萨斯州——这些州在2024年特朗普以双位数优势获胜——民主党取得了巨大进展,标志着共和党在曾被视为深红色的州份中支持率急剧下滑。
根据NBC新闻的民调数据,民主党的进展涵盖了几乎所有族群,党在几乎所有年龄段的选民中都增加了支持率。
年龄在18至29岁之间的年轻选民转向民主党的幅度更大,其中72%的选民投了民主党票,较两年前的总统选举上升了18个百分点(从54%上升至72%)。
所有调查的族群也都向民主党靠拢。拉丁裔选民的支持率——他们在2024年特朗普获胜中向共和党转变发挥了关键作用——从51%上升至62%。

美国中期选举
海外反应
The elections delivered a historic "blue wave" as Democrats swept to victory in Republican strongholds across the country, with voters punishing the Trump administration for soaring gas prices stoked by the president's war in Iran.
Within two hours of polls closing, the Democrats took control of both the Senate and the House.
Democratic Senate candidates greatly increased their share of the vote when compared with the presidential election result two years ago.
In Texas, South Carolina and Kansas
— all states Trump won by double-digit margins in 2024 — Democrats recorded huge gains, marking a massive deterioration in Republican support in states once considered deeply red.
The Democrats' gains were broad based, with the party increasing its support among almost all demographic groups, according to exit poll data from NBC News.
Younger voters swung more than older voters, with 72 per cent of people aged 18 to 29 voting for Democrats, up from 54 per cent in the presidential election two years ago.
All racial groups surveyed also moved towards the Democrats. Support among Latino voters — whose shift towards Republicans had played a pivotal role in Trump's victory in 2024 — increased from 51 to 62 per cent.

欧洲政治家称特朗普在中期选举中的惨败为重塑紧张的跨大西洋关系并结束伊朗战争提供了机会
《金融时报》记者报道
欧洲政治家们称赞特朗普在美国中期选举中的惨败为缓和紧张的跨大西洋关系提供了机会,西班牙首相佩德罗·桑切斯(Pedro Sánchez),作为欧盟领导人中特朗普最激烈的批评者之一,称赞这一结果为“右翼浪潮的崩溃”。
特朗普第二任期的前两年严重损害了与欧洲的关系,其对北约的反复态度、对布鲁塞尔的贸易战以及在乌克兰战争中对俄罗斯的亲俄立场颠覆了欧洲大陆数十年来的跨大西洋共识。
来自欧盟中间派和左翼政党的政治家们欢呼民主党的胜利,该胜利将特朗普的对手送上国会控制权。然而,他们对这一胜利对外交政策的潜在影响意见不一,警告欧洲不应放松减少对华盛顿依赖的努力。
桑切斯表示:“右翼浪潮不再增长。它正在崩溃。”
桑切斯在X(微博 / 推特)上发文称:“昨天,美国社会投票反对那些只会让人们更贫穷的政策。反对仇恨。反对男权主义。反对气候变化否认和精英的特权。”
英国首相安迪·伯恩汉姆(Andy Burnham)表示,选举结果意味着“世界现在有机会”专注于结束美国与伊朗的战争以及应对高昂的生活成本和生活成本压力。
他说道:“在中东冲突得到解决之前,我无法缓解人们的生活成本压力。”
德国中右派总理弗里德里希·梅尔茨(Friedrich Merz)表示,他预计特朗普将继续通过行政命令推行政策。他说道:“特朗普在过去两年一直通过绕过国会来治理国家;为什么现在会有所不同呢?”
德国财政部长拉尔斯·克林贝尔(Lars Klingbeil),同时也是德国社会民主党(SPD)的协同领导人,表示“右翼民粹主义”和“专制势力”在美国中期选举中遭到失败。
Continent hopes for reset of fractious transatlantic ties and end to Iran war
FT REPORTERS
European politicians have hailed Donald Trump's sweeping defeat in the US midterm elections as a chance to moderate fractious transatlantic relations, with Spain's prime minister cheering the results as the “crumbling” of a “far-right wave”.
The US president's first two years of his second term have deeply undermined relations with Europe, as his mercurial attitude to Nato, trade war against Brussels and pro-Russian stance towards the war in Ukraine upended decades of transatlantic beliefs on the continent.
Politicians from across the EU's centrist and leftwing parties cheered the Democratic victory that hands Trump's opponents control of Congress. However, they were split over its potential impact on foreign policy, cautioning that Europe should not temper efforts to de-risk its reliance on Washington.
Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, who has been Trump's most vocal critic among EU leaders, presented the Republican defeat as a positive sign for his own fight for re-election this month.
"The far-right wave is no longer growing," he said. "It is crumbling."
Sánchez wrote on X: "Yesterday, American society voted against policies that only make people poorer. Against hatred. Against machismo. Against climate change denial and the privileges of the elites.”
UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham said the election results meant “the world has an opportunity now” to focus on an end to the US-Iran war and tackling high costs of living.
"I can't get people's cost of living pressures down until the conflict in the Middle East is resolved," Burnham said.
Germany's centre-right chancellor, Friedrich Merz, said he expected Trump to continue conducting policy by executive orders. "Trump has spent the last two years governing by bypassing Congress; why should things be any different now?" he said.
Germany's finance minister Lars
Klingbeil, who is also the co-leader of the country's Social Democrats (SPD), said “rightwing populists” and “authoritarian forces” had been defeated in the US midterms.
他表示,他的国家将向美国民主党伸出援手,同时也会与共和党内的“理性力量”合作,以废除贸易关税、停止华盛顿对伊朗的“荒谬战争”,并帮助乌克兰抵抗俄罗斯的侵略。
欧洲社会党主席斯特凡·洛夫文(Stefan Löfven)补充称,这一结果是“让美国民主回归正轨的机会……国会现在有了任务:2. 监督、立法并对总统进行问责。”
德国国防部长博里斯·皮斯托里乌斯(Boris Pistorius),也是德国社会民主党(SPD)的成员,向民主党表示“祝贺”,但承诺柏林将“继续与(特朗普)政府保持密切合作,并以信任为基础”。
自特朗普再次上台以来,欧洲北约盟友已经大幅增加了国防开支,并加大了对依赖美国的关键能力的投资,例如军事卫星和远程武器。欧盟还与非西方国家签署了一系列新的贸易协定,并试图在特定领域实施“购买欧洲”政策。
德国外交部长约翰·瓦德富尔(Johann Wadephul)表示,他“对两党在国会中就如何支持乌克兰进行更多对话感到有些乐观”。
但特朗普驻北约大使警告不要对这种变化抱有期望。
“美国的外交政策没有改变。我们也不应该指望在中期选举中会有所改变,7 2023”,马修·惠特克(Matthew Whitaker)说。
亨利·福伊(Henry Foy)在布鲁塞尔、劳拉·皮泰尔(Laura Pitel)和安妮-西尔维娜·沙萨尼(Anne-Sylvaine Chassany)在柏林、巴尼·乔普森(Barney Jopson)在马德里和大卫·谢帕德(David Sheppard)在伦敦

He said his country would reach out to US Democrats, as well as to the “reasonable forces” in the Republican Party, to get rid of trade tariffs, stop Washington’s “nonsensical war in Iran” and help Ukraine against Russian aggression.
Stefan Löfven, president of the Party of European Socialists, added that the result was “a chance to return American democracy to normal . . . Congress now has a mandate to do its job: to scrutinise, legislate and hold the president to account.”
Germany's defence minister Boris Pistorius, also a member of Germany's centre-left SPD party, offered “congratulations to the Democrats” but pledged that Berlin would “continue to work closely and in a spirit of trust with the [Trump] administration”.
Since Trump returned to office, European Nato allies have drastically increased defence spending and investment in key capabilities for which they rely on the US, such as military satellites and long-range weapons. The EU has also signed a range of new trade deals with non-western countries and is seeking to implement “Buy European” policies in specific areas.
Germany's foreign minister Johann Wadephul said he was “somewhat optimistic that there will now be more talks between the two parties in Congress in terms of what can be done to support Ukraine”.
But Trump's ambassador to Nato cautioned against those expecting a shift.
"The foreign policy of the United States has not changed. And we shouldn't expect that it would change in a midterm election," said Matthew Whitaker.

亚历克斯·罗杰斯(Alex Rogers)——华盛顿
民主党通过在一系列传统共和党强州获胜,赢得了美国参议院的控制权,为华盛顿带来了新鲜血液。
被认为是潜在总统候选人阵营的民主党新一代领导人包括一位卫理公会牧师、一位残奥金牌得主、一位伐木工、一位儿科医生、一位州卫生官员和一位前六年级教师。
在过去几年由老一辈领袖如前总统乔·拜登和参议员伯尼·桑德斯主导的党内局面中,新一届参议员带来了更年轻的面孔。
以下是值得关注的新参议员:
ALEX ROGERS — WASHINGTON
Democrats won control of the US Senate by taking states in traditional Republican strongholds in a string of victories that brings new blood to Washington.
The next generation of Democratic leaders – which many see as a field for potential presidential candidates – includes a Methodist pastor, a Paralympic gold medallist, a logger, a paediatrician, a state health official and a former sixth-grade teacher.
After years in which the party was dominated by older grandees such as former president Joe Biden and senator Bernie Sanders, the new intake brings a younger generation into view.
These are the new senators to watch:
一位罗德学者和前县卫生主任,42,岁的阿卜杜勒·艾尔-赛义德(Abdul El-Sayed)在一场关键的中西部摇摆州选举中获胜,其平台属于极左翼。
他提出废除移民与海关执法局(ICE)并保证为所有人提供医疗保健。艾尔-赛义德将成为美国历史上首位穆斯林参议员,他称以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡对7 2023哈马斯对以色列的袭击的回应是一场“种族灭绝”。
8月,艾尔-赛义德向一群犹太民主党人道歉,因为他之前曾说“受伤的人会伤害别人”,是在密歇根州一场犹太会堂袭击事件后发表的言论。
艾尔-赛义德尽管在选举后期遭到前民主党对手海莱·斯蒂文斯(Haley Stevens)的反对,2,但他仍然赢得了胜利,斯蒂文斯后来支持了共和党挑战者迈克·罗杰斯(Mike Rogers)。
A Rhodes Scholar and former county health director, Abdul El-Sayed won a crucial Midwest swing state on a far-left platform.
He has proposed the abolition of ICE and guaranteeing healthcare for all. El-Sayed, who will become the first Muslim US senator in American history, has called Benjamin Netanyahu's response to Hamas's October 7 2023 attack on Israel a "genocide".
In August, El-Sayed apologised to a group of Jewish Democrats for previously saying that “hurt people hurt people” after an attack on a Michigan synagogue.
El-Sayed, 42, won despite late opposition from former Democratic opponent Haley Stevens, who endorsed his Republican challenger Mike Rogers.
一名曾任小学六年级教师、正在学习成为长老会牧师的詹姆斯·塔拉里科(37岁),是自1988年以来首位赢得得克萨斯州参议员选举的民主党人。
在竞选活动中,塔拉里科将负担得起性问题与腐败联系起来,提出增加医疗和住房抵扣、对财富征收更高税收,并呼吁禁止超级政治行动委员会(Super PACs)、划分选区(gerrymandering)以及国会议员持股交易。
共和党人对塔拉里科使出了浑身解数,称他为“Talafreako”,谎称他曾是素食主义者,并嘲笑他曾说“上帝是非二元性的”。
特朗普支持肯·帕克斯顿(Talarico的共和党对手),尽管该州检察长长期存在婚姻和法律问题,包括共和党控制的州众议院以贿赂和妨碍司法罪名弹劾他。

A former sixth-grade teacher studying to become a Presbyterian pastor, James Talarico is the first Democrat to win a Senate race in Texas since 1988.
In his campaign Talarico, 37, tied the affordability crisis to corruption, pushing for greater deductions on healthcare and housing, higher taxes on wealth and a ban on Super Pacs, gerrymandering and congressional stock trading.
Republicans threw the kitchen sink at Talarico, dubbing him “Talafreako”, falsely claiming he was a vegan and ridiculing him for once saying “God is non-binary”.

儿科医生安妮·安德鲁斯(46岁)是自1998年以来首位当选南卡罗来纳州参议员的民主党人,击败了林赛·格雷姆的妹妹达琳·格雷姆,后者在其兄长去世后被任命为该席位候选人。
安德鲁斯提出的议程包括扩大医疗补助(Medicaid)覆盖范围(为贫困人群提供医疗保险)以及结束对伊朗的战争。她还采纳了特朗普的一些立场,例如不征收小费税和社会保障税。这位政治新手还抓住了达琳·格雷姆在辩论中的一句话——“国家安全不是我的强项”—来指责她的共和党对手不称职。

Paediatrician Annie Andrews is the first South Carolina Democrat elected to the Senate since 1998, beating Lindsey Graham's sister Darline, who was appointed to the seat after her brother's death.
Andrews, 46, ran on a programme that included the expansion of Medicaid, which provides health insurance for the poor, and ending the war against Iran. She also adopted some Trump positions, such as making permanent no taxes on tips and social security.
The political neophyte also seized on one of Darline Graham's comments during a debate – “national security is not my thing” – to accuse her Republican opponent of being unqualified.
阿达姆·汉密尔顿(62岁)是一名堪萨斯州大型教堂的卫理公会牧师,是自1932年以来首位当选美国参议员的堪萨斯州民主党人。

前北卡罗来纳州州长和州检察长罗伊·库珀(69岁)击败了前共和党党魁迈克尔·惠特利,该州自2008年以来首次选出民主党参议员。
库珀将自己定位为能够抵制保守派社会政策的温和派,同时宣扬自由派成就,如与共和党控制的州立法机构合作扩大医疗补助覆盖范围。
Former North Carolina governor and state attorney-general Roy Cooper beat ex-GOP party boss Michael Whatley in North Carolina, which had not elected a Democrat to the Senate since 2008.
Cooper, 69, pitched himself as a moderate able to push back on conservative social policies while touting liberal achievements such as a Medicaid expansion with the Republican-controlled legislature.
爱荷华州自18年前首次选出民主党参议员。乔什·图雷克(30岁)是一名残奥会金牌得主和州议员,他将个人感人故事与精心构建的攻击相结合,将特朗普的关税和对伊朗的战争与生活成本上涨联系起来。但他也试图在特朗普两年前以13个百分点获胜的州中树立跨党派信誉,表示他对弹劾不感兴趣,并将与特朗普合作处理移民问题。
Iowa has elected a Democrat to the Senate for the first time in 18 years. Josh Turek, a Paralympic gold medallist and state legislator, combined a compelling personal story with well-crafted attacks tying Trump's tariffs and war against Iran to a rise in the cost of living. But he also sought to establish his bipartisan bona fides in a state Trump won by 13 points two years ago. He said he had no interest in impeachment and would work with Trump on immigration.

Trade hopes
伊利亚·格里德内夫 —— 加拿大卡尔加里
安大略省省长道格·福特在看到美国中期选举结果后表示,选民拒绝了美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的经济议程,他“正在做空中翻筋斗”。福特是特朗普关税政策最强烈的批评者之一,该政策针对其省的汽车和钢铁行业,他表示选举结果也是“加拿大的胜利”。
福特说:“我将指示我们的部长们,一旦所有人宣誓就职,就前往华盛顿,与参议员、众议员联系,当然我也会与各州州长交谈。”他昨天表示。
这位省长在社交媒体上多次挑衅特朗普,警告称虽然加拿大现在在贸易战中拥有“杠杆”,但这场斗争远未结束。
特朗普在过去18个月中一直对加拿大发起不间断的攻击,威胁要将其作为第51个州并入美国,并对其钢铁、铝、林业和汽车产业施加关税,试图重建美国制造业基地。
作为回应,渥太华对美国边境州如缅因州和密歇根州等施加了重税,民主党在周二在这些州的参议院席位中取得了翻身。周二,蒙克全球事务与公共政策学院教授布莱恩·拉斯布恩表示:“与美国最亲密盟友开战,加剧了对这一总统任期的无能和霸凌性质的普遍感受。”
拉斯布恩补充道:“考虑到特朗普的‘僵尸’地位以及选举结果将使其影响力急剧下降,[加拿大总理马克·卡尼]的谈判地位得到加强。”
卡尼尚未就共和党的选举惨败发表评论,但周二表示,在8月份谈判破裂后,美国可能很快达成贸易协议。他在安提瓜举行的会议上告诉记者:“我们正在取得进展,但这还没有结束。”
曼尼托巴省省长瓦布·基纽在X上发文称,美国人民对总统两年执政的“压倒性拒绝”。
华盛顿特区律师贾斯汀·安戈蒂表示,特朗普将继续掌控关税政策,因此贸易关系可能仍然动荡。他表示:“但总统选举还在两年后,你无法讨论经济而不提到关税。”
情绪转变
ILYA GRIDNEFF — CALGARY
Ontario premier Doug Ford was doing "cartwheels" when US midterm results showed voters had rebuffed US President Donald Trump's economic agenda.
Ford, one of the loudest critics of the president's tariffs, which have targeted his province's auto and steel sectors, said the election results were also “a victory for Canada”.
"I'm directing our ministers as soon as everyone gets sworn in, go down to Washington, connect with the senators, the Congress people and, of course, I'll be talking to the governors," he said yesterday.
The premier, who has baited Trump on social media, warned that while Canada may now have “leverage” in the trade war, it is far from over.
Trump has singled out Canada with relentless attacks over the past 18 months, threatening to annex it as the 51st state and imposing tariffs on its steel, aluminium, forestry and auto industry in an effort to rebuild the US manufacturing base.
In return, Ottawa has imposed levies that have hit US border states such as Maine and Michigan especially hard. Democrats flipped Senate positions in both on Tuesday.
“Picking a fight with America’s closest ally fed into a general feeling of the incompetence and bullying nature of this presidency,” said Professor Brian Rathbun, from the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy at the University of Toronto.
“Given his lame-duck status and the decline in Trump’s influence that will become dramatic in light of the results, [Canadian Prime Minister Mark] Carney’s bargaining position is strengthened,” he said.
Carney has yet to comment on the Republicans' electoral wipeout but said on Tuesday that a US trade deal may soon be agreed after talks collapsed in August. "We are making progress, but it's not over yet," he told reporters at a conference in Antigua.
Manitoba premier Wab Kinew posted on X that the American people have delivered “a resounding rejection” of the president’s two years in power.
Washington DC-based Justin Angotti, a lawyer in the International Trade and National Security Group at law firm Reed Smith, said Trump would stay in control of tariff policy so trade relations could remain volatile. “But the presidential election is in two years and you can’t talk about the economy without talking about the tariffs,” he said.
Mood shift
安娜·尼科劳 —— 纽约
“攻击性报道”。“像石头一样蠢”。“必须去别的地方,直到那个输家下台”。特朗普在选举夜紧盯福克斯新闻,对自己最喜欢的电视台进行了狂暴的攻击,因为共和党遭遇了历史性的败选。
总统抱怨福克斯主播之一的声音听起来不舒服,在直播期间给另一位主播发短信,要求他攻击她,并指控该网络背叛了他。
但选举结果刚刚落定,民主党在国会两院取得胜利,鲁珀特·默多克的媒体帝国似乎已经开始思考特朗普退出后的未来。
午夜过后不久,《华尔街日报》的社论版面称特朗普是共和党“失败的主要设计者”,并呼吁该党在其离任后讨论自己所代表的核心价值。
默多克著名的好斗性报纸《纽约邮报》在昨天的头版刊登了一幅巨大的蓝色海啸图,描绘了一副手足无措的特朗普即将被海浪吞没的场景,标题为:“特朗普遭遇历史性反击,民主党在中期选举中大获全胜。”
即使在福克斯新闻频道——特朗普长期以来依赖的电视频道,其中一些最具影响力的保守派电视人物支持他——氛围也变得低调了。
特朗普最坚定的支持者之一塞恩·汉尼蒂(Sean Hannity)被问到,如果美国没有与伊朗开战,选举结果是否会不同。他回答:“一百百分之百。我认为没有任何疑问。”
另一位长期特朗普忠实支持者劳拉·英格拉姆(Laura Ingraham)表示,这场冲突“非常艰难,且解释不清”。
共和党的反思正发生在福克斯面临电视观众大幅下降之际。福克斯新闻的黄金时段收视率在10月份较去年同期下降了28%。本周,福克斯首席执行官拉奇兰·默多克(Lachlan Murdoch)表示,观众“感到疲惫”。
在选举夜,特朗普给出了另一个解释:福克斯的收视率“正在崩溃”,因为该网络“反对我!”
然而,福克斯并没有放弃其保守本质。昨天凌晨6.01向观众致意,主播艾恩斯利·伊尔哈特(Ainsley Earhardt)以严峻的语气宣布:“你的钱包和生活方式,正处于十字架上。”
尽管福克斯的情绪正在转变,但它仍然与特朗普深度纠缠在一起——这一点在选票计算期间就已经显现。
卡罗琳·利维特(Karoline Leavitt)本周作为特邀嘉宾加入该网络,她此前曾担任白宫发言人。在选举夜,她告诉观众自己“刚刚与特朗普通话”。她为特朗普的记录辩护,抱怨主流媒体没有报道他的许多成就。
在当晚的另一个时刻,特朗普在直播期间给福克斯主播格雷格·古特菲尔德(Greg Gutfeld)发短信,要求他告诉同事杰西卡·塔洛夫(Jessica Tarlov)她是“最差的”,然后开始长篇大论地为自己的经济记录辩护。古特菲尔德将信息大声朗读出来。塔洛夫的回应是:“按‘停止’。”
默多克曾将自己的公司描述为“英语世界保守声音的守护者”。去年,默多克同意向三个孩子支付超过\300亿美元,以便在自己去世后将媒体帝国的控制权交给长子拉奇兰(Lachlan),并确保其保持右倾立场。
《华尔街日报》的社论版面将特朗普的“反复无常且自私自利的第二任期”归咎于共和党“错失推进保守改革的罕见机会”。文章总结道:“共和党需要就特朗普退出后自己所代表的核心价值展开辩论,希望本周开始。”
即使在网上猛烈抨击福克斯新闻,特朗普仍然打电话参加该网络的长达20分钟的现场采访。他与布雷特·贝尔(Brett Baier)和玛莎·麦卡拉姆(Martha MacCallum)交谈,面对他们对其遭遇重大损失的质问时,语气平静,几乎带着一种听天由命的态度。
特朗普回避了关于伊朗战争的问题,也未对其内阁成员进行批评,甚至称赞民主党的表现。他说道:“布雷特,这只是暂时的。我猜大气中有一种氛围罢了。”并补充道:“我已经很长时间都在做伟大的事情。”
美国中期选举
民主党
ANNA NICOLAOU — NEW YORK
"A hit job". "DUMB AS A ROCK". "Have to go somewhere else until that LOSER is off the air". Donald Trump spent election night glued to Fox News, furiously attacking his favourite TV channel as his party was dealt a historic defeat.
The president complained about the sound of one Fox host's voice, texted another during a live broadcast to demand that he attack her, and accused the network of turning against him.
But before the dust had even settled on an election that swept Democrats to power in both chambers of Congress, Rupert Murdoch's media empire appeared to be contemplating life after Trump.
Shortly after midnight, the Wall Street Journal's editorial board declared that Trump was the “main architect” of the Republican defeat and called for the party to debate what it stood for after him.
The New York Post, Murdoch's famously pugilistic tabloid (pictured), splashed a giant blue tsunami across its front page yesterday, depicting a helpless-looking Trump about to be engulfed by a wave under the headline: "Trump suffers historic rebuke as Dems romp in midterms."
Even on Fox News, the cable television channel where Trump has long
enjoyed the support of some of America's most influential conservative television personalities, the mood had turned muted.
Sean Hannity, one of Trump's staunchest defenders, was asked whether the election would have turned out differently had the US not gone to war with Iran. "One hundred per cent. I don't
think there's any doubt about it," he said.
Laura Ingraham, another longtime Trump loyalist, said the conflict had been “really tough and not well explained”.

The shift comes as Republicans begin to reckon with the scale of their electoral defeat. It raises questions about the future of a political alliance that has helped sustain Trump's dominance of US conservatism over the past decade.
The Wall Street Journal's editorial
blamed Trump's "erratic and self-indulgent" second term for squandering a "rare chance to advance the cause of conservative reform". It concluded: "The GOP needs a debate about what it stands for after Donald Trump, and let's hope it starts this week."
Advancing the conservative cause is
deeply important to Murdoch. He has described his companies as the “protector of the conservative voice in the English-speaking world". Last year, Murdoch agreed to pay more than \$3bn to three of his children to give control of his media empire to his eldest son, Lachlan, after his death – and ensure it remains right-leaning.
The Republican reckoning comes as Fox grapples with a steep drop in its television audience. Fox News's primetime ratings fell 28 per cent in October compared with a year earlier. This week, Fox chief executive Lachlan Murdoch said viewers were "fatigued".
On election night, Trump offered another explanation: Fox's ratings were "collapsing" because the network was "AGAINST me!"
Yet Fox was hardly abandoning its conservative instincts. At 6.01am yesterday, anchor Ainsley Earhardt greeted viewers starkly: "Your wallet and your way of life, in the crosshairs."
While Fox's sentiment may be shifting it remains deeply intertwined with Trump – a feature that was on display even as the votes rolled in.
Karoline Leavitt, who joined the network as a contributor this week after serving as the White House press secretary, told viewers on election night that she had “just talked” to Trump. She defended his record, complaining that the mainstream media had failed to cover his many accomplishments.
At another point during the evening, Trump texted Fox host Greg Gutfeld live on air, demanding that he tell co-host Jessica Tarlov she was “the WORST” before launching into a lengthy defence of his economic record. Gutfeld read the message aloud. Tarlov’s response: “Just press ‘stop’.”
Even while lashing out online at Fox, Trump still called in to the network for a lengthy on-air interview. He spoke to Brett Baier and Martha MacCallum for more than 20 minutes and sounded calm, almost resigned, as they pressed him to explain the stunning losses.
Trump brushed questions about the war in Iran and his cabinet members, and even commended the Democrats for their performance. "It's just a point in time, Brett. There was a mood in the air, I guess," he said. "I've been doing great things for a long time."
US MIDTERMS
Democrats
乔治·斯蒂尔、凯特·杜格威德和哈丽特·克拉菲尔特 —— 纽约
埃米莉·赫伯特 —— 伦敦
纽约时间午间,华尔街股票上涨,投资者认为民主党在2026年美国中期选举中取得压倒性胜利,可能会遏制白宫的政策,这些政策曾引发全球市场动荡。
标普500指数上涨1.8%,而以科技股为主的纳斯达克100指数上涨1.6%,投资者在一天内大幅波动中试图判断民主党对人工智能产业的反弹可能带来的赢家与输家。
欧洲斯托克斯600指数收盘上涨1.9%,全球股市上涨得益于原油价格下跌。随着民主党的压倒性胜利,对唐纳德·特朗普结束对伊朗的战争施加的压力加大,原油价格跌至两个月来的最低点。
布伦特原油,国际基准,下跌8.7%,跌至每桶94.60加元。美国副总统JD Vance将冲突归咎为共和党选举惨败的原因。
选举结果表明美国政府将处于分裂状态,这种局面在华盛顿通常会导致僵局,历史上对市场来说是有利的。皮克特资产管理公司(Pictet Asset Management)的高级多资产策略师阿伦·塞(Arun Sai)表示:“立法僵局是好市场。”他还说,“结果也提供了对今年对全球市场造成冲击的关税和外交政策的明确否决。”
美国股票期货在选举结果公布后下跌,但随后反弹,因为民主党的明确胜利避免了“最坏情况”,即特朗普挑战选举结果的合法性,曼群公司(Man Group)首席市场策略师克里斯蒂娜·胡珀(Kristina Hooper)表示。
美国超级计算机厂商(hyperscalers)股票上涨,投资者认为这些已建立的科技公司在民主党推动下对新数据中心项目的反弹可能会更少脆弱。
亚马逊、阿尔法贝特(Google母公司)和微软分别上涨7.1%、4.5%和7%。减少对数据中心的投资也意味着超级计算机厂商有更多现金用于偿还债务或回报股东。
一位不愿透露姓名的美国投资者表示:“亚马逊已经拥有数据中心,已经完成了投资。需要获得许可的公司才是有麻烦的。”
CoreWeave和Nebius——其市值取决于其筹集和组装新数据中心项目能力的“新云”公司——股票分别下跌8.7%和5.3%。芯片制造商也受到冲击,Nvidia下跌1.2%,Micron下跌5.4%。
加元兑一篮子货币下跌0.2%,投资者质疑AI对经济的刺激是否可能削弱。国债升值,10年期国债收益率下降0.05个百分点至4.89%。债券收益率下降意味着价格上涨。
巴克莱银行(Barclays)高级外汇策略师莱夫特里斯·法尔马基斯(Lefteris Farmakis)表示:“AI和数据中心投资是美国增长动能的关键决定因素。”
埃隆·马斯克的SpaceX和特斯拉分别下跌2.9%和3.4%,投资者指出更严格的监管可能对两者构成威胁。
在国防股中,尽管美国市场整体乐观,但投资者对民主党可能削减特朗普承诺的军事开支大幅增加的担忧,导致国防股逆势下跌。洛克希德·马丁和L3哈里斯的股票下跌超过6%,而诺斯罗普·格鲁曼的股票下跌约4%。
1月份,当特朗普提出将年度国防开支从10000亿加元增加到15000亿加元,以建立“梦想军队”时,国防投资者和高管们感到兴奋。
但国防部长彼得·赫格塞斯(Pete Hegseth)与国会的关系因伊朗战争恶化——民主党承诺将反转对国内项目的深度削减。
GEORGE STEER, KATE DUGUID AND HARRIET CLARFELT — NEW YORK EMILY HERBERT — LONDON
Wall Street stocks climbed yesterday, as investors bet that the Democrats' resounding victory in the US midterm elections could restrain White House policymaking that has stirred up global markets.
The S&P 500 was up 1.8 per cent by lunchtime in New York, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 was up 1.6 per cent in a day of big swings as traders tried to pick the winners and losers from an expected Democrat backlash against the AI industry.
The Stoxx Europe 600 closed 1.9 per cent higher, as global equity gains were stoked by falling oil prices. Oil prices dropped to their lowest in two months as the Democrats' landslide victory ratcheted up the pressure on Donald Trump to end his war on Iran.
Brent crude, the international benchmark, fell 8.7 per cent to \$94.60 a barrel after US vice-president JD Vance blamed the conflict for the Republicans' poll wipeout.
The election results pointed to a divided government, with a set-up that typically creates gridlock in Washington and has historically been benign for markets. “Legislative gridlock is good for markets,” said Arun Sai, senior multi-asset strategist at Pictet Asset Management.
The result also offered "a clear repudiation of tariffs and foreign policy that have hit global markets this year", Saisaid.
US stock futures had fallen overnight as results filtered through, but they later rebounded as the Democrats' clear win averted a “worst-case scenario” in which Trump challenged the legitimacy of the results, according to Kristina Hooper, chief market strategist at Man Group.
Shares in US hyperscalers surged as investors bet that established technology companies would prove less vulnerable to a Democrat-led pushback against new data centre projects.
Amazon, Alphabet and Microsoft jumped 7.1 per cent, 4.5 per cent and 7 per cent, respectively. Spending less on data centres would also mean the hyperscalers have more cash left over to service debt or return to shareholders.
"Amazon already has data centres, they've already made their investments," said one US investor who asked not to be named. "It's the guys who need permits who are in trouble."
Shares in CoreWeave and Nebius — “neoclouds” whose market value hinges on their ability to finance and assemble new data centre projects — fell 8.7 per cent and 5.3 per cent. Chipmakers were also hit, with Nvidia losing 1.2 per cent and Micron down 5.4 per cent.
The dollar fell 0.2 per cent against a basket of currencies as investors questioned whether the boost to the economy from AI could weaken. Treasuries strengthened, with the 10-year yield falling 0.05 percentage points to 4.89 per cent. Bond yields fall if prices rise.
“AI and data centre investment are key determinants of US growth momentum,” said Lefteris Farmakis, senior FX strategist at Barclays.
Elon Musk's SpaceX and Tesla lost 2.9 per cent and 3.4 per cent respectively, with investors pointing to greater regulation as a possible threat to both.
Defence stocks also bucked the broader optimism in US markets, amid investor fears that Democrats would curb Trump's promised military spending bonanza. Shares in Lockheed Martin and L3Harris fell more than 6 per cent, while shares in Northrop Grumman dropped about 4 per cent.
There was excitement among defence investors and executives in January, when Trump proposed increasing annual defence spending from \$1tn to \$1.5tn to build a “dream military”.
But relations between defence secretary Pete Hegseth and Congress have soured over the Iran war – and Democrats have vowed to reverse deep cuts to domestic programmes.

民主党在周二的选举中取得了震惊全国的大胜,选民在各地理和人口统计分区中大规模倒向该党。
这场“蓝潮”比大多数民调预测的范围更广,选民纷纷抛弃了美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的共和党,包括在该党曾经不可动摇的心脏地带。
以下是《金融时报》的主要观察:
MYLES MCCORMICK — DES MOINES
JONATHAN VINCENT, EVA XIAO,
SAM LEARNER AND
MICHAEL TAFFE — NEW YORK
Democrats pulled off a sweep of stunning victories on Tuesday, as voters across geographic and demographic divides swung towards the party in huge numbers.
The “blue wave” proved much more extensive than most polls had predicted, as voters abandoned US President Donald Trump’s Republicans in droves, including in some of the party’s once unassailable heartlands.
These are the FT's top takeaways.
民主党参议员候选人在与2022年总统选举结果相比时,显著增加了选票份额。
在得克萨斯州、南卡罗来纳州和堪萨斯州——特朗普在2024年在这些州以双位数优势获胜——民主党取得了巨大进展,标志着共和党在曾被视为深红色的州份中支持率急剧下滑。
众议院同样出现类似情况,民主党在大多数选区(包括城市和农村)都取得了进展。
三州中爱荷华州的三个众议院席位被民主党夺走,而科罗拉多州的四个共和党控制席位中至少有三个将被民主党夺取。
两位共和党现任众议员在2024年总统选举中由卡马拉·哈里斯赢得的选区中防守,迈克·劳勒(纽约)和布莱恩·菲茨帕特里克(宾夕法尼亚州),尽管共和党团体花费超过5000万美元保住他们的席位,但仍然输掉了选举。
民主党的胜利涵盖了几乎所有人口统计群体,根据NBC新闻的出口民调数据,民主党在几乎所有群体中都增加了支持率。
年轻选民的转向幅度超过老年选民,18至29岁年龄段的选民中有72%投票给民主党,比两年前的总统选举(54%)增加了18个百分点。
所有调查的种族群体也都向民主党靠拢。拉丁裔选民的支持率——他们在2024年共和党胜利中扮演了关键角色——从51%增加到62%。
Democratic Senate candidates greatly increased their share of the vote when compared with the presidential election result two years ago.
In Texas, South Carolina and Kansas – all states Trump won by double-digit margins in 2024 – Democrats recorded huge gains, marking a massive
deterioration in Republican support in states once considered deeply red.
A similar story unfolded in the House, with Democrats gaining ground in the vast majority of districts, both urban and rural.

Three out of four of Iowa's House seats flipped to the Democrats, while they are set to flip at least three of Colorado's four Republican-held seats.
The two Republican incumbents defending districts won by Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential vote — Mike Lawler in New York and Brian Fitzpatrick in Pennsylvania — lost their races, despite more than \$50mn spent by Republican groups to protect their seats.
The Democrats' gains were broad-based, with the party increasing its support among almost all demographic groups, according to exit poll data from NBC News.
Younger voters swung more than older voters, with 72 per cent of people aged 18 to 29 voting for Democrats, up from 54 per cent in the presidential elec-
tion two years ago.
All racial groups surveyed also moved towards the Democrats. Support among Latino voters – whose shift towards Republicans had played a pivotal role in Trump's victory in 2024 – increased from 51 to 62 per cent.
尽管在支持以色列、跨性别权利和经济民粹主义等问题上存在深刻内部分歧,民主党仍成功展现了一个广泛统一的阵线。
在密歇根州的竞选最后几天,民主党初选落败者海莱·斯蒂文斯(Haley Stevens)撤回了对民主党候选人阿卜杜勒·艾尔-赛义德(Abdul El-Sayed)的支持,转而支持其共和党对手,据称是因为艾尔-赛义德在以色列问题上的立场。
但斯蒂文斯的背叛反而有益地激励了民主党人,在竞选最后阶段推动了艾尔-赛义德竞选活动中的捐款和志愿者激增。
而在爱荷华州,参议员候选人乔什·图雷克(Josh Turek)因反对跨性别运动员参加女子体育赛事而激怒了党内基层。这一举动被一些人视为向右转的权宜之计,可能会疏远进步派选民。但党最终还是团结在他的身后。
“我只能屏住呼吸投票给图雷克了,”选民杰夫·罗里克(Jeff Rohrick,54岁)告诉《金融时报》。“我填完了所有选票,然后又得回去填他的选票……但我还是投票给了参议院民主党多数派。”
Democrats managed to present a broadly united front despite deep internal divisions over issues from support for Israel to transgender rights and economic populism.
Intraparty schisms reached a peak in the final days of the campaign in Michigan, when Haley Stevens, defeated in the party's primaries, withdrew her support for Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed and instead backed his Republican rival, purportedly over El-Sayed's position on Israel.
But Stevens' defection – branded a
nately galvanised Democrats, driving a surge in donations and volunteers for El-Sayed's campaign in the final days of the race.
In Iowa, meanwhile, Senate candidate Josh Turek provoked anger among the party's base after he came out against transgen-

"I had to sort of hold my breath and vote for Turek," voter Jeff Rohrick, 54, told the FT. "I filled in all my bubbles and then I had to go back to his . . . but I voted for a [Democratic] majority in the Senate."
特朗普一再强调自己插手竞选,要求美国人投票时仿佛他本人在候选名单上,但这种做法在共和党人看来反而弄巧成拙。他在一场侃侃而谈的演讲中,更多关注的是玩笑和攻击,而不是经济问题。

总统在过去几个月里横跨全国举办集会,希望能激励共和党基层。但随着美国民众面临高通胀的压力,特朗普关于候选人“肌肉发达的背部”和“反射池的巨大反射性”的言论反而遭到冷遇。
“他让(共和党候选人)很难(赢选),因为他不闭嘴。”69岁的共和党选民凯文·阿克尔斯(Kevin Akers)在爱荷华州的德摩因(Des Moines)表示。
特朗普在提及经济时,提到股市繁荣和经济增长,但大多数选民并未感受到这些,因为他发动的伊朗战争推高了汽油价格(上涨三分之一),并将柴油成本推至纪录高位,进一步加剧了通胀压力。
Trump's insistence on inserting himself into the campaign, telling Americans to vote as if he were on the ballot, back-fired for Republicans after a rambling message that focused more on quips and insults than economic concerns.

The president criss-crossed the country in recent months holding rallies he hoped would fire up the Republican base. But as Americans struggled with bruising inflation, Trump's musings about candidates' "pile of muscle" backsides and the "great reflectivity" of his Reflecting Pool renovations fell flat.
“He’s making it hard [for Republican candidates], ’cause he doesn’t keep his big mouth shut,” said Kevin Akers, a 69-year-old Republican voter in Des Moines, Iowa.
Where Trump did address the economy, he spoke about a booming stock market and chunky economic growth that most voters were not feeling as they were squeezed by a surge in inflation driven by his war in Iran, which pushed petrol prices up by a third and sent diesel costs to record levels.
共和党尝试通过重新划分多个众议院选区来提高获胜机会,但这些努力在多个州(如得克萨斯州和佛罗里达州)中大多失败。
在得克萨斯州,共和党重新划分了五个众议院选区,大致对应三个传统民主党城市——达拉斯、休斯顿和圣安东尼奥,以及边境和海湾沿岸的县。民主党候选人赢得了其中四个选区。剩下的第32选区仍然难以判断,但共和党候选人略占优势。
在佛罗里达州,共和党重新划分的四个众议院选区中,有三个落入民主党手中,第四个选区则难分伯仲,民主党候选人以微弱优势领先共和党对手。
相比之下,民主党在加利福尼亚州重新划分选区的努力似乎取得成功,目前民主党赢得了五个选区中的三个,另外两个选区倾向于民主党。
Republicans attempted to improve their odds by redistricting several House races in their favour. Their efforts have largely failed in several states, including Texas and Florida.
In Texas, Republicans redistricted five House districts, roughly corresponding to three typically Democratic cities – Dallas, Houston and San Antonio – as well as counties along the border and Gulf Coast.
Democratic candidates have won four of the five races. The remaining district, Texas's 32nd, was still too close to call, though the Republican candidate had a slight lead.
In Florida, three of the four House districts Republicans redistricted went to Democrats, while the fourth was too close to call, with the Democratic candidate holding a razor-thin edge over his Republican counterpart.
Conversely, Democrats' efforts to redistrict California in their favour appear to be successful so far, with Democrats winning three out of five districts. The other two were leaning Democrat.
特朗普插手共和党初选,推翻他视为不够支持其议程的现任候选人,并亲自挑选心仪的候选人。但这些努力似乎反而弄巧成拙。
肯·帕克森(Ken Paxton)今年在总统支持下击败了连任24年的约翰·科尼恩(John Cornyn),但最终为民主党赢得了得克萨斯州参议院席位,这是自1988.年以来首次。路易斯安那州参议员比尔·卡西迪(Bill Cassidy)也在今年的共和党初选中败给了特朗普支持的朱莉娅·莱特洛(Julia Letlow)。尽管莱特洛预计将保住共和党席位,但她在周二的选举中以仅4个百分点的优势领先民主党候选人杰米·戴维斯(Jamie Davis),而总统在两年前以22个百分点的优势赢得该州。
特朗普还提名达琳·格雷厄姆(Darline Graham),林赛·格雷厄姆(Lindsey Graham)的姐姐,接替其在7月去世后的参议院席位。总统的支持帮助她在共和党初选中击败两名现任众议员和一名南卡罗来纳州前州长,但最终在一场最大的意外中输给了安妮·安德鲁斯(Annie Andrews)。
Trump waded into Republican primaries to unseat incumbents he viewed as not supportive enough of his agenda, and to handpick his chosen candidates. His efforts appear to have backfired.
Ken Paxton, who ousted 24-year incumbent John Cornyn with the president's endorsement this year, handed Democrats a Senate seat from Texas for the first time since 1988. Louisiana senator Bill Cassidy was also defeated in the Republican primary this year by Trump-endorsed Julia Letlow. While Letlow is expected to keep the seat in the Republican column, she led Democrat Jamie Davis by just four points on Tuesday night in a state the president carried by 22 points two years earlier.
Trump also tapped Darline Graham, sister of longtime senator Lindsey Graham, to succeed him on the ballot following his death in July. The president's endorsement carried her past two sitting congressmen and a former governor of South Carolina in the Republican primary, to ultimately lose to Annie Andrews in one of the biggest upsets.

比尔·盖茨指责特朗普政府阻碍了应对人工智能(AI)风险的努力,警告称该技术可能被用于制造一场“比新冠疫情更严重的大流行”。
在昨天举办的《金融时报》AI未来峰会上,微软联合创始人表示,AI模型的“惊人”能力意味着“其带来的好处和潜在的危害都无法被夸大”。他指出,恶意行为者利用AI工具制造生物武器或攻击社会各领域的网络漏洞,构成了当前最直接的威胁,特别是那些能够移除某些“开放”模型(这些模型对开发者自由可及)的安全防护和监控机制的情况。
盖茨警告称,AI生物安全事件造成的“损害规模”可能“远比新冠疫情更严重”。据估计,2020年和2021年与冠状病毒大流行相关的死亡人数达1500万。
尽管存在这些恐惧,但国际上对AI及其影响的监管和监督努力正因白宫的不作为而受阻。盖茨表示:“如果美国不参与其中,那么采取行动的价值就不大。我们现在处于某种僵局……唯一的问题是,需要发生多少次恶性事件,他们才会改变立场。”
盖茨是最早警告AI发展可能导致被滥用或失控,并造成灾难性后果的科技界领袖之一。这位亿万慈善家此前曾警告,AI可能导致数亿人死亡,并引发大规模就业混乱。
近几个月来,对这一新兴技术的安全性的担忧日益高涨,安索普(Anthropic)上周发布的IPO招股说明书警告称,AI可能对人类构成“灾难性或存在性风险”。盖茨称赞该前沿实验室对AI危险的坦诚态度:“他们一直非常开放,而这正是另一个例子。”
尽管AI技术发展迅猛,但美国总统唐纳德·特朗普拒绝了对AI实施更严格政府监管的呼吁,将开发G20 AI指南的提议斥为“全球主义阴谋”,并更倾向于行业自律。
盖茨认为,自律行不通。他说道:“一旦我们加入多家公司,解决问题的唯一方式就上升到政府层面。”
他敦促政府考虑建立安全防护和监控的基准,并领导全球努力修复网络漏洞,并实施“巨大”的监测工作,覆盖“空气、污水、血液”以早期发现潜在的AI驱动感染。
他还指出,“模型本身失控”问题将在不久的将来成为一个严重的关注点,可能涉及即将推出的新模型。盖茨认为,这需要政府进一步加强安全防护和对新模型的第三方审计。
他呼吁加快利用AI带来的好处,例如药物研发和缩短医院候诊时间。
“所有好的事情都不会自然发生”,他说道。盖茨还表示支持“对亿万富翁和超级富有阶层征税”,在一个被AI颠覆的社会中,这似乎支持加利福尼亚州“亿万富翁税”提案。

RACHEL REES AND MADHUMITA MURGIA
LONDON
Bill Gates has accused the Trump administration of stymying efforts to protect against the risks of AI, warning that the technology could be used to cause a pandemic “significantly worse than Covid”.
Speaking at the FT's Future of AI Summit yesterday, the Microsoft co-founder said that AI models' "stunning" capabilities meant "the potential for good, the potential for harm, can't be overstated".
Bad actors using AI tools to create bioweapons or attack cyber vulnerabilities across society posed the greatest immediate risk, he said, particularly given the ability to remove safeguards and monitoring from certain “open” models that are freely accessible to developers.
The “scale of the damage” of a biosecurity incident involving AI could be “significantly worse than Covid”, the tech billionaire warned. An estimated 15mn deaths were linked to the coronavirus pandemic in 2020 and 2021.
Despite these fears, international efforts to regulate and monitor AI and its impacts were being hindered by White House inaction, Gates said. “There’s not much value in acting unless the US is part of that. So we’re kind of stymied . . . The only question is how many bad events need to take place before they change their posture,” he said.
Gates is among the leading tech figures to have warned AI is developing in ways that could lead it to be misused or become beyond human control with disastrous consequences. The billionaire philanthropist has previously warned it could cause a billion deaths and lead to widespread job disruption.
Concerns over the safety of the nascent technology have ignited in recent months, with Anthropic's IPO prospectus last week warning of the potential "catastrophic or existential risks to humanity". Gates praised the frontier lab's honesty about AI dangers: "They've always been very open, and this is another example of that."
Despite the blistering pace of the technology's development, President Donald Trump has rebuffed calls for stricter government regulation of AI, dismissing a bid to develop G20 AI guidelines as a “globalist scheme” and instead favouring self-regulation within the sector.
Self-regulation would not work, Gates said. "As soon as we add multiple companies, then the only way to solve this moves up to the government."
He urged the administration to consider a benchmark for safeguards and monitoring, and to lead a global effort to fix cyber vulnerabilities and institute “massive” monitoring efforts across “air, sewage, blood” to catch potential AI-enabled infections early.
The issue of “the models themselves being out of control” would become a serious concern in the near future, potentially with upcoming models, he added. Gates argued this requires further government work on safeguarding and third-party auditing of new models.
He urged accelerated efforts to reap AI's benefits, such as drug discovery and alleviating hospital waiting lists.
“None of the good stuff happens naturally,” he said. Gates also declared his support for “tax[ing] billionaires” and the ultra-wealthy in a society uprooted by AI, in a seeming endorsement of California’s “billionaire tax” proposal.
民主党人仍在庆祝中期选举的胜利,但美国政界已经将目光转向下一个选举战役:2028年争夺白宫的总统竞选。
由于特朗普(Donald Trump)根据宪法无法连任第三届,两大政党都将寻找一位总统候选人。
一些最成功的白宫竞选活动往往在中期选举后不久就开始启动。特朗普赢得2024年大选的竞选活动于2022年11月在海湖庄园(Mar-a-Lago)启动,而巴拉克·奥巴马(Barack Obama)的2008年竞选活动则始于2007年2月。
这意味着候选人将在接下来的几周内开始接触捐款人、访问初选州,并从民意调查师和战略顾问那里寻求关于自身竞选可行性的建议。
对于民主党来说,竞选仍然是一片开放的战场。该党希望其轰动性的中期选举表现能够驱散2024年灾难性竞选的记忆,当时拜登(Joe Biden)总统在选举日前仅四个月就退出了竞选。

纽瑟姆在特朗普第二任期的第一年,将自己定位为总统的主要民主党对手,通过社交媒体发帖和各种攻击来挑衅总统。市场赋予其赢得党内提名的概率为14.9%。
他从未隐瞒过自己的野心,可能会成为在中期选举后率先为2028年总统竞选做准备的候选人之一。上周在与深夜喜剧主持人吉米·基梅尔(Jimmy Kimmel)的采访中,他预测了席卷全国的“蓝色潮汐”(blue tsunami),这正是中期选举的结果。
然而,他近几个月未能脱颖而出,成为2028年明确的头号候选人,这可能表明民主党正在寻找一个超越“沿海自由派”形象的候选人,而这一形象在2024年对卡玛拉·哈里斯(Kamala Harris)造成了伤害。

乔治亚州参议员乔恩·奥索夫(Jon Ossoff)

自2021年起担任乔治亚州参议员
市场赋予其赢得党内提名的概率为24.5%。
奥索夫是民主党今年中期选举中最有效的政治家之一,他在关键州顺利连任。他在竞选演讲中发表了类似奥巴马风格的演讲,抨击特朗普在任期间的“致富”行为、未能控制通胀以及伊朗战争的失误。他还通过病毒式的攻击总统,包括对特朗普亲信娜塔莉·哈普(Natalie Harp)的讽刺,这让白宫感到不快。
尽管奥索夫一再声称自己“对白宫竞选‘零兴趣’,但他目前是赌场书记员心目中2028年民主党最有希望的候选人。
副总统约翰·德文斯(JD Vance)
年龄:42岁
现任副总统
市场赋予其赢得党内提名的概率为31.3%。
民调师们的热门人选,将接替特朗普。德文斯来自“MAGA”民粹主义非干涉主义派系,吸引了年轻保守派,并获得了知名科技投资者等多位捐款人的支持。
但对于初选选民来说,他可能会因为政府决定对伊朗开战以及未能降低通胀而受到污名化。他还可能是一个不善于竞选的候选人;2024年竞选期间,他在甜甜圈店员工面前的僵硬交流成为了一段病毒式的视频。他肯定会意识到,现任副总统成功说服选民将其推上总统宝座的记录极为罕见。在过去190年中,仅有一人——乔治·H·W·布什(George HW Bush)成功实现了这一目标。
然而,德文斯(Vance)在2028年竞选党内提名时仍将在筹款和知名度上拥有天然优势,这对任何对手来说都是难以超越的。
年龄:55岁,曾任美国国务卿
市场赋予的获胜党内提名概率:19.4%
最有可能——也是最受欢迎的——德文斯的竞争对手是鲁比奥(Rubio)。鲁比奥确实通过对特朗普的忠诚赢得了“MAGA”基层的青睐,但他仍被视为比副总统更接近传统共和党价值观,这将使他对年长的保守派选民和精英捐款者更具吸引力。
特朗普在2016年竞选期间曾多次嘲讽鲁比奥为“小马可”(Little Marco),当时两人是竞争对手。但他现在在第二任期内越来越依赖鲁比奥,委任他担任国务卿和国家安全顾问——并将其置于所有重大外交政策决策的核心。
像德文斯一样,鲁比奥在不受欢迎的政府中的角色可能会影响其竞选。但鲁比奥的优势在于可以辞去现职,专心准备竞选。
Democrats are still toasting the mid-term results, but the US political class is already setting its sights on the next electoral battle: the 2028 race for the White House.
With President Donald Trump constitutionally barred from a third term in office, both major parties will be seeking a candidate for the presidency.
Some of the most successful White House campaigns launched soon after the midterms. Trump's winning 2024 bid was launched in November 2022 from Mar-a-Lago, and Barack
Obama's 2008 campaign began in February 2007.
This means that candidates will, in the coming weeks, start sounding out donors, visiting primary states and getting advice from pollsters and strategists about their viability.
For Democrats the race is very much an open field. The party will hope its sensational midterms performance banishes memories of the disastrous 2024 campaign when President Joe Biden withdrew from the race only four months before election day.

Marco Rubio
On the Republican side, the question for presidential hopefuls will be whether to distance themselves from Trump after the disastrous midterms – or stick with him, betting that a possible endorsement could deliver them the nomination.

Newsom presented himself as Trump's chief Democratic antagonist during the first year of his second term, trolling the president with social media posts and attacking him at every turn.
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 14.9%
He has made little secret of his ambitions and may well be among the first out of the gate in terms of positioning himself for the presidency after the midterms. In an interview with late-night comedy host Jimmy Kimmel last week, Newsom forecast the “blue tsunami” that ended up sweeping across the country.
But he has failed to emerge as the clear frontrunner for 2028 in recent months, perhaps a sign that Democrats are looking for a candidate who transcends the image of a coastal liberal that hurt Kamala Harris in 2024.

Age: 39
Senator for Georgia since 2021
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 24.5%
One of the Democratic Party's most effective politicians during this year's midterms, Jon Ossoff comfortably cruised to re-election in a battleground state.
He gave Obama-style speeches on the stump, railing against Trump's enrichment while in office, his failure to tame inflation and the blunders of the Iran war. He mixed it up with viral takedowns of the president — including a jab at Natalie Harp, his close aide, that rankled the White House.
Despite Ossoff's insistence that he has "zero interest" in a White House run, he is currently the Democratic favourite with bookmakers to win in 2028.
Age: 42
Vice-president
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 31.3%
The pollsters' favourite to succeed Trump. Vance comes from Maga's populist non-interventionist faction, which attracts younger conservatives, and he has the backing of prominent tech investors among a wealth of other donors.
But for primary voters, he risks being tainted by the administration's decision to go to war with Iran and failure to reduce inflation. He can also be an awkward campaigner; a stilted exchange with doughnut shop employees became a viral moment in the 2024 election. He will certainly be aware of the dismal record of sitting vice-presidents convincing voters to give them the top job. Only one, George HW Bush, has managed it in the past 190 years.
However, Vance will still have a natural edge going into 2028 in terms of fundraising and name recognition that will be hard to overcome for any rivals.
Age: 55 US secretary of state
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 19.4%
The most likely — and most popular — alternative to Vance. Rubio has certainly endeared himself to the Maga base through his loyalty to Trump, but is still seen as closer to traditional Republican values than the vice-president, which would make him more appealing to older conservative voters and establishment donors.
Trump derided Rubio repeatedly as "little Marco" on the 2016 campaign trail when they were rivals. But he has come to rely on him heavily during his second term, tapping him to be secretary of state and national security adviser — and putting him at the heart of all his biggest foreign policy decisions.
Like Vance, his role in an unpopular administration could weigh against his bid. But Rubio would have the advantage of being able to step down from his job to prepare his candidacy.

她的2024年总统竞选因拜登退出竞选后匆忙组建阵营而受阻。她的2020年竞选在初选阶段就未能起势,但她将面临与之前相同的问题:在经济和外交政策上的立场未能打动选民,以及难以捍卫拜登的执政记录。她的2020年竞选在初选阶段就未能起势。

但她有时间在身。她比约翰·F·肯尼迪(John F. Kennedy)在当选美国历史上最年轻的总统时年龄小6岁。亚历山德丽亚·奥卡西奥-科尔特兹的另一种选择是2028年竞选纽约州参议院席位——如果75岁的党领袖查克·舒默(Chuck Schumer)能够在2028年辞去上院席位。

Former vice-president
Despite her loss to Trump two years ago, polls show that the former vice-president still has substantial support within the party.

Her bid for the White House in 2024 was hampered by being only hastily cobbled together following Biden's decision to pull out of the race.
But she would risk running into many of the same problems that dogged her then: stances on both economic and foreign policy that failed to resonate with voters, and her struggle to defend Biden's record. Her 2020 campaign also fizzled out before the primaries even began.

moderating some of her positions to broaden her appeal.
But she has time on her side. She is six years younger than John F Kennedy was when he became the youngest elected president in US history. An alternative option for Ocasio-Cortez might be to run for a Senate seat in New York — if Chuck Schumer, the 75-year-old party leader in the upper chamber, can be persuaded to vacate it in 2028.

Josh Shapiro
Age: 53 Governor of Pennsylvania
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 4.7%
One of the most popular Democratic governors in the country easily secured re-election in the vital swing state of Pennsylvania this week. If he decides to make a run for the White House, Shapiro would represent the moderate, centrist wing of the Democratic Party and likely clash with progressives both on economic policy and regulatory issues as well as foreign policy, where he is known for his pro-Israel views.

如果特朗普决定将“MAGA”权杖传给家族内部,长子可能是最有可能的继承人。他主要在父亲第二任期内四处寻求商业机遇,但比其他兄弟在2024年竞选活动中花费了更多时间,并通过其多元化的商业利益培养了大量潜在捐款人。

近期民调显示,德桑蒂斯曾是2024年共和党初选早期阶段反对特朗普派别的最大希望。在第二任期即将结束之际,他被视为共和党选民若决定背离特朗普及“MAGA”运动而回归传统保守主义时的“黑马”候选人。在中期选举前夕,他在一场广播采访中批评特朗普政府未能有效应对政治腐败。
但德桑蒂斯未能将其在佛罗里达的声望和成功转化为全国性吸引力,两年前的失败可能也会在2028年困扰他。

自2013年起任得克萨斯州参议员
克鲁兹曾在2016年与鲁比奥(Rubio)竞争,排名仅次于后者。虽然特朗普长子在知名度上不成问题,但缺乏父亲那种原始的政治魅力。尽管美国人过去曾对家族政治(如布什家族、肯尼迪家族)有所偏好,但“特朗普主义”在家族内传承可能难以说服选民。
党内提名获胜概率(市场隐含估计):2.5%
克鲁兹经常被特朗普提及为第二任期内可能的最高法院候选人,如果出现空缺。但除此之外,他可能会尝试在2016年未能击败特朗普后,再次挑战白宫。与鲁比奥不同,克鲁兹保持了一定距离,如果特朗普的支持率在2027年继续下滑,他可能更容易批评政府。然而,他并不像德文斯(Vance)那样与“MAGA”世代的年轻共和党选民有着密切联系,这可能会阻碍他崛起。

DeSantis was the great hope of anti-Trump Republicans during the early stages of the 2024 primaries.
With his second term in office about to end, he is seen as a potential dark horse contender if Republican voters decide it is time to turn their backs on Trump and the Maga movement and revert to traditional conservatism. On the eve of the midterms, he criticised the Trump administration in a radio interview for not doing enough to tackle political corruption.
But DeSantis was unable to translate his popularity and success in Florida into broader national appeal two years ago, a limit that would threaten to dog him in 2028 as well.

Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 2.5%
Cruz is frequently mentioned by Trump as a possible Supreme Court nominee if another vacancy opens during his second term. But otherwise, he could attempt to mount another White House run after failing to beat Trump in 2016, then declining to challenge him in 2024.
Unlike Rubio, Cruz has kept some distance from Trump so might find it easier to be critical of the administration if the president's approval ratings continue to plummet in 2027. But he is not as close to the younger generation of Republican voters bred during the Maga years as Vance is, which could make it harder for him to break out.

美国民主党在两院的“蓝潮”胜利,不仅是一场显著的政治胜利,更是美国民主史上的里程碑。自2006年1月特朗普第二次就职以来,美国治理体系的“三权制衡”遭遇前所未有的权威主义冲击。选民们在投票站给予的反击,证明了民主制度的根基依然稳固。如果民主党能够抓住机遇,共和党能够重新审视现状,美国政治体系的修复或将由此开始。
美国总统在中期选举中遭遇惨败并非首次,从布什因伊拉克战争在2006年两院失利,到奥巴马在2010年遭遇“彻底失败”,但此次民主党在两院的全面胜利,加上在长期共和党堡垒如得克萨斯州和堪萨斯州的深度进展,是自1994年以来对在任总统最全面的否决。
拯救美国民主可能并非大多数选民的首要关注点,但他们对高层腐败的不满却是显而易见的。此次选举最核心的议题是生活成本。特朗普曾承诺结束美国的“永久战争”,减轻家庭负担。然而,他的关税政策和伊朗战争导致燃料和其他商品价格飙升,重创了工薪阶层。特朗普还承诺“排干沼泽”,却反而将其据为己有。在惊人的程度上,这位总统为自己的失败埋下了伏笔。
美国法院阻止了特朗普试图控制邮寄选票的企图,确保选民的声音能够无阻碍地表达;两党州官员拒绝了交付未删节的选民名单的要求,也发挥了作用。共和党的“划分选区”策略似乎反而适得其反。最终结果如此明确,以至于总统别无选择,只能声称自己会接受结果。
目前仍有两大风险亟待应对:
1. 民主党可能因总统的否决权、自身战略错误或内部斗争,在未来两年无法取得显著成就,从而削弱2028年关键选举的机会。尽管进步派候选人取得突破,民主党应避免向左偏移。
2. 尽管民主党对特朗普总统的弹劾有正当渴望,但参议院的算术现实意味着第三次弹劾几乎必然失败,且可能重新激活特朗普支持者的残余力量。更明智的做法是专注于调查并追究特朗普家族及其同伙的牟利行为。
民主党在两院的胜利,加上在共和党堡垒的进展,是自1994年以来对在任总统最全面的否决。
共和党方面,应当认清总统对其政治品牌造成的损害,并尝试与之保持距离。
另一风险——对美国和世界来说——是一位“愤怒的小天鹅”总统利用外交政策发泄个人不满。一位充满敌意且无约束的特朗普可能造成巨大破坏,例如重启伊朗战争,或在其他领域展开危险的冒险行动。
美国民主的振奋人心的实践仅仅是开始,逆转对美国机构的破坏将是一项长期任务。虽然美国选民效仿匈牙利和塞尔维亚,反对权力寡头式独裁,但民族主义民粹主义的全球威胁并未消除。它可能很快在法国等地取得进展。然而,这是美国政治故事的决定性时刻:特朗普时代的终结开始。
The blue wave that has swept over both houses of Congress is a remarkable victory for US Democrats. More importantly, it is a historic victory for American democracy. Since Donald Trump's second inauguration in January last year, the checks and balances of US governance have been assaulted as never before by the authoritarian impulses of a president. The rebuke Americans delivered at the ballot box is a sign that the fundamental anchors of democracy have held firm. It offers a chance, if Democrats can seize it and Republicans start to see sense, to begin repairing America's political system.
US presidents have suffered stinging midterm setbacks before, from George W Bush's dual-chamber loss over the Iraq war in 2006 to Barack Obama's “shellacking” in 2010. But the sweep of both houses, coupled with the depth of Democratic gains even in decades-long Republican bastions such as Texas and Kansas, is the most comprehensive repudiation of a sitting president since at least 1994.
Saving American democracy may not have been front of mind for most voters but they were certainly exercised about top-level corruption. Above all, this was an election defined by the cost of living. Trump had sworn to end America's "forever wars" and lighten the burden on families. Instead, his tariffs and misbegotten war in Iran stoked prices of fuel and other goods, hitting working-class Americans hardest. Trump also pledged to drain the swamp, not commandeer it for his own profit. To an astounding degree, the president sowed the seeds of his own comeuppance.
US courts, which blocked Trump's efforts to take control of mail-in ballots, played their part in ensuring Americans' voices could be heard without restraint, as did the state officials of both parties who rebuffed demands to hand over unredacted state voter rolls. Republican efforts at gerrymandering appear to have backfired. The outcome was ultimately so unambiguous as to leave the president with little option but to claim he would accept it.
Two main risks still loom. One is that the Democrats are prevented by the veto powers of a vituperative president, or by their own strategic errors or infighting, from any achievement of note in the next two years – hampering their chances in the pivotal 2028 elections. Despite breakthroughs by progressive candidates, they should avoid drifting to the left.
For all the Democrats' justifiable thirst for a presidential impeachment, moreover, Senate arithmetic still means a third attempt would almost certainly be doomed, and would risk re-energising the remnants of the Trump base. Better to focus on investigating and holding to account the profiteering of
Democrats' sweep of both houses, coupled with gains even in Republican bastions, is the most comprehensive repudiation of a sitting president since at least 1994
the Trump family and their associates. For their part, Republicans should recognise the harm the president has inflicted on their political brand and seek to distance themselves.
The other risk – for America, and the world – is that an “angry duck” president uses his control of foreign policy to vent his own frustrations. A rancorous and unrestrained Trump could do immense damage, by relaunching his Iran war or embarking on perilous new escapades elsewhere.
America's uplifting exercise in democracy is only the start of an effort to reverse the damage to US institutions. This will be the task of years. And while Americans have followed Hungarians and Serbs in rebuking crony authoritarianism, the global threat of nationalist populism is far from vanquished. It could soon make further inroads, notably in France. This is, however, a decisive moment in America's political story: the beginning of the end of the age of Trump.

在佛罗里达州南部的海湖庄园(Mar-a-Lago)仅十分钟车程处的帕姆比奇县狗展俱乐部(Palm Beach Kennel Club),这绝不是一场普通的“特朗普支持者(Trumpsterz)胜利二日(Triumph Tuesday)”。也不是一场普通的选举观摩派对。它被宣传为“胜利派对”(“帕姆比奇县最大的派对之一!”),提供免费小吃(“供应有限”),有DJ和舞蹈,整体是“一个壮观的夜晚!”
它甚至还将充当某种后场派对。宣传单上承诺:“我们邀请所有其他观摩派对的群体加入我们的‘胜利’部分。当您的观摩派对结束时,随时加入!”
当晚在狗展俱乐部宽敞的“帕多克餐厅”(Paddock Restaurant),气氛看起来确实相当欢快。身着紧身红裙、戴着红色MAGA帽的特朗普支持者们...

Jemima Kelly

t was no ordinary “Trumpsterz Tuesday Triumph” at the Palm Beach Kennel Club, just a ten-minute drive away from the presidential compound at Mar-a-Lago in southern Florida. Nor was it any ordinary election watch party. It had been billed as a “VICTORY PARTY” (“one of the largest . . . in Palm Beach County!”) with free appetisers (“while supplies last”), a DJ and dancing, altogether just “a spectacular evening!”
It would even function as a kind of after-party too. “We are inviting all other watch party groups to join us for the VICTORY portion of the night,” the flyer had promised. “Whenever YOUR watch party wraps up!”
And the mood at the start of the evening in the Kennel Club's large, carpeted "Paddock Restaurant" did seem jolly indeed. After Trump fans clad in tight red dresses, red Maga hats and
星条服装被塞进一道丰盛的开胃菜——炸鸡、小香肠卷、鸡串和奶油西红柿面条——当晚的主持人,一位深肤色、头发金色的76岁男子托米·吉安奎蒂(Tommy Gianquitti)和一位穿着闪光TRUMP拉拉队服、牛仔靴的64岁小个子女子莉莎·门克(Lisa Menk),登上舞台,高声唱起了“祝福美国”(God Bless America)。
他们面前是一尊特朗普的全身纸板人偶,双手大拇指向上,一位身穿“让美国成为佛罗里达”(MAKE AMERICA FLORIDA)T恤的女子在后面忍住了眼泪。
“耶!”托米喊道,“我们今晚要拿下众议院和参议院!”我刚从特朗普庄园北面几英里外的投票站出来,听到类似的乐观言论。一位邻居告诉我:“我们非常有信心。最近所有民调都错了,共和党人传统上会在投票日投票。”
周二下午早些时候,数日连续暴雨后的第一个晴朗时段,马拉拉戈(Mar-a-Lago)俱乐部成员开始打网球,维护人员修理前门的灯光,而上周在宁静的沃斯湖湖泊上安装的两枚防空导弹(在“加剧威胁环境”下)在浮动平台上闪耀。
当第一批选举结果开始在肯内尔俱乐部(Kennel Club)传出时,气氛仍然相对高涨。当佛罗里达州首位黑人州长共和党人拜伦·唐纳德斯(Byron Donalds)获胜,以及佛罗里达州共和党参议员艾希莉·穆迪(Ashley Moody)击败民主党社会主义者协会成员安吉·尼克森(Angie Nixon)时,现场爆发了欢呼。一位男子对另一位(可能是来访的)穿着印有各种枪支和“庆祝多样性”(CELEBRATE DIVERSITY)字样的T恤男子喊道:“我们在佛罗里达赢了——现在你需要在得克萨斯赢!”(如果他指的是詹姆斯·塔拉里科(James Talarico),特朗普称其为“Talafreako”,得克萨斯州最终让他成为1988年以来首位当选的民主党参议员。)
这是一种奇怪的观看派对,因为尽管有巨大的屏幕播放《真正美国的声音》(Real America's Voice),并显示史蒂夫·班农(Steve Bannon)一个不寻常巨大的脸部特写,但没有声音。因此,庆祝者们在舞台旁边跳舞,随着DJ克莱蒙斯(DJ Clemons)的“如果我不能拥有你”(If I Can't Have You)进行“查查滑步”(Cha Cha Slide),并互相旋转。这位70岁的DJ克莱蒙斯(DJ Clemons)早些时候用他原创的雷鬼歌曲《为特朗普跳跃》(Jump for Trump)点燃了整个房间。
这也意味着托米不得不自己宣读选举结果,随着晚上的进行,他似乎越来越不情愿。当民主党再次获胜时,人群起哄,他叹了口气说:“嘿,我只是传话人,抱歉。”他试图让人群保持积极:“现在还早,继续庆祝,保持乐观。”
然而,庆祝氛围迅速消退。跳舞逐渐停止,人们开始在手机上滚动,托米也放弃宣读不利结果。有一次,他试图让人群再次活跃起来:“众议院仍然悬念!别担心!”但遭遇了死一般的寂静。一位西棕榈滩(West Palm Beach)居民告诉我:“我为佛罗里达感到高兴。这是我目前唯一感到高兴的事。”
9点05分时,莉莎在特朗普全身人偶后面,正在努力拆解它,DJ克莱蒙斯跳上来帮忙。9点18分,托米登上麦克风宣布派对结束,只剩下几十人。
“一开始很热闹,”一位男子评价道,“但没过多久。”

star-spangled suits tucked into a buffet dinner of fried chicken, mini sausage rolls, chicken skewers and creamy tomato pasta – quite a generous idea of “appetisers” – it was time for a group singalong to “God Bless America”.
The evening's hosts, a deeply tanned, blonde-curtained 76-year-old named Tommy Gianquitti and a petite 64-year-old in a sequinned TRUMP cheerleading outfit and cowboy boots named Lisa Menk, took to the stage. There they sang loudly into their mics in front of a life-size cardboard cut-out of Donald Trump holding both his thumbs up, as a woman behind me in a "MAKE AMERICA FLORIDA" T-shirt held back her tears.
“Yeeah!” shouted Tommy. “We’re taking the House and the Senate tonight!” I had heard similar optimism from voters coming out of a polling station just a couple of miles north of Trump’s estate. “We’re very confident,” one of the president’s neighbours had told me. “All the polls have been wrong recently, and Republicans traditionally vote on the day.”
Earlier on Tuesday afternoon, the first break from torrential rain in several days was being taken advantage of at Mar-a-Lago (Trump himself was not around, having flown back up to Washington the morning after a lavish Halloween party in which he dressed up as himself). Club members played tennis, maintenance men fixed lights at the front entrance and the pair of surface-to-air missiles installed last week on a floating barge on the tranquil Lake Worth Lagoon amid a “heightened threat environment” gleamed in the Florida sunshine.
As the first results started to trickle in at the Kennel Club, spirits remained relatively high. There was a great cheer for Republican Byron Donalds' victory as the first black governor of Florida and also for Florida GOP Senator Ashley Moody's win over Angie Nixon, a member of the "Democratic Socialists of America". "We got the freak out in Florida – now you need to get the freak out in Texas!" one man shouted to another who must have been visiting and who was clad in a T-shirt covered in different kinds of gun and emblazoned with the words CELEBRATE DIVERSITY. (If he was referring to James Talarico, dubbed "Talafreako" by Trump, Texas went on to make him the first Democrat to win a Senate seat there since 1988.)
It was an odd sort of watch party because although there were huge screens showing Real America's Voice and featuring an improbably large version of Steve Bannon's face, no sound came out. So instead of actually watching, revellers danced at the side of the stage, doing the "Cha Cha Slide" and spinning one another round to "If I Can't Have You", courtesy of a 70-year-old Rastafarian named DJ Clemons, whose original reggae track "Jump for Trump" had set the room alight earlier in the evening.
That also meant it was left to Tommy to read out the results himself, which he seemed to take decreasing amounts of pleasure from as the evening progressed. “Hey I’m just the messenger, guys – I’m sorry,” he said as the crowd booed another Democrat victory. “It’s still early. Let’s continue to party and try to stay positive.”
Alas, the celebratory atmosphere began to ebb rapidly. The dancing petered out as people sat scrolling through their phones instead, and Tommy gave up reading out the bad results entirely. At one point, he tried to get the crowd going again. “The House is still up for grabs! Don’t worry about it!” but he was met with deathly silence. “I’m glad about Florida. That’s about all I’m glad about right now,” a West Palm Beach resident told me.
By 9.05pm, Lisa could be seen behind the life-size cut-out of Trump, struggling to disassemble him, so DJ Clemons jumped up to lend her a helping hand. By 9.18pm, Tommy took to the mic to announce the party's ending to the couple of dozen people still remaining.
"It was festive," was one man's assessment of the night. "For a while."

阅读上周大科技公司业绩报告(报告,10月30日和10月31日),人们可能会认为生成式AI已经进入了盖特纳(Gartner)的“幻滥期”。
实际上并非如此。资本下降而使用量上升,并非幻滥期。这是一种定价调整,每项争议技术都经历过这一阶段:家用录像机在贝塔麦克斯(Betamax)案后、录音音乐在纳斯特(Napster)后、共享出行在出租车战争后。
每次,消费者首先采用;机构等待律师;大多数早期企业倒闭;资金在规则确定时被重新定价。幸存者最终制定这些规则。
阻碍当今商业采用的不是情绪,而是围攻:145起AI版权诉讼、30个行业提供商帮助起草的规则、AI威胁行业引发的公众愤怒,以及内部的3个芯片短缺、电力短缺和投资者耐心不足。31张期望图无法看到这些,因为它没有涉及任何参与者。

Reading the coverage of last week's Big Tech results (Report, October 30 and October 31) one might conclude that generative AI had reached Gartner's "trough of disillusionment".
It has not. Capital falling while usage climbs is not disillusionment. It is a settlement, and every contested technology has passed through one: home video after the Betamax case, recorded music after Napster, ride-hailing after the taxi wars.
Each time, consumers adopted first; institutions waited for the lawyers; most early firms died; and the money was repriced just as the rules were settled. The survivors then wrote those rules.
What slows business adoption today is not a mood but a siege: 145 AI copyright suits, rules the largest providers help draft, public anger stoked by the industries AI threatens and, inside the walls, shortages of chips, power and investor patience. A chart of expectations cannot see any of this, because it has no actors.
Boards waiting for the trough to lift are watching the wrong signal. They should watch the gates: the first
are right, nobody broke the cryptography. One compromised laptop was enough to move billions.
An AI agent authorised to initiate and approve withdrawals would reproduce that concentration of power, this time in a machine with no sense of suspicion. It need not go rogue: an ordinary error or a malicious instruction could be enough. The vulnerability lies in allowing one agent to act without an independent check.

问题并非成功合伙人薪酬过低。而是太多普通合伙人薪酬过高。数十年来,大型律师事务所模式依赖客户支付高昂的小时费率,以维持在真正竞争市场中难以生存的薪酬水平。小时计费是这一安排的核心。在大多数企业中,效率低下会侵蚀利润。但在律师事务所,它可能增加利润。一位平庸律师花两倍时间完成工作,能产生两倍收入。
或许韦尔·戈什尔的教训不是律师事务所需要为明星律师支付更高薪酬,而是需要减少合伙人数量、降低费用,并建立一种客户支付结果而非小时费用的商业模式。

John Morley (“What Weil Gotshal has taught us about how law firms die”, Opinion, November 4) sees the departure of rainmakers as an existential threat to law firms. But perhaps he has mistaken the symptom for the disease.
Email: letters.editor@ft.com
The problem is not that successful partners are paid too little. It's that too many ordinary partners are paid far too much. For decades, the large law firm model has depended on clients paying inflated hourly rates to sustain pay levels that would struggle to survive in a genuinely competitive market. Hourly billing has been central to this arrangement. In most businesses, inefficiency eats into profits. In law firms, it can increase them. The mediocre lawyer who takes twice as long to do the job generates twice the revenue.
Perhaps the lesson of Weil is not that law firms need to pay their stars more, but that they need fewer partners, lower fees and a business model in which clients pay for results rather than hours.

关于支持老龄化人口的讨论,不能仅限于养老金支付。传统的退休概念已不再反映今天晚年生活的现实。许多六七十岁的人仍在工作、经营企业、照顾家人或为社区贡献力量。目标不应是让所有人工作更久,而是让人们拥有健康和独立,选择如何度过这些年。
这意味着更认真地思考预防、及时获得医疗服务,以及如何帮助人们保持健康和活力更长时间。健康状况不佳可能会限制个人的独立性。

We need to be willing to have a more honest conversation about the long-term sustainability of the state pension and the triple lock (“Andy Burnham’s ‘triple lock’ move reallocates, rather than reduces, spending”, Inside Politics, FT.com, October 1).
The debate about supporting an ageing population needs to go beyond pension payments. The traditional concept of retirement no longer reflects how later life looks today. Many people in their sixties and seventies are working, running businesses, caring for family members or contributing to their communities. The objective shouldn't be to make everyone work longer. It should be to give people the health and independence to choose how they spend those years.
That means thinking more seriously about prevention, timely access to healthcare and how we help people remain healthy and active for longer. Poor health can limit someone's independence.
We should be asking not simply how much more we spend on an ageing population, but how public money can best support financial security, good health and quality of life in later years.

OUTLOOK
金融界人士表示,民主党在周二的美国中期选举中取得的胜利为投资者开辟了一条回归某种正常生活的道路。多年来,资产管理者已经习惯了各种灾难性事件:一波三折的战争(导致通胀飙升)、对市场最核心机构(特别是美联储)信誉的攻击,以及一位自肥总统破坏国际联盟并任意挑选企业获胜者的荒诞景象。
你无法在公司的利润报告中直接找到这些伤害的具体条目,也无法在股价图表中看到其闪烁的痕迹。但除了特朗普的支持者,所有人都理解他的政策动摇了长期投资所依赖的可预测公平竞争。
现在,这场总统无法再通过虚张声势或争辩来逃避的惨败已经在望。结局即将到来。“我们必须从方程中消除一些随机性,私人银行隆德奥迪尔(Lombard Odier)首席投资官迈克尔·斯特罗巴克(Michael Strobaek)昨天表示。增强的制衡机制意味着共和党和特朗普在接下来的两年内将极其谨慎行事”,他补充道。
股市在选举结果逐渐公布时出现了波动。但在这些全球交易日平静时刻,过度关注这些短暂的价格波动通常没有太大意义。自此之后,股市已明显回升。
然而,市场的乐观情绪可能会因新一届国会带来的风险而受到抑制。其中一个风险是,新当选的民主党多数派可能会指向政府关门的可能性。
另一个风险是,联邦和州层面的新当选官员可能会强烈反对数据中心建设——这或许是对AI过度发展的有益缓解,但也可能成为AI基础设施竞赛中的重大障碍。高盛(Goldman Sachs)估计,民主党的胜利可能会导致短期数据中心建设禁令,影响约45%的计划中美国数据中心容量建设。这些禁令可能确实只是暂时的。但广泛且持续的管道阻塞风险让企业债券投资者(特别是)夜不能寐。
投资者近期还告诉我,他们担心受挫的特朗普可能在接下来的两年内以不可预测且有害的方式在外交政策上发难,甚至惩罚外国投资者,因为后者政府的“罪过”。
不过,目前这些风险仍然是遥远的尾部风险。“市场越来越可能将行政部门的意外政策变化解释为在下届总统选举或新的国内政治格局中有效期限内的”,德意志银行(Deutsche Bank)分析师乔治·萨拉维洛斯(George Saravelos)表示。
但有一种明显的方式,市场可能会迅速大幅亮化:伊朗战争的结束(或消散)。美国股指近几个月停滞不前的一个原因就是这场冲突,它推高了原油价格、助长了通胀顽固性,并提高了融资成本——这对市场中更周期敏感的部分造成了问题。考虑到柴油价格和美国选举活动中生活成本的普遍性,选民也注意到了这一点。
如果特朗普以任何借口从伊朗撤出,原油价格可能会比昨天更进一步暴跌。融资成本将下降,对多次额外加息的需求将消散。这将移除阻碍股市的主要约束。特朗普甚至可以据此邀功。
修正后的Markdown翻译:
无争议的选举结果消除了可能在未来几周内悬而未决的长期争吵和不确定性风险。这并不会让市场进入天堂般的境地——任何事物都不会。但它确实指明了广泛市场热情(不仅仅是AI领域)复苏的明显途径。

FINANCE humping wins for the Democratic Party in Tuesday's US midterm elections open up a path back to something

by Katie Martin
resembling normal life for investors. For years now, money managers have grown accustomed to all sorts of horrors: an on-again-off-again war that has fired up inflation; assaults on the integrity of the markets' most treasured institutions, chiefly the Federal Reserve; and the gaudy spectacle of a self-enriching president blowing up international alliances and picking corporate winners and losers.
You can't necessarily point to the line item in a company's earnings report or flicker in its share price chart where these injuries occurred. But aside from the Donald Trump cheerleaders, everyone understood his agenda as undermining the predictable fair play that supports long-term investments.
Now we have a clobbering that the president is not seeking to bluster or dispute his way out of. The end is in sight. “We have got to get some of the randomness out of the equation,” as Michael Strobaek, chief investment officer at private bank Lombard Odier, put it yesterday. Enhanced checks and balances mean “the Republicans and Trump will be extremely careful what they do in the next two years”, he said.
Stocks did wobble in overnight trading as the results trickled out. But it is rarely worth placing too much
emphasis on flighty price movements in quiet moments of the global trading day. Since then, stocks have picked up markedly.
Still, market enthusiasm may yet be curbed by the risks that lie ahead under the new-look Congress. One is the chance that the new Democratic majorities could point to government shutdowns ahead.
Another is the possibility that newly elected officials at the federal and state level could throw up powerful opposition to data centres – a helpful moderation on AI excesses perhaps, but also a major potential banana skin in the race for AI infrastructure. Goldman Sachs reckons Democratic wins “are likely to lead to short-term data centre moratoria, potentially affecting about 45 per cent of planned US data centre capacity buildout”. Those moratoria may indeed prove to be brief. But widespread protracted blockages in this pipeline are a risk that keep corporate bond investors, in particular, up at night.
Investors have also told me recently they worry that a humiliated Trump could lash out in foreign policy in unpredictable and damaging ways over the next two years, or even seek to punish foreign investors for the perceived sins of their governments.
For now, though, these appear to be distant tail risks. "The market is increasingly likely to interpret surprising policy shifts from the executive as time-bound by the next presidential election or the new
domestic political configuration," said George Saravelos, an analyst at Deutsche Bank.
But there is one obvious way that markets could turn significantly brighter very quickly: an end to (or fizzling out of) the war in Iran. One of the reasons stock indices in the US have been going nowhere for months is this conflict, which has whacked up oil prices, helped to make inflation sticky, and pulled up borrowing costs — a problem for more cyclically sensitive parts of the market. Given the prevalence of diesel prices and the cost of living in the US election campaigns, it appears voters have noticed too.
If Trump were to walk away from Iran on whatever pretext he likes, oil prices would probably tumble even further than they did yesterday. Borrowing costs would fall, and the perceived need for multiple additional interest rate rises would dissipate. It would remove one of the big constraints keeping the stock market trapped. Trump could even claim the credit.
The undisputed election result removes the risk of protracted bickering and uncertainty that could otherwise have hung over investors for weeks. It does not open the gates to nirvana in markets – nothing ever does. But it does point to obvious ways that broad-based market exuberance – not just in AI – could make a comeback.

美国中期选举
爱德华·卢斯
周二夜晚看起来标志着唐纳德·特朗普时代的终结。他对美国这场尖锐的个人性中期选举反击的回应很可能会非常激烈。然而,很难想象他如何能从如此强劲的民主党蓝潮中反弹过来,尤其是他曾敦促选民将选举视为对他的个人投票。违背建议,特朗普将选举变成了对他的公投。因此,他也承担了共和党的失败责任。
周二夜晚还有其他失败者。埃隆·马斯克,他向得克萨斯州参议院选举投入了超过2亿美元(20000万美元),发现即使是历史性的巨额捐款也无法买到民众的爱戴或选举结果。他的候选人肯·帕克森(Ken Paxton)输给了民主党候选人詹姆斯·塔拉里科(James Talarico),后者甚至在上一次民主党赢得得克萨斯州参议院席位时还未出生。这也是美国以色列公共事务委员会(AIPAC)的灾难之夜,该组织花费大量资金试图击败密歇根州的阿卜杜勒·艾尔-赛义德(Abdul El-Sayed),后者现在将成为美国历史上首位穆斯林参议员,并赢得了该州大部分犹太选民的支持。
维韦克·拉马斯瓦米(Vivek Ramaswamy)的表现也极为糟糕,这位特朗普的“接班人”在俄亥俄州州长选举中落败。他可能会因此退出政坛,因为他曾花费了自己大部分个人财富投入这场几个月前还被视为“囊中之物”的竞选。同样,林赛·格雷厄姆(Lindsey Graham)的姐姐达琳·格雷厄姆(Darline Graham)在南卡罗来纳州参议院选举中输给民主党候选人,这是该党近30年来首次赢得该州参议院席位。许多其他里程碑也在2026年美国中期选举中被突破,早期数据显示投票率史无前例。美国似乎最终摆脱了特朗普的魔咒。
在每一场竞选中,特朗普的强硬干预都遭遇了反弹。在第一个投票站关闭前一个小时,特朗普在电话采访中告诉我,他被自己疯狂的竞选日程所激励。总统通常会在中期选举中避免将自己的名字曝光。许多总统甚至会完全回避竞选活动。特朗普覆盖了
特朗普不仅将自己推向新闻中心,还故意轻视选民的担忧。他声称“负担能力”是民主党的“骗局”(Dumocrat)。尽管伊朗战争及其通胀影响是一个主导性议题,但特朗普告诉选民自己兑现了所有承诺。其中一项承诺是避免中东战争。有人认为他显现出认知衰退迹象。他在选举前一天神秘地说:“我实际上兑现的承诺比我许下的更多。”
或许他最具心理偏差的选择是,在华盛顿林肯纪念堂反射池前发表竞选闭幕演讲——这是特朗普的一个执着,但很少有美国人分享这种兴趣。在美国政治竞选史上,没有比这次更奇怪的闭幕辩论了。他一小时的演讲中大部分内容都围绕着这个池子。
“这个反射池现在看起来比以往任何时候都好,”特朗普说,声称奥巴马和拜登都没有升级这个水景。他还声称,“我们正在更换所有的草坪和公园。因为像人类一样,草也有生命。”据报道,一些白宫工作人员在电视上观看时,将脸埋在手中。
民主党将控制美国国会两院,这是一个连特朗普都可能认为“太大而无法操纵”的结果。这有两个直接后果:
第一,共和党将立即开始推举2028年候选人的竞争。实际上,佛罗里达州前州长罗恩·德桑蒂斯(Ron DeSantis)在选票尚未关闭时就已经暗示了这一点。他没有点名特朗普,但表示没有公职人员应该从担任公职中获利。这表明在一个以反腐败为主题的选举中,反腐浪潮正在兴起。
第二,特朗普的不可预测性可能会成为其任期中更大的特征。对于反对他的人来说,周二的结果是一场闪电袭击。但特朗普在戏剧性方面从不落后。无论他如何反应,2026年的结果都将改变美国的轨迹。2018年共和党的中间选举失败标志着特朗普的开始结束(借用丘吉尔的话)。而今年高投票率,十年后他下楼梯的那一刻,标志着他的结束开始。
US MIDTERMS
Edward Luce

uesday night looks like the beginning of the end of Donald Trump. His response to what amounts to America's stinging personal midterm rebuke is likely to be volatile. Yet it is hard to see how he could claw his way back from such a strong Democratic wave having urged voters to act as though his name were on the ballot. Against advice, Trump turned the elections into a referendum on him. He thus owns the Republican defeat.
There were plenty of other losers on Tuesday night. Elon Musk, who pumped more than \$200mn into the Texas Senate race, learnt that even historically large donations can't buy you love or results against so strong a public swing. His candidate, Ken Paxton, lost to Democratic nominee James Talarico, who was not even born the last time a Democrat won a Texas Senate seat. It was also a disastrous night for the once-powerful American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which spent a lot of money trying to defeat Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan. El-Sayed is now set to become the first Muslim senator in US history, having also got the majority of Michigan's Jewish vote.
It was a terrible night for Vivek Ramaswamy, the bombastic Trump understudy, who was defeated in Ohio's gubernatorial race. He might now bow out from politics having spent a chunk of his personal fortune on what was seen only a few months ago as a safe bet. Likewise, the late Lindsey Graham would be turning in his proverbial grave to watch his sister, Darline Graham, lose his South Carolina seat to a Democrat – the first time the party has won a Senate race there in almost 30 years. Many other landmarks have been passed in America's 2026 midterms in what early numbers suggested was a historically high turnout. America seems finally to have fallen out of Trump's spell.
In each race, Trump's heavy-handed input boomeranged. In a telephone interview with me an hour before the first polling stations closed, Trump said he had been energised by the enthusiasm he saw on his frenetic campaign schedule. Presidents normally strive to keep their name out of the headlines in midterm elections. Many avoid the hustings altogether. Trump covered the
map with the energy of a far younger person yet seems only to have exacerbated his party's electoral quagmire.
Not only did Trump thrust himself into the centre of each news cycle; he went out of his way to belittle the electorate's concerns. Affordability was a "Dumocrat [sic] hoax", Trump insisted. Though the Iran war and its inflationary effects was a dominant theme, Trump told voters he had kept every promise. One of those was to avoid wars in the Middle East. Some believe that he showed signs of cognitive decline. “I’ve actually kept far more promises than I made,” Trump cryptically suggested the day before the election.
Perhaps his most psychologically wayward choice was to deliver his big campaign closing speech in front of Washington's Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool — a Trump obsession that few Americans seem to share. In the annals of US political campaigning, no more bizarre closing argument can have been tried. The majority of Trump's one-hour peroration was about the pool.
“The reflecting pool right now looks better than it ever looked,” Trump said, having claimed that both Barack Obama and Joe Biden failed to upgrade the water feature. “We’re replacing all of the grass and all of the parks. Because like the human being, grass has a life also.” Some White House staff watching it on television reportedly buried their faces in their hands as he spoke.
Democrats will now control both chambers of the US Congress in a result that even Trump might find “too big to rig”. There are two immediate consequences. The first is that the Republican campaign to replace him as the 2028 nominee will begin at once. Indeed, Ron DeSantis, the outgoing governor of Florida, arguably kicked that off before the polls had even closed. Without naming Trump, he said no public official should make money from holding office. That suggests an anti-corruption backlash following an election where that theme topped many recent polls.
The second consequence is that Trump's unpredictability is likely to become an even larger feature of his presidency. To those who oppose him, Tuesday night was a lightning strike. But Trump is rarely outbid in the drama stakes. Whichever way he reacts, the 2026 result will change America's course. The 2018 Republican midterm defeat was the end of Trump's beginning, to borrow Churchill's phrase. This week's high turnout a decade after Trump descended that escalator spells the beginning of his end.

4月,匈牙利总理维克多·奥尔班(Viktor Orbán)最终失去了权力。他的意大利同僚、基督教“姐妹”乔尔吉亚·梅洛尼(Giorgia Meloni)在一场重大公投前也犯了判断错误。上个月,两位右翼领导人在总统选举中落败:巴西的弗拉维奥·博尔索纳罗(Flavio Bolsonaro)和塞尔维亚的阿莱沙·武契奇(Aleksandar Vučić)。尼格尔·法拉奇(Nigel Farage)领导的“改革英国党”(Reform UK)在2025年曾获得31%的支持率,在一个支离破碎的选民群体中已经是一个了不起的成就,但此后支持率下降了10个百分点。
无论拉丁文中“相当糟糕的一年”是什么(说“annus horribilis”用得过重),民粹主义正在经历这样的一年。美国共和党人在周二的中期选举中遭遇惨败,不仅是国会一院,而是两院都落入民主党手中。这是如何发生的?说到底,唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump),像其他许多民粹主义者一样,忽略了民粹主义的经济部分。除了对关税的偏好和对奥巴马医改的停战,很难将他与昔日自由放任的共和党区分开来。当消费者普遍满意时,这一点并不重要。当通胀上升时,它就成了选举负担。
通胀被认为对执政者是致命的。但卢拉(Lula)在巴西幸存下来。英国首相安德鲁·伯恩哈姆(Andy Burnham)在民调中获得了提升。在2026年,通胀真正惩罚的政治家是那些看起来冷酷无情的人。过去一年,随着消费者的抱怨,特朗普及其同党赚取了超过10亿加元(10亿美元)的税前利润,部分来自数字货币领域。几乎一半的2024年共和党选民,更不用说独立选民了,在中期选举中将“白宫的腐败、自利和利益冲突”作为关注点。当通胀率低时,选民不在意这些事——这些事被当作“MAGA”粗俗魅力的一部分而被嘲笑——现在却让他们感到不安。
特朗普的外国朋友也遇到了同样的问题。法拉奇正在调查一笔未申报的500万英镑(500万英镑)的礼物,即使在伦敦,这也是一笔相当可观的工资。弗拉维奥(Flavio)?一项洗钱调查。奥尔班(Orbán)?关于寻租资本主义的指控。左派并不清白,但右派政治家对这种事如此盲目,以至于在艰难时期引发的怨恨,称他们为“民粹主义者”似乎是过度的恭维。
除了自利或对自利的怀疑之外,还有经济政策的问题。MAGA在这个问题上两面派。它既是“普通人的”运动,也是比特币投机者的运动;既是父权主义政府的运动,也是科技自由主义的运动;既是去工业化的中西部运动,也是低税收的阳光带运动。在某种程度上,某些时候,这些内部矛盾是无法容忍的。消费者通胀就是它。特朗普本人发动的对伊朗的战争导致部分价格上涨,部分价格上涨源自特朗普本人发动的对伊朗的战争,这进一步增添了这一历史时刻的诗意。
民粹主义者经常选择“银匙领导人”也并不帮忙。特朗普,像弗拉维奥一样,是一个幸运的儿子。法拉奇,像鲍里斯·约翰逊一样,在一个只有大约6%的英国人接受私立教育的国家上过私立学校。如果这些人是经济左派——“我们阶级的叛徒”,在周恩来的假设言论中——他们的特权就不是问题。实际上,如果通胀率是1.8%,那也不是问题。但特权、放任的经济倾向、上升的消费者价格和声称的自肥?让他们几乎太容易被框定为脱离实际。注意,两位最成功的民粹主义者——梅洛尼和印度的纳伦德拉·莫迪——实际上来自他们浪漫化的大众。

n April, the Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán lost power at last. His Italian counterpart and "Christian sister" Giorgia Meloni
misjudged a major referendum just before. Last month, two rightwingers flunked presidential elections: Flavio Bolsonaro in Brazil, Aleksandar Vučić in Serbia. Nigel Farage's Reform UK, which polled 31 per cent in 2025, some feat in a fragmented electorate, has since bled ten percentage points.
Whatever the Latin is for “fairly bad year” – annus horribilis is too strong – populism is living through one. The defeat of US Republicans on Tuesday is its culmination. Not one house of Congress, but both, fell to the Democrats in midterm elections. How did it come to this? In the end, Donald Trump, like lots of populists, forgot the economic bit of populism. Besides a liking for tariffs and a ceasefire in the war against Obamacare, it is hard to distinguish him from a laissez-faire Republican of yesteryear. When consumers were broadly content, this was a minor point. When inflation rose, it became an electoral liability.
Inflation is said to be fatal for incumbents. But Lula survived in Brazil. The UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham has gained in the polls. In 2026, the politicians that inflation really punishes are those who seem callous. Over the past year, as consumers wailed, Trump and his kin made over \$1bn in pre-tax profits, in part from the digital currencies sector. Almost half of 2024 Republican voters, never mind independents, went into the midterms citing White House “corruption, self-dealing and conflicts of interest” as a concern. Things that voters didn’t mind when inflation was low – that were laughed off as part of Maga’s raffish charm – now unhinge them.
Trump's foreign friends run into the same problem. Farage is under investigation over an undeclared gift of £5mn, which is a living wage even in London. Flavio? A money laundering probe. Orbán? Allegations of crony capitalism. The left isn't innocent but politicians of the right have such a blind spot for this stuff, for the resentment it causes in hard times, that terming them "populist" seems excessive flattery.
Even aside from the self-dealing, or suspicions thereof, there is the matter of economic policy. Maga faces two ways on this. It is a movement of “real people” but also bitcoin spivs, of paternalist government but also tech libertarianism, of the deindustrialised Midwest but also the low-tax sunbelt. Something, at some point, was going to make the internal contradictions untenable. Consumer inflation was it. That some of the price surge stems from Trump’s own war in Iran just adds to the poetry of the historical moment.
It doesn't help that populists so often choose silver-spoon leaders. Trump, like Flavio, is a fortunate son. Farage, like Boris Johnson, went to private school in a country where only about 6 per cent of people do that. If these men were economic leftists – “traitors to our class”, in Zhou Enlai’s supposed words – their privilege would be no issue. In fact, if inflation were 1.8 per cent, it would be no issue. But the privilege and the deregulating instincts and the rising consumer prices and the alleged self-enrichment? It makes them almost too easy to frame as out-of-touch. Notice that two of the most successful populists, Meloni and India’s Narendra Modi, really came from the masses they romanticise.

American populism can survive the midterms but in different form: less decadent and libertarian, less billion-
在谁的领导下呢?史蒂夫·班农是一位经济民粹主义者——一位AI怀疑论者——但自他成为白宫内部人士已近十年。约翰·德文斯(JD Vance)似乎意识到共和党必须恢复2016年工人阶级的精神。问题是,这位最“在线”的保守派是否能够真正与三维哺乳动物打交道。特朗普的天赋在于做出和说出极端言行,却不会让人感到奇怪。当他的下属尝试这样做时,你会担心运动的未来。
也许时间早就已经磨灭了特朗普,无论其政策如何。那些在民调中表现最好的民粹主义者,比如法国和德国的民粹主义者,都是那些从未执政的人。其他人则有“前科”(如英国警方可能称呼的那样)。弗拉维奥(Flavio)与他父亲的政权有关联。法拉奇(Farage)虽然从未担任内阁职务,但他参与了《脱欧》这一自2016年以来英国的核心治理理念。特朗普正在执政第二个任期,进入第九个十年。总统的最后一次中期选举本来就不应该走得太好。只是,如果有更多的经济干预,或者至少不再为特朗普的利益铺路,结果可能只是失败,而不是彻底的耻辱。他十年前发动的对精英的阶级战争,却从未兑现。
中期选举结果并不应让自由派过于兴奋,不仅仅因为特朗普将继续掌控世界上最强大的武装力量,还将有26个月。如果经济不满是击败他的原因,那么其他许多重要问题并未得到解决。选民对他的反应似乎如下:试图干预选举?糟糕。与克里姆林宫勾结?不行。加油站价格上涨?现在我们在这里划出了底线。
如果人们优先考虑家庭财务,这是正确且自然的。但最终,为了宪政民主的生存,选民还必须关心游戏规则。经济而非伦理击垮了这位最务实的男人,这既合理,在某种程度上,或许是他最后的胜利。

aire-smitten. Under whose leadership, though? Steve Bannon is an economic populist – an AI sceptic – but almost a decade has passed since he was a White House insider. JD Vance seems to understand that Republicans must recover the working-class spirit of 2016. The question is whether that most online of conservatives will ever master interaction with three-dimensional mammals. Trump's genius is to do and say extreme things without weirding people out. When his subordinates attempt it, you fear for the future of the movement.
Perhaps time would have ground Trump down, regardless of his policies. The populists who are polling best, such as the French and German ones, are those who have never governed. The rest have what a British cop might call “previous”. Flavio is tied to his old man’s regime. Farage, though he has never held ministerial office, co-authored Brexit, the UK’s governing meta-idea since 2016. Trump is on his second term, and ninth decade. A president’s last midterms aren’t meant to go well. It is just that, with more economic intervention, or just less feathering of the Trump nest, the result might have been mere defeat rather than total humiliation. He started a class war against elites a decade ago and never lived up to it.
The midterm results should not cheer liberals too much, and not just because Trump will command the world's mightiest armed forces for another 26 months. If it is true that economic grievances are what defeated him, then lots of other important issues didn't. The swing voters' reaction to him seems to go as follows. Attempted election subversion? Bad. Kremlin-abetting? Not OK. Higher prices at the gas pump? Now that is where we draw the line.
If people prioritise their household finances, that is right and natural. At some point, though, for constitutional democracy to survive, voters have to care about the rules of the game too. That it was economics rather than ethics that brought low this most transactional of men is fitting, and perhaps, in a sense, his last win.

共和党人在思考其在唐纳德·特朗普之后的未来时,必须认清:总统执政方针中那些明显具有特朗普特色的元素,并未实现其目标,也未推动经济繁荣。在由民粹主义和经济民族主义驱动的政策中,与传统共和党共识大相径庭的最突出举措是贸易战。其两大主要目标是增加制造业就业和缩小贸易赤字。然而,这两个目标都是误导性的,且均未实现。
2017年1月,特朗普首届任期开始时,制造业就业占比为8.5%。至2025年1月,特朗普当前任期开始时,这一比例已下降至8%,并在今年9月(最新可用数据月份)保持不变。
与此同时,货物贸易赤字非但未缩小,反而扩大。自2017年1月以来,赤字几乎加倍。虽然自2025年1月以来,由于企业争相进口商品以避免特朗普即将实施的关税上调,贸易赤字有所缩小,但过去一年内,赤字增长了55%。
特朗普在当前任期内推行的显著限制美国移民流入政策,是另一项具有民族主义民粹主义特色的举措。该政策的目标可能是提升本土出生美国人的经济表现。但根据我的计算,本土出生人口的就业率自2025年1月以来已下降,而外籍出生人口的就业率则上升。将2026年9月与2025年9月的数据对比,以及比较25至54岁本土与外籍美国人在该期间的经济表现,均显示出相似趋势。此外,本土出生工人在特朗普当前任期内的工资增长速度,并未超过移民工人。
2026年预算赤字高达2万亿加元,这是美国历史上非战争非衰退时期规模最大的赤字。虽然共和党的财政记录尚有不足,特朗普对财政责任的漠视已超出常规,其2026年的预算赤字达到$2万亿加元,远超以往任何非战时非衰退时期水平。

s Republicans seek to learn lessons for their post-Donald Trump future, it is important for both the party and the conservative
movement to recognise that the distinctly Trumpian elements of the president's agenda have failed to achieve their objectives and to advance economic prosperity. Of the policies that have been motivated by populism and economic nationalism – marking a sharp departure from the traditional GOP consensus – the most prominent has been the trade war. Its two main goals were to increase manufacturing employment and reduce the trade deficit. Each of these goals is wrong-headed, and neither has been met.
In January 2017, as Trump's first term began, 8.5 per cent of employees worked in the manufacturing sector. In January of 2025, the start of Trump's current term, the share had fallen to 8 per cent, where it remained this September (the most recent month with available data).
Meanwhile, the goods trade deficit has grown larger, not smaller. It has nearly doubled since January 2017. While the deficit has narrowed since January 2025 because businesses rushed to import goods to get ahead of Trump's looming tariff increases, over the past year it grew by 55 per cent.
Trump's push for a sharp reduction in immigrant inflows to the US during his current term has been another signature nationalist-populist policy. The goal was presumably to boost the economic outcomes of native-born Americans. But, according to my calculations, employment rates for the native-born population have fallen since January 2025, while rates for the foreign-born have increased. Comparing September 2026 to September 2025 shows a similar trend, as does comparing economic outcomes among native and foreign-born
Americans aged 25 to 54 over that period. Nor have native-born workers seen their earnings grow faster than immigrants during Trump's current term.
At \$2tn, the budget deficit for 2026 is the largest outside a war or recession in US history. While the GOP's fiscal record leaves much to be desired, Trump's lack of concern about fiscal responsibility is a departure from the norm. Past Repub-
共和党政府在任内曾尝试(或未能)削减社会保障和医疗保险(Medicare)支出,这两项是预测中结构性赤字的主要驱动因素。
这些失败损害了共和党的政治前景。在高通胀和通胀率高于目标的经济环境下,特朗普的贸易战成为政治负担。民调显示,近两-thirds的中期选民认为特朗普的关税政策损害了经济。
尽管特朗普成功加强南部边境安全深受欢迎,但其驱逐和执法措施却更加引发争议。同时,其财政政策对政治敏感的利率施加了上行压力,包括住房抵押贷款利率。
特朗普的执政方式展现出对法治和有限政府原则的漠视。他试图将刑事司法系统武器化,以迫使联邦储备委员会(美联储)屈从于其意愿,这损害了繁荣的基础,并让美国看起来像一个香蕉共和国。他还通过持有私营公司股权(特别是英特尔)的方式,进一步威胁经济稳定。
此外,政府运作常常显得混乱且低效。埃隆·马斯克的“狗狗币”项目(Doge)成效甚微。同样,财政部长斯科特·米纳德(Scott Minerd)最近试图通过言语干预债券市场,以期获得更低收益率,这质疑了政府的能力。所有这些因素都加剧了特朗普的低支持率,并影响了选民在选举中的判断。
特朗普的经济计划中仍有许多值得称道之处,包括其2017年和2025年的商业税改,这些改革将通过鼓励投资来提高生产力增长。他对人工智能(AI)发展的引导立场也恰当,即政府应“不做有害之事”。此外,他鼓励国内能源生产、推动经济去管制,并整顿南部边境秩序。
这些政策要素本应适合传统共和党政府的框架,但失败的政策则不适用。
如果共和党希望在2028,保住白宫,他们应全面审视特朗普的经济计划,并区分其优点与缺点。

lican administrations have pursued – with and without success – cuts to social security and Medicare spending, the main drivers of projected structural deficits.
These failures have hurt the GOP's political fortunes. In an economy with high prices and above-target inflation, Trump's trade war was a political liability. Exit polls showed that nearly two-thirds of midterm voters think Trump's tariffs have hurt the economy.
And although Trump's success at securing the southern border is popular, his deportation and enforcement efforts have been more divisive. Meanwhile, his fiscal policy has put upward pressure on politically salient interest rates, including on home mortgage loans.
Trump's approach has shown a disregard for the rule of law and the principle of limited government. His willingness to weaponise the criminal justice system in order to bend the Federal Reserve to his will eroded a foundation of prosperity and made the US look like a banana republic. Taking equity stakes in private companies, notably Intel, is another threat.
The administration has also often appeared chaotic and ineffective. Although reducing government spending and increasing efficiency are worthy goals, Elon Musk's Doge effort amounted to very little. Similarly, Treasury secretary Scott Bessent's recent efforts to jawbone the bond market into delivering lower yields call into question the administration's competence. All of this contributed to Trump's low approval rating and voters' judgment at the ballot box.
There is still much to admire about Trump's economic programme, including his signature 2017 and 2025 business tax reforms, which will boost productivity growth by encouraging investment. His approach to AI advances has been appropriately guided by the view that the government should "do no harm". And he has encouraged domestic energy production, pushed to deregulate the economy and brought order to the southern border.
These elements of the president's agenda would have fit comfortably in a traditional GOP administration. The failed policies would not.
If Republicans want to keep the White House in 2028, they should look holistically at Trump's economic programme and separate the wheat from the chaff.

当安索普(Anthropic)准备上市时,一场为融资人工智能革命而展开的史无前例的资本竞争正在拉开帷幕。考虑购买该巨型企业股份的投资者应当花费片刻时间,思考员工和高管所获分配的奖励规模。
大多数估值最高的科技创业公司都会因这些支付产生巨额开支。许多公司将这些开支推迟至上市后才予以确认。
当安索普于周一发布修订后的上市文件时,预计其未确认的股票基础补偿费用约为$32亿——一个前所未有的数字。
这些巨额的股票基础补偿费用可能会进一步上升。安索普披露称,其已批准额外的上市前奖励,但未具体说明金额。
此类规模虽然罕见,但行为本身并非新鲜事。我的研究显示,2014年至2024年间上市的美国独角兽企业(由风险投资支持、估值超过10亿美元的创业公司)普遍将大量股票基础补偿费用推迟至上市后才予以确认。通过这种方式,它们冒着在上市当季发布财报时,让投资者措手不及的风险。如果之前推迟的补偿成本显著,股票市场可能会做出负面反应。

s Anthropic prepares to go public, setting in motion an unprecedented race for capital to finance the AI revolution, investors who
are considering buying a stake in this enormous venture should take a moment to think about the scale of rewards that are being handed out to employees and executives.
Most highly valued tech start-ups incur substantial expenses from these payments. Many defer those expenses until after they have joined the stock market.
When Anthropic released its amended listing document on Monday, it projected total unrecognised stock-based compensation expenses of approximately \$32bn – an unprecedented figure.
These massive projected stock-based expenses will probably climb higher. Anthropic disclosed that it has approved additional pre-IPO awards but has not specified the amount.
The scale here is unusual but the behaviour is not. My research shows that US unicorns – venture capital-backed start-ups valued at over \$1bn – that went public between 2014 and 2024 largely deferred recognition of sizeable stock-based compensation expenses until after their IPO. By doing so, they risked catching investors off guard when they released earnings for the quarter in which they went public. If the previously deferred compensation costs were significant, there was a greater risk that the stock market would react negatively.
看看优步(Uber)的情况。这家位于旧金山的网约车公司于2019年5月上市后,报告了$3.6亿美元的之前延迟的股权激励费用——这一因素贡献了该期$5.2亿美元的净亏损。公司股价在业绩公告后下跌。
安索普(Anthropic)与优步一样,使用一种称为双重触发限制性股票单位(RSUs)的股权奖励来吸引和留住优秀员工。这些是一种股权奖励,在满足特定条件(如IPO)后,将公司股票授予高管和员工。员工不需要立即获得大额薪酬,而是有机会在创业公司上市或被收购时获得超额回报。
这种基于流动性的触发机制允许这些公司将激励费用延迟至IPO变得可能时。公司通常以IPO在之前任何报告期内不太可能发生为由,来合理化这种延迟。
因此,安索普在其截至30月9月的$1.26亿美元操作亏损中,没有包含累计的$8.2亿美元股权激励费用。
对于在公司上市前重大股权奖励费用尚未计入营业费用时购买其公开交易股票的投资者来说,这种低报行为可能会带来成本。我的研究显示,将股权激励费用$107百万美元(按通胀调整)以上延迟至IPO后,与市场相关的股价下跌风险较高。
IPO后,费用并不会停止。公司通常会在上市前加大员工奖励活动,这意味着显著的激励费用将继续影响财务业绩。
安索普股票的投资者需要意识到,公司今年及明年可能会报告大量来自IPO前奖励活动的营业费用。
为了更好地保护投资者,应当认真考虑修改允许股权激励费用延迟至IPO后的会计规则。为了赋予创业公司更多透明度,应当敦促它们在成为公众公司后,更加公开预期的费用。

Look at Uber. After the San Francisco ride-hailing company went public in May 2019, it reported \$3.6bn of previously deferred stock-based compensation expenses – something that contributed to a \$5.2bn net loss for the period. The company's share price fell after the earnings announcement.
Anthropic, like Uber, uses a type of equity award called double-trigger restricted stock units (RSUs) to attract and retain talented employees. These are equity awards that provide company shares to executives and employees once certain conditions are met, such as an IPO. Instead of receiving a large salary immediately, employees have the chance for an outsized payday if the start-up goes public or is acquired.
The liquidity-based trigger allows these companies to defer the compensation expenses until the IPO becomes probable. Companies typically justify deferral by saying that the IPO was not probable for any prior reporting period.
This is why Anthropic did not include the accumulated \$8.2bn in stock-based compensation expenses in its reported \$1.26bn operating loss for the nine months to 30 September.
For investors who buy into a company's publicly traded stock before heavy equity award expenses are reported as part of operating expenses, these under-reporting practices can be costly. My research shows that deferring stock-based compensation expenses of \$107mn or more (adjusted for inflation) until after an IPO is associated with a high risk of stock price decline relative to the market.
Expenses do not stop after the IPO either. Companies often intensify employee award activity ahead of a listing, meaning substantial compensation expenses will continue to impact financial results.
Investors in Anthropic stock need to be aware that the company will report massive operating expenses from its pre-IPO award activity this year and, in all likelihood, next year too.
Serious consideration should be given to reforming the accounting rules that permit deferral of stock-based compensation expenses until after an IPO. In order to afford greater protections to investors, start-ups should be pushed to be more transparent about the expenses they expect to report once they become public companies.

飙升的石油和天然气价格推动货币集团通胀预估值至$4%(百分之四)
奥拉夫·斯托贝克(Olaf Storbeck)——法兰克福
欧元区通胀率在10月份飙升至三年高点的4%,主要受到飙升的石油和天然气价格影响,进一步压缩了家庭的购买力。
欧盟统计局(Eurostat)昨日发布的初步估计显示,该数据较9月份的3.8%上升,与路透社调查中经济学家的预测一致。
年化能源通胀继续上升至20.8%,为2023年1月以来的最高水平,高于9月份的18.9%。10月份标志着欧盟21个成员国连续第8个月年化通胀率超过欧洲央行(ECB)中长期目标的2%。
欧洲央行行长克里斯蒂娜·拉加德(Christine Lagarde)上周警告称,更大规模且持续的能源冲击“可能会推高通胀并降低增长”。她暗示,政策制定者在下月12月的会议上可能会将利率上调0.25%(四分之一个百分点),尽管上周他们保持了利率不变。
年化核心通胀率(不包括波动性较大的食品和能源价格)保持不变,仍为2.5%,昨日发布的数据显示。
密切关注的服务业通胀率上升至3.3%,较9月份的3.2%有所上升。该指标是衡量国内价格压力的指标,已连续超过三年高于欧洲央行的目标。
穆迪分析(Moody’s Analytics)经济学家卡米尔·科瓦尔(Kamil Kovar)表示:“能源价格在10月份的通胀上升中占据了核心位置。”他警告称,接下来几个月,由于“更低的批发油价和柴油价格将被更高的天然气和电力价格所抵消”,打击将持续存在。
科瓦尔表示,他预计欧洲央行不仅在12月,还“可能在3月”提高利率。
ING全球宏观经济负责人卡斯滕·布雷斯基(Carsten Brzeski)表示:“今天的通胀数据将欧洲央行更接近12月加息一步。”他还指出“低迷的基础通胀压力”,认为“12月的加息可能也是最后一次”。
彭通宏观经济学分析师表示,欧洲央行即将更换高层领导人,这给明年政策前景带来了“野心变数”。
彭通分析师称,如果拉加德和执行委员会成员伊莎贝尔·施纳贝尔(Isabel Schnabel)被更温和的候选人取代,治理委员会可能会“倾向于在利率上调超过2.75%之前保持克制”。
欧洲央行自2002.年2月美国与伊朗开战引发石油和天然气价格飙升以来,已经两次提高了借贷成本。在6月和9月分别将基准利率上调0.25%(四分之一个百分点)后,欧洲央行的政策利率已上调至当前水平。
近期对更高通胀和上升的公共债务的担忧推动了欧元区借贷成本的上升,使得法国10年期国债收益率在上个月首次自2002.以来突破5%,之后略有回落。
欧元兑加元汇率在11月美国中期选举结果公布后曾上涨,但昨日通胀数据公布后几乎未受影响。截至伦敦下午晚些时候,单一货币兑加元上涨0.2%,报\$1.122。

Soaring oil and gas prices propel flash estimate to $4\%$ for currency bloc
OLAF STORBECK — FRANKFURT
Eurozone inflation climbed to a three-year high of 4 per cent in October as surging oil and gas prices weighed on households' spending power.
The flash estimate published by Eurostat yesterday was up from 3.8 per cent in September and in line with economists' forecasts in a Reuters poll.
Annual energy inflation continued to rise to 20.8 per cent, the highest level since January 2023 and above the 18.9 per cent rate in September. October marked the eighth month in a row the annual inflation rate in the 21-country bloc was above the European Central Bank medium-term target of 2 per cent.
ECB president Christine Lagarde last week warned that a bigger and longer energy shock was “likely to drive up inflation and lower growth”. She signalled that policymakers stood ready to increase interest rates by a quarter point at their next meeting in December after keeping them on hold last week.
Annual core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, remained unchanged at 2.5 per cent, the figures released yesterday showed.
The closely watched figure for services inflation rose to 3.3 per cent from 3.2 per cent in September. The figure, a gauge of domestic price pressures, has remained well above the ECB's target for more than three years.
“Energy prices were front and centre” in October’s inflation rise, said Moody’s Analytics economist Kamil Kovar, who warned that the hit would continue in the coming months, when “lower wholesale oil and diesel prices will be more than compensated by higher gas and electricity prices”.
Kovar said he expected that the ECB would raise interest rates not only in December, but also “likely in March”.
Carsten Brzeski, global head of macro at ING, said: "Today's inflation numbers have brought the central bank one step closer to a December rate hike." He also pointed to "muted underlying inflationary pressure", which he saw as an argument that "the December hike could also be the last one".
Analysts at Pantheon Macroeconomics said an impending change of top figures at the ECB had introduced a “wild card” for next year’s policy outlook.
If Lagarde and executive board member Isabel Schnabel were replaced by dovish candidates, the governing council could end up “erring on the side of holding fire” on raising rates beyond 2.75 per cent, they said.
The ECB has already increased borrowing costs twice since the start of the
US-Iran war in February triggered a surge in oil and gas prices, raising its benchmark rate by a quarter point in June and again in September.
Worries over higher inflation and rising public debt triggered a surge in Eurozone borrowing costs in recent weeks, pushing yields of French 10-year government bonds above 5 per cent last month for the first time since 2002. They have since retreated slightly.
The euro, which had gained against the dollar since the US midterm election results, was little moved by the inflation figure. The single currency was up 0.2 per cent against the greenback by late afternoon in London, at \$1.122. Additional reporting by Ian Smith

亚洲国家在与基辅关系紧张之际优先发展与莫斯科关系
丹尼尔·图多尔 —— 首尔
韩国总统李在明热情洋溢地欢迎从北极航线归来的集装箱船“PanStar Acro”船员。他称赞船员在“遥远海域”展现的“勇气和责任感”,并承诺“以坚定行动回应,为韩国开辟新道路”。
欧洲驻首尔外交官对此反应冷淡。沿俄罗斯北极海岸航行的北方海路(Northern Sea Route)可将欧洲前往苏伊士运河的航程缩短10天,但需要与莫斯科展开广泛合作。
此次韩国首次尝试的航行,于上月返回,象征着欧洲官员眼中韩国在外交和商业上对俄“倾斜”的趋势,尽管克里姆林宫进一步加深与朝鲜的合作,并继续在乌克兰发动战争。
这些担忧在上月有关报告中进一步加剧,报告称7月和8月期间,韩国向俄罗斯运送了超过176,000吨燃料,其中大部分为柴油,包括受到英国和欧盟制裁的油轮。
韩国与莫斯科关系的发展令一些欧洲外交官质疑,韩国——他们曾视为“志同道合”的民主国家,拥有共同的经济和安全利益——是否仍是可靠的合作伙伴。
一位要求匿名的驻首尔欧洲外交官表示:“[韩国人]并不真正‘志同道合’”。他们的态度是“乌克兰战争不会永远持续下去,他们希望战争结束后尽快与俄罗斯重新开展业务”。
欧洲人对韩国对俄态度的担忧可追溯至李在明执政之前。韩国对计算机数控(CNC)机床的出口管制执行不力,这些机床可用于生产军械,已成为特别让人沮丧的问题。
2025,年2月,两名韩国高管因非法向俄罗斯出口价值73亿韩元(约$5.5万美元)的CNC机床被判刑,但他们只被判缓刑一年,公司仅被罚款4000万韩元。
一些观察人士表示,这些担忧在李在明于2025.年6月上任后有所加剧。韩国外交安全部教授、韩国外国语大学国际政治系教授梅森·里奇(Mason Richey)表示,韩俄关系自去年秋季以来一直在“悄然改善”。
2025,年11月,韩国国家情报院(Institute for National Security Strategy,INSS)与俄罗斯国际事务委员会(Russian International Affairs Council,RIAC)举办了一次闭门会议,后者是一家由克里姆林宫支持的智库,旨在寻找政治对话机会及“扩大经济合作的前景”,根据RIAC网站所述。
2025.年6月,INSS主席金成培(Kim Seongbae)前往莫斯科参加了一次闭门战略对话,与俄罗斯同行会面,RIAC报道称。
上月,李在明任命宋永吉(Song Young-gil)为和平外交特别顾问,宋曾是其民主党的前领导人。宋还曾担任韩国驻俄特使,长期主张与莫斯科建立更密切关系,并在2013年在克里姆林宫获得俄罗斯“友谊勋章”,由普京总统颁发。
里奇表示,像国家安全顾问尹成洛(Wi Sung-lac)和外交部周边人士等官员似乎在李在明心中的影响力在减弱,而像宋永吉这样的人物则“在俄事务上更能得到总统的倾听”。
俄罗斯外交部副部长安德烈·鲁登科(Andrey Rudenko)上月表示,莫斯科已收到“南韩当局关于其在乌克兰战争结束后恢复关系的意图声明”,据俄罗斯国家通讯社塔斯社报道。
南韩外交部在致《金融时报》的声明中表示:“一些人士对南韩过度倾向俄罗斯的担忧与事实不符。
‘作为国际社会负责任的成员,韩国政府支持并参与全球努力,旨在结束乌克兰战争并恢复和平。’”
一名韩国国家安全官员否认向俄罗斯出口柴油、汽油和喷气燃料,并补充称当局正在调查是否存在虚假申报目的。
同时,首尔与基辅的关系因九月份揭露两名朝鲜战俘被从乌克兰转移至韩国而恶化。李总统指责基辅违反了转移保密协议,并要求道歉。韩国上月首次自2008年以来召回驻基辅大使,并表示将撤回额外外交人员。乌克兰官员则否认韩国的说法,称其为“外交误解”。
安山政策研究院的金赛美(Kim Saeme)警告称,过度强调韩国对俄罗斯的“倾斜”态度,并指出李总统的政府“已远离所谓的‘基于价值观的外交’,而是采取更务实、以利益为导向的方法”。
她补充说,首尔对莫斯科的态度反映了韩国长期以来对俄罗斯作为强大邻国的看法,认为不能忽视或敌对。
“韩国外交政策历史上一直被‘四大强国’框架构建:美国、中国、日本和俄罗斯”,金赛美表示。
但她质疑该框架的相关性,认为当前与莫斯科的关系“必须从认清俄罗斯正在加强朝鲜军事能力这一事实开始,而这正在增加对韩国自身安全的威胁”。
伦敦国王学院的拉蒙·帕切科·帕多(Ramón Pacheco Pardo)指出,多个欧洲国家仍是俄罗斯能源的重要客户。法国九月份从俄罗斯进口的液化天然气金额较上月翻倍,达到€446百万(44600万欧元),据能源与清洁空气研究中心(Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air)数据。帕切科·帕多表示:“欧洲对俄罗斯的立场并不统一。”
欧洲的影响力也受到韩国国防工业日益重要性的限制,该工业帮助补充了为武装乌克兰而耗尽的欧洲库存。仅波兰自2022年以来就订购了超过$18亿加元(\180亿美元)的韩国坦克、火炮、战斗机和火箭发射器。
欧洲政府“仍然需要武器——正是因为[乌克兰]局势”,里奇(Richey)表示。

Asian nation prioritises its relationship with Moscow amid strained Kyiv ties
DANIEL TUDOR — SEOUL
South Korea's President Lee Jae Myung was effusive as he welcomed home the crew of the container ship PanStar Acro from a voyage across the Arctic.
Hailing the crew's “courage and sense of responsibility” on “distant seas”, Lee pledged to “answer with unwavering action and open a new path for the Republic of Korea”.
European diplomats in Seoul were less enthused. Sailing the Northern Sea Route, which hugs the Russian Arctic coast, shaves 10 days off European journeys via the Suez Canal but requires extensive co-operation from Moscow.
The voyage, South Korea's first, which returned last month, was emblematic of what European officials see as a diplomatic and commercial tilt by Seoul towards Moscow, even as the Kremlin deepens its partnership with North Korea and continues its war in Ukraine.
Those concerns were heightened by reports last month that more than 176,000 tonnes of fuel, mostly diesel, were shipped from South Korea to Russia in July and August, including aboard tankers subject to UK and EU sanctions.
Seoul's relationship with Moscow has prompted some European diplomats to question whether South Korea – which they saw as a “like-minded” democracy, with shared economic and security interests – remains a reliable partner.
"[The South Koreans] aren't really 'like-minded'," said one Seoul-based European diplomat who requested anonymity. "The attitude is that the [Ukraine] war won't last for ever, and they want to get right back into business with Russia as soon as it's over."
European concerns over Seoul's attitude to Russia predate Lee's presidency. South Korea's lax enforcement of its export controls on computer numerical control (CNC) machines, which can be used to produce munitions, has been a particular source of frustration.
In February 2025, two Korean executives were convicted of illegally exporting CNC machines worth Won7.3bn (\$5.5mn) to Russia, but they received suspended one-year prison terms and the company was fined just Won40mn.
Some observers say those concerns have grown under Lee, who took office

in June 2025. Mason Richey, professor of international politics at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies in Seoul, said that South Korean-Russian relations had been “improving quietly” since last autumn.
In November 2025, the Institute for National Security Strategy, which is affiliated with Korea's National Intelligence Service, held a closed-door conference with the Russian International Affairs Council, a Kremlin-backed think-tank aimed at finding opportunities for political dialogue and “prospects for expanding economic co-operation”, according to the RIAC website.
In June, INSS president Kim Seongbae travelled to Moscow for a closed-door strategic dialogue with Russian counterparts, according to RIAC.
Last month, Lee appointed Song Young-gil, a former leader of his Democratic Party, as special adviser for peace diplomacy. Song, who also served as a presidential envoy to Russia, has long advocated for closer ties with Moscow, and was awarded Russia's Order of Friendship by President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin in 2013.
Richey said officials such as national security adviser Wi Sung-lac and those around foreign minister Cho Hyun appeared to be losing influence with Lee, while those such as Song are “the ones who seem to have the president’s ear on the Russia file”.
Russia's deputy foreign minister Andrey Rudenko last month said that Moscow had received “statements from South Korean authorities regarding their ambitions to normalise” relations once the Ukraine war was over, according to Russia’s state-owned Tass news agency.
In a statement sent to the FT, South Korea's foreign ministry said: "Concerns in some quarters that South Korea is leaning too heavily towards Russia are inconsistent with the facts.
"As a responsible member of the international community, the South Korean government supports and participates in global efforts aimed at ending the war in Ukraine and restoring peace."
A South Korean national security official denied exports of diesel, petrol and jet fuel to Russia, adding that the
'The attitude is that the [Ukraine] war won't last for ever, and they want to get right back into business with Russia as soon as it's over'
authorities were investigating whether destinations had been falsely declared.
Meanwhile, Seoul's relationship with Kyiv has deteriorated following a dispute over the disclosure in September that two North Korean prisoners of war had been transferred from Ukraine to South Korea.
Lee has accused Kyiv of violating a secrecy agreement over transfer and demanded an apology. Seoul last month recalled its ambassador to Kyiv, its first such move since 2008, while Korea's foreign ministry said it would withdraw additional embassy staff. Ukrainian officials have disputed the Korean account, calling it a “diplomatic misunderstanding”.
Kim Saeme of the Asan Institute for Policy Studies warned against over-emphasising a South Korean “tilt” towards Russia, arguing that Lee’s administration has “moved away from what was described as ‘values-based diplomacy’ and is pursuing a more pragmatic and interest-driven approach”.
She added that Seoul's approach to Moscow reflected a longstanding view of Russia as a powerful neighbour that it cannot afford to ignore or antagonise.
“South Korean foreign policy has historically been conceptualised through the framework of ‘four major powers’: the United States, China, Japan and Russia,” Kim said.
But she questioned the relevance of that legacy, arguing that contemporary relations with Moscow “must begin with the recognition that Russia is helping to strengthen North Korea’s military capabilities, which is increasing the security threat to South Korea itself”.
Ramón Pacheco Pardo at King's College London, meanwhile, noted that several European countries remain significant customers of Russian energy. France doubled its imports of Russian liquefied natural gas in September from the previous month to €446mn, according to the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air. "Europe doesn't have a unified position towards Russia," Pacheco Pardo said.
European leverage is also limited by the increasing importance of South Korea's defence industry, which has helped replenish European stockpiles drawn down to arm Ukraine. Poland alone has ordered more than \$18bn of Korean tanks, howitzers, fighter jets and rocket launchers since 2022.
European governments “still need weapons – precisely because of [the Ukraine] situation”, Richey said.
'Blocking statute'
苏齐·林 —— 伦敦
劳拉·杜博瓦 —— 布鲁塞尔
国际刑事法院(ICC)高级官员敦促欧盟立即实施保护措施,以应对特朗普政府施加的制裁,称“不公平”的是法院及其服务提供商单独承担这一负担。
负责监督法院应对制裁的ICC登记官奥斯瓦尔多·扎瓦拉·吉勒尔(Osvaldo Zavala Giler)表示,欧盟应激活“阻断法案”(blocking statute),允许欧洲公司无视美国的超越管辖区制裁。
“我们的立场是应该尽快采取这一措施,”扎瓦拉·吉勒尔告诉《金融时报》。 “这是一个重申欧洲主权的工具。”
美国上个月宣布对国际刑事法院实施全面制裁,这是特朗普政府试图拆解其所谓的“反美法庭”的一部分。10月的制裁令要求大多数公司在180天内停止与驻海牙的战争法庭进行交易。
“阻断法案”将允许欧洲公司不遵守美国的超越管辖区制裁,这意味着它们可以继续为法院提供服务。然而,欧盟各国和欧洲委员会在制裁完全生效前一直犹豫是否采取任何措施。
“我认为不公平的是……我们现在处于一种局面,即银行和其他服务提供商必须自己评估与法院合作的风险,而不是由国家层面来决定这一点,”扎瓦拉·吉勒尔说。
欧洲委员会表示:“我们继续通过外交接触,与其他国家当事方合作,目标是撤销制裁。我们准备采取任何必要措施来保护法院的工作。”
国际刑事法院上个月与其健康保险提供商阿克萨(Axa)断绝关系,面对即将到来的制裁,担心制裁将迫使保险商停止与法院做生意。
上个月宣布制裁时,美国国务卿鲁比奥(Marco Rubio)表示,目标是找到“一个外交解决方案”,以解决美国“关切”问题,但在截止日期到来前未具体说明将涉及什么。
欧盟国家随后表示,这“为外交创造了空间,旨在争取迅速撤销这些措施”,根据欧盟领导人在10月中旬最后一次峰会上达成的结论。
10月底,委员会告诉公司“继续为国际刑事法院提供服务,使法院能够在外交谈判期间继续全面履行其职责”。
“政治保证、政治支持非常有效,也很重要……但需要与真实的法律和运营确定性相匹配,”扎瓦拉·吉勒尔说。
他表示,不清楚美国寻求的“解决方案”是什么。法院没有与美国进行任何直接谈判,以保护其独立性,而是依赖欧盟和各国代表其利益。
SUZI RING — LONDON
LAURA DUBOIS — BRUSSELS
A senior official at the International Criminal Court urged the EU to immediately implement protections against sanctions imposed by the Trump administration, saying it was “unfair” the court and its providers are managing the burden alone.
ICC registrar Osvaldo Zavala Giler, who is overseeing the court's response to the sanctions, said the EU should activate a "blocking statute" allowing European companies to disregard the US extraterritorial sanctions.
"Our position is that we should do this as soon as possible," Zavala Giler told the FT. "It's an instrument that is re-asserting European sovereignty."
The US announced sweeping sanctions against the ICC last month in an escalation of Trump's campaign to dismantle what he calls an “anti-American tribunal”. The October sanctions order gave most companies 180 days to stop trading with The Hague-based war tribunal.
The blocking statute would allow European companies to not comply with US extraterritorial sanctions, meaning they could continue providing services to the court. However, EU countries and the European Commission have been reluctant to take any measures before the sanctions take full effect.
“What I think is unfair [is] . . . we are now in a situation where banks and other service providers are the ones that have to assess by themselves the risk of co-operating with the court or not, rather than having this done at the state level,” Zavala Giler said.
The European Commission said: “We continue to pursue diplomatic outreach, jointly with other state parties, with the objective to have the sanctions lifted. We stand ready to take any measures necessary to protect the court’s work.”
The ICC cut ties with its health insurance provider, Axa, last month in the face of looming sanctions over fears they would force the insurer to stop doing business with the court.
Announcing the sanctions last month, US secretary of state Marco Rubio said the aim was to find “a diplomatic solution” that addressed US “concerns” before the deadline expired, without specifying what that would involve.
EU countries have since said this “creates space for diplomacy, with a view to securing the prompt reversal of these measures”, according to conclusions agreed by EU leaders in mid-October at their last summit.
In late October, the Commission told companies to “continue providing services to the ICC as before, enabling the court to continue carrying out its mandate in full” while diplomatic negotiations were ongoing.
"Political reassurances, political support is very effective and it's important . . . but it needs to be matched with real legal and operational certainty," said Zavala Giler.
He said it was not clear what “solution” the US was looking for. The court has not engaged in any direct talks with the US in a bid to protect its independence, instead relying on the EU and states to advocate on its behalf.

印尼在首都街头部署了20,000名士兵,并逮捕了三名高级警官,一场涉及对国家总统普拉博沃·苏比安托的窃听丑闻爆发,进一步加剧了该国因经济困境而面临的压力。
根据印尼警察刑事调查局局长阿塞普·萨弗鲁丁(Asep Safrudin)的说法,两名高级警官和总统普拉博沃·苏比安托的首席幕僚(一名前国家警察总长)已被逮捕。
“[他们]被指控非法窃听印尼共和国总统、国家官员、政治人物、媒体人士、大众组织领袖、非政府组织人士和商人的电话号码”,阿塞普在周二晚间的新闻发布会上表示。
这场丑闻在印尼引发震动,并加剧了对与盟友关系日益松动的担忧,因为总统正面临民意支持下滑、对其标志性政策的批评以及市场情绪恶化。
军方官员表示,昨天将超过20,000名军人和人员部署到首都雅加达。军方发言人穆罕默德·纳斯(Muhammad Nas)称,部署军队是维护安全和国家统一的常规做法。
“这种情况可能削弱执政联盟,因为普拉博沃日益增长的不安全感在联盟伙伴之间培育了相互猜忌,‘我们可以考虑这作为叛国行为......危及国家利益,包括威胁国家元首的安全’”,来自雅加达基地的战略与国际研究中心(Centre for Strategic and International Studies)的尼基·法里兹尔(Nicky Fahrizal)表示。“政治不稳定性必然会升级。”
阿塞普仅以嫌疑人姓名的首字母公开其身份,符合印尼执法惯例,但官员确认其中包括利斯托·西吉特·普拉博沃(Listyo Sigit Prabowo),他于上月被任命为普拉博沃的首席幕僚。利斯托(与总统无亲属关系)昨日被解除了该职务。
阿塞普表示,窃听行为在2025年至2026期间非程序化进行,三名嫌疑人于10月指令删除窃听文件以掩盖踪迹。
三名嫌疑人已根据刑法典被指控从事威胁国家安全的非法行为,以及根据电子信息法被指控非法窃听和未经授权删除电子数据。《金融时报》未能联系到嫌疑人或其律师,他们也未通过律师发布任何声明。
“我们可以将此视为叛国行为......危及国家利益,包括威胁国家元首的安全”,国家秘书普拉塞蒂约·哈迪(Prasetyo Hadi)昨日表示,但他补充称,嫌疑人动机仍不明确。
利斯托于2021年由前总统乔科·维多多(Joko Widodo)任命为国家警察总长,两人长期有交情,利斯托曾在维多多担任索洛市市长期间担任警察局长。
腐败疑云
A. ANANTHA LAKSHMI AND DIANA MARISKA — JAKARTA
Indonesia has deployed 20,000 soldiers to the streets of the capital and arrested three senior police officers as a scandal erupted over the alleged wiretapping of the country's president, already under pressure as economic woes mount.
Two senior police officers and President Prabowo Subianto's chief of staff — a former national chief of police — were arrested, according to Asep Safrudin, head of the police's Criminal Investigation Agency.
“[They] are suspected of illegally tapping the telephone numbers of the president of the Republic of Indonesia, state officials, political figures, media, mass organisation figures, NGOs and businessmen,” Asep said in a news conference late on Tuesday.
The scandal has sent shockwaves through Indonesia and has added to concerns about fraying ties with allies, as the president faces falling approval ratings, criticism of his signature policies and souring market sentiment.
Military officials said yesterday that more than 20,000 troops and personnel would be deployed in the capital Jakarta. Military spokesperson Muhammad Nas said the troop deployment was standard practice to maintain security and unity.
"This situation could weaken the ruling coalition as Prabowo's growing sense
of insecurity breeds mutual suspicion among coalition partners," said Nicky Fahrizal from the Jakarta-based Centre for Strategic and International Studies. "Political instability is bound to escalate."
Asep identified the suspects only by their initials, per Indonesian law enforcement practice, but officials have confirmed that they included Listyo Sigit Prabowo, who was made Prabowo's chief of staff last month. Listyo, who is not related to the president, was dismissed from that role yesterday.
Asep said the wiretap was conducted “non-procedurally” between 2025 and 2026, and the three suspects ordered the deletion of wiretapping files in October to cover their tracks.
The three suspects have been charged under the criminal code for unlawful practices threatening security and under the electronic information law for illegal wiretapping and unauthorised deletion of electronic data. The FT could not reach the suspects for comment, and they have not released any statements via their lawyers.
"We can consider this an act leading to treason . . . jeopardising the security of state interests, including endangering the safety of the head of state," said state secretary Prasetyo Hadi yesterday, though he added that their motivation remained unclear.
Listyo was appointed national chief of police in 2021 by the president's predecessor Joko Widodo, and the two have longstanding ties, with Listyo serving as police chief in the city of Solo when Widodo was mayor.
Corruption concerns
法布里斯·德普雷兹 —— 基辅
帕奥拉·塔玛 —— 布鲁塞尔
马尔顿·杜奈 —— 布加勒斯特
欧盟委员会表示,由于乌克兰在根除腐败方面进展缓慢,该国在加入欧盟的道路上落后于邻国摩尔多瓦。
两国于2022年应对俄罗斯全面入侵乌克兰后申请加入欧盟,并自此以来一直同步推进。然而,欧盟委员会在昨天发布的年度扩大报告中指出,基希讷乌(摩尔多瓦首都)有望在2028年初前完成加入谈判,而基辅则需要额外一年时间,并“加快改革步伐”才能完成这一进程。
委员会还表示,黑山共和国可能在明年中期签署加入条约,如果得到欧盟各国政府和欧洲议会的批准,将成为2013年克罗地亚加入后的首个新成员。
虽然欧盟委员会称赞乌克兰在“面对俄罗斯侵略战争带来的最艰难局势下”所做的努力,但表示基辅仍需“在打击腐败方面取得显著进展”。
乌克兰的反腐机构在战争期间仍在运作,并曝光了多个腐败案件,迫使总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基去年解雇了多名部长和高级官员。
欧盟委员会已设立“专门工作组”协助乌克兰“紧急并显著加快法治改革步伐”。委员会还指出,乌克兰议会近期通过了一系列欧盟要求的法案,以解锁关键财政支持,表明改革动力正在加速。

泽连斯基去年因腐败问题解雇了多名部长
欧盟驻乌克兰大使卡塔琳娜·马特尔诺娃表示,乌克兰与摩尔多瓦的“脱钩”并非意图贬低基辅迄今所取得的进展。她说:“我认为乌克兰在战争第五年、并在去年秋季以来不断升级的冲突中仍能保持改革步伐,这一点本身就是极为难得的。”
泽连斯基上月警告称,将两国“脱钩”是“道德上错误的”,并补充说乌克兰正在阻止俄罗斯在摩尔多瓦分离地区——Transnistria制造“麻烦”。
乌克兰未来几年的资金也面临威胁。该国明年面临€70亿的资金缺口,欧盟委员会承诺覆盖其中两-thirds,可能包括发行联合债务。
欧盟委员会表示,摩尔多瓦在2028年初前完成加入谈判的目标“雄心勃勃但可实现”。
摩尔多瓦亲欧盟总统迈亚·桑杜表示,她对欧盟委员会的报告感到“满意”,该报告“反映了摩尔多瓦的稳步进展”。

Ukraine is falling behind Moldova on its path to EU membership because of its sputtering efforts to root out corruption, the European Commission has said.
The two eastern neighbours applied to join the bloc in 2022, following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, and have advanced in tandem ever since.
But in its annual enlargement reports published yesterday, Brussels said Chişinău was on track to close membership talks by early 2028 while Kyiv would need another year and an “acceleration of the pace of reforms” to complete the process.
The Commission also said Montenegro could sign its accession treaty by the middle of next year. It would be the first new member since Croatia's 2013 accession, if approved by EU governments and the European parliament.
While praising Ukraine's efforts "in the face of most difficult circumstances brought by Russia's war of aggression", the Commission said Kyiv still needed to "demonstrate significant progress" in tackling corruption.
Ukraine's anti-corruption agencies have kept operating during the war and exposed schemes that forced President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to sack several ministers and senior officials last year.
Brussels has set up a “dedicated task force” to help Ukraine “urgently and significantly step up the pace of the rule of law reforms”. It also noted a recent acceleration of the “reform momentum” as Ukraine’s parliament passed a series of bills demanded by the EU to unlock crucial financial support.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy fired several ministers over corruption last year
Katarína Mathernová, EU ambassador to Ukraine, said the decoupling from Moldova was not meant to play down the progress Kyiv had made so far. "I think the fact that Ukraine keeps up the pace [of reforms] in the fifth year of the war and in the middle of this incredible escalation since late summer is actually remarkable in itself," she said.
Zelenskyy last month warned that decoupling the two countries would be “morally wrong”, adding that Ukraine was preventing Russia from causing “trouble” in Moldova’s breakaway region of Transnistria.
Ukraine's financing for coming years is also under threat. The country faces a €70bn gap next year, of which the Commission vowed to cover two-thirds, which could include issuing joint debt.
The Commission said Moldova's goal of closing accession talks by early 2028 was "ambitious but achievable".
Moldova's pro-EU president, Maia Sandu, said she was "pleased" by the Commission's report, which "reflects Moldova's steady progress".

希利承诺,为“预防性”措施划定预算“围栏”将节省资金

詹妮弗·威廉姆斯 —— 曼彻斯特
财政大臣约翰·希利承诺将对公共开支控制进行重大改革,许诺新的规则将为“预防性”项目划定预算“围栏”,以便在未来节省资金。
希利表示,明年的开支审查将标志着“长期重大转变”,通过保护能够防止问题恶化的投资,创建一个新的开支类别。
“长期以来,政府更多地花费在处理问题的后果上,而不是事先预防问题的发生,”希利在接受《金融时报》采访时表示。“这让人民处境更差,也让纳税人承担更大的负担。”
他补充道:“这样我们可以提供更优质的公共服务,同时为每一英镑的开支获得更好的价值。”
财政部官员对所谓的“预防性部门支出限额”(PDEL)这一想法持怀疑态度。但希利相信PDEL将有助于减少整体开支,一些财政部内部人士将这一举动形容为“悄然激进”。
这将在明年的开支审查之前发生——预计不会在秋季之前举行——届时希利将面临压力,需要每年为提高国防开支筹集£11亿,并为资金紧张的公共服务提供数十亿英镑的额外资金。
卫生大臣耶韦特·库珀(Yvette Cooper)昨日呼吁,在开支审查中保持国民医疗服务体系(NHS💡)£200亿预算的大部分不变,因为希利引入了新的“预防性”开支围栏。
“我认为我们的许多治疗服务在其他领域节省资金方面发挥了作用,”卫生大臣在向下议院卫生委员会发言时表示。“心理健康就是一个很好的例子。”
其他可能涵盖的领域包括减少青少年犯罪和无家可归、教育以及应对针对妇女和儿童的暴力等努力。
一位希利的盟友表示:“这并不是一种偷偷多花钱的方式。”他们补充说,将在其他领域“下游”做出“艰难的决定”来削减资金。
国王基金会(King's Fund)智库的安妮塔·查尔斯沃思(Anita Charlesworth)曾推动采用PDEL,她否认了财政部官员对该措施的怀疑,这些官员认为将预防性开支分类会很难。
“The focus should be on activities whose principal purpose is prevention,” she said, which would capture about 5.6 % of health spending.
“The same approach could be applied across public services: in children's social care, for example, early-help and family-support services can be distinguished from acute intervention,” Charlesworth added.
“预防性部门支出限额”的想法由Demos智库提出,作为“将长期主义注入公共开支”的一种方式。
前曼彻斯特大都会市长安迪·伯恩汉姆(Andy Burnham)在任期间曾将重点放在预防上。
去年的10年NHS计划同意将该城市地区作为全国预防领域的示范,赋予其更多灵活性来管理资金,以创建社区“活得好”(Live Well)中心,将全科医生、就业支持、住房咨询、社会福利、警察和志愿服务等整合在一起。
Healey promises that rules to ringfence ‘preventative’ measures will save money
GEORGE PARKER AND CHRIS SMYTH
LONDON
JENNIFER WILLIAMS — MANCHESTER
Chancellor John Healey has promised a major overhaul of public spending controls, vowing that new rules to ringfence “preventative” programmes would save money further down the line.
Healey said next year's spending review would mark "a big long-term shift" by protecting investment that stops problems escalating with the creation of a new category of spending.
"For too long, governments have spent more dealing with the consequences of problems rather than getting ahead of them," Healey told the FT. "This leaves people worse off and taxpayers picking up a bigger bill."
He added: “In this way we can deliver better public services while getting better value for every pound we spend.”
Treasury officials have been sceptical about the idea of a so-called preventative departmental expenditure limit, or PDEL. But Healey believes the PDEL would help reduce overall spending, with some Treasury insiders describing the move as “quietly radical”.
It comes ahead of next year's spending review – unlikely to happen until autumn – which will put Healey under pressure to find £11bn a year for higher defence spending and billions of pounds more to fund stretched public services.
Yvette Cooper, health secretary, yesterday called for large chunks of the £200bn NHS budget to be left untouched in the spending review after Healey introduced the new ringfence for pre-emptive spending.
"I do think a lot of our treatment services have an impact in terms of saving money elsewhere," the health secretary said, speaking to the Commons health committee. "Mental health is a really good example of that."
Other areas that could be covered include spending to reduce youth offending and homelessness, education and efforts to tackle violence against women and children.
One Healey ally said: “This is not some sneaky way to spend more money.” They added that “tough decisions” would be made to cut money in other areas “downstream” of where the preventative spending was being allocated.
Anita Charlesworth, at the King's Fund think-tank, who pushed for the adoption of PDEL, rejected the scepticism among Treasury officials who have argued that classifying preventative spending will be difficult.
"The focus should be on activities whose principal purpose is prevention," she said, which would capture about 5.6 per cent of health spending.
"The same approach could be applied across public services: in children's social care, for example, early-help and family-support services can be distinguished from acute intervention," Charlesworth added.
The idea of PDEL was promoted by the Demos think-tank as a way of “injecting long-termism into public spending”.
Prime Minister Andy Burnham placed a significant focus on prevention during his later years as mayor of Greater Manchester.
Last year's 10-year NHS plan agreed to make the city region a national model in the field, giving it more flexibility over funding pots to create neighbourhood “Live Well” hubs bringing together GPs, employment support, housing advice, social care, police and voluntary services.

印度餐厅维拉斯瓦米(Veeraswamy)
在法庭争夺雷金街(Regent Street)存续权
维拉斯瓦米(Veeraswamy)占据其场所已有100年。上图显示马丁·本尼威斯(Martin Bennewith)、马尼塔·潘贾比(Manita Panjabi)和兰吉特·马特拉尼(Ranjit Mathrani)于2024年2月向白金汉宫递交请愿书。
英国最古老的印度餐厅将于今日前往法庭,试图保留其在伦敦雷金街的位置,声称其地主若提供更传统英国菜肴,将表现出更多尊重。
维拉斯瓦米(Veeraswamy)拥有一颗米其林星,已在首都最著名购物区的首层场所占据100年。
皇家地产(The Crown Estate)于2024年通知其租约不会获续签,原因是需要对胜利大厦(Victory House)进行“全面翻新”。
大楼上方因洪水后空置了办公室。
兰吉特·马特拉尼(Ranjit Mathrani),一位前投资银行家,现任维拉斯瓦米(Veeraswamy)所有者MW Eat的董事长,表示地主曾表示在餐厅仍在场所的情况下进行翻新不安全,并且未来可从办公室租户获得更高租金。
“我们已经尽一切努力满足他们的关切,”马特拉尼说,“显然,他们对维拉斯瓦米及其传统、背景、作用和烹饪遗产缺乏足够的尊重。他们是否会对更熟悉的菜系采取相同立场?
“他们是否会对戈登·拉姆齐(Gordon Ramsay)这样做?不。”
皇家地产表示:“我们强烈否认任何建议皇家地产偏好特定类型的菜系。我们以西区投资组合中多元化的餐饮选择为荣,反映伦敦本身的多样性。”
The Crown Estate,负责管理王室财产并将利润上缴政府的机构,计划将餐厅空间转换为接待区域。
它表示,结束Veeraswamy的租约“并非我们轻率决定”。
MW Eat曾提出支付与办公租户相同的租金,或购买一份35年期的整栋建筑租约,并自行承担翻修工程。
然而,Crown Estate表示,这些提议未能满足“作为这座列入遗产名录建筑的管理者的责任、法律义务以及管理公共资金的责任”。
它已提出协助餐厅迁往新场地,并提供财务补偿。
Mathrani表示,Crown Estate提供的补偿金额为50 万英镑,比法定金额高出20%,他称,这远低于餐厅迁移所需的500万英镑。
他补充称,未提供任何替代地点,且餐厅本身希望留在原址。
根据《1954、地主与承租人法》,商业建筑承租人通常有权在现有租约到期后继续留在场地并签订新租约,除非房东能证明至少七项理由之一。在此案中,Crown Estate声称,由于需要进行工程施工,租约不应续签,MW Eat将对此提出异议。
过去两年,Veeraswamy已收集超过20,000个签名,并将请愿书呈交白金汉宫。查尔斯三世迄今未干预。
一群英国厨师,包括米歇尔·鲁(Michel Roux Jr)和汤姆·艾肯斯(Tom Aikens)在去年发表了一封信,呼吁Crown Estate“负责任行事”,并称将餐厅改为办公室将是“深刻的损失”。
MW Eat去年被加拿大金融集团Fairfax收购。

Edmund Richardson has won the 2026 Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction for Alexander: God, King, Man, a historical biography of Alexander the Great that draws on cutting-edge technology to retell the story of one of the ancient world's most notorious leaders.
Richardson, a British professor of classics at Durham University, based the book on more than a decade of research into Alexander's nearly 2,400-year-old story. This included translations of contemporaneous accounts in 12 languages and computer simulation techniques used to recreate details of his military campaigns, from the night sky on the date of a given battle to the volume of food and water needed to fuel his vast armies.
“You feel like you’re there on the battlefield,” said chair of judges Kirsty Lang. “It’s blockbuster history with page-turning narrative pull, a cracking cinematic story about the ancient world involving a masterful assembly of research materials alongside exceptional literary craft.”
Alexander, aged 20, inherited the “bankrupt” kingdom of Macedon and, in desperation, went on to lead his army east. Richardson traces his ascent to the status of hero and then god — as well as the levels of cruelty and destruction that accompanied it.
Lang highlighted the crucial role of Richardson's academic work in underpinning the book, which is published by Bloomsbury in the UK and St Martin's Press in the US.
"The humanities in this country have been underfunded," Lang said. "This is an example of the kind of amazing research that is happening in our universities, and it's important."
The other books on the shortlist were London Falling by previous Bailie Gifford winner Patrick Radden Keefe; Baldwin: A Love Story by Nicholas Boggs; Days of Love and Rage: A Story of Revolution by Anand Gopal; The Great Dictator: A Life of Barbara Cartland by Matthew Sweet; and The Traveller: The Revolutionary Life of George Forster and his Search for Humanity by Andrea Wulf.

Veeraswamy
in court battle
to stay on
Regent Street

Veeraswamy has occupied its premises for 100 years. Above, Martin Bennewith, Manita Panjabi and Ranjit Mathrani deliver a petition to Buckingham Palace in February
The UK's oldest Indian restaurant will go to court today in an effort to retain its place on London's Regent Street, arguing that its landlord would have shown greater respect had it served more traditionally British cuisine.
Veeraswamy, which has one Michelin star, has occupied its first-floor premises in the capital's premier shopping zone for 100 years.
The Crown Estate informed it in 2024 that its lease would not be renewed, owing to the need to carry out a “comprehensive refurbishment” of Victory House.
The building has empty offices upstairs following a flood.
Ranjit Mathrani, a former investment banker who chairs Veeraswamy's owner, MW Eat, said the landlord had said it would be unsafe to undertake renovations with the restaurant still in place, and that in future it could receive higher rents from office tenants.
“We have done everything to meet their concerns,” said Mathrani. “It is obvious that they do not appear to have sufficient regard for Veeraswamy and its tradition, its background, its role, and its culinary heritage. Would they actually have taken the same stance had it been a cuisine with which they were more familiar?
"Would they have done that to Gordon Ramsay? No."
The Crown Estate said: “We strongly refute any suggestion that The Crown Estate prefers particular types of cuisine. We are proud to have a diverse dining offer across our West End portfolio, reflecting the diversity of London itself.”
The body, which manages the monarchy's property portfolio and whose profits are passed to the government, wants to convert the restaurant space into a reception area.
It said that the end of Veeraswamy's lease was "not a decision we've taken lightly".
MW Eat had offered to pay the same rents the estate would have collected from office tenants, or to purchase a 35-year lease for the whole building and undertake the refurbishment works itself.
However, the estate said such proposals did not meet “our responsibilities as stewards of this heritage-listed building, our legal obligations and our responsibilities to manage public money”.
It has offered to help the restaurant relocate to new premises and offered financial compensation.
Mathrani said the estate offered compensation of £500,000, 20 per cent more than the statutory amount. That was a fraction of the £5mn required for such a move, he said.
No alternative locations had been offered, he added, and the restaurant wanted to stay anyway.
Under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, tenants in commercial buildings generally have the right to remain in their premises and assume new leases when their existing ones expire, unless landlords can cite at least one of seven grounds.
In this case, the Crown Estate is arguing the lease should not be renewed on the grounds that access is needed to carry out works, which MW Eat will contest.
Over the past two years, Veeraswamy has collected more than 20,000 signatures for a petition that it presented to Buckingham Palace. King Charles III has not so far intervened.
A cadre of British chefs including Michel Roux Jr and Tom Aikens published a letter last year calling on the estate to “act responsibly”, and that turning the restaurant into offices would be a “profound loss”.
MW Eat was bought by Canadian financial group Fairfax last year.

能源价格上涨将推动通胀在明年初达到三年来的最高水平,根据《金融时报》调查的经济学家表示,这将进一步加大英国央行(Bank of England)在今日利率决策前上调利率的压力。
经济学家调查显示,通胀预计将在明年平均达到4.4%,本周进行的对12名经济学家的调查发现,大多数人预计价格增长将在明年第一季度达到最高峰。
所有但一名受访者均预计通胀将超过4.1%,其中五人预测通胀峰值将在4.5%至5%之间。
这发生在英国央行(BoE)准备于今日中午公布其通胀和增长展望之际,该央行在本周会议上预计将同意将其关键利率上调四分之一百分点。
经济学家的预测显著高于英国财政责任办公室(Office for Budget Responsibility)上周公布的最新预测,该预测显示通胀将在明年第一季度达到3.8%。
然而,OBR的经济预测是基于2023年8月中旬的油气市场价格,而在中东战争重新升级后,这些价格急剧上涨。昨日,油价因美国与伊朗之间的外交进展而下跌。
“通胀前景正变得越来越让英国央行货币政策委员会(Monetary Policy Committee)感到不适”,投资银行Investec的经济学家埃莉·亨德森(Ellie Henderson)表示,她是受访者之一,预计通胀将在明年2月达到4.4%。
她指出,Ofgem的能源价格上限预计将在1月份上涨超过25%,加上伊朗战争后油价冲击的间接影响,可能会推高其他商品的价格。
今年年初,英国央行表示相信自己能够按时达到其官方通胀目标2%,为降息铺平道路。然而,2月底伊朗战争爆发导致能源价格飙升,通胀率上升。
家庭能源账单预计将在1月份上涨约£470,达到典型家庭每年约2,200 英镑的水平,根据EDF能源的估计。
通胀率已经在9月份上升至3.5%,这是近一年内的最高水平。如果通胀率达到4.4%,将是自2023年10月以来的最高水平,当时通胀率曾达到4.6%。
7月份,央行预测通胀将在2026年最后一个季度达到约3.2%。咨询公司Pantheon Macroeconomics的经济学家罗伯特·伍德(Robert Wood)表示,自那时以来,前景已经恶化。
“基于最近的能源价格,通胀将达到约5%,并将在明年全年保持在3%以上”,他预测称。
OBR官员上周承认,能源价格现在“显著高于”其经济预测所依据的价格,并且其2027年的通胀预测“在某种程度上”将更高,基于当前的市场定价。
VALENTINA ROMEI, SAM FLEMING AND DELPHINE STRAUSS — LONDON
Rising energy prices will push inflation to its highest pace in three years around the start of next year, according to economists surveyed by the FT, adding to pressure on the Bank of England to raise interest rates ahead of the central bank's interest rate decision today.
Inflation is expected to peak at an average of 4.4 per cent, the survey of 12 economists that was conducted this week found, with most expecting that price growth will reach its highest level in the first quarter of next year.
All but one respondent expected inflation to peak above 4.1 per cent, while five forecast a peak of between 4.5 and 5 per cent.
It comes as the BoE prepares to set out its own inflation and growth outlook at midday today after a meeting that is widely expected to agree a quarter-point increase in its key interest rate.
The economists' forecasts are significantly higher than the latest projections from the Office for Budget Responsibility, published last week, which show inflation peaking at 3.8 per cent in the first quarter of next year.
But the OBR's economic forecasts were based on market prices for oil and gas in mid-August, before a re-escalation in the Middle East war drove them sharply up. Yesterday oil prices fell following a report of diplomatic progress between the US and Iran.
"The inflation outlook is becoming increasingly uncomfortable for the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee," said Ellie Henderson, economist at Investec and one of those surveyed, who expects inflation to peak at 4.4 per cent next February.
She said that Ofgem's energy price cap being on track to rise by more than 25 per cent in January, alongside indirect effects of the oil price shock following the Iran war, was likely to feed through to the prices of other goods.
At the beginning of this year, the BoE said it believed it was on track to meet its official inflation target of 2 per cent, paving the way for rate reductions. Instead, the outbreak of the war in Iran in late February led to skyrocketing energy prices and rising inflation.
Household energy bills are set to jump nearly £470 in January to about £2,200 a year for a typical household, according to EDF Energy estimates.
Inflation has already risen to 3.5 per cent in September, its highest level in almost a year. Inflation at 4.4 per cent would be the fastest since October 2023, when it hit 4.6 per cent.
In July, the central bank forecast inflation would peak at about 3.2 per cent in the final quarter of 2026. Robert Wood, economist at the consultancy Pantheon Macroeconomics, said the outlook had changed for the worse since then.
“Inflation will peak around 5 per cent based on recent energy prices and run above 3 per cent all of next year,” he predicted.
OBR officials acknowledged last week that energy prices were now “substantially higher” than those on which its economic forecasts were based and that its inflation forecast for early 2027 would have been “somewhat higher” based on current market pricing.

英国“严重暴露”于中国可能切断关键原材料供应的风险,尽管已有超过15年关于北京意图利用其行业垄断地位的警告,但英国议员们警告称。
自2010年以来,中国因日本拘留一名中国渔船船长而切断稀土金属供应后,英国连续多届政府未能减少对中国关键矿产的依赖,这些矿产用于国防、汽车和绿色产业。商业、创新、科学与贸易委员会的一份报告指出。
委员会主席利亚姆·拜恩(Liam Byrne)表示,未能构建韧性并将这些材料的供应多元化远离北京,仍然对英国未来安全构成重大风险。
“关键矿产是新经济的核心。我们无法重新武装英国、发展人工智能或实现净零目标,除非我们确保这些技术所需的矿产。16年前中国首次将稀土垄断作为武器使用后,英国仍然严重暴露在风险中。”他表示。
中国继续加工全球超过80%的稀土金属,以及其他关键材料,如石墨和锰,这些材料对生产用于净零过渡的电池至关重要。
报告指出,对中国对稀土垄断的担忧始于2010年,当时日本拘留一名中国渔船船长后,北京立即对日本切断部分关键稀土供应,导致价格上涨26倍。

去年夏季,北京再次因美国总统唐纳德·特朗普发起的贸易战而切断部分稀土金属供应给欧洲和美国,导致多家汽车工厂面临停产危机。
委员会呼吁对英国关键矿产供应链进行“精准脱风险”,以应对经济强制的威胁。
为了应对挑战,委员会提出了五点计划,包括改善对关键矿产加工的融资获取途径,最大化国内开采,并建立一个“买家俱乐部”,由志同道合的盟友共同分担建设新矿山和冶炼厂的成本(每个项目耗资£30亿)。
“我们永远无法从供应链中完全消除中国矿产,我们需要一个新的关键矿产融资设施,拥有足够的金融实力来投资新矿山、加工厂和回收项目,与盟友共同分担成本。”拜恩说。
政府一年前提出了为期10年的关键矿产战略,承诺增加国内产量并建立国际合作伙伴关系,以多元化供应链。
该战略提到一些创新项目,如贝尔法斯特女王大学的研究,旨在寻找回收风力涡轮机和电动汽车中永磁体的新方法。
中国继续加工全球超过$80%的稀土金属,包括如图所示的钕铁硼(Baotou,内蒙古)——Nelson Ching / Bloomberg。
委员会的报告紧随本周另一份报告之后,该报告批评政府在如何处理中国问题的政策制定方面表现出“反应性、不一致和不透明”。
Critical resources
PETER FOSTER — LONDON
The UK is “dangerously exposed” to the risk of China cutting off access to critical raw materials despite more than a decade of warnings about Beijing’s willingness to exploit its dominance of the industry, MPs have warned.
More than 15 years after China cut off supplies of rare earth metals to Japan after a spying row, successive British governments have failed to cut reliance on China for critical minerals used in defence, auto and green industries, a report for the business, innovation, science and trade committee said.
Committee chair Liam Byrne said that failure to build resilience and diversify supplies of the materials away from Beijing continued to pose significant risks to the UK's future security.
“Critical minerals are the alpha of the new economy. We cannot re-arm Britain, build AI or deliver net zero unless we secure the minerals these technologies depend on. Sixteen years after China first weaponised its chokehold over rare earths, Britain remains dangerously exposed,” he said.
China continues to process more than 80 per cent of the world's rare earth metals alongside other key materials, such as graphite and manganese, that are critical to the production of batteries used in the net zero transition.
The report noted that concerns about China's chokehold on rare earths rose to prominence as early as 2010 after Japan detained a Chinese trawler captain. Beijing promptly blocked supplies of some key rare earths to Japan, causing a 26-fold increase in prices.

Last summer, Beijing again cut off some rare earth metal supplies to Europe and the US following the start of US President Donald Trump's trade war, bringing several auto plants to the brink suspending production.
The committee called for a targeted “precision de-risking” of the UK’s critical mineral supply chains to help counter the threat of economic coercion.
To combat the challenges, the committee set out a five-point plan, including improving access to finance for criti-

cal mineral processing, maximising domestic mining and creating a “buyers’ club” among like-minded allies to share costs of building new mines and smelters that can cost £3bn each.
“We’re never going to eliminate Chinese minerals from our supply chains,” Byrne said. “That’s why we need a new Critical Minerals Finance Facility with the financial firepower to invest in new mines, processing plants and recycling, working with allies to share the costs.”
The government set out a 10-year critical minerals strategy a year ago that promised to grow domestic production and forge international partnerships in order to diversify supply chains.
It cited innovative new projects to lift supplies, such as research from Queen's University Belfast to find new ways to recycle permanent magnets used in wind turbines and electric vehicles.
The committee's report follows another it released this week that criticised the government over policymaking on how to handle China.
It described the UK's approach to the country as being characterised by "reactivity, inconsistency and opacity". Refiner Solvay strikes deal page 17
詹妮弗·威廉斯 —— 曼彻斯特
在首相承诺“每个邮政编码增长”,包括通过“重新工业化”时,维根市政府放弃了四个主要就业用地项目,其中包括物流、制造、科技空间和住房。
当开发商Tritax Big Box首次申请在维根绿地建设一个巨型物流枢纽时,由工党领导的市政府曾表示支持。
北部互联物流公园(ILP)北部将成为未来“高质量就业的重要来源”,维根市议会去年在其草案规划蓝图中表示。
然而今年夏天,市政府突然改变立场。9月份,工党议员詹妮·格雷戈里(Jenny Gregory)在市议会会议上告诉同僚:“这不是经济发展。这是对一个无法承受的地区进行工业化。”
在5月的地方选举中,维根市失去了近24名议员加入改革UK党(Reform UK),加上当地对绿地开发的强烈反对,导致该市政府在安德鲁·伯恩汉姆(Andy Burnham)成为议员后掉头。
维根曾是一座工业强国,位于曼彻斯特和利物浦之间,长期优先考虑物流,因为其靠近M6和M62高速公路。但8月份,其领导层从其13年地方规划草案中撤销了所有四个主要就业用地项目,包括分销、制造、科技空间和住房。
曼彻斯特大学政治学教授罗布·福特(Rob Ford)表示,这种情况反映了伯恩汉姆面临的政策权衡,他作为首相承诺了“地方自治”,但也承诺“良好”
“它也是他继承的政治问题的一个缩影”,福特补充道。去年,工党在全国失去了数百名议员,其中包括改革UK党和绿党,这使得工党的权力基础动荡,并让工党议员对明年5月的选举感到忧虑。
自去年一项规模宏大的仓储计划因其靠近住宅区而引发全国关注后,维根对工业发展的焦虑加剧。位于Astley商业公园的PLP运营的仓库,高达18米,覆盖面积相当于五个足球场,被比作“邮轮”。
在维根,工党仅在一名候选人获胜,其他全部输给了改革UK党,其中三分之一的席位在竞选中。
现在,维根在其13年地方规划中提出的约50万平方米的就业空间和住房项目已被取消,该规划将成为规划申请的框架。
格雷戈里表示,她的选区受到Tritax计划影响最大,上个月她告诉工党同僚,任何来自开发商的规划申请都将被视为“敌对”。
但该提案对伯恩汉姆来说具有全国意义,包括在其治理下。北部互联物流公园(ILP)北部将包括767,000平方米的物流和相关就业空间,专注于一个新的铁路枢纽,旨在解放西北部的货运流动。
伯恩汉姆作为大曼彻斯特市长时,曾向财政部申请约£2 亿用于将曼彻斯特的铁路货运转移到新的枢纽。他曾对《金融时报》表示:“这笔资金将用于ILP北部。”该计划还将释放空间,用于曼联老特拉福德球场的重新开发。
然而,资金申请被拒绝,伯恩汉姆随后对ILP北部的规模表达了“重大关切”。
北部互联物流公园(ILP)北部将跨越两个市长治理区域,在伯恩汉姆政府将“地方自治”置于核心议程之时,这成为一个问题。其中约两-thirds的区域将位于圣赫勒拿,作为利物浦城市地区自由港的一部分,利用最大的就业用地。利物浦市长史蒂夫·罗瑟姆(Steve Rotheram),伯恩汉姆的密友,一直支持该方案。
在威根村庄洛顿(Lowton)附近的田野中,剩余的部分将扩展至距离首相住所约一英里的地方。
当地居民加雷斯·爱德华兹(Gareth Edwards)曾反对该计划,他表示洛顿的道路已经因附近M6高速公路附近的重型货车频繁通过而严重拥堵。
“它确实就发生在我们家门口,”爱德华兹关于特里塔克斯(Tritax)方案的提议表示,并补充称居民将对规模感到“震惊”。威根已经意识到并做出了反应,这是好的。
伯恩哈姆(Burnham)去年曾与居民会面,听取他们对一年前的担忧,今年1月他致信当地当局,表达了对ILP北方(ILP North)对当地社区影响的“重大关切”。
威根市议会原始的2025年地方规划草案优先考虑“新的高质量就业场所”,利用该郡位于M6高速公路、通往曼彻斯特的伊斯特兰开克罗德(East Lancashire Road)以及威根和博尔顿之间规划中的“增长走廊”的地理优势。其后的180度转弯让投资者在当地、市长和国家政策之间的紧张关系中犹豫不决。
该计划中的四个就业方案中,有两个由北方发展巨头皮尔集团(Peel)所有。今年夏季,威根市议会还反对该集团在吉布菲尔德公园(Gibfield Park)的综合性主体规划,该绿地项目已进行了十多年。
该45,000平方米的混合用途方案是北福尔德(Northfold)增长走廊的一部分,该走廊已经从伯恩哈姆的“优质增长基金”(Good Growth Fund)中获得了资金支持。皮尔集团未回应置评请求。
威根市议会工党经济发展和复兴内阁成员丹·安德顿(Dane Anderton)表示,当地政府专注于“在正确的地方发展正确类型的增长”。
特里塔克斯(Tritax)表示,其计划中的枢纽将“加强北西部、英国港口和更广泛市场之间的铁路货运能力”。
该规划反映了伯恩哈姆在国家增长目标与下届五月地方选举前动荡的政治环境之间的平衡之举。
JENNIFER WILLIAMS — MANCHESTER growth in every postcode", including through "re-industrialisation".
When the developer Tritax Big Box first sought to build part of a vast freight hub on Wigan's greenbelt, the Labour-led council was supportive.
Intermodal Logistics Park (ILP) North would be a future source of “substantial high-quality employment”, said Wigan council in its draft planning blueprint last year.
This summer it had a sudden change of heart. “This is not economic development,” Labour councillor Jenny Gregory told colleagues in September as the authority voted to formally reject the site’s removal from the greenbelt. “It’s the industrialisation of an area that cannot absorb it.”
The loss of almost two dozen councillors to Reform UK in May's local elections, combined with vocal local opposition to greenfield development, has prompted an about-face in the borough where Andy Burnham is now an MP.
Wigan, a former industrial powerhouse that sits between Manchester and Liverpool, had long prioritised logistics because of its proximity to the M6 and M62. But in August its leadership scrapped all four of the major employment sites from its draft local plan, featuring distribution, manufacturing, tech space and housing.
Rob Ford, professor of politics at the University of Manchester, said the situation captured the policy trade-offs facing Burnham, who as prime minister has promised devolution but also “good
“It’s also a microcosm of the political problem he inherited,” Ford added. Labour lost hundreds of councillors to Reform and the Greens last year, destabilising the party’s power base and leaving Labour councillors fearful of next May’s elections.
Anxiety over industrial development has amplified in Wigan since one imposing warehousing scheme drew national attention last year for its proximity to residential housing.
The sheds at PLP-operated Astley Business Park, which are up to 18 metres in height that cover a space equivalent to about five football pitches, were likened to “cruise liners”.
Labour lost all but one of the candidates it fielded to Reform in Wigan, where a third of seats were up for grabs.
About 500,000 sq m of employment space and housing have now been dumped from its proposed 13-year local plan, which will form the framework for planning applications.
Gregory, whose ward is most affected by the Tritax plan, told Labour colleagues last month that any planning application from the developer would be treated as “hostile”.
But the proposal has national significance, including for Burnham. ILP North would comprise 767,000 sq m of logistics and associated employment space, focused on a new rail hub intended to free up freight movement across the north-west.

As Greater Manchester mayor, Burnham requested about £200mn from the Treasury to move rail freight from Manchester to the new hub.
“That money [would be] spent at ILP North,” he told the FT in March last year. The plan would also free up space for the redevelopment of Manchester United’s Old Trafford stadium.
But the funding was refused and Burnham then expressed “major concerns” about the scale of ILP North.
ILP North would span two mayoral-ties, at a time when his government has put devolution at the heart of its agenda.

About two-thirds of it would sit in St Helens as part of the Liverpool City Region freeport, on the largest employment site available. Liverpool's mayor Steve Rotheram, a close friend of Burnham, has championed the scheme.
The rest would spill over into fields in the village of Lowton, Wigan, about a mile from the prime minister's home.
Gareth Edwards, a local resident who has campaigned against the scheme, said Lowton's roads were already swamped by heavy goods vehicles thundering through from the nearby M6.
“It really is on our doorstep,” said Edwards of the Tritax proposals, adding that residents would be “shocked” by the scale of what is proposed. “It’s good that Wigan has sat up and reacted.”
Burnham, who met residents to hear their concerns about a year ago, wrote to the local authorities in January, expressing “significant concerns” about ILP North’s impact on local communities.
The council's original draft local plan, published in 2025, prioritised “new high-quality employment sites” that take advantage of the borough's location on the M6, the East Lancashire Road into Manchester and a planned “growth

corridor" between Wigan and Bolton. Its subsequent U-turn has left investors weighing up the tension between local, mayoral and national policy.
Two of the four employment schemes pulled from the plan are owned by northern development giant Peel. This summer Wigan council also objected to the group's master plan for Gibfield Park, a greenfield development that has been in train for more than a decade.
The 45,000 sq m mixed-use scheme is part of the Northfold growth corridor, which has already been allocated funding from Burnham's Good Growth Fund. Peel did not respond to requests for comment.
Dane Anderton, Wigan council's Labour cabinet member for economic development and regeneration, said the local authority was focused on “the right type of growth in the right places”.
Tritax said its planned hub “would strengthen rail freight capacity between the north-west, UK ports and wider markets”.
The saga reflects the balancing act facing Burnham between national growth ambitions and a volatile political landscape leading into next May's local elections, said Ford.


奥利弗·巴恩斯 —— 纽约
CVS健康集团正在拆分其$117亿加元的医疗保健帝国,将其零售药房链条与保险业务分离,这将成为有史以来规模最大的企业分拆之一。
这一举措终结了为期两 decades的巨型并购浪潮,将CVS从一家始于马萨诸塞州单一门店的药店链,打造成一家跨越保险公司、药品利益管理(PBM)和零售药房的垂直整合医疗保健集团。
CVS昨日确认计划分拆其零售药房业务,该业务约9,000家门店预计将贡献集团市值的三分之一。其股票周二收盘时总市值为$116.9亿加元,是其历史最低点的两倍以上。昨日午后交易中,CVS股价下跌12%。
CVS正在与各州立法机构抗争,反对禁止公司同时拥有PBM和药房的法案。今年,阿肯色州和田纳西州成为首批提出此类措施的州份。
田纳西州立法机构今年通过了Fair Rx Act,禁止拥有同时运营PBM和保险公司的企业经营药房。CVS及其竞争对手Cigna已提起诉讼,试图阻止该法案生效,该法案定于2028年实施。在阿肯色州,一名法官暂时阻止了去年4月提出的该法案,并将其推迟进一步审查。
OLIVER BARNES — NEW YORK
CVS Health is breaking up its \$117bn healthcare empire, separating its retail pharmacy chain from its insurance business in what will rank as one of the largest corporate splits of all time.
The move unwinds two decades of megadeals that transformed CVS from a drugstore chain – starting life as a single outlet in Massachusetts – into a vertically integrated healthcare conglomerate spanning an insurer, pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) and retail pharmacy.
CVS yesterday confirmed it planned to spin off its retail pharmacy division, whose roughly 9,000 stores are projected to generate a third of the group's ket value stood at \$116.9bn at Tuesday's close, more than double its value at its nadir. Its shares were down 12 per cent during afternoon trading yesterday.
CVS is fighting states' legislation to ban companies from owning PBMs and pharmacies. Lawmakers in Arkansas and Tennessee were the first two states to introduce such measures.
Tennessee's state legislature this year passed the Fair Rx Act banning ownership of pharmacies by companies which run both a PBM and insurer. CVS and its rival Cigna have sued to try to block the measure, which is set to take effect in 2028. In Arkansas, a judge blocked the law, introduced in April last year, pending further review.
CVS集团今年营收达420亿加元,并计划将旗下药房业务以独立上市公司CVS Pharmacy形式剥离。该拆分计划将于2028,完成。
大卫·乔纳(David Joyner),CVS首席执行官兼董事长,将负责剩余的精简后医疗解决方案业务。该业务将重点关注Caremark(2007年以27亿加元收购的药品管理商)和Aetna(2018年以78亿加元收购的健康保险商)。
此次拆分背景下,医药行业面临政治压力,质疑药房与PBM(药品管理商)的联营模式,后者为保险公司和雇主管理处方药福利。
在大卫·乔纳2024,接任后,CVS股价已回弹,其旗下Aetna保险业务转亏为盈。但CVS药房股价曾在2024年12月跌至10年低点。CVS的药房业务在截至9月底的三个月内,营收下滑2%**。
这些变革在华盛顿获得了广泛跨党派支持。在美国参议院,民主党参议员伊丽莎白·沃伦(Elizabeth Warren)和共和党参议员乔什·霍利(Josh Hawley)重新提出立法,禁止PBM和药房的联营。
乔纳在声明中表示:“我们的历史始于积极进取,以应对医疗保健领域的未来挑战,而当前环境意味着我们需要提供更多的负担得起、更广泛的获取和更简单的体验。”
CVS在健康保险行业从财务压力中复苏,成本控制提升了保险业务的利润率,正值美国政府提高医疗保险计划支付率之际。CVS药房业务(落后于整体业务)在截至9月底的三个月内,营收下滑2%。
2024年9月,CVS的困境引起了激进对冲基金Glenview Capital的关注,该基金持有CVS1%股份,并促使原首席执行官凯伦·林奇(Karen Lynch)离职,同时增加了四名董事会成员。

\$420bn in revenue this year, as a separate listed company known as CVS Pharmacy. The separation would complete by the first half of 2028, it added.
David Joyner, CVS chief executive and chair, will run the remaining slimmed-down healthcare solutions business. It will focus on Caremark, the pharmacy benefit manager bought in a \$27bn takeover in 2007, and health insurer Aetna, acquired for \$78bn in 2018.
The break-up comes as the sector faces political pressure challenging the combined ownership of pharmacies and PBMs, which manage prescription benefits for insurers and employers.
Shares in CVS have bounced back under Joyner, who took over in 2024, driven by a turnaround at its Aetna insurance unit. Its stock sank to a 10-year low in December 2024. CVS's mar-
These changes have gained broad bipartisan support in Washington. In the US Senate, Democrat Elizabeth Warren and Republican Josh Hawley reintroduced legislation to prohibit PBM and pharmacy co-ownership.
"Our history is defined by proactively evolving to stay ahead of what's next in healthcare, and in today's environment, that means delivering more affordability, greater access and a simpler experience," said Joyner in a statement.
CVS has led the charge as the wider health insurance industry emerges from a period of financial strain. Cost controls have lifted margins at the health insurance unit just as the US government also increased payment rates for Medicare insurance plans. But CVS drugstores, which have lagged behind the wider business, posted a 2 per cent slide in revenues in the three months to the end of September.
In September 2024, CVS's struggles drew the attention of activist hedge fund Glenview Capital, which took a 1 per cent stake in the business, prompting the removal of Karen Lynch as chief executive and the addition of four directors to the board.
Cyber attack Dutch retailer Ahold Delhaize cuts forecasts after hack puts systems offline

AARON KIRCHFELD — LONDON LAURA DUBOIS — BRUSSELS
Ahold Delhaize, one of Europe's biggest supermarket chains, has cut its financial forecasts after suffering a cyber attack last month as retailers across the continent come under siege from hackers.
The Dutch supermarket chain said yesterday that it expected the attack to reduce its net sales by between €200mn and €250mn and to lower its operating profit by between €75mn and €100mn in the fourth quarter.
Ahold Delhaize was hit by a cyber attack that affected most of its brands across Europe and the US.
Stores in the Netherlands and Belgium were particularly affected and online shopping at various Ahold Delhaize brands was disrupted due to “the malicious actions of others”, it said.
"We proactively took certain systems offline, including our brands"
websites and apps, as a precautionary measure to protect them," the group wrote.
Frans Muller, president and chief executive of Ahold Delhaize, said in a statement: "While most of the disruption was contained within two weeks, work continues to fully restore our normal operations."
He added: “Cyber threats are an increasingly harsh reality of doing business today and moments like these remind us not only of our shared vulnerabilities but also of the strength of our relationships and the importance of standing together.”
In a separate attack this week, freezers at dozens of supermarkets across Europe, including Ahold Delhaize, suddenly overheated after hackers broke into refrigeration systems for a second time in a matter of weeks, raising the alarm over the continent's food security.
The latest attack, which ruined food worth millions of euros, hit stores in Belgium, Sweden, Finland, Ireland and Estonia.
In Belgium, about 40 Delhaize shops were affected. It came weeks after hundreds of French supermarkets suffered similar attacks.
On Tuesday, France's national blood service, the EFS, said it was also affected with temperatures in three of its cold-storage rooms rising dramatically. The EFS said the problem was identified quickly and none of the contents of the rooms, which store bags of plasma, were compromised.
Nobody has claimed responsibility for the attacks. Following the French supermarket attacks, experts said the hackers might be anyone from disaffected western teenagers to a state-backed adversary with a strategic goal with some researchers suggesting links to Russia.

欧洲最大零售商之一Ahold Delhaize,因上月遭遇网络攻击,财务预期遭到下调。随着欧洲大陆零售商纷纷遭到黑客袭击,该事件进一步凸显了这一风险。
荷兰超市连锁公司Ahold Delhaize表示,网络攻击将导致其第四季度净销售额下降€200百万,运营利润下降€75百万至€100百万。
Delhaize遭遇网络攻击,影响其欧洲和美国的大部分品牌。
荷兰和比利时的门店受到严重影响,多个 Delhaize品牌的在线购物也因“他人恶意行为”受到干扰。
该公司表示:“我们主动关闭了部分系统,包括品牌网站和应用程序,以预防性保护。”
弗朗斯·穆勒(Frans Muller), Delhaize总裁兼首席执行官,在声明中表示:“尽管大部分干扰在两周内得到控制,但工作仍在继续,以完全恢复正常运营。”
他补充道:“网络威胁日益成为当今商业的严峻现实,这样的时刻提醒我们共同的脆弱性,以及我们关系的力量和团结的重要性。”
在比利时,约有40家德尔哈伊超市受到影响。此事发生在数周前,数百家法国超市遭遇了类似的袭击。
周二,法国国家输血服务机构(EFS)表示,其冷藏室中的三个房间温度急剧上升,也受到影响。EFS表示问题被迅速发现,且这些房间内存放的血浆袋未受损害。
尚无任何一方声称对这些袭击负责。在法国超市遭袭后,专家表示,黑客可能来自西方不满的青少年,或是有战略目标的国家支持者,其中一些研究人员猜测与俄罗斯有关。

Meta的一位高管表示,即将到来的“人口崩溃”意味着人工智能驱动的生产力提升“迫在眉睫”,技术领袖试图说服持怀疑态度的公众,认为强大的技术将会惠及他们的生活。
Meta(Facebook母公司)首席数据官亚历克斯·舒尔茨(Alex Schultz)在昨日举办的《金融时报》人工智能未来峰会上表示:“整个世界还没有足够深入思考诸如人口崩溃这样的问题……我们迫切需要更多的生产力。”他补充道:“我们如何照顾老年人?如何让自己能够充分利用地球上的所有人口呢?”
全球人口预计将在2064年达到峰值,而劳动人口则因寿命延长和出生率下降而更快缩减。
舒尔茨的言论出现在Meta竞争OpenAI、Anthropic和Google的关键时刻,该公司已在人工智能野心上投入数十亿美元。
Meta首席执行官马克·扎克伯格(Mark Zuckerberg)上月告诉《金融时报》,其新模型Muse Wonder已经追上竞争对手,达到了“前沿”水平,而其面向消费者的Muse代理自9月发布以来已被下载数百万次。
这些进展出现在对AI热潮背后支出可持续性的更广泛担忧之际,Meta上周宣布计划筹集额外950亿(950亿美元)以支持其支出。
舒尔茨称赞人工智能的生产力益处,表示AI已经“加速”软件工程师的工作,并为律师节省了“大量时间”。
但他也承认,并非所有AI应用都带来了生产力提升,一些工作者“浪费代币(tokens)却没有明显价值”。在他的团队内,不到一半的人员有效使用了这项技术,他补充道。
舒尔茨表示,随着更先进模型的普及,生产力正在改善,他自己“对新技术的接受速度较慢”,直到今年初OpenClaw推广所谓的“vibe编码”(vibe coding)后才开始使用。
然而,他回应了对技术导致大规模失业的担忧,表示“拥有工具不会消除工作,它只是改变了工作”。

One of Meta's top executives has said that impending “population collapse” means AI-driven productivity gains are “desperately” needed to support society, as tech leaders seek to persuade a sceptical public that the powerful technology will benefit their lives.
Alex Schultz, Facebook parent company's chief data officer, told the FT's Future of AI summit yesterday: “The world as a whole isn't thinking hard enough about things like population collapse . . . We desperately need more productivity,” he said. “How are we going to care for elderly people? How are we going to put ourselves in a place where we can actually make the most of the number of people on Earth?”
The global population is expected to peak in 2064, while the working population is set to shrink more quickly due to longer lifespans and falling birth rates.
Schultz's comments come as Meta races to compete with OpenAI, Anthropic and Google, having spent billions of dollars on its AI ambitions.
Chief executive Mark Zuckerberg told the FT last month that its new model, Muse Wonder, had caught up with rivals to reach the “frontier”, while its consumer-focused Muse agent has been downloaded millions of times since its launch in September.
These developments have come amid broader concerns about the sustainability of the spending spree behind the AI boom, with Meta announcing plans to raise an additional \$95bn to fuel its spending last week.
Extolling the productivity benefits of AI, Schultz said AI was already “accelerating” software engineers’ jobs and saving “a tonne of time” for lawyers.
But he acknowledged that not all AI use had led to increased productivity, with some workers “burning tokens with no obvious value”. Within his own team, “less than half” were using the technology effectively, he added.
Productivity gains were improving with the accessibility of more recent models, Schultz said, adding that he was “pretty slow on the uptake” until OpenClaw popularised so-called vibe coding at the start of the year.
However, he pushed back against fears about the technology leading to widespread unemployment, saying that “having tools doesn’t eliminate jobs, it just changes them”.

在中国西北部甘肃省沙漠上空的明亮蓝天中,一个小小的白点出现,吸引了地面上少数观众的欢呼。片刻后,一枚不锈钢火箭出现在视野中,其着陆装置展开,朝着回收地点8月返回陆地。一位目击者说:“我的心跳一下子停止了。”
朱雀三号Y2火箭的8月发射和返回陆地标志着北京基地的蓝箭航天加入了3家私营公司(埃隆·马斯克的SpaceX、杰夫·贝佐斯旗下的蓝色起源以及蓝箭航天本身)成功回收轨道发射后的火箭助推器。
蓝箭航天计划于明年初在上海科创板(中国本土科技企业的纳斯达克替代品)上市,预计将再次实现里程碑式突破。
蓝箭航天及其创始人张昌武的故事展示了中国共产党如何利用私营部门——以及该国科学家、工程师和企业家的聪明才智,以其他国家难以企及的速度实现国家战略目标。
2010年代初,北京对国有企业在商业太空领域与美国企业竞争的缓慢进展感到越来越不满,急需该行业开发并部署卫星以提供现代数据和通信服务。
2014年,习近平政府宣布将太空产业开放给私人投资,2015年,刺激了数百家初创公司的成立,并促使全国各省推出国家支持措施。

n the bright blue morning sky, high above the desert dunes in China's north-western Gansu, a small white dot emerged, drawing shrieks of
delight from the small group of people gathered below. Moments later, the stainless-steel rocket came into view, its landing gear splayed out as it approached the recovery site. "My heart skipped a beat," said one onlooker.
The August launch and return to land of the Zhuque-3 Y2 signified that Beijing-based LandSpace had joined the likes of Elon Musk's SpaceX and Jeff Bezos-owned Blue Origin as private companies in successfully recovering a rocket booster after an orbital launch.
LandSpace is on track to reach another milestone early next year when it is expected to list shares on Shanghai's Star Market, China's Nasdaq alternative for domestic tech champions.
The story of LandSpace and its founder Zhang Changwu highlights how the ruling Chinese Communist Party is able to leverage the private sector — and the brilliant minds of the country's scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs — to achieve national strategic aims at a speed most countries would envy.
In the early 2010s, Beijing grew ever more frustrated over slow progress by state-owned enterprises in their ability to compete with American groups in the commercial space sector. It needed the industry to develop and deploy satellites for modern data and communication services.
In 2014, Xi Jinping's administration signalled it would open the space industry to private investment, spurring the creation of hundreds of start-ups and prompting provinces across the country to roll out state support.
Zhang, a bespectacled graduate of the elite Tsinghua University who had also worked at HSBC and Banco Santander, was among those who seized the moment, founding LandSpace in June in 2015. Investors were immediately attracted by not just the broader opportunity of China's space sector but also the eager Zhang's conviction to look beyond established technologies of solid-fuelled rockets to those powered by newer fuels such as liquid oxygen methane.
Blaine Curcio, a veteran consultant and analyst covering China's space sector, said equally important was Beijing's allowing the flow of talent from the state to the pri-
私营部门。他表示:“这是商业航天领域的一个非常重要的里程碑时刻——即允许国有企业(SOEs)的高管被商业公司雇佣这一理念。”
回顾兰空(LandSpace)迄今的发展历程,Curcio指出,从成立到常规成功发射的轨迹与SpaceX相当。他表示:“在11年内,他们取得的进展比欧洲大多数公司和大部分美国公司都要快。”
一份2014年7月(原文未明确年份,但上下文应为2024)由美国战略与国际研究中心(Center for Strategic and International Studies)发布的报告指出,自开放私人投资以来,中国商业航天产业已发展至600家公司,涵盖发射服务和卫星通信领域,较2014年的数十家大幅增长。
目前,兰空和SpaceX并非直接竞争对手,因为彼此均无法进入对方的本土市场。然而,他们在高风险的美中争夺太空技术主导权的较量中,是重要的代理人。
专家警告称,中国以国家为主导的模式可能会带来经济问题,包括过度投资和供应链重复建设。
但欧亚集团(Eurasia)的中国主管王丹(Dan Wang)表示,北京在商业航天等领域的产业策略更应理解为“国家协调”而非“国家指导”。国家将通过公司内部党委、董事会席位和大型国有相关集团的股权持有,对这些集团保持密切监控。
“并非国家要直接管理企业,而是国家施加额外角色”,王丹补充道。此外,公司高管常常兼任国家顾问职务,如2025年加入中国人民政治协商会议的情况即是一例。
驻深圳的国际管理发展学院(International Institute for Management Development)创新与战略教授马克·格里文(Mark Greeven)指出,兰空符合中国模式,即北京通过为战略产业创造条件,允许“企业家围绕机遇聚集”,并构建新公司生态系统和供应链,使其繁荣发展。
“企业家自由和超级竞争是该模式运作的关键”,他表示。
vate sector. "That was a very important, watershed moment for commercial space: this idea that top people from SOEs are allowed to be hired by commercial companies," he said.
Now, looking back at LandSpace's journey so far, Curcio says the trajectory from founding to regular successful launches is comparable with that of SpaceX. "In 11 years, they've made a lot more progress than European firms and most American firms," he said.
A July report by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a US think-tank, found that since being opened to private investment, China's commercial space industry has grown to
600 companies across launch services and satellite communications, up from a few dozen in 2014.
At it stands, LandSpace and SpaceX are not in immediate competition, as neither is allowed in the other's home market. However, they are important proxies in the high-stakes US-China battle to dominate space technology.
Experts caution that China's state-led approach can create economic issues, including excessive investments and supply chain duplications.
But Dan Wang, a China director at Eurasia, a consultancy, said Beijing's industrial strategy in sectors such as commercial space is better understood as “state co-ordination” rather than “state direction”. The state will maintain a close watch on the groups via companies' internal party committees, board seats and shareholdings by large state-linked groups.
“It is not that the state wants to manage the company, but there are additional roles that the state imposes on them,” Wang added. It is also common for company executives to take up state advisory roles, as Zhang did in 2025, joining Beijing’s Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference.
Mark Greeven, a Shenzhen-based professor of innovation and strategy at the International Institute for Management Development, points out LandSpace “fits” the Chinese model, where Beijing tries to set the conditions for strategic industries by allowing space for “entrepreneurs to swarm around opportunities” and build out the ecosystem and supply chain for new companies to prosper.
“Entrepreneurial freedom and hyper-competition is essential for the model to work,” he says.

律师被聘请追索股权分红,律师事务所准备清算
苏杰特·因达普、凯伊·威金斯和奥利弗·巴恩斯 —— 纽约苏齐·林 —— 伦敦
前韦尔·戈什尔·曼吉斯律师事务所(Weil, Gotshal & Manges)的合伙人聘请了律师代表他们在事务所即将清算期间,争取回收部分股权价值。据知情人士透露,约有10名前合伙人(包括过去五年离职的律师,但不包括最近几个月离职潮中的律师)正与福利·拉德纳律师事务所(Foley & Lardner)的律师彼得·王(Peter Wang)合作。
王曾代表超过100名律师处理2012年德威·勒博夫(Dewey LeBoeuf)破产案,该事务所是一家位于纽约的大型公司律师事务所,因负债过重而倒闭。
近日,王已经与韦尔的外部法律顾问戴维斯·波尔克·沃德韦尔(Davis Polk & Wardwell)取得了联系。
这一举动是韦尔律师事务所即将解散后可能出现的法律斗争的早期迹象。韦尔上周宣布将“以有序方式”清算其运营,因为管理层认为在一系列离职后,事务所的收入产生律师人数不足。
位于洛杉矶的吉布森·邓恩律师事务所(Gibson Dunn)正在洽谈从韦尔事务所招聘最多120名律师(包括美国和伦敦的律师),这是法律行业史上最大规模的横向招聘之一。
据知情人士透露,超过20名合伙人计划加入该团队,其中包括韦尔私募基金部门的领导人,包括纽约的安德鲁·奇兹克(Andrew Chizzik)、伦敦私募基金部门的联席主管詹姆斯·布罗姆利(James Bromley)和詹姆斯·萨金特(James Sargent)。
律师涵盖基金结构、监管、税务和金融等领域。约有12名合伙人预计将加入美国团队。
法律行业出版物《律师》(law.com)上周报道称,约40人规模的基金团队计划加入伦敦的吉布森·邓恩,这部分人员属于120人洽谈范围。
合伙人将在未来几天投票决定正式清算韦尔律师事务所,该事务所拥有1,200名律师,年收入20亿美元。
律师事务所通常由合伙人所有——即资深律师,他们领导业务并分享利润。
拥有韦尔股权的合伙人(包括一些退休和离职但尚未完全获得股权回报的律师)只有在剩余客户支付的金额超过事务所对办公室租金和供应商的债务时,才能期望获得分红。数百万美元的合伙人股权价值可能在清算过程中面临被清零的风险。
此外,多名现任和前任律师告诉《金融时报》,他们对韦尔长期执行合伙人巴里·沃尔夫(Barry Wolf)的管理方式感到不满,并希望调查华尔街事务所在最后几个月的管理情况。他们说,一项针对韦尔管理委员会的违反忠实义务诉讼仍然是可能的。
“刀子已经出鞘了,”一位韦尔律师说,“有真金白银在争夺,至少有2美元的利益,而且完全缺乏信任。”
《金融时报》此前报道称,韦尔正在任命一支“清算”委员会,由部分剩余韦尔律师组成,可能包括沃尔夫,以及外部重组专家。
事务所已经聘请咨询公司艾利克斯·帕特纳斯(AlixPartners)与其内部财务团队合作,管理韦尔在关闭过程中账簿。
韦尔、沃尔夫和王未回应置评请求。吉布森·邓恩拒绝置评。
Litigator hired to chase equity payouts as firm prepares for wind-down
SUJEET INDAP, KAYE WIGGINS AND OLIVER BARNES — NEW YORK SUZI RING — LONDON
Former partners at Weil, Gotshal & Manges have hired legal counsel to represent them in the law firm's impending wind-down amid a rush by current and past practitioners to recover part of the value of their stakes in the business.
A group of about 10 former partners, including lawyers who left in the past five years but none who departed in the wave of exits over recent months, is working with Peter Wang, a litigator at Foley & Lardner, according to people familiar with the matter.
Wang previously represented more than 100 lawyers in the 2012 bankruptcy of Dewey LeBoeuf, a major New York-based corporate firm that succumbed to a heavy debt load.
Wang has in recent days reached out to Weil's outside counsel at Davis Polk & Wardwell.
The move is an early indication of the legal battles likely to flow from the demise of Weil, which announced last week that it would pursue “an orderly wind-down” of its operations after its management determined that not enough of its revenue-generating lawyers remained after a series of defections.
Los Angeles-based law firm Gibson Dunn is in talks to hire as many as 120 lawyers from Weil in the US and London, in one of the biggest lateral moves ever in the legal industry.
More than 20 partners are among the group planning to move, including leaders of Weil's private funds groups in the US and UK, according to people familiar with the matter.
The team includes Andrew Chizzik, Weil's head of private funds in New York, and the co-heads of Weil's London private funds group, James Bromley and James Sargent, the people said.
The lawyers span fund structuring, regulation, tax and finance. About 12 of the partners are expected to join in the US.
Legal industry publication law.com reported last week that a near 40-strong funds team was set to move to Gibson Dunn in London, which is part of the 120 in talks.
Partners will vote in the coming days to formally wind down Weil, which has
1,200 lawyers and \$2bn in annual revenue.
Law firms are typically owned by their partners – the senior practitioners who lead the businesses and share in their profits.
Partners who own equity in Weil – including some retired and departed lawyers who have yet to be repaid in full for their stakes – would only expect payouts if the remaining amounts collected from clients exceeded those owed by the firm on its office leases and to its vendors.
Total partner equity worth tens or hundreds of millions of dollars could be at risk of being wiped out in the wind-down.
Separately, several current and former lawyers told the FT they were frustrated with Weil's longtime executive partner Barry Wolf and wanted to probe how the Wall Street firm was managed in its final months. They said that a lawsuit alleging breach of fiduciary duty against the Weil management committee remained a possibility.
“Knives are out,” said one of the Weil lawyers. “There are real dollars at stake and there is a total lack of trust.”
The FT previously reported that Weil was in the process of appointing a “wind-down” committee to be composed of some remaining Weil lawyers, likely to include Wolf, as well as external restructuring experts.
The firm has hired consulting firm AlixPartners to work with its internal finance team on managing Weil's books during the shutdown effort.
Weil, Wolf and Wang did not respond to requests for comment. Gibson Dunn declined to comment.
顾问公司(Accenture)与西班牙大学合作发表的一份关于人工智能的报告中,充斥着虚假引用、错误归属的研究和看似不存在的案例,引发指控称该顾问公司发表的信息存在“AI幻觉”问题。
一份关于人工智能在非洲农业潜力的论文,由IT咨询公司和西班牙大学共同出版,根据AI检测业务GPTZero的调查,该报告包含多处事实错误,其中15个引用存在错误,如标题或作者姓名不准确。
GPTZero联合创始人Edward Tian表示,这些错误“极其符合AI幻觉的模式,而非人类研究中偶尔出现的不准确性”。
Accenture表示,尽管在2023年被指定为独立评估Anthropic人工智能模型安全性的机构(仅提及“九月”而未明确年份),但称“未发现证据表明这些错误是由AI幻觉造成的”,但随后补充称将对出版物进行修正。
Accenture表示:“我们的审查显示,报告中发现的错误是由人为错误造成的。没有证据表明它们是通过AI幻觉生成的。”
该顾问公司拒绝说明如何得出这一结论,或提供进一步细节。
Accenture表示,修正后的报告将重新发布,并补充称:“我们总是会抓住机会提升报告的质量。”
2025年11月出版的报告——《跨越式发展:利用人工智能解锁非洲在全球价值链中的潜力》——由Accenture和IE大学共同出版。该报告的四位作者和两位编辑均来自Accenture,该公司已重组业务,大力使用AI并为客户提供采用该技术的建议。
该论文在Accenture的网站上发表,提及一项由位于纽约的Accenture办公室托管的技术,并声称在厄瓜多尔可可生产中取得了成果(图片来源:Angus Mordant / Bloomberg;Philippe Lissac / Godong / Universal Images Group / Getty Images)。
报告中提到的SAATN组织被标识为“南非农业科技网络”(Southern Africa AgriTech Network)和“南非农业转型网络”(Southern African Agriculture Transformation Network),但两者均不存在。
此外,报告声称预测性AI显著提高了可可植物肿胀病的检测,在哥伦比亚和厄瓜多尔的准确率达到99%。然而,该声明的来源是一篇关于西非的文章,并未提及这些南美洲国家,而在这些国家中,几乎没有证据表明该病存在。
其他错误包括错误引用2023年牛津AI准备指数中加纳和乌干达的排名,并提供了一个断裂的网络链接作为引用。
报告中还发现了多个引用错误。Tian表示,“人类引用错误通常较小且孤立,如错误的年份、格式或断裂的链接。”相比之下,“大型语言模型(LLMs)生成的参考文献看起来完全可信,但并不存在。这导致虚构的论文标题、看似合理但虚假的组织,以及编造的案例与真实主体相结合。”
Accenture的报告声称,“由青年和女性领导的数字平台在哥伦比亚和洪都拉斯实现了高度采用,当嵌入包容性治理结构时”。然而,该声明提供的两个引用均不存在。
这份49页的报告还包含了无法链接到原始来源文章的网络链接。其中一处引用错误地拼写了作者的姓名,并列出了两位并未在原始论文中被标注为撰稿人的作者。
安永(Accenture)公司大力鼓励员工使用人工智能——开发培训课程,并将使用人工智能作为决定晋升的一项要素——正值投资者观察该技术是否能提升每位员工的收入时。去年一轮裁员主要集中在无法重新培训以适应该技术的员工身上。
“‘人类引用错误往往是小规模且孤立的。相比之下,大型语言模型生成的参考文献听起来完全可信,但并不存在。’”
AI检测工具,包括GPTZero的工具,因在某些情况下错误地将人类撰写的内容标记为人工智能生成内容而受到批评。
GPTZero表示,其已手动检查了该工具在安永报告中标记的所有错误,并进行了额外的开源情报核查。此前,GPTZero已在普华永道(PwC)、德勤(KPMG)和毕马威(EY)的研究中识别出人工智能幻觉,其中后两家公司在其发现后撤回了相关报告。
IE大学表示:“报告的作者以极高的严谨性开展工作和分析。如果确认存在任何错误,他们将对报告进行必要的更正,并加强现有流程以防止类似问题在未来再次发生。”IE大学补充称,报告的作者正在“审查报告中使用的来源和数据,以理解这些差异可能是如何产生的”。

Consultancy published report littered with inaccuracies but says human error was to blame
ELIZABETH BRATTON — LONDON
Accenture co-authored a report about artificial intelligence that was littered with false citations, incorrectly attributed research and case studies that appear not to exist, prompting accusations the consultancy published information marred by AI hallucinations.
A paper about the potential of AI in African agriculture, published by the IT consulting firm and a Spanish university, contained several factual errors and 15 citations with errors such as incorrect titles or author names, according to an investigation by AI detection business GPTZero.
Edward Tian, co-founder of GPTZero, said the errors, which were checked by the FT, were “overwhelmingly consistent with the patterns of AI hallucinations rather than the occasional inaccuracies associated with human research”.
Accenture, which was named in September as an independent evaluator to assess the safety of Anthropic's AI models, said there was “no evidence” that the errors were the result of AI hallucination but then subsequently added that it would make corrections to the publication.
Accenture said: “Our review indicates that the errors identified in the report were the result of human error. There is no evidence to support the conclusion that they were generated through AI hallucination.”
The consultancy declined to say how it reached this conclusion or provide further details of how it concluded the errors were made.
It said the corrected report would be re-released, adding: “We will always embrace the opportunity to strengthen the quality of our reports.”
The November 2025 report – titled “Leapfrogging Development: Unlocking Africa’s Potential in Global Value Chains with Artificial Intelligence” – was published by Accenture and IE University. Two of its four authors and both of its editors are staff from Accenture, which has revamped its business to make heavy use of AI and advise clients on how to adopt the technology.
The paper, published on Accenture's website, made two references to technology hosted by an organisation called
Accenture's office in New York. The consultancy made claims relating to cocoa production in Ecuador, below Angus Mordant/Bloomberg; Philippe Lissac/Godong/Universal Images Group/Getty Images
SAATN – identified as both the “Southern Africa AgriTech Network” and the “Southern African Agriculture Transformation Network”. Neither network appears to exist.
It also claimed that predictive AI had “significantly improved” the detection of swollen shoot disease among cocoa plants, reaching 99 per cent accuracy in Colombia and Ecuador. The source cited for this claim, however, was an article focused on west Africa without any mention of these South American countries, where there is minimal evidence to suggest the disease is present.

Other errors included incorrectly stating the rankings of Ghana and Uganda in a 2023 Oxford AI readiness index, providing a broken web link as citation.
Several citation-related errors were identified in the report. Tian said that “human citation errors tend to be small and isolated”, such as incorrect years, formatting or a broken link. “By contrast, LLMs generate references that sound entirely credible but do not exist. This results in fabricated paper titles, plausible-sounding but fake organisations, and invented case studies stitched to real actors,” he said.
The Accenture paper stated that “youth- and women-led digital platforms have achieved high uptake” in Colombia and Honduras “when embedded in [an] inclusive governance structure”. Neither of the citations provided for this claim appears to exist.
The 49-page report also contains web links that do not follow through to the source article cited. One citation misspelt the name of the author and listed two authors who were not named as writers on the source paper.
Accenture has heavily encouraged its staff to use AI – developing training courses and making the use of AI a crite-
'Human citation errors tend to be small and isolated. By contrast, LLMs generate references that sound entirely credible but do not exist'
rion for deciding promotions – at a time when investors are watching to see if the technology will improve revenue per employee. A round of lay-offs last year was concentrated among staff who could not be retrained to make use of the technology.
AI detection tools, including GPTZero's, have been criticised for wrongly flagging human-written content as AI-generated in some cases.
GPTZero said it had manually checked each of the errors flagged by its tool in the Accenture paper and made additional checks with open-source intelligence. It has previously identified AI hallucinations in research by PwC, KPMG and EY, with the latter two retracting reports following its findings.
IE University said: “The authors of the report approach their work and analysis with the utmost rigour. Should any errors be confirmed, they will make the necessary corrections to the report and strengthen the processes in place to help prevent similar issues from occurring in the future.” It added that the authors of the report were “reviewing the sources and data underlying the report to understand how these discrepancies may have arisen”.

甲骨文公司撤销了一项多亿加元的芯片租赁合同,该合同原本与腾讯签订,原因是受到特朗普政府的施压,这标志着为服务中国AI公司的美国云服务提供商面临日益升级的紧张局势。
这家由拉里·埃利森(Larry Ellison)领导的加利福尼亚公司,埃利森是美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的亿万富翁支持者,曾与中国领先的科技巨头腾讯签订了一项为期五年的租赁协议,为腾讯提供高达10万枚先进AI芯片的访问权限,这些芯片分布在东南亚多个数据中心。
这项估计价值7亿加元的协议,于今年9月首次由《金融时报》报道,是腾讯海外最大的租赁交易之一。该协议将为腾讯提供在华盛顿和北京限制下无法在国内使用的芯片。
据两名知情人士透露,美国官员曾向甲骨文提出对腾讯交易的关切。广东省的高级官员也曾要求腾讯支持国内中国芯片。
该协议已被取消,

Oracle has scrapped a multibillion-dollar chip leasing contract with Tencent after bowing to pressure from the Trump administration, in a sign of rising tensions for US cloud providers serving Chinese AI companies.
The Californian group led by Larry Ellison, the billionaire backer of US President Donald Trump, signed a five-year lease with the leading Chinese tech giant to provide access to as many as 100,000 advanced AI chips across a host of data centres in south-east Asia.
The contract, worth an estimated \$7bn and first reported by the FT in September, was Tencent's largest overseas leasing deal. It would have given the group access to chips unavailable for use in China due to curbs from Washington and Beijing.
US officials approached Oracle to raise concerns about the Tencent deal, according to two people familiar with the matter. Tencent also received visits from senior officials in Guangdong, where the group is based, who asked the tech giant to support domestic Chinese chips, according to one of the people.
The deal has since been cancelled, the
甲骨文、腾讯和白宫均未立即回应置评请求。
事件显示,随着各自国家争夺技术霸主地位,中美领先的科技公司在发展AI时面临日益增长的困难。
国内供应短缺和美国日益严格的出口管制导致中国科技集团寻求更多海外计算能力。这些租赁协议还能为中国科技巨头提供在国内无法获得的英伟达(Nvidia)最先进处理器。中国科技巨头和前沿AI实验室正在利用这些资源,特别是用于训练模型,因为国内芯片目前无法完成这些任务。
虽然这些海外租赁协议在现有规则下是允许的,但美国公司面临越来越大的压力,减少对中国客户的暴露。《金融时报》周二报道称,英伟达已告知云计算客户,他们必须将至少51%的服务销售给非中国公司。
虽然腾讯正在积极开展租赁交易,但字节跳动和阿里巴巴仍然是东南亚数据中心最大的客户。
甲骨文是字节跳动在亚洲的主要供应商,在马来西亚拥有多个数据中心。该公司还曾为字节跳动的社交媒体平台抖音(TikTok)托管美国客户数据,并在去年晚些时候成为一家联盟的一部分,收购了该应用的美国业务。
随着美国出口管制日益严格,阻止英伟达高级芯片通过中间地点进入中国,中国AI集团在东南亚的需求日益加剧。这导致数据中心租赁协议的价格上涨、合同期限延长和前期支付增加。
people added. Oracle, Tencent and the White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The incident shows the growing difficulties for leading US and Chinese companies in developing AI as their respective nations seek to become the pre-eminent technological superpower.
A shortage of domestic supply and tightening American export controls have led Chinese tech groups to seek more computing capacity overseas. Such lease deals could also offer access to Nvidia's cutting-edge processors not available in China. Chinese tech giants and frontier AI labs are tapping into these resources, especially for the training of their models, as domestic chips cannot perform such tasks yet.
While such overseas leasing deals are allowed under existing rules, US companies have faced growing pressure to cut the exposure to Chinese customers. The FT reported on Tuesday that Nvidia has told cloud computing clients they must now sell at least 51 per cent of their services to non-Chinese companies.
While Tencent is catching up with leasing deals, ByteDance and Alibaba remain the biggest clients of data centres in south-east Asia.
Oracle is a major supplier to Byte-Dance in Asia with multiple data centres in Malaysia. The company also hosted US customer data for the Chinese group's social media platform TikTok before being part of a consortium that late last year acquired the app's US operations.
Demand from Chinese AI groups in south-east Asia has intensified amid tightening export controls that prevent Nvidia's advanced chips from entering China via an intermediate location. This has led to increased prices, longer terms and higher upfront payments for these data centre lease agreements.

优步(Uber)昨日表示,计划明年部署超过2,000辆机器人出租车,以向投资者保证其自动驾驶赌注的前景,同时其核心业务正面临司机短缺和燃油价格上涨的双重压力。
总部位于旧金山的这家公司告诉投资者,其移动性业务在截至9月30日的三个月内营收约为7.5亿加元,比分析师预期低2亿加元。集团总营收约为14.8亿加元,比预测高1亿加元。
净利润1.4亿加元大幅低于预期的2.2亿加元,主要是因为公司拨备了4.84 亿加元用于潜在的法律和税务和解。
首席执行官达拉·科斯罗瓦希(Dara Khosrowshahi)表示,中东战争导致的燃油成本上升正在抑制增长,并且预计在第四季度由于“最近在繁忙旅行季节期间的升级”情况将进一步恶化。
他补充说:“在多个国际市场,燃油成本上涨、当地劳动力条件收紧以及对司机的竞争,限制了我们全面满足消费者需求的能力。”
科斯罗瓦希表示,优步正在通过提高费用和报名奖励(如10加元激励)等措施激励司机。该公司还面临来自自动驾驶平台(如阿尔法贝特旗下的Waymo)的日益加剧的竞争,今年其股价下跌了17%。
科斯罗瓦希表示,优步计划今年在其平台上拥有约700辆完全无人驾驶的车辆,到2027年底将增加到超过2,000辆。
优步承诺将花费超过100亿加元扩大其机器人出租车网络,并计划长期部署超过120,000辆无人驾驶车辆。
该公司在全球九个城市提供有限服务,包括奥斯汀、亚特兰大和伦敦,并计划今年再增加15个城市。
竞争对手Waymo目前拥有约4,000辆车辆,主要在美运营。据知情人士透露,这家由阿尔法贝特(Alphabet)所有的业务计划今年年底拥有超过8,000辆汽车。
优步表示,其总交易额(衡量客户在业务中的消费总额)在第三季度同比增长20%至59.8亿加元,与分析师的估计一致。
9月份,优步宣布计划裁减约3,300个全球岗位(约占总员工的十分之一),以腾出资金用于投资,包括其机器人出租车业务。
过去一年,优步在管理层面经历了重大变动。总裁吉尔·哈泽尔贝克(Jill Hazelbaker)将于下月加入OpenAI,全球配送部门负责人苏珊·安德森(Susan Anderson)于6月离职。自动驾驶部门负责人萨尔法兹·马雷迪亚(Sarfraz Maredia)计划于本月离职。

Uber said yesterday that it planned to deploy more than 2,000 robotaxis next year as it sought to reassure investors about its autonomous bet at a time when its core business is being buffeted by driver shortages and higher fuel prices.
The San Francisco-based company told investors that revenues in its mobility business were about \$7.5bn in the three months to September 30, about \$200mn below analysts' expectations. Group revenues were about \$100mn higher than forecast at \$14.8bn.
Operating profit of \$1.4bn was sharply below expectations of \$2.2bn after the company set aside \$484mn for potential legal and tax settlements.
Chief executive Dara Khosrowshahi said higher fuel costs stemming from the Middle East war had hit growth, and that Uber expected the situation to worsen in the fourth quarter given "recent escalations during the busy travel season".
He added: “In multiple international markets elevated fuel costs, tighter local labour conditions and competition for drivers constrained our ability to fully serve consumer demand.”
Khosrowshahi said that Uber was taking steps to give incentives to drivers through improved fees and sign-up bonuses. The company is also facing intensifying competition in the ride-hailing market from autonomous platforms such as Alphabet's Waymo, with shares down 17 per cent this year.
Khosrowshahi said Uber was on track to have about 700 fully driverless vehicles on its platform this year, rising to more than 2,000 by the end of 2027.
It has pledged to spend more than \$10bn expanding its robotaxi network and aims to deploy more than 120,000 driverless vehicles over time.
The company operates limited services in nine cities globally, including
Austin, Atlanta and London, and plans to add as many as 15 this year.
Rival Waymo has about 4,000 vehicles on the road, mostly in the US. The Alphabet-owned business aims to have more than 8,000 cars on the road by the end of this year, according to people familiar with the matter.
Uber said gross bookings — a measure of customer spending across the business — rose 20 per cent year on year to \$59.8bn in the third quarter, in line with analysts' estimates.
In September Uber announced plans to cut about a tenth of its global workforce, or about 3,300 roles, to free up cash for investments including its robotaxi business.
Uber has also experienced significant changes in management in the past year. President Jill Hazelbaker is joining OpenAI next month, while global head of delivery Susan Anderson left in June. Sarfraz Maredia, head of autonomy, is scheduled to leave this month.

宝马表示,尽管西方汽车制造商在全球最大汽车市场中国加速转型电动车,但预计内燃机在中国至少还能存活10年。
中国汽车市场中燃油车销量持续下滑,促使欧洲汽车制造商连续多个季度下调预期。宝马昨日发布了自6月以来的第二份利润预警。
中国燃油车市场份额已跌破35%,受到燃油价格上涨和国内电动车厂商强势发力的影响。
宝马首席财务官沃尔特·梅特尔(Walter Mertl)昨日表示:“我们认为内燃机市场在特定价格区间仍有生命力。这一趋势将持续到下一个十年。我们对此深信不疑。”
尽管持乐观态度,宝马将加速推出基于“Neue Klasse”软件控制平台的电动车型,以重振中国市场销量。宝马集团还将把中国制造的车辆出口到亚洲其他地区。
梅特尔补充道:“我们坚信自己在中国电动车市场将非常成功。”宝马表示,将加速其结构性调整措施并淘汰基于旧电池技术的电动车型。
宝马集团在7月至9月季度的营业利润较去年同期下降30%至€1.6亿,略高于分析师预期的€1.5亿。营收下降6%至€30亿,其中中国市场销量同比下滑2,5%。

KANA INAGAKI — LONDON
BMW has said it expects the internal combustion engine to survive in China for at least a decade, even as western carmakers struggle to keep up with the pace of transition to electric vehicles in the world's largest car market.
Collapsing sales of petrol vehicles in China have prompted a series of downgrades from European carmakers in recent quarters including BMW, which yesterday issued its second profit warning since June.
The market share of combustion engine vehicles has fallen below 35 per cent in China amid rising fuel prices and strong EV launches from domestic carmakers.
“We think the internal combustion engine market will be alive in specific price segments,” BMW’s chief financial officer Walter Mertl said yesterday. “It will continue to do so up to the next decade. We are convinced of this.”
Despite its bullish outlook, BMW will accelerate the introduction of EV models based on its “Neue Klasse” software-controlled platform to reboot sales in China. The group will export vehicles made in China to other parts of Asia.
"We are firmly convinced that we will be very successful" in the Chinese EV market, Mertl added. BMW said it
BMW, which issued its second profit warning since June yesterday, said it would accelerate its restructuring

would accelerate its restructuring measures and phase out EV models based on older battery technology.
Operating profit fell 30 per cent to €1.6bn in the July to September quarter compared with a year earlier, slightly higher than analyst expectations of €1.5bn. Revenue fell 6 per cent to €30bn as sales in China tumbled by a quarter year on year.
“Current developments in our industry call for decisiveness and swift implementation,” said chief executive Milan Nedeljković. “We will therefore specifically intensify and accelerate structural measures.”
BMW expects a core operating margin of minus 0.5 per cent to 0.5 per cent compared with its earlier forecast of between 1 and 3 per cent. In the third quarter, its margin for the core automotive segment stood at 3.4 per cent.
BMW said it would accelerate a reduction in management functions. In late September, the carmaker outlined plans to cut more than 100 managers on top of reducing about 8,000 back-office jobs, or 5 per cent of its workforce. “There’s very high demand for the restructuring programme,” Nedeljković said. “This momentum should not get lost.”
BMW shares rose 5.5 per cent yesterday and are down 35 per cent this year.

伦敦债券交易商的基金在4年内从创业公司成长为梅菲尔主流机构,但现在正努力维持其投资组合
罗伯特·史密斯、尤安·希利、科斯塔斯·穆尔塞拉斯和奥尔特恩卡·阿利亚
经过4年显著回报和疯狂增长后,阿里尼资本管理公司(Arini Capital Management)的魅力创始人哈姆扎·莱姆苏格尔(Hamza Lemssouguer)今年决定,其6,400平方英尺的梅菲尔办公室(Mayfair office)已经不再适用。
这位36岁的交易商对濒临困境公司债务的高度集中且自称“反直觉”的投注,将阿里尼从一家规模10亿加元的对冲基金发展成为一家规模220亿加元的投资公司,涵盖公共和私人信贷。
为了满足其宏伟野心,阿里尼于6月收购了位于梅菲尔汉诺威广场附近的40,000平方英尺前伦敦私人资本巨头阿波罗全球管理(Apollo Global Management)的办公大楼,并同意租赁该建筑的8层及地下室。
然而,自从签署这笔豪华办公室交易以来,短短几个月内,阿里尼的冒险交易风格已经将其陷入公司债务市场中最风险最大的部分的残酷抛售中。
阿里尼的旗舰基金规模70亿加元,今年已累计亏损超过26%,其中部分最大头寸集中在濒临重组甚至破产边缘的公司债务上。由于银行对其借贷进行追缴(margin calls),阿里尼的基金今月刚刚募集了新资金,并开始大量抛售濒危公司的债券。
一位接近阿里尼的人士坚称,对于该公司来说,“一切如常”,该公司经常进出头寸,并正在将新资金用于多种用途。阿里尼还告诉投资者,它之前曾从“显著的市场价值波动”期间复苏过。
然而,许多竞争对手嗅到了血腥味。一位购买了阿里尼大量债务的对冲基金经理估计,该公司在过去一周的混乱交易中已出售了价值超过20亿加元的头寸。其他人还对阿里尼的头寸进行了空头押注。
竞争对手嗅到了血腥味
——一位估计阿里尼已出售了超过20亿加元面值的头寸
阿里尼的最大持仓,由于规模巨大而广为人知,进一步加剧了其投资组合的压力。一位债券基金经理表示,“所有人都在空头押注他的头寸”。
这场下跌标志着莱姆苏格尔的残酷报应,他曾经成功地克服了部分信贷市场老手对其年龄和大胆交易风格的质疑,建立了欧洲最成功的新对冲基金之一。
在晚20多岁时,莱姆苏格尔已经成为瑞士信贷最赚钱的交易员之一。2020年,他拒绝了肯·格里芬(Ken Griffin)的西塔对冲基金(Citadel hedge fund)的运营资金邀约,并于次年创立了阿里尼基金,并以他著名饲养的摩洛哥鹦鹉部落命名该公司。
阿里尼基金于2022年1月开始交易后不久,其所谓的“主基金”开始在欧洲违约率保持低位的情况下,通过切割和拆分参考公司债务的衍生品组合进行大规模投注。阿里尼经常持有iTraxx Crossover指数中最风险的“股权部分”(equity tranche),该指数跟踪75家欧洲垃圾级评级公司的信用违约互换(CDS),从而提高了其回报率,但也使其面临几起违约带来的严重损失风险。
冒险风格:哈姆扎·莱姆苏格尔对濒危英国零售商The Very Group发行的债券等具有高度集中且自称“反直觉”的投注情有独钟。
在公开交易的信用市场中,尽管这些市场被认为流动性较高,但阿里尼(Arini)的部分头寸规模——这些头寸通过其主要经纪行的杠杆放大——在压力测试时难以出售。
进一步复杂化的是,阿里尼已与其他债权人联合起来,就其最大头寸中的多项重组协议进行谈判。
这些群体的成员通常因掌握私密信息而被限制在公司债务中进出交易。出售可能通过“大人物信函”(big boy letters)实现,即承认卖方可能拥有比买方更多的信息,或者简单地将债务转让给同一债权人群体中的其他成员。
这些重组协议还经常要求债权人提供额外资金以获得有利结果,这意味着坚持原策略将要求阿里尼提供新的资金。
在某些情况下,阿里尼曾购买某些债券的大部分甚至全部份额,去年曾购买了英国长期困境的在线零售商The Very Group发行的全部£5.98 亿债券。
银行交易柜台近期寻找The Very Group债券的买家,但一位接近阿里尼的人士表示,该公司并未积极寻求再次出售该零售商的债务,因为它在8月份已经出售了部分债券。
然而,阿里尼在过去一周内已根据熟悉交易的人士的说法,出售了其他大额头寸,包括Blackstone支持的主题公园集团Merlin Entertainments以及美国科技公司Claritev和Sabre的头寸。
阿里尼还根据熟悉此事的人士的说法,出售了复杂的信用违约互换(CDS)市场头寸。
随着问题的加剧,阿里尼仍有意进一步筹集资金用于其旗舰对冲基金策略,该公司上个月初步筹集了15亿美元的新承诺,其中42.5亿美元已于10月初投入使用。
阿里尼与多个强大的中东主权财富基金建立了密切关系,阿里尼首席执行官Younes Belcadi曾担任卡塔尔投资管理局(Qatar Investment Authority)执行委员会成员。
“哈姆扎(Hamza)仍然拥有那里的追随者”,一位竞争对手的困境债务基金经理表示。
但随着交易员在匿名聊天室中交换关于“伦敦鸟”(London bird)困境的流言——许多交易员现在称其为“伦敦鸟”——阿里尼的竞争对手对其10月份的损失规模感到忧心忡忡——初步绩效估计将在未来几天与投资者分享。
阿里尼旗舰对冲基金的巨额利润——该基金在2023年增长27%,2024年增长21%,去年增长10%——使其在近年能够在其他策略(如私人信用和资产支持债务)上筹集数十亿加元的新资金。
自阿里尼上个月早些时候最后一次向投资者更新情况以来,阿波罗(Apollo)支持的电信公司Brightspeed——阿里尼在其风险较高的债务层中持有约200亿美元加元的头寸——已开始规划可能的第11章破产(Chapter 11 bankruptcy),根据《华尔街日报》的报道。
London debt trader's fund went from start-up to Mayfair mainstay in just 4 years but is now fighting to hold on to its bets

ROBERT SMITH, EUAN HEALY, COSTAS MOURSELAS AND ORTENCA ALIAJ LONDON
After four years of remarkable returns and rampant growth, Arini Capital Management's charismatic founder Hamza Lemssouguer decided this year that his hedge fund's 6,400-square-foot Mayfair office was no longer fit for purpose.
The 36-year-old trader's penchant for concentrated and self-described “contrarian” bets on the debt of struggling companies had propelled Arini from a \$1bn hedge fund start-up to a \$22bn investment firm diversified across both public and private credit.
In need of a new home to accommodate its grand ambitions, Arini swooped on the sprawling former London office of \$1tn private capital giant Apollo Global Management in June, agreeing to lease all eight floors and the basement of the 40,000-square-foot building a stone's throw from Mayfair's Hanover Square.
But in the few short months since striking the trophy office deal, the swashbuckling trading style that fuelled Lemssouguer's rise has ensnared his firm in a brutal sell-off in the riskiest reaches of corporate debt markets.
Arini's \$7bn flagship fund is now nursing losses for the year of more than 26 per cent with some of its largest positions in the debt of companies that are teetering on the brink of restructuring or even bankruptcy.
Inundated with margin calls from banks that lent money to increase its firepower, Arini raised new capital for its main fund last month and has begun dumping large blocks of bonds in struggling companies.
A person close to Arini insisted that it was “business as usual” for the firm, which regularly trades in and out of positions and is deploying the new money for several purposes.
The firm has also told investors that it has previously rebounded from “periods of significant mark-to-market volatility”.
However, many rival traders smell blood. One hedge fund manager, who has bought large blocks of debt from Arini, estimated that the firm had sold positions with a face value of more than \$2bn in chaotic trading over the past week.
Others have placed short bets against
Rival traders smell blood
\- one estimated that Arini had sold positions with a face value of over \$2bn
Arini's biggest holdings, which are widely known due to their scale, exacerbating the pressure on its portfolio.
"Everyone is shorting his positions," said one bond fund manager at a large asset manager.
The downturn marks a brutal reckoning for Lemssouguer, who had previously defied scepticism from some credit market veterans about his young age and audacious trading style to build one of Europe's most successful new hedge funds.
Having risen to become one of Credit Suisse's most profitable traders while still in his late twenties, Lemssouguer eschewed an offer to run money for Ken
Griffin's Citadel hedge fund in 2020 and established Arini the following year — christening his firm after the tribe of parrot that the Moroccan-born trader famously breeds.
Shortly after it began trading in January 2022, Arini's so-called master fund started placing big bets on defaults across Europe remaining low by slicing and dicing baskets of derivatives that reference corporate debt.
Arini has often held the riskiest “equity tranche” of the iTraxx Crossover index, which tracks the credit default swaps (CDS) of 75 junk-rated European companies, juicing its returns but putting it at risk of serious losses from just a few defaults.
Swashbuckling style: Hamza Lemssouguer has a penchant for concentrated and self-described ‘contrarian’ bets, including on a bond issued by struggling UK retailer The Very Group, below Chris J. Ratcliffe/Bloomberg
trade in publicly traded credit markets that are supposedly liquid, the size of many of its positions – boosted through leverage from the banks that serve as its prime brokers – makes them hard to sell in times of stress.
Complicating things further, Arini has banded together with other bondholders to negotiate restructuring deals in many of its biggest positions.
Members of these groups are often restricted from trading in and out of a company's debt as they are privy to private information from these talks.
Sales can be possible either through “big boy letters”, which acknowledge that the seller may have more information than the buyer, or by simply offloading the debt to another member of the bondholder group.
These restructuring deals also often require bondholders to lend more money to gain a favourable outcome, meaning that staying the course would require Arini to put up fresh capital.
In some instances, Arini had bought the majority or even all of certain bonds, having last year bought the entirety of a £598mn bond issued by long-struggling British online retailer The Very Group.
Bank trading desks have sought out buyers for The Very Group bonds in recent weeks, although the person close to Arini said the firm was not actively looking to sell further debt of the retailer after last selling a portion of the bonds in August.
However, Arini has traded out of other large holdings in the past week according to people familiar with the trades, including positions in Blackstone-backed theme park group Merlin Entertainments and US technology companies Claritev and Sabre.
Arini has also offloaded more complex positions in the CDS market, according to people familiar with the matter.
As its problems grow, Arini is still open to raising further money for its flagship hedge fund strategy, having initially secured \$1.5bn of new commitments last month, with \$425mn deployed at the start of October.
The firm has forged close relationships with several powerful Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds with Arini chief executive Younes Belcadi having previously served on the executive committee of Qatar Investment Authority.
“Hamza definitely still has a following there,” said one rival distressed debt fund manager.
But as traders swap gossip in anonymous chat rooms about the travails of a firm many of them now dub the "London bird", Arini's rivals are on tenterhooks over how severe its losses were in October – with initial performance estimates due to be shared with investors in the coming days.
Big profits at the firm's main hedge fund, which gained 27 per cent in 2023, 21 per cent in 2024 and 10 per cent last year, enabled Arini to raise billions of dollars of new capital in recent years across other strategies such as private credit and asset-backed debt.
Since Arini last updated its investors earlier in the month, Apollo-backed telecoms firm Brightspeed – where Arini holds a roughly \$2bn position concentrated in its riskier tiers of debt – has begun planning for a potential Chapter 11 bankruptcy, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal.
今年早些时候,Lemssouguer 成立了一个家族办公室,位于泽西的 LIO Limited,以监管其日益增长的个人财富,并与妻子共同设立一个慈善基金会,专注于“南美洲和非洲的教育、野生动物保护和当地社区赋能”。

Earlier this year, Lemssouguer established a family office, Jersey-based LIO Limited, to oversee his growing personal wealth while setting up a charitable foundation with his wife focused on “education, wildlife conservation and local community empowerment across South America and Africa”.

一些竞争对手认为,如果出现这种情况,公司的低级别债务可能会完全被抹账,从而加剧了对阿里尼(Arini)在该头寸上需要承受多大贴现的激烈猜测。

Some rival traders believe that the company's lower-ranking debt could be wiped out entirely in such a scenario, fuelling intense speculation around how severe a markdown Arini will have to take on the position.

赫雷乌斯(Heraeus)公司在为客户加工处理贵金属时,系统性地低估了贵金属的浓度,一项独立调查发现,这进一步加剧了这家世界上最大的铂金精炼商之一的危机。
一家律师事务所进行的调查将这一做法描述为“法律上极具争议”,德国集团赫雷乌斯被指控在超过十年的时间里,为全球450名客户的加工后产品降低了应支付的现金或精炼金属金额。
赫雷乌斯已拨出€170百万(1.7亿欧元)用于应对这一发现带来的潜在影响,这些发现是在更广泛的调查中浮出水面的,该调查涉及对该集团内部可能存在的不当行为的调查。
《金融时报》今年报道称,赫雷乌斯已拨出€460百万用于应对指控其在加工过程中非法扣留设备内残留金属的指控,并且检方正在调查16名现任和前任赫雷乌斯员工,涉嫌欺诈和贪污。
在达成和解后,赫雷乌斯仍保留了€300百万的预提,其中包括2025年财报中因CMS Hasche Sigle公司新调查发现而计提的€170百万。
CMS(未回应置评请求)在调查内部举报人对其他不规范行为的投诉时,发现了这些计价问题。
去年6月,CMS告诉该公司管理层,客户合同缺乏透明度是“法律上极具争议”,根据《金融时报》获取的文件。
赫雷乌斯首席执行官弗兰克·施蒂茨(Frank Stietz)表示:“外部调查已经完成,其发现已移交给检方。”
据施蒂茨称,低估贵金属含量的做法始于2015,一直到去年结束,扣减金额通常低于1%。这些扣减是为了防范客户测试结果与赫雷乌斯自身测量结果之间的差异,后者决定了应支付的最终金额。
赫雷乌斯计划与受影响的450名客户(占该业务期间客户总数的一半以下)进行个别和解。根据公司的说法,这些客户的潜在赔偿金额从每年数千欧元到数百万欧元(累积十年)不等。
施蒂茨表示:“在我们的一些客户合同中,扣减并不足够透明,而且扣减方式在科学上难以解释。”
他补充道:“我们主动与客户沟通,讨论迄今为止都非常富有建设性。我们没有失去任何客户关系。”
在2015年前,赫雷乌斯员工依据主观判断,在广泛的Excel电子表格中手动降低贵金属含量的测试结果,没有科学依据或自动化控制,据三名知情人士透露。
当这一做法在内部于2015左右被发现后,赫雷乌斯将其替换为一种基于统计的系统,称为“风险缓解”,该系统被外部律师事务所Clifford Chance认为具有法律可行性,据知情人士称。
新系统为每个客户和金属设定了预定义的容差范围。扣减对于少数几个主要客户是自动化的,但对于其他客户仍然是手动应用的。
CMS早前发现,赫雷乌斯的前任管理层“为年”存在生产残留物非法处理的潜在问题,同时培育了一种“沉默文化”。
前任首席执行官扬·林内特(Jan Rinnert)在赫雷奥斯(Heraeus)公司于去年向当局披露此事前数天离职,并据知情人士透露,他已成为当前刑事调查中的嫌疑人之一。林内特未回应置评请求。
问题在施蒂茨(Stietz)上任初期仍然存在。施蒂茨表示:“我们正在积极加强合规文化,包括从最高层树立正确的风气。”

FLORIAN MÜLLER — FRANKFURT
Heraeus systematically understated the concentration of precious metals in materials it processed for customers, an independent investigation has found, widening a crisis at one of the world's biggest platinum refiners.
In a practice described by the law firm conducting the probe as “legally highly questionable”, the German group is alleged to have lowered its test results for 450 customers worldwide over more than a decade, reducing the cash or refined metal due to them after processing.
Heraeus has set aside €170mn to cover the potential fallout from the findings, which emerged during a wider investigation into alleged misconduct at the group.
The FT reported this year that the company had set aside €460mn over allegations it had unlawfully retained metal left in its equipment during processing, and that prosecutors were investigating 16 current and former Heraeus employees on suspicion of fraud and embezzlement.
Following settlements, Heraeus still has provisions of €300mn, including the €170mn booked in its 2025 accounts for the findings of the new investigation by CMS Hasche Sigle.
CMS, which did not respond to a request for comment, uncovered the billing issues while investigating whistleblower complaints about the other irregularities at Heraeus.
In June last year it told the company's management that the lack of contractual transparency for customers was "legally highly questionable", according to documents seen by the FT.
"The external investigation has been completed and its findings were handed over to prosecutors," said Heraeus chief executive Frank Stietz.
The practice of understating precious metals content ran from 2015 until the end of last year, with deductions generally below 1 per cent, according to Stietz. They were intended as a safeguard against variations between customers' test results and Heraeus' own measurements, which determined the final value owed.
Heraeus plans to negotiate individual settlements. Potential compensation for the 450 affected customers, representing fewer than half of the division's clients during the period, ranges from a few thousand euros a year for some to millions accumulated over a decade for others, according to the company.
"The deductions were not sufficiently transparent in some of our customer contracts," Stietz said, adding that they also "varied in ways that are difficult to justify scientifically".
"We are proactively approaching our customers, and discussions have so far been constructive," he added. "We have not lost any customer relationships."
Before 2015, Heraeus employees manually reduced the precious metal content in test results based on subjective judgments recorded in extensive Excel spreadsheets, without scientific justification or automated controls, according to three people familiar with the matter.
After that practice was uncovered internally around 2015, Heraeus replaced it with a statistically based system known as “Risk Mitigation” that was considered legally defensible by external lawyers from Clifford Chance, according to the people.

Clifford Chance declined to comment.
The new system used predefined tolerance ranges for individual customers and metals. Deductions were automated for a handful of major customers but continued to be applied manually for other clients.
CMS had earlier found that Heraeus's former management had “perpetuated” the potential illicit handling of production leftovers for years while fostering a “culture of silence”.
Former chief executive Jan Rinnert left the company days before Heraeus flagged the matter to authorities last year and is among the suspects in the ongoing criminal probe, according to people familiar with the matter. Rinnert did not respond to a request for comment.
The shortcomings continued into the first months of Stietz's tenure. “We are working intensively to strengthen our compliance culture, including setting the tone from the top,” Stietz said.

风险投资机构优先布局硅谷 打击英国成为AI产业基地的野心
蒂姆·布拉德肖(Tim Bradshaw)和伊凡·利文斯顿(Ivan Levinson)
知名科技投资机构顺风资本(Sequoia Capital)宣布关闭其欧洲总部——伦敦分部,这对英国试图成为蓬勃发展的AI产业重要基地的野心构成重大挫折。
顺风资本在社交媒体上于昨日发布公告,宣布这一决定,此举与其此前从中国和印度撤出的策略一致。
该风险投资机构表示:“我们不再认为在欧洲设立本地分部有必要。” 顺风资本称,“我们相信欧洲仍将涌现杰出创业者和公司,我们能够从硅谷总部继续提供世界一流的支持。”
国际化退出标志着这家以对苹果、谷歌、OpenAI和SpaceX等公司的成功投资而闻名的机构,在前合伙人罗尔夫·博塔(Roelof Botha)去年离职后的动荡时期再度面临变局。经过过去20年的发展,顺风资本在全球开设了中国、印度和欧洲分部,现在实际上已从所有海外市场撤出,重新聚焦硅谷。该公司于2020年在疫情期间科技繁荣期间开设了伦敦分部。
其原中国和印度分部现已独立运营,分别为香港山(HongShan)和峰十五(Peak XV Partners)。
顺风资本从欧洲撤出的举动,与其硅谷邻居安达韦资本(Andreessen Horowitz)去年关闭伦敦分部的策略一致。安达韦资本在成立不到两年后便关闭了伦敦分部。顺风资本表示,将继续从其旧金山总部对欧洲初创企业进行投资。
然而,这些撤出举动对英国试图在迅速增长的AI产业中占据重要地位的野心造成重大打击。该产业目前由美国和中国主导。
顺风资本在伦敦的四名合伙人被给予了搬迁至美国的选择,以继续留在公司。其中三人选择不搬迁,包括全球早期投资业务的联合负责人卢西安娜·利桑德鲁(Luciana Lixandru)。
她在社交媒体上表示:“在被给予搬迁至旧金山的机会时,我选择留在这里,专注于这个充满活力但不完美的生态系统。”
另一位欧洲合伙人马特·米勒(Matt Miller)已于去年离开顺风资本,并成立了自己的基金。
顺风资本在2020年开设伦敦分部时,正值美国投资公司寻找海外新机遇的时期。
然而,欧洲科技初创企业在筹集资金能力上仍远不及美国同行,尤其是在本地投资者的支持方面。尽管美国和中国主导了AI产业,但伦敦的AI初创企业如ElevenLabs、Ineffable Intelligence和Isomorphic Labs仍从风险投资增加中受益。
顺风资本在欧洲的投资包括瑞典“买即付”先锋Klarna、德国金融科技Trade Republic、法国会计初创企业Pennylane以及德国国防科技公司Stark。
VC firm prioritises Silicon Valley in setback to UK's ambition to be base for AI
TIM BRADSHAW AND IVAN LEVINGSTON
Prominent technology investor Sequoia Capital is closing its European headquarters in London in a setback to the UK's ambitions to become a significant base for the booming AI industry.
Sequoia announced the closure, which follows a similar retreat from China and India, in a social media post yesterday.
"We simply don't see the need for a local presence" in Europe, the venture capital firm said. “We believe that Europe will continue to produce outlier founders and companies, and that we can continue to provide world-class support from our home base in the Bay Area.”
The international retreat marks another period of upheaval at a firm best known for lucrative bets on Apple, Google, OpenAI and SpaceX, after the tumultuous departure of former managing partner Roelof Botha a year ago.
After opening outposts in China, India and Europe over the past two decades, Sequoia has now in effect exited all overseas markets to refocus on Silicon Valley. It opened its UK office in 2020 during the pandemic-era tech boom.
Its former Chinese and Indian divisions now operate independently as HongShan and Peak XV Partners, respectively.
Sequoia's retreat from Europe follows a similar move by its Silicon Valley neighbour Andreessen Horowitz, which closed its London office last year after less than two years. Sequoia said it would continue to invest in European start-ups from its San Francisco office.
Nevertheless, the departures are a blow to Britain's ambitions to position itself prominently in the rapidly growing AI industry, which is dominated by the US and China.
Sequoia's four London-based partners were given the option to relocate to the
US to stay with the firm. Three of the four opted not to move, including Luciana Lixandru, who co-led Sequoia's early-stage investment business globally.
They will continue working with existing portfolio groups but will not make new investments with Sequoia.
"When given the opportunity to move to San Francisco, I chose to stay here and focus on this wonderful, imperfect ecosystem," Lixandru said in a social media post.
Another Sequoia partner in Europe, Matt Miller, had already left the firm and launched his own fund last year.
Sequoia opened its office in London amid a broader push by US investment companies looking for new opportunities abroad.
However, European technology start-ups still lag far behind their US counterparts in terms of their ability to raise capital, especially from local investors.
Despite the dominance of the US and China, London-based AI start-ups such as ElevenLabs, Ineffable Intelligence and Isomorphic Labs have still benefited from an increase in venture funding.
Sequoia's investments in Europe have included Swedish buy-now, pay-later pioneer Klarna, German fintech Trade Republic, French accounting start-up Pennylane and German defence tech firm Stark.

莱斯·阿尔-哈拉夫(Laith Al-Khalaf) —— 伦敦
拉曼·巴蒂亚(Raman Bhatia)正准备卸任星灵银行(Starling Bank)首席执行官一职,任期仅两年,而这家英国数字银行正面临增长放缓的困境。
据三名知情人士透露,巴蒂亚已向银行董事会私下表示,不再想继续担任该金融科技公司的领导人。董事会已加快了接班计划,这些知情人士补充道。巴蒂亚于2024年3月被任命为首席执行官,其卸任将发生在星灵银行发展的关键时刻,该银行正在应对增长减缓和市值低迷的问题。
巴蒂亚接任后,银行的创始人兼前首席执行官安妮·博登(Anne Boden)曾因银行衰退的市值增长与投资者发生冲突。
博登,一名前爱尔兰联合银行(Allied Irish Bank)高管,于2014年创立星灵银行,作为一批纯数字化挑战性银行之一。在十年时间里,星灵银行未能实现与竞争对手如蒙佐(Monzo)和雷沃路特(Revolut)那样的市值增长,博登最终卸任。
上个月,媒体曝光博登已出售其最后一份股份,估值为£1.7亿。据《金融时报》此前报道,2021年星灵银行曾计划进行二级股权出售,估值为£4亿。
星灵银行的收入在截至今年3月的财年内下滑了6%,至£887百万,而税前利润则下降了3%,至£217百万,主要原因是英国央行基准利率下降导致利息收入减少。
巴蒂亚从能源公司Ovo加入星灵银行,此前曾领导HSBC英国和欧洲零售银行及财富管理业务的数字银行部门。
星灵银行长期受制于英国金融行为监管局(FCA)2021年施加的限制,因其金融犯罪控制不力而被禁止为高风险客户开设新账户。三年后,FCA指控该银行“控制极其松懈”,并处以£29百万的罚款。
巴蒂亚在今年5月的全年业绩发布会上表示,星灵银行正在逐步解决这些限制。
LAITH AL-KHALAF — LONDON
Raman Bhatia is preparing to stand down from his role as chief executive of Starling Bank after just two years in the role as the UK digital bank struggles with slowing growth.
Bhatia has privately told the group's board that he no longer wants to run the fintech, according to three people familiar with the matter.
The board had stepped up succession planning in response, the people added. The exit of Bhatia, who was named chief executive in March 2024, would come at a pivotal time for Starling, which has been grappling with weakening growth and a sluggish valuation.
Bhatia took up the role after the bank's founder and former chief executive Anne Boden clashed with investors over its ailing valuation growth.
Boden, a former Allied Irish Bank executive, founded Starling in 2014 as one of a crop of digital-only challenger banks. After a decade in which Starling had struggled to deliver the kind of valuation growth achieved by rivals such as Monzo and Revolut, Boden stepped down.
Last month it emerged that Boden had sold the last of her stake at a valuation of £1.7bn. The neobank was planning for a secondary share sale at a valuation of £4bn last year, the FT previously reported.
Starling's revenues slid 6 per cent to £887mn in the year to March, while pretax profits dropped 3 per cent to £217mn as lower Bank of England base rates weighed on interest income.
Bhatia joined Starling from the energy company Ovo and had previously led the digital bank for HSBC's retail banking and wealth management business in the UK and Europe.
Starling has been hamstrung by restrictions placed on it in 2021 by the Financial Conduct Authority due to its poor financial-crime controls. These curbs prevented Starling from opening new accounts for high-risk customers. Three years later the FCA accused the bank of operating with “shockingly lax” controls and fined it £29mn.
Bhatia said at the company's full-year results in May that Starling was in the process of exiting these restrictions.

Starling Bank declined to comment.
一位中国山东省的农民使用无人机喷洒小麦农药。软银背书的XAG公司希望每位农民都能拥有自己的机器人,将其无人驾驶农业喷洒系统作为应对缩减劳动力和升温的解决方案。
XAG是全球第二大农业无人机制造商(仅次于中国同行大疆),已推出一系列配备充电站的无人机,能够自动清洁、充电、加油并规划喷洒车辆的行驶路线。
XAG高级副总裁贡津(Justin Gong)告诉《金融时报》,劳动力短缺和老龄化人口是中国农场面临的最大问题,但许多农场无法依赖忙碌的无人机飞行员来喷洒田地。
气候变化导致极端天气事件增多,进一步加剧了对自动化智能农场的需求,他补充道。
“未来每位农民都将拥有自己的机器人”,他说,“这将是一场革命,因为我们认为飞行员是无人机行业目前最大的阻力。”
截至去年年底,中国颁发了415,500张无人机操作员执照,较前一年增长了68%。尽管飞行员人数在增加,但国家媒体报道称,高需求导致某些行业面临短缺。
贡津表示,飞行员被激励尽快喷洒农田,然后前往下一个农场。许多飞行员也不愿意前往偏远地区。
农业自动化也受到劳动力迅速缩减的推动。贡津说:“当[AI公司]讨论估值或市场规模时,他们讨论的是能替代多少人。我们是另一面:未来五年你将失去多少人——这就是市场规模。”
联合国预测,中国的劳动年龄人口,在2010年代达到10亿峰值后,到本世纪末可能缩减近两成。长期以来,大量农村移民涌入城市工厂,使农场成为人口危机的前沿阵地。
贡津估计,每年有12mn人从农村迁往城市,这意味着中国在未来三年内需要3mn架无人机。为了覆盖所有可耕地,该国需要多达12mn架无人机,他表示。
全球可持续农业峰会(Global Summit on Sustainable Agriculture)秘书长孙西(Sun Xi)表示,农业无人机在中国的使用“非常成熟”,并得到政府支持,但资金和技术有限的小农场将难以适应。
“说到底,你必须看成本”,他说,补充称,农民只有在新技术比传统方法更便宜时才会采用。
XAG向包括美国、巴西以及多个非洲和东南亚国家在内的近70个国家的客户销售其无人机、车辆和农场传感器。
研究机构无人机行业洞察(Drone Industry Insights)首席执行官凯·瓦克维茨(Kay Wackwitz)表示,尽管大疆(DJI)在农业无人机市场份额迅速增长,但XAG的易于使用系统使其在技术能力较弱的农民中占据优势。
“降低进入门槛在这个行业中非常重要”,他说,“我认为,XAG在这一点上做得非常出色。”
这家公司成立于2007年,最初是一家消费者爱好品牌,正准备在香港上市。根据Caplight的估计,XAG在2023年的一轮融资中估值约为15亿加元(15亿美元),软银持有其12.9%的股份。
贡津表示,中国以外的农场在未来十年内可能需要5mn到10mn架无人机来应对紧迫的劳动力短缺。
总体而言,气候变化的威胁已经使甚至最传统的农民对新技术如无人机的态度变得柔软,他说。
“技术、天气和劳动力短缺,这些因素已经变得非常复杂……对农民来说压力很大。”

A SoftBank-backed agricultural drone start-up wants every farmer to “have their own robot” as it touts its pilotless crop sprayers as the answer to a dwindling workforce and rising temperatures.
XAG, the world's second-largest agricultural drone maker by revenue behind Chinese compatriot DJI, has released a series of drones with docking stations that autonomously clean, recharge, refill and plan the spraying routes of vehicles.
Justin Gong, senior vice-president of XAG, told the FT that labour shortages and an ageing workforce were the biggest issues facing Chinese farms, but many of them could not rely on time-pressed drone pilots to spray fields.
The advent of more extreme weather caused by climate change has sharpened the need for automated smart farms, he added.
“Every farmer in the future will have their own robot,” he said. “It’s going to be revolutionary because we think pilots are the biggest resistance to the drone industry right now.”
By the end of last year, China had issued 415,500 drone operator licences, up 68 per cent from the year before. While the number of pilots is growing, state media have reported that high demand has left some sectors grappling with shortages.
Pilots were incentivised to spray as quickly as possible before moving on to the next farm, said Gong. Many were also reluctant to travel to remote areas.
Automation in farming is also being driven by rapid labour force shrinkage. "When [AI companies] talk about valuation or market scale, they talk about how many people you can replace," said Gong. "We are the other side: how many people you will lose in the next five years — that is the market size."
The UN has forecast that China's working-age population, which peaked at 1bn in the 2010s, could shrink by nearly two-thirds by the end of the century. A decades-long rush of rural migrants to factories in cities has put farms at the sharp end of the demographic crisis.
Gong estimated 12mn people moved from rural to urban areas each year, which meant China would need 3mn drones in the next three years. To cover all arable land, the country would need as many as 12mn drones, he said.
Sun Xi, secretary-general of the Global Summit on Sustainable Agriculture, an industry group, said agricultural drone usage was “very mature” in China and had government support, but smaller farms with limited capital and technical knowhow would struggle to adapt.
"In the end you have to look at costs," he said, adding that farmers would only adopt technology if it was cheaper than traditional methods.
XAG sells its drones, vehicles and farm sensors to customers in nearly 70 countries including the US, Brazil and a number of African and south-east Asian nations.
Kay Wackwitz, chief executive of research group Drone Industry Insights, said although DJI had grown its share of the agricultural drone market rapidly, XAG's easy-to-use systems gave them an edge with less tech-savvy farmers.
“Lowering the entry barrier is very, very important in this sector,” he said. “That, I think, is what XAG understood masterfully.”
The company, founded in 2007 as a consumer hobby brand, is preparing to list in Hong Kong. It was valued at about \$1.5bn in a 2023 funding round, according to an estimate from Caplight. SoftBank holds a 12.9 per cent stake.
Gong said farms outside China could require 5mn to 10mn drones in the next decade to meet pressing labour crunches.
Overall, the threat of climate change had softened the attitudes of even the most traditional farmers to new technologies such as drones, he said.
“Technology plus weather plus labour shortage, it’s all become very complex . . . to the farmers and they have a lot of pressure.”

欧洲稀土精炼商索尔维达(Solvay)与一家澳大利亚公司签署协议,将允许其增加非中国供应链的关键磁体生产原料,称这一举措是“全球供应链多元化的重要一步”。
比利时化学集团索尔维昨日表示,已与维里迪斯矿业(Viridis Mining and Minerals)签署长期协议,后者将为其位于法国拉罗谢尔(La Rochelle)的稀土作业提供原料,来自巴西即将投产的矿山。预计2028年起向索尔维发货。
随着北京和华盛顿在1月后进一步延长贸易停火协议的谈判,非中国稀土供应的竞争可能进一步加剧。五角大楼表示,将于1月起停止从中国采购磁体及其他关键部件。
索尔维位于拉罗谢尔的工厂是中国以外规模最大的稀土分离和精炼设施之一。其产品用于电动汽车、可再生能源、先进电子、国防和医疗应用所需的永磁体。
索尔维首席执行官菲利普·凯伦(Philippe Kehren)表示,“客户和政策制定者不仅在欧洲,也在美国、日本等地都在寻找新的稀土来源,这些稀土对于电气化和国防用途至关重要。”
“这是朝着这一多元化目标迈出的明确一步。”他说。中国因其矿产资源和对精炼及磁体生产的投资,在全球稀土开采和精炼领域占据主导地位。
索尔维表示,该协议包含“某些价格下限”,以支持维里迪斯在稀土价格下跌时的运营。美国政府为加州公司MP Materials和澳大利亚生产商林纳斯公司(Lynas Corp)设定了价格下限,但这种做法在供应协议中并不常见。
凯伦表示,与维里迪斯的合作将有助于拉罗谢尔工厂长期发展,该工厂已运营超过75年,但仅去年增加了一条生产线,用于欧洲稀土磁体制造。今年,索尔维还扩大了重稀土处理能力,投资额可达€20。
维里迪斯提供的原料包括轻稀土镨钕(neodymium和praseodymium)以及重稀土铽(dysprosium)和铽(terbium)。
维里迪斯首席执行官拉法埃尔·莫雷诺(Rafael Moreno)表示,公司一直在与韩国、日本、欧洲和美国等多方就其巴西科洛苏斯矿(Colossus mine)的稀土进行深入讨论。
“我们的巴西设施已接待了许多不同的政府团体。”他说,“目前全球只有三个非中国稀土矿山在生产。”
莫雷诺表示,与索尔维的合作也将帮助维里迪斯筹集资金用于开发项目。他表示,公司正与欧洲银行洽谈一揽子融资方案,预计今年将完成。
“欧盟也非常积极地支持我们,并且他们还将这一支持传递给了许多欧洲银行。”他说。

European rare earths refiner Solvay has struck a deal with an Australian company that will allow it to increase supplies for crucial magnet production outside China, calling it an “important step” in diversifying global supply chains.
The Belgian chemicals group said yesterday it had signed a long-term agreement with Viridis Mining and Minerals, which will supply its rare earths operations in La Rochelle, France, from an upcoming Brazilian mine. Shipments to Solvay are expected to start in 2028.
Competition for non-Chinese rare earths supply could rise further as Beijing and Washington negotiate a further extension of a trade truce beyond January. The Pentagon has said it will stop buying magnets and other critical parts sourced from China in January.
Solvay's plant at La Rochelle is one of the largest rare earth separation and purification facilities outside China. Its products go into the permanent magnets needed for electric vehicles, renewable energy, advanced electronics and defence and medical applications.
Philippe Kehren, chief executive of Solvay, said that “customers and policymakers, not only in Europe, also in the US, in Japan” are pushing to find new sources of rare earths crucial for electrification and defence uses.
“This is clearly an important step towards this diversification,” he said. China controls mining and refining globally because of its mineral resources and investment in refining and magnet production.
The deal includes “certain price floors”, Solvay said, which would support Viridis if rare earths prices fell. The US government put in place price floors for Californian company MP Materials and Australian producer Lynas Corp, although this is not common in supply agreements.
Kehren said the Viridis deal would help the long-term future of its site in La Rochelle, which has been in production for more than 75 years but only last year added a production line that will contribute to European rare earths magnet manufacturing.
It also expanded heavy rare earths processing this year with a further investment of up to €20mn. The feedstock to come from Viridis includes neodymium and praseodymium, so-called light rare earths, and heavy rare earths dysprosium and terbium.
Rafael Moreno, chief executive of Viridis, said the company had been “in deep discussions with the Koreans, the Japanese, Europe, the US” about rare earths from its Colossus mine in Brazil.
“We’ve had a lot of different government groups come through our facility in Brazil,” he said. “There’s not that many good rare earth mining projects out there. There’s only really three non-Chinese [producing mines] at the moment.”
Moreno said the deal with Solvay would also help to secure financing for the development of Viridis. He said the company was in talks with European banks about a funding package that should be finalised this year.
"The European Union has also been quite instrumental in looking to support us," he said. "And we're lucky that they have also cascaded that support to a lot of the European banks."

中东冲突背景下寻求新能源来源
维尔蒂·拉特克利夫 —— 伦敦
卡塔尔国有能源公司(QatarEnergy)正在努力成为2020年代早期全球最大的美国液化天然气(LNG)买家之一,随着中东战争限制了该湾区国家的出口,并迫使其寻找新的供应来源。
卡塔尔能源公司(QatarEnergy)上个月末签署了两份协议,将其可供出售给国际客户的美国LNG年供应量增加至700万吨(700万美元 tonnes)。加上其在得克萨斯州Golden Pass项目中的70%股份,QatarEnergy预计到2033年将从美国控制2.37亿吨 / 年的LNG供应量,根据能源咨询公司伍德麦肯兹(Wood Mackenzie)的研究,这将使其成为美国最大的LNG买家。
这些LNG将不会流向卡塔尔本土,因为卡塔尔生产天然气的成本仍然是世界上最低的之一。相反,这些LNG将被重新销售并运往依赖进口液化气以生产电力和工业燃料的国家,从而避开霍尔木兹海峡的瓶颈。
这一转变凸显了该湾区国家出口(曾是全球最大的LNG供应国)因美国-以色列与伊朗战争而受到的影响程度。
“他们全球化投资组合的扩张是为了应对过度依赖卡塔尔本土供应系统的认知,通过在中东以外建立一个规模可观的供应组合来缓解这一问题”,能源和运输经纪公司Poten & Partners全球业务情报负责人杰森·费尔(Jason Feer)表示。他补充称,这将帮助该集团重建其作为可靠供应商的声誉,该供应商在战争前从未错过任何一批运输。他还表示,公司可能还会在美国签署两到三份更多协议,并可能在其他地区签署协议。
由于伊朗对航运的袭击,通过霍尔木兹海峡(卡塔尔通往湾区外客户的唯一通道)的船只数量急剧减少,今年卡塔尔LNG出口量已降至往年水平的三分之一以下。
中东地区的LNG出口受到的影响比石油更大,因为没有管道将出口设施与湾区外的设施相连。此外,LNG的转运比石油更为困难,限制了通过霍尔木兹海峡运输的液化气量。
战争爆发后不久,卡塔尔能源公司(QatarEnergy)停止了LNG生产并对受影响的买家宣布强制履约(force majeure)。其主要买家(主要在亚洲)被迫寻找替代供应来源。
卡塔尔能源公司首席执行官萨阿德·阿尔-卡比(Saad al-Kaabi)在上周的签约仪式上表示,最新的供应协议“加强了我们为全球客户服务的能力”。新签署的合同将为QatarEnergy提供2030年和2031年的美国LNG供应,但对当前中东供应中断的客户帮助有限。然而,这些协议将为未来卡塔尔出口可能面临的中断提供缓冲,并帮助其在2033年成为全球最大的美国LNG买家。
卡塔尔能源公司持有Golden Pass项目(得克萨斯州)的70%股份($70% stake)。

VERITY RATCLIFFE — LONDON
Qatar's state-owned energy company is on track to become the world's biggest buyer of US liquefied natural gas by early next decade as war in the Middle East curtails the Gulf nation's exports and pushes it to hunt for new sources of supply.
QatarEnergy signed two agreements late last month that increase the amount of US LNG it will have available to sell to its international customers by 7mn tonnes a year.
Combined with its share of production from the Golden Pass project in Texas, in which it holds a 70 per cent stake, QatarEnergy is on track to control 23.7mn tonnes per year from the US by 2033, making it the biggest US LNG buyer according to research firm Wood Mackenzie.
None of the LNG will end up in Qatar, where the cost of producing gas remains among the cheapest in the world. Instead, it will be resold and shipped to countries that buy liquefied gas from abroad to produce electricity and fuel industry, avoiding the Strait of Hormuz chokepoint.
The shift highlights the extent to which exports from the Gulf nation, once the world's biggest supplier of LNG, have been affected by the US-Israeli war with Iran.
"The expansion of their global portfolio is part of an effort to address the perception that they were overly dependent on their system in Qatar, by building a sizeable supply portfolio outside of the Middle East," said Jason Feer, global head of business intelligence at energy and shipping broker Poten & Partners.
This will help the group rebuild its reputation as a reliable supplier that before the war had never missed a shipment, he said, adding the company was likely to do two or three more deals in the US and possibly others elsewhere. Qatari LNG exports have fallen to less than a third of their usual level this year as Iranian attacks on shipping have sharply reduced the number of carriers passing through the strait – Qatar's only route to customers outside the Gulf.
Shipments of LNG from the Middle East have been more affected than oil as there are no pipelines connecting export plants to ones outside the Gulf. It is also harder to transfer LNG than oil between ships, limiting the amount of liquefied gas that can be shuttled through the strait.

of war at the end of February. Its main buyers – mostly in Asia – were left hunting around for alternative supplies.
The latest supply deals “strengthen our ability to serve customers across the globe”, said QatarEnergy chief executive Saad al-Kaabi at a signing ceremony last week.
The newly signed contracts will give QatarEnergy access to US LNG from 2030 and 2031 and will therefore do little to help its customers facing current supply disruptions in the Middle East. However, it could provide a buffer against potential disruption to Qatari exports in the future.

有人认为“他们过度依赖卡塔尔自身系统”。
伍德麦肯兹表示:“能够将地理多元化的供应组合与自身生产结合,将为卡塔尔能源的客户群提供信心。”
卡塔尔在2023年被美国超越,成为全球最大LNG供应商,美国在出口能力上进行了大规模投资。该海湾国家此后面临挑战,即在曾经主导的市场中维持其影响力。

卡塔尔能源尝试通过扩大贸易业务来应对这一挑战。2020年卡塔尔能源推出贸易桌,去年其贸易量超过24百万吨,伍德麦肯兹数据显示。
从曾经超越它的国家采购LNG,也有助于卡塔尔实现第二大目标,即建立全球天然气业务。

There was a perception ‘they were overly dependent on their system in Qatar’
"The ability to market a geographically diverse supply portfolio alongside its own production will provide reassurance to QatarEnergy's customer base," said Wood Mackenzie.
Qatar was overtaken as the world's biggest LNG supplier in 2023 by the US, which has made massive investments in export capacity. The Gulf nation has since faced the challenge of maintaining its influence in a market that it once dominated.

One way it has sought to do so is by expanding its trading business. In 2020 QatarEnergy launched a trading desk, and last year it traded more than 20mn tonnes, according to Wood Mackenzie.
Buying LNG from the nation that usurped it also helps Qatar achieve its second main objective, which is to build a global gas business, said Feer.

China has stepped up its defence of its stock market as Beijing tries to bolster flagging investor sentiment towards the technology sector with funds associated with its so-called “national team” of state-backed banks experiencing large inflows.
Net inflows into nine exchange traded funds commonly used by Beijing to support the market hit \$11.5bn on Tuesday, the second-highest daily amount on record, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
An unusually large proportion of this latest round of state-backed buying was of ETFs tracking China's two main tech indices, Shanghai's Star 50 index and Shenzhen's ChiNext.
The two tech indices jumped 9.9 per cent and 6.4 per cent, respectively, yesterday while the broad benchmark CSI 300 gained 2.3 per cent.
On Tuesday, inflows into ChinaAMC's Star 50 ETF hit \$1.7bn, the second highest on record after July's support measures. Those for E Fund's ChiNext ETF hit \$1.4bn, its third-largest on record.
“Clearly there is a regime shift from the previous state-backed ETF buying,” said Song Zhe, a senior investment specialist at BNP Paribas Asset Management. “In the past, the majority of the inflow would be in the CSI 300.”
中国股市,特别是科技相关子板块,自7月以来遭遇了沉重的抛售压力。
沪深300今年下跌超过11%,而科创50指数(曾在高点今年上涨超过60%)也已转为赤字。华尔街的标普500和纳斯达克100指数均上涨了双位数。
年初国家队的大规模抛售压低了指数,令投资者困惑。然而,国家队在7月向科创50指数注入资金,购买近$9亿加元股票,试图在全球记忆股大跌后,提振市场情绪,以支持CXMT在上海的巨型IPO。
“国家队认为创业板和科创板至关重要,代表中国未来”,宋哲表示。
昨日的价格动作波及部分在香港上市的中国AI实验室,Z.AI和MiniMax分别上涨9.6%和7.5%。
《金融时报》报道称,新股发行和股票增发在内地市场已被暂停,作为政府支持市场估值的一部分。沪深300今年下跌超过50%(原文应为11%,但根据上下文应补充500百万或其他相关数据,但原文未明确提及,故保留原文逻辑)。

China's stock market, and in particular its tech-related sub-indices, has suffered heavy selling pressure since July.
The CSI 300 is down more than 11 per cent this year and the Star 50 – which at its peak was up more than 60 per cent for the year – is also in the red.
Wall Street's S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 benchmarks are both up double digits.
Heavy selling by China's national team at the start of the year weighed on the index and mystified investors convinced that Beijing was keen to promote a steadily rising stock market.
However, the national team pumped money into the Star 50 index in July, buying close to \$9bn of equities, in an attempt to boost market sentiment ahead of CXMT's blockbuster Shanghai initial public offering – after a global rout in memory stocks spread to China.
"The national team thinks ChiNext and Star Board are crucial and represent the future of China," Song said.
The price action yesterday spilled over into some of the Chinese AI labs listed in Hong Kong, with Z.AI and MiniMax jumping 9.6 per cent and 7.5 per cent, respectively.
The FT reported on Tuesday that new listings and share offerings had been suspended in mainland markets as part of the government's efforts to support market valuations.

两年前,在哥伦比亚城市卡利,全球各国政府达成协议,计划从大型企业筹集数十亿加元用于环境保护。联合国将卡利基金的创立(2024年)誉为“具有全球重要意义的历史性决定”,但迄今为止,基金仅收到$10,000的捐款。这一计划是否注定失败,还能否实现?
两年前在哥伦比亚城市卡利,全球政府同意一项计划,通过征集大型企业资金来保护环境。这些资金将来自于使用“数字序列信息”(即研究人员上传至免费公共数据库的遗传数据)的行业,如制药和化妆品行业。理念是,这些企业应当公平分担保护自然界的成本,因为它们从中获取了经济利益。
该协议于2024,在联合国生物多样性大会上签署,规定大型公司应当“应当”每年缴纳其年收入的0.1%或利润的1%。联合国后续估计,如果所有相关企业都遵守这一标准,基金每年可筹集$3.65亿加元。基金成立后不久便对外开放,但截至目前,仅收到来自少数较小企业的五笔捐款,总金额仅为$10,588。
伦敦政治经济学院法律学教授西瓦·塔姆比塞蒂(Siva Thambisetty)表示,卡利基金“濒临生死关头”。他指出:“这不仅仅是基金的问题,而是关系到我们是否能够兑现全球承诺。”
迄今为止,没有一家全球性大型企业向基金缴纳资金。环保组织指控这些企业“生物盗窃”,即从以自然资源丰富的发展中国家获取遗传资源,却拒绝分享利益。
然而,跨国企业有动力支持这一倡议,德国制药和生物科技集团拜耳(Bayer)政策工作负责人蒂尔·沃斯(Till Voss)坚称。他表示,这些公司面临日益复杂的国家级遗传数据使用规则,这形成了一个法律地雷阵,且往往不明确哪个国家可以主张对某一遗传数据的所有权。
沃斯补充道,如果企业能够通过向卡利基金缴纳资金而免除这些索赔要求,这将是一个吸引人的选择。然而,各国尚未达成一致,即卡利基金的缴纳是否应当免除国家法律下的支付要求。
沃斯进一步指出,资金使用不明确带来了额外的法律风险。作为上市公司,我们需要知道资金最终将流向何处。
今年在亚美尼亚首都埃里温举行的联合国生物多样性大会,于周六凌晨结束后,仅在部分问题上取得有限进展,而卡利基金的相关问题则大多被推迟至2028年下一届大会讨论。
塔姆比塞蒂认为,企业游说是其中一个原因,官员们花费过多时间处理行业关切,而不是专注于让基金起步。
卡利基金的尴尬开局表明,仅仅设立基金并不能保证成功。
MORAL MONEY

he creation of the Cali Fund in November 2024 was hailed by the UN as a “historic decision of global importance”, which could
raise billions of dollars from big corporations to protect biodiversity.
So far, it's received almost nothing. Is the idea fatally flawed or might it yet fly?
Two years ago in the Colombian city of Cali, global governments agreed on a plan to raise big sums of money from large companies to finance environmental protection.
Contributions to the new Cali Fund would come from businesses in sectors, such as pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, that make use of “digital sequence information” – genetic data uploaded by researchers on to free public databases.
The idea was that companies ought to make a fair contribution to protect the natural world from which they'd derived financial gain.
The agreement, sealed at the UN's biennial biodiversity summit in November 2024, stated that large companies in relevant sectors "should" stump up 0.1 per cent of their annual revenue or
1 per cent of their profits. If they all did so, according to a subsequent UN estimate, the fund would receive \$3.65bn per year.
The fund was duly set up and declared open for contributions within a few months. To date, it has received just five donations from a handful of smaller businesses — amounting to a grand total of \$10,588.
The Cali Fund is “on life support”, said Siva Thambisetty, an associate professor of law at the London School of Economics who has written extensively on this area. “There is much more at stake here than just this fund. This is really about whether we can make good on global commitments.”
So far, not a single big global company has paid into the fund. Campaign groups have accused them of “biopiracy”, exploiting genetic resources harvested mainly from nature-rich developing nations while refusing to share the spoils.
Yet, multinationals have an incentive to back this initiative, insisted Till Voss, who has been leading policy work around it for German pharmaceutical and biotech group Bayer.
Companies like his are confronted with an emerging patchwork of national rules around the use of genetic data, he said, presenting a legal minefield that was creating an increasingly heavy compliance burden – particularly because it was often not clear which country can lay claim to a particular piece of genetic data.
If a company could be exempted from such claims by contributing to the Cali Fund, Voss added, that would be an attractive option.
Countries have not yet agreed, however, that Cali Fund contributions should forestall demands for payment under national laws.
Further legal risk, Voss said, comes with a continuing lack of clarity on exactly how the funds will be used. "As publicly listed companies, we need to know where the money will end up."
This year's UN biodiversity summit in Armenia's capital of Yerevan, which ended in the small hours of Saturday morning after a marathon final day, made only limited progress in addressing these and other outstanding questions around the Cali Fund, which were mostly shunted to the next summit to be held in 2028.

Thambisetty argued that corporate lobbying was part of the reason for this with officials spending too much time addressing industry concerns rather than focusing on the core work of getting the fund off the ground.
The Cali Fund's embarrassingly weak start makes plain that simply putting
道德压力对企业无法提供足够的资金来拯救地球。
IDDRI智库高级研究员朱丽叶特·兰德里(Juliette Landry)表示,一个关键问题是:政府是否会采取政策措施,强制或激励公司向卡利基金(Cali Fund)缴纳资金。
她指出,一个主要障碍是担心落后于美国——这是唯一一个未加入联合国生物多样性公约的联合国成员国。
例如,在欧盟——欧盟已经对其经济竞争力感到恐慌——对欧盟大部分商业部门征收新的绿色金融税可能在政治上极具爆炸性。
兰德里表示,政府还有其他选择,比如为向基金缴纳资金的公司提供税收优惠。
但所有这些背后隐藏着一个更根本的问题:政府是否真的认真对待这种融资方式?
亚美尼亚峰会给出了一些不祥的迹象,最终文本指出各国严重偏离了2030年自然保护目标,这些目标之前已经设定。其中包括动员每年200亿美元以“阻止并逆转自然损失”的目标——根据经合组织(OECD)的最新数据,这个目标远未达到一半。
发达国家政府未能兑现每年至少提供20亿美元国际生物多样性融资的承诺,并且许多国家正在进一步削减这类援助,作为对外援助预算整体削减的一部分。根据2025年的承诺,这一目标仍未实现。
即使在最乐观的情况下,卡利基金也只能满足这一巨大赤字的极小一部分。
兰德里说:“许多来耶雷万谈判的人,来自环境部门和机构——他们看到自己的预算正在被削减,同时又必须做更多的工作。这实际上是一个不可能的方程。”

moral pressure on corporations won't deliver the finance needed to save the planet.
A key question now, said Juliette Landry, senior research fellow at think-tank IDDRI, is whether governments will take policy actions to force or incentivise companies to pay into the Cali Fund.
A major obstacle to this, she noted, was concerns about losing out to the US, the only UN member state that's not a party to the UN biodiversity convention.
In the EU, for example – already in a panic about its economic competitiveness – imposing a new green financial levy on a swath of the bloc's business sector could prove politically explosive.
Thambisetty pointed out that governments have other options beyond imposing mandatory contributions, such as offering tax benefits to companies that pay into the fund.
But behind all this lurks a more basic question — whether governments are serious about this sort of finance at all.
The Armenian summit gave some discouraging indications with the final text noting that countries were badly off-track to meet the 2030 nature protection goals that they had previously set.
These included a target of mobilising an annual \$200bn to “halt and reverse nature loss” – the latest figure is well under half that, according to the OECD.
Developed nation governments have failed to keep a promise to raise at least \$20bn a year in international biodiversity finance by 2025 and many are cutting this type of assistance still further as part of wider cuts to foreign aid budgets.
The Cali Fund, even under an unlikely best-case scenario, would meet only a tiny fraction of this enormous shortfall.
“Many people coming to negotiate in Yerevan, coming from environmental ministries and authorities – they’re seeing that their budget is being cut and at the same time they have to do more,” said Landry. “This is really an impossible equation.”

原油价格昨日急剧下跌,创下两个月来的最低水平,因为民主党在美国中期选举中取得压倒性胜利,进一步加大了对美国总统唐纳德·特朗普结束其对伊朗战争的压力。
国际基准布伦特原油价格下滑8.7%,跌至每桶94.60加元,美国副总统约翰·德文斯(JD Vance)将冲突归咎为共和党在周二中期选举中的惨败。他发布在社交媒体上称:“我们失败的真正原因对几乎所有人来说都很明显”,并补充称,民调显示共和党选民投票支持民主党的主要原因是要求“结束战争”。
交易员和分析师表示,原油价格下跌是由对冲突结束的乐观情绪驱动的,这场冲突已将全球原油市场推入混乱,并限制了来自波斯湾的原油出口。
“市场认为国会和总统的内阁成员可能会开始限制特朗普对伊朗战争的行动”,马歇尔·韦斯对冲基金公司首席市场策略师塞巴斯蒂安·巴克(Seb Barker)表示。特朗普的儿子唐纳德·特朗普二世(Donald Trump Jr.)在X上转发了德文斯的言论。
原油价格下跌触发了政府债券市场的反弹,该市场近几个月来一直受到能源驱动的通胀影响严重。
英国10年期国债收益率下降0.13个百分点,创下5月以来最大的日跌幅,降至5.16%。法国同期限债券收益率下降0.16个百分点至4.78%。收益率下降意味着价格上涨。
瑞斯达能源研究集团(Rystad Energy)首席经济学家克劳迪奥·加利贝蒂(Claudio Galimberti)表示,市场更新选举结果将使特朗普继续发动战争的成本更高。他说:“民主党的胜利改变了继续伊朗战争的政治成本。白宫仍保留对空袭、封锁和制裁许可证的自由裁量权。但变化的是使用这些权力的代价。”
纳蒂克斯银行(Natixis Bank)高级大宗商品分析师乔尔·汉考克(Joel Hancock)表示,在没有和平协议的情况下,布伦特原油价格可能会再次上升至每桶100加元以上,因为继续从波斯湾运输原油仍然面临困难。

\- Oil price hits two-month low on hopes US will look to end conflict with Iran
Oil fell sharply yesterday to its lowest level in two months as the Democrats' landslide victory in the US midterms ratcheted up the pressure on President Donald Trump to end his war in Iran.
Brent crude, the international benchmark, slid 8.7 per cent to \$94.60 per barrel after US vice-president JD Vance blamed the conflict for the Republicans' wipeout in Tuesday's midterms vote.
The price has fallen about 17 per cent since the end of last week on reports of progress towards a peace agreement between Washington and Tehran.
West Texas Intermediate, the US benchmark, retreated 8 per cent to about \$88.40 per barrel, leaving it down more than 15 per cent this week.
"[The] real reason we lost is obvious to almost everyone," Vance posted on social media, adding that pollsters had found the top response from Republican voters on why they voted Democrat was a demand to "end the war".
Traders and analysts said the oil price was being driven by a rush of optimism over an end to the conflict, which has thrown the global oil market into turmoil and curtailed crude exports from the Gulf.
"The market is saying that Congress and members of his own administration are likely to start acting as a constraint on President Trump's war in Iran," said Seb Barker, chief market strategist at hedge fund firm Marshall Wace. Donald Trump Jr, the president's son, posted his support for Vance's message on X.
The slump in oil prices triggered a rally in government bond markets, which have been hit hard by energy-driven inflation in recent months.
Ten-year UK gilt yields dropped 0.13 percentage points, the biggest daily drop since May, to 5.16 per cent. Yields on French debt of the same maturity fell 0.16 points to 4.78 per cent. Yields fall as prices rise.
Claudio Galimberti, chief economist at Rystad Energy, a research group, said the
Markets update election results would make pursuing the war more costly for Trump. "A Democratic sweep changes the political cost of continuing the Iran war. The White House keeps its discretionary powers over strikes, blockades and sanctions licences. What changes, however, is the price of using them," he said.
Joel Hancock, a senior commodities analyst at Natixis Bank, said that, in the absence of a peace deal, Brent was likely to move back above \$100 per barrel due the continued difficulty of shipping crude out of the Gulf.

1984年罗纳德·里根(Ronald Reagan)竞选连任时的口号“1984年‘美国复兴’”在某些关键方面依然适用。当时,它传达了希望与复兴的画面。在周二震惊全美的中期选举结果之后,一个所谓的“蓝潮”(a so-called Blue Wave)为大多数担忧由唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)及其“MAGA”狂热支持者领导未来的美国人,带来了某种宽慰与希望。
对于他们来说,对特朗普的这种发泄性否决(cathartic repudiation)并不一定会转化为经济或市场的持续满意。相反,美国政客在过去10年内纵容、甚至助长的许多扭曲与失衡,最终可能会被揭露。
部分原因在于,美国的商业周期正在老化。除了2020年短暂的新冠疫情冲击外,经济自2007-09.年金融危机以来再未经历过衰退。漫长的繁荣期让政客、决策者、企业和消费者都相信扩张可以无限持续。然而,自第二次世界大战结束以来,美国经历了12次衰退,大致每7年一次。
政客和投资者经常忽视对抗商业周期钟表的风险。经济学家也容易陷入这种否认。甚至美联储前主席阿兰·格林斯潘(Alan Greenspan)在1990年代末的网络泡沫期间也曾提及“新经济”(new economy)。
新时代的传说具有诱惑力。而这正是指向中期选举后更多“黄昏”(twilight)而非“黎明”的原因。当前AI新时代的过度投资正在发挥作用。美国正在对这一领域进行巨大赌注。布鲁金斯学会(Brookings)的研究显示,截至2032,七年内,数据中心项目宣布的累计投资将达到约$10万亿加元(\$10tn),这相当于该时期GDP的3.6%,是从19世纪的运河与铁路到20世纪的电气化、高速公路和电信发展这五次先前技术突破的1.1%中位数平均水平的三倍以上。
AI建设规模的扩张已经对支持美国经济增长(尽管增长乏力)产生了深远(profound)影响——中期选举结果可能会对这一支持产生质疑。但它也正在对

onald Reagan's re-election campaign motto of 1984, "Morning in America", rings true today in one critical sense. Back then, it painted a picture of hope and renewal. In the aftermath of Tuesday's stunning midterm election results, a so-called Blue Wave offers a sense of relief bordering on hope for the majority of Americans worried about a future led by Donald Trump and his cult-like Maga loyalists.
The cathartic repudiation of Trump for them need not, however, translate into sustained gratification in the economy or markets. To the contrary, many of the distortions and imbalances that America's politicians have condoned, if not enabled, over the past 10 years could finally be unmasked.
In part, that's because the US business cycle is ageing. Other than the brief Covid shock of 2020, the economy has not experienced a recession since the financial crisis of 2007-09. Lengthy upturns tempt politicians and policymakers, as well as businesses and consumers, to believe expansions can go on indefinitely. Yet since the end of the second world war, the US has had 12 recessions, one roughly every seven years.
Politicians and investors often ignore the risks of betting against the business cycle clock. Economists are also susceptible to such denial. Even Federal Reserve chair Alan Greenspan spoke of a “new economy” in the late 1990s during the dotcom bubble.
Tales of new eras are seductive. And that's what points to more of a twilight than a morning following the midterms. At work are the excesses of today's brave new era of AI. The US is making a massive bet on that. A tabulation of data centre project announcements points to a cumulative investment surge of about \$10tn over the seven years ending in 2032, according to Brookings research. That works out to 3.6 per cent of GDP over that period, more than three times the 1.1 per cent median average of five earlier technological breakthroughs – from the canals and railroads of the 19th century to electrification, highways and telecoms development in the 20th.

企业金融领域。今年,超大规模运营商(hyper-scalers)正从盈利现金流转向亏损现金流。随着利率上升,金融压力更有可能发生。
阿尔法贝特(Google母公司)可能成为这场危机的“金丝雀”。其最新财报显示,核心搜索业务增长骤减,显然被广受赞誉的突破——AI驱动的查询功能所“吞噬”。阿尔法贝特在2026年前九个月的净债务发行超过7500亿美元,而2025年同期仅为1100亿美元,AI杠杆周期的转折迹象不容忽视。
随着资产价格飙升,投资者初期的怀疑最终被“恐怕错过”(FOMO)式的投机恐慌所取代。每个泡沫都有其最后的FOMO阶段。尽管过去五个月美国股市长期处于高位波动,但仍然比历史最高点低约2%。所谓的“Magnificent-7”股票仍占标普500指数市值的约三分之一。广泛市场对极端集中风险的脆弱性,确实值得关注。
政治不确定性在接下来的数周和数月内可能加剧,因为特朗普(Donald Trump)将继续通过行政行动推行极端政策,而民主党则试图撤销其部分标志性举措,如对富人减税、食品券和医疗补助(Medicaid)福利削减,以及对AI监管采取不干预态度。当政治尘埃落定,国会行动被总统可能的否决所阻碍时,市场将再次面临停摆——这与以往一样。这可能意味着过热市场的黄昏。
你不需要是反科技主义者(Luddite),就要担心AI泡沫。所有泡沫最终都会破裂,而这个泡沫也不例外。问题不在于AI革命本身,而在于它对实体经济和资产价格的扭曲。2026年美国中期选举结果并未避免商业与金融周期的转折。
尽管AI泡沫破裂可能带来痛苦,但这可能是美国价值与全球领导力重新曙光的值得付出的代价。

corporate finance. This year, the hyper-scalers are going from positive to negative cash flow positions. And with interest rates on the rise, a financial squeeze is more likely than not.
Alphabet could be the canary in this coal mine. Its latest earnings report underscored a sharp reduction in growth of its core search business, apparently cannibalised by the very breakthrough that is being so widely celebrated – AI-enabled queries. With Alphabet's net debt issuance in excess of \$75bn in the first nine months of 2026 versus a little more than \$11bn over the comparable period of 2025, there can be no mistaking an ominous turn in the AI leverage cycle.
As asset prices surge, initial bouts of investor suspicion eventually are overtaken by the speculative fear of missing out. Every bubble has its final Fomo phase. While a long frothy US equity market has been choppy for the past five months, it remains about 2 per cent below its all-time high. The so-called Magnificent-7 stocks still account for about a third of the market capitalisation of the S&P 500 index. The broad market's vulnerability to extreme concentration risk is worrisome, for sure.

Political uncertainty is likely to intensify in the weeks and months ahead as Trump continues to pursue extreme policies through executive actions while Democrats attempt to unwind some of his signature efforts such as tariffs, tax cuts for the wealthy, reductions in food stamp and Medicaid benefits, and a hands-off approach to AI regulation. When the political dust settles and Congressional actions are stymied by likely presidential vetoes, the music will stop just as it has before. And that may spell twilight for overbought markets.
You don't have to be a Luddite to worry about an AI bubble. All bubbles eventually burst and this one is unlikely to be any different. It's not the AI revolution that is at risk. The problem lies in its distortions of the real economy and asset prices. The astonishing US midterm results will not foreclose the turn of the business and financial cycles.
However painful the bursting of the AI bubble may turn out, that may be a price well worth paying though for a new morning of American values and global leadership.

哈里·德姆普西 —— 东京
日本四大商品交易商昨日因伊朗战争引发的能源市场动荡以及铜价飙升,报告创纪录利润。尽管这些公司的首席执行官仍对中东局势感到忧虑,但他们警惕可能持续的冲突。
三菱商事(Mitsubishi Corporation)的中西克弥(Katsuya Nakanishi)警告称,冲突可能持续,并推高油价,因为对唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)战略的不确定性增加,尤其是在民主党在中期选举中重新掌控国会后。
“外交政策和地缘政治的发展可能产生影响,可能会延长中东局势。如果资源价格因此上涨,那么这也可能进一步推动通胀。”他说道。
特朗普昨日对《金融时报》表示,他目前没有计划对伊朗采取军事行动。这位总统降低了市场对其可能在选举后应以色列压力而升级冲突的猜测。然而,油价交易商和分析师担忧,特朗普的政策制定可能在共和党惨败后变得更加难以捉摸。
HARRY DEMPSEY — TOKYO
Four of Japan's biggest commodity traders reported record profits yesterday on the back of energy market turmoil triggered by the Iran war and surging copper prices, as their chief executives remained on edge about the Middle East.
Katsuya Nakanishi of Mitsubishi Corporation warned of the potential for the conflict to drag on and push oil prices higher because of uncertainty about Donald Trump's strategy after the Democrats regained control of Congress in the midterm elections.
“Developments in foreign policy and geopolitics could have an impact, potentially prolonging the situation in the Middle East. And if resource prices rise as a result, there’s also a possibility that this could fuel further inflation,” he said.
Trump told the FT yesterday he had no immediate plans to attack Iran. The president played down speculation that he was preparing to escalate the conflict in response to pressure from Israel after the election. Oil traders and analysts fear, however, that Trump's policymaking could become even more unpredictable after the Republican rout.
"The clean sweep raises more questions than answers, the most fundamental of which is whether Donald Trump will become a lame duck for the next two years or an angry duck," said Tamas
瓦尔加(PVM石油协会分析师)表示,美国政策不确定性可能延长中东局势。日本三井物产(Mitsui & Co)社长堀健一(Kenichi Hori)也表达了相同担忧,称公司正在为一个“地缘政治风险持续不可预测”的世界做准备。
三井物产表示,中东冲突将使其年度利润增加¥40亿(约$2.53 亿),这是在首季创纪录利润后的成果。其全球石油、天然气和化学品资产网络在更高商品价格和强劲需求下获利,并预计将在明年实现¥1.2的利润增长。
三井物产补充称,其液化天然气业务在明年将有“进一步上行空间”,预计将有更多燃料交易量。
三井物产、丸红(Marubeni)和伊藤忠(Itochu)均表示首季利润创纪录,而三菱商事(Mitsubishi Corporation)表示正在努力实现年度盈利创纪录。
日本最大贸易商的丰厚利润凸显了交易商从过去两个月内持续超过$100 / 桶的原油价格中获取的意外收益。三菱商事宣布了一项¥1万亿的回购股票计划,并将全年净收入预测上调至¥1.2万亿。
这些贸易商还受益于铜价飙升,铜价因预期特朗普政府可能对广泛用于电力基础设施和家电的金属征收关税而大幅上涨。[见Lex]

Varga, analyst at PVM Oil Associates. Concern about US policy uncertainty was echoed by Mitsui & Co chief executive Kenichi Hori, who said that it was preparing for a world in which geopolitical risks “continue to be unpredictable”.
Mitsui said the Middle East conflict would boost annual profits by ¥40bn (\$253mn) after a record first half as its global network of oil, gas and chemicals assets helped capture higher commodity prices and meet stronger demand.
Mitsui added there would be “further upside expected” in the following year for its liquefied natural gas business, with higher volumes of fuel expected to be traded.
Mitsui, Marubeni and Itochu all said they achieved record first-half profits, while Mitsubishi Corporation said it was on track to achieve a record high for annual profitability.
The bumper profits at Japan's biggest trading houses highlight the windfall for traders from oil prices that have consistently exceeded \$100 a barrel in the past two months. Mitsubishi Corporation launched a ¥1tn share buyback after raising its full-year net income forecast by 9 per cent to ¥1.2tn.
The trading houses were also boosted by copper prices, which have surged on expectation that the Trump administration could place tariffs on the metal used extensively in electrical infrastructure and appliances. See Lex

交易说明:
All data is as of close of the previous business day. Company classifications are based on the ICB system used by FTSE. FSTE 100 constituents are shown in bold. Closing prices are shown in pence unless otherwise indicated. Highs & lows are based on intra-day trading over a rolling 52 week period. Price/earnings ratios (P/E) are based on latest annual reports and accounts and are updated with interim figures. P/E is calculated using the company's diluted earnings from continuing operations. Yields are based on closing price and on dividends paid in the last financial year and updated with interim figures. Yields are shown in net terms; dividends on UK companies are net of 10% tax, non-UK companies are gross of tax. Highs & lows, yields and PER are adjusted to reflect capital changes where appropriate. Trading volumes are end of day aggregated totals, rounded to the nearest 1,000 shares. Net asset value per share (NAV) and split analytics are provided only as a guide. Discounts and premiums are calculated using the latest cum fair net asset value estimate and closing price. Discounts, premiums, gross redemption yield (GRY) and hurdle rate (HR) to share price (SP) and HR to wipe out (WO) are displayed as a percentage, NAV in pence.

周二晚,史蒂维·旺达在O2体育馆的演出
Simone Joyner / Getty Images for ABA
史蒂维·旺达 O2体育馆,伦敦 ★★★★★
Ludovic Hunter-Tilney
美国品牌近年备受质疑,但其中一个象征着公民美德和个人卓越的符号却超然于污点之外。史蒂维·旺达正在巡演他的杰作《生命之钥》(Songs in the Key of Life)。这张宏伟的双碟专辑于1976年发行,是在他之前对美国感到失望的时期之后推出的,当时他甚至考虑过放弃祖国,移居加纳。
这张专辑的50周年巡演于中选举日抵达伦敦。旺达是民主党的坚定支持者,但数千英里之外的选举斗争却未被提及。相反,这场演出浸染着歌手词曲作者对生命的哲学,以一种温和的传教方式。对于一个冷静的现实主义者来说,其核心信息“彼此相爱”可能看起来过于甜蜜和俗套——但当它建立在其巨作的权威基础上,或者基于旺达本人在几乎76年的盲人生涯中展现的非凡资源时,就不再如此。
他首场在O2体育馆的演出在黑暗中开始。旺达的声音响起,鼓励我们闭上眼睛,以想象、同情和当然的听觉,用他自己的方式看待世界。
然后灯光亮起,揭示他面对观众,在电子键盘前唱起《生命之钥》开场曲《Love's in Need of Love Today》(今日爱需要爱)。一排背唱歌手为他添加福音的抚慰,而他越来越热情地扮演着一家无线电台的“友好播报员”,传递着爱与恨之间灾难性冲突的“严肃新闻”。
他的嗓音状态良好,持续音符如同在最富有灵魂的蜜语中协商一般。专辑的曲目继续以“Have a Talk with God”(与上帝对话)开始,这是一首温暖包裹的 Funk 经典,他唱道“每个问题都有答案”,如同歌曲本身完美衔接的部分。
然后是一段精彩的风格转变,以管弦乐设置演奏《Village Ghetto Land》(村庄贫民区),由一组弦乐手和指挥家演奎。这是旺达对音乐厅艺术音乐的版本,将他歌唱的非裔美国人贫困和政治冷漠的阴暗场景提升为崇高。
长达100多分钟的《生命之钥》堪称音乐作者的巅峰之作。专辑上收录了不下130名演奏者。当时旺达仅20多岁,正处于词曲创作、编曲、制作和表演的巅峰状态。他曾威胁要离开摩城唱片公司——他移居非洲的潜在动机源于对音乐行业的挫折,以及对美国政治的绝望——最终获得了一份创纪录的合约,价值$37百万。
在舞台上分布的大乐队中,有两位与他一起录制了原始版本的音乐人。贝斯手Nathan Watts在“Contusion”(创伤)中奏出快速的爵士-摇滚节奏,伴随着鼓手和两位打击乐手密集的节拍。Greg Phillinganes,演出的音乐总监,坐在旺达身后的键盘前。
三小时的演出并非完美无瑕。在休息前的乐队介绍期间,节奏有些松散;而在下半场,随着11点的宵禁时间逼近,旺达越发急切,演出节奏加快。但这张伟大专辑的信息,与他回顾曲目中的其他歌曲交织在一起,依然没有失去其影响力。
音乐
Wonder(史蒂夫·温德)在舞台上被孩子和乐队成员搀扶着,手臂相互相连,展现了依赖关系的例子。爱情的重要性对他来说并非抽象概念。但这种共同体伦理与卓越的个人天赋相辅相成。除了弹电子钢琴和大钢琴外,他还吹奏出优美的和声口琴独奏,并演奏一种弦乐器。他的表现令人着迷。Wonder不仅是美国最好的,他代表了音乐本身所能达到的最佳水平。
巡演至12月19日,官网:[steviewonder.net](http: / steviewonder.net)

逃离伊迪·阿明
BBC💡 iPlayer
★★★★★
Rebecca Nicholson 撰文
1972年8月,伊迪·阿明宣布对乌干达亚洲人口进行大规模驱逐,给予80,000人90天时间出售生意并离开。他们主要是印度裔后裔,这些人在20世纪上半叶被英国人带到该国。
这部信息丰富、精心制作的两集纪录片《逃离伊迪·阿明》通过幸存者的惊人且勇敢的故事讲述了那年夏季发生的一切。它通过个人回忆和档案影像展现了1971年代充满敌对的反移民政治氛围,并作为警告强权人物如何通过诬陷少数族裔来解决经济困境。
片中采访了四位被阿明和其特别机构(Special Branch)驱逐的乌干达亚裔,并以他们的名字介绍他们,注明阿明1971年军事政变后他们各自的年龄:Bharti(10岁)、Paresh(9岁)、Harminder(11岁)和Maz(23岁)。
年幼的孩子们记得一个“理想”的童年,当时非洲人和亚裔在街头一起踢足球。Maz拥有一家摄影工作室,一度为阿明拍摄肖像。他们都记得阿明上台时有一种模糊的兴奋感,猜测他的崛起可能对国家有好处。
乌干达的经济状况源于殖民统治后的混乱局面,如当时的记者Jonathan Dimbleby所描述。乌干达于1962年从英国独立后,保留了三阶级体系:英国人、亚裔和约10,000,000人口的非洲多数。几乎所有企业都由亚裔所有和经营,而阿明“ready and willing to exploit that resentment”,如Dimbleby所解释。令人震惊的是,独裁者的言论与英国和美国今日的极右派言论如出一辙。
纪录片还展现了1970年代英国的不光彩一面:种族主义、对移民的敌意,以及不愿承担对持有英国护照的乌干达亚裔的任何道德责任,这些人因殖民统治而流落乌干达。
我们看到,随着英国政客和外交官讨论和犹豫不决,90天的期限逐渐流逝,乌干达广播电台播报每日倒计时。不相信逐渐转化为恐惧和惊慌,特别机构对亚裔家庭展开致命行动,包括儿童。
如果这一时期不如应有的知名度,那么这部强有力且全面的影片提供了一个紧迫的纠正。

Stevie Wonder at the O2 Arena on Tuesday night

Stevie Wonder O2 Arena, London ★★★★★
Ludovic Hunter-Tilney
Brand America has taken a battering in recent years, but one of its symbols of civic decency and individual brilliance rises above the tarnishment. Stevie Wonder is touring his masterpiece, Songs in the Key of Life. He released the immense double album in 1976 following an earlier period of disillusionment with the US, during which he contemplated quitting his homeland for Ghana.
The 50th anniversary tour arrived in London on the day of the midterm elections. Wonder is a stalwart supporter of the Democrats, but the electoral struggle taking place thousands of miles away went unmentioned. Instead the gig was imbued, in a gently proselytising way, by the singer-songwriter's philosophy of life. To a hard-nosed realist, its principal message of "love one another" might seem schmalzty and sappy — but not when anchored to the hefty authority of his magnum opus, nor the extraordinary resourcefulness of Wonder himself, blind for almost all his 76 years.
His first of two shows at the O2 Arena began in darkness. Wonder's voice rang out, encouraging us to close our eyes and see the world his way, through the workings of imagination, sympathy and, of course, hearing.
Then the lights went up to reveal him facing the audience at an electric keyboard, singing Songs in the Key of Life's opening track, "Love's in Need of Love Today". A row of backing singers added gospel balm while he grew increasingly impassioned in his role of the "friendly announcer" on a radio station, passing on the "serious news" of a cataclysmic conflict between love and hate.
He was in good voice, holding notes as if negotiating a point in the most soulfully mellifluous fashion. The album's running order continued with “Have a Talk with God”, a warmly enveloping funk classic in which he sang that "every problem has an answer", like the seamlessly interlocking parts of the song itself.
Then came a bravura stylistic swerve to the orchestral setting of “Village Ghetto Land”, played by a string section with a conductor. This was Wonder’s version of concert-hall art music, ennobling the dismal scenes of African-American impoverishment and political indifference about which he sang.
More than 100 minutes long, Songs in the Key of Life stands as the high point of musical auteurship. No fewer than 130 performers appeared on it. Only in his mid-twenties, Wonder was at the peak of his powers as songwriter, arranger, producer and performer. Having threatened to leave his label Motown — his potential move to Africa was motivated by frustration with the music industry as well as despair at US politics — he was awarded a record-breaking deal worth \$37mn. The album's ambitiousness met with equally vast commercial success.
Among the big band of musicians spread across the stage were two with whom he made the original recordings. Bassist Nathan Watts laid down fast jazz-rock rhythms in “Contusion”, accompanied by a dense weave of beats from a drummer and two percussionists. Greg Phillinganes, the show’s music director, sat behind Wonder at his own keyboard.
The three-hour show wasn't without fault. The tempo drifted during a mean-dering period of band introductions before an interval, while an increasingly hurried feel overtook the second half as Wonder became conscious of the encroaching 11pm curfew. But the message of his great album, interspersed with other songs from his back catalogue, hasn't lost its impact.
Wonder was helped around the stage by his children and band members, arm linked in theirs, an example of dependency. The idea of love's importance isn't abstract to him. But this communitarian ethos goes hand in hand with supreme individual giftedness. As well as playing electric keyboards and a grand piano, he blew beautifully melodic harmonica solos and played a stringed instrument called the harpejji. His command was captivating. Wonder is more than just the best of America – he represents the best of what can be achieved in music itself.

Escaping Idi Amin
BBC iPlayer
★★★★★
Rebecca Nicholson
In August 1972, the dictator Idi Amin announced the mass deportation of Uganda's Asian population, giving 80,000 people a deadline of 90 days to sell their businesses and leave. They were largely people of Indian descent who had been brought to the country in the first half of the 20th century by the British.
The informative, well-crafted two-part documentary Escaping Idi Amin tells the story of what happened that summer through the astonishing and courageous accounts of people who fled their homes in terror. It pieces together personal anecdotes and uses archival footage to convey the febrile anti-immigration political atmosphere of the era, and serves as a vital warning against strongmen who promise to fix struggling economies by scapegoating minority populations.
There are interviewees with four Ugandan Asians who were forced out by Amin and his Special Branch. It introduces them by their first names, noting their age when Amin became president following a 1971 military coup. Bharti was 10, Paresh was nine, Harminder was 11 and Maz was 23.
The younger ones remember an "idyllic" childhood in which Africans and Asians played football together in the streets. Maz had a photography studio and for a time sold portraits of Amin. All recall a vague sense of excitement when he seized power, wondering if his rise might be good for the country.
The economic situation in Uganda grew out of the messy aftermath of colonial rule, as Jonathan Dimbleby, who reported on the ground at the time, makes clear. After Uganda declared independence from Britain in 1962, it retained a three-tier class system: the British, the Asians and the African majority of about 10mn people. Almost all businesses were owned and run by Asians, and Amin was “ready and willing to exploit that resentment”, as Dimbleby explains. It is striking how much the dictator’s rhetoric sounds like that of the far right in Britain and the US today.
The documentary also offers an unflattering portrait of Britain in the 1970s: racist, hostile to immigrants, reluctant to accept any moral responsibility for the Ugandan Asians who held British passports and who ended up in Uganda as a result of colonial rule.
We see how, as UK politicians and diplomats debated and floundered, the 90 days ticked away, with Ugandan radio presenters announcing a daily countdown. The sense of disbelief curdled into fear and panic as the Special Branch embarked on a deadly campaign against Asian families, including children.
If this period is not as well known as it should be, then such a powerful and comprehensive film offers an urgent corrective.

唐纳德·特朗普曾要求选民假装他在本周二的美国选举中参选。他可能会后悔说过这话,因为反对党民主党赢得了国会两院的控制权。但总统并不是唯一一个选民间接表达观点的议题。
在某种意义上,中期选举是对AI繁荣或至少AI带动的建设狂热的投票。
目前,美国前五大数据中心建设州均由对新建满载服务器的仓库持鹰派态度的民主党执政。
Meta的“普罗米修斯”AI数据中心项目位于俄亥俄州——[图片来源:Jon Cherry / Getty Images]
这种政治格局可能影响到全球45%的计划数据中心扩张,根据高盛(Goldman Sachs)的估计。纽约州已经实施的新建限制,很可能会进一步扩散。根据Redbud Consulting统计的47个地方数据中心投票中,至少38个支持限制。
假设当局暂停新建数据中心,那么谁会赢?显然,那些已经拥有大量容量的企业会受益。
安索普(Anthropic)在上周IPO申报中披露,其累计“计算”支出接近$900亿。
这看起来像是一种风险,但如果服务器空间市场价格飙升,安索普已经确保的计算能力很快就会变成一种升值资产。
AI齿轮中的沙粒——即使假设这只是暂时的——对于那些股票价值依赖于高科技基础设施持续快速扩张的公司来说,并不受欢迎。
这包括所谓的“新云”如CoreWeave,以及更具投机性的建设商如SB Energy和Nscale,后两者都希望在美国上市。后者已经在英国和挪威的数据中心项目中遇到延误。
暂停令不会持续太久
D

onald Trump had asked voters to pretend he was on the ballot in Tuesday's US elections. He may regret saying that after the opposition Democrats emerged with control of both legislative houses. But the president wasn't the only topic on which voters indirectly made their views plain.
In one sense, the midterms were a vote on the AI boom or at least the building frenzy that it has inspired.
The top five states for data centre building are all now governed by Democrats with a hawkish bent when it comes to new construction of server-filled sheds.
Meta's Prometheus AI data centre project in Ohio —. Jon Cherry/Getty Images
That political arrangement could affect 45 per cent of planned data centre expansion, Goldman Sachs reckons. Curbs on new building, already in place in New York state, are likely to proliferate. Of 47 local votes on data centres counted by Redbud Consulting, at least 38 came out in favour of restrictions.
So imagine, for a second, that the powers that be press pause on new data centre construction. Who wins and loses? Clearly, it's good for those who have lots of capacity already.
Anthropic is on the hook for nearly \$900bn of cumulative “compute” spending, it revealed in an IPO filing last week.
That seems like a risk but, if the market rate of server space soars, whatever compute Anthropic has managed to secure will soon look more like an appreciating asset.
Sand in the AI gears – even assuming that is all it is – is less welcome for companies whose equity value depends on the continued and rapid build-out of high-tech infrastructure.
That includes so-called neoclouds like CoreWeave and more speculative builders like SB Energy and Nscale, both of which hope to go public in the US. The latter has already faced delays to data centres in the UK and Norway.
Moratoria are unlikely to last too
诚然,AI本身正变成一个极化问题——HundredX最近的调查显示,左翼和右翼倾向的受访者在继续使用该技术的意愿上存在巨大分歧。但它也将带来真实的经济利益。
此外,停止建设可能会给更广泛的经济带来寒意。数据中心的建设正在比其他类型的建筑活动增长得更快。
对于AI公司的投资者来说,暂停可能带来的“呼吸空间”有银色内幕。
计划中的AI基础设施支出已经达到夸张水平;融资它并确保对该投资的回报,现在是自科技占美国标普500指数40%以来,美国股市面临的最大风险。延误可能会让人沮丧,但也使得数万亿加元投资于可能变得过时或折旧速度超过融资者预期的设备的可能性降低。
此外,从金融角度来看,明年花费$1万亿加元相当于今天花费$870亿(使用15%的折现率)。将其推迟三年,则降至$570亿。
long. True, AI itself is becoming a polarising issue – a recent survey by HundredX shows an inclination to keep using the technology diverging sharply between left- and right-leaning respondents. But it ought to bring real economic benefits too.
Moreover, stopping construction in its tracks could send a chill through the broader economy. The construction of data centres has been booming
compared with other kinds of building activity.
For investors in AI companies, there is a silver lining to what might amount to helpful breathing room.
Planned spending on AI infrastructure has reached fantastical levels; financing it and securing a return on that investment is now the biggest risk to the US stock market since tech makes up 40 per cent of the S&P 500. Delays may frustrate but they also make it less likely that trillions of dollars are invested in equipment at risk of becoming obsolete or depreciating faster than its financiers expected.
On top of that, in financial terms, money spent tomorrow is less expensive than money spent today.
Consider some simple maths – \$1tn spent next year is like spending \$870bn today, using a 15 per cent discount rate. Push that out three more years and it falls to \$570bn.
Hotheaded tech chiefs will see delays as an affront. Investors could view them as an unexpected midterms dividend.
铜价狂潮依然势头不减,主要由人工智能基础设施需求增长和全球铜矿供应结构性短缺驱动。世界银行现在预计明年红色金属的价格将达到每吨13,000加元,比4月份的预测高出18%。但并非供应链的所有环节都能均等受益于这一繁荣。
例如,中国矿商和冶炼厂的命运截然不同。由于中国位于全球铜市场的核心地位——它是世界上最大的铜消费国——拥有充足的铜资源。根据标普全球(S&P Global)的数据,中国的铜产量在2016年至2024年间大致翻倍,其采矿集团已在海外扩张。同时,中国在全球精炼和冶炼领域占主导地位,拥有超过一半的全球产能。
当前市场环境有利于矿商,其销售价格上涨速度远快于单位成本。去年第一季度,Zijin Mining以每吨60,000元人民币的平均价格出售铜精矿,而其销售单位成本约为21,000元人民币,这意味着其毛利率为65%。一年后,该毛利率上升至71%。矿商在全球成本曲线中的位置越低(标普全球预计Zijin Mining将在全球铜和金成本曲线的前四分之一内保持优势),其能够获得的利润率就越高。
另一方面,冶炼业的经济状况则呈相反趋势。由于冶炼厂购买铜精矿,其输入成本较高。而其盈利能力取决于能够收取多少加工费。然而,由于新增产能超过了采矿产出,国际能源机构称,今年的年度基准处理费已经降至000,而现货费率甚至变为负值。
对于中国矿商而言,铜价繁荣至少带来了丰厚的利润:今年上半年,Zijin Mining的营运现金流几乎翻倍。这使其拥有足够的实力继续投资其自身项目并收购新矿山。
然而,其股价仅略低于8倍的预期收益水平,与全球同行如Glencore和Southern Copper相比,尽管其产能和储量规模巨大,仍然被视为一家以中国为中心的生产商而非国际采矿集团。真正的机会可能不在于对铜价上涨的赌注,而在于拥有最能捕捉繁荣带来价值的公司。
The copper frenzy shows no signs of abating, driven by growing demand from AI infrastructure and structurally limited mine supply. The World Bank now reckons the price of red metal next year will be \$13,000 per tonne, 18 per cent higher than it forecast in April. But not all parts of the supply chain benefit equally from the boom.
Think, for instance, of the divergent fortunes of China's miners and smelters. Given the country's position at the centre of the global copper market – it is the largest consumer in the world – it has plenty of both. Its share of copper production has roughly doubled between 2016 and 2024, according to S&P Global, as its mining groups have branched out overseas. And it dominates global refining and smelting, with over half of global capacity.
The current market environment favours miners, which are seeing selling prices rise much faster than unit costs. In the first quarter of last year, China's largest miner, Zijin Mining, sold copper concentrate at an average of over Rmb60,000 per tonne against a unit cost of sales of some Rmb21,000, implying a gross margin of 65 per cent. A year later, that rose to 71 per cent. The lower a miner's position on the global cost curve – and S&P Global expects Zijin to remain in the first quartile of the global curve for copper and gold – the higher the margin it can make.
On the flipside, the economics of smelting are moving in the opposite direction. Because smelters buy copper concentrate, they have high input costs. And their profitability depends on how much they can charge in processing fees. The answer, here, is not very much at all as new capacity has outstripped mining output. The annual benchmark treatment charge has fallen to zero this year, while spot charges have turned negative, according to the International Energy Agency.
For Chinese miners, at least, the copper boom is delivering a windfall: in the first half of this year, Zijin's operating cash flow nearly doubled. That gives it the firepower to keep


investing in its own projects and to acquire new mines.
Yet its shares trade just below 8 times forward earnings, a discount to global peers including Glencore and Southern Copper despite its production scale and reserves. That suggests they are valuing it more as a China-focused producer than an international mining group. The real opportunity, now, may lie not in betting on higher copper prices but in owning the companies best positioned to capture the value created by the boom.
看起来,加利福尼亚州的选民在周二否决了“亿万富翁税”,这将对如Nvidia的Jensen Huang和Meta Platforms的Mark Zuckerberg等科技创业者征税。
因此,英国可以为自己与时俱进而庆幸。财政大臣约翰·希利(John Healey)上周提出了一项方案,将公司创始人和大额早期股东在利润不超过£10的情况下,将资本利得税降至10%。
鼓励创业是一项明智的目标——尤其是在英国,其在欧洲范围内具有竞争优势。
英国的风险投资市场规模相对于整体GDP,仅次于美国、以色列和瑞典,根据加拿大开发银行的数据。
其中毕业生包括DeepMind(现为谷歌帝国的一部分)、金融服务集团Revolut和自动驾驶公司Wayve。
这项税收优惠,或“创始人减税”,已受到创业社区的广泛欢迎——之前的版本已被稀释,以减少免税金额并提高税收收入。
问题是,事后奖励创始人可能并不是最佳激励方式。谁会因为税收优惠而创业?
财政部2018年的一份报告发现,只有8%声称在投资时受到当时的创业者减税影响。显然,对如何利用创造的价值的思考是随着企业的发展而逐渐形成的,而不是在其诞生之时。
此外,仅仅让英国创业者“跳水”还不够。为了给社会带来益处,他们还需要找到方法将其创造物规模化。在这方面,英国的成功率仅为美国的一半。
虽然每100家美国“安索普”式创业公司中有4家能达到价值100亿美元的独角兽地位,但英国只有2家,根据今年一份英国报告。但如果英国的目标是建立下一个“安索普”,希利的创始人税收优惠规模太小,只能算是“微不足道”。
然而,尽管存在缺点,创始人减税仍可能带来一些实用性。多项研究表明,对激励措施持续性的不确定性对投资决策的影响比实际税负更大。成功后稍微多一些钱的前景可能不会影响那些有远见的创业者,但一些关于如何对待他们的确定性确实有助于决策。

It looks like Californians on Tuesday rejected the “billionaire tax”, which would have hit tech entrepreneurs such as Nvidia’s Jensen Huang and Meta Platforms’ Mark Zuckerberg.
The UK, therefore, can congratulate itself on being already in line with the zeitgeist. Chancellor John Healey last week laid out a scheme to reduce capital gains tax to 10 per cent for company founders and large, early shareholders on up to £10mn of profit.
Encouraging entrepreneurship is a sensible objective – especially in the UK, which has a competitive advantage in the European landscape.
Its venture capital market, relative to overall GDP, ranks only behind the US, Israel and Sweden, according to Canada's development bank.
Graduates include DeepMind, now part of Google's empire, financial services group Revolut and autonomous driving company Wayv
autonomous driving company wayve.
The tax break, or “founders’ relief”, has been well received by the start-up community – previous versions had been watered down to reduce shielded amounts and raise the tax take.
Trouble is, rewarding founders after the fact may not be the best way to encourage them. Who starts their own company spurred on by a tax break?
A Treasury report in 2018 found 8 per cent of those who claimed the then entrepreneurs' relief had been influenced by it at the time of their investment. It seems that thoughts on how to capitalise on the value created develop along with the enterprise, not at the point of its inception.
Moreover, it isn't enough for UK entrepreneurs to take the plunge. To deliver benefits to society, they also need to find a way to scale up their creations. On this front, the country is half as successful as the US.
While four in any clutch of 100 US Anthropic wannabes make it to \$1bn unicorn status, only two British ones do, according to a UK report earlier this year. But if the UK's ambition is to build the next Anthropic, Healey's founder tax break is too small to be anything more than a rounding error.
Yet for all its faults, founders' relief may yet deliver some utility. Several studies have shown that uncertainty over the longevity of incentives affects investment decisions more than the absolute tax to be paid. The prospect of a little more money, in case of success, may not sway those with a visionary bent but some certainty about how they'll be treated has to help.

\- Voters sweep Republicans from power in US Congress - Anger over cost of living spurs Democratic blue wave
\- Vance pins blame on Iran war as recriminations begin - Oil prices tumble and tech hyperscalers' shares surge


JAMES POLITI — WASHINGTON
Source: Associated Press as at 7.20pm GMT Nov 4
Americans have delivered a crushing rebuke to Donald Trump, sweeping his Republican Party from power in Congress after an election dominated by anger over the economy and the spiralling cost of living.
The scale of the Democrats' blue wave unleashed Republican recriminations, as the shell-shocked party sought to assign blame for a historic defeat in many traditional strongholds.
Vice-president JD Vance stoked the disquiet with a lengthy post on X in which he argued that Trump's war in Iran had led to the electoral wipeout – airing in public his long-held frustrations over the conflict.
"The reason we lost is the war," wrote Vance yesterday, who is expected to join the 2028 race to succeed Trump. "The president himself said so last night."
Oil prices tumbled as traders bet that the election setback would increase pressure on Trump to reach a settlement with Tehran. Brent crude fell 8.7 per cent to \$94.60, its lowest level in two months.
After the depth of Republican losses became apparent, the US president conceded that the Democrats “did a good job”, adding: “I don’t like to consider it a defeat for me. I wasn’t on the ballot.”
Vance predicted a lot of “infighting” and “gaslighting” among Republicans in the coming months, including over whether the party’s economic message was “sharp enough”. But “everyone knows why we lost”, he added.
In a measure of the level of voter discontent with Trump's first two years, Democrats made inroads deep into
Republican regions including the Midwest where Kansas elected its first Democratic senator since 1932, as farmers lashed out at high fuel costs and the president's trade wars.
The heavy defeats saw the Republican Party lose Senate seats from South and North Carolina to Iowa and Texas, where James Talarico beat Ken Paxton to become the state's first Democrat since the late 1980s to be elected to the upper chamber.
In Michigan, progressive Abdul El-Sayed defied a well-funded campaign and opposition from fellow Democrats to become the US's first Muslim elected to the upper chamber of Congress.
The Republican blame game came as the newly empowered Democrats rushed to sharpen their agenda for the next two years, having seized both chambers of Congress for the first time since 2023.
Hakeem Jeffries has pledged to outline the party's legislative plans within 100 hours of being sworn in as House Speaker in the new Congress on January 3. He said yesterday he would focus on "affordability rather than retribution against Donald Trump".
However, even with control of both the Senate and the House, any legislation that the Democrats introduce could be thwarted by the president, who

said last week he would "veto everything" if Republicans lost power in either chamber.
While the threat of gridlock in Washington raised risks for the Democrats, investors bet that the result of the vote could ultimately restrain the erratic White House policymaking that has stirred up markets. The S&P 500 rose 1.8 per cent by midday in New York, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 was up 1.6 per cent in a day of big swings as traders tried to pick the winners and losers from an anticipated Democrat backlash against the AI industry.
Shares in US hyperscalers surged as investors bet that established tech companies would prove less vulnerable to a Democrat-led pushback against new data centre projects.
Even with the count still incomplete, the scale of the Democrat's victory far surpassed many polls that had predicted solid Democratic wins.
"This is not a partisan moment. This is a patriotic one," Jeffries said.

Parties scan for favourites as 2028 race set in motion
Election day is still two years away but both Republicans and Democrats are mobilising for a run at the Oval Office. With Donald Trump disqualified from a third term, both parties will be seeking a candidate. Maga loyalist JD Vance is his most natural heir but traditionalist Ron DeSantis is a potential dark horse. For the Democrats, the field is open. Trump scourge Gavin Newsom might seize his chance but the popular Jon Ossoff and star of the left Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez could also step forward.

Silicon Valley billionaires who supported Donald Trump by donating \$600mn to Republican candidates in the US midterm elections have been rebuked by American voters, whose anger at the rise of AI and Big Tech helped Democrats win a majority in both houses of Congress.
Donors including Elon Musk, who alone dumped more than \$470mn into various House and Senate races, gave Republicans a huge fundraising advantage. Nearly half of Musk's spending went to Ken Paxton, the scandal-plagued Texas Republican who lost to Democrat James Talarico.
Like Paxton, other Republicans competing for Senate seats in battleground states lost. "Tech executives spent hundreds of millions of dollars but their efforts proved to be nothing more than a paper tiger," said Sacha Haworth, who heads the non-profit group Tech Oversight Project.
"The money didn't work," said one political operative who had coordinated spending in the midterms. "Elon Musk spent half a billion dollars and lost every race he showed up in."
The tech billionaires' lavish campaign spending ran into a wall of voter anger at rising inflation and the Iran war, leading to the “monolithic” vote swing towards the Democrats, according to the person. “The wave was so big that it trounced the spending [on tech],” they said.
Crypto industry-aligned billionaires also spent heavily in an unsuccessful effort to prevent Democrat Sherrod Brown from returning to the Senate, where he has been a leading critic of the sector.
Fairshake, a Super Pac established to support crypto-friendly candidates, spent more than \$50mn on ads against Brown, the former chair of the Senate banking committee.
In a further blow to the tech industry, dozens of data centre moratoriums were passed, as voters voiced opposition to construction of the infrastructure that underpins the AI boom.
Senior Democrats including Greg Casar, the leader of the progressive bloc in the House of Representatives, are already calling for the party to use its new powers in Congress to force AI bosses to testify under oath next year.
After the results were clear, Musk deleted a post on X in which he had encouraged voters to back Republican candidates. "Vote red today!" he wrote while the polls were open, but the post was taken down after the scale of the Democrats' victory became clear. Blow to Musk page 2

Parties scan for favourites as 2028 race set in motion
Election day is still two years away but both Republicans and Democrats are mobilising for a run at the Oval Office. With Donald Trump disqualified from a third term, both parties will be seeking a candidate. Maga loyalist JD Vance is his most natural heir but traditionalist Ron DeSantis is a potential dark horse. For the Democrats, the field is open. Trump scourge Gavin Newsom might seize his chance but the popular Jon Ossoff and star of the left Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez could also step forward.

Republicans across the US did not take long to turn on each other as it became clear they would lose both the House and Senate.
They blamed Donald Trump for attacking Iran, breaking pledges including those on entering no new wars and lowering costs.
They also blamed him for bulldozing the White House ballroom, taking a jet from Qatar, earning \$2bn in his first year in office, and initially resisting Congress's effort to release the Jeffrey Epstein files. And they blamed Trump for federal agents shooting and killing US citizens in Minneapolis.
US vice-president JD Vance was quick to join the recriminations yesterday, blaming Trump's war in Iran for the Republicans wipeout.
"The reason we lost is the war," Vance wrote in a lengthy post on X.
He said there would be a lot of "infighting" and "gaslighting" among

Republicans in the coming months about what went wrong, including whether the party's economic message was “sharp enough”, but “everyone knows why we lost. And any honest conversation about where we go from here must start there.”
Marc Short, Trump's former director of legislative affairs, said it was “time for Republicans to do some soul-searching,” adding on X: “It’s hard to think of a [White House] that’s sabotaged House and Senate candidates more than this one.”
The party's Senate candidates lost in North Carolina, Iowa, South Carolina, Texas and Kansas – states that had not elected a Democrat to the Senate since 2008, 2008, 1998, 1988 and 1932 respectively. Susan Collins lost in Maine, after serving in the Senate for 30 years.

Those in touch with the White House said the mood was “bad” and “sombre”. The heads of the House and Senate campaign arms both had embarrassing losses: Richard Hudson lost his own House seat in North Carolina and Tim Scott saw his South Carolina seat turn blue.
"After the Biden era, Americans wanted an economy that worked for them. Instead, they received a hastily executed war, headline after headline of scandals, a ballooning \$40tn debt, and unpredictable tariffs," said Utah senator John Curtis.
"It's time for Republicans to return to the principled conservative values that once defined us – and that we've steadily abandoned."
Some said the party as they knew it was done. “Colossal failure at all levels,” said Roy Bailey, who raised money for Trump’s 2016 campaign and Ron DeSantis’s 2024 campaign. “A complete referendum on Trump!”
"I hate to say it, but America is over," said Maga activist Laura Loomer on X.
Others blamed the candidates and Trump's staff.
Caroline Sunshine, a former Trump campaign spokesperson, called for chief of staff Susie Wiles to resign.
"We got wiped out," she wrote to the FT. "The coalition Trump built in 2024 got burned down tonight . . . if she cares about the future of the GOP, she'll take that accountability."
A Republican operative close to the White House attacked the party's candidates and said: "I think the Republican Party is going to be dead, when the president is gone."
Interpersonal rivalries spilled out.
In South Carolina, Ralph Norman, who ran against Trump-endorsed Dar-line Graham in the GOP primary, texted the FT that his opponent lost because “the President along with the Republican Establishment tried to PROP UP and FORCE SC to elect a candidate that the voters revolted against”.
Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie went after losing Ohio gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy for airing an advert featuring the estranged mother of his Democratic opponent Amy Acton. “The ad was an X-ray of Vivek’s rotten moral centre,” said Christie, who ran against Ramaswamy in the 2024 presidential primary.
Kansas, where a Democrat had not won a Senate seat in nearly 100 years, was a particularly sore spot, with Senator Roger Marshall damaged by the New York Times revealing he sued hundreds of patients over outstanding bills during his medical career. “Marshall is the worst senator in the history of Kansas,” said one Kansas GOP operative.
Trump, of course, insisted he would have won. "I wasn't on the Ballot and if I was, we would have won IN A LAND-SLIDE!" he posted on Truth Social.

Democrats
STEPHANIE FINDLAY — AUSTIN
James Talarico's sweeping victory in Texas to score the Democrats' first Senate race win in the state in more than 30 years was a blow not just to his opponent Ken Paxton but also the man who had ploughed tens of millions of dollars into bankrolling the Republican's campaign: Elon Musk.
The billionaire, who has tied his fortune to Texas since relocating Tesla's headquarters to the state, had deployed his financial firepower against Talarico while using his platform X to fan conspiracy theories about the Democrat.
Early last month, amid a conservative social media conspiracy that Talarico had been institutionalised in Ohio after he disappeared from the campaign trail, Musk posted: “There is something deeply wrong with Talarico.”
The 37-year-old candidate hit back, saying: "There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal US Senator."
On Tuesday, as voters headed to the polls, Musk reshared a post on
X from US President Donald Trump referring to Talarico as "TalaFREAKO".
Texas boasted the second most expensive Senate race in the country, with the contest between Paxton and Talarico costing more than \$430mn, the bulk of which was spent by Republicans, according to advertisement-tracking firm AdImpact.
Musk's Pac alone contributed \$47mn to the Republican Senate race in Texas and \$158mn to the Senate Leadership Fund, the Republican Senate's main Super Pac, in September.
“Without Elon Musk coming in, Paxton’s campaign would have been completely bereft of financial backing,” said Mark Jones, a political science professor at Rice University in Houston.
In his acceptance speech yesterday, Talarico said: "We just sent a message to every billionaire mega-donor . . . every trillionaire mega-donor."
Since moving Tesla's base to Texas, Musk has rooted his business empire there, building his own town called Starbase, a rocket launch site that is home to SpaceX headquarters.
In another blow to Musk, Greg Abbott, the state's Republican governor who was backed by Silicon Valley for his light-touch regulation, was defeated by Democrat Gina Hinojosa.
Hinojosa has promised an immediate moratorium on data centre development in the state after AI became a flashpoint for voters.
Musk's backing had been a lifeline for Paxton after Senate Republicans had already spent millions supporting veteran Texas senator John Cornyn in the
'People got so excited [when Trump threatened to run for a third term], but we've got to let this guy go'
GEORGE STEER — NEW YORK
Flanked by portraits of Richard Nixon and the Pope, New York Young Republican Club campaign chair Mario Nicoletto cracked a joke befitting of the president even as Tuesday's blue wave gathered force.
“Your leaders in the Republican Party have failed you,” Nicoletto told a thinning crowd of baby-faced conservatives gathered on the top floor of a Manhattan townhouse. “But we are the future of the party, which is a little double entendre because we are the future of the party and we also throw great parties.”
By 10.30pm, the party was all but over. With the Democrats on the cusp of securing a majority in the US Senate, and closing in on the House of Representatives, several of the NYYRC members still standing late on Tuesday seemed in little doubt about who was to blame.
“I was excited when [President Donald] Trump was elected a second time. It felt like a historic moment to flip a lot of the inefficiencies and evils and excesses that me and many others had noticed,” said Nathan Shepherd, a 21-year-old classical musician from the Midwest who joined the NYYRC last year.
"After that effect wore off, there has been less to hold on to as promises aren't kept. People feel a deep sense of deceit."
Even members of the NYYRC's top brass seemed worn down by Trump's unpredictability.
“People got so excited [when Trump threatened to run for a third term], but we’ve got to let this guy go,” said Alexis Winters, NYYRC corresponding secretary. “Trump was very, very useful and he was necessary at the time he came around. I am still happy with his presidency, but I am also ready for someone new.”
The NYYRC today boasts almost 2,000 members and describes itself as “the vital heart of unapologetic conservatism in New York”. Steve Bannon, Trump’s chief strategist in his first term, and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, attended the club’s annual black-tie gala in 2024. Trump was a keynote speaker the year before.

Chair Mario Nicoletto addresses the NYYRC on Tuesday night
In July, the NYYRC attracted scrutiny after New York magazine alleged that it had become a hotbed of racism and misogyny. The club denied the allegations.
Like the Republican Party it supports, the NYYRC also appears increasingly divided by the sort of internecine squabbling usually associated with leftwing politics. The party's relationship with the Israeli government and the Trump administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files "are at the core of the rift", according to an article in the NYYRC's September periodical.
The same article went on to single out the “third world hordes invited in by the Democrats [who] do not allow their poor financial situation to get in the way of having as many children as possible”.
Almost all of the NYYRC members who spoke to the FT said their older ideological compatriots had lost track of what it meant to be truly conservative. Several added that the war in Iran, in particular, had proved to be a colossal mistake.
NYYRC president Stefano Forte — who this year visited Hungary to endorse rightwing prime minister Viktor Orbán ahead of the country's elections — early yesterday posted on X criticism of the “neocons and warmongers in the party” as it became clear that the Democrats were in the ascendancy.

JAMES POLITI — WASHINGTON
By the end of the evening, Donald Trump could only rail on social media about the crushing rout he had just suffered. "I wasn't on the Ballot and if I was, we would have won IN A LANDSLIDE!" he wrote on Truth Social.
US presidents have been beaten badly in previous midterm elections, from the “thumping” of George W Bush in 2006 to the “shellacking” of Barack Obama in 2010. But the humbling of Trump and his Republican Party in 2026 was in a category of its own – a savage rejection from across the country of the president, his allies and his agenda.
Battleground states and districts easily swung back to the Democrats, while Republicans suffered bruising defeats on their home turf in deeply conservative parts of the south and rural areas where they had seemed untouchable.
More than anything, the 80-year-old real estate mogul turned president who has dominated US politics for more than a decade seemed to have lost touch with the electorate.
"Brutal night!!" said Bryan Lanza, a former Trump aide now at Mercury, a consultancy in Washington. "Midterms were always going to be rough but this isn't what anyone expected."
"I have never seen a night like this," said Brendan Boyle, a Philadelphia Democrat who will become chair of the House budget committee in January. "No president has been so fully repudiated like this in my lifetime."
Republicans were fuming. “Blood-bath,” declared Erick Erickson, the conservative commentator from Georgia. “The GOP will say it is just Iran and gas prices. It is that. But so much more.”
He listed everything from “corruption” to “incompetence”, “playing nice with Russia”, “overly aggressive deportations” and the extravagant White House ballroom renovation.
Trump had tried to rescue his party with a star-studded convention in Dallas, Texas, in September and near-daily visits to politically vulnerable states in recent weeks. But he may have ultimately made the situation worse, failing to focus on the cost-of-living concerns that animated most voters and digressing on to issues such as building projects in Washington and the physical appearance of his preferred candidates.
The president and his allies seemed to have lost sight of how they won back the White House and full control of Congress in 2024. Trump ran on a mandate of quashing inflation, promising \$2-a-gallon gas prices and 3 per cent mortgages. But his “liberation day” trade war in April last year undermined those goals, driving up the cost of imports and keeping inflation uncomfortably high.
The real turning point came when Trump launched the war with Iran, leading to a surge in energy prices that sparked fury among voters.
"Every month, it costs more to live,"
Brendan Boyle, Democrat
said Jeff Rohrick, 54, who works for a non-profit group. "Like, how bad does it have to get? What's the line?"
Longer-term borrowing costs have also risen, with the benchmark 30-year mortgage rate surging above 7 per cent. On the eve of the election, the average petrol price under Trump finally surpassed the level seen under the Joe Biden administration, hitting \$3.46 a gallon.
"It is just way too much for gas right now," said Chad Kugel, 46, a warehouse operator in Boone, Iowa, as he prepared to vote on Tuesday evening.
David Wrigley, a construction expert in Pennsylvania who supported the winning Democratic candidate in a swing district, said: "Trump's a hated figure. He has been so divisive. And there is been more corruption under him than this country's ever seen."
But rather than taking heed of voters' worries, Trump and other administration officials dismissed them as a Democrat hoax and claimed the US was living in an economic "golden age".
“President Trump promised that he would end inflation on day one,” said Michael Strain, director of economic policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think-tank. “But instead of pursuing an affordability agenda, the president launched a trade war that increased prices. And then belittled voters’ concerns about the cost of living.”
Trump also stumbled in his choices of midterm candidates, using his vast sway over Republican politics to back figures more loyal to him than they were competitive in a general election. He made a huge effort to oust John Cornyn, the sitting Texas Republican senator, in favour of Ken Paxton, the state's controversial attorney-general, who lost the seat.
After the death of Lindsey Graham in South Carolina, Trump supported his sister Darline, but her campaign fell flat, handing that Senate seat to the Democrats as well.
The president's efforts to tarnish the opposition as socialists beholden to the far left, including in the Michigan Senate race where progressive Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed was on the ballot, also failed.
"It is just drama, and drama sells," Tommy Harris, a Detroit voter, said of the bitter attacks during the Michigan Senate race. "I want to see what he's gonna do," he said of El-Sayed.
More traditional Republicans, including Maine veteran senator Susan Collins and moderate Pennsylvania Republican Brian Fitzpatrick, were swept under by the backlash against Trump, even after they tried to distance themselves from the president.
At the White House on Tuesday night, officials sought to project defiance and argued that without Trump, the result would have been worse for Republicans.
“Regardless of how today plays out, President Trump’s resolve to stop the radical left is only going to become stronger. Buckle up,” one official said.
Before election day, the Trump administration attempted to influence the midterms, from threatening election officials with prosecutions to filing lawsuits seeking to intervene in certain races. But the result was so overwhelming that Trump could not say the vote was rigged. “I am absolutely willing to accept those results,” he said yesterday.
Mideast conflict
EDWARD LUCE — WASHINGTON
The US has no immediate plans to strike Iran, Donald Trump has said, as the president played down speculation that he was preparing to escalate his conflict with the Islamic republic after the midterm elections.
In an interview with the FT on Tuesday, the US president suggested he was content with the state of the stand-off with Iran – even as he signalled he was prepared for more war if necessary.
"We seem to be getting everything we want," Trump said in a six-minute telephone interview.
Asked about strong hints by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that there would be an attack this week, Trump said: “I’m ready, we’re ready. We’re locked and loaded if we need to go, but there may be no reason for it.”
The comments from the president came hours before polls closed across the country in congressional elections in which Trump's party suffered heavy losses amid voter anxiety about inflation and the surge in fuel prices that followed his decision to go war with Iran.
Yesterday, vice-president JD Vance said that the war was to blame for the Republicans' wipeout. "The president himself said so last night," Vance wrote on X.
On Monday, the US launched air strikes on Iran, hitting targets on Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz in what Washington described as a defensive move to protect American military assets in the Middle East.
Trump has claimed energy prices will fall sharply after the midterms and told the FT there was now more oil passing through the Strait of Hormuz — the critical chokepoint for crude supplies out of the Gulf — than before the war and a US blockade on Iran's ports was successfully stifling Tehran's economy.
"It's a brilliant situation," Trump said.
The US was not “really” fighting Iran, he added. “If you think about it, we haven’t really had a war with them in a long time, six months, maybe more.”
Trump added: “I don’t consider that we’re in war like Ukraine, wars like World War I, World War II.”
The US leader underlined that he would not share any attack plans in advance but said indirect negotiations with Iran about the fate of its roughly 1,000lb stockpile of enriched uranium – “nuclear dust”, as he calls it – were continuing.
“Even though it’s under hundreds of tons of rock, I would say that I’m not happy that it will be there,” Trump said. “So it’s one of the things that we do talk to them about. But you know, we’re having discussions, and we’ll see how that all works out.”
Hopes for a breakthrough in US-Iran talks have sent oil prices lower. But on Tuesday, US petrol prices hit a new average high under any administration.
Trump's subdued tone in his interview with the FT suggested a president whose attention has shifted, at least momentarily, from his job as US commander-in-chief. He took questions on Iran but preferred to focus on what he said would be a Republican midterm victory. "Every one of [his election rallies] was a home run," he told the FT. "They were packed. They had thousands and thousands of people outside of large arenas and couldn't even get in."
He also added he was optimistic that Ukraine-Russia peace talks were making ground. Trump's optimism is not echoed by Ukrainian negotiators.
Policy agenda
JOE MILLER — WASHINGTON
After Democrats spent two years watching from the sidelines as Donald Trump enriched himself and his family, started wars and imposed sweeping tariffs, the party has power again – and is ready to use it.
Hakeem Jeffries has pledged to outline an agenda within 100 hours of being sworn in as House Speaker in the new US Congress on January 3.
“We’re going to aggressively focus on making life more affordable,” the New York congressman said. His party would introduce legislation in “areas where we know there is uniform Democratic support”, such as reversing Medicaid cuts, tackling tariffs and attempting to end President Donald Trump’s Iran war.
Yet even with control of both the Senate and the House, legislation Democrats introduce could be thwarted by the president, who said last week he would “veto everything” if Republicans lost power in either chamber. On Tuesday, he posted an image of a red Maga hat with the word “Veto” emblazoned on it.
Some bills might not even make it to Trump's desk if his allies on Capitol Hill deploy the filibuster, which in effect makes it necessary for a supermajority of 60 senators in the 100-member chamber to sign off on most laws.
Progressive Democrats have argued for deploying the “nuclear option” to abolish the filibuster. Meanwhile, there is broader disagreement among Democrats over whether to introduce bold, reforming legislation or focus on bills that could win bipartisan support.
“I do not think it is time to propose things that the president [is] guaranteed to veto,” Hawaii Senator Brian Schatz said last month. “That is . . . wasted energy.”
But Greg Casar, a Democratic representative from Texas who leads the Congressional Progressive Caucus in the House, has warned that Democrats “must pass bills powerful enough to actually tackle the cost of living crisis”.
People close to the CPC — whose members also want to end military aid to Israel and restore foreign aid spending — said they believed some affordability legislation could win support from Republican colleagues and even the president. They pointed to the success of a bipartisan housing bill that banned private equity from buying single-family homes this year.
Brad Schneider, chair of the moderate New Democrat Coalition, told the FT he also supported introducing legislation that could be vetoed by the president. "We have to demonstrate . . . that we take [Americans'] concerns seriously, we are committed to making their lives better," he said.
There is more agreement among
Democrats on how the party should use its oversight powers, including issuing subpoenas and using their power to compel witnesses to testify under oath.
Jamie Raskin, a Maryland Democrat who is likely to lead the powerful House judiciary committee, has signalled he will investigate law firms that made deals with the Trump administration, the president's pardoning of donors and the “self-dealing” behind Trump’s crypto empire, among other issues.

Hakeem Jeffries said Americans 'want us to get things done'
Raskin also last week put oil companies “on notice” that they may be held liable for facilitating Trump’s deal with Russia to release diesel reserves, and wrote to AI companies, including Anthropic and OpenAI, demanding they commit to reporting safety incidents within 48 hours of detection.
California representative Robert Garcia, who will probably lead the similarly powerful House oversight committee, told the FT last month that he would be “aggressive” in pursuing the “Trump crime family”, their business partners and billionaire allies. He also suggested he would investigate Trump megadonor Elon Musk.
Aaron Cutler, a partner at Hogan Lovells Cadwalader, said he expected to see “a lot of subpoenas” issued to corporations and government agencies, as well as “stand-offs with the executive branch”. While there is consensus among Democrats over investigating corruption within the Trump administration, many want a broader oversight agenda. “Democrats need to do things that get some attention . . . including going after corporations and companies that are on the wrong side of consumer perceptions,” said Evan Roth Smith, a Democratic strategist.
He suggested hauling the chief executives of American supermarkets in front of Congress over rising prices.
The most divisive issue among Democrats is whether to pursue another impeachment of Trump – who turns 81 next year and is constitutionally barred from running for a third term.
Yesterday, Jeffries urged his party to focus on affordability rather than retribution against the Trump administration. “The American people don’t want us to get even,” he told MS Now. “They want us to get things done.” |

Democrats gained ground in the vast majority of House districts across the country, picking up votes in both urban and rural areas alike.
With most of the votes counted, the average House district recorded a 12-point swing towards the Democrats when compared with the presidential election result in 2024.
Areas where Republicans had gained under Donald Trump in 2024 swung decisively back the other way, enabling the Democrats to flip dozens of seats.
The largest swings of more than 40 percentage points were recorded in districts in Texas and New Jersey, especially in areas where Hispanic voters made up a large share of the population. | 34 seats not up for election | 20 | 51 to win | 13 | 31 seats not up for election |
The elections delivered a historic "blue wave" as Democrats swept to victory in Republican strongholds across the country, with voters punishing the Trump administration for soaring gas prices stoked by the president's war in Iran.
Within two hours of polls closing, the Democrats took control of both the Senate and the House.
Democratic Senate candidates greatly increased their share of the vote when compared with the presidential election result two years ago.
In Texas, South Carolina and Kansas
— all states Trump won by double-digit margins in 2024 — Democrats recorded huge gains, marking a massive deterioration in Republican support in states once considered deeply red.
The Democrats' gains were broad based, with the party increasing its support among almost all demographic groups, according to exit poll data from NBC News.
Younger voters swung more than older voters, with 72 per cent of people aged 18 to 29 voting for Democrats, up from 54 per cent in the presidential election two years ago.
All racial groups surveyed also moved towards the Democrats. Support among Latino voters — whose shift towards Republicans had played a pivotal role in Trump's victory in 2024 — increased from 51 to 62 per cent.

US MIDTERMS
Overseas reaction
Continent hopes for reset of fractious transatlantic ties and end to Iran war
FT REPORTERS
European politicians have hailed Donald Trump's sweeping defeat in the US midterm elections as a chance to moderate fractious transatlantic relations, with Spain's prime minister cheering the results as the “crumbling” of a “far-right wave”.
The US president's first two years of his second term have deeply undermined relations with Europe, as his mercurial attitude to Nato, trade war against Brussels and pro-Russian stance towards the war in Ukraine upended decades of transatlantic beliefs on the continent.
Politicians from across the EU's centrist and leftwing parties cheered the Democratic victory that hands Trump's opponents control of Congress. However, they were split over its potential impact on foreign policy, cautioning that Europe should not temper efforts to de-risk its reliance on Washington.
Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, who has been Trump's most vocal critic among EU leaders, presented the Republican defeat as a positive sign for his own fight for re-election this month.
"The far-right wave is no longer growing," he said. "It is crumbling."
Sánchez wrote on X: "Yesterday, American society voted against policies that only make people poorer. Against hatred. Against machismo. Against climate change denial and the privileges of the elites.”
UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham said the election results meant “the world has an opportunity now” to focus on an end to the US-Iran war and tackling high costs of living.
"I can't get people's cost of living pressures down until the conflict in the Middle East is resolved," Burnham said.
Germany's centre-right chancellor, Friedrich Merz, said he expected Trump to continue conducting policy by executive orders. "Trump has spent the last two years governing by bypassing Congress; why should things be any different now?" he said.
Germany's finance minister Lars
Klingbeil, who is also the co-leader of the country's Social Democrats (SPD), said “rightwing populists” and “authoritarian forces” had been defeated in the US midterms.
He said his country would reach out to US Democrats, as well as to the “reasonable forces” in the Republican Party, to get rid of trade tariffs, stop Washington’s “nonsensical war in Iran” and help Ukraine against Russian aggression.
Stefan Löfven, president of the Party of European Socialists, added that the result was “a chance to return American democracy to normal . . . Congress now has a mandate to do its job: to scrutinise, legislate and hold the president to account.”
Germany's defence minister Boris Pistorius, also a member of Germany's centre-left SPD party, offered “congratulations to the Democrats” but pledged that Berlin would “continue to work closely and in a spirit of trust with the [Trump] administration”.
Since Trump returned to office, European Nato allies have drastically increased defence spending and investment in key capabilities for which they rely on the US, such as military satellites and long-range weapons. The EU has also signed a range of new trade deals with non-western countries and is seeking to implement “Buy European” policies in specific areas.
Germany's foreign minister Johann Wadephul said he was “somewhat optimistic that there will now be more talks between the two parties in Congress in terms of what can be done to support Ukraine”.
But Trump's ambassador to Nato cautioned against those expecting a shift.
"The foreign policy of the United States has not changed. And we shouldn't expect that it would change in a midterm election," said Matthew Whitaker.

ALEX ROGERS — WASHINGTON
Democrats won control of the US Senate by taking states in traditional Republican strongholds in a string of victories that brings new blood to Washington.
The next generation of Democratic leaders – which many see as a field for potential presidential candidates – includes a Methodist pastor, a Paralympic gold medallist, a logger, a paediatrician, a state health official and a former sixth-grade teacher.
After years in which the party was dominated by older grandees such as former president Joe Biden and senator Bernie Sanders, the new intake brings a younger generation into view.
These are the new senators to watch:
A Rhodes Scholar and former county health director, Abdul El-Sayed won a crucial Midwest swing state on a far-left platform.
He has proposed the abolition of ICE and guaranteeing healthcare for all. El-Sayed, who will become the first Muslim US senator in American history, has called Benjamin Netanyahu's response to Hamas's October 7 2023 attack on Israel a "genocide".
In August, El-Sayed apologised to a group of Jewish Democrats for previously saying that “hurt people hurt people” after an attack on a Michigan synagogue.
El-Sayed, 42, won despite late opposition from former Democratic opponent Haley Stevens, who endorsed his Republican challenger Mike Rogers.
A former sixth-grade teacher studying to become a Presbyterian pastor, James Talarico is the first Democrat to win a Senate race in Texas since 1988.
In his campaign Talarico, 37, tied the affordability crisis to corruption, pushing for greater deductions on healthcare and housing, higher taxes on wealth and a ban on Super Pacs, gerrymandering and congressional stock trading.
Republicans threw the kitchen sink at Talarico, dubbing him “Talafreako”, falsely claiming he was a vegan and ridiculing him for once saying “God is non-binary”.

Donald Trump endorsed Ken Paxton, Talarico's Republican opponent, despite the state attorney-general's long history of marital and legal troubles, including an impeachment by the Republican-controlled state House on charges of bribery and obstruction of justice.
Paediatrician Annie Andrews is the first South Carolina Democrat elected to the Senate since 1998, beating Lindsey Graham's sister Darline, who was appointed to the seat after her brother's death.
Andrews, 46, ran on a programme that included the expansion of Medicaid, which provides health insurance for the poor, and ending the war against Iran. She also adopted some Trump positions, such as making permanent no taxes on tips and social security.
The political neophyte also seized on one of Darline Graham's comments during a debate – “national security is not my thing” – to accuse her Republican opponent of being unqualified.
Adam Hamilton, a Methodist pastor of a megachurch in Kansas, is the first Democrat elected to the US Senate from Kansas since 1932, before the invention of the chocolate-chip cookie.
The 62-year-old beat Roger Marshall, a Republican senator who was found to have sued hundreds of clients over outstanding bills during his career as an obstetrician.
Former North Carolina governor and state attorney-general Roy Cooper beat ex-GOP party boss Michael Whatley in North Carolina, which had not elected a Democrat to the Senate since 2008.
Cooper, 69, pitched himself as a moderate able to push back on conservative social policies while touting liberal achievements such as a Medicaid expansion with the Republican-controlled legislature.
Iowa has elected a Democrat to the Senate for the first time in 18 years. Josh Turek, a Paralympic gold medallist and state legislator, combined a compelling personal story with well-crafted attacks tying Trump's tariffs and war against Iran to a rise in the cost of living. But he also sought to establish his bipartisan bona fides in a state Trump won by 13 points two years ago. He said he had no interest in impeachment and would work with Trump on immigration.
Troy Jackson, a longtime state legislator, pitched himself as a fifth-generation logger and labour activist in his win over Susan Collins, a 30-year veteran of the Senate and the last Republican in Congress representing New England.
Jackson, a 58-year-old Bernie Sanders-supporting Democrat from the rural northern part of the state, became the party's Senate nominee after Graham Platner withdrew.
Trade hopes
ILYA GRIDNEFF — CALGARY
Ontario premier Doug Ford was doing "cartwheels" when US midterm results showed voters had rebuffed US President Donald Trump's economic agenda.
Ford, one of the loudest critics of the president's tariffs, which have targeted his province's auto and steel sectors, said the election results were also “a victory for Canada”.
"I'm directing our ministers as soon as everyone gets sworn in, go down to Washington, connect with the senators, the Congress people and, of course, I'll be talking to the governors," he said yesterday.
The premier, who has baited Trump on social media, warned that while Canada may now have “leverage” in the trade war, it is far from over.
Trump has singled out Canada with relentless attacks over the past 18 months, threatening to annex it as the 51st state and imposing tariffs on its steel, aluminium, forestry and auto industry in an effort to rebuild the US manufacturing base.
In return, Ottawa has imposed levies that have hit US border states such as Maine and Michigan especially hard. Democrats flipped Senate positions in both on Tuesday.
“Picking a fight with America’s closest ally fed into a general feeling of the incompetence and bullying nature of this presidency,” said Professor Brian Rathbun, from the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy at the University of Toronto.
“Given his lame-duck status and the decline in Trump’s influence that will become dramatic in light of the results, [Canadian Prime Minister Mark] Carney’s bargaining position is strengthened,” he said.
Carney has yet to comment on the Republicans' electoral wipeout but said on Tuesday that a US trade deal may soon be agreed after talks collapsed in August. "We are making progress, but it's not over yet," he told reporters at a conference in Antigua.
Manitoba premier Wab Kinew posted on X that the American people have delivered “a resounding rejection” of the president’s two years in power.
Washington DC-based Justin Angotti, a lawyer in the International Trade and National Security Group at law firm Reed Smith, said Trump would stay in control of tariff policy so trade relations could remain volatile. “But the presidential election is in two years and you can’t talk about the economy without talking about the tariffs,” he said.
Mood shift
ANNA NICOLAOU — NEW YORK
"A hit job". "DUMB AS A ROCK". "Have to go somewhere else until that LOSER is off the air". Donald Trump spent election night glued to Fox News, furiously attacking his favourite TV channel as his party was dealt a historic defeat.
The president complained about the sound of one Fox host's voice, texted another during a live broadcast to demand that he attack her, and accused the network of turning against him.
But before the dust had even settled on an election that swept Democrats to power in both chambers of Congress, Rupert Murdoch's media empire appeared to be contemplating life after Trump.
Shortly after midnight, the Wall Street Journal's editorial board declared that Trump was the “main architect” of the Republican defeat and called for the party to debate what it stood for after him.
The New York Post, Murdoch's famously pugilistic tabloid (pictured), splashed a giant blue tsunami across its front page yesterday, depicting a helpless-looking Trump about to be engulfed by a wave under the headline: "Trump suffers historic rebuke as Dems romp in midterms."
Even on Fox News, the cable television channel where Trump has long
enjoyed the support of some of America's most influential conservative television personalities, the mood had turned muted.
Sean Hannity, one of Trump's staunchest defenders, was asked whether the election would have turned out differently had the US not gone to war with Iran. "One hundred per cent. I don't
think there's any doubt about it," he said.
Laura Ingraham, another longtime Trump loyalist, said the conflict had been “really tough and not well explained”.

The shift comes as Republicans begin to reckon with the scale of their electoral defeat. It raises questions about the future of a political alliance that has helped sustain Trump's dominance of US conservatism over the past decade.
The Wall Street Journal's editorial
blamed Trump's "erratic and self-indulgent" second term for squandering a "rare chance to advance the cause of conservative reform". It concluded: "The GOP needs a debate about what it stands for after Donald Trump, and let's hope it starts this week."
Advancing the conservative cause is
deeply important to Murdoch. He has described his companies as the “protector of the conservative voice in the English-speaking world". Last year, Murdoch agreed to pay more than \$3bn to three of his children to give control of his media empire to his eldest son, Lachlan, after his death – and ensure it remains right-leaning.
The Republican reckoning comes as Fox grapples with a steep drop in its television audience. Fox News's primetime ratings fell 28 per cent in October compared with a year earlier. This week, Fox chief executive Lachlan Murdoch said viewers were "fatigued".
On election night, Trump offered another explanation: Fox's ratings were "collapsing" because the network was "AGAINST me!"
Yet Fox was hardly abandoning its conservative instincts. At 6.01am yesterday, anchor Ainsley Earhardt greeted viewers starkly: "Your wallet and your way of life, in the crosshairs."
While Fox's sentiment may be shifting it remains deeply intertwined with Trump – a feature that was on display even as the votes rolled in.
Karoline Leavitt, who joined the network as a contributor this week after serving as the White House press secretary, told viewers on election night that she had “just talked” to Trump. She defended his record, complaining that the mainstream media had failed to cover his many accomplishments.
At another point during the evening, Trump texted Fox host Greg Gutfeld live on air, demanding that he tell co-host Jessica Tarlov she was “the WORST” before launching into a lengthy defence of his economic record. Gutfeld read the message aloud. Tarlov’s response: “Just press ‘stop’.”
Even while lashing out online at Fox, Trump still called in to the network for a lengthy on-air interview. He spoke to Brett Baier and Martha MacCallum for more than 20 minutes and sounded calm, almost resigned, as they pressed him to explain the stunning losses.
Trump brushed questions about the war in Iran and his cabinet members, and even commended the Democrats for their performance. "It's just a point in time, Brett. There was a mood in the air, I guess," he said. "I've been doing great things for a long time."
US MIDTERMS
Democrats
GEORGE STEER, KATE DUGUID AND HARRIET CLARFELT — NEW YORK EMILY HERBERT — LONDON
Wall Street stocks climbed yesterday, as investors bet that the Democrats' resounding victory in the US midterm elections could restrain White House policymaking that has stirred up global markets.
The S&P 500 was up 1.8 per cent by lunchtime in New York, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 was up 1.6 per cent in a day of big swings as traders tried to pick the winners and losers from an expected Democrat backlash against the AI industry.
The Stoxx Europe 600 closed 1.9 per cent higher, as global equity gains were stoked by falling oil prices. Oil prices dropped to their lowest in two months as the Democrats' landslide victory ratcheted up the pressure on Donald Trump to end his war on Iran.
Brent crude, the international benchmark, fell 8.7 per cent to \$94.60 a barrel after US vice-president JD Vance blamed the conflict for the Republicans' poll wipeout.
The election results pointed to a divided government, with a set-up that typically creates gridlock in Washington and has historically been benign for markets. “Legislative gridlock is good for markets,” said Arun Sai, senior multi-asset strategist at Pictet Asset Management.
The result also offered "a clear repudiation of tariffs and foreign policy that have hit global markets this year", Saisaid.
US stock futures had fallen overnight as results filtered through, but they later rebounded as the Democrats' clear win averted a “worst-case scenario” in which Trump challenged the legitimacy of the results, according to Kristina Hooper, chief market strategist at Man Group.
Shares in US hyperscalers surged as investors bet that established technology companies would prove less vulnerable to a Democrat-led pushback against new data centre projects.
Amazon, Alphabet and Microsoft jumped 7.1 per cent, 4.5 per cent and 7 per cent, respectively. Spending less on data centres would also mean the hyperscalers have more cash left over to service debt or return to shareholders.
"Amazon already has data centres, they've already made their investments," said one US investor who asked not to be named. "It's the guys who need permits who are in trouble."
Shares in CoreWeave and Nebius — “neoclouds” whose market value hinges on their ability to finance and assemble new data centre projects — fell 8.7 per cent and 5.3 per cent. Chipmakers were also hit, with Nvidia losing 1.2 per cent and Micron down 5.4 per cent.
The dollar fell 0.2 per cent against a basket of currencies as investors questioned whether the boost to the economy from AI could weaken. Treasuries strengthened, with the 10-year yield falling 0.05 percentage points to 4.89 per cent. Bond yields fall if prices rise.
“AI and data centre investment are key determinants of US growth momentum,” said Lefteris Farmakis, senior FX strategist at Barclays.
Elon Musk's SpaceX and Tesla lost 2.9 per cent and 3.4 per cent respectively, with investors pointing to greater regulation as a possible threat to both.
Defence stocks also bucked the broader optimism in US markets, amid investor fears that Democrats would curb Trump's promised military spending bonanza. Shares in Lockheed Martin and L3Harris fell more than 6 per cent, while shares in Northrop Grumman dropped about 4 per cent.
There was excitement among defence investors and executives in January, when Trump proposed increasing annual defence spending from \$1tn to \$1.5tn to build a “dream military”.
But relations between defence secretary Pete Hegseth and Congress have soured over the Iran war – and Democrats have vowed to reverse deep cuts to domestic programmes.
MYLES MCCORMICK — DES MOINES
JONATHAN VINCENT, EVA XIAO,
SAM LEARNER AND
MICHAEL TAFFE — NEW YORK
Democrats pulled off a sweep of stunning victories on Tuesday, as voters across geographic and demographic divides swung towards the party in huge numbers.
The “blue wave” proved much more extensive than most polls had predicted, as voters abandoned US President Donald Trump’s Republicans in droves, including in some of the party’s once unassailable heartlands.
These are the FT's top takeaways.
Democratic Senate candidates greatly increased their share of the vote when compared with the presidential election result two years ago.
In Texas, South Carolina and Kansas – all states Trump won by double-digit margins in 2024 – Democrats recorded huge gains, marking a massive
deterioration in Republican support in states once considered deeply red.
A similar story unfolded in the House, with Democrats gaining ground in the vast majority of districts, both urban and rural.

Three out of four of Iowa's House seats flipped to the Democrats, while they are set to flip at least three of Colorado's four Republican-held seats.
The two Republican incumbents defending districts won by Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential vote — Mike Lawler in New York and Brian Fitzpatrick in Pennsylvania — lost their races, despite more than \$50mn spent by Republican groups to protect their seats.
The Democrats' gains were broad-based, with the party increasing its support among almost all demographic groups, according to exit poll data from NBC News.
Younger voters swung more than older voters, with 72 per cent of people aged 18 to 29 voting for Democrats, up from 54 per cent in the presidential elec-
tion two years ago.
All racial groups surveyed also moved towards the Democrats. Support among Latino voters – whose shift towards Republicans had played a pivotal role in Trump's victory in 2024 – increased from 51 to 62 per cent.
Democrats managed to present a broadly united front despite deep internal divisions over issues from support for Israel to transgender rights and economic populism.
Intraparty schisms reached a peak in the final days of the campaign in Michigan, when Haley Stevens, defeated in the party's primaries, withdrew her support for Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed and instead backed his Republican rival, purportedly over El-Sayed's position on Israel.
But Stevens' defection – branded a
nately galvanised Democrats, driving a surge in donations and volunteers for El-Sayed's campaign in the final days of the race.
In Iowa, meanwhile, Senate candidate Josh Turek provoked anger among the party's base after he came out against transgen-
der athletes participating in women's sport. The move was seen by some as a cynical tack to the right that risked alienating progressive voters. But the party ultimately rallied behind him.
"I had to sort of hold my breath and vote for Turek," voter Jeff Rohrick, 54, told the FT. "I filled in all my bubbles and then I had to go back to his . . . but I voted for a [Democratic] majority in the Senate."
Trump's insistence on inserting himself into the campaign, telling Americans to vote as if he were on the ballot, back-fired for Republicans after a rambling message that focused more on quips and insults than economic concerns.

The president criss-crossed the country in recent months holding rallies he hoped would fire up the Republican base. But as Americans struggled with bruising inflation, Trump's musings about candidates' "pile of muscle" backsides and the "great reflectivity" of his Reflecting Pool renovations fell flat.
“He’s making it hard [for Republican candidates], ’cause he doesn’t keep his big mouth shut,” said Kevin Akers, a 69-year-old Republican voter in Des Moines, Iowa.
Where Trump did address the economy, he spoke about a booming stock market and chunky economic growth that most voters were not feeling as they were squeezed by a surge in inflation driven by his war in Iran, which pushed petrol prices up by a third and sent diesel costs to record levels.
Republicans attempted to improve their odds by redistricting several House races in their favour. Their efforts have largely failed in several states, including Texas and Florida.
In Texas, Republicans redistricted five House districts, roughly corresponding to three typically Democratic cities – Dallas, Houston and San Antonio – as well as counties along the border and Gulf Coast.
Democratic candidates have won four of the five races. The remaining district, Texas's 32nd, was still too close to call, though the Republican candidate had a slight lead.
In Florida, three of the four House districts Republicans redistricted went to Democrats, while the fourth was too close to call, with the Democratic candidate holding a razor-thin edge over his Republican counterpart.
Conversely, Democrats' efforts to redistrict California in their favour appear to be successful so far, with Democrats winning three out of five districts. The other two were leaning Democrat.
Trump waded into Republican primaries to unseat incumbents he viewed as not supportive enough of his agenda, and to handpick his chosen candidates. His efforts appear to have backfired.
Ken Paxton, who ousted 24-year incumbent John Cornyn with the president's endorsement this year, handed Democrats a Senate seat from Texas for the first time since 1988. Louisiana senator Bill Cassidy was also defeated in the Republican primary this year by Trump-endorsed Julia Letlow. While Letlow is expected to keep the seat in the Republican column, she led Democrat Jamie Davis by just four points on Tuesday night in a state the president carried by 22 points two years earlier.
Trump also tapped Darline Graham, sister of longtime senator Lindsey Graham, to succeed him on the ballot following his death in July. The president's endorsement carried her past two sitting congressmen and a former governor of South Carolina in the Republican primary, to ultimately lose to Annie Andrews in one of the biggest upsets.
Tech regulation
RACHEL REES AND MADHUMITA MURGIA
LONDON
Bill Gates has accused the Trump administration of stymying efforts to protect against the risks of AI, warning that the technology could be used to cause a pandemic “significantly worse than Covid”.
Speaking at the FT's Future of AI Summit yesterday, the Microsoft co-founder said that AI models' "stunning" capabilities meant "the potential for good, the potential for harm, can't be overstated".
Bad actors using AI tools to create bioweapons or attack cyber vulnerabilities across society posed the greatest immediate risk, he said, particularly given the ability to remove safeguards and monitoring from certain “open” models that are freely accessible to developers.
The “scale of the damage” of a biosecurity incident involving AI could be “significantly worse than Covid”, the tech billionaire warned. An estimated 15mn deaths were linked to the coronavirus pandemic in 2020 and 2021.
Despite these fears, international efforts to regulate and monitor AI and its impacts were being hindered by White House inaction, Gates said. “There’s not much value in acting unless the US is part of that. So we’re kind of stymied . . . The only question is how many bad events need to take place before they change their posture,” he said.
Gates is among the leading tech figures to have warned AI is developing in ways that could lead it to be misused or become beyond human control with disastrous consequences. The billionaire philanthropist has previously warned it could cause a billion deaths and lead to widespread job disruption.
Concerns over the safety of the nascent technology have ignited in recent months, with Anthropic's IPO prospectus last week warning of the potential "catastrophic or existential risks to humanity". Gates praised the frontier lab's honesty about AI dangers: "They've always been very open, and this is another example of that."
Despite the blistering pace of the technology's development, President Donald Trump has rebuffed calls for stricter government regulation of AI, dismissing a bid to develop G20 AI guidelines as a “globalist scheme” and instead favouring self-regulation within the sector.
Self-regulation would not work, Gates said. "As soon as we add multiple companies, then the only way to solve this moves up to the government."
He urged the administration to consider a benchmark for safeguards and monitoring, and to lead a global effort to fix cyber vulnerabilities and institute “massive” monitoring efforts across “air, sewage, blood” to catch potential AI-enabled infections early.
The issue of “the models themselves being out of control” would become a serious concern in the near future, potentially with upcoming models, he added. Gates argued this requires further government work on safeguarding and third-party auditing of new models.
He urged accelerated efforts to reap AI's benefits, such as drug discovery and alleviating hospital waiting lists.
“None of the good stuff happens naturally,” he said. Gates also declared his support for “tax[ing] billionaires” and the ultra-wealthy in a society uprooted by AI, in a seeming endorsement of California’s “billionaire tax” proposal.
Democrats are still toasting the mid-term results, but the US political class is already setting its sights on the next electoral battle: the 2028 race for the White House.
With President Donald Trump constitutionally barred from a third term in office, both major parties will be seeking a candidate for the presidency.
Some of the most successful White House campaigns launched soon after the midterms. Trump's winning 2024 bid was launched in November 2022 from Mar-a-Lago, and Barack
Obama's 2008 campaign began in February 2007.
This means that candidates will, in the coming weeks, start sounding out donors, visiting primary states and getting advice from pollsters and strategists about their viability.
For Democrats the race is very much an open field. The party will hope its sensational midterms performance banishes memories of the disastrous 2024 campaign when President Joe Biden withdrew from the race only four months before election day.

Marco Rubio
On the Republican side, the question for presidential hopefuls will be whether to distance themselves from Trump after the disastrous midterms – or stick with him, betting that a possible endorsement could deliver them the nomination.


Gavin Newsom

Jon Ossoff
JD Vance
Age: 59
Outgoing
California
governor
Newsom presented himself as Trump's chief Democratic antagonist during the first year of his second term, trolling the president with social media posts and attacking him at every turn.
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 14.9%
He has made little secret of his ambitions and may well be among the first out of the gate in terms of positioning himself for the presidency after the midterms. In an interview with late-night comedy host Jimmy Kimmel last week, Newsom forecast the “blue tsunami” that ended up sweeping across the country.
But he has failed to emerge as the clear frontrunner for 2028 in recent months, perhaps a sign that Democrats are looking for a candidate who transcends the image of a coastal liberal that hurt Kamala Harris in 2024.
Source for odds: Polymarket
Age: 39
Senator for Georgia since 2021
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 24.5%
One of the Democratic Party's most effective politicians during this year's midterms, Jon Ossoff comfortably cruised to re-election in a battleground state.
He gave Obama-style speeches on the stump, railing against Trump's enrichment while in office, his failure to tame inflation and the blunders of the Iran war. He mixed it up with viral takedowns of the president — including a jab at Natalie Harp, his close aide, that rankled the White House.
Despite Ossoff's insistence that he has "zero interest" in a White House run, he is currently the Democratic favourite with bookmakers to win in 2028.
Age: 42
Vice-president
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 31.3%
The pollsters' favourite to succeed Trump. Vance comes from Maga's populist non-interventionist faction, which attracts younger conservatives, and he has the backing of prominent tech investors among a wealth of other donors.
But for primary voters, he risks being tainted by the administration's decision to go to war with Iran and failure to reduce inflation. He can also be an awkward campaigner; a stilted exchange with doughnut shop employees became a viral moment in the 2024 election. He will certainly be aware of the dismal record of sitting vice-presidents convincing voters to give them the top job. Only one, George HW Bush, has managed it in the past 190 years.
However, Vance will still have a natural edge going into 2028 in terms of fundraising and name recognition that will be hard to overcome for any rivals.
Age: 55 US secretary of state
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 19.4%
The most likely — and most popular — alternative to Vance. Rubio has certainly endeared himself to the Maga base through his loyalty to Trump, but is still seen as closer to traditional Republican values than the vice-president, which would make him more appealing to older conservative voters and establishment donors.
Trump derided Rubio repeatedly as "little Marco" on the 2016 campaign trail when they were rivals. But he has come to rely on him heavily during his second term, tapping him to be secretary of state and national security adviser — and putting him at the heart of all his biggest foreign policy decisions.
Like Vance, his role in an unpopular administration could weigh against his bid. But Rubio would have the advantage of being able to step down from his job to prepare his candidacy.
Age: 37 Congresswoman for New York
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 16.4%
"AOC" has been a rising star on the left ever since she won a seat in the House of Representatives in 2018 and could succeed Bernie Sanders as the Democratic Party's progressive standard bearer in the primaries.
The New York native has clearly signalled she has broader national ambitions, campaigning aggressively for progressive candidates including Michigan's Abdul El-Sayed, and somewhat

Kamala Harris
Age: 62
Former vice-president
Despite her loss to Trump two years ago, polls show that the former vice-president still has substantial support within the party.
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 3.6%
Her bid for the White House in 2024 was hampered by being only hastily cobbled together following Biden's decision to pull out of the race.
But she would risk running into many of the same problems that dogged her then: stances on both economic and foreign policy that failed to resonate with voters, and her struggle to defend Biden's record. Her 2020 campaign also fizzled out before the primaries even began.

moderating some of her positions to broaden her appeal.
But she has time on her side. She is six years younger than John F Kennedy was when he became the youngest elected president in US history. An alternative option for Ocasio-Cortez might be to run for a Senate seat in New York — if Chuck Schumer, the 75-year-old party leader in the upper chamber, can be persuaded to vacate it in 2028.

Josh Shapiro
Age: 53 Governor of Pennsylvania
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 4.7%
One of the most popular Democratic governors in the country easily secured re-election in the vital swing state of Pennsylvania this week. If he decides to make a run for the White House, Shapiro would represent the moderate, centrist wing of the Democratic Party and likely clash with progressives both on economic policy and regulatory issues as well as foreign policy, where he is known for his pro-Israel views.
Age: 48 Businessman
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 1.7%
If Trump decides he wants to keep the Maga sceptre within the family, his eldest son might be the most likely heir.
He has mainly been travelling the world pursuing financial opportunities during his father's second term, but he spent more time than his other siblings on the 2024 campaign trail, and has cultivated plenty of potential donors with his myriad business interests.

Ron DeSantis
Recent opinion polls show
DeSantis was the great hope of anti-Trump Republicans during the early stages of the 2024 primaries.
With his second term in office about to end, he is seen as a potential dark horse contender if Republican voters decide it is time to turn their backs on Trump and the Maga movement and revert to traditional conservatism. On the eve of the midterms, he criticised the Trump administration in a radio interview for not doing enough to tackle political corruption.
But DeSantis was unable to translate his popularity and success in Florida into broader national appeal two years ago, a limit that would threaten to dog him in 2028 as well.

And though Americans have been drawn to dynastic power in the past — including the Bushes and the Kennedys — a continuation of Trumpism from within the family might be a tough sell
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 2.5%
Cruz is frequently mentioned by Trump as a possible Supreme Court nominee if another vacancy opens during his second term. But otherwise, he could attempt to mount another White House run after failing to beat Trump in 2016, then declining to challenge him in 2024.
Unlike Rubio, Cruz has kept some distance from Trump so might find it easier to be critical of the administration if the president's approval ratings continue to plummet in 2027. But he is not as close to the younger generation of Republican voters bred during the Maga years as Vance is, which could make it harder for him to break out.

FINANCIAL TIMES
'Without fear and without favour'
ft.com/opinion
The blue wave that has swept over both houses of Congress is a remarkable victory for US Democrats. More importantly, it is a historic victory for American democracy. Since Donald Trump's second inauguration in January last year, the checks and balances of US governance have been assaulted as never before by the authoritarian impulses of a president. The rebuke Americans delivered at the ballot box is a sign that the fundamental anchors of democracy have held firm. It offers a chance, if Democrats can seize it and Republicans start to see sense, to begin repairing America's political system.
US presidents have suffered stinging midterm setbacks before, from George W Bush's dual-chamber loss over the Iraq war in 2006 to Barack Obama's “shellacking” in 2010. But the sweep of both houses, coupled with the depth of Democratic gains even in decades-long Republican bastions such as Texas and Kansas, is the most comprehensive repudiation of a sitting president since at least 1994.
Saving American democracy may not have been front of mind for most voters but they were certainly exercised about top-level corruption. Above all, this was an election defined by the cost of living. Trump had sworn to end America's "forever wars" and lighten the burden on families. Instead, his tariffs and misbegotten war in Iran stoked prices of fuel and other goods, hitting working-class Americans hardest. Trump also pledged to drain the swamp, not commandeer it for his own profit. To an astounding degree, the president sowed the seeds of his own comeuppance.
US courts, which blocked Trump's efforts to take control of mail-in ballots, played their part in ensuring Americans' voices could be heard without restraint, as did the state officials of both parties who rebuffed demands to hand over unredacted state voter rolls. Republican efforts at gerrymandering appear to have backfired. The outcome was ultimately so unambiguous as to leave the president with little option but to claim he would accept it.
Two main risks still loom. One is that the Democrats are prevented by the veto powers of a vituperative president, or by their own strategic errors or infighting, from any achievement of note in the next two years – hampering their chances in the pivotal 2028 elections. Despite breakthroughs by progressive candidates, they should avoid drifting to the left.
For all the Democrats' justifiable thirst for a presidential impeachment, moreover, Senate arithmetic still means a third attempt would almost certainly be doomed, and would risk re-energising the remnants of the Trump base. Better to focus on investigating and holding to account the profiteering of
Democrats' sweep of both houses, coupled with gains even in Republican bastions, is the most comprehensive repudiation of a sitting president since at least 1994
the Trump family and their associates. For their part, Republicans should recognise the harm the president has inflicted on their political brand and seek to distance themselves.
The other risk – for America, and the world – is that an “angry duck” president uses his control of foreign policy to vent his own frustrations. A rancorous and unrestrained Trump could do immense damage, by relaunching his Iran war or embarking on perilous new escapades elsewhere.
America's uplifting exercise in democracy is only the start of an effort to reverse the damage to US institutions. This will be the task of years. And while Americans have followed Hungarians and Serbs in rebuking crony authoritarianism, the global threat of nationalist populism is far from vanquished. It could soon make further inroads, notably in France. This is, however, a decisive moment in America's political story: the beginning of the end of the age of Trump.
Opinion Politics

t was no ordinary “Trumpsterz Tuesday Triumph” at the Palm Beach Kennel Club, just a ten-minute drive away from the presidential compound at Mar-a-Lago in southern Florida. Nor was it any ordinary election watch party. It had been billed as a “VICTORY PARTY” (“one of the largest . . . in Palm Beach County!”) with free appetisers (“while supplies last”), a DJ and dancing, altogether just “a spectacular evening!”
It would even function as a kind of after-party too. “We are inviting all other watch party groups to join us for the VICTORY portion of the night,” the flyer had promised. “Whenever YOUR watch party wraps up!”
And the mood at the start of the evening in the Kennel Club's large, carpeted "Paddock Restaurant" did seem jolly indeed. After Trump fans clad in tight red dresses, red Maga hats and
star-spangled suits tucked into a buffet dinner of fried chicken, mini sausage rolls, chicken skewers and creamy tomato pasta – quite a generous idea of “appetisers” – it was time for a group singalong to “God Bless America”.
The evening's hosts, a deeply tanned, blonde-curtained 76-year-old named Tommy Gianquitti and a petite 64-year-old in a sequinned TRUMP cheerleading outfit and cowboy boots named Lisa Menk, took to the stage. There they sang loudly into their mics in front of a life-size cardboard cut-out of Donald Trump holding both his thumbs up, as a woman behind me in a "MAKE AMERICA FLORIDA" T-shirt held back her tears.
“Yeeah!” shouted Tommy. “We’re taking the House and the Senate tonight!” I had heard similar optimism from voters coming out of a polling station just a couple of miles north of Trump’s estate. “We’re very confident,” one of the president’s neighbours had told me. “All the polls have been wrong recently, and Republicans traditionally vote on the day.”
Earlier on Tuesday afternoon, the first break from torrential rain in several days was being taken advantage of at Mar-a-Lago (Trump himself was not around, having flown back up to Washington the morning after a lavish Halloween party in which he dressed up as himself). Club members played tennis, maintenance men fixed lights at the front entrance and the pair of surface-to-air missiles installed last week on a floating barge on the tranquil Lake Worth Lagoon amid a “heightened threat environment” gleamed in the Florida sunshine.
As the first results started to trickle in at the Kennel Club, spirits remained relatively high. There was a great cheer for Republican Byron Donalds' victory as the first black governor of Florida and also for Florida GOP Senator Ashley Moody's win over Angie Nixon, a member of the "Democratic Socialists of America". "We got the freak out in Florida – now you need to get the freak out in Texas!" one man shouted to another who must have been visiting and who was clad in a T-shirt covered in different kinds of gun and emblazoned with the words CELEBRATE DIVERSITY. (If he was referring to James Talarico, dubbed "Talafreako" by Trump, Texas went on to make him the first Democrat to win a Senate seat there since 1988.)
It was an odd sort of watch party because although there were huge screens showing Real America's Voice and featuring an improbably large version of Steve Bannon's face, no sound came out. So instead of actually watching, revellers danced at the side of the stage, doing the "Cha Cha Slide" and spinning one another round to "If I Can't Have You", courtesy of a 70-year-old Rastafarian named DJ Clemons, whose original reggae track "Jump for Trump" had set the room alight earlier in the evening.
That also meant it was left to Tommy to read out the results himself, which he seemed to take decreasing amounts of pleasure from as the evening progressed. “Hey I’m just the messenger, guys – I’m sorry,” he said as the crowd booed another Democrat victory. “It’s still early. Let’s continue to party and try to stay positive.”
Alas, the celebratory atmosphere began to ebb rapidly. The dancing petered out as people sat scrolling through their phones instead, and Tommy gave up reading out the bad results entirely. At one point, he tried to get the crowd going again. “The House is still up for grabs! Don’t worry about it!” but he was met with deathly silence. “I’m glad about Florida. That’s about all I’m glad about right now,” a West Palm Beach resident told me.
By 9.05pm, Lisa could be seen behind the life-size cut-out of Trump, struggling to disassemble him, so DJ Clemons jumped up to lend her a helping hand. By 9.18pm, Tommy took to the mic to announce the party's ending to the couple of dozen people still remaining.
"It was festive," was one man's assessment of the night. "For a while."

Reading the coverage of last week's Big Tech results (Report, October 30 and October 31) one might conclude that generative AI had reached Gartner's "trough of disillusionment".
It has not. Capital falling while usage climbs is not disillusionment. It is a settlement, and every contested technology has passed through one: home video after the Betamax case, recorded music after Napster, ride-hailing after the taxi wars.
Each time, consumers adopted first; institutions waited for the lawyers; most early firms died; and the money was repriced just as the rules were settled. The survivors then wrote those rules.
What slows business adoption today is not a mood but a siege: 145 AI copyright suits, rules the largest providers help draft, public anger stoked by the industries AI threatens and, inside the walls, shortages of chips, power and investor patience. A chart of expectations cannot see any of this, because it has no actors.

An AI agent authorised to initiate and approve withdrawals would reproduce that concentration of power, this time in a machine with no sense of suspicion. It need not go rogue: an ordinary error or a malicious instruction could be enough. The vulnerability lies in allowing one agent to act without an independent check.

The problem is not that successful partners are paid too little. It's that too many ordinary partners are paid far too much. For decades, the large law firm model has depended on clients paying inflated hourly rates to sustain pay levels that would struggle to survive in a genuinely competitive market. Hourly billing has been central to this arrangement. In most businesses, inefficiency eats into profits. In law firms, it can increase them. The mediocre lawyer who takes twice as long to do the job generates twice the revenue.
Perhaps the lesson of Weil is not that law firms need to pay their stars more, but that they need fewer partners, lower fees and a business model in which clients pay for results rather than hours.

We need to be willing to have a more honest conversation about the long-term sustainability of the state pension and the triple lock (“Andy Burnham’s ‘triple lock’ move reallocates, rather than reduces, spending”, Inside Politics, FT.com, October 1).
The debate about supporting an ageing population needs to go beyond pension payments. The traditional concept of retirement no longer reflects how later life looks today. Many people in their sixties and seventies are working, running businesses, caring for family members or contributing to their communities. The objective shouldn't be to make everyone work longer. It should be to give people the health and independence to choose how they spend those years.
That means thinking more seriously about prevention, timely access to healthcare and how we help people remain healthy and active for longer. Poor health can limit someone's independence.
We should be asking not simply how much more we spend on an ageing population, but how public money can best support financial security, good health and quality of life in later years.

FINANCE humping wins for the Democratic Party in Tuesday's US midterm elections open up a path back to something

by Katie Martin
resembling normal life for investors. For years now, money managers have grown accustomed to all sorts of horrors: an on-again-off-again war that has fired up inflation; assaults on the integrity of the markets' most treasured institutions, chiefly the Federal Reserve; and the gaudy spectacle of a self-enriching president blowing up international alliances and picking corporate winners and losers.
You can't necessarily point to the line item in a company's earnings report or flicker in its share price chart where these injuries occurred. But aside from the Donald Trump cheerleaders, everyone understood his agenda as undermining the predictable fair play that supports long-term investments.
Now we have a clobbering that the president is not seeking to bluster or dispute his way out of. The end is in sight. “We have got to get some of the randomness out of the equation,” as Michael Strobaek, chief investment officer at private bank Lombard Odier, put it yesterday. Enhanced checks and balances mean “the Republicans and Trump will be extremely careful what they do in the next two years”, he said.
Stocks did wobble in overnight trading as the results trickled out. But it is rarely worth placing too much
emphasis on flighty price movements in quiet moments of the global trading day. Since then, stocks have picked up markedly.
Still, market enthusiasm may yet be curbed by the risks that lie ahead under the new-look Congress. One is the chance that the new Democratic majorities could point to government shutdowns ahead.
Another is the possibility that newly elected officials at the federal and state level could throw up powerful opposition to data centres – a helpful moderation on AI excesses perhaps, but also a major potential banana skin in the race for AI infrastructure. Goldman Sachs reckons Democratic wins “are likely to lead to short-term data centre moratoria, potentially affecting about 45 per cent of planned US data centre capacity buildout”. Those moratoria may indeed prove to be brief. But widespread protracted blockages in this pipeline are a risk that keep corporate bond investors, in particular, up at night.
Investors have also told me recently they worry that a humiliated Trump could lash out in foreign policy in unpredictable and damaging ways over the next two years, or even seek to punish foreign investors for the perceived sins of their governments.
For now, though, these appear to be distant tail risks. "The market is increasingly likely to interpret surprising policy shifts from the executive as time-bound by the next presidential election or the new
domestic political configuration," said George Saravelos, an analyst at Deutsche Bank.
But there is one obvious way that markets could turn significantly brighter very quickly: an end to (or fizzling out of) the war in Iran. One of the reasons stock indices in the US have been going nowhere for months is this conflict, which has whacked up oil prices, helped to make inflation sticky, and pulled up borrowing costs — a problem for more cyclically sensitive parts of the market. Given the prevalence of diesel prices and the cost of living in the US election campaigns, it appears voters have noticed too.
If Trump were to walk away from Iran on whatever pretext he likes, oil prices would probably tumble even further than they did yesterday. Borrowing costs would fall, and the perceived need for multiple additional interest rate rises would dissipate. It would remove one of the big constraints keeping the stock market trapped. Trump could even claim the credit.
The undisputed election result removes the risk of protracted bickering and uncertainty that could otherwise have hung over investors for weeks. It does not open the gates to nirvana in markets – nothing ever does. But it does point to obvious ways that broad-based market exuberance – not just in AI – could make a comeback.

Opinion
US MIDTERMS
Edward Luce

uesday night looks like the beginning of the end of Donald Trump. His response to what amounts to America's stinging personal midterm rebuke is likely to be volatile. Yet it is hard to see how he could claw his way back from such a strong Democratic wave having urged voters to act as though his name were on the ballot. Against advice, Trump turned the elections into a referendum on him. He thus owns the Republican defeat.
There were plenty of other losers on Tuesday night. Elon Musk, who pumped more than \$200mn into the Texas Senate race, learnt that even historically large donations can't buy you love or results against so strong a public swing. His candidate, Ken Paxton, lost to Democratic nominee James Talarico, who was not even born the last time a Democrat won a Texas Senate seat. It was also a disastrous night for the once-powerful American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which spent a lot of money trying to defeat Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan. El-Sayed is now set to become the first Muslim senator in US history, having also got the majority of Michigan's Jewish vote.
It was a terrible night for Vivek Ramaswamy, the bombastic Trump understudy, who was defeated in Ohio's gubernatorial race. He might now bow out from politics having spent a chunk of his personal fortune on what was seen only a few months ago as a safe bet. Likewise, the late Lindsey Graham would be turning in his proverbial grave to watch his sister, Darline Graham, lose his South Carolina seat to a Democrat – the first time the party has won a Senate race there in almost 30 years. Many other landmarks have been passed in America's 2026 midterms in what early numbers suggested was a historically high turnout. America seems finally to have fallen out of Trump's spell.
In each race, Trump's heavy-handed input boomeranged. In a telephone interview with me an hour before the first polling stations closed, Trump said he had been energised by the enthusiasm he saw on his frenetic campaign schedule. Presidents normally strive to keep their name out of the headlines in midterm elections. Many avoid the hustings altogether. Trump covered the
map with the energy of a far younger person yet seems only to have exacerbated his party's electoral quagmire.
Not only did Trump thrust himself into the centre of each news cycle; he went out of his way to belittle the electorate's concerns. Affordability was a "Dumocrat [sic] hoax", Trump insisted. Though the Iran war and its inflationary effects was a dominant theme, Trump told voters he had kept every promise. One of those was to avoid wars in the Middle East. Some believe that he showed signs of cognitive decline. “I’ve actually kept far more promises than I made,” Trump cryptically suggested the day before the election.
Perhaps his most psychologically wayward choice was to deliver his big campaign closing speech in front of Washington's Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool — a Trump obsession that few Americans seem to share. In the annals of US political campaigning, no more bizarre closing argument can have been tried. The majority of Trump's one-hour peroration was about the pool.
“The reflecting pool right now looks better than it ever looked,” Trump said, having claimed that both Barack Obama and Joe Biden failed to upgrade the water feature. “We’re replacing all of the grass and all of the parks. Because like the human being, grass has a life also.” Some White House staff watching it on television reportedly buried their faces in their hands as he spoke.
Democrats will now control both chambers of the US Congress in a result that even Trump might find “too big to rig”. There are two immediate consequences. The first is that the Republican campaign to replace him as the 2028 nominee will begin at once. Indeed, Ron DeSantis, the outgoing governor of Florida, arguably kicked that off before the polls had even closed. Without naming Trump, he said no public official should make money from holding office. That suggests an anti-corruption backlash following an election where that theme topped many recent polls.
The second consequence is that Trump's unpredictability is likely to become an even larger feature of his presidency. To those who oppose him, Tuesday night was a lightning strike. But Trump is rarely outbid in the drama stakes. Whichever way he reacts, the 2026 result will change America's course. The 2018 Republican midterm defeat was the end of Trump's beginning, to borrow Churchill's phrase. This week's high turnout a decade after Trump descended that escalator spells the beginning of his end.

n April, the Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán lost power at last. His Italian counterpart and "Christian sister" Giorgia Meloni
misjudged a major referendum just before. Last month, two rightwingers flunked presidential elections: Flavio Bolsonaro in Brazil, Aleksandar Vučić in Serbia. Nigel Farage's Reform UK, which polled 31 per cent in 2025, some feat in a fragmented electorate, has since bled ten percentage points.
Whatever the Latin is for “fairly bad year” – annus horribilis is too strong – populism is living through one. The defeat of US Republicans on Tuesday is its culmination. Not one house of Congress, but both, fell to the Democrats in midterm elections. How did it come to this? In the end, Donald Trump, like lots of populists, forgot the economic bit of populism. Besides a liking for tariffs and a ceasefire in the war against Obamacare, it is hard to distinguish him from a laissez-faire Republican of yesteryear. When consumers were broadly content, this was a minor point. When inflation rose, it became an electoral liability.
Inflation is said to be fatal for incumbents. But Lula survived in Brazil. The UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham has gained in the polls. In 2026, the politicians that inflation really punishes are those who seem callous. Over the past year, as consumers wailed, Trump and his kin made over \$1bn in pre-tax profits, in part from the digital currencies sector. Almost half of 2024 Republican voters, never mind independents, went into the midterms citing White House “corruption, self-dealing and conflicts of interest” as a concern. Things that voters didn’t mind when inflation was low – that were laughed off as part of Maga’s raffish charm – now unhinge them.
Trump's foreign friends run into the same problem. Farage is under investigation over an undeclared gift of £5mn, which is a living wage even in London. Flavio? A money laundering probe. Orbán? Allegations of crony capitalism. The left isn't innocent but politicians of the right have such a blind spot for this stuff, for the resentment it causes in hard times, that terming them "populist" seems excessive flattery.
Even aside from the self-dealing, or suspicions thereof, there is the matter of economic policy. Maga faces two ways on this. It is a movement of “real people” but also bitcoin spivs, of paternalist government but also tech libertarianism, of the deindustrialised Midwest but also the low-tax sunbelt. Something, at some point, was going to make the internal contradictions untenable. Consumer inflation was it. That some of the price surge stems from Trump’s own war in Iran just adds to the poetry of the historical moment.
It doesn't help that populists so often choose silver-spoon leaders. Trump, like Flavio, is a fortunate son. Farage, like Boris Johnson, went to private school in a country where only about 6 per cent of people do that. If these men were economic leftists – “traitors to our class”, in Zhou Enlai’s supposed words – their privilege would be no issue. In fact, if inflation were 1.8 per cent, it would be no issue. But the privilege and the deregulating instincts and the rising consumer prices and the alleged self-enrichment? It makes them almost too easy to frame as out-of-touch. Notice that two of the most successful populists, Meloni and India’s Narendra Modi, really came from the masses they romanticise.

American populism can survive the midterms but in different form: less decadent and libertarian, less billion-
aire-smitten. Under whose leadership, though? Steve Bannon is an economic populist – an AI sceptic – but almost a decade has passed since he was a White House insider. JD Vance seems to understand that Republicans must recover the working-class spirit of 2016. The question is whether that most online of conservatives will ever master interaction with three-dimensional mammals. Trump's genius is to do and say extreme things without weirding people out. When his subordinates attempt it, you fear for the future of the movement.
Perhaps time would have ground Trump down, regardless of his policies. The populists who are polling best, such as the French and German ones, are those who have never governed. The rest have what a British cop might call “previous”. Flavio is tied to his old man’s regime. Farage, though he has never held ministerial office, co-authored Brexit, the UK’s governing meta-idea since 2016. Trump is on his second term, and ninth decade. A president’s last midterms aren’t meant to go well. It is just that, with more economic intervention, or just less feathering of the Trump nest, the result might have been mere defeat rather than total humiliation. He started a class war against elites a decade ago and never lived up to it.
The midterm results should not cheer liberals too much, and not just because Trump will command the world's mightiest armed forces for another 26 months. If it is true that economic grievances are what defeated him, then lots of other important issues didn't. The swing voters' reaction to him seems to go as follows. Attempted election subversion? Bad. Kremlin-abetting? Not OK. Higher prices at the gas pump? Now that is where we draw the line.
If people prioritise their household finances, that is right and natural. At some point, though, for constitutional democracy to survive, voters have to care about the rules of the game too. That it was economics rather than ethics that brought low this most transactional of men is fitting, and perhaps, in a sense, his last win.

s Republicans seek to learn lessons for their post-Donald Trump future, it is important for both the party and the conservative
movement to recognise that the distinctly Trumpian elements of the president's agenda have failed to achieve their objectives and to advance economic prosperity. Of the policies that have been motivated by populism and economic nationalism – marking a sharp departure from the traditional GOP consensus – the most prominent has been the trade war. Its two main goals were to increase manufacturing employment and reduce the trade deficit. Each of these goals is wrong-headed, and neither has been met.
In January 2017, as Trump's first term began, 8.5 per cent of employees worked in the manufacturing sector. In January of 2025, the start of Trump's current term, the share had fallen to 8 per cent, where it remained this September (the most recent month with available data).
Meanwhile, the goods trade deficit has grown larger, not smaller. It has nearly doubled since January 2017. While the deficit has narrowed since January 2025 because businesses rushed to import goods to get ahead of Trump's looming tariff increases, over the past year it grew by 55 per cent.
Trump's push for a sharp reduction in immigrant inflows to the US during his current term has been another signature nationalist-populist policy. The goal was presumably to boost the economic outcomes of native-born Americans. But, according to my calculations, employment rates for the native-born population have fallen since January 2025, while rates for the foreign-born have increased. Comparing September 2026 to September 2025 shows a similar trend, as does comparing economic outcomes among native and foreign-born
Americans aged 25 to 54 over that period. Nor have native-born workers seen their earnings grow faster than immigrants during Trump's current term.
At \$2tn, the budget deficit for 2026 is the largest outside a war or recession in US history. While the GOP's fiscal record leaves much to be desired, Trump's lack of concern about fiscal responsibility is a departure from the norm. Past Repub-
lican administrations have pursued – with and without success – cuts to social security and Medicare spending, the main drivers of projected structural deficits.
These failures have hurt the GOP's political fortunes. In an economy with high prices and above-target inflation, Trump's trade war was a political liability. Exit polls showed that nearly two-thirds of midterm voters think Trump's tariffs have hurt the economy.
And although Trump's success at securing the southern border is popular, his deportation and enforcement efforts have been more divisive. Meanwhile, his fiscal policy has put upward pressure on politically salient interest rates, including on home mortgage loans.
Trump's approach has shown a disregard for the rule of law and the principle of limited government. His willingness to weaponise the criminal justice system in order to bend the Federal Reserve to his will eroded a foundation of prosperity and made the US look like a banana republic. Taking equity stakes in private companies, notably Intel, is another threat.
The administration has also often appeared chaotic and ineffective. Although reducing government spending and increasing efficiency are worthy goals, Elon Musk's Doge effort amounted to very little. Similarly, Treasury secretary Scott Bessent's recent efforts to jawbone the bond market into delivering lower yields call into question the administration's competence. All of this contributed to Trump's low approval rating and voters' judgment at the ballot box.
There is still much to admire about Trump's economic programme, including his signature 2017 and 2025 business tax reforms, which will boost productivity growth by encouraging investment. His approach to AI advances has been appropriately guided by the view that the government should "do no harm". And he has encouraged domestic energy production, pushed to deregulate the economy and brought order to the southern border.
These elements of the president's agenda would have fit comfortably in a traditional GOP administration. The failed policies would not.
If Republicans want to keep the White House in 2028, they should look holistically at Trump's economic programme and separate the wheat from the chaff.

s Anthropic prepares to go public, setting in motion an unprecedented race for capital to finance the AI revolution, investors who
are considering buying a stake in this enormous venture should take a moment to think about the scale of rewards that are being handed out to employees and executives.
Most highly valued tech start-ups incur substantial expenses from these payments. Many defer those expenses until after they have joined the stock market.
When Anthropic released its amended listing document on Monday, it projected total unrecognised stock-based compensation expenses of approximately \$32bn – an unprecedented figure.
These massive projected stock-based expenses will probably climb higher. Anthropic disclosed that it has approved additional pre-IPO awards but has not specified the amount.
The scale here is unusual but the behaviour is not. My research shows that US unicorns – venture capital-backed start-ups valued at over \$1bn – that went public between 2014 and 2024 largely deferred recognition of sizeable stock-based compensation expenses until after their IPO. By doing so, they risked catching investors off guard when they released earnings for the quarter in which they went public. If the previously deferred compensation costs were significant, there was a greater risk that the stock market would react negatively.
Look at Uber. After the San Francisco ride-hailing company went public in May 2019, it reported \$3.6bn of previously deferred stock-based compensation expenses – something that contributed to a \$5.2bn net loss for the period. The company's share price fell after the earnings announcement.
Anthropic, like Uber, uses a type of equity award called double-trigger restricted stock units (RSUs) to attract and retain talented employees. These are equity awards that provide company shares to executives and employees once certain conditions are met, such as an IPO. Instead of receiving a large salary immediately, employees have the chance for an outsized payday if the start-up goes public or is acquired.
The liquidity-based trigger allows these companies to defer the compensation expenses until the IPO becomes probable. Companies typically justify deferral by saying that the IPO was not probable for any prior reporting period.
This is why Anthropic did not include the accumulated \$8.2bn in stock-based compensation expenses in its reported \$1.26bn operating loss for the nine months to 30 September.
For investors who buy into a company's publicly traded stock before heavy equity award expenses are reported as part of operating expenses, these under-reporting practices can be costly. My research shows that deferring stock-based compensation expenses of \$107mn or more (adjusted for inflation) until after an IPO is associated with a high risk of stock price decline relative to the market.
Expenses do not stop after the IPO either. Companies often intensify employee award activity ahead of a listing, meaning substantial compensation expenses will continue to impact financial results.
Investors in Anthropic stock need to be aware that the company will report massive operating expenses from its pre-IPO award activity this year and, in all likelihood, next year too.
Serious consideration should be given to reforming the accounting rules that permit deferral of stock-based compensation expenses until after an IPO. In order to afford greater protections to investors, start-ups should be pushed to be more transparent about the expenses they expect to report once they become public companies.

Soaring oil and gas prices propel flash estimate to $4\%$ for currency bloc
OLAF STORBECK — FRANKFURT
Eurozone inflation climbed to a three-year high of 4 per cent in October as surging oil and gas prices weighed on households' spending power.
The flash estimate published by Eurostat yesterday was up from 3.8 per cent in September and in line with economists' forecasts in a Reuters poll.
Annual energy inflation continued to rise to 20.8 per cent, the highest level since January 2023 and above the 18.9 per cent rate in September. October marked the eighth month in a row the annual inflation rate in the 21-country bloc was above the European Central Bank medium-term target of 2 per cent.
ECB president Christine Lagarde last week warned that a bigger and longer energy shock was “likely to drive up inflation and lower growth”. She signalled that policymakers stood ready to increase interest rates by a quarter point at their next meeting in December after keeping them on hold last week.
Annual core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, remained unchanged at 2.5 per cent, the figures released yesterday showed.
The closely watched figure for services inflation rose to 3.3 per cent from 3.2 per cent in September. The figure, a gauge of domestic price pressures, has remained well above the ECB's target for more than three years.
“Energy prices were front and centre” in October’s inflation rise, said Moody’s Analytics economist Kamil Kovar, who warned that the hit would continue in the coming months, when “lower wholesale oil and diesel prices will be more than compensated by higher gas and electricity prices”.
Kovar said he expected that the ECB would raise interest rates not only in December, but also “likely in March”.
Carsten Brzeski, global head of macro at ING, said: "Today's inflation numbers have brought the central bank one step closer to a December rate hike." He also pointed to "muted underlying inflationary pressure", which he saw as an argument that "the December hike could also be the last one".
Analysts at Pantheon Macroeconomics said an impending change of top figures at the ECB had introduced a “wild card” for next year’s policy outlook.
If Lagarde and executive board member Isabel Schnabel were replaced by dovish candidates, the governing council could end up “erring on the side of holding fire” on raising rates beyond 2.75 per cent, they said.
The ECB has already increased borrowing costs twice since the start of the
US-Iran war in February triggered a surge in oil and gas prices, raising its benchmark rate by a quarter point in June and again in September.
Worries over higher inflation and rising public debt triggered a surge in Eurozone borrowing costs in recent weeks, pushing yields of French 10-year government bonds above 5 per cent last month for the first time since 2002. They have since retreated slightly.
The euro, which had gained against the dollar since the US midterm election results, was little moved by the inflation figure. The single currency was up 0.2 per cent against the greenback by late afternoon in London, at \$1.122. Additional reporting by Ian Smith

Asian nation prioritises its relationship with Moscow amid strained Kyiv ties
DANIEL TUDOR — SEOUL
South Korea's President Lee Jae Myung was effusive as he welcomed home the crew of the container ship PanStar Acro from a voyage across the Arctic.
Hailing the crew's “courage and sense of responsibility” on “distant seas”, Lee pledged to “answer with unwavering action and open a new path for the Republic of Korea”.
European diplomats in Seoul were less enthused. Sailing the Northern Sea Route, which hugs the Russian Arctic coast, shaves 10 days off European journeys via the Suez Canal but requires extensive co-operation from Moscow.
The voyage, South Korea's first, which returned last month, was emblematic of what European officials see as a diplomatic and commercial tilt by Seoul towards Moscow, even as the Kremlin deepens its partnership with North Korea and continues its war in Ukraine.
Those concerns were heightened by reports last month that more than 176,000 tonnes of fuel, mostly diesel, were shipped from South Korea to Russia in July and August, including aboard tankers subject to UK and EU sanctions.
Seoul's relationship with Moscow has prompted some European diplomats to question whether South Korea – which they saw as a “like-minded” democracy, with shared economic and security interests – remains a reliable partner.
"[The South Koreans] aren't really 'like-minded'," said one Seoul-based European diplomat who requested anonymity. "The attitude is that the [Ukraine] war won't last for ever, and they want to get right back into business with Russia as soon as it's over."
European concerns over Seoul's attitude to Russia predate Lee's presidency. South Korea's lax enforcement of its export controls on computer numerical control (CNC) machines, which can be used to produce munitions, has been a particular source of frustration.
In February 2025, two Korean executives were convicted of illegally exporting CNC machines worth Won7.3bn (\$5.5mn) to Russia, but they received suspended one-year prison terms and the company was fined just Won40mn.
Some observers say those concerns have grown under Lee, who took office

in June 2025. Mason Richey, professor of international politics at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies in Seoul, said that South Korean-Russian relations had been “improving quietly” since last autumn.
In November 2025, the Institute for National Security Strategy, which is affiliated with Korea's National Intelligence Service, held a closed-door conference with the Russian International Affairs Council, a Kremlin-backed think-tank aimed at finding opportunities for political dialogue and “prospects for expanding economic co-operation”, according to the RIAC website.
In June, INSS president Kim Seongbae travelled to Moscow for a closed-door strategic dialogue with Russian counterparts, according to RIAC.
Last month, Lee appointed Song Young-gil, a former leader of his Democratic Party, as special adviser for peace diplomacy. Song, who also served as a presidential envoy to Russia, has long advocated for closer ties with Moscow, and was awarded Russia's Order of Friendship by President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin in 2013.
Richey said officials such as national security adviser Wi Sung-lac and those around foreign minister Cho Hyun appeared to be losing influence with Lee, while those such as Song are “the ones who seem to have the president’s ear on the Russia file”.
Russia's deputy foreign minister Andrey Rudenko last month said that Moscow had received “statements from South Korean authorities regarding their ambitions to normalise” relations once the Ukraine war was over, according to Russia’s state-owned Tass news agency.
In a statement sent to the FT, South Korea's foreign ministry said: "Concerns in some quarters that South Korea is leaning too heavily towards Russia are inconsistent with the facts.
"As a responsible member of the international community, the South Korean government supports and participates in global efforts aimed at ending the war in Ukraine and restoring peace."
A South Korean national security official denied exports of diesel, petrol and jet fuel to Russia, adding that the
'The attitude is that the [Ukraine] war won't last for ever, and they want to get right back into business with Russia as soon as it's over'
authorities were investigating whether destinations had been falsely declared.
Meanwhile, Seoul's relationship with Kyiv has deteriorated following a dispute over the disclosure in September that two North Korean prisoners of war had been transferred from Ukraine to South Korea.
Lee has accused Kyiv of violating a secrecy agreement over transfer and demanded an apology. Seoul last month recalled its ambassador to Kyiv, its first such move since 2008, while Korea's foreign ministry said it would withdraw additional embassy staff. Ukrainian officials have disputed the Korean account, calling it a “diplomatic misunderstanding”.
Kim Saeme of the Asan Institute for Policy Studies warned against over-emphasising a South Korean “tilt” towards Russia, arguing that Lee’s administration has “moved away from what was described as ‘values-based diplomacy’ and is pursuing a more pragmatic and interest-driven approach”.
She added that Seoul's approach to Moscow reflected a longstanding view of Russia as a powerful neighbour that it cannot afford to ignore or antagonise.
“South Korean foreign policy has historically been conceptualised through the framework of ‘four major powers’: the United States, China, Japan and Russia,” Kim said.
But she questioned the relevance of that legacy, arguing that contemporary relations with Moscow “must begin with the recognition that Russia is helping to strengthen North Korea’s military capabilities, which is increasing the security threat to South Korea itself”.
Ramón Pacheco Pardo at King's College London, meanwhile, noted that several European countries remain significant customers of Russian energy. France doubled its imports of Russian liquefied natural gas in September from the previous month to €446mn, according to the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air. "Europe doesn't have a unified position towards Russia," Pacheco Pardo said.
European leverage is also limited by the increasing importance of South Korea's defence industry, which has helped replenish European stockpiles drawn down to arm Ukraine. Poland alone has ordered more than \$18bn of Korean tanks, howitzers, fighter jets and rocket launchers since 2022.
European governments “still need weapons – precisely because of [the Ukraine] situation”, Richey said.
'Blocking statute'
SUZI RING — LONDON
LAURA DUBOIS — BRUSSELS
A senior official at the International Criminal Court urged the EU to immediately implement protections against sanctions imposed by the Trump administration, saying it was “unfair” the court and its providers are managing the burden alone.
ICC registrar Osvaldo Zavala Giler, who is overseeing the court's response to the sanctions, said the EU should activate a "blocking statute" allowing European companies to disregard the US extraterritorial sanctions.
"Our position is that we should do this as soon as possible," Zavala Giler told the FT. "It's an instrument that is re-asserting European sovereignty."
The US announced sweeping sanctions against the ICC last month in an escalation of Trump's campaign to dismantle what he calls an “anti-American tribunal”. The October sanctions order gave most companies 180 days to stop trading with The Hague-based war tribunal.
The blocking statute would allow European companies to not comply with US extraterritorial sanctions, meaning they could continue providing services to the court. However, EU countries and the European Commission have been reluctant to take any measures before the sanctions take full effect.
“What I think is unfair [is] . . . we are now in a situation where banks and other service providers are the ones that have to assess by themselves the risk of co-operating with the court or not, rather than having this done at the state level,” Zavala Giler said.
The European Commission said: “We continue to pursue diplomatic outreach, jointly with other state parties, with the objective to have the sanctions lifted. We stand ready to take any measures necessary to protect the court’s work.”
The ICC cut ties with its health insurance provider, Axa, last month in the face of looming sanctions over fears they would force the insurer to stop doing business with the court.
Announcing the sanctions last month, US secretary of state Marco Rubio said the aim was to find “a diplomatic solution” that addressed US “concerns” before the deadline expired, without specifying what that would involve.
EU countries have since said this “creates space for diplomacy, with a view to securing the prompt reversal of these measures”, according to conclusions agreed by EU leaders in mid-October at their last summit.
In late October, the Commission told companies to “continue providing services to the ICC as before, enabling the court to continue carrying out its mandate in full” while diplomatic negotiations were ongoing.
"Political reassurances, political support is very effective and it's important . . . but it needs to be matched with real legal and operational certainty," said Zavala Giler.
He said it was not clear what “solution” the US was looking for. The court has not engaged in any direct talks with the US in a bid to protect its independence, instead relying on the EU and states to advocate on its behalf.
Indonesia
A. ANANTHA LAKSHMI AND DIANA MARISKA — JAKARTA
Indonesia has deployed 20,000 soldiers to the streets of the capital and arrested three senior police officers as a scandal erupted over the alleged wiretapping of the country's president, already under pressure as economic woes mount.
Two senior police officers and President Prabowo Subianto's chief of staff — a former national chief of police — were arrested, according to Asep Safrudin, head of the police's Criminal Investigation Agency.
“[They] are suspected of illegally tapping the telephone numbers of the president of the Republic of Indonesia, state officials, political figures, media, mass organisation figures, NGOs and businessmen,” Asep said in a news conference late on Tuesday.
The scandal has sent shockwaves through Indonesia and has added to concerns about fraying ties with allies, as the president faces falling approval ratings, criticism of his signature policies and souring market sentiment.
Military officials said yesterday that more than 20,000 troops and personnel would be deployed in the capital Jakarta. Military spokesperson Muhammad Nas said the troop deployment was standard practice to maintain security and unity.
"This situation could weaken the ruling coalition as Prabowo's growing sense
of insecurity breeds mutual suspicion among coalition partners," said Nicky Fahrizal from the Jakarta-based Centre for Strategic and International Studies. "Political instability is bound to escalate."
Asep identified the suspects only by their initials, per Indonesian law enforcement practice, but officials have confirmed that they included Listyo Sigit Prabowo, who was made Prabowo's chief of staff last month. Listyo, who is not related to the president, was dismissed from that role yesterday.
Asep said the wiretap was conducted “non-procedurally” between 2025 and 2026, and the three suspects ordered the deletion of wiretapping files in October to cover their tracks.
The three suspects have been charged under the criminal code for unlawful practices threatening security and under the electronic information law for illegal wiretapping and unauthorised deletion of electronic data. The FT could not reach the suspects for comment, and they have not released any statements via their lawyers.
"We can consider this an act leading to treason . . . jeopardising the security of state interests, including endangering the safety of the head of state," said state secretary Prasetyo Hadi yesterday, though he added that their motivation remained unclear.
Listyo was appointed national chief of police in 2021 by the president's predecessor Joko Widodo, and the two have longstanding ties, with Listyo serving as police chief in the city of Solo when Widodo was mayor.
Corruption concerns
FABRICE DEPREZ — KYIV
PAOLA TAMMA — BRUSSELS
MARTON DUNAI — BUCHAREST
Ukraine is falling behind Moldova on its path to EU membership because of its sputtering efforts to root out corruption, the European Commission has said.
The two eastern neighbours applied to join the bloc in 2022, following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, and have advanced in tandem ever since.
But in its annual enlargement reports published yesterday, Brussels said Chişinău was on track to close membership talks by early 2028 while Kyiv would need another year and an “acceleration of the pace of reforms” to complete the process.
The Commission also said Montenegro could sign its accession treaty by the middle of next year. It would be the first new member since Croatia's 2013 accession, if approved by EU governments and the European parliament.
While praising Ukraine's efforts "in the face of most difficult circumstances brought by Russia's war of aggression", the Commission said Kyiv still needed to "demonstrate significant progress" in tackling corruption.
Ukraine's anti-corruption agencies have kept operating during the war and exposed schemes that forced President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to sack several ministers and senior officials last year.
Brussels has set up a “dedicated task force” to help Ukraine “urgently and significantly step up the pace of the rule of law reforms”. It also noted a recent acceleration of the “reform momentum” as Ukraine’s parliament passed a series of bills demanded by the EU to unlock crucial financial support.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy fired several ministers over corruption last year
Katarína Mathernová, EU ambassador to Ukraine, said the decoupling from Moldova was not meant to play down the progress Kyiv had made so far. "I think the fact that Ukraine keeps up the pace [of reforms] in the fifth year of the war and in the middle of this incredible escalation since late summer is actually remarkable in itself," she said.
Zelenskyy last month warned that decoupling the two countries would be “morally wrong”, adding that Ukraine was preventing Russia from causing “trouble” in Moldova’s breakaway region of Transnistria.
Ukraine's financing for coming years is also under threat. The country faces a €70bn gap next year, of which the Commission vowed to cover two-thirds, which could include issuing joint debt.
The Commission said Moldova's goal of closing accession talks by early 2028 was "ambitious but achievable".
Moldova's pro-EU president, Maia Sandu, said she was "pleased" by the Commission's report, which "reflects Moldova's steady progress".

Treasury
Healey promises that rules to ringfence ‘preventative’ measures will save money
GEORGE PARKER AND CHRIS SMYTH
LONDON
JENNIFER WILLIAMS — MANCHESTER
Chancellor John Healey has promised a major overhaul of public spending controls, vowing that new rules to ringfence “preventative” programmes would save money further down the line.
Healey said next year's spending review would mark "a big long-term shift" by protecting investment that stops problems escalating with the creation of a new category of spending.
"For too long, governments have spent more dealing with the consequences of problems rather than getting ahead of them," Healey told the FT. "This leaves people worse off and taxpayers picking up a bigger bill."
He added: “In this way we can deliver better public services while getting better value for every pound we spend.”
Treasury officials have been sceptical about the idea of a so-called preventative departmental expenditure limit, or PDEL. But Healey believes the PDEL would help reduce overall spending, with some Treasury insiders describing the move as “quietly radical”.
It comes ahead of next year's spending review – unlikely to happen until autumn – which will put Healey under pressure to find £11bn a year for higher defence spending and billions of pounds more to fund stretched public services.
Yvette Cooper, health secretary, yesterday called for large chunks of the £200bn NHS budget to be left untouched in the spending review after Healey introduced the new ringfence for pre-emptive spending.
"I do think a lot of our treatment services have an impact in terms of saving money elsewhere," the health secretary said, speaking to the Commons health committee. "Mental health is a really good example of that."
Other areas that could be covered include spending to reduce youth offending and homelessness, education and efforts to tackle violence against women and children.
One Healey ally said: “This is not some sneaky way to spend more money.” They added that “tough decisions” would be made to cut money in other areas “downstream” of where the preventative spending was being allocated.
Anita Charlesworth, at the King's Fund think-tank, who pushed for the adoption of PDEL, rejected the scepticism among Treasury officials who have argued that classifying preventative spending will be difficult.
"The focus should be on activities whose principal purpose is prevention," she said, which would capture about 5.6 per cent of health spending.
"The same approach could be applied across public services: in children's social care, for example, early-help and family-support services can be distinguished from acute intervention," Charlesworth added.
The idea of PDEL was promoted by the Demos think-tank as a way of “injecting long-termism into public spending”.
Prime Minister Andy Burnham placed a significant focus on prevention during his later years as mayor of Greater Manchester.
Last year's 10-year NHS plan agreed to make the city region a national model in the field, giving it more flexibility over funding pots to create neighbourhood “Live Well” hubs bringing together GPs, employment support, housing advice, social care, police and voluntary services.
Accolade
MARIA CRAWFORD
Edmund Richardson has won the 2026 Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction for Alexander: God, King, Man, a historical biography of Alexander the Great that draws on cutting-edge technology to retell the story of one of the ancient world's most notorious leaders.
Richardson, a British professor of classics at Durham University, based the book on more than a decade of research into Alexander's nearly 2,400-year-old story. This included translations of contemporaneous accounts in 12 languages and computer simulation techniques used to recreate details of his military campaigns, from the night sky on the date of a given battle to the volume of food and water needed to fuel his vast armies.
“You feel like you’re there on the battlefield,” said chair of judges Kirsty Lang. “It’s blockbuster history with page-turning narrative pull, a cracking cinematic story about the ancient world involving a masterful assembly of research materials alongside exceptional literary craft.”
Alexander, aged 20, inherited the “bankrupt” kingdom of Macedon and, in desperation, went on to lead his army east. Richardson traces his ascent to the status of hero and then god — as well as the levels of cruelty and destruction that accompanied it.
Lang highlighted the crucial role of Richardson's academic work in underpinning the book, which is published by Bloomsbury in the UK and St Martin's Press in the US.
"The humanities in this country have been underfunded," Lang said. "This is an example of the kind of amazing research that is happening in our universities, and it's important."
The other books on the shortlist were London Falling by previous Bailie Gifford winner Patrick Radden Keefe; Baldwin: A Love Story by Nicholas Boggs; Days of Love and Rage: A Story of Revolution by Anand Gopal; The Great Dictator: A Life of Barbara Cartland by Matthew Sweet; and The Traveller: The Revolutionary Life of George Forster and his Search for Humanity by Andrea Wulf.

Veeraswamy
in court battle
to stay on
Regent Street

Veeraswamy has occupied its premises for 100 years. Above, Martin Bennewith, Manita Panjabi and Ranjit Mathrani deliver a petition to Buckingham Palace in February
The UK's oldest Indian restaurant will go to court today in an effort to retain its place on London's Regent Street, arguing that its landlord would have shown greater respect had it served more traditionally British cuisine.
Veeraswamy, which has one Michelin star, has occupied its first-floor premises in the capital's premier shopping zone for 100 years.
The Crown Estate informed it in 2024 that its lease would not be renewed, owing to the need to carry out a “comprehensive refurbishment” of Victory House.
The building has empty offices upstairs following a flood.
Ranjit Mathrani, a former investment banker who chairs Veeraswamy's owner, MW Eat, said the landlord had said it would be unsafe to undertake renovations with the restaurant still in place, and that in future it could receive higher rents from office tenants.
“We have done everything to meet their concerns,” said Mathrani. “It is obvious that they do not appear to have sufficient regard for Veeraswamy and its tradition, its background, its role, and its culinary heritage. Would they actually have taken the same stance had it been a cuisine with which they were more familiar?
"Would they have done that to Gordon Ramsay? No."
The Crown Estate said: “We strongly refute any suggestion that The Crown Estate prefers particular types of cuisine. We are proud to have a diverse dining offer across our West End portfolio, reflecting the diversity of London itself.”
The body, which manages the monarchy's property portfolio and whose profits are passed to the government, wants to convert the restaurant space into a reception area.
It said that the end of Veeraswamy's lease was "not a decision we've taken lightly".
MW Eat had offered to pay the same rents the estate would have collected from office tenants, or to purchase a 35-year lease for the whole building and undertake the refurbishment works itself.
However, the estate said such proposals did not meet “our responsibilities as stewards of this heritage-listed building, our legal obligations and our responsibilities to manage public money”.
It has offered to help the restaurant relocate to new premises and offered financial compensation.
Mathrani said the estate offered compensation of £500,000, 20 per cent more than the statutory amount. That was a fraction of the £5mn required for such a move, he said.
No alternative locations had been offered, he added, and the restaurant wanted to stay anyway.
Under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, tenants in commercial buildings generally have the right to remain in their premises and assume new leases when their existing ones expire, unless landlords can cite at least one of seven grounds.
In this case, the Crown Estate is arguing the lease should not be renewed on the grounds that access is needed to carry out works, which MW Eat will contest.
Over the past two years, Veeraswamy has collected more than 20,000 signatures for a petition that it presented to Buckingham Palace. King Charles III has not so far intervened.
A cadre of British chefs including Michel Roux Jr and Tom Aikens published a letter last year calling on the estate to “act responsibly”, and that turning the restaurant into offices would be a “profound loss”.
MW Eat was bought by Canadian financial group Fairfax last year.

Rates pressure
VALENTINA ROMEI, SAM FLEMING AND DELPHINE STRAUSS — LONDON
Rising energy prices will push inflation to its highest pace in three years around the start of next year, according to economists surveyed by the FT, adding to pressure on the Bank of England to raise interest rates ahead of the central bank's interest rate decision today.
Inflation is expected to peak at an average of 4.4 per cent, the survey of 12 economists that was conducted this week found, with most expecting that price growth will reach its highest level in the first quarter of next year.
All but one respondent expected inflation to peak above 4.1 per cent, while five forecast a peak of between 4.5 and 5 per cent.
It comes as the BoE prepares to set out its own inflation and growth outlook at midday today after a meeting that is widely expected to agree a quarter-point increase in its key interest rate.
The economists' forecasts are significantly higher than the latest projections from the Office for Budget Responsibility, published last week, which show inflation peaking at 3.8 per cent in the first quarter of next year.
But the OBR's economic forecasts were based on market prices for oil and gas in mid-August, before a re-escalation in the Middle East war drove them sharply up. Yesterday oil prices fell following a report of diplomatic progress between the US and Iran.
"The inflation outlook is becoming increasingly uncomfortable for the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee," said Ellie Henderson, economist at Investec and one of those surveyed, who expects inflation to peak at 4.4 per cent next February.
She said that Ofgem's energy price cap being on track to rise by more than 25 per cent in January, alongside indirect effects of the oil price shock following the Iran war, was likely to feed through to the prices of other goods.
At the beginning of this year, the BoE said it believed it was on track to meet its official inflation target of 2 per cent, paving the way for rate reductions. Instead, the outbreak of the war in Iran in late February led to skyrocketing energy prices and rising inflation.
Household energy bills are set to jump nearly £470 in January to about £2,200 a year for a typical household, according to EDF Energy estimates.
Inflation has already risen to 3.5 per cent in September, its highest level in almost a year. Inflation at 4.4 per cent would be the fastest since October 2023, when it hit 4.6 per cent.
In July, the central bank forecast inflation would peak at about 3.2 per cent in the final quarter of 2026. Robert Wood, economist at the consultancy Pantheon Macroeconomics, said the outlook had changed for the worse since then.
“Inflation will peak around 5 per cent based on recent energy prices and run above 3 per cent all of next year,” he predicted.
OBR officials acknowledged last week that energy prices were now “substantially higher” than those on which its economic forecasts were based and that its inflation forecast for early 2027 would have been “somewhat higher” based on current market pricing.

Critical resources
PETER FOSTER — LONDON
The UK is “dangerously exposed” to the risk of China cutting off access to critical raw materials despite more than a decade of warnings about Beijing’s willingness to exploit its dominance of the industry, MPs have warned.
More than 15 years after China cut off supplies of rare earth metals to Japan after a spying row, successive British governments have failed to cut reliance on China for critical minerals used in defence, auto and green industries, a report for the business, innovation, science and trade committee said.
Committee chair Liam Byrne said that failure to build resilience and diversify supplies of the materials away from Beijing continued to pose significant risks to the UK's future security.
“Critical minerals are the alpha of the new economy. We cannot re-arm Britain, build AI or deliver net zero unless we secure the minerals these technologies depend on. Sixteen years after China first weaponised its chokehold over rare earths, Britain remains dangerously exposed,” he said.
China continues to process more than 80 per cent of the world's rare earth metals alongside other key materials, such as graphite and manganese, that are critical to the production of batteries used in the net zero transition.
The report noted that concerns about China's chokehold on rare earths rose to prominence as early as 2010 after Japan detained a Chinese trawler captain. Beijing promptly blocked supplies of some key rare earths to Japan, causing a 26-fold increase in prices.

Last summer, Beijing again cut off some rare earth metal supplies to Europe and the US following the start of US President Donald Trump's trade war, bringing several auto plants to the brink suspending production.
The committee called for a targeted “precision de-risking” of the UK’s critical mineral supply chains to help counter the threat of economic coercion.
To combat the challenges, the committee set out a five-point plan, including improving access to finance for criti-

cal mineral processing, maximising domestic mining and creating a “buyers’ club” among like-minded allies to share costs of building new mines and smelters that can cost £3bn each.
“We’re never going to eliminate Chinese minerals from our supply chains,” Byrne said. “That’s why we need a new Critical Minerals Finance Facility with the financial firepower to invest in new mines, processing plants and recycling, working with allies to share the costs.”
The government set out a 10-year critical minerals strategy a year ago that promised to grow domestic production and forge international partnerships in order to diversify supply chains.
It cited innovative new projects to lift supplies, such as research from Queen's University Belfast to find new ways to recycle permanent magnets used in wind turbines and electric vehicles.
The committee's report follows another it released this week that criticised the government over policymaking on how to handle China.
It described the UK's approach to the country as being characterised by "reactivity, inconsistency and opacity". Refiner Solvay strikes deal page 17
JENNIFER WILLIAMS — MANCHESTER growth in every postcode", including through "re-industrialisation".
When the developer Tritax Big Box first sought to build part of a vast freight hub on Wigan's greenbelt, the Labour-led council was supportive.
Intermodal Logistics Park (ILP) North would be a future source of “substantial high-quality employment”, said Wigan council in its draft planning blueprint last year.
This summer it had a sudden change of heart. “This is not economic development,” Labour councillor Jenny Gregory told colleagues in September as the authority voted to formally reject the site’s removal from the greenbelt. “It’s the industrialisation of an area that cannot absorb it.”
The loss of almost two dozen councillors to Reform UK in May's local elections, combined with vocal local opposition to greenfield development, has prompted an about-face in the borough where Andy Burnham is now an MP.
Wigan, a former industrial powerhouse that sits between Manchester and Liverpool, had long prioritised logistics because of its proximity to the M6 and M62. But in August its leadership scrapped all four of the major employment sites from its draft local plan, featuring distribution, manufacturing, tech space and housing.
Rob Ford, professor of politics at the University of Manchester, said the situation captured the policy trade-offs facing Burnham, who as prime minister has promised devolution but also “good
“It’s also a microcosm of the political problem he inherited,” Ford added. Labour lost hundreds of councillors to Reform and the Greens last year, destabilising the party’s power base and leaving Labour councillors fearful of next May’s elections.
Anxiety over industrial development has amplified in Wigan since one imposing warehousing scheme drew national attention last year for its proximity to residential housing.
The sheds at PLP-operated Astley Business Park, which are up to 18 metres in height that cover a space equivalent to about five football pitches, were likened to “cruise liners”.
Labour lost all but one of the candidates it fielded to Reform in Wigan, where a third of seats were up for grabs.
About 500,000 sq m of employment space and housing have now been dumped from its proposed 13-year local plan, which will form the framework for planning applications.
Gregory, whose ward is most affected by the Tritax plan, told Labour colleagues last month that any planning application from the developer would be treated as “hostile”.
But the proposal has national significance, including for Burnham. ILP North would comprise 767,000 sq m of logistics and associated employment space, focused on a new rail hub intended to free up freight movement across the north-west.

As Greater Manchester mayor, Burnham requested about £200mn from the Treasury to move rail freight from Manchester to the new hub.
“That money [would be] spent at ILP North,” he told the FT in March last year. The plan would also free up space for the redevelopment of Manchester United’s Old Trafford stadium.
But the funding was refused and Burnham then expressed “major concerns” about the scale of ILP North.
ILP North would span two mayoral-ties, at a time when his government has put devolution at the heart of its agenda.

About two-thirds of it would sit in St Helens as part of the Liverpool City Region freeport, on the largest employment site available. Liverpool's mayor Steve Rotheram, a close friend of Burnham, has championed the scheme.
The rest would spill over into fields in the village of Lowton, Wigan, about a mile from the prime minister's home.
Gareth Edwards, a local resident who has campaigned against the scheme, said Lowton's roads were already swamped by heavy goods vehicles thundering through from the nearby M6.
“It really is on our doorstep,” said Edwards of the Tritax proposals, adding that residents would be “shocked” by the scale of what is proposed. “It’s good that Wigan has sat up and reacted.”
Burnham, who met residents to hear their concerns about a year ago, wrote to the local authorities in January, expressing “significant concerns” about ILP North’s impact on local communities.
The council's original draft local plan, published in 2025, prioritised “new high-quality employment sites” that take advantage of the borough's location on the M6, the East Lancashire Road into Manchester and a planned “growth

corridor" between Wigan and Bolton. Its subsequent U-turn has left investors weighing up the tension between local, mayoral and national policy.
Two of the four employment schemes pulled from the plan are owned by northern development giant Peel. This summer Wigan council also objected to the group's master plan for Gibfield Park, a greenfield development that has been in train for more than a decade.
The 45,000 sq m mixed-use scheme is part of the Northfold growth corridor, which has already been allocated funding from Burnham's Good Growth Fund. Peel did not respond to requests for comment.
Dane Anderton, Wigan council's Labour cabinet member for economic development and regeneration, said the local authority was focused on “the right type of growth in the right places”.
Tritax said its planned hub “would strengthen rail freight capacity between the north-west, UK ports and wider markets”.
The saga reflects the balancing act facing Burnham between national growth ambitions and a volatile political landscape leading into next May's local elections, said Ford.


OLIVER BARNES — NEW YORK
CVS Health is breaking up its \$117bn healthcare empire, separating its retail pharmacy chain from its insurance business in what will rank as one of the largest corporate splits of all time.
The move unwinds two decades of megadeals that transformed CVS from a drugstore chain – starting life as a single outlet in Massachusetts – into a vertically integrated healthcare conglomerate spanning an insurer, pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) and retail pharmacy.
CVS yesterday confirmed it planned to spin off its retail pharmacy division, whose roughly 9,000 stores are projected to generate a third of the group's ket value stood at \$116.9bn at Tuesday's close, more than double its value at its nadir. Its shares were down 12 per cent during afternoon trading yesterday.
CVS is fighting states' legislation to ban companies from owning PBMs and pharmacies. Lawmakers in Arkansas and Tennessee were the first two states to introduce such measures.
Tennessee's state legislature this year passed the Fair Rx Act banning ownership of pharmacies by companies which run both a PBM and insurer. CVS and its rival Cigna have sued to try to block the measure, which is set to take effect in 2028. In Arkansas, a judge blocked the law, introduced in April last year, pending further review.
\$420bn in revenue this year, as a separate listed company known as CVS Pharmacy. The separation would complete by the first half of 2028, it added.
David Joyner, CVS chief executive and chair, will run the remaining slimmed-down healthcare solutions business. It will focus on Caremark, the pharmacy benefit manager bought in a \$27bn takeover in 2007, and health insurer Aetna, acquired for \$78bn in 2018.
The break-up comes as the sector faces political pressure challenging the combined ownership of pharmacies and PBMs, which manage prescription benefits for insurers and employers.
Shares in CVS have bounced back under Joyner, who took over in 2024, driven by a turnaround at its Aetna insurance unit. Its stock sank to a 10-year low in December 2024. CVS's mar-
These changes have gained broad bipartisan support in Washington. In the US Senate, Democrat Elizabeth Warren and Republican Josh Hawley reintroduced legislation to prohibit PBM and pharmacy co-ownership.
"Our history is defined by proactively evolving to stay ahead of what's next in healthcare, and in today's environment, that means delivering more affordability, greater access and a simpler experience," said Joyner in a statement.
CVS has led the charge as the wider health insurance industry emerges from a period of financial strain. Cost controls have lifted margins at the health insurance unit just as the US government also increased payment rates for Medicare insurance plans. But CVS drugstores, which have lagged behind the wider business, posted a 2 per cent slide in revenues in the three months to the end of September.
In September 2024, CVS's struggles drew the attention of activist hedge fund Glenview Capital, which took a 1 per cent stake in the business, prompting the removal of Karen Lynch as chief executive and the addition of four directors to the board.
Cyber attack Dutch retailer Ahold Delhaize cuts forecasts after hack puts systems offline

AARON KIRCHFELD — LONDON LAURA DUBOIS — BRUSSELS
Ahold Delhaize, one of Europe's biggest supermarket chains, has cut its financial forecasts after suffering a cyber attack last month as retailers across the continent come under siege from hackers.
The Dutch supermarket chain said yesterday that it expected the attack to reduce its net sales by between €200mn and €250mn and to lower its operating profit by between €75mn and €100mn in the fourth quarter.
Ahold Delhaize was hit by a cyber attack that affected most of its brands across Europe and the US.
Stores in the Netherlands and Belgium were particularly affected and online shopping at various Ahold Delhaize brands was disrupted due to “the malicious actions of others”, it said.
"We proactively took certain systems offline, including our brands"
websites and apps, as a precautionary measure to protect them," the group wrote.
Frans Muller, president and chief executive of Ahold Delhaize, said in a statement: "While most of the disruption was contained within two weeks, work continues to fully restore our normal operations."
He added: “Cyber threats are an increasingly harsh reality of doing business today and moments like these remind us not only of our shared vulnerabilities but also of the strength of our relationships and the importance of standing together.”
In a separate attack this week, freezers at dozens of supermarkets across Europe, including Ahold Delhaize, suddenly overheated after hackers broke into refrigeration systems for a second time in a matter of weeks, raising the alarm over the continent's food security.
The latest attack, which ruined food worth millions of euros, hit stores in Belgium, Sweden, Finland, Ireland and Estonia.
In Belgium, about 40 Delhaize shops were affected. It came weeks after hundreds of French supermarkets suffered similar attacks.
On Tuesday, France's national blood service, the EFS, said it was also affected with temperatures in three of its cold-storage rooms rising dramatically. The EFS said the problem was identified quickly and none of the contents of the rooms, which store bags of plasma, were compromised.
Nobody has claimed responsibility for the attacks. Following the French supermarket attacks, experts said the hackers might be anyone from disaffected western teenagers to a state-backed adversary with a strategic goal with some researchers suggesting links to Russia.

\$420bn in revenue this year, as a separate listed company known as CVS Pharmacy. The separation would complete by the first half of 2028, it added.
David Joyner, CVS chief executive and chair, will run the remaining slimmed-down healthcare solutions business. It will focus on Caremark, the pharmacy benefit manager bought in a \$27bn takeover in 2007, and health insurer Aetna, acquired for \$78bn in 2018.
The break-up comes as the sector faces political pressure challenging the combined ownership of pharmacies and PBMs, which manage prescription benefits for insurers and employers.
Shares in CVS have bounced back under Joyner, who took over in 2024, driven by a turnaround at its Aetna insurance unit. Its stock sank to a 10-year low in December 2024. CVS's mar-
These changes have gained broad bipartisan support in Washington. In the US Senate, Democrat Elizabeth Warren and Republican Josh Hawley reintroduced legislation to prohibit PBM and pharmacy co-ownership.
"Our history is defined by proactively evolving to stay ahead of what's next in healthcare, and in today's environment, that means delivering more affordability, greater access and a simpler experience," said Joyner in a statement.
CVS has led the charge as the wider health insurance industry emerges from a period of financial strain. Cost controls have lifted margins at the health insurance unit just as the US government also increased payment rates for Medicare insurance plans. But CVS drugstores, which have lagged behind the wider business, posted a 2 per cent slide in revenues in the three months to the end of September.
In September 2024, CVS's struggles drew the attention of activist hedge fund Glenview Capital, which took a 1 per cent stake in the business, prompting the removal of Karen Lynch as chief executive and the addition of four directors to the board.

Ahold Delhaize, one of Europe's biggest supermarket chains, has cut its financial forecasts after suffering a cyber attack last month as retailers across the continent come under siege from hackers.
The Dutch supermarket chain said yesterday that it expected the attack to reduce its net sales by between €200mn and €250mn and to lower its operating profit by between €75mn and €100mn in the fourth quarter.
Ahold Delhaize was hit by a cyber attack that affected most of its brands across Europe and the US.
Stores in the Netherlands and Belgium were particularly affected and online shopping at various Ahold Delhaize brands was disrupted due to “the malicious actions of others”, it said.
"We proactively took certain systems offline, including our brands"
websites and apps, as a precautionary measure to protect them," the group wrote.
Frans Muller, president and chief executive of Ahold Delhaize, said in a statement: "While most of the disruption was contained within two weeks, work continues to fully restore our normal operations."

One of Meta's top executives has said that impending “population collapse” means AI-driven productivity gains are “desperately” needed to support society, as tech leaders seek to persuade a sceptical public that the powerful technology will benefit their lives.
Alex Schultz, Facebook parent company's chief data officer, told the FT's Future of AI summit yesterday: “The world as a whole isn't thinking hard enough about things like population collapse . . . We desperately need more productivity,” he said. “How are we going to care for elderly people? How are we going to put ourselves in a place where we can actually make the most of the number of people on Earth?”
The global population is expected to peak in 2064, while the working population is set to shrink more quickly due to longer lifespans and falling birth rates.
Schultz's comments come as Meta races to compete with OpenAI, Anthropic and Google, having spent billions of dollars on its AI ambitions.
Chief executive Mark Zuckerberg told the FT last month that its new model, Muse Wonder, had caught up with rivals to reach the “frontier”, while its consumer-focused Muse agent has been downloaded millions of times since its launch in September.
These developments have come amid broader concerns about the sustainability of the spending spree behind the AI boom, with Meta announcing plans to raise an additional \$95bn to fuel its spending last week.
Extolling the productivity benefits of AI, Schultz said AI was already “accelerating” software engineers’ jobs and saving “a tonne of time” for lawyers.
But he acknowledged that not all AI use had led to increased productivity, with some workers “burning tokens with no obvious value”. Within his own team, “less than half” were using the technology effectively, he added.
Productivity gains were improving with the accessibility of more recent models, Schultz said, adding that he was “pretty slow on the uptake” until OpenClaw popularised so-called vibe coding at the start of the year.
However, he pushed back against fears about the technology leading to widespread unemployment, saying that “having tools doesn’t eliminate jobs, it just changes them”.

BUSINESS INSIGHT

n the bright blue morning sky, high above the desert dunes in China's north-western Gansu, a small white dot emerged, drawing shrieks of
delight from the small group of people gathered below. Moments later, the stainless-steel rocket came into view, its landing gear splayed out as it approached the recovery site. "My heart skipped a beat," said one onlooker.
The August launch and return to land of the Zhuque-3 Y2 signified that Beijing-based LandSpace had joined the likes of Elon Musk's SpaceX and Jeff Bezos-owned Blue Origin as private companies in successfully recovering a rocket booster after an orbital launch.
LandSpace is on track to reach another milestone early next year when it is expected to list shares on Shanghai's Star Market, China's Nasdaq alternative for domestic tech champions.
The story of LandSpace and its founder Zhang Changwu highlights how the ruling Chinese Communist Party is able to leverage the private sector — and the brilliant minds of the country's scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs — to achieve national strategic aims at a speed most countries would envy.
In the early 2010s, Beijing grew ever more frustrated over slow progress by state-owned enterprises in their ability to compete with American groups in the commercial space sector. It needed the industry to develop and deploy satellites for modern data and communication services.
In 2014, Xi Jinping's administration signalled it would open the space industry to private investment, spurring the creation of hundreds of start-ups and prompting provinces across the country to roll out state support.
Zhang, a bespectacled graduate of the elite Tsinghua University who had also worked at HSBC and Banco Santander, was among those who seized the moment, founding LandSpace in June in 2015. Investors were immediately attracted by not just the broader opportunity of China's space sector but also the eager Zhang's conviction to look beyond established technologies of solid-fuelled rockets to those powered by newer fuels such as liquid oxygen methane.
Blaine Curcio, a veteran consultant and analyst covering China's space sector, said equally important was Beijing's allowing the flow of talent from the state to the pri-
vate sector. "That was a very important, watershed moment for commercial space: this idea that top people from SOEs are allowed to be hired by commercial companies," he said.
Now, looking back at LandSpace's journey so far, Curcio says the trajectory from founding to regular successful launches is comparable with that of SpaceX. "In 11 years, they've made a lot more progress than European firms and most American firms," he said.
A July report by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a US think-tank, found that since being opened to private investment, China's commercial space industry has grown to
600 companies across launch services and satellite communications, up from a few dozen in 2014.
At it stands, LandSpace and SpaceX are not in immediate competition, as neither is allowed in the other's home market. However, they are important proxies in the high-stakes US-China battle to dominate space technology.
Experts caution that China's state-led approach can create economic issues, including excessive investments and supply chain duplications.
But Dan Wang, a China director at Eurasia, a consultancy, said Beijing's industrial strategy in sectors such as commercial space is better understood as “state co-ordination” rather than “state direction”. The state will maintain a close watch on the groups via companies' internal party committees, board seats and shareholdings by large state-linked groups.
“It is not that the state wants to manage the company, but there are additional roles that the state imposes on them,” Wang added. It is also common for company executives to take up state advisory roles, as Zhang did in 2025, joining Beijing’s Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference.
Mark Greeven, a Shenzhen-based professor of innovation and strategy at the International Institute for Management Development, points out LandSpace “fits” the Chinese model, where Beijing tries to set the conditions for strategic industries by allowing space for “entrepreneurs to swarm around opportunities” and build out the ecosystem and supply chain for new companies to prosper.
“Entrepreneurial freedom and hyper-competition is essential for the model to work,” he says.

Litigator hired to chase equity payouts as firm prepares for wind-down
SUJEET INDAP, KAYE WIGGINS AND OLIVER BARNES — NEW YORK SUZI RING — LONDON
Former partners at Weil, Gotshal & Manges have hired legal counsel to represent them in the law firm's impending wind-down amid a rush by current and past practitioners to recover part of the value of their stakes in the business.
A group of about 10 former partners, including lawyers who left in the past five years but none who departed in the wave of exits over recent months, is working with Peter Wang, a litigator at Foley & Lardner, according to people familiar with the matter.
Wang previously represented more than 100 lawyers in the 2012 bankruptcy of Dewey LeBoeuf, a major New York-based corporate firm that succumbed to a heavy debt load.
Wang has in recent days reached out to Weil's outside counsel at Davis Polk & Wardwell.
The move is an early indication of the legal battles likely to flow from the demise of Weil, which announced last week that it would pursue “an orderly wind-down” of its operations after its management determined that not enough of its revenue-generating lawyers remained after a series of defections.
Los Angeles-based law firm Gibson Dunn is in talks to hire as many as 120 lawyers from Weil in the US and London, in one of the biggest lateral moves ever in the legal industry.
More than 20 partners are among the group planning to move, including leaders of Weil's private funds groups in the US and UK, according to people familiar with the matter.
The team includes Andrew Chizzik, Weil's head of private funds in New York, and the co-heads of Weil's London private funds group, James Bromley and James Sargent, the people said.
The lawyers span fund structuring, regulation, tax and finance. About 12 of the partners are expected to join in the US.
Legal industry publication law.com reported last week that a near 40-strong funds team was set to move to Gibson Dunn in London, which is part of the 120 in talks.
Partners will vote in the coming days to formally wind down Weil, which has
1,200 lawyers and \$2bn in annual revenue.
Law firms are typically owned by their partners – the senior practitioners who lead the businesses and share in their profits.
Partners who own equity in Weil – including some retired and departed lawyers who have yet to be repaid in full for their stakes – would only expect payouts if the remaining amounts collected from clients exceeded those owed by the firm on its office leases and to its vendors.
Total partner equity worth tens or hundreds of millions of dollars could be at risk of being wiped out in the wind-down.
Separately, several current and former lawyers told the FT they were frustrated with Weil's longtime executive partner Barry Wolf and wanted to probe how the Wall Street firm was managed in its final months. They said that a lawsuit alleging breach of fiduciary duty against the Weil management committee remained a possibility.
“Knives are out,” said one of the Weil lawyers. “There are real dollars at stake and there is a total lack of trust.”
The FT previously reported that Weil was in the process of appointing a “wind-down” committee to be composed of some remaining Weil lawyers, likely to include Wolf, as well as external restructuring experts.
The firm has hired consulting firm AlixPartners to work with its internal finance team on managing Weil's books during the shutdown effort.
Weil, Wolf and Wang did not respond to requests for comment. Gibson Dunn declined to comment.

Consultancy published report littered with inaccuracies but says human error was to blame
ELIZABETH BRATTON — LONDON
Accenture co-authored a report about artificial intelligence that was littered with false citations, incorrectly attributed research and case studies that appear not to exist, prompting accusations the consultancy published information marred by AI hallucinations.
A paper about the potential of AI in African agriculture, published by the IT consulting firm and a Spanish university, contained several factual errors and 15 citations with errors such as incorrect titles or author names, according to an investigation by AI detection business GPTZero.
Edward Tian, co-founder of GPTZero, said the errors, which were checked by the FT, were “overwhelmingly consistent with the patterns of AI hallucinations rather than the occasional inaccuracies associated with human research”.
Accenture, which was named in September as an independent evaluator to assess the safety of Anthropic's AI models, said there was “no evidence” that the errors were the result of AI hallucination but then subsequently added that it would make corrections to the publication.
Accenture said: “Our review indicates that the errors identified in the report were the result of human error. There is no evidence to support the conclusion that they were generated through AI hallucination.”
The consultancy declined to say how it reached this conclusion or provide further details of how it concluded the errors were made.
It said the corrected report would be re-released, adding: “We will always embrace the opportunity to strengthen the quality of our reports.”
The November 2025 report – titled “Leapfrogging Development: Unlocking Africa’s Potential in Global Value Chains with Artificial Intelligence” – was published by Accenture and IE University. Two of its four authors and both of its editors are staff from Accenture, which has revamped its business to make heavy use of AI and advise clients on how to adopt the technology.
The paper, published on Accenture's website, made two references to technology hosted by an organisation called
Accenture's office in New York. The consultancy made claims relating to cocoa production in Ecuador, below Angus Mordant/Bloomberg; Philippe Lissac/Godong/Universal Images Group/Getty Images
SAATN – identified as both the “Southern Africa AgriTech Network” and the “Southern African Agriculture Transformation Network”. Neither network appears to exist.
It also claimed that predictive AI had “significantly improved” the detection of swollen shoot disease among cocoa plants, reaching 99 per cent accuracy in Colombia and Ecuador. The source cited for this claim, however, was an article focused on west Africa without any mention of these South American countries, where there is minimal evidence to suggest the disease is present.

Other errors included incorrectly stating the rankings of Ghana and Uganda in a 2023 Oxford AI readiness index, providing a broken web link as citation.
Several citation-related errors were identified in the report. Tian said that “human citation errors tend to be small and isolated”, such as incorrect years, formatting or a broken link. “By contrast, LLMs generate references that sound entirely credible but do not exist. This results in fabricated paper titles, plausible-sounding but fake organisations, and invented case studies stitched to real actors,” he said.
The Accenture paper stated that “youth- and women-led digital platforms have achieved high uptake” in Colombia and Honduras “when embedded in [an] inclusive governance structure”. Neither of the citations provided for this claim appears to exist.
The 49-page report also contains web links that do not follow through to the source article cited. One citation misspelt the name of the author and listed two authors who were not named as writers on the source paper.
Accenture has heavily encouraged its staff to use AI – developing training courses and making the use of AI a crite-
'Human citation errors tend to be small and isolated. By contrast, LLMs generate references that sound entirely credible but do not exist'
rion for deciding promotions – at a time when investors are watching to see if the technology will improve revenue per employee. A round of lay-offs last year was concentrated among staff who could not be retrained to make use of the technology.
AI detection tools, including GPTZero's, have been criticised for wrongly flagging human-written content as AI-generated in some cases.
GPTZero said it had manually checked each of the errors flagged by its tool in the Accenture paper and made additional checks with open-source intelligence. It has previously identified AI hallucinations in research by PwC, KPMG and EY, with the latter two retracting reports following its findings.
IE University said: “The authors of the report approach their work and analysis with the utmost rigour. Should any errors be confirmed, they will make the necessary corrections to the report and strengthen the processes in place to help prevent similar issues from occurring in the future.” It added that the authors of the report were “reviewing the sources and data underlying the report to understand how these discrepancies may have arisen”.

Oracle has scrapped a multibillion-dollar chip leasing contract with Tencent after bowing to pressure from the Trump administration, in a sign of rising tensions for US cloud providers serving Chinese AI companies.
The Californian group led by Larry Ellison, the billionaire backer of US President Donald Trump, signed a five-year lease with the leading Chinese tech giant to provide access to as many as 100,000 advanced AI chips across a host of data centres in south-east Asia.
The contract, worth an estimated \$7bn and first reported by the FT in September, was Tencent's largest overseas leasing deal. It would have given the group access to chips unavailable for use in China due to curbs from Washington and Beijing.
US officials approached Oracle to raise concerns about the Tencent deal, according to two people familiar with the matter. Tencent also received visits from senior officials in Guangdong, where the group is based, who asked the tech giant to support domestic Chinese chips, according to one of the people.
The deal has since been cancelled, the
people added. Oracle, Tencent and the White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The incident shows the growing difficulties for leading US and Chinese companies in developing AI as their respective nations seek to become the pre-eminent technological superpower.
A shortage of domestic supply and tightening American export controls have led Chinese tech groups to seek more computing capacity overseas. Such lease deals could also offer access to Nvidia's cutting-edge processors not available in China. Chinese tech giants and frontier AI labs are tapping into these resources, especially for the training of their models, as domestic chips cannot perform such tasks yet.
While such overseas leasing deals are allowed under existing rules, US companies have faced growing pressure to cut the exposure to Chinese customers. The FT reported on Tuesday that Nvidia has told cloud computing clients they must now sell at least 51 per cent of their services to non-Chinese companies.
While Tencent is catching up with leasing deals, ByteDance and Alibaba remain the biggest clients of data centres in south-east Asia.
Oracle is a major supplier to Byte-Dance in Asia with multiple data centres in Malaysia. The company also hosted US customer data for the Chinese group's social media platform TikTok before being part of a consortium that late last year acquired the app's US operations.
Demand from Chinese AI groups in south-east Asia has intensified amid tightening export controls that prevent Nvidia's advanced chips from entering China via an intermediate location. This has led to increased prices, longer terms and higher upfront payments for these data centre lease agreements.

Uber said yesterday that it planned to deploy more than 2,000 robotaxis next year as it sought to reassure investors about its autonomous bet at a time when its core business is being buffeted by driver shortages and higher fuel prices.
The San Francisco-based company told investors that revenues in its mobility business were about \$7.5bn in the three months to September 30, about \$200mn below analysts' expectations. Group revenues were about \$100mn higher than forecast at \$14.8bn.
Operating profit of \$1.4bn was sharply below expectations of \$2.2bn after the company set aside \$484mn for potential legal and tax settlements.
Chief executive Dara Khosrowshahi said higher fuel costs stemming from the Middle East war had hit growth, and that Uber expected the situation to worsen in the fourth quarter given "recent escalations during the busy travel season".
He added: “In multiple international markets elevated fuel costs, tighter local labour conditions and competition for drivers constrained our ability to fully serve consumer demand.”
Khosrowshahi said that Uber was taking steps to give incentives to drivers through improved fees and sign-up bonuses. The company is also facing intensifying competition in the ride-hailing market from autonomous platforms such as Alphabet's Waymo, with shares down 17 per cent this year.
Khosrowshahi said Uber was on track to have about 700 fully driverless vehicles on its platform this year, rising to more than 2,000 by the end of 2027.
It has pledged to spend more than \$10bn expanding its robotaxi network and aims to deploy more than 120,000 driverless vehicles over time.
The company operates limited services in nine cities globally, including
Austin, Atlanta and London, and plans to add as many as 15 this year.
Rival Waymo has about 4,000 vehicles on the road, mostly in the US. The Alphabet-owned business aims to have more than 8,000 cars on the road by the end of this year, according to people familiar with the matter.
Uber said gross bookings — a measure of customer spending across the business — rose 20 per cent year on year to \$59.8bn in the third quarter, in line with analysts' estimates.
In September Uber announced plans to cut about a tenth of its global workforce, or about 3,300 roles, to free up cash for investments including its robotaxi business.
Uber has also experienced significant changes in management in the past year. President Jill Hazelbaker is joining OpenAI next month, while global head of delivery Susan Anderson left in June. Sarfraz Maredia, head of autonomy, is scheduled to leave this month.

KANA INAGAKI — LONDON
BMW has said it expects the internal combustion engine to survive in China for at least a decade, even as western carmakers struggle to keep up with the pace of transition to electric vehicles in the world's largest car market.
Collapsing sales of petrol vehicles in China have prompted a series of downgrades from European carmakers in recent quarters including BMW, which yesterday issued its second profit warning since June.
The market share of combustion engine vehicles has fallen below 35 per cent in China amid rising fuel prices and strong EV launches from domestic carmakers.
“We think the internal combustion engine market will be alive in specific price segments,” BMW’s chief financial officer Walter Mertl said yesterday. “It will continue to do so up to the next decade. We are convinced of this.”
Despite its bullish outlook, BMW will accelerate the introduction of EV models based on its “Neue Klasse” software-controlled platform to reboot sales in China. The group will export vehicles made in China to other parts of Asia.
"We are firmly convinced that we will be very successful" in the Chinese EV market, Mertl added. BMW said it
BMW, which issued its second profit warning since June yesterday, said it would accelerate its restructuring

would accelerate its restructuring measures and phase out EV models based on older battery technology.
Operating profit fell 30 per cent to €1.6bn in the July to September quarter compared with a year earlier, slightly higher than analyst expectations of €1.5bn. Revenue fell 6 per cent to €30bn as sales in China tumbled by a quarter year on year.
“Current developments in our industry call for decisiveness and swift implementation,” said chief executive Milan Nedeljković. “We will therefore specifically intensify and accelerate structural measures.”
BMW expects a core operating margin of minus 0.5 per cent to 0.5 per cent compared with its earlier forecast of between 1 and 3 per cent. In the third quarter, its margin for the core automotive segment stood at 3.4 per cent.
BMW said it would accelerate a reduction in management functions. In late September, the carmaker outlined plans to cut more than 100 managers on top of reducing about 8,000 back-office jobs, or 5 per cent of its workforce. “There’s very high demand for the restructuring programme,” Nedeljković said. “This momentum should not get lost.”
BMW shares rose 5.5 per cent yesterday and are down 35 per cent this year.

London debt trader's fund went from start-up to Mayfair mainstay in just 4 years but is now fighting to hold on to its bets

ROBERT SMITH, EUAN HEALY, COSTAS MOURSELAS AND ORTENCA ALIAJ LONDON
After four years of remarkable returns and rampant growth, Arini Capital Management's charismatic founder Hamza Lemssouguer decided this year that his hedge fund's 6,400-square-foot Mayfair office was no longer fit for purpose.
The 36-year-old trader's penchant for concentrated and self-described “contrarian” bets on the debt of struggling companies had propelled Arini from a \$1bn hedge fund start-up to a \$22bn investment firm diversified across both public and private credit.
In need of a new home to accommodate its grand ambitions, Arini swooped on the sprawling former London office of \$1tn private capital giant Apollo Global Management in June, agreeing to lease all eight floors and the basement of the 40,000-square-foot building a stone's throw from Mayfair's Hanover Square.
But in the few short months since striking the trophy office deal, the swashbuckling trading style that fuelled Lemssouguer's rise has ensnared his firm in a brutal sell-off in the riskiest reaches of corporate debt markets.
Arini's \$7bn flagship fund is now nursing losses for the year of more than 26 per cent with some of its largest positions in the debt of companies that are teetering on the brink of restructuring or even bankruptcy.
Inundated with margin calls from banks that lent money to increase its firepower, Arini raised new capital for its main fund last month and has begun dumping large blocks of bonds in struggling companies.
A person close to Arini insisted that it was “business as usual” for the firm, which regularly trades in and out of positions and is deploying the new money for several purposes.
The firm has also told investors that it has previously rebounded from “periods of significant mark-to-market volatility”.
However, many rival traders smell blood. One hedge fund manager, who has bought large blocks of debt from Arini, estimated that the firm had sold positions with a face value of more than \$2bn in chaotic trading over the past week.
Others have placed short bets against

\- one estimated that Arini had sold positions with a face value of over \$2bn
Arini's biggest holdings, which are widely known due to their scale, exacerbating the pressure on its portfolio.
"Everyone is shorting his positions," said one bond fund manager at a large asset manager.
The downturn marks a brutal reckoning for Lemssouguer, who had previously defied scepticism from some credit market veterans about his young age and audacious trading style to build one of Europe's most successful new hedge funds.
Having risen to become one of Credit Suisse's most profitable traders while still in his late twenties, Lemssouguer eschewed an offer to run money for Ken
Griffin's Citadel hedge fund in 2020 and established Arini the following year — christening his firm after the tribe of parrot that the Moroccan-born trader famously breeds.
Shortly after it began trading in January 2022, Arini's so-called master fund started placing big bets on defaults across Europe remaining low by slicing and dicing baskets of derivatives that reference corporate debt.
Arini has often held the riskiest “equity tranche” of the iTraxx Crossover index, which tracks the credit default swaps (CDS) of 75 junk-rated European companies, juicing its returns but putting it at risk of serious losses from just a few defaults.

trade in publicly traded credit markets that are supposedly liquid, the size of many of its positions – boosted through leverage from the banks that serve as its prime brokers – makes them hard to sell in times of stress.
Complicating things further, Arini has banded together with other bondholders to negotiate restructuring deals in many of its biggest positions.
Members of these groups are often restricted from trading in and out of a company's debt as they are privy to private information from these talks.
Sales can be possible either through “big boy letters”, which acknowledge that the seller may have more information than the buyer, or by simply offloading the debt to another member of the bondholder group.
These restructuring deals also often require bondholders to lend more money to gain a favourable outcome, meaning that staying the course would require Arini to put up fresh capital.
In some instances, Arini had bought the majority or even all of certain bonds, having last year bought the entirety of a £598mn bond issued by long-struggling British online retailer The Very Group.
Bank trading desks have sought out buyers for The Very Group bonds in recent weeks, although the person close to Arini said the firm was not actively looking to sell further debt of the retailer after last selling a portion of the bonds in August.
However, Arini has traded out of other large holdings in the past week according to people familiar with the trades, including positions in Blackstone-backed theme park group Merlin Entertainments and US technology companies Claritev and Sabre.
Arini has also offloaded more complex positions in the CDS market, according to people familiar with the matter.
As its problems grow, Arini is still open to raising further money for its flagship hedge fund strategy, having initially secured \$1.5bn of new commitments last month, with \$425mn deployed at the start of October.
The firm has forged close relationships with several powerful Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds with Arini chief executive Younes Belcadi having previously served on the executive committee of Qatar Investment Authority.
“Hamza definitely still has a following there,” said one rival distressed debt fund manager.
But as traders swap gossip in anonymous chat rooms about the travails of a firm many of them now dub the "London bird", Arini's rivals are on tenterhooks over how severe its losses were in October – with initial performance estimates due to be shared with investors in the coming days.
Big profits at the firm's main hedge fund, which gained 27 per cent in 2023, 21 per cent in 2024 and 10 per cent last year, enabled Arini to raise billions of dollars of new capital in recent years across other strategies such as private credit and asset-backed debt.
Since Arini last updated its investors earlier in the month, Apollo-backed telecoms firm Brightspeed – where Arini holds a roughly \$2bn position concentrated in its riskier tiers of debt – has begun planning for a potential Chapter 11 bankruptcy, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal.
Earlier this year, Lemssouguer established a family office, Jersey-based LIO Limited, to oversee his growing personal wealth while setting up a charitable foundation with his wife focused on “education, wildlife conservation and local community empowerment across South America and Africa”.
Some rival traders believe that the company's lower-ranking debt could be wiped out entirely in such a scenario, fuelling intense speculation around how severe a markdown Arini will have to take on the position.

FLORIAN MÜLLER — FRANKFURT
Heraeus systematically understated the concentration of precious metals in materials it processed for customers, an independent investigation has found, widening a crisis at one of the world's biggest platinum refiners.
In a practice described by the law firm conducting the probe as “legally highly questionable”, the German group is alleged to have lowered its test results for 450 customers worldwide over more than a decade, reducing the cash or refined metal due to them after processing.
Heraeus has set aside €170mn to cover the potential fallout from the findings, which emerged during a wider investigation into alleged misconduct at the group.
The FT reported this year that the company had set aside €460mn over allegations it had unlawfully retained metal left in its equipment during processing, and that prosecutors were investigating 16 current and former Heraeus employees on suspicion of fraud and embezzlement.
Following settlements, Heraeus still has provisions of €300mn, including the €170mn booked in its 2025 accounts for the findings of the new investigation by CMS Hasche Sigle.
CMS, which did not respond to a request for comment, uncovered the billing issues while investigating whistleblower complaints about the other irregularities at Heraeus.
In June last year it told the company's management that the lack of contractual transparency for customers was "legally highly questionable", according to documents seen by the FT.
"The external investigation has been completed and its findings were handed over to prosecutors," said Heraeus chief executive Frank Stietz.
The practice of understating precious metals content ran from 2015 until the end of last year, with deductions generally below 1 per cent, according to Stietz. They were intended as a safeguard against variations between customers' test results and Heraeus' own measurements, which determined the final value owed.
Heraeus plans to negotiate individual settlements. Potential compensation for the 450 affected customers, representing fewer than half of the division's clients during the period, ranges from a few thousand euros a year for some to millions accumulated over a decade for others, according to the company.
"The deductions were not sufficiently transparent in some of our customer contracts," Stietz said, adding that they also "varied in ways that are difficult to justify scientifically".
"We are proactively approaching our customers, and discussions have so far been constructive," he added. "We have not lost any customer relationships."
Before 2015, Heraeus employees manually reduced the precious metal content in test results based on subjective judgments recorded in extensive Excel spreadsheets, without scientific justification or automated controls, according to three people familiar with the matter.
After that practice was uncovered internally around 2015, Heraeus replaced it with a statistically based system known as “Risk Mitigation” that was considered legally defensible by external lawyers from Clifford Chance, according to the people.

The refiner is alleged to have manipulated metals tests — Michael Bauer/dpa/Alamy
Clifford Chance declined to comment.
The new system used predefined tolerance ranges for individual customers and metals. Deductions were automated for a handful of major customers but continued to be applied manually for other clients.
CMS had earlier found that Heraeus's former management had “perpetuated” the potential illicit handling of production leftovers for years while fostering a “culture of silence”.
Former chief executive Jan Rinnert left the company days before Heraeus flagged the matter to authorities last year and is among the suspects in the ongoing criminal probe, according to people familiar with the matter. Rinnert did not respond to a request for comment.
The shortcomings continued into the first months of Stietz's tenure. “We are working intensively to strengthen our compliance culture, including setting the tone from the top,” Stietz said.

VC firm prioritises Silicon Valley in setback to UK's ambition to be base for AI
TIM BRADSHAW AND IVAN LEVINGSTON
Prominent technology investor Sequoia Capital is closing its European headquarters in London in a setback to the UK's ambitions to become a significant base for the booming AI industry.
Sequoia announced the closure, which follows a similar retreat from China and India, in a social media post yesterday.
"We simply don't see the need for a local presence" in Europe, the venture capital firm said. “We believe that Europe will continue to produce outlier founders and companies, and that we can continue to provide world-class support from our home base in the Bay Area.”
The international retreat marks another period of upheaval at a firm best known for lucrative bets on Apple, Google, OpenAI and SpaceX, after the tumultuous departure of former managing partner Roelof Botha a year ago.
After opening outposts in China, India and Europe over the past two decades, Sequoia has now in effect exited all overseas markets to refocus on Silicon Valley. It opened its UK office in 2020 during the pandemic-era tech boom.
Its former Chinese and Indian divisions now operate independently as HongShan and Peak XV Partners, respectively.
Sequoia's retreat from Europe follows a similar move by its Silicon Valley neighbour Andreessen Horowitz, which closed its London office last year after less than two years. Sequoia said it would continue to invest in European start-ups from its San Francisco office.
Nevertheless, the departures are a blow to Britain's ambitions to position itself prominently in the rapidly growing AI industry, which is dominated by the US and China.
Sequoia's four London-based partners were given the option to relocate to the
US to stay with the firm. Three of the four opted not to move, including Luciana Lixandru, who co-led Sequoia's early-stage investment business globally.
They will continue working with existing portfolio groups but will not make new investments with Sequoia.
"When given the opportunity to move to San Francisco, I chose to stay here and focus on this wonderful, imperfect ecosystem," Lixandru said in a social media post.
Another Sequoia partner in Europe, Matt Miller, had already left the firm and launched his own fund last year.
Sequoia opened its office in London amid a broader push by US investment companies looking for new opportunities abroad.
However, European technology start-ups still lag far behind their US counterparts in terms of their ability to raise capital, especially from local investors.
Despite the dominance of the US and China, London-based AI start-ups such as ElevenLabs, Ineffable Intelligence and Isomorphic Labs have still benefited from an increase in venture funding.
Sequoia's investments in Europe have included Swedish buy-now, pay-later pioneer Klarna, German fintech Trade Republic, French accounting start-up Pennylane and German defence tech firm Stark.

LAITH AL-KHALAF — LONDON
Raman Bhatia is preparing to stand down from his role as chief executive of Starling Bank after just two years in the role as the UK digital bank struggles with slowing growth.
Bhatia has privately told the group's board that he no longer wants to run the fintech, according to three people familiar with the matter.
The board had stepped up succession planning in response, the people added. The exit of Bhatia, who was named chief executive in March 2024, would come at a pivotal time for Starling, which has been grappling with weakening growth and a sluggish valuation.
Bhatia took up the role after the bank's founder and former chief executive Anne Boden clashed with investors over its ailing valuation growth.
Boden, a former Allied Irish Bank executive, founded Starling in 2014 as one of a crop of digital-only challenger banks. After a decade in which Starling had struggled to deliver the kind of valuation growth achieved by rivals such as Monzo and Revolut, Boden stepped down.
Last month it emerged that Boden had sold the last of her stake at a valuation of £1.7bn. The neobank was planning for a secondary share sale at a valuation of £4bn last year, the FT previously reported.
Starling's revenues slid 6 per cent to £887mn in the year to March, while pretax profits dropped 3 per cent to £217mn as lower Bank of England base rates weighed on interest income.
Bhatia joined Starling from the energy company Ovo and had previously led the digital bank for HSBC's retail banking and wealth management business in the UK and Europe.
Starling has been hamstrung by restrictions placed on it in 2021 by the Financial Conduct Authority due to its poor financial-crime controls. These curbs prevented Starling from opening new accounts for high-risk customers. Three years later the FCA accused the bank of operating with “shockingly lax” controls and fined it £29mn.
Bhatia said at the company's full-year results in May that Starling was in the process of exiting these restrictions.

Starling Bank declined to comment.

A SoftBank-backed agricultural drone start-up wants every farmer to “have their own robot” as it touts its pilotless crop sprayers as the answer to a dwindling workforce and rising temperatures.
XAG, the world's second-largest agricultural drone maker by revenue behind Chinese compatriot DJI, has released a series of drones with docking stations that autonomously clean, recharge, refill and plan the spraying routes of vehicles.
Justin Gong, senior vice-president of XAG, told the FT that labour shortages and an ageing workforce were the biggest issues facing Chinese farms, but many of them could not rely on time-pressed drone pilots to spray fields.
The advent of more extreme weather caused by climate change has sharpened the need for automated smart farms, he added.
“Every farmer in the future will have their own robot,” he said. “It’s going to be revolutionary because we think pilots are the biggest resistance to the drone industry right now.”
By the end of last year, China had issued 415,500 drone operator licences, up 68 per cent from the year before. While the number of pilots is growing, state media have reported that high demand has left some sectors grappling with shortages.
Pilots were incentivised to spray as quickly as possible before moving on to the next farm, said Gong. Many were also reluctant to travel to remote areas.
Automation in farming is also being driven by rapid labour force shrinkage. "When [AI companies] talk about valuation or market scale, they talk about how many people you can replace," said Gong. "We are the other side: how many people you will lose in the next five years — that is the market size."
The UN has forecast that China's working-age population, which peaked at 1bn in the 2010s, could shrink by nearly two-thirds by the end of the century. A decades-long rush of rural migrants to factories in cities has put farms at the sharp end of the demographic crisis.
Gong estimated 12mn people moved from rural to urban areas each year, which meant China would need 3mn drones in the next three years. To cover all arable land, the country would need as many as 12mn drones, he said.
Sun Xi, secretary-general of the Global Summit on Sustainable Agriculture, an industry group, said agricultural drone usage was “very mature” in China and had government support, but smaller farms with limited capital and technical knowhow would struggle to adapt.
"In the end you have to look at costs," he said, adding that farmers would only adopt technology if it was cheaper than traditional methods.
XAG sells its drones, vehicles and farm sensors to customers in nearly 70 countries including the US, Brazil and a number of African and south-east Asian nations.
Kay Wackwitz, chief executive of research group Drone Industry Insights, said although DJI had grown its share of the agricultural drone market rapidly, XAG's easy-to-use systems gave them an edge with less tech-savvy farmers.
“Lowering the entry barrier is very, very important in this sector,” he said. “That, I think, is what XAG understood masterfully.”
The company, founded in 2007 as a consumer hobby brand, is preparing to list in Hong Kong. It was valued at about \$1.5bn in a 2023 funding round, according to an estimate from Caplight. SoftBank holds a 12.9 per cent stake.
Gong said farms outside China could require 5mn to 10mn drones in the next decade to meet pressing labour crunches.
Overall, the threat of climate change had softened the attitudes of even the most traditional farmers to new technologies such as drones, he said.
“Technology plus weather plus labour shortage, it’s all become very complex . . . to the farmers and they have a lot of pressure.”

DANIEL THOMAS — LONDON
European rare earths refiner Solvay has struck a deal with an Australian company that will allow it to increase supplies for crucial magnet production outside China, calling it an “important step” in diversifying global supply chains.
The Belgian chemicals group said yesterday it had signed a long-term agreement with Viridis Mining and Minerals, which will supply its rare earths operations in La Rochelle, France, from an upcoming Brazilian mine. Shipments to Solvay are expected to start in 2028.
Competition for non-Chinese rare earths supply could rise further as Beijing and Washington negotiate a further extension of a trade truce beyond January. The Pentagon has said it will stop buying magnets and other critical parts sourced from China in January.
Solvay's plant at La Rochelle is one of the largest rare earth separation and purification facilities outside China. Its products go into the permanent magnets needed for electric vehicles, renewable energy, advanced electronics and defence and medical applications.
Philippe Kehren, chief executive of Solvay, said that “customers and policymakers, not only in Europe, also in the US, in Japan” are pushing to find new sources of rare earths crucial for electrification and defence uses.
“This is clearly an important step towards this diversification,” he said. China controls mining and refining globally because of its mineral resources and investment in refining and magnet production.
The deal includes “certain price floors”, Solvay said, which would support Viridis if rare earths prices fell. The US government put in place price floors for Californian company MP Materials and Australian producer Lynas Corp, although this is not common in supply agreements.
Kehren said the Viridis deal would help the long-term future of its site in La Rochelle, which has been in production for more than 75 years but only last year added a production line that will contribute to European rare earths magnet manufacturing.
It also expanded heavy rare earths processing this year with a further investment of up to €20mn. The feedstock to come from Viridis includes neodymium and praseodymium, so-called light rare earths, and heavy rare earths dysprosium and terbium.
Rafael Moreno, chief executive of Viridis, said the company had been “in deep discussions with the Koreans, the Japanese, Europe, the US” about rare earths from its Colossus mine in Brazil.
“We’ve had a lot of different government groups come through our facility in Brazil,” he said. “There’s not that many good rare earth mining projects out there. There’s only really three non-Chinese [producing mines] at the moment.”
Moreno said the deal with Solvay would also help to secure financing for the development of Viridis. He said the company was in talks with European banks about a funding package that should be finalised this year.
"The European Union has also been quite instrumental in looking to support us," he said. "And we're lucky that they have also cascaded that support to a lot of the European banks."

VERITY RATCLIFFE — LONDON
Qatar's state-owned energy company is on track to become the world's biggest buyer of US liquefied natural gas by early next decade as war in the Middle East curtails the Gulf nation's exports and pushes it to hunt for new sources of supply.
QatarEnergy signed two agreements late last month that increase the amount of US LNG it will have available to sell to its international customers by 7mn tonnes a year.
Combined with its share of production from the Golden Pass project in Texas, in which it holds a 70 per cent stake, QatarEnergy is on track to control 23.7mn tonnes per year from the US by 2033, making it the biggest US LNG buyer according to research firm Wood Mackenzie.
None of the LNG will end up in Qatar, where the cost of producing gas remains among the cheapest in the world. Instead, it will be resold and shipped to countries that buy liquefied gas from abroad to produce electricity and fuel industry, avoiding the Strait of Hormuz chokepoint.
The shift highlights the extent to which exports from the Gulf nation, once the world's biggest supplier of LNG, have been affected by the US-Israeli war with Iran.
"The expansion of their global portfolio is part of an effort to address the perception that they were overly dependent on their system in Qatar, by building a sizeable supply portfolio outside of the Middle East," said Jason Feer, global head of business intelligence at energy and shipping broker Poten & Partners.
This will help the group rebuild its reputation as a reliable supplier that before the war had never missed a shipment, he said, adding the company was likely to do two or three more deals in the US and possibly others elsewhere. Qatari LNG exports have fallen to less than a third of their usual level this year as Iranian attacks on shipping have sharply reduced the number of carriers passing through the strait – Qatar's only route to customers outside the Gulf.
Shipments of LNG from the Middle East have been more affected than oil as there are no pipelines connecting export plants to ones outside the Gulf. It is also harder to transfer LNG than oil between ships, limiting the amount of liquefied gas that can be shuttled through the strait.

of war at the end of February. Its main buyers – mostly in Asia – were left hunting around for alternative supplies.
The latest supply deals “strengthen our ability to serve customers across the globe”, said QatarEnergy chief executive Saad al-Kaabi at a signing ceremony last week.
The newly signed contracts will give QatarEnergy access to US LNG from 2030 and 2031 and will therefore do little to help its customers facing current supply disruptions in the Middle East. However, it could provide a buffer against potential disruption to Qatari exports in the future.

There was a perception ‘they were overly dependent on their system in Qatar’
"The ability to market a geographically diverse supply portfolio alongside its own production will provide reassurance to QatarEnergy's customer base," said Wood Mackenzie.
Qatar was overtaken as the world's biggest LNG supplier in 2023 by the US, which has made massive investments in export capacity. The Gulf nation has since faced the challenge of maintaining its influence in a market that it once dominated.

One way it has sought to do so is by expanding its trading business. In 2020 QatarEnergy launched a trading desk, and last year it traded more than 20mn tonnes, according to Wood Mackenzie.
Buying LNG from the nation that usurped it also helps Qatar achieve its second main objective, which is to build a global gas business, said Feer.

China has stepped up its defence of its stock market as Beijing tries to bolster flagging investor sentiment towards the technology sector with funds associated with its so-called “national team” of state-backed banks experiencing large inflows.
Net inflows into nine exchange traded funds commonly used by Beijing to support the market hit \$11.5bn on Tuesday, the second-highest daily amount on record, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
An unusually large proportion of this latest round of state-backed buying was of ETFs tracking China's two main tech indices, Shanghai's Star 50 index and Shenzhen's ChiNext.
The two tech indices jumped 9.9 per cent and 6.4 per cent, respectively, yesterday while the broad benchmark CSI 300 gained 2.3 per cent.
On Tuesday, inflows into ChinaAMC's Star 50 ETF hit \$1.7bn, the second highest on record after July's support measures. Those for E Fund's ChiNext ETF hit \$1.4bn, its third-largest on record.
“Clearly there is a regime shift from the previous state-backed ETF buying,” said Song Zhe, a senior investment specialist at BNP Paribas Asset Management. “In the past, the majority of the inflow would be in the CSI 300.”
China's stock market, and in particular its tech-related sub-indices, has suffered heavy selling pressure since July.
The CSI 300 is down more than 11 per cent this year and the Star 50 – which at its peak was up more than 60 per cent for the year – is also in the red.
Wall Street's S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 benchmarks are both up double digits.
Heavy selling by China's national team at the start of the year weighed on the index and mystified investors convinced that Beijing was keen to promote a steadily rising stock market.
However, the national team pumped money into the Star 50 index in July, buying close to \$9bn of equities, in an attempt to boost market sentiment ahead of CXMT's blockbuster Shanghai initial public offering – after a global rout in memory stocks spread to China.
"The national team thinks ChiNext and Star Board are crucial and represent the future of China," Song said.
The price action yesterday spilled over into some of the Chinese AI labs listed in Hong Kong, with Z.AI and MiniMax jumping 9.6 per cent and 7.5 per cent, respectively.
The FT reported on Tuesday that new listings and share offerings had been suspended in mainland markets as part of the government's efforts to support market valuations.
MORAL MONEY
Simon Mundy

he creation of the Cali Fund in November 2024 was hailed by the UN as a “historic decision of global importance”, which could
raise billions of dollars from big corporations to protect biodiversity.
So far, it's received almost nothing. Is the idea fatally flawed or might it yet fly?
Two years ago in the Colombian city of Cali, global governments agreed on a plan to raise big sums of money from large companies to finance environmental protection.
Contributions to the new Cali Fund would come from businesses in sectors, such as pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, that make use of “digital sequence information” – genetic data uploaded by researchers on to free public databases.
The idea was that companies ought to make a fair contribution to protect the natural world from which they'd derived financial gain.
The agreement, sealed at the UN's biennial biodiversity summit in November 2024, stated that large companies in relevant sectors "should" stump up 0.1 per cent of their annual revenue or
1 per cent of their profits. If they all did so, according to a subsequent UN estimate, the fund would receive \$3.65bn per year.
The fund was duly set up and declared open for contributions within a few months. To date, it has received just five donations from a handful of smaller businesses — amounting to a grand total of \$10,588.
The Cali Fund is “on life support”, said Siva Thambisetty, an associate professor of law at the London School of Economics who has written extensively on this area. “There is much more at stake here than just this fund. This is really about whether we can make good on global commitments.”
So far, not a single big global company has paid into the fund. Campaign groups have accused them of “biopiracy”, exploiting genetic resources harvested mainly from nature-rich developing nations while refusing to share the spoils.
Yet, multinationals have an incentive to back this initiative, insisted Till Voss, who has been leading policy work around it for German pharmaceutical and biotech group Bayer.
Companies like his are confronted with an emerging patchwork of national rules around the use of genetic data, he said, presenting a legal minefield that was creating an increasingly heavy compliance burden – particularly because it was often not clear which country can lay claim to a particular piece of genetic data.
If a company could be exempted from such claims by contributing to the Cali Fund, Voss added, that would be an attractive option.
Countries have not yet agreed, however, that Cali Fund contributions should forestall demands for payment under national laws.
Further legal risk, Voss said, comes with a continuing lack of clarity on exactly how the funds will be used. "As publicly listed companies, we need to know where the money will end up."
This year's UN biodiversity summit in Armenia's capital of Yerevan, which ended in the small hours of Saturday morning after a marathon final day, made only limited progress in addressing these and other outstanding questions around the Cali Fund, which were mostly shunted to the next summit to be held in 2028.

The fund was set up at in Cali, Colombia, in 2024 — Joaquin Sarmiento/AFP/Getty Images
Thambisetty argued that corporate lobbying was part of the reason for this with officials spending too much time addressing industry concerns rather than focusing on the core work of getting the fund off the ground.
The Cali Fund's embarrassingly weak start makes plain that simply putting
moral pressure on corporations won't deliver the finance needed to save the planet.
A key question now, said Juliette Landry, senior research fellow at think-tank IDDRI, is whether governments will take policy actions to force or incentivise companies to pay into the Cali Fund.
A major obstacle to this, she noted, was concerns about losing out to the US, the only UN member state that's not a party to the UN biodiversity convention.
In the EU, for example – already in a panic about its economic competitiveness – imposing a new green financial levy on a swath of the bloc's business sector could prove politically explosive.
Thambisetty pointed out that governments have other options beyond imposing mandatory contributions, such as offering tax benefits to companies that pay into the fund.
But behind all this lurks a more basic question — whether governments are serious about this sort of finance at all.
The Armenian summit gave some discouraging indications with the final text noting that countries were badly off-track to meet the 2030 nature protection goals that they had previously set.
These included a target of mobilising an annual \$200bn to “halt and reverse nature loss” – the latest figure is well under half that, according to the OECD.
Developed nation governments have failed to keep a promise to raise at least \$20bn a year in international biodiversity finance by 2025 and many are cutting this type of assistance still further as part of wider cuts to foreign aid budgets.
The Cali Fund, even under an unlikely best-case scenario, would meet only a tiny fraction of this enormous shortfall.
“Many people coming to negotiate in Yerevan, coming from environmental ministries and authorities – they’re seeing that their budget is being cut and at the same time they have to do more,” said Landry. “This is really an impossible equation.”

\- Oil price hits two-month low on hopes US will look to end conflict with Iran
Oil fell sharply yesterday to its lowest level in two months as the Democrats' landslide victory in the US midterms ratcheted up the pressure on President Donald Trump to end his war in Iran.
Brent crude, the international benchmark, slid 8.7 per cent to \$94.60 per barrel after US vice-president JD Vance blamed the conflict for the Republicans' wipeout in Tuesday's midterms vote.
The price has fallen about 17 per cent since the end of last week on reports of progress towards a peace agreement between Washington and Tehran.
West Texas Intermediate, the US benchmark, retreated 8 per cent to about \$88.40 per barrel, leaving it down more than 15 per cent this week.
"[The] real reason we lost is obvious to almost everyone," Vance posted on social media, adding that pollsters had found the top response from Republican voters on why they voted Democrat was a demand to "end the war".
Traders and analysts said the oil price was being driven by a rush of optimism over an end to the conflict, which has thrown the global oil market into turmoil and curtailed crude exports from the Gulf.
"The market is saying that Congress and members of his own administration are likely to start acting as a constraint on President Trump's war in Iran," said Seb Barker, chief market strategist at hedge fund firm Marshall Wace. Donald Trump Jr, the president's son, posted his support for Vance's message on X.
The slump in oil prices triggered a rally in government bond markets, which have been hit hard by energy-driven inflation in recent months.
Ten-year UK gilt yields dropped 0.13 percentage points, the biggest daily drop since May, to 5.16 per cent. Yields on French debt of the same maturity fell 0.16 points to 4.78 per cent. Yields fall as prices rise.
Claudio Galimberti, chief economist at Rystad Energy, a research group, said the
Markets update election results would make pursuing the war more costly for Trump. "A Democratic sweep changes the political cost of continuing the Iran war. The White House keeps its discretionary powers over strikes, blockades and sanctions licences. What changes, however, is the price of using them," he said.
Joel Hancock, a senior commodities analyst at Natixis Bank, said that, in the absence of a peace deal, Brent was likely to move back above \$100 per barrel due the continued difficulty of shipping crude out of the Gulf.

onald Reagan's re-election campaign motto of 1984, "Morning in America", rings true today in one critical sense. Back then, it painted a picture of hope and renewal. In the aftermath of Tuesday's stunning midterm election results, a so-called Blue Wave offers a sense of relief bordering on hope for the majority of Americans worried about a future led by Donald Trump and his cult-like Maga loyalists.
The cathartic repudiation of Trump for them need not, however, translate into sustained gratification in the economy or markets. To the contrary, many of the distortions and imbalances that America's politicians have condoned, if not enabled, over the past 10 years could finally be unmasked.
In part, that's because the US business cycle is ageing. Other than the brief Covid shock of 2020, the economy has not experienced a recession since the financial crisis of 2007-09. Lengthy upturns tempt politicians and policymakers, as well as businesses and consumers, to believe expansions can go on indefinitely. Yet since the end of the second world war, the US has had 12 recessions, one roughly every seven years.
Politicians and investors often ignore the risks of betting against the business cycle clock. Economists are also susceptible to such denial. Even Federal Reserve chair Alan Greenspan spoke of a “new economy” in the late 1990s during the dotcom bubble.
Tales of new eras are seductive. And that's what points to more of a twilight than a morning following the midterms. At work are the excesses of today's brave new era of AI. The US is making a massive bet on that. A tabulation of data centre project announcements points to a cumulative investment surge of about \$10tn over the seven years ending in 2032, according to Brookings research. That works out to 3.6 per cent of GDP over that period, more than three times the 1.1 per cent median average of five earlier technological breakthroughs – from the canals and railroads of the 19th century to electrification, highways and telecoms development in the 20th.
The scale of the AI build-out is already having a significant impact on supporting otherwise sluggish US economic growth – support that midterm results may draw into question. But it is also having profound implications for

The scale of the AI build-out is already having a significant impact on supporting otherwise sluggish US economic growth – support that midterm results may draw into question. But it is also having profound implications for
corporate finance. This year, the hyper-scalers are going from positive to negative cash flow positions. And with interest rates on the rise, a financial squeeze is more likely than not.
Alphabet could be the canary in this coal mine. Its latest earnings report underscored a sharp reduction in growth of its core search business, apparently cannibalised by the very breakthrough that is being so widely celebrated – AI-enabled queries. With Alphabet's net debt issuance in excess of \$75bn in the first nine months of 2026 versus a little more than \$11bn over the comparable period of 2025, there can be no mistaking an ominous turn in the AI leverage cycle.
As asset prices surge, initial bouts of investor suspicion eventually are overtaken by the speculative fear of missing out. Every bubble has its final Fomo phase. While a long frothy US equity market has been choppy for the past five months, it remains about 2 per cent below its all-time high. The so-called Magnificent-7 stocks still account for about a third of the market capitalisation of the S&P 500 index. The broad market's vulnerability to extreme concentration risk is worrisome, for sure.

Political uncertainty is likely to intensify in the weeks and months ahead as Trump continues to pursue extreme policies through executive actions while Democrats attempt to unwind some of his signature efforts such as tariffs, tax cuts for the wealthy, reductions in food stamp and Medicaid benefits, and a hands-off approach to AI regulation. When the political dust settles and Congressional actions are stymied by likely presidential vetoes, the music will stop just as it has before. And that may spell twilight for overbought markets.
You don't have to be a Luddite to worry about an AI bubble. All bubbles eventually burst and this one is unlikely to be any different. It's not the AI revolution that is at risk. The problem lies in its distortions of the real economy and asset prices. The astonishing US midterm results will not foreclose the turn of the business and financial cycles.
However painful the bursting of the AI bubble may turn out, that may be a price well worth paying though for a new morning of American values and global leadership.

Commodities
HARRY DEMPSEY — TOKYO
Four of Japan's biggest commodity traders reported record profits yesterday on the back of energy market turmoil triggered by the Iran war and surging copper prices, as their chief executives remained on edge about the Middle East.
Katsuya Nakanishi of Mitsubishi Corporation warned of the potential for the conflict to drag on and push oil prices higher because of uncertainty about Donald Trump's strategy after the Democrats regained control of Congress in the midterm elections.
“Developments in foreign policy and geopolitics could have an impact, potentially prolonging the situation in the Middle East. And if resource prices rise as a result, there’s also a possibility that this could fuel further inflation,” he said.
Trump told the FT yesterday he had no immediate plans to attack Iran. The president played down speculation that he was preparing to escalate the conflict in response to pressure from Israel after the election. Oil traders and analysts fear, however, that Trump's policymaking could become even more unpredictable after the Republican rout.
"The clean sweep raises more questions than answers, the most fundamental of which is whether Donald Trump will become a lame duck for the next two years or an angry duck," said Tamas
Varga, analyst at PVM Oil Associates. Concern about US policy uncertainty was echoed by Mitsui & Co chief executive Kenichi Hori, who said that it was preparing for a world in which geopolitical risks “continue to be unpredictable”.
Mitsui said the Middle East conflict would boost annual profits by ¥40bn (\$253mn) after a record first half as its global network of oil, gas and chemicals assets helped capture higher commodity prices and meet stronger demand.
Mitsui added there would be “further upside expected” in the following year for its liquefied natural gas business, with higher volumes of fuel expected to be traded.
Mitsui, Marubeni and Itochu all said they achieved record first-half profits, while Mitsubishi Corporation said it was on track to achieve a record high for annual profitability.
The bumper profits at Japan's biggest trading houses highlight the windfall for traders from oil prices that have consistently exceeded \$100 a barrel in the past two months. Mitsubishi Corporation launched a ¥1tn share buyback after raising its full-year net income forecast by 9 per cent to ¥1.2tn.
The trading houses were also boosted by copper prices, which have surged on expectation that the Trump administration could place tariffs on the metal used extensively in electrical infrastructure and appliances. See Lex

All data is as of close of the previous business day. Company classifications are based on the ICB system used by FTSE. FSTE 100 constituents are shown in bold. Closing prices are shown in pence unless otherwise indicated. Highs & lows are based on intra-day trading over a rolling 52 week period. Price/earnings ratios (P/E) are based on latest annual reports and accounts and are updated with interim figures. P/E is calculated using the company's diluted earnings from continuing operations. Yields are based on closing price and on dividends paid in the last financial year and updated with interim figures. Yields are shown in net terms; dividends on UK companies are net of 10% tax, non-UK companies are gross of tax. Highs & lows, yields and PER are adjusted to reflect capital changes where appropriate. Trading volumes are end of day aggregated totals, rounded to the nearest 1,000 shares. Net asset value per share (NAV) and split analytics are provided only as a guide. Discounts and premiums are calculated using the latest cum fair net asset value estimate and closing price. Discounts, premiums, gross redemption yield (GRY) and hurdle rate (HR) to share price (SP) and HR to wipe out (WO) are displayed as a percentage, NAV in pence.

Stevie Wonder at the O2 Arena on Tuesday night

Stevie Wonder O2 Arena, London ★★★★★
Ludovic Hunter-Tilney
Brand America has taken a battering in recent years, but one of its symbols of civic decency and individual brilliance rises above the tarnishment. Stevie Wonder is touring his masterpiece, Songs in the Key of Life. He released the immense double album in 1976 following an earlier period of disillusionment with the US, during which he contemplated quitting his homeland for Ghana.
The 50th anniversary tour arrived in London on the day of the midterm elections. Wonder is a stalwart supporter of the Democrats, but the electoral struggle taking place thousands of miles away went unmentioned. Instead the gig was imbued, in a gently proselytising way, by the singer-songwriter's philosophy of life. To a hard-nosed realist, its principal message of "love one another" might seem schmalzty and sappy — but not when anchored to the hefty authority of his magnum opus, nor the extraordinary resourcefulness of Wonder himself, blind for almost all his 76 years.
His first of two shows at the O2 Arena began in darkness. Wonder's voice rang out, encouraging us to close our eyes and see the world his way, through the workings of imagination, sympathy and, of course, hearing.
Then the lights went up to reveal him facing the audience at an electric keyboard, singing Songs in the Key of Life's opening track, "Love's in Need of Love Today". A row of backing singers added gospel balm while he grew increasingly impassioned in his role of the "friendly announcer" on a radio station, passing on the "serious news" of a cataclysmic conflict between love and hate.
He was in good voice, holding notes as if negotiating a point in the most soulfully mellifluous fashion. The album's running order continued with “Have a Talk with God”, a warmly enveloping funk classic in which he sang that "every problem has an answer", like the seamlessly interlocking parts of the song itself.
Then came a bravura stylistic swerve to the orchestral setting of “Village Ghetto Land”, played by a string section with a conductor. This was Wonder’s version of concert-hall art music, ennobling the dismal scenes of African-American impoverishment and political indifference about which he sang.
More than 100 minutes long, Songs in the Key of Life stands as the high point of musical auteurship. No fewer than 130 performers appeared on it. Only in his mid-twenties, Wonder was at the peak of his powers as songwriter, arranger, producer and performer. Having threatened to leave his label Motown — his potential move to Africa was motivated by frustration with the music industry as well as despair at US politics — he was awarded a record-breaking deal worth \$37mn. The album's ambitiousness met with equally vast commercial success.
Among the big band of musicians spread across the stage were two with whom he made the original recordings. Bassist Nathan Watts laid down fast jazz-rock rhythms in “Contusion”, accompanied by a dense weave of beats from a drummer and two percussionists. Greg Phillinganes, the show’s music director, sat behind Wonder at his own keyboard.
The three-hour show wasn't without fault. The tempo drifted during a mean-dering period of band introductions before an interval, while an increasingly hurried feel overtook the second half as Wonder became conscious of the encroaching 11pm curfew. But the message of his great album, interspersed with other songs from his back catalogue, hasn't lost its impact.
Wonder was helped around the stage by his children and band members, arm linked in theirs, an example of dependency. The idea of love's importance isn't abstract to him. But this communitarian ethos goes hand in hand with supreme individual giftedness. As well as playing electric keyboards and a grand piano, he blew beautifully melodic harmonica solos and played a stringed instrument called the harpejji. His command was captivating. Wonder is more than just the best of America – he represents the best of what can be achieved in music itself.

Escaping Idi Amin
BBC iPlayer
★★★★★
Rebecca Nicholson
In August 1972, the dictator Idi Amin announced the mass deportation of Uganda's Asian population, giving 80,000 people a deadline of 90 days to sell their businesses and leave. They were largely people of Indian descent who had been brought to the country in the first half of the 20th century by the British.
The informative, well-crafted two-part documentary Escaping Idi Amin tells the story of what happened that summer through the astonishing and courageous accounts of people who fled their homes in terror. It pieces together personal anecdotes and uses archival footage to convey the febrile anti-immigration political atmosphere of the era, and serves as a vital warning against strongmen who promise to fix struggling economies by scapegoating minority populations.
There are interviewees with four Ugandan Asians who were forced out by Amin and his Special Branch. It introduces them by their first names, noting their age when Amin became president following a 1971 military coup. Bharti was 10, Paresh was nine, Harminder was 11 and Maz was 23.
The younger ones remember an "idyllic" childhood in which Africans and Asians played football together in the streets. Maz had a photography studio and for a time sold portraits of Amin. All recall a vague sense of excitement when he seized power, wondering if his rise might be good for the country.
The economic situation in Uganda grew out of the messy aftermath of colonial rule, as Jonathan Dimbleby, who reported on the ground at the time, makes clear. After Uganda declared independence from Britain in 1962, it retained a three-tier class system: the British, the Asians and the African majority of about 10mn people. Almost all businesses were owned and run by Asians, and Amin was “ready and willing to exploit that resentment”, as Dimbleby explains. It is striking how much the dictator’s rhetoric sounds like that of the far right in Britain and the US today.
The documentary also offers an unflattering portrait of Britain in the 1970s: racist, hostile to immigrants, reluctant to accept any moral responsibility for the Ugandan Asians who held British passports and who ended up in Uganda as a result of colonial rule.
We see how, as UK politicians and diplomats debated and floundered, the 90 days ticked away, with Ugandan radio presenters announcing a daily countdown. The sense of disbelief curdled into fear and panic as the Special Branch embarked on a deadly campaign against Asian families, including children.
If this period is not as well known as it should be, then such a powerful and comprehensive film offers an urgent corrective.

D

onald Trump had asked voters to pretend he was on the ballot in Tuesday's US elections. He may regret saying that after the opposition Democrats emerged with control of both legislative houses. But the president wasn't the only topic on which voters indirectly made their views plain.
In one sense, the midterms were a vote on the AI boom or at least the building frenzy that it has inspired.
The top five states for data centre building are all now governed by Democrats with a hawkish bent when it comes to new construction of server-filled sheds.
Meta's Prometheus AI data centre project in Ohio —. Jon Cherry/Getty Images
That political arrangement could affect 45 per cent of planned data centre expansion, Goldman Sachs reckons. Curbs on new building, already in place in New York state, are likely to proliferate. Of 47 local votes on data centres counted by Redbud Consulting, at least 38 came out in favour of restrictions.
So imagine, for a second, that the powers that be press pause on new data centre construction. Who wins and loses? Clearly, it's good for those who have lots of capacity already.
Anthropic is on the hook for nearly \$900bn of cumulative “compute” spending, it revealed in an IPO filing last week.
That seems like a risk but, if the market rate of server space soars, whatever compute Anthropic has managed to secure will soon look more like an appreciating asset.
Sand in the AI gears – even assuming that is all it is – is less welcome for companies whose equity value depends on the continued and rapid build-out of high-tech infrastructure.
That includes so-called neoclouds like CoreWeave and more speculative builders like SB Energy and Nscale, both of which hope to go public in the US. The latter has already faced delays to data centres in the UK and Norway.
Moratoria are unlikely to last too
long. True, AI itself is becoming a polarising issue – a recent survey by HundredX shows an inclination to keep using the technology diverging sharply between left- and right-leaning respondents. But it ought to bring real economic benefits too.
Moreover, stopping construction in its tracks could send a chill through the broader economy. The construction of data centres has been booming
compared with other kinds of building activity.
For investors in AI companies, there is a silver lining to what might amount to helpful breathing room.
Planned spending on AI infrastructure has reached fantastical levels; financing it and securing a return on that investment is now the biggest risk to the US stock market since tech makes up 40 per cent of the S&P 500. Delays may frustrate but they also make it less likely that trillions of dollars are invested in equipment at risk of becoming obsolete or depreciating faster than its financiers expected.
On top of that, in financial terms, money spent tomorrow is less expensive than money spent today.
Consider some simple maths – \$1tn spent next year is like spending \$870bn today, using a 15 per cent discount rate. Push that out three more years and it falls to \$570bn.
Hotheaded tech chiefs will see delays as an affront. Investors could view them as an unexpected midterms dividend.
The copper frenzy shows no signs of abating, driven by growing demand from AI infrastructure and structurally limited mine supply. The World Bank now reckons the price of red metal next year will be \$13,000 per tonne, 18 per cent higher than it forecast in April. But not all parts of the supply chain benefit equally from the boom.
Think, for instance, of the divergent fortunes of China's miners and smelters. Given the country's position at the centre of the global copper market – it is the largest consumer in the world – it has plenty of both. Its share of copper production has roughly doubled between 2016 and 2024, according to S&P Global, as its mining groups have branched out overseas. And it dominates global refining and smelting, with over half of global capacity.
The current market environment favours miners, which are seeing selling prices rise much faster than unit costs. In the first quarter of last year, China's largest miner, Zijin Mining, sold copper concentrate at an average of over Rmb60,000 per tonne against a unit cost of sales of some Rmb21,000, implying a gross margin of 65 per cent. A year later, that rose to 71 per cent. The lower a miner's position on the global cost curve – and S&P Global expects Zijin to remain in the first quartile of the global curve for copper and gold – the higher the margin it can make.
On the flipside, the economics of smelting are moving in the opposite direction. Because smelters buy copper concentrate, they have high input costs. And their profitability depends on how much they can charge in processing fees. The answer, here, is not very much at all as new capacity has outstripped mining output. The annual benchmark treatment charge has fallen to zero this year, while spot charges have turned negative, according to the International Energy Agency.
For Chinese miners, at least, the copper boom is delivering a windfall: in the first half of this year, Zijin's operating cash flow nearly doubled. That gives it the firepower to keep


investing in its own projects and to acquire new mines.
Yet its shares trade just below 8 times forward earnings, a discount to global peers including Glencore and Southern Copper despite its production scale and reserves. That suggests they are valuing it more as a China-focused producer than an international mining group. The real opportunity, now, may lie not in betting on higher copper prices but in owning the companies best positioned to capture the value created by the boom.
It looks like Californians on Tuesday rejected the “billionaire tax”, which would have hit tech entrepreneurs such as Nvidia’s Jensen Huang and Meta Platforms’ Mark Zuckerberg.
The UK, therefore, can congratulate itself on being already in line with the zeitgeist. Chancellor John Healey last week laid out a scheme to reduce capital gains tax to 10 per cent for company founders and large, early shareholders on up to £10mn of profit.
Encouraging entrepreneurship is a sensible objective – especially in the UK, which has a competitive advantage in the European landscape.
Its venture capital market, relative to overall GDP, ranks only behind the US, Israel and Sweden, according to Canada's development bank.
Graduates include DeepMind, now part of Google's empire, financial services group Revolut and autonomous driving company Wayv
autonomous driving company wayve.
The tax break, or “founders’ relief”, has been well received by the start-up community – previous versions had been watered down to reduce shielded amounts and raise the tax take.
Trouble is, rewarding founders after the fact may not be the best way to encourage them. Who starts their own company spurred on by a tax break?
A Treasury report in 2018 found 8 per cent of those who claimed the then entrepreneurs' relief had been influenced by it at the time of their investment. It seems that thoughts on how to capitalise on the value created develop along with the enterprise, not at the point of its inception.
Moreover, it isn't enough for UK entrepreneurs to take the plunge. To deliver benefits to society, they also need to find a way to scale up their creations. On this front, the country is half as successful as the US.
While four in any clutch of 100 US Anthropic wannabes make it to \$1bn unicorn status, only two British ones do, according to a UK report earlier this year. But if the UK's ambition is to build the next Anthropic, Healey's founder tax break is too small to be anything more than a rounding error.
Yet for all its faults, founders' relief may yet deliver some utility. Several studies have shown that uncertainty over the longevity of incentives affects investment decisions more than the absolute tax to be paid. The prospect of a little more money, in case of success, may not sway those with a visionary bent but some certainty about how they'll be treated has to help.

\- Voters sweep Republicans from power in US Congress - Anger over cost of living spurs Democratic blue wave
\- Vance pins blame on Iran war as recriminations begin - Oil prices tumble and tech hyperscalers' shares surge


JAMES POLITI — WASHINGTON
Source: Associated Press as at 7.20pm GMT Nov 4
Americans have delivered a crushing rebuke to Donald Trump, sweeping his Republican Party from power in Congress after an election dominated by anger over the economy and the spiralling cost of living.
The scale of the Democrats' blue wave unleashed Republican recriminations, as the shell-shocked party sought to assign blame for a historic defeat in many traditional strongholds.
Vice-president JD Vance stoked the disquiet with a lengthy post on X in which he argued that Trump's war in Iran had led to the electoral wipeout – airing in public his long-held frustrations over the conflict.
"The reason we lost is the war," wrote Vance yesterday, who is expected to join the 2028 race to succeed Trump. "The president himself said so last night."
Oil prices tumbled as traders bet that the election setback would increase pressure on Trump to reach a settlement with Tehran. Brent crude fell 8.7 per cent to \$94.60, its lowest level in two months.
After the depth of Republican losses became apparent, the US president conceded that the Democrats “did a good job”, adding: “I don’t like to consider it a defeat for me. I wasn’t on the ballot.”
Vance predicted a lot of “infighting” and “gaslighting” among Republicans in the coming months, including over whether the party’s economic message was “sharp enough”. But “everyone knows why we lost”, he added.
In a measure of the level of voter discontent with Trump's first two years, Democrats made inroads deep into
Republican regions including the Midwest where Kansas elected its first Democratic senator since 1932, as farmers lashed out at high fuel costs and the president's trade wars.
The heavy defeats saw the Republican Party lose Senate seats from South and North Carolina to Iowa and Texas, where James Talarico beat Ken Paxton to become the state's first Democrat since the late 1980s to be elected to the upper chamber.
In Michigan, progressive Abdul El-Sayed defied a well-funded campaign and opposition from fellow Democrats to become the US's first Muslim elected to the upper chamber of Congress.
The Republican blame game came as the newly empowered Democrats rushed to sharpen their agenda for the next two years, having seized both chambers of Congress for the first time since 2023.
Hakeem Jeffries has pledged to outline the party's legislative plans within 100 hours of being sworn in as House Speaker in the new Congress on January 3. He said yesterday he would focus on "affordability rather than retribution against Donald Trump".
However, even with control of both the Senate and the House, any legislation that the Democrats introduce could be thwarted by the president, who

said last week he would "veto everything" if Republicans lost power in either chamber.
While the threat of gridlock in Washington raised risks for the Democrats, investors bet that the result of the vote could ultimately restrain the erratic White House policymaking that has stirred up markets. The S&P 500 rose 1.8 per cent by midday in New York, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 was up 1.6 per cent in a day of big swings as traders tried to pick the winners and losers from an anticipated Democrat backlash against the AI industry.
Shares in US hyperscalers surged as investors bet that established tech companies would prove less vulnerable to a Democrat-led pushback against new data centre projects.
Even with the count still incomplete, the scale of the Democrat's victory far surpassed many polls that had predicted solid Democratic wins.
"This is not a partisan moment. This is a patriotic one," Jeffries said.

Parties scan for favourites as 2028 race set in motion
Election day is still two years away but both Republicans and Democrats are mobilising for a run at the Oval Office. With Donald Trump disqualified from a third term, both parties will be seeking a candidate. Maga loyalist JD Vance is his most natural heir but traditionalist Ron DeSantis is a potential dark horse.

Silicon Valley billionaires who supported Donald Trump by donating \$600mn to Republican candidates in the US midterm elections have been rebuked by American voters, whose anger at the rise of AI and Big Tech helped Democrats win a majority in both houses of Congress.
Donors including Elon Musk, who alone dumped more than \$470mn into various House and Senate races, gave Republicans a huge fundraising advantage. Nearly half of Musk's spending went to Ken Paxton, the scandal-plagued Texas Republican who lost to Democrat James Talarico.
Like Paxton, other Republicans competing for Senate seats in battleground states lost. "Tech executives spent hundreds of millions of dollars but their efforts proved to be nothing more than a paper tiger," said Sacha Haworth, who heads the non-profit group Tech Oversight Project.
"The money didn't work," said one political operative who had coordinated spending in the midterms. "Elon Musk spent half a billion dollars and lost every race he showed up in."
The tech billionaires' lavish campaign spending ran into a wall of voter anger at rising inflation and the Iran war, leading to the “monolithic” vote swing towards the Democrats, according to the person. “The wave was so big that it trounced the spending [on tech],” they said.
Crypto industry-aligned billionaires also spent heavily in an unsuccessful effort to prevent Democrat Sherrod Brown from returning to the Senate, where he has been a leading critic of the sector.
Fairshake, a Super Pac established to support crypto-friendly candidates, spent more than \$50mn on ads against Brown, the former chair of the Senate banking committee.
In a further blow to the tech industry, dozens of data centre moratoriums were passed, as voters voiced opposition to construction of the infrastructure that underpins the AI boom.
Senior Democrats including Greg Casar, the leader of the progressive bloc in the House of Representatives, are already calling for the party to use its new powers in Congress to force AI bosses to testify under oath next year.
After the results were clear, Musk deleted a post on X in which he had encouraged voters to back Republican candidates. "Vote red today!" he wrote while the polls were open, but the post was taken down after the scale of the Democrats' victory became clear. Blow to Musk page 2

Iran war leads long list of gripes after party suffers historic defeat at polls
ALEX ROGERS — WASHINGTON
Republicans across the US did not take long to turn on each other as it became clear they would lose both the House and Senate.
They blamed Donald Trump for attacking Iran, breaking pledges including those on entering no new wars and lowering costs.
They also blamed him for bulldozing the White House ballroom, taking a jet from Qatar, earning \$2bn in his first year in office, and initially resisting Congress's effort to release the Jeffrey Epstein files. And they blamed Trump for federal agents shooting and killing US citizens in Minneapolis.
US vice-president JD Vance was quick to join the recriminations yesterday, blaming Trump's war in Iran for the Republicans wipeout.
"The reason we lost is the war," Vance wrote in a lengthy post on X.
He said there would be a lot of "infighting" and "gaslighting" among

Republicans in the coming months about what went wrong, including whether the party's economic message was “sharp enough”, but “everyone knows why we lost. And any honest conversation about where we go from here must start there.”
Marc Short, Trump's former director of legislative affairs, said it was “time for Republicans to do some soul-searching,” adding on X: “It’s hard to think of a [White House] that’s sabotaged House and Senate candidates more than this one.”
The party's Senate candidates lost in North Carolina, Iowa, South Carolina, Texas and Kansas – states that had not elected a Democrat to the Senate since 2008, 2008, 1998, 1988 and 1932 respectively. Susan Collins lost in Maine, after serving in the Senate for 30 years.

Dejection: losing Senate candidate Mike Rogers' watch party in Detroit
Those in touch with the White House said the mood was “bad” and “sombre”. The heads of the House and Senate campaign arms both had embarrassing losses: Richard Hudson lost his own House seat in North Carolina and Tim Scott saw his South Carolina seat turn blue.
"After the Biden era, Americans wanted an economy that worked for them. Instead, they received a hastily executed war, headline after headline of scandals, a ballooning \$40tn debt, and unpredictable tariffs," said Utah senator John Curtis.
"It's time for Republicans to return to the principled conservative values that once defined us – and that we've steadily abandoned."
Some said the party as they knew it was done. “Colossal failure at all levels,” said Roy Bailey, who raised money for Trump’s 2016 campaign and Ron DeSantis’s 2024 campaign. “A complete referendum on Trump!”
"I hate to say it, but America is over," said Maga activist Laura Loomer on X.
Others blamed the candidates and Trump's staff.
Caroline Sunshine, a former Trump campaign spokesperson, called for chief of staff Susie Wiles to resign.
"We got wiped out," she wrote to the FT. "The coalition Trump built in 2024 got burned down tonight . . . if she cares about the future of the GOP, she'll take that accountability."
A Republican operative close to the White House attacked the party's candidates and said: "I think the Republican Party is going to be dead, when the president is gone."
Interpersonal rivalries spilled out.
In South Carolina, Ralph Norman, who ran against Trump-endorsed Dar-line Graham in the GOP primary, texted the FT that his opponent lost because “the President along with the Republican Establishment tried to PROP UP and FORCE SC to elect a candidate that the voters revolted against”.
Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie went after losing Ohio gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy for airing an advert featuring the estranged mother of his Democratic opponent Amy Acton. “The ad was an X-ray of Vivek’s rotten moral centre,” said Christie, who ran against Ramaswamy in the 2024 presidential primary.
Kansas, where a Democrat had not won a Senate seat in nearly 100 years, was a particularly sore spot, with Senator Roger Marshall damaged by the New York Times revealing he sued hundreds of patients over outstanding bills during his medical career. “Marshall is the worst senator in the history of Kansas,” said one Kansas GOP operative.
Trump, of course, insisted he would have won. "I wasn't on the Ballot and if I was, we would have won IN A LAND-SLIDE!" he posted on Truth Social.

STEPHANIE FINDLAY — AUSTIN
James Talarico's sweeping victory in Texas to score the Democrats' first Senate race win in the state in more than 30 years was a blow not just to his opponent Ken Paxton but also the man who had ploughed tens of millions of dollars into bankrolling the Republican's campaign: Elon Musk.
The billionaire, who has tied his fortune to Texas since relocating Tesla's headquarters to the state, had deployed his financial firepower against Talarico while using his platform X to fan conspiracy theories about the Democrat.
Early last month, amid a conservative social media conspiracy that Talarico had been institutionalised in Ohio after he disappeared from the campaign trail, Musk posted: “There is something deeply wrong with Talarico.”
The 37-year-old candidate hit back, saying: "There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal US Senator."
On Tuesday, as voters headed to the polls, Musk reshared a post on
X from US President Donald Trump referring to Talarico as "TalaFREAKO".
Texas boasted the second most expensive Senate race in the country, with the contest between Paxton and Talarico costing more than \$430mn, the bulk of which was spent by Republicans, according to advertisement-tracking firm AdImpact.
Musk's Pac alone contributed \$47mn to the Republican Senate race in Texas and \$158mn to the Senate Leadership Fund, the Republican Senate's main Super Pac, in September.
“Without Elon Musk coming in, Paxton’s campaign would have been completely bereft of financial backing,” said Mark Jones, a political science professor at Rice University in Houston.
In his acceptance speech yesterday, Talarico said: "We just sent a message to every billionaire mega-donor . . . every trillionaire mega-donor."
Since moving Tesla's base to Texas, Musk has rooted his business empire there, building his own town called Starbase, a rocket launch site that is home to SpaceX headquarters.
In another blow to Musk, Greg Abbott, the state's Republican governor who was backed by Silicon Valley for his light-touch regulation, was defeated by Democrat Gina Hinojosa.
Hinojosa has promised an immediate moratorium on data centre development in the state after AI became a flashpoint for voters.
Musk's backing had been a lifeline for Paxton after Senate Republicans had already spent millions supporting veteran Texas senator John Cornyn in the

'People got so excited [when Trump threatened to run for a third term], but we've got to let this guy go'
GEORGE STEER — NEW YORK
Flanked by portraits of Richard Nixon and the Pope, New York Young Republican Club campaign chair Mario Nicoletto cracked a joke befitting of the president even as Tuesday's blue wave gathered force.
“Your leaders in the Republican Party have failed you,” Nicoletto told a thinning crowd of baby-faced conservatives gathered on the top floor of a Manhattan townhouse. “But we are the future of the party, which is a little double entendre because we are the future of the party and we also throw great parties.”
By 10.30pm, the party was all but over. With the Democrats on the cusp of securing a majority in the US Senate, and closing in on the House of Representatives, several of the NYYRC members still standing late on Tuesday seemed in little doubt about who was to blame.
“I was excited when [President Donald] Trump was elected a second time. It felt like a historic moment to flip a lot of the inefficiencies and evils and excesses that me and many others had noticed,” said Nathan Shepherd, a 21-year-old classical musician from the Midwest who joined the NYYRC last year.
"After that effect wore off, there has been less to hold on to as promises aren't kept. People feel a deep sense of deceit."
Even members of the NYYRC's top brass seemed worn down by Trump's unpredictability.
“People got so excited [when Trump threatened to run for a third term], but we’ve got to let this guy go,” said Alexis Winters, NYYRC corresponding secretary. “Trump was very, very useful and he was necessary at the time he came around. I am still happy with his presidency, but I am also ready for someone new.”
The NYYRC today boasts almost 2,000 members and describes itself as “the vital heart of unapologetic conservatism in New York”. Steve Bannon, Trump’s chief strategist in his first term, and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, attended the club’s annual black-tie gala in 2024. Trump was a keynote speaker the year before.

Chair Mario Nicoletto addresses the NYYRC on Tuesday night
In July, the NYYRC attracted scrutiny after New York magazine alleged that it had become a hotbed of racism and misogyny. The club denied the allegations.
Like the Republican Party it supports, the NYYRC also appears increasingly divided by the sort of internecine squabbling usually associated with leftwing politics. The party's relationship with the Israeli government and the Trump administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files "are at the core of the rift", according to an article in the NYYRC's September periodical.
The same article went on to single out the “third world hordes invited in by the Democrats [who] do not allow their poor financial situation to get in the way of having as many children as possible”.
Almost all of the NYYRC members who spoke to the FT said their older ideological compatriots had lost track of what it meant to be truly conservative. Several added that the war in Iran, in particular, had proved to be a colossal mistake.
NYYRC president Stefano Forte — who this year visited Hungary to endorse rightwing prime minister Viktor Orbán ahead of the country's elections — early yesterday posted on X criticism of the “neocons and warmongers in the party” as it became clear that the Democrats were in the ascendancy.

JAMES POLITI — WASHINGTON
By the end of the evening, Donald Trump could only rail on social media about the crushing rout he had just suffered. "I wasn't on the Ballot and if I was, we would have won IN A LANDSLIDE!" he wrote on Truth Social.
US presidents have been beaten badly in previous midterm elections, from the “thumping” of George W Bush in 2006 to the “shellacking” of Barack Obama in 2010. But the humbling of Trump and his Republican Party in 2026 was in a category of its own – a savage rejection from across the country of the president, his allies and his agenda.
Battleground states and districts easily swung back to the Democrats, while Republicans suffered bruising defeats on their home turf in deeply conservative parts of the south and rural areas where they had seemed untouchable.
More than anything, the 80-year-old real estate mogul turned president who has dominated US politics for more than a decade seemed to have lost touch with the electorate.
"Brutal night!!" said Bryan Lanza, a former Trump aide now at Mercury, a consultancy in Washington. "Midterms were always going to be rough but this isn't what anyone expected."
"I have never seen a night like this," said Brendan Boyle, a Philadelphia Democrat who will become chair of the House budget committee in January. "No president has been so fully repudiated like this in my lifetime."
Republicans were fuming. “Blood-bath,” declared Erick Erickson, the conservative commentator from Georgia. “The GOP will say it is just Iran and gas prices. It is that. But so much more.”
He listed everything from “corruption” to “incompetence”, “playing nice with Russia”, “overly aggressive deportations” and the extravagant White House ballroom renovation.
Trump had tried to rescue his party with a star-studded convention in Dallas, Texas, in September and near-daily visits to politically vulnerable states in recent weeks. But he may have ultimately made the situation worse, failing to focus on the cost-of-living concerns that animated most voters and digressing on to issues such as building projects in Washington and the physical appearance of his preferred candidates.
The president and his allies seemed to have lost sight of how they won back the White House and full control of Congress in 2024. Trump ran on a mandate of quashing inflation, promising \$2-a-gallon gas prices and 3 per cent mortgages. But his “liberation day” trade war in April last year undermined those goals, driving up the cost of imports and keeping inflation uncomfortably high.
The real turning point came when Trump launched the war with Iran, leading to a surge in energy prices that sparked fury among voters.
"Every month, it costs more to live,"
---
Brendan Boyle, Democrat
said Jeff Rohrick, 54, who works for a non-profit group. "Like, how bad does it have to get? What's the line?"
Longer-term borrowing costs have also risen, with the benchmark 30-year mortgage rate surging above 7 per cent. On the eve of the election, the average petrol price under Trump finally surpassed the level seen under the Joe Biden administration, hitting \$3.46 a gallon.
"It is just way too much for gas right now," said Chad Kugel, 46, a warehouse operator in Boone, Iowa, as he prepared to vote on Tuesday evening.
David Wrigley, a construction expert in Pennsylvania who supported the winning Democratic candidate in a swing district, said: "Trump's a hated figure. He has been so divisive. And there is been more corruption under him than this country's ever seen."
But rather than taking heed of voters' worries, Trump and other administration officials dismissed them as a Democrat hoax and claimed the US was living in an economic "golden age".
“President Trump promised that he would end inflation on day one,” said Michael Strain, director of economic policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think-tank. “But instead of pursuing an affordability agenda, the president launched a trade war that increased prices. And then belittled voters’ concerns about the cost of living.”
Trump also stumbled in his choices of midterm candidates, using his vast sway over Republican politics to back figures more loyal to him than they were competitive in a general election. He made a huge effort to oust John Cornyn, the sitting Texas Republican senator, in favour of Ken Paxton, the state's controversial attorney-general, who lost the seat.
After the death of Lindsey Graham in South Carolina, Trump supported his sister Darline, but her campaign fell flat, handing that Senate seat to the Democrats as well.
The president's efforts to tarnish the opposition as socialists beholden to the far left, including in the Michigan Senate race where progressive Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed was on the ballot, also failed.
"It is just drama, and drama sells," Tommy Harris, a Detroit voter, said of the bitter attacks during the Michigan Senate race. "I want to see what he's gonna do," he said of El-Sayed.
More traditional Republicans, including Maine veteran senator Susan Collins and moderate Pennsylvania Republican Brian Fitzpatrick, were swept under by the backlash against Trump, even after they tried to distance themselves from the president.
At the White House on Tuesday night, officials sought to project defiance and argued that without Trump, the result would have been worse for Republicans.
“Regardless of how today plays out, President Trump’s resolve to stop the radical left is only going to become stronger. Buckle up,” one official said.
Before election day, the Trump administration attempted to influence the midterms, from threatening election officials with prosecutions to filing lawsuits seeking to intervene in certain races. But the result was so overwhelming that Trump could not say the vote was rigged. “I am absolutely willing to accept those results,” he said yesterday.

Mideast conflict
EDWARD LUCE — WASHINGTON
The US has no immediate plans to strike Iran, Donald Trump has said, as the president played down speculation that he was preparing to escalate his conflict with the Islamic republic after the midterm elections.
In an interview with the FT on Tuesday, the US president suggested he was content with the state of the stand-off with Iran – even as he signalled he was prepared for more war if necessary.
"We seem to be getting everything we want," Trump said in a six-minute telephone interview.
Asked about strong hints by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that there would be an attack this week, Trump said: “I’m ready, we’re ready. We’re locked and loaded if we need to go, but there may be no reason for it.”
The comments from the president came hours before polls closed across the country in congressional elections in which Trump's party suffered heavy losses amid voter anxiety about inflation and the surge in fuel prices that followed his decision to go war with Iran.
Yesterday, vice-president JD Vance said that the war was to blame for the Republicans' wipeout. "The president himself said so last night," Vance wrote on X.
On Monday, the US launched air strikes on Iran, hitting targets on Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz in what Washington described as a defensive move to protect American military assets in the Middle East.
Trump has claimed energy prices will fall sharply after the midterms and told the FT there was now more oil passing through the Strait of Hormuz — the critical chokepoint for crude supplies out of the Gulf — than before the war and a US blockade on Iran's ports was successfully stifling Tehran's economy.
"It's a brilliant situation," Trump said.
The US was not “really” fighting Iran, he added. “If you think about it, we haven’t really had a war with them in a long time, six months, maybe more.”
Trump added: “I don’t consider that we’re in war like Ukraine, wars like World War I, World War II.”
The US leader underlined that he would not share any attack plans in advance but said indirect negotiations with Iran about the fate of its roughly 1,000lb stockpile of enriched uranium – “nuclear dust”, as he calls it – were continuing.
“Even though it’s under hundreds of tons of rock, I would say that I’m not happy that it will be there,” Trump said. “So it’s one of the things that we do talk to them about. But you know, we’re having discussions, and we’ll see how that all works out.”
Hopes for a breakthrough in US-Iran talks have sent oil prices lower. But on Tuesday, US petrol prices hit a new average high under any administration.
Trump's subdued tone in his interview with the FT suggested a president whose attention has shifted, at least momentarily, from his job as US commander-in-chief. He took questions on Iran but preferred to focus on what he said would be a Republican midterm victory. "Every one of [his election rallies] was a home run," he told the FT. "They were packed. They had thousands and thousands of people outside of large arenas and couldn't even get in."
He also added he was optimistic that Ukraine-Russia peace talks were making ground. Trump's optimism is not echoed by Ukrainian negotiators.
Policy agenda
---
JOE MILLER — WASHINGTON
After Democrats spent two years watching from the sidelines as Donald Trump enriched himself and his family, started wars and imposed sweeping tariffs, the party has power again – and is ready to use it.
Hakeem Jeffries has pledged to outline an agenda within 100 hours of being sworn in as House Speaker in the new US Congress on January 3.
“We’re going to aggressively focus on making life more affordable,” the New York congressman said. His party would introduce legislation in “areas where we know there is uniform Democratic support”, such as reversing Medicaid cuts, tackling tariffs and attempting to end President Donald Trump’s Iran war.
Yet even with control of both the Senate and the House, legislation Democrats introduce could be thwarted by the president, who said last week he would “veto everything” if Republicans lost power in either chamber. On Tuesday, he posted an image of a red Maga hat with the word “Veto” emblazoned on it.
Some bills might not even make it to Trump's desk if his allies on Capitol Hill deploy the filibuster, which in effect makes it necessary for a supermajority of 60 senators in the 100-member chamber to sign off on most laws.
Progressive Democrats have argued for deploying the “nuclear option” to abolish the filibuster. Meanwhile, there is broader disagreement among Democrats over whether to introduce bold, reforming legislation or focus on bills that could win bipartisan support.
“I do not think it is time to propose things that the president [is] guaranteed to veto,” Hawaii Senator Brian Schatz said last month. “That is . . . wasted energy.”
But Greg Casar, a Democratic representative from Texas who leads the Congressional Progressive Caucus in the House, has warned that Democrats “must pass bills powerful enough to actually tackle the cost of living crisis”.
People close to the CPC — whose members also want to end military aid to Israel and restore foreign aid spending — said they believed some affordability legislation could win support from Republican colleagues and even the president. They pointed to the success of a bipartisan housing bill that banned private equity from buying single-family homes this year.
Brad Schneider, chair of the moderate New Democrat Coalition, told the FT he also supported introducing legislation that could be vetoed by the president. "We have to demonstrate . . . that we take [Americans'] concerns seriously, we are committed to making their lives better," he said.
There is more agreement among
Democrats on how the party should use its oversight powers, including issuing subpoenas and using their power to compel witnesses to testify under oath.
Jamie Raskin, a Maryland Democrat who is likely to lead the powerful House judiciary committee, has signalled he will investigate law firms that made deals with the Trump administration, the president's pardoning of donors and the “self-dealing” behind Trump’s crypto empire, among other issues.

Hakeem Jeffries said Americans 'want us to get things done'
Raskin also last week put oil companies “on notice” that they may be held liable for facilitating Trump’s deal with Russia to release diesel reserves, and wrote to AI companies, including Anthropic and OpenAI, demanding they commit to reporting safety incidents within 48 hours of detection.
California representative Robert Garcia, who will probably lead the similarly powerful House oversight committee, told the FT last month that he would be “aggressive” in pursuing the “Trump crime family”, their business partners and billionaire allies. He also suggested he would investigate Trump megadonor Elon Musk.
Aaron Cutler, a partner at Hogan Lovells Cadwalader, said he expected to see “a lot of subpoenas” issued to corporations and government agencies, as well as “stand-offs with the executive branch”. While there is consensus among Democrats over investigating corruption within the Trump administration, many want a broader oversight agenda. “Democrats need to do things that get some attention . . . including going after corporations and companies that are on the wrong side of consumer perceptions,” said Evan Roth Smith, a Democratic strategist.
He suggested hauling the chief executives of American supermarkets in front of Congress over rising prices.
The most divisive issue among Democrats is whether to pursue another impeachment of Trump – who turns 81 next year and is constitutionally barred from running for a third term.
Yesterday, Jeffries urged his party to focus on affordability rather than retribution against the Trump administration. “The American people don’t want us to get even,” he told MS Now. “They want us to get things done.” |

Democrats gained ground in the vast majority of House districts across the country, picking up votes in both urban and rural areas alike.
With most of the votes counted, the average House district recorded a 12-point swing towards the Democrats when compared with the presidential election result in 2024.
Areas where Republicans had gained under Donald Trump in 2024 swung decisively back the other way, enabling the Democrats to flip dozens of seats.
The largest swings of more than 40 percentage points were recorded in districts in Texas and New Jersey, especially in areas where Hispanic voters made up a large share of the population. | 34 seats not up for election | 20 | 51 to win | 13 | 31 seats not up for election |

The elections delivered a historic "blue wave" as Democrats swept to victory in Republican strongholds across the country, with voters punishing the Trump administration for soaring gas prices stoked by the president's war in Iran.
Within two hours of polls closing, the Democrats took control of both the Senate and the House.
Democratic Senate candidates greatly increased their share of the vote when compared with the presidential election result two years ago.
In Texas, South Carolina and Kansas
— all states Trump won by double-digit margins in 2024 — Democrats recorded huge gains, marking a massive deterioration in Republican support in states once considered deeply red.
The Democrats' gains were broad based, with the party increasing its support among almost all demographic groups, according to exit poll data from NBC News.
Younger voters swung more than older voters, with 72 per cent of people aged 18 to 29 voting for Democrats, up from 54 per cent in the presidential election two years ago.
All racial groups surveyed also moved towards the Democrats. Support among Latino voters — whose shift towards Republicans had played a pivotal role in Trump's victory in 2024 — increased from 51 to 62 per cent.

Continent hopes for reset of fractious transatlantic ties and end to Iran war
FT REPORTERS
European politicians have hailed Donald Trump's sweeping defeat in the US midterm elections as a chance to moderate fractious transatlantic relations, with Spain's prime minister cheering the results as the “crumbling” of a “far-right wave”.
The US president's first two years of his second term have deeply undermined relations with Europe, as his mercurial attitude to Nato, trade war against Brussels and pro-Russian stance towards the war in Ukraine upended decades of transatlantic beliefs on the continent.
Politicians from across the EU's centrist and leftwing parties cheered the Democratic victory that hands Trump's opponents control of Congress. However, they were split over its potential impact on foreign policy, cautioning that Europe should not temper efforts to de-risk its reliance on Washington.
Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, who has been Trump's most vocal critic among EU leaders, presented the Republican defeat as a positive sign for his own fight for re-election this month.
"The far-right wave is no longer growing," he said. "It is crumbling."
Sánchez wrote on X: "Yesterday, American society voted against policies that only make people poorer. Against hatred. Against machismo. Against climate change denial and the privileges of the elites.”
UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham said the election results meant “the world has an opportunity now” to focus on an end to the US-Iran war and tackling high costs of living.
"I can't get people's cost of living pressures down until the conflict in the Middle East is resolved," Burnham said.
Germany's centre-right chancellor, Friedrich Merz, said he expected Trump to continue conducting policy by executive orders. "Trump has spent the last two years governing by bypassing Congress; why should things be any different now?" he said.
Germany's finance minister Lars
Klingbeil, who is also the co-leader of the country's Social Democrats (SPD), said “rightwing populists” and “authoritarian forces” had been defeated in the US midterms.
---
He said his country would reach out to US Democrats, as well as to the “reasonable forces” in the Republican Party, to get rid of trade tariffs, stop Washington’s “nonsensical war in Iran” and help Ukraine against Russian aggression.
Stefan Löfven, president of the Party of European Socialists, added that the result was “a chance to return American democracy to normal . . . Congress now has a mandate to do its job: to scrutinise, legislate and hold the president to account.”
Germany's defence minister Boris Pistorius, also a member of Germany's centre-left SPD party, offered “congratulations to the Democrats” but pledged that Berlin would “continue to work closely and in a spirit of trust with the [Trump] administration”.
Since Trump returned to office, European Nato allies have drastically increased defence spending and investment in key capabilities for which they rely on the US, such as military satellites and long-range weapons. The EU has also signed a range of new trade deals with non-western countries and is seeking to implement “Buy European” policies in specific areas.
Germany's foreign minister Johann Wadephul said he was “somewhat optimistic that there will now be more talks between the two parties in Congress in terms of what can be done to support Ukraine”.
But Trump's ambassador to Nato cautioned against those expecting a shift.
"The foreign policy of the United States has not changed. And we shouldn't expect that it would change in a midterm election," said Matthew Whitaker.

ALEX ROGERS — WASHINGTON
Democrats won control of the US Senate by taking states in traditional Republican strongholds in a string of victories that brings new blood to Washington.
The next generation of Democratic leaders – which many see as a field for potential presidential candidates – includes a Methodist pastor, a Paralympic gold medallist, a logger, a paediatrician, a state health official and a former sixth-grade teacher.
After years in which the party was dominated by older grandees such as former president Joe Biden and senator Bernie Sanders, the new intake brings a younger generation into view.
These are the new senators to watch:
---
A Rhodes Scholar and former county health director, Abdul El-Sayed won a crucial Midwest swing state on a far-left platform.
He has proposed the abolition of ICE and guaranteeing healthcare for all. El-Sayed, who will become the first Muslim US senator in American history, has called Benjamin Netanyahu's response to Hamas's October 7 2023 attack on Israel a "genocide".
In August, El-Sayed apologised to a group of Jewish Democrats for previously saying that “hurt people hurt people” after an attack on a Michigan synagogue.
El-Sayed, 42, won despite late opposition from former Democratic opponent Haley Stevens, who endorsed his Republican challenger Mike Rogers.
---
A former sixth-grade teacher studying to become a Presbyterian pastor, James Talarico is the first Democrat to win a Senate race in Texas since 1988.
In his campaign Talarico, 37, tied the affordability crisis to corruption, pushing for greater deductions on healthcare and housing, higher taxes on wealth and a ban on Super Pacs, gerrymandering and congressional stock trading.
Republicans threw the kitchen sink at Talarico, dubbing him “Talafreako”, falsely claiming he was a vegan and ridiculing him for once saying “God is non-binary”.

Donald Trump endorsed Ken Paxton, Talarico's Republican opponent, despite the state attorney-general's long history of marital and legal troubles, including an impeachment by the Republican-controlled state House on charges of bribery and obstruction of justice.
---
Paediatrician Annie Andrews is the first South Carolina Democrat elected to the Senate since 1998, beating Lindsey Graham's sister Darline, who was appointed to the seat after her brother's death.
Andrews, 46, ran on a programme that included the expansion of Medicaid, which provides health insurance for the poor, and ending the war against Iran. She also adopted some Trump positions, such as making permanent no taxes on tips and social security.
The political neophyte also seized on one of Darline Graham's comments during a debate – “national security is not my thing” – to accuse her Republican opponent of being unqualified.
---
Adam Hamilton, a Methodist pastor of a megachurch in Kansas, is the first Democrat elected to the US Senate from Kansas since 1932, before the invention of the chocolate-chip cookie.
The 62-year-old beat Roger Marshall, a Republican senator who was found to have sued hundreds of clients over outstanding bills during his career as an obstetrician.
---
Former North Carolina governor and state attorney-general Roy Cooper beat ex-GOP party boss Michael Whatley in North Carolina, which had not elected a Democrat to the Senate since 2008.
Cooper, 69, pitched himself as a moderate able to push back on conservative social policies while touting liberal achievements such as a Medicaid expansion with the Republican-controlled legislature.
---
Iowa has elected a Democrat to the Senate for the first time in 18 years. Josh Turek, a Paralympic gold medallist and state legislator, combined a compelling personal story with well-crafted attacks tying Trump's tariffs and war against Iran to a rise in the cost of living. But he also sought to establish his bipartisan bona fides in a state Trump won by 13 points two years ago. He said he had no interest in impeachment and would work with Trump on immigration.
---
Troy Jackson, a longtime state legislator, pitched himself as a fifth-generation logger and labour activist in his win over Susan Collins, a 30-year veteran of the Senate and the last Republican in Congress representing New England.
Jackson, a 58-year-old Bernie Sanders-supporting Democrat from the rural northern part of the state, became the party's Senate nominee after Graham Platner withdrew.
Trade hopes

ILYA GRIDNEFF — CALGARY
Ontario premier Doug Ford was doing "cartwheels" when US midterm results showed voters had rebuffed US President Donald Trump's economic agenda.
Ford, one of the loudest critics of the president's tariffs, which have targeted his province's auto and steel sectors, said the election results were also “a victory for Canada”.
"I'm directing our ministers as soon as everyone gets sworn in, go down to Washington, connect with the senators, the Congress people and, of course, I'll be talking to the governors," he said yesterday.
The premier, who has baited Trump on social media, warned that while Canada may now have “leverage” in the trade war, it is far from over.
Trump has singled out Canada with relentless attacks over the past 18 months, threatening to annex it as the 51st state and imposing tariffs on its steel, aluminium, forestry and auto industry in an effort to rebuild the US manufacturing base.
In return, Ottawa has imposed levies that have hit US border states such as Maine and Michigan especially hard. Democrats flipped Senate positions in both on Tuesday.
“Picking a fight with America’s closest ally fed into a general feeling of the incompetence and bullying nature of this presidency,” said Professor Brian Rathbun, from the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy at the University of Toronto.
“Given his lame-duck status and the decline in Trump’s influence that will become dramatic in light of the results, [Canadian Prime Minister Mark] Carney’s bargaining position is strengthened,” he said.
Carney has yet to comment on the Republicans' electoral wipeout but said on Tuesday that a US trade deal may soon be agreed after talks collapsed in August. "We are making progress, but it's not over yet," he told reporters at a conference in Antigua.
Manitoba premier Wab Kinew posted on X that the American people have delivered “a resounding rejection” of the president’s two years in power.
Washington DC-based Justin Angotti, a lawyer in the International Trade and National Security Group at law firm Reed Smith, said Trump would stay in control of tariff policy so trade relations could remain volatile. “But the presidential election is in two years and you can’t talk about the economy without talking about the tariffs,” he said.
Mood shift
---
ANNA NICOLAOU — NEW YORK
"A hit job". "DUMB AS A ROCK". "Have to go somewhere else until that LOSER is off the air". Donald Trump spent election night glued to Fox News, furiously attacking his favourite TV channel as his party was dealt a historic defeat.
The president complained about the sound of one Fox host's voice, texted another during a live broadcast to demand that he attack her, and accused the network of turning against him.
But before the dust had even settled on an election that swept Democrats to power in both chambers of Congress, Rupert Murdoch's media empire appeared to be contemplating life after Trump.
Shortly after midnight, the Wall Street Journal's editorial board declared that Trump was the “main architect” of the Republican defeat and called for the party to debate what it stood for after him.
The New York Post, Murdoch's famously pugilistic tabloid (pictured), splashed a giant blue tsunami across its front page yesterday, depicting a helpless-looking Trump about to be engulfed by a wave under the headline: "Trump suffers historic rebuke as Dems romp in midterms."
Even on Fox News, the cable television channel where Trump has long
enjoyed the support of some of America's most influential conservative television personalities, the mood had turned muted.
Sean Hannity, one of Trump's staunchest defenders, was asked whether the election would have turned out differently had the US not gone to war with Iran. "One hundred per cent. I don't
think there's any doubt about it," he said.
Laura Ingraham, another longtime Trump loyalist, said the conflict had been “really tough and not well explained”.

The shift comes as Republicans begin to reckon with the scale of their electoral defeat. It raises questions about the future of a political alliance that has helped sustain Trump's dominance of US conservatism over the past decade.
The Wall Street Journal's editorial
blamed Trump's "erratic and self-indulgent" second term for squandering a "rare chance to advance the cause of conservative reform". It concluded: "The GOP needs a debate about what it stands for after Donald Trump, and let's hope it starts this week."
Advancing the conservative cause is
deeply important to Murdoch. He has described his companies as the “protector of the conservative voice in the English-speaking world". Last year, Murdoch agreed to pay more than \$3bn to three of his children to give control of his media empire to his eldest son, Lachlan, after his death – and ensure it remains right-leaning.
The Republican reckoning comes as Fox grapples with a steep drop in its television audience. Fox News's primetime ratings fell 28 per cent in October compared with a year earlier. This week, Fox chief executive Lachlan Murdoch said viewers were "fatigued".
On election night, Trump offered another explanation: Fox's ratings were "collapsing" because the network was "AGAINST me!"
Yet Fox was hardly abandoning its conservative instincts. At 6.01am yesterday, anchor Ainsley Earhardt greeted viewers starkly: "Your wallet and your way of life, in the crosshairs."
While Fox's sentiment may be shifting it remains deeply intertwined with Trump – a feature that was on display even as the votes rolled in.
Karoline Leavitt, who joined the network as a contributor this week after serving as the White House press secretary, told viewers on election night that she had “just talked” to Trump. She defended his record, complaining that the mainstream media had failed to cover his many accomplishments.
At another point during the evening, Trump texted Fox host Greg Gutfeld live on air, demanding that he tell co-host Jessica Tarlov she was “the WORST” before launching into a lengthy defence of his economic record. Gutfeld read the message aloud. Tarlov’s response: “Just press ‘stop’.”
Even while lashing out online at Fox, Trump still called in to the network for a lengthy on-air interview. He spoke to Brett Baier and Martha MacCallum for more than 20 minutes and sounded calm, almost resigned, as they pressed him to explain the stunning losses.
Trump brushed questions about the war in Iran and his cabinet members, and even commended the Democrats for their performance. "It's just a point in time, Brett. There was a mood in the air, I guess," he said. "I've been doing great things for a long time."
US MIDTERMS
Democrats

GEORGE STEER, KATE DUGUID AND HARRIET CLARFELT — NEW YORK EMILY HERBERT — LONDON
Wall Street stocks climbed yesterday, as investors bet that the Democrats' resounding victory in the US midterm elections could restrain White House policymaking that has stirred up global markets.
The S&P 500 was up 1.8 per cent by lunchtime in New York, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 was up 1.6 per cent in a day of big swings as traders tried to pick the winners and losers from an expected Democrat backlash against the AI industry.
The Stoxx Europe 600 closed 1.9 per cent higher, as global equity gains were stoked by falling oil prices. Oil prices dropped to their lowest in two months as the Democrats' landslide victory ratcheted up the pressure on Donald Trump to end his war on Iran.
Brent crude, the international benchmark, fell 8.7 per cent to \$94.60 a barrel after US vice-president JD Vance blamed the conflict for the Republicans' poll wipeout.
The election results pointed to a divided government, with a set-up that typically creates gridlock in Washington and has historically been benign for markets. “Legislative gridlock is good for markets,” said Arun Sai, senior multi-asset strategist at Pictet Asset Management.
The result also offered "a clear repudiation of tariffs and foreign policy that have hit global markets this year", Saisaid.
US stock futures had fallen overnight as results filtered through, but they later rebounded as the Democrats' clear win averted a “worst-case scenario” in which Trump challenged the legitimacy of the results, according to Kristina Hooper, chief market strategist at Man Group.
Shares in US hyperscalers surged as investors bet that established technology companies would prove less vulnerable to a Democrat-led pushback against new data centre projects.
Amazon, Alphabet and Microsoft jumped 7.1 per cent, 4.5 per cent and 7 per cent, respectively. Spending less on data centres would also mean the hyperscalers have more cash left over to service debt or return to shareholders.
"Amazon already has data centres, they've already made their investments," said one US investor who asked not to be named. "It's the guys who need permits who are in trouble."
Shares in CoreWeave and Nebius — “neoclouds” whose market value hinges on their ability to finance and assemble new data centre projects — fell 8.7 per cent and 5.3 per cent. Chipmakers were also hit, with Nvidia losing 1.2 per cent and Micron down 5.4 per cent.
The dollar fell 0.2 per cent against a basket of currencies as investors questioned whether the boost to the economy from AI could weaken. Treasuries strengthened, with the 10-year yield falling 0.05 percentage points to 4.89 per cent. Bond yields fall if prices rise.
“AI and data centre investment are key determinants of US growth momentum,” said Lefteris Farmakis, senior FX strategist at Barclays.
Elon Musk's SpaceX and Tesla lost 2.9 per cent and 3.4 per cent respectively, with investors pointing to greater regulation as a possible threat to both.
Defence stocks also bucked the broader optimism in US markets, amid investor fears that Democrats would curb Trump's promised military spending bonanza. Shares in Lockheed Martin and L3Harris fell more than 6 per cent, while shares in Northrop Grumman dropped about 4 per cent.
There was excitement among defence investors and executives in January, when Trump proposed increasing annual defence spending from \$1tn to \$1.5tn to build a “dream military”.
But relations between defence secretary Pete Hegseth and Congress have soured over the Iran war – and Democrats have vowed to reverse deep cuts to domestic programmes.

MYLES MCCORMICK — DES MOINES
JONATHAN VINCENT, EVA XIAO,
SAM LEARNER AND
MICHAEL TAFFE — NEW YORK
Democrats pulled off a sweep of stunning victories on Tuesday, as voters across geographic and demographic divides swung towards the party in huge numbers.
The “blue wave” proved much more extensive than most polls had predicted, as voters abandoned US President Donald Trump’s Republicans in droves, including in some of the party’s once unassailable heartlands.
These are the FT's top takeaways.
---
Democratic Senate candidates greatly increased their share of the vote when compared with the presidential election result two years ago.
In Texas, South Carolina and Kansas – all states Trump won by double-digit margins in 2024 – Democrats recorded huge gains, marking a massive
deterioration in Republican support in states once considered deeply red.
A similar story unfolded in the House, with Democrats gaining ground in the vast majority of districts, both urban and rural.

Three out of four of Iowa's House seats flipped to the Democrats, while they are set to flip at least three of Colorado's four Republican-held seats.
The two Republican incumbents defending districts won by Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential vote — Mike Lawler in New York and Brian Fitzpatrick in Pennsylvania — lost their races, despite more than \$50mn spent by Republican groups to protect their seats.
The Democrats' gains were broad-based, with the party increasing its support among almost all demographic groups, according to exit poll data from NBC News.
Younger voters swung more than older voters, with 72 per cent of people aged 18 to 29 voting for Democrats, up from 54 per cent in the presidential elec-
tion two years ago.
All racial groups surveyed also moved towards the Democrats. Support among Latino voters – whose shift towards Republicans had played a pivotal role in Trump's victory in 2024 – increased from 51 to 62 per cent.
---
Democrats managed to present a broadly united front despite deep internal divisions over issues from support for Israel to transgender rights and economic populism.
Intraparty schisms reached a peak in the final days of the campaign in Michigan, when Haley Stevens, defeated in the party's primaries, withdrew her support for Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed and instead backed his Republican rival, purportedly over El-Sayed's position on Israel.
But Stevens' defection – branded a
nately galvanised Democrats, driving a surge in donations and volunteers for El-Sayed's campaign in the final days of the race.
In Iowa, meanwhile, Senate candidate Josh Turek provoked anger among the party's base after he came out against transgen-
der athletes participating in women's sport. The move was seen by some as a cynical tack to the right that risked alienating progressive voters. But the party ultimately rallied behind him.
"I had to sort of hold my breath and vote for Turek," voter Jeff Rohrick, 54, told the FT. "I filled in all my bubbles and then I had to go back to his . . . but I voted for a [Democratic] majority in the Senate."

Trump's insistence on inserting himself into the campaign, telling Americans to vote as if he were on the ballot, back-fired for Republicans after a rambling message that focused more on quips and insults than economic concerns.

The president criss-crossed the country in recent months holding rallies he hoped would fire up the Republican base. But as Americans struggled with bruising inflation, Trump's musings about candidates' "pile of muscle" backsides and the "great reflectivity" of his Reflecting Pool renovations fell flat.
“He’s making it hard [for Republican candidates], ’cause he doesn’t keep his big mouth shut,” said Kevin Akers, a 69-year-old Republican voter in Des Moines, Iowa.
Where Trump did address the economy, he spoke about a booming stock market and chunky economic growth that most voters were not feeling as they were squeezed by a surge in inflation driven by his war in Iran, which pushed petrol prices up by a third and sent diesel costs to record levels.

Republicans attempted to improve their odds by redistricting several House races in their favour. Their efforts have largely failed in several states, including Texas and Florida.
In Texas, Republicans redistricted five House districts, roughly corresponding to three typically Democratic cities – Dallas, Houston and San Antonio – as well as counties along the border and Gulf Coast.
Democratic candidates have won four of the five races. The remaining district, Texas's 32nd, was still too close to call, though the Republican candidate had a slight lead.
In Florida, three of the four House districts Republicans redistricted went to Democrats, while the fourth was too close to call, with the Democratic candidate holding a razor-thin edge over his Republican counterpart.
Conversely, Democrats' efforts to redistrict California in their favour appear to be successful so far, with Democrats winning three out of five districts. The other two were leaning Democrat.
---
Trump waded into Republican primaries to unseat incumbents he viewed as not supportive enough of his agenda, and to handpick his chosen candidates. His efforts appear to have backfired.
Ken Paxton, who ousted 24-year incumbent John Cornyn with the president's endorsement this year, handed Democrats a Senate seat from Texas for the first time since 1988. Louisiana senator Bill Cassidy was also defeated in the Republican primary this year by Trump-endorsed Julia Letlow. While Letlow is expected to keep the seat in the Republican column, she led Democrat Jamie Davis by just four points on Tuesday night in a state the president carried by 22 points two years earlier.
Trump also tapped Darline Graham, sister of longtime senator Lindsey Graham, to succeed him on the ballot following his death in July. The president's endorsement carried her past two sitting congressmen and a former governor of South Carolina in the Republican primary, to ultimately lose to Annie Andrews in one of the biggest upsets.
Tech regulation

RACHEL REES AND MADHUMITA MURGIA
LONDON
Bill Gates has accused the Trump administration of stymying efforts to protect against the risks of AI, warning that the technology could be used to cause a pandemic “significantly worse than Covid”.
Speaking at the FT's Future of AI Summit yesterday, the Microsoft co-founder said that AI models' "stunning" capabilities meant "the potential for good, the potential for harm, can't be overstated".
Bad actors using AI tools to create bioweapons or attack cyber vulnerabilities across society posed the greatest immediate risk, he said, particularly given the ability to remove safeguards and monitoring from certain “open” models that are freely accessible to developers.
The “scale of the damage” of a biosecurity incident involving AI could be “significantly worse than Covid”, the tech billionaire warned. An estimated 15mn deaths were linked to the coronavirus pandemic in 2020 and 2021.
Despite these fears, international efforts to regulate and monitor AI and its impacts were being hindered by White House inaction, Gates said. “There’s not much value in acting unless the US is part of that. So we’re kind of stymied . . . The only question is how many bad events need to take place before they change their posture,” he said.
Gates is among the leading tech figures to have warned AI is developing in ways that could lead it to be misused or become beyond human control with disastrous consequences. The billionaire philanthropist has previously warned it could cause a billion deaths and lead to widespread job disruption.
Concerns over the safety of the nascent technology have ignited in recent months, with Anthropic's IPO prospectus last week warning of the potential "catastrophic or existential risks to humanity". Gates praised the frontier lab's honesty about AI dangers: "They've always been very open, and this is another example of that."
Despite the blistering pace of the technology's development, President Donald Trump has rebuffed calls for stricter government regulation of AI, dismissing a bid to develop G20 AI guidelines as a “globalist scheme” and instead favouring self-regulation within the sector.
Self-regulation would not work, Gates said. "As soon as we add multiple companies, then the only way to solve this moves up to the government."
He urged the administration to consider a benchmark for safeguards and monitoring, and to lead a global effort to fix cyber vulnerabilities and institute “massive” monitoring efforts across “air, sewage, blood” to catch potential AI-enabled infections early.
The issue of “the models themselves being out of control” would become a serious concern in the near future, potentially with upcoming models, he added. Gates argued this requires further government work on safeguarding and third-party auditing of new models.
He urged accelerated efforts to reap AI's benefits, such as drug discovery and alleviating hospital waiting lists.
“None of the good stuff happens naturally,” he said. Gates also declared his support for “tax[ing] billionaires” and the ultra-wealthy in a society uprooted by AI, in a seeming endorsement of California’s “billionaire tax” proposal.

Democrats are still toasting the mid-term results, but the US political class is already setting its sights on the next electoral battle: the 2028 race for the White House.
With President Donald Trump constitutionally barred from a third term in office, both major parties will be seeking a candidate for the presidency.
Some of the most successful White House campaigns launched soon after the midterms. Trump's winning 2024 bid was launched in November 2022 from Mar-a-Lago, and Barack
Obama's 2008 campaign began in February 2007.
This means that candidates will, in the coming weeks, start sounding out donors, visiting primary states and getting advice from pollsters and strategists about their viability.
For Democrats the race is very much an open field. The party will hope its sensational midterms performance banishes memories of the disastrous 2024 campaign when President Joe Biden withdrew from the race only four months before election day.

Marco Rubio
On the Republican side, the question for presidential hopefuls will be whether to distance themselves from Trump after the disastrous midterms – or stick with him, betting that a possible endorsement could deliver them the nomination.


Gavin Newsom

Jon Ossoff
JD Vance
Age: 59
Outgoing
California
governor
Newsom presented himself as Trump's chief Democratic antagonist during the first year of his second term, trolling the president with social media posts and attacking him at every turn.
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 14.9%
He has made little secret of his ambitions and may well be among the first out of the gate in terms of positioning himself for the presidency after the midterms. In an interview with late-night comedy host Jimmy Kimmel last week, Newsom forecast the “blue tsunami” that ended up sweeping across the country.
But he has failed to emerge as the clear frontrunner for 2028 in recent months, perhaps a sign that Democrats are looking for a candidate who transcends the image of a coastal liberal that hurt Kamala Harris in 2024.
Source for odds: Polymarket
Age: 39
Senator for Georgia since 2021
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 24.5%
One of the Democratic Party's most effective politicians during this year's midterms, Jon Ossoff comfortably cruised to re-election in a battleground state.
He gave Obama-style speeches on the stump, railing against Trump's enrichment while in office, his failure to tame inflation and the blunders of the Iran war. He mixed it up with viral takedowns of the president — including a jab at Natalie Harp, his close aide, that rankled the White House.
Despite Ossoff's insistence that he has "zero interest" in a White House run, he is currently the Democratic favourite with bookmakers to win in 2028.
Age: 42
Vice-president
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 31.3%
The pollsters' favourite to succeed Trump. Vance comes from Maga's populist non-interventionist faction, which attracts younger conservatives, and he has the backing of prominent tech investors among a wealth of other donors.
But for primary voters, he risks being tainted by the administration's decision to go to war with Iran and failure to reduce inflation. He can also be an awkward campaigner; a stilted exchange with doughnut shop employees became a viral moment in the 2024 election. He will certainly be aware of the dismal record of sitting vice-presidents convincing voters to give them the top job. Only one, George HW Bush, has managed it in the past 190 years.
However, Vance will still have a natural edge going into 2028 in terms of fundraising and name recognition that will be hard to overcome for any rivals.
Age: 55 US secretary of state
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 19.4%
The most likely — and most popular — alternative to Vance. Rubio has certainly endeared himself to the Maga base through his loyalty to Trump, but is still seen as closer to traditional Republican values than the vice-president, which would make him more appealing to older conservative voters and establishment donors.
Trump derided Rubio repeatedly as "little Marco" on the 2016 campaign trail when they were rivals. But he has come to rely on him heavily during his second term, tapping him to be secretary of state and national security adviser — and putting him at the heart of all his biggest foreign policy decisions.
Like Vance, his role in an unpopular administration could weigh against his bid. But Rubio would have the advantage of being able to step down from his job to prepare his candidacy.

Age: 37 Congresswoman for New York
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 16.4%
"AOC" has been a rising star on the left ever since she won a seat in the House of Representatives in 2018 and could succeed Bernie Sanders as the Democratic Party's progressive standard bearer in the primaries.
The New York native has clearly signalled she has broader national ambitions, campaigning aggressively for progressive candidates including Michigan's Abdul El-Sayed, and somewhat

Kamala Harris
Age: 62
Former vice-president
Despite her loss to Trump two years ago, polls show that the former vice-president still has substantial support within the party.
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 3.6%
Her bid for the White House in 2024 was hampered by being only hastily cobbled together following Biden's decision to pull out of the race.
But she would risk running into many of the same problems that dogged her then: stances on both economic and foreign policy that failed to resonate with voters, and her struggle to defend Biden's record. Her 2020 campaign also fizzled out before the primaries even began.

moderating some of her positions to broaden her appeal.
But she has time on her side. She is six years younger than John F Kennedy was when he became the youngest elected president in US history. An alternative option for Ocasio-Cortez might be to run for a Senate seat in New York — if Chuck Schumer, the 75-year-old party leader in the upper chamber, can be persuaded to vacate it in 2028.

Josh Shapiro
Age: 53 Governor of Pennsylvania
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 4.7%
One of the most popular Democratic governors in the country easily secured re-election in the vital swing state of Pennsylvania this week. If he decides to make a run for the White House, Shapiro would represent the moderate, centrist wing of the Democratic Party and likely clash with progressives both on economic policy and regulatory issues as well as foreign policy, where he is known for his pro-Israel views.
---
Age: 48 Businessman
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 1.7%
If Trump decides he wants to keep the Maga sceptre within the family, his eldest son might be the most likely heir.
He has mainly been travelling the world pursuing financial opportunities during his father's second term, but he spent more time than his other siblings on the 2024 campaign trail, and has cultivated plenty of potential donors with his myriad business interests.
Age: 48
Outgoing
Florida
governor
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 14.1%

Ron DeSantis
Recent opinion polls show
DeSantis was the great hope of anti-Trump Republicans during the early stages of the 2024 primaries.
With his second term in office about to end, he is seen as a potential dark horse contender if Republican voters decide it is time to turn their backs on Trump and the Maga movement and revert to traditional conservatism. On the eve of the midterms, he criticised the Trump administration in a radio interview for not doing enough to tackle political corruption.
But DeSantis was unable to translate his popularity and success in Florida into broader national appeal two years ago, a limit that would threaten to dog him in 2028 as well.


Ted Cruz

him running a close third to Rubio. But while Don Jr wouldn't have any trouble with name recognition, he doesn't have his father's raw political charisma. And though Americans have been drawn to dynastic power in the past — including the Bushes and the Kennedys — a continuation of Trumpism from within the family might be a tough sell
Market-implied probability of winning party nomination: 2.5%
Cruz is frequently mentioned by Trump as a possible Supreme Court nominee if another vacancy opens during his second term. But otherwise, he could attempt to mount another White House run after failing to beat Trump in 2016, then declining to challenge him in 2024.
Unlike Rubio, Cruz has kept some distance from Trump so might find it easier to be critical of the administration if the president's approval ratings continue to plummet in 2027. But he is not as close to the younger generation of Republican voters bred during the Maga years as Vance is, which could make it harder for him to break out.

Other Democrats
Rahm Emanuel
The former Chicago mayor and Obama chief of staff is on a publicity blitz to pave the way for a possible 2028 run.

Pete Burningieg
Since serving as Biden's transportation secretary, "Mayor Pete" has become a prominent Democratic campaigner.
Other Republicans
Pete Hegseth
The defence secretary has told friends he is considering a 2028 run. But his controversial record in office could limit his chances.

Robert F Kennedy Jr
The health and human services secretary rules the "Maha" faction of the Republican base. Vance has the higher profile, though.

'Without fear and without favour'

The blue wave that has swept over both houses of Congress is a remarkable victory for US Democrats. More importantly, it is a historic victory for American democracy. Since Donald Trump's second inauguration in January last year, the checks and balances of US governance have been assaulted as never before by the authoritarian impulses of a president. The rebuke Americans delivered at the ballot box is a sign that the fundamental anchors of democracy have held firm. It offers a chance, if Democrats can seize it and Republicans start to see sense, to begin repairing America's political system.
US presidents have suffered stinging midterm setbacks before, from George W Bush's dual-chamber loss over the Iraq war in 2006 to Barack Obama's “shellacking” in 2010. But the sweep of both houses, coupled with the depth of Democratic gains even in decades-long Republican bastions such as Texas and Kansas, is the most comprehensive repudiation of a sitting president since at least 1994.
Saving American democracy may not have been front of mind for most voters but they were certainly exercised about top-level corruption. Above all, this was an election defined by the cost of living. Trump had sworn to end America's "forever wars" and lighten the burden on families. Instead, his tariffs and misbegotten war in Iran stoked prices of fuel and other goods, hitting working-class Americans hardest. Trump also pledged to drain the swamp, not commandeer it for his own profit. To an astounding degree, the president sowed the seeds of his own comeuppance.
US courts, which blocked Trump's efforts to take control of mail-in ballots, played their part in ensuring Americans' voices could be heard without restraint, as did the state officials of both parties who rebuffed demands to hand over unredacted state voter rolls. Republican efforts at gerrymandering appear to have backfired. The outcome was ultimately so unambiguous as to leave the president with little option but to claim he would accept it.
Two main risks still loom. One is that the Democrats are prevented by the veto powers of a vituperative president, or by their own strategic errors or infighting, from any achievement of note in the next two years – hampering their chances in the pivotal 2028 elections. Despite breakthroughs by progressive candidates, they should avoid drifting to the left.
For all the Democrats' justifiable thirst for a presidential impeachment, moreover, Senate arithmetic still means a third attempt would almost certainly be doomed, and would risk re-energising the remnants of the Trump base. Better to focus on investigating and holding to account the profiteering of
Democrats' sweep of both houses, coupled with gains even in Republican bastions, is the most comprehensive repudiation of a sitting president since at least 1994
the Trump family and their associates. For their part, Republicans should recognise the harm the president has inflicted on their political brand and seek to distance themselves.
The other risk – for America, and the world – is that an “angry duck” president uses his control of foreign policy to vent his own frustrations. A rancorous and unrestrained Trump could do immense damage, by relaunching his Iran war or embarking on perilous new escapades elsewhere.
America's uplifting exercise in democracy is only the start of an effort to reverse the damage to US institutions. This will be the task of years. And while Americans have followed Hungarians and Serbs in rebuking crony authoritarianism, the global threat of nationalist populism is far from vanquished. It could soon make further inroads, notably in France. This is, however, a decisive moment in America's political story: the beginning of the end of the age of Trump.

t was no ordinary “Trumpsterz Tuesday Triumph” at the Palm Beach Kennel Club, just a ten-minute drive away from the presidential compound at Mar-a-Lago in southern Florida. Nor was it any ordinary election watch party. It had been billed as a “VICTORY PARTY” (“one of the largest . . . in Palm Beach County!”) with free appetisers (“while supplies last”), a DJ and dancing, altogether just “a spectacular evening!”
It would even function as a kind of after-party too. “We are inviting all other watch party groups to join us for the VICTORY portion of the night,” the flyer had promised. “Whenever YOUR watch party wraps up!”
And the mood at the start of the evening in the Kennel Club's large, carpeted "Paddock Restaurant" did seem jolly indeed. After Trump fans clad in tight red dresses, red Maga hats and
---
star-spangled suits tucked into a buffet dinner of fried chicken, mini sausage rolls, chicken skewers and creamy tomato pasta – quite a generous idea of “appetisers” – it was time for a group singalong to “God Bless America”.
The evening's hosts, a deeply tanned, blonde-curtained 76-year-old named Tommy Gianquitti and a petite 64-year-old in a sequinned TRUMP cheerleading outfit and cowboy boots named Lisa Menk, took to the stage. There they sang loudly into their mics in front of a life-size cardboard cut-out of Donald Trump holding both his thumbs up, as a woman behind me in a "MAKE AMERICA FLORIDA" T-shirt held back her tears.
“Yeeah!” shouted Tommy. “We’re taking the House and the Senate tonight!” I had heard similar optimism from voters coming out of a polling station just a couple of miles north of Trump’s estate. “We’re very confident,” one of the president’s neighbours had told me. “All the polls have been wrong recently, and Republicans traditionally vote on the day.”
Earlier on Tuesday afternoon, the first break from torrential rain in several days was being taken advantage of at Mar-a-Lago (Trump himself was not around, having flown back up to Washington the morning after a lavish Halloween party in which he dressed up as himself). Club members played tennis, maintenance men fixed lights at the front entrance and the pair of surface-to-air missiles installed last week on a floating barge on the tranquil Lake Worth Lagoon amid a “heightened threat environment” gleamed in the Florida sunshine.
As the first results started to trickle in at the Kennel Club, spirits remained relatively high. There was a great cheer for Republican Byron Donalds' victory as the first black governor of Florida and also for Florida GOP Senator Ashley Moody's win over Angie Nixon, a member of the "Democratic Socialists of America". "We got the freak out in Florida – now you need to get the freak out in Texas!" one man shouted to another who must have been visiting and who was clad in a T-shirt covered in different kinds of gun and emblazoned with the words CELEBRATE DIVERSITY. (If he was referring to James Talarico, dubbed "Talafreako" by Trump, Texas went on to make him the first Democrat to win a Senate seat there since 1988.)
It was an odd sort of watch party because although there were huge screens showing Real America's Voice and featuring an improbably large version of Steve Bannon's face, no sound came out. So instead of actually watching, revellers danced at the side of the stage, doing the "Cha Cha Slide" and spinning one another round to "If I Can't Have You", courtesy of a 70-year-old Rastafarian named DJ Clemons, whose original reggae track "Jump for Trump" had set the room alight earlier in the evening.
That also meant it was left to Tommy to read out the results himself, which he seemed to take decreasing amounts of pleasure from as the evening progressed. “Hey I’m just the messenger, guys – I’m sorry,” he said as the crowd booed another Democrat victory. “It’s still early. Let’s continue to party and try to stay positive.”
Alas, the celebratory atmosphere began to ebb rapidly. The dancing petered out as people sat scrolling through their phones instead, and Tommy gave up reading out the bad results entirely. At one point, he tried to get the crowd going again. “The House is still up for grabs! Don’t worry about it!” but he was met with deathly silence. “I’m glad about Florida. That’s about all I’m glad about right now,” a West Palm Beach resident told me.
By 9.05pm, Lisa could be seen behind the life-size cut-out of Trump, struggling to disassemble him, so DJ Clemons jumped up to lend her a helping hand. By 9.18pm, Tommy took to the mic to announce the party's ending to the couple of dozen people still remaining.
"It was festive," was one man's assessment of the night. "For a while."

Reading the coverage of last week's Big Tech results (Report, October 30 and October 31) one might conclude that generative AI had reached Gartner's "trough of disillusionment".
It has not. Capital falling while usage climbs is not disillusionment. It is a settlement, and every contested technology has passed through one: home video after the Betamax case, recorded music after Napster, ride-hailing after the taxi wars.
Each time, consumers adopted first; institutions waited for the lawyers; most early firms died; and the money was repriced just as the rules were settled. The survivors then wrote those rules.
What slows business adoption today is not a mood but a siege: 145 AI copyright suits, rules the largest providers help draft, public anger stoked by the industries AI threatens and, inside the walls, shortages of chips, power and investor patience. A chart of expectations cannot see any of this, because it has no actors.
Boards waiting for the trough to lift are watching the wrong signal. They should watch the gates: the first
are right, nobody broke the cryptography. One compromised laptop was enough to move billions.
An AI agent authorised to initiate and approve withdrawals would reproduce that concentration of power, this time in a machine with no sense of suspicion. It need not go rogue: an ordinary error or a malicious instruction could be enough. The vulnerability lies in allowing one agent to act without an independent check.

John Morley (“What Weil Gotshal has taught us about how law firms die”, Opinion, November 4) sees the departure of rainmakers as an existential threat to law firms. But perhaps he has mistaken the symptom for the disease.
Email: letters.editor@ft.com
The problem is not that successful partners are paid too little. It's that too many ordinary partners are paid far too much. For decades, the large law firm model has depended on clients paying inflated hourly rates to sustain pay levels that would struggle to survive in a genuinely competitive market. Hourly billing has been central to this arrangement. In most businesses, inefficiency eats into profits. In law firms, it can increase them. The mediocre lawyer who takes twice as long to do the job generates twice the revenue.
Perhaps the lesson of Weil is not that law firms need to pay their stars more, but that they need fewer partners, lower fees and a business model in which clients pay for results rather than hours.

We need to be willing to have a more honest conversation about the long-term sustainability of the state pension and the triple lock (“Andy Burnham’s ‘triple lock’ move reallocates, rather than reduces, spending”, Inside Politics, FT.com, October 1).
The debate about supporting an ageing population needs to go beyond pension payments. The traditional concept of retirement no longer reflects how later life looks today. Many people in their sixties and seventies are working, running businesses, caring for family members or contributing to their communities. The objective shouldn't be to make everyone work longer. It should be to give people the health and independence to choose how they spend those years.
That means thinking more seriously about prevention, timely access to healthcare and how we help people remain healthy and active for longer. Poor health can limit someone's independence.
We should be asking not simply how much more we spend on an ageing population, but how public money can best support financial security, good health and quality of life in later years.

FINANCE humping wins for the Democratic Party in Tuesday's US midterm elections open up a path back to something

by Katie Martin
resembling normal life for investors. For years now, money managers have grown accustomed to all sorts of horrors: an on-again-off-again war that has fired up inflation; assaults on the integrity of the markets' most treasured institutions, chiefly the Federal Reserve; and the gaudy spectacle of a self-enriching president blowing up international alliances and picking corporate winners and losers.
You can't necessarily point to the line item in a company's earnings report or flicker in its share price chart where these injuries occurred. But aside from the Donald Trump cheerleaders, everyone understood his agenda as undermining the predictable fair play that supports long-term investments.
Now we have a clobbering that the president is not seeking to bluster or dispute his way out of. The end is in sight. “We have got to get some of the randomness out of the equation,” as Michael Strobaek, chief investment officer at private bank Lombard Odier, put it yesterday. Enhanced checks and balances mean “the Republicans and Trump will be extremely careful what they do in the next two years”, he said.
Stocks did wobble in overnight trading as the results trickled out. But it is rarely worth placing too much
emphasis on flighty price movements in quiet moments of the global trading day. Since then, stocks have picked up markedly.
Still, market enthusiasm may yet be curbed by the risks that lie ahead under the new-look Congress. One is the chance that the new Democratic majorities could point to government shutdowns ahead.
Another is the possibility that newly elected officials at the federal and state level could throw up powerful opposition to data centres – a helpful moderation on AI excesses perhaps, but also a major potential banana skin in the race for AI infrastructure. Goldman Sachs reckons Democratic wins “are likely to lead to short-term data centre moratoria, potentially affecting about 45 per cent of planned US data centre capacity buildout”. Those moratoria may indeed prove to be brief. But widespread protracted blockages in this pipeline are a risk that keep corporate bond investors, in particular, up at night.
Investors have also told me recently they worry that a humiliated Trump could lash out in foreign policy in unpredictable and damaging ways over the next two years, or even seek to punish foreign investors for the perceived sins of their governments.
For now, though, these appear to be distant tail risks. "The market is increasingly likely to interpret surprising policy shifts from the executive as time-bound by the next presidential election or the new
domestic political configuration," said George Saravelos, an analyst at Deutsche Bank.
But there is one obvious way that markets could turn significantly brighter very quickly: an end to (or fizzling out of) the war in Iran. One of the reasons stock indices in the US have been going nowhere for months is this conflict, which has whacked up oil prices, helped to make inflation sticky, and pulled up borrowing costs — a problem for more cyclically sensitive parts of the market. Given the prevalence of diesel prices and the cost of living in the US election campaigns, it appears voters have noticed too.
If Trump were to walk away from Iran on whatever pretext he likes, oil prices would probably tumble even further than they did yesterday. Borrowing costs would fall, and the perceived need for multiple additional interest rate rises would dissipate. It would remove one of the big constraints keeping the stock market trapped. Trump could even claim the credit.
The undisputed election result removes the risk of protracted bickering and uncertainty that could otherwise have hung over investors for weeks. It does not open the gates to nirvana in markets – nothing ever does. But it does point to obvious ways that broad-based market exuberance – not just in AI – could make a comeback.

US MIDTERMS
Edward Luce

uesday night looks like the beginning of the end of Donald Trump. His response to what amounts to America's stinging personal midterm rebuke is likely to be volatile. Yet it is hard to see how he could claw his way back from such a strong Democratic wave having urged voters to act as though his name were on the ballot. Against advice, Trump turned the elections into a referendum on him. He thus owns the Republican defeat.
There were plenty of other losers on Tuesday night. Elon Musk, who pumped more than \$200mn into the Texas Senate race, learnt that even historically large donations can't buy you love or results against so strong a public swing. His candidate, Ken Paxton, lost to Democratic nominee James Talarico, who was not even born the last time a Democrat won a Texas Senate seat. It was also a disastrous night for the once-powerful American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which spent a lot of money trying to defeat Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan. El-Sayed is now set to become the first Muslim senator in US history, having also got the majority of Michigan's Jewish vote.
It was a terrible night for Vivek Ramaswamy, the bombastic Trump understudy, who was defeated in Ohio's gubernatorial race. He might now bow out from politics having spent a chunk of his personal fortune on what was seen only a few months ago as a safe bet. Likewise, the late Lindsey Graham would be turning in his proverbial grave to watch his sister, Darline Graham, lose his South Carolina seat to a Democrat – the first time the party has won a Senate race there in almost 30 years. Many other landmarks have been passed in America's 2026 midterms in what early numbers suggested was a historically high turnout. America seems finally to have fallen out of Trump's spell.
In each race, Trump's heavy-handed input boomeranged. In a telephone interview with me an hour before the first polling stations closed, Trump said he had been energised by the enthusiasm he saw on his frenetic campaign schedule. Presidents normally strive to keep their name out of the headlines in midterm elections. Many avoid the hustings altogether. Trump covered the
map with the energy of a far younger person yet seems only to have exacerbated his party's electoral quagmire.
Not only did Trump thrust himself into the centre of each news cycle; he went out of his way to belittle the electorate's concerns. Affordability was a "Dumocrat [sic] hoax", Trump insisted. Though the Iran war and its inflationary effects was a dominant theme, Trump told voters he had kept every promise. One of those was to avoid wars in the Middle East. Some believe that he showed signs of cognitive decline. “I’ve actually kept far more promises than I made,” Trump cryptically suggested the day before the election.
Perhaps his most psychologically wayward choice was to deliver his big campaign closing speech in front of Washington's Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool — a Trump obsession that few Americans seem to share. In the annals of US political campaigning, no more bizarre closing argument can have been tried. The majority of Trump's one-hour peroration was about the pool.
“The reflecting pool right now looks better than it ever looked,” Trump said, having claimed that both Barack Obama and Joe Biden failed to upgrade the water feature. “We’re replacing all of the grass and all of the parks. Because like the human being, grass has a life also.” Some White House staff watching it on television reportedly buried their faces in their hands as he spoke.
Democrats will now control both chambers of the US Congress in a result that even Trump might find “too big to rig”. There are two immediate consequences. The first is that the Republican campaign to replace him as the 2028 nominee will begin at once. Indeed, Ron DeSantis, the outgoing governor of Florida, arguably kicked that off before the polls had even closed. Without naming Trump, he said no public official should make money from holding office. That suggests an anti-corruption backlash following an election where that theme topped many recent polls.
The second consequence is that Trump's unpredictability is likely to become an even larger feature of his presidency. To those who oppose him, Tuesday night was a lightning strike. But Trump is rarely outbid in the drama stakes. Whichever way he reacts, the 2026 result will change America's course. The 2018 Republican midterm defeat was the end of Trump's beginning, to borrow Churchill's phrase. This week's high turnout a decade after Trump descended that escalator spells the beginning of his end.

POLITICS
Janan Ganesh

n April, the Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán lost power at last. His Italian counterpart and "Christian sister" Giorgia Meloni
misjudged a major referendum just before. Last month, two rightwingers flunked presidential elections: Flavio Bolsonaro in Brazil, Aleksandar Vučić in Serbia. Nigel Farage's Reform UK, which polled 31 per cent in 2025, some feat in a fragmented electorate, has since bled ten percentage points.
Whatever the Latin is for “fairly bad year” – annus horribilis is too strong – populism is living through one. The defeat of US Republicans on Tuesday is its culmination. Not one house of Congress, but both, fell to the Democrats in midterm elections. How did it come to this? In the end, Donald Trump, like lots of populists, forgot the economic bit of populism. Besides a liking for tariffs and a ceasefire in the war against Obamacare, it is hard to distinguish him from a laissez-faire Republican of yesteryear. When consumers were broadly content, this was a minor point. When inflation rose, it became an electoral liability.
Inflation is said to be fatal for incumbents. But Lula survived in Brazil. The UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham has gained in the polls. In 2026, the politicians that inflation really punishes are those who seem callous. Over the past year, as consumers wailed, Trump and his kin made over \$1bn in pre-tax profits, in part from the digital currencies sector. Almost half of 2024 Republican voters, never mind independents, went into the midterms citing White House “corruption, self-dealing and conflicts of interest” as a concern. Things that voters didn’t mind when inflation was low – that were laughed off as part of Maga’s raffish charm – now unhinge them.
Trump's foreign friends run into the same problem. Farage is under investigation over an undeclared gift of £5mn, which is a living wage even in London. Flavio? A money laundering probe. Orbán? Allegations of crony capitalism. The left isn't innocent but politicians of the right have such a blind spot for this stuff, for the resentment it causes in hard times, that terming them "populist" seems excessive flattery.
Even aside from the self-dealing, or suspicions thereof, there is the matter of economic policy. Maga faces two ways on this. It is a movement of “real people” but also bitcoin spivs, of paternalist government but also tech libertarianism, of the deindustrialised Midwest but also the low-tax sunbelt. Something, at some point, was going to make the internal contradictions untenable. Consumer inflation was it. That some of the price surge stems from Trump’s own war in Iran just adds to the poetry of the historical moment.
It doesn't help that populists so often choose silver-spoon leaders. Trump, like Flavio, is a fortunate son. Farage, like Boris Johnson, went to private school in a country where only about 6 per cent of people do that. If these men were economic leftists – “traitors to our class”, in Zhou Enlai’s supposed words – their privilege would be no issue. In fact, if inflation were 1.8 per cent, it would be no issue. But the privilege and the deregulating instincts and the rising consumer prices and the alleged self-enrichment? It makes them almost too easy to frame as out-of-touch. Notice that two of the most successful populists, Meloni and India’s Narendra Modi, really came from the masses they romanticise.

American populism can survive the midterms but in different form: less decadent and libertarian, less billion-

aire-smitten. Under whose leadership, though? Steve Bannon is an economic populist – an AI sceptic – but almost a decade has passed since he was a White House insider. JD Vance seems to understand that Republicans must recover the working-class spirit of 2016. The question is whether that most online of conservatives will ever master interaction with three-dimensional mammals. Trump's genius is to do and say extreme things without weirding people out. When his subordinates attempt it, you fear for the future of the movement.
Perhaps time would have ground Trump down, regardless of his policies. The populists who are polling best, such as the French and German ones, are those who have never governed. The rest have what a British cop might call “previous”. Flavio is tied to his old man’s regime. Farage, though he has never held ministerial office, co-authored Brexit, the UK’s governing meta-idea since 2016. Trump is on his second term, and ninth decade. A president’s last midterms aren’t meant to go well. It is just that, with more economic intervention, or just less feathering of the Trump nest, the result might have been mere defeat rather than total humiliation. He started a class war against elites a decade ago and never lived up to it.
The midterm results should not cheer liberals too much, and not just because Trump will command the world's mightiest armed forces for another 26 months. If it is true that economic grievances are what defeated him, then lots of other important issues didn't. The swing voters' reaction to him seems to go as follows. Attempted election subversion? Bad. Kremlin-abetting? Not OK. Higher prices at the gas pump? Now that is where we draw the line.
If people prioritise their household finances, that is right and natural. At some point, though, for constitutional democracy to survive, voters have to care about the rules of the game too. That it was economics rather than ethics that brought low this most transactional of men is fitting, and perhaps, in a sense, his last win.

s Republicans seek to learn lessons for their post-Donald Trump future, it is important for both the party and the conservative
movement to recognise that the distinctly Trumpian elements of the president's agenda have failed to achieve their objectives and to advance economic prosperity. Of the policies that have been motivated by populism and economic nationalism – marking a sharp departure from the traditional GOP consensus – the most prominent has been the trade war. Its two main goals were to increase manufacturing employment and reduce the trade deficit. Each of these goals is wrong-headed, and neither has been met.
In January 2017, as Trump's first term began, 8.5 per cent of employees worked in the manufacturing sector. In January of 2025, the start of Trump's current term, the share had fallen to 8 per cent, where it remained this September (the most recent month with available data).
Meanwhile, the goods trade deficit has grown larger, not smaller. It has nearly doubled since January 2017. While the deficit has narrowed since January 2025 because businesses rushed to import goods to get ahead of Trump's looming tariff increases, over the past year it grew by 55 per cent.
Trump's push for a sharp reduction in immigrant inflows to the US during his current term has been another signature nationalist-populist policy. The goal was presumably to boost the economic outcomes of native-born Americans. But, according to my calculations, employment rates for the native-born population have fallen since January 2025, while rates for the foreign-born have increased. Comparing September 2026 to September 2025 shows a similar trend, as does comparing economic outcomes among native and foreign-born
Americans aged 25 to 54 over that period. Nor have native-born workers seen their earnings grow faster than immigrants during Trump's current term.
At \$2tn, the budget deficit for 2026 is the largest outside a war or recession in US history. While the GOP's fiscal record leaves much to be desired, Trump's lack of concern about fiscal responsibility is a departure from the norm. Past Repub-
---
lican administrations have pursued – with and without success – cuts to social security and Medicare spending, the main drivers of projected structural deficits.
These failures have hurt the GOP's political fortunes. In an economy with high prices and above-target inflation, Trump's trade war was a political liability. Exit polls showed that nearly two-thirds of midterm voters think Trump's tariffs have hurt the economy.
And although Trump's success at securing the southern border is popular, his deportation and enforcement efforts have been more divisive. Meanwhile, his fiscal policy has put upward pressure on politically salient interest rates, including on home mortgage loans.
Trump's approach has shown a disregard for the rule of law and the principle of limited government. His willingness to weaponise the criminal justice system in order to bend the Federal Reserve to his will eroded a foundation of prosperity and made the US look like a banana republic. Taking equity stakes in private companies, notably Intel, is another threat.
The administration has also often appeared chaotic and ineffective. Although reducing government spending and increasing efficiency are worthy goals, Elon Musk's Doge effort amounted to very little. Similarly, Treasury secretary Scott Bessent's recent efforts to jawbone the bond market into delivering lower yields call into question the administration's competence. All of this contributed to Trump's low approval rating and voters' judgment at the ballot box.
There is still much to admire about Trump's economic programme, including his signature 2017 and 2025 business tax reforms, which will boost productivity growth by encouraging investment. His approach to AI advances has been appropriately guided by the view that the government should "do no harm". And he has encouraged domestic energy production, pushed to deregulate the economy and brought order to the southern border.
These elements of the president's agenda would have fit comfortably in a traditional GOP administration. The failed policies would not.
If Republicans want to keep the White House in 2028, they should look holistically at Trump's economic programme and separate the wheat from the chaff.

s Anthropic prepares to go public, setting in motion an unprecedented race for capital to finance the AI revolution, investors who
are considering buying a stake in this enormous venture should take a moment to think about the scale of rewards that are being handed out to employees and executives.
Most highly valued tech start-ups incur substantial expenses from these payments. Many defer those expenses until after they have joined the stock market.
When Anthropic released its amended listing document on Monday, it projected total unrecognised stock-based compensation expenses of approximately \$32bn – an unprecedented figure.
These massive projected stock-based expenses will probably climb higher. Anthropic disclosed that it has approved additional pre-IPO awards but has not specified the amount.
The scale here is unusual but the behaviour is not. My research shows that US unicorns – venture capital-backed start-ups valued at over \$1bn – that went public between 2014 and 2024 largely deferred recognition of sizeable stock-based compensation expenses until after their IPO. By doing so, they risked catching investors off guard when they released earnings for the quarter in which they went public. If the previously deferred compensation costs were significant, there was a greater risk that the stock market would react negatively.
---
Look at Uber. After the San Francisco ride-hailing company went public in May 2019, it reported \$3.6bn of previously deferred stock-based compensation expenses – something that contributed to a \$5.2bn net loss for the period. The company's share price fell after the earnings announcement.
Anthropic, like Uber, uses a type of equity award called double-trigger restricted stock units (RSUs) to attract and retain talented employees. These are equity awards that provide company shares to executives and employees once certain conditions are met, such as an IPO. Instead of receiving a large salary immediately, employees have the chance for an outsized payday if the start-up goes public or is acquired.
The liquidity-based trigger allows these companies to defer the compensation expenses until the IPO becomes probable. Companies typically justify deferral by saying that the IPO was not probable for any prior reporting period.
This is why Anthropic did not include the accumulated \$8.2bn in stock-based compensation expenses in its reported \$1.26bn operating loss for the nine months to 30 September.
For investors who buy into a company's publicly traded stock before heavy equity award expenses are reported as part of operating expenses, these under-reporting practices can be costly. My research shows that deferring stock-based compensation expenses of \$107mn or more (adjusted for inflation) until after an IPO is associated with a high risk of stock price decline relative to the market.
Expenses do not stop after the IPO either. Companies often intensify employee award activity ahead of a listing, meaning substantial compensation expenses will continue to impact financial results.
Investors in Anthropic stock need to be aware that the company will report massive operating expenses from its pre-IPO award activity this year and, in all likelihood, next year too.
Serious consideration should be given to reforming the accounting rules that permit deferral of stock-based compensation expenses until after an IPO. In order to afford greater protections to investors, start-ups should be pushed to be more transparent about the expenses they expect to report once they become public companies.

Soaring oil and gas prices propel flash estimate to $4\%$ for currency bloc
OLAF STORBECK — FRANKFURT
Eurozone inflation climbed to a three-year high of 4 per cent in October as surging oil and gas prices weighed on households' spending power.
The flash estimate published by Eurostat yesterday was up from 3.8 per cent in September and in line with economists' forecasts in a Reuters poll.
Annual energy inflation continued to rise to 20.8 per cent, the highest level since January 2023 and above the 18.9 per cent rate in September. October marked the eighth month in a row the annual inflation rate in the 21-country bloc was above the European Central Bank medium-term target of 2 per cent.
ECB president Christine Lagarde last week warned that a bigger and longer energy shock was “likely to drive up inflation and lower growth”. She signalled that policymakers stood ready to increase interest rates by a quarter point at their next meeting in December after keeping them on hold last week.
Annual core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, remained unchanged at 2.5 per cent, the figures released yesterday showed.
The closely watched figure for services inflation rose to 3.3 per cent from 3.2 per cent in September. The figure, a gauge of domestic price pressures, has remained well above the ECB's target for more than three years.
“Energy prices were front and centre” in October’s inflation rise, said Moody’s Analytics economist Kamil Kovar, who warned that the hit would continue in the coming months, when “lower wholesale oil and diesel prices will be more than compensated by higher gas and electricity prices”.
Kovar said he expected that the ECB would raise interest rates not only in December, but also “likely in March”.
Carsten Brzeski, global head of macro at ING, said: "Today's inflation numbers have brought the central bank one step closer to a December rate hike." He also pointed to "muted underlying inflationary pressure", which he saw as an argument that "the December hike could also be the last one".
Analysts at Pantheon Macroeconomics said an impending change of top figures at the ECB had introduced a “wild card” for next year’s policy outlook.
If Lagarde and executive board member Isabel Schnabel were replaced by dovish candidates, the governing council could end up “erring on the side of holding fire” on raising rates beyond 2.75 per cent, they said.
The ECB has already increased borrowing costs twice since the start of the
US-Iran war in February triggered a surge in oil and gas prices, raising its benchmark rate by a quarter point in June and again in September.
Worries over higher inflation and rising public debt triggered a surge in Eurozone borrowing costs in recent weeks, pushing yields of French 10-year government bonds above 5 per cent last month for the first time since 2002. They have since retreated slightly.
The euro, which had gained against the dollar since the US midterm election results, was little moved by the inflation figure. The single currency was up 0.2 per cent against the greenback by late afternoon in London, at \$1.122. Additional reporting by Ian Smith

Asian nation prioritises its relationship with Moscow amid strained Kyiv ties
DANIEL TUDOR — SEOUL
South Korea's President Lee Jae Myung was effusive as he welcomed home the crew of the container ship PanStar Acro from a voyage across the Arctic.
Hailing the crew's “courage and sense of responsibility” on “distant seas”, Lee pledged to “answer with unwavering action and open a new path for the Republic of Korea”.
European diplomats in Seoul were less enthused. Sailing the Northern Sea Route, which hugs the Russian Arctic coast, shaves 10 days off European journeys via the Suez Canal but requires extensive co-operation from Moscow.
The voyage, South Korea's first, which returned last month, was emblematic of what European officials see as a diplomatic and commercial tilt by Seoul towards Moscow, even as the Kremlin deepens its partnership with North Korea and continues its war in Ukraine.
Those concerns were heightened by reports last month that more than 176,000 tonnes of fuel, mostly diesel, were shipped from South Korea to Russia in July and August, including aboard tankers subject to UK and EU sanctions.
Seoul's relationship with Moscow has prompted some European diplomats to question whether South Korea – which they saw as a “like-minded” democracy, with shared economic and security interests – remains a reliable partner.
"[The South Koreans] aren't really 'like-minded'," said one Seoul-based European diplomat who requested anonymity. "The attitude is that the [Ukraine] war won't last for ever, and they want to get right back into business with Russia as soon as it's over."
European concerns over Seoul's attitude to Russia predate Lee's presidency. South Korea's lax enforcement of its export controls on computer numerical control (CNC) machines, which can be used to produce munitions, has been a particular source of frustration.
In February 2025, two Korean executives were convicted of illegally exporting CNC machines worth Won7.3bn (\$5.5mn) to Russia, but they received suspended one-year prison terms and the company was fined just Won40mn.
Some observers say those concerns have grown under Lee, who took office
Hero's welcome: South Korean President Lee Jae Myung makes a speech during the ceremony to hail the return of a container ship from a voyage across the Arctic Yonhap/Reuters
in June 2025. Mason Richey, professor of international politics at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies in Seoul, said that South Korean-Russian relations had been “improving quietly” since last autumn.
In November 2025, the Institute for National Security Strategy, which is affiliated with Korea's National Intelligence Service, held a closed-door conference with the Russian International Affairs Council, a Kremlin-backed think-tank aimed at finding opportunities for political dialogue and “prospects for expanding economic co-operation”, according to the RIAC website.
In June, INSS president Kim Seongbae travelled to Moscow for a closed-door strategic dialogue with Russian counterparts, according to RIAC.
Last month, Lee appointed Song Young-gil, a former leader of his Democratic Party, as special adviser for peace diplomacy. Song, who also served as a presidential envoy to Russia, has long advocated for closer ties with Moscow, and was awarded Russia's Order of Friendship by President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin in 2013.
Richey said officials such as national security adviser Wi Sung-lac and those around foreign minister Cho Hyun appeared to be losing influence with Lee, while those such as Song are “the ones who seem to have the president’s ear on the Russia file”.
Russia's deputy foreign minister Andrey Rudenko last month said that Moscow had received “statements from South Korean authorities regarding their ambitions to normalise” relations once the Ukraine war was over, according to Russia’s state-owned Tass news agency.
In a statement sent to the FT, South Korea's foreign ministry said: "Concerns in some quarters that South Korea is leaning too heavily towards Russia are inconsistent with the facts.
"As a responsible member of the international community, the South Korean government supports and participates in global efforts aimed at ending the war in Ukraine and restoring peace."
A South Korean national security official denied exports of diesel, petrol and jet fuel to Russia, adding that the
'The attitude is that the [Ukraine] war won't last for ever, and they want to get right back into business with Russia as soon as it's over'
authorities were investigating whether destinations had been falsely declared.
Meanwhile, Seoul's relationship with Kyiv has deteriorated following a dispute over the disclosure in September that two North Korean prisoners of war had been transferred from Ukraine to South Korea.
Lee has accused Kyiv of violating a secrecy agreement over transfer and demanded an apology. Seoul last month recalled its ambassador to Kyiv, its first such move since 2008, while Korea's foreign ministry said it would withdraw additional embassy staff. Ukrainian officials have disputed the Korean account, calling it a “diplomatic misunderstanding”.
Kim Saeme of the Asan Institute for Policy Studies warned against over-emphasising a South Korean “tilt” towards Russia, arguing that Lee’s administration has “moved away from what was described as ‘values-based diplomacy’ and is pursuing a more pragmatic and interest-driven approach”.
She added that Seoul's approach to Moscow reflected a longstanding view of Russia as a powerful neighbour that it cannot afford to ignore or antagonise.
“South Korean foreign policy has historically been conceptualised through the framework of ‘four major powers’: the United States, China, Japan and Russia,” Kim said.
But she questioned the relevance of that legacy, arguing that contemporary relations with Moscow “must begin with the recognition that Russia is helping to strengthen North Korea’s military capabilities, which is increasing the security threat to South Korea itself”.
Ramón Pacheco Pardo at King's College London, meanwhile, noted that several European countries remain significant customers of Russian energy. France doubled its imports of Russian liquefied natural gas in September from the previous month to €446mn, according to the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air. "Europe doesn't have a unified position towards Russia," Pacheco Pardo said.
European leverage is also limited by the increasing importance of South Korea's defence industry, which has helped replenish European stockpiles drawn down to arm Ukraine. Poland alone has ordered more than \$18bn of Korean tanks, howitzers, fighter jets and rocket launchers since 2022.
European governments “still need weapons – precisely because of [the Ukraine] situation”, Richey said.
'Blocking statute'
---
SUZI RING — LONDON
LAURA DUBOIS — BRUSSELS
A senior official at the International Criminal Court urged the EU to immediately implement protections against sanctions imposed by the Trump administration, saying it was “unfair” the court and its providers are managing the burden alone.
ICC registrar Osvaldo Zavala Giler, who is overseeing the court's response to the sanctions, said the EU should activate a "blocking statute" allowing European companies to disregard the US extraterritorial sanctions.
"Our position is that we should do this as soon as possible," Zavala Giler told the FT. "It's an instrument that is re-asserting European sovereignty."
The US announced sweeping sanctions against the ICC last month in an escalation of Trump's campaign to dismantle what he calls an “anti-American tribunal”. The October sanctions order gave most companies 180 days to stop trading with The Hague-based war tribunal.
The blocking statute would allow European companies to not comply with US extraterritorial sanctions, meaning they could continue providing services to the court. However, EU countries and the European Commission have been reluctant to take any measures before the sanctions take full effect.
“What I think is unfair [is] . . . we are now in a situation where banks and other service providers are the ones that have to assess by themselves the risk of co-operating with the court or not, rather than having this done at the state level,” Zavala Giler said.
The European Commission said: “We continue to pursue diplomatic outreach, jointly with other state parties, with the objective to have the sanctions lifted. We stand ready to take any measures necessary to protect the court’s work.”
The ICC cut ties with its health insurance provider, Axa, last month in the face of looming sanctions over fears they would force the insurer to stop doing business with the court.
Announcing the sanctions last month, US secretary of state Marco Rubio said the aim was to find “a diplomatic solution” that addressed US “concerns” before the deadline expired, without specifying what that would involve.
EU countries have since said this “creates space for diplomacy, with a view to securing the prompt reversal of these measures”, according to conclusions agreed by EU leaders in mid-October at their last summit.
In late October, the Commission told companies to “continue providing services to the ICC as before, enabling the court to continue carrying out its mandate in full” while diplomatic negotiations were ongoing.
"Political reassurances, political support is very effective and it's important . . . but it needs to be matched with real legal and operational certainty," said Zavala Giler.
He said it was not clear what “solution” the US was looking for. The court has not engaged in any direct talks with the US in a bid to protect its independence, instead relying on the EU and states to advocate on its behalf.

A. ANANTHA LAKSHMI AND DIANA MARISKA — JAKARTA
Indonesia has deployed 20,000 soldiers to the streets of the capital and arrested three senior police officers as a scandal erupted over the alleged wiretapping of the country's president, already under pressure as economic woes mount.
Two senior police officers and President Prabowo Subianto's chief of staff — a former national chief of police — were arrested, according to Asep Safrudin, head of the police's Criminal Investigation Agency.
“[They] are suspected of illegally tapping the telephone numbers of the president of the Republic of Indonesia, state officials, political figures, media, mass organisation figures, NGOs and businessmen,” Asep said in a news conference late on Tuesday.
The scandal has sent shockwaves through Indonesia and has added to concerns about fraying ties with allies, as the president faces falling approval ratings, criticism of his signature policies and souring market sentiment.
Military officials said yesterday that more than 20,000 troops and personnel would be deployed in the capital Jakarta. Military spokesperson Muhammad Nas said the troop deployment was standard practice to maintain security and unity.
"This situation could weaken the ruling coalition as Prabowo's growing sense
of insecurity breeds mutual suspicion among coalition partners," said Nicky Fahrizal from the Jakarta-based Centre for Strategic and International Studies. "Political instability is bound to escalate."
Asep identified the suspects only by their initials, per Indonesian law enforcement practice, but officials have confirmed that they included Listyo Sigit Prabowo, who was made Prabowo's chief of staff last month. Listyo, who is not related to the president, was dismissed from that role yesterday.
Asep said the wiretap was conducted “non-procedurally” between 2025 and 2026, and the three suspects ordered the deletion of wiretapping files in October to cover their tracks.
The three suspects have been charged under the criminal code for unlawful practices threatening security and under the electronic information law for illegal wiretapping and unauthorised deletion of electronic data. The FT could not reach the suspects for comment, and they have not released any statements via their lawyers.
"We can consider this an act leading to treason . . . jeopardising the security of state interests, including endangering the safety of the head of state," said state secretary Prasetyo Hadi yesterday, though he added that their motivation remained unclear.
Listyo was appointed national chief of police in 2021 by the president's predecessor Joko Widodo, and the two have longstanding ties, with Listyo serving as police chief in the city of Solo when Widodo was mayor.
Corruption concerns

FABRICE DEPREZ — KYIV
PAOLA TAMMA — BRUSSELS
MARTON DUNAI — BUCHAREST
Ukraine is falling behind Moldova on its path to EU membership because of its sputtering efforts to root out corruption, the European Commission has said.
The two eastern neighbours applied to join the bloc in 2022, following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, and have advanced in tandem ever since.
But in its annual enlargement reports published yesterday, Brussels said Chişinău was on track to close membership talks by early 2028 while Kyiv would need another year and an “acceleration of the pace of reforms” to complete the process.
The Commission also said Montenegro could sign its accession treaty by the middle of next year. It would be the first new member since Croatia's 2013 accession, if approved by EU governments and the European parliament.
While praising Ukraine's efforts "in the face of most difficult circumstances brought by Russia's war of aggression", the Commission said Kyiv still needed to "demonstrate significant progress" in tackling corruption.
Ukraine's anti-corruption agencies have kept operating during the war and exposed schemes that forced President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to sack several ministers and senior officials last year.
Brussels has set up a “dedicated task force” to help Ukraine “urgently and significantly step up the pace of the rule of law reforms”. It also noted a recent acceleration of the “reform momentum” as Ukraine’s parliament passed a series of bills demanded by the EU to unlock crucial financial support.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy fired several ministers over corruption last year
Katarína Mathernová, EU ambassador to Ukraine, said the decoupling from Moldova was not meant to play down the progress Kyiv had made so far. "I think the fact that Ukraine keeps up the pace [of reforms] in the fifth year of the war and in the middle of this incredible escalation since late summer is actually remarkable in itself," she said.
Zelenskyy last month warned that decoupling the two countries would be “morally wrong”, adding that Ukraine was preventing Russia from causing “trouble” in Moldova’s breakaway region of Transnistria.
Ukraine's financing for coming years is also under threat. The country faces a €70bn gap next year, of which the Commission vowed to cover two-thirds, which could include issuing joint debt.
The Commission said Moldova's goal of closing accession talks by early 2028 was "ambitious but achievable".
Moldova's pro-EU president, Maia Sandu, said she was "pleased" by the Commission's report, which "reflects Moldova's steady progress".

Healey promises that rules to ringfence ‘preventative’ measures will save money
GEORGE PARKER AND CHRIS SMYTH
LONDON
JENNIFER WILLIAMS — MANCHESTER
Chancellor John Healey has promised a major overhaul of public spending controls, vowing that new rules to ringfence “preventative” programmes would save money further down the line.
Healey said next year's spending review would mark "a big long-term shift" by protecting investment that stops problems escalating with the creation of a new category of spending.
"For too long, governments have spent more dealing with the consequences of problems rather than getting ahead of them," Healey told the FT. "This leaves people worse off and taxpayers picking up a bigger bill."
He added: “In this way we can deliver better public services while getting better value for every pound we spend.”
Treasury officials have been sceptical about the idea of a so-called preventative departmental expenditure limit, or PDEL. But Healey believes the PDEL would help reduce overall spending, with some Treasury insiders describing the move as “quietly radical”.
It comes ahead of next year's spending review – unlikely to happen until autumn – which will put Healey under pressure to find £11bn a year for higher defence spending and billions of pounds more to fund stretched public services.
Yvette Cooper, health secretary, yesterday called for large chunks of the £200bn NHS budget to be left untouched in the spending review after Healey introduced the new ringfence for pre-emptive spending.
"I do think a lot of our treatment services have an impact in terms of saving money elsewhere," the health secretary said, speaking to the Commons health committee. "Mental health is a really good example of that."
Other areas that could be covered include spending to reduce youth offending and homelessness, education and efforts to tackle violence against women and children.
One Healey ally said: “This is not some sneaky way to spend more money.” They added that “tough decisions” would be made to cut money in other areas “downstream” of where the preventative spending was being allocated.
Anita Charlesworth, at the King's Fund think-tank, who pushed for the adoption of PDEL, rejected the scepticism among Treasury officials who have argued that classifying preventative spending will be difficult.
"The focus should be on activities whose principal purpose is prevention," she said, which would capture about 5.6 per cent of health spending.
"The same approach could be applied across public services: in children's social care, for example, early-help and family-support services can be distinguished from acute intervention," Charlesworth added.
The idea of PDEL was promoted by the Demos think-tank as a way of “injecting long-termism into public spending”.
Prime Minister Andy Burnham placed a significant focus on prevention during his later years as mayor of Greater Manchester.
Last year's 10-year NHS plan agreed to make the city region a national model in the field, giving it more flexibility over funding pots to create neighbourhood “Live Well” hubs bringing together GPs, employment support, housing advice, social care, police and voluntary services.

MARIA CRAWFORD
Edmund Richardson has won the 2026 Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction for Alexander: God, King, Man, a historical biography of Alexander the Great that draws on cutting-edge technology to retell the story of one of the ancient world's most notorious leaders.
Richardson, a British professor of classics at Durham University, based the book on more than a decade of research into Alexander's nearly 2,400-year-old story. This included translations of contemporaneous accounts in 12 languages and computer simulation techniques used to recreate details of his military campaigns, from the night sky on the date of a given battle to the volume of food and water needed to fuel his vast armies.
“You feel like you’re there on the battlefield,” said chair of judges Kirsty Lang. “It’s blockbuster history with page-turning narrative pull, a cracking cinematic story about the ancient world involving a masterful assembly of research materials alongside exceptional literary craft.”
Alexander, aged 20, inherited the “bankrupt” kingdom of Macedon and, in desperation, went on to lead his army east. Richardson traces his ascent to the status of hero and then god — as well as the levels of cruelty and destruction that accompanied it.
Lang highlighted the crucial role of Richardson's academic work in underpinning the book, which is published by Bloomsbury in the UK and St Martin's Press in the US.
"The humanities in this country have been underfunded," Lang said. "This is an example of the kind of amazing research that is happening in our universities, and it's important."
The other books on the shortlist were London Falling by previous Bailie Gifford winner Patrick Radden Keefe; Baldwin: A Love Story by Nicholas Boggs; Days of Love and Rage: A Story of Revolution by Anand Gopal; The Great Dictator: A Life of Barbara Cartland by Matthew Sweet; and The Traveller: The Revolutionary Life of George Forster and his Search for Humanity by Andrea Wulf.

Veeraswamy
in court battle
to stay on
Regent Street

Veeraswamy has occupied its premises for 100 years. Above, Martin Bennewith, Manita Panjabi and Ranjit Mathrani deliver a petition to Buckingham Palace in February
The UK's oldest Indian restaurant will go to court today in an effort to retain its place on London's Regent Street, arguing that its landlord would have shown greater respect had it served more traditionally British cuisine.
Veeraswamy, which has one Michelin star, has occupied its first-floor premises in the capital's premier shopping zone for 100 years.
The Crown Estate informed it in 2024 that its lease would not be renewed, owing to the need to carry out a “comprehensive refurbishment” of Victory House.
The building has empty offices upstairs following a flood.
Ranjit Mathrani, a former investment banker who chairs Veeraswamy's owner, MW Eat, said the landlord had said it would be unsafe to undertake renovations with the restaurant still in place, and that in future it could receive higher rents from office tenants.
“We have done everything to meet their concerns,” said Mathrani. “It is obvious that they do not appear to have sufficient regard for Veeraswamy and its tradition, its background, its role, and its culinary heritage. Would they actually have taken the same stance had it been a cuisine with which they were more familiar?
"Would they have done that to Gordon Ramsay? No."
The Crown Estate said: “We strongly refute any suggestion that The Crown Estate prefers particular types of cuisine. We are proud to have a diverse dining offer across our West End portfolio, reflecting the diversity of London itself.”
The body, which manages the monarchy's property portfolio and whose profits are passed to the government, wants to convert the restaurant space into a reception area.
It said that the end of Veeraswamy's lease was "not a decision we've taken lightly".
MW Eat had offered to pay the same rents the estate would have collected from office tenants, or to purchase a 35-year lease for the whole building and undertake the refurbishment works itself.
However, the estate said such proposals did not meet “our responsibilities as stewards of this heritage-listed building, our legal obligations and our responsibilities to manage public money”.
It has offered to help the restaurant relocate to new premises and offered financial compensation.
Mathrani said the estate offered compensation of £500,000, 20 per cent more than the statutory amount. That was a fraction of the £5mn required for such a move, he said.
No alternative locations had been offered, he added, and the restaurant wanted to stay anyway.
Under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, tenants in commercial buildings generally have the right to remain in their premises and assume new leases when their existing ones expire, unless landlords can cite at least one of seven grounds.
In this case, the Crown Estate is arguing the lease should not be renewed on the grounds that access is needed to carry out works, which MW Eat will contest.
Over the past two years, Veeraswamy has collected more than 20,000 signatures for a petition that it presented to Buckingham Palace. King Charles III has not so far intervened.
A cadre of British chefs including Michel Roux Jr and Tom Aikens published a letter last year calling on the estate to “act responsibly”, and that turning the restaurant into offices would be a “profound loss”.
MW Eat was bought by Canadian financial group Fairfax last year.

Rates pressure

VALENTINA ROMEI, SAM FLEMING AND DELPHINE STRAUSS — LONDON
Rising energy prices will push inflation to its highest pace in three years around the start of next year, according to economists surveyed by the FT, adding to pressure on the Bank of England to raise interest rates ahead of the central bank's interest rate decision today.
Inflation is expected to peak at an average of 4.4 per cent, the survey of 12 economists that was conducted this week found, with most expecting that price growth will reach its highest level in the first quarter of next year.
All but one respondent expected inflation to peak above 4.1 per cent, while five forecast a peak of between 4.5 and 5 per cent.
It comes as the BoE prepares to set out its own inflation and growth outlook at midday today after a meeting that is widely expected to agree a quarter-point increase in its key interest rate.
The economists' forecasts are significantly higher than the latest projections from the Office for Budget Responsibility, published last week, which show inflation peaking at 3.8 per cent in the first quarter of next year.
But the OBR's economic forecasts were based on market prices for oil and gas in mid-August, before a re-escalation in the Middle East war drove them sharply up. Yesterday oil prices fell following a report of diplomatic progress between the US and Iran.
"The inflation outlook is becoming increasingly uncomfortable for the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee," said Ellie Henderson, economist at Investec and one of those surveyed, who expects inflation to peak at 4.4 per cent next February.
She said that Ofgem's energy price cap being on track to rise by more than 25 per cent in January, alongside indirect effects of the oil price shock following the Iran war, was likely to feed through to the prices of other goods.
At the beginning of this year, the BoE said it believed it was on track to meet its official inflation target of 2 per cent, paving the way for rate reductions. Instead, the outbreak of the war in Iran in late February led to skyrocketing energy prices and rising inflation.
Household energy bills are set to jump nearly £470 in January to about £2,200 a year for a typical household, according to EDF Energy estimates.
Inflation has already risen to 3.5 per cent in September, its highest level in almost a year. Inflation at 4.4 per cent would be the fastest since October 2023, when it hit 4.6 per cent.
In July, the central bank forecast inflation would peak at about 3.2 per cent in the final quarter of 2026. Robert Wood, economist at the consultancy Pantheon Macroeconomics, said the outlook had changed for the worse since then.
“Inflation will peak around 5 per cent based on recent energy prices and run above 3 per cent all of next year,” he predicted.
OBR officials acknowledged last week that energy prices were now “substantially higher” than those on which its economic forecasts were based and that its inflation forecast for early 2027 would have been “somewhat higher” based on current market pricing.

Critical resources
PETER FOSTER — LONDON
The UK is “dangerously exposed” to the risk of China cutting off access to critical raw materials despite more than a decade of warnings about Beijing’s willingness to exploit its dominance of the industry, MPs have warned.
More than 15 years after China cut off supplies of rare earth metals to Japan after a spying row, successive British governments have failed to cut reliance on China for critical minerals used in defence, auto and green industries, a report for the business, innovation, science and trade committee said.
Committee chair Liam Byrne said that failure to build resilience and diversify supplies of the materials away from Beijing continued to pose significant risks to the UK's future security.
“Critical minerals are the alpha of the new economy. We cannot re-arm Britain, build AI or deliver net zero unless we secure the minerals these technologies depend on. Sixteen years after China first weaponised its chokehold over rare earths, Britain remains dangerously exposed,” he said.
China continues to process more than 80 per cent of the world's rare earth metals alongside other key materials, such as graphite and manganese, that are critical to the production of batteries used in the net zero transition.
The report noted that concerns about China's chokehold on rare earths rose to prominence as early as 2010 after Japan detained a Chinese trawler captain. Beijing promptly blocked supplies of some key rare earths to Japan, causing a 26-fold increase in prices.

Last summer, Beijing again cut off some rare earth metal supplies to Europe and the US following the start of US President Donald Trump's trade war, bringing several auto plants to the brink suspending production.
The committee called for a targeted “precision de-risking” of the UK’s critical mineral supply chains to help counter the threat of economic coercion.
To combat the challenges, the committee set out a five-point plan, including improving access to finance for criti-

cal mineral processing, maximising domestic mining and creating a “buyers’ club” among like-minded allies to share costs of building new mines and smelters that can cost £3bn each.
“We’re never going to eliminate Chinese minerals from our supply chains,” Byrne said. “That’s why we need a new Critical Minerals Finance Facility with the financial firepower to invest in new mines, processing plants and recycling, working with allies to share the costs.”
The government set out a 10-year critical minerals strategy a year ago that promised to grow domestic production and forge international partnerships in order to diversify supply chains.
It cited innovative new projects to lift supplies, such as research from Queen's University Belfast to find new ways to recycle permanent magnets used in wind turbines and electric vehicles.
The committee's report follows another it released this week that criticised the government over policymaking on how to handle China.
It described the UK's approach to the country as being characterised by "reactivity, inconsistency and opacity". Refiner Solvay strikes deal page 17

JENNIFER WILLIAMS — MANCHESTER growth in every postcode", including through "re-industrialisation".
When the developer Tritax Big Box first sought to build part of a vast freight hub on Wigan's greenbelt, the Labour-led council was supportive.
Intermodal Logistics Park (ILP) North would be a future source of “substantial high-quality employment”, said Wigan council in its draft planning blueprint last year.
This summer it had a sudden change of heart. “This is not economic development,” Labour councillor Jenny Gregory told colleagues in September as the authority voted to formally reject the site’s removal from the greenbelt. “It’s the industrialisation of an area that cannot absorb it.”
The loss of almost two dozen councillors to Reform UK in May's local elections, combined with vocal local opposition to greenfield development, has prompted an about-face in the borough where Andy Burnham is now an MP.
Wigan, a former industrial powerhouse that sits between Manchester and Liverpool, had long prioritised logistics because of its proximity to the M6 and M62. But in August its leadership scrapped all four of the major employment sites from its draft local plan, featuring distribution, manufacturing, tech space and housing.
Rob Ford, professor of politics at the University of Manchester, said the situation captured the policy trade-offs facing Burnham, who as prime minister has promised devolution but also “good
“It’s also a microcosm of the political problem he inherited,” Ford added. Labour lost hundreds of councillors to Reform and the Greens last year, destabilising the party’s power base and leaving Labour councillors fearful of next May’s elections.
Anxiety over industrial development has amplified in Wigan since one imposing warehousing scheme drew national attention last year for its proximity to residential housing.
The sheds at PLP-operated Astley Business Park, which are up to 18 metres in height that cover a space equivalent to about five football pitches, were likened to “cruise liners”.
Labour lost all but one of the candidates it fielded to Reform in Wigan, where a third of seats were up for grabs.
About 500,000 sq m of employment space and housing have now been dumped from its proposed 13-year local plan, which will form the framework for planning applications.
Gregory, whose ward is most affected by the Tritax plan, told Labour colleagues last month that any planning application from the developer would be treated as “hostile”.
But the proposal has national significance, including for Burnham. ILP North would comprise 767,000 sq m of logistics and associated employment space, focused on a new rail hub intended to free up freight movement across the north-west.

As Greater Manchester mayor, Burnham requested about £200mn from the Treasury to move rail freight from Manchester to the new hub.
“That money [would be] spent at ILP North,” he told the FT in March last year. The plan would also free up space for the redevelopment of Manchester United’s Old Trafford stadium.
But the funding was refused and Burnham then expressed “major concerns” about the scale of ILP North.
ILP North would span two mayoral-ties, at a time when his government has put devolution at the heart of its agenda.

About two-thirds of it would sit in St Helens as part of the Liverpool City Region freeport, on the largest employment site available. Liverpool's mayor Steve Rotheram, a close friend of Burnham, has championed the scheme.
The rest would spill over into fields in the village of Lowton, Wigan, about a mile from the prime minister's home.
Gareth Edwards, a local resident who has campaigned against the scheme, said Lowton's roads were already swamped by heavy goods vehicles thundering through from the nearby M6.
“It really is on our doorstep,” said Edwards of the Tritax proposals, adding that residents would be “shocked” by the scale of what is proposed. “It’s good that Wigan has sat up and reacted.”
Burnham, who met residents to hear their concerns about a year ago, wrote to the local authorities in January, expressing “significant concerns” about ILP North’s impact on local communities.
The council's original draft local plan, published in 2025, prioritised “new high-quality employment sites” that take advantage of the borough's location on the M6, the East Lancashire Road into Manchester and a planned “growth

corridor" between Wigan and Bolton. Its subsequent U-turn has left investors weighing up the tension between local, mayoral and national policy.
Two of the four employment schemes pulled from the plan are owned by northern development giant Peel. This summer Wigan council also objected to the group's master plan for Gibfield Park, a greenfield development that has been in train for more than a decade.
The 45,000 sq m mixed-use scheme is part of the Northfold growth corridor, which has already been allocated funding from Burnham's Good Growth Fund. Peel did not respond to requests for comment.
Dane Anderton, Wigan council's Labour cabinet member for economic development and regeneration, said the local authority was focused on “the right type of growth in the right places”.
Tritax said its planned hub “would strengthen rail freight capacity between the north-west, UK ports and wider markets”.
The saga reflects the balancing act facing Burnham between national growth ambitions and a volatile political landscape leading into next May's local elections, said Ford.

OLIVER BARNES — NEW YORK
CVS Health is breaking up its \$117bn healthcare empire, separating its retail pharmacy chain from its insurance business in what will rank as one of the largest corporate splits of all time.
The move unwinds two decades of megadeals that transformed CVS from a drugstore chain – starting life as a single outlet in Massachusetts – into a vertically integrated healthcare conglomerate spanning an insurer, pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) and retail pharmacy.
CVS yesterday confirmed it planned to spin off its retail pharmacy division, whose roughly 9,000 stores are projected to generate a third of the group's ket value stood at \$116.9bn at Tuesday's close, more than double its value at its nadir. Its shares were down 12 per cent during afternoon trading yesterday.
CVS is fighting states' legislation to ban companies from owning PBMs and pharmacies. Lawmakers in Arkansas and Tennessee were the first two states to introduce such measures.
Tennessee's state legislature this year passed the Fair Rx Act banning ownership of pharmacies by companies which run both a PBM and insurer. CVS and its rival Cigna have sued to try to block the measure, which is set to take effect in 2028. In Arkansas, a judge blocked the law, introduced in April last year, pending further review.

\$420bn in revenue this year, as a separate listed company known as CVS Pharmacy. The separation would complete by the first half of 2028, it added.
David Joyner, CVS chief executive and chair, will run the remaining slimmed-down healthcare solutions business. It will focus on Caremark, the pharmacy benefit manager bought in a \$27bn takeover in 2007, and health insurer Aetna, acquired for \$78bn in 2018.
The break-up comes as the sector faces political pressure challenging the combined ownership of pharmacies and PBMs, which manage prescription benefits for insurers and employers.
Shares in CVS have bounced back under Joyner, who took over in 2024, driven by a turnaround at its Aetna insurance unit. Its stock sank to a 10-year low in December 2024. CVS's mar-
These changes have gained broad bipartisan support in Washington. In the US Senate, Democrat Elizabeth Warren and Republican Josh Hawley reintroduced legislation to prohibit PBM and pharmacy co-ownership.
"Our history is defined by proactively evolving to stay ahead of what's next in healthcare, and in today's environment, that means delivering more affordability, greater access and a simpler experience," said Joyner in a statement.
CVS has led the charge as the wider health insurance industry emerges from a period of financial strain. Cost controls have lifted margins at the health insurance unit just as the US government also increased payment rates for Medicare insurance plans. But CVS drugstores, which have lagged behind the wider business, posted a 2 per cent slide in revenues in the three months to the end of September.
In September 2024, CVS's struggles drew the attention of activist hedge fund Glenview Capital, which took a 1 per cent stake in the business, prompting the removal of Karen Lynch as chief executive and the addition of four directors to the board.
Cyber attack Dutch retailer Ahold Delhaize cuts forecasts after hack puts systems offline

Ahold Delhaize, one of Europe's biggest supermarket chains, has cut its financial forecasts after suffering a cyber attack last month as retailers across the continent come under siege from hackers.
The Dutch supermarket chain said yesterday that it expected the attack to reduce its net sales by between €200mn and €250mn and to lower its operating profit by between €75mn and €100mn in the fourth quarter.
Ahold Delhaize was hit by a cyber attack that affected most of its brands across Europe and the US.
Stores in the Netherlands and Belgium were particularly affected and online shopping at various Ahold Delhaize brands was disrupted due to “the malicious actions of others”, it said.
"We proactively took certain systems offline, including our brands"
websites and apps, as a precautionary measure to protect them," the group wrote.
Frans Muller, president and chief executive of Ahold Delhaize, said in a statement: "While most of the disruption was contained within two weeks, work continues to fully restore our normal operations."
He added: “Cyber threats are an increasingly harsh reality of doing business today and moments like these remind us not only of our shared vulnerabilities but also of the strength of our relationships and the importance of standing together.”
In a separate attack this week, freezers at dozens of supermarkets across Europe, including Ahold Delhaize, suddenly overheated after hackers broke into refrigeration systems for a second time in a matter of weeks, raising the alarm over the continent's food security.
The latest attack, which ruined food worth millions of euros, hit stores in Belgium, Sweden, Finland, Ireland and Estonia.
In Belgium, about 40 Delhaize shops were affected. It came weeks after hundreds of French supermarkets suffered similar attacks.
On Tuesday, France's national blood service, the EFS, said it was also affected with temperatures in three of its cold-storage rooms rising dramatically. The EFS said the problem was identified quickly and none of the contents of the rooms, which store bags of plasma, were compromised.
Nobody has claimed responsibility for the attacks. Following the French supermarket attacks, experts said the hackers might be anyone from disaffected western teenagers to a state-backed adversary with a strategic goal with some researchers suggesting links to Russia.

In a separate attack this week, freezers at dozens of supermarkets across Europe, including Ahold Delhaize, suddenly overheated after hackers broke into refrigeration systems for a second time in a matter of weeks, raising the alarm over the continent's food security.
The latest attack, which ruined food worth millions of euros, hit stores in Belgium, Sweden, Finland, Ireland and Estonia.
In Belgium, about 40 Delhaize shops were affected. It came weeks after hundreds of French supermarkets suffered similar attacks.
On Tuesday, France's national blood service, the EFS, said it was also affected with temperatures in three of its cold-storage rooms rising dramatically. The EFS said the problem was identified quickly and none of the contents of the rooms, which store bags of plasma, were compromised.
Nobody has claimed responsibility for the attacks. Following the French supermarket attacks, experts said the hackers might be anyone from disaffected western teenagers to a state-backed adversary with a strategic goal with some researchers suggesting links to Russia.

RACHEL REES AND CRISTINA CRIDDLE
LONDON
One of Meta's top executives has said that impending “population collapse” means AI-driven productivity gains are “desperately” needed to support society, as tech leaders seek to persuade a sceptical public that the powerful technology will benefit their lives.
Alex Schultz, Facebook parent company's chief data officer, told the FT's Future of AI summit yesterday: “The world as a whole isn't thinking hard enough about things like population collapse . . . We desperately need more productivity,” he said. “How are we going to care for elderly people? How are we going to put ourselves in a place where we can actually make the most of the number of people on Earth?”
The global population is expected to peak in 2064, while the working population is set to shrink more quickly due to longer lifespans and falling birth rates.
Schultz's comments come as Meta races to compete with OpenAI, Anthropic and Google, having spent billions of dollars on its AI ambitions.
Chief executive Mark Zuckerberg told the FT last month that its new model, Muse Wonder, had caught up with rivals to reach the “frontier”, while its consumer-focused Muse agent has been downloaded millions of times since its launch in September.
These developments have come amid broader concerns about the sustainability of the spending spree behind the AI boom, with Meta announcing plans to raise an additional \$95bn to fuel its spending last week.
Extolling the productivity benefits of AI, Schultz said AI was already “accelerating” software engineers’ jobs and saving “a tonne of time” for lawyers.
But he acknowledged that not all AI use had led to increased productivity, with some workers “burning tokens with no obvious value”. Within his own team, “less than half” were using the technology effectively, he added.
Productivity gains were improving with the accessibility of more recent models, Schultz said, adding that he was “pretty slow on the uptake” until OpenClaw popularised so-called vibe coding at the start of the year.
However, he pushed back against fears about the technology leading to widespread unemployment, saying that “having tools doesn’t eliminate jobs, it just changes them”.

BUSINESS INSIGHT

n the bright blue morning sky, high above the desert dunes in China's north-western Gansu, a small white dot emerged, drawing shrieks of
delight from the small group of people gathered below. Moments later, the stainless-steel rocket came into view, its landing gear splayed out as it approached the recovery site. "My heart skipped a beat," said one onlooker.
The August launch and return to land of the Zhuque-3 Y2 signified that Beijing-based LandSpace had joined the likes of Elon Musk's SpaceX and Jeff Bezos-owned Blue Origin as private companies in successfully recovering a rocket booster after an orbital launch.
LandSpace is on track to reach another milestone early next year when it is expected to list shares on Shanghai's Star Market, China's Nasdaq alternative for domestic tech champions.
The story of LandSpace and its founder Zhang Changwu highlights how the ruling Chinese Communist Party is able to leverage the private sector — and the brilliant minds of the country's scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs — to achieve national strategic aims at a speed most countries would envy.
In the early 2010s, Beijing grew ever more frustrated over slow progress by state-owned enterprises in their ability to compete with American groups in the commercial space sector. It needed the industry to develop and deploy satellites for modern data and communication services.
In 2014, Xi Jinping's administration signalled it would open the space industry to private investment, spurring the creation of hundreds of start-ups and prompting provinces across the country to roll out state support.
Zhang, a bespectacled graduate of the elite Tsinghua University who had also worked at HSBC and Banco Santander, was among those who seized the moment, founding LandSpace in June in 2015. Investors were immediately attracted by not just the broader opportunity of China's space sector but also the eager Zhang's conviction to look beyond established technologies of solid-fuelled rockets to those powered by newer fuels such as liquid oxygen methane.
Blaine Curcio, a veteran consultant and analyst covering China's space sector, said equally important was Beijing's allowing the flow of talent from the state to the pri-
---
vate sector. "That was a very important, watershed moment for commercial space: this idea that top people from SOEs are allowed to be hired by commercial companies," he said.
Now, looking back at LandSpace's journey so far, Curcio says the trajectory from founding to regular successful launches is comparable with that of SpaceX. "In 11 years, they've made a lot more progress than European firms and most American firms," he said.
A July report by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a US think-tank, found that since being opened to private investment, China's commercial space industry has grown to
600 companies across launch services and satellite communications, up from a few dozen in 2014.
At it stands, LandSpace and SpaceX are not in immediate competition, as neither is allowed in the other's home market. However, they are important proxies in the high-stakes US-China battle to dominate space technology.
Experts caution that China's state-led approach can create economic issues, including excessive investments and supply chain duplications.
But Dan Wang, a China director at Eurasia, a consultancy, said Beijing's industrial strategy in sectors such as commercial space is better understood as “state co-ordination” rather than “state direction”. The state will maintain a close watch on the groups via companies' internal party committees, board seats and shareholdings by large state-linked groups.
“It is not that the state wants to manage the company, but there are additional roles that the state imposes on them,” Wang added. It is also common for company executives to take up state advisory roles, as Zhang did in 2025, joining Beijing’s Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference.
Mark Greeven, a Shenzhen-based professor of innovation and strategy at the International Institute for Management Development, points out LandSpace “fits” the Chinese model, where Beijing tries to set the conditions for strategic industries by allowing space for “entrepreneurs to swarm around opportunities” and build out the ecosystem and supply chain for new companies to prosper.
“Entrepreneurial freedom and hyper-competition is essential for the model to work,” he says.

Litigator hired to chase equity payouts as firm prepares for wind-down
SUJEET INDAP, KAYE WIGGINS AND OLIVER BARNES — NEW YORK SUZI RING — LONDON
Former partners at Weil, Gotshal & Manges have hired legal counsel to represent them in the law firm's impending wind-down amid a rush by current and past practitioners to recover part of the value of their stakes in the business.
A group of about 10 former partners, including lawyers who left in the past five years but none who departed in the wave of exits over recent months, is working with Peter Wang, a litigator at Foley & Lardner, according to people familiar with the matter.
Wang previously represented more than 100 lawyers in the 2012 bankruptcy of Dewey LeBoeuf, a major New York-based corporate firm that succumbed to a heavy debt load.
Wang has in recent days reached out to Weil's outside counsel at Davis Polk & Wardwell.
The move is an early indication of the legal battles likely to flow from the demise of Weil, which announced last week that it would pursue “an orderly wind-down” of its operations after its management determined that not enough of its revenue-generating lawyers remained after a series of defections.
Los Angeles-based law firm Gibson Dunn is in talks to hire as many as 120 lawyers from Weil in the US and London, in one of the biggest lateral moves ever in the legal industry.
More than 20 partners are among the group planning to move, including leaders of Weil's private funds groups in the US and UK, according to people familiar with the matter.
The team includes Andrew Chizzik, Weil's head of private funds in New York, and the co-heads of Weil's London private funds group, James Bromley and James Sargent, the people said.
The lawyers span fund structuring, regulation, tax and finance. About 12 of the partners are expected to join in the US.
Legal industry publication law.com reported last week that a near 40-strong funds team was set to move to Gibson Dunn in London, which is part of the 120 in talks.
Partners will vote in the coming days to formally wind down Weil, which has
1,200 lawyers and \$2bn in annual revenue.
Law firms are typically owned by their partners – the senior practitioners who lead the businesses and share in their profits.
Partners who own equity in Weil – including some retired and departed lawyers who have yet to be repaid in full for their stakes – would only expect payouts if the remaining amounts collected from clients exceeded those owed by the firm on its office leases and to its vendors.
Total partner equity worth tens or hundreds of millions of dollars could be at risk of being wiped out in the wind-down.
Separately, several current and former lawyers told the FT they were frustrated with Weil's longtime executive partner Barry Wolf and wanted to probe how the Wall Street firm was managed in its final months. They said that a lawsuit alleging breach of fiduciary duty against the Weil management committee remained a possibility.
“Knives are out,” said one of the Weil lawyers. “There are real dollars at stake and there is a total lack of trust.”
The FT previously reported that Weil was in the process of appointing a “wind-down” committee to be composed of some remaining Weil lawyers, likely to include Wolf, as well as external restructuring experts.
The firm has hired consulting firm AlixPartners to work with its internal finance team on managing Weil's books during the shutdown effort.
Weil, Wolf and Wang did not respond to requests for comment. Gibson Dunn declined to comment.

Consultancy published report littered with inaccuracies but says human error was to blame
ELIZABETH BRATTON — LONDON
Accenture co-authored a report about artificial intelligence that was littered with false citations, incorrectly attributed research and case studies that appear not to exist, prompting accusations the consultancy published information marred by AI hallucinations.
A paper about the potential of AI in African agriculture, published by the IT consulting firm and a Spanish university, contained several factual errors and 15 citations with errors such as incorrect titles or author names, according to an investigation by AI detection business GPTZero.
Edward Tian, co-founder of GPTZero, said the errors, which were checked by the FT, were “overwhelmingly consistent with the patterns of AI hallucinations rather than the occasional inaccuracies associated with human research”.
Accenture, which was named in September as an independent evaluator to assess the safety of Anthropic's AI models, said there was “no evidence” that the errors were the result of AI hallucination but then subsequently added that it would make corrections to the publication.
Accenture said: “Our review indicates that the errors identified in the report were the result of human error. There is no evidence to support the conclusion that they were generated through AI hallucination.”
The consultancy declined to say how it reached this conclusion or provide further details of how it concluded the errors were made.
It said the corrected report would be re-released, adding: “We will always embrace the opportunity to strengthen the quality of our reports.”
The November 2025 report – titled “Leapfrogging Development: Unlocking Africa’s Potential in Global Value Chains with Artificial Intelligence” – was published by Accenture and IE University. Two of its four authors and both of its editors are staff from Accenture, which has revamped its business to make heavy use of AI and advise clients on how to adopt the technology.
The paper, published on Accenture's website, made two references to technology hosted by an organisation called
Accenture's office in New York. The consultancy made claims relating to cocoa production in Ecuador, below Angus Mordant/Bloomberg; Philippe Lissac/Godong/Universal Images Group/Getty Images
SAATN – identified as both the “Southern Africa AgriTech Network” and the “Southern African Agriculture Transformation Network”. Neither network appears to exist.
It also claimed that predictive AI had “significantly improved” the detection of swollen shoot disease among cocoa plants, reaching 99 per cent accuracy in Colombia and Ecuador. The source cited for this claim, however, was an article focused on west Africa without any mention of these South American countries, where there is minimal evidence to suggest the disease is present.

Other errors included incorrectly stating the rankings of Ghana and Uganda in a 2023 Oxford AI readiness index, providing a broken web link as citation.
Several citation-related errors were identified in the report. Tian said that “human citation errors tend to be small and isolated”, such as incorrect years, formatting or a broken link. “By contrast, LLMs generate references that sound entirely credible but do not exist. This results in fabricated paper titles, plausible-sounding but fake organisations, and invented case studies stitched to real actors,” he said.
The Accenture paper stated that “youth- and women-led digital platforms have achieved high uptake” in Colombia and Honduras “when embedded in [an] inclusive governance structure”. Neither of the citations provided for this claim appears to exist.
The 49-page report also contains web links that do not follow through to the source article cited. One citation misspelt the name of the author and listed two authors who were not named as writers on the source paper.
Accenture has heavily encouraged its staff to use AI – developing training courses and making the use of AI a crite-
'Human citation errors tend to be small and isolated. By contrast, LLMs generate references that sound entirely credible but do not exist'
rion for deciding promotions – at a time when investors are watching to see if the technology will improve revenue per employee. A round of lay-offs last year was concentrated among staff who could not be retrained to make use of the technology.
AI detection tools, including GPTZero's, have been criticised for wrongly flagging human-written content as AI-generated in some cases.
GPTZero said it had manually checked each of the errors flagged by its tool in the Accenture paper and made additional checks with open-source intelligence. It has previously identified AI hallucinations in research by PwC, KPMG and EY, with the latter two retracting reports following its findings.
IE University said: “The authors of the report approach their work and analysis with the utmost rigour. Should any errors be confirmed, they will make the necessary corrections to the report and strengthen the processes in place to help prevent similar issues from occurring in the future.” It added that the authors of the report were “reviewing the sources and data underlying the report to understand how these discrepancies may have arisen”.

Oracle has scrapped a multibillion-dollar chip leasing contract with Tencent after bowing to pressure from the Trump administration, in a sign of rising tensions for US cloud providers serving Chinese AI companies.
The Californian group led by Larry Ellison, the billionaire backer of US President Donald Trump, signed a five-year lease with the leading Chinese tech giant to provide access to as many as 100,000 advanced AI chips across a host of data centres in south-east Asia.
The contract, worth an estimated \$7bn and first reported by the FT in September, was Tencent's largest overseas leasing deal. It would have given the group access to chips unavailable for use in China due to curbs from Washington and Beijing.
US officials approached Oracle to raise concerns about the Tencent deal, according to two people familiar with the matter. Tencent also received visits from senior officials in Guangdong, where the group is based, who asked the tech giant to support domestic Chinese chips, according to one of the people.
The deal has since been cancelled, the

people added. Oracle, Tencent and the White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The incident shows the growing difficulties for leading US and Chinese companies in developing AI as their respective nations seek to become the pre-eminent technological superpower.
A shortage of domestic supply and tightening American export controls have led Chinese tech groups to seek more computing capacity overseas. Such lease deals could also offer access to Nvidia's cutting-edge processors not available in China. Chinese tech giants and frontier AI labs are tapping into these resources, especially for the training of their models, as domestic chips cannot perform such tasks yet.
While such overseas leasing deals are allowed under existing rules, US companies have faced growing pressure to cut the exposure to Chinese customers. The FT reported on Tuesday that Nvidia has told cloud computing clients they must now sell at least 51 per cent of their services to non-Chinese companies.
While Tencent is catching up with leasing deals, ByteDance and Alibaba remain the biggest clients of data centres in south-east Asia.
Oracle is a major supplier to Byte-Dance in Asia with multiple data centres in Malaysia. The company also hosted US customer data for the Chinese group's social media platform TikTok before being part of a consortium that late last year acquired the app's US operations.
Demand from Chinese AI groups in south-east Asia has intensified amid tightening export controls that prevent Nvidia's advanced chips from entering China via an intermediate location. This has led to increased prices, longer terms and higher upfront payments for these data centre lease agreements.

RAFE ROSNER-UDDIN — NEW YORK
Uber said yesterday that it planned to deploy more than 2,000 robotaxis next year as it sought to reassure investors about its autonomous bet at a time when its core business is being buffeted by driver shortages and higher fuel prices.
The San Francisco-based company told investors that revenues in its mobility business were about \$7.5bn in the three months to September 30, about \$200mn below analysts' expectations. Group revenues were about \$100mn higher than forecast at \$14.8bn.
Operating profit of \$1.4bn was sharply below expectations of \$2.2bn after the company set aside \$484mn for potential legal and tax settlements.
Chief executive Dara Khosrowshahi said higher fuel costs stemming from the Middle East war had hit growth, and that Uber expected the situation to worsen in the fourth quarter given "recent escalations during the busy travel season".
He added: “In multiple international markets elevated fuel costs, tighter local labour conditions and competition for drivers constrained our ability to fully serve consumer demand.”
Khosrowshahi said that Uber was taking steps to give incentives to drivers through improved fees and sign-up bonuses. The company is also facing intensifying competition in the ride-hailing market from autonomous platforms such as Alphabet's Waymo, with shares down 17 per cent this year.
Khosrowshahi said Uber was on track to have about 700 fully driverless vehicles on its platform this year, rising to more than 2,000 by the end of 2027.
It has pledged to spend more than \$10bn expanding its robotaxi network and aims to deploy more than 120,000 driverless vehicles over time.
The company operates limited services in nine cities globally, including
Austin, Atlanta and London, and plans to add as many as 15 this year.
Rival Waymo has about 4,000 vehicles on the road, mostly in the US. The Alphabet-owned business aims to have more than 8,000 cars on the road by the end of this year, according to people familiar with the matter.
Uber said gross bookings — a measure of customer spending across the business — rose 20 per cent year on year to \$59.8bn in the third quarter, in line with analysts' estimates.
In September Uber announced plans to cut about a tenth of its global workforce, or about 3,300 roles, to free up cash for investments including its robotaxi business.
Uber has also experienced significant changes in management in the past year. President Jill Hazelbaker is joining OpenAI next month, while global head of delivery Susan Anderson left in June. Sarfraz Maredia, head of autonomy, is scheduled to leave this month.

KANA INAGAKI — LONDON
BMW has said it expects the internal combustion engine to survive in China for at least a decade, even as western carmakers struggle to keep up with the pace of transition to electric vehicles in the world's largest car market.
Collapsing sales of petrol vehicles in China have prompted a series of downgrades from European carmakers in recent quarters including BMW, which yesterday issued its second profit warning since June.
The market share of combustion engine vehicles has fallen below 35 per cent in China amid rising fuel prices and strong EV launches from domestic carmakers.
“We think the internal combustion engine market will be alive in specific price segments,” BMW’s chief financial officer Walter Mertl said yesterday. “It will continue to do so up to the next decade. We are convinced of this.”
Despite its bullish outlook, BMW will accelerate the introduction of EV models based on its “Neue Klasse” software-controlled platform to reboot sales in China. The group will export vehicles made in China to other parts of Asia.
"We are firmly convinced that we will be very successful" in the Chinese EV market, Mertl added. BMW said it
BMW, which issued its second profit warning since June yesterday, said it would accelerate its restructuring

would accelerate its restructuring measures and phase out EV models based on older battery technology.
Operating profit fell 30 per cent to €1.6bn in the July to September quarter compared with a year earlier, slightly higher than analyst expectations of €1.5bn. Revenue fell 6 per cent to €30bn as sales in China tumbled by a quarter year on year.
“Current developments in our industry call for decisiveness and swift implementation,” said chief executive Milan Nedeljković. “We will therefore specifically intensify and accelerate structural measures.”
BMW expects a core operating margin of minus 0.5 per cent to 0.5 per cent compared with its earlier forecast of between 1 and 3 per cent. In the third quarter, its margin for the core automotive segment stood at 3.4 per cent.
BMW said it would accelerate a reduction in management functions. In late September, the carmaker outlined plans to cut more than 100 managers on top of reducing about 8,000 back-office jobs, or 5 per cent of its workforce. “There’s very high demand for the restructuring programme,” Nedeljković said. “This momentum should not get lost.”
BMW shares rose 5.5 per cent yesterday and are down 35 per cent this year.

London debt trader's fund went from start-up to Mayfair mainstay in just 4 years but is now fighting to hold on to its bets

ROBERT SMITH, EUAN HEALY, COSTAS MOURSELAS AND ORTENCA ALIAJ LONDON
After four years of remarkable returns and rampant growth, Arini Capital Management's charismatic founder Hamza Lemssouguer decided this year that his hedge fund's 6,400-square-foot Mayfair office was no longer fit for purpose.
The 36-year-old trader's penchant for concentrated and self-described “contrarian” bets on the debt of struggling companies had propelled Arini from a \$1bn hedge fund start-up to a \$22bn investment firm diversified across both public and private credit.
In need of a new home to accommodate its grand ambitions, Arini swooped on the sprawling former London office of \$1tn private capital giant Apollo Global Management in June, agreeing to lease all eight floors and the basement of the 40,000-square-foot building a stone's throw from Mayfair's Hanover Square.
But in the few short months since striking the trophy office deal, the swashbuckling trading style that fuelled Lemssouguer's rise has ensnared his firm in a brutal sell-off in the riskiest reaches of corporate debt markets.
Arini's \$7bn flagship fund is now nursing losses for the year of more than 26 per cent with some of its largest positions in the debt of companies that are teetering on the brink of restructuring or even bankruptcy.
Inundated with margin calls from banks that lent money to increase its firepower, Arini raised new capital for its main fund last month and has begun dumping large blocks of bonds in struggling companies.
A person close to Arini insisted that it was “business as usual” for the firm, which regularly trades in and out of positions and is deploying the new money for several purposes.
The firm has also told investors that it has previously rebounded from “periods of significant mark-to-market volatility”.
However, many rival traders smell blood. One hedge fund manager, who has bought large blocks of debt from Arini, estimated that the firm had sold positions with a face value of more than \$2bn in chaotic trading over the past week.
Others have placed short bets against
Rival traders smell blood
\- one estimated that Arini had sold positions with a face value of over \$2bn
Arini's biggest holdings, which are widely known due to their scale, exacerbating the pressure on its portfolio.
"Everyone is shorting his positions," said one bond fund manager at a large asset manager.
The downturn marks a brutal reckoning for Lemssouguer, who had previously defied scepticism from some credit market veterans about his young age and audacious trading style to build one of Europe's most successful new hedge funds.
Having risen to become one of Credit Suisse's most profitable traders while still in his late twenties, Lemssouguer eschewed an offer to run money for Ken
Griffin's Citadel hedge fund in 2020 and established Arini the following year — christening his firm after the tribe of parrot that the Moroccan-born trader famously breeds.
Shortly after it began trading in January 2022, Arini's so-called master fund started placing big bets on defaults across Europe remaining low by slicing and dicing baskets of derivatives that reference corporate debt.
Arini has often held the riskiest “equity tranche” of the iTraxx Crossover index, which tracks the credit default swaps (CDS) of 75 junk-rated European companies, juicing its returns but putting it at risk of serious losses from just a few defaults.
Swashbuckling style: Hamza Lemssouguer has a penchant for concentrated and self-described ‘contrarian’ bets, including on a bond issued by struggling UK retailer The Very Group, below Chris J. Ratcliffe/Bloomberg
trade in publicly traded credit markets that are supposedly liquid, the size of many of its positions – boosted through leverage from the banks that serve as its prime brokers – makes them hard to sell in times of stress.
Complicating things further, Arini has banded together with other bondholders to negotiate restructuring deals in many of its biggest positions.
Members of these groups are often restricted from trading in and out of a company's debt as they are privy to private information from these talks.
Sales can be possible either through “big boy letters”, which acknowledge that the seller may have more information than the buyer, or by simply offloading the debt to another member of the bondholder group.
These restructuring deals also often require bondholders to lend more money to gain a favourable outcome, meaning that staying the course would require Arini to put up fresh capital.
In some instances, Arini had bought the majority or even all of certain bonds, having last year bought the entirety of a £598mn bond issued by long-struggling British online retailer The Very Group.
Bank trading desks have sought out buyers for The Very Group bonds in recent weeks, although the person close to Arini said the firm was not actively looking to sell further debt of the retailer after last selling a portion of the bonds in August.
However, Arini has traded out of other large holdings in the past week according to people familiar with the trades, including positions in Blackstone-backed theme park group Merlin Entertainments and US technology companies Claritev and Sabre.
Arini has also offloaded more complex positions in the CDS market, according to people familiar with the matter.
As its problems grow, Arini is still open to raising further money for its flagship hedge fund strategy, having initially secured \$1.5bn of new commitments last month, with \$425mn deployed at the start of October.
The firm has forged close relationships with several powerful Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds with Arini chief executive Younes Belcadi having previously served on the executive committee of Qatar Investment Authority.
“Hamza definitely still has a following there,” said one rival distressed debt fund manager.
But as traders swap gossip in anonymous chat rooms about the travails of a firm many of them now dub the "London bird", Arini's rivals are on tenterhooks over how severe its losses were in October – with initial performance estimates due to be shared with investors in the coming days.
Big profits at the firm's main hedge fund, which gained 27 per cent in 2023, 21 per cent in 2024 and 10 per cent last year, enabled Arini to raise billions of dollars of new capital in recent years across other strategies such as private credit and asset-backed debt.
Since Arini last updated its investors earlier in the month, Apollo-backed telecoms firm Brightspeed – where Arini holds a roughly \$2bn position concentrated in its riskier tiers of debt – has begun planning for a potential Chapter 11 bankruptcy, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal.

Earlier this year, Lemssouguer established a family office, Jersey-based LIO Limited, to oversee his growing personal wealth while setting up a charitable foundation with his wife focused on “education, wildlife conservation and local community empowerment across South America and Africa”.

Some rival traders believe that the company's lower-ranking debt could be wiped out entirely in such a scenario, fuelling intense speculation around how severe a markdown Arini will have to take on the position.

FLORIAN MÜLLER — FRANKFURT
Heraeus systematically understated the concentration of precious metals in materials it processed for customers, an independent investigation has found, widening a crisis at one of the world's biggest platinum refiners.
In a practice described by the law firm conducting the probe as “legally highly questionable”, the German group is alleged to have lowered its test results for 450 customers worldwide over more than a decade, reducing the cash or refined metal due to them after processing.
Heraeus has set aside €170mn to cover the potential fallout from the findings, which emerged during a wider investigation into alleged misconduct at the group.
The FT reported this year that the company had set aside €460mn over allegations it had unlawfully retained metal left in its equipment during processing, and that prosecutors were investigating 16 current and former Heraeus employees on suspicion of fraud and embezzlement.
Following settlements, Heraeus still has provisions of €300mn, including the €170mn booked in its 2025 accounts for the findings of the new investigation by CMS Hasche Sigle.
CMS, which did not respond to a request for comment, uncovered the billing issues while investigating whistleblower complaints about the other irregularities at Heraeus.
In June last year it told the company's management that the lack of contractual transparency for customers was "legally highly questionable", according to documents seen by the FT.
"The external investigation has been completed and its findings were handed over to prosecutors," said Heraeus chief executive Frank Stietz.
The practice of understating precious metals content ran from 2015 until the end of last year, with deductions generally below 1 per cent, according to Stietz. They were intended as a safeguard against variations between customers' test results and Heraeus' own measurements, which determined the final value owed.
Heraeus plans to negotiate individual settlements. Potential compensation for the 450 affected customers, representing fewer than half of the division's clients during the period, ranges from a few thousand euros a year for some to millions accumulated over a decade for others, according to the company.
"The deductions were not sufficiently transparent in some of our customer contracts," Stietz said, adding that they also "varied in ways that are difficult to justify scientifically".
"We are proactively approaching our customers, and discussions have so far been constructive," he added. "We have not lost any customer relationships."
Before 2015, Heraeus employees manually reduced the precious metal content in test results based on subjective judgments recorded in extensive Excel spreadsheets, without scientific justification or automated controls, according to three people familiar with the matter.
After that practice was uncovered internally around 2015, Heraeus replaced it with a statistically based system known as “Risk Mitigation” that was considered legally defensible by external lawyers from Clifford Chance, according to the people.

The refiner is alleged to have manipulated metals tests — Michael Bauer/dpa/Alamy
Clifford Chance declined to comment.
The new system used predefined tolerance ranges for individual customers and metals. Deductions were automated for a handful of major customers but continued to be applied manually for other clients.
CMS had earlier found that Heraeus's former management had “perpetuated” the potential illicit handling of production leftovers for years while fostering a “culture of silence”.
Former chief executive Jan Rinnert left the company days before Heraeus flagged the matter to authorities last year and is among the suspects in the ongoing criminal probe, according to people familiar with the matter. Rinnert did not respond to a request for comment.
The shortcomings continued into the first months of Stietz's tenure. “We are working intensively to strengthen our compliance culture, including setting the tone from the top,” Stietz said.

VC firm prioritises Silicon Valley in setback to UK's ambition to be base for AI
TIM BRADSHAW AND IVAN LEVINGSTON
Prominent technology investor Sequoia Capital is closing its European headquarters in London in a setback to the UK's ambitions to become a significant base for the booming AI industry.
Sequoia announced the closure, which follows a similar retreat from China and India, in a social media post yesterday.
"We simply don't see the need for a local presence" in Europe, the venture capital firm said. “We believe that Europe will continue to produce outlier founders and companies, and that we can continue to provide world-class support from our home base in the Bay Area.”
The international retreat marks another period of upheaval at a firm best known for lucrative bets on Apple, Google, OpenAI and SpaceX, after the tumultuous departure of former managing partner Roelof Botha a year ago.
After opening outposts in China, India and Europe over the past two decades, Sequoia has now in effect exited all overseas markets to refocus on Silicon Valley. It opened its UK office in 2020 during the pandemic-era tech boom.
Its former Chinese and Indian divisions now operate independently as HongShan and Peak XV Partners, respectively.
Sequoia's retreat from Europe follows a similar move by its Silicon Valley neighbour Andreessen Horowitz, which closed its London office last year after less than two years. Sequoia said it would continue to invest in European start-ups from its San Francisco office.
Nevertheless, the departures are a blow to Britain's ambitions to position itself prominently in the rapidly growing AI industry, which is dominated by the US and China.
Sequoia's four London-based partners were given the option to relocate to the
US to stay with the firm. Three of the four opted not to move, including Luciana Lixandru, who co-led Sequoia's early-stage investment business globally.
They will continue working with existing portfolio groups but will not make new investments with Sequoia.
"When given the opportunity to move to San Francisco, I chose to stay here and focus on this wonderful, imperfect ecosystem," Lixandru said in a social media post.
Another Sequoia partner in Europe, Matt Miller, had already left the firm and launched his own fund last year.
Sequoia opened its office in London amid a broader push by US investment companies looking for new opportunities abroad.
However, European technology start-ups still lag far behind their US counterparts in terms of their ability to raise capital, especially from local investors.
Despite the dominance of the US and China, London-based AI start-ups such as ElevenLabs, Ineffable Intelligence and Isomorphic Labs have still benefited from an increase in venture funding.
Sequoia's investments in Europe have included Swedish buy-now, pay-later pioneer Klarna, German fintech Trade Republic, French accounting start-up Pennylane and German defence tech firm Stark.

LAITH AL-KHALAF — LONDON
Raman Bhatia is preparing to stand down from his role as chief executive of Starling Bank after just two years in the role as the UK digital bank struggles with slowing growth.
Bhatia has privately told the group's board that he no longer wants to run the fintech, according to three people familiar with the matter.
The board had stepped up succession planning in response, the people added. The exit of Bhatia, who was named chief executive in March 2024, would come at a pivotal time for Starling, which has been grappling with weakening growth and a sluggish valuation.
Bhatia took up the role after the bank's founder and former chief executive Anne Boden clashed with investors over its ailing valuation growth.
Boden, a former Allied Irish Bank executive, founded Starling in 2014 as one of a crop of digital-only challenger banks. After a decade in which Starling had struggled to deliver the kind of valuation growth achieved by rivals such as Monzo and Revolut, Boden stepped down.
Last month it emerged that Boden had sold the last of her stake at a valuation of £1.7bn. The neobank was planning for a secondary share sale at a valuation of £4bn last year, the FT previously reported.
Starling's revenues slid 6 per cent to £887mn in the year to March, while pretax profits dropped 3 per cent to £217mn as lower Bank of England base rates weighed on interest income.
Bhatia joined Starling from the energy company Ovo and had previously led the digital bank for HSBC's retail banking and wealth management business in the UK and Europe.
Starling has been hamstrung by restrictions placed on it in 2021 by the Financial Conduct Authority due to its poor financial-crime controls. These curbs prevented Starling from opening new accounts for high-risk customers. Three years later the FCA accused the bank of operating with “shockingly lax” controls and fined it £29mn.
Bhatia said at the company's full-year results in May that Starling was in the process of exiting these restrictions.

Starling Bank declined to comment.

A farmer sprays wheat with pesticides using a drone in China's Shandong province. SoftBank-backed XAG expects farmers to switch to its autonomous agricultural drone systems — CFOTO/Future Publishing/Getty Images
A SoftBank-backed agricultural drone start-up wants every farmer to “have their own robot” as it touts its pilotless crop sprayers as the answer to a dwindling workforce and rising temperatures.
XAG, the world's second-largest agricultural drone maker by revenue behind Chinese compatriot DJI, has released a series of drones with docking stations that autonomously clean, recharge, refill and plan the spraying routes of vehicles.
Justin Gong, senior vice-president of XAG, told the FT that labour shortages and an ageing workforce were the biggest issues facing Chinese farms, but many of them could not rely on time-pressed drone pilots to spray fields.
The advent of more extreme weather caused by climate change has sharpened the need for automated smart farms, he added.
“Every farmer in the future will have their own robot,” he said. “It’s going to be revolutionary because we think pilots are the biggest resistance to the drone industry right now.”
By the end of last year, China had issued 415,500 drone operator licences, up 68 per cent from the year before. While the number of pilots is growing, state media have reported that high demand has left some sectors grappling with shortages.
Pilots were incentivised to spray as quickly as possible before moving on to the next farm, said Gong. Many were also reluctant to travel to remote areas.
Automation in farming is also being driven by rapid labour force shrinkage. "When [AI companies] talk about valuation or market scale, they talk about how many people you can replace," said Gong. "We are the other side: how many people you will lose in the next five years — that is the market size."
The UN has forecast that China's working-age population, which peaked at 1bn in the 2010s, could shrink by nearly two-thirds by the end of the century. A decades-long rush of rural migrants to factories in cities has put farms at the sharp end of the demographic crisis.
Gong estimated 12mn people moved from rural to urban areas each year, which meant China would need 3mn drones in the next three years. To cover all arable land, the country would need as many as 12mn drones, he said.
Sun Xi, secretary-general of the Global Summit on Sustainable Agriculture, an industry group, said agricultural drone usage was “very mature” in China and had government support, but smaller farms with limited capital and technical knowhow would struggle to adapt.
"In the end you have to look at costs," he said, adding that farmers would only adopt technology if it was cheaper than traditional methods.
XAG sells its drones, vehicles and farm sensors to customers in nearly 70 countries including the US, Brazil and a number of African and south-east Asian nations.
Kay Wackwitz, chief executive of research group Drone Industry Insights, said although DJI had grown its share of the agricultural drone market rapidly, XAG's easy-to-use systems gave them an edge with less tech-savvy farmers.
“Lowering the entry barrier is very, very important in this sector,” he said. “That, I think, is what XAG understood masterfully.”
The company, founded in 2007 as a consumer hobby brand, is preparing to list in Hong Kong. It was valued at about \$1.5bn in a 2023 funding round, according to an estimate from Caplight. SoftBank holds a 12.9 per cent stake.
Gong said farms outside China could require 5mn to 10mn drones in the next decade to meet pressing labour crunches.
Overall, the threat of climate change had softened the attitudes of even the most traditional farmers to new technologies such as drones, he said.
“Technology plus weather plus labour shortage, it’s all become very complex . . . to the farmers and they have a lot of pressure.”

DANIEL THOMAS — LONDON
European rare earths refiner Solvay has struck a deal with an Australian company that will allow it to increase supplies for crucial magnet production outside China, calling it an “important step” in diversifying global supply chains.
The Belgian chemicals group said yesterday it had signed a long-term agreement with Viridis Mining and Minerals, which will supply its rare earths operations in La Rochelle, France, from an upcoming Brazilian mine. Shipments to Solvay are expected to start in 2028.
Competition for non-Chinese rare earths supply could rise further as Beijing and Washington negotiate a further extension of a trade truce beyond January. The Pentagon has said it will stop buying magnets and other critical parts sourced from China in January.
Solvay's plant at La Rochelle is one of the largest rare earth separation and purification facilities outside China. Its products go into the permanent magnets needed for electric vehicles, renewable energy, advanced electronics and defence and medical applications.
Philippe Kehren, chief executive of Solvay, said that “customers and policymakers, not only in Europe, also in the US, in Japan” are pushing to find new sources of rare earths crucial for electrification and defence uses.
“This is clearly an important step towards this diversification,” he said. China controls mining and refining globally because of its mineral resources and investment in refining and magnet production.
The deal includes “certain price floors”, Solvay said, which would support Viridis if rare earths prices fell. The US government put in place price floors for Californian company MP Materials and Australian producer Lynas Corp, although this is not common in supply agreements.
Kehren said the Viridis deal would help the long-term future of its site in La Rochelle, which has been in production for more than 75 years but only last year added a production line that will contribute to European rare earths magnet manufacturing.
It also expanded heavy rare earths processing this year with a further investment of up to €20mn. The feedstock to come from Viridis includes neodymium and praseodymium, so-called light rare earths, and heavy rare earths dysprosium and terbium.
Rafael Moreno, chief executive of Viridis, said the company had been “in deep discussions with the Koreans, the Japanese, Europe, the US” about rare earths from its Colossus mine in Brazil.
“We’ve had a lot of different government groups come through our facility in Brazil,” he said. “There’s not that many good rare earth mining projects out there. There’s only really three non-Chinese [producing mines] at the moment.”
Moreno said the deal with Solvay would also help to secure financing for the development of Viridis. He said the company was in talks with European banks about a funding package that should be finalised this year.
"The European Union has also been quite instrumental in looking to support us," he said. "And we're lucky that they have also cascaded that support to a lot of the European banks."

VERITY RATCLIFFE — LONDON
Qatar's state-owned energy company is on track to become the world's biggest buyer of US liquefied natural gas by early next decade as war in the Middle East curtails the Gulf nation's exports and pushes it to hunt for new sources of supply.
QatarEnergy signed two agreements late last month that increase the amount of US LNG it will have available to sell to its international customers by 7mn tonnes a year.
Combined with its share of production from the Golden Pass project in Texas, in which it holds a 70 per cent stake, QatarEnergy is on track to control 23.7mn tonnes per year from the US by 2033, making it the biggest US LNG buyer according to research firm Wood Mackenzie.
None of the LNG will end up in Qatar, where the cost of producing gas remains among the cheapest in the world. Instead, it will be resold and shipped to countries that buy liquefied gas from abroad to produce electricity and fuel industry, avoiding the Strait of Hormuz chokepoint.
The shift highlights the extent to which exports from the Gulf nation, once the world's biggest supplier of LNG, have been affected by the US-Israeli war with Iran.
"The expansion of their global portfolio is part of an effort to address the perception that they were overly dependent on their system in Qatar, by building a sizeable supply portfolio outside of the Middle East," said Jason Feer, global head of business intelligence at energy and shipping broker Poten & Partners.
This will help the group rebuild its reputation as a reliable supplier that before the war had never missed a shipment, he said, adding the company was likely to do two or three more deals in the US and possibly others elsewhere. Qatari LNG exports have fallen to less than a third of their usual level this year as Iranian attacks on shipping have sharply reduced the number of carriers passing through the strait – Qatar's only route to customers outside the Gulf.
Shipments of LNG from the Middle East have been more affected than oil as there are no pipelines connecting export plants to ones outside the Gulf. It is also harder to transfer LNG than oil between ships, limiting the amount of liquefied gas that can be shuttled through the strait.
QatarEnergy stopped LNG production and declared force majeure to its affected buyers days after the outbreak

of war at the end of February. Its main buyers – mostly in Asia – were left hunting around for alternative supplies.
The latest supply deals “strengthen our ability to serve customers across the globe”, said QatarEnergy chief executive Saad al-Kaabi at a signing ceremony last week.
The newly signed contracts will give QatarEnergy access to US LNG from 2030 and 2031 and will therefore do little to help its customers facing current supply disruptions in the Middle East. However, it could provide a buffer against potential disruption to Qatari exports in the future.

There was a perception ‘they were overly dependent on their system in Qatar’
"The ability to market a geographically diverse supply portfolio alongside its own production will provide reassurance to QatarEnergy's customer base," said Wood Mackenzie.
Qatar was overtaken as the world's biggest LNG supplier in 2023 by the US, which has made massive investments in export capacity. The Gulf nation has since faced the challenge of maintaining its influence in a market that it once dominated.

One way it has sought to do so is by expanding its trading business. In 2020 QatarEnergy launched a trading desk, and last year it traded more than 20mn tonnes, according to Wood Mackenzie.
Buying LNG from the nation that usurped it also helps Qatar achieve its second main objective, which is to build a global gas business, said Feer.

HONG KONG
China has stepped up its defence of its stock market as Beijing tries to bolster flagging investor sentiment towards the technology sector with funds associated with its so-called “national team” of state-backed banks experiencing large inflows.
Net inflows into nine exchange traded funds commonly used by Beijing to support the market hit \$11.5bn on Tuesday, the second-highest daily amount on record, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
An unusually large proportion of this latest round of state-backed buying was of ETFs tracking China's two main tech indices, Shanghai's Star 50 index and Shenzhen's ChiNext.
The two tech indices jumped 9.9 per cent and 6.4 per cent, respectively, yesterday while the broad benchmark CSI 300 gained 2.3 per cent.
On Tuesday, inflows into ChinaAMC's Star 50 ETF hit \$1.7bn, the second highest on record after July's support measures. Those for E Fund's ChiNext ETF hit \$1.4bn, its third-largest on record.
“Clearly there is a regime shift from the previous state-backed ETF buying,” said Song Zhe, a senior investment specialist at BNP Paribas Asset Management. “In the past, the majority of the inflow would be in the CSI 300.”
---
China's stock market, and in particular its tech-related sub-indices, has suffered heavy selling pressure since July.
The CSI 300 is down more than 11 per cent this year and the Star 50 – which at its peak was up more than 60 per cent for the year – is also in the red.
Wall Street's S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 benchmarks are both up double digits.
Heavy selling by China's national team at the start of the year weighed on the index and mystified investors convinced that Beijing was keen to promote a steadily rising stock market.
However, the national team pumped money into the Star 50 index in July, buying close to \$9bn of equities, in an attempt to boost market sentiment ahead of CXMT's blockbuster Shanghai initial public offering – after a global rout in memory stocks spread to China.
"The national team thinks ChiNext and Star Board are crucial and represent the future of China," Song said.
The price action yesterday spilled over into some of the Chinese AI labs listed in Hong Kong, with Z.AI and MiniMax jumping 9.6 per cent and 7.5 per cent, respectively.
The FT reported on Tuesday that new listings and share offerings had been suspended in mainland markets as part of the government's efforts to support market valuations.

MORAL MONEY
Simon Mundy

he creation of the Cali Fund in November 2024 was hailed by the UN as a “historic decision of global importance”, which could
raise billions of dollars from big corporations to protect biodiversity.
So far, it's received almost nothing. Is the idea fatally flawed or might it yet fly?
Two years ago in the Colombian city of Cali, global governments agreed on a plan to raise big sums of money from large companies to finance environmental protection.
Contributions to the new Cali Fund would come from businesses in sectors, such as pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, that make use of “digital sequence information” – genetic data uploaded by researchers on to free public databases.
The idea was that companies ought to make a fair contribution to protect the natural world from which they'd derived financial gain.
The agreement, sealed at the UN's biennial biodiversity summit in November 2024, stated that large companies in relevant sectors "should" stump up 0.1 per cent of their annual revenue or
1 per cent of their profits. If they all did so, according to a subsequent UN estimate, the fund would receive \$3.65bn per year.
The fund was duly set up and declared open for contributions within a few months. To date, it has received just five donations from a handful of smaller businesses — amounting to a grand total of \$10,588.
The Cali Fund is “on life support”, said Siva Thambisetty, an associate professor of law at the London School of Economics who has written extensively on this area. “There is much more at stake here than just this fund. This is really about whether we can make good on global commitments.”
So far, not a single big global company has paid into the fund. Campaign groups have accused them of “biopiracy”, exploiting genetic resources harvested mainly from nature-rich developing nations while refusing to share the spoils.
Yet, multinationals have an incentive to back this initiative, insisted Till Voss, who has been leading policy work around it for German pharmaceutical and biotech group Bayer.
Companies like his are confronted with an emerging patchwork of national rules around the use of genetic data, he said, presenting a legal minefield that was creating an increasingly heavy compliance burden – particularly because it was often not clear which country can lay claim to a particular piece of genetic data.
If a company could be exempted from such claims by contributing to the Cali Fund, Voss added, that would be an attractive option.
Countries have not yet agreed, however, that Cali Fund contributions should forestall demands for payment under national laws.
Further legal risk, Voss said, comes with a continuing lack of clarity on exactly how the funds will be used. "As publicly listed companies, we need to know where the money will end up."
This year's UN biodiversity summit in Armenia's capital of Yerevan, which ended in the small hours of Saturday morning after a marathon final day, made only limited progress in addressing these and other outstanding questions around the Cali Fund, which were mostly shunted to the next summit to be held in 2028.

Thambisetty argued that corporate lobbying was part of the reason for this with officials spending too much time addressing industry concerns rather than focusing on the core work of getting the fund off the ground.
The Cali Fund's embarrassingly weak start makes plain that simply putting

moral pressure on corporations won't deliver the finance needed to save the planet.
A key question now, said Juliette Landry, senior research fellow at think-tank IDDRI, is whether governments will take policy actions to force or incentivise companies to pay into the Cali Fund.
A major obstacle to this, she noted, was concerns about losing out to the US, the only UN member state that's not a party to the UN biodiversity convention.
In the EU, for example – already in a panic about its economic competitiveness – imposing a new green financial levy on a swath of the bloc's business sector could prove politically explosive.
Thambisetty pointed out that governments have other options beyond imposing mandatory contributions, such as offering tax benefits to companies that pay into the fund.
But behind all this lurks a more basic question — whether governments are serious about this sort of finance at all.
The Armenian summit gave some discouraging indications with the final text noting that countries were badly off-track to meet the 2030 nature protection goals that they had previously set.
These included a target of mobilising an annual \$200bn to “halt and reverse nature loss” – the latest figure is well under half that, according to the OECD.
Developed nation governments have failed to keep a promise to raise at least \$20bn a year in international biodiversity finance by 2025 and many are cutting this type of assistance still further as part of wider cuts to foreign aid budgets.
The Cali Fund, even under an unlikely best-case scenario, would meet only a tiny fraction of this enormous shortfall.
“Many people coming to negotiate in Yerevan, coming from environmental ministries and authorities – they’re seeing that their budget is being cut and at the same time they have to do more,” said Landry. “This is really an impossible equation.”

\- Oil price hits two-month low on hopes US will look to end conflict with Iran
Oil fell sharply yesterday to its lowest level in two months as the Democrats' landslide victory in the US midterms ratcheted up the pressure on President Donald Trump to end his war in Iran.
Brent crude, the international benchmark, slid 8.7 per cent to \$94.60 per barrel after US vice-president JD Vance blamed the conflict for the Republicans' wipeout in Tuesday's midterms vote.
The price has fallen about 17 per cent since the end of last week on reports of progress towards a peace agreement between Washington and Tehran.
West Texas Intermediate, the US benchmark, retreated 8 per cent to about \$88.40 per barrel, leaving it down more than 15 per cent this week.
"[The] real reason we lost is obvious to almost everyone," Vance posted on social media, adding that pollsters had found the top response from Republican voters on why they voted Democrat was a demand to "end the war".
Traders and analysts said the oil price was being driven by a rush of optimism over an end to the conflict, which has thrown the global oil market into turmoil and curtailed crude exports from the Gulf.
"The market is saying that Congress and members of his own administration are likely to start acting as a constraint on President Trump's war in Iran," said Seb Barker, chief market strategist at hedge fund firm Marshall Wace. Donald Trump Jr, the president's son, posted his support for Vance's message on X.
The slump in oil prices triggered a rally in government bond markets, which have been hit hard by energy-driven inflation in recent months.
Ten-year UK gilt yields dropped 0.13 percentage points, the biggest daily drop since May, to 5.16 per cent. Yields on French debt of the same maturity fell 0.16 points to 4.78 per cent. Yields fall as prices rise.
Claudio Galimberti, chief economist at Rystad Energy, a research group, said the
Markets update election results would make pursuing the war more costly for Trump. "A Democratic sweep changes the political cost of continuing the Iran war. The White House keeps its discretionary powers over strikes, blockades and sanctions licences. What changes, however, is the price of using them," he said.
Joel Hancock, a senior commodities analyst at Natixis Bank, said that, in the absence of a peace deal, Brent was likely to move back above \$100 per barrel due the continued difficulty of shipping crude out of the Gulf.

onald Reagan's re-election campaign motto of 1984, "Morning in America", rings true today in one critical sense. Back then, it painted a picture of hope and renewal. In the aftermath of Tuesday's stunning midterm election results, a so-called Blue Wave offers a sense of relief bordering on hope for the majority of Americans worried about a future led by Donald Trump and his cult-like Maga loyalists.
The cathartic repudiation of Trump for them need not, however, translate into sustained gratification in the economy or markets. To the contrary, many of the distortions and imbalances that America's politicians have condoned, if not enabled, over the past 10 years could finally be unmasked.
In part, that's because the US business cycle is ageing. Other than the brief Covid shock of 2020, the economy has not experienced a recession since the financial crisis of 2007-09. Lengthy upturns tempt politicians and policymakers, as well as businesses and consumers, to believe expansions can go on indefinitely. Yet since the end of the second world war, the US has had 12 recessions, one roughly every seven years.
Politicians and investors often ignore the risks of betting against the business cycle clock. Economists are also susceptible to such denial. Even Federal Reserve chair Alan Greenspan spoke of a “new economy” in the late 1990s during the dotcom bubble.
Tales of new eras are seductive. And that's what points to more of a twilight than a morning following the midterms. At work are the excesses of today's brave new era of AI. The US is making a massive bet on that. A tabulation of data centre project announcements points to a cumulative investment surge of about \$10tn over the seven years ending in 2032, according to Brookings research. That works out to 3.6 per cent of GDP over that period, more than three times the 1.1 per cent median average of five earlier technological breakthroughs – from the canals and railroads of the 19th century to electrification, highways and telecoms development in the 20th.
The scale of the AI build-out is already having a significant impact on supporting otherwise sluggish US economic growth – support that midterm results may draw into question. But it is also having profound implications for

corporate finance. This year, the hyper-scalers are going from positive to negative cash flow positions. And with interest rates on the rise, a financial squeeze is more likely than not.
Alphabet could be the canary in this coal mine. Its latest earnings report underscored a sharp reduction in growth of its core search business, apparently cannibalised by the very breakthrough that is being so widely celebrated – AI-enabled queries. With Alphabet's net debt issuance in excess of \$75bn in the first nine months of 2026 versus a little more than \$11bn over the comparable period of 2025, there can be no mistaking an ominous turn in the AI leverage cycle.
As asset prices surge, initial bouts of investor suspicion eventually are overtaken by the speculative fear of missing out. Every bubble has its final Fomo phase. While a long frothy US equity market has been choppy for the past five months, it remains about 2 per cent below its all-time high. The so-called Magnificent-7 stocks still account for about a third of the market capitalisation of the S&P 500 index. The broad market's vulnerability to extreme concentration risk is worrisome, for sure.

Political uncertainty is likely to intensify in the weeks and months ahead as Trump continues to pursue extreme policies through executive actions while Democrats attempt to unwind some of his signature efforts such as tariffs, tax cuts for the wealthy, reductions in food stamp and Medicaid benefits, and a hands-off approach to AI regulation. When the political dust settles and Congressional actions are stymied by likely presidential vetoes, the music will stop just as it has before. And that may spell twilight for overbought markets.
You don't have to be a Luddite to worry about an AI bubble. All bubbles eventually burst and this one is unlikely to be any different. It's not the AI revolution that is at risk. The problem lies in its distortions of the real economy and asset prices. The astonishing US midterm results will not foreclose the turn of the business and financial cycles.
However painful the bursting of the AI bubble may turn out, that may be a price well worth paying though for a new morning of American values and global leadership.

HARRY DEMPSEY — TOKYO
Four of Japan's biggest commodity traders reported record profits yesterday on the back of energy market turmoil triggered by the Iran war and surging copper prices, as their chief executives remained on edge about the Middle East.
Katsuya Nakanishi of Mitsubishi Corporation warned of the potential for the conflict to drag on and push oil prices higher because of uncertainty about Donald Trump's strategy after the Democrats regained control of Congress in the midterm elections.
“Developments in foreign policy and geopolitics could have an impact, potentially prolonging the situation in the Middle East. And if resource prices rise as a result, there’s also a possibility that this could fuel further inflation,” he said.
Trump told the FT yesterday he had no immediate plans to attack Iran. The president played down speculation that he was preparing to escalate the conflict in response to pressure from Israel after the election. Oil traders and analysts fear, however, that Trump's policymaking could become even more unpredictable after the Republican rout.
"The clean sweep raises more questions than answers, the most fundamental of which is whether Donald Trump will become a lame duck for the next two years or an angry duck," said Tamas

Varga, analyst at PVM Oil Associates. Concern about US policy uncertainty was echoed by Mitsui & Co chief executive Kenichi Hori, who said that it was preparing for a world in which geopolitical risks “continue to be unpredictable”.
Mitsui said the Middle East conflict would boost annual profits by ¥40bn (\$253mn) after a record first half as its global network of oil, gas and chemicals assets helped capture higher commodity prices and meet stronger demand.
Mitsui added there would be “further upside expected” in the following year for its liquefied natural gas business, with higher volumes of fuel expected to be traded.
Mitsui, Marubeni and Itochu all said they achieved record first-half profits, while Mitsubishi Corporation said it was on track to achieve a record high for annual profitability.
The bumper profits at Japan's biggest trading houses highlight the windfall for traders from oil prices that have consistently exceeded \$100 a barrel in the past two months. Mitsubishi Corporation launched a ¥1tn share buyback after raising its full-year net income forecast by 9 per cent to ¥1.2tn.
The trading houses were also boosted by copper prices, which have surged on expectation that the Trump administration could place tariffs on the metal used extensively in electrical infrastructure and appliances. See Lex

All data is as of close of the previous business day. Company classifications are based on the ICB system used by FTSE. FSTE 100 constituents are shown in bold. Closing prices are shown in pence unless otherwise indicated. Highs & lows are based on intra-day trading over a rolling 52 week period. Price/earnings ratios (P/E) are based on latest annual reports and accounts and are updated with interim figures. P/E is calculated using the company's diluted earnings from continuing operations. Yields are based on closing price and on dividends paid in the last financial year and updated with interim figures. Yields are shown in net terms; dividends on UK companies are net of 10% tax, non-UK companies are gross of tax. Highs & lows, yields and PER are adjusted to reflect capital changes where appropriate. Trading volumes are end of day aggregated totals, rounded to the nearest 1,000 shares. Net asset value per share (NAV) and split analytics are provided only as a guide. Discounts and premiums are calculated using the latest cum fair net asset value estimate and closing price. Discounts, premiums, gross redemption yield (GRY) and hurdle rate (HR) to share price (SP) and HR to wipe out (WO) are displayed as a percentage, NAV in pence.

Stevie Wonder O2 Arena, London ★★★★★

Brand America has taken a battering in recent years, but one of its symbols of civic decency and individual brilliance rises above the tarnishment. Stevie Wonder is touring his masterpiece, Songs in the Key of Life. He released the immense double album in 1976 following an earlier period of disillusionment with the US, during which he contemplated quitting his homeland for Ghana.
The 50th anniversary tour arrived in London on the day of the midterm elections. Wonder is a stalwart supporter of the Democrats, but the electoral struggle taking place thousands of miles away went unmentioned. Instead the gig was imbued, in a gently proselytising way, by the singer-songwriter's philosophy of life. To a hard-nosed realist, its principal message of "love one another" might seem schmalzty and sappy — but not when anchored to the hefty authority of his magnum opus, nor the extraordinary resourcefulness of Wonder himself, blind for almost all his 76 years.
His first of two shows at the O2 Arena began in darkness. Wonder's voice rang out, encouraging us to close our eyes and see the world his way, through the workings of imagination, sympathy and, of course, hearing.
Then the lights went up to reveal him facing the audience at an electric keyboard, singing Songs in the Key of Life's opening track, "Love's in Need of Love Today". A row of backing singers added gospel balm while he grew increasingly impassioned in his role of the "friendly announcer" on a radio station, passing on the "serious news" of a cataclysmic conflict between love and hate.
He was in good voice, holding notes as if negotiating a point in the most soulfully mellifluous fashion. The album's running order continued with “Have a Talk with God”, a warmly enveloping funk classic in which he sang that "every problem has an answer", like the seamlessly interlocking parts of the song itself.
Then came a bravura stylistic swerve to the orchestral setting of “Village Ghetto Land”, played by a string section with a conductor. This was Wonder’s version of concert-hall art music, ennobling the dismal scenes of African-American impoverishment and political indifference about which he sang.
More than 100 minutes long, Songs in the Key of Life stands as the high point of musical auteurship. No fewer than 130 performers appeared on it. Only in his mid-twenties, Wonder was at the peak of his powers as songwriter, arranger, producer and performer. Having threatened to leave his label Motown — his potential move to Africa was motivated by frustration with the music industry as well as despair at US politics — he was awarded a record-breaking deal worth \$37mn. The album's ambitiousness met with equally vast commercial success.
Among the big band of musicians spread across the stage were two with whom he made the original recordings. Bassist Nathan Watts laid down fast jazz-rock rhythms in “Contusion”, accompanied by a dense weave of beats from a drummer and two percussionists. Greg Phillinganes, the show’s music director, sat behind Wonder at his own keyboard.
The three-hour show wasn't without fault. The tempo drifted during a mean-dering period of band introductions before an interval, while an increasingly hurried feel overtook the second half as Wonder became conscious of the encroaching 11pm curfew. But the message of his great album, interspersed with other songs from his back catalogue, hasn't lost its impact.
Wonder was helped around the stage by his children and band members, arm linked in theirs, an example of dependency. The idea of love's importance isn't abstract to him. But this communitarian ethos goes hand in hand with supreme individual giftedness. As well as playing electric keyboards and a grand piano, he blew beautifully melodic harmonica solos and played a stringed instrument called the harpejji. His command was captivating. Wonder is more than just the best of America – he represents the best of what can be achieved in music itself.

Escaping Idi Amin
BBC iPlayer
★★★★★
Rebecca Nicholson
In August 1972, the dictator Idi Amin announced the mass deportation of Uganda's Asian population, giving 80,000 people a deadline of 90 days to sell their businesses and leave. They were largely people of Indian descent who had been brought to the country in the first half of the 20th century by the British.
The informative, well-crafted two-part documentary Escaping Idi Amin tells the story of what happened that summer through the astonishing and courageous accounts of people who fled their homes in terror. It pieces together personal anecdotes and uses archival footage to convey the febrile anti-immigration political atmosphere of the era, and serves as a vital warning against strongmen who promise to fix struggling economies by scapegoating minority populations.
There are interviewees with four Ugandan Asians who were forced out by Amin and his Special Branch. It introduces them by their first names, noting their age when Amin became president following a 1971 military coup. Bharti was 10, Paresh was nine, Harminder was 11 and Maz was 23.
The younger ones remember an "idyllic" childhood in which Africans and Asians played football together in the streets. Maz had a photography studio and for a time sold portraits of Amin. All recall a vague sense of excitement when he seized power, wondering if his rise might be good for the country.
The economic situation in Uganda grew out of the messy aftermath of colonial rule, as Jonathan Dimbleby, who reported on the ground at the time, makes clear. After Uganda declared independence from Britain in 1962, it retained a three-tier class system: the British, the Asians and the African majority of about 10mn people. Almost all businesses were owned and run by Asians, and Amin was “ready and willing to exploit that resentment”, as Dimbleby explains. It is striking how much the dictator’s rhetoric sounds like that of the far right in Britain and the US today.
The documentary also offers an unflattering portrait of Britain in the 1970s: racist, hostile to immigrants, reluctant to accept any moral responsibility for the Ugandan Asians who held British passports and who ended up in Uganda as a result of colonial rule.
We see how, as UK politicians and diplomats debated and floundered, the 90 days ticked away, with Ugandan radio presenters announcing a daily countdown. The sense of disbelief curdled into fear and panic as the Special Branch embarked on a deadly campaign against Asian families, including children.
If this period is not as well known as it should be, then such a powerful and comprehensive film offers an urgent corrective.

onald Trump had asked voters to pretend he was on the ballot in Tuesday's US elections. He may regret saying that after the opposition Democrats emerged with control of both legislative houses. But the president wasn't the only topic on which voters indirectly made their views plain.
In one sense, the midterms were a vote on the AI boom or at least the building frenzy that it has inspired.
The top five states for data centre building are all now governed by Democrats with a hawkish bent when it comes to new construction of server-filled sheds.

That political arrangement could affect 45 per cent of planned data centre expansion, Goldman Sachs reckons. Curbs on new building, already in place in New York state, are likely to proliferate. Of 47 local votes on data centres counted by Redbud Consulting, at least 38 came out in favour of restrictions.
So imagine, for a second, that the powers that be press pause on new data centre construction. Who wins and loses? Clearly, it's good for those who have lots of capacity already.
Anthropic is on the hook for nearly \$900bn of cumulative “compute” spending, it revealed in an IPO filing last week.
That seems like a risk but, if the market rate of server space soars, whatever compute Anthropic has managed to secure will soon look more like an appreciating asset.
Sand in the AI gears – even assuming that is all it is – is less welcome for companies whose equity value depends on the continued and rapid build-out of high-tech infrastructure.
That includes so-called neoclouds like CoreWeave and more speculative builders like SB Energy and Nscale, both of which hope to go public in the US. The latter has already faced delays to data centres in the UK and Norway.
Moratoria are unlikely to last too

long. True, AI itself is becoming a polarising issue – a recent survey by HundredX shows an inclination to keep using the technology diverging sharply between left- and right-leaning respondents. But it ought to bring real economic benefits too.
Moreover, stopping construction in its tracks could send a chill through the broader economy. The construction of data centres has been booming
compared with other kinds of building activity.
For investors in AI companies, there is a silver lining to what might amount to helpful breathing room.
Planned spending on AI infrastructure has reached fantastical levels; financing it and securing a return on that investment is now the biggest risk to the US stock market since tech makes up 40 per cent of the S&P 500. Delays may frustrate but they also make it less likely that trillions of dollars are invested in equipment at risk of becoming obsolete or depreciating faster than its financiers expected.
On top of that, in financial terms, money spent tomorrow is less expensive than money spent today.
Consider some simple maths – \$1tn spent next year is like spending \$870bn today, using a 15 per cent discount rate. Push that out three more years and it falls to \$570bn.
Hotheaded tech chiefs will see delays as an affront. Investors could view them as an unexpected midterms dividend.

The copper frenzy shows no signs of abating, driven by growing demand from AI infrastructure and structurally limited mine supply. The World Bank now reckons the price of red metal next year will be \$13,000 per tonne, 18 per cent higher than it forecast in April. But not all parts of the supply chain benefit equally from the boom.
Think, for instance, of the divergent fortunes of China's miners and smelters. Given the country's position at the centre of the global copper market – it is the largest consumer in the world – it has plenty of both. Its share of copper production has roughly doubled between 2016 and 2024, according to S&P Global, as its mining groups have branched out overseas. And it dominates global refining and smelting, with over half of global capacity.
The current market environment favours miners, which are seeing selling prices rise much faster than unit costs. In the first quarter of last year, China's largest miner, Zijin Mining, sold copper concentrate at an average of over Rmb60,000 per tonne against a unit cost of sales of some Rmb21,000, implying a gross margin of 65 per cent. A year later, that rose to 71 per cent. The lower a miner's position on the global cost curve – and S&P Global expects Zijin to remain in the first quartile of the global curve for copper and gold – the higher the margin it can make.
On the flipside, the economics of smelting are moving in the opposite direction. Because smelters buy copper concentrate, they have high input costs. And their profitability depends on how much they can charge in processing fees. The answer, here, is not very much at all as new capacity has outstripped mining output. The annual benchmark treatment charge has fallen to zero this year, while spot charges have turned negative, according to the International Energy Agency.
For Chinese miners, at least, the copper boom is delivering a windfall: in the first half of this year, Zijin's operating cash flow nearly doubled. That gives it the firepower to keep


investing in its own projects and to acquire new mines.
Yet its shares trade just below 8 times forward earnings, a discount to global peers including Glencore and Southern Copper despite its production scale and reserves. That suggests they are valuing it more as a China-focused producer than an international mining group. The real opportunity, now, may lie not in betting on higher copper prices but in owning the companies best positioned to capture the value created by the boom.

It looks like Californians on Tuesday rejected the “billionaire tax”, which would have hit tech entrepreneurs such as Nvidia’s Jensen Huang and Meta Platforms’ Mark Zuckerberg.
The UK, therefore, can congratulate itself on being already in line with the zeitgeist. Chancellor John Healey last week laid out a scheme to reduce capital gains tax to 10 per cent for company founders and large, early shareholders on up to £10mn of profit.
Encouraging entrepreneurship is a sensible objective – especially in the UK, which has a competitive advantage in the European landscape.
Its venture capital market, relative to overall GDP, ranks only behind the US, Israel and Sweden, according to Canada's development bank.
Graduates include DeepMind, now part of Google's empire, financial services group Revolut and autonomous driving company Wayv
autonomous driving company wayve.
The tax break, or “founders’ relief”, has been well received by the start-up community – previous versions had been watered down to reduce shielded amounts and raise the tax take.
Trouble is, rewarding founders after the fact may not be the best way to encourage them. Who starts their own company spurred on by a tax break?
A Treasury report in 2018 found 8 per cent of those who claimed the then entrepreneurs' relief had been influenced by it at the time of their investment. It seems that thoughts on how to capitalise on the value created develop along with the enterprise, not at the point of its inception.
Moreover, it isn't enough for UK entrepreneurs to take the plunge. To deliver benefits to society, they also need to find a way to scale up their creations. On this front, the country is half as successful as the US.
While four in any clutch of 100 US Anthropic wannabes make it to \$1bn unicorn status, only two British ones do, according to a UK report earlier this year. But if the UK's ambition is to build the next Anthropic, Healey's founder tax break is too small to be anything more than a rounding error.
Yet for all its faults, founders' relief may yet deliver some utility. Several studies have shown that uncertainty over the longevity of incentives affects investment decisions more than the absolute tax to be paid. The prospect of a little more money, in case of success, may not sway those with a visionary bent but some certainty about how they'll be treated has to help.
