@elonmusk Tax , particularly tax on housing is violation of constitution that private ownership must be protected.

Indeed it will

有多少人能念对这些词语？要是大多数人都念错，那就应该把错的当对的去修改词典！ 说个真实案例：过去，我老家很多人把“雪茄”读成“雪qie”，因为“茄”字最常见就是出现在“qie子”（🍆）里！这种容易混淆的多音字你当初就不该选“茄”字，直接用“加”字不好吗？反正也是外来语音译，写起来也简单。 官方和那些所谓的专家就是故意愚弄刁难草民。

The question is why China challenge US? Historically US has been good to China. Even in Qing dynasty. Since 1980s US has helped China with investments, technology and business know how. Without US, China is impossible to get where it is now. People fight for the argument which system is better democracy vs authoritarian. There’s no one system better than the other. But what system can stop stupid idiot running the country. The idiot can run a country for a while but NOT forever! I don’t hate authoritarian systems or love democratic systems. I hate stupid idiot.

Well I didn’t see this coming.. For those who are blind to these ongoing global affairs.. it’s all about the US Dollar vs Chinese Yuan. Who controls the money, controls the world. But USA could have just pulled out a card I did not see coming. A deal with Indonesia. Block the straight of Malacca (Indonesia) where China relies extremely heavily on oil (70+ percent) from the Middle East. Control which ships go through here, China’s economy will slowly come to a standstill. This is where China could fold, OR things could escalate. Nevertheless, still heavily short on global indexes. Europe fight Russia (probably physically) USA fight China (not necessarily physically) But then you wonder what would happen to the EURO / GBP. If US dollar remains the primary global choice in trade after this mess ends, (probably at least a few years). I could see the UK abandoning the the GBP and turning to US dollar and effectively being under US control. Europe will be split. Eastern Europe will want peace and no doubt sign with Russia. Western Europe will fail, UK having the strongest lifeline because It is its own Island, closest to American culture, and historically been great allies.

@EdgeCGroup @Barchart Tim Cook wants to make money not products that amaze people. Nothing wrong with that. Everything is incorrect when Apple has billions and billions of cash and Mr. Cook still wants more. We will see what the next guy wants.

Tim Cook made Apple rich. He inherited a masterpiece, optimized it, and turned Apple into a $4T machine. Now comes the harder part. Can new Apple CEO John Ternus bring back imagination, innovation, and the next growth story? My latest on Apple. $AAPL Chart @Barchart forbes.com/sites/jimosman…

Steve Jobs built Apple’s products. Tim Cook built Apple’s ecosystem. But innovation is minimal with huge capital under Cook’s leadership. It feels like Warren Buffett was the CEO. Apple is a tech company. We don’t know what would happen if Steve Jobs or Elon Musk had such big capital. It’s not a criticism. It’s an assumption worth making.

So @tim_cook did cook. The business growth is undeniable. We can debate a lack of innovation and AI but when it doesn’t impact business or customer sentiment, does it matter? Nothing has come along yet that has meaningfully impacted it. I’m sure Apple has 10 different concepts it testing. Eventually, the lack of meaningful integrated AI would catch up with it, but users ability to learn and use is always limited. And users can always access best in breed AI via an app. $AAPL

Intel has made great strides. I was one of the only analysts that gave them a shot when the company had been written off for dead by most. They’re definitively getting advanced packaging from big XPU players. I called this a long time ago. Lower risk, less time, very high need, easy to explain to TSMC and can tell USG they’re supporting Intel. Next stop? Wafer agreements. This would definitively be a game changer for the company. And I do think it will happen unless the Intel process execution improvement train comes off the tracks. I’m guessing execution-based LOIs are already in place and customers are spending real dollars. If I had to guess, it would be Apple and NVIDIA. They both have the most resources and the highest need. Don’t assume it’s their leading edge products, either, that’s too risky to them. There’s a sharp learning curve using other wafer foundries and it’s steep. $INTC $AAPL $NVDA

@Yaita_Akio 参拜是日本内政。 中国历来主张不干涉内政。 很多事情是习惯就好了。

最近，日本出現兩則值得關注的動向。其一，自衛隊護衛艦今天通過台灣海峽，引起了中國的強烈抗議。這是在去年高市早苗首相就台灣有事發言引發中方反彈之後，日本再次以實際行動觸及台海敏感議題。其二，高市首相決定在本月靖國神社春季例大祭期間不進行參拜。這對於過去幾乎從不缺席的她而言，是一個明顯的轉變，也被普遍解讀為對中國與韓國關係的戰術性考量。 把這兩件事放在一起看，其實就能看出高市當前的價值排序與戰略判斷。一方面，在台灣海峽問題上，日本選擇維持存在感，甚至在必要時透過行動表達立場。這不僅關乎台灣，更直接牽動日本自身的海上安全與能源命脈。一旦默認中國對台海的內海化主張，日本未來的戰略空間將被壓縮。因此，在這個問題上，高市政府選擇的是清晰而有限度的強硬。 另一方面，在靖國神社問題上，高市則選擇暫時收斂。對日本保守派來說，不參拜意味著對自身信念的某種背離，因此內部批評在所難免。但若放在當前的國際局勢來看，這個決定並非單純的退讓，而是一種戰術安排。當台海局勢升溫、中東局勢動盪、日韓關係出現改善契機時，日本需要的是外交上的迴旋空間。適度降低象徵性衝突，反而有助於在更關鍵的安全議題上集中資源。 這樣的取捨，顯示出高市並非一味強硬的政治人物，而是具備一定彈性的現實主義者。該堅持的地方不退，例如對台海航行自由的立場。可以調整的地方則暫緩，例如參拜的時機。這種「能屈能伸」的特質，在當前多重危機並存的國際環境中，無疑有加分。 當然，這樣的操作不會沒有代價。對內，她需要面對保守派對價值一致性的質疑；對外，也必須承擔中國持續施壓的風險。但政治本質上就是在現實條件下做選擇。每一個決定，都代表著領導者對輕重緩急的判斷。 不過，四月這一次的不參拜，並不具有決定性意義。真正關鍵的時間點，是在今年八月十五日。那一天不僅是歷史記憶的象徵，更是日本政治人物展現立場的重要時刻。如果屆時高市能作出明確選擇，才足以說明她的價值並未動搖。 在動盪的國際局勢中，領導者面臨著巨大考驗，最重要的能力，或許就是要在理想和現實之間尋找平衡。 圖：轉發自@takaichi_sanae

Tom Cotton for President 2028 The Constitution protects ownership. It’s the foundation of America. Yet every year government taxes you for owning your home, your savings, your future. A tax on ownership is a violation of the Constitution itself. You feel economic struggle because you have no ownership. The asset economy grows. You watch from the outside. Look at your 401K. That’s what ownership does. It compounds. It grows while you sleep. Every American deserves that. But the government taxes it too. UBI gives you a check. UBO (Universal Basic Ownership) gives you a stake. Income gets spent. Ownership compounds. One makes you dependent. The other makes you free. This is why Cotton should run for president. Not to manage Washington. To give America back to Americans — as owners.

要破郑的功很容易。往所谓台独方面偏一偏。共军又会来炸鱼了。 说实话， 台湾问题是人为的问题。是跟美国叫板的问题。中国人根本不会介意领土问题。老百姓跟领土一点关系都没有。中国的版图扩张就是因为外来侵略。被侵略一次， 中国的版图就扩大一点。更何况台独。 现在共军知道美军的厉害。打是打不过了。搞软的。 台湾的天真人也不少。有些时候真的不想同情他们。让共军去收拾他们。 看看香港就知道日子不会好过的。

根據多家媒體報導，國民黨主席鄭麗文等人本月初訪問中國共六天，行程花費高達 480 萬元，竟全數由「台灣民主基金會」補助。這筆錢來自外交部預算，每一分錢，都是台灣納稅人的血汗錢。 我們必須追問：民主基金會的核心使命是什麼？它的存在是為了推廣自由價值、連結全球民主陣營、對抗威權擴張，讓世界看見台灣的韌性。然而，現在發生的現實卻極其荒謬——我們正拿著「推廣民主」的公帑，去資助一場與「獨裁威權」政權對接的政治行程。 這不是交流，而是嚴重的價值錯位。為什麼會有這種荒唐的事情發生？原因很簡單，因為現在國民黨在立法院擁有多數。所以，民主基金會現任的董事長叫韓國瑜。在他看來，國民黨是自己人。 最令人難以接受的是那組諷刺的對照。行政院長卓榮泰日前赴日，為台灣拓展民主盟友、強化台日關係，被視為外交突破，卻是「自費」前往，還被在野黨一再打壓。 一個為台灣拼民主的要自掏腰包，一個去對接威權的卻由全民買單。這不只是雙標，更是制度徹底偏離了初衷。 或許有人會辯稱這在程序上「合法」，但合法從來不代表合理。 中國長期將台灣的民主制度視為威脅，甚至制裁相關機構，結果台灣卻用民主基金會的經費，去安排與對手的政治接觸。這已經不是單純的政策問題，而是深層的價值混亂。 如果我們能容忍推動民主的資源，去資助對威權示好的行程，那麼未來，還有什麼底線是不能被合理化的？台灣的民主價值不應被如此揮霍，更不該成為政治人物走向威權懷抱的墊腳石。

People often look at PFE in the wrong way. PFE is a hedge fund with Acquisition-Driven Growth strategy. 1) It buys potential companies and tries to turn them into blockbuster drugs production. 2) it has most extensive pipelines in the pharmaceutical industry. 3) it has lot of scientists, sales people and regulatory policy experts. 4) it pays high dividends. >6%

@taiwanplusnews Let’s see if China is a peace loving country like Chairwoman Cheng Li-wen thinks. Try to change the national anthem, the national day, the national flag or even the name from ROC to Taiwan.

Taiwan's first lawmaker with Chinese citizenship, Li Chen-hsiu, says she accepts the Taiwan People's Party's decision to expel her, but denies any misconduct.

@PatrickMoorhead NVDA could have taken over Intel at $20 with less than 3% dilution of its stock (including 30% premium). Now NVDA is running around like chicken without head for strategic positioning. (That was my song) CEO Huang was busy with selling chips to China then.

This is 100% false for so many reasons I don’t even know where to start. I ignored it earlier but can’t anymore. $DELL $NVDA

@nexta_tv Satoshi Nakamoto is not an individual or group of individuals. The account has never been moved. It’s very difficult or impossible for any individual or group of individuals to fight the temptation to enjoy the benefit.

Has Bitcoin’s creator been revealed? The New York Times suggests that the person behind the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto could be cryptographer Adam Back — CEO of Blockstream and one of the earliest figures in the crypto community. He is indeed connected to the origins of the technology: Back created Hashcash, a system that became the foundation for Bitcoin’s mechanism. Because of this, he has long been considered a possible creator of the cryptocurrency. Back himself denies it and says he has no connection to Bitcoin’s creation. The wallet associated with Satoshi Nakamoto currently holds around $78 billion in Bitcoin.

@LipBuTan1 Finally someone is listening to what I said. Partially Put Elon on the intel board.

Elon has a proven track record of reimagining entire industries. This is exactly what is needed in semiconductor manufacturing today. Terafab represents a step change in how silicon logic, memory and packaging will get built in the future. Intel is proud to be a partner and work closely with Elon on this highly strategic project 🚀🚀
