新岛在日本海岸附近海底火山喷发后出现

一座海底火山三周前在日本海岸附近爆发,产生了一座新岛。 这座无名海底火山位于日本本土以南约1200公里(750英里),离硫磺岛(Iwo Jima)1公里(0.6英里)的日本南海岸。 日本气象厅火山部门分析师宇井裕司说,在11月初,这座岛的直径约为100米(328英尺),海拔高度约为20米(66英尺)。 他补充说,这座新岛由于“脆弱”的形成已经开始侵蚀。 "我们只能观察它的发展。但这座岛可能不会持续很长时间。" 他说,专家仍在分析其发展细节,包括沉积物的情况。 如果这座新岛以熔岩或其他更坚固的物质形成,比如浮石,它的存续时间可能会更长。 爆发照片显示这座小岛上方有浓烟袅袅,它现已成为小笠原群岛的一部分。 全球约有1500座活火山,其中111座位于日本,日本坐落在所谓的“环太平洋火山带”上。

SoftBank Corp. completes nationwide expansion of all optical network in core areas in Japan leveraging Fujitsu’s disaggregation-type optical transmission system

TOKYO, Nov 10, 2023 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Fujitsu and SoftBank Corp. (“SoftBank”) today announced that SoftBank on October 26 completed the nationwide deployment in core areas of an all optical network in Japan using a disaggregated architecture (1) optical transmission system that supports open networks, including Fujitsu’s next-generation optical transmission platform "1 FINITY Ultra Optical System T900" (hereinafter 1FINITY T900). Through this initiative, Fujitsu and SoftBank aim to contribute to the realization of greener networks by building communication infrastructure with a lower environmental impact.The all optical network uses optical technology in all areas of the communications network. Leveraging Fujitsu's next-generation optical transmission system, the new network realizes a reduction of power consumption of up to 90% compared to previous networks (2) by connecting to equipment compatible with all optical technology and applying liquid cooling technology. Connected to conventional equipment, the latest photoelectric conversion technology reduces power consumption by about 50% compared to conventional equipment (2). In this way, the sustainable network enables high energy efficiency in any connection environment.Using a pair of optical fibers, Fujitsu and SoftBank further improved communication performance, achieving high capacity and high-speed transmission of up to 48.8Tbps (approximately twice as high as that of conventional (2)networks).With the introduction of the new optical transmission system, SoftBank aims to build a network that achieves carbon neutrality while meeting the ever-increasing demand for data communication in anticipation of future networks based on Beyond 5G/6G technology.Moving forward, Fujitsu and SoftBank will use leading-edge technologies to contribute to the solution of societal problems and contribute to the realization of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).Key Features of the optical transmission system introduced by SoftBank1. Convergence of all optical and IP networksSoftBank's IP router is equipped with a long-distance coherent (3) optical transceiver (DCO), which is connected using Fujitsu's newly developed 1FINITY L211 to meet SoftBank's requirements. This enables all optical connection without any photoelectric conversion within the optical transmission system. As a result, power consumption has been reduced by up to 90%. In addition, the two partners have realized a flexible network by utilizing IP network technologies including SoftBank's SRv6 (Segment Routing IPv6), addressing scale of routing (scalability), a task in general all optical network.2. Introduction of closed-loop liquid cooling technologyFujitsu's 1FINITY T900 is the first system in the world (4) to use liquid cooling technology in an optical transmission system to significantly improve environmental performance even when connecting to existing devices that are difficult to connect to all optical network devices. As a result, the system realizes cooling efficiency that is two times higher than that of conventional air cooling technology. By installing 12 modern coherent devices in a 2RU (rack unit) size enclosure, the system can accommodate 36 400GbE. The storage density is four times higher and power consumption is reduced by approximately 50% compared to conventional equipment used by SoftBank. In addition, the closed-loop liquid cooling technology, which accommodates all cooling structures in the equipment, eliminates the need for facility modifications and provides a highly reliable, maintenance-free system with an expected lifetime of 20 years.3. Disaggregation C+L ROADM architectureWith respect to the wavelength range used for transmission, products were conventionally divided in C-band, L-band and wavelength band. Fujitsu’s new system can handle both wavelength bands at once, and band per pair of optical fibers has been expanded to about twice that of conventional equipment (2). In addition, the disaggregation C+L ROADM architecture enables system upgrades as needed, and the L-band can be added later after opening only the C-band, enabling flexible equipment configurations to meet the demands of communication traffic. It provides a flexible network with low power consumption and investment efficiency without requiring extra equipment.(1) Disaggregated architecture :System in which blades are realized for each function, in contrast to the conventional shelf type in which multiple interface cards are mounted in a single unit(2) Comparison with equipment used by SoftBank.(3) Long-distance coherent :A method of transmitting signals using the phase and polarization of light, as opposed to the signal transmission method based on the strength and weakness of light, which has been widely used. Since there is little signal degradation, it is suitable for transmitting a large capacity signal to a long distance.(4) First system in the world :As of October 24, 2023 (according to Fujitsu research)About FujitsuFujitsu’s purpose is to make the world more sustainable by building trust in society through innovation. As the digital transformation partner of choice for customers in over 100 countries, our 124,000 employees work to resolve some of the greatest challenges facing humanity. Our range of services and solutions draw on five key technologies: Computing, Networks, AI, Data & Security, and Converging Technologies, which we bring together to deliver sustainability transformation.

Global Innovation & Value Summit (GIVS) 2023, Nov 17: ‘Moving Forward with ESG: Scoring for Value Creation’

KYOTO, Japan, Nov 10, 2023 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In 2023, the European Union’s European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG), the International Financial Reporting Standard’s (IFRS’s) International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) each published new guidance for how companies within their jurisdictions account for and report upon their Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Impacts. While Japan stands as the world’s 4th largest economy, many Japanese companies continue to lag in their ESG efforts, as Japan itself has not yet committed to requiring companies to report their impacts beyond the environmentally focused Task Force for Climate Disclosure (TCFD).This year’s Global Innovation and Value Summit (GIVS) 2023 will first introduce the latest advances in value measurement, sustainability disclosure reporting and ESG from the perspective of EFRAG, ISSB and the US SEC Climate Disclosures, and their impacts on how businesses and governments can effectively operate within these increasingly important, but complex, sustainability standards and frameworks.GIVS 2023 will then place these international advancements into the context of Japan’s historical embrace of a more socially conscious approach to business as well as the Japanese government's recent efforts related to its New Capitalism Task Force. Finally, GIVS 2023 will offer ideas and insights on how businesses, not only within Japan and Asia but globally, can integrate, enhance and implement value-focused sustainability initiatives.This event is designed to more deeply explore how all of these ideas can help guide the next evolutionary step beyond the SDGs that were raised by The Value Research Center and ESG-IREC at the United Nations General Assembly Science Summit (SSUNGA78) in September 2023.It will bring together some of the world’s top experts in value measurement and scoring, sustainability and ESG issues to discuss, debate and brainstorm new approaches to value creation, responsible business and sustainability initiatives and offer ideas and models for their implementation in 2024 and beyond.Agenda: IAFOR GIVS 2023Date: Friday 17 November, 2023, 10:00-17:30Venue: Saji Memorial Hall, Osaka University Nakanoshima Center, Osaka, Japan10:00-10:45:  Opening Remarks- Jun Arima, President, The International Academic Forum;

迪瓦利节,光明节,在印度和海外印度人中如何庆祝?

排灯是印度一年中最重要的节日——尤其是对印度教徒来说。 它在全球人口最多国家印度以及全球印度裔社区被各种信仰的超过10亿人庆祝。在五天时间里,人们参加欢乐聚会、烟花表演、盛宴和祈祷。 排灯来源于“Deepavali”一词,意为“一排灯”。庆祝者会在家门口点亮传统陶土油灯,象征着光明战胜黑暗,知识战胜无知。 排灯在哪一天?这个节日的日期根据印度历法确定,通常落在每年10月下旬或11月上旬。 今年,排灯将于11月10日开始,主要庆祝日为11月12日。 印度教排灯故事是什么?虽然排灯主要是印度教的重要宗教节日,但它也被锡克教、耆那教和佛教徒庆祝。不同地区对排灯的起源故事有所不同。但所有故事都有一个共同主题,即善胜恶。 在印度南部,排灯庆祝神灵克里希纳消灭恶魔纳拉卡的胜利。纳拉卡曾囚禁妇女并折磨他的臣民。在印度北部,排灯纪念罗摩、他的妻子悉多和弟弟拉克什曼纳从14年的森林流放中凯旋归来。 如何庆祝排灯?这个节日带来许多独特的传统,不同地区也有差异。但所有庆祝活动都有光明、烟花、盛宴、新衣和祈祷这些共同点。 —在印度南部,许多人早上会洗个热油浴,象征着沐浴在神圣的恒河中,进行身心的净化。 —在北部,向象征财富和繁荣的女神拉克什米致敬是常规做法。 在排灯之夜赌博是一项流行传统,因为人们相信那天下注的人将在整年中兴旺。许多人在排灯的第一个日子“达纳特拉斯”购买黄金,他们认为这将带来好运。 放烟花是一项珍贵传统,与亲友交换甜食和礼物也很常见。排灯庆祝活动通常包括“兰戈里”——用彩色粉末在地面绘制几何和花式图案。 其他信仰的排灯故事是什么?耆那教徒、佛教徒和锡克教徒也有自己的排灯故事: —耆那教徒将排灯视为伟大教师马哈维拉大师得解脱的日子,即从生死轮回中解脱。 —锡克教徒庆祝“班迪乔尔迪瓦斯”——与排灯日期重合的日子,纪念被莫卧儿帝国皇帝贾汉吉尔监禁12年的尊贵人物古鲁哈尔戈宾释放。 —佛教徒将该日视为印度皇帝阿育王在公元前3世纪改宗佛教的日子。

墨西哥移民官员在拖车中发现123名被困的移民

当局在墨西哥中部圣路易斯波托西州的马特瓦拉市发现123名中美洲和南美洲移民被困在一辆拖车中,墨西哥移民机构周四表示。 圣路易斯波托西州检察长办公室的官员在周三在靠近新莱昂州边境的城市马特瓦拉发现这些移民,当地一名居民报告说听到拖车箱里传来求救声。 营救出的大多数移民来自中美洲国家危地马拉、尼加拉瓜、洪都拉斯和萨尔瓦多,以及厄瓜多尔4人和1名古巴人,根据墨西哥国家移民机构的说法。其中包括34名儿童。 移民机构没有透露这些移民是如何被困在那里的,也没有透露他们原定目的地,但这类移民群体通常希望到达美国。 同一天,得克萨斯州埃尔帕索对面的墨西哥城华雷斯,警方逮捕3名涉嫌人口走私的嫌疑人,因为他们在一幢房子里发现11名危地马拉移民被困。根据奇瓦瓦州安全部门的说法。 奇瓦瓦州检察长已经对这3名嫌疑人展开调查,其中2人只有16岁。 绑架和勒索是移民通过墨西哥北上时常面临的危险,许多移民都依靠当地黑帮为他们提供安全通行的付费。 周三,一队从危地马拉步行北上的移民车队在奇亚帕斯州南部小镇韦斯特拉封锁了一条高速公路,他们表示如果继续步行的话,担心会遭到犯罪分子的袭击。他们周四继续封锁这条高速公路,希望通过此举施加压力,迫使墨西哥当局给予他们临时文件,允许他们前往美国边境。 今年,美国和墨西哥南部边境面临着越来越多的移民北上。根据巴拿马政府数据,2023年通过巴拿马地峡从哥伦比亚进入巴拿马的移民已超过40万人,2022年为25万人。

美国对叙利亚武器设施进行空袭,该设施被伊朗使用,以应对袭击美军的行动

美国武装部队周三对叙利亚东部的迈苏伦武器储存设施进行了自卫式空袭,以应对近期针对美国人员在伊拉克和叙利亚的一系列攻击。 根据美国国防部称,这次空袭是由两架F-15战斗机实施的,目标是迈苏伦武器储存设施。 "总统保护美国人员安全没有比这更高的优先级,他下令实施今天的行动,以明确表明美国将保护自己、人员和利益免受伤害,"国防部长劳埃德·奥斯汀周三表示。 视频显示了两架战斗机首次打击后发生的次级爆炸。 自10月17日以来,在伊拉克和叙利亚,美国和联军部队至少遭受46次攻击,其中许多来自无人机打击。这些攻击中,在伊拉克发生24次,在叙利亚发生22次。它们包括一种单向攻击无人机和火箭。 大多数攻击都成功被军事力量中断,大多数未能达到目标,这要归功于坚固的防御。然而,一次攻击导致一名美国承包商死亡,截至11月9日,美国军人受伤56人,根据美国国防官员称。 根据美国国防部副发言人萨宾娜·辛格称,其中25人是创伤性脑损伤或TBI,所有服役人员已返回职务。 许多敌对火箭瞄准了在伊拉克和叙利亚的美国和联军部队,例如叙利亚的幼发拉底河支持站和绿村支持站。 这些攻击源于以色列和哈马斯在加沙地带的持续暴力。美国支持以色列。 该机构表示,美国"完全准备采取进一步必要措施保护我们的人员和设施"。上月,奥斯汀明确指责伊朗领导人,将这些攻击归咎于他们。 "美国不寻求冲突,也没有意图或欲望参与进一步敌对行动,但这些伊朗支持的攻击对美军来说是不可接受的,必须停止,"他说。"伊朗想隐藏自己的手段,否认在这些针对我们部队的攻击中扮演的角色。我们不会让他们得逞。如果伊朗的代理人对美军继续发动攻击,我们将不惜采取进一步必要措施保护我们的人员。"

It is expected that the use of this technology can help speed up the handling of medical cases, said Djoko Kuswanto, ITS lecturer and medical equipment inventor.ITS launches seven medical technology devices using integrated 3D design and digital fabrication technology - a boost to the country's MedTech industry [IMAGE: ITS].The new products include AMO3D, a 3D-printed implant mold based on patient data; GUO3D, a 3D-printed work support tool; and PRO3D, a 3D-printed body protective device made using patient-specific scans. These tools are the only ones in Indonesia that combine innovation and digital technology for use in healthcare settings.ITS has also created products called HUMA3D in the form of a mannequin, and TSM.Bones, a replica of human bones for educational purposes and clinical training for aspiring medical professionals.The final products are RiseHand, a tool that assists patients with amputated fingers in grasping objects, and Surgical Instrument, a range of tools for surgical operations, including scissors, knives, and tweezers.These medtech products, which were launched at the 35th Hospital Expo, Jakarta Convention Center on October 18 have been used by several hospitals and universities in Indonesia, and hundreds of units of the devices have been ordered. So the quality of these products is no less competitive comparing with products from developed countries, Kuswanto said.Bambang Pramujati, ITS Deputy Rector, said: The launch of these medtech devices is proof of ITS' commitment to developing technology in the health sector. The large volume of imported medical equipment and the rapid development of technology prompted ITS to develop the medical equipment by increasing the domestic component level to above 40 percent.Besides collaborating with Airlangga University Hospital (RSUA) in the research and trials phase, the development used local components, and digital technology, said Pramujati. Digital 3D printing technology, artificial intelligence (AI) augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), will be used to improve health care in Indonesia, Pramujati said.Nike Besta Sari, Director of PT Tekno Sains Medika, said: The price of the products is lower compared to other similar products. For example, HUMA3D is being sold for just under Rp50 million (around US$3,200), which makes it cheaper compared to similar products that cost hundreds of millions of rupiah.Using locally-made components, the new devices are produced on a pre-order system. Sales pricing is less than that of imported products, but does not reduce product quality, Sari said, adding that the company would be holding development workshops regarding the healthcare tools at various locations throughout Indonesia.By Yashinta Difa Pramudyani, Edit by Anton Santoso, COPYRIGHT (c) ANTARA 2023 Copyright 2023 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

一个男子利用苹果AirTag追踪和找回他车道上被偷的宝马汽车:“非常疯狂”

一个加拿大人感谢自己过去的决定,因为他在车上放了一个29美元的苹果AirTag,使他能追踪并找回被偷的车。 萨默·曼苏尔(Saamer Mansoor)住在安大略省温莎,他说周日上午6点他惊奇地发现自己的宝马车从车道上被偷走了。 “那真的很疯狂。”曼苏尔告诉CTVNews。 曼苏尔说,他兄弟开车去清真寺的路上经过他家,问他车去哪了,因为车不在车道上。 “所以我就问,我的车去哪了?”曼苏尔告诉该电视台。 这位忙碌的父亲回想起,周六他带着“非常生病”的2岁儿子到处跑,忘了升起驾驶侧车窗。 “我当时在照顾我2岁的儿子,他生病很严重,”曼苏尔告诉当地新闻台。“他在哭,我能做的只有安慰他,确保他(健康)没问题。” 小偷趁他不注意时偷走了他的车。 意识到自己的粗心大意后,曼苏尔想起6个月前他在车上放了一个AirTag。 他打开手机上的“找我”应用后,发现车停在附近的一家汽车旅馆。 他立即赶往汽车旅馆,在路上给当地警方打电话。 他成功找回车子和车内大部分物品,CTVNews报道。温莎警察局暂未回应Digital的确认请求。 “当有更重要的事,或者家庭紧急情况时,很容易不去担心其他事,”他说。“请小心。” 苹果公司(Apple Inc.)暂未回应Digital的评论请求。

墨西哥一所困扰重重的女子监狱5个月内自杀8人

墨西哥一个监狱近5个月内发生8起自杀案 一所位于墨西哥的女子监狱因食物中毒和医疗条件差而饱受指责,近4个半月又发生8起自杀案,当地当局周四确认此事。 联邦监狱管理局在声明中确认了这些自杀案,并表示已采取措施改善墨西哥城南部莫雷洛斯州一所女子监狱的情况。 该机构表示已更换监狱管理人员,并增加体育、文化和手工艺等活动,以满足监狱约1000名囚犯的需要。 早前报告显示,该监狱条件恶劣,囚犯常吃腐烂食物。国家人权委员会表示,2022年有400名囚犯因食物中毒发作。 该报告称,女囚患病后未得到适当医疗救治;许多人因医院无药可用而未能吃药。 多个权利和倡导团体7月联合发表的声明称,医疗照顾不足“构成系统性侵犯监禁女性获得医疗保健的权利”,且“严重违反人权和尊严”。 该联邦监狱近年来还接收了其他州转移来的囚犯。

希腊将调查大量移民船舶沉没事故的处理方式

希腊国家监察长宣布,他们将启动一项独立调查,调查6月发生的一起造成数百名移民试图进入欧洲的过载船只沉没事故中,海岸警卫队应对情况。 这个独立机构表示,鉴于希腊海岸警卫队明确拒绝启动纪律调查以响应国家监察长书面要求,他们作出这一决定。 欧洲最重要的人权组织欧洲理事会欢迎这一举动。 欧洲理事会人权专员Dunja Mijatović表示,设立独立调查以确定事实经过,如果必要,追究相关责任人的责任,“极为重要”。 她在声明中说,今天希腊监察机构采取的举措,对此做出很重要贡献。 一个对希腊海军和海岸警卫队有管辖权的军事法庭,也在进行6月14日船难的初步调查,从中救出104名生还者和78具遗体。 据估计,当时船上可能有多达750人,大多数人躲在下层舱室,当船突然倾斜并迅速沉没时。如果是这样,这将是地中海地区同类最严重的灾难之一。 该法庭还处理了40名生还者提起的诉讼,他们指责海岸警卫队未能防止船难和人员伤亡。 活动人士和人权组织强烈批评海岸警卫队处理此次行动的方式,尽管一艘巡逻船在船只下沉前几小时一直护航该渔船,并在希腊西南45英里的深水区目睹其下沉。 海岸警卫队表示,沉没似乎是由于船上人员大量移动到一边,导致这艘过载渔船翻覆。它还表示,这些试图从利比亚前往意大利的移民之前拒绝了援助。 但是一些生还者表示,船只是在一次失败的拖船尝试中沉没的——海岸警卫队强烈否认这一点。 国家监察长表示,需要“完全透明”地了解希腊当局如何处理此次行动。

Tenth Study Demonstrates Good Health in Vegan Dogs

WINCHESTER, ENGLAND, Nov 10, 2023 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Although biologically omnivores, dogs are often labelled as carnivores. Almost never are they considered vegetarians. Yet vegan pet foods (excluding any animal products) are increasingly being developed for environmental and animal welfare reasons. And now a study just published in the British Journal of Nutrition has demonstrated good health outcomes in dogs fed vegan diets. Dr Sarah Dodd and other veterinary nutritional specialists from Canada's Ontario Veterinary College found that 31 dogs fed vegan diets for three months had health outcomes as good as 30 fed meat-based diets.The dogs were comprehensively assessed via veterinary examinations, blood and urine tests, and X-rays. Vitamin D plays a key role in regulating bodily calcium levels, and in maintaining good bone health. It is normally sourced from animals, and the effectiveness of vegan vitamin D had been uncertain. However, Dodd's research group showed that blood levels of vitamin D and calcium did not change in dogs fed entirely vegan diets. X-rays confirmed that bone mineral content and density were unaffected, and other health parameters were also maintained.This is the latest among 10 studies that have now confirmed good health outcomes in dogs fed vegan diets. Some are very large-scale studies, following an explosion of recent interest in this field. In 2002, Dodd and her colleagues analysed the lifespans of 1,201 dogs, finding that dogs fed vegan diets lived 1.5 years longer, on average. Said Andrew Knight, a veterinary Professor of Animal Welfare, "That equates to around an extra decade, at the end of a human lifespan. And as well as longer lives, dogs fed vegan diets seem to enjoy better quality of life, because rates of key illnesses impacting life quality, consistently appear lower." In 2002 Prof. Knight and colleagues also studied health outcomes in 2,536 dogs and concluded that the healthiest and least hazardous diets for dogs were nutritionally sound vegan diets.Even cats appear to benefit from vegan diets, provided these are nutritionally-sound. At least three studies have confirmed positive health findings in cats. A 2023 study of 1,369 cats by Knight and colleagues calculated reductions in risks of a broad range of illness indicators, for cats fed vegan diets. Their detailed analysis of feeding behaviour of 2,308 dogs and 1,135 cats also found that average pets appeared to enjoy vegan meals, as much as those based on meat.Knight commented that these new studies had opened the door to major environmental benefits offered by vegan pet food. His 2023 study calculated that vegan pet food could save enormous quantities of greenhouse gases, land, and water and that resultant food energy savings could feed billions of additional people globally. Another landmark study also recently identified major climate benefits associated with plant-based diets.However, Knight cautioned that, "to safeguard the health of our pets, it is important we feed only commercial vegan pet foods labelled as nutritionally complete, produced by reputable companies with good standards."Contact InformationAndrew Knight,Veterinary Professor of Animal Welfareandrew.knight@winchester.ac.uk Copyright 2023 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Lyft报告第三季度收入和利润强劲,但总订购量落后于优步

Lyft(纳斯达克:LYFT)公布了第三季度的业绩超出收入和利润预期,但与其较大的竞争对手Uber(纽约证券交易所:UBER)在总订单量增长方面表现不及。Lyft的总订单量增长15%,而Uber的出行业务增长31%。 尽管Lyft在9月份以29%的市场份额保持第二大的出租车叫车平台地位,但它面临经济不确定性的担忧,分析师认为它可能比Uber更容易受影响。Lyft的市场份额从年初的27%略有增加。公司将成功归因于具有竞争力的定价策略、改进的成本结构以及更高效的机场出行、预约出行和优先叫车组合。 Lyft报告活跃乘客达2240万人,比去年增长10%,这主要归因于更低的价格。公司预计第四季度的收入将同比季度微增,超出市场预期。第三季度收入达到11.6亿美元,超过分析师的114亿美元预期,调整后核心利润为9200万美元,也超过8260万美元的预期。 Lyft预测当前季度的调整后核心利润,即一项密切关注的盈利指标,将在5000万至6000万美元之间,高于预期的4880万美元,根据LSEG数据。积极的业绩表明Lyft能够应对挑战,并在出租车叫车市场中保持竞争力。

索尼第二季度营收下降29% 芯片短缺影响

美国《索尼》(NYSE:SONY)公司报告,2022年7月至9月季度的经营利润同比下降29%,主要原因是其图像传感器和金融部门业绩较差。该季度利润达到2630亿日元(约1.74亿美元),未达到分析师预测的3060亿日元。公司面临芯片部门的挑战,其图像传感器业务利润同比下降37%,原因为手机需求下降导致销量下滑。 索尼公司总裁东木博树承认北美市场同比大幅下降,但对下一个财政年度的复苏表示乐观。尽管面临挑战,公司仍保持将销售2500万台PlayStation 5(PS5)游戏机的目标。公司希望从推出新一代体积更小的游戏机设备中获益。 东木博树承认实现PS5销售目标存在困难,但索尼在第二季度已销售490万台PS5,全财年累计销量达820万台。10月发布的《蜘蛛侠2》增加了年底购物旺季的乐观情绪,该游戏在10月底已售出500万份。 索尼电影部门宣布与任天堂合作共同融资和发行以任天堂经典游戏《塞尔达传说》为原型的真人电影改编版。分析师提出索尼具有强大的发行网络和出版业绩记录,两家日本娱乐巨头未来可能会有更深层次的合作。 公司保持全年经营利润预测为1170亿日元,但将销售和净收入预测提高各2%。索尼股价在发布业绩报告前下跌0.8%,全年至今已上涨32%。

Novavax 超出收入预期,寻求进一步减少成本

Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX)的季度收入超出了市场预期,主要得益于美国政府为支持临床试验的成本提供的资助。该公司一直依靠减少成本措施和其改良型新冠病毒疫苗的商业销售,表示准备在来年实施额外的成本减少。 Novavax股价在早期交易中上涨近4%,因为公司预测到2025年底其现金储备将超过20亿美元。然而,尽管财务前景看好,Novavax仍重申了其“持续经营风险”警告。 总部位于马里兰州的生物技术公司报告第三季度收入为1.87亿美元,比去年同期7.3458亿美元下降,但超过了市场预期的1.585亿美元。Novavax强调了它优化美国资助机会的能力,这对于形成积极财务结果贡献良多。 该公司强调了其减少成本措施的承诺,并宣布第三季度减少了1.28亿美元的负债。Novavax准备在2024年实施额外3亿美元的成本减少,使其规模与预期较小的新冠病毒疫苗市场相匹配。节省成本的努力将包括减少闲置产能和设施支持的 overhead 支出。 Novavax预计2023-2024年美国新冠病毒疫苗市场规模将在3000万至5000万剂之间。该公司承认,今年新冠病毒疫苗市场规模远小于最初预期,到10月27日,美国约1.5亿人,约占人口4.5%,已接种更新版新冠病毒疫苗。 截至9月30日,Novavax报告持有现金6.66亿美元,比6月底的5.18亿美元增加。该公司采用的新冠病毒疫苗技术与辉瑞(PFE.N)和Moderna(MRNA.O)的mRNA技术相比更传统,于10月在美国获得授权。 新冠病毒大流行早期,Novavax面临挑战,导致生产问题推迟了其申报审批,使其错失了最初新冠病毒疫苗市场红利期,从而受益的竞争对手是其对手。去年,该公司股价下跌了93%,而今年下跌约34%。

Nvidia 考虑在中国推出新芯片以应对出口限制

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA)据报道正在为中国市场准备推出三款新芯片,当地媒体周四披露了此消息。这一举措是在美国禁止公司向中国企业出售两款高端人工智能(AI)芯片和一款顶级游戏芯片之后。 据星市日报引述知情人士透露,这三款芯片分别名为HGX H20、L20 PCIe和L2 PCIe,可能会在11月16日正式发布。 10月,Nvidia透露,美国新出台的出口限制将阻止公司向中国市场销售两款定制人工智能芯片A800和H800。此外,公司其中一款顶级游戏芯片RTX 4090也将立即受到这些限制的影响。 Nvidia一直占据中国70亿美元人工智能芯片市场超过90%的份额。美国最新限制预计将为国内企业如华为技术(HWT.UL)在该行业取得发展创造机会。早前有报道称,百度(9888.HK)今年向华为订购大量人工智能芯片,或预料未来可能无法从Nvidia获得芯片供应。
