Skupina států EU usiluje o rychlejší pokrok v čipovém průmyslu

Devět zemí Evropské unie pracuje na urychlení plánů na podporu průmyslu počítačových čipů v bloku a hodlá své návrhy předložit do léta, uvedl v pátek jeden z vedoucích představitelů koalice.

Koalice, která zahrnuje Itálii, Francii, Německo, Španělsko a Nizozemsko, dělá „domácí úkoly pro nový zákon o čipech“, uvedl v rozhovoru nizozemský ministr hospodářství Dirk Beljaarts s odkazem na možný druhý program financování polovodičového průmyslu ze strany EU, který by následoval po zákonu o čipech v roce 2023.

Tento zákon, který je v současné době přezkoumáván, nesplnil klíčové cíle, ale má se za to, že zabránil zhoršení situace evropského průmyslu tváří v tvář větším programům státní podpory ve Spojených státech a Číně.

Častou kritikou je, že proces, v němž státy poskytovaly finanční prostředky a Evropská komise schvalovala projekty, byl příliš pomalý.

Beljaarts uvedl, že jde o to, aby byl napodruhé cílenější.

„Musíme přidělovat finanční prostředky,“ řekl Beljaarts. „Jak soukromé, tak veřejné prostředky, abychom tento sektor popostrčili, a také abychom zajistili, že dojde k efektu prosakování a že z toho budou mít prospěch i (malé a střední) podniky.“

Uvedl, že Evropa má sice špičkové hráče v oblasti výzkumu a vývoje a vybavení, včetně mocné společnosti ASML (AS:ASML), ale nedostatky se týkají balení čipů a pokročilé výroby poté, co společnost Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) odložila plány na výstavbu špičkové továrny v Německu.

Market optimism grows despite looming S&P 500 correction risks

US stock indices are advancing on a wave of optimism surrounding potential progress in trade negotiations between Washington and Beijing. Investors are hopeful that an eventual agreement could ease geopolitical tensions and inject fresh momentum into the market.

However, analysts warn that a correction in the S&P 500 remains likely, particularly if corporate earnings continue to weaken. The prospect of slowing profit growth across US companies may act as a headwind to further upside in equity valuations. Follow the link for details.

Markets open the week cautiously optimistic, awaiting concrete steps

The new trading week kicked off on a positive note, even as major indices closed Friday's session near the flatline. Market participants are closely monitoring statements from officials hinting at progress in trade talks, which is creating a favorable backdrop for investments.

Still, a high degree of uncertainty remains: no concrete outcomes from the negotiations have been announced yet, and any negative headline could spark short-term turbulence. As a result, investors are adopting a wait-and-see stance, looking for greater clarity in the coming days.

Statements on trade talks support markets, but risks persist

Positive rhetoric surrounding trade negotiations continues to provide a supportive backdrop for the market, despite the absence of any formal agreements. Heightened volatility is creating opportunities for short-term speculation, drawing in more active market participants.

However, analysts are flagging persistent risks, including the potential for renewed tariff pressure and continued uncertainty around monetary policy.

These factors could contribute to instability in the near term.

US corporations warn of tariff-related losses

Major American companies are stepping up their criticism of tariff policy, citing potential losses that could reach tens of billions of dollars. Pressure on corporate profits may lead to a slowdown in investment activity and force a re-evaluation of expansion plans.

This is also shifting investor interest toward domestically focused companies that are less exposed to external volatility. Some market participants are even exploring short positions in the most vulnerable stocks.

Microsoft adjusts partnership strategy with OpenAI

Microsoft is revising the terms of its collaboration with OpenAI, reducing its equity stake while maintaining access to cutting-edge artificial intelligence technologies. This shift may provide the company with greater flexibility in developing its own solutions and reduce reliance on its partner.

Analysts view the move as strategically advantageous: it opens the door for Microsoft to further strengthen its position in the cloud computing and AI solutions space.

Such actions could enhance investor confidence over the long term.
