当肯尼迪中心将更名为"特朗普-肯尼迪中心"的消息曝光时，即便是身为该中心董事会当然成员（ex officio member）的参议院共和党领袖、南达科他州议员约翰・图恩（John Thune）也倍感意外。 "啊，我刚听说这事。" 图恩在接受福克斯新闻频道采访时表示。1964年国会通过法案，将这座演艺中 心命名为约翰・F・肯尼迪纪念堂，以缅怀遇刺的前总统约翰・F・肯尼迪。图恩推断，国会"肯定会对 此进行审议…… 看看结果如何"。 第二任期的特朗普愈发大胆，频繁单方面采取行动，绕过或先发制人地规避国会山冗长的立法程序。他 今年签署了225道行政令，而国会仅通过61项法案。这一数字比他第一任期四年签署的行政令总数还多5 道，也是自1941年民主党总统富兰克林・德拉诺・罗斯福（Franklin Delano Roosevelt）以来，历任总统 在任期首年签署行政令数量最多的一次。回溯2017年，特朗普仅签署55道行政令，国会则通过96项法 案。 白宫发言人表示，尽管遭到国会民主党人的阻挠，特朗普仍采取了"强有力的行政行动"，并签署了"大 规模立法"以兑现其施政承诺。 这一局面让部分共和党议员感到不安。9月，特朗普政府 ...

以色列与伊朗因核计划爆发的12日冲突已过去半年，如今以色列官员发出预警：伊朗全力重建弹道导弹 库，两国恐再度爆发军事冲突。 以色列对伊红线大幅收紧，新冲突爆发概率陡升 "我们从不主动寻求对抗，但会紧盯任何潜在危险。"内塔尼亚胡说道。 针对伊朗弹道导弹研发发起打击，意味着以色列对伊朗的红线已大幅收紧。今年6月以色列发动突袭 时，核心打击目标是伊朗核计划——以色列将其视作关乎国家存亡的致命威胁。 事实上，以色列曾将摧毁伊朗常规远程武器列为其12日冲突的作战目标，且在冲突结束后警告伊朗：无 论重建核设施还是导弹体系，都将招致军事打击。以色列军事情报局伊朗分部前负责人、现任以色列国 家安全研究所高级伊朗研究员丹尼·西特里诺维奇（Danny Citrinowicz）表示，将弹道导弹研发划为红 线，会让两国明年爆发新冲突的概率大幅上升。 此番表态正值内塔尼亚胡筹备赴美之际，他将在年末与美国总统特朗普举行会晤。一名以色列官员透 露，以色列对伊朗弹道导弹研发进度的评估、以及后续可能采取的军事行动，将成为两国领导人会谈的 核心议题。 目前尚无法确定特朗普政府将如何看待以色列对伊新一轮打击计划。当下美方正敦促以色列落实由美国 斡 ...

Core Insights - The potential for silver prices to exceed $100 per ounce by 2026 has become a focal point for precious metal market strategists, driven by structural monetary dynamics rather than traditional technical indicators [1] - The combination of supply constraints, accelerating technological demand, and currency devaluation creates a scenario that far exceeds traditional precious metal cycles [1] Group 1: Price Threshold and Market Dynamics - A three-digit silver price refers to levels above $100 per ounce, significantly impacting portfolio allocation and wealth preservation strategies [2] - Historical analysis shows that since silver peaked at approximately $49.45 per ounce in 1980, its purchasing power relative to money creation has significantly declined, indicating that achieving true inflation-adjusted parity requires much higher nominal prices [2] - Current market positioning indicates that to reach $100 per ounce, silver would need to increase by at least 43% from its benchmark of $70 per ounce [3] Group 2: Supply Constraints and Industrial Demand - Global strategic silver inventory is a critical factor supporting rising silver prices, with major countries having depleted their reserves through technological advancements and strategic sales [11] - The transition of silver from a monetary metal to an industrial necessity is driven by the expansion of solar energy, electric vehicles, and advanced electronics, creating structural demand growth that exceeds traditional mining supply responses [12] - The mining industry faces structural challenges that limit its ability to respond to rising prices, including declining ore grades and lengthy development cycles for new mines [15][16] Group 3: Economic and Geopolitical Influences - The Federal Reserve's policy trajectory suggests a potential interest rate cut cycle in 2026, which historically correlates with conditions favorable for precious metal price breakthroughs [6] - Geopolitical tensions and trade wars may exacerbate supply shortages, particularly with major producing countries implementing export restrictions [26] - The anticipated economic downturn in 2026 could lead to increased demand for silver as a safe-haven asset, especially if stock market valuations decline significantly [24] Group 4: Mathematical Models and Predictions - Mathematical models suggest that if gold prices reach $6,000 to $8,000 per ounce, silver could achieve three-digit prices based on historical gold-silver ratios [30] - Industry analysis predicts a continuous annual silver supply gap of 150 to 200 million ounces by 2030, indicating that physical shortages could lead to exponential price increases [28] - The potential for a currency reset involving central bank digital currencies could further drive demand for silver, as historical precedents show that monetary system changes can lead to significant increases in precious metal prices [30]

Core Viewpoint - Analysts generally expect the stock market to continue its upward trend next year, but unforeseen events and risks could disrupt this outlook. Morgan Stanley identified three potential unexpected factors that could impact the market in 2026, predicting a 13% increase in the S&P 500 index due to strong corporate earnings and a "rolling recovery" in the U.S. economy [1]. Group 1: Jobless Productivity Boom - The U.S. economy may experience a "jobless productivity boom," which could suppress inflation and open the door for more interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. A weak job market could help contain wage growth and inflation, while accelerated productivity gains would support stable economic growth, potentially driving core inflation below 2% [1][2]. Group 2: Stock-Bond Paradigm Shift - The typical inverse relationship between stock and bond prices may reverse again. In 2025, both markets rose steadily, driven by a "bad news is good news" dynamic, where weak economic data fueled optimism for Fed rate cuts. However, if inflation falls to the Fed's target, this dynamic could shift back, making bonds a safe haven and a hedge against inflation [3]. Group 3: Surge in Commodity and Energy Prices - Commodity prices, including precious metals, saw significant increases in 2025 and may continue this trend in 2026. Factors such as ongoing Fed rate cuts, rising demand from China, and a weaker dollar could lead to a "blowout" in commodity prices. Predictions indicate that energy prices and overall commodity performance will improve due to supply constraints and increased demand driven by AI-related transactions [4][5][6].

美国财政部长斯科特·贝森特（Scott Bessent）正处于其政府生涯中可能具有决定性意义的事件的关键时 刻。 贝森特设计的筛选流程旨在避免这种失望——无论是对总统还是对他自己而言。他从一开始就设定了目 标：寻找支持降息、并愿意在制定货币政策时与白宫更好协作的候选人。贝森特已向特朗普提交了4名 最终候选人名单供其考量。 一位熟悉筛选过程的人士表示，贝森特并未支持任何特定候选人，而是专注于流程本身。 主要候选人被称为"两个凯文"。凯文·哈塞特（Kevin Hassett）是特朗普的长期经济顾问，现任国家经济 委员会（National Economic Council）主任。凯文·沃什（Kevin Warsh）是前美联储理事，特朗普在第一 任期内曾考虑让他担任主席一职。 另外两名候选人——美联储理事克里斯托弗·沃勒（Christopher Waller）和贝莱德（BlackRock）高管里 克·里德（Rick Rieder）——由于与特朗普的私人关系较弱，被认为当选可能性小得多。 原本的第五名候选人、美联储理事米歇尔·鲍曼（Michelle Bowman）已退出竞争。 美国总统特朗普表示，将在明年1月初选出下一 ...
