【环球网报道】据美国《野兽日报》《华盛顿邮报》等媒体报道，美国总统特朗普当地时间5月1日在亚拉巴马大学毕业典礼上面向毕业生发表演讲 时，出人意料地"挖苦"埃隆·马斯克。美媒此前传出，马斯克目前已不再在白宫实体办公的消息，称其正准备卸任在美政府效率部的官方职务。 《野兽日报》称，不过二人最终仍然走近。特朗普虽然通常对马斯克赞誉有加，但在过去几个月里，他也嘲弄过马斯克。"埃隆不肯回家。我甩不掉 他，"特朗普去年11月曾说，"直到我不再喜欢他。" 马斯克被视为美国总统特朗普的亲密盟友，在新一届美国政府中牵头美国政府效率部的工作，帮助特朗普大幅削减联邦开支、大规模裁减联邦雇员。 美国白宫2月曾表示，马斯克的身份是"特殊政府雇员"。据美国媒体报道，按照相关规定，作为"特殊政府雇员"，马斯克一年内服务时长不得超过130 天。这意味着，从1月20日算起，马斯克任期最晚在5月底结束。如果只计算工作日，其任期最晚于7月结束。 近期，马斯克在美国政府效率部的任职变动频传。今年4月22日，马斯克在公司财报电话会议上说，从5月开始，他将"大幅"减少管理政府效率部的时 间，"将把更多时间投入到特斯拉"。他同时表示会继续"每周花一两天时 ...

各位好，我是帮主郑重。今天咱们聊聊最近美国快递行业扔下的一颗重磅炸弹——UPS突然宣布裁员2万人，还计划关闭73个设施。这事儿背后可不简 单，我花了两天时间研究财报和行业动态，发现这可能是一场影响全球物流格局的大变革。 总的来说，UPS的裁员不是孤立事件，而是行业变革的缩影。未来的快递行业，要么像亚马逊一样自建生态，要么像UPS一样断臂求生，要么像极兔一样 用技术突围。作为中长线投资者，我会持续关注那些能在效率、成本和客户结构上找到平衡点的企业。这就是今天的解读，我是帮主郑重，咱们下期 见。 第三个原因，人力成本压得喘不过气。UPS去年和卡车司机工会签了个"天价合同"，5年内要多花300亿美元，司机时薪涨到49美元，还取消了强制加班。 这本来是为了避免罢工，但没想到直接把利润率压到了地板上。现在裁员关厂，其实是在"拆东墙补西墙"，用减少人力来对冲工会的压力。 不过，这事儿背后还有更深层的行业逻辑。首先，快递行业正在经历"效率革命"。中通、极兔这些中国企业已经用上了无人车和自动分拣机，一小时能处 理1万件包裹。UPS也在投钱搞自动化，计划把400个设施改造成智能枢纽。这就像当年的柯达，不拥抱数字化就得被淘汰。 ...
