美国总统特朗普今年"钦点"的美联储理事米兰（Stephen Miran）重申，美联储的政策立场对经济构成不 必要的限制，认为剔除"幻影通胀"后，"潜在"的通胀水平已接近联储的目标。在美联储内部对利率政策 深度分化之际，坚定支持特朗普降息呼声的米兰与其他多位联储官员表态形成鲜明对比。 美东时间15日周一，米兰在出席哥伦比亚大学的活动时表示，美国家庭对近期通胀经历感到痛苦是合理 的，物价虽然处于更高的水平但目前已重新企稳，货币政策应该反映这一现实。他重申美联储应更快降 息，警告维持政策不必要的紧缩将导致失业。 米兰称，剔除住房服务和统计扭曲因素后，潜在通胀正以低于2.3%的速度运行，处于目标2%的噪音范 围内。他指出，住房通胀反映的是两到四年前的供需失衡，而非当前状况。一些通胀驱动因素，如基于 当前高资产价格的投资组合管理费，反映的是统计怪象而非实际消费者价格体验。 同日，美联储"三把手"、纽约联储主席威廉姆斯（John Williams）表达了截然不同的立场。他表示，美 联储的货币政策已经为2026年"做好准备"，暗示进一步降息的门槛较高。今年拥有货币政策委员会 FOMC会议投票权的波士顿联储主席柯林斯（Sus ...

Core Viewpoint - The recent surge in copper prices is attributed not only to the supply shortage caused by the landslide at the Grasberg mine in Indonesia but also to three key factors originating from the United States, leading to predictions that copper prices will continue to reach historical highs by 2026 [1]. Group 1: Supply and Demand Dynamics - The international price of copper has been continuously rising, with the London Metal Exchange (LME) three-month copper futures reaching a peak of $11,771 per ton on December 8, marking the highest level in over 16 months [1]. - The Grasberg mine incident, which is the second-largest copper producer globally, is cited as a primary reason for the current price surge, but market analysts believe that this alone does not fully explain the dramatic increase [1]. Group 2: U.S. Economic Factors - The first factor is the optimistic outlook for the U.S. economy following three consecutive interest rate cuts by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), with predictions of an additional cut in 2026. This economic support is believed to positively influence copper prices, which are often seen as a barometer for global economic health [2]. - The second factor is the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), which has driven up the stock prices of major tech and semiconductor companies in the U.S. This trend is expected to have a ripple effect on global markets, including copper [2][5]. - The third factor is renewed concerns over tariffs imposed by former President Trump on copper, which had previously caused a spike in U.S. copper prices. The potential for future tariff increases has led to market speculation and adjustments [5][6]. Group 3: Market Sentiment and Speculation - There is a noted correlation between the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index and copper prices, indicating that investor sentiment around AI and technology is influencing copper market dynamics [5]. - The net long positions in copper futures have reached their highest level in approximately nine months, suggesting that speculators are increasingly betting on copper as they would on AI-related stocks [5]. - The inventory levels of copper in the U.S. are significantly higher than at the beginning of the year, while global inventories outside the U.S. are showing signs of shortage, contributing to the upward pressure on prices [6].

如果你去看半导体公司从2010年至今的股价走势年线，会发现，最漂亮的不是英伟达和AMD，而是博 通。 英伟达凭借通用GPU主导AI计算，加速器市场占据绝对份额。而博通选择了另一条路径，聚焦于定制 AI加速器ASIC和高速网络方案。谷歌、Meta、字节、Anthropic等都是博通的大客户。 谷歌 Gemini+ 博通正在显示惊人魅力，一方面谷歌近期开始量产的 TPUv7 在性能上已经超过了 H200， 部分指标也开始向英伟达的 B200 产品靠近。 更重要的是，谷歌自身的Gemini大模型表现并不逊色于依托英伟达的 GPT 表现。 博通的历史也很神奇，可以追溯到惠普公司的一次业务拆分。 1961年，惠普成立了元器件部门HP Associates，这是博通最早的起源。 1999年，惠普将该部门随同测试仪器业务一起拆分成安捷伦科技(Agilent)。 2005年，安捷伦又将其半导体产品部门出售给私募基金KKR和银湖，组建成为安华高科技（Avago Technologies）。 安华高于2009年在纳斯达克上市，股票代码AVGO。 1991年，另一股重要力量——最初的博通公司（Broadcom Corporatio ...
