(创作不易,一篇文章需要作者查阅多方资料,整合分析、总结,望大家理解) 一份措辞犀利的讲话稿在网上流传,核心观点就一句,人民币最大的敌人,是中国人自己。 这话听起来刺耳,甚至有些"恨铁不成钢"的味道。 但如果你仔细看完里头的逻辑链,再对照当下的现实,背后那股寒意,恐怕不是空穴来风。 全球半导体产业的半壁江山,现在是谁在掌舵? 英特尔的陈立武、博通的陈福阳、AMD的苏姿丰……全球前五大芯片厂商,华裔掌门人占了多数。 再看营收巨头,台积电、联发科、英伟达(文中"漫威304"疑为笔误)、瑞昱、联咏、SK海力士,哪个 背后没有华人技术和管理团队的身影? 这说明了什么?说明在决定人类下一轮科技革命走向的顶级智力竞赛场,华人族群的表现,堪称碾压 级。 再看奥数、AI这些硬核竞技场,西方国家的顶尖代表队里,华裔面孔几乎成了"标配"。 这背后是东亚儒家文化圈极致的"内卷"自强,叠加一些研究中提到的族群智力优势,共同造就的恐怖竞 争力。 按理说,拥有这样一群"最强大脑 ...

Xin Lang Cai Jing· 2026-02-20 03:52
一批新生代基金经理正走向台前。 近年来,基金经理队伍不断扩容,最新数据已突破4100人,而担任基金经理年限不足三年的人数接近 1500人,占比超过35%。尽管近年来市场更强调投研平台化、基金经理去明星化等,但是从基金业绩榜 上仍不难看出,一批新生代基金经理正走向台前,凭借鲜明的风格特征,业绩表现进攻性强,成为同行 中的翘楚,受到业内关注。 业绩排行榜涌现新锐基金经理 基金业绩榜显示,近一年业绩表现居前的基金经理中,不少基金经理担任基金经理年限不足三年。此 外,有不少人在其管理产品任内业绩实现翻倍。 所管产品任内回报实现翻倍业绩增长的基金经理人数更多,如长城基金基金经理陈子扬、信达澳亚基金 经理张明烨、前海开源基金经理梁策、华泰柏瑞基金经理陈文凯、融通基金经理李进、华商基金基金经 理彭雾、易方达基金经理何一铖、嘉实基金基金经理彭民、申万菱林基金经理卜忠林、路博迈基金经理 黄道立等。 任内实现50%以上回报的基金经理更是比比皆是。 具体来看,长城基金基金经理陈子扬自2023年8月开始公开管理公募产品,在至今2.5年时间内取得 103%的绩优业绩。 不难发现,上述基金经理中,除了一些行业赛道基金经理凭借行业波动贝塔 ...
三星HBM4单颗定价700美元,存储芯片紧缺或延续至2027年,港股概念股闻风大涨
Jin Rong Jie· 2026-02-20 03:33
值得注意的是,SK海力士去年8月向英伟达供应HBM4时单价约为500美元,仅半年后价格便再度大幅 攀升。彭博情报分析师Masahiro Wakasugi在报告中写道,700美元的定价意味着三星HBM4的营业利润 率高达50%至60%。"如果三星向英伟达供应更多HBM芯片,2026年三星与SK海力士的平均售价差距将 会缩小,因为面向英伟达的(芯片)定价会高于其他客户。" HBM4报价走高的背后,是AI驱动的存储芯片供需持续失衡。韩国KB证券指出:"截至2月,与去年第 四季度相比,内存芯片的短缺程度进一步加剧,主要客户的订单满足率仅为60%。AI数据中心企业占据 了三星内存出货量的70%。"面对需求激增,三星与SK海力士均已提前推进扩产计划——三星将平泽P4 工厂投产时间前移约三个月至今年四季度,SK海力士则计划将龙仁一期晶圆厂试运行提前至明年2至3 月。 2月20日,受三星电子HBM4芯片涨价消息提振,港股存储概念股走强,其中澜起科技(06809.HK)盘 中一度涨超8%。 据韩国《朝鲜日报》报道,三星电子正就其最新一代高带宽内存芯片HBM4展开定价谈判,计划将单颗 售价定在约700美元,较上一代HBM3E高出 ...
一文读懂2026年至今的全球市场:什么在涨?美股为何不行?这种趋势会持续吗?
Hua Er Jie Jian Wen· 2026-02-20 03:15
高盛认为经济周期尚早但部分标的的市场估值过高,预计AI与科技股高位震荡,资金持续涌向"便 宜"的周期性资产。投资者应警惕高估值板块,拥抱受益复苏的新兴市场与旧经济板块,以分散配置应 对未来的波动分化。 据追风交易台,高盛2月19日发布报告《全球市场观点:周期顺风,估值逆风》,指出2026年全球市场 的核心矛盾:经济周期尚早,但市场周期已晚。这意味着尽管宏观经济数据持续走强,但部分股票和信 贷市场的"高估值"已成为脆弱点。 对投资者而言,这创造了明确的投资方向,拥抱那些受益于经济复苏但估值仍然便宜的周期性资产,同 时警惕已经涨幅过大的AI和大型科技股。 具体来看,新兴市场股票、澳元、铜以及美股中的资本品和材料板块大幅上涨,而此前领涨的AI/大型 科技主题则遭遇剧烈波动。高盛认为这场周期性轮动还有继续的空间。 经济数据依然坚挺:市场低估了增长前景 增长数据继续支撑周期性资产的表现。美国ISM指数在过去几个月持续上升,数据意外指数转为正值, 劳动力市场也在企稳。 从全球来看,1月发达市场制造业PMI达到过去一年的最高水平,新兴市场制造业PMI也环比上升。 高盛数据显示,市场对美国经济增长的定价仍低于其2.5%的全年 ...
