In a recent study, scientists from Johns Hopkins University in the United States have developed a new artificial intelligence (AI) model called "Differential Mapping Operator Learning" (DIMON), which can solve complex partial differential equations on personal computers, thousands of times faster than before, and is expected to "show its talents" in the fields of aerospace, automobiles and medicine.

Bank for International Settlements: The biggest threat to global stability is the debt carnival of governments. The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) said that the biggest threat to world economic stability is the government's borrowing habits, and the recent changes in market sentiment should be vigilant. Claudio Borio, a senior official of BIS, said in his quarterly report that priority should be given to repairing public finances before the panic of bond investors spreads. "The global financial outlook is still very worrying," said the retiring head of the BIS monetary and economic department. "The trajectory of government debt poses the most serious threat to macroeconomic and financial stability."The U.S. Treasury Department announced that it would allocate 20 billion U.S. dollars in loans to Ukraine.

Many listed companies have started the "A+H" mode, and the policy warm wind is blowing frequently. More and more A-share companies are planning to issue H shares and start the "A+H" dual-capital operation platform mode. According to incomplete statistics, at least seven A-share companies have disclosed plans to issue H-shares this year. Since December alone, Hengrui Pharma, Junsheng Electronics and other listed companies have announced plans to go public in Hong Kong. Previously, Midea Group, SF Holdings and other leading A-share companies have successfully listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Zhang Shujian, head and managing director of the capital market department of Futeng Capital, believes that the "A+H" model increases the flexibility of listing financing by building a platform for listing in two places, and at the same time introduces international long-term investors, which is conducive to optimizing the shareholder structure. In addition, since the beginning of this year, the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the Exchange have issued relevant policies to support A-share companies to go public in Hong Kong, which has driven this round of "A+H" craze.
