澤倫斯基呼籲限制俄國軍武產能 爭取歐洲全面參與和平談判
圖/示意圖商傳媒|林昭衡/綜合外電報導烏克蘭總統弗拉基米爾·澤倫斯基(Volodymyr Zelenskyy)近日呼籲國際夥伴,應限制俄羅斯的武器生產,他認為這是促使莫斯科走向和平的重要途徑。同時,澤倫斯基也強調,歐洲應在未來結束俄烏戰爭的談判中,扮演更直接、更平等的角色。 澤倫斯基在公開聲明中指出,減少俄羅斯的軍事能力,是迫使其參與和平進程的最佳方法之一。他呼籲所有夥伴,應共同努力限制俄羅斯生產用於戰爭的武器,削弱其持續作戰的能力。此舉被視為對俄羅斯施加壓力的重要戰略。 在和平談判方面,目前由美國主導的斡旋工作正在進行。美國總統川普(Donald Trump)的特使已介入,並將一份包含能源、海上及關鍵基礎設施停火的提案轉交給俄羅斯總統普丁(Vladimir Putin)。俄方此前表示對這些特定議題缺乏回應的權限。澤倫斯基目前正在愛爾蘭都柏林進行雙邊與多邊會議,預計今日將與美國特使史蒂夫·威特科夫(Witkoff)及賈裡德·庫什納(Kushner)會面,並期待獲得俄方對停火提案的回應。不過,據《BBC》報導,此前的俄烏談判在後戰安全框架上仍未有突破,尤其在頓內次克州(Donetsk)的領土問題上,雙方立場僵持不下,凸顯和平談判的複雜性。 澤倫斯基明確表示,烏克蘭期望歐洲能在未來的談判中,作為平等參與者,而非僅僅在會場旁觀。這意味著烏克蘭希望歐洲國家,例如義大利等,能更積極地參與到結束衝突的外交努力中。雖然義大利正考慮暫停向烏克蘭提供「Aster」防空飛彈,以補充自身庫存,但義大利總理焦爾吉婭·梅洛尼(Giorgia Meloni)強調,支持烏克蘭是實現和平的必要條件,義大利仍計畫提供發電機等設備,協助烏克蘭修復受損的能源基礎設施。此外,歐盟執委會(European Commission)也持續推動「EU-Ukraine Drone Alliance」,旨在加強歐洲與烏克蘭的國防安全,加速下一代無人機系統的開發與生產,顯示歐洲在軍事合作與產業鏈強化上扮演的重要角色。 參考來源 Commission hosts the 2nd Board Meeting of the EU-Ukraine Dro…(Defence Industry and Space) Italy may suspend the supply of missiles for air defense sys…(Ua.news) Russia loses ground as Europe's 4th-largest economy doubles…(Business Insider Africa) Russia-Ukraine talks turn to post-war security but end witho…(BBC) Zelenskyy Urges Partners to Restrict Russian Arms Production…(Freedom) U.S. representatives will deliver a ceasefire proposal to Pu…(Ukrainian National News (UNN))

全球旅遊市場逆勢成長 戰火油價夾擊下消費將創新高
圖/示意圖商傳媒|葉安庭/綜合外電報導儘管面臨地緣衝突與燃料成本上漲的雙重考驗,全球旅遊市場預計在2026年將創下歷史新高。根據World Travel Market發布的全球報告預測,今年全球旅客的總支出將大幅成長9%,達到7.8兆美元。 推動這波成長的關鍵因素之一,是消費者日益重視「體驗勝於物質」。Oxford Economics研究主管Sean Morgan指出,當前消費者越來越傾向將資源投入於創造回憶而非購買實體商品,這種「體驗經濟」的興起成為推動旅遊產業蓬勃發展的強大動力。 此外,開發中經濟體可支配所得的增加,也為全球旅遊市場注入新血。預計在未來六年內,印度與中國將合計為全球旅遊市場增加2,400萬個有能力出國旅行的家庭。Sean Morgan表示,這將使全球潛在旅客群體持續擴大,進而支持產業的整體成長。 在旅遊模式上,今年的境內旅遊(在自己區域內旅行)增加了3%。然而,由於機票價格上揚與安全疑慮,跨區域及長途旅行的需求則相對下降了3%。 值得關注的是,奢華旅遊市場正展現強勁成長勢頭,特別是非洲地區表現突出。非洲旅遊與觀光協會(African Travel and Tourism Association)主席Taqi Moledina表示,超奢華旅遊是目前成長最快的市場區塊,旅客數量與支出均成長超過10%至15%,顯示消費者對於獨特且深度體驗的旅程有著高度渴望。 然而,地緣衝突仍對部分地區造成顯著衝擊。2026年,受伊朗戰爭的影響,中東地區的國際旅遊市場遭遇重創,國際旅客入境數驟降40%。儘管如此,分析師仍樂觀預期,中東的旅遊市場有望在2027年迎來強勁反彈。

11 drills in 60 days: is India’s navy stretched too thin?
In the space of just two months, India’s navy has held joint exercises off the coasts of Britain, France, South Africa, Oman, the Philippines, South Korea, Japan and Russia’s far east. Such a run of exercises signals a bid for a larger maritime role on the world stage, analysts say. Yet it also raises questions about whether a navy currently short on submarines and struggling to expand can support such global ambitions while also guarding India’s home waters. Since mid-September, over a span of...

After two decades in which Chinese engagement was primarily associated with infrastructure construction, resource extraction and commodity trade, a new phase is emerging. Chinese companies are increasingly establishing manufacturing operations on the continent, bringing capital, technology, production expertise and employment. East Africa, particularly Kenya and Tanzania, is becoming a principal...

China is making it easier for African countries to pay for Chinese-led infrastructure projects in yuan, but weak banking rules, high debt levels and historical dependence on the US dollar and euro continue to limit broader adoption of the currency, an Egypt-based political scientist said in an analysis released on Monday.

美國非農就業報告報喜 美元走揚強化升息預期
圖/示意圖商傳媒|吳承岳/台北報導上週五,美國勞動統計局公布的 10 月非農就業報告(指美國每月非農業部門的就業人數變動,是衡量勞動市場健康狀況的重要指標)表現強勁,新增就業人數達 16.5 萬,大幅超出市場預期,同時失業率降至 4.1%。此外,8 月和 9 月的就業數據合計上修 8.4 萬人,顯示美國勞動市場仍相當穩健。 這份亮眼的數據立即提振了美元匯率,美元指數(DXY)盤中回升至 102 以上,收復了此前因中期選舉結果所造成的跌幅。強勁的就業數據也強化了市場對美國聯準會(Federal Reserve,簡稱 Fed,是美國的中央銀行,負責制定貨幣政策來影響經濟)升息的預期。根據《Interest.co.nz》報導,貨幣市場顯示,聯準會 12 月升息的可能性已逼近 80%。受此影響,短期公債殖利率走高,其中 2 年期美國公債殖利率上揚約 4 個基點至 4.51%,10 年期公債殖利率也升至 4.86%。 國際金融機構對此反應不一。滙豐(HSBC)分析指出,雖然中期選舉中民主黨的強勁表現可能在短期內對美元構成壓力,但該行仍維持對美元未來數月溫和走強的預期。滙豐認為,選舉結果對行政部門立法議程的影響,可能促使投資者重新評估美國經濟表現卓越的假設,但美元的短期下跌不應被視為長期趨勢的逆轉。 其他貨幣方面,由於美元走強,歐元空頭部位達到 11 年來新高。加拿大央行(Bank of Canada)升息預期降低,導致加幣兌美元走軟。澳幣和紐西蘭元(NZD)等商品貨幣也因避險情緒和美元強勢而承壓。根據《FOREX.com》報導,紐西蘭元兌美元更創下年度新低。 資金流向也反映了市場對美元資產的青睞。外國投資者轉向買入美元計價債券,推動美國公債殖利率上揚,顯示在全球經濟不確定性下,美元資產仍被視為避險選項。摩根大通(JPMorgan)和 ING 等銀行分析師提醒,儘管就業數據強勁,但近期美國科技股的拋售潮,是否會對未來投資和消費產生抑制作用,進而影響聯準會未來的政策路徑,仍是市場關注的焦點。市場將密切關注美國的通膨數據,以判斷聯準會下一步的貨幣政策走向。 參考來源 3 Stocks Investors Watch When Demand For U.S. Dollar Safety…(Yahoo Finance) US Dollar Faces Short-Term Election Pressure, but HSBC Retai…(Yahoo Finance) HSBC Says Strong Democratic Midterm Performance Could Pressu…(Yahoo Finance) Extreme Euro Shorts Meet Renewed US Dollar Strength | COT Re…(FOREXcom) The US dollar firmed broadly and the NZD hit a fresh low(Interest.co.nz) US Dollar Strengthens After Jobs Report Beats Major Bank For…(Exchange Rates UK) Foreign Investors Pivot Into US Dollar Bonds, Yields Ease(MarketForces Africa)


比特幣漲破7.5萬美元 市場買入信心卻顯不足
圖/示意圖商傳媒|吳承岳/台北報導比特幣(Bitcoin)近期價格微幅上漲,盤中曾達 75,600 美元,然而加密貨幣市場的買入信心(投資人對市場未來走勢的樂觀程度與進場意願)卻顯得低迷。儘管價格有所攀升,投資者仍對市場潛在風險抱持謹慎態度,導致購買力道不足。 根據《MarketForces Africa》報導,過去 24 小時內,比特幣交易量下跌約 9%,總交易額約 90 億美元。近期比特幣價格下跌,觸發了超過 10 億美元的加密貨幣衍生性商品強制清算,其中大部分是多頭部位。在幣安(Binance)、Bybit 及 OKX 等主要交易所,清算總額達 7.366 億美元,多頭部位佔約 6.621 億美元,空頭部位僅 7,450 萬美元。 此外,美國現貨比特幣 ETF 遭遇自六月以來最差的一週,淨流出約 12.8 億美元,總持倉量降至 959 億美元。反映市場情緒的「恐懼與貪婪指數」目前維持在 31 點的「恐懼」區間,顯示市場對比特幣前景普遍感到不安。 對於比特幣的未來走勢,市場看法兩極。矽谷投資者傑森·卡拉卡尼斯(Jason Calacanis)預測,比特幣將在未來 12 個月內跌至 57,000 美元,他認為人工智慧(AI)領域的新機會比加密貨幣更具吸引力,並稱比特幣區塊鏈為「停滯的網路」。然而,Coinbase 執行長布萊恩·阿姆斯壯(Brian Armstrong)則在今年夏季將 60,000 美元視為比特幣的底部。 《The Motley Fool》文章指出,比特幣向來以四年為一個週期,經歷榮枯,但每次都強勢反彈。儘管比特幣曾在 2022 年暴跌 64%,卻在 2023 年和 2024 年皆以三位數報酬率回升,並於 2025 年達到 126,000 美元的歷史新高。目前,比特幣相較 2025 年十月的高點已下跌 38%。許多分析師認為,比特幣正處於「累積階段」,預示著牛市即將來臨,但市場的觀望氣氛仍舊濃厚。 【提醒您】 加密資產價格波動劇烈,本文僅供參考,不構成投資建議

Africa is home to ancient cities, rock art and striking natural landscapes, yet its sites are sorely under-represented on Unesco’s World Heritage List. According to data released by the UN body, of the 1,273 sites on the list – which are formally protected under the World Heritage Convention treaty – just 115 are in Africa. But as Beijing seeks closer cultural ties with the continent, it is offering help to change this through funding, guidance on how to navigate the nomination process and...

The continent is a major international supplier of key minerals such as copper, cobalt and iron ore, and countries such as the Democratic Republic of Congo, Guinea and Zimbabwe have previously introduced mineral export bans or restrictions to...

Smith was banned for a year and sacked as skipper, Warner...
