  • SpaceX Experiences First Drop Below IPO Price Since Going Public

    On July 16, according to CCTV Finance, SpaceX, the American aerospace manufacturer and space transport services company, has been publicly traded for over a month. Recently, the company's stock price has shown significant volatility. During intraday trading on the 15th, it briefly fell below the IPO price of $135 per share, marking the first time it has dropped below its initial offering price. On the 15th, SpaceX's stock price dipped to $132.15 per share, below the $135 IPO price, before closing at $135.27, down 0.6% from the previous trading day, marking the fourth consecutive day of decline and nearly erasing all gains since its IPO. Analysts point out that the market is becoming cautious about the costs and returns of infrastructure in the artificial intelligence sector, raising doubts about the prospects of SpaceX's xAI business. Additionally, the upcoming end of the lock-up period for shareholders adds further downward pressure. Data shows that since its IPO on June 12, SpaceX's stock price had previously peaked at $225.64.

  • Structural Rift Emerging in US-Israel Alliance

    Former Israeli Ambassador to the US, Alon Pinkas, stated that the remarks made by Vice President JD Vance criticizing Israel for undermining US-Iran negotiations were "unprecedented in severity." Pinkas remarked, "Never before has a sitting US Vice President so openly accused Israel of launching a campaign aimed at weakening US policy. While there have been disagreements and frictions in the past, the current Vice President's intense, clear, and direct opposition to Israel's lobbying pressure against the US is indeed unprecedented... It is quite shocking." Pinkas pointed out that this incident indicates a lack of alignment between the positions of the US and Israel. He added that the increasing friction among allies regarding the war in Iran is extremely concerning from Israel's perspective and reflects a "structural shift" in the relationship between the two countries. Equally unprecedented is the fact that half of the Democratic Party members voted to terminate aid to Israel. If you had asked anyone in Washington two years ago, they would have asserted it was impossible—but this voting outcome clearly reflects a significant shift within the Democratic Party. Among the 212 Democratic members of the House, 103 voted in favor of canceling the annual $3.3 billion aid to Israel. Only one Republican joined the Democrats in supporting the vote. Therefore, the real focus is on how Trump will respond. It is believed he spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu last week, suggesting it was time for the Israeli military to withdraw from Lebanon and Syria. However, the Israeli Defense Minister publicly stated a refusal to withdraw. How will the White House respond to this near-open defiance of the President's wishes? The answer may soon be revealed.

  • KimiK 3 from Dark Side of the Moon Now Available for Users

    On July 16, it was reported that the official website of Dark Side of the Moon has updated with the new model KIMIK3. After logging in, users can see two versions: K3·Max and K3 Cluster·Max. The official announcement is expected to be made soon.
