Then, seemingly out of nowhere, rates have dived lower, with the 10-year Treasury trading at a 1.32% yield, down from near 1.70% at the end of May. The benchmark 30-year Treasury bond is back at the 1.94% level. These are the lowest interest rate levels since last winter.</p>\n<p>For income investors, this is another setback in what has become over a ten-year problem. While rates certainly could rise again, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> thing seems certain: the Federal Reserve will not raise rates until it is positive the economy is back at full strength.

In March 2008, it spun off its international cigarette business to shareholders.

Then, seemingly out of nowhere, rates have dived lower, with the 10-year Treasury trading at a 1.32% yield, down from near 1.70% at the end of May. The benchmark 30-year Treasury bond is back at the 1.94% level. These are the lowest interest rate levels since last winter.\nFor income investors, this is another setback in what has become over a ten-year problem. While rates certainly could rise again, one thing seems certain: the Federal Reserve will not raise rates until it is positive the economy is back at full strength. The only move the Fed looks poised to make in the near term is the beginning of the tapering of the $120 billion per month purchase of Treasury and mortgage debt.\nWe screened the BofA Securities research universe looking for blue chip stocks rated Buy that paid at least a 4% dividend. We found five that are very appealing now to growth and income investors. While all are rated Buy, it is important to remember that no single analyst report should be used as a sole basis for any buying or selling decision.\nAltria\nThis maker of tobacco products offers value investors a great entry point now and was hit recently as cigarette sales have slowed. Altria Group Inc. (NYSE: MO) is the parent company of Philip Morris USA (cigarettes), UST (smokeless), John Middleton (cigars), Ste. Michelle Wine Estates and Philip Morris Capital. PMUSA enjoys a 51% share of the U.S. cigarette market, led by its top cigarette brand Marlboro.\nAltria also owns over 10% of Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world’s largest brewer. In March 2008, it spun off its international cigarette business to shareholders. In December 2018, the company acquired 35% of Juul Labs, and it has purchased a 45% stake in cannabis company Cronus for $1.8 billion.\nBofA Securities is very favorable toward the company’s plans for the future:\n\n Management presented at CAGNY (Consumer Analyst Group of New York) where it discussed a new corporate focus on ESG, additional details on its IQOS plans and its “Moving beyond smoking” 10-yr plan. Smokeables (cigarettes/cigars) will remain an important part of its strategy, providing funding behind its long-term growth and shareholder returns. Over the last 5-yrs, smokeable and other comprehensive income grew at a 5.5% compounded annual growth rate despite volume declines.\n\nShareholders receive a 7.35% dividend. The analyst has a $58 target price on the shares, while the consensus target is lower at $53.89. Altria stock closed on Wednesday at $46.79 per share.\nChevron\nThis energy giant is a solid way for investors who are more conservative to be positioned in the sector. Chevron Corp. (NYSE: CVX) is a U.S.-based integrated oil and gas company, with worldwide operations in exploration and production, refining and marketing, transportation and petrochemicals. The company sports a sizable dividend and has a solid place in the sector when it comes to natural gas and liquefied natural gas.\nWith the strongest financial base of the majors, coupled with an attractive relative asset base, many on Wall Street feel that Chevron offers the most straightforwardly positive risk/reward. Although current conditions do not warrant a large focus on production growth, Chevron possesses numerous medium-term drivers (Noble integration, Permian, TCO/WPMP expansion, Gulf of Mexico exploration, Vaca Muerta, and so on) that should support production levels in the coming years.\nIBM\nThis old-school tech giant still offers investors a very solid entry point. International Business Machines Corp. (NYSE: IBM) is a leading provider of enterprise solutions, offering a broad portfolio of information technology (IT) hardware, business and IT services, and a full suite of software solutions.\nThe company integrates its hardware products with its software and services offerings in order to provide high-value solutions. Analysts have cited the company’s potential in the public cloud as a reason for their positive outlook going forward.\nCEO Ginni Rommety, who had been in the position since 2012, stepped down in January, and the stock market greeted the news in a very positive manner. Arvind Krishna, who has led the company’s cloud computing business, became the new chief executive. Rometty will remain as executive board chair until the end of the year.\nHolders of IBM stock receive a 4.69% dividend. The $175 BofA Securities price target is well above the $144.14 consensus figure. The shares closed at $139.82 on Wednesday.\nShareholders receive a 5.21% dividend, which analysts feel comfortable will remain at current levels. The BofA Securities price target is $125, which compares to a $122.48 consensus target and the last Chevron stock trade on Wednesday at $102.93 a share.\nLyondellBasell\nThis top chemical company with a sterling balance sheet is another solid play for conservative investors. LyondellBasell Industries N.V. (NYSE: LYB) manufactures chemicals and polymers, refines crude oil, produces gasoline blending components and develops and licenses technologies for production of polymers.\nOver half of earnings are generated in the company’s Olefins and Polyolefins Americas segment, where costs are linked to the price of cheap natural gas in the United States, while selling prices are correlated with the price of oil. The company has pursued a strategy of low-cost, high return on invested capital debottlenecks coupled with cash returns to shareholders.\nNote that debottlenecking is the process of identifying specific areas or equipment in oil and gas facilities that limit the flow of product (known as bottlenecks) and optimizing them so that overall capacity in the plant can be increased.\nThe company offers a 4.50% dividend. BofA Securities has set a $117 price target. The consensus target is $118.41, and LyondellBasell stock ended Wednesday at $100.40 a share.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":436,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":154349399,"gmtCreate":1625484000511,"gmtModify":1631891133870,"author":{"id":"3576663902413656","authorId":"3576663902413656","name":"Mak2888","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcb071d6ae45ee928ea9f58874ea35dc","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576663902413656","authorIdStr":"3576663902413656"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Close&nbsp;","listText":"Close&nbsp;","text":"Close","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/154349399","repostId":"1109703914","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":268,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":154354146,"gmtCreate":1625483826485,"gmtModify":1631891133873,"author":{"id":"3576663902413656","authorId":"3576663902413656","name":"Mak2888","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcb071d6ae45ee928ea9f58874ea35dc","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576663902413656","authorIdStr":"3576663902413656"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":8,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/154354146","repostId":"2148980793","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2148980793","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1625482920,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2148980793?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-07-05 19:02","market":"us","language":"en","title":"What to expect if 'peak everything' already has happened and markets feel the force of gravity again","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2148980793","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"NASA ranks the lack of gravity as a top 5 risk of human space travel.\nBut gravity also has emerged a","content":"<p>NASA ranks the lack of gravity as a top 5 risk of human space travel.</p>\n<p>But gravity also has emerged as a concern for soaring U.S. stocks, bond prices and other financial assets as the force of extreme fiscal stimulus, meant to get the U.S. economy to the other side of the pandemic, begins to ease up.</p>\n<p>After a stunning first-half, the rest of 2021 could be poised for a slower pace of U.S. economic expansion and for the rate of inflation to come back down to earth.</p>\n<p>A bit more grounding wouldn't entirely be a bad thing for financial markets either, according to investors and analysts who spoke with MarketWatch about what to expect in the year's second half, as the dust settles with the American economy recovering and trillions of dollars worth of Washington fiscal stimulus fading into the background.</p>\n<p>\"It is very possible that we have seen peak everything,\" said Giorgio Caputo, head of the multi-asset team at J O Hambro Capital Management. \"But that doesn't mean we can't have very solid continued growth in the recovery.\"</p>\n<p>Like the pace of \"revenge travel growth forecast for GDP in the second-quarter.</p>\n<p>\"In terms of GPD numbers, it will be hard to have year-over-year growth rates that rival what the second quarter of 2021 is expected to look like, relative to the second-quarter of 2020, when the whole world was shut down,\" Caputo said.</p>\n<p>\"But you've still got monetary policy that's incredibly accommodative, and will be for a long time.\"</p>\n<p>A lofty perch</p>\n<p>The major U.S. stock indexes finished the first week of the third quarter at all-time highs , after the S&amp;P 500 booked the best five quarters of percentage gains since the second-quarter of 1936, according to Dow Jones Market Data.</p>\n<p>Supply of U.S. corporate bonds <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LQD\">$(LQD)$</a> -- and even demand in the sleepy municipal-bond market of the post-2008 financial crisis era.</p>\n<p>Issuance of U.S. investment-grade corporate bonds hit $860 billion in the year's first half, the second-highest tally ever, after last year's $1.2 trillion boom, according to BofA Global analysts.</p>\n<p>\"Companies still carry sizable cash war chests accumulated last year,\" the BofA team wrote, in a weekly note. \"On the other hand demand creates supply, and the combination of historically low yields and spreads at post-crisis tights may attract opportunistic issuance.\"</p>\n<p>It isn't only U.S. companies sitting on extra pandemic cash.

In Europe, Airbus shares ticked 0.2% higher at mid-session.</p>\n<p><b>CONVERSION RIGHTS</b></p>\n<p>Combined with its current order book, United will receive 500 new, narrowbody aircraft including 40 in 2022 and 138 in 2023. It has flexibility on the remaining deliveries between 2024 and 2026 and the option to convert some of the MAX 10 orders to other variants, a spokesperson said.</p>\n<p>The new Boeing and Airbus jets will include new interiors as part of a sweeping cabin overhaul.</p>\n<p>United, which unlike major rivals did not retire aircraft during the pandemic despite having one of the oldest U.S. fleets, said it plans to fly the first MAX 8 with the new interior this summer and the MAX 10 and A321neo in early 2023.</p>\n<p>The order includes 25 737 MAX \"white tails\", or orders canceled by other buyers during a lengthy safety grounding.</p>\n<p>The airline, which received $10.5 billion in government aid during the pandemic, devoted a large part of its release to a pledge to create 25,000 unionized jobs as part of the purchase.</p>\n<p>With the transaction, United's use of 50-seat jets will fall to less than 10% of its domestic departures versus about one third currently, Nocella said.</p>\n<p>The order also serves to replace United's aging Boeing 757-200 fleet, though the airline has not yet decided on a replacement for its 757-300s, he told reporters.</p>\n<p>Boeing, which was required by regulators to add MAX simulator training for pilots of earlier 737 models after software problems contributed to fatal MAX crashes, said the United deal includes training simulator data packages.</p>\n<p>Airbus said a significant number of the newly-ordered A321neo jets would be assembled at its plant in Mobile, Alabama.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Then, seemingly out of nowhere, rates have dived lower, with the 10-year Treasury trading at a 1.32% yield, down from near 1.70% at the end of May. The benchmark 30-year Treasury bond is back at the 1.94% level. These are the lowest interest rate levels since last winter.</p>\n<p>For income investors, this is another setback in what has become over a ten-year problem. While rates certainly could rise again, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> thing seems certain: the Federal Reserve will not raise rates until it is positive the economy is back at full strength. The only move the Fed looks poised to make in the near term is the beginning of the tapering of the $120 billion per month purchase of Treasury and mortgage debt.</p>\n<p>We screened the BofA Securities research universe looking for blue chip stocks rated Buy that paid at least a 4% dividend.

In March 2008, it spun off its international cigarette business to shareholders. In December 2018, the company acquired 35% of Juul Labs, and it has purchased a 45% stake in cannabis company Cronus for $1.8 billion.</p>\n<p>BofA Securities is very favorable toward the company’s plans for the future:</p>\n<blockquote>\n Management presented at CAGNY (Consumer Analyst Group of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/NWY\">New York</a>) where it discussed a new corporate focus on ESG, additional details on its IQOS plans and its “Moving beyond smoking” 10-yr plan.

Then, seemingly out of nowhere, rates have dived lower, with the 10-year Treasury trading at a 1.32% yield, down from near 1.70% at the end of May. The benchmark 30-year Treasury bond is back at the 1.94% level. These are the lowest interest rate levels since last winter.\nFor income investors, this is another setback in what has become over a ten-year problem. While rates certainly could rise again, one thing seems certain: the Federal Reserve will not raise rates until it is positive the economy is back at full strength. The only move the Fed looks poised to make in the near term is the beginning of the tapering of the $120 billion per month purchase of Treasury and mortgage debt.\nWe screened the BofA Securities research universe looking for blue chip stocks rated Buy that paid at least a 4% dividend. We found five that are very appealing now to growth and income investors. While all are rated Buy, it is important to remember that no single analyst report should be used as a sole basis for any buying or selling decision.\nAltria\nThis maker of tobacco products offers value investors a great entry point now and was hit recently as cigarette sales have slowed. Altria Group Inc. (NYSE: MO) is the parent company of Philip Morris USA (cigarettes), UST (smokeless), John Middleton (cigars), Ste. Michelle Wine Estates and Philip Morris Capital. PMUSA enjoys a 51% share of the U.S. cigarette market, led by its top cigarette brand Marlboro.\nAltria also owns over 10% of Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world’s largest brewer. In March 2008, it spun off its international cigarette business to shareholders. In December 2018, the company acquired 35% of Juul Labs, and it has purchased a 45% stake in cannabis company Cronus for $1.8 billion.\nBofA Securities is very favorable toward the company’s plans for the future:\n\n Management presented at CAGNY (Consumer Analyst Group of New York) where it discussed a new corporate focus on ESG, additional details on its IQOS plans and its “Moving beyond smoking” 10-yr plan. Smokeables (cigarettes/cigars) will remain an important part of its strategy, providing funding behind its long-term growth and shareholder returns. Over the last 5-yrs, smokeable and other comprehensive income grew at a 5.5% compounded annual growth rate despite volume declines.\n\nShareholders receive a 7.35% dividend.

The Australian dollar dipped in early trading as Sydney’s worsening virus cases threaten to lengthen a lockdown. Futures&nbsp;rose in Japan, Australia and Hong Kong. Major U.S. benchmarks ended last week at all-time highs as investors continued to bet that global growth remains on track despite new Covid-19 variants.

Plans for a travel bubble between Australia and Singapore have beenpushed backto the end of 2021.&nbsp;In France,&nbsp;a key ally of President Emmanuel Macron said the nation&nbsp;must“live with the virus”rather than count on a new lockdown to contain the spread of a new variant of Covid-19.</p>\n<p>And finally, here’s what Tracy’s&nbsp;interested in today</p>\n<p>\"The bottom line is that the U.S. economy is booming, but this is now a known known and asset markets reflect it,\" says Morgan Stanley Strategist Michael Wilson. \"What isn’t so clear anymore is at what price this growth will accrue.\"</p>\n<p>A key variable in that “price”&nbsp;is&nbsp;labor costs and one of the big questions facing markets now is the degree to which Covid has sparked a structural shift towards tighter labor markets and higher wages. It wouldn't be the first time that a major pandemic&nbsp;tilted the balance of power between workers and capital (what happened to Europe's economy after the Black Death beingthe famous exampleof this dynamic).</p>\n<p>All of this is to say, it's worth watching what's happening to the labor market in intense detail. To that end, on the new Odd Lots episode, we speak with Kurt Alexander, the CFO of Omni Hotels &amp; Resorts, which operates more than 50 hotels in the U.S. He describes the difficulty in hiring workers now and what he's doing to try to attract them. Those efforts include a range of incentives for potential new employees, from working shorter and more flexible shifts to getting a set of fancy knives if you're a new culinary worker. Alexander even mentioned that they're thinking of ways to \"help people with their student loans if they come work for us.\"</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c56d1584d4a184d5d782101ffcb0e840\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"450\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Another big question&nbsp;is the degree to which incentives aimed at attracting workers back into the labor force —&nbsp;including higher wages —&nbsp;actually stick around or whether they prove transitory like some other bottlenecks in the U.S. economy. Already there are signs that the worker shortage may be easing, with Alexander saying that in U.S. states that have ended the enhanced unemployment benefits started in the depths of the Covid crisis last year, Omni is seeing a big jump in job applications, although there&nbsp;\"remain challenges.\"</p>","source":"lsy1584095487587","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Five Things You Need to Know to Start Your Day</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nFive Things You Need to Know to Start Your Day\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-12 08:26 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2021-07-11/five-things-you-need-to-know-to-start-your-day?srnd=premium-asia><strong>Bloomberg</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>China’s slowing economic rebound sends a warning to the world.

Treasuries snapped an eight-session rally and the dollar dipped against major peers.\nSpace Success\nBillionaire Richard Branson’s long-awaited test flight to space, taken alongside five of his Virgin Galactic employees,bolsters the company’s planto debut tourism trips next year. The VSS Unity space plane detached from a carrier aircraft high over New Mexico and rocketed to a speed of Mach 3 on its way to an altitude more than 53 miles (86 kilometers) above the Earth. Virgin Galactic’s test flight demonstrated that such trips, once the stuff of science fiction, are becoming increasingly realistic.  Later this month Amazon.com Inc. founder Jeff Bezos plans to fly on a rocket made by Blue Origin, his space venture. Both companies envision businesses catering to wealthy tourists willing to pay top dollar for a short period of weightlessness and an unforgettable view of the Earth.\nTax Timeline\nU.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen began toput a timelineon when the Biden administration hopes Congress can take up two key portions of a global tax agreement endorsed Saturday by Group of 20 finance ministers in Venice. Speaking to the press on Sunday, Yellen declined, however, to signal whether she believes part of the plan will require a two-thirds vote in the Senate, an impossible hurdle unless Republicans come round to supporting the deal. She reiterated that she hoped Congress would approve the portion of the deal that would impose a global minimum tax rate on corporations of at least 15%.\nSelling Vaccines \nIndonesia’s state-owned pharmaceutical company PT Kimia Farma willstart selling vaccinesto the public on Monday as the country seeks to accelerate inoculations and achieve herd immunity by the end of the year. Meanwhile, Sydney’s lockdown, costing some A$1 billion a week, is “highly unlikely” to be lifted as scheduled next week as virus cases continue to rise, authorities said Sunday. Plans for a travel bubble between Australia and Singapore have beenpushed backto the end of 2021. In France, a key ally of President Emmanuel Macron said the nation must“live with the virus”rather than count on a new lockdown to contain the spread of a new variant of Covid-19.\nAnd finally, here’s what Tracy’s interested in today\n\"The bottom line is that the U.S. economy is booming, but this is now a known known and asset markets reflect it,\" says Morgan Stanley Strategist Michael Wilson. \"What isn’t so clear anymore is at what price this growth will accrue.\"\nA key variable in that “price” is labor costs and one of the big questions facing markets now is the degree to which Covid has sparked a structural shift towards tighter labor markets and higher wages. It wouldn't be the first time that a major pandemic tilted the balance of power between workers and capital (what happened to Europe's economy after the Black Death beingthe famous exampleof this dynamic).\nAll of this is to say, it's worth watching what's happening to the labor market in intense detail. To that end, on the new Odd Lots episode, we speak with Kurt Alexander, the CFO of Omni Hotels & Resorts, which operates more than 50 hotels in the U.S. He describes the difficulty in hiring workers now and what he's doing to try to attract them. Those efforts include a range of incentives for potential new employees, from working shorter and more flexible shifts to getting a set of fancy knives if you're a new culinary worker. Alexander even mentioned that they're thinking of ways to \"help people with their student loans if they come work for us.\"\nAnother big question is the degree to which incentives aimed at attracting workers back into the labor force — including higher wages — actually stick around or whether they prove transitory like some other bottlenecks in the U.S. economy. Already there are signs that the worker shortage may be easing, with Alexander saying that in U.S. states that have ended the enhanced unemployment benefits started in the depths of the Covid crisis last year, Omni is seeing a big jump in job applications, although there \"remain challenges.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":193,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":168237927,"gmtCreate":1623975930669,"gmtModify":1631891133883,"author":{"id":"3576663902413656","authorId":"3576663902413656","name":"Mak2888","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcb071d6ae45ee928ea9f58874ea35dc","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576663902413656","authorIdStr":"3576663902413656"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy","listText":"Buy","text":"Buy","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/168237927","repostId":"1107055650","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1107055650","pubTimestamp":1623975076,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1107055650?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-18 08:11","market":"fut","language":"en","title":"Gold Got Crushed After the Fed’s Big Surprise.

Once cleared, longer flights would become possible with a pair of pilots alternating rest breaks, instead of the three or four currently needed to maintain at least two in the cockpit.</p>\n<p>That promises savings for airlines, amid uncertainty over the post-pandemic economics of intercontinental flying. But it is likely to encounter resistance from pilots already hit by mass layoffs, and safety concerns about aircraft automation.</p>\n<p>Lufthansa has also worked on the single-pilot programme but currently has no plans to use it, a spokesman for the German carrier told Reuters.</p>\n<p>Cathay Pacific Airways confirmed its involvement but said no decision had been made on eventual deployment.</p>\n<p>\"While we are engaging with Airbus in the development of the concept of reduced crew operations, we have not committed in any way to being the launch customer,\" the Hong Kong carrier said.</p>\n<p>Commercial implementation would first require extensive testing, regulatory approval and pilot training with \"absolutely no compromise on safety\", Cathay said.</p>\n<p>\"The appropriateness and effectiveness of any such rollout as well as (the) overall cost-benefit analysis (will) ultimately depend on how the pandemic plays out.\"</p>\n<p>It added: \"Having said that, we will continue to engage with Airbus and to support development of the concept.\"</p>\n<p>Airbus has previously disclosed plans to add single-pilot capability to the A350, but the airlines' participation had not been reported. Work has resumed after the COVID-19 crisis paused the programme, Chief Test Pilot Christophe Cail said.</p>\n<p>\"We've proven over decades we can enhance safety by putting the latest technology in aircraft,\" Cail told Reuters, declining to identify project partners. \"As for any design evolution, we are working with airlines.\"</p>\n<p>VITAL SIGNS</p>\n<p>Safe deployment will require constant monitoring of the solo pilot's alertness and vital signs by on-board systems, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has said.</p>\n<p>If the flight encounters a problem or the pilot flying is incapacitated, the resting copilot can be summoned within minutes. Both remain in the cockpit for take-off and landing.</p>\n<p>\"Typically on long-haul flights when you're at cruise altitude there's very little happening in the cockpit,\" EASA chief Patrick Ky told a German press briefing in January.</p>\n<p>\"It makes sense to say OK, instead of having two in the cockpit, we can have one in the cockpit, the other one taking a rest, provided we're implementing technical solutions which make sure that if the single one falls asleep or has any problem, there won't be any unsafe conditions.\"</p>\n<p>Pilot groups have voiced alarm.</p>\n<p>\"We struggle to understand the rationale,\" said Otjan de Bruijn, head of the European Cockpit Association representing EU pilots.</p>\n<p>Invoking the 737 MAX crisis, which exposed Boeing's inappropriate links to U.S. regulators, De Bruijn said the programme's cost-cutting approach \"could lead to higher risks\".</p>\n<p>Single-pilot operations, currently limited to planes with up to nine passengers, would need backing from U.N. aviation body ICAO and countries whose airspace they cross. China's support is key to any Cathay deployment.</p>\n<p>EASA plans consultations this year and certification work in 2022, while acknowledging \"significant risk\" to the 2025 launch date, a spokesman said.</p>\n<p>In a closed-door industry briefing this year, the agency suggested reduced-crew flights would begin with a single operator, according to notes of the meeting reviewed by Reuters.</p>\n<p>EMERGENCY DESCENT</p>\n<p>Airbus has designed an A350 autopilot upgrade and flight warning system changes to help a lone pilot manage failures, sources close to the project said.</p>\n<p>The mid-sized plane is suitable because of its \"emergency descent\" feature that quickly reduces altitude without pilot input in the event of cabin depressurisation.</p>\n<p>Proponents suggest single-pilot operations may be accepted by a flying public used to crew leaving the cockpit for bathroom breaks. They also point to higher error rates from human pilots than automated systems.</p>\n<p>Both arguments miss the point, according to a source close to Lufthansa - who said the airline's executives were advised last year that the programme could not meet safety goals.</p>\n<p>Flying solo for hours is a \"completely different story\", the source said, citing the 2009 AF447 disaster as an example of malfunctions occurring in cruise. The Air France A330's copilots lost control after its speed sensors failed over the Atlantic, while the captain was resting.</p>\n<p>\"Airbus would have had to make sure every situation can be handled autonomously without any pilot input for 15 minutes,\" the source said. \"And that couldn't be guaranteed.\"</p>\n<p>Lufthansa has not withdrawn from Project Connect and remains involved as an adviser, its spokesman said.</p>\n<p>While the airline has no plans to deploy single-pilot operations, he added, \"the suggestion that Lufthansa was an essential part of the project and then pulled back is not true.\"</p>\n<p>Single-pilot capability would add an A350 sales argument, experts say, and rival Boeing lacks an equivalent model with sufficient automation.</p>\n<p>Filippo Tomasello, a former EASA official, said the payroll and accommodation savings for long-haul crew would not be lost on airlines.</p>\n<p>\"COVID may end up accelerating this evolution because it's putting tremendous economic pressure on aviation,\" Tomasello predicted.</p>\n<p>\"If EASA certifies this solution, airlines will use it.\"</p>","source":"lsy1612507957220","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

Once cleared, longer flights would become possible with a pair of pilots alternating rest breaks, instead of the three or four currently needed to maintain at least two in the cockpit.\nThat promises savings for airlines, amid uncertainty over the post-pandemic economics of intercontinental flying. But it is likely to encounter resistance from pilots already hit by mass layoffs, and safety concerns about aircraft automation.\nLufthansa has also worked on the single-pilot programme but currently has no plans to use it, a spokesman for the German carrier told Reuters.\nCathay Pacific Airways confirmed its involvement but said no decision had been made on eventual deployment.\n\"While we are engaging with Airbus in the development of the concept of reduced crew operations, we have not committed in any way to being the launch customer,\" the Hong Kong carrier said.\nCommercial implementation would first require extensive testing, regulatory approval and pilot training with \"absolutely no compromise on safety\", Cathay said.\n\"The appropriateness and effectiveness of any such rollout as well as (the) overall cost-benefit analysis (will) ultimately depend on how the pandemic plays out.\"\nIt added: \"Having said that, we will continue to engage with Airbus and to support development of the concept.\"\nAirbus has previously disclosed plans to add single-pilot capability to the A350, but the airlines' participation had not been reported. Work has resumed after the COVID-19 crisis paused the programme, Chief Test Pilot Christophe Cail said.\n\"We've proven over decades we can enhance safety by putting the latest technology in aircraft,\" Cail told Reuters, declining to identify project partners. \"As for any design evolution, we are working with airlines.\"\nVITAL SIGNS\nSafe deployment will require constant monitoring of the solo pilot's alertness and vital signs by on-board systems, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has said.\nIf the flight encounters a problem or the pilot flying is incapacitated, the resting copilot can be summoned within minutes. Both remain in the cockpit for take-off and landing.\n\"Typically on long-haul flights when you're at cruise altitude there's very little happening in the cockpit,\" EASA chief Patrick Ky told a German press briefing in January.\n\"It makes sense to say OK, instead of having two in the cockpit, we can have one in the cockpit, the other one taking a rest, provided we're implementing technical solutions which make sure that if the single one falls asleep or has any problem, there won't be any unsafe conditions.\"\nPilot groups have voiced alarm.\n\"We struggle to understand the rationale,\" said Otjan de Bruijn, head of the European Cockpit Association representing EU pilots.\nInvoking the 737 MAX crisis, which exposed Boeing's inappropriate links to U.S. regulators, De Bruijn said the programme's cost-cutting approach \"could lead to higher risks\".\nSingle-pilot operations, currently limited to planes with up to nine passengers, would need backing from U.N. aviation body ICAO and countries whose airspace they cross. China's support is key to any Cathay deployment.\nEASA plans consultations this year and certification work in 2022, while acknowledging \"significant risk\" to the 2025 launch date, a spokesman said.\nIn a closed-door industry briefing this year, the agency suggested reduced-crew flights would begin with a single operator, according to notes of the meeting reviewed by Reuters.\nEMERGENCY DESCENT\nAirbus has designed an A350 autopilot upgrade and flight warning system changes to help a lone pilot manage failures, sources close to the project said.\nThe mid-sized plane is suitable because of its \"emergency descent\" feature that quickly reduces altitude without pilot input in the event of cabin depressurisation.\nProponents suggest single-pilot operations may be accepted by a flying public used to crew leaving the cockpit for bathroom breaks. They also point to higher error rates from human pilots than automated systems.\nBoth arguments miss the point, according to a source close to Lufthansa - who said the airline's executives were advised last year that the programme could not meet safety goals.\nFlying solo for hours is a \"completely different story\", the source said, citing the 2009 AF447 disaster as an example of malfunctions occurring in cruise. The Air France A330's copilots lost control after its speed sensors failed over the Atlantic, while the captain was resting.\n\"Airbus would have had to make sure every situation can be handled autonomously without any pilot input for 15 minutes,\" the source said. \"And that couldn't be guaranteed.\"\nLufthansa has not withdrawn from Project Connect and remains involved as an adviser, its spokesman said.\nWhile the airline has no plans to deploy single-pilot operations, he added, \"the suggestion that Lufthansa was an essential part of the project and then pulled back is not true.\"\nSingle-pilot capability would add an A350 sales argument, experts say, and rival Boeing lacks an equivalent model with sufficient automation.\nFilippo Tomasello, a former EASA official, said the payroll and accommodation savings for long-haul crew would not be lost on airlines.\n\"COVID may end up accelerating this evolution because it's putting tremendous economic pressure on aviation,\" Tomasello predicted.\n\"If EASA certifies this solution, airlines will use it.\"","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":146,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":141451258,"gmtCreate":1625887425074,"gmtModify":1631891133862,"author":{"id":"3576663902413656","authorId":"3576663902413656","name":"Mak2888","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcb071d6ae45ee928ea9f58874ea35dc","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576663902413656","authorIdStr":"3576663902413656"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice&nbsp;","listText":"Nice&nbsp;","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/141451258","repostId":"141407688","repostType":1,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":270,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":103579895,"gmtCreate":1619796438217,"gmtModify":1631893431915,"author":{"id":"3576663902413656","authorId":"3576663902413656","name":"Mak2888","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcb071d6ae45ee928ea9f58874ea35dc","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576663902413656","authorIdStr":"3576663902413656"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Excellent&nbsp;","listText":"Excellent&nbsp;","text":"Excellent","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/103579895","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":99,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":103995467,"gmtCreate":1619742046759,"gmtModify":1631893431919,"author":{"id":"3576663902413656","authorId":"3576663902413656","name":"Mak2888","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dcb071d6ae45ee928ea9f58874ea35dc","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576663902413656","authorIdStr":"3576663902413656"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good to hold","listText":"Good to hold","text":"Good to hold","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/103995467","repostId":"2131534297","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":202,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
