On May 15, John Williams, President of the New York Federal Reserve, delivered a public speech on Thursday, stating that in the context of significant uncertainty due to conflicts in the Middle East, there is currently no need for the Federal Reserve to consider adjusting interest rate policies. He emphasized that the overall monetary policy is in an appropriate range, with no rationale for either raising or lowering rates in the short term. 

Williams expressed these views at an event hosted by the National Association for Business Economics, maintaining a consistent policy stance. He highlighted the importance of stabilizing inflation expectations, noting that while short-term inflation expectations have risen slightly, this is a normal phenomenon, and long-term inflation expectations remain stable, which is crucial for overall price stability. 

Regarding the impact of tariffs, Williams believes that the inflationary effects of tariffs have largely been absorbed, and it is essential to continue monitoring the evolution of overall price pressures. 

Williams pointed out that current inflation expectations are generally under control, and the labor market has not further pushed up prices. There have been no unusual second-round effects or persistent inflation inertia in the market, but he stressed the need for close observation and vigilance in monitoring. 

Commenting on the continued strength of the U.S. stock market, Williams stated that this is not surprising given the level of optimism regarding the economic outlook. He noted that the market holds optimistic expectations for future productivity gains, with advancements in technology such as artificial intelligence serving as significant support. 

Additionally, he gave a positive assessment of the Federal Reserve's current ample reserves banking liquidity management system, stating that it is functioning well.

On May 15, according to CCTV, under the new circumstances, both China and the United States should actively expand cooperation to create a constructive tone for bilateral relations. It is essential to deeply understand that competition is not a zero-sum game of you win, I lose, nor is it a malignant game of camp confrontation and decoupling; rather, it should be a healthy competition of mutual promotion and progress, serving the common interests of both countries and the overall peace and development of the world. A correct understanding must be established: as two countries with different civilizations, systems, and paths, China and the U.S. will inevitably have differences. The key is to uphold the spirit of equality, respect, and reciprocity, and to find wisdom and methods to resolve these differences. China and the U.S. should strengthen cooperation to maintain the stability of the international order, solidifying the foundation for peaceful coexistence among nations and creating a favorable environment.

On May 15, Slow Fog's Yu Xian announced on social media that the high-risk iOS attack framework Dark Sword has been publicly leaked on platforms like GitHub and is being used for large-scale espionage attacks targeting cryptocurrency wallet holders. This attack program targets devices running iOS versions 18.4 to 18.7, exploiting vulnerabilities in the Safari browser through malicious web pages to achieve remote code execution and steal users' sensitive data. Attackers initiate attacks using bait web pages impersonating pornographic live streams, Tron energy stations, refund processes, and more. iPhone users running older iOS versions may have their sensitive information, such as plaintext private keys and mnemonic phrases, stolen by malicious JavaScript code when accessing such web pages via Safari (even if the page is not closed), with the data being relayed in real-time through channels like Telegram bots.

On May 15, renowned analyst Ming-Chi Kuo released the latest industry survey regarding Apple and Intel's collaboration, stating that in the coming years, the vast majority of advanced process orders will still be concentrated at TSMC. Therefore, Apple is nearly the only and most comprehensive foundry training opportunity for Intel: the orders cover Apple's entire product line, are large enough in scale, and require dynamic adjustments in design and production pace according to market changes. Even though Apple’s orders are unlikely to dramatically reverse IFS's quarterly losses in the short term, and the supply ratio is temporarily constrained by capacity and yield, this collaboration still holds profound strategic significance. However, Apple's high standards, combined with the strategy of concurrently handling orders from other clients, will amplify the challenges in executing Intel's reconstruction of advanced process foundry business. Intel stands at a rare golden reconstruction window due to its own efforts, geopolitical factors, and client risk aversion; but whether it can deliver on this potential will depend entirely on execution capability.

On May 15, U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the goal of obtaining highly enriched uranium from Iran is "more about public relations than anything else," while reiterating his determination to remove these nuclear materials. In an interview aired Thursday night, Trump mentioned that the task of locating uranium believed to be buried under the rubble of destroyed nuclear facilities might be deemed unnecessary, as the U.S. has been conducting round-the-clock surveillance. "We have nine cameras at those three sites, monitoring 24 hours a day," Trump said. "We know exactly what is happening there. No one can even get close." However, Trump expressed that he ultimately hopes to have these materials removed from Iran. "To be honest, if I really got it, I would feel better," Trump said. "But I think it’s more about public relations than anything else." (Dongxin News Agency)
