On April 15, a senior official from Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry stated on Wednesday that Japan plans to begin releasing approximately 36 million barrels of its national oil reserves starting in early May, with contracts for refineries expected to be finalized by the end of April. Last week, Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi indicated that Japan intends to utilize 20 days' worth of oil reserves starting in May to ensure stable domestic supply. Additionally, Japan is seeking oil resources from non-Middle Eastern regions due to ongoing conflicts affecting global energy transport between the U.S., Israel, and Iran. Japan began a unilateral release of oil reserves on March 16 and has coordinated with other countries to prepare sufficient reserves for 50 days of supply, with the upcoming release of 20 days' worth being an increase on that basis. Japan's daily oil demand is approximately 1.8 million barrels.

According to Beating monitoring, Meta has announced an expansion of its partnership with Broadcom, with both parties set to jointly develop multiple generations of the MTIA (Meta Training and Inference Accelerator) chips. MTIA is Meta's self-developed AI accelerator, optimized for inference and recommendation systems. Earlier this March, Meta announced plans to develop and deploy four generations of MTIA chips within two years, and this agreement with Broadcom will accelerate that process. The agreement is based on Broadcom's XPU platform, a technology solution for custom AI accelerators, covering chip design, advanced packaging, and network interconnects. Broadcom's Ethernet technology will be used for high-bandwidth communication between Meta's rapidly expanding AI computing clusters. Zuckerberg stated that the initial deployment will exceed 1GW of self-developed chip computing power, with plans to expand to several GW levels in the future. Broadcom CEO Hock Tan noted that this is just the 'beginning of a multi-generational roadmap.' Due to the expanded scale of cooperation, Hock Tan, who has served as a member of Meta's board for two years, will step down from the board and take on an advisory role, providing guidance on Meta's self-developed chip roadmap and infrastructure investments.
