Over the past two weeks, the international crude oil market has continued to revolve around the progress of US-Iran negotiations, the status of passage through the Strait of Hormuz, and the rapid depletion of global inventories. Although the market has pulled back multiple times due to news of ceasefire extensions, partial reopenings of the Strait, and diplomatic negotiations, the risk of supply disruption has not been truly resolved, causing overall oil prices to remain volatile at high levels. Meanwhile, the latest monthly reports from three major agencies show that against the backdrop of blocked Middle East supplies, continuous inventory declines, and demand adjustments, the EIA and IEA lean toward a conservative view on tight supply and suppressed demand, whereas OPEC remains relatively optimistic about demand resilience and supply adjustments. The latest US inventory data also reflects tight fundamentals characterized by continuous crude and gasoline destocking, high exports, and high refinery run rates, indicating that the market relies heavily on the US supply buffer.

Although the market experienced a rapid correction due to the US-Iran peace talks, ceasefire news, and expectations of shipping resumption, overall oil prices continue to fluctuate near high levels, reflecting the market's high sensitivity to supply disruption risks. Looking at the price trends over the past two weeks, international oil prices have pulled back from their highs, but intraday volatility has been extreme. Market sentiment continues to be repeatedly driven by military conflicts, diplomatic negotiations, and the transit situation in the Strait of Hormuz. At the same time, the latest US EIA data also shows that the global supply gap is rapidly reflecting in the physical market. US crude oil, gasoline, and distillate inventories have seen continuous and significant declines, export demand has noticeably heated up, and global oil inventories are rapidly depleting at a historically rare pace.

As AI chip power consumption rises rapidly, GPU server cooling technology is shifting from traditional air cooling to direct liquid cooling, and further evolving toward Micro Channel Cold Plate (MCCP) and Micro Channel Lid (MCL) architectures. This article explains the technical limits of air cooling, liquid-to-air, and liquid-to-liquid cooling, while exploring how MCCP improves heat exchange efficiency and how MCL breaks through the TIM2 bottleneck by shortening the thermal transfer path. The article also discusses opportunities across the thermal management supply chain and the competitive advantages of key beneficiaries.

Recent severe fluctuations in the international crude oil market, driven by geopolitical conflicts, have focused primarily on the risk of a blockade in the Strait of Hormuz and changes in supply shocks and risk premiums triggered by the progress of US-Iran negotiations. International oil prices surged due to the breakdown of US-Iran talks, the US naval blockade on Iranian ports, and the dual blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Although oil prices experienced sharp short-term volatility due to ceasefire expectations and negotiation news, the overall range remains at elevated levels. On the other hand, the IEA and OPEC show clear divergence in their supply and demand outlooks: the former significantly downgraded demand and emphasized the risk of supply chain damage, while the latter maintained robust supply and demand growth expectations. In terms of inventories, the US inventory structure and refining activities also showed a divergent trend of "crude oil inventory builds, with consecutive significant draws in SPR and refined products," further supporting crack spreads and refining margins.

In investment decision-making, relying solely on stock price movements is insufficient to accurately assess a company’s value. A more rational foundation can be established through systematic valuation methods. This article begins with the concept of intrinsic value, explaining the differences between book value and enterprise value, and illustrates how financial models integrate industry analysis, business models, and assumption building to derive a fair stock price. It also outlines common valuation approaches and their applications, helping investors build a comprehensive valuation framework and improve their ability to identify undervalued or overvalued stocks.

Grab’s $600 million acquisition of foodpanda’s Taiwan business has become one of the most closely watched deals in the food delivery sector in recent years. The transaction not only reflects Delivery Hero’s strategic asset restructuring under capital pressure, but also marks Grab’s official expansion beyond Southeast Asia into East Asia. As the market structure is set to evolve, Taiwan’s delivery industry may shift from a duopoly toward competition between diversified ecosystems, with the competitive focus moving away from price subsidies to platform integration, user experience, and long-term profitability.
