Among them, 300,000-ton oil tankers, large liquefied petroleum gas ships and liquefied natural gas ships have all achieved exponential growth. Green fuel ships such as methanol and ammonia have continued to iteratively upgrade, adding "oil" and "gas" to global energy transportation. The industrial robot industry has accelerated digital intelligence empowerment, exporting nearly 10 billion yuan, an increase of 16.9%, assisting the transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industries of trading partners. Exports of electronic components increased by 70%, and electrical equipment such as wires and cables increased by 25.3%, providing a strong "core" and "pulse" for the development of global AI computing power and power infrastructure. Amid the unstable situation in the Middle East and the tight supply of global energy and chemical raw materials, in the first three quarters, China's exports of basic organic chemicals increased by 24.4%, and primary-form plastics increased by 32.2%, adding "liquid" and "material" to the production of various countries.

Musk said that his subsidiaries will independently build and operate Terafab, a terawatt-level chip manufacturing project, ruling out the possibility of TSMC taking over and operating this project. 7. Lambda, a cloud computing startup backed by Nvidia, is raising up to $4 billion in funding, with a pre-money valuation of $14.5 billion. Its AI computing power backlog had grown to US$50 billion by September. 8. Google and Unity have reached a cooperation on a new AI game platform for the next generation of interactive entertainment, and will launch the Unity Spark creation platform later this year. 9. The latest report from Aterio, a data center research institution, shows that Oracle’s 1.3GW data center project “Project Lighthouse” in Wisconsin, USA, faces the risk of power supply delays. Under the baseline scenario, full power supply may be postponed to October 2028, and under the extension scenario, it may be postponed to April 2029. 10. The 2026 Nobel Prize in Chemistry will be awarded to Henri B. Kagan and Kenso Soai for their "discovery of nonlinear effects and autocatalysis in asymmetric organic synthesis." 11. The yield on the 30-year U.S. Treasury bond rose above 5.7%, rising more than 6 basis points during the day and continuing to hit the highest level since 2002. 12.
