0413 | Dolphin Focus — 🐬 Macro/Industry. 1) Trump announced that, after US-Iran talks in Pakistan collapsed, the US military will at 10:00 ET on Apr 13 (10pm Beijing time tonight) impose a full blockade of Iranian ports and the Strait of Hormuz.It will intercept all vessels to and from Iran and cut off its oil exports. Iran's military issued a hardline response, stating any US approach will be treated as a provocation and met with firm retaliation.This would sharply elevate geopolitical risk and disrupt shipping, chemicals and related supply chains. It would also reinforce expectations that the Fed keeps rates higher for longer, putting near-term pressure on HK stocks and growth names.

$Alibaba(BABA.US)$BABA-W(09988.HK)Looks like Alibaba’s ATH unit just dropped a quiet bombshell in the AI video space — and the market‘s starting to take notice.HappyHorse 1.0 topped the Artificial Analysis leaderboard in both text-to-video and image-to-video (no audio) categories, beating ByteDance’s Seedance 2.0 by a pretty significant margin (106 points higher).More importantly, this is the first public release from ATH‘s Innovation Incubation Unit, which launched last month. The API is set to open April 30, and given the company’s history with open-source models, there‘s speculation this one might follow a similar path.The tech stack here is quite something: a unified 40-layer Transformer with ~15B parameters, native audio-video sync support for seven languages, and 1080p output.This signals two parallel teams inside Alibaba — one doing foundational research at Tongyi Lab, another focused on applied innovation. They’re moving fast. And with 2026 being a ” key year for AI acceleration,“ it looks like the company is serious about building a full-stack presence here.
