The remarks helped calm energy and financial markets and tempered expectations for a near-term spike in oil. However, the conflict continues and Iran has responded firmly, so geopolitical risk remains elevated. Expect recurring volatility in oil and global risk assets, and watch subsequent military moves and strait navigation closely. ## 🐬 Stocks **1.**$Taiwan Semiconductor(TSM.US) TSMC reported Feb sales of NT$317.657bn, up 22.2% YoY and down MoM. Aggregate Jan–Feb revenue rose nearly 30% YoY, with AI chip demand continuing to support results. The strong YoY growth underscores the resilience of the AI compute cycle, while the MoM dip is seasonal. Ongoing strength reflects full order books for advanced nodes and AI chips, a positive for the semi supply chain and a capacity backstop for Nvidia and other AI vendors. **2.**$NVIDIA(NVDA.US) Nvidia plans to launch the open-source 'NemoClaw' AI agent platform to rival OpenClaw, designed to be hardware-agnostic and help enterprises rapidly deploy autonomous AI agents, with release expected around GTC. Big Tech entry should accelerate AI agent adoption, further igniting interest in the 'Claw' ecosystem and lifting compute demand. **3.**$BABA-W(09988.HK) Qwen leadership changes are set: Alibaba Cloud CTO Jingren Zhou will serve as interim head of the Qwen model. Liu Dayiheng will lead pre-training and also take over post-training and the Coding team, improving R&D coordination. This should cushion near-term personnel volatility. Longer term, the focus is on whether iteration can speed up and open-source competitiveness can be maintained. **4\. Dolphin Research on earnings and call transcripts** CATL: '[Capacity maxed out!
