U.S. equities rallied across the board on Tue, and global crude pulled back as both WTI and Brent fell, easing inflation concerns. Separately, the White House said Trump will deliver a nationwide address at 9:00 p.m. ET on Wed (9:00 a.m. Thu Beijing time) to provide an update on Iran. ## **đŸŦ Stocks** **1.**$Taiwan Semiconductor(TSM.US) TSMC's Japan JASM Fab 2 will move up from 6nm to 3nm, with 15k wpm of 12-inch wafers and mass production in 2028. It also received approval for a $30bn overseas capital increase for FX management. Positioned as a global backup for advanced nodes and paired with local supply chains at Sony, Toyota, and Denso, the strategy delivers both geographic diversification and advanced-node capacity expansion. It strengthens TSMC's global redundancy while tying into Japan's premium auto and image-sensor demand. **2.**$Marvell Tech(MRVL.US) NVIDIA invested $2bn in Marvell, bringing it into the AI ecosystem. The two will deepen collaboration across NVLink Fusion, silicon photonics, and AI-RAN (5G/6G). Marvell will supply custom XPU and networking solutions fully compatible with NVIDIA's GPU/DPU stack. With both capital and ecosystem support, Marvell shares surged 11% on the day. **3.**$Alphabet(GOOGL.US) Google DeepMind launched Veo 3.1 Lite. Priced at less than 50% of Veo 3.1 Fast with comparable generation speed, it supports 720p/1080p resolution, multi-aspect switching, and 4–8s duration. Google also previewed a price cut for Fast on Apr 7, aiming to win developers with aggressive pricing. **4.**$Coreweave(CRWV.US) AI cloud provider CoreWeave secured an $8.5bn delayed-draw term loan (DDTL), the first-ever investment-grade financing backed by GPU assets. Rated A3 by Moody's and A by DBRS, it is led by Blackstone with MUFG, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and JP Morgan participating; it is non-recourse and matures in 2032. Proceeds will fund capacity expansion and contracts with top-tier AI customers, validating GPUs as high-grade hard assets for financing and opening low-cost capital for AI infra. CoreWeave optimizes its capital structure and accelerates expansion, sharpening its differentiated edge vs. AWS and GCP. **5.**$Bilibili(BILI.US) Bilibili officially removed its 'Guess You Might Like' recommendation feed, ending history-based content push. It rolled out a new algorithm combining AI content understanding with community interaction quality, targeting a break from filter bubbles and greater content diversity. If outcomes validate the approach, content platforms could shift from algorithmic feeding to active discovery. **6\.
