The Stoxx Europe 600 hit a record high on Wednesday as fears over US tariffs eased and investors bought cheaper European stocks following strong corporate earnings.
欧洲斯托克600指数(Stoxx 600)周三升至创纪录高位。市场对美国关税的担忧有所缓解，而在企业报告强劲业绩后，投资者纷纷买入估值较低的欧洲股票。
The broad-based European index rose as much as 0.8 per cent to a record high of 529.88, fuelled by gains for some of Europe’s largest companies, such as Danish drugmaker Novo Nordisk and Germany’s Adidas.

Donald Trump was widely expected to launch a tariff war as soon as he returned to office. In the event, the first shots in his war on the globalised economy happened on quite a different front.
人们普遍预计唐纳德•特朗普(Donald Trump)一回到办公室就会发动关税战争。然而，他对全球化经济开战的第一枪是在一条截然不同的战线上打响的。
In his flurry of orders and memos this week, Trump definitively withdrew already shaky US support for the global compromise on taxing the profits of multinational corporations, a reform painstakingly worked out over the past decade.
在本周发布一系列命令和备忘录中，特朗普明确撤回了美国对向跨国公司利润征税的全球妥协方案的本已摇摇欲坠的支持，这项改革经过过去十年的艰苦努力才促成。
He also threatened punitive retaliation on any country levying “extraterritorial” or “discriminatory” taxes on US multinationals.
他还威胁要对任何对美国跨国公司征收“域外”或“歧视性”税的国家进行惩罚性报复。

Samsung is stepping up its push to grab a bigger share of the US smartphone market from Apple, as the South Korean tech giant launched its latest artificial intelligence-powered smartphone on Wednesday.
韩国科技巨头三星公司周三推出了其最新的AI智能手机，该公司正加大力度从苹果公司手中抢夺美国智能手机市场更大的份额。
The company unveiled the S25 at Samsung’s annual “Unpacked” event in San Jose, California, marking its latest push to capitalise on its first-mover advantage over Apple, which has been slower to roll out generative AI features across iPhones.
三星在加利福尼亚州圣何塞举行的三星年度“Unpacked”活动上发布了S25，标志着其利用相对苹果的先发优势的最新努力，苹果在iPhone上推出生成式人工智能功能的速度较慢。
TM Roh, president of Samsung’s mobile division, said the S25’s new AI operating system, built on Google’s Gemini large language models and chips from Qualcomm, would give it an advantage in the US smartphone market, where the iPhone maker dominates sales.
三星移动部门总裁TM Roh表示，S25的新AI操作系统基于谷歌的Gemini大型语言模型和高通的芯片，这将使其在由iPhone制造商主导销售的美国智能手机市场获得优势。

OpenAI hit back at Elon Musk’s criticism of Stargate, the new $500bn artificial intelligence infrastructure project hailed by Donald Trump as a “resounding declaration of confidence in America’s potential under a new president”.
OpenAI反击了埃隆•马斯克(Elon Musk)对Stargate的批评。这个新的5000亿美元人工智能基础设施项目被唐纳德•特朗普(Donald Trump)誉为“对美国在新总统领导下潜力充满信心的有力宣言”。
In a rare break with Trump, Musk on Tuesday evening poured cold water on the project, writing: “They don’t actually have the money.” He added that he had it “on good authority” that SoftBank had secured less than $10bn.
马斯克在周二晚上对该项目泼了冷水，他写道“它们实际上没有钱”，罕见地与特朗普意见不一致。他同时表示，他“有可靠消息”，软银获得的资金不到100亿美元。
OpenAI’s chief executive Sam Altman responded on Wednesday that Musk’s claim was “wrong, as you surely know”.
OpenAI的首席执行官萨姆•奥尔特曼(Sam Altman)周三回应称，马斯克的说法是“错误的，你肯定知道”。
