В условиях очень сильной жары во многих странах Европы производители кондиционеров отмечают резкий рост спроса на них. Китайский производитель бытовой техники Midea сообщил газете Global Times, что в последнее время «продажи кондиционеров на рынках с относительно низким уровнем их распространения, включая Францию, Испанию, Германию и Великобританию, выросли более чем на 70% по сравнению с тем же периодом прошлого года».

В Госдуму внесен правительственный законопроект, нацеленный на защиту предпринимателей от рисков, связанных с внезапным и необоснованным выходом из сделки их контрагентов. Сейчас поставщики (особенно в случае исполнения заказа на высокотехнологичную продукцию для конкретного заказчика) в таких ситуациях могут нести значительные потери — при этом запрашиваемые суммы компенсаций за расторжение контрактов суды зачастую снижают. Поправками к Гражданскому кодексу предусматривается возможность указывать в договоре фиксированную плату за отказ от сделки, размер которой будет определяться по соглашению сторон.

Групповой этап североамериканского чемпионата мира по футболу, подарив минимум настоящих сенсаций и не выкинув из турнира никого из фаворитов, сформировал довольно причудливую сетку play-off. Она состоит из, кажется, очень разных по уровню половинок. Грандам, которые очутились в верхней,— например, испанцам и французам — придется продираться к медалям сквозь густой частокол из «больших» сборных. У грандов, попавших в половинку нижнюю, дорога на первый взгляд куда проще, а действующие обладатели титула аргентинцы первые две стадии вообще должны проскочить на одном дыхании.

Помпезный госвизит американского президента и не менее торжественный официальный визит президента России в Поднебесную стали, пожалуй, самыми яркими политическими зрелищами мая. Но, поскольку от ярких заявлений главы трех супердержав воздержались, события эти мало взволновали рынки. Куда больше инвесторов волновало хрупкое перемирие и блокировка судоходства в Ормузском заливе, которое к концу мая на сдержанной риторике представителей Ирана и США охладило цены на нефть ниже психологического порога $100 за баррель. Однако после «риторики пушек» 25–26 мая, когда американцы заявили об ударах по иранским катерам и пусковым площадкам иранских ракет, и после ответных угроз иранцев поднять цены на нефть до $200 нефть-таки вернулась к росту. Тем временем в России инвесторы в сезон годовых отчетов компаний с большим интересом слушали не политиков, а представителей крупного бизнеса в надежде на рост цен акций и выплату вожделенных дивидендов по итогам 2025 года.

Trump administration’s rhetoric has created so much uncertainty that Poland and Baltic states have fresh doubts as alliance prepares to meet next monthA nightmare scenario has been playing on eastern European minds with increasing intensity since Donald Trump returned to the White House: what if Russia attacks and the US does not join the fight?On the rare occasions the question is posed out loud, nobody much likes the answer.

He shifted uncomfortably in his chair, then gave a meandering answer. It did not include the word “yes”. Continue reading...
