Tangent Rival Nvidia’s shares rose by 3.7% on Wednesday, despite analysts suggesting Marvell poses a threat in the AI market. Bank of America analyst Justin Post said in a note Amazon spent more than $20 billion on Nvidia’s chips, compared to between $1 billion and $2 billion on Marvell’s. Nvidia is working in partnership with AWS on Project Ceiba, a supercomputer for AI programs that includes more than 20,000 of Nvidia’s Blackwell graphics processing units. Key Background Marvell’s stock has risen this year in parallel with a growing demand for advanced chips for generative AI. Amazon, which designs its in-house chips in partnership with Marvell, has relied on both Nvidia, Marvell and other companies to develop its AI products. Marvell has reportedly been approached by companies like Amazon, Google and Microsoft to provide custom AI chips as an alternative to Nvidia, whose products have dominated the market. Reuters reported Marvell’s chief executive Matt Murphy was contacted by Intel to potentially become the chipmaker’s next CEO, after CEO Pat Gelsinger’s resignation. Murphy—who was appointed as Marvell’s CEO in June—appeared to decline the offer, telling analysts on Tuesday he was “100% focused” on Marvell’s growth. Further Reading

FILE PHOTO: A banner for journalist Austin Tice, who disappeared while reporting in Syria in 2012, hangs outside the National Press Club building in Washington, U.S., May 2, 2023. REUTERS/Evelyn Hockstein/File photo WASHINGTON - The United States has asked Syria's Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) rebel group to help locate and free missing American journalist Austin Tice as it liberates the country's prisons in the aftermath of Bashar al-Assad's overthrow, State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said on Tuesday. Washington is telling all parties in Syria that Tice, who was abducted in Syria in 2012, is a top U.S. priority, Miller told a press briefing. Miller said that message had been sent via intermediaries to HTS, the faction that led the rebel operation that unseated Assad and which the U.S. considers to be a terror group, as well as other entities operating in Syria. "In all of our communications with parties that we know talk to HTS, we have sent very clearly the message that as they move through Syria liberating prisons, that our top priority is the return of Austin Tice," he said. "We want anyone who's operating on the ground in Syria to be on the lookout for him, and if they do find him, to return to him to us safely as soon as possible." President Joe Biden has said he believes Tice is alive and has dispatched hostage-affairs envoy Roger Carstens to the region as part of intensive efforts to free him. HTS is using the right words in its statements, but the United States would judge it by its actions, Miller said, declining to say whether Washington would change the group's designation as a foreign terrorist organization, which prevents the U.S. from assisting the group. "We have seen over the years, any number of militant groups who have seized power, who have promised that they would respect minorities, who have promised that they would respect religious freedom, promised that they would govern in an inclusive way, and then see them fail to meet those promises," Miller said. "So we really do mean it when we say what's important is watching how they actually behave in the coming weeks." Miller said U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken spoke on Tuesday about the situation in Syria with counterparts from Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Egypt. Earlier on Tuesday, Blinken issued a statement saying the United States fully supports Syria's political transition process and wants it to lead to credible, inclusive, and non-sectarian governance that meets international standards of transparency and accountability.

Inflation is predicted to average 2.5% this year and 2.6% next year, according to forecasts from the Office for Budget Responsibility. The British Medical Association said the Government showed a “poor grasp” of unresolved issues from two years of industrial action, and the Royal College of Nursing called the pay recommendation “deeply offensive”. The National Education Union’s chief said teachers were “putting the Government on notice” that the proposed increase “won’t do”. The pay recommendations came after Chancellor Rachel Reeves called for every Government department to cut costs by 5%, as she started work on a sweeping multi-year spending review to be published in 2025. Independent pay review bodies will consider the proposals for pay rises for teachers, NHS workers and senior civil servants. The Department of Health said it viewed 2.8% as a “reasonable amount” to set aside, in its recommendations to the NHS Pay Review Body and the Doctors’ and Dentists’ Remuneration Board remit groups. A 2.8% pay rise for teachers in 2025/26 would “maintain the competitiveness of teachers’ pay despite the challenging financial backdrop the Government is facing”, the Department for Education said. The Cabinet Office also suggested pay increases for senior civil servants should be kept to no more than 2.8%. Paul Johnson, director of the influential economics think tank the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS), said it was “not a bad ballpark figure” and feels “just about affordable” given the Government’s public spending plans. The downside, he said, is that public sector workers have lost out since 2010 and unions will be upset that this is not making up the gap, he told Sky News’ Politics Hub with Sophy Ridge. “But given the constraints facing the Chancellor I think it’s pretty hard to argue for more for public sector pay when public sector services ... are under real strain,” he said. Unions expressed their disappointment in the recommendations, with some hinting they could be willing to launch industrial action. The Royal College of Nursing general secretary and chief executive called for “open direct talks now” to avoid “further escalation to disputes and ballots”. Professor Nicola Ranger said: “The Government has today told nursing staff they are worth as little as £2 extra a day, less than the price of a coffee. “Nursing is in crisis – there are fewer joining and too many experienced professionals leaving. This is deeply offensive to nursing staff, detrimental to their patients and contradictory to hopes of rebuilding the NHS. “The public understands the value of nursing and they know that meaningful reform of the NHS requires addressing the crisis in nursing. “We pulled out of the Pay Review Body process, alongside other unions, because it is not the route to address the current crisis. “That has been demonstrated today. “Fair pay must be matched by structural reform. Let’s open direct talks now and avoid further escalation to disputes and ballots – I have said that directly to government today.” Professor Philip Banfield, chairman of the British Medical Association’s council, urged the sector’s pay review body to “show it is now truly independent”. “For this Government to give evidence to the doctors’ and dentists’ pay review body (DDRB) believing a 2.8% pay rise is enough, indicates a poor grasp of the unresolved issues from two years of industrial action,” he said. He said the proposal is far below the current rate of inflation and that the Government was “under no illusion” when doctors accepted pay offers in the summer that there was a “very real risk of further industrial action” if “pay erosion” was not addressed in future pay rounds. “This sub-inflationary suggestion from the current Government serves as a test to the DDRB. “The BMA expects it to take this opportunity to show it is now truly independent, to take an objective view of the evidence it receives from all parties, not just the Government, and to make an offer that reflects the value of doctors’ skills and expertise in a global market, and that moves them visibly further along the path to full pay restoration.” The NEU’s general secretary, Daniel Kebede, said teachers’ pay had been cut by more than one-fifth in real terms since 2010. “Along with sky-high workload, the pay cuts have resulted in a devastating recruitment and retention crisis. Teacher shortages across the school system hit pupils and parents too. “A 2.8% increase is likely to be below inflation and behind wage increases in the wider economy. This will only deepen the crisis in education.” In a hint that there could be a return to industrial action he added: “NEU members fought to win the pay increases of 2023 and 2024. “We are putting the Government on notice. Our members care deeply about education and feel the depth of the crisis. This won’t do.” The offer for teachers is the “exact opposite of fixing the foundations” and will result in bigger class sizes and more cuts to the curriculum, Pepe Di’Iasio, general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, said: “The inadequacy of the proposed pay award is compounded by the Government’s intention that schools should foot the bill out of their existing allocations. “Given that per-pupil funding will increase on average by less than 1% next year, and the Government’s proposal is for an unfunded 2.8% pay award, it is obvious that this is in fact an announcement of further school cuts.” Paul Whiteman, general secretary at school leaders’ union NAHT, said: This recommendation falls far short of what is needed to restore the competitiveness of the teaching profession, to enable it to retain experienced professionals and attract new talent. Unison head of health Helga Pile said: “The Government has inherited a financial mess from its predecessors, but this is not what NHS workers wanted to hear. “Staff are crucial in turning around the fortunes of the NHS. Improving performance is a key Government pledge, but the pay rise proposed is barely above the cost of living.”
Benazir Bhutto: A real champion of democracy Former prime minister Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto. — APP/File In a country which except for its first couple of years had always been ruled by its establishment, founder Chairman Pakistan Peoples Party Zulfikar Ali Bhutto proclaimed “democracy is our politics” and “all power to the people” as two of the four of the founding principles of his new party on its foundation day. In spite of all the machinations of the establishment, the PPP defeated all reactionary pro-establishment parties in the elections of 1970 and won with a big majority in what is now Pakistan. A new pole of power, that of the power of the people, was thus created in Pakistan. In the post-Bhutto period, political power has been oscillating between these two poles: the establishment and the people. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1700472799616-0'); }); It is dictatorship when the establishment captures state power, either directly or through proxy parties created by it to block the march of democracy. One distinguishing factor for Pakistan has remained that the establishment has always ruled with the support of Western imperialism, who in the garb of friendship have always been taking military duty from our country. It has been democracy although for limited periods when the forces of the people have asserted their right on state power even after heavily rigged elections. Quite a few countries have experienced long periods of military dictatorship and their tyranny after the execution of their democratic leaders with one general succeeding the other. Those aspiring for democracy in Pakistan also faced the worst tyranny after the assassination of Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. Many went to the gallows and suffered lashes and jails. Some went into hiding. Some others secretly left the country. There was despair and hopelessness. The forces of democracy were all scattered and uprooted. What was happening in Pakistan during military dictatorship was not dissimilar to what had happened in other countries which had faced long military dictatorships. Yet there was a difference and the difference was young Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto Shaheed, who in that darkest period of our history stepped forward with commitment, courage and wisdom to lead the democratic movement. She understood that all growing movements are inclusive in essence. One could not lead by dividing the nation. Power of the people lay in their unity. Leading from the front, she set out to collect the scattered workers of her party. She rekindled hope in their hearts. She made them believe that the flow of time and history was towards the future. Dictatorships and their tyranny could not last for ever. The journey towards democracy had to be restarted with unity in their ranks and faith in their hearts. PPP workers responded with a new determination. Her next step was to bring other parties together on a common platform of restoration of democracy. Many of these parties had been opposed to Bhutto Shaheed and had provided political support to the military dictator. Yet they were watching that in spite of the dirty maligning propaganda campaign against the PPP and its leadership, public support was with the PPP and Benazir Bhutto. For their own political survival, there was no option left for them but to join the common platform of the Movement for the Restoration of Democracy (MRD). Brave workers of the PPP led by their brave leader Benazir Bhutto gave immense sacrifices in the MRD movement. The MRD did not remove the dictator. But both within and outside the country dictatorship was crippled. Within the country the dictator was no longer feared by the people. Outside the country the movement had made it obvious that people of Pakistan wanted revival of their Constitution and Democracy. The very forces of Western imperialism which had brought and sustained military dictatorship for their own reasons started raising questions on whether it was possible to continue the old policies. The dictator was forced to call general elections to appease his foreign support. In an attempt to fortify his rule through the policy of dividing the nation on multiple fault lines of language, sect, biradri, tribe etc. as also to ward off the danger of a PPP victory, these sham elections were called on a non-party basis. Ground was already slipping from under the feet of dictatorship. The forces of Democracy were making new advances in the leadership of Benazir Bhutto. General elections had to be called in the country after the military dictator was killed in a plane crash. A great damage, however, had already been done by the dictator in the process of appeasing the West in the shape of recruiting non-state militants for the so-called Jihad against Russia. The next 10 years are conspicuous with the establishment resorting to continuous manipulations and conspiracies against the two elected governments of Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto and their ultimate dismissal by the president and bringing up the PML (N) as their own proxy in the government. This partnership arrangement being devoid of the support of the people had its own internal contradictions, with each of the two partners clamouring for more space in governance. The conflict between the two however did not stop the two PML (N) governments to institute false cases against the PPP leadership and throwing Mr. Zardari and other PPP leaders in jail. Statesmanship and commitment to democracy of Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto is seen at a climax when she saved the PML (N) government from being dismissed by the president through directing her party’s elected members in the parliament to vote for the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, thus taking away the powers of the president to dismiss governments. The next step for strengthening democracy was taken by her when the door to floor crossing was shut with the PPP support to the passage of the 14th Amendment. Saving the PML (N) government on both these occasions by her had been unconditional. To her own party members she explained that the parliament had to be protected against the establishment because ‘democracy was our politics’. A power drunk PML (N) government refused to learn its lessons even after its narrow survival. Instead of creating a broad-based consensus for strengthening democracy, they continued with the policy of false cases against the opposition and throwing them in jails. Journalists writing against the government were similarly victimised. The Supreme Court was physically attacked. Two army chiefs were dismissed. The advent of the next military dictator Pervez Musharraf can be seen as nothing but the culmination of the internal growing conflict between the creator and the creation when any reconciliation between the two was no longer possible. However, after a brief term in jail and a court decision against them, the PML (N) leadership soon reached one more compromise with the establishment with the help and arbitration of a third country. They agreed to live abroad for a fixed period leaving a leaderless party behind them. Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto, who was already leading her party from exile, took over the democratic struggle against the new dictatorship. Inside Pakistan she was in daily contact with her party leaders and directing them in their struggle. Abroad, she was continuously meeting opinion makers in other countries and giving lectures on the dangers of denial of democracy in Pakistan. She told her audience everywhere that to the existing dangers had now been added new threats from non-state actors in the shape of extremism and terrorism. These non-state actors enjoyed the overt and covert support of our establishment. She realised that it was necessary to bring PML (N) the other major party in the democratic camp for the revival of democracy in Pakistan. The time was ripe since the PML (N) had been stung by the ruling dictatorship. Leaving all grudges behind she moved forward to convince them on the need of reviving democracy in Pakistan. The Charter of Democracy which has resulted in the passage of 18th Amendment under the guidance of President Asif Ali Zardari after her martyrdom was signed between the two parties. Democracy and terrorism cannot coexist. Unfortunately, the denial of democracy for a long period had let her country slip in the expanding grip of terrorism and extremism. Very few understood but she was the one who successfully negotiated a return for PML (N) leadership and herself to Pakistan at great risk to her life to run election campaigns with their respective election manifestoes in order to make the elections meaningful and democracy sustainable in Pakistan. It was this day in 2007, when as the winter sun was setting at Rawalpindi, Benazir Bhutto rose from her vehicle for the last time to respond to the rousing slogans which the people were raising. They stood in all directions as far as one could see. These were people for whose political, economic and social rights she had fought all her life and given her all, for whom she had returned at great risk to her life: her people. For her this was a familiar sight but being amongst her people had always renewed her faith in the destiny and the bright future of her nation. Then suddenly she was no more. Someone said that she could have saved her life if she had not stood up in her vehicle. Perhaps not. These people were her people and she was Benazir Bhutto. A real champion of democracy.The Essential Role of Moulded Case Circuit Breakers in Electrical Safe 12-26-2024 07:34 PM CET | Industry, Real Estate & Construction Press release from: ABNewswire Moulded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCBs) are essential components in modern electrical systems, providing critical protection against overloads and short circuits.

PARIS: France is facing a significant political crisis after Prime Minister Michel Barnier on Wednesday lost a confidence vote in the National Assembly, raising concerns about the European Union's second-biggest economic power's upcoming budget next year. Far-right and left-wing lawmakers joined forces to back a no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Michel Barnier and his government, with a majority 331 votes in support of the motion. Barnier was expected to tender his resignation and that of his government to President Emmanuel Macron shortly. The hard left and far right punished Barnier for opting to use special constitutional powers to adopt part of an unpopular budget without a final vote in parliament, where it lacked majority support. The draft budget had sought 60 billion euros ($63.07 billion) in savings in a drive to shrink a gaping deficit. "This (deficit) reality will not disappear by the magic of a motion of censure," Barnier told lawmakers ahead of the vote, adding the budget deficit would come back to haunt whichever government comes next. No French government had lost a confidence vote since Georges Pompidou's in 1962. Macron ushered in the crisis by calling a snap election in June that delivered a polarised parliament. With its president diminished, France now risks ending the year without a stable government or a 2025 budget, although the constitution allows special measures that would avert a US-style government shutdown. France's political turmoil will further weaken a European Union already reeling from the implosion of Germany's coalition government, and weeks before US President-elect Donald Trump returns to the White House. "We have arrived at the moment of truth," far-right National Rally leader Marine Le Pen said, adding that Barnier's austerity budget plans had been dangerous and unfair and would have meant chaos for France. The hard left France Unbowed (LFI) party demanded Macron's resignation. "With the no-confidence motion, all of the politics of Emmanuel Macron have been defeated and we demand that he goes," said LFI member Mathilde Panot. France now faces a period of deep political uncertainty that is already unnerving investors in French sovereign bonds and stocks. Earlier this week, France's borrowing costs briefly exceeded those of Greece, generally considered far more risky. Macron must now make a choice. Three sources told Reuters that Macron aimed to install a new prime minister swiftly, with one saying he wanted to name a premier before a ceremony to reopen the Notre-Dame Cathedral on Saturday, which Trump is due to attend. Any new prime minister would face the same challenges as Barnier in getting bills, including the 2025 budget, adopted by a divided parliament. There can be no new parliamentary election before July. Macron could alternatively ask Barnier and his ministers to stay on in a caretaker capacity while he takes time to identify a prime minister able to attract sufficient cross-party support to pass legislation. A caretaker government could either propose emergency legislation to roll the tax-and-spend provisions in the 2024 budget into next year, or invoke special powers to pass the draft 2025 budget by decree - though jurists say this is a legal grey area and the political cost would be huge. Macron's opponents also could vote down one prime minister after the next. His rivals say the only meaningful way to end the protracted political crisis is for him to resign, something he has hitherto shown little inclination to do. The upheaval is not without risk for Le Pen, who has for years sought to convince voters that her party offers a stable government in waiting. "The French will harshly judge the choice you are going to make," Laurent Wauquiez, a lawmaker from the conservative Les Republicains party who backs Macron, told Le Pen in parliament. Since Macron called the summer snap election, France's CAC 40 benchmark stock market index has dropped nearly 10% and is the heaviest loser among top EU economies. The euro single currency is down nearly 4%. "The positive signals ... that were seen over the summer, partly due to the Olympics, are now a thing of the past," Hamburg Commercial Bank economist Tariq Kamal Chaudhry said. Barnier's draft budget had sought to cut the fiscal deficit from a projected 6% of national output this year to 5% in 2025. Voting down his government would be catastrophic for state finances, he said. Le Pen shrugged off the warning.
