Apple Concord's AI Original Company to make the big model work directly on iPhone

On 15 July, according to CNBC, Apple was in initial contact with the initial AI company PrismML and was assessing its AI model compression technology, with the hope that the large AI model would operate directly at iPhone without having to rely on cloud-based calculations. PrismML states that it can reduce model memory occupancy by 10 to 15 times, allowing models with 27 billion parameters to operate at iPhone 15 and above, while increasing response rates by 6 to 8 times and reducing energy consumption by 3 to 6 times. If technology matures, apples are expected to move more Siri and generating AI functions to local operations, further increase response speed, privacy protection capacity and offline use experience, and reduce cloud computing costs. However, it was noted by industry that the technology still needed to be validated through large-scale practical applications, and its impact on battery continuity, stability and long-term performance remained to be seen。

Joao Wedson: ETF performance in emerging markets or presuppressing a better risk margin for the US share

According to analyst Joao Wedson, the ETF of the Ishares MSCI emerging market usually weakens before S&P 500 begins to weaken. He shared the phenomenon and referred to historical data on its annual performance. When the year-on-year change exceeds a certain threshold, it tends to foreshadow an important top of S&P 500 or the accompanying market correction. This is closely related to the behaviour of emerging markets, which are generally more sensitive to changes in global liquidity, the United States dollar, interest rates, capital flows and risk preferences. The current year-to-year reading is once again above the historical threshold, and although this does not guarantee that S&P 500 has reached the final top, it is a warning that cannot be ignored. Emerging markets may again send early signals that risk preferences are approaching an important turning point。

American media: Trump asked Netanyahu to withdraw from Syria and Lebanon

On 15 July, according to Axios, citing officials from the United States and Israel, United States President Trump, in a recent conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, stated that the redeployment of Israeli forces from Syria should begin and urged Israel to take similar action in Lebanon. According to Trump, the presence of Israeli forces in the Syrian-controlled zone could lead to an escalation of the situation and to Netanyahu: “They do not want you there and you should redeploy”. Netanyahu, for his part, stressed the need for Israel to maintain a secure buffer zone at the border. According to reports, the Trump Government has been pushing Israel-Syria for several months to reach new security arrangements in the hope of a gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces from Syrian territory since the fall of the Assad regime at the end of 2024, but considers Netanyahu to have no intention of making any related concessions. In addition, the United States has recently conducted good offices on the implementation of the Lebanese-Israeli ceasefire framework to facilitate the withdrawal of the Israeli forces from parts of southern Lebanon, although the withdrawal schedule remains divided。
