Britains five-year gilt yield rose more than 4 basis points to 4.093%, its highest level since June 16.Europes tech index rose 1.6% as chip stocks rebounded.According to the latest research by TrendForce on July 17, Korean and American memory manufacturers will significantly reduce or stop supplying LPDDR4X in 2025 and 2026. However, the specifications of the corresponding mobile phone processor chips fail to support LPDDR5X at the same time, resulting in a supply-demand gap. In order to avoid the supply gap affecting output, brand manufacturers have expanded their purchases of LPDDR4X, which is the main reason for the increase in contract prices. As mainstream suppliers reduce the production of old-generation products, the convergence of LPDDR4X supply has become an inevitable trend. Therefore, it is estimated that this wave of price increases will continue at least until the beginning of next year, and will be alleviated after brands expand the adoption of LPDDR5X.UK two-year gilt yields rose more than 5 basis points to 3.904%, the highest level since July 9.On July 17, Citigroup expected the European Central Bank to keep interest rates unchanged this month and cut rates in September, which was previously expected to be cut at the meeting next week. Citigroup strategists said in a report that they continue to predict that the European Central Bank will cut interest rates twice this year, but the timing has been adjusted to September and December, rather than the previously expected July and September. LSEG data shows that the eurozone money market currently has a low probability of expecting a rate cut before December.

New York state Amazon warehouse employees desire unionization

According to a statement issued by the National Labor Relations Board on Tuesday, workers at an Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) warehouses outside Albany, New York, are attempting to unionize.


The Amazon Labor Union, the same independent organization that orchestrated a historic union victory at another Staten Island warehouse in April, petitioned the federal labor board to hold an election at the warehouse near Albany and represent around 400 workers.


The online giant is accused of prioritizing profit over worker safety and illegally blocking unionization, prompting employees at dozens of Amazon warehouses across the United States to consider union membership.


Amazon spokesperson Paul Flanagan reacted to a request for comment on the warehouse in the Albany area by noting, "Our employees have the option to join a union or not." They always have had. We do not believe unions are the best option for our employees. We are committed to working closely with our team to make Amazon a great place to work."


In the past year, unionization petitions have been filed at multiple Amazon warehouses, including the one in Albany.


The Amazon Labor Union held elections at two Staten Island locations. The first group voted to unionize, whereas the second group did not.


A petition to unionize a tiny New Jersey warehouse was withdrawn.
