Five sources familiar with the Bank of Japan's thinking said that the Bank of Japan tends to keep interest rates unchanged next week because policymakers tend to spend more time examining overseas risks and clues about salary increase next year. Any similar decision will increase the possibility that the Bank of Japan will raise interest rates at its meeting in January or March next year, when there will be more information about the wage increase next year. The source also said that there was no consensus within the Bank of Japan on the final decision, and some people in the Committee still believed that Japan had met the conditions for raising interest rates in December. This decision will depend on each member's belief in the possibility of achieving wage-driven sustained price increases in Japan. If upcoming events, such as next week's meeting of the Federal Reserve, trigger another sharp fall in the yen, thus intensifying inflationary pressure, the Bank of Japan may also agree to raise interest rates. But overall, many BoJ policymakers seem to be in no hurry to pull the trigger.Institution: The battery price stabilized in November, and it is expected to rise slightly in 2025. On December 12, according to the latest research of TrendForce Jibang Consulting, in November 2024, the sales of electric vehicles in China continued to increase, which boosted the demand for power batteries, and the price of Ferrous lithium phosphate batteries remained stable, while the ternary batteries declined slightly. The demand for batteries in the energy storage market maintained the peak season characteristics, and with the price advantage of large-capacity batteries, the proportion of shipments increased. However, the average price of energy storage batteries continued to decline in November due to the slowdown in demand for orders at the end of the year. The agency expects that the price of some lithium battery materials may rise slightly in the peak season of 2025, which is expected to repair the serious losses of the company in the early stage. However, due to the fact that the relationship between supply and demand has not changed from surplus to shortage, the expected increase in material prices is limited, and battery manufacturers actively control costs, the battery price trend will be stable next year.
Guangxi: Expand the coverage of the "white list" project and include the corresponding projects of new housing development loans. According to the news of Guangxi News Network, the General Office of the People's Government of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region recently issued a notice on printing and distributing the "Measures for Promoting the Stable and Healthy Development of the Real Estate Market in Guangxi". There are 20 measures, including six aspects: implementing financial support policies, optimizing housing accumulation fund policies, strictly controlling the increment of commercial housing, optimizing the stock of commercial housing, improving the quality of commercial housing and optimizing the business environment of the real estate market. Expand the coverage of the "white list" project of urban real estate financing coordination mechanism. In principle, the "white list" mechanism is the main financing channel for compliant housing development projects, and the corresponding projects of new housing development loans are all included in the "white list". Optimize the loan approval process of "white list" projects to improve the efficiency of loan issuance. On the premise of coordinating with the real estate project company, the commercial bank can pay all the loans in advance to the project fund supervision account opened by the real estate project company according to the plan provided by the real estate project company, and then entrust the payment from the supervision account to the fund-using object according to the actual application.The passenger throughput of airports in Shanxi Province exceeded 20 million passengers.

(China News Network)Intel: Breakthrough progress has been made in chip interconnection, and the inter-line capacitance has been reduced by 25%. Recently, Intel OEM announced a major breakthrough in on-chip interconnection technology. The latest subtractive Ruthenium interconnection technology of the company can reduce the inter-line capacitance by up to 25%, effectively improving the on-chip interconnection. According to reports, the subtractive ruthenium interconnection technology has achieved great progress in interconnection miniaturization by using ruthenium, a new, key and alternative metallization material, and using thin film resistivity and airgap. This process does not need an expensive photolithographic air gap exclusion zone around the via, and it can also avoid using a self-aligned via that is selectively etched. When the spacing is less than or equal to 25 nm, the air gap realized by reducing ruthenium interconnection technology can reduce the capacitance between lines by up to 25%, which can be used as a metallization scheme to replace copper damascene process in closely spaced layers. It is reported that this solution is expected to be applied in the future process nodes of Intel OEM. (Sina Technology)
