‘Smash’ Broadway Review: Scratching A 13-Year Itch

When the Broadway-themed drama Smash began its two-season run on NBC in 2012, the entire theater industry, it seemed then, was entranced. The lingo, the faces, the concerns – all seemed, if not entirely authentic, then at least clever enough to create some backstage buzz. Even with the series’ quick decline in quality and ratings, [...]

가트너 “엔비디아, 삼성·인텔 제치고 글로벌 반도체 매출 1위”

가트너 “엔비디아, 삼성·인텔 제치고 글로벌 반도체 매출 1위”

가트너에 따르면 2024년 전 세계 반도체 매출은 총 6,559억 달러로, 2023년(5,421억 달러) 대비 21% 증가했다. 이는 지난 2월 발표된 예비 조사 전망치보다 각각 약 300억 달러, 3% 증가한 수치다. 반도체 공급업체 순위도 예비 조사 전망치와 비교해 변동이 있었다. 최종 조사 결과에 따르면, 엔비디아가 사상 처음으로 삼성전자와 인텔을 제치고 1위에 올랐다. 엔비디아는 지난해 매출 766억 9,200만 달러로 전년보다 120% 급증했다.반면 기존 1위였던 인텔은 2024년 498억 달러 매출을 기록해 2023년 대비 0.8% 성장하는 데 그쳤다. 삼성전자는 656억 9,700만 달러로 2023년(400억 8,600만 달러) 대비 60.8% 성장률을 기록했다. 또한 2023년 230억 7,700만 달러로 6위였던 SK하이닉스가 지난해 91.5%(441억 8,600만 달러) 성장해 4위에 올라섰다. 메모리 평균판매가격 상승과 AI 애플리케이션용 고대역폭메모리(HBM) 분야의 선도적인 입지 덕분인 것으로 해석된다. 퀄컴, 브로드컴, 마이크론테크놀로지, AMD, 애플, 미디어텍이 반도체 부문에서 하이닉스의 뒤를 이었다.가트너 VP 애널리스트 가우라브 굽타는 “지난해 상위 10개 반도체 벤더의 매출 순위 변동은 AI 인프라 구축 수요의 급증과 메모리 매출이 73.4% 증가한 데 따른 것”이라고 설명했다.이어 그는 “엔비디아는 데이터센터의 AI 워크로드에 주로 사용되는 dGPU(discrete Graphic Processing Unit)에 대한 수요가 급증하면서 1위로 도약했다. 삼성전자는 수급 불균형에 따른 급격한 가격 반등으로 DRAM과 플래시 메모리 분야 모두에서 상승세를 보이며 2023년에 이어 2위 자리를 유지했다. 인텔은 주요 제품군 전반에서 경쟁이 심화되고, AI 프로세싱 수요의 견조한 증가의 수혜를 충분히 누리지 못해 2024년 매출 성장이 0.8%에 그쳤다”라고 분석했다[email protected]

Apple is left without a life raft as Trump's China trade war intensifies, analysts warn

Apple is heavily reliant on China, which has seen its tariff rates continue to ramp up to a cumulative 145%. While the company has been working to diversify its supply chains, analysts say its left without any clear short-term options to quickly reduce tariff impacts. Though U.S. President Donald Trump’s 90-day pause on many of his “reciprocal tariffs” has given some firms and investors respite, America’s largest company, Apple, hasn’t been so lucky. The Cupertino-based tech giant is heavily reliant on supply chains in China, which has seen its tariff rates only continue to ramp up, with the U.S.’ cumulative tariff rate on Chinese goods now standing at 145%.Thus, despite the U.S. tariff situation looking more promising for the world, experts say that U.S.-China negotiations remain the primary variable for Apple.“Apple could be set back many years by these tariffs,” Dan Ives, global head of technology research at Wedbush Securities, told CNBC, adding that the company had “had their boat flipped over in the ocean with no life rafts.”The smartphone maker has been diversifying its supply chain from China for years, but out of the 77 million iPhones it shipped to the U.S. last year, nearly 80% came from China, according to data from Omdia. The tech-focused research firm estimates that under current tariffs, Apple could be forced to increase its prices on phones sold to the U.S. from China by around 85% in order to maintain its margins.“When the original China tariffs were at 54%, that kind of impact was serious, but manageable ... but, it wouldn’t make financial sense for Apple to raise prices based on the current tariffs,” said Le Xuan Chiew, research manager at Omdia.Few optionsApple reportedly shipped 600 tons of iPhones, or as many as 1.5 million units, from India to the U.S. before the new U.S. tariffs took effect, according to Reuters and The Times of India.Apple and two of its iPhone producers did not respond to a CNBC inquiry. Chiew said while this news is unconfirmed, stockpiling would’ve been the best option for the company to quickly mitigate the tariff impacts and buy themselves some time. However, it’s not clear how long such stockpiles could last, especially as consumers increase iPhone purchases in anticipation of higher prices, he added. According to Omdia, Apple’s medium-term strategy has been to reduce exposure to geopolitical and tariff-related risks, and it has appeared to focus on increasing iPhone production and exports from India. Trump’s temporary halt will likely push tariffs on India to a baseline of 10% — at least for now — giving it a more favorable entry into the U.S. However, the build-up of iPhone manufacturing in India has been a yearslong process. Indian iPhone manufacturers only began producing Apple’s top-of-the-line Pro and Pro Max iPhone models for the first time last year. According to Chiew, ramping up enough production in India to satisfy demand could take at least one or two years and is not without its own tariff risks. Exemptions?In face of the tariffs, experts said the company’s best option is likely to appeal to the Trump administration for a tariff exemption for imports from China as it continues to ramp up its diversification efforts. This is something the company had received during the first Trump administration. Some analysts believe this is something that could happen this time around. “I still see some potential relief that can come in the form of concessions for Apple based upon its $500 billion U.S. commitment,” said Daniel Newman, CEO of The Futurum Group. “This hasn’t been discussed much — but I’m optimistic that companies that commit to U.S. expansion may see some form of relief as negotiations progress.” Apple said in February that it would invest $500 billion in the U.S., creating 20,000 jobs.Still, Trump has been clear that he believes Apple can make iPhones in the U.S.— something analysts have expressed doubts about. Wedbush analyst Ives has predicted that an iPhone would cost $3,500 if it was produced in the U.S. Meanwhile, other analysts say that even a trade deal or tariff exemption may not be enough for Apple to avoid adverse business effects.“Let’s assume that there is at least some thaw coming, either in a moderation of reciprocal tariffs targeting China or in a special exemption for Apple,” said Craig Moffett, co-founder and senior analyst at equity research publisher MoffettNathanson.“That still wouldn’t solve the problem. Even a 10% baseline tariff poses an enormous challenge for Apple.”

세일즈포스 기고 |AI 에이전트 기반 혁신의 열쇠는 ‘CIO 리더십’

전 세계 기업이 AI 에이전트의 등장으로 인한 업무 환경과 비즈니스 모델 변화에 주목하고 있다. AI 에이전트는 인간의 개입 없이 복잡한 문제를 해결하고 최적의 패턴을 추론하는 역량을 갖추고 있다. 기업들이 단순한 자동화를 넘어 업무 프로세스 혁신을 기대하는 배경이다.하지만 AI 에이전트 기술을 자체적으로 개발·구현하는 것은 쉽지 않다. 복잡한 엔지니어링과 시스템 통합이 필요하며, AI의 최적 성능을 위해 고품질 데이터가 필수적이다. 미국의 대표적인 싱크탱크인 랜드 연구소(RAND Corporation)에 따르면, 기업의 AI 도입 성공률은 20% 미만에 그친다. 실패율이 일반적인 IT 프로젝트보다 두 배 높다. 이는 AI 도입이 신중한 접근이 필요한 과제임을 보여준다.지난 디지털 혁신의 역사가 증명하듯, 기업이 자체적으로 AI 에이전트를 위한 최적의 환경을 마련하는 것은 매우 어려운 일이다. 이에 따라 전 세계 CIO들은 AI 기술을 자체 개발하는 방법을 택하는 대신, 검증된 AI 에이전트 플랫폼을 도입하는 방법을 택하고 있다.이유는 다양하다. 검증된 AI 에이전트 플랫폼을 활용할 경우 기업이 LLM과 데이터를 직접 구축하는 데 필요한 막대한 비용을 절감할 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라, 여러 성공사례들을 기반으로 자사 비즈니스의 목표와 특성에 맞추어 AI 에이전트를 최적화할 수 있다. 즉 글로벌 기업에서 이미 성과를 확인한 AI 에이전트 플랫폼 도입은 비용 효율성을 극대화하면서도 AI 도입 성공 가능성을 높이는 전략적 접근법이 될 수 있다.대표적 사례로 미국 생활가전 브랜드 샤크닌자가 있다. 샤크닌자는 AI 에이전트를 활용하여 24시간 실시간으로 고객의 반품 요청을 처리하고, 제품 추천을 제공하는 등 고객 응대를 자동화하고 있다. 또한, 고객의 구매 이력과 서비스 내역을 분석하여 맞춤형 응대를 제공함으로써, 고객경험 향상과 고객 응대 효율성 개선이라는 두 마리 토끼를 한 번에 잡았다.국제 자동차 프로 레이싱 대회인 F1 또한 AI 에이전트 플랫폼을 기반으로 팬 경험의 개인화는 물론, 스포츠 경험을 개선해 나가고 있다. AI 에이전트를 기반으로 로그인 오류나 스트리밍 문제와 같은 이슈를 실시간으로 해결하고, 데이터를 기반으로 개별 팬들의 특성에 맞는 맞춤형 경험을 제공하고 있다. F1은 AI 에이전트를 기반으로 고객 응답 시간을 80% 단축한 것은 물론, 팬들과의 관계를 더욱 강화하고 있다.곧 AI 에이전트의 혁신이 불러온 성공소식이 우리 기업에서도 들려올 것으로 보인다. 현재 많은 기업들이 AI 에이전트 도입을 검토 및 추진하고 있다.그러나 성공적인 AI 에이전트 도입은 CIO의 올바른 리더십을 근간으로 해야 꽃피울 수 있다. AI 기술 도입은 단순히 기술적 도전만이 아니라, 조직 문화, 변화 관리, 윤리적 문제 해결 등 전방위적인 리더십을 요구하는 매우 복잡한 과제이기 때문이다. 실제로 전 세계에서 신기술과 함께 빠르게 순항하고 있는 기업들의 공통점은 ‘CIO의 리더십’이다.AI 에이전트 시대 CIO의 리더십은 기술 그 자체가 아닌 기술이 창출하는 비즈니스 가치에 집중할 때 빛이 나게 될 것이다. 단순한 기술 도입을 넘어, 조직의 DNA에 AI를 통합하는 전략적 비전을 제시하고, 투자 비용과 리스크를 체계적으로 관리하며, 조직 전체가 이 혁신의 여정에 동참할 수 있는 문화를 조성할 수 있어야 한다.이러한 리더십으로 AI 에이전트 혁신을 주도하는 CIO들을 보유한 조직이야말로 글로벌 경쟁에서 우위를 점하고, 새로운 가치와 기회를 창출할 수 있을 것이다.손부한 대표는 2019년부터 세일즈포스 코리아 비즈니스를 총괄하고 있다[email protected]

Astronomers Think They've Found the Universe's Missing Infrared Light

One of the things about astronomy that captivates me is that for every question we answer, we open up a whole bunch of other questions. Dark matter and dark energy are one such phenomenon that rather continues to confound us. There’s also the mystery of missing infrared light too but a team of astronomers think they may have found it! The team examined a region of sky using the Herschel Space Telescope and, by staking 141 images, found where individual dust-rich galaxies appeared blended together. The galaxies are absorbing starlight and re-emitting infrared radiation, and is this that may well account for the missing light.

Oklahoma woman scammed $1.5m out of elderly women posing as men in fake romances, officials say

Oklahoma woman scammed $1.5m out of elderly women posing as men in fake romances, officials say

In December 2024, Oklahoma officials say Jason Morris convinced his online, elderly girlfriend to send him $120,000 to pay for an oil vessel carrying 700,000 barrels in Alaska he allegedly owned to return to shore. Once the rig returned, she and Morris would move in together.The bank held the funds, according to court documents. Morris instructed the woman to contact her bank and lie to them, saying the funds were for purchasing property and not for the alleged oil tanker.But the bank was right to raise suspicion — officials say there was never an Alaskan oil rig. In fact, they say there was never a Jason Morris.‘Scams that target seniors’Christine Joan Echohawk, a 53-year-old woman from Oklahoma, was allegedly the face behind the screen, scamming the older woman out of hundreds of thousands of dollars and laundering the money.Four different women were scammed out of $1.5 million through Echohawk’s online romance scams between Sept. 30 and Dec. 26, 2024, according to a release from the office of Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond.The women were between the ages of 64 and 79 and all lived outside of Oklahoma.“These types of scams that target seniors are especially egregious,” Drummond said in the release.The attorney general filed charges against Echohawk on Monday for “unlawful use of criminal proceeds and using a computer to violate state statutes,” the release said. Echohawk was sent cash, checks, wired funds and even tens of thousands in Apple gift cards.Authorities say Echohawk laundered the funds through various accounts, converting the money into cryptocurrency and sending those crypto payments to an unidentified suspect.Jason Morris, Edward Lotts and Glenn GoadardThe alleged scams included fake names — such as Edward Lotts and Glenn Goadard — and elaborate backstories explaining the need for loads of cash, according to a probable cause affidavit.Lotts convinced one woman to send more than $600,000 to pay off a debt that would allow $2 million to be released to “him.” When the debt was paid off, Lotts would move in with her, the affidavit stated.The victim sold her paid-off home to send all the money.Goadard contacted another woman claiming to know her since college. The woman was persuaded into paying $250,000 for expenses on a financial portfolio Goadard would send her from Syria.But Echohawk allegedly received all the funds, depositing them into a MidFirst Bank account in which she was the sole signatory, according to the affidavit.The Stillwater MidFirst Bank branch tipped off Drummond’s office in January, suspecting Echohawk of senior-fraud activity after a $120,000 payment from one of the victims was intercepted and held, according to the release. The Consumer Protection Unit subsequently investigated.Confidence/romance crimes and Maurice DeniroDefined as a confidence/romance scheme by the FBI, these crimes occur when an individual believes they are in a relationship — whether family, friend or romantic — and manipulated into sending money, financial or personal information, or items of value to a perpetrator. The FBI Internet Crime Report found more than $600 million was lost in 2023 to confidence/romance crimes alone.Local law enforcement confronted Echohawk about the suspected criminal activity in January, but after a short hiatus she allegedly continued to launder the money.Echohawk was voluntarily interviewed at the Pawnee police department on March 26, an interview she opened with asking if it would “all go away” if she paid back the individuals who sent her money, according to the affidavit.But she then claimed it was her who was in an online relationship, that she was receiving cash, checks, wire transfers and other items since 2023 for an individual under the alias of Maurice Dinero, the affidavit said. Echohawk claimed there were “red flags” about her situation and had concerns she would be arrested.When Echohawk consented to having her purse searched, the affidavit said, there were multiple bank cards associated with accounts she allegedly laundered money through, a MidFirst Bank deposit slip for $110,000 and several Apple gift cards found with the barcodes revealed. There was also $500 in cash, which Echohawk said was from individuals sending money to the alias, but she had not yet deposited.Echohawk faces four counts of unlawful use of criminal proceeds and one count of violating the Oklahoma Computer Crimes Act, which could carry up to 62 years in prison and $260,000 in fines, the release said.She has been held in Pawnee County Jail since Monday, according to Pawnee County Sheriff’s Office records. An attorney was not listed and it’s unclear if she has legal representation.“I applaud the work of my Consumer Protection Unit to fight for these victims and to hold accountable their alleged perpetrator,” Drummond said in the release.This story first appeared on NBCNews.com.

Report: Apple is prepping a giant folding iPad for release next year

MacworldWhile everyone is waiting to see just how different the iPhone 17 lineup will be, an analyst with a decent track record has a prediction for next year–not one, but two folding devices from Apple.While we’ve already heard rumors that a folding phone is nearing release, GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu reports that Apple is planning to launch a 19-inch folding iPad later next year. As spotted by 9to5Mac, Pu says the so-called iPad Fold will launch alongside the folding iPhone next year.This is somewhat contradictory to a report earlier this week by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, in which he reported that 2027 would be the year Apple launched its first folding iPhone to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the iPhone, similar to how Apple launched the iPhone X to mark the 10th anniversary.According to Pu, the folding phone will open to a 7.8-inch display, while the folding iPad will have a massive 18.8-inch display. That’s significantly larger than the largest tablet Apple currently offers, which tops out at 13 inches. A near-19-inch iPad would fold down to a device about the size of the iPad Pro.That sounds similar to a rumor floated by Gurman last year, who wrote that Apple was working on “something akin to a giant iPad that unfolds into the size of two iPad Pros side-by-side.” However, he said at the time that the device wouldn’t be ready for launch until 2028.Whichever report you choose to believe–for the record, Gurman has a better track record than Pu but both have had more accurate predictions than not–it seems as though Apple’s first folding screens are on the way.

8.6% SALES INCREASE IN THE FIRST QUARTER - FIVE ACQUISITIONS SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE 2025 FISCAL YEAR

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE FIRST QUARTER ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2025Sales of $441.7 million, up by 8.6%, driven equally by internal growth and acquisitions.In Canada, sales reached $241.6 million, up 4.1%.In the United States, sales totalled US$139.8 million, up 7.6%, representing 45% of total sales.EBITDA of $42.4 million, up 5.0% - EBITDA margin of 9.6%.Net income attributable to shareholders of $13.9 million, or $0.25 per diluted share.Solid financial position as of February 28, 2025 - working capital of $613.2 million - ratio of 2.9:1.Expansion: five new acquisitions since the beginning of the fiscal year, including one after the end of the first quarter, representing approximately $50 million in annual sales.Quarterly dividend of $0.1533 per share payable on May 8, 2025 to shareholders of record as at April 24, 2025.MONTREAL, April 10, 2025 /CNW/ - (TSX: RCH) "Richelieu has strongly started the 2025 fiscal year with five new acquisitions and an 8.6% increase in sales. This result is all the more appreciable given that the first quarter is historically the weakest period of the year and the renovation market conditions remained relatively stagnant during the period. Our market development initiatives, combined with contributions from acquisitions, the diversification of our market segments, and our added value of our service offering, contributed to this performance. We made significant progress in the manufacturers' market, where sales grew by 9.9%, including 5.1% internal growth, reaching $385.1 million. In the hardware retailers and renovation superstores market, sales remained stable compared to Q1 2024, at $56.6 million. We are currently making significant investments to install new in-store displays and add new product lines in order to boost sales to retail customers. We see these initiatives are starting to bear fruit, with sales growth in this market in Canada.""I am also pleased with of our recent acquisitions completed since the beginning of the year: The acquisition of Mill Supply, which operates two centres in the Maritime provinces—one in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, and the other in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. This acquisition strengthens our presence in this market and complements our two existing centres in Dartmouth. In fact, it had long been one of our priorities. The acquisition of Darant Distributing allows us to enter the strategic Colorado market. Midwest Specialty Products reinforces our presence in the Minneapolis area, where we are already established, while also adding product lines such as quartz and other decorative surfaces. Modulex Partition, a distributor of Division 10 products, enables us to expand our presence in these product categories in the strategic markets of New Jersey and the Greater New York area. Finally, the acquisition of Rhoads & O'Hara Architectural, a specialist in exclusive architectural panels, working closely with architects, designers, and high-end commercial woodworking.""Despite the headwinds expected from the tariffs imposed by the US government, Richelieu is well-positioned to navigate these changes, with less than 20% of its products imported from China to the U.S. where alternative products are already sourced from other countries," mentioned Mr. Richard Lord, President and Chief Executive Officer.EXPANSION: ACQUISITIONS AND CONSOLIDATION OF CENTRESDuring the first quarter, Richelieu completed the following acquisitions:Mill Supply, on December 1, 2024, in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia and Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island;Darant Distributing, on January 6, 2025, in Denver, Colorado;Midwest Specialty Products, on January 13, 2025, in Minneapolis, Minnesota; andModulex Partition on February 4th, in Hillside, New Jersey.Subsequent to the first quarter, on April 1st, 2025, Richelieu completed the acquisition of Rhoads & O'Hara Architectural Products, a distributor of architectural panels and related products, in Vineland, New Jersey.These new acquisitions not only add approximately $50 million in annual sales, but also enhance the Corporation's presence in strategic markets, diversify its product offering, and create new synergies.In addition, during the quarter, to meet the needs of future growth and continue to deliver top-tier customer service, the Corporation completed its project to consolidate two distribution centres in the Vancouver area into a single 140,000 sq. ft. facility serving the manufacturers' market.RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2025For the first quarter ended February 28, 2025, consolidated sales amounted to $441.7M, compared to $406.9M for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $34.8M, or 8.6%, driven equally by internal growth and acquisitions. In currency comparable to that of the first quarter of 2024, the increase in consolidated sales would have been 5.6% for the quarter ended February 28, 2025.The following table provides an overview of Richelieu's sales in its two main markets for the quarters ended February 28, 2025 and February 29 2024 :Full story available on Benzinga.com
