英國央行首席經濟學家皮爾：我個人認爲需要將銀行利率上調至4%。

WALLER said Fed chair KEVIN WARSH has allowed "perfect" to become the enemy of "good".

Australia's remote Beetaloo basin is emerging as a focus of Asian energy-security planning. Current output is minimal; developers estimate technically recoverable gas of about 200 tcf, a scale comparable to the US Marcellus. Recent Middle East fighting and restricted Strait of Hormuz transit have disrupted Qatari LNG—roughly 6 mln t/month reportedly missing—tightening the Asian spot market. Australian LNG shipments do not rely on Hormuz and are closer to major Asian buyers, increasing their strategic value. Even if regional tensions ease, the shock is likely to accelerate Asian supply diversification; Asian gas demand is expected to rise about 30% over the next decade. Market impact will hinge on Beetaloo's development pace, export infrastructure and cost competitiveness.
