The Biden administration is considering revoking export licenses issued to U.S. suppliers for sales to Chinese telecom company Huawei Technologies Co., according to people familiar with the matter, part of a broader tightening of technology trade over national security concerns. The administration previously indicated that it was considering not granting any new export licenses to companies such as Qualcomm Inc. and Intel Corp., which provide chips needed for smartphones and other devices. The action would cover products that use advanced 5G technology as well as older 4G products.

WASHINGTON—The Commerce Department on Tuesday kicked off the application process for semiconductor manufacturing subsidies under the $53 billion Chips Act, along with conditions aimed at advancing some of the Biden administration’s priorities. The program serves as a test of Washington’s ability to invigorate and chart a future course for the semiconductor industry that was forged in the U.S. but in recent years has moved much of its manufacturing overseas.
On Monday, another suspected Palestinian shooting attack in the West Bank critically wounded one person, emergency services said. "It's now in his interest to show that he is clamping down on this kind of settler violence." "The U.S administration, which fosters this government, must end all these crimes," said the spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. "One can see the Aqaba summit as a parable: the Americans announce that Israel has promised to freeze settlement construction, which Netanyahu then denies. "On the eve of the election Netanyahu was pondering the legacy he will have when he is reelected prime minister.
Chip makers are abuzz about the latest hot-thing in tech: artificial-intelligence tools that generate text with minimal prompting, require massive computing power to run and promise a lucrative new revenue stream. For semiconductor makers, the new tools, if widely adopted, could result in tens of billions of dollars in net annual sales, analysts estimate.
LONDON—Europe’s defense contractors are boosting orders and enjoying surging stock market valuations, lifted by higher government spending and the expectation of more sales to come as the Ukraine war grinds on. BAE Systems PLC, Europe’s largest defense contractor, was the latest in a parade of big arms makers to post a large jump in annual orders for 2022. It joined peers such as Sweden’s Saab AB and Norway’s Kongsberg Gruppen ASA in benefiting from generally higher military spending around the world—particularly from some European countries—amid the Ukraine war.

An Intel facility. The company says adjusted cash flow in the first six months of the year would fall short of expectations. Intel Corp. said it would cut its dividend to conserve cash as the chip maker tries to balance the financial impact of an aggressive expansion plan with the hit from a near-term demand slump. The payout reduction by two-thirds to 50 cents annually would help the company make investments to transform itself during the current period of economic uncertainty, Intel said. The company’s annual dividend hasn’t been that low since 2007, when it was 45 cents.

We have some oil blocks available and we came here hoping to attract Indian investments," Aidoo told Reuters after a meeting with Indian oil minister Hardeep Singh Puri at India Energy Week. He said Ghana will award exploration licences through direct negotiations if Indian companies are interested. Apart from offering exploration opportunities, Ghana is also seeking Indian support to build refineries of about 300,000 barrels per day.
One of the really interesting questions here – this will be fascinating – the core of linear TV is sports rights. When you look at the size and scope of the linear TV business, it's huge. Patrick T. Fallon | Afp | Getty ImagesByron Allen, Entertainment Studios founder and CEO: I think linear TV will exist for a very, very long time. Simmons: I believe Apple, out of nowhere, will start making their own awesome televisions that have Apple TV embedded in them. We are witnessing early stages of this dynamic with deals like "NFL Sunday Ticket" on YouTube and the MLS deal with Apple TV.
The Computer Chip Wars: How AMD Ended Intel's Market Dominance Intel has ruled the market for central processing units since the 1980s.

AP Photo/Richard Drew, FileTrump is no longer a Washington outsiderIn 2016, Trump was a novelty to many Republican voters. And in recent months, DeSantis has increasingly eclipsed Trump as the top presidential choice among GOP primary voters.

Executives in North Sea companies have urged the British government to introduce a price floor to mitigate the impact of the windfall tax as firms struggle to access new funding. Industry group OEUK said in response to Harbour's announcement that the windfall tax will further undercut spending. Companies including Shell Plc (SHEL.L) and Equinor ASA (EQNR.OL) have already said they will review their North Sea investments.
PORT OF SPAIN, Jan 16 (Reuters) - Trinidad and Tobago plans an auction this quarter of up to 20 offshore natural gas exploration blocks under new fiscal terms designed to increase the pool of potential bidders, people familiar with the matter said. The Caribbean nation has been working to stem a decline in its natural gas output and to spur exploration in its shallow waters, where almost all of its natural gas is produced. The new fiscal terms and a plan to provide seismic data aim to lure new bidders, the people said. Trinidad and Tobago has a natural gas deficit of 25% of its installed processing capacity, with daily production of just under 3 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) leading to a shortfall in LNG and petrochemical production.

Only in the past two years has the U.S. fully grasped that semiconductors are now as central to modern economies as oil. In the digitizing world, power tools commonly come with Bluetooth chips that track their locations. Appliances have added chips to manage electricity use. In 2021, the average car contained about 1,200 chips worth $600, twice as many as in 2010.
