SINGAPORE, May 18, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Want to rebuild your savings while carrying an existing debt? It can be overwhelming, but it is possible. The common belief is that one must eliminate all debt before saving again, but this could not be further from reality. Both goals can be managed together, even with monthly bills, Equated Monthly Instalments (EMIs) and everyday expenses competing for your income.A balanced approach to savings can reduce financial stress, help to stay prepared for emergencies and move steadily towards long-term stability. Some short-term options to help paying off debt include a Balance Transfer, Personal Loan or a credit line. Choosing the suitable Balance Transfer option available can help lower interest costs and make repayment more manageable.Wondering how? Read along to find out.Get a clear picture of your current financesBefore creating an aggressive savings plan or an unrealistic debt payment plan that will soon drain you, it is important to understand where your money is going. As a first step, list all your outstanding debts, including credit cards, personal loans or education loans, along with their respective interest rates and required minimum payments. While doing this, also consider your monthly income and essential expenses to understand the flexibility you have.Budget for both goalsRebuilding your savings starts with setting a well-structured budget. Many people often allocate every bit of extra money towards debt repayment, which is why they fail to rebuild their savings. Allocate specific portions to both savings and debt reduction, striking a balance that ensures you do not feel financially insecure while you work towards freedom from debt. Over time, your budget can be adjusted as debts reduce and your financial confidence grows.Start with an emergency fundAn emergency fund protects you from unexpected expenses that could push you further into debt. This fund helps cover medical emergencies, urgent travel or sudden job changes/loss, without relying on credit cards or loans. Building this fund steadily, no matter the amount, is more important than trying to save a large sum all at once.Reduce debt while protecting your savingsIf you want to stay consistent with repayments without sacrificing your savings, you must choose the right strategy, which balances interest payment, motivation and cash flow. The right approach depends on whether you want to minimise interest or maintain motivation while saving. The debt avalanche method focuses on the former, while the snowball method helps with the latter.Debt avalanche methodUnder this method, the focus is on paying off debts with the highest interest first, while continuing to make minimum payments on others. This reduces the total interest paid over time, whereby you regain control. This repayment strategy reduces the interest burden and frees up money that can be later redirected towards savings.Debt snowball methodThe snowball method focuses on clearing smaller debts first, focusing on quick wins that result in continued motivation. With each debt cleared, the available amount can be split between savings and the next payment goal.Automate savingsThe temptation to skip saving when expenses rise can be strong; hence, automating your savings is important. For instance, setting up a mandate for automatic transfer of funds to your savings account right after your salary is credited ensures consistency. This helps you maintain steady and growing savings while also staying committed to debt repayment.Cut expenses without feeling restrictedReducing expenses does not require extreme cutbacks. Identify areas where you can make small adjustments that will lead to significant savings. This includes checking for unused subscriptions, planning meals to limit dine-out expenses, and reviewing bills wherever possible. The freed-up money can later be allocated to savings or debt payments.Rebuilding your savings while paying off existing debt is a long-term game of patience, planning and consistency. Start by understanding your finances and then identifying a financial strategy that works best for you. Saving and debt repayment are not competing goals, they can work together to create a secure financial future.Disclaimer: This content is published by iQuanti Singapore Pte Ltd, an external marketer engaged and compensated by UOB Ltd.Contact Information:Name: Sonakshi MurzeEmail: Sonakshi.murze@iquanti.comJob Title: ManagerSOURCE: iQuanti Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

川普表示中國同意每年購買170億美元美國牛肉

18 5 月, 2026 hk_news

(SeaPRwire) - 白宮週日宣佈，中國已同意大幅增加美國農產品貿易，包括牛肉和家禽，承諾每年購買金額達170億美元，2026年達成此規模，並維持至2027年及2028年。這項協議是在總統唐納德·川普於北京一場高風險峰會後兩天宣布，當時他試圖緩和去年由他發動的貿易戰對美國農民造成的衝擊。白宮表示，中國將恢復市場准入，重新進口美國牛肉，並恢復自美國農業部認定無禽流感的州所進口的美國 poultry（家禽）產品。這些協議是在中國去年 soybean（大豆）採購承諾之外的進一步措施。這些協議為受到貿易戰衝擊的美國農民帶來一線希望，因為他們原本的主要出口市場——大豆等農產品的出口——一度大幅縮減。此外，農民還面臨來自川普政府新政策的壓力：美以對伊朗採取軍事行動導致荷姆茲海峽 shipping（航運）受阻，這條重要 trade corridor（貿易通道）限制了全球 fertilizer supplies（肥料供應），使肥料價格飆升。目前尚無北京方面對此協議條款立即確認的消息。週六，中國商務部表示，雙方將「解決或朝著解決 certain non-tariff barriers and market access issues（某些非關稅壁壘及市場准入問題）」方面做出重大進展。一位 ministry spokesperson（部長發言人）指出，美方將「積極努力」處理中方關於 dairy products（乳製品）、seafood（海鮮）、export of potted bonsai（盆栽盆景出口）以及 recognition of Shandong province as a bird-flu-free zone（承認山東省為禽流感免疫區）方面的 concerns（關切）；中方 likewise actively work（同樣積極努力）處理美方關於 beef processing facilities（牛肉加工設施）註冊以及 poultry meat export from certain states to China（從特定州向中國出口禽肉）方面的 concerns。雙方還同意透過互惠 tariff reductions on "a specific range of products"（對特定範圍產品實施相互關稅減讓）等措施擴大 trade，包括 farm goods（農產品）貿易。不過該 spokesperson 並未說明具體涉及哪些產品。 recognizing the link between food security and national security（認識到糧食安全與國家安全之間的聯繫），近年來 increasingly turned to Brazil, Argentina and other countries over the U.S.（ increasingly turned to Brazil, Argentina and other countries over the U.S.）， diversified its sources of imported soybeans, beef and other farm goods。 China sharply cut back US imports during the trade war 根據美國農業部的數據顯示，中國在2022年達到 peak with $38 billion 的 peak import value for U.S. agricultural goods，但到2025年已降至僅80億美元。這其中包含了 nearly $18 billion in soybean purchases in 2022 和 only $3 billion in 2025。目前尚不清楚此舉將對中國 soybean farmers（大豆農民）產生多大影響——他們在此次貿易戰中受損尤其嚴重。作為傳統上 largest foreign buyer of American soybeans（ largest foreign buyer of American soybeans），去年在川普提高 tariffs on Chinese goods（ tariffs on Chinese goods）之後 completely stopped purchasing them altogether（完全停止購買）。最新 agreement builds on a trade truce reached between Trump and Xi Jinping back in October, when China had agreed to resume buying U.S. soybeans. At that time, it was reported that China committed to purchasing 12 million metric tons during the current marketing year and an additional 25 million metric tons for each of the next three years. According to the White House, hundreds of U.S. beef plants—including those run by Tyson and Cargill—will be able to export again to China; however, it is not immediately clear how much beef American businesses will be selling there. Last year, licenses for hundreds of U.S. beef plants expired in China; according to USDA figures, the import value fell below $500 million in 2025. Previously, China’s purchases of U.S. beef had peaked at $2.14 billion in 2022. The U.S. export of poultry meats and products to China was valued at $286 million in 2025, down from more than $1 billion in 2022. Trump and Xi used summit to find areas of economic cooperation During the recent summit, Trump and Xi discussed ways to enhance economic cooperation, including expanding market access for American businesses in China and increasing Chinese investment into U.S. industries, according to the White House. The two leaders agreed to establish separate boards of trade and investment—though few details were offered regarding these proposals or how they would differ from existing trade dialogues. According to the White House, the Board of Trade will allow both governments to manage trade in “non-sensitive goods,” while the Board of Investments will serve as a forum for discussing investment-related issues between both sides. A Ministry of Commerce spokesperson stated that these two bodies would address respective concerns regarding trade and investment. Specifically, the Board of Trade would enable discussions about tariff reductions on specific products. "In principle," said the spokesperson, "both sides agreed to reduce tariffs on products of mutual concern at equivalent scales." Xi Jinping stated last week that China's door of opportunity would open wider when he met with U.S. business leaders accompanying Trump on his trip. Among those who traveled to Beijing was Brian Sikes, CEO of the agricultural giant Cargill. Soybeans—used for livestock feed and biofuels in China—are among the top U.S. agricultural exports. Historically, soybean exports to China accounted for roughly half of total U.S. agricultural exports to the Asian nation. USDA data shows that as of May 7th, the U.S. exported 10.9 million metric tons of soybeans to China—placing China on track to fulfill its previous commitment by August 31st (the end of the marketing year). This figure is significantly lower than the 25–30 million metric tons purchased annually in prior years. Prior to Trump's originally planned late March trip to Beijing—which was postponed due to the Iran conflict—the American Soybean Association urged him to prioritize soybeans in negotiations with Xi Jinping. Scott Metzger, president of the association, said Thursday that the group would like to see "additional soybean purchases this marketing year, as well as continued progress toward fulfilling future purchase commitments." He added, "Greater certainty and consistency in the marketplace help provide farmers with the confidence they need as they make decisions for the year ahead." ___ AP journalist Kevin Vineys contributed to this report.本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Carbonverse Pioneers a New Ecosystem of “Carbon Assets + Digital Wallet + Use-to-Earn”

HONG KONG, May 18, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Recently, Carbonverse Limited and Wanel Capital Limited officially signed a cooperation agreement to establish a joint venture. Centered on three core pillars—carbon assets, digital wallets, and the "use-to-earn" (utility mining) model—the joint venture will integrate technical strengths with real-world scenarios. This initiative aims to drive carbon assets out of the industrial sector and directly into the consumer market, building a future-ready green value ecosystem.Carbonverse possesses mature practices and full-stack capabilities in carbon asset management, green finance scenario implementation, and carbon credit trading. Leveraging this partnership, the platform will further strengthen its digital wallet underlying technology, security systems, and development capabilities, creating an innovative infrastructure that deeply integrates "carbon assets + digital wallets + use-to-earn."Mr. Liang Liang, Chairman of Carbonverse, stated that this collaboration marks a critical milestone in executing the company's core strategy, following the successful completion of Carbonverse's underlying carbon asset layout and strategic tool systems. With carbon assets acting as the core vehicle, the top-level design will systematically dismantle three traditional barriers:- Breaking Scenario Barriers: Moving carbon assets beyond the traditional To-B (Business) and To-G (Government) sectors, allowing them to penetrate the mass consumer (To-C) market. Through the "use-to-earn" model, Carbonverse will cover everyday scenarios such as EV charging, commuting, smart homes, and health appliances, completing a pivotal leap for the carbon economy from industrial markets to consumer markets.- Breaking User Barriers: Building a unified entry point and asset closed-loop via a green digital wallet. This will enable the monetization of user attention and behavioral value, fostering deep integration and seamless value interoperability between the online digital ecosystem and offline private domain users.- Breaking Technology & Ecosystem Barriers: Seizing the historic opportunity where AI reshapes the global industrial landscape to construct a future-proof, three-in-one core competitiveness powered by carbon computing power, attention data, and intelligent operations.Under this strategic framework, the joint venture will leverage the large-scale circulation of carbon assets across online consumer platforms to establish highly efficient pricing and liquidity capabilities.Simultaneously, through innovative operational models—such as use-to-earn mechanisms, carbon blind boxes, and IP co-branded ecosystems—the platform will cultivate high-value, high-stickiness, and high-LTV (lifetime value) user assets. This will establish a virtuous cycle driven by data monetization, attention monetization, time monetization, and community value feedback.Looking ahead, Carbonverse will continue to deepen its strategic tools and ecosystem deployment. By deeply integrating artificial intelligence, Carbonverse aims to make AI a vital engine driving the convergence and innovation of the carbon ecosystem, digital assets, private domain value, and green finance, ultimately expanding its strategic runway for the future.About CarbonverseCarbonverse Limited, a subsidiary of C Dimension, is an innovative platform specializing in carbon asset digitalization and green initiatives. The company is dedicated to driving the transformation of carbon assets from mere compliance tools into premium financial assets, building a next-generation green consumer carbon ecosystem powered by use-to-earn mechanisms, generalized carbon inclusion, and attention monetization.

(SeaPRwire) - 就在美國汽車製造商開始縮減電動車（EV）投資之際，伊朗戰爭導致汽油價格飆升，為中國汽車公司提供了千載難逢的契機。去年12月，福特汽車對其電動車業務進行歷史性減值，計入195億美元虧損，同時宣布取消其全電動F-150皮卡車型的生產計畫，改為開發增程混合動力版本，並全面調整電動車策略。通用汽車（General Motors）亦公布電動車相關總損失達76億美元，放棄原本在密歇根州工廠生產電動車的計畫，轉而製造傳統燃油SUV和皮卡車。福特CEO吉姆·法利（Jim Farley）在12月接受路透社訪問時解釋：「我們無法將資金投入那些無法獲利的事業。儘管我個人非常喜愛這些產品，但美國消費者根本不會願意支付高價購買它們。這就是結局。」當時，美國汽車巨頭的決策看似合理。根據Cox Automotive的數據，在總統唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）取消電動車稅收抵免後，美國第四季電動車銷量同比暴跌36%。加上通脹回升與勞動市場趨軟，消費者普遍對平均售價高達5萬5千美元的電動車望而卻步。然而，自今年2月起由美國與以色列發動的伊朗戰爭，使這一局勢變得更加複雜。截至週日，AAA數據顯示美國全國平均汽油價格已攀升至每加侖4.51美元，較2月底上漲約50%；全球平均油價更高達每加侖5.34美元。這場價格衝擊雖令近期撤出電動車市場的美國車廠陷入困境，卻讓比亞迪（BYD）等中國汽車製造商看到了前所未有的機會。「雖然戰爭極其悲慘，但這或許是中國電動車製造商最幸運的事件之一，」 Sino Auto Insights創辦人兼董事總經理Tu Le在接受採訪時表示。 Arthur D. Little諮詢公司合夥人、美洲 automotive 及 manufacturing 部門主管Joern Buss表示，中國車廠早已為這樣的時機做好準備。追溯至2000年代初期，當時中國在全球汽車產業幾乎無足輕重，國內業者便積極聘請像Buss這樣的顧問，學習如何與西方老牌企業競爭。 Buss回憶道，這些中國車企當時採取了三管齊下的戰略：首先，透過與合資夥伴的合作學習打造高品質車輛；其次，避開傳統內燃機領域，專注於電動車技術以重新定義產業格局；最後，大幅提升設計與生產效率，實現比任何人都快的產品迭代速度。如今，這項戰略成效顯著。2023年，中國本土汽車品牌首次超越大眾（Volkswagen）等西方巨頭，成為中國市場銷量第一。中國如今已是全球最大汽車出口國，並在近年擴大其在歐洲與拉丁美洲的影響力。根據DataForce平台數據，目前在歐洲每十輛新車中，就有一輛是由中國品牌製造。部分增長動力來自中國車款的價格優勢。福特的 cheapest 車款 hybrid Maverick XL 起價為2萬8千美元，而比亞迪在中國 market 的 cheapest 車款——小型掀背車Seagull——售價僅1萬零3百美元（在歐洲與拉丁美洲市場則更高）。不過，亦有批評指出，這些低廉價格可能源於政府補貼所致。《MIT Technology Review》估算，2009年至2022年間，中國政府向本土電動車 manufacturers 提供高達290億美元的稅金減免與補助，尤其在電池領域（電動車成本最高的部分）支持力度最大。然而，自去年起，中國已逐步退場電動車補貼政策。 Responsible Battery Coalition執行主任Steve Christensen等人認為，中國企業的終極目標是 dominating 市場。「中國 companies 不在乎短期 profitability，他們只想要市場 dominance，而且不惜一切手段達成目標。他們是在打一場 winning game，」他說。當然，比亞迪（BYD）、蔚來（NIO）、小鵬（Xpeng）、極氪（Zeekr）與理想（Li Auto）等中國 manufacturers 近年來也快速提升技術水平，包括升級先進駕駛輔助系統、導入AI功能與推動快充技術突破。但美國 government 視中國為本國汽車工業的威脅。總統拜登（Joe Biden）已實施100%關稅 on 進口中國電動車，此政策由特朗普延續至今， effectively preventing 此類 vehicles 進入美國 market。此外，本月由參議員伯尼·莫雷（Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio）與伊麗莎·斯洛坦（Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich.）提出的法案， further proposes to ban 中國 vehicle imports on national security grounds。莫雷在X平台上寫道：「中國正在利用 automobiles 作為 weapon， infiltrating America、destroying our manufacturing base，並 spying on us。」然而，只要燃油價格持續高漲，美國汽車 manufacturers 就越難 justifying 其電動車轉型 strategy。有跡象顯示，油價上漲確實開始改變 consumers 對電動車的態度。雖然4月 new EV 銷售仍下滑，但二手電動車銷量卻同比上升16%，環比增長3%。據Cox Automotive資料，二手電動車平均售價較新車便宜約2萬美元，可能是主因之一。對美國車廠而言，市場趨勢正朝電動車方向轉變，而他們卻在此時 step back。中國 companies 則 poised to capitalize on this shift。「這簡直就是雙重打擊， legacy automakers 真是雪上加霜，」Le 表示。「就像往傷口上灑鹽一樣。」本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。
