On March 29th, it was learned from the Beijing Financial Regulatory Bureau that Beijing has taken the lead nationwide in launching the development and application of commercial insurance products for intelligent connected new energy vehicles. The new products largely follow the existing new energy commercial vehicle insurance system, adhering to the principle of "overall stability with partial optimization." They primarily provide risk protection for specific intelligent driving scenarios and software/hardware losses that are of concern to consumers and automakers, and can be uniformly adapted to all levels of intelligent connected new energy vehicles from L2 to L4. For example, existing car insurance products mainly define drivers based on the basic scenario of "human driving," which is not fully applicable to L3 and L4 level "human-machine co-driving" or "machine driving" scenarios. Furthermore, for L2 level assisted driving vehicles, some consumers upgrade their assisted driving systems at their own expense after purchasing a new car, but existing car insurance products do not cover this portion of the loss, requiring further optimization.According to Iranian state media, Iranian Parliament Speaker Qaribaf stated that the United States talks about negotiations in public but is secretly planning a ground offensive.On March 29, local time, a U.S. military KC-135R aerial refueling tanker encountered an emergency during a mission and was forced to return to Tel Aviv, Israel.The Israel Defense Forces have detected another ballistic missile launch by Iran.

Oracle Sales And Earnings Exceed Forecasts Amid Cloud Surge

Oracle Corp surpassed Wall Street projections for quarterly profit and sales on Monday, as demand for its cloud products surged in tandem with the industry-wide transition to cloud-based systems.


In extended trading, shares of the Austin, Texas-based corporation whose fourth-quarter sales increased by 5 percent soared by almost 12 percent.


Safra Catz, chief executive officer of Oracle (NYSE:ORCL), stated in a statement, "We think this revenue growth increase signals that our infrastructure business has entered a hyper-growth period."


Oracle, which projected a currency headwind of 5% in the fourth quarter, up from 2% to 3% in the third quarter, forecasts significant revenue growth in its cloud business despite growing inflation and a higher dollar.


Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) in April and Salesforce (NYSE:CRM) Inc in May signaled a solid future for the cloud industry as corporations raise expenditure, but Microsoft reduced its fourth-quarter profit and sales prediction earlier this month owing to unfavorable currency exchange rates.


Oracle predicted a quarterly loss of $100 million in fiscal year 2023 due to the suspension of services in Russia.


However, the business anticipates first-quarter sales growth between 17 and 18 percent, thanks to its $28 billion purchase of healthcare IT provider Cerner Corp. (NASDAQ:CERN).


Oracle's prediction was released on a day when U.S. stock markets plummeted, with the S&P 500 confirming it was in a bear market, as investors feared that aggressive interest rate rises by the Federal Reserve may drive the country into recession.


The business anticipates adjusted first-quarter EPS between $1.04 and $1.08, compared to the average analyst expectation of $1.13.


According to IBES statistics from Refinitiv, revenue for the fourth quarter ended May 31 increased to $11.84 billion, above analysts' average forecast of $11.66 billion.


Excluding adjustments, the company's earnings per share were $1.54, above analysts' predictions of $1.37.
