After arriving in Venezuela, US Energy Secretary Wright stated that relevant agreements to be signed in Caracas by U.S. and other international oil companies will drive Venezuela's crude oil production to more than double over the next few years. Venezuela's crude oil output once topped 3 million barrels per day in the late 1990s, but has since fallen sharply due to underinvestment, mismanagement, and U.S. sanctions. In recent months, the country's crude oil production has hovered around 1.1 to 1.2 million barrels per day. Wright said the investments tied to these deals will "significantly boost" available oil supplies, exerting downward pressure on oil prices. He also noted that the biggest bottleneck for current gasoline and diesel prices is refining capacity. Wright added that thanks to the Trump administration's measures to relax refinery regulations, U.S. gasoline prices are expected to decline in the coming weeks. (Jinshi)

TD Cowen analyst Lance Vitanza has set Bitcoin’s year-end 2026 target price at $97,500, representing roughly 25% upside from its recent level of around $78,000. Meanwhile, TD Cowen cut its prior year-end 2026 base forecast of ~$140,000 to ~$100,000, and significantly lowered its previously more optimistic long-term outlook. Vitanza noted the revision stems primarily from recent Bitcoin price weakness, not a deterioration in company fundamentals or market structure. Currently, BTC trades in a recent range of approximately $58,400 to $78,000, with a maximum drawdown of over 50% from its prior peak above $126,000, and monthly drawdown once exceeded 20%. A clearer regulatory landscape and inclusion in broader indices remain TD Cowen’s identified potential catalysts for market recovery. For Strategy, TD Cowen trimmed its target price from $400 to $260 but retained a "Buy" rating. The adjustment is driven by the downward revision to Bitcoin’s price forecast, not a change in views on Strategy’s operational performance or capital structure. Separately, TD Cowen initiated coverage on Strive, projecting the firm will hold over 27,100 BTC cumulatively by the end of 2026, and assigned a $32 target price, implying roughly 33% upside.

Beating AI Express: Alibaba’s Qwen has upgraded its flagship model Qwen3.8-Max, which was launched just one month ago, to Qwen3.8-Max-0902. The parameter scale remains unchanged at 2.4 trillion parameters with a 1 million-token context window. This upgrade focuses on post-training for coding and collaboration, with a priority on improving programming, complex workflows, and long-horizon agent tasks. In Alibaba’s published comparison table, the 0902 version outperforms the original in all 8 programming benchmarks. Specific improvements include: TerminalBench 3.0 rising from 11.3 to 29.0, DeepSWE 1.1 from 56.6 to 69.3, QwenSWEbench V2 from 55.1 to 70.0, and professional task benchmark JobBench from 53.4 to 64.0. Compared with Claude Opus 5, Qwen3.8-Max-0902 still lags in most programming projects, but surpasses the competitor in three benchmarks: MLS-Bench-Lite, SWE-Atlas QnA, and QwenSWEbench V2. The four multimodal benchmarks only saw gains of 0.4 to 3 points over the original, making it clear that this upgrade’s core focus is enhancing the model’s coding and task execution capabilities for agents. All the above results are currently Alibaba’s internal tests. Qwen3.8-Max-0902 is now available on the QwenCloud API, with pricing unchanged: $2 per 1 million input tokens and $6 per 1 million output tokens.
