美國白宮因上週Colonial Pipeline遭受網路駭客攻擊而在多區宣布進入緊急狀態

美國白宮宣布,美國東部 17 個州及首都所在的華盛頓特區進入緊急狀態,以應對勒索軟體攻擊。上周五 (7 日) ,當地最大的成品油管道營運商 (Colonial Pipeline) 聲稱遭受網路駭客威脅及攻擊,已停運整個管道網路,受此次網路攻擊影響的管道總長約 8,850 公里,每天運輸超過 3.8 億公升的燃料,包括汽油、柴油、航空燃料及其它精煉油品等,佔東海岸約 45%的燃料供應。美國輸油「命脈」被黑客入侵,市場預期美國或需要增加入口海外原油,一度帶動紐約油價上升至約 66 美元水平。

英國下周一進入第三階段放寬防疫措施

英國首相約翰遜宣布,將於下周一(17 日)進入第三階段放寬防疫措施, 市民可參加最多六人或兩個家庭在室內聚會,酒吧、咖啡店及餐廳亦可再次在於內接待顧客,戲院及運動場等室內娛樂場所亦可恢復營運。市場憧憬當地服務業可望進一步復蘇,帶動英鎊匯價逐步挑戰 1.42 美元水平。
