Foxconn reported first‑quarter revenue of T$2.13 trillion (≈$66.6 billion), a 29.7% year‑over‑year increase, driven by strong AI‑related product demand. March alone set a record with revenue of T$803.7 billion (≈$25.1 billion), up 45.6% YoY, while the company warned of geopolitical headwinds.
BP announced suspension of its share buyback program and raised its cost‑cutting target by $1.5 billion, aiming for $5.5‑$6.5 billion of savings by 2027 to fund oil production.

Analysts view the shift as a retreat from the 2020 green‑energy strategy, with renewable spending cut by more than $5 billion. The news sent BP shares down 5.2% and nudged the FTSE lower.
