影片流媒體默默縮短院線電影等待時間

Reported 4 months ago

在2024年的前四個月,院線獨家仍穩定:院線電影首映日後約30天即可在PVOD上看到,與去年相同。然而,隨著追蹤院線、PVOD和流媒體生命周期,我們發現一個新趨勢:院線和流媒體之間的差距正在縮小。2024年前兩個月,院線開映日與流媒體首播之間的平均間隔僅為68天,而在2023年同一時期為90天。每一部2024年前四個月的廣泛發行影片現在都可以在家中觀賞,甚至即將推出。與院線和PVOD之間的30天平均間隔現在看來是一種標準,並且在不確定的行業中任何穩定性都是受歡迎的。然而,流媒體的發展加速對院線來說是個壞消息。

US一季度GDP增長速度低於初步預測

Reported 4 months ago

美國經濟在第一季度的增長速度低於初步預測。美國經濟分析局對第一季度美國國內生產總值(GDP)的第二預估顯示,經濟在該時期以1.3%的年化速度增長,低於4月份1.6%的初步數據,與經濟學家的預測相符。第一季度的個人消費增長為2%,低於之前的2.5%。頭條GDP增長的減速引發市場對經濟過熱的擔憂,因為通脹證明比預期更頑強。然而,許多預測人士不認為第一季度的經濟增長放緩是更廣泛趨勢的開端。高盛集團預計第二季度將增長3.2%,而亞特蘭大聯儲的GDPNow預測者目前預計第二季度增長3.5%。
