Tom Werner/DigitalVision via Getty Images By Carsten Brzeski , Global Head of Macro German industrial production weakened further in March as the war in the Middle East started to take its toll. The just-released industrial data for March illustrate the struggle of German industry to gain momentum in the first quarter of the year. Not only was the February drop revised downwards, with a 0.7% month-on-month decline in March, but industrial production in the full first quarter was more than 1% weaker than in the final quarter of 2025. The March drop was mainly driven by falling production in manufacturing. On a more positive note, activity in the construction sector rebounded somewhat in March. At the same time, export growth slowed to 0.5% MoM, from 4.7% in February. As imports surged once again, this time by more than 5% MoM, the trade surplus narrowed significantly, to the lowest level since November last year. Downward revision of first quarter growth has become more likely The German economy surprisingly showed a positive performance in the first quarter, growing by 0.3% quarter-on-quarter. Against this background, this morning’s industrial data is even more of a look in the rearview mirror than normal. Still, the fourth consecutive month without growth in industrial production provides at least two important insights into the German economy: As industrial production is down on the quarter and the trade surplus narrowed significantly in March, a downward revision to the first estimate of first-quarter GDP growth has become likely. It needs at least 1% growth in the second quarter to bring industrial production back into positive territory. A development that currently looks unlikely. Outlook has clearly worsened once again Looking ahead, not only has the outlook for German industry – and for the entire economy – worsened again, but the war in the Middle East and soaring energy prices have again exposed the fact that Germany is one of Europe’s largest net importer...

Political Warfare? Advocacy Group With Ties To Lefty Unions Targets SpaceX IPO The SOC Investment Group is a union-aligned shareholder advocacy organization formerly known as CtW Investment Group. It works with union-sponsored pension funds to mount pressure campaigns against public companies. SOC's latest pressure campaign appears to target Elon Musk's SpaceX in an attempt to delay or derail the upcoming IPO. The union-affiliated pension fund adviser, linked to the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) - a labor union that has supported the left-wing, billionaire-funded " No Kings " protest against President Trump... ... has asked regulators to review the accuracy and reliability of SpaceX's financials, ensure auditor independence, and examine accounting around transactions with other Elon Musk-linked companies, including xAI and Tesla. The InfluenceWatch database via Capital Research Center shows SOC's ties with lefty unions... To note, SOC is weirdly obsessed with unhinged globalist ESG investment activism that damaged the U.S. economy during the Biden-Harris regime years. SOC warned that investors could be exposed to SpaceX, whose valuation may decline once its financial disclosures are independently reviewed. Oddly enough, SOC is not a SpaceX shareholder but has previously pushed governance pressure campaigns at major companies, including Tesla. "We are specifically concerned that SpaceX's IPO will expose numerous investors, many unwillingly, to a company whose value may decline once its financial disclosures can be independently assessed and verified," the letter said . SpaceX is preparing to go public in less than two months, and SOC's letter to regulators appears intended to create regulatory friction with the SEC over what could become the largest IPO in history. The timing is very notable. A successful SpaceX IPO at a multi-trillion-dollar valuation could dramatically expand Elon Musk's wealth and power, potentially transforming him into the world's...

Gary Yeowell/DigitalVision via Getty Images trivago N.V. ( TRVG ) could be an attractive turnaround investment opportunity. The hotel price comparison platform's previous troubles have subsided through a shift to brand marketing that seems to be working out well. Earnings are improving, and trivago's strong balance sheet already includes net cash that covers most of the company's market cap. Due to previous issues, trivago stock's history isn't pretty. The stock has lost nearly all of its value during the past decade, leaving the stock with a very cheap valuation. Seeking Alpha A Brief Introduction to trivago & Its Recent Years’ Performance trivago is an online hotel search and price comparison platform. In essence, when a tourist wants to find a hotel and the best price for that hotel for a trip, trivago compares different travel agencies’ prices and refers the tourist to that agency. trivago partners with online travel agencies like Booking Holdings Inc. ( BKNG ) and Expedia Group, Inc. ( EXPE ), and generates revenues primarily through referral income. The company’s most important market is Developed Europe, meanwhile Americas make up another significant market. The rest of the world generates meaningful revenues as well but isn’t as important. TRVG Q1'26 Investor Presentation The past few years haven’t been pretty for trivago as revenues started to trend downward from 2018 forward. Reduced bidding intensity by booking agencies resulted in fewer qualified referrals even before Covid started, and similar pressure has echoed in more recent years as well. More recently, trivago failed to regain revenues in 2023 and 2024 alongside the travel industry as Covid started to subside, as Google’s ( GOOG ) ad format change impaired trivago’s search visibility and the performance marketing channel’s competition intensified. TRVG Q1'26 Investor Presentation trivago’s reliance on Google essentially hampered the company’s performance. Competitor Tripadvisor, Inc. ( TRIP ) manag...

Luis Alvarez/DigitalVision via Getty Images The Market Ignores GCT's Success... For Now Since I upgraded my investment rating on GigaCloud Technology Inc. ( GCT ) stock back in July 2024 , the price has managed to rise by ~35%, similar to the S&P 500's move-up for the same period. However, since 2024, GigaCloud has significantly scaled its GMV and overall operations, and the recently released Q1 2026 earnings results once again proved my core bullish stance on the stock. The market seems to be ignoring GCT's success right now because the stock hasn't moved much on its strong double-beating and generally positive guidance. I think such deviations shouldn't last long. Assuming that GCT keeps executing on its plan as it did throughout the past few years, and with the buybacks in place, I believe the market is likely to adjust the stock price to the upside eventually. Let's take a look at the latest earnings . GigaCloud showed total revenues of $359.5 million (+32.2% YoY) with gross profit expanding by 34.7% YoY (~$85.8 million) and adjusted diluted EPS coming in at $1.24 (+49.4% YoY). On the top and bottom lines, the firm has beaten the consensus estimates by ~5% and 27.35%, respectively, according to Seeking Alpha . Seeking Alpha, GCT's Q1 press release Despite the fears that some analysts had initially regarding the GMV dynamics (Gross Merchandise Value in this case), GCT's core GigaCloud Marketplace saw its GMV hit $1.66 billion on a TTM basis - compared to last year, it's a solid 17.5% increase. Importantly, what kept the gross margins in great shape is the rise of the 3P seller GMV that added 23.7% YoY and reached ~$908.6 million. 3Ps are now over 54% of the whole GMV pie, and it has room for further revenue share mix expansion, in my view, because the number of active 3P sellers went up by 19.3% to 1,377 (it's still a low base to work with), and active buyers were up 25.2% to 12,473 ( both sides are expanding, which is great to see). The key unit economics metric...

Earnings Call Insights: Kinetik (KNTK) Q1 2026 Management View "Kinetik delivered record earnings in the first quarter," said CEO Jamie Welch, adding, "We've seen strong conversion of opportunities into new and amended agreements across both Texas and New Mexico" (President, CEO & Director Jamie Welch). Welch highlighted a major New Mexico amendment: "a significant contract amendment with a large existing customer in New Mexico that expands the original dedicated acreage by roughly 25%... and extends terms through 2039," and he said "approximately 75% of legacy Durango gas processing volumes have now been amended over the past four months" (President, CEO & Director Welch). On potential New Mexico processing growth, Welch said the sour conversion progress and contract actions have created "strong commercial momentum in support of potentially advancing a processing capacity expansion at Kings Landing complex" (President, CEO & Director Welch). Welch emphasized capital-efficient power demand linkages: "We signed a zero CapEx interconnection with Pecos Power" and framed it as "a fee-based template for monetizing our existing footprint as Permian power generation demand grows" (President, CEO & Director Welch). CFO Trevor Howard reported record profitability and cash generation: "First quarter adjusted EBITDA of $251 million was a quarterly record," and "Distributable cash flow totaled $181 million and free cash flow was $101 million" (Senior VP & CFO Trevor Howard). Howard tied the quarter to basis-driven marketing strength: "Spread-based marketing gains have more than offset approximately 170 million cubic feet per day of Waha price-related production shut-ins in the quarter" (Senior VP & CFO Howard). Outlook Howard reaffirmed full-year guidance: "We are affirming our 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance range of $950 million to $1.05 billion" (Senior VP & CFO Howard). Howard disclosed a key assumption change behind the reaffirmation: "We now forecast low to mid-single-digit...
