STORY: U.S. stocks ended lower on Thursday, with the Dow dropping nearly two-thirds of a percent, the S&P 500 shedding more than one-third of a percent and the Nasdaq dipping marginally. Uncertainty around peace talks between the U.S. and Iran weighed on the market, with Iran reviewing a proposal that would stop fighting but leave the most contentious issues unresolved. Meanwhile, market-leading chip stocks retreated after their recent rally. :: Arm Holdings Archive U.S.-listed shares of Arm Holdings tumbled 10% as worries about the company's ability to secure sufficient supplies for its new AI chip overshadowed a strong earnings forecast. Intel and Advanced Micro Devices also declined, giving back some of their gains from earlier this week. Keith Buchanan, senior portfolio manager at Globalt Investments, said he'd now like to see a broadening of market gains beyond chip makers and other AI-linked companies. "Leadership has become narrow again. And that's something that concerns us from our framework, is we don't feel like a participation has been what it needs to be to continue to power this bull market forward beyond the point where we are now. So earnings season is really important. We're right in the middle of it right now. So that will give us a little more clarity as to the storylines and, frankly, the momentum that we feel like has to start to spread away from where it's been concentrated over the past week and a half." :: CoreWeave Other stock moves on Thursday included cloud provider CoreWeave, which closed down more than 6% but gained in extended trading after beating analysts' estimates for quarterly revenue. The company reported strong demand for its high-performance computing services used to train and deploy AI models. Shares of Datadog soared 31% after the cloud-monitoring company raised its full-year earnings forecast. Cybersecurity companies CrowdStrike jumped 8% and Palo Alto Networks added 7%. Elsewhere in the market, shares of Whirlpool slumped n...

'Muslim-Only' Water Park Event Canceled By Texas City Authored by Tom Gantert via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), A Texas city that had a Muslim-only celebration scheduled at a city-owned water park has said that the event would be canceled. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott speaks to the media at the Texas Capitol in Austin, Texas, on Aug. 22, 2025. Eric Gay/AP Photo “After further review and in the best interest of the City of Grand Prairie, the June 1 Eid event at Epic Waters Indoor Waterpark has been canceled. No additional comment will be made at this time,” said Eric Alvarez, spokesman for the city of Grand Prairie. Aminah Knight, the organizer of the event, said she was “deeply disappointed” by the event being canceled and had only been informed by a park manager. “What began as a private event for the Muslim community to celebrate Eid in a joyful and modest environment became something much bigger than I ever imagined,” she said in a text message to The Epoch Times. “ The flyer was originally shared within private community spaces, but it was later circulated more broadly by people who were not interested in attending, but rather in creating division and controversy .” Knight said she is going to turn what she called a “painful experience” into “something beautiful” and will host an interfaith event called “The Great American Cookout” on July 4. She said the event would be a place “where people from different backgrounds can come together, connect, and truly get to know one another as Americans.” Texas Gov. Greg Abbott threatened to pull $530,000 in state funding if the city of Grand Prairie allowed the celebration to go on. The event was to celebrate Eid al-Adha, an annual Islamic celebration, and was promoted as being for only Muslims. While the city of Grand Prairie owns the water park, a private third-party contractor runs it. “A city-owned water park in Grand Prairie openly advertised a ‘MUSLIMS ONLY’ event—closed to the general public,” Abbott posted on X on Wed...

Texas Roadhouse Inc. shares climbed after the restaurant operator posted in-line first‑quarter results and signaled that sales momentum would continue as diners adjusted to higher prices and commodity-cost inflation moderates slightly. Earnings per share came in at $1.87, slightly higher than consensus estimates, while company-owned same-store sales rose 7.1%, the most in five quarters. Its restaurant margin shrank less than forecast, with higher costs “partially offset” by higher sales, Texas Roadhouse said in a statement Thursday. Strong traffic trends continued to fuel sales even as a menu price increase of about 1.9% was implemented early April, the company said. Chief Financial Officer Mike Lenihan said diners are cutting back on alcohol rather than food orders as they grapple with higher prices. “I do think there has been some demand destruction. People, you know, trading to pork and chicken, but maybe also within the beef category, there’s been some shift to lower cost cuts,” he said on an earnings call. The casual dining chain, which has grappled with high beef costs , now expects commodity prices this year to rise 6% to 7% — a slight improvement from the 7% increase it previously forecast. It reaffirmed the rest of its 2026 outlook. Company-owned same-store sales rose 6.5% in the first five weeks of the second quarter, higher than the 5.4% estimated by analysts for the quarter. Chief Executive Officer Jerry Morgan said the focus on developing new stores and franchise acquisitions would also spur growth. “We have already opened seven company restaurants so far this year and currently have an additional 22 under construction,” he said. The company’s shares rose as much as 9.5% in after-hours trading.
