Wall Street is about as bullish about Palantir Technologies Inc. as it’s ever been, as the potential for growth in the company’s defense business brings enthusiasm back to the stock following a four-month selloff. The data-analysis software company, which gets about half its revenue from US government and military contracts, jumped 5.8% on Monday to bring its four-session gain to 13%. The rally started last week as President Donald Trump ratcheted up threats against Iran, and is continuing amid military strikes by the US and Israel on the country. The Trump administration expects the fighting to potentially last for weeks , while Iranian officials say it will probably go on for longer. “The positive move in the stock is an emotional reaction to how Palantir is positioned with the government and military,” said Tim Pagliara , chief investment officer at Capwealth Advisors, which owns the company’s shares. “I don’t think the war represents a meaningful change to Palantir’s fundamentals, but it validates Palantir’s position within the government, and it positions them for continued growth and adoption in many other areas of the military,” he said. “The war really speaks to the theme of how the company is so embedded in the government and the moat it has there.” The stock, which has long been treated skeptically by analysts due to its extreme valuation, was upgraded by at least eight firms last month amid a slump that sent Palantir shares down 38% from a record high on Nov. 3 to a Feb. 24 low. The plunge came amid a barrage of criticism from investor Michael Burry of The Big Short fame centered on concerns about the company’s valuation and potential for growth, as well as scrutiny of its business dealings with US Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Department of Homeland Security.

Palantir has been a major US government contractor for years, working largely with the military and ICE. In 2024, it received a $100 million contract for its Maven Smart System, an AI-enabled battle management platform system that aggregates military data. And last summer, the company received a $10 billion contract from the US Army that the government said will reduce procurement timelines, “ensuring soldiers have rapid access to cutting-edge data integration, analytics and AI tools.” The stock, which has long been treated skeptically by analysts due to its extreme valuation, was upgraded by at least eight firms last month amid a slump that sent Palantir shares down 38% from a record high on Nov. 3 to a Feb. 24 low. The plunge came amid a barrage of criticism from investor Michael Burry of fame centered on concerns about the company’s valuation and potential for growth, as well as scrutiny of its business dealings with US Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Department of Homeland Security. “I don’t think the war represents a meaningful change to Palantir’s fundamentals, but it validates Palantir’s position within the government, and it positions them for continued growth and adoption in many other areas of the military,” he said. “The war really speaks to the theme of how the company is so embedded in the government and the moat it has there.” “The positive move in the stock is an emotional reaction to how Palantir is positioned with the government and military,” said Tim Pagliara, chief investment officer at Capwealth Advisors, which owns the company’s shares.

科技保险将迎来三大变化。 为科技创新保驾护航的科技保险，迎来“顶层设计”。 科技部、金融监管总局等四部门近日联合发布《关于加快推动科技保险高质量发展 有力支撑高水平科技自立自强的若干意见》（下称《意见》），围绕科技保险“保障谁、保什么、怎么保”，推出20项政策举措。 “《意见》的出台为科技保险提供了‘顶层设计’，将推动保险业从风险补偿者升级为科技创新的全程赋能者，并引导险资作为‘耐心资本’支撑国家重大科技任务。”对外经济贸易大学创新与风险管理研究中心副主任、众托帮联合创始人兼总经理龙格对第一财经记者表示。 龙格分析称，此次《意见》的最大亮点在于产品设计精准聚焦人工智能等前沿领域，服务覆盖研发到产业化的全链条，并通过专营机构、容错机制等制度创新为业务开展创造条件。 金融监管总局表示，《意见》的出台将有效推动新时期科技保险高质量发展，发挥科技保险支持创新的减震器和稳定器作用，切实解决科技保险发展与创新实际需求的适配性不足问题，全面提升科技保险服务高水平科技自立自强和科技强国建设的能力与水平。 建立协调推进机制 在总体要求上，《意见》明确需坚持“政府引导、市场运作、协同推进、防范风险”的总体原则，加快构建同科技创新相适应的科技保险体制机制，建立涵盖科技创新全链条、全周期的保险产品和服务体系，加大对国家重大科技任务和科技型中小企业的支持力度。 根据金融监管总局2024年发布的《科技保险业务统计制度》，科技保险是指服务国家创新驱动发展战略，支持高水平科技自立自强，为科技研发、成果转化、产业化推广等科技活动以及科技活动主体，提供风险保障和资金支持等经济行为的统称。 原银保监会副主席梁涛在“2025影响力企业家年会”上曾公开表示，我国的科技保险始于2006年，现在已经形成30种科技保险产品体系。虽然科技保险与传统财产险相比保费规模还较小，但在科技金融的细分领域已经初显规模效应。到2024年底，全国科技保险为科技创新活动提供的保险保障超过9万亿元，保险企业投资科技企业超过6000亿元。另据新华社报道，2025年，我国科技保险保费同比增长44%。 优良的机制是顶层设计的关键所在。《意见》明确，围绕国家重点部署的科技和产业发展领域，需建立全国科技保险重大技术攻关协调推进机制，优化政府、科技型企业、保险机构等多主体风险分散模式；完善投保人、保险市场、再保险市场等多层次损失分担方式。在国家...

格隆汇3月3日｜据市场消息，真主党称，今早用导弹瞄准以色列北部地区。

中国企业出海中东的门槛其实并不低。 美国和以色列对伊朗发起军事行动以来，中东地区紧张局势升级，对于在中东有业务布局的中国医疗企业会产生哪些影响引发关注。 第一财经记者3月3日从多位医疗器械设备行业人士方面了解情况，大部分厂商表示，目前战局的影响主要在于物流方面。由于中国医疗厂商在中东的业务起步相对较晚，占比量不大，产生的影响也较为有限。 一位国内医疗设备厂商负责人对第一财经记者表示，尽管很多中国企业近年来出海的需求迫切，但大部分公司仍在观望，或者是刚刚开始布局。目前在中东业务量相对较大的还是一些大型的上市公司。 以医疗设备而言，国内两大巨头企业联影和迈瑞都在中东开展业务。联影医疗尚未对中东战局影响发表公开回应，但知情人士对第一财经记者表示：“联影在中东的业务占比比较低，基本没有影响。” 关于联影在中东已经跑到哪一步了？该公司在最近举行的迪拜国际医疗展上给出回应：截至目前，联影产品已进入20余个中东、中亚及非洲国家，形成以沙特、阿联酋为枢纽，向中亚、非洲等“一带一路”沿线国家外溢的区域化布局。 联影还全资设立了阿联酋子公司，作为中东—北非区域总部，并在迪拜及周边国家布局区域配件中心，支撑设备安装、维护与快速响应；在沙特利雅得设立科学技术办事处，并进入沙特Al Mana医疗集团等区域内顶级医疗机构。 尽管中东是一个潜力巨大的新兴市场，但如果看全球主要医疗器械巨头营收，中东市场占比不到10%。据联影援引中国企业的出海数据，2025年上半年，中国对土耳其、沙特、阿联酋三国的医疗器械出口额约2亿美元。 多位业内人士对第一财经记者表示，中国企业出海中东的门槛其实并不低。表面上看，中东虽然具备所有“理想市场”的特征：高支付潜力、强政府投入、医疗需求持续增长，但真正进入之后，摆在企业面前的，是国家之间在医疗体系成熟度、监管逻辑、文化结构、族裔与阶层上的巨大差异。这意味着要占据中东市场，中国企业不能仅仅停留在销售层面，而是需要同步推进本土化体系建设。 这也意味着目前中国一些初创企业要在中东开展业务仍然面临很大的挑战。某国内手术机器人厂商负责人对第一财经记者表示：“我们还在观望中东市场，目前尚未开展业务，但之前有在推进海湾国家的一些注册合作。” 国内某医疗器械厂商创始人CEO对第一财经记者表示，他的公司在中东也有业务，业务量不大，每年大约几百万营收。 在谈到目前局势对业务的影响时，上述...

STORY: From drones striking Amazon data centres to AI taking the Mobile World Congress by storm. This is Tech Weekly. :: Tech Weekly Amazon data centers in the UAE and Bahrain were damaged by drone strikes from the Middle East conflict, the company said on Monday. Cloud services have been disrupted with the tech giant stating the recovery will be "prolonged." It marks the first time a major U.S. tech company's data center has been disrupted by military action. The strikes raise questions around Big Tech's pace of expansion in the region. New legislation could see Poland ban social media for children under 15 years of age. The government says platforms will be responsible for age verification, or face fines. Several European governments have explored similar restrictions amid claims social-media services are harmful or addictive for minors. AI technology and next generation robotics were the focus for the World Mobile Congress in Barcelona. Exhibitors are showcasing how AI is reshaping smartphones, wearables and connected services. AI and the ethics surrounding its rapid deployment sits high on this year’s agenda. SpaceX launched a new batch of Starlink satellites into low‑Earth orbit, the company said on Sunday.

Sportswear brand On Running has opened a factory in South Korea using robots to make running shoes. Co-founder Caspar Coppetti says automation enables the brand to make shoes faster. The Swiss company said it plans to open similar factories in the United States and Europe. Tariff hikes, supply chain disruptions and geopolitical risks are driving brands to manufacture their products closer to the end consumer.

PM Images/DigitalVision via Getty Images Thesis Kymera Therapeutics ( KYMR ) just reported a 4Q25 GAAP EPS of -$0.97, a figure that missed the consensus by about $0.18. Revenue came in at just $2.9 million for the quarter, down about 60.8% year-over-year, and also missed consensus estimates by about $11.9 million. The revenue shortfall reflects lower collaboration revenue compared with the prior year period. Now, despite the miss here, the stock hasn't taken too much of a downturn, since for Kymera the aim here is pipeline progression, and in that sense the company is now more capitalized than ever going into 2026. They hold about $1.6 billion in cash, and with the upcoming milestones this year, investors are hoping for some positive results to help with more upward stock momentum. FY25 financials Kymera's collaboration revenue for FY25 actually declined year-over-year, coming in at about $39.2 million versus $47.1 million a year ago. I think we can put this drop mainly down to being timing-related, and it goes to show how revenue is recognised under partnership agreements rather than a deterioration in partner interest. You see, in 2025, most of the recognised collaboration revenue came from Gilead, whereas back in 2024, revenue was driven by Sanofi. As you know, these revenues are milestone/activity-based, so they can fluctuate depending on program progress, but also with accounting treatment rather than actual product sales. Now, since Kymera is still a clinical-stage company without commercial products, collaboration revenue isn't really stable yet or even a recurring revenue stream. So we should view it more as a supplement to its balance sheet rather than a core driver of financial performance. Kymera Therapeutics, Inc. Elsewhere, research and development expenses increased a lot, now up to $316.6 million in 2025 from $240.2 million in 2024. A result of pretty aggressive investment in advancing its pipeline into mid-stage clinical trials. The increase is also ...

Burner accounts on social media sites can increasingly be analyzed to identify the pseudonymous users who post to them using AI in research that has far-reaching consequences for privacy on the Internet, researchers said. The finding, from a recently published research paper , is based on results of experiments correlating specific individuals with accounts or posts across more than one social media platform. The success rate was far greater than existing classical deanonymization work that relied on humans assembling structured data sets suitable for algorithmic matching or manual work by skilled investigators. Recall—that is, how many users were successfully deanonymized—was as high as 68 percent. Precision—meaning the rate of guesses that correctly identify the user—was up to 90 percent. I know what you posted last year The findings have the potential to upend pseudonymity, an imperfect but often sufficient privacy measure used by many people to post queries and participate in sometimes sensitive public discussions while making it hard for others to positively identify the speakers. The ability to cheaply and quickly identify the people behind such obscured accounts opens them up to doxxing, stalking, and the assembly of detailed marketing profiles that track where speakers live, what they do for a living, and other personal information. This pseudonymity measure no longer holds. Read full article Comments

Many American wars begin with the assumption that brute force will lead to a swift and decisive victory. While the US military is highly effective at conventional deterrence, it has consistently struggled to defeat adversaries employing asymmetric tactics. In conflicts such as Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan and Yemen, Washington repeatedly underestimated its adversaries by assessing their strength based on their ability to fight conventionally. Iran represents the most dangerous iteration of asymmetric warfare: a state that has developed over more than 45 years to survive US power without direct confrontation. US President Donald Trump now risks revealing the same American vulnerabilities as before: reliance on doctrines and technologies that cannot read or adapt to the changing battlespace, which now includes Iran targeting US assets and bases in the region Take Millennium Challenge 2002, one of the largest pre-Iraq-invasion war game simulations. Here, the US faced an adversary in the Persian Gulf using asymmetric low-tech warfare. US battle formations constituted a naval fleet of 19 ships, including an aircraft carrier, similar to Trump’s armada, which consists of about 20 ships, including two aircraft carriers. Advertisement Documents released by the US National Security Agency found that within 10 minutes of starting the Millennium Challenge operation, Lieutenant General Paul Van Riper, commander of the “red team”, sank the US aircraft carrier and defeated the “blue team”, representing the US forces. However, the commanders paused the war game, “refloated” the sunken ships and resumed the exercises as if the red team’s victory hadn’t occurred. They changed the scenario by restricting the red team’s ability to conduct asymmetric warfare, forcing them to fight on America’s terms, which led to a predetermined US victory. Van Riper’s strategy involved avoiding the interception of electronic and phone communications by using couriers to carry sensitive messages and lante...

For months, there has been talk that Silicon Valley’s billionaire class was recruiting a candidate to take on Representative Ro Khanna. Early Tuesday morning, that candidate made it official. Ethan Agarwal (pictured above), a 40-year-old tech entrepreneur with no political background, told TechCrunch on Monday evening that he is running for California’s 17th congressional district. That process is likely to set up what may become one of the most lavishly funded primary challenges of the 2026 cycle. The race puts a spotlight on Khanna, a 49-year-old Democrat widely seen as a possible 2028 presidential candidate, who has publicly backed a one-time wealth tax in California. His endorsement has infuriated some of the state’s richest founders and investors, but Khanna has doubled down, introducing national legislation with Senator Bernie Sanders that would impose a 5% annual wealth tax on all Americans worth $1 billion or more — a proposal their offices estimate would raise $4.4 trillion over a decade. There’s a certain irony to the situation. Agarwal is a graduate of Wharton and spent three years at McKinsey before founding audio fitness company Aaptiv, which he sold in 2021. He most recently co-founded financial services startup Coterie, backed by Andreessen Horowitz. When Khanna first ran for this same seat in 2014, he was the tech-backed outsider, with tech names like Marc Andreessen, Sheryl Sandberg and Eric Schmidt supporting him. He challenged popular Democratic incumbent Mike Honda, lost that attempt, but came back in 2016 to win. Critics at the time called Khanna an owned man. A decade later, the same charge will surely be leveled at the person trying to unseat him. What follows is an edited version of our conversation with Agarwal.

Sakibul Hasan/iStock via Getty Images Introduction If there’s one thing I have often mentioned, it’s that I am more afraid of missing stock market upside than going through one of the market’s sell-offs. Or to put it differently, I feel much safer in stocks than in cash. It’s not even close, to be honest. One reason is the long-term purchasing power loss of fiat currencies. The chart below is for the U.S. dollar, but it obviously applies to other currencies as well (even more to the ones with higher long-term inflation rates). Since the early 2000s, the value of the dollar (purchasing power) has dropped by roughly 50%, which is rather subdued, as inflation was mostly subdued during the past 25-ish years. Periods like the 1960s and 1970s were worse. Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis That’s why I'm so glad to see that investing has become much more popular in recent years. I’m not talking about people trading crypto, but the ones investing in index ETFs and other vehicles that allow them to grow their capital without the need to become financial professionals. As we can see below, the total AUM (assets under management) of U.S. ETFs has risen to $14 trillion going into this year. JPMorgan Although $14 trillion is already a mind-blowing number, what excited me is the fact that total AUM has grown by 22% per year since 2019. Even active ETFs are booming, as these have grown by 56% per year during this period. During the pandemic, total ETF AUM was just $4 trillion. Currently, NVIDIA ( NVDA ) has a higher market cap than the total U.S. ETF AUM back then. Here’s what BlackRock ( BLK ) said at a recent conference: We had $530 billion of organic asset growth in iShares last year, finished No. 1 across the world. But we're still opening up new use cases for ETFs in fixed income, in active ETFs, in nonlinear ETFs that incorporate options in terms of covered call writing or puts and calls that are structured note replacements. And I think of kind of the growth of ETFs around t...

Eka Jaya Permana/iStock via Getty Images Investment Approach Fidelity® Limited Term Bond ETF is a shorter-duration investment-grade bond strategy, which is focused primarily on U.S. corporate credit. The fund's primary benchmark is the Bloomberg U.S. 1-5 Year Government/Credit Bond Index. However, given the fund's focus on credit, it also has a secondary, composite benchmark, which consists of 70% Bloomberg U.S. 1-5 Year Credit Bond Index, 20% Bloomberg U.S. 1-5 Year Government Bond Index and 10% ICE BofA 1-5 Year BB-B U.S. Cash Pay High Yield Constrained Index. The composition differed in periods prior to February 28, 2024. Utilizing a team-based investment process, the fund relies on experienced portfolio managers, research analysts and traders. We concentrate on areas where we believe we can repeatedly add value, including asset allocation, sector and security selection, and yield-curve positioning. Robust governance and risk management, consisting of extensive quantitative modeling, formal and informal portfolio reviews, and proprietary tools, support the identification of both opportunities and risks. Taxable Bond Market Review U.S. taxable investment-grade bonds advanced 1.10% in the fourth quarter of 2025, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. This result capped a year of elevated volatility, yet one in which the bond market posted gains in all four quarters. For the full year, the Aggregate index rose 7.30%, its best annual result since 2020. Quarterly performance was fueled by a combination of elevated starting yields and price appreciation, as bond prices rose amid falling interest rates and investor demand, supported by stable fundamentals. The U.S. Federal Reserve, after resuming the monetary easing program it had paused from January until September of this year, followed through with additional policy rate reductions in October and December. The three rate cuts in 2025's second half, each of a quarter percentage point (25 basis points)...
