According to an SEC filing dated April 29, 2026, Speece Thorson Capital Group increased its position in Insight Enterprises (NASDAQ:NSIT) by 78,191 shares during the first quarter. The estimated transaction value is $6.39 million, calculated using quarterly average pricing.

RHJ/iStock via Getty Images ETF Characteristics The Sprott Junior Uranium Miners ETF ( URNJ ), which only made its listing debut in February 2023, has, so far, managed to accumulate total assets under management of almost $0.5 billion. UNRJ, which is priced at a relatively steep expense ratio of 0.8% (the median ETF expense ratio is 30bps lower ) offers exposure to 33 global stocks that are exposed to the uranium mining business. URNJ’s uranium mining cohort typically consists of small upcoming pre-revenue miners, that currently mainly dabble in the exploration and development stage of uranium mining. Considering where they are in the overall lifecycle, it’s important to keep in mind that most of these stocks haven’t quite transitioned to the large-cap/giant-cap terrain, with the bulk of the portfolio consisting of small-cap miners (39% of the portfolio). URNJ also offers a healthy mix of mid-caps and micro-caps. Morningstar Even though URNJ is a US-listed product, note that only 15% of the portfolio is based here, with Canadian based miners accounting for the lion’s share of the portfolio (47%). URNJ How Is URNJ’s Tracking Index Built? URNJ doesn’t actively pick stocks for its portfolio, but seeks to mirror the performance of the the Nasdaq Sprott Junior Uranium Miners Index [NSJUMI]. The goal of this index is to pick up 30-40 global stocks (that pass certain minimum market-cap criteria such as $30 million and a maximum threshold of $3 billion) that have, or are expected to have a significant portion of their business operations related to uranium. To get more specific, prospective companies are required to generate at least 50% of their revenue from, or 50% of their assets from activities linked to: mining, exploration, development, and production of uranium, uranium royalty income, uranium supply This index which weights its constituents on the basis of their market-cap, is rebalanced twice a year and ensures that the top 4 stocks are not allowed to take up more ...

LanaStock/iStock via Getty Images One of the things that happened during the Great Financial Crisis was that investors got to learn some new financial terms. Things like Jingle Mail , NINJA loans , bank bailouts, and credit default swaps were utilized frequently by the financial media. The economy and markets have growing storms on multiple fronts, including around private credit, a moribund housing sector, the crisis in the Middle East, soaring oil and commodity prices, anemic job growth, and sticky inflation. WTI Oil - 3 Month Price Chart (MarketWatch) Investors have already added a new word to their lexicon here in 2026. And that is gating, as major private credit funds from Blue Owl Capital ( OWL ), Ares Management ( ARE ), Cliffwater, and Apollo Global Management ( APO ), among others, in the first quarter, granted half or less of their investment redemption requests from the large private credit funds these firms manage. Zero Hedge, Company Filings, FT Research If the myriad issues confronting the U.S. economy lead to a recession in 2026, investors will once again have to incorporate new financial terms into their investment glossaries. In today's column, I will highlight three of these. 1. Accidental Landlords NAR One of the biggest myths that gets a lot of air in the financial media is that the United States has too few homes. The truth is the nation does not have enough affordable homes, as U.S. housing affordability remains historically low. In addition, demographics aren't being considered to the degree they should be. Baby Boomers own just over 40% of all housing stock in America. Baby Boomers also own 57% of vacation homes and 58% of investment income-generating rental properties. The largest generational cohort in U.S. history's oldest members hit 80 years old this year. Baby Boomers constitute about 21. 8% of the current U.S. population, a figure projected to decrease to 17% by 2030. As this generation passes, more and more of this housing inventory w...
