The telecoms are calling investors back, with AT&T stock and Verizon stock connecting investors to returns that are outperforming even those from major tech stocks. Both AT&T stock and Verizon stock saw positive gains recently, with AT&T up 16.6% and Verizon stock up 25.7% year-to-date. Market rotation away from more growth-oriented stocks and into value-driven and defensive sectors could be the reason why, David Keller, president and chief strategist at Sierra Alpha Research, told Investor's Business Daily's "Investing with IBD" podcast.

The Trade Desk (NASDAQ:TTD) , a digital ad-buying platform provider, closed Thursday at $29.79, up 18.36%. The stock rallied after reports of exploratory OpenAI ad-sales talks and a large CEO share purchase hit the newswire. Investors are watching whether any formal partnership emerges to monetize AI-driven ad inventory . Trading volume reached 82.2 million shares, about 405% above its three-month average of 16.3 million shares. The Trade Desk IPO'd in 2016 and has grown 890% since going public. The S&P 500 slipped 0.58% to 6,830, while the Nasdaq Composite eased 0.26% to 22,749 as growth names lost some momentum. Within advertising agencies, industry peers PubMatic closed at $8.87, up 1.60%, and Magnite finished at $14.16, gaining 2.39%, lagging The Trade Desk’s sharp move. The Trade Desk rallied today over two key pieces of news. First, the company announced that it was in “early discussions” with OpenAI to help the AI behemoth rollout advertising on its platform. While I’m partially optimistic, as this deal highlights the value of TTD’s offerings, rather than OpenAI building its own, the company is also cozying up to one of the “Walled Gardens” it typically differentiates itself from.

Hong Kong-listed Insilico Medicine has signed a cooperation agreement with the United Arab Emirates’ drug regulator to advance the use of its artificial intelligence tools in drug discovery across the region, even as geopolitical tensions escalate in the Middle East. Shares of Insilico rose as much as 12.8 per cent in morning trading on Thursday before paring gains to close 8.6 per cent higher at HK$56.10. The advance outpaced the benchmark Hang Seng Index, which edged up 0.3 per cent. The agreement was reached during the World Health Expo in Dubai between February 9 and 12, about two weeks before the United States and Israel launched joint military strikes on Iran on February 28. Advertisement Those strikes triggered retaliatory missile and drone attacks targeting cities hosting US military assets across the Gulf, including Dubai and Abu Dhabi. The Hang Seng Index has fallen about 5 per cent since the escalation, ending Thursday at 25,321. Despite the regional tensions, Shaikha Al Mazrouei, director of the Reference National Laboratory Drug Department at the Emirates Drug Establishment, said the partnership would expand the use of advanced AI tools in pharmaceutical research. Advertisement “The collaboration will enable the use of advanced AI platforms based on generative models and reinforcement learning algorithms to analyse biological, chemical and clinical data,” she said in a statement.

Bukayo Saka says he is untroubled by the rising tide of criticism against Arsenal and wants to do one thing and one thing alone – win. The winger marked his 300th appearance for the club with the only goal in Wednesday’s 1-0 victory at Brighton, which moved Arsenal seven points clear of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League. City have a game in hand. It was an emotional night at the Amex Stadium. Fabian Hürzeler had complained about Arsenal’s timewasting beforehand, the Brighton manager raged about it during the match – as did the home crowd – and he signed off with another blast, saying Arsenal had again taken advantage of the inability of referees to combat delaying tactics. Arsenal have felt a number of pot-shots from opponents in recent weeks, including a TikTok clip from Wolves after the 2-2 draw between the clubs at Molineux. It highlighted Arsenal’s game management in unforgiving style. There has also been plenty of grumbling in general about the ethics and aesthetics of Arsenal’s power at set pieces. “We don’t listen to that stuff,” Saka said. “I don’t see it. I don’t read it. It is not beneficial in any way. We just want to continue going our way – winning. People will say whatever they want to say. Whether we play the most beautiful football, or if we score from a set piece, they will still talk. For us, we just want to win games and we are getting closer to the end of the season.” According to Opta, the total time of Arsenal’s restarts against Brighton was 30min, 51sec – their most in a league game this season. Brighton’s restarts were 16:07 – their fifth-lowest. The average time of Arsenal’s restarts was 31.4sec – their joint 12th-highest in a league game this season. The ball-in-play percentage was 53.5% – Arsenal’s ninth-highest. Saka has found his own stats crunched – his goals and assists are down significantly on the previous three seasons. His goal against Brighton was his sixth of the league campaign and ninth in all competitions. He ha...

tiero Together AI, an artificial intelligence cloud startup that has received backing from Nvidia ( NVDA ), is in pursuit of $1B in a new funding round, according to The Information . The San Francisco-based company is currently valued at $7.5B, the report said. Together AI, founded in 2022, is already generating about $1B in annualized revenue, a figure that has nearly tripled in less than one year. The company leases Nvidia chip servers and then rents them out to AI developers. It also buys some servers for its data centers. This new round of funding is mostly for that purpose, according to people familiar with the issue. The company has raised a total of $554M across five funding rounds, which included investments from notable tech companies such as Nvidia and Salesforce Ventures ( CRM ). "To support our rapidly growing ecosystem, we're dramatically expanding our infrastructure," Together AI said. "We've secured 200 MW of power capacity and are deploying optimized clusters of NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs across multiple North American data centers. Our recent partnership with Hypertec to co-build a cluster of 36,000 NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 GPUs further strengthens our position as the leading AI Cloud provider." It is similar to other so-called neoclouds such as Lambda, CoreWeave ( CRWV ), and Nebius ( NBIS ).

The smallest of Gap’s brands continues to be a flash point for investors.

With war quickly spilling over Iran’s borders across the Middle East and concerns that AI could displace entire knowledge-based companies and industries, investors have been searching for safety lately. “Markets are panicked as investors fear that the blast radius of the Iran attack may be larger than initially suspected,” he wrote in a note Wednesday. In some sense, this may be an example of why investors should be careful what they wish for.

Asian equities were primed for early declines Friday after US stocks and bonds fell, extending a week of whipsawing moves as headlines depicted escalating tensions in the Middle East. Oil rose and the dollar strengthened. Equity index futures for Japan, Australia, Hong Kong and South Korea all traded lower, taking cues from a downbeat session on Wall Street. The S&P 500 fell 0.6%, with all sectors falling except energy, technology and consumer discretionary stocks — suggesting equity investors are seeing some opportunities amid the gloom. The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 fell 0.3%. Nvidia Corp. managed a minor gain despite a gauge of semiconductor shares dropping 1.2% as Bloomberg News reported the US is considering requiring permits for artificial-intelligence chip sales. Attention on chips will flow into Asia’s session Friday following sharp swings in South Korea, with the local benchmark including semiconductor stocks that have soared on the AI capex supercycle. The ongoing US-Israeli offensive against Iran has jolted global energy markets, pushing US crude near $81 a barrel amid concerns that disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz may constrain supplies. The conflict is already unsettling flows to key buyers, with top importer China moving to conserve fuel, heightening inflation risks and market volatility if the fighting persists. “What matters now is whether the war will last days, weeks, or longer,” said Marco Oviedo , senior strategist at XP Investimentos. The possibility that the conflict doesn’t last long “remains the base case, and that the US is winning the battle. But Iran’s refusal to back down is keeping things tense.” Iran launched a fresh wave of missile and drone strikes across the Gulf on Thursday evening, with attacks reported in the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told NBC News that his country hadn’t asked for a ceasefire and had no intention of negotiating. However, the US remains defiant. Tr...

Earnings Call Insights: Victoria's Secret & Co. (VSCO) Q4 2025 Management View CEO Hillary Super highlighted, "We returned to growth mode in 2025 with full year comp sales up 5%. Fourth quarter and full year results exceeded top and bottom line guidance, reflecting strength across brands, channels and geographies." She noted that the company reasserted its leadership in bras, reignited PINK, grew the beauty business, and expanded its customer file for the first time in years. Super called out a "signature brand moment" in the 2025 fashion show that "reestablished Victoria's Secret at the center of the cultural conversation and translated directly into business momentum." Super indicated a deliberate evolution in operations, stating, "When we combine great product, powerful storytelling and an elevated experience, our customer responds." She emphasized momentum in bras, panties, and sleepwear, noting, "Victoria's Secret Bra business grew mid-single digits in the fourth quarter," and that sleepwear became "our third largest new customer acquisition category in the quarter." On PINK, Super stated, "For several years, the brand had drifted from its core...In 2025, we reset the foundation and returned PINK to a differentiated position," with high single-digit growth in Q4 and double-digit AUR expansion. Internationally, Super reported, "For the fourth quarter, net sales increased 43% year-over-year with growth across channels and geographies, led by continued strength in China."

Earnings Call Insights: Stabilis Solutions, Inc. (SLNG) Q4 2025 Management View Interim President, CEO & Executive Chairman J. Crenshaw described 2025 as a year of strong execution, noting successful completion of two major multiyear contracts: the truck-to-ship marine bunkering contract with Carnival Corporation and a contract with a global provider of mobile power generation for a Louisiana electrical cooperative. Crenshaw stated, "The completion of these agreements resulted in a year-over-year decline in revenue and adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter. The conclusion of the contracts during the quarter reduced fourth quarter revenues by approximately 28%." Crenshaw emphasized, "As we move into 2026, we continue to see significant and growing demand across our key markets. That said, we expect lower revenues and profitability in the first half of the year as we bridge towards the start-up of several new customer contracts that are expected to begin in mid-2026 and early 2027." A key announcement was the award of an estimated $200 million, two-year contract to support behind-the-meter power generation for a U.S. data center. Crenshaw stated, "Upon commencement, it will represent the company's largest ever contract in operation. Deliveries will begin in the first quarter of 2027 and are expected through the first quarter of 2029." Crenshaw reported strong demand in aerospace and marine bunkering, including progress toward a final investment decision (FID) on the Galveston liquefaction project. He noted, "We have secured customer offtake commitments for 56% of the facility's planned capacity and are working to sell the remaining available capacity." CFO Andrew Puhala reported, "Fourth quarter revenue decreased 23% year-over-year, driven by a 22% decrease in LNG gallons sold and lower rental and service revenue. At an end market level, marine bunkering revenues fell 42% year-over-year, while power generation revenues decreased 56% due to the conclusion of the large...

Harms to children, such as sexual exploitation and detriments to mental health, are inevitable on Meta’s platforms, the company’s CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Instagram leader Adam Mosseri said in taped depositions played at a trial in New Mexico on Tuesday and Wednesday. “I just think if you’re serving billions of people, the unfortunate reality is that some very small percent of them are going to be criminals, and we should work as hard as we can to stop that activity from happening,” said Zuckerberg. “I don’t think that the standard for our platforms would be that you should assume that it will ever be perfect.” Meta’s apps, which include Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, are among the most popular in the world, each with 3 billion monthly active users. The trial has set the social media giant against New Mexico’s attorney general, who alleges that Meta’s platforms put profits and user engagement over child safety. Raul Torrez has accused the company of knowingly enabling predators to use Facebook and Instagram to exploit children. Meta disputes the allegations, citing changes it has introduced, including teen accounts with default protections that debuted in 2024. The trial, which began in early February, is expected to last about seven weeks. “We have strict, longstanding rules against child exploitation and have invested billions to fight it, both through proactive detection technology and safety features designed to prevent harm,” said a Meta spokesperson. “We provide industry-leading transparency, regularly sharing data on how much violating content we remove and how much we miss. No system can ever be perfect, and we’ve never claimed to be” Jurors were shown recorded depositions of Zuckerberg and Mosseri filmed between March and July last year. The jury also heard that family members of Meta employees had experienced sexual solicitation on Instagram. Prosecutors also presented evidence that the company estimated in 2020 that 500,000 children were receiving sexu...

The Dow Jones Industrial Average — whose climb this year was cited by President Donald Trump as evidence of his policies’ economic effectiveness — has turned negative for the year as the ongoing conflict between the US and Iran weighed on investor sentiment. The index, comprised of well-known names such as JPMorgan Chase & Co. , Coca-Cola Co. and Boeing Co. , slumped 1.6% on Thursday as energy prices soared. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. , Caterpillar Inc. and Walmart Inc. were among the gauge’s biggest decliners. The average is now down 0.2% year-to-date. Read nmore: US Oil Tops $81 as Investors Price In Protracted US-Iran War The “very large rise in crude oil today tends to weigh on the old-economy names first,” said Matt Maley , chief market strategist at Miller Tabak + Co. “However, if it continues, the inflation scare will spread to other parts of the stock market.” Trump often views the stock market as a barometer of his success. When the Dow broke above the 50,000 level last month for the first time ever, he credited stocks’ strong performance to his tariffs and even predicted that the Dow would reach 100,000 points by the end of his second term. However, the average has dropped 4.3% since then, falling below 50,000 in the process. Enthusiasm for stocks has been hurt by concerns over disruption from artificial intelligence and worries over private credit, in addition to the war between the US and Iran. The Dow’s price-weighted structure and its focus on more traditional industries, like automobiles and manufacturing, means technology makes up a smaller part in the index than in the S&P 500, which is market cap-weighted. Financials hold the highest Dow weighting — about 26% — followed by tech at 18% and industrials at 17%. By comparison, the tech sector accounts for more than 30% of the S&P 500. Thursday saw another turbulent session in US stocks as the escalating conflict in the Middle East raised the prospect of sustained disruptions to energy markets and oil pri...
