Detectives are investigating if alleged surveillance of Jewish locations and individuals is linked to possible attacks on British soil Counter-terrorism detectives have been granted more time to question four men arrested on suspicion of spying for Iran on locations and individuals linked to the Jewish community. The suspects, one Iranian and three dual British-Iranian nationals, can now be held in custody until 13 March, the Metropolitan police said on Saturday. The men, aged 22, 40, 52 and 55, were arrested under the National Security Act at addresses in Harrow, Watford and Barnet shortly after 1am on Friday. The Met said six other men, aged between 20 and 49, arrested at the same location in Harrow, have been bailed pending further investigation. One of the men was further arrested on suspicion of assaulting a police officer, the force added. Detectives are understood to be investigating why the alleged surveillance of Jewish locations and individuals was being carried out and whether it was linked to a wish to carry out attacks on British soil. Part of the investigation is looking at claims that in-person surveillance in London took place and whether it was directed from overseas. The operation by counter-terrorism police and MI5 had been going on for months. Shabana Mahmood, the home secretary, said on Friday the arrests meant police had kept “Britain safe from a potential threat”. Mahmood said: “I want to thank the police and our security services for the action they’ve taken today to keep Britain safe from a potential threat. “The Jewish community and the wider public will understandably be concerned by today’s arrests. We continue to monitor the situation closely and engage with those affected. “I can reassure you that our police and security services are world-leading and won’t hesitate to take action to counter any threat to the UK. They will continue to use the full range of tools and powers available to them to keep this country safe. They have the gover...

Iran's New Supreme Leader To Be Chosen Within 24 Hours: State Media Iran could be hours away from installing a new supreme leader , with state Fars News reporting early Saturday that a successor may be selected within the next 24 hours, but there are signs of a potential factional power struggle - somewhat expected given the complex history of reform vs. hardline Islamic interpretations inside Iran. The outlet cited sources within the Assembly of Experts, which is the 88-member body of Islamic jurists elected every eight years and tasked with choosing the country's top clerical authority. The process was "paused" this week amid the heavy bombing campaign. File image: Assembly of Experts There were reports earlier this week that the US-Israeli Operation Epic Fury had struck a Tehran building where the Assembly of Experts were meeting, but such battlefield claims by US and Israeli officials remain hard to ultimately verify, given the intensify of the bombardment and fog of war. The development comes as the war continues to intensify, as President Trump vows to keep hitting Iran harder. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Tehran will "never surrender" to Washington or Tel Aviv , even as he issued an apology to neighboring Gulf states after Iranian strikes targeted locations linked to American military assets stationed in the region. And civilian sites in Gulf cities have also clearly been directly hit , such as airports - though the Iranians' own airports have been struck. The process for choosing a new Supreme Leaders is likely intense as the bombs fall, and there's likely internal divide over how to handle the crisis among the country's long-standing political factions...

SANTA CLARA, CA, March 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SANTA CLARA, CA - March 07, 2026 - - Interview Kickstart, a leading platform for advanced technical interview preparation and career acceleration for technology professionals, has announced the launch of its Technical Program Manager Interview Prep Masterclass, a comprehensive training program designed to help professionals prepare for Technical Program Manager interviews at top technology companies. The program aims to support candidates who are pursuing Technical Program Manager roles at organizations such as Google, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, and other companies that rely on large-scale engineering programs and complex cross-functional execution. Technical Program Managers play an essential role within modern technology organizations by coordinating complex engineering initiatives and ensuring that large programs are delivered successfully. Unlike traditional program managers, TPMs are expected to operate at the intersection of engineering leadership, program execution, and strategic planning. They work closely with engineering teams, product managers, and executive stakeholders to manage technical roadmaps, align teams across multiple functions, and drive large-scale technical initiatives from concept through production. Technical Program Manager Interview Preparation Guide As technology companies continue to build increasingly complex platforms, the demand for experienced Technical Program Managers has grown significantly. However, the hiring process for TPM roles is widely known to be challenging. Candidates are typically evaluated across multiple areas including system-level thinking, technical fluency, leadership capabilities, program management frameworks, and behavioral competencies. Interview processes often include multiple technical discussions, system design scenarios, program execution case studies, and leadership interviews designed to evaluate a candidate's ability to manage complex technical initiat...

sankai/iStock via Getty Images U.S. crude oil on Friday recorded its biggest weekly gain since the establishment of the trading benchmark more than four decades ago as the ongoing conflict in the Middle East disrupted global fuel supplies. On Friday alone, front-month Nymex crude ( CL1:COM ) futures for April delivery added more than 12% to reach $91 per barrel, its highest level since late 2022. The U.S. oil benchmark jumped nearly 36% this week, marking its biggest weekly gain since the inception of the West Texas Intermediate oil contract in March 1983. Meanwhile, front-month Brent crude ( CO1:COM ) futures for May delivery spiked roughly 9% on Friday to hover around $93 per barrel. The international oil benchmark reached the highest level since late 2023, following its biggest weekly rise since April 2020. Further gains are likely next week as oil-producing nations in the Middle East reduce production as the war escalates and supplies across the Strait of Hormuz, a critical maritime route for oil shipments, get disrupted. “A longer conflict in the Persian Gulf region could entrench high oil and gas prices, translating into inflationary pressure on a global scale,” wrote Seeking Alpha analyst MarketPulse on Friday. “The effects would be visible not only in energy costs but also in expectations regarding the path of central bank interest rates worldwide.” SA Investing Group leader James Foord argued that the direction of oil prices will determine the trajectory of the S&P 500 ( SP500 ) going forward. “A spike to $120 oil could trigger a 5–10% S&P 500 correction via stagflation, higher yields, and margin compression,” he wrote. “If oil collapses to $60 as war premiums fade, expect a relief rally and acceleration of the AI-driven bull market,” he added.

When investors look at Alphabet (GOOG 0.87%)(GOOGL 0.78%), they see a dominant brand with strong top-line momentum. The search giant's business is growing fast, with total company revenue rising 18% year over year to $113.8 billion in the fourth quarter of 2025. But underneath the surface, the company is undergoing a capital-intensive transition to support artificial intelligence (AI). With Alphabet's revenue rising rapidly while it spends aggressively, where could the stock be five years from now? The answer might surprise you. Despite Alphabet's already massive size (the company has a market capitalization of more than $3.6 trillion as of this writing), I think its stock price is likely to trade at a far higher level in five years. A soaring cloud computing business A key driver of Alphabet's recent success is its increasingly diversified business. Specifically, the company's Google Cloud segment (cloud computing) saw revenue jump 48% year over year to $17.7 billion in the fourth quarter of 2025. And this isn't just top-line growth. It is highly profitable. Impressively, the segment's operating income soared from roughly $2.1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024 to $5.3 billion in the most recent quarter. But Alphabet's core business is also still firing on all cylinders. The company's "Google Search & other" segment saw revenue increase 17% year over year to $63.1 billion in the fourth quarter. In addition, YouTube ads revenue rose 9% year over year. This broad-based growth translated into significant profitability. Alphabet's fourth-quarter net income increased 30% year over year to $34.5 billion. The capital expenditure trade-off Profitability is key for Alphabet right now, as it will need a lot of cash. As the company continues to invest heavily in AI infrastructure, its highly profitable, rapidly expanding cloud division and cash-rich search business help fund its extreme appetite for more computing. Alphabet management said its 2026 capital expenditures are...

If you're a U.S. stock investor, you might be feeling underwhelmed by your portfolio's performance so far in 2026.

If you're a U.S. stock investor, you might be feeling underwhelmed by your portfolio's performance so far in 2026. The S&P 500 index is mostly going sideways (up 0.5% year to date), and the tech-heavy Nasdaq-100 index is down about 1.2% year to date after being hit hard by artificial intelligence (AI) fears and a software stock sell-off. While American stocks are in the doldrums, the rest of the world is picking up the pace. According to Reuters, research from LSEG/Lipper shows that U.S.-based investors have pulled about $75 billion out of U.S. stocks in the past six months. And $52 billion of those outflows happened since Jan. 1, 2026. This is the fastest pace of U.S. investors fleeing U.S. stocks during the first eight weeks of a new year since at least 2010. Could this be the start of a long-term "bye, America" trade? Let's look at a few reasons to buy international stocks as part of a diversified portfolio. International stocks are booming During the past year, the American stock market has been strongly outperformed by international ETFs in Europe, the Pacific, and emerging markets. Some individual countries' stock markets have done even better -- South Korea's stock market is up about 177% in the past year. According to LSEG/Lipper data cited by Reuters, U.S. investors have put $26 billion into emerging market stocks so far this year, with South Korea and Brazil being the top destinations. Possible reasons for strong performance of international stocks include a declining U.S. dollar, investor concerns about the high valuations and risks of AI stocks, and investor-friendly policy changes in other countries. But the biggest reason might be optimism for continued economic growth and rising earnings in other countries beyond America. Even if the U.S. stock market keeps growing, international stocks could keep growing faster. How to buy international stocks right now If you want to get in on the "bye, America" trade, the Vanguard Total International Stock ETF (VXU...

Scotland have "one more week to finish the job" as they target an unlikely Six Nations triumph, says captain Sione Tuipulotu. Gregor Townsend's side ended France's Grand Slam hopes with an exhilarating seven-try victory at Murrayfield to go level on points with Les Bleus at the top of the championship. They go to Dublin next weekend knowing a win over Ireland gives them a chance of a first title since 1999 before the French host England later in the day. For 65 minutes on Saturday, Scotland destroyed one of the best teams in the world. They carved through the bedraggled French defence again and again and again. Darcy Graham scored twice, as did opposite wing Kyle Steyn. Pierre Schoeman, the effervescent Ben White and Tom Jordan also crossed as the usually unflappable French floundered. The returning Jack Dempsey was outstanding and, until a late French rally snatched a bonus point, Scotland stood alone at the top of the table.
