It can be fun to see what the general sentiment is about the odds of an asset you own reaching a flashy price target. In that vein, on Polymarket, a major prediction market, the crowd as I write this is predicting that by the end of March 2026, Bitcoin (BTC 2.11%) has just a 1% chance of being priced at $150,000 or more.

It can be fun to see what the general sentiment is about the odds of an asset you own reaching a flashy price target. In that vein, on Polymarket, a major prediction market, the crowd as I write this is predicting that by the end of March 2026, Bitcoin (BTC 2.11%) has just a 1% chance of being priced at $150,000 or more. The odds also look quite poor for it to hit that same milestone by Dec. 31, at 11%. Those probabilities might be right, or they might be wrong. Here's what I predict is going to happen next. Price predictions can be right for the wrong reasons Prediction markets are all the rage these days, but it's important to recognize that they aren't oracles. Sure, they're effective at aggregating information about the sentiment of prediction market traders across a wide variety of topics and potential outcomes. But they aren't at all immune to events being mispriced due to thin liquidity or people overpaying for getting exposure to their preferred outcomes for a story in progress. With all of that said, these predictions about the (very) slim chances of Bitcoin's price surpassing its prior all-time highs to reach $150,000 practically in the blink of an eye are pretty well grounded. Expand CRYPTO : BTC Bitcoin Today's Change ( -2.11 %) $ -1445.89 Current Price $ 66941.00 Key Data Points Market Cap $1.3T Day's Range $ 66925.00 - $ 68473.00 52wk Range $ 60255.56 - $ 126079.89 Volume 25B Right now, Bitcoin sits around $67,000 after a shockingly powerful upward move on Feb. 26. But tagging $150,000 would require the coin to explode by more than double in approximately a month. And such moves are unprecedented, at least outside of very rare occurrences in the coin's early history, like its absurd upward explosion of 449% in November 2013. Today, that kind of sprint probably isn't possible. What I see coming next In my view, Bitcoin's near term looks like it'll continue to be a tug-of-war between unfavorable market and economic factors and spurts of adoption; the pac...

In early March 2026, Qualcomm and its peers pushed back against draft U.S. rules on AI chip export controls, while the company also highlighted new AI, robotics, and 6G initiatives and industry partnerships announced around Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Despite fresh collaborations in private wireless for utilities and new robotics and edge AI platforms, investors are focused on weakening sales projections and tighter export scrutiny that could limit Qualcomm’s future addressable markets. We’ll now examine how concerns over stricter U.S. AI chip export controls could reshape Qualcomm’s previously balanced investment narrative. Outshine the giants: these . Advertisement QUALCOMM Investment Narrative Recap To own Qualcomm today, you have to believe its shift from smartphones into AI at the edge, automotive, and industrial IoT can offset softer handset demand and export headwinds. The key short term catalyst is whether AI and edge design wins start to show up in earnings, while the biggest current risk is tighter U.S. AI chip export controls that could restrict access to important international customers. The recent rule drafts materially increase that policy overhang. Among the recent announcements, the expanded Anterix partnership stands out because it directly supports Qualcomm’s industrial IoT and private wireless catalyst. By putting Snapdragon SDX35-3 and SDX32-3 modems at the heart of private 4G and 5G grids for utilities, Qualcomm is tying its connectivity roadmap to long duration infrastructure spending. This may help offset some handset and export-related uncertainty if industrial IoT growth shows up consistently in future results. Yet even with these AI and IoT tailwinds, investors should be aware that export rules and geopolitics could still... QUALCOMM's narrative projects $46.9 billion revenue and $12.2 billion earnings by 2028. This requires 2.7% yearly revenue growth and about a $0.6 billion earnings increase from $11.6 billion today. , a 43% upsi...

(RTTNews) - The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced settled charges against the New York Stock Exchange LLC (NYSE), imposing a civil penalty of $9 million. The penalty stems from a January 2023 incident in which NYSE failed to conduct opening auctions for more than 2,800 securities. According to the SEC's order, the disruption occurred on January 24, 2023, when NYSE inadvertently ran its primary and backup trading systems simultaneously. This caused the primary system to incorrectly treat the opening auctions for thousands of securities as already completed, resulting in the auctions not being run. The SEC found that NYSE lacked written policies and procedures to monitor whether opening auctions had occurred. The exchange was unaware of the full scope of the issue for nearly 90 minutes after trading began. The failure led to market-wide impacts, including price-triggered restrictions, trading pauses in 84 securities, and thousands of canceled trades. The SEC concluded that NYSE violated Rule 1001(a)(2)(vii) of Regulation Systems Compliance and Integrity (Regulation SCI) and Section 19(g)(1) of the Exchange Act, which requires exchanges to comply with their own rules. Without admitting or denying the findings, NYSE agreed to a cease-and-desist order in addition to the $9 million penalty.

Buying dividend stocks is always a smart plan. They have historically outperformed non-dividend payers by more than two-to-one (9.2% annualized return compared to 4.3% over the last 50 years, according to data from Hartford Funds and Ned Davis Research). The best returns have come from dividend growers (10.2% annual returns). This data suggests that investing in companies with histories of growing their dividends would be a wise idea. Four top dividend growers are Realty Income (NYSE: O), Brookfield Infrastructure (NYSE: BIPC)(NYSE: BIP), PepsiCo (NASDAQ: PEP), and Medtronic (NYSE: MDT). They all have great records of increasing their dividends, which should continue.

Realty Income Realty Income built its business to pay dependable dividends that steadily rise. The real estate investment trust (REIT) has made 658 consecutive monthly dividend payments throughout its history. It has raised its payout 130 times since its public market listing in 1994, including for the last 100 quarters in a row.
