The officers and directors of a company tend to have a unique inside view into the business, so when these insiders make purchases, investors are wise to take notice. Presumably the only reason for a company insider to choose to take their hard-earned cash and use it to buy stock in the open market, is that they expect to make money — maybe they find the stock very undervalued, or maybe they see exciting progress within the company, or maybe both. Within the 30 components of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, only eight companies have experienced such buying over the trailing six month period, one of which was Johnson & Johnson (Symbol: JNJ), where an investment totaling $257.7K was made by Director John G. Morikis. Click Here to Learn Which Other Seven Dow Components Also Had Recent Insider Buying » Purchased Insider Title Shares Price/Share Value 11/26/2025 John G. Morikis Director 1,250 $206.15 $257,687.50 Morikis's average cost works out to $206.15/share. Shares of Johnson & Johnson were changing hands at $245.50 at last check, trading down about 0.7% on Wednesday. The chart below shows the one year performance of JNJ shares, versus its 200 day moving average: Looking at the chart above, JNJ's low point in its 52 week range is $141.50 per share, with $251.71 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $245.50. The current annualized dividend paid by Johnson & Johnson is $5.2/share, currently paid in quarterly installments, and its most recent dividend ex-date was on 02/24/2026. Below is a long-term dividend history chart for JNJ, which can be of good help in judging whether the most recent dividend with approx. 2.1% annualized yield is likely to continue.

In this series, we look through the most recent Dividend Channel ''DividendRank'' report, and then we cherry pick only those companies that have experienced insider buying within the past six months. The officers and directors of a company tend to have a unique insider's view of the business, and presumably the only reason an insider would choose to take their hard-earned cash and use it to buy stock in the open market, is that they expect to make money — maybe they find the stock very undervalued, or maybe they see exciting progress within the company, or maybe both. So when stocks turn up that see insider buying, and are also top ranked, investors are wise to take notice.

A Biden-era rule sought to stabilize child care. Why Trump wants it gone toggle caption Nadezhda1906/Getty Images Winter can be especially challenging for Michelle Wright, owner of Michelle's Place Child Care Center, with two locations in southwestern Illinois, across the Mississippi River from St. Louis. Seasonal illnesses and bad weather often keep kids home. On certain days, Wright finds herself scrambling to figure out if she'll be able to pay her teachers. "That staff comes ready to work, maybe spent gas [money], maybe took an Uber, a bus to get here, and then six kids are out and I know the numbers are down," she says. "I have to send that staff home." Sponsor Message That's because many states, including Illinois, use their own money and federal funds to pay out child care subsidies for low-income families based on attendance. When overall attendance for the month drops below 70%, Wright stands to lose some of the income she was expecting. It's a unique challenge for child care providers like Wright who operate in some of America's poorer communities. Some 90% of the families Wright serves receive child care subsidies, so most of her income comes from the state, with payments made after the care has been provided. Wright knows things would be easier if she had opened her centers in more affluent areas. Families that don't qualify for subsidies and instead pay for child care on their own typically pay up front. They're on the hook for the tuition whether their children attend or not, so providers can count on that income. toggle caption Andrea Hsu/NPR In 2024, the Biden administration finalized a rule aimed at giving providers like Wright more predictability. The rule requires states to pay child care subsidies the way most American families pay tuition – in advance and based on enrollment, not on who shows up. A number of states have made the switch. Others, including Illinois, applied for waivers, giving them more time to comply with the rule. But now, the T...

Ohio Dominican University didn’t make a bond payment due on March 1 — the latest sign of the school’s financial woes. The missed payment comes as the Columbus, Ohio-based private Catholic liberal arts university has been confronting deficits for years. UMB Bank, the trustee for bondholders, disclosed the missed payment in a Monday regulatory filing . Since 2021, enrollment has dropped about 15% to 1,139 students in fall 2025, according to its financial disclosures. This year, at least five colleges have announced plans to shutter or be acquired. That includes religious schools, Providence Christian College and Lourdes University , which have faced enrollment pressures because they appeal to a niche market. Several schools have been recently downgraded by credit ratings companies, which have cited enrollment declines as a result of demographic constraints. Ohio Dominican sold bonds with no credit rating. Read More: Too Many Colleges, Too Few Kids: Birth Rate Drop Hits US Schools Ohio Dominican, originally chartered in 1911 as the Literary Institute of St. Mary of the Springs, was founded as a school for women by the Dominican Sisters, according to its website . It became coeducational in 1964. A spokesperson for the university declined to comment on the missed payment, citing a confidential relationship with bondholders, and a spokesperson for UMB declined to comment further. The school sold muni bonds in 2018, and about $47 million of that debt is still outstanding, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Last year, the university tapped a debt service reserve fund to make a bond payment, a step that investors view as a sign of financial stress. In a November filing , the school said its leadership team and board of trustees had worked to reduce deficits over the prior three fiscal years. “In addition, ODU has worked substantially in cooperation with its bondholders to address its long-term debt,” the filing said.

Alexander Shapovalov/iStock Editorial via Getty Images I'm still a bull on PUMA SE ( PMMAF ) ( PUMSY ) (PUMG.DE). PMMAF's FY26 results should get better, considering the read-across from the above-consensus fourth quarter showing. The new investor ANTA ( ANPDY ) could have a favorable impact on its geographical expansion and product sourcing. Q4 Numbers Weren't As Bad As Feared The group published a set of slides revealing its recent financials on Thursday, Feb 26. I was overly confident about PMMAF's ability to register "faster growth and margin expansion" in my prior January 10, 2025, article . Its topline went down 27% year-on-year to €1.57 billion in Oct-Dec '25. During the same timeframe, the firm also suffered from a normalized EBIT loss of €0.23 billion. PMMAF referred to '25 as a "year of reset" in the investor presentation. It also drew attention to various "right-sizing measures" carried out during 2H2025. Restructuring Exercise Earnings Disclosure As per the chart presented above, it has been de-emphasizing third-party distribution and prioritizing full-price digital transactions. I can understand why B2B and online revenues dropped 28% and 20%, respectively, in 4Q on constant currency terms. "Gross Profit Margin/GPM" deteriorated by 750bps YoY to 40.2% in the recent three-month period. Its analyst call commentary credited the lower GPM to "increased promotions in the wholesale channel and inventory reserves resulting from the distribution cleanup." There were also unfavorable fixed-cost leverage effects. The company's "Operating Expenses" or "OpEx" was down 8% for the final quarter of last year. That's modest compared to the high-20s percent fall in turnover. But PMMAF's quarterly turnover represented a 6% beat versus consensus. The sell-side's "Operating Profit/OP" projection was an inferior -€255 million. These figures were sourced from S&P Capital IQ. In my opinion, certain product and geographical segments delivered positive surprises. PMMAF's "Asia-...

The annual accounts of Kaldalón hf. for the year 2025 were approved by the company's board of directors on 4 March 2026. Key highlights of the 2025 Annual Accounts: All amounts are in million ISK unless otherwise stated. Annual Accounts are published in Icelandic. Jón Þór Gunnarsson, CEO “Kaldalón performed well in 2025 and made strong progress. The Company’s ambitious targets are now within reach. Three years ago, the Company presented a value-accretive growth plan through 2026. The plan envisioned investment properties of ISK 100 billion, or annualised revenues of ISK 8 billion. By then, the Company would be a major real estate company in the Capital Region, with solid diversification and strong customers. This scale would also support operational efficiency for customers and shareholders alike. The strategy clearly called for significant and rapid growth. The Company has fully delivered on the requirements and expectations created by this strategic direction. The integration of properties into the portfolio has progressed well. The Company has worked closely with customers on the development of their operations within Kaldalón’s properties and on the development of new properties. In parallel, the Company’s financing has developed positively. Despite being in a transformation and growth phase, the Company has consistently delivered positive results, with operating profit exceeding net finance costs. With the transactions currently being finalised, the Company remains on track to achieve its stated targets. This is a positive milestone. The path to these targets has been shaped by increased competition and high interest rates affecting the business environment. Kaldalón has consistently adhered to a return-driven investment approach and invested in the asset classes prioritised by the Company. This year, as Kaldalón reaches its targets, growth will shift to a relatively slower pace. The Company will nonetheless take advantage of attractive opportunities in the mar...

Gary Yeowell/DigitalVision via Getty Images Investment Overview I had last covered MakeMyTrip Limited ( MMYT ) stock on March 12, 2025, with a “Sell” rating. I opined that MakeMyTrip has ample headroom for growth in the Indian travel and tourism industry. However, valuations were stretched, and a correction was imminent. This thesis has played out well with MMYT stock correcting by 39.86% since coverage. Further, MMYT stock traded at highs of $125 in February 2025. At current levels of $55.9, the correction from all-time highs has been 55.3%. During this phase of correction, MakeMyTrip has continued to report steady top-line growth coupled with improving adjusted operating profit. In my view, the deep correction provides a good opportunity for accumulation, and I upgrade MMYT stock from “Sell” to “Buy.” However, given multiple uncertainties in the global economy on the back of trade agreements and geopolitical tensions, it makes sense to pursue gradual accumulation rather than considering a big plunge. This coverage focuses on the fundamentals, valuations, and the catalysts with a time horizon of 24 to 36 months. Structural Tailwinds for the Indian Travel & Tourism Industry In April 2025, the World Travel & Tourism Council forecasted that travel & tourism “will inject $16.5TN into the global economy.” Further, between 2025 and 2035, the global tourism industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.5%. In comparison, India’s travel industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12% to 15% for the next five years. While domestic travel is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12% to 13%, international travel is likely to grow at a faster pace of 18% to 20%. If these projections hold good, India is among the most attractive travel and tourism markets from an investment perspective. In my view, these projections are not “significantly” optimistic considering the following factors: First, India has surpassed China as the world’s most populous country. At the same time, India has one of ...

Artificial intelligence will be a focal point of the scientific agenda at Beijing’s annual legislative meeting and coming five-year plan, as China and the US pursue divergent AI paths putting their tech ecosystems at odds. Chinese companies have embraced an open-source approach to AI development, which has rapidly scaled usage of their models worldwide and sped up AI adoption across domestic industries, including healthcare, energy and transport. Advertisement Meanwhile, US-based companies have largely followed a closed-off, paid approach that may limit how these models become integrated into daily life and slow the adoption of advanced AI-reliant technologies. An open-source AI model developed by the Chinese start-up DeepSeek has changed how the world views the country’s AI capabilities and ambitions.

German startup Neura Robotics is raising about €1 billion ($1.2 billion) in a funding round backed by stablecoin issuer Tether Holdings SA to develop an artificial-intelligence-powered humanoid robot. The round values the Metzingen-based company at about €4 billion and could be followed by additional fund-raising, people familiar with the matter said, asking not to be identified because the information is not public. A spokesperson for Neura declined to comment. Tether didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. The investment would mark the latest move in a spree of dealmaking by Tether, the issuer of world’s largest stablecoin USDT. Stablecoins — digital tokens usually pegged to a fiat currency like the dollar — have risen in popularity as a potential alternative form of payment. Tether has been expanding beyond its core crypto business, backing AI and data startups. It has funded brain-computer firm Blackrock Neurotech and Italian robotics startup Generative Bionics. Investors are looking to humanoids as the next potential wave of artificial intelligence, funding companies including Figure AI, Dexterity and Apptronik — which raised $520 million in February. The market for AI-powered robots and autonomous machines has the potential to balloon into a trillion-dollar opportunity by 2035, a team of Barclays analysts wrote last month in a report titled “The Decade of the Robot.” Many companies in China are also rushing to build AI-powered robots. Device maker Honor Device Co. unveiled its first humanoid on Sunday at the MWC Barcelona tech conference, performing remote-controlled gestures and poses. Hangzhou startup Unitree showcased robots that did parkour moves and mimicked Jackie Chan’s iconic Drunken Master style at China’s annual Spring Festival gala last month.
