Iran has started restoring limited internet connectivity to some businesses and individuals, a sign it’s seeking to mitigate the economic damage from the nationwide shutdown that started with the outbreak of war with the US and Israel more than six weeks ago. State-backed telecommunications firms are offering a “pro internet” package that businesses can apply for, according to digital rights group ASL19 . This has led to a trickle of access to the outside world, several internet monitoring firms noted. “There has been a very modest increase in connectivity,” said Alp Toker, founder of NetBlocks. “It’s not a major restoration and the fact that there is new infrastructure being built around tiered access points to a more extended disruption.” The move follows comments from an Iranian official that domestic businesses were losing $30 million to $40 million a day due to the internet blackout. Indirect damages are as high as $80 million a day, said Afshin Kolahi , chairman of the Knowledge-Based Economy Commission at the Iran Chamber of Commerce, during a recorded hearing shared on social media. The Iranian government blocked access to the web shortly after the US and Israel launched strikes against the country in late February. This cut off most Iranians’ ability to communicate with the outside world. It followed an earlier shutdown in January during anti-regime protests. Now in its seventh week, it’s the world’s longest nationwide blackout since the Arab Spring in the early 2010s. To obtain access, companies in Iran must go through a formal identity verification process to buy one of the broadband or mobile data packages, giving the service provider an explanation for why connectivity is needed and providing supporting documentation, according to digital rights groups ASL19 and Miaan Group as well as screenshots of promotional materials from Iranian telecom Rightel. Those who are granted access can connect to online services outside of Iran, mirroring the white-listed ...

FactoryTh/iStock via Getty Images Ero Copper ( ERO ) down 6.5% in Tuesday's trading as Goldman Sachs downgraded shares to Neutral from Buy with a $31 price target after the stock more than doubled, a move that can be attributed mostly to strong commodities prices and production growth, despite slower thanexpected operational momentum. Goldman analyst Marcio Farid now sees Ero's ( ERO ) risk/reward as less attractive due to limited copper price upside, some remaining operational uncertainties, and a less favorable valuation, adding that momentum related to the Furnas project is a key to watch for the potential to become more constructive. Ero ( ERO ) has underperformed its guidance for the past three years, Farid said, believing FY 2026 guidance still requires additional operational improvement to be met, and he thinks it is unlikely that the market will pay for a re-rate before the company delivers. The Goldman Sachs commodities team expects copper prices to come in flat to marginally down in 2026-27, with the global copper market likely to be in surplus for this year, and it sees copper prices not being supported by fundamentals, making it more vulnerable to another move lowershould the economic outlook deteriorate and investors de-risk.

In this article NVDA Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang delivers the keynote address at the GTC AI Conference in San Jose, California, on March 18, 2025. Josh Edelson | Afp | Getty Images Nvidia stock is on a tear, rising more than 18% over the past ten days. It's the longest winning streak the artificial intelligence chip giant has seen since another ten-day rise in 2023. Shares are trading about 8% lower than October's all-time high of $212.19, adjusted for a 10-for-1 stock split that occurred in 2024. The steady climb comes amid explosive AI demand, as giants like Meta , Amazon , Google and Microsoft snap up Nvidia's AI chips. At last month's annual GTC conference, CEO Jensen Huang said Nvidia has more than $1 trillion in orders for its graphics processing units through 2027, including its current Blackwell and next-generation Vera Rubin GPUs.

It's a sharp incline from five years ago, when gaming was the company's largest revenue driver. Now, Nvidia can't make AI chips fast enough. At GTC in March, Nvidia unveiled new types of chips for powering AI, including a language processing unit made with technology acquired with its $20 billion purchase of chip startup Groq in December. Nvidia also unveiled a standalone rack of its newest Vera central processing units at GTC, as agentic AI shifts compute needs and creates a resurgence of demand for CPUs . Meta is the first major customer of Nvidia's standalone CPUs. In a sweeping deal announced in February, Meta committed to...

bjdlzx/E+ via Getty Images Major news struck the global telecom industry on April 14, 2026. Amazon.com, Inc. ( AMZN ) announced it intends to acquire Globalstar ( GSAT ) for $11.6 billion. Share of the target company soared 11% in the premarket, which should only add to gains in the State Street SPDR S&P Telecom ETF ( XTL ). GSAT is the largest holding in the ETF. I have a buy rating on XTL. With market-leading momentum and a still-reasonable valuation, I expect the space megatrend to continue benefiting the small ETF. Today, I’ll assess the fundamentals, outline the valuation, and do a technical deep dive. XTL: A Global Industry ETF Leader YoY Seeking Alpha According to the issuer , XTL seeks to track a modified equal-weighted index, providing diversified exposure to the telecommunications sector across large, mid, and small-cap companies. This fund covers sub-industries such as wireless services, integrated telecommunications, and equipment providers, allowing investors to take targeted strategic or tactical positions. XTL is a small ETF, with just $590 million in assets under management as of April 13, 2026. Its annual expense ratio is low to moderate at 35 basis points, while its trailing 12-month dividend yield is low at just 0.95%, about 0.2 percentage points below that of the S&P 500. Share-price momentum is pristine for XTL, currently an A+ according to Seeking Alpha’s quantitative scoring system. That strength helps XTL rank No. 1 out of 12 in its Sub Class and No. 27 out of 3701 overall on Seeking Alpha as the Q1 earnings season gets underway in earnest. But the fund is risky , given an elevated 28% annualized volatility figure and 41% turnover. In terms of liquidity , average daily volume is low at under 60,000 shares, while XTL’s median 30-day bid/ask spread is a bit wide at 19 basis points. So, I encourage prospective investors to use limit orders, particularly around the market open. Looking closer at the portfolio, the 5-star, Neutral-rated ETF by Mor...
