Investors in artificial intelligence (AI) stocks have closely followed one stock quarter after quarter: Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) . That's because the company has built an AI chip empire and, over the past few years, has proven its ability to stay on top. Nvidia has been generating record earnings thanks to this market position, and as investors piled into the stock, it even became the world's biggest company -- market capitalization roared past $4 trillion last year. So, it's not surprising that investors watch for any news from Nvidia that may signal what's to come. Analysts predict the AI market will reach into the trillions of dollars in just a few years, and companies from Alphabet to Amazon recently announced increased spending on AI infrastructure. Still, some investors worry about the risk that spending may outpace demand -- and that certain stocks may not be able to live up to expectations, especially considering their valuations. All of this means investors are likely to focus on something happening on Feb. 25. Will Nvidia stock soar after that moment? The evidence is piling up, and here's what it shows. Continue reading
Eli Lilly is priced for perfection thanks to its GLP-1 drugs, while Wall Street seems to have forgotten about these two high-yield healthcare stocks.

Eli Lilly is priced for perfection thanks to its GLP-1 drugs, while Wall Street seems to have forgotten about these two high-yield healthcare stocks. There are almost always some companies doing well, even when competitors in the same industry are sinking. Right now, investor enthusiasm has GLP-1 weight loss drug leader Eli Lilly (LLY 0.17%) riding high, with a lofty price-to-earnings ratio of 46. Its dividend yield is a tiny 0.6%(in part, because of its strong share-price performance). The sinking shares of competitors Novo Nordisk (NVO 1.67%) and Pfizer (PFE +0.49%) will be much more attractive if you are a contrarian, have a value bias, or are a dividend lover. Here's what you need to know. Novo Nordisk is the second fiddle Eli Lilly's 2025 revenue was supercharged by its Mounjaro (for diabetes) and Zepbound (for weight loss) GLP-1 drugs. Mounjaro's sales rose 99% in 2025, while Zepbound's sales jumped 175%. By comparison, Novo Nordisk's obesity drugs only experienced growth of 31% in 2025. Most people would consider 31% growth a strong showing, but when you compare it to Eli Lilly, it appears rather paltry. Worse, Novo Nordisk is warning that a pricing agreement with the U.S. government will lead to weak financial results in 2026. Investors have pummeled the stock price, which is down 66% since mid-2024. This could be a buying opportunity for long-term value investors. Notably, the P/E ratio is 13, and the 3.9% dividend yield is well covered, given the 40% payout ratio. The big story, however, is Novo Nordisk's newly introduced GLP-1 pill, which could greatly expand the number of consumers willing to use the company's weight loss medication. The company expects improved performance in 2027. Pfizer is playing catch-up Pfizer's internally generated GLP-1 drug candidate was unsuccessful. The company is attempting to catch up to Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk via partnerships and acquisitions. However, Pfizer has a long and successful history of innovation. It may not b...

Laser1987 Through effective cost management, fleet optimization, and with the help of a more constructive supply-demand environment amid route reductions by rival Spirit Airlines ( FLYYQ ) Frontier Group ( ULCC ) navigated the extended government shutdown and competition from legacy carriers in the low-cost segment to report Q4 results that were flat from a year earlier and better than Wall Street’s expectations. "As we look ahead to fiscal 2026, we are encouraged by demand trends and are laser focused on returning Frontier to profitability, strengthening our competitive position, and driving enhanced value for our stakeholders. To achieve this, we're executing a strategy centered on four key priorities: rightsizing our fleet, strengthening our cost discipline, reducing cancellations and improving on-time performance, and maturing customer loyalty,” said Frontier CEO Jimmy Dempsey. The carrier’s total revenue was slightly lower from a year ago at $997M, while lower cost per available seat mile (CASM) helped insulate profits from lower revenue, resulting in a profit of $0.23 per share, unchanged from the same quarter last year and 10 cents better than anticipated. Revenue per available seat mile (RASM) declined 0.5%, while adjusted RASM improved by 0.4% to 9.6 cents. At the same time, CASM excluding the cost of fuel was down 1% to 7.4 cents as fuel costs were down 1.6%. For the current quarter, Frontier ( ULCC ) expects capacity growth to decline by 1% to 2% and to report an adjusted loss of $0.26 to $0.44 per share. This compares to the consensus estimate for a loss of $0.28 per share. For FY26, the carrier expects capacity growth to be down 10%, contributing to an adjusted loss of $0.40 to a profit of $0.50 per share versus estimates for a loss of $0.02. The company also expects to allocate $200M to $250M to capital expenditures. As part of its Q4 results, Frontier ( ULCC ) also announced it reached a non-binding agreement with AerCap Holdings for the early return ...

yasindmrblk/E+ via Getty Images Investment Thesis Let me cut to the chase. Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU ) is still a great Strong Buy. The company's earnings report confirms that since my last coverage of the stock. And the company is riding on a structural surge in memory demand fueled by AI. Yet the stock market is behaving as if a downturn is imminent. In my view, Micron Technology is being mispriced as a cyclical laggard when it's actually a key player at the center of the AI computing boom. This disconnect forms the core of my thesis. I definitely see a classic case for a company that is priced for yesterday's problems instead of tomorrow's opportunities. And that is where I exactly believe that an investor can gain an edge. MU's Q1 2026 results were outstanding, and they weren't a one-off fluke. Revenue jumped to $13.64Bn as MUC smashed past its guidance range. Gross margins increased by 45% to 56.8%, and Non-GAAP EPS hit $4.78. This represented a 175% increase. In the CEO's words, MU delivered "record revenue and significant margin expansion" across all its business units. It is important to note that Micron's guidance implies the growth is just getting started. And this is because the Q2 2026 revenue is expected to surge by 132% y/y with EPS expected to increase by 480%. I mean, these are staggering numbers that underscore Micron's transformation from a memory cycle survivor into an AI era growth story. Yet, despite this momentum in its numbers, the market has not yet fully caught on. I believe that many investors are still viewing MU through a rearview mirror. That is to say, the market is still viewing the company as a commodity DRAM supplier doomed to repeat past boom-bust cycles. And if I am being honest, memory will likely always have cycles, but something fundamental has changed. AI has elevated memory business from a supporting component to a strategic asset. I would say that right now, Memory is now essential to AI cognitive functions. In short, wha...

Jewish activists have heckled Nigel Farage at the launch of a Jewish members’ organisation for Reform UK and accused the party of planning to use the new group as cover for persecuting other minorities. Farage spoke at the inaugural event on Tuesday night of the Reform Jewish Alliance (RJA), which he said would help the party target up to 15 parliamentary seats. Activists stood up in the middle of Farage’s speech and accused him of advocating policies under which past Jewish refugees would have been barred from the UK. They included Carla Bloom, who recalled her own family’s history of facing persecution and of fighting the far right in the 1930s. She said: “My mother didn’t fight the Mosley fascists in Cable Street for this.” Farage told the event, held in a function room of the Central synagogue in London and attended by about 200 people, that “Judeo-Christian principles” were the foundation of everything Britain had achieved. He said he decided to set up the organisation after meeting the family of Emily Damari, a British woman taken hostage by Hamas during its attack on Israel in October 2023, because there had been no effective campaign seeking her release. The hecklers, from the group Na’amod, questioned Farage’s credibility and said they believed the allegations of the MP’s former schoolmates from Dulwich college who have accused him of making antisemitic comments. Farage has rejected allegations of antisemitism and racism. Josh Cohen, 32, said he had been disgusted to hear talk at the event of Jews as “model immigrants”, because it was aimed at paving the way for persecution of other minorities. “We are disgusted by antisemitism but we believe Reform are an active threat to the Muslim community and to immigrants and asylum-seeker communities in the UK,” he told the Guardian. “Our own family experience of escaping persecution and our knowledge of Jewish history is instructive, so when they attack immigrants we feel a moral duty to stand up. We know our histor...

Apollo Global Management Inc. -backed Michaels Cos. is seeking to raise around $4.85 billion in debt to help refinance its capital structure, according to people familiar with the matter. The arts-and-crafts retailer is shopping a seven-year $1.1 billion first lien term loan, with the offering being led by UBS Group AG. , the people said. The broader financing will also include $1.7 billion of other first lien debt, a $1.1 billion asset-backed facility, and $950 million in additional second lien secured debt. Pricing on the loan is being discussed at 98 cents on the dollar, while the margin range is between 4.75 and 5 percentage points above the benchmark, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing private information. The Irving, Texas-based company has posted consistently strong results following President Donald Trump’s tariff announcement in April, which hit the retail industry with severe headwinds. Preliminary results reported last week show same-store fourth-quarter sales rose by 7.9% to 8.2%. In May, the company’s bonds plunged as low as 34 cents on the dollar, but have nearly tripled since in anticipation that the retailer was preparing to refinance the debt, Bloomberg reported earlier this month. High yield retailer bond spreads for issuers such as Michaels “have continued to tighten to the broader index, as high yield’s spread gap is at the lowest since June 2024,” Bloomberg Intelligence credit analysts Mike Campellone and Tatiana Bellometti said in a note. Read More: Michaels’ Comeback Hits New Peak With Bonds Near 100 Cents Again Michaels’ 5.25% and 7.875% bonds are currently trading at 99.94 and 99.50 cents on the dollar as of 9am New York time, according to Trace. A lender call for the loan is scheduled at 10:30am New York time on Wednesday, while lender commitments are due February 19.

Following three of the warmest years on record , as scientists reckon with climate tipping points and states and cities grapple with the escalating cost of extreme weather and more intense wildfires , the Trump administration this week is expected to formally eliminate the U.S. government’s role in controlling greenhouse gas pollution. By revoking its 17-year-old scientific finding that greenhouse gases endanger public health and welfare, the Environmental Protection Agency will demolish the legal underpinning of its authority to act on climate change under the Clean Air Act. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin will be alongside President Donald Trump for an event Wednesday focused on boosting U.S. use of coal, as mercury and air toxics standards are repealed. That is expected to be a prelude to Zeldin finalizing the endangerment finding repeal, an assignment the president handed him in an executive order signed on the first day of his second term in office.

Vanguard Russell 2000 is a high-quality ETF, but you can find a winner within its portfolio that can beat the fund in 2026 and beyond. There are plenty of good reasons to buy Vanguard Russell 2000 (VTWO 1.35%) these days. It's a Vanguard index fund, so you know you're getting access to a basket of stocks at a low cost. Vanguard Russell 2000's 0.03% expense ratio means that the fund operator will take just $30 out of a $10,000 position over the course of the year to cover its management fees. There's also the allure of the index. The Russell 2000 consists of the smallest two-thirds of the Russell 3000. Trading at an earnings multiple in the high teens may not seem cheap, but the Russell 2000 is a bargain compared to the more widely followed market gauges. Momentum is also in the ETF's favor. After years of underperformance, small-cap stocks have been resilient market beaters over the past year. Now comes the hard part. There is nothing wrong with the Vanguard Russell 2000 offering. It's one of the best -- if not the best -- Russell 2000 ETFs. I wanted to pick one name from the index that could perform even better. I decided to screen only for stocks yielding more than the index average of 1.1%, and that eliminated about two-thirds of the entries. Then I nixed any stocks in the Russell 2000 that are currently losing money or have an earnings multiple above 18. This cut that playing field in half. Many of what I was left with were financial stocks. That's not surprising given how financial services investments tend to have low valuations and reasonable yields. One final screen: I decided to screen for earnings growth by limiting the forward P/E ratio to less than 5. That left me with a mere four stocks in the Russell 2000. I found what I was looking for.

Wall Street bonuses, along with an aggressive savings plan, has helped shrink New York City’s expected two-year budget gap by roughly $5 billion, according to Mayor Zohran Mamdani . “I’m glad to report that by assuming an aggressive posture on savings without compromising city services, incorporating updated revenue and bonus estimates, and using in-year reserves, we have lowered that $12 billion gap to $7 billion,” Mamdani said on Wednesday in an address to lawmakers in Albany. Earlier this year, the city’s new mayor painted a grim picture of New York’s finances, saying the fiscal situation was in a “crisis.” He still maintains there are challenges, but noted his office has made progress in closing the hole.

He asked for a 2% personal income tax increase on the richest New Yorkers, saying that an individual earning $1 million a year can afford another $20,000 in levies. “That 2% tax would resolve nearly half of our budget deficit. I will continue to advocate for these policies not only because they offer the most direct route out of this budget crisis, but because they will transform what is possible in our state,” Mamdani said.

Coming into the report, there had been growing concerns about the economy. The stock market got a nice surprise to start the day after the Bureau of Labor Statistics released a delayed January jobs report that was well received by investors. The U.S. economy added 130,000 jobs in January, more than double the 55,000 economists had estimated. The unemployment rate fell 10 basis points (0.1%) from the prior month to 4.3%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose as much as 250 points, although it had given back a good amount of those gains, as of 10:06 a.m. ET. The other major indexes followed a similar path. The 130,000 increase in nonfarm payrolls is the highest monthly figure since December 2024. The job gains came mainly from the healthcare and social assistance sectors. Average hourly earnings in January also increased 0.4% from the prior month, higher than expected, and 3.7% year over year, in line with expectations. There is often a push-and-pull dynamic around strong economic data, as it typically signals a lower likelihood of future interest rate cuts. But here is why the data from this morning is lifting the stock market today. The economy had been showing signs of weakness The U.S. economy has been trying to thread the needle between avoiding a recession and not having too strong of an economy that leads to elevated inflation and prevents the Federal Reserve from cutting rates. That's why, in recent years, strong jobs data hasn't always been well-received. But today, investors were looking for strong data due to recent signs of a weak economy. There have been many reports of layoffs and a job market where companies have not been firing people, but also not been hiring. Many are also concerned that artificial intelligence could automate and therefore eliminate more jobs, stoking those concerns. Additionally, consumer delinquencies recently hit the highest level in roughly a decade. The U.S. economy is largely powered by consumer spending, but consumer savings b...
