watch now VIDEO 2:45 02:45 Tom Brady on his newly relaxed diet, fast food partnerships CNBC Sport From Pizza Hut to Dunkin', Tom Brady is seemingly everywhere these days promoting food brands he once wouldn't have touched during his NFL playing days. The seven-time Super Bowl winning quarterback famously followed a strict health-focused diet and once referred to soda and sugary cereals as " poison for kids ." But Brady says he's softened his stance in retirement. "I think it's moderation in all things," Brady told CNBC's Alex Sherman in a recent interview while discussing his partnership with Ferrero, one of the world's biggest sweets makers. CNBC Sport's full interview with Brady will be released on Thursday. "I think there's probably been people who have gone overboard with the kind of rigidity of my lifestyle or diet," he said. "I have kids, and I have Halloweens and birthday parties, and we're like a normal family." Brady built his career on health and longevity, pillars that helped him to play top caliber football until age 45. He's also the co-founder TB12, a wellness brand centered on an anti-inflammatory diet, known for unconventional recipes such as avocado ice cream. Brady recently wound down his TB12 brand, folding it into the Nobull fitness brand . Now, when it comes to endorsements, Brady said he's focused more on creativity and connection. "It's good scripts and writing," he said, along with opportunities to engage with fans. During this year's Super Bowl, Brady debuted both a Pizza Hut ad in which he gets tackled by an elderly woman while delivering pizzas, and a Dunkin' ad spoofing "Good Will Hunting." Brady's partnership with Ferrero includes a campaign pegged to the 2026 World Cup. In the ad, Brady is shown taking a bite of a chocolate Crunch bar and posing next to a trophy filled with chocolatey, sugary snacks.

Nikolay Tsuguliev/iStock via Getty Images Embraer ( EMBJ ) on Tuesday said it completed a cold-weather testing campaign for its KC-390 Millennium military transport aircraft in Sweden, as manufacturers and armed forces place greater emphasis on operations in northern and Arctic environments. The tests were conducted at the Vidsel Test Range, where the aircraft was evaluated under low-temperature conditions. According to the company, crews carried out engine starts, system checks and short takeoff and landing operations in cold-weather scenarios. The KC-390 was also used to load and deploy heavy equipment, including SISU all-terrain military vehicles, while maintaining capacity for personnel and additional cargo. The trials were intended to assess how the aircraft performs in missions that require rapid transport and deployment in austere conditions. Embraer ( EMBJ ) said the campaign was designed to demonstrate the aircraft’s compatibility with so-called Agile Combat Employment concepts, which emphasize dispersed operations and the ability to move equipment and personnel quickly between locations. A company executive said the tests showed the aircraft could handle demanding missions in harsh environments and highlighted its ability to support operations in northern Europe and Arctic regions. The KC-390 is a medium-sized military transport aircraft that can be configured for multiple roles, including cargo transport and aerial refueling. The program is part of a broader effort by manufacturers to position aircraft for a wider range of operational scenarios as military planning increasingly incorporates extreme-weather and remote-area deployments.

The Southern Company ( SO ) snapped six straight sessions of gains on Tuesday as its shares settled 0.42% lower at $96.52. The company ended in the green in each session between March 23 and March 30. It added more than 3% during the period, compared to a 3% decline in the broader markets. Earlier this month, the company was upgraded at Evercore ISI as well as KeyBanc. Evercore analysts said Southern shares are poised to further break out to new highs, calling it a core utility holding backed by a favorable regulatory backdrop and potential upside from additions to its capital plan. Meanwhile, KeyBanc's Sophie Karp argued that the stock is fairly valued, and its Q4 earnings growth outlook revision and constructive news flow should further support the shares. Overall, Seeking Alpha analysts have a Hold rating for the stock. Seeking Alpha’s quant rating also suggests a Hold recommendation for The Southern Company, with a score of 3.20 out of 5. SO has been rated an A+ for profitability but has been graded a D+ for valuation. Wall Street analysts are rather bullish on the stock and have issued a Buy rating. On a year-to-date basis, the stock has inched up by over 10%, while in the past year it rose 4.68%, lagging the wider market.

Getty Images Investment Thesis For each of my articles, readers often leave numerous comments, to which I always try to respond, as it allows me to learn a great deal. While some readers ask interesting questions, other readers share their strategies and portfolios, and still others add new insights to my work, providing more accurate information and the latest news to clarify what I’ve previously written. For this, thank you all, since this is one of the main ways I improve as an analyst. I can't even imagine how much I wouldn't know if I didn't have quality feedback from readers. A while back, one of my posts received an interesting comment recommending the FT Vest Rising Dividend Achievers Target Inc ETF ( RDVI ), an improved version of the JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF ( JEPI ) that offers a yield-focused strategy for a low-volatility market. Without a doubt, the market is going through a difficult period right now, and instead of low market volatility, the VIX is rising above 30. Despite this, RDVI’s performance has held up well, with its share price movements roughly tracking those of its benchmarks—the State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust ( SPY ) and the Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 ETF ( QQQ ). That makes me think, if nothing else, about how RDVI managers are able to adapt to a chaotic market, mostly because they're betting on dividend aristocrats. Price Return, 1M Even though both funds are designed to generate high income, their strategies are different: while JEPI is a kind of alternative to a 60/40 portfolio with an emphasis on defensive stocks, RDVI focuses on capitalizing on quality growth by investing in a basket of dividend aristocrats. Under the current conditions of geopolitical instability and increased risks of the Fed shifting its monetary policy toward higher interest rates, RDVI's strategy appears preferable because, in contrast to JEPI, its strategy combines the fundamental strength of growth stocks with a structure of ATM options on the i...

So-CoAddict/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images The Campbell's Company ( CPB ) is an iconic American brand that has fallen out of investors' favor. As you can see in the chart below, the stock has had an extended period of weakness. In mid-March, Seeking Alpha came out with an article listing some of the most oversold mid-cap consumer staples, and surely enough, Campbell's was mentioned. Furthermore, the stock is now at levels not seen in over two decades. With the company having reported their earnings not long ago, today I will initiate coverage and see whether this multi-decade low is a generational buying opportunity or not. Seeking Alpha In the below analysis, it is shown that the fundamental setup is overall quite neutral currently. While the financials and near-term guidance are worrying, the dividend yield is very attractive. Furthermore, with the company actively trying to capture the cook-at-home opportunity and the valuation near multi-year lows, I believe there are good reasons for shareholders to hang onto the stock. As a result, I'm initiating Campbell's at a Hold rating. Brand Performance Campbell's Q2 Presentation In terms of how their brands fared in an uncertain macro environment, there was some variation between their two segments. Firstly, as shown above , for their M&B business, they did see an increase in consumption despite storm-related shipment delays. Therefore, it seems that they are indeed experiencing notable cooking-at-home tailwinds. With consumer confidence not being particularly strong, people may continue to visit restaurants less frequently and decide to eat at home, and that should help keep this segment relatively robust. Note that their dollar share remained unchanged. For their Snacks segment, it is a different story. You can see above that consumption fell 3%, while share dropped by 0.3 percentage points. This is potentially concerning, but the weakness here is quite intuitive if you think about it. While M&B may benefit from u...

J Studios The stock market ( SP500 ), ( COMP:IND ), ( DJI ) has accumulated significant oversold technical conditions that set the stage for sharp rebounds when positive catalysts emerge, according to Liz Ann Sonders, chief investment strategist at Charles Schwab. With less than 20% of the S&P 500 ( SP500 ) trading above their 50-day moving average, the market was positioned like a compressed spring before recent gains. “Sometimes that in and of itself means your sort of launch point,” Sonders said in an interview with CNBC. Reading investor sentiment has become increasingly complex in the current environment, Sonders explained. The traditional framework of institutional versus individual investors has given way to a more fragmented picture that includes retail traders and requires analyzing both what investors say and what they actually do with their money. “You’ve got to listen to what they’re saying, but also watch what they’re doing,” she noted, describing the current sentiment landscape as “a real jumbled sentiment picture.” The strategist emphasized that positioning can shift dramatically in response to headlines and social media posts. When asked about the potential for upside, Sonders framed the key question: “Are we positioned such that if you get a positive catalyst, do you have greater short-term upside by virtue of positioning having gotten washed out?” Beyond immediate market movements, Sonders warned that the economic ripple effects from current geopolitical tensions extend well beyond oil prices ( CL1:COM ), ( CO1:COM ). The supply chain disruptions affect liquefied natural gas ( UNG ), ( BOIL ), ( UNL ), refined products ( CRAK ), and even helium used in semiconductor ( SMH ), ( SOXX ), ( SOXL ) chip production. “The economic impacts of this, that story is not fully told yet,” she cautioned. Sonders drew distinctions between current conditions and the 2022 bear market, noting that energy distribution options and export routes were more flexible four ...
