Is Intel Corporation (INTC) the Most Traded US Stocks So Far in 2026? Yahoo Finance

One news headline this week had a whiff of déjà vu about it. Nuclear startup Deep Fission announced that it was going public, hoping to garner investor support to build subterranean reactors to power AI data centers. Wait, didn’t I already write that story? I could have sworn that I did. Oh right, I did. Last September, Deep Fission said that it had gone public via a reverse merger with Surfside Acquisition, a Delaware shell company, a transaction in which a private company acquires an existing publicly listed entity to gain a stock market listing — raising $30 million in a concurrent private placement at $3 a share. Now it’s seeking $157 million in a Nasdaq IPO at $24 to $26 a share. You can see my confusion. Turns out the previous public listing was public in name only. The reverse merger with Surfside was completed, making Deep Fission a reporting company with SEC obligations, but its stock never actually traded. The company had said it intended to list on the OTCQB, a marketplace for developing companies that don’t meet the listing requirements of major exchanges like the NYSE or Nasdaq. But searches for Deep Fission on OTCQB don’t return any results, and the company, in its S-1, denied that its stock had ever been publicly traded. In response to questions from TechCrunch, Deep Fission declined to comment, citing the quiet period before its IPO. Deep Fission’s new public offering on Nasdaq is following the more traditional IPO route, with an offering that would value the company at up to $1.66 billion. It’s a sizable figure for a company that one year ago was struggling to raise a $15 million funding round. Stranger still, the picture painted in the S-1 filed on May 20 is arguably bleaker than the one outlined in the December filing with the SEC. Its timeline for turning on its first reactor has slipped. Further, back in December, it had hoped to achieve criticality — the point at which a nuclear chain reaction becomes self-sustaining — by July 2026. Now, it won...

Litecoin (LTC 1.98%), which was launched in Oct. 2011, started trading at $0.30 per token. It reached an all-time high of $412.96 in May 2021, but it now trades at about $54. A $1,000 investment in its first trade would have grown to $1.38 million before shrinking back to about $180,000 today. That 17,900% gain is still impressive, but some investors might think Litecoin is losing ground to leading cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC 1.58%). Let's see why it's still relevant in today's crypto market -- and where it might head over the next few years. What sets Litecoin apart from other cryptocurrencies? Charlie Lee, a software engineer at Alphabet's Google, created Litecoin by forking Bitcoin's open source code and tweaking a few parameters. Lee accelerated Litecoin's block time (the average time it takes to verify transactions and generate a new block on the blockchain) to 2.5 minutes, compared to Bitcoin's 10 minutes. He also set Litecoin's supply at 84 million tokens, compared to Bitcoin's 21 million. Litecoin still uses the same energy-intensive proof-of-work (PoW) consensus mechanism as Bitcoin to mine its tokens. However, Lee switched Litecoin from Bitcoin's SHA-256 algorithm, which required more powerful application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) miners, to Scrypt. This memory-intensive algorithm was initially more accessible to ordinary CPUs and GPUs. Like Bitcoin, Litecoin underwent "halvings" every four years to cut its mining rewards in half. Those halvings made Litecoin harder to mine, and it can now only be mined profitably with ASIC miners.

山西沁源縣煤礦爆炸，當局修訂死亡人數是82人、2人失聯，另有128人受傷治療。 [早前報道] 山西長治市沁源縣有煤礦爆炸，死亡人數增至90人。中共總書記、國家主席習近平作出重要指示，要全力救治傷者，查明事故原因，依法嚴肅追責。 發生爆炸的煤礦外，停泊了大量救護車及應急救援車。應急管理部調派6支國家礦山應急救援隊，共340多人到場，救援人員以及專家組討論救援計劃。 央視報道指，爆炸發生後煤礦內有積水，圖則與現場環境不相符，加上部分員工懷疑違規，無帶定位卡，增加救援難度。 事發在周五晚近7時半，山西通洲集團，位於長治市沁源縣的留神峪煤礦發生爆炸。新華社報道，井內監測系統曾顯示一氧化碳濃度超標，礦井內當時有247人。 有自行逃出礦工憶述事發經過。 受傷礦工王勇說：「沒聽到任何聲響，就是出現一股煙，當時聞到和放炮一樣的硫磺味，我就叫人跑，跑的過程當中有被煙嗆到的人，當時我也暈了。後來躺了差不多有一個多小時，我自己醒過來，又提旁邊的人叫起來，一起出井了。」 傷者送到沁源縣人民醫院救治，院方指大部分都是吸入有毒氣體。 沁源縣人民醫院醫生康麗娜指出：「目前我們主要治療方案是採取吸氧、脫水，降顱壓，高壓氧以至心理治療。」 中共總書記、國家主席習近平作出重要指示，強調要全力救治傷者，科學組織搜救，妥善做好善後處置工作，並要查明事故原因，依法嚴肅追責。國務院總理李強作出批示，要全力搜救被困人員、救治傷者，做好善後工作，及時準確發布消息，副總理張國清已趕赴現場指導救援處理工作。 國務院事故調查組指，將較真碰硬開展事故調查，依法依規嚴厲懲處。據報涉事煤礦所屬公司，去年兩度因安全問題被行政處罰，負責人目前已被當局拘捕。

巴基斯坦斡旋下，伊朗表示經過數星期對話，與美國的觀點正朝著更加一致的方向發展，雙方正處於最終敲定諒解備忘錄的階段。美國亦稱有進展。 伊朗總統佩澤希齊揚周六會見巴基斯坦陸軍參謀長穆尼爾，討論兩國關係和地區形勢。 伊朗傳媒報道，伊美雙方需要交換的信息已通過巴基斯坦傳達。伊朗談判代表伊斯蘭議會議長卡利巴夫，會見穆尼爾時，強調不會背離國家及人民的權利，他稱伊朗武裝力量在停火期間加強了自身能力，又批評美國毫無誠信，無法被伊朗信任。 在印度訪問的美國國務卿魯比奧強調，不會容許伊朗挾持全球能源市場為人質，不過雙方就解決問題已經取得進展。 美國總統特朗普周五表示，戰事「很快結束」，但以面對關鍵時刻為由，決定周末改為留在華盛頓坐鎮白宮不出席長子唐納德的婚禮。 美國傳媒早前引述消息報道，特朗普曾與國家安全團隊開會，正認真考慮恢復對伊朗發動攻勢，除非談判在最後關頭取得突破。

cagkansayin/iStock via Getty Images The bullish case for USA Rare Earth ( USAR ) is easy to understand. USAR is positioned as an early stage innovator in one of the most strategically important industrial categories - critical minerals, domestic rare earth supply chains and permanent magnet manufacturing. The strategic importance theme comes from the requirement to reduce dependence on China, which means USAR will be supported actively by the government (increasing odds of reaching a successful steady end state). The demand side is going through its own multi-year or even multi-decade tailwind from EVs, AI infrastructure, industrial automation and defense systems - each a hot demand source on its own. USAR is attempting to position itself at the center of that narrative by building a vertically integrated domestic rare earth platform spanning mining, processing and magnet manufacturing capacity across the US and allied supply chains. That's a very valuable positioning at the right time. But what has a strategic position got to do with shareholder economics? My analysis walks beyond the narrative of how rare earths matter (they clearly do) and into what portion of the future value created is likely to accrue to current shareholders, at current prices, after accounting for capital intensity, dilution, execution complexity and time. Viewed from that lens, I find current prices prohibitive in terms of creating long term value. I rate USAR as a Hold , fully expecting the strong narrative to potentially make shorting difficult and near term moves could even reward the narrative handsomely. The cautions lens is more long term, where the intrinsic long term value appears to have been overpriced by the markets currently. Treat the Hold rating as an "Avoid" recommendation because any drop in the market's appetite for narratives and long duration assumptions could mean sharp corrections - buying for long term value does not look appealing in that scenario.

Andrzej Rostek/iStock via Getty Images AGNC ( AGNC ) delivered solid earnings for the last quarter in April, despite headwinds from inflation that is making federal fund rate cuts less likely in the short term. However, the REIT improved its asset yields on a sequential basis and grew its interest income significantly faster than its interest expenses, allowing for a sharp up-tick in net interest income, a key measure of performance for a heavily leveraged mortgage-backed securities REIT. Shares of AGNC continue to trade at a large premium to book value, mainly because investors see current inflationary trends as transitory. I firmly believe that the Federal Reserve is going to lower interest rates later this year, and likely more aggressively in 2027, which would benefit AGNC's significant MBS holdings. Therefore, I am not going to sell a single share until the Fed is finally starting to lower interest rates! Seeking Alpha Previous rating I rated AGNC a ‘Strong Buy’ in January 2026 -- Strong Investment Setup --mainly because of a MBS revaluation catalyst related to falling federal fund rates. With inflation rebounding in March and April, amid higher energy prices in the context of the U.S.-Iran conflict, rate cuts in the short term have become less probable. In the long run, however, rate cuts will be unavoidable and therefore ultimately benefit AGNC's mortgage-backed securities portfolio. Stable MBS portfolio, drastically rising NII Mortgage securities are the bread and butter of specialized REITs like AGNC as they deliver predictable interest income, though their prices can fluctuate widely based off of interest rate changes. AGNC maintained an overall stable investment portfolio in the first-quarter, with total investments of $94.6B, down only about $0.1B sequentially. The majority of investments are 30-year mortgage-backed securities which are the core of the mortgage REIT's portfolio: 30-year agency MBS which accounted for a massive 85% investment securities s...

Choosing between Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) and Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) requires looking at their distinct paths toward profitability. Rivian builds rugged trucks and SUVs for the outdoors, while Lucid specializes in ultra-luxury sedans with record-setting range. Both companies are scaling production during a pivotal period for the automotive market while facing intense competition for market share. The case for Rivian Automotive Rivian Automotive focuses on the production of high-end electric adventure vehicles, including the R1T pickup and the R1S SUV. The company also operates a commercial division that sells delivery vans directly to business clients like Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN). Customer concentration like this adds a layer of risk to the business, as a significant portion of its future success is tied to a single buyer. Rivian builds vehicles for the adventure-oriented segment of consumer discretionary stocks and hopes to expand its footprint in global markets. For FY 2025, revenue reached nearly $5.4 billion, which was 8.4% higher than the previous year. Despite this growth, the company reported a net loss of approximately $3.6 billion for the period.

Derick Hudson/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Investment Thesis Meta ( META ) has been one of the most frustrating stocks to wrap our heads around. This is a mega-cap company, growing topline at a healthy level, holds a monopolistic position in the social media space, but its EBITDA multiple trades at mid-teens, while its closest peer ( GOOG ) trades at 28x. This low multiple is due to the fact that the firm has been committing a lot of cash to fund its AI infrastructure build-out. While these expenses are not structural and wouldn't chokehold the operations of the firm if ever they were to be paused, they still channel a significant amount of cash away from shareholders' pockets currently. Unlike in the case of GOOG, ( MSFT ) and ( AMZN ), META doesn't have computing services like the cloud to sell to AI enterprises, instead, the GPU purchases and the data center build-outs are solely for internal use to improve the recommendation algorithm so the firm can charge more for ad impressions. In the last earnings call , the CEO Mark said, " We're also using AI to unlock more inventory by auto translating and dubbing videos into a viewer's local language, enabling us to recommend a more diverse set of content. Over 0.5 billion users on each of Facebook and Instagram are now watching AI translated videos weekly ". Even though these unlocked features are impressive, the ROI currently looks incremental and not justifying a premium valuation. Another headwind for Meta is that the firm is a net buyer of the compute shortage and not the seller. The compute shortage constantly changes form, affecting net buyers subsequently, firstly it was a GPU shortage, and now it's a memory and optics shortage. All resulting in Meta increasing its CapEx guidance to keep up with price increases, making matters worse, META even took on more debt to further the infrastructure buildout. Meta grew revenue by 26.18% on a TTM basis, while capex grew by 47% to $19 billion, resulting in a capex-to-...

Many investors surely placed wagers on the leading aerospace & defense stock leading into and at the war’s onset, but broader Industrials sector weakness and the AI trade may be pressuring the stock. Indeed, with the SpaceX ( SPCX ) IPO on tap, new ways of harnessing the skies and space above could be an emerging bearish thesis for traditional aerospace & defense companies. What’s more, with a still-premium valuation, the onus is on the bulls heading into the middle of the year. I downgraded GE to a hold in Q3 last year . Shares are up 12%, but the stock is down rather sharply since late February, all while the S&P 500 has notched record highs. I reiterate a hold rating. I’ll provide a look at the Q1, along with refreshed fundamental and technical takes. GE Lagging XLI & The S&P 500 YTD Stockcharts.com Back in April, GE reported a solid set of quarterly results. Q1 non-GAAP EPS of $1.86 topped the Wall Street consensus forecast of $1.60, while revenue of $11.6 billion, up 29% from the same period a year earlier, was a material $890 million beat. The company merely reaffirmed FY 2026 guidance, but noted that the top and bottom lines were trending toward the upper end of the previously provided ranges.

Key Points The geopolitical conflict in the Middle East has pushed oil prices higher. Long-term investors need to consider the history of energy prices, not just the current price of oil. Most investors should focus on diversified oil companies that have proven they can survive the entire energy cycle. 10 stocks we like better than Chevron › Given the importance of oil and natural gas to the global economy, every investor should probably have some exposure to the energy sector. I personally own one oil stock, yet I'm not the least bit worried about oil prices. That's notable because the geopolitical conflict in the Middle East has made high oil prices headline-grabbing news. If all you care about is finding a way to profit from rising oil prices over the short term, you'll probably want to buy a dedicated energy producer like Devon Energy (NYSE: DVN). Notably, its production is unaffected by the Middle East disruptions because it is U.S.-focused. But if you are a long-term investor, you'll want to take a more balanced approach to the energy sector, buying stocks like ExxonMobil (NYSE: XOM), Chevron (NYSE: CVX), and, in my case, TotalEnergies (NYSE: TTE). Here's why these three energy giants are my top oil stocks right now. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire?

However, unlike an upstream-focused business, an integrated energy company also moves energy in the midstream, via infrastructure assets such as pipelines. And it processes these vital fuels in the downstream segment of the broader ...

During its launch last month, the pricing started at 0.1 yuan and went up to 24 yuan (roughly $0.01 - $3.48) per million tokens, depending on usage. “The deepseek-v4-pro model API pricing will be officially adjusted to 1/4 of the original price after the 75% discount promotion ends on 2026/05/31,” DeepSeek ( DEEPSEEK ) said. V4, adapted to run on Huawei Technologies’ Ascend 950 AI chips, would cost up to 12 ​times more for its pro version compared to its less powerful Flash ​version ⁠ because of “ constraints in high-end compute capacity, ” limiting availability, the company said last month. It is not immediately clear if increased supplies of Huawei’s Ascend 950 chips led to the pricing cut. More on Hangzhou DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence Co., Ltd.
