Victor Golmer/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Intro I think it’s fair to say that it’s been a really tough time lately for Novo Nordisk A/S ( NVO ) shareholders. It looked as if the oral Wegovy approval just days before Christmas was the final box that needed to be ticked—the catalyst that would finally open the stock’s path higher—and for a moment it genuinely seemed that way: the shares began to climb, pushing confidently above $60 only a couple of weeks ago, supported by the company’s reports of rocketing early pill sales. But the momentum broke in a pretty shocking way with the earnings announcement on February 3, when the company revealed a sharp drop in revenue and profit forecasts through 2026, contrary to the growth that investors had anticipated. As a result, shares plunged about 15% and broke the $50 mark yet again on February 4. I’ve been a cautious Novo bull since late last summer, when the stock also reached and fell through the $50 mark for the first time since 2022, after a stretch of several cuts to growth forecasts. My last piece , " Oral Wegovy Approval Is the Critical 2026 Lifeline Novo Nordisk Needs ," was written right after the news broke that the FDA had approved oral Wegovy. I can conclude today, even more strongly after Novo’s latest news, that the point about the new pill being essential for them to stay competitive is very much true. Without it, the growth forecast would, in my view, have been even weaker, probably somewhere in the minus 20+% range. In light of the latest volatile developments, it seemed like an appropriate moment to update Novo’s current situation—to dig into whether the new CEO had done a bit of the classic "throw a little extra out the window now so it’s easier to beat expectations later" move or whether there was something more to worry about. Just as I was diving into the latest material, some extra drama was added to the mix - Hims & Hers Health, Inc. ( HIMS ) unveiled a $49‑per‑month oral alternative to Wegovy. So...

This advanced nuclear reactor designer had no news to report. So what drove shares higher? Extending the 14.4% rise that it locked in on Friday's close from where it ended on Thursday, Oklo (OKLO +5.56%) stock continued its climb higher today. While the company neither reported positive news nor received favorable analyst coverage, investors continued to respond to the U.S. Department of Energy's announcement from last week. As of the end of regular trading hours at 4:00 p.m. ET, shares of Oklo had risen 5.6%, retreating slightly from an earlier climb of 6.2%. An award from the Department of Energy has charged up investors' excitement Last Thursday, the Department of Energy (DoE) announced awards totaling more than $19 million to five U.S. companies engaged in the research and development of recycling technologies for used nuclear fuel. Oklo was named as a recipient of an award for its plan to study how radioactive materials of used nuclear fuel behave in hot liquid salt. Oklo will take these findings to help it design more efficient and safer nuclear fuel recycling facilities.

In support of this, Oklo announced last September that it's developing a nuclear fuel recycling facility in Tennessee that's capable of recycling used nuclear fuel into fuel for reactors such as its Aurora powerhouse. According to Oklo, this will be the first facility of its sort in the United States. What's a nuclear energy investor to do now? Oklo is one of several companies at the forefront of the nuclear energy renaissance currently underway in the United States. Still, its interest in converting and using recycled nuclear fuel distinguishes it from other nuclear energy leaders su...

William_Potter/iStock via Getty Images The Vanguard Intermediate-Term Bond ETF ( BIV ) is a low-cost, passively managed intermediate bond strategy designed to provide investors with fixed income exposure to US bonds with a 5–10-year maturity. This fixed income strategy can be used by a variety of investors to gain exposure to intermediate bonds, to target a specific point in the yield curve, or to diversify one’s fixed income portfolio. About the Vanguard Intermediate-Term Bond ETF BIV was launched by Vanguard on April 3, 2007. BIV has a low expense ratio of 3 bps, aligned with other fixed income strategies managed by Vanguard. BIV exhibits substantial liquidity with nearly $28b in net assets, with an average of $158mm in share value changing hands on a daily basis, providing investors with ease of trading for fixed income rotational strategies. The fund has a moderate turnover rate of 55%. BIV pays out a robust monthly distribution rate, with the last twelve months paying out $3.14/share, yielding 4%. The distribution has exhibited growth during the period since 2022, as the Federal Reserve began its rate-tightening efforts following the zero interest rate policy [ZIRP]. Despite the Federal Funds rate being cut to a target rate of 3.50-3.75% in recent months, the distribution of BIV has held steady, likely the result of the fund’s investment in 5-10-year issuances, which may be relatively less sensitive to rate changes. The average duration of the fund is 6 years, meaning that the fund will be modestly sensitive to changes in the interest rate, but not nearly as sensitive as long-dated issuances. Corporate Filings FRED BIV is indexed to the Bloomberg U.S. 5–10 Year Government/Credit Float Adjusted Index, which tracks US dollar-denominated, fixed-rate Treasuries, government-related, and corporate securities with investment-grade ratings. This Index is limited to fixed income securities with a minimum of 5 years and upwards of 10 years to maturity. The fund is broadl...

Middlesbrough took over at the top of the Championship as an impressive first-half performance secure a 2-1 victory at Sheffield United. Goals from Tommy Conway and Riley McGree during the opening 45 minutes proved to be crucial, taking Boro two points clear of Coventry at the top after a sixth successive win. Patrick Bamford gave Sheffield United hope with a goal midway through the second half, but their task was made more difficult when Joe Rothwell, on debut, was sent off 10 minutes from time and they could not find an equaliser. The Blades midfielder Gus Hamer saw an early curling effort pushed away by the goalkeeper Sol Brynn before Middlesbrough took control, producing some incisive attacking moves to open up the home defence on a number of occasions. Hayden Hackney slipped a good ball through to Conway on the left-hand side of the area but from a promising position the striker blazed his shot wide. Adilson Malanda saw a header saved by Michael Cooper and Morgan Whittaker also put himself in goalscoring positions, heading straight at Cooper and then seeing his shot flash beyond the far post. The breakthrough came in the 19th minute when Luke Ayling, Whittaker and McGree combined well to set up Conway, who produced a fine finish. Hackney went close to putting Boro further ahead, firing inches wide of Cooper’s right-hand post before Bamford had a great chance to equalise, bringing the ball down from a superb Hamer pass and firing a fraction wide of the target. Brynn came to Middlesbrough’s rescue with a superb save to keep out Hamer’s well-struck effort and Cooper did likewise for Sheffield United, getting down well to turn Whittaker’s shot wide. The visitors went 2-0 up in the final minute of the half when Hackney’s drive struck Cooper’s right-hand post, the ball bounced up and McGree was quickest to react, heading the loose ball into the unguarded net. As the home side looked for an early second-half goal to inspire a revival, an inviting ball across the face ...

In 2023, we marveled at the sheer mass of Lenovo's Legion Go , a 1.88-pound, 11.8-inch-wide monstrosity of a Windows gaming handheld. In 2026, though, Ayaneo unveiled details of its Next II handheld , which puts Lenovo's big boy to shame while also offering heftier specs and a higher price than most other Windows gaming handhelds. Let's focus on the bulk first. The Ayaneo Next II weighs in at a truly wrist-straining 3.14 pounds, making it more than twice as heavy in the hands as the Steam Deck OLED (not to mention 2022's original Ayaneo Next , which weighed a much more reasonable 1.58 pounds). The absolute unit also measures 13.45 inches wide and 10.3 inches tall, according to Ayaneo's spec sheet , giving it a footprint approximately 60 percent larger than the Switch 2 (with Joy-Cons attached). Ayaneo packs some seriously powerful portable PC performance into all that bulk, though. The high-end version of the system sports a Ryzen AI Max+ 395 chipset with 16 Zen5 cores alongside a Radeon 8060S with 40 RDNA3.5 compute units. That should give this massive portable performance comparable to a desktop with an RTX 4060 or a gaming laptop like last year's high-end ROG Flow Z13 . Read full article Comments

Hims & Hers Health (NYSE:HIMS), a direct-to-consumer telehealth platform, closed Monday at $19.33, down 16.03%. The stock dropped as news of a lawsuit from Novo Nordisk (NYSE:NVO) came on top of Friday’s regulatory crackdown on non-FDA-approved compounds. Trading volume reached 143.5 million shares, coming in about 688% above its three-month average of 18.2 million shares. Hims & Hers IPO'd in 2019 and has grown 97% since going public. How the markets moved today The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX:^GSPC) added 0.47% to finish Monday at 6,965, while the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX:^IXIC) gained 0.90% to close at 23,239. Among telehealth and online pharmacy peers, Teladoc Health (NYSE:TDOC) closed at $4.98, down 0.60%, and American Well (NYSE:AMWL) finished at $4.29, slipping 3.38% as investors weighed regulatory risks. What this means for investors Hims & Hers is down 26.89% in the past five days, hit by a double legal and regulatory whammy. The firm announced over the weekend that it would withdraw its copycat version of the obesity drug Wegovy amid pressure from regulators. It had planned to offer the semaglutide pill at a significant discount. Today’s Novo Nordisk lawsuit asked the court to ban Hims & Hers from selling the compounded copies of its patented drugs. Last week, the FDA promised to clamp down on the unauthorized use of GLP-1 active pharmaceutical ingredients. Hims & Hers announced last year that it would shift its focus away from the controversial compounded medicines and towards other conditions and AI health capabilities. This week’s news makes that pivot all the more important. Should you buy stock in Hims & Hers Health right now?

Clear Channel Outdoor ( CCO ) on Monday said it has entered into an agreement to be acquired by Mubadala Capital, in partnership with TWG Global, at an enterprise value of $6.2 billion. Under the terms of the deal , the investor group will acquire 100% of Clear Channel's common stock, with shareholders receiving $2.43 per share in cash, representing a 71% premium to the company's share price of $1.42 on October 16, the last trading day before media reports regarding a potential transaction. Shares of Clear Channel were up nearly 7% in extended trading on Monday. As per the agreement, Clear Channel will have a 45 day "go-shop" period during which it is permitted to solicit, evaluate, and consider alternative acquisitions. The go-shop period will expire on March 26, the billboard company said. "We believe this transaction delivers compelling value to our shareholders, strengthens our financial flexibility by reducing debt and increasing cash flow to invest in the business, and positions Clear Channel for its next phase of long-term growth," said Clear Channel CEO Scott Wells. Wade Davis , who partnered with Mubadala Capital and TWG on the transaction, is expected to join Clear Channel as executive chairman, the company added. Earlier in October, Bloomberg reported that Mubadala Capital is exploring a purchase of Clear Channel. This came following activist investor Anson Funds Management pushing the outdoor advertising company to pursue a sale. In 2023, another activist investor, Legion Partners, also pushed Clear Channel to evaluate a sale of the entire company. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the third quarter of this year.

Key Points Waymo will use its new funding to expand into 20 new U.S. cities and internationally. The autonomous vehicle market could be worth an estimated $2 trillion by 2030. Alphabet is building a portfolio of AI opportunities that include self-driving cars, cloud services, and its Gemini chatbot. 10 stocks we like better than Alphabet › Waymo, Alphabet's (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) driverless car company, recently announced that it had raised an impressive $16 billion in its latest funding round. The money came from about 10 investors, including some money from Alphabet itself, and it means that Waymo now has a valuation of $126 billion -- more than double its value from just over two years ago. Waymo's capital raise is a great example of Alphabet's expanding AI footprint, and it's just one piece of the broader AI opportunity for Alphabet. Here's why it could help make Alphabet a top AI stock in 2026 and beyond. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » How Waymo's $16 billion capital raise helps Alphabet's AI ambitions Autonomous vehicles (AVs) require significant technical sophistication -- including artificial intelligence computing -- to be reliable and safe, and Alphabet has been investing in its self-driving technology for more than a decade. The company's early moves are now paying off, with Waymo completing a staggering 15 million rides last year alone -- up more the 3x from the previous year. The company already operates in six U.S. cities, and Waymo said the new investment will help it expand to 20 new U.S. cities this year, as well as internationally. Importantly, Waymo says its advanced technology and its current expansion make its self-driving service a viable commercial product. Waymo's co-CEOs, Tekedra Mawakana and Dmitri Dolgov, said in a blog post: We are no longer pro...

As Team GB’s Mia Brookes stood at the top of a 150ft‑high ramp before her final jump of the big air competition, she had the pounding heavy metal of Pantera blasting her ears, and the smell of an Olympic medal in her nostrils. To grab it, though, the snowboarding sensation knew she would have to land a trick she had never attempted before on snow – and one so dangerous that she feared it would put her in hospital. Brookes didn’t flinch. She bombed down the ramp – part Evel Knievel, part Simone Biles – flew off it, and then twisted her body through four and a half rotations. The trick? A backside 1620 – one that had been completed only once in history. It looked perfect. Until she overspun slightly and landed on her heels. And with that her dreams of an Olympic medal had faded into fourth place. Later the 19-year-old revealed that she had no plans to attempt the trick – until she stood in fourth place before her last jump. “It’s not like it’s a trick that I could do,” she said. “I’ve only ever done it on the airbag and the last time I tried it was five months ago. So that was the first time I’ve ever tried it on snow. But sometimes you’ve just got to grit your teeth and get it done. “I thought I’d got it and I did get it. I got it to my feet but I just gave it too much power, listening to my music too loud, I spun it too quickly. But yeah, I’m pumped. “I was listening to a lot of Pantera. I tried it and I’m not lying in a hospital bed after this, to be honest. All jokes aside, it’s a gnarly trick to do. There is a higher risk, especially when you know I would be the second woman to do it. So, yeah it’s pretty scary.” Most agreed that had Brookes landed it she would have secured at least a bronze medal, and possibly silver. Instead she could only applaud as Japan’s Kokomo Murase took gold, New Zealand’s Zoi Sadowski-Synnott won silver, with the Korean Yu Seung-eun claiming bronze. So close. Yet so far. And alas, it was that sort of day for Team GB. Before the star...

Kyndryl (NYSE:KD), an IT infrastructure and cloud services provider, closed Monday at $10.59, down 54.94%. The stock sold off after earnings and revenue missed estimates, an accounting review and delayed 10-Q filing were disclosed, and senior finance leaders departed. Trading volume reached 59.3 million shares, about 1,777% above its three-month average of 3.2 million shares. Kyndryl IPO'd in 2021 and has fallen 74% since going public. How the markets moved today The broader U.S. markets were firmer Monday, with the S&P 500 up 0.45% to 6,963 and the Nasdaq Composite rising 0.90% to 23,239. Within information technology services, industry peers International Business Machines closed at $296.34 (-0.87%) and DXC Technology finished at $14.33 (-5.72%), underscoring pressure across traditional IT services providers. What this means for investors Kyndryl’s Q3 earnings report went about as bad as possible. First, the company’s sales and earnings figures fell short of Wall Street’s expectations, with revenue rising only 3%. However, the major issue that hit the stock was its announcement that its Form 10-Q (full quarterly report) would be delayed after it “flagged material weaknesses in internal controls.” This led to a leadership shake-up in the finance and legal departments, most notably the CFO’s departure. Making matters worse, given the nature and scale of today’s stock price decline, numerous law firms have announced securities-fraud investigations into Kyndryl, creating yet another headwind for the stock. Kyndryl is deeply discounted valuation-wise now, but until there is more clarity on these new issues, I’m staying away. Should you buy stock in Kyndryl right now?

People have long fretted about how artificial intelligence (AI) will eliminate human jobs. Now it seems AI could just be as devastating to computer software. The recent “SaaSpocalypse” is a case in point. It saw roughly US$300 billion vaporised in a matter of days from the value of software and data stocks in the United States. The bloodbath was triggered by the release of new AI versions by US pioneers Anthropic and OpenAI, which promise to deploy autonomous AI agents to replace enterprise software by performing tasks at the same level or better. That poses a direct existential threat to the software-as-a-service (SaaS) sector. Now there are concerns over whether China’s own SaaS sector will face a potential contagion spilling over from the US and entering the mainland Chinese market. There might be a short-term impact. In reality, though, China is likely to leapfrog straight to a position of AI dominance without having to work through the SaaS phase. That could be similar to how the country and other developing economies skipped the intermittent stages to 5G networks in telecommunications. Advertisement The SaaS sector in the US developed early and is huge. That is why the AI impact has been so devastating. By comparison, China’s software service sector has been much less developed, with slower adoption of cloud services and a weaker appetite for recurrent subscription fees. Overall information technology spending accounts for just 3 per cent of China’s GDP, compared with roughly 9 per cent in the US, according to S&P Global Ratings’ estimates. Platform giants such as Alibaba (which owns the South China Morning Post), Tencent and ByteDance increasingly dominate cloud infrastructure, large language models – the basis of many AI models – and software development. These companies are also among the biggest players in Chinese AI. Moreover, an increasing number of innovative mainland start-ups are focusing on AI capacities and applications.
