Against Birmingham on Easter Monday, Kasey McAteer gave Ipswich supporters something to talk about other than Nigel Farage – namely the growing prospect of a return to the Premier League at the first attempt. In their first game since the Reform UK leader had been allowed to parade with a “Farage 10” Ipswich shirt at the stadium and linked himself with Kieran McKenna’s job, the hosts moved into the automatic promotion places. Farage’s visit on 23 March has divided the fans, even driven some of them away. The chair, Mark Ashton, has apologised “ for any hurt, pain or distress that’s been caused ”, while the club said they “remain apolitical and do not support any individual party”. A handful of club officials are understood to have known about Farage’s visit beforehand but Ipswich deny that he was invited. In a video posted on Reform’s X account, Farage appears to address a message “To Mark” when signing an Ipswich shirt. Supporters have been left to make up their own minds and there is a feeling among some that they are being lied to. Continue reading...

We're making two trades. We are selling 20 shares of Goldman Sachs at roughly $866 each. Following Monday's trade, Jim Cramer's Charitable Trust will own 185 shares of GS, decreasing its weight in the portfolio to 4.65% from 5.11%. In addition, we are buying 50 shares of Alphabet at roughly $298. Following the trade, the Trust will own 350 shares of GOOGL, increasing its weight in the portfolio to 3% from 2.57%. We added to Goldman Sachs twice on its mid-March pullback here and here , and are already up roughly 9% on average from those purchases. GS YTD mountain Goldman Sachs YTD The combination of those additional shares and the stock's rally off its March lows pushed this position to a more than 5% weight in the portfolio. Historically, we manage the Charitable Trust in a way that prevents any single position from becoming too large, with an over 5% threshold being the general guideline for when we take action and right-size the position. This isn't a change-in-thesis downgrade, but with bank earnings coming around the corner, we're making the trade to start the week and moving our rating back to a hold-equivalent 2 . From this sale, we will realize a gain of about 55% on the stock purchased in December 2024. GOOGL YTD mountain Alphabet YTD We're taking most of the sale proceeds from Goldman to further build up and lower our average cost basis in Alphabet. The stock has been volatile over the past two months — and a few weeks ago, it was hit hard after Alphabet and Meta Platforms were found negligent in a social media addiction trial. Both have since recovered. While there's a lot of noise surrounding the so-called Magnificent Seven stocks, our positive long-term thesis regarding Alphabet's AI leadership remains unchanged.

Sunshine Seeds/iStock via Getty Images Hopes for a couple of 25bps reductions in the Fed Funds rate that existed at the start of 2026 have been dashed. Soaring oil, diesel, gasoline, jet fuel, fertilizer and other commodity prices have pushed projected future inflation levels significantly higher. This is the result of the biggest chokepoint in the world, the Strait of Hormuz, being effectively closed for five weeks now. IEA, CRU, Bloomberg, Woods Mackenzie, S&P Global The Atlanta Fed's GDPNow lowered its forecast for Q1 GDP growth from 1.9% to 1.6% last week. The prospects for Q2 GDP growth will continue to fade for as long as the conflict in the Middle East drags on, in all probability. Whether a recession can be avoided, could well come down to just two words. Location and Duration. EIA Let's start with Location first. The last time oil surged to nearly $150 a barrel just before the Great Financial Crisis, the U.S. was producing approximately five million barrels a day of crude oil. That left the country as a large net importer of oil. However, thanks to the fracking revolution, the U.S. is projected to produce 13.6 million barrels per day of oil in 2026. While the nation exports some crude based products and imports others, the nation has largely become energy independent. EIA In addition, natural gas production has roughly doubled over the past 15 years, and the country is becoming the largest LNG exporter on the globe. That said the prices of oil, natural gas and other commodity prices are somewhat fungible. The U.S. economy will be negatively impacted by higher prices. Gasoline prices are up roughly a third since this war began. Negatively impacting consumers, a large portion were already struggling prior to this conflict. New York Fed, Equifax Importantly, diesel prices have gone from $3.50 a gallon at the beginning of 2026 to $5.40 a gallon at the end of March. And this will boost prices for every good that needs to be moved to market via truck or rail. U.S...

jetcityimage Longtime Tesla ( TSLA ) bear JPMorgan reiterated its Underweight rating on the EV and autonomy play on Monday ahead of the company's first-quarter earnings report. Analyst Ryan Brinkman pointed to Tesla's ( TSLA ) underwhelming Q1 deliveries report and year-over-year decline in energy storage installations. Brinkman and his team now expect Tesla ( TSLA ) to report Q1 EPS of $0.30 vs. the prior estimate of $0.43 and consensus mark of $0.38. "We continue to see large -60% downside to our $145 December 2026 price target and advise investors to approach TSLA shares with a high degree of caution, mindful of execution risk and the time value of money within the context of the materially stronger distant out-year earnings expectations implied by the rise in TSLA share price that has occurred alongside a material collapse in consensus for all performance metrics through at least the end of the decade," advised Brinkman. He noted that "incredibly," TSLA shares are more than 50% higher now than when delivery volume peaked in June 2022, despite the sluggish deliveries growth. Looking ahead, JPMorgan thinks the investment positives for Tesla ( TSLA ) of its highly differentiated business model, appealing product portfolio, and leading-edge technology are more than offset by above-average execution risk, rising competition, growing controversy in regard to the brand, and valuation that seems to be pricing in a lot.

Cotton futures in New York surged to the highest since December 2024 as traders weigh a preliminary government US planting report against an outlook for tighter global supplies this year. The most-active contract rose as much as 1.4%, to 71.93 cents per pound. USDA prospective plantings data released last week showed a larger-than-expected intended US cotton area, but given the current drought conditions in the country, the estimate scenario is viewed as optimistic. “Historically, actual USDA acreage figures often deviate meaningfully from early estimates, which could lead to a strong market reaction in either direction,” according to a Friday report from commodities broker Artigas do Brasil. On Wednesday, cotton futures posted their biggest drop since Oct. 30 before recovering much of the losses, as the higher acreage estimate came as a surprise. The market had expected adverse weather and weaker prices to curb planting, adding short-term pressure. “The market is somewhat concerned about the US crop, and it knows that Brazil, China and Australia — the other major players in the global market — are also reducing their production,” said Raphael Bulascoschi, a market intelligence analyst at StoneX. “So the market is adjusting to the prospect of a somewhat tighter balance.” In other soft commodities markets, arabica in New York rose as much as 1.2% to $2.990 a pound. StoneX forecasts a global coffee surplus of 10 million bags this year — the largest since 2020. Cotton futures traded up 0.6% to 71.56 cents a pound at 11:41 a.m. in New York Arabica coffee gained 0.6%, while raw sugar fell
