New York Attorney General Letitia James speaks to the media, after she attended a hearing and pleaded not guilty to charges that she defrauded her mortgage lender, outside the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, in Norfolk, Virginia, U.S., Oct. 24, 2025. Jonathan Ernst | Reuters Days before Super Bowl 60, New York Attorney General Letitia James has a message for consumers: Be careful about placing trades on prediction markets. "New Yorkers need to know the significant risks with unregulated prediction markets," James said in a statement Monday . "It's crystal clear: so-called prediction markets do not have the same consumer protections as regulated platforms. I urge all New Yorkers to be cautious of these platforms to protect their money." Prediction platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket are expected to generate billions of dollars in trading volume around the Super Bowl. The platforms offer event contracts that "masquerade" as bets, James said in the statement. Consumers can make trades on game events — similar to online sportsbooks like DraftKings or FanDuel — as well as on predetermined outcomes, such as which companies will advertise during the Super Bowl, an issue CNBC Sport reported on last week .

James warned there are concerns about the nascent prediction market industry, including "upholding prohibitions against insider betting and requiring regulatory review to ensure the financial stability and integrity of gambling operators."

is a news writer who covers the streaming wars, consumer tech, crypto, social media, and much more. Previously, she was a writer and editor at MUO. Unlike many of the companies stuffing AI into their browsers, Mozilla will soon give you a way to turn all of these features off. An update coming on February 24th will add a new “AI control” option to Firefox’s settings menu, allowing you to disable or enable the browser’s individual AI features, including access to a built-in AI chatbot, translations, AI tab group suggestions, and more. In December, Enzor-DeMeo promised an AI “kill switch” in response to users unhappy with Firefox’s embrace of AI. “Choice matters and demonstrating our commitment to choice is how we build and maintain trust,” Enzor-DeMeo wrote at the time. Now that the switch is on the way, and includes an option to disable all current and upcoming AI features. You can also manage whether Firefox uses AI to generate alt text for images in PDFs or to generate key points in link previews. “AI is changing the web, and people want very different things from it,” Ajit Varma, Firefox’s vice president of product, writes in the announcement. “We’ve heard from many who want nothing to do with AI. We’ve also heard from others who want AI tools that are genuinely useful. Listening to our community, alongside our ongoing commitment to offer choice, led us to build AI controls.”

As Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) prepares to report its fiscal fourth-quarter earnings, all eyes are on how the company navigated the critical holiday shopping season amid ongoing heavy investments in AI infrastructure. With the company having consistently beaten bottom-line estimates in recent quarters, another potential upside surprise could hinge on margin expansion and AWS’ backlog conversion. Estimates The Seattle, Washington-headquartered e-commerce behemoth is expected to publish its Q4 earnings on Thursday, February 5, at 4:00 pm ET. Market watchers’ consensus revenue estimate for the quarter is $211.19 billion, compared to $187.79 billion in Q4 FY24. The management’s most recent guidance calls for fourth-quarter sales in the range of $206.0 billion to $213.0 billion. It is estimated that earnings rose 5.4% YoY to $1.96 per share in the December quarter. Building on last year’s strong momentum, Amazon’s stock has climbed approximately 6% year-to-date, edging closer to the record highs set three months ago. The company’s robust fundamentals—driven by growth in AWS, resilient retail operations, and disciplined cost management—continue to attract investors. Despite its size, AMZN trades at a valuation that remains compelling compared to peers. Analysts remain optimistic, with recent target prices pointing to as much as 21% upside in 2026, underscoring confidence in the company’s long-term trajectory. Broad-based Growth In the September quarter, Amazon’s sales rose sharply to $180.2 billion from $158.9 billion in the prior-year period. Online sales rose 10% annually, while physical store sales rose 7%. As a result, Q3 net income climbed to $21.2 billion or $1.95 per share from $15.3 billion or $1.43 per share a year earlier. Earnings exceeded analysts’ estimates. Revenue growth for Amazon Web Services accelerated to 20.2% YoY. “Looking ahead, we see further opportunity to improve productivity in our global fulfillment and transportation network. We will continu...

Key Points SLV has delivered a markedly higher 1-year return than GLD, but with much steeper volatility and deeper drawdowns. GLD charges a slightly lower expense ratio and offers greater risk moderation, with a beta far below SLV's. Both funds are highly liquid and track physical metals, but their sector exposures and historical risk profiles differ significantly. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › The iShares Silver Trust (NYSEMKT:SLV) and SPDR Gold Shares (NYSEMKT:GLD) stand apart on recent performance, volatility, and cost—with SLV surging over the past year but GLD offering a smoother, lower-risk ride and a marginally lower fee. Both SLV and GLD are designed for investors looking to track the price of physical precious metals—silver and gold, respectively—without owning the metals directly. While each is a go-to choice for commodity exposure, this comparison highlights how their cost structures, risk profiles, and historical returns set them apart for different portfolio needs. Snapshot (cost & size) Metric SLV GLD Issuer IShares SPDR Expense ratio 0.50% 0.40% 1-yr return (as of 2026-01-30) 162.7% 72.4% Beta 0.50 0.16 AUM $51.5 billion $174.1 billion Beta measures price volatility relative to the S&P 500; beta is calculated from five-year weekly returns. The 1-yr return represents total return over the trailing 12 months. GLD is marginally more affordable on fees than SLV, with a 0.40% expense ratio versus SLV's 0.50%. Yield is not a factor in this comparison as neither fund distributes income.

Robert Way/iStock Editorial via Getty Images In my last article on NVIDIA Corporation ( NVDA ), I modeled the revenue upside from H200 sales to China at $4.37B to $17.5B per quarter, assuming the company splits the 25% fee with Chinese hyperscalers. Heading into the Q4 print, I have a high conviction that Nvidia didn't sell any data center GPUs in China, given that by mid-January, some reports suggested that Chinese customs authorities didn't allow the H200 chips to enter the region. Looking ahead, I think we may finally see sales in China ticking up in Q1 this year after reports that the Chinese regulator has finally approved the sale of 400,000 GPUs to some hyperscalers in this region. That said, I am downgrading my rating heading into the print due to two main risks. The main one is China's GPU exclusion from the Q1 FY27 guidance. Based on Huang’s remarks last week, I remain skeptical that the guidance will include revenue from this region. And so I'm looking forward to a good decision. And so we just have to wait patiently. I think the market is anticipating some revenue from the H200s in Q1, so a disappointment is not off the table. Second, I am spooked about gross margins falling from the mid-70 percent range. There are two factors that could pressure the bottom line of the company. As I discussed in my last coverage, if Nvidia absorbs 100% of the U.S. Government fee to sell the H200 GPU models, it could have a direct impact on gross margins. On top of that, the supercycle in high-bandwidth memory, or HBM, chips is leading to significant price hikes in DRAM costs, with some sources estimating 50% YOY price hikes in Q1 this year. Any gross margin disappointment (from a Q1 FY27 guidance perspective) could hurt the stock. That said, I remain bullish on the company’s long-term story, but I admit that the narrative is starting to show its first cracks. The Narrative Is Starting to Crack The story around Nvidia is no longer as strong as it was back in 2023 or 2024. ...

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) cracked down on lead-based products—including lead paint and leaded gasoline—in the 1970s because of its toxic effects on human health. Scientists at the University of Utah have analyzed human hair samples spanning nearly 100 years and found a 100-fold decrease in lead concentrations, concluding that this regulatory action was highly effective in achieving its stated objectives. They described their findings in a new paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. We've known about the dangers of lead exposure for a very long time—arguably since the second century BCE—so why conduct this research now? Per the authors, it's because there are growing concerns over the Trump administration's move last year to deregulate many key elements of the EPA's mission. Lead specifically has not yet been deregulated, but there are hints that there could be a loosening of enforcement of the 2024 Lead and Cooper rule requiring water systems to replace old lead pipes. “We should not forget the lessons of history. And the lesson is those regulations have been very important,” said co-author Thure Cerling . “Sometimes they seem onerous and mean that industry can't do exactly what they'd like to do when they want to do it or as quickly as they want to do it. But it's had really, really positive effects.” Read full article Comments

Earlier this month, we asked you to pick a team: hibernating on the sofa, or getting off it and getting fit. Well, the votes are now in – and the sofa was the clear winner. The Guardian’s journalism is independent. We will earn a commission if you buy something through an affiliate link. Learn more. We don’t blame you – January’s Arctic blasts and grey skies haven’t exactly been tempting us back outdoors. So it makes perfect sense that you’ve been looking for duvets, slippers and pyjamas to up the cosiness factor. Even when you’ve had to travel, you’ve wanted to snuggle down for a nap in a scarf-like neck pillow. Here are the things you loved the most this month. The concealer to tackle January’s dark circles Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Radiant concealer In her roundup of the best concealers, beauty writer Sarah Matthews chose this Charlotte Tilbury option as her top pick for tackling dark circles. So no surprise it was your top choice too in a month where we’re forced to get up in the dead of night. Rather than just covering dark circles, this concealer contains hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and vitamin C to hydrate, plump and brighten the skin. “If you’re wearing makeup anyway,” wrote Sarah, “why not invest in a multitasker?” It’s pricey per millilitre, though. The luxury duvet Woolroom Deluxe wool all seasons double duvet Bedding seems like a wise investment in winter, when you’re so loth to leave your bed. But your favourite was a surprise: not for you Panda’s the Cloud duvet, winner of the test, which Jane loved so much she bought it. No, for you, only luxury would do: Woolroom’s Deluxe three-in-one multi-season duvet. “Its percale cotton cover has a deliciously premium feel,” wrote Jane in her test of the best duvets. “Its traceable British wool filling is naturally hypoallergenic, temperature-regulating and sustainable.” The slippers you can wear with socks Regatta solace slippers “I’m a big fan of a mule slipper you can wear at the same time as your chun...

Key Points Visa's revenue and profits are rising at an impressive pace. The company's digital credentials should be even more important in the artificial intelligence era. 10 stocks we like better than Visa › Shares of Visa (NYSE: V) rose on Monday after the digital commerce leader reported solid growth metrics late last week. As of 2:35 p.m. EST, Visa's stock price was up more than 3%. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now, when you join Stock Advisor. See the stocks » Visa benefits from the expansion of the global economy Visa's net revenue climbed 15% year over year to $10.9 billion in the quarter ended Dec. 31. CEO Ryan McInerney said the gains were fueled by "resilient consumer spending and a strong holiday season." The total number of transactions processed on Visa's network increased by 9% to a whopping 69.4 billion. The payments giant saw particularly strong growth in its international operations, with cross-border volumes rising 12%. All told, Visa's adjusted net income grew 12% to $6.1 billion. Its adjusted earnings per share, which were boosted by stock buybacks, jumped 15% to $3.17. That bested Wall Street's estimates. Analysts had expected per-share profits of $3.14. Visa is positioning itself for the future of commerce During a conference call with investors, McInerney explained how Visa's offerings extend far beyond its traditional credit and debit cards. The core of our consumer payments business is the Visa credential. It is much more than a physical card; it can be digital, in a wallet, online, mobile. It's the connection point to the Visa network on top of which we're able to layer all types of services, solutions, and access now totaling more than 5 billion Visa credentials. Visa's credential-based strategy has it well-placed to benefit from the coming wave of cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence innovations, such as stablecoin payments and agentic AI comme...

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. AMD has surged 107.1% over the past year and easily outpaced rival NVIDIA Corporation’s NVDA gains of 63.8%. With both companies competing in the chip market, investors are left asking: can AMD continue its winning streak, and is it a good time to buy the stock? Zacks Investment Research Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Let’s find out – AMD: The AI Challenger Ready to Outgrow NVIDIA AMD may not match NVIDIA in market capitalization anytime soon, but its strong growth prospects give it plenty of room to catch up and possibly outpace NVIDIA in growth. Although AMD entered the artificial intelligence (AI) market later than its larger peers, it has rapidly closed the gap by offering advanced, competitively priced products relative to NVIDIA’s offerings. When soaring demand made NVIDIA’s Blackwell chips pricey, several customers, including OpenAI, began adopting AMD’s Instinct AI accelerators as an alternative to fulfill their needs. AMD’s chips are increasingly seen as a viable alternative to NVIDIA’s, with major industry players like International Business Machines Corporation IBM using them to advance their quantum computing initiatives. Several other companies are also increasing their faith in AMD’s products, with Oracle Corporation ORCL and AMD launching the first AI supercluster with 50,000 AMD graphics on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Similarly, Cisco Systems, Inc. CSCO and AMD are expanding AI cluster deployments with G42 in the UAE. Although AMD’s ROCm software hasn’t reached the popularity of NVIDIA’s CUDA, a recent spike in downloads reaffirms that AMD’s chips are emerging as viable alternatives, poised for growth. Additionally, AMD’s smaller market size compared to NVIDIA gives it ample room to capture growth in the rapidly expanding AI market. So, by securing a few new customers, as it has been doing, AMD’s growth rate can outpace NVIDIA’s by a wide margin. Unlike NVIDIA, AMD’s business is better insulated from a possible ...
