On this episode of Stock Movers with Alexis Christoforous: - Shares of The Campbell's Company (CPB) edged higher ahead of the US market open after the canned soup maker reported adjusted earnings per share for the third quarter that beat the average analyst estimate. - Eli Lilly (LLY) shares gained in the early session following obesity drug presentations at the American Diabetes Association conference. Citi analysts say their conviction on Lilly is firmly intact, given the company’s incretin portfolio is “not built around singular blockbusters.” - Shares of Marvell Technology (MRVL) and Flex (FLEX) are rising in premarket trading as the companies are set to replace Pool Corp. and Campbell’s in S&P 500 before the market open on June 22, S&P Dow Jones Indices says in emailed statement.

Sunday Sport’s ‘Countdown to 16’ used revealing photoshoots with young girls to trail topless pictures published after their 16th birthdays In 1987, the tabloid press in Britain was at the peak of its powers. The Sun newspaper, with its brash celebrity scoops and strident support for Margaret Thatcher – who won her third general election that year – was selling almost 4m copies a day. Competition for stories and readers was relentless, resulting in ever more salacious and lurid editorial devices to win a slice of the readership from rivals on the newsstand. The Sun stood atop the tabloid market, its topless Page 3- girls credited with a share of its popularity. It was against this backdrop that the Sunday Sport, a red-top publication occupying the seediest corner of Fleet Street, launched a feature that even by its own standards appeared to plumb the depths of journalistic ethics.

Thirteen. At the earliest. That’s when parents should consider getting their child a smartphone, according to a new study published in JAMA Pediatrics. Parents are often told to wait until their children hit the teen years to give them their first phone, as research continues to roll in showing health worries tied to young people’s social media habits. The new findings back up conventional wisdom, showing a delay of even one year can lead to measurably better mental and physical health. “Age 13 seems safer,” said Ran Barzilay , an adolescent psychiatrist at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and the senior author of the paper. “Even then, make sure that you put some boundary on the amount of time that the kid is on the screen.” Getting a phone at 13 wasn’t associated with depression or obesity, according to the analysis of health and data usage for nearly 2,000 kids. It was linked to poor sleep, however. Previous research from the same team showed that 12-year-olds with phones had a higher risk of depression, obesity and insufficient sleep. Boundaries should include the amount of time kids spend on their phone, and when they use it, Barzilay said. Teens who spent more than five hours a day on their phone had more than double the risk of depression, obesity and insufficient sleep within a year of getting it, he said. Even the risk of not sleeping enough can be curtailed by having the kids keep their phones outside of the bedroom, he said. “This is a very straightforward intervention or behavioral modification that can make a big difference,” Barzilay said. Read More: The Hottest Phone for Kids Right Now Is a $100 Landline Many parents have taken the “Wait Until 8th” pledge , promising to keep their kids off smartphones until the end of eighth grade. Others have opted for “dumb phone” alternatives like the Tin Can. Policymakers have also begun to take notice.

(This is The Best Stocks in the Market , brought to you by Josh Brown and Sean Russo of Ritholtz Wealth Management.) Josh — I'm old enough to remember when people were bullish on Prologis (PLD) because of its reputation as "the landlord of e-commerce" circa 2021. I was trading the stock back then for this exact reason. When Amazon and every other retailer needed warehouse space close to consumers, Prologis had the locations, the scale, and the relationships. That story hasn't gone away, but there's a new one running alongside it. The company is now pushing aggressively into data centers, using both conversions of existing warehouses and greenfield developments, with publicly stated ambitions to scale data center capacity to as much as 10 gigawatts over the next decade. Corporate customers tied to U.S. data center construction are making up an increasing share of Prologis's forward-looking pipeline, as suppliers move their distribution centers closer to data center developments. The world's largest industrial REIT is quietly becoming a digital infrastructure company, and most investors still have it filed under "e-commerce warehouses." The benefit of doing our Best Stocks in the Market research is that it forces me to ask why a stock in the "wrong" sector might be among the market's leaders when most people just hear the name and ticker and revert back to their previously held biases. "Oh, Prologis, that's that ecommerce REIT I used to hear about during Covid." Guess again, fat boy. New era, new fundamental driver. Sean's going to explain to you why Prologis and another REIT everyone thinks they understand, Simon Property Group (SPG) , are acting well this year despite everyone's concerns over higher interest rates - a well understood negative catalyst for most of the sector. We're also going to lace you with the usual Monday morning high-level stats from the rest of the list. On a personal note, I want to thank you for understanding our absence last week. I promised...

The United States faces a huge supply chain vulnerability regarding rare-earth elements. That's because China controls up to 90% of the processing of these rare-earth elements, according to research by The Motley Fool . The federal government has taken an active role in bolstering rare-earth mining and processing and has invested in two companies, MP Materials (NYSE: MP) and USA Rare Earth (NASDAQ: USAR) , to bolster its capabilities. The two companies are expanding their capabilities for mining and processing rare-earth elements and manufacturing refined magnets, which are critical for defense, aerospace, and technological applications. If you're considering investing in the budding U.S. rare-earth industry, one of these companies stands out as a better investment right now. Image source: Getty Images. Continue reading
Saylor's Strategy Buys The Dip As Bitcoin Nears Mining Cost Floor A week after SELLING 32 Bitcoin - and (in part) triggering a waterfall decline in crypto - Bitcoin treasury company Strategy just BOUGHT an additional 1,550 BTC for approximately $101.3 million at an average price of $65,332 per bitcoin between June 1 and June 7, according to an 8-K filing with the SEC on Monday.

Saylor's Strategy Buys The Dip As Bitcoin Nears Mining Cost Floor A week after SELLING 32 Bitcoin - and (in part) triggering a waterfall decline in crypto - Bitcoin treasury company Strategy just BOUGHT an additional 1,550 BTC for approximately $101.3 million at an average price of $65,332 per bitcoin between June 1 and June 7, according to an 8-K filing with the SEC on Monday. Strategy now holds a total of 845,256 BTC - worth around $53.5 billion - bought at an average price of $75,680 per bitcoin for a total cost of around $64 billion, including fees and expenses, according to the company's co-founder and executive chairman, Michael Saylor . This means Saylor's horde represents 4% of bitcoin's 21 million supply cap. Was Saylor's 'sale' last week designed to lower the price for this big purchase? Bitcoin had been trading for around $73,700 before the sale announcement. However, the news, despite increasingly being flagged by the company as a possibility in recent weeks, saw the market subsequently drop around 20% to a low of roughly $59,300 on Friday, before recovering back above the $63,000 level over the weekend. Last week, JPMorgan analysts said Strategy's recent decision to sell 32 BTC "spooked" markets even if the sale was "symbolic and voluntary," intended to demonstrate the company's commitment and flexibility to preferred stockholders. As TheBlock.co reports , Saylor posted another Strategy bitcoin acquisition tracker chart on Sunday with the caption "A good time to add more dots," a commonly-understood signal that the largest corporate bitcoin holder may disclose fresh bitcoin purchases this week. The framing this time went further than the usual nod toward another buy, in that it explicitly positioned current price levels as attractive , with bitcoin trading in the low $60,000 range. Following bitcoin's worst week in two years , Strategy(MSTR) Executive Chairman Michael Saylor published a framework on X , arguing that the Bitcoin community is evolving int...

NoDerog With its portfolio at an “inflection” point and sales in its Helly Hansen brand seen “breaking out” with double-digit growth, Kontoor Brands ( KTB ) was initiated with an Overweight rating and $90 price target at J.P. Morgan. The price target assumes 30% upside to Friday’s closing price. “We see the portfolio at an inflection point to accelerate growth into FY27 with a narrowed focus on function-based brands consisting of Wrangler and Helly Hansen,” said analyst Matthew Boss, incorporating these projections with the recent divestment of its Lee brand. Boss models top-line growth at 4% through FY28, which he “prudently” based on 3%+ growth at Wrangler and high-single-digits at Helly Hansen, while on the bottom-line, adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to expand ~20% by FY28. Kontoor Brands ( KTB ) is in the “early innings” of its growth opportunities, Boss says, with Wrangler underpenetrated internationally and Helly Hansen’s unaided brand awareness at just 3% in the U.S. At the same time, Boss cites the 3.6% CAGR of the global denim market, supported by the “casualization” of fashion trends and consumers wearing denim on average an additional day per week. In terms of market share, the two top names within the U.S. denim market are Levi Strauss ( LEVI ) with a 10.7% market share and Wrangler with a 6.3% share, with the latter increasing its market share by 25 basis points every year on average since 2019. “Taking this a step further, Wrangler stands within the Value U.S. Denim segment with a $16B total addressable market, holding a 7.3% market share and second to Levi’s ( LEVI ) 12.5% Value denim share. Wall Street analysts and Seeking Alpha authors both view Kontoor Brands ( KTB ) as a Buy. Seeking Alpha’s Quant rating, however, rates the stock as a Sell and a Quant score of just 1.91.

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, R-La., speaks during the news conference following the House Republican Conference caucus meeting at the Republican National Committee headquarters in Washington on Wednesday, May 13, 2026. Bill Clark | CQ-Roll Call, Inc. | Getty Images The U.S. House is poised to vote to on a $70 billion package to fund immigration enforcement agencies and, after months of partisan fighting, send the measure to President Donald Trump 's desk. The package would fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, two Department of Homeland Security subagencies left out of an earlier spending bill amid Democratic opposition, and bring to an end a drawn-out debate over immigration enforcement policy that began in January and led to a government shutdown. A final House vote to pass the immigration funding package could come as soon as Tuesday. The Senate passed the package early Friday morning on a 52-47 vote. It would fund the immigration enforcement agencies through the end of Trump's presidency. Sen. Lisa Murkowski , R-Alaska, was the lone Republican to vote against it. "We were forced to use the reconciliation process because Democrats objected – during the appropriations process – to giving any money to Border Patrol and ICE, effectively shutting our border security down at a time of growing threats to the nation," Sen. Lindsey Graham , R-S.C., chair of the Senate budget panel, said in a statement on Friday after the measure passed. Graham was referring to the budget reconciliation process, which allows for the passage of legislation in the Senate on a party-line vote. "In less than two years, President Trump has taken the border from the most broken to the most secure in history. The bill we passed today locks those gains in through the rest of his term," Graham continued. Read more CNBC politics coverage Michael Dell courted Trump early.
