In less than a week, China conducted a series of executions on a scale rarely seen in recent decades. In all, 16 core members of mafia-like crime syndicates were put to death for a range of crimes, from murder to fraud and human trafficking. While all of the victims in the cases were Chinese nationals, many of the condemned were citizens of Myanmar, a largely Buddhist country not known for executing crime bosses. Advertisement Yet, China was able to convince authorities in Myanmar to hand over suspects. Observers said Southeast Asian countries might have little choice but to acquiesce, with China showing “merciless resolve” to protect the interests of its citizens abroad.

The 23-year-old was crowned Miss Nepal Hong Kong International on Thursday. Victory at the event guarantees entrance into the national competition later this year. Born and raised in Hong Kong, Kharel Dhakal has an impressive resume. She landed a job as an investment strategist with BlackRock after graduating from the University of Hong Kong in 2024. Advertisement That same year, she was appointed to the Zubin Foundation’s Diversity List, which identifies high-calibre individuals from the city’s ethnic minority groups who could serve on advisory and statutory bodies. “I want to carry the spirits of Hong Kong Nepalese, and not just their spirits. I want to showcase the Hong Kong Nepalese culture and … values,” she said following the coronation. Advertisement Speaking to the South China Morning Post afterwards, she said that growing up in Hong Kong as a “third culture kid” – someone who grows up in a culture different from their parents – she often had to look to Nepal to find role models who shared her background.

This can be a relatively lower-risk way to invest in the AI boom for the next five years. Arista Networks (ANET +6.80%) is a prominent artificial intelligence (AI) data center networking player, providing ultra‑fast Ethernet switches and other cloud-networking solutions that help large clusters of GPUs and custom accelerators communicate efficiently within AI data centers. Here's why the company can prove to be an underappreciated AI networking play. Growth catalysts Cloud giants such as Microsoft and Meta Platforms are investing tens of billions of dollars to expand their AI infrastructure. In fact, according to BNP Paribas, the total addressable data center networking market will be around $120 billion by 2028. Arista is well positioned to capitalize on this opportunity, as customers are increasingly adopting high‑speed, open-source Ethernet in back-end AI networks (to connect GPUs across servers in AI clusters) rather than Nvidia's proprietary InfiniBand. This helps clients prevent vendor lock-in over time.

AndreyPopov/iStock via Getty Images Introduction Perfect Corp. ( PERF ) stock is currently changing hands on the market for free, probably owing to its association with the SPAC boom and bust during the COVID-19 era. Despite market skepticism around SPACs being on the whole justified, the pendulum has perhaps swung too far this time. Since going public in 2022, PERF has experienced consistent revenue growth, gradually improving operating margins through scale, and has a slew of possibly formidable competitive advantages and intangible assets. This unusually low market valuation combined with continuously improving business fundamentals could provide the investor with the opportunity to pick up shares at such a price that assures downside protection while providing the potential for significant upside. About the Business Perfect Corp. ( PERF ) is a Taiwanese company that specializes in artificial intelligence ( AI ) and augmented reality ( AR ) solutions primarily for the beauty, skincare and fashion industries. The company was formed in 2015 after spinning off from CyberLink Corp. and later listed on the NYSE via a SPAC merger on October 31, 2022. The company generally splits itself into its B2C and B2B offerings. On the B2C front is PERF's family of applications and web services under the YouCam suite, intended for "photo and video beautification, enhancement, and editing, including but not limited to real-time AR makeup application, skin diagnosis, AI photo background removal, AI selfie, AI avatar, and AI text-to-image." The features and functionality in the YouCam suite are generally free, but users have the option to unlock premium features through paid subscriptions. PERF's ultimate value proposition to its customers in this segment is to "[lower] the barriers to content creation" as "self-expression and creativity became increasingly important". PERF's YouCam application suite (PERF 2024 10-k) For the B2B segment, PERF provides "hyper-realistic AI-driven virtu...

Trump Imposes Secondary Tariffs, Reaching 25%, On Countries Still Importing From Iran US and Iranian delegations conducted eight-hours of indirect negotiations mediated by the Omani government in Muscat on Friday, but it was merely minutes after the close of the talks that the US Department of State announced yet more sanctions on Iran . The punitive measures target 15 entities, two individuals and 14 vessels, charging them of being part of "the illicit trade in Iranian petroleum, petroleum products, and petrochemical products" - or the so-called shadow fleet. via The Export Practitioner The Friday US statement signaled support for antigovernment protests which dominated headlines for much of the last month, but which have died down since. "Time and time again, the Iranian government has prioritized its destabilizing behavior over the safety and security of its own citizens, as demonstrated by the regime's mass murder of peaceful protestors ," the State Dept. explained. But Tehran has pointed out not all of them were peaceful, given that dozens or even hundreds of police and security personnel were killed and wounded, in some cases by armed rioters who also torched buildings . The Iranian response to these new actions was for Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi to make clear Tehran's position that 'fair' dialogue as equals must be free of threats or pressure. In a post on X, he said Iran "enters diplomacy with open eyes and a steady memory of the past year" - which means that " great distrust" now defines US-Iran relations and it needs to be overcome if any agreement can be forged. But despite this plea, President Trump took more action in the form of slapping tariffs on any country still doing business with Iran : The executive order, which takes effect on Saturday, directs the administration to impose new tariffs on countries that still do business with Iran. It states that tariffs "may be imposed on goods imported into the United States that are products of any count...

Despite a monster past performance, there is a major risk investors can't ignore. Tesla (TSLA +3.47%) might be one of the most polarizing companies on the market. However, investors can't complain about the returns. Shares are up 3,300% in the past decade. It's clear that the business and its visionary founder and CEO, Elon Musk, have received ongoing support from the investment community. This has occurred while Tesla's core operations have been under immense pressure. If you're bullish on this electric vehicle (EV) stock, pay attention to this one warning sign. What does the valuation reflect? The major red flag that shouldn't be ignored is the current valuation. Shares trade at a price-to-earnings ratio of 375. That's an astronomically high figure that helps make Tesla one of the world's most valuable companies, as its market cap of $1.5 trillion is almost 5 times that of the next-most-valuable carmaker, Toyota. This is an inflated share price that adds significant downside risk should the company fail to deliver. Tesla is a story stock. The market has fully bought into the grand vision Musk has introduced. He has trained investors to strictly focus on what the future might bring. I'd argue that the valuation reflects an extremely high probability of success with robotaxis and robotics. There is still a lot of work to do, though. While the robotaxi service is only operating in Austin and the Bay Area today, Musk believes his company will run a self-driving ride-hailing service throughout the U.S. as early as this year. A mass market version of the robot, called Optimus Gen 3, is expected to be introduced this quarter. The plan is to ramp up production, bring costs down, and sell this machine to enterprise and household customers. Musk previously said that Optimus will lead Tesla to a $25 trillion market cap.

Deep tech startups in sectors such as space, semiconductors, and biotech take far longer to mature than conventional ventures. Because of that India is adjusting its startup rules, and mobilizing public capital, hoping to help more of them make it to commercial products. This week, the Indian government updated its startup framework, doubling the period for which deep tech companies are treated as startups to 20 years and raising the revenue threshold for startup-specific tax, grant, and regulatory benefits to ₹3 billion (about $33.12 million), from ₹1 billion (around $11.04 million) previously. The change aims to align policy timelines with the long development cycles typical of science- and engineering-led businesses. The change also forms part of New Delhi’s effort to build a long-horizon deep tech ecosystem by combining regulatory reform with public capital, including the ₹1 trillion (around $11 billion) Research, Development and Innovation Fund (RDI), announced last year. That fund is intended to expand patient financing for science-led and R&D-driven companies. Against that backdrop, U.S. and Indian venture firms later came together to launch the India Deep Tech Alliance, $1 billion-plus private investor coalition that includes Accel, Blume Ventures, Celesta Capital, Premji Invest, Ideaspring Capital, Qualcomm Ventures, and Kalaari Capital, with chipmaker Nvidia acting as an adviser. For founders, these changes may fix what some see as an artificial pressure point. Under the previous framework, companies often risked losing startup status while still pre-commercial, creating a “false failure signal” that judged science-led ventures on policy timelines rather than technological progress, said Vishesh Rajaram, founding partner at Speciale Invest, an Indian deep tech venture capital firm. “By formally recognizing deep tech as different, the policy reduces friction in fundraising, follow-on capital, and engagement with the state, which absolutely shows up in a fou...

hapabapa/iStock Editorial via Getty Images As we navigate through a very choppy market in 2026, I continue to emphasize that one of the key themes we should be preparing for is a rotation in market leadership, away from the industries that led gains last year (like the technology sector) and into the laggards that offer deeper value. The apparel sector, in my view, is particularly overdue for a rebound, especially as sales trends are coming in much better than feared for many brands. But here, stock selection is key, and I continue to be very suspicious about companies with sharp negative declines like Under Armour ( UAA ). The sportswear company just reported fiscal Q3 (December) results that produced a massive 20%+ spike in the stock, basically wiping out Under Armour's losses over the past year. The question for investors now is, can the enthusiasm be sustained? Data by YCharts I last wrote a sell article on Under Armour in January, when the stock was trading near $5 per share. While I agree that my sell call was ill-timed, and I certainly wasn't expecting a guidance boost in the company's Q3 results to spark such a meaningful rebound in the stock, I still continue to see a minefield of red flags in the company's recent performance. Valuation is also unattractive: despite poor performance, there are plenty of faster-growing retail names that are trading at better P/E multiples. I reiterate my sell rating here. As a reminder for investors who are newer to this stock, here is what I view as the company's biggest weak spots: Very poor sales performance in the U.S. Under Armour is suffering double-digit revenue declines in North America, which is a statement to the fading popularity of its brand. The company is perhaps best known for its very comfortable, mesh-material, and sweat-wicking apparel, but today, so many brands from NIKE ( NKE ) to lululemon ( LULU ) produce clothes of similar material. Fading footwear line. Today, shoes make up roughly 20% of Under Armour...
