Robinhood Markets ( HOOD ) is set to announce fourth-quarter earnings on Tuesday, and investors will watch out for updates on strategic initiatives such as prediction markets, tokenization, and international expansion. Wall Street expects the financial services platform to post an EPS of $0.68, implying a decline of 32.7% year-over-year, while revenue is expected to rise 32.7% to $1.34B for the quarter. During its Q3 earnings call, Robinhood Markets’ CEO Vladimir Tenev outlined a long-term vision, aiming for half of the company’s revenue to come from outside the U.S. in 10 years. Equity research analyst and Seeking Alpha author Kenio Fontes upgraded HOOD to Buy, saying that recent price declines create a compelling margin of safety. “Despite short-term crypto-driven revenue volatility, HOOD's diversification efforts - subscriptions, net interest, and innovative products - are showing strong growth,” highlighted Fontes, adding that, “Operational leverage is evident as top-line is up more than 100% year-over-year while expenses rose just 35%, supporting sustainable long-term profitability.” Wall Street analysts are also bullish , rating HOOD a Buy. However, Seeking Alpha’s Quant rating system and Seeking Alpha analysts are cautious and rate HOOD a Hold . During the Q3 earnings call, CFO Jason Warnick indicated that full-year 2025 adjusted operating expenses plus stock-based compensation are expected to be around $2.28B, subject to change based on business performance and investment in growth areas like Prediction Markets and Robinhood Ventures. However, Seeking Alpha analyst Amrita Roy rated HOOD a Hold, saying that Robinhood faces a more than 50% drawdown from its peak, driven by declining crypto, equities, and options volumes amid tightening liquidity. Roy warned that HOOD's Q4 FY25 earnings are expected to show sequential declines in transaction and net interest revenues, reflecting risk-off sentiment and macro uncertainty. Additionally, forward revenue growth is p...

Key Points SLVP has outperformed IAU by a wide margin over the past year but comes with higher volatility and a deeper sector concentration IAU offers much greater assets under management, extremely high liquidity, and a lower expense ratio SLVP pays a 1.5% yield while IAU does not pay a dividend, and their risk profiles differ sharply due to underlying exposures. 10 stocks we like better than iShares Gold Trust › The iShares MSCI Global Silver and Metals Miners ETF (NYSEMKT:SLVP) and the iShares Gold Trust (NYSEMKT:IAU) both target precious metals themes but differ sharply in recent returns, volatility, and portfolio concentration. SLVP focuses on global silver and metals mining companies, making it a play on equities closely tied to silver prices. IAU, in contrast, provides direct exposure to gold prices through physical holdings. This comparison looks at cost, performance, risk, and the makeup of both funds to help investors assess which may fit their goals. Snapshot (cost & size) Metric SLVP IAU Issuer IShares IShares Expense ratio 0.39% 0.25% 1-yr return (as of 2026-02-06) 189.5% 73.0% Dividend yield 1.5% n/a AUM $1.2 billion $79.6 billion The 1-yr return represents total return over the trailing 12 months. IAU is more affordable with a lower expense ratio, and it commands vastly greater assets under management. SLVP offers a yield of 1.5%, but IAU does not provide a dividend, so yield is a differentiator here. Performance & risk comparison Metric SLVP IAU Max drawdown (5 y) -55.41% N/A Growth of $1,000 over 5 years $2,518 $2,733 What's inside IAU is designed to track the price of gold directly, offering investors a simple way to access gold exposure without holding the physical commodity. With $79.6 billion in assets under management and a fund age of 21 years, it is one of the largest and most liquid gold ETFs available. IAU does not hold equities or other assets—its value is determined by gold prices, and it does not pay dividends. SLVP, on the other hand, i...

Earnings Call Insights: Becton, Dickinson and Company (BDX) Q1 2026 Management View CEO Thomas Polen welcomed Shawn Bevec as Senior Vice President of Investor Relations and emphasized a strong start to the year, stating, "We delivered stronger-than-expected results, which reflect our disciplined execution, including accelerated commercial initiatives and strengthen our key growth platforms." Polen noted revenues of $5.3 billion, 0.4% growth, and 2.5% growth in New BD, with double-digit gains in biologic drug delivery, PureWick, advanced tissue regeneration, pharmacy automation, and high single-digit growth in APM. He highlighted, "We delivered adjusted gross margin of 53.4% and adjusted EPS of $2.91, both of which were also ahead of our expectations." Polen announced, "Later this morning, we expect to close the combination of our Life Sciences business with Waters via Reverse Morris Trust transaction." He detailed a $4 billion cash distribution from the transaction, with $2 billion for share repurchases and $2 billion for debt paydown, aligning with an enhanced capital allocation strategy. Polen outlined strategic priorities under the "Excellence Unleashed" agenda: compete, innovate, and deliver, with early momentum in commercial initiatives, including sales force expansions and competitive wins. He stated, "Alaris delivered our strongest quarter of competitive wins since the relaunch, increasing our category share by approximately 100 basis points." Interim CFO Vitor Roque reported, "Total company revenue of $5.3 billion grew 0.4%, with 2.5% growth in New BD." Roque highlighted, "Adjusted gross margin of 53.4% was down 140 basis points versus the prior year, driven by approximately 170 basis points of tariffs, partially offset by productivity initiatives through BD Excellence." He added, "Adjusted EPS of $2.91 was down 15.2%, driven primarily by the impact of tariffs. However, earnings exceeded our expectations on the strength of both revenue performance and operat...

Earnings Call Insights: Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (CLF) Q4 2025 Management View CEO Lourenco Goncalves highlighted a shift in federal policy supporting American manufacturing, but noted that "we were still exposed to a lot of steel imports, poisoning our domestic market, creating a demand gap that negatively impacted our steel shipments and asset utilization." Goncalves explained that asset shutdowns and the termination of the index-based slab supply contract with ArcelorMittal were steps taken to address these headwinds. Goncalves announced, "we have already secured more business from our automotive clients, and that will show throughout 2026 as the OEMs reassure production back to the United States." He emphasized the impact of Section 232 tariffs and recent Canadian steel import restrictions, stating that "our robust order book is the best confirmation that the business environment has already started to improve." The CEO underscored that Cleveland-Cliffs "does not need to build new plants," emphasizing available capacity and that "the incremental volume demanded by the automotive industry can and will be absorbed by our existing footprint." Goncalves discussed a strategic partnership: "In the fourth quarter, we revealed that our memorandum of understanding partner was POSCO, Korea's largest steelmaker... Our collaboration represents a model of how allies can deepen industrial cooperation under fair and transparent trade principles." He added, "We are targeting signing a definitive agreement in the first half of 2026. This remains the #1 strategic priority for both Cleveland-Cliffs and POSCO." CFO Celso Goncalves reported, "Total shipments in Q4 were 3.8 million tons, which was slightly lower than Q3 due to heavier-than-usual seasonal impacts." He provided guidance: "My expectation for full year 2026 shipment level is in the 16.5 million- to 17 million-ton range, an improvement from 2025 as we run our mills at higher utilizations." The CFO stated, "Q4 price realizati...

Citi downgraded RenaissanceRe Holdings ( RNR ) to Neutral from Buy as the stock appears to more reasonably discount the company's outlook to prioritize return on equity stability at the expense of top-line growth. RenaissanceRe stock dipped 1.5% in Monday midday trading. Its valuation multiple has moved to >8x next 12-month EPS from ~6x in the past six months, bringing it more in line with its historic norms, Citi said. "Increasing competition in core property lines will likely require continued underwriting discipline, limiting upside to growth and, therefore, EPS prospects over the intermediate term," analyst Matthew Heimermann wrote in a note to clients. Share repurchases, though, should provide support for the stock, he added. Citi updated EPS estimates to reflect increased stock buyback activity, partly offset by higher expense ratios. The Q1 2026 EPS estimate increased to $7.69 from $7.29 previously, and the FY2026 EPS estimate rose to $35.44 from $33.42. The Neutral rating aligns with the SA Quant rating and average Sell-Side rating , both at Hold. More on RenaissanceRe RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd.

Key Points Intuitive Surgical's growth rate was around 19% last quarter. The company has been growing steadily over the years, and it still has plenty of potential in the long term. The stock's valuation, however, remains high. 10 stocks we like better than Intuitive Surgical › Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ: ISRG) is a promising healthcare company that could help revolutionize the sector. Its da Vinci surgical systems can help make surgery more precise and lead to better outcomes for patients. The company has been experiencing strong growth in recent years and still has much more potential in the long term. Investors, however, haven't been terribly bullish on it of late, as the stock has declined more than 10% this year, falling to less than $500. Could the healthcare stock prove to be a steal of a deal at its current price? 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 » The company's growth rate has been strong For years, Intuitive Surgical has been growing its top line by double digits at a fairly consistent pace. And over the past 12 months, it has experienced an acceleration. During the fourth quarter of 2025, which covered the last three months of the year, its revenue rose by 19%, totaling just under $2.9 billion. That's a higher rate than what it was averaging just a few years ago, as you can see from the chart below. The robotic-assisted surgery market is still in its early growth stages, and there could be significantly more growth ahead for Intuitive Surgical, which is why it can make for a compelling long-term investment to hang on to. Is Intuitive Surgical stock a bargain buy? At less than $500, Intuitive's stock is trading at a price-to-earnings multiple of more than 60. And on a forward basis, based on analyst projections, it's trading at around 50 times its estimated future profits. These are hefty multiples, which effectively price ...

An Irish man has spent five months in US Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention and faces deportation despite having a valid work permit and no criminal record. Seamus Culleton was a “model immigrant” who had become the victim of a capricious and inept system, said his lawyer, Ogor Winnie Okoye. Originally from County Kilkenny, Culleton has lived in the US for more than 20 years, is married to a US citizen and runs a plastering business in the Boston area. On his way home from work on 9 September 2025 he was arrested in a random immigration sweep, according to Okoye, of BOS Legal Group in Massachusetts. After being held in ICE facilities near Boston and in Buffalo, New York, he was flown to a facility in El Paso, Texas, where he is sharing a cell with more than 70 men. Culleton said the detention centre was cold, damp and squalid and there were fights over insufficient food – “like a concentration camp, absolute hell”, he told the Irish Times, which first reported the story on Monday. Culleton said that when he was arrested he was carrying a Massachusetts driving licence and a valid work permit issued as part of an application for a green card that he initiated in April 2025. He has a final interview remaining. When asked at the Buffalo facility to sign a form agreeing to deportation, Culleton said he refused and instead ticked a box expressing a wish to contest his arrest, which he intended to do on the grounds that he was married to a US citizen, Tiffany Smyth, and had a valid work permit. At a November hearing a judge approved his release on a $4,000 bond, which Smyth paid, but authorities continued to detain Culleton, initially without explanation. When his attorney appealed to a federal court, two ICE agents said that in Buffalo Culleton had signed documents agreeing to be deported. Culleton said he did not agree and that the signatures were not his. “My whole life is here. I worked so hard to build my business. My wife is here.” The judge noted irregula...

In this article NVO Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT A box of Wegovy pills arranged at a pharmacy in Provo, Utah, US, on Thursday, Jan. 15, 2026. George Frey | Bloomberg | Getty Images The Food and Drug Administration said Novo Nordisk 's TV advertisement for its newly launched Wegovy pill for obesity included "false or misleading" claims about the medicine's abilities and benefits to patients. In a letter to Novo dated Feb. 5, the FDA said the ad misbrands the oral drug, making its distribution a violation of federal law. The agency requested that the drugmaker take immediate action to address the violations, which could include ceasing all ads containing misleading claims. In a statement on Monday, Novo Nordisk confirmed that it received the letter and clarified that the ad has been running since the pill's launch, but is not the company's Super Bowl spot. "We take all regulatory feedback seriously and are in the process of responding to the FDA to address their concerns regarding the advertisement's presentation," Liz Skrbkova, Novo's head of U.S. media and stakeholder relations, said in the statement. It adds to the mounting hurdles the Danish drugmaker is facing as it scrambles to win back market share from chief rival Eli Lilly and cheaper compounded copycats in the booming GLP-1 market. The company's Wegovy pill is key to those efforts. It was the first-ever GLP-1 pill for obesity to enter the market in January, and Novo last week said more than 170,000 American patients are already taking the drug. Bloomberg first reported on the FDA letter on Monday. In the letter, the FDA said Novo's ad misleadingly suggests its pill offers superior benefits to other approved GLP-1 weight loss drugs. The agency said phrases used the spot, including "live lighter" and "a way forward," imply greater weight loss than other treatments and added benefits beyond that, despite no evidence to support those claims. The ad's statements "misleadingly imply benefits bey...

Bangladesh have requested that Pakistan end their planned boycott of their T20 World Cup match against India, opening the door for the fixture to be played on 15 February as scheduled. The match, the biggest and most lucrative in cricket, has been in doubt since the Pakistan government advised its team not to take the field against their long-time rivals. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that initial decision was made to "support" Bangladesh, who had a request for their matches to be moved out of India rejected and subsequently pulled out of the tournament. But, after talks between officials at the Pakistan Cricket Board, the International Cricket Council and the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) in Lahore on Sunday, BCB president Ameenul Islam requested the match go ahead "for the benefit of the entire cricket ecosystem". "We are deeply moved by Pakistan's efforts to go above and beyond in supporting Bangladesh during this period. Long may our brotherhood flourish," he added. The match is scheduled to take place in the city of Colombo in Sri Lanka, who are the co-hosts for the tournament with India. Pakistan will forfeit the points from the group-stage match should it not be played but the team's absence from the tournament would also have longer-term consequences for cricket. It could lead to disputes over the ICC's current rights deals and continued uncertainty would likely impact future agreements, with the current TV deals set to run out after the 2027 World Cup. Many of the smaller cricketing nations rely on the money distributed by the ICC, so any cut in revenue would likely hit such countries hardest. "Following my short visit to Pakistan yesterday and given the forthcoming outcomes of our discussions, I request Pakistan to play the ICC T20 World Cup game on 15 February against India for the benefit of the entire cricket ecosystem," Islam said. The ICC and PCB have been contacted for comment.

The cloud-based AI infrastructure company is still growing like a weed. CoreWeave (CRWV +6.54%), a provider of cloud-based AI infrastructure services, went public last March at $40 per share. Today, it trades at nearly $100. Let's see why this stock skyrocketed, and where it might head over the next 12 months. Why did CoreWeave impress the bulls? CoreWeave was originally an Ethereum (ETH +0.58%) mining company, but it abandoned that business model after the 2018 cryptocurrency crash. It subsequently repurposed those GPUs to run AI tasks remotely. In 2022, it spent $100 million on Nvidia's (NVDA +3.50%) H100 data center GPUs to support that expansion. It also leveraged those GPUs as collateral to secure additional financing to purchase even more GPUs and open new data centers. CoreWeave operated only three data centers at the end of 2022, but now operates 33 centers across the U.S. and Europe. It claims its dedicated GPUs enable it to process AI tasks roughly 35 times faster and 80% cheaper than larger and more diversified cloud platforms like Amazon (AMZN 0.35%) Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft (MSFT +2.83%) Azure. As the AI market expanded, CoreWeave's revenue skyrocketed from $16 million in 2022 to $1.9 billion in 2024, and analysts expect that figure to surge to $5.1 billion in 2025. Expand NASDAQ : CRWV CoreWeave Today's Change ( 6.54 %) $ 5.88 Current Price $ 95.83 Key Data Points Market Cap $45B Day's Range $ 88.70 - $ 97.74 52wk Range $ 33.52 - $ 187.00 Volume 15M Avg Vol 31M Gross Margin 49.23 % From 2025 to 2027, they expect its revenue to nearly quadruple to $19.5 billion, with profitability by the final year.

Readers respond to an editorial about how smaller classes lead to better educational outcomes Re your editorial ( The Guardian view on inclusive schools: ministers should recognise that class size matters, 3 February ), after 25 years of teaching large primary classes, 2020-21 brought a revelation. During the spring 2021 lockdown, my class was reduced to about 18 children, who were either the children of key workers or had special educational needs and disabilities (Send). For the first time ever, I could sit with an individual child for five whole minutes to resolve a maths difficulty, or have an in-depth reading discussion. As a class we did science investigations we could normally only dream of, due to having enough space and resources. Send children grew the confidence to give opinions or ask for help. Every child lucky enough to be in school truly fulfilled their potential in a way that could never normally happen. It was a vision of what education could be. However, March quickly arrived and the children were back to having no elbow room to write properly, and sharing vital resources between six. Continue reading...
