Alones Creative/iStock via Getty Images With the outcome of the Israel-Iran conflict still in the balance, oil futures are still very much in a state of backwardation. While it makes for an interesting trade setup for derivatives, this is where one can truly appreciate the differences between Brent and WTI. With a greater portion of the world relying on Brent as the benchmark (but WTI Midland is now part of the Dated Brent basket ), it makes sense to compare two similarly structured ETFs that derive their gains from Brent and WTI, respectively. Data by YCharts The ETFs I shall discuss today are the United States Oil Fund LP ETF ( USO ) and the United States Brent Oil Fund LP ETF ( BNO ). One might assume that holding both is a way to take advantage of the widening Brent-WTI spread and benefit from the knock-on effects that the Brent shortage has on WTI, but the real play here is Brent because the stalemate at the Strait of Hormuz is pushing physical supplies of crude down. Estimates are now up to 11 million b/d of global oil supply lost, per the IEA as of this writing. In contrast, WTI prices are also rising, but since supply is not under threat, they are less sensitive to the war at this moment. What it is extremely sensitive to, however, is future demand. With global crude supply now down by 11 million barrels a day, the highly interconnected pricing mechanism has caused the majority of the world's crudes to appreciate. Data by YCharts To be precise, it is not that WTI is immune to the war in the Middle East, because oil arbitrage creates a sort of elasticity that will snap back or at least tighten the Brent-WTI spread over time, which is what one sees historically. Aside from arbitrage-led spread compression, if both crudes are affected, but in different ways, the tightening of the spread will tend to be sharper. Data by YCharts The extent of this elasticity is visibly perceptible and has kept the average spread at 1.64 for decades. WTI does lead the price charge...

Victor Golmer/iStock Editorial via Getty Images The conflict in the Middle East brought volatility to the markets. While short-term investors remain cautious, I think the broader markets are approaching oversold levels, which could create opportunities for long-term investors. Not all the dips are worth buying, but Novo Nordisk ( NVO ), in my opinion, creates an appealing risk-to-reward opportunity. It's been a while since my last article on the Danish pharma behemoth. While my anticipated rally has materialized, it couldn't sustain positive momentum, and the stock sold off. What were the reasons behind it? Quite frankly, a few important developments dragged the sentiment down. Macroeconomic uncertainty and weakening demand for obesity treatment and weight loss drugs. If that wasn't enough, European stocks consolidating after a double-digit surge in 2025 influenced NVO's poor performance as well. NVO: The recent rally couldn't sustain momentum (Seeking Alpha) Do I think the concerns have faded? No. However, we shouldn't forget that markets are forward-looking. Novo Nordisk is trading at multi-year low valuation and significantly oversold levels. From a technical point of view, I think it could be due for a bounce. Despite this, I think the long-term thesis remains intact. As it's said, Rome wasn't built in a day, and I don't think society will solve obesity anytime soon. My rating is Buy, and here are the reasons behind my thesis. Falling Knife That's Worth Catching? Novo is down 28% year-to-date. Ouch. Slightly zoom out, and that's a 53% decrease in the stock price over the past 12 months. The knife is falling, and it's sharp. Such a significant decline is hard to stomach, but I see it more as an unjustified sell-off than a fundamentally driven deterioration of the business. To be completely fair, the weight loss company is anticipated to decline in both top and bottom lines in 2026. Analysts expect a 7% drop in EPS and a 10% decline in revenue. That is concerning,...

But Apple's 50-year run of creating tech products that people fall in love with - sometimes a lot of people, sometimes just a hardy few - would never have happened if it weren't for a product and platform that's been gone for decades. Apple would never have made it if it weren't for the Apple II, the company's first hit product and the first one to generate the amount of devotion we've now come to expect from fans of Apple's products.

41-year-old seals first PGA Tour win since 2019 US Open Brain lesion derailed American’s career Gary Woodland won the Houston Open on Sunday, a moment that seemed improbable 30 months ago when he had brain surgery, and even two weeks ago when he opened up about his struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder. Woodland looked close to his best at Memorial Park, coasting home to a trophy that felt as important as his US Open title at Pebble Beach in 2019 . He closed with a three-under 67 to win by five shots over Nicolai Hojgaard. The gallery chanted Woodland’s name before falling silent so he could roll in the winning putt. Continue reading...
