TotalEnergies screens as a “buy hand over fist” dividend play because it couples a roughly 5% yield and sub‑12× forward P/E with resilient oil and gas cash flows and long-dated PPAs like the 1‑GW Google Texas solar deal.

当你想认识一个新朋友,或者尝试开始一段新恋情,你会选择怎么做?是拜托朋友介绍,还是在网上认识?美国斯坦福大学的学生,已经开始用AI解决这个世纪难题。 一位Henry Weng的美籍华人在斯坦福大学校内上线了一款名为「Date Drop」的AI约会应用,在校生只需花十分钟时间填写个人信息,即可匹配到最合适的约会对象。 Date Drop在2025年9月正式开放后,吸引到超5000名学生注册,并完成了...
当你想认识一个新朋友,或者尝试开始一段新恋情,你会选择怎么做?是拜托朋友介绍,还是在网上认识?美国斯坦福大学的学生,已经开始用AI解决这个世纪难题。 一位Henry Weng的美籍华人在斯坦福大学校内上线了一款名为「Date Drop」的AI约会应用,在校生只需花十分钟时间填写个人信息,即可匹配到最合适的约会对象。 Date Drop在2025年9月正式开放后,吸引到超5000名学生注册,并完成了35000次匹配。 (图源:Date Drop) Date Drop的爆火也引起华尔街注意,The New York Times透露,这款应用已完成210万美元的风险融资,或在不久后从高校走出,面向大众市场开放。Date Drop走红的同时也招来一些争议,部分高校生表示,假如我们连开启一段恋爱关系都要靠AI算法完成,这是会让人彻底失去社交能力? 但不可否认的是,AI正在社交平台中扮演愈发重要的角色,从Tinder,到探探、陌陌,中外社交平台都在积极拥抱AI算法,帮助用户匹配到更适合的对象。 AI版陌陌,凭啥引爆美国高校? 在号称「硅谷人才摇篮」之一的斯坦福大学,一个基于AI大模型技术打造的约会软件能够引起广泛讨论,并且超5000名学生注册使用,这本身就是一个非常传奇的故事。或许你对这个注册用户数量没什么概念,5000名学生大约占到了斯坦福本科生约75%,用人手一个账号来描述也毫不过分。 Date Drop的开发者是一位华裔在校研究生Henry Weng,自去年秋季学期上线,参与者用学校邮箱注册,先完成一份包含66个问题的问卷,内容覆盖价值观、生活方式、政治观点等更深层的偏好,然后由算法进行匹配。 Date Drop每周二会「Drop」出你的最佳约会对象,这种形式也和我们常见的约会App完全不一样,它有点像开盲盒、或者抽奖,结果可能是你想要的,也可能是毫无兴趣的。 这样的形式使其在校园内产生了病毒式传播,据资料显示,在每周二晚九点的这个「开奖时间」里,宿舍里的人会凑在一起等放榜,大家把结果当成社交谈资,甚至宿管助理表示这已经成为斯坦福新生最爱的平台。 (图源:Date Drop) 实际上,如果只是「问卷+匹配」的模式,Date Drop不至于会让人如此上头,更核心的其实是它解决了大学社交里最难的那一步——如何开口认识。 传统约会App的痛点,要自己选人、自己破冰、自己承担尴尬...

Dutch Bros. (NYSE: BROS) has been in the limelight over the past year, and not in a good way. Growth, while still positive, decelerated in each of the past four quarters, owing to the broader downturn in the restaurant industry. This weighed on the drive-through coffee chain , pushing its stock down 21% over the past year. That said, expectations were high going into the company's most recent financial report, and investors got an extra shot of growth. For the fourth quarter, Dutch Bros generated revenue that jumped 29% year over year to $443.6 million, accelerating from 25% growth in Q3, its fastest growth rate in nearly a year. This drove impressive profit growth, with adjusted earnings per share (EPS) surging 143% to $0.17. image source: Getty Images. Continue reading

Nearly 70% more properties participated in the Black Friday sale. B2B growth was described as "fantastic," with double-digit regional growth, new partnerships, and more active agents than any prior Q4.

Earnings Call Insights: Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc. (BFAM) Q4 2025 Management View CEO Stephen Kramer reported "a strong finish to 2025, closing out a year of solid growth and continued progress across the business." Kramer highlighted that "revenue increased 9% to $734 million and adjusted EPS increased 17% to $1.15 both ahead of our expectations." For the full year, revenue was $2.93 billion and adjusted EPS of $4.55, which Kramer said "exceeded the expectations shared at the beginning of the year." Kramer detailed segment performance, stating "back-up care again delivered strong growth and earnings contribution in Q4" with revenue up 17% to $183 million. He noted that existing clients saw double-digit growth in backup users with "population remain[ing] relatively flat, meaning growth was driven by deeper penetration into the eligible population." Turning to full service, Kramer said "revenue increased 6% in the fourth quarter to $515 million, with growth driven by a combination of tuition increases and enrollment growth tempered by our continued portfolio rationalization." Kramer reported "six new centers this quarter" and progress in the U.K. business, which "delivered positive operating profit for the year, a significant milestone post pandemic." On ed advisory, Kramer stated "revenue increased 10% to $36 million in the quarter." He also announced several new employer clients. Kramer provided 2026 guidance: "we expect revenue to be in the range of $3.075 billion to $3.125 billion and adjusted EPS to be in the range of $4.90 to $5.10 per share." CFO Elizabeth Boland said, "Revenue in the fourth quarter was $734 million, representing 9% growth year-over-year and modestly ahead of our expectations." Boland added, "Adjusted operating income rose 14% to $91 million, with operating margins up roughly 60 basis points over the prior year to 12.3%. Adjusted EBITDA increased 12% to $123 million representing an adjusted EBITDA margin of 17%." Outlook Boland outl...

Kioxia Holdings Corp. ’s shares surged 15% after soaring AI demand helped the Japanese chipmaker deliver a better-than-anticipated results outlook, cementing its position as the world’s best performing major stock of 2026. Kioxia’s stock rose by the most in a month during early morning Friday trade in Tokyo. Its roughly 120% rise this year outpaces every other member of the MSCI World Index , and comes on the heels of a 10-fold surge that made it 2025’s top performer as well. The Japanese firm’s meteoric ascent encapsulates the booming demand for memory as hyperscalers rush to build AI infrastructure. Chips like Kioxia’s are essential for AI training and data centers. Major tech firms have warned of a memory supply crunch amid soaring demand, a deficit that’s likely to inflate prices for NAND and solid-state drives in 2026. Kioxia is also benefiting from the rising importance of NAND flash storage as AI applications demand ever more data. Its results helped drive gains in shares of fellow storage companies including Kioxia’s partner Sandisk Corp. as well as Western Digital Corp. and Micron Technology Inc. Kioxia “beat the market’s already very elevated expectations,” Ortus Advisors’ Andrew Jackson said. Read More: AI Memory Demand Makes Kioxia 2025’s Best-Performing Stock Spun out of the Toshiba Corp. unit that invented NAND flash memory, Kioxia now expects operating income of ¥709.57 billion ($4.6 billion) to ¥799.57 billion in the business year ending March, besting estimates for ¥525.47 billion. Revenue should top ¥2 trillion for the first time, the company said. It’s an extraordinary comeback from a lackluster reception to the company’s initial public offering in 2024. Fears that Kioxia’s largest single shareholder Bain Capital might sell down its stake have weighed on the stock price. Kioxia is now partnering with AI linchpin Nvidia Corp. to develop next-generation NAND technology designed to work alongside high-bandwidth memory chips that would help AI systems...
