Headwinds are mounting for a historically expensive stock market during Trump's second, non-consecutive term. From an investment standpoint, President Donald Trump's first term in the White House was a resounding success. When he left office on Jan. 20, 2021, Trump had overseen cumulative returns in the ageless Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI +2.47%), benchmark S&P 500 (^GSPC +1.97%), and innovation-inspired Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC +2.18%) of 57%, 70%, and 142%, respectively. His second, non-consecutive term has offered something of an encore performance. From Inauguration Day (Jan. 20, 2025) through the closing bell on Feb. 2, 2026, the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq have respectively risen by 14%, 16%, and 20%. All three indexes have hit several record-closing highs since Trump's latest term began. While investors have lauded a lower peak marginal corporate income tax rate and the Federal Reserve's ongoing rate-easing cycle, the stock market isn't without its fair share of risks. Statistically, headwinds are mounting on Wall Street and threatening to upend what's been a robust rally during Trump's tenure. But is a stock market crash really in the cards under President Trump? Let's allow several century-old data sets to weigh in. Historical precedent is a potential problem for Wall Street Before proceeding any further, keep in mind that no data set or correlated event can guarantee a short-term directional move in one or more of the stock market's major indexes. Despite this lack of a guarantee, it's not uncommon for history to rhyme on Wall Street. Arguably, no time-tested data set lays the groundwork for potential stock market downside quite like the Shiller Price-to-Earnings (P/E) Ratio, which is also known as the cyclically adjusted P/E ratio, or CAPE Ratio. This valuation tool, which is based on average inflation-adjusted earnings over the previous 10 years, has been back-tested to January 1871. Over the last 155 years, the S&P 500's Shiller P/E has averaged abou...

Key Points The Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite catapulted 57%, 70%, and 142%, respectively, during Trump's first term -- and they've delivered an encore performance since his January 2025 inauguration. Historical precedent poses a potentially serious problem for Wall Street and investors. However, history swings both ways and has traditionally favored optimists. 10 stocks we like better than S&P 500 Index › From an investment standpoint, President Donald Trump's first term in the White House was a resounding success.

Here's why giving up on Ethereum and Solana now would be a mistake. For the year, every major cryptocurrency is getting hit hard. But some cryptocurrencies are getting hit harder than others. Ethereum (ETH +6.80%), for example, is down 35%, while Solana (SOL +6.26%) is down 34%. So is it worth buying the dip on these beaten-down cryptocurrencies? Or has something fundamentally changed in the way investors view these cryptocurrencies? When to buy the dip Generally speaking, a strategy of buying the dip only works if a cryptocurrency is in the midst of a long-term uptrend. There will be pullbacks of 10% or more along the way, and this is when it can make sense to buy at a lower price. Think of each dip as an opportunity to buy your favorite cryptocurrency at a temporary 10% discount before it goes back to its regular price. This strategy has worked splendidly with cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum and Solana in the past, so it's no surprise that some crypto investors are now salivating at the chance to buy these cryptocurrencies at a whopping 35% discount. Has something changed in the investment thesis? But here's the thing: Investors are starting to change the way they view Layer-1 blockchain networks such as Ethereum and Solana. Previously, they were viewed as building blocks of the crypto economy. Everything being built with blockchain technology -- including decentralized apps and decentralized exchanges -- was being built on top of these networks. That's what made them so valuable, especially in the minds of Silicon Valley investors used to talking about network effects. Increasingly, however, investors are starting to view these cryptocurrencies as nothing more than open-source software. And indeed, if you think about what Ethereum and Solana really are, they can be viewed as decentralized, public, and highly transparent codebases. Anyone can build on top of them, and they are not owned by any central entity. Expand CRYPTO : ETH Ethereum Today's Change ( 6.80 %)...

Merged overnight to the LLVM/Clang compiler's codebase was initial targeting for next-generation AMD Zen 6 processors using the znver6 target.Back in December was the initial GNU Compiler Collection enablement with -march=znver6 support merged for GCC 16 . That GCC 16.1 stable release will be out in March~April with that initial AMD Zen 6 compiler support. Now overnight the similar enablement has landed within the LLVM/Clang Git codebase. The main Git code for LLVM is currently tracking for what will become LLVM/Clang 23 with a stable release in September. It's also possible this Znver6 enablement will be back-ported to the upcoming LLVM/Clang 22 stable series. The back-porting of new CPU targets has happened before for LLVM and with LLVM/Clang 22 stable not coming out until later in February, it's very well possible it will happen here with Znver6.While -march=znver6 is now working in LLVM/Clang, the current LLVM code doesn't yet support Zen 6's new AVX-512 BMM bit manipulation instructions. That will come in a later patch. AVX-512 BMM allows for bit matrix multiply and bit reversal operations. This commit is what landed that AMD Zen 6 support overnight in LLVM.Compared to the past where AMD didn't get out their open-source compiler support until right around product launch time or even after, it's great seeing this Zen 6 support make it out well in advance this time. Especially with GCC's long release cycles and even with LLVM/Clang being on a six-month release cadence and it not being clear yet if it will get approved for back-porting to LLVM 22, at least LLVM 23 will be out in September that will still likely be ahead of the new Ryzen and EPYC processors launching. As one caveat, for now Zen 6 is still relying on the Zen 5 tuning information. Hopefully AMD gets out the proper instruction tuning/cost tables for Zen 6 in a timely manner still for making it into the next compiler releases. The belated tuning / cost tables remains one area where the AMD compiler sup...

The year is 2026. The future of humanity is under discussion thanks to the rise of artificial intelligence, as robots become eerily humanoid. And somehow, AMD's Windows driver auto-updater still downloads software insecurely (Web Archive link), as discovered by an individual identified only as Paul, an aspiring kiwi security researcher, who published his findings on a blog post that has since then been taken down "temporarily [...] due to a request." For now, it's unclear if the bug has been verified directly by AMD, but the author does note that the takedown is temporary, and it has generated intense interest online. According to Paul, when the auto-updater finds an eligible update, it proceeds to download it via an insecure connection. This opens up the possibility that an attacker in the same network or further down the line could simply pretend to be AMD's website, or modify the download in flight, adding spyware or ransomware — with administrator permissions, too. According to Paul, he took the responsible action and immediately reported the issue to AMD, only to be met with a somewhat canned reply stating that man-in-the-middle attacks are "out of scope," implying the bug will see no fix. Although Paul didn't specify, he likely reported the issue via AMD's bug bounty program, meaning he won't see a reward for his work. While the AMD rep is technically correct (often called the best kind of correct), should the situation be as described, then the bar for an attacker to clear is exceedingly low. The easiest way would be to redirect the ati.com domain to their own malware delivery, as the auto-updater will blindly trust it, or intercept the download and modify it, as insecure connections offer no integrity checking. Given that AMD wares are present in many computers, the potential attack surface is likely in the range of many millions. The fact that the vast majority of users let their devices automatically connect to known Wi-Fi networks wouldn't help matters an...

科技大厂在追求商业成功的同时，也要做重视原始创新的榜样。 人工智能（AI）发展日新月异，几乎每天都有大事发生。拿最近一个多星期来说，在国外—— Meta发布代号“牛油果”的新模型，计算效率提升10至100倍；谷歌开放世界模型Genie 3，可通过自然语言描述创建和探索3D虚拟世界；奥地利“极客”彼得·斯坦伯格“手搓”出能完成复杂任务的智能体OpenClaw，受到全球用户追捧；美国四大科技巨头公布2026年资本支出计划，总额高达约6500亿美元…… 在国内—— 阿里发布了超万亿参数规模的Qwen3-Max-Thinking模型，并计划近期推出Qwen 3.5；月之暗面开源了Kimi K2.5模型，在智能体任务、代码生成等方面取得显著进步；深度求索开源了OCR模型，字节跳动、百度等也有新模型计划发布；同时，阿里、腾讯、字节跳动等纷纷透露巨额AI投资计划。 但高潮还不是以上事件。2月5日，Anthropic和OpenAI在半小时内先后发布Claude Opus 4.6和GPT-5.3 Codex，被AI圈称为“火星撞地球”。国内最吸引眼球的，则是科技大厂们为争夺“AI超级入口”，投入40余亿元掀起“AI红包大战”。马云亲临阿里项目组“站台”，马化腾希望复制当年全国人民过年“摇一摇”的盛况。一时间，大街小巷好像个个都在抢红包，国产AI炙手可热。 可以看出，无论国外还是国内，围绕AI的竞争已进入白热化阶段。不过两个市场的竞争重点及呈现的特点稍有不同。国外以美国为代表，虽然资本市场也在担忧AI应用的前景和对传统产业的影响，但行业重心始终在底层技术和模型能力的突破；国内企业则在追求技术进步的同时，更急于推动应用落地和商业变现。两者的共同点则是巨头企业均不惜重金，大手笔投入。 很难断言谁的选择更为明智，但有些事情仍然可以讨论。因为一项颠覆性技术的发展走向，影响的不只是开发者，而是每一个人。Al红包大战很容易让人想起数年前的外卖大战、共享单车大战、网约车大战，甚至快递柜大战。它们本质上都是对用户入口和生活场景主导权的争夺‌，而争夺的最终目的，无疑是商业变现。 当年那些“大战”就引发过一些讨论。主要讨论的点是：在科技创新方面，国外巨头级公司的优先目标始终是“技术”和“未来”，国内企业则往往更关注“应用”和“当下”；国内企业有能力把几乎所有新技术转化为巨大商业成功，却很少成为新技术源头、...

Key Points Disney’s past leadership was pivotal in shaping the company into the powerhouse it is today. D’Amaro is a risk-tolerant CEO who will be instrumental in Disney’s global experiences expansion with parks and cruise ships. Disney has an attractive valuation and clear runway for future growth. 10 stocks we like better than Walt Disney › Three CEOs have shaped Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS) over its 100-year history. Visionary Walt Disney ran the company from 1923 to 1966. His brother, Roy O. Disney, who was instrumental in managing Disney's finances and making sure Walt's big ideas didn't bankrupt the company, came out of retirement to hold everything together after Walt's passing and fulfill his dream of opening Walt Disney World. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » The deepest period of uncertainty came between Roy's passing in 1971 and Michael Eisner's stepping in as CEO in 1984, alongside Frank Wells as COO and president. Eisner led Disney until 2005, when Bob Iger took the reins. Iger had his contract extended multiple times before finally passing the torch to his handpicked successor, Bob Chapek, in 2020. But Chapek lasted only until 2022, when Iger stepped back in to stabilize the company after a slew of box office flops, the bloating of Disney+'s budget, and plummeting park profits during the pandemic. With Iger's contract ending this year, Disney announced on Feb. 3 that Josh D'Amaro would become the next CEO, effective March 18. Here's why the move signals a vote of confidence in Disney's cash cow experiences segment, and what D'Amaro needs to do to turn Disney around. From magic to malaise Although Eisner and Iger both served unusually long stints as CEO, both of their performances were far stronger in the first half of their terms. Eisner was instrumental in restoring life t...

Lindsey Vonn is set to ski the Olympic downhill race with a torn ACL. How? toggle caption Marco Trovati/AP CORTINA D'AMPEZZO, Italy — Here in the Dolomites, with the 2026 Winter Olympics finally underway, there is one sentence heard in recent days more than any other: "If anyone can do it, Lindsey can." That Lindsey is, of course, Lindsey Vonn, the 41-year-old skiing superstar whose genuinely epic comeback from retirement to compete at these Olympic Games was suddenly thrown into jeopardy just over a week ago when she crashed during a race and tore her left anterior cruciate ligament, or ACL. Most athletes would bow out after such a serious injury. Instead, Vonn stunned the skiing world by announcing this week that she would compete anyway. Sponsor Message "It feels stable. I feel strong. My knee is not swollen. And with the help of a knee brace, I am confident that I can compete on Sunday [in the downhill race]," Vonn told reporters earlier this week. How can a skier ski on a torn ACL? The ACL, or the anterior cruciate ligament, connects the femur to the tibia and helps to stabilize the knee as it pivots — meaning it is key to athletes in sports like soccer, hockey and football, said Dr. Timothy Lin, an orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine doctor at Dartmouth Health who has worked with the U.S. ski team. In other sports, like football, an ACL tear can end an athlete's season. "In the NFL, you are constantly cutting and pivoting," Lin said. "Although you can tear your ACL skiing pretty easily, skiing is not necessarily a cutting and pivoting activity in and of itself." That's especially true of downhill, the straightest and fastest of the alpine disciplines. Skiers must turn and jump but spend much of the race skiing in line in a tucked position. Because of that, skiing in the downhill race, as Vonn plans to do Sunday, could be less risky than if she was competing in moguls or slopestyle. Sponsor Message In skiing, it's the unexpected crash, he says, that can twis...

Team GB's mixed doubles curlers moved to the brink of the Winter Olympics semi-finals with three matches still to play, as a statement victory over heavyweights Canada maintained their 100% record. US honorary coach, hype man and rapper Snoop Dogg was not in the house on Saturday, but Bruce Mouat and Jen Dodds made their own headlines, roaring into a 5-1 lead after just three ends before closing out a 7-5 triumph. The sense is six wins should be enough for a place in the last four and the British pair have already hit that mark to sit top of the round-robin standings. Only the US - who GB play at 13:35 GMT live on BBC Two - had beaten Canada's Brett Gallant and Jocelyn Peterman so far. But the husband-and-wife team could not compete with childhood friends Mouat and Dodds.

Investor Ross Gerber, co-founder of investment firm Gerber Kawasaki, has opined that Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) would be a division of X in the future.

South Korean crypto exchange Bithumb , which mistakenly distributed more than $40 billion worth of Bitcoin on Friday, said it will reimburse customers who made losses when they sold their holdings in a panic during a brief but sharp selloff on its platform. Bithumb had intended to award 620,000 won ($424) to winners of a promotion, but an employee keyed in Bitcoin instead of the Korean currency, Yonhap News reported , citing people it didn’t identify. The error led to the distribution of 620,000 Bitcoin to 695 users at 7 p.m. local time Friday, a mistake that was identified within 20 minutes, the exchange said. “An abnormal amount of Bitcoin was mistakenly distributed to some users,” the exchange said in a statement . “As some of the accounts proceeded to sell the credited Bitcoin, the Bitcoin price experienced a brief yet sharp fluctuation.” On Bithumb, prices on Friday evening briefly dropped 17% from around 98.29 million won, or $67,188, to 81.1 million won, or around $55,400. Trading volume soared, charts from the exchange showed. Bithumb started halting trading and withdrawals for the credited accounts at 7:35 p.m. and fully blocked it by 7:40 p.m., it said. The exchange managed to retrieve 99.7% of the distributed coins. Chief Executive Officer Lee Jae-won said some customers who were effectively pushed into “panic‑selling” during the brief window the error occurred will be reimbursed their full loss spread and be awarded an additional 10% bonus. “We offer our deepest apologies for the confusion and inconvenience,” Lee said in a statement on Saturday. “We acknowledge, with a deep sense of responsibility, that we failed to uphold the two core values that define a virtual‑asset exchange — stability and integrity.” As of 4 p.m. Saturday, the company estimated customer losses to be around 1 billion won. Bithumb will use its corporate assets to cover any shortfall to ensure customer balances are restored, it said. The Financial Services Commission said it convened ...

Carnival stock still hasn't fully recovered its early pandemic losses. Carnival (CCL +8.08%) (CUK +8.09%) faced tough times in early pandemic days. The company was forced to temporarily halt sailings, and that meant relying on debt to, excuse the pun, stay afloat. But in the years that followed, the world's biggest cruise operator demonstrated its ability to weather the toughest of times and emerge victorious. The company has worked to pay down a significant amount of debt, reached record revenue levels, returned to profitability, and shown that travelers love its cruises. The stock price has reflected these successes, climbing 50% over five years -- though the stock still hasn't fully recovered its early pandemic losses. Now, as Carnival continues to sail along its recovery and growth path, could the stock help you become a millionaire? Let's find out. Carnival's focus on profitability Carnival, as mentioned, struggled just a few years ago, particularly as it faced an enormous wall of debt. But the company made efforts to focus on profitability -- for example, replacing older ships with more fuel-efficient ones, and making moves to boost travelers' onboard spending. Carnival also aggressively paid down debt, focusing on variable-rate borrowings -- a great idea as this made the company less vulnerable to any potential interest rate increases.

Tesla just announced a big shift in its business direction that could change the company forever. There are many reasons to dislike Tesla (TSLA +3.47%). However, it is hard to deny that the company is highly innovative, as it essentially created the modern electric vehicle (EV) market. But the big reason to buy the stock right now may have nothing to do with EVs. Here are some things to think about before you buy Tesla stock. A controversial CEO and an expensive stock Elon Musk, Tesla's visionary CEO, is a polarizing figure. His actions and public statements, in and out of the business world, have impacted Tesla's stock for better and worse. If you can't stand the kind of volatility that comes with such a high-profile CEO, you probably shouldn't buy Tesla stock. Tesla stock, meanwhile, is expensive. There's no way around that, given that the price-to-earnings ratio is a massive 390. That's well above its five-year average P/E of 98, well above the S&P 500's (^GSPC +1.97%) 28, and shockingly higher than most auto competitors. The company's price-to-sales and price-to-book value ratios are also high on both an absolute and historical basis. If you are a value investor, you will not want to buy Tesla. But aggressive growth investors might actually appreciate the big decision that Musk just made. 1 reason the stock could soar In addition to EVs, Tesla's business includes battery storage and solar power products as well as self-driving taxis and humanoid robots. A bigger way to think about Tesla is as a play on the technology shifts taking place in the world. The EV business is helping fund investments in other areas.

You would be forgiven for thinking the rain this year has been relentless - because in some parts of the UK, it actually has been. Here at BBC Weather we have been watching computer models closely for signs of when that pattern will change. These computer-generated forecasts go out about two weeks into the future - and models have often been hinting at a change to colder and drier weather on that timescale. However, they have then reverted to the familiar wet pattern as we have got closer to the time. Now though, there are stronger signals of a change for some of us - albeit perhaps only a temporary one.

Veteran skier Lindsey Vonn has disputed a doctor's claim that her anterior cruciate ligament injury is not a "fresh tear", saying her ACL is "100% gone". American Vonn has now completed two impressive Winter Olympics training runs at Olimpia delle Tofane in Cortina, only one week after rupturing her ACL in a crash at a World Cup race in Switzerland. Vonn, 41, clocked the third-fastest time of the day in another session disrupted by the weather, prompting speculation about what is considered to be a serious injury. The second practice run came after she responded to a social media post from sports medicine doctor Brian Sutterer in which he claimed the 2010 Olympic downhill champion may have already been functioning on a torn ACL before the crash, which saw her airlifted to hospital. "What was the state of her ACL before the crash last week?" Sutterer wrote. "What she is doing now would not be nearly as surprising in an elite athlete whose knee was already functioning like the ACL was torn at baseline." Vonn replied: "Lol thanks doc. My ACL was fully functioning until last Friday. Just because it seems impossible to you doesn't mean it's not possible. And yes, my ACL is 100% ruptured. Not 80% or 50%. It's 100% gone." Sutterer suggested that "someone who had a prior tear/surgery may not be as swollen and painful with a repeat injury" and "the body has time to adapt and retrain muscles to support the knee" if the injury is "chronic". Vonn was 1.39 seconds off the fastest time of the day in Friday's training session, which took place in difficult weather and surface conditions. On Saturday she improved on her time, completing the run in one minute 38.28 seconds, 0.37 seconds off compatriot Breezy Johnson, who clocked the fastest run, and more than six seconds faster than the first run. Vonn is due to compete in Sunday's downhill competition but remains uncertain as to whether she will compete in the super-G and team events.

AMD expects 60% annual data center growth, but GPUs aren't the whole story. Shares of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD +8.32%) took a beating on Wednesday as investors digested the chip company's fourth-quarter report. AMD's results and guidance were generally solid, with revenue soaring 34% year over year in the fourth quarter and the company's outlook calling for 32% growth in the first quarter of 2026. One thing that stood out about AMD's outlook was its expectations for the data center segment. This segment houses AMD's EPYC server CPUs and its Instinct data center GPUs, and it grew revenue by 39% in the fourth quarter. AMD CEO Lisa Su expects growth to accelerate dramatically going forward. "...we are well-positioned to grow data center segment revenue by more than 60% annually, over the next three to five years and scale our AI business to tens of billions in annual revenue in 2027," Su said during the earnings call. AMD's AI accelerators will be a big part of the story as the company scales up its MI400 series chips and its Helios rack-scale solutions, but CPUs will play a surprisingly large role as well. As the AI industry has evolved from question-answer style chatbots to complex AI agents, the CPU is making a comeback and will help drive AMD's growth. AI agents are changing the story In a standard AI chatbot, the user asks a question, and the chatbot returns an answer drawn solely from its training data. This process happens entirely on the GPU. Agentic AI is fundamentally different. AI agents run in a loop. The user makes a request, and the agent must decide what to do first. Typically, an agent has a list of tools at its disposal. These tools could handle web searches, file access, data analysis, or running code written by the user or an AI agent. The big thing here is that this tool calling involves the CPU, not the GPU. Here's an example: Imagine an AI agent that produces an infographic of the 7-day weather forecast each day. First, it would make a tool cal...
