Gold Fields Ltd. said profit last year likely almost tripled as the miner benefited from bullion’s record-breaking rally. The Johannesburg-listed company said on Friday that its 2025 earnings are expected to be between $3.87 and $4.11 a share, an increase of 178% to 196% compared with the previous year. That “reflects a combination of materially higher gold prices” and “increased volumes of gold sold,” the firm said in a trading statement. Gold soared almost 65% last year as geopolitical upheaval drove investors toward the haven asset. Bullion continued to climb this year, hitting an all-time high of almost $5,600 on Jan. 29, before paring those gains. Gold Fields – which mines the precious metal in Australia, Chile, Ghana, Peru and South Africa – said it produced 2.4 million ounces of gold last year, 18% more than in 2024. The company will announce its full annual results later this month.

primeimages/iStock via Getty Images Stock futures inched higher Friday premarket, rebounding from Wall Street's prior sell-off as investors assessed Amazon's mixed earnings results. Here are some of Friday's biggest stock movers: Biggest stock gainers Roblox ( RBLX ) +14% - Shares jumped after Q4 engagement and bookings surged, easing concerns that tighter child safety measures would hurt platform activity. Daily average users rose 69% Y/Y to 144M, hours engaged jumped 88%, and bookings climbed 63% to $2.2B, topping expectations, while revenue rose 43% to $1.4B, slightly below estimates. Loss per share narrowed more than expected despite higher Trust & Safety costs, and upbeat guidance added to the rally, with Q1 sales forecast above consensus and full-year sales seen at $8.28B–$8.55B vs. $8.06B expected. Envista ( NVST ) +13% - Shares advanced after Q4 results beat expectations, with non-GAAP EPS of $0.38 topping estimates by $0.06 and revenue jumping 15% Y/Y to $751M, beating by $71M.

The outlook miss raised concerns about growth momentum, even as Doximity announced a $500M share buyback authorization, which failed to offset investor disappointment on guidance. Stellantis ( STLA ) -23% - Shares plunged after the automaker said it would sell its 49% stake in the battery joint venture NextStar Energy to partner LG Energy Solution for a nominal $100, marking a sharp reset of its EV strategy.

In this article GS Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Goldman Sachs has been working with the artificial intelligence startup Anthropic to create AI agents to automate a growing number of roles within the bank, the firm's tech chief told CNBC exclusively. The bank has, for the past six months, been working with embedded Anthropic engineers to co-develop autonomous agents in at least two specific areas: accounting for trades and transactions, and client vetting and onboarding, according to Marco Argenti, Goldman's chief information officer. The firm is "in the early stages" of developing agents based on Anthropic's Claude model that will collapse the amount of time these essential functions take, Argenti said. He expects to launch the agents "soon," though he declined to provide a specific date. "Think of it as a digital co-worker for many of the professions within the firm that are scaled, are complex and very process intensive," he said. Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon said in October that his bank was embarking on a multi-year plan to reorganize itself around generative AI , the technology that has made waves since the arrival of OpenAI's ChatGPT in late 2022. Even as investment banks like Goldman are experiencing surging revenue from trading and advisory activities, the bank will seek to "constrain headcount growth" amid the overhaul, Solomon said. The news from Goldman, a leading global investment bank, comes as model updates from Anthropic, co-founded by a former OpenAI executive, have sparked a sharp selloff among software firms and their credit providers as investors wager on who the winners and losers from the AI trade will be. watch now VIDEO 5:49 05:49 Are we in a 'SaaSapocalypse'?

It's important to look at this stock through a long-term lens. When Dan Ives talks about technology stocks, investors sit up and take notice. Ives, managing director and global head of tech research at Wedbush, has proven his ability to identify tomorrow's winners. He's remained bullish on tech stocks, even during difficult times, as he sets aside short-term headwinds and focuses on the long-term picture. For example, Ives kept his cool last year as potential import tariffs threatened to hurt U.S. tech companies' growth. (As it turned out, the U.S. exempted companies that are investing at home, eliminating the tariff risk for many.) Investors who followed Ives' advice and stuck with or even bought tech stocks at their lows went on to score a win. Just this week, Ives reiterated his price target on a tech stock that's climbed 1,700% over the past three years, implying the stock may gain 46% over the coming 12 months. Let's take a look at this potential winner. An Ives favorite This stock has been a longtime favorite of Ives, and he's championed it even as others worried about its soaring valuation. I'm talking about Palantir Technologies (PLTR 6.87%). Ives reiterated a $230 price target on the stock in a post on X this week, following the company's latest earnings report. Ives called it "another strong drop the mic quarter of beats across the board." Palantir has been on a winning streak for quite some time, posting quarter after quarter of earnings gains, and this is driven by two strong businesses: commercial and government. The company makes software that aggregates a customer's data, studies it, and uses conclusions to make better decisions, develop strategies, and much more. Palantir's Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), launched a few years ago, has emerged as a star product as it's driven by AI -- and therefore allows customers to immediately make use of this hot technology.

France ’s exports to the US of signature products including champagne and perfume slumped at the end of last year, weighed by President Donald Trump ’s tariffs and a weaker dollar. Shipments of spirits tumbled 47% on year in the final quarter of 2025, wine fell 39% and perfumes and cosmetics were down 25%, data from the French customs office showed. Part of the downturn is attributable to front-loading of exports at the start of the year in anticipation of Trump’s tariffs. But outbound trade at the end of 2025 was still well below comparable period of previous years, the customs office said on Friday. Its annual report on commerce also highlighted that exports of wines to the rest of the world were stable and drop in spirits were far less pronounced than to the US. A large part of the decline comes from a slump in prices to the American market, with the cost of champagne going to the US falling 20% on year in the second half of 2025. France’s exports of wines and champagne to the US has been a flash point in trade tensions after Trump floated a 200% levy last month. The French minister for trade, Nicolas Forissier , said such threats are unacceptable and would trigger a response from Europe.
