In many ways, referring to Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) as only a "cryptocurrency" does it a major disservice.

In many ways, referring to Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) as only a "cryptocurrency" does it a major disservice. Ethereum is much more than that -- it is also a blockchain ecosystem and a global, decentralized computing platform used by both individuals and large organizations. In short, a case can be made for Ethereum as the most useful cryptocurrency in existence. If you are looking for a defensive play to add to your portfolio during the current market downturn, look no further than Ethereum. One way to think about Ethereum is as "programmable money." Thanks to its pioneering use of smart contracts (self-executing pieces of computer code), Ethereum introduced investors to the world of decentralized finance (DeFi). Once Ethereum launched, it became possible to borrow, lend, and trade without the need for a financial intermediary. Continue reading

Sadler’s Wells, London This parody of courting rituals brings back its inaugural dancers 48 years on – ghosting their onstage choreography with footage of their younger selves, for a moving look at the passing of time ‘My name is Arthur, Arthur Rosenfeld. I’m nearly 74,” says the self-proclaimed “spritely old geezer” on stage. “My name is Meryl Tankard. I’m 70,” says the woman next to him. Josephi...
Sadler’s Wells, London This parody of courting rituals brings back its inaugural dancers 48 years on – ghosting their onstage choreography with footage of their younger selves, for a moving look at the passing of time ‘My name is Arthur, Arthur Rosenfeld. I’m nearly 74,” says the self-proclaimed “spritely old geezer” on stage. “My name is Meryl Tankard. I’m 70,” says the woman next to him. Josephine, 76; Ed, 80; John, 79 … these are some of our dancers this evening, performing live on stage but also accompanied by the ghosts of their younger selves. Kontakthof is the dance that keeps on giving. Created by the late Pina Bausch, German dance-theatre doyenne, in 1978, it’s set in a dance hall to songs of the 1930s. The piece is an oddly affecting parody of courting rituals and friction between the sexes – petty cruelties, intimidation, questions of consent. Like the nature documentary that briefly plays in the second half, it’s a detached observation of our species’ strange behaviour. Kontakthof has been performed in multiple iterations, most memorably in London in 2010 with two casts, one a group of teenagers, the other a company of nonprofessionals over 65, putting completely different filters of experience on exactly the same steps. This latest version devised by Tankard, however, is special. These eight dancers (a ninth was unable to perform this evening) are all members of the original cast, reunited, dancing their old roles. The backdrop is the film of their 1978 performance, so they are mirrored by the spectres of their younger selves; time folded in on itself. Continue reading...

Tashi-Delek/E+ via Getty Images Introduction The last time I covered EPR Properties ( EPR ), I highlighted their robust AFFO growth, solid fundamentals, and well-covered, attractive monthly dividend as they are undergoing a significant portfolio transformation. Following a solid year, ramped-up portfolio transformation, and a more attractive valuation and yield, EPR is upgraded to Strong Buy despite potential for near-term macro pressure, trading at a significant discount to its fair value. Portfolio Transformation Ramping Up EPR Properties IR EPR reported a solid 2025, with Q4 FFO being in line with the market's estimates alongside a beat on revenue, with the AFFO growing by ~7% to $398.2 million (slightly above my estimate of $395.80 million), while the AFFO/share also grew by a very solid ~6% compared to 2024. EPR Properties IR The year came with significant portfolio rebalancing activities, expanding their golf portfolio alongside other experiential properties in Q4 and announcing a massive $168.3 million in dispositions in 2025, selling 33 theaters over the past 5 years and currently having 1 more vacant theater left, aiming at reducing this theater exposure further alongside their small education portfolio. The company continued this expansion beyond Q4, recently announcing a deal for a portfolio of 7 regional parks in a $342 million transaction from Six Flags Entertainment ( FUN ), marking their largest acquisition since 2017 and further expanding their portfolio away from theaters - with the acquisition of 6 parks already closed and 1 more expected to close in Q2. For 2026, they expect this to accelerate, with guidance for $400 million to $500 million in investment spending (as previously expected) and $25 million to $75 million in disposition proceeds throughout the year, while the FFO, as adjusted per share is expected to reach $5.28 to $5.48, meaning an increase of 5.08% YoY.

ANATOLii SAVITSKii/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Apple ( AAPL ) was in focus on Wednesday as Wedbush Securities said the elongated lead times for the tech giant's Mac mini and Mac Studio computers are a “victory.” Shares rose more than 2% in premarket trading, amid the ceasefire between the U.S., Israel, and Iran. “Elongated lead times suggest the fruit company [Apple] is still adept at delivering new designs/products that meet the moment,” analyst Matt Bryson wrote in a note to clients. “And what appears to be strong demand is particularly of note in a period where overall PC shipments appear to be slumping given cost pressures due to higher memory pricing. And, we believe Apple appears well positioned to take share in its core handset market as well (with Apple seemingly not reducing builds unlike most of its peers).” Lead times for the Mac mini have slipped to at least four weeks, and in many configurations, are between two and three months. Lead times for the more expensive Mac Studio start at around two or three weeks, depending upon configuration, and in some cases, run more than a month. Many analysts have attributed the demand for the Mac mini to the rise of OpenClaw, which allows users to run agentic AI tasks locally on a machine. Nvidia ( NVDA ) CEO Jensen Huang said last month that OpenClaw “is the most popular open-source project in the history of humanity, and it did so in just a few weeks.” More on Apple Apple's Cheap AI Bet Is Paying Off Big Apple Before Q2: Weaponizing Memory Shortages And The Globalstar Acquisition Apple's Much-Needed Selloff Is Here - Resilient Prospects Trigger Buy Rating Prediction markets signal confidence in Apple's foldable iPhone Apple's foldable iPhone still set to arrive in 2026 despite reported hiccups

就在 OpenAI 都停了 Sora，所有人以为 Seedance 2.0 要一统天下的时候，没想到不知哪里冒出来一匹马。 周二晚间，在知名 AI 评测分析平台 Artificial Analysis 上，一个代号为「HappyHorse-1.0」的神秘视频生成模型空降榜首，引发了 AI 社区热议。 不论文字生视频还是图像生视频都是第一，把 Seedance 2.0 挤到了第二。 离谱的是它拉开的差距：这个登场仅一周左右的匿名模型，在「文本到视频」的纯视频生成类别中，Elo 积分飙到了 1347 分。 这是个什么概念？它领先了刚登顶五天的 Seedance 2.0 整整 74 分。要知道在目前的榜单上，从第二名到第十九名的分数差加起来也才刚够 70 分，这简直是一种「断层式碾压」。而且随着时间的推移，一二名的分差似乎还在拉大。 不过在包含原生音效的「视频 + 音频」综合排名上，HappyHorse 评分还是比 Seedance 2.0 低一点，屈居第二。 我们知道在 Artificial Analysis 上，所有排名均来自全球普通用户的「蒙眼二选一」的真实投票，模型团队是无法通过刷题的方法作弊的。另一方面，Seedance 2.0 最近一段时间因为极佳的连贯性和多镜头能力早已火出圈。HappyHorse 能在纯视觉观感上大幅领先于它，简直让人难以置信。 01 虽然目前 HappyHorse 是匿名的，也不提供 API 给你用，但人们已经利用评测平台对其进行了各种测试，社交网络上出现了不少视频生成的案例。 提示词：A hula hoop spinning on a kid's waist, gradually climbing to their chest, then dropping to knees, then clattering to the floor.

American Ocean Minerals (“AOMC”) and Odyssey Marine Exploration ( OMEX ) on Wednesday said they have agreed to merge in an all-stock transaction valuing the combined company at about $1 billion. The merged entity, to be named American Ocean Minerals Corporation and expected to list on Nasdaq under the ticker “AOMC”, will focus on deep-sea critical minerals exploration, harvesting, and processing.
