The company beat expectations, but its guidance was underwhelming. In January, Intel (INTC +0.86%) reported earnings that weren't all that great. While the company generated decent numbers, there were big question marks about how it would be able to meet the surging demand for chips. As a result, the stock proceeded to fall on the news. While it has been recovering recently, as of Monday, it was still down around 10% from where it was before it released its earnings numbers. With so much demand for chips and growth potential out there, plus the government also investing in Intel, could this be a great time for investors to load up on this tech giant? Intel's outlook for the year disappointed investors In Intel's most recent quarterly earnings report (for the quarter ending Dec. 27), the tech company did rather well, as it beat expectations on both the top and bottom lines. Revenue of $13.7 billion was higher than analyst projections of $13.4 billion, and its adjusted per-share earnings of $0.15 was better than expectations of only $0.08. But it was the company's revenue guidance for the current quarter that was of concern for investors. It came in slightly below the midpoint of what analysts were expecting ($12.2 billion versus $12.6 billion). The company is facing supply constraints, suggesting that it is struggling to meet demand. Management expects supply to improve as the year goes on, but the news has nonetheless weighed on investors' outlook for the stock. Another concern is that the company's chief financial officer, David Zinsner, says that increased memory prices could impact the business in the latter part of the year.

Three months into her tenure as Japan’s first female prime minister, Sanae Takaichi is connecting with younger voters in a way her predecessors failed. She plays KPop Demon Hunters’ “ Golden” on the drums with South Korea’s president and takes selfies with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni . In the evenings, she prefers to sharpen her policy knowledge at home, rather than wining and dining Japan’s old-guard business elite behind closed doors. From her handbags to her pink pens , orders are surging for items that have unexpectedly captured the zeitgeist. So far her PR strategy of presenting herself as different seems to have struck a chord with Japan’s youth, likely clawing back some of the votes lost to opposition parties with savvier social media reach in the upper house election last year. The question for Takaichi is how much that support will carry through in Sunday’s closely watched lower house election. “It feels like Japan’s changed,” said 21-year-old university student Genki Takahashi at a campaign rally for Takaichi on Tuesday, noting that all past prime ministers were men. “We’ve gone from tradition to innovation.” In some recent polls , support for Takaichi among those aged between 18 and 29 is nearly 90%. A survey by public broadcaster NHK taken right after Takaichi took office put her approval rating at 77% among 18-to-39-year-olds, compared with 38% and 51% respectively for her immediate predecessors, Shigeru Ishiba and Fumio Kishida , when they began their terms. “I think she’s really good at marketing herself,” said Kenshiro Kawasaki, a 24-year-old Takaichi supporter. Younger people are particularly sensitive to politicians’ image strategy, and voters more broadly were getting tired of the last few prime ministers, he added. Some supporters have even coined a new term for their fandom: Sanakatsu , derived from oshikatsu, a Japanese word usually reserved for cheering on pop idols. Homemaker Hitomi Sasaki was also listening to Takaichi speak Tuesda...

Despite a tender offer that’s below market price and an aggressive counter-campaign waged by Elliott Investment Management , the Toyota group can count on a handful of loyal shareholders to subscribe to its buyout proposal of supplier Toyota Industries Corp. Owners of 4.1% of Toyota Industries stock have expressed their intent to tender shares at the below-market offer of ¥18,800 per share. That includes Toyota affiliates and suppliers as well as major insurers like Aioi Nissay Dowa Insurance Co. , Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance Co. and Tokio Marine & Nichido Fire Insurance Co. The tender period closes on Feb. 12. Their willingness to side with management and the broader Toyota group despite the lowball pricing underscores the complexity of business dealings in Japan, and reflects the uphill battle facing Elliott in attempting to derail the transaction. For local investors in Japan, it’s not just price that will determine their support of the buyout, but also whether stable ownership and governance of the Toyota group — the country’s biggest and most important company — can be maintained. Domestic investors “are unlikely to deliberately stir up trouble, as they wish to maintain amicable business relations,” said Norikazu Shimizu , an analyst at Iwai Cosmo Securities. “While it’s an activist’s job to drive up prices and profit, companies actually running the business don’t operate that way. The goal is mutual development, aiming for improved capital efficiency by channeling proceeds from share sales into growth investments.” Elliott Stands a Chance at Foiling Controversial Toyota Deal Elliott Weighs Counter-Bid to Toyota Buyout, Nikkei Says Elliott Rejects Toyota Industries Bid, Urges Investors to Resist That divide is already apparent. One Toyota Industries investor, who asked not to be identified because of the sensitive nature of the transaction, said a key part of their decision would be whether the company could continue to have a meaningful role in Japanese society ...

The U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation on Tuesday to fund most of the U.S. government for the rest of the fiscal year, sending the bill to President Donald Trump for his signature, which he said he'll sign. Once signed, the consolidated appropriations bill will end the almost three-day partial shutdown that has affected several large agencies, including the Department of Labor, the Department of Education, the Department of Health and Human Services, and the Department of Defense. That means the bulk of government will be funded for the rest of the government's fiscal year, which ends on Sept. 30. The Department of Homeland Security will be funded through Feb. 13, giving Democrats a short period to push for changes to immigration enforcement policies. The House voted to pass the bill 217 to 214. A number of Republicans had threatened to block the legislation, but they walked back demands after Trump demanded that they pass the bill with no changes. The Senate had already approved the bill shortly before the partial government shutdown started on Saturday at 12:01 AM.

WASHINGTON, Feb 3 (Reuters) - The U.S. government and a majority of U.S. states on Tuesday will appeal the outcome of a landmark antitrust case against Alphabet's Google, according to court papers. A federal court judge in Washington in 2024 ruled Google has a monopoly in the online search business, but rejected the toughest remedies. The Department of Justice and state attorneys general did not provide details in court documents about their appeal. Their challenge will likely focus on the judge's decision not to make Google sell off its Chrome browser or end its lucrative arrangement with Apple to provide the default search engine on new devices. Google is already appealing U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta's ruling that it broke the law to stave off competition in online search and related advertising. Google has asked the judge to pause his order that would require the company to share data with rivals during the appeal process, which could last many months. Mehta rejected tougher remedies, such as making Google sell its Chrome browser or Android operating system, or banning the company from paying tens of billions of dollars to Apple to be the default search engine on new devices. In the five years since the DOJ and dozens of state attorneys general filed the civil case, generative artificial intelligence companies like OpenAI have emerged as competitive threats to Google, the judge said. The ruling was a major win for Google and a setback for U.S. antitrust enforcers who have found judges reluctant to interfere in fast-moving tech markets.

Palantir's fourth-quarter results once again blew past analyst estimates. To even have a chance of living up to its extraordinarily high valuation, Palantir (PLTR +6.75%) had to deliver another fantastic quarter when it reported earnings on Monday -- and preferably one featuring accelerating revenue growth. Fortunately for shareholders, that's exactly what the AI (artificial intelligence) data platform company did. Not only did Palantir's fourth quarter deliver massive revenue acceleration, but the company also provided impressive guidance for its fiscal quarter of 2026 and the full year. With growth accelerating, is the growth stock a buy? Or is its valuation simply too high? To fully grasp whether the stock is worth paying for at its current price, investors need to first carefully examine the company's mind-boggling growth, because it truly is exceptional. Accelerating growth Capturing Palantir's staggering momentum, its fourth-quarter revenue came in at $1.407 billion -- up 70% year over year and 19% sequentially. Further, the quarter's top-line growth rate accelerated significantly from Q3, when revenue grew 63% year over year to $1.181 billion. Palantir's U.S. business continued to be a driving force. Its revenue grew 93% year over year in the fourth quarter to $1.076 billion, and U.S. commercial revenue grew 137% year over year to $507 million. But there's a new important catalyst worth calling out for Palantir in its fourth-quarter results. Its U.S. government revenue grew 66% year over year to $570 million. This was a massive acceleration from 52% growth in the prior quarter. And this acceleration reverses a decelerating trend for Palantir's U.S government revenue in the prior quarter. "The strength of our U.S. government results reflects a fundamental reality," explained Palantir chief revenue officer Ryan Taylor during the company's fourth-quarter earnings call. "In an era of intensifying global threats and budgetary pressure, the government is turning to...

In this article CVX XOM Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Workers of Venezuelan state oil company PDVSA labour at an operating pumpjack in Lake Maracaibo, in Cabimas, Venezuela, Jan. 27, 2026. Leonardo Fernandez Viloria | Reuters The Trump administration could issue a general license as soon as this week for companies to produce oil and gas in Venezuela, a person familiar with the plan told CNBC on Tuesday. Chevron is the only U.S. company currently allowed to pump oil in Venezuela under a special license issued by the Treasury Department. Chevron has several joint ventures with state oil company Petróleos de Venezuela (PDVSA). President Donald Trump is pressuring the oil industry to invest at least $100 billion to repair Venezuela's energy industry after the U.S. captured former President Nicolás Maduro in raid on Jan. 3. "The President's team is working around the clock to ensure oil companies are able to make investments in Venezuela's oil infrastructure. Stay tuned," White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers said in a statement. Bloomberg first reported the news. Last week, the Treasury Department issued a general license that allowed U.S. companies to buy, sell, transport and refine Venezuelan crude oil among other activities. But that license did not include upstream production. Companies were previously barred from these activities under U.S. sanctions. The Venezuelan government last week also passed reforms to ease state control of its oil industry and give more autonomy to private companies. The oil industry's response to investing in Venezuela has been mixed. ExxonMobil CEO Darren Woods told Trump at the White House on Jan. 9 that the country needs big reforms and is " uninvestable " under its current system. Exxon has had its assets seized twice by the government in Caracas. Private wildcatters and smaller shale oil companies have shown more enthusiasm about the potential opportunity in the South American nation. Chevron CEO Mike Wirth told CNBC...

ImagineGolf/E+ via Getty Images Ovintiv ( OVV ) was initiated Tuesday with an Equal Weight rating and $44 price target at Stephens, which said the company's operational prowess is matched by the stock's attractive valuation, with an estimated 2026 EV/EBITDA ratio of 3.6x, or a 30% discount to the large-cap oil peer group average of 5.1x. Ovintiv's ( OVV ) upcoming sale of its Anadarko Basin assets could fetch ~$3.5B and allow net debt to be reduced by more than 65% this year, and with the anticipated balance sheet improvement, management expects to increase shareholder returns beginning in Q2 2026, Stephens analyst Mike Scialla said. The company's drilling and completion efficiencies ranked first or second among the most active operators in the Midland and Anadarko basins during the past two years, and its 2024-25 average well costs were among the lowest in each basin, Scialla said, adding that its Montney shale wells in Canada also have enjoyed better efficiencies and lower costs than peer averages. The recent free cash flow accretive acquisition of NuVista Energy, expected to close in Q1, will increase Ovintiv's ( OVV ) Montney drilling inventory by ~70% at a cost of ~$1.3M per location, the analyst added.
