A 13-year-old boy poses at his home as he looks at social media on his mobile phone in Sydney on December 8, 2025. (Photo by Saeed KHAN / AFP via Getty Images) Saeed Khan | Afp | Getty Images Spain announced plans on Tuesday to introduce an Australia-style social media ban for under-16s as part of a broader crackdown on tech giants over systemic failures to protect users from harm. Pedro Sanchez, the prime minister of Spain, spoke at the World Government Summit in Dubai and decried the misconduct of social media platforms. Sanchez said teens under 16 will be unable to access social media platforms starting next week as part of a series of five government measures targeting the platforms. "Social media has become a failed state, a place where laws are ignored, and crime is endured, where disinformation is worth more than truth, and half of users suffer hate speech," Sanchez said. "A failed state in which algorithms distort the public conversation and our data and image are defied and sold." He explained that to enforce a ban for under-16s, "platforms will be required to implement effective age-verification systems — not just checkboxes, but real barriers that work." Sanchez added: "Today, our children are exposed to a space they were never meant to navigate alone: a space of addiction, abuse, pornography, manipulation, and violence. We will no longer accept that. We will protect them from the digital wild west." Australia banned social media for under 16s a month ago — here's how it's going Spain is the first European country to officially introduce a ban after Australia's Online Safety Amendment Act came into effect in December. It effectively required platforms such as Meta's Instagram, ByteDance's TikTok, Alphabet's YouTube, Elon Musk's X, and Reddit to implement age-verification measures or face a fine of up to 49.5 million Australian dollars ($32 million) for non-compliance. Spain has yet to define which firms are affected by its new rules, but Sanchez criticize...

Palantir Technologies PLTR shares climbed about 8% in after-hours trading on Monday after the data analytics firm reported fiscal fourth-quarter results that smashed market expectations. The company posted revenue of about $1.4 billion, topping analyst forecasts. Earnings per share of $0.24 also exceeded estimates. Management said demand for its artificial intelligence software continued to rise across commercial and government clients. U.S. revenue showed the strongest growth. Commercial sales in the U.S. rose nearly 140% from a year earlier, while U.S. government revenue increased about 66%. Total new contract value reached a quarterly record of roughly $4.3 billion, up about 140% year over year. Palantir said its adjusted operating margin expanded to about 57%, reflecting higher software usage and operating leverage. The company has been shifting more of its business toward standardized platforms rather than customized projects. For 2026, Palantir guided for revenue of around $7.2 billion and operating income near $4.1 billion. The company said customer demand for AI-driven decision tools remains strong, though it noted that spending patterns could vary by region. At the close of regular trading, the stock was already higher on the session. The move pushed shares toward recent multi-year highs, as investors focused on growth momentum and profitability trends.

Key Takeaways Palantir's stock has mostly fallen over the past three months. Things are looking more positive today. The AI software company late Monday reported better-than-expected quarterly results and issued a rosy outlook for revenue growth. Palantir is bouncing. Shares of the AI-powered software company were sharply higher early Tuesday, looking set to reverse a slide that has lasted about three months. Palantir's (PLTR) stock—recently up about 10% premarket to near $163—may today eat into year-to-date losses; the shares finished 2025 at just under $178 apiece. Last night's release of an upbeat sales outlook and quarterly financial results—both which were better than Wall Street expected—as well as some braggadocio in a letter from CEO Alex Karp, is powering the shares higher this morning. Those numbers may also help reassure some investors that software stocks aren't necessarily all doomed to be devoured by AI. (That's not a unanimous determination, but it's undoubtedly a concern.) Why This News Matters to Investors A strong and positive market reaction to Palantir's latest results and outlook could encourage some investors to think twice about selling software stocks—though, given the negativity around the segment lately, that's far from certain. "Palantir's momentum increasingly stands out in a software market where accelerating growth stories are rare," Citi analysts wrote. They have a $260 price target on the stock, suggesting nearly 80% upside from last night's close under $150. That's also well above the Street average, currently calculated by Visible Alpha as just over $189. That price, too, suggests quite a bit of room to climb, though the stock is so far eating into that this morning. The good news hasn't entirely dispelled the notion that the shares may be overvalued. Jefferies analysts, who have a bearish rating on the stock, maintained a $70 price target that suggests a more-than-50% fall from Monday's close. That take, the bank noted, was less ab...

Equity LifeStyle Properties ( ELS ) was upgraded to Buy from Neutral at BofA Securities after the single-family residential REIT reported its fourth-quarter results. On January 28, ELS reported Q4 FFO of $0.79, which beats by $0.01, and revenue of $373.9M (+0.4% Y/Y), which misses by $8.36M. "We view stable manufactured home (MH) and annual recreational vehicle (RV) revenue as the primary growth driver for ELS," said BofA analysts. "Demand for ELS's primarily age‑restricted MH portfolio is more driven by demographics and the migration of retirees," said the analysts. "ELS's customer base is less sensitive to macro volatility. We forecast 5.1% NOI growth in 2026, which is at the high end of our residential coverage." The research note said that demographic trends remain a structural tailwind for the company. BofA Securities raised its 2026 FFO estimate to $3.19 from $3.18, vs. $3.18 consensus , and 2027 FFO estimate to $3.39 from $3.35, vs. $3.35 consensus. The investment bank increased its price objective on the stock to $76 from $74. ELS closed Monday 0.05% higher at $63.20. More on Equity Lifestyle Properties Equity LifeStyle Properties, Inc.

Russia’s crude shipments are holding steady even as pressures intensify on the country’s critical oil trade. China is once again the biggest buyer of Moscow’s barrels as its purchases rise while flows to India plunge to the lowest in more than three years. Volumes averaged 3.27 million barrels a day in the four weeks to Feb. 1, according to vessel-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg. That’s up slightly from the revised figure for the period to Jan. 25, but down by about 600,000 barrels a day from the pre-Christmas peak. Deliveries of Russian crude into Indian ports continued to fall last month, dropping to about 1.12 million barrels a day from 1.2 million in December, to leave the January import figure at the lowest since November 2022. India’s refiners have provided a lifeline to Moscow’s oil exporters, stepping in to take the barrels shunned by their European counterparts. The drop coincided with a European Union ban on imports of refined products made from Russia’s crude. The hurdles facing exporters could soon get even higher, if India follows through on an apparent deal with the US, potentially imperiling the Kremlin’s war chest. That accord would see Washington slash import tariffs on Indian goods, while New Delhi would, among other things, halt purchases of Moscow’s crude, according to President Donald Trump’s interpretation . India’s premier made no mention of Russian oil when discussing the deal, and refiners are seeking government guidance . The drop in flows to India has been offset by an increase in the amount being delivered to China. Tracking data show 1.65 million barrels a day of crude offloaded at Chinese ports in January. That’s the most since March 2024 and the second-highest monthly total since Moscow’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. The tankers seen idling near Oman in recent weeks have largely dispersed. Most have now headed to Indian ports after delays of as long as six weeks, while two have headed through the Strait of Malacca to China. Meanwhile,...

asbe/iStock via Getty Images Fast Facts About the Invesco DB US Dollar Index Bearish Fund ETF The Invesco DB US Dollar Index Bearish Fund ETF ( UDN ) is an inverse ETF based on the U.S. Dollar Index launched on February 20, 2007, with a net expense ratio of 0.73%. It is a small ETF with $136 million of AUM (assets under management), but it is liquid enough for investors and small traders, with an average daily dollar volume of $3.7 million. The issuer, Invesco ( IVZ ), is an investment management company headquartered in Atlanta, with $2.2 trillion of total AUM and whose flagship is the Invesco QQQ Trust ( QQQ ). Strategy UDN is the counterpart of the Invesco DB US Dollar Index Bullish Fund ( UUP ). It is a shortcut and an approximation to say that these funds are based on the Dollar Index ( DXY ). As described by Invesco , UDN is not formally linked to DXY. It tracks the Deutsche Bank Short USD Currency Portfolio Index, plus the interest income from Treasury securities and money market instruments held by the fund, minus its expenses. DXY is based on currency rates, while UDN's underlying index is based on USDX futures contracts, which themselves are based on the Dollar Index. The Deutsche Bank Short USD Currency Portfolio Index defines how futures must be rolled, and it may be affected by the roll yield due to contango/backwardation . The index uses futures expiring in March, June, September, and December. It is rolled quarterly from the near-month futures shortly before their expiration to futures expiring three months later. Additionally, UDN pays a dividend corresponding to the difference between the interest on collateral and net expense. The trailing 12-month distribution yield is 2.90%.

Key Points Sandisk is seeing huge revenue growth driven by high NAND prices. Meanwhile, gross margins have greatly expanded, and profits are soaring. 10 stocks we like better than Sandisk › Sandisk (NASDAQ: SNDK) was one of the market's hottest stocks over the past year, and its incredible run became even more impressive after the stock surged following its fourth-quarter earnings report. The semiconductor stock is already up more than 166% in 2026 alone, as of this writing. Sandisk is one of the world's leading makers of NAND (flash) memory. NAND manufacturers dramatically reduced production a few years ago after a price crash, as gross margins turned negative due to oversupply. However, demand started to skyrocket as artificial intelligence (AI) data centers require huge, high-performance solid-state drives (SSDs) using flash memory to hold training data. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » Meanwhile, memory makers have been slow to resume production, with many focusing more on high-margin, high-bandwidth memory (HMB). HMB is a specialized form of DRAM (dynamic random access memory) that is essential for helping graphics processing units (GPUs) and other AI chips perform at their best. HBM also requires considerably more wafer space, which is drawing resources away from other types of memory. This is leading to a huge supercycle in the memory market where prices are skyrocketing. Huge earnings growth These dynamics showed up in Sandisk's fiscal Q2 results, as revenue surged 61% year over year to $3 billion. Data center revenue soared 76% to $440 million, driven by AI data center expansion and increased NAND usage per deployment. Its Edge segment, which includes smartphones and PCs, saw revenue climb 63% to $1.7 billion, while the consumer segment, which consists of things like flash drives, saw revenue jump 52% to $907 million. The revenue growth was driven by higher...

Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian refineries dropped to a six-month low in January, allowing the Kremlin to increase fuel supplies to the domestic market and resume gasoline exports. Ukraine hit just three Russian refineries during the month, down from 11 in December, according to statements from officials in both nations. All the affected plants were small, independent operations. Together, they account for less than 7% of Russia’s typical January output, according to Bloomberg estimates. The lull in drone strikes has given some breathing space to Russian refiners, many of which had to halt or scale back operations last year due to repeated, high-precision hits. The effects of a calmer January can already be seen in the government’s move to lift its ban on most gasoline exports, allowing producers to restart shipments a month earlier than planned. “The supply and demand balance has stabilized,” Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said Tuesday. “Moreover, we now have a surplus” of car fuels. While Russia previously halted gasoline exports to ensure sufficient domestic supply, now it would risk overstocking and might have to pull back refining runs if it didn’t allow producers to sell abroad, he said. The country’s refining industry is still not operating normally. The nation processed an estimated 5.3 million barrels a day last month, compared with normal January levels of more than 5.6 million barrels a day, according to analytics firm OilX. Ports, Terminals It’s not just refineries that saw fewer attacks last month. Other Russian energy assets such as ports, offshore oil fields and terminals saw a similar drop-off. Toward the end of last year, Ukrainian strikes targeted drilling platforms in the Caspian Sea, as well as Black Sea port infrastructure including facilities of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, which operates a critical export route for Kazakhstan. In January, Moscow said Ukraine hit two tankers near the CPC oil terminal, a claim not confirmed by Kyiv...

Listen to the article 4 min This audio is auto-generated. Please let us know if you have feedback Dive Brief: Booming demand for energy storage propelled Tesla’s stationary battery deployments to a fresh record in the fourth quarter of 2025 as its electric vehicle deliveries slowed sharply, the company said on Wednesday. Two Korean battery manufacturers, LG Energy Solution and Samsung SDI , also reported strong stationary storage demand last quarter and said they expected more of the same in 2026. Both said their energy storage businesses helped offset slowing North American EV demand. The Korean manufacturers said U.S. tax credits for battery manufacturing and deployment would drive business in the coming quarters. Tesla executives also said its energy storage business would expand despite ongoing uncertainty around U.S. tariff policy. Dive Insight: Tesla deployed 14.2 GWh of energy storage in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 46.7 GWh in the full year. The quarterly and annual figures were up 29% and 49%, respectively, from the same period in 2024. Meanwhile, Tesla’s vehicle deliveries fell 16% year over year in the fourth quarter. Across the board, North American EV sales fell 46% from a record third quarter after the U.S. tax credit for consumer EV purchases and leases expired, according to Cox Automotive. EV sales growth remains strong outside North America, rising about 20% globally in 2025. Tesla said its energy business, which produces stationary storage and solar PV systems, saw record profit margins for the fifth consecutive quarter. Demand was strong “in all regions” and across the company’s Powerwall home battery and Megapack grid-scale product lines, Chief Financial Officer Vaibhav Taneja said Wednesday. Tesla plans to begin Megapack production this year at a new plant near Houston. The factory will produce up to 50 GWh of Megapack 3 systems annually, the Houston Chronicle reported in September. Tesla already has 80 GWh of combined Megapack production capa...

RA'ANANA, Israel, Feb. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inspira™ Technologies OXY B.H.N. Ltd. (NASDAQ: IINN, IINNW) (“Inspira Technologies” or the “Company”), a pioneer in innovative life-support and diagnostic technologies, today announced the successful validation in the Company’s advanced blood labs of its Next-Generation Standalone HYLA™ System. Designed to function independently of the Company’s respiratory support devices, this new configuration allows Inspira Technologies to penetrate the broader approximately $50 billion heart-lung surgery market immediately upon clearance. In advanced bench testing, the system demonstrated 94.2% accuracy for the continuous optical measurement of Partial Pressure of Carbon Dioxide (pCO₂), a performance level that aligns with clinical needs. The validation data confirms that the HYLA™ optical sensor tracks real-time patient status with high fidelity. The observed 94.2% accuracy for pCO₂ is a critical achievement, demonstrating concordance with gold-standard blood gas analyzers within a tight 7 mmHg threshold. By providing continuous, non-invasive visibility into a patient's metabolic status, HYLA™ eliminates the 'blind spots' associated with intermittent blood draws, potentially reducing complications during heart-lung machine and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) procedures. This validation marks a strategic evolution for the HYLA™ platform. By decoupling the sensor from Inspira Technologies’ life-support hardware, the Company is advancing a standalone system capable of integrating into any existing operating room or ICU workflow. This 'universal compatibility' strategy significantly expands Inspira Technologies's total addressable market and activates a high-margin, recurring revenue model based on the sale of disposable optical sensors and modular software upgrades. Dagi Ben-Noon, CEO stated: "This validation confirms our technology operates at a clinical grade. By offering HYLA as a standalone solution, we can enter ...
