SimoneN/iStock via Getty Images Ivanhoe Mines ( IVPAF ) was downgraded Monday by RBC Capital to Sector Perform from Outperform with a C$15 price target, lowered from C$19, following the company's updated Kamoa-Kakula mine plan which pushes out the recovery to full production to 2028. RBC's Sam Crittenden said he continues to see long-term value, and Kamoa-Kakula remains an outlier mine globally with the combination of scale and high grades; while new guidance likely is conservative, the analyst believes investor sentiment could remain subdued until the mine gets closer to reaching full production levels. Revised guidance of 290K-330K metric tons in 2026 from 380K-420K tons originally reflects a longer mine development path to access ore in the Kakula mine past the area that was impacted by the seismic event last May, and reserve tonnage and grades also came down due to the need for wider pillars and lower extraction ratios. Crittenden thinks Ivanhoe Mines ( IVPAF ) has the potential to realize significant value as output at Kamoa-Kakula ramps up and the company advances its planned expansions to turn the project into one of the world's largest high-grade and low-cost copper mines; the recent seismic event is a big setback, but he believes the company can return production close to prior levels by 2028.

Every weekday, the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer releases the Homestretch — an actionable afternoon update, just in time for the last hour of trading on Wall Street. Stocks opened the week on a positive note . The S & P 500 was higher for most of the session — outside of a brief pullback shortly after 1 p.m. ET as President Donald Trump held a news conference to highlight a successful rescue mission in Iran. The president didn't hold back the harsh rhetoric against Iran ahead of his Tuesday 8 p.m. ET deadline for opening the Strait of Hormuz. Still, a positive day for the S & P 500 by the close would mark its fourth straight. The stock gains came despite another positive day for West Texas Intermediate crude, which hit session-highs during Trump's news conference. WTI currently sits just below $114 per barrel. It was at $67 before the start of the war in the Middle East in late February. Despite the continued rally in oil, bond yields were relatively unchanged. Broadcom made a C-Suite change . Kirsten Spears will retire as chief financial officer and be succeeded by Alphabet executive Amie Thuener in June. In an announcement late last week, Broadcom said Spears will remain with the custom chip designer as an advisor for nine months following the transition. Thuener joins Broadcom by way of Alphabet, one of its closest customers, where she has served as a vice president, corporate controller, and chief accounting officer since 2018. We see no reason to expect anything but a smooth transition, given Spears' advisory position and Thuener's prior experience. Separately, we thought last week's strategic partnership between Nvidia and Marvell Technology was a move against Broadcom. We're a little less positive on Broadcom than we were at this time one week ago. There are no major earnings Monday evening or Tuesday morning. On the data side, durable goods orders and the New York Federal Reserve's inflation expectations are out before the bell. (See here for a full li...

The DJI Mic Mini is matching its all-time low. | Image: DJI If you regularly create content for TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube on the go, bad sound quality can easily take away from an otherwise great video. DJI’s Mic Mini helps you record clear, reliable sound for videos without carrying around bulky, expensive gear, and it’s currently down to its all-time low price. You can buy the mic with two transmitters for $59.99 ($20 off) at Amazon . DJI Mic Mini (with one mic and two transmitters) Where to Buy: $79 $59.99 at Amazon Built for on-the-go creators, the Mic Mini makes it easy to capture clearer audio than your phone or camera alone. It weighs just 10 grams, so it’s comfortable enough to wear all day, whether you clip it to your clothing or use a magnetic mount or lanyard. DJI also includes two transmitters, allowing you to record from farther away, with a range of up to about 400 meters. To give you more control over your sound, the receiver offers five adjustable volume levels, along with two noise cancellation modes. A basic setting works well for quieter indoor recordings, while the other is best suited for louder, crowded environments. It can also automatically lower the volume if things get too loud, so your sound stays clean and natural. It also supports USB-C and Bluetooth, and can work with older Apple devices using a Lightning adapter, though that’s sold separately. The transmitter can last up to 11.5 hours, while the receiver runs for up to 10.5 hours on a single charge, which is more than enough for longer shoots, interviews, or livestreams.

Organic Media/E+ via Getty Images With extreme volatility reigning in the stock market, many high-quality businesses have sold off to fire-sale levels. Our best move as long-term-oriented investors is to apply careful stock selection to find attractive buying opportunities where valuation multiples have completely disconnected from fundamental reality. On Holding ( ONON ), the Swiss shoemaker, is a perfect example of this. Since the start of the year, shares of On have shed ~30% of their value, putting the stock in a deep bear market. Losses picked up steam after the company's early March earnings release, when On's growth guidance for FY26 disappointed the markets. Data by YCharts I last wrote a buy article on On in March , after the company's Q4 earnings print. Since then, On has shed ~20% more value in a selloff that I believe has gone too far. I see a very opportunistic buying window here, and I'm upgrading the stock to a strong buy. Leadership Shakeup Isn't a Risk Let's start with the major news item that has caused On to plummet in recent sessions. In late March, On announced that its longtime CEO, Martin Hoffman, was retiring. There's no doubt that Hoffman has been the driving force behind On in the past two decades. He served five years as CEO and the previous 13 years as CFO, overseeing the brand's evolution from a small startup into a global apparel heavyweight. At the same time, we see no concerns here because his replacements are On's co-founders, who will become the new co-CEOs: David Allemann and Caspar Coppetti. The market is treating this change-up as bad news. I, however, don't see the return of the co-founders as highlighting any particular issues at On. In virtually any other company, a founder returning to lead a company would be read as a positive long-term commitment from major shareholders. We think this is especially true as On is largely a consumer-driven company. This isn't a leadership change that will severely impact sales teams or scuttl...

quantic69/iStock via Getty Images Elevator Thesis The Permian is fascinating, and Texas Pacific Land Corporation ( TPL ) is at the center of it, to say the least. The company has a huge land base in the Permian and gets royalties on oil and gas production as well as stable revenue on water sales and produced-water handling. On paper, TPL looks like a cash machine without the inconvenience of running wells. The production reached 34.6 thousand BOE per day in FY 25, and it pushed land and water revenues to $490 million and $308 million, respectively. Even TPL’s new projects might ultimately generate upside. Additionally, it is marketed as a stable compounder, and its stock has surged. That said, TPL cannot control output and is fully reliant on operators. The drilling lag brings a drop in royalties, which is what the 14% YTD pullback in the stock showed. Moreover, peak earnings are not a novel benchmark. Even an increase in oil prices or short-term geopolitical spikes is not likely to stimulate growth unless the drilling activity is boosted. Furthermore, it has a lofty valuation, as forward multiples are notably higher than the industry averages. The potential upside is outweighed by the downside; therefore, I am assigning TPL a Sell rating at the current levels. Peak Activity Conditions Are Normalizing TPL was performing well in the shale boom. The operators were drilling aggressively, and the increase in production was directly translated to cash per share. Oil and gas production rose 29% annually in FY 25, and this led to record water revenues and royalties. TPL Q4 Revenues (TPL Results) The snapshot above shows an upward trend in revenues. Well, these numbers were not fueled by the drilling operations under the control of TPL itself. The operators moved more on TPL's land, and it gained momentum from that push. The production saw an annual growth from 26.8 to 34.6 thousand BOE per day due to more activity in its acreage. That momentum, however, started deceleratin...

As we have been reporting on Ars , NASA's Artemis II lunar mission has been going rather well so far. Of course, Orion's big test is yet to come with the fiery reentry through Earth's atmosphere on Friday. But so far, it's looking like the rocket and spaceship needed for a lunar landing are getting there for NASA. The biggest remaining piece of the architecture, therefore, is a lunar lander. Known in NASA parlance as the Human Landing System, or HLS, the space agency has contracted with SpaceX for its Starship vehicle and Blue Origin and its Blue Moon lander. Last year NASA asked both companies for options to accelerate their lunar landers, and both replied that not having to dock with the Lunar Gateway in a highly elliptical orbit, known as near-rectilinear halo orbit, would help a lot. So the space agency has removed that requirement. Read full article Comments
