Israel said Friday that it will reopen the pedestrian border crossing between the Gaza Strip and Egypt in both directions over the weekend, marking an important step forward for US President Donald Trump’s Gaza ceasefire plan. COGAT, the Israeli military body in charge of coordinating aid to Gaza, said in a statement that starting on Sunday a “limited movement of people only” would be allowed through the Rafah crossing, Gaza’s main gateway to the outside world. The announcement followed statements from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Ali Shaath, newly appointed to head the Palestinian administrative committee governing Gaza’s daily affairs, that it would likely open soon. Advertisement COGAT said both Israel and Egypt will vet individuals for exit and entry through the crossing, which will be supervised by European Union border patrol agents. In addition to screenings at the crossing, Palestinians leaving and returning will be screened by Israel in the adjacent corridor, which remains under Israeli military control. The crossing has been under a near complete closure since Israel seized it in May 2024, saying the step was part of a strategy to halt cross-border arms smuggling by Hamas. It was briefly opened for the evacuation of medical patients during a short-lived ceasefire in early 2025. The Rafah border crossing between Egypt and the Palestinian territories.

Douglas Rissing/iStock via Getty Images Market observers have been eagerly awaiting President Trump’s next pick for Federal Reserve ("Fed") Chairman. In 2018, he elevated current Chairman, Jerome Powell, to the role after declining to renominate then Chair, Janet Yellen, for a second term. Historically, there has been the underlying presumption that President Trump seeks loyalty and expects those he elevates to bend to his will. For the Fed specifically, this largely entails adjusting interest rates to the whims of his political pressure. Though a Trump appointee, Powell has always maintained an independent posture through his entire term, even in the face of a vehement pressure campaign . To little surprise, then, Trump soured on Powell through his term. With his second chance, the expectation was that Trump’s next pick would be a more malleable candidate. In a previous Seeking Alpha (“SA”) Asks Roundtable, I had provided my opinion that Kevin Hassett would be the eventual pick. My justification at the time was primarily due to the sentiment and commentary at the time surrounding his fit for the mold. Today, the pick is in, and it is a Kevin, but not the one that I had been expecting previously. Trump’s pick of Kevin Warsh to lead the Fed may have important implications for the future trajectory of interest rates and for the broader market performance, especially in the second half of the calendar year. Seeking Alpha - 1YR Performance Of DJI, SPY, & NDX With all three indexes trading at their highs, including the Dow Jones Industrial Average ( DJI ), S&P 500 ( SPY ), and Nasdaq Composite ( NDX ), markets are more exposed to risks, and even minor developments could send one or all of the indexes lower. I ultimately believe a less independent Fed will be negative for markets due to the increased volatility. Here’s everything you need to know about President Trump’s next Fed pick. Who Is Kevin Warsh? Kevin Warsh is no stranger to financial markets or monetary policyma...

The makers of Amazon’s Melania documentary have defended its exorbitant cost following accusations of bribery to appease the Trump empire. Amazon paid $40 million to Melania Trump’s production company for the film rights and another $35 million for marketing — making it one of the most expensive documentaries ever produced. “I think it’s silly because there’s a feature film and three episodes,” director Brett Ratner told Deadline at last night’s premiere. “We spent more money on music in this than I did on Rush Hour. I mean, top of the line, three best cinematographers in the world, at the highest level. Eighty people on the first day of shooting in my crew. That’s not unheard of in a documentary. You put the money on the screen.” That budget is, actually, pretty unheard of for a documentary, sparking criticism that it’s a $75 million bribe. The New York Times notes that the $35 million marketing budget for Melania is 10 times higher than the average spend for big documentaries, despite only taking 20 days to shoot. The first lady herself is expected to personally pocket $27 million from Amazon’s $40 million licensing deal, according to The Wall Street Journal. Melania Trump — who is also a producer on the project — says Melania isn’t a documentary at all, but in fact a “creative experience that offers perspectives, insights and moments.”

Cathie Wood didn't do a lot of trading last week, but the co-founder, CEO, and widely followed stock picker at Ark Invest changed her tune coming out of the Memorial Day holiday weekend, adding to 10 of her existing positions. What is she buying? Some of the more interesting purchases for Ark Invest on Tuesday were UiPath (NYSE: PATH), Roblox (NYSE: RBLX), and Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD). Wood thinks this is a good time to add to these stakes. Let's take a closer look. 1. UiPath Timing is everything when it comes to robotics. The same can be said about timing and robotics stocks. Wood added more UiPath to her portfolio on Tuesday. The provider of software solutions for robotics and automation reports its fiscal first-quarter results after the market close on Wednesday. The stock has been a market laggard this year, down 25% so far in the 2024 calendar year. Analysts are holding out for marginal improvement on the adjusted bottom line with a 15% increase in revenue for this week's report. This is half the 31% top-line jump it posted in its previous financial update. The bad news is that UiPath is slowing after posting accelerating revenue growth through all four quarters of fiscal 2024. The good news is that it's hard not to be bullish on the future of robotics. The pandemic helped shine a light on a manpower shortage that could've been easier to survive if there were more automation in the workplace. Rising labor costs should also bring more enterprises to UiPath's door. Investors will be hoping for another beat out of UiPath on both ends of the income statement shortly after Wednesday's closing bell. It has trounced adjusted earnings profit targets over the past year. You should also keep an eye on UiPath's dollar-based net retention rate. It's a great metric that shows how much returning customers are spending on a platform over the past year compared to the previous 12-month period. It was 119% in March, meaning that returning customers are spending 19% ...

The fourth quarter earnings season kicked into high gear this week, with Big Tech results from Microsoft (MSFT), Meta (META), Tesla (TSLA), and Apple (AAPL) headlining the earnings calendar. An optimistic consensus is forming: As of Jan. 23, 13% of S&P 500 (^GSPC) companies have reported fourth quarter results, according to FactSet data, and Wall Street analysts estimate an 8.2% increase in earnings per share for the fourth quarter. If that rate holds, it would represent the 10th consecutive quarter of annual earnings growth for the index. S&P 500 earnings growth estimates. (Chart: FactSet) Heading into the reporting period, analysts were expecting an 8.3% jump in earnings per share, down from the third quarter's 13.6% earnings growth rate. Wall Street has raised its earnings expectations in recent months, especially for tech companies, which have driven earnings growth in recent quarters. Although Big Tech continues to set the tone, this earnings season promises to test the improved stock market breadth that has emerged at the start of 2026. Plus, the themes that drove the markets in 2025 — artificial intelligence, the Trump administration's tariff and economic policies, and a K-shaped consumer economy — will continue to provide plenty for investors to parse. In addition to the reports from four of the "Magnificent Seven" tech stocks, Wall Street received updates from a wide swath of companies across the economy, including UnitedHealth (UNH), Boeing (BA), General Motors (GM), IBM (IBM), Starbucks (SBUX), Levi Strauss (LEVI), Visa (V), American Express (AXP), Mastercard (MA), Caterpillar (CAT), Exxon Mobil (XOM), Chevron (CVX), AT&T (T), and Verizon (VZ), LIVE 91 updates Story continues For the latest earnings reports and analysis, earnings whispers and expectations, and company earnings news, click here Read the latest financial and business news from Yahoo Finance

Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) Bull, Base, & Bear Stock Price Prediction and Forecast (Jan 30) 24/7 Wall St.

石药集团的一则合作，创造了两个意想不到的结果。 其中之一是其BD规模之大，超出市场预期。 1月30日，石药集团正式宣布与阿斯利康达成研发合作协议。根据协议，石药集团将获得12亿美元的预付款，并有权获得最高35亿美元的潜在研发里程碑付款、最高138亿美元的潜在销售里程碑付款，以及基于相关授权产品年净销售额、最高达双位数比例的销售提成。 12亿美元的首付款，仅次于三生制药与辉瑞的合作。 然而，与之形成鲜明反差的是其惨淡的股价表现——当日股价低开低走，最终跌幅达10.2%。这也让投资者质疑，BD消息是否提前泄露。 无论此次股价暴跌是否与石药集团的保密工作不到位有关，这一现象都清晰指向一个核心结论：医药行业单纯炒作BD的时代，已经彻底翻篇了。 “翻车”的石药 石药集团翻车了。 从交易规模来看，这无疑是中国创新药历史上最大的交易之一——石药集团与阿斯利康达成的研发合作协议，潜在总交易额高达185亿美元。 尽管这笔巨额交易中，包含最高35亿美元的研发里程碑付款和最高138亿美元的销售里程碑付款，这类款项受研发进度、市场销售等不确定因素影响较大，更像是“画饼”，但12亿美元的首付款却是实打实的收益。 12亿美元的首付款规模，在国内药企海外授权交易中仅次于三生制药。这对于正面临业绩承压的石药集团来说，无论是短期业绩增厚，还是现金流补充，都堪称一剂“强心针”。 令人意想不到的是，资本市场却给出了截然相反的反馈。交易公告发布当日，石药集团港股股价低开低走，跌幅一度超12%，最终收跌10.2%；其A股子公司新诺威股价同步受挫，一度跌逾17%。 如此惨淡的走势，与石药集团此前“发明”的预告式BD所带来的市场效应，形成了巨大反差。 2025年5月30日，其发布的BD“预喜”公告吸引了全市场目光。公告披露，包括EGFR ADC在内的多款产品正处于BD磋商阶段，涉及3项潜在交易，每笔交易的潜在首付款、里程碑付款及商业化分成合计约50亿美元，其中一项交易已进入后期阶段，预计6月完成。 如此重磅的BD消息，原本是为了对冲不及预期的业绩。但在牛市里，意想不到的成为股价发动机，直接推动石药集团股价应声大涨，公告发布当日市值再度逼近千亿大关，此后更持续创下阶段新高，远超千亿。 正是凭借这次成功先例，石药集团开创的BD预告模式，逐渐在行业内走向“常态化”，不少药企纷纷效仿，试图通过BD消息提振股价。然而，从...

Key Points Alphabet has shown that it can adapt and thrive due to artificial intelligence (AI), calming investor fears. The stock is trading at 33 times its trailing earnings, which is a bit higher than its 10-year average. 10 stocks we like better than Alphabet › The share price of Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG)(NASDAQ: GOOGL) has been on fire over the past year, rising by 65%. The stock's valuation has climbed to $4.06 trillion as it has hit a new all-time high, and it has become the second-most valuable company in the world, behind only Nvidia. After such an impressive run-up in value, however, you may be having second thoughts about the stock as it has gotten much more expensive. Are you better off waiting for a pullback in price before buying Alphabet's stock, or can it still be a good buy right now? Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now, when you join Stock Advisor. See the stocks » Has Alphabet's stock gotten too expensive? A rising valuation doesn't necessarily mean a stock is expensive. If earnings have been strong and investors have simply been discounting the stock due to other factors, a rally may have been overdue. In Alphabet's case, investors were hesitant about the stock due to concerns around artificial intelligence (AI) and how that might adversely affect Google Search. But now that Alphabet has shown that it can do well and incorporate AI into its search results effectively, and with its Gemini chatbot providing formidable competition to OpenAI's ChatGPT, it has put those fears to rest. As a result, investors have become bullish on the stock once again, resulting in impressive gains over the past year. The stock's price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple has risen to 33, which is more than the S&P 500 average of 27, but it's arguably not an egregious valuation. It is, however, also slightly higher than the P/E multiple Alphabet has averaged over the past decade. Could Alphabet's...
