This monster stock has been taking a breather over the last three months. Nvidia (NVDA 0.64%) has been one of the biggest beneficiaries of the ongoing artificial intelligence (AI) race. Its powerful data center graphics processing units, which have incredible market share, help support AI training and inference. This has led to robust demand, which has propelled shares up 1,230% in the past five years (as of Jan. 22). This top AI stock is trading down, off 11% from its peak. That has some investors wondering if the incredible share price runup is petering out. It has others thinking this might be a great time to buy in, as shares are trading at a discount and they will eventually continue their upward climb. Who's right? Should you buy the dip on Nvidia? Nvidia is betting on the AI infrastructure layer OpenAI's ChatGPT, Alphabet's Gemini, Anthropic's Claude, Perplexity, and others get a lot of attention because they are user-facing AI chatbots that have basically set off the AI age. But digging a bit deeper and looking upstream shows that Nvidia is the winner, given that it operates at the AI infrastructure layer. Viewed in this light, the business is a pick-and-shovel investment opportunity. It's impossible not to come away awestruck with Nvidia's financial performance. Revenue increased 62% year over year to $57 billion in Q3 2026 (ended Oct. 26 last year). Analysts expect 51% and 28% jumps in fiscal 2027 and fiscal 2028, respectively, based on consensus estimates. Profits have also been exceptional. In the past three years, Nvidia's net income margin went from 11% to 56%. Nvidia's focus on innovation Innovation remains management's top priority. At CES Las Vegas earlier this month, Nvidia revealed its Rubin computing platform that's supposed to "deliver up to 10x reduction in inference token cost and 4x reduction in number of GPUs" relative to its predecessor Blackwell platform, according to the press release. Rubin is in production right now. And perhaps making ...

Tom Werner/DigitalVision via Getty Images ClearPoint's ( CLPT ) preliminary fourth-quarter results were solid, indicating a broad-based reacceleration in its business. This has been supported by the recent acquisition of IRRAS, which appears set to maintain strong growth in the near term. There is also the PRISM 1.5T system clearance and the launch of ClearPoint's preclinical CRO facility. While the status of uniQure's ( QURE ) AMT-130 remains up in the air, a number of other partner programs continue to progress. I previously suggested that the opening of ClearPoint's CRO facility would be an important contributor to a growth reacceleration. The company's share price is down around 6% since then, which is potentially due to fading optimism regarding the commercialization of AMT-130. I believe that this is shortsighted, though, as the number of partners and the strength of early data provide confidence in the prospects of ClearPoint's drug delivery business. Partner Programs REGENXBIO is awaiting approval for its one-time gene therapy for MPS II. The FDA PDUFA target date for RGX-121 is February 8, 2026 . While this could be another proof point for ClearPoint, MPS II is a rare condition, meaning the volumes involved are likely to be small. Solid Biosciences recently received orphan drug designation for its Friedreich's Ataxia gene therapy (SGT-212). SGT-212 also has Fast Track and Rare Pediatric Disease designations. Treatment involves dual-route administration, including MRI-guided infusion directly into the brain using ClearPoint's system. Dosing of the first participant in the Phase 1b FALCON trial has been completed, and initial data is expected in the first half of 2026. SGT-212 is a long way from commercialization, though, and Friedreich's Ataxia only affects approximately 5,000 people in the US and 15,000 in Europe, limiting the program's importance to ClearPoint. Aspen Neuroscience recently completed dosing of cohort 3 in its Phase 1/2a ASPIRO Trial. This is...
Swathes of London offices have been sold to hotel developers as they look to take advantage of plunging property values and a bounce back in travel demand after the pandemic.

Swathes of London offices have been sold to hotel developers as they look to take advantage of plunging property values and a bounce back in travel demand after the pandemic. Since 2019 almost 4 million square feet (370,000 square meters) of offices in the UK capital have been sold to investors who intend to convert them, enough to fill the city’s Gherkin skyscraper eight times over, according to data compiled by CoStar Group Inc . The bulk of that - 2.7 million square feet - was sold in the last two years. Soaring inflation and higher interest rates following the pandemic upended the city’s office market and caused values to fall. At the same time the return of travel demand after lockdowns helped support investor appetite for hotels. Daily changing room rates — in contrast to the fixed long-term leases typical of offices — also enable hotel owners to immediately pass on higher costs. “It’s unquestionably been a trend which has taken hold over the last 24 months or so,” Felix Rabeneck , director of central London investment at broker Savills Plc said. “People have begun to think about alternative uses where values might be higher.” Shifting office demand following the pandemic and increasingly stringent environmental regulations have rendered swathes of office space in fringe locations obsolete and struggling to find tenants. But office developers were cautious about committing the capital needed to modernize them against a backdrop of uncertain demand and soaring construction costs, as they waited for the long-term impact of increased home working to become clear. That’s paved the way for a string of hotel conversions on the edge of London’s historic financial district. Dominus Real Estate and Cheyne Capital Management last month completed the acquisition of Ibex House in Aldgate, a district on the City of London’s eastern fringe. The venture is seeking planning consent to convert the art deco office building into a 382 room hotel. To the south of the City, Whitbr...

Some income investors might overlook this midstream energy stock. But they shouldn't. High dividend yields don't necessarily imply high risk. I think Energy Transfer LP (ET 0.17%) is an excellent case in point. This master limited partnership (MLP) offers a distribution yield of 7.4%. And that distribution appears to be relatively safe, making Energy Transfer an ultra-high-yield dividend stock that income investors can't – or at least shouldn't – ignore. A solid business Energy Transfer's solid business makes its distribution dependable. The MLP operates more than 140,000 miles of pipeline spanning much of the U.S. Around 90% of its adjusted EBITDA comes from fees, meaning that Energy Transfer's fortunes don't hinge on commodity prices. Roughly 40% of Energy Transfer's adjusted EBITDA is generated by operations focused on natural gas. That's a good thing, because natural gas presents tremendous growth opportunities for the company. In particular, the booming data center market is driving higher demand for natural gas. The artificial intelligence (AI) applications hosted in these data centers require significant amounts of electricity. Natural gas is a top fuel source for powering the plants that generate this electricity. In recent months, Energy Transfer has landed multiple data center deals. For example, the MLP signed agreements with Oracle (ORCL +2.98%) to supply natural gas to three data centers. It also inked an agreement with CloudBurst to provide natural gas to data centers in Central Texas. Unsurprisingly, much of Energy Transfer's growth-related capital expenditures in 2026 will be in expanding its natural gas capabilities. In addition to building more pipelines, the MLP plans to double the capacity of its Bethel gas storage facility in Texas.

Qualcomm Incorporated (QCOM) is trading around $158.25 on 22 January 2026 as of 10:21am UTC, within an intraday range of $153.45–$159.94 on Capital.com’s platform. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. Recent trading comes amid Qualcomm’s increased visibility ahead of its upcoming first-quarter fiscal 2026 earnings release, which the company has scheduled for 4 February 2026 (Qualcomm, 21 January 2026), and continued attention on its on-device AI and automotive platforms showcased at CES 2026 (Computer Weekly, 7 January 2026). Broader US equity conditions also frame sentiment, with the Nasdaq Composite recently showing elevated volatility around large-cap technology names (Yahoo Finance, 21 January 2026). Qualcomm stock forecast 2026–2030: Third-party price targets As of 22 January 2026, third-party Qualcomm stock predictions indicate a wide range of 12-month expectations, with more recent updates clustering in the mid-$180s and aggregate surveys showing averages just below $190. These figures are typically framed as 12-month targets from the publication date rather than specific year-end levels, and they remain subject to revision as earnings guidance and sector conditions evolve. Benzinga (consensus snapshot) Benzinga’s Qualcomm stock review reports that analysts it tracks have a consensus price target of about $191.96 per share, with individual forecasts ranging from $140 to $270 over a 12-month horizon. The piece notes that this wide spread reflects differing views on Qualcomm’s ability to navigate semiconductor cycles and monetise 5G and AI trends amid shifting demand and competitive pressures (Benzinga, 21 December 2025). Anachart (coverage universe snapshot) Stock-research aggregator Anachart, in a Qualcomm update, indicates that 16 analysts then covering the stock had an average price target of roughly $182.01, with published targets spanning from $155 to $225. The service notes that these targets sit above the contemporaneous share...
