Making your Premier League debut at Manchester City would be a daunting prospect for anyone - even as a referee. But 32-year-old Farai Hallam, once a professional footballer on Stevenage's books, earned widespread praise for his performance during City's 2-0 win over Wolves at Etihad Stadium on Saturday. With the hosts leading 1-0 in the first half, goalscorer Omar Marmoush was convinced the hosts should be awarded a penalty after Wanderers defender Yerson Mosquera appeared to handle the ball inside the area. Hallam was unmoved, waving appeals away, only to then be sent to the pitchside monitor by the video assistant referee (VAR) to check the incident. We all know what that normally means. The City fans were already celebrating. After watching several replays, however, Hallam surprised nearly everyone inside the stadium by choosing to stick with his original decision. "After review, the ball hits the arm of the Wolves player, which is in a natural position so the on-field decision will remain," he announced over the tannoy. Former Premier League assistant referee Darren Cann said it was "without doubt the correct decision". "Hallam, officiating in his first Premier League match, made an excellent and courageous call to stick with his on-field decision of no handball," Cann told BBC Sport. "This was without doubt the correct decision as Yerson Mosquera's arm was in a justifiable position and the ball was played on to his arm from very close range. "A brave and correct decision in law from a highly regarded referee making his Premier League debut."

In Brief The Securities and Exchange Commission has dropped its lawsuit against Gemini, the crypto exchange founded by twins Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss. The Winklevoss twins were donors to Donald Trump’s re-election campaign and also backed his family’s business ventures. In a joint filing on Friday, the SEC and Gemini asked the court to dismiss the lawsuit, which centered on the collapse of an investment product called Gemini Earn, with some investors losing access to their money for 18 months. New York Attorney General Letitia James sued Gemini in 2023 and accused the company of defrauding investors. To justify dismissing the SEC’s case, the new filing points to a 2024 settlement between New York and Gemini, with investors ultimately receiving “one hundred percent of the crypto assets they had loaned […] through the Gemini Earn program.” This appears to be a larger pattern of leniency from the Trump administration towards the crypto industry. The New York Times previously reported that the SEC has either dismissed, paused, or reduced penalties in more than 60 percent of the crypto lawsuits pending when Trump took office last year. Gemini has also filed to go public.

In recent days, Sovereign AI announced it had chosen Accenture and Palantir Technologies to help build and scale next-generation AI data centers across EMEA, while HD Hyundai and Palantir deepened their alliance to roll out Foundry and AIP group-wide in Korea. Together, these deals position Palantir’s software as a core orchestration layer for both industrial operations and sovereign-grade AI infrastructure across multiple regions and sectors. Next, we’ll examine how this expanded HD Hyundai rollout could reshape Palantir’s investment narrative in light of its recent share price moves. We've found 13 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free. What Is Palantir Technologies' Investment Narrative? To own Palantir here, you really have to believe its platforms can become the default operating layer for complex, AI-heavy organizations, and that the company can grow into a valuation that still looks demanding on metrics like price-to-book. The expanded HD Hyundai rollout and the Sovereign AI win both lean into that thesis by anchoring Palantir more firmly in industrial and sovereign AI infrastructure, potentially reinforcing near term catalysts around larger commercial deal sizes and faster adoption of AIP outside the U.S. At the same time, the recent share price softness, despite strong 2025 results and raised guidance, shows how quickly sentiment can swing when expectations are high. These new contracts may support the growth narrative, but they do not remove the core risk that any slowdown versus lofty forecasts could pressure a stock that has already run very far. However, expectations embedded in today’s price could still be higher than many investors realize. Palantir Technologies' share price has been on the slide but might be dropping deeper into value territory. Find out whether it's a bargain at this price.

Key Points Nano Nuclear Energy is developing a portable nuclear reactor. But it lacks regulatory approval and isn't generating revenue. As such, the stock will likely remain volatile in 2026. 10 stocks we like better than Nano Nuclear Energy › Nano Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) is an advanced nuclear company that's developing small, portable nuclear reactors. The names of these reactors sound epic -- Kronos, Zeus, Loki -- and they're small enough, and modular enough, to supply continuous on-site power to data centers, industrial sites, research labs, remote communities, and can be used even for space missions. Recently, however, Nano Nuclear stock has experienced whiplash. Shares had a strong run in 2025, rising more than 115% by early October, before a broader sell-off in nuclear energy stocks erased those gains and left it trailing the broader market by year-end. It ended 2025 about 3.5% in the red, underperforming both the S&P 500 and the VanEck Uranium and Nuclear ETF (NYSEMKT: NLR). 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 » So far in 2026, Nano Nuclear has been surging, currently up roughly 27% on the year. Can this be the year Nano Nuclear beats the market? Let's take a look. Why Nano has been volatile and what's driving the rebound Nano Nuclear's core ambition is to build small reactors that can be transported anywhere, especially where the grid cannot reliably meet demands. The company also plans to build a uranium fuel chain. If it succeeds, it will become a one-stop-shop for nuclear energy. But therein lies the kicker: if it succeeds. Nano Nuclear is very much in its early stages of development. It generates zero revenue, and its reactor designs still need approval from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission before commercial deployment is even possible. Even in the most optimistic scenario, in which it gets licensing for commercialization without major hiccups, it could...

Even before the first set and first hour of his match elapsed, Tomas Machac had asked the umpire for the tournament doctor, trainer and pickle juice, the drink du jour for tackling cramps. Those preventive measures taken in the intense early stages of his third-round tussle with Lorenzo Musetti proved to be sensible, for the pair would spend a brutal four hours, 25 minutes on court. Four hours of that took place inside an open John Cain Arena, a furnace in suffocating heat. “We knew today was going to be really, really hot,” Musetti said. “I think I managed well to finish the match without cramping.” Those early stages of Musetti’s five-set win over Machac set the tone for an unusual day at the Australian Open as the heat arrived in force, inserting itself into the outcome of matches and wreaking havoc on the schedule. A cursory glimpse around the grounds on Saturday underscored what was to come. Anticipation of the heat convinced the organisers to start play half an hour earlier than usual at 10.30am. The first sight was St John Ambulance workers standing around. Stations offering free SPF50+ sunscreen were dotted across the grounds. From the start of play, long lines of spectators waited by the many water dispensers to refill their bottles. The Australian Open was well prepared for 39C, but the most pertinent question was which players would not be so ready. Jessica Pegula, who reported for the morning shift, beat the worst of the heat by reaching the fourth round with an easy 6-3, 6-2 win over Oksana Selekhmeteva. She stressed the importance of using ice towels and hydration. “The fact we haven’t been playing that much in the hot temperatures is what gets people. You have no tolerance to it and then it comes out of nowhere. We’re used to it happening here, but it’s hard to prepare for that.” View image in fullscreen Karen Khachanov wraps an ice towel around his neck during a break against Luciano Darderi.

Bank of France Governor Francois Villeroy de Galhau said the government and parliament could have done more to pare the deficit in a budget compromise adopted on Friday. Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu survived no-confidence votes on Friday on the revenue chapter of a finance bill that foresees cutting the gap to 5% of economic output in 2026, while the government had initially aimed for 4.7%. The premier made a series of concessions — principally to center-left Socialists — to preserve funding for welfare and cap taxes for households. Villeroy had previously warned that anything above 5% would put France in a “danger zone” on financial markets. “Having a budget is progress,” Villeroy said in an interview with Ouest France newspaper published on Saturday. “Now, it will indeed be necessary to respect this ceiling, and I would have liked to see a stronger reduction in the deficit.” Investors have welcomed France’s recent steps toward finally adopting a budget after months of political uncertainty and following repeated government collapses since snap elections in 2024. On Friday, the yield premium of the country’s 10-year debt over safer German peers shrunk to below 59 basis points — the lowest since June 2024, when President Emmanuel Macron called the legislative elections. Villeroy also slammed what he called “gerontocratic” choices in the social security bill, including indexing pensions for even the wealthiest retirees. “I’m sorry to observe that the social budget chose seniors over young people,” he said. He reiterated his call for France to do more to curtail spending, rather than relying on tax increases to plug holes in its public finances because of a lack of political agreement. “Let’s try to be pragmatic — different political parties should try to find compromises instead of throwing red lines in each other’s faces,” Villeroy said.

This venerable money transmitter may not be the financial dinosaur many investors make it out to be. Admittedly, shares in Western Union (WU +1.01%) have been a bit of a yield trap over the past five years or so. During this time frame, the money transmitter has continued to make regular quarterly dividend payments of $0.235 per share. However, a steady decline in Western Union's stock price has outweighed these payouts. Over the past five years, total returns have come in at loss of 40%, versus a gain of 92% for the S&P 500. But while shares have failed to be profitable for buy-and-hold dividend investors, don't assume this poor performance will persist. Expand NYSE : WU Western Union Today's Change ( 1.01 %) $ 0.10 Current Price $ 9.51 Key Data Points Market Cap $3.0B Day's Range $ 9.38 - $ 9.60 52wk Range $ 7.85 - $ 11.95 Volume 205K Avg Vol 8.9M Gross Margin 33.19 % Dividend Yield 9.91 % In fact, there are three key reasons why Western Union can, over the next three years, shake off its yield trap reputation and experience a significant leap higher. 1. Western Union remains profitable, despite disruption fears With so many online-based cross-border remittance apps and platforms currently in operation, there is the assumption that Western Union, still largely focused on its brick-and-mortar locations, faces the risk of permanent "disruption" from these fintech-based competitors. However, while online competition has contributed to Western Union's steady decline, the company has remained profitable. The company has consistently reported positive generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) earnings. Furthermore, earnings have been more than sufficient to cover the stock's quarterly cash dividend. The stock's dividend payout ratio is currently around 55%. Currently, this dividend gives the stock a forward dividend yield of 10.3%. While I wouldn't count on any dividend growth anytime soon, this high payout is likely sustainable, especially given Western Union's v...

Expense-conscious and risk-averse investors may find key differences in how these gold ETFs manage costs and volatility. SPDR Gold MiniShares Trust (GLDM +1.33%) features significantly lower expenses and a shallower historical drawdown than iShares Gold Trust (IAU +1.33%), while both track the price of gold with similar recent returns. Both IAU and GLDM are designed to give investors exposure to the price of gold bullion, providing a way to participate in gold’s performance without physical storage hassles. This comparison looks at their costs, historical performance, risk, and structure to help clarify where each fund fits in a gold allocation. Snapshot (Cost & Size) Metric IAU GLDM Issuer IShares SPDR Expense ratio 0.25% 0.10% 1-yr return (as of 2026-01-09) 67.2% 66.2% Beta 0.09 0.09 AUM $72.9 billion $28.0 billion Beta measures price volatility relative to the S&P 500; beta is calculated from five-year weekly returns. The 1-yr return represents total return over the trailing 12 months. GLDM stands out as the more affordable option on expenses, with a 0.10% annual fee compared to IAU’s 0.25%. Yield is not a consideration for these funds, as neither pays a dividend. Performance & Risk Comparison Metric IAU GLDM Max drawdown (5 y) -20.92% -20.92% Growth of $1,000 over 5 years $2,414 $2,427 What's Inside GLDM is a pure gold exposure vehicle, with 100% of its portfolio aligned to real estate—here reflecting gold holdings rather than traditional property assets. The fund has been around for 7.5 years, offering direct access to gold prices with no sector or issuer quirks, and does not hold equities or alternative assets. The specific holdings and sector blurb mirror IAU, with both funds designed to track gold’s spot price as closely as possible. IAU follows the same approach, offering investors exposure to the price movements of gold bullion. There is no sector tilt or equity exposure, and the holdings structure is nearly identical to GLDM, making both funds straightfor...

DHS Says 5-Year-Old Was "Abandoned" By Parents During ICE Operation In Minnesota Authored by Aldgra Fredly via The Epoch Times, The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Jan. 23 refuted reports that ICE agents detained a 5-year-old boy in Minnesota, saying the child was abandoned by his parents during an immigration enforcement operation. Columbia Heights Public School District had previously said that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken into custody along with his father while in their driveway on Jan. 20. School officials said an ICE agent asked the child to knock on the door to see if there was anyone inside. DHS on Friday provided details on the situation and said the primary concern of its officers was the child’s safety and welfare. “ICE did NOT target, arrest a child or use a child as ‘bait.’ ICE law enforcement officers were the only people primarily concerned with the welfare of this child,” DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin said on X. McLaughlin said federal agents conducted a targeted operation to arrest the child’s father, identified as Adrian Alexander Conejo Arias, an illegal immigrant from Ecuador, but he fled and abandoned his child. For safety reasons, one ICE agent remained with the child while other officers apprehended Conejo Arias, according to McLaughlin. McLaughlin added that officers had tried to ask the “alleged mother,” who was inside the house, to take custody of the child and assured her she would not be taken into custody, but she refused. “During this situation, agitators swarmed the scene and began yelling and blowing horns, scaring the child,” McLaughlin said. “Following the mother’s abandonment of the child, officers abided by the father’s wishes to keep the child with him and even got the child McDonald’s and played his favorite music. Father and son are together at Dilley,” she added. According to McLaughlin, parents are asked if they want to be removed with their children, or ICE will arrange for the children to be placed wi...

These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Both the Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF (NASDAQ:BND) and Fidelity Total Bond ETF (NYSEMKT:FBND) aim to provide core fixed-income exposure for investors seeking regular income and a buffer against stock market volatility. This comparison explores the opportunities and risks associated with these bond ETFs.

However, FBND currently offers a higher dividend yield, which may appeal to income-focused investors.

However, the ETF also invests up to 20% of its assets in lower-quality debt securities, such as BBB-rated debt, which are riskier but can offer a higher yield. BND has been around for 7 years longer; thus, its holdings are substantially higher at 15,000. It has a higher concentration of AAA stocks at 72.45%.

Nano Nuclear Energy is up double digits in 2026. Can it sustain the momentum and beat the market? Nano Nuclear Energy (NNE 3.77%) is an advanced nuclear company that's developing small, portable nuclear reactors. The names of these reactors sound epic -- Kronos, Zeus, Loki -- and they're small enough, and modular enough, to supply continuous on-site power to data centers, industrial sites, research labs, remote communities, and can be used even for space missions. Recently, however, Nano Nuclear stock has experienced whiplash. Shares had a strong run in 2025, rising more than 115% by early October, before a broader sell-off in nuclear energy stocks erased those gains and left it trailing the broader market by year-end. It ended 2025 about 3.5% in the red, underperforming both the S&P 500 and the VanEck Uranium and Nuclear ETF (NLR 0.09%). So far in 2026, Nano Nuclear has been surging, currently up roughly 27% on the year. Can this be the year Nano Nuclear beats the market? Let's take a look. Why Nano has been volatile and what's driving the rebound Nano Nuclear's core ambition is to build small reactors that can be transported anywhere, especially where the grid cannot reliably meet demands. The company also plans to build a uranium fuel chain. If it succeeds, it will become a one-stop-shop for nuclear energy. But therein lies the kicker: if it succeeds. Nano Nuclear is very much in its early stages of development. It generates zero revenue, and its reactor designs still need approval from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission before commercial deployment is even possible. Even in the most optimistic scenario, in which it gets licensing for commercialization without major hiccups, it could be several years before Nano Nuclear generates meaningful revenue. That reality largely explains the stock's volatility. A lack of both revenue and a deployable reactor means Nano Nuclear stock is driven primarily by narrative -- in this case surging electricity demands from AI data c...

The memory crisis has already forced several PC and laptop manufacturers to adjust their retail pricing since the beginning of the year. However, a new report from China Times suggests that major Taiwanese graphics card manufacturers will increase prices for AMD and Nvidia RTX 50 series cards. According to the report, MSI has already announced the second round of price revisions for the Nvidia RTX 50 series, while Asus and Gigabyte could announce new pricing by the end of the month. Moreover, this could mark the “beginning of a price increase cycle for AMD and Nvidia graphics cards,” reads the report translated from Chinese (Traditional). Expect to see GPU prices rise quietly The price increase for DDR6 and DDR7 VRAM modules (used in graphics cards) has compelled AMD and Nvidia to raise their supply or wholesale prices by 10-15% (depending on the model). Recommended Videos Now, it is up to the partner manufacturer to decide whether they can absorb the higher cost or pass it along to customers through higher retail prices. Usually, retail partners like Asus, Gigabyte, and MSI don’t officially announce new MSRPs via press releases. Instead, one has to spot price changes in retail listings, fewer base models, the abundance of premium SKUs (with higher price tags), or the silent delisting of older-priced inventory. The pattern becomes apparent once you start comparing the recent listing with those from a few weeks (or months) ago. The report notes that the prices of the AMD RX 9000 series GPUs have increased by 10-18% in markets such as Europe and China. Similarly, the price revision ranges from 15 to 20% for Nvidia RTX 50 series models with 16GB of higher VRAM. Nvidia has an interesting strategy for the situation. The company is reportedly prioritizing RTX 50-series cards (which make the most commercial sense), namely the 8GB VRAM models like the RTX 5060 and 5060 Ti. Why? Because they’re cheaper to make, easier to sell, and far less likely to attract a hefty price rev...

Key Points Sirius XM has faced intense competition ever since internet-enabled streaming platforms entered the market. Nike is in the middle of a turnaround, but it still has the strongest brand in the industry. The best stock to buy is not the one that's on the wrong side of tech innovation. 10 stocks we like better than Sirius XM › Sirius XM (NASDAQ: SIRI) might be receiving a lot of attention simply because it's a top holding in Berkshire Hathaway's massive public equities portfolio. The satellite radio operator has some favorable qualities, but there are reasons to be bearish. Nike (NYSE: NKE) owns one of the world's most recognizable brands. It's a leader in the sportswear market. However, the management team there is in the middle of a difficult turnaround. 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 » Between these two consumer stocks, which presents the better buying opportunity today? Sirius XM is cheap, but growth is hard to come by Sirius XM should drive interest from value investors. That's because the stock is cheap, trading at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 6.7. That low valuation isn't surprising when you consider the stock price has tanked 66% in the past five years (as of Jan. 21). The market isn't pleased with Sirius XM's lack of growth. The company reported a year-over-year decline in revenue in the third quarter 2025, propelled by a paid subscriber base that keeps shrinking. It doesn't help that consumers flock to popular streaming services offered by major technology firms. There are reasons to be optimistic. Sirius XM's business model leans heavily toward recurring subscription sales, as opposed to ad revenue that can be cyclical. Its free cash flow is projected to grow by 22% between 2025 and 2027. And it pays a sizable dividend yield of 5.36%. Nike's powerful brand gives it a key advantage in a competitive industry In recent years, Nike has struggle...

Manchester City have a first Premier League win in four games and Wolves a first defeat after going five unbeaten in all competitions following a fixture in which the referee, Farai Hallam, on top-flight debut, dared to stick with his decision not to award a penalty despite being sent for a pitchside review by the video assistant referee. That was for a Yerson Mosquera handball and infuriated Pep Guardiola, though after their dire recent form a first three points since 27 December is what matters. Wolves remain bottom but Rob Edwards is definitely turning his team around, their second-half display sparked by the manager’s changes at the break. It is tempting to wonder if Wolves would be a yawning 14 points from safety if he had begun the campaign in charge, which augurs rosily for the club when they are surely relegated. First-half goals from Omar Marmoush and the excellent Antoine Semenyo sealed the win and with Marc Guéhi helping City to a clean sheet on debut, Guardiola will be content. Pre-kick-off the news was the manager’s dropping of Erling Haaland, for a first time due to form, and Phil Foden, the playmaker having started the last 19 league games. Haaland had started all 22 league games this term but had not scored from open play in his last seven outings. He and Foden were particularly disappointing in the Manchester United and Bodo/Glimt defeats. So, too, was Rodri but perhaps because his understudy Nico González remained injured he lined up with Marmoush and Bernardo Silva, Haaland and Foden’s respective replacements, amid five changes from the loss in the Arctic Circle. Max Alleyne, Rico Lewis and Rayan Aït-Nouri were also demoted, as in came Guéhi at centre-backand Matheus Nunes at right-back, with Semenyo reinstated after not being eligible in the Champions League. City’s opener came when Nunes whipped the ball in from the right and Marmoush’s dart allowed him to stab home for a first league strike since his last league start on 31 August. In their unb...
