An Iranian missile has hit the Israeli town of Dimona, home to a nuclear facility, in what Iran said was retaliation for strikes on its own nuclear site at Natanz. Dimona hosts a facility just outside the main town widely believed to possess the Middle East’s sole nuclear arsenal, although Israel has never admitted to possessing nuclear weapons. Iran’s atomic energy organisation earlier accused the US and Israel of hitting the Natanz enrichment complex, but noted there was “no leakage of radioactive materials reported”. The Israeli army told AFP there had been a “direct missile hit on a building” in Dimona, with Magen David Adom first responders saying their teams had treated 33 people injured at multiple sites, including a 10-year-old boy in serious condition with shrapnel wounds. “There was extensive damage and chaos at the scene,” paramedic Karmel Cohen said. The Israeli military said “interception attempts were carried out” after the missiles were detected. Images shared by Israeli media showed an object hurtling out of the sky at high speed before crashing into the town. Iranian state TV said the attack was a “response” to the earlier strike on Natanz. After that attack, the UN nuclear watchdog chief, Rafael Grossi, repeated a “call for military restraint to avoid any risk of a nuclear accident”. The Natanz facility hosts underground centrifuges to enrich uranium for Iran’s disputed nuclear programme and was already damaged in last year’s June war. Asked about Natanz, the Israeli military said it was “not aware of a strike”. The Israeli military also said Saturday it had struck a facility embedded within a Tehran university “utilised by the Iranian terror regime’s military industries and ballistic missiles array to develop nuclear weapon components and weapons”. Three weeks of heavy US-Israeli bombardment appear to have done little to blunt Iran’s ability to retaliate with missile and drone attacks across the region. The United Arab Emirates said on Saturday it...

Iran Ready To Let Japanese Ships Use Hormuz As Chinese, Indian Tankers Already Allowed Passage While Iran's decision to close the Straits of Hormuz in response to the US-Israeli bombing campaign was understandable, after all it's the biggest point of leverage the IRGC-controlled nation has left (it is certainly more understandable than bombing all of its Gulf neighbors in the process pushing them from being on the fence to being staunchly anti-Iran), there was always a bit of a glitch in Tehran's calculus: as we showed the day the war broke out, the biggest clients of Gulf exporting nations by far are China, India, Korea and Japan, namely Asian countries which - with the exception of Japan - are hardly allies of the US. Therefore, the countries that would be hit the hardest were those Pacific rim nations that would buy millions of barrels of oil daily from Gulf countries before the war, and now find that oil indefinitely blocked behind the Strait. While prices are fungible, the biggest loser from a Hormuz closure in terms of actual physical oil is China which is the main destination of the 13.1mm barrels of oil that passes through the Strait every day https://t.co/FwWVsHiwpZ pic.twitter.com/ozXwXpo2El — zerohedge (@zerohedge) March 1, 2026 Nowhere has this asymmetric impact been more evident than in the price of Asian-basin grades such as Dubai and Oman, which hit a record $170 on Thursday before retracing modestly to $160, while at the same time Europe-heavy Brent has been trading around $110, and WTI crude which primarily feeds the US is trading just below $100. As a result, it's hardly a surprise that while ideologically they may support Iran, Asia's largest Gulf clients are suddenly finding themselves facing crashing stock markets and a brutal stagflation. It's also why while the world's attention has been focused on the escalating daily attacks in the Gulf, which last week crippled global LNG supplies for years - in the process once again hammering Asian supply...

Video footage from the scene showed a large crater gouged into the ground next to piles of rubble and twisted metal.

Advertisement Iranian state television said a missile attack on the town in the Negev desert was a “response” to an earlier strike on its own nuclear site at Natanz. The Israeli army said there was a “direct missile hit on a building” in Dimona and it was reviewing how the impact happened despite air defence interceptors being fired.

This year, I've put nearly $15,000 to work buying three tech stocks to add to my personal portfolio. Let's dig into why I like these three stocks. Advanced Micro Devices My most recent buy has been shares of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD 1.92%). The stock has been on a bit of a roller coaster ride to start the year, and I bought the shares on its recent dip. Most of the attention around AMD has been with regard to its recent graphics processing unit (GPU) partnerships with OpenAI and Meta Platforms. Both companies have made large 6-gigawatt commitments to buy AMD's GPUs, while AMD has given both companies warrants equal to about 10% (each) of its current shares outstanding. On the surface, this seems like a steep price to pay to get these commitments, but for the warrants to vest, they not only come with the delivery of its GPUs, but also certain thresholds AMD's stock has to hit. The final tranche is believed to be at $600, which is about triple AMD's current share price. Meanwhile, the deals also basically require both companies to scale AMD's ROCm software platform within their data centers, which is how the company can break through Nvidia's CUDA vice grip. As such, I look on these deals as favorable growth drivers. However, what gets me most excited about the stock is actually the opportunity it has in data center central processing units (CPUs). With the age of agentic AI upon us, there is going to be a much bigger need for high-performance CPUs to manage the logic and data flow behind AI agents. As such, the GPU-to-CPU ratio in AI data centers could be about to materially shift, which is a catalyst not priced into AMD's stock. This makes it a top AI stock to own.

To some investors, it may come as a shock that Microsoft (MSFT 1.84%) is now the cheapest stock in the "Magnificent Seven" as measured by price-to-earnings ratio. Its earnings multiple of 25 is the lowest valuation since the worst of the bear market in 2022. Even Alphabet and Meta Platforms, which had previously had the lowest valuation in the Magnificent Seven, have gained traction relative to Microsoft. So the stock is cheap, in relative terms. But just because a mega-cap tech stock becomes inexpensive, that does not guarantee a rebound. Knowing that, should investors treat this as a buying opportunity in Microsoft or stay on the sidelines? What happened to Microsoft? Microsoft encountered a perfect storm of challenges. For one, it has a close partnership with OpenAI. Tech investors may recall how the doubts surrounding Oracle's $300 billion partnership with OpenAI put some hurt on Oracle stock. Likewise, around 45% of Microsoft's $625 billion backlog is tied to OpenAI, casting some doubt on a key revenue source. Additionally, AI stocks have sold off in general amid massive spending on capital expenditures (capex) related to AI. To this end, it has spent $49 billion in the first half of fiscal 2026 (ended Dec. 31), putting it on track for about $100 billion in capex during the fiscal year. Microsoft's financials are sound $100 billion sounds like a staggering amount of money to spend. But it should also be noted that Microsoft holds $89 billion in liquidity and generated over $97 billion in free cash flow over the trailing 12 months. That suggests it can afford these very expensive investments. Moreover, Grand View Research forecasts a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for AI at 31% through 2033, taking the industry size to $3.5 trillion if that prediction comes true, so the investments have a good chance of paying off for the company. Furthermore, its financial performance continues to improve. In the first half of fiscal 2026, revenue of $159 billion increased ...

Donald Trump has been condemned as a “vile, disgusting man” and a “sick human being” after gloating over the death of Robert Mueller, a former director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Mueller, a decorated Vietnam war veteran who led a politically explosive investigation into Trump, died on Friday aged 81, triggering a callous reaction from the US president. “Robert Mueller just died,” Trump responded quickly on his Truth Social platform. “Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people!” Even by the president’s own norm-shredding standards, the comment was unusually harsh. There was a chorus of opprobrium from the “Never Trump” movement in his own Republican party. Michael Steele, a former chairman of the Republican National Committee, wrote on X: “@realDonaldTrump you are a vile disgusting man. Petty and pathetic, you are a hypocrite who reeks of weakness and insecurities with no moral core. Regardless of the politics, the American people should be embarrassed and ashamed for ever having entrusted you with leadership.” Rick Wilson, a political strategist and co-founder of the Lincoln Project, described Mueller as a “hero” and warned Trump: “When you die, Americans, and people around the world, will dance in the streets for weeks because you’re a low, degenerate, criminal fraud who left a full stain on the presidency.” Heath Mayo, founder of Principles First, added: “What a sick human being. A permanent disfiguring scar on the dignity of our nation.” Democrats also weighed in to denounce Trump for spitting on Mueller’s grave. Dan Goldman, a congressman from New York, posted that “the President of the United States disgustingly celebrates Mueller’s death simply because he exposed Trump’s efforts to steal the 2016 election. Mueller and Trump represent polar opposites of what a public servant should be.” Adam Schiff, a senator for California, observed: “Every day, this president shows his basic indecency and unfitness for office.” Andy Kim...

In Brief On March 21, 2006, Jack Dorsey posted a simple message: “just setting up my twittr”. That was, of course, the very first post on the site that is still best known as Twitter, even after being renamed X by its new owner Elon Musk (the deal is still being fought over in court). X then became part of Musk’s xAI, which itself has become part of SpaceX. Musk cut the company’s workforce dramatically and spurred new controversies by incorporating xAI’s chatbot Grok, which dubbed itself “MechaHitler” and was used to create widespread sexual deepfakes, including of real women and children. While X retains a strong hold on some user groups, including swaths of the tech industry, it also faces competition from services like Bluesky and Meta’s Threads. One report suggests that Threads recently overtook X in daily mobile users. (All of these primarily text-based services are dwarfed by apps like Instagram and TikTok.) As for Dorsey’s original tweet, the Twitter co-founder later sold it as an NFT for $2.9 million. But its value has reportedly plummeted, with the buyer unable to resell it.

Continue » Is this a buying opportunity? Maybe in a very small dose, but I wouldn't load up here. Strong growth and surging costs Meta's recent Q4 financial results were impressive, showcasing a business that continues to dominate the digital advertising landscape. The company's advertising revenue was $58.1 billion in the quarter -- up 24% from the year-ago quarter. This advertising strength across its core social media platforms helped drive a robust operating margin of 41%, resulting in nearly $25 billion in operating income for the period. While this operating margin is impressive in a vacuum, it's notably down from 48% in the year-ago quarter as the company's costs and expenses surge amid a major investment cycle. Highlighting Meta's recent deleveraging, the company's earnings per share grew at a much slower rate than revenue, rising just 11% year over year. And free cash flow increased -- but also grew more slowly than revenue. The key cash flow figure was about $14.1 billion, up from about $13.2 billion in the year-ago quarter. However, even though costs are weighing on Meta's ea...

"Complete Other Alias": Rep. Luna Drops Clinton-Epstein Bombshell Authored by Steve Watson via modernity.news , Rep. Anna Paulina Luna appeared on Bill Maher’s show and confirmed what the Epstein document dumps have long hinted at: the former president wasn’t just flying on the Lolita Express — he was operating under an entirely different identity in the files. This revelation lands as the House Oversight Committee presses forward with its investigation, following the Justice Department’s release of millions of pages under the Epstein Files Transparency Act signed by President Trump. Lawmakers and victims are still pushing for the remaining 2.5 million documents that remain hidden or heavily redacted, according to recent reporting. Bill Clinton’s connection to Jeffrey Epstein runs deep and documented . The former president flew on Epstein’s private jet multiple times in the early 2000s, often for Clinton Foundation-related trips, and maintained social ties with both Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell long after red flags emerged. He has repeatedly denied any knowledge of Epstein’s crimes or visits to the island. 👀 Rep. Anna Paulina Luna says documents show Bill Clinton had a “COMPLETE OTHER ALIAS” tied to Jeffrey Epstein.

President Trump's trade policies are sending many stocks that were performing well in the wrong direction and exacerbating things for others that were already struggling. So, the time seems ripe for investors to look for bargains. However, not every beaten-down stock is worth investing in -- many look more like value traps than anything else, no matter how low their share prices have fallen. Consider two examples: Tilray (NASDAQ: TLRY) and Novavax (NASDAQ: NVAX). Both companies are trading well below $10 due to issues that predate the current uncertain economic environment, and neither seems particularly attractive for long-term investors, even at current levels. Here's the rundown. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » 1. Tilray Tilray's shares have dropped significantly this year and are worth about 58 cents apiece as of this writing. The company's struggles predate whatever is happening in the current market. Tilray, a leader in the cannabis industry, has reported poor financial results with inconsistent organic revenue growth (much of its sales growth has been from acquisitions) and persistent net losses over the past five years. TLRY Operating Revenue (Quarterly YoY Growth) data by YCharts It's not entirely the company's fault -- pot growers encountered significant regulatory troubles even in Canada, where recreational uses of the substance became legal for adults in 2018. However, the fact that Tilray's poor performance has largely been due to factors beyond its control is a strong argument against buying the stock today, even at current levels. Some hope that there will be more regulatory wins for cannabis companies in the U.S. Tilray's CEO, Irwin Simon, even predicted that the substance would become legal at the federal level in the U.S. in the next four years. Never mind that there is no guarantee of this outcome. Even if it does happen, Tilray would still enc...
