Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock has been climbing since its late January lows, last seen up 0.6% to trade at $271.69 and pacing for a third-straight pop with help from record iPhone sales. The Big Tech giant broke above a trendline with historically bullish implications last session, and with that breakout solidifying today, it could soon head back toward its Dec. 3 record high of $288.62. The trendline in question is the equity's 50-day moving average. Per Schaeffer's Senior Quantitative Analyst Rocky White, this “crossover” event has happened 16 times during the last thee years, after which Apple stock was higher one month later 75% of the time, averaging an 3.3% pop. From its current perch, a similar move would have the shares trading back above $280. AAPLd144210593i Short-term options traders remain firmly bullish on AAPL. This is per its Schaeffer's put/call open interest ratio (SOIR) that ranks in the 4th percentile of its annual range. When weighing in on the security's next moves, options look like an attractive route. Options traders are pricing in low volatility expectations, per its Schaeffer's Volatility Index (SVI) of 2%, which ranks in the low 8th percentile of readings from the last 12 months.

Don't let short-term news distract from long-term value. Only a few dozen companies have ever broken the $350 billion market cap mark. Now, imagine losing that much value in hours. That's what happened to Microsoft (MSFT 3.10%) on Jan. 29, 2026 after reporting its fiscal second-quarter (ended Dec. 31, 2025) earnings the day before. It's fair to wonder whether this sell-off is a warning sign, a sign of the stock correcting itself, or the result of irrational investors. While that remains to be seen, one thing is sure in my eyes: Microsoft is still one of the better artificial intelligence (AI) stocks you can invest in for the long haul. Why are investors jumping ship? Microsoft's quarterly results were impressive, all things considered. Its revenue grew 17% year over year to $81.3 billion (nearly $1 billion more than estimates), earnings per share (EPS) increased 24% to $4.41 ($0.22 more than estimates), and net income increased 23% to $30.9 billion. Despite Microsoft's impressive performance, there are two main reasons why investors began jumping ship and selling: its capital expenditures (capex), and projected slowdown in Azure (its cloud platform) growth. In the last quarter, Microsoft spent $37.5 billion on capex. For perspective, that's more than Walmart's profit from its past four quarters combined. And while spending a lot isn't bad in itself, investors have seemingly grown impatient with the lack of returns on this heavy spending. Azure also posted an impressive quarter, up 39% year over year, but the focus was on its likely slower growth in the near future.

Mamdani NYC Housing Plan Has Insiders Curious, Skeptical Authored by Petr Svab via The Epoch Times, The new mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, has put forward a plan to make housing more affordable, including the government building more housing, freezing rents, and potentially taking over properties from landlords who fail to fix them up. Affordability is indeed an issue worth addressing, several industry insiders told The Epoch Times. But they weren’t sure how Mamdani could succeed where previous administrations largely hadn’t. “He’s proven to be really skilled at walking a fine line between opposing parties with different priorities and making each party feel like they’re being catered to,” said Devin Lynch, sales manager at Howard Hanna NYC, a real estate brokerage. Lynch pointed to the housing ballot proposals that gave the mayor more power over approving housing projects. Many Mamdani voters opposed the measures, worrying they would strip local communities of a voice in the approval process, Lynch said. “He couldn’t do that because he also courted the union vote, and they all needed the construction and the ‘Yes’ on those ballot proposals for their members. So he’s really threading the needle between these two different opposing goals in his constituency.” There’s also much uncertainty about the specifics of Mamdani’s plan, given that he has just assumed office, said Michelle Griffith, a real estate agent at the New York City-based Douglas Elliman brokerage. “We’re all trying to be as optimistic as possible. But the truth is, he’s been mayor for not even four weeks. So we still don’t know what is going to happen,” she said. “Short term, there’s going to be a rent freeze, so that’s how he’s going to try to soften it for people immediately. And then long term, it’s building more affordable housing.” Rent Freeze There are significant caveats to Mamdani’s proposed rent freeze, according to Lynch. The mayor doesn’t have direct authority to freeze rents city-wi...
