Bess Adler | Bloomberg | Getty Images For the close to half-a-million workers at FedEx , a major AI journey is underway. The logistics giant is in the midst of a widespread AI literacy initiative that it says will make employees more knowledgeable, efficient and promotion-ready. Launched in early December in partnership with tech consulting firm Accenture , the enterprise-wide education program is also meant to spark innovation from employees at all levels. FedEx and its competitors in the shipping sector face many business constraints, from tariffs and other policy changes to cost-cutting initiatives that resulted in recent FedEx plant closures and layoffs in places from Kansas to France . Rival UPS recently announced 30,000 layoffs to add to the 48,000 it conducted in 2025. FedEx leadership is keen on adapting to this new world with emerging technology at the forefront, and its recent earnings, including its latest report this week, have met with approval from investors, with shares up close to 50% over the past year. "The more we invest in our talent being on the leading aspect of that learning journey, the better off they will be, the better off we will be, and the better off the broader industry is going to be," said Vishal Talwar, executive vice president and chief data and information officer at FedEx who also runs the company's data logistics solution Dataworks. According to the company's most recent annual report , it has 440,000 workers globally. FedEx continues to introduce new AI capabilities from every end of the organization, like advanced digital tracking and returns capabilities for shippers, announced in early February. The AI learning initiative at FedEx includes personalized, role-based training for employees designed to evolve as the technology does. "This is a living curriculum...

In a typical day, 32% of American adults consume fast food, according to a survey from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Perhaps it's no surprise that quick-serve restaurants are a big-dollar industry. Although the fast-food industry is highly competitive, companies that can stand out through innovation, a compelling value proposition, and out-of-the-box thinking can reap the rewards of this high-ceiling addressable market.

Iran's Longest-Range Missile Strike Fails On Diego Garcia, As Natanz Nuclear Facility Bombed Summary Natanz nuclear site attacked: Iran says "no nuclear radiation" detected, even as attacks on core sites like Isfahan nuclear facilities signal clear escalation despite earlier Trump signals of maybe "winding down." War expands with furthest ever Iranian missile launch: Iran fires missiles at Diego Garcia in a failed but unprecedented long-range strike. US claims momentum, hits hardened targets, Hormuz softening ops : CENTCOM says Iran has lost “significant combat capability” after 8,000+ strikes, and bunker-busting attacks on coastal facilities tied to control of the Strait of Hormuz. Kharg invasion risk rising: US still weighing a high-risk seizure of Kharg Island as more US warships and Marines surge to the region, raising odds of boots-on-the-ground escalation. * * * Natanz Nuclear Site Suffers Direct Attack - No Radiation Leakage President Trump's late in the day Friday comments proclaiming "I think we've won" suggested he might be readying the announcement of an offramp or at least de-escalation, but that speculation has proven premature as things definitely escalated overnight. For apparently the second time of Operation Epic Fury, Iran's flagship enrichment site at Natanz nuclear facility has come under attack. Iran's nuclear agency confirmed the strike but is keeping details deliberately vague, saying nothing about how it was carried out or what weapons were used. What it did emphasize, however, is that "no nuclear radiation" was released . via AFP Natanz - alongside the Isfahan nuclear facilities - sits at the core of Tehran’s nuclear program, long viewed as a prime target in the US-Israel campaign to cripple Iran's ability to produce an atomic bomb - though it remains that even Iran's current wartime leadership is saying it has no intent to produce a nuclear weapon.

The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has escalated an investigation into problems with Tesla's (TSLA 3.33%) Full Self-Driving (FSD) driver-assist system, the agency said in a filing on Thursday. NHTSA is investigating possible safety defects that may make FSD dangerous to use in fog, heavy rain, glaring sun, or other "reduced roadway visibility conditions," it said. The investigation covers 3.2 million Teslas built since 2016. To be clear, this is still an investigation. While NHTSA has the power to order Tesla to recall and repair vehicles found to be defective, it's still a step away from doing that. But if the agency finds that FSD has safety defects, and if those defects can't be repaired via an over-the-air software update, this could get expensive for Tesla in more ways than one. What NHTSA said about its investigation into Tesla's FSD Unlike most advanced driver-assist systems, which use a combination of cameras, radar, and (sometimes) lidar, FSD relies entirely on cameras to "see" and understand what's happening around the car. Obviously, things like fog, glare, and heavy rain can degrade the ability of those cameras to give the system the information it needs to operate the car safely. Because of that, FSD has a "degradation detection system," which is supposed to warn the driver and disengage FSD when it can't see well enough to operate safely. NHTSA has been investigating that system since last year. But this week, it said it has now opened an "Engineering Analysis" to determine whether the degradation detection system is working as it should. That puts the investigation a big step closer to a recall. The agency said on Thursday that its investigators have found that, in nine incidents they've studied, "the [degradation detection] system did not detect common roadway conditions that impaired camera visibility and/or provide alerts when camera performance had deteriorated until immediately before the crash occurred." In one of th...

Walmart As the technological and digital landscape has transformed American retail, there have been some areas of life that have remained unchanged. The grocery store aisle, for instance, looks largely the same as it did 50 years ago. Sure, price stickers on the product have been replaced by bar codes, but otherwise the aisle looks largely the same. But the biggest change since the bar code is hitting in the shelf space that matters most to the pocketbook. Walmart is currently rolling out digital price tags to replace the old paper ones — the plan is to roll them out in all stores across the U.S. by the end of the year. Walmart isn't alone. Grocery giant Kroger has also begun experimenting with the technology. The speed of digital tags offers stores the promise of extra efficiency in an age of supply chain shocks and sticky inflation, but it is also drawing some concerns from lawmakers about surge pricing. Amanda Bailey, a team leader in electronics who works at a Walmart in West Chester, Ohio, estimates that the digital shelf labels — known as DSLs — have cut the time she used to spend on pricing duties by 75 percent, time that has freed her up to help customers. She also said the DSLs are a game-changer because Walmart's Spark delivery drivers looking for an item will see a flashing DSL so they can more easily find the product. Bailey acknowledged that with any change, consumers may be wary, but she waved aside fears of surge pricing. "They are not used to seeing digital tags — they think prices are being raised, but what they are really doing is eliminating processes," Bailey said. Scott Benedict, a retail consultant and former executive at Sam's Club and Walmart, said the concerns of customers are understandable but probably overstated. "When a retailer installs technology that allows prices to change in minutes, shoppers will of course wonder how it might be used," Benedict said. But in grocery, he said, trust is fragile because shoppers track prices week after...

KanawatTH/iStock via Getty Images AI server maker Super Micro Computer ( SMCI ), which has had its fair share of self-created problems in the last few years as the company missed important reporting deadlines and at some point was even at risk of getting delisted from the NASDAQ, hit another major roadblock last week. On Friday, it was reported that the U.S. Department of Justice indicted three individuals tied to SMCI, including co-founder Yih-Shyan Liaw,for allegedly smuggling $2.5B worth of restricted Nvidia GPUs to China, using Southeast Asian shell companies. The report sent shares down a massive 33% on Friday and caused SMCI to close at its lowest price since late 2023. Data by YCharts Previous rating In my last work on Super Micro -- Strong Growth Setup As Industry CapEx Soars -- I highlighted that the company benefited from a significant expansion in the total addressable market as hyperscalers shifted large percentages of their CapEx budgets to the data center industry. While the current situation at SMCI creates a lot of uncertainty, there is also an opportunity here to make money, in my opinion, as the server maker is still doing well in its core business and enjoying significant top line growth. Current situation at SMCI and valuation impact Last week, the Department of Justice announced that it indicted three individuals, including Super Micro co-founder and board member Yih-Shyan Liaw, for a massive $2.5B smuggling operation that could negatively impact SMCI’s business in the short term. According to the indictment, Super Micro insiders participated in a smuggling operation to sell Nvidia ( NVDA ) Blackwell (B200) and Hopper (H200) GPUs through shell companies to Chinese entities that are prohibited from receiving high-performing AI technologies for national security reasons.While the company itself was not named as a defendant in this specific indictment from the Department of Justice. A key concern for investors right now is whether Nvidia will conti...

【葵涌警員開槍案】 葵涌凌晨發生警員開槍事件，一名持刀男子遭三名警員開五槍，擊中右胸及右大腿，昏迷送院。警方初步懷疑他精神有問題，仍待索取其病歷。 事發後，大批警員到青山公路蒐證，並拉起封鎖線。地上有鐵通及懷疑利刀，警方先在凌晨約12時半接報，指有持刀男子在荃灣港鐵站一帶徘徊，警員到場後無發現。半小時後警方再接獲駕駛人士報案，指該男子在青山公路葵涌段，近華員邨一帶，持刀向私家車揮舞。 新界南衝鋒隊趕到現場，該男子從草叢衝出，當時手持一把20寸長鋸齒刀，及一支一米長鐵通。警員口頭警告無效，用胡椒噴霧制服不果，三名警察先後向他開了合共五槍。 新界南總區刑事總部高級警司姚永勤說：「利用身上的武器，衝向我們的同事，並大叫『斬死你』。我相信同事在沒有其他選擇情況下，亦給予相當充足警告下，才作這艱難決定，當然現階段我們不能指哪槍中、哪槍不中，但當最後兩槍時，亦能制服這名疑兇時，我們已馬上停止相關武力。」 受傷的43歲男子，右胸及右大腿中槍，送往瑪嘉烈醫院搶救。警方指疑犯任職地盤工人、無案底，初步懷疑他精神有問題，仍正調查犯案動機。 姚永勤指出：「見到這名男士穿裙，亦喃喃自語、自己說話，前後踱步，一些比較不太正常的行為。我們暫時未能取得相關病歷，不過從多位報案人士，從我們警務人員觀察、多次警告，亦看到向我們揮舞武器，向不同道路使用者揮刀等，我們懷疑他精神有問題。」 大批警員及探員早上在案發現場，地毯式搜索彈頭。在附近山坡搜尋，事發現場最近的民居，是青山公路旁，在山上的華員邨，早上有不少警員到場調查。 有居民就指凌晨聽到槍聲。 何女士稱：「一時左右聽到兩下槍聲，之前有些嘈雜聲。雖然靜、但治安不錯，這些也屬個別事件。」 有居民指會減少夜晚外出，擔心再有同類事件。 【紅磡金條盜竊案五人被捕】 昨日紅磡金條盜竊案，四男一女被捕。警方起回全部，總值約9,300萬元金條。警方仍在調查案件，包括是否涉及欠債及金錢糾紛。 警方起回的73條金條，每條重1公斤，標明是999.9「千足金」，約值9,300萬元。案件在紅磡半島廣場，一間樓上的黃金交易公司發生。 周五下午約三時，一名男買家相約女職員在上址交收金條。突然兩男一女進入單位，並向女職員稱，公司負責人欠下巨債，之後連同男買家，將金條放入行李箱後離開，與單位外一名負責把風的同夥，分別登上兩輛私家車逃走，女職員隨即通知東主並報案。 西九龍總區重案組第...

【美國有條件放寬伊朗石油制裁】 美國宣布有條件放寬對伊朗石油的制裁，為期30日，預計可以為全球市場，提供約一億四千萬桶石油，只夠全球一天半的消耗。伊朗指目前沒有剩餘原油，滯留在海上或供應國際市場。 中東戰事令霍爾木茲海峽航運受阻，影響能源供應。美國特朗普政府周五批准一項臨時許可，允許已經裝船、滯留在運油輪的伊朗原油和石油產品交付和銷售，為期30日。美國能源署預計，可以為全球市場提供約一億四千萬桶石油，只夠全球一天半的消耗。 美國財長貝森特在社交平台發文稱，措施是度身訂造的短期授權，只包括已經運輸中的石油，不包括新購買或生產的石油。他指措施有助於緩解伊朗戰事開始以來，全球的能源供應壓力。 美國早前已經放寬對俄羅斯石油的制裁，豁免各國購買，3月12日前已經裝載在船上的俄羅斯石油30天。但伊朗石油部回應指，現在伊朗沒有剩餘的原油滯留在海上，或供應給國際市場，指貝森特的聲明只是為了給買家希望。 美國總統特朗普重申，美國不需要霍爾木茲海峽，認為應該由歐洲、中國、日本、南韓等海峽使用國守衛。在特朗普要求包括日本在內的多國，協助在霍爾木茲海峽護航之際，日本共同社報道，伊朗外長阿拉格齊表示，德黑蘭當局已經準備好，讓日本相關船隻通過霍爾木茲海峽。 日本超過九成半的進口石油來自中東，當中九成需要通過霍爾木茲海峽運輸，日本等多國早前已經動用了戰略石油儲備。 【伊朗核設施遇襲】 美國和以色列據報襲擊伊朗的核設施，暫時未發生泄漏。美國《華爾街日報》報道，伊朗向印度洋中部的美軍基地發射導彈，未有擊中目標，但意味伊朗軍力的影響遠遠超出中東地區。 美國、以色列和伊朗戰事持續三星期，伊朗周六打擊超過55處以色列軍事設施，及美軍在中東基地。 《華爾街日報》報道，伊朗向約四千公里以外，位於印度洋中部，「美英聯合軍事基地」迪戈加西亞基地，發射了兩枚中程彈道導彈，未有擊中目標，是戰事開始以來，伊朗首次用中程彈道導彈，但報道沒有說明事件何時發生。 美國總統特朗普周五出發去佛羅里達州前見記者，認為美以對伊朗的戰事已取得勝利。 美國總統特朗普說：「我認為我們贏了，我們摧毀了他們(伊朗)海軍和空軍，摧毀了他們防空炮，摧毀了一切。從軍事角度看，他們只是堵塞海峽，但從軍事角度來看，他們已經失敗。」 特朗普在社交平台的帖文就指，美國已經很接近實現目標，正考慮降級在伊朗的軍事行動。但有傳媒引述美國官員報道，美軍正向中東地區...

Gary Yeowell/DigitalVision via Getty Images By BeiChen Lin, CFA, CPA, Director, Head of Canadian Strategy Energy volatility persists Geopolitical developments in the Middle East drove market attention this week, with reports of energy infrastructure being targeted leading to sharp moves in oil and gas prices. At one point, Brent crude rose to as high as $119 per barrel before retracing some of those gains. Natural gas prices also moved higher. Energy remains the primary channel through which this conflict is affecting markets. Our base case is that the conflict will be relatively short-lived, suggesting the energy price shock should also prove temporary. However, a more prolonged shock would have broader implications for global growth. While the U.S. is now a net energy exporter and more insulated than many non-U.S. regions, sustained higher energy prices would still weigh on the global backdrop. This creates a more nuanced picture for equity markets. Coming into the year, non-U.S. equities appeared supported by more attractive valuations and improving fundamentals . Whether that trend resumes will depend in part on how long current tensions persist. Given the uncertainty, we believe investors are best served by remaining close to their strategic asset allocation. Our current U.S. recession probability remains at 20%, though that could rise if energy prices stay elevated. Central banks remain on hold Central banks were in focus this week, with most opting to leave policy rates unchanged as they assess the evolving outlook. The Federal Reserve, Bank of Canada, European Central Bank, Bank of England and Bank of Japan all held rates steady. The Reserve Bank of Australia was a notable exception, raising rates by 25 basis points in a split decision. Market expectations for further rate hikes in Australia — and to some extent Canada — appear somewhat aggressive in our view, particularly given signs that some inflation pressures may prove temporary and growth conditions re...

A University of Alabama student who was found dead in Barcelona after going missing while vacationing evidently fell into the sea on accident in view of surveillance cameras – and an autopsy revealed injuries on his body that were consistent with having repeatedly struck a breakwater’s rocks. Such details about James “Jimmy” Gracey surfaced in the Spanish media as a spokesperson for police in Barcelona told the Associated Press that “all signs point” to the 20-year-old’s death as having been an accident. Gracey was last seen outside the Shoko nightclub at about 3am on Tuesday. The native of suburban Chicago raised alarm when he did not return to a short-term rental where he was staying with friends who accompanied him on their spring break to the Catalan region’s capital. And, in a development that generated international news headlines, his corpse ultimately was recovered Thursday afternoon in 13ft deep waters off a beach near the Shoko club. Spain’s El País newspaper, citing police sources, reported on Friday that local surveillance cameras captured video of Gracey walking by himself toward a dock and falling into the water “without third-party involvement”. El Periódico, another outlet, added on Friday that a preliminary autopsy report filed in court in Barcelona “rules out foul play and supports the police hypothesis that [Gracey] accidentally fell into the sea and drowned”. Furthermore, the autopsy report documented “several injuries consistent with hitting the rocks of a breakwater”, according to Barcelona-based El Periódico, which also wrote that toxicology test results were pending. The outlets’ reports contained details about the two-day search for Gracey. At one point, El País reported, Barcelona police found Gracey’s cellphone in the possession of a thief known to officers.

Key Points Early retirement could backfire if you don't have ample savings. It's not a good idea to bank on risky investments. Remember that you'll need to pay for health insurance, which could get expensive. The $23,760 Social Security bonus most retirees completely overlook › It's easy to see the appeal of early retirement. Instead of showing up to work every morning exhausted and annoyed after battling traffic, you could instead spend your days sleeping in, pursuing hobbies, and not having to log in to meetings. But while retiring early may be something you want to do, that doesn't mean it's a good idea. Here are a few signs that it could, in fact, end up being a total disaster. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » 1. You have decent savings, but not a whole lot There's no single savings amount that guarantees you'll have enough money to support yourself in retirement. This applies whether you're retiring early, late, or on time. But if you're retiring early, your money might need to last for more than 30 years. And remember, the earliest you can claim Social Security is 62. If you retire at 54, that means you'll have eight years where your portfolio will have to do all of the heavy lifting. Before you retire, take a close look at your savings and make sure you've really built a robust enough nest egg for an early workforce exit. A $1 million IRA may be just fine if you're retiring at 65. At 55, it may fall short. 2. You're banking on risky investments to sustain a larger withdrawal rate It's important to keep your retirement savings invested so that money continues to generate returns. The stronger your returns are, the easier it becomes to beat inflation and maintain your buying power without a job. But if you're counting on risky investments to generate returns and allow for a com...

Key Points International Business Machines is a gigantic tech company with an over 100-year history. It has proven adept at providing its business customers with the services they need while also investing in the tech of the future. 10 stocks we like better than International Business Machines › International Business Machines (NYSE: IBM) stock surged back to life over the last three years, more than doubling in value. That remains true despite a material pullback in 2026 as investors worry about the impact that artificial intelligence (AI) will have on its business. Here's why now could still be a good time to buy IBM if you are a long-term investor. International Business Machines changes with the times The main reason to buy IBM now, after a recent drawdown, is the technology giant's quantum computing business. While AI is the darling of Wall Street today, quantum is waiting in the wings to join, if not take over, the spotlight. AI uses massive amounts of computer power, and quantum has the potential to vastly increase the amount of computing power available. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » However, the reason to buy IBM stock isn't directly related to quantum computing. That's really a sign of a much bigger story. To understand IBM, you really need to go back about 100 years, to the company's founding. When IBM started out, it made things like scales. That's a far cry from quantum computing, which is the important takeaway. IBM didn't simply spring into existence; it evolved and changed over time into the business it is today. The company has proven, many times over, that it can keep pace with the technology that its largely business customers need and want. IBM has a unique culture Not many companies manage to survive as long as IBM has. It requires a specific culture that liv...

格隆汇3月21日｜据AXIOS，周五诺鲁孜节期间，美国中央情报局、摩萨德和世界各地的其他情报机构都在密切关注伊朗新任最高领袖穆杰塔巴是否会遵循其父的传统发表新年致辞。然而穆杰塔巴只留下了一份书面声明，这让他的身体状况、下落以及在战争中所扮演的角色更加扑朔迷离。穆杰塔巴一直隐匿行踪并不令人意外，自从其父亲遇害后，以色列已经明确表示，穆杰塔巴现在是其首要打击目标。美国国防部长赫格塞思还声称，穆杰塔巴在此前的袭击中“受伤，很可能毁容”。但三周过去了，穆杰塔巴连一个预先录制的视频声明都没有发布，其沉默越来越令人震惊。美国和以色列掌握的情报表明，穆杰塔巴仍然活着，例如，有证据表明伊朗官员曾试图安排与他见面。一位美国官员表示，特朗普的国家安全团队仍在努力评估谁才是德黑兰的真正掌权者。一位以色列高级官员声称，“没有证据表明穆杰塔巴真的是在下达命令”。美国中央情报局局长拉特克利夫和国防情报局局长詹姆斯·亚当斯将军作证称，伊朗政权正经历严重的指挥控制危机，但没有即将崩溃的迹象。
