Vertigo3d/iStock via Getty Images BNP Paribas is warning that inflationary pressures are likely to remain persistent, with U.S. price growth settling closer to 3% rather than returning to pre-pandemic norms. In a recent investor report, the bank raised its 2026 forecasts, projecting headline CPI at 3.3% and core CPI at 3.2% on a fourth-quarter basis. A key driver behind the revised outlook is the recent surge in oil ( CL1:COM ) prices, which BNP Paribas expects will continue feeding into broader inflation. The bank noted that its projections are based on current futures markets but cautioned that a prolonged Middle East conflict could push energy prices—and inflation—higher than anticipated. Beyond energy, shifting dynamics in corporate pricing power are also expected to contribute, it noted. The rebound in wholesale margins suggests retailers may no longer be able to absorb tariff-related costs, increasing the likelihood that higher prices are passed on to consumers. However, not all components are accelerating. The bank revised its rent inflation outlook lower, citing weaker-than-expected growth in market rents. Meanwhile, BNP Paribas expects the gap between PCE and CPI measures to narrow, though core PCE is still projected to run modestly above CPI by late 2026.

Uber Technologies Inc. is expanding its New York offices, now the biggest outside its San Francisco headquarters, a reflection of the city’s growing importance to the company’s operations since Chief Executive Officer Dara Khosrowshahi moved there in recent years. To accommodate its local workforce, which has grown to more than 2,000 employees from 800 before the pandemic, the ride-hailing giant is increasing its footprint in 3 World Trade Center in Manhattan’s Financial District to 11 floors, spanning nearly 500,000 square feet, a spokesperson told Bloomberg. The company has also been renting large swaths of office suites in the Industrious co-working space, which occupies two floors in the same building. Prior to the expansion, the New York office had been running out of desks, and the company also packed them close together to accommodate the influx of staff, according to people familiar with the matter. Uber’s New York office has seen a surge in employees after the company announced a three-day-a-week office mandate that went into effect last June. Remote work approvals have been scaled back as some US workers who live within 50 miles of an office have been asked to comply with the policy. As of last December, the company and its subsidiaries had about 34,000 employees globally and operates in more than 70 countries. (Its approximately 10 million drivers are mostly classified as independent contractors.) Khosrowshahi, who relocated to New York in 2024 to be closer to family, has said publicly that the company’s work culture may not be for everyone. “If you’re not performing, we’re going to let you know, and if you don’t fix it, we’re going to push you out,” he said on The Diary of A CEO podcast last month. “But while it will be incredibly hard, you will have real agency at the company.” The growth of the New York City staff accelerated to about 17% in October compared with January 2024, even as personnel levels remained flat for California, according to an analy...

In this article AMZN Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT A Zoox autonomous robotaxi in San Francisco on Dec. 4, 2024. David Paul Morris | Bloomberg | Getty Images Amazon 's Zoox self-driving unit is preparing to launch its robotaxi service to some members of the public in Austin and Miami later this year, the company announced Tuesday. Zoox will soon deploy its toaster-shaped robotaxis, which have no steering wheel or pedals, for testing in "a small area" of both cities. Trips will initially be limited to Zoox employees, their family and friends, before the launch of its Explorer program, where the public can join a waitlist to ride in the vehicles. The company has slowly opened up its robotaxi service to the public over the past year. Zoox, which Amazon acquired in 2020, began offering free driverless rides last year around the Las Vegas Strip and certain San Francisco neighborhoods. As of late March, the company said it had served 350,000 riders, and about 500,000 people have joined a waitlist for its Explorer program. Zoox is racing to catch up to Alphabet 's Waymo, the U.S. robotaxi leader . Waymo currently offers 400,000 paid rides per week across six U.S. metro areas. It's now operating its service commercially in 10 U.S. cities, and aiming for expansion to London and Tokyo this year. As part of Tuesday's announcement, Zoox is also expanding its service areas in San Francisco and Las Vegas. The move will add TK square miles of coverage in San Francisco, including the Marina, North Beach, Chinatown and Pacific Heights neighborhoods, as well as along the Embarcadero. Previously, its service was limited to the city's SoMa, Mission and Design districts.

In this article CSCO PANW Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Ali Ghodsi, CEO of Databricks speaks on CNBC. CNBC Databricks has grown from startup into major software company, generating billions by processing data and running generative artificial intelligence models for clients. For its next leg of growth, it's turning to cybersecurity with a new offering called Lakewatch. Adobe and National Australia Bank are currently using it, according to a statement. Anthropic also uses Databricks for cybersecurity purposes, and its models are running inside Lakewatch. Customers can now ask about adopting Lakewatch. CEO and cofounder Ali Ghodsi said large language models, or LLMs, "have matured to a point that you can actually automate and augment a significant portion" of cybersecurity. The product represents a nascent alternative to security information and event management, or SIEM, services from the likes of Palo Alto Networks , Cisco -owned Splunk, Google and Microsoft . If Lakewatch takes hold, it could help Databricks justify its $134 billion valuation to public investors ahead of a public offering. Ghodsi said in December that he wouldn't rule out a 2026 IPO. Rather than charge based on the amount of data stored, Databricks will determine Lakewatch costs by how much work the software performs. "The prevailing pricing model is at odds with protecting against this avalanche that's coming our way, because it's just too prohibitively expensive to get all your data in there," Ghodsi said in an interview.

Sign up to receive future editions, straight to your inbox. More women are entering the wealth management industry, but they have yet to gain ground in client-facing advisory roles, according to a recent study by private wealth intelligence platform Fintrx. While the data shows improvement in the industry's gender gap, the nuance is still notable. Revenue-generating roles are generally better paid and more conducive to leadership roles, according to Fintrx Vice President of Data and Research Emily Goldman. "Underrepresentation here directly affects female employees' earnings," Goldman said. "And that lack of opportunity for leadership and ownership is also going to affect their long-term earnings." Younger women are making inroads in wealth management overall, with women accounting for 37.6% of registered professionals aged 20-30, according to Fintrx. For the 30-40 and 40-50 age brackets, the share of women hovers below 27%. The shift comes as women's wealth is expected to boom in the coming years. Cerulli Associates estimates $105 trillion in wealth will be passed down to heirs through 2048, with $54 trillion going to spouses. As women tend to live longer than men, they will likely receive the lion's share. However, while young women are entering the industry in greater numbers, the growth is concentrated in administrative or operational roles, according to Goldman. Women account for just 20.2% of producing advisors aged 20 to 30, a percentage near identical for advisors aged 30-40 and 40-50. The share is only modestly higher than that of advisors aged 50-60 (18%) and 60-plu...

One of Europe’s leading satellite operators, SES SA , is betting on US company K2 Space to build a cheaper and faster network for internet connectivity amid increased competition from newer rivals like SpaceX and Blue Origin . Luxembourg-based SES said it will buy 28 satellite buses, the main platform of the spacecraft, from Los Angeles startup K2 Space for its new network of around 100 satellites in medium-Earth orbit (MEO), about 8,000 kilometers above the planet. SES currently operates roughly 120 satellites that beam down connectivity for governments and businesses, including airlines and cruise ships. The company plans for its new meoSphere network to be fully operational in 2030. Founded by a former SpaceX engineer and his brother in 2022, K2 Space aims to create large and powerful spacecraft for a fraction of the price of current models. Each K2 Space satellite bus costs just $15 million, a price that is “double digits percent” less than a customized spacecraft from the company’s historical contractors, according to SES Chief Executive Officer Adel Al-Saleh . With legacy manufacturers, which include Boeing Co. and Northrop Grumann Corp. , “when you define the architecture, that goes into production between five and seven years later,” he said in an interview. “You’ve got to be doing it in a one-year cycle. It’s exactly what we’re going to be changing.” K2 Space in December raised $250 million with a $3 billion valuation in a funding round led by Redpoint and including Lightspeed Venture Partners and other investors. The startup is now preparing for the launch of its first satellite by the end of March. Building the first satellite helped the startup confirm the cost structure and “that we can sell it at scale at that price point,” K2 Space CEO Karan Kunjur said. The SES-K2 announcement builds on a partnership the two companies announced in September 2025 , when they said that they had started development of a new MEO network. The new project demonstrates SES’...

Olemedia/E+ via Getty Images I think Bitcoin offers a rather favorable setup today because the price has reset far more than the adoption has. Bitcoin no longer trades like a euphoric asset, yet the buyer base keeps getting broader. What Drives Bitcoin Today Bitcoin still comes down to scarce new supply meeting variable but growing demand. 21 million BTC will ever exist. Less than a million are left to be mined over the next century. Demand is no longer confined to niche exchanges and retail speculation. Traditional brokers are offering BTC and other crypto, and even including the option to withdraw to self custody. The SEC approved spot Bitcoin ETPs on January 10, 2024, and the product set has since matured into a large pool of regulated access. IBIT’s current size on its own is enough to show that this is not a passing experiment. What’s even more remarkable is that IBIT’s options market has started to surpass Deribit in open interest and volume. Deribit is the offshore crypto options exchange that has dominated the crypto options scene for years. Combine this with the growth of CME futures on BTC and we see that the U.S. regulated derivatives complex for Bitcoin is signaling increased demand by more traditional institutions. Corporate balance sheets are now part of that demand stack too, and this is perhaps the most underappreciated even though it is the most important. Strategy remains the main case, but it is no longer alone. Over 2025 , the number of new public companies holding BTC doubled. Number of Bitcoin-Holding Companies (Bitcoin for Corporations) Almost half a million BTC—equivalent to half the remaining supply to be released over the next century— was purchased by public corporations in 2025 . This does not include private companies or institutional investors. Corporate Bitcoin Holdings (Bitcoin for Corporations) The important thing is Bitcoin does not need every public company to become MicroStrategy. A widening corporate buyer universe is enough to d...

Richard Drury/DigitalVision via Getty Images Investment environment U.S. shares rose on positive corporate earnings news and hopes for Federal Reserve (Fed) rate cuts. The Fed followed up a September rate cut with two 25 basis point (bp) reductions, in October and December, respectively. Despite slower-than-expected employment growth, economic growth remained resilient. Wage growth remained strong and companies maintained confidence in continued capital spending. Also, inflation remained relatively subdued. Excitement around artificial intelligence (AI) was a strong driver of returns early in the quarter. The market started to broaden in the second half of October as concerns over valuations and potential investment returns led to volatility in some, but not all, AI-related stocks. Despite this volatility, stocks ended the year on a strong note. Portfolio review In the fourth quarter, dividend stocks lagged the broader market, and our emphasis on high-quality, dividend-growth stocks modestly hindered relative performance. In terms of individual stock performance, Lam Research Corporation ( LRCX ) was among the top relative contributors. The semiconductor manufacturing equipment company benefited from growing optimism around AI infrastructure spending and wafer fabrication equipment demand. Lam has gained market share by positioning itself with more exposure to higher growth segments and has recovered from a deeper valuation discount relative to peers. The company's outlook is bolstered by a strong position in the memory market, which is seeing demand exceed supply. Eli Lilly ( LLY ) was also among the top relative contributors. The pharmaceutical company reached a favorable pricing agreement with the administration that will dramatically expand access to its glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) products in 2026. The pricing terms proved more favorable than earlier concerns suggested, helping the stock recover. Strong fundamentals across the entire portfolio have continue...
