Amazon’s third annual Big Spring Sale might be a great opportunity to pick up a color ebook reader or an RGB-equipped table lamp , but the pickings are slimmer when it comes to noise-canceling headphones. Sure, the Sony WH-1000XM6 are just over $60 off , though I’d argue the Sonos Ace are a better deal, given they’re currently on sale at Amazon , Best Buy , and Sonos’ online storefront for a cool $299 ($100). Sonos Ace Where to Buy: $399 $299 at Amazon $399 $299 at Best Buy $399 $299 at Sonos The Sonos Ace are a great product that came at the wrong time. The company’s app crisis pretty much overshadowed their debut in 2024, which is a shame considering they’re a gorgeous pair of over-ear headphones with powerful, detailed sound and a comfortable design that lets you easily swap the ear pads. Sound-wise, you can expect something on par with what you might get from a pair of Bose or Apple headphones, with a natural-sounding transparency mode that’s really only second to the original AirPods Max (no word on the Max 2 ). The biggest downside to the Ace is that you can’t play music over Wi-Fi or group them with the company’s in-home speakers (although they do support wired audio over USB-C). However, for me, the fact that they can leverage Sonos’ TV Audio Swap feature is what makes them a standout. The unique tool allows you to instantly transfer the sound from a Sonos soundbar — including the Sonos Arc, the entry-level Sonos Ray, and both iterations of the Sonos Beam — to either one or two pairs of the Ace with the simple press of a button. You can also trigger the feature within the Sonos app, which lets you enable spatial audio and head tracking for a fuller, more cinematic experience. Admittedly, TV Audio Swap is only going to appeal to those already tapped into the Sonos ecosystem. That said, I routinely use the feature to listen while watching movies and gaming (with minimal lag!), mostly so I don’t disturb folks in my household who might be sleeping. Sonos’ newer ...

"When in doubt in this market, check the direction of oil. Ignore those who scoff at every word out of the president's mouth," said Cramer Wednesday on "Mad Money," noting that President Donald Trump has often been able to talk the market out of a rut. According to Cramer, the street chose to focus on the doom and gloom of rising oil prices, disregarding Wednesday's pullback. "Everyone was acting like oil was still soaring," Cramer said. Oil fell Wednesday amid investor optimism that the U.S. and Iran could agree to a ceasefire. The pullback followed reports that Iran received a 15-point proposal from the U.S. to end the war. On Wednesday, Iran state media said they would reject the offer and instead issued a plan out a five-point plan with conditions that the country controls the Strait of Hormuz. International benchmark Brent Crude shed 2.17% to settle at $102.22 per barrel, while West Texas Intermediate dropped 2.2% to $90.32 per barrel following the developments. "I'm seeing denial all over the place, and it's really cutting into everyone's performance," Cramer said, noting that stocks advanced on Wednesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 300 points. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite also closed the session out modestly higher. "Whoever is selling at that moment has to stop because the presidential put has spoken," said Cramer. "The president likes to keep the market in the air and knows the words people want to hear." Cramer said investors should stop ignoring the truth of what's occurring both in oil and the broader market. "Stop drinking denial," Cramer said. "You're gonna get sick." watch now VIDEO 11:50 11:50 ...

Gold steadied after a two-day recovery, as traders weighed conflicting statements from the US and Iran about negotiations to end the war in the Middle East. Bullion was near $4,510 an ounce in early trading, having gained more than 2% over the previous two sessions. The White House insisted that talks with Iran are taking place and has compiled a 15-point peace proposal, while Tehran publicly rejected US overtures to end the conflict and issued conditions of its own. Even as it pursues diplomacy, the US has ordered thousands of troops to the region, fueling fears of a risky ground invasion . Read More: US Insists Talks Ongoing Even as Iran Rejects Trump Outreach Since the war began nearly a month ago, gold has fallen nearly 15%, moving largely in tandem with stocks and in an inverse relationship with oil. Spiking energy prices have raised the risk of inflation and led investors to bet that central banks will keep interest rates unchanged, or hike them. That’s a headwind for non-yielding bullion. Spot gold edged up 0.1% to $4,509.59 an ounce at 6:21 a.m. Singapore time. Silver slipped 0.1% to $71.15. Platinum and palladium were little changed. The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index ended the previous session up 0.2%.

More Than 450 TSA Agents Have Quit During DHS Shutdown Authored by Savannah Hulsey Pointer via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), More than 450 Transportation Security Administration agents have quit since the start of the partial Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown. Travelers wait in long security lines at George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston, Texas, on March 23, 2026. Ronaldo Schmidt/AFP via Getty Images The partial shutdown has been ongoing since March 15, when funding for the agency lapsed without additional funding in place. Lauren Bis, acting assistant secretary for Public Affairs at DHS, told the Epoch Times in an emailed statement that as of day 38 of the partial shutdown, American travelers are facing hours-long waits at airports across the country. “ More than 450 TSA officers quit and thousands have called out sick from work because they are not able to afford gas, childcare, food, or rent ,” Bis said. “President [Donald] Trump is taking action to deploy hundreds of ICE officers, who are currently funded by Congress, to airports being adversely impacted. This will help bolster TSA efforts to keep our skies safe and minimize air travel disruptions.” The department stated that callout rates for TSA agents remained elevated, reaching almost 11 percent on March 23 , representing 3,200 officers absent from duty. The recorded high callout rate for the shutdown was nearly 12 percent the day before. Major airports saw higher than average absences among agents, including 33.7 percent at John F. Kennedy International Airport, 30.4 percent at Baltimore/Washington International Airport, and 27.5 percent at Pittsburgh International Airport LaGuardia Airport’s callout rate was 20.3 percent, 37.4 percent at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, 34.9 percent at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, and 40.3 percent at William P. Hobby Airport in Houston. Federal immigration agents were deployed to 14 U.S. airports starting on ...

zorazhuang/iStock via Getty Images TC Energy ( TRP ) said Wednesday its Coastal GasLink pipeline project signed commercial agreements with LNG Canada to advance the project's phase 2. TC Energy ( TRP ) said the deals mark an important milestone for Coastal GasLink Phase 2, which still requires a final investment decision by LNG Canada and its joint venture participants, along with approvals from Coastal GasLink. The agreements create a comprehensive commercial framework that supports LNG Canada's pathway to FID by supporting front-end engineering and design and the execution activities that would follow, while maintaining disciplined capital, risk and governance principles, the company said. " Doubling the transmission of natural gas through the existing pipeline will help further strengthen Canada's role as a reliable supplier to global LNG markets," TC Energy ( TRP ) President and CEO François Poirier said. "Increasing LNG exports presents an extraordinary opportunity to transform our economy and establish our country as the number one LNG exporter to Asia." Poirier said earlier this week that the disruption to global liquefied natural gas supplies caused by the Middle East war makes it more likely that a second stage of Canada's massive LNG Canada facility would be built.

tupungato/iStock Editorial via Getty Images March 25th was a really difficult day for shareholders of recreational vehicle company Winnebago Industries, Inc. ( WGO ). The stock fell around 6.9% after management announced financial results for the second quarter of the company's 2026 fiscal year. This was actually surprising to me. Revenue and profitability improved year over year. And in fact, financial performance came in above what analysts were anticipating. The company is targeting some growth this year, both on the top and bottom lines. But what likely turned investors off was the fact that the company believes that market conditions will remain mixed throughout 2026. In my previous article about the business, published in December of last year, I acknowledged the mixed picture of the business. And in a separate article completely unrelated to Winnebago Industries, I did challenge the narrative that this year will be a positive year for the RV industry. But at the same time, because of how cheap shares are, I have been bullish. Long term, I believe in the company. And even though the stock is down since I last wrote about it, even underperforming the S&P 500 during that time, I believe that it will do fine enough to justify keeping it as a "Buy" candidate. Taking A Ride With Winnebago Industries The second quarter of the 2026 fiscal year was actually a good time for Winnebago Industries. Take revenue for starters. It came in at $657.4 million for the quarter. That happened to be 6% above the $620.2 million that the company reported the previous year. It also was $30.2 million above what analysts were hoping to see . This is, objectively, a good outcome for the company. And on the bottom line, we saw strength as well. Author - SEC EDGAR Data Earnings per share, for instance, went from negative $0.02 to positive $0.17. That reading ended up being $0.03 higher than what analysts were hoping to see. It ultimately translated to a rise in the bottom line from a loss ...
