The Glaswegian standup on joining the ego-less Saturday Night Live, smiling at himself in the mirror and why he’s not slept in his new house Behind the scenes, is SNL UK a tightly controlled machine or complete chaos?

The Glaswegian standup on joining the ego-less Saturday Night Live, smiling at himself in the mirror and why he’s not slept in his new house Behind the scenes, is SNL UK a tightly controlled machine or complete chaos? It’s genuinely a combination of both: mayhem that is very well organised. Making a show from scratch from Monday to Saturday is going to be chaotic but they’ve got the best of the best in the crew. All the wardrobe people, the camera crew, the set designers … they’re just incredible. There have been moments I’ve thought: are we going to pull this off? But every single time, we manage brilliantly. Where were you when you got the call saying you were going to be a cast member? In Daniel Sloss’s bedroom. He woke me up … To be honest, I have no idea. I just make up a different story every time. Continue reading...

jetcityimage/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Cummins ( CMI ) reported strong 1Q26 results last month. Power Systems delivered a record EBITDA margin of 29.5%. Management raised full-year revenue guidance from 3-8% growth to 8-11%, and the EBITDA margin outlook was raised as well. With the company seeing strong demand in the Power Systems business from data center demand and the truck market recovering faster than expected in the Engine and Components segments, Cummins continues to execute. As the business keeps getting better and demand tailwinds look more structural and secular, I think the company's valuation is worthy of its re-rating. A look at 1Q26 results Cummins' Q1 was strong in that it beat on the top and bottom lines. Revenues clocked in at $8.40 billion and grew 3% versus last year, and surpassed sell-side estimates modestly by $32 million . On the bottom line, EPS of $6.62 was up 11% from the prior year even with EBITDA margins 20 bps lower than last year at 17.7% . On GAAP EPS, the headline figure of $4.71 missed the $5.61 estimate by 16%, but that was entirely explained by a $199 million charge related to the sale of the low-pressure fuel cell business. On a per-share basis, that's a $1.44 per-share headwind that the market appropriately looked through. Investor Presentation Looking at Cummins' business performance by segment, Power Systems revenue grew 19%, and EBITDA margins expanded to 29.5%. On the revenue side, most of this growth came from higher power generation demand, especially for new data center applications. We saw this help EBITDA in particular expand from 23.6% margins to 29.5%. In the distribution segment, revenues grew 7% with EBITDA margins expanding 130 bps to 14.2%. These two segments together are doing most of the heavy lifting and are being driven by data center backup power demand that seems to show no sign of slowing. Company Filings Offsetting this growth have been the Engines and Components segments. Engine revenues fell 4% ...

The tech giant has a massive $4.5 trillion market cap and a quick equity raise was a small blip on the stock valuation. My investment thesis remains ultra Bullish on an emerging AI leader, though the valuation isn't nearly as attractive after Google has rallied to all-time highs. Source: Finviz Big Capital Raise In a surprise move, Google announced plans to raise $80 billon in equity offerings , including a $10 billion investment from Berkshire Hathaway ( BRK.B ). The tech giant will raise the $80 billion via the following offerings: $40 billion via at-the-market program $30 billion in an underwritten public offerings $5 billion in Class A stock to Berkshire at $351.81 $5 billion in Class C stock to Berkshire at $348.20 Along with Q1 earnings, Google announced plans to spend an incredible $185 billion on capex this year alone. The company forecast spending even more on capex in 2027. While the market sweated huge AI spending, Google just sprinted ahead with a big capital raise. The company will dilute shareholders by less than 2% to raise the $80 billion of additional capital. Google ended Q1 with a net cash balance of $127 billion. The company still reported positive cash flows in Q1'26 of $10 billion despite spending a whopping $36 billion on capex in the March quarter. Source: Google Q1'26 presentation The tech giant has produced $64 billion free cash flow over the last 12 months, so the company hasn't faced any problems financing the massive spending spree. The issue is that Q1 spending was only at a pace of $142 billion and Google has plans to end up spending $150 billion, $50 billion per quarter, the rest of the year. Google now has pro-forma cash of $207 billion, far more than the $150 billion spending plans for the rest of the year. The company will add another $125+ billion in o...

Investors may not agree on exactly how or when driverless vehicles and robotaxis will take over the roads. Still, they'll all likely agree that driverless vehicles are certainly coming -- maybe sooner than we think, thanks in part to artificial intelligence (AI). Robotaxi fleets alone are surging, with Goldman Sachs forecasting it will grow from roughly 7,000 vehicles to roughly 1 million in 2030, and then 6 million by 2035. More broadly, the autonomous vehicle (AV) market is expected to grow to over $40 trillion by 2034. Driverless vehicles are coming , and these three stocks are well-positioned to thrive.

Apple has broken out to new all-time highs, and the market is beginning to reprice the company as more than just a mature iPhone cycle story. After spending months capped near prior resistance, AAPL has cleared the $300 zone and is now extending higher with strong relative strength. That breakout reflects renewed confidence that Apple's earnings profile is accelerating again, supported by a strong iPhone upgrade cycle, record Services revenue, and the next phase of Apple Intelligence monetization. Apple also authorized an additional $100 billion share repurchase program, reinforcing the power of its free-cash-flow model. With the company's Worldwide Developers Conference beginning Monday, investors now have a near-term catalyst for Apple's next AI product cycle. Apple has confirmed that the event will reveal its latest software and technologies, and the market is likely to focus heavily on how Apple Intelligence, Siri, and on-device AI features become more deeply embedded across the installed base. Trade timing & outlook AAPL recently broke out above its prior $285 resistance level, which had capped rallies for several months. Breakout confirmation: The stock has cleared a major $300 resistance zone and pushed to new all-time highs, confirming a bullish continuation pattern. Relative strength: AAPL has been outperforming the S & P 500, reflecting renewed institutional accumulation as investors rotate back into mega-cap quality growth. Upside potential: If the breakout holds, the next upside target is the $340 area , which aligns with the upper strike of the call spread. Fundamentals Apple trades at a premium valuation, but that premium is supported by best-in-class margins, an unmatched installed base, and accelerating growth from iPhone and Services. While Apple's expected growth is below the broader industry average, its profitability remains substantially higher. The key question is whether Services growth and Apple Intelligence can justify the premium multiple. ...
