Years ago, E.F. Hutton ran a commercial that proclaimed, "When E.F. Hutton speaks, people listen." We could perhaps replace E.F. Hutton with Jensen Huang in that statement today. When the Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) CEO speaks, people listen. And Huang spoke at length at his company's 2026 GTC AI conference last week. Unsurprisingly, Huang's remarks gave Nvidia shareholders reasons for optimism about the future. However, he also delivered fantastic news for a beaten-down AI stock -- ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW) . The massive sell-off of SaaS stocks has dragged ServiceNow's shares down nearly 30% year to date. Huang, though, painted a picture of a bright future for the AI workflow platform company.

Remember the tale about Chicken Little? The young chicken believes that the sky is falling and begins warning everyone. In the original fable, though, Chicken Little actually was hit in the head by an acorn. The morals of the story are: don't jump to conclusions and don't succumb to mass hysteria.

Remember the tale about Chicken Little? The young chicken believes that the sky is falling and begins warning everyone. In the original fable, though, Chicken Little actually was hit in the head by an acorn. The morals of the story are: don't jump to conclusions and don't succumb to mass hysteria. Some investors could be modern-day versions of Chicken Little. Worries that artificial intelligence (AI) could replace software tools have led to a sell-off of SaaS stocks that was so extensive it's been nicknamed the "SaaSpocalypse." However, while many retail investors have been panic-selling, the smart money is buying some exceptional tech stocks at a discount. Image source: Getty Images. Continue reading

In this article US10Y US30Y US2Y Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on March 19, 2026 in New York City. Spencer Platt | Getty Images The 10-year Treasury yield rose on Tuesday as renewed volatility in oil markets and lingering Middle East tensions kept investors on edge. The benchmark yield was up more than 3 basis points at 4.37% as of 04:36 a.m. ET. The 30-year yield added over 2 basis points to 4.937%, while the 20-year yielded 4.968%, up about 3 basis points. One basis point is equal to 0.01%, and yields and prices move in opposite directions. The move higher in yields came as oil prices rebounded in Tuesday Asian trading, reversing part of the sharp losses seen in the previous session as traders reassessed developments in the Middle East conflict. Oil had initially slumped on Monday after U.S. President Donald Trump said Washington and Tehran had held "very good and productive conversations" toward ending hostilities, adding that he had ordered a five-day pause on planned strikes against Iran's energy infrastructure. However, the rebound in crude prices on Tuesday suggests markets remain unconvinced that tensions will ease quickly, particularly after Iranian officials denied that any talks had taken place. Analysts noted that conflicting headlines have reinforced uncertainty, keeping both energy and rates markets sensitive to developments. Easing tensions and lower oil prices had briefly supported Treasurys earlier in the week, but renewed uncertainty is once again weighing on sentiment. "Headline risk remains particularly elevated as the war continues without a clear off-ramp," BMO's head of U.S. rates strategy, Ian Lyngen, wrote, adding that U.S. rates are likely to take their primary cue from swings in energy prices until there is greater clarity on the conflict.

Following this allocation has helped investors diversify their portfolios in the past.

Researchers detail ‘surprisingly large’ cardiovascular health benefits of modest shifts in behaviour Sleeping for 11 minutes more each night, doing 4.5 additional minutes of brisk walking and eating an extra 50g or so of vegetables each day can significantly reduce a person’s risk of heart attack, a new study has found. Academics found these small changes could help people avoid major cardiovascular events , including heart attacks and strokes, by about 10%. Small behaviour changes are more “achievable and sustainable”, the research team said. Continue reading...
