Investors looking for gains in this volatile market should pick and choose their spots in artificial intelligence while also adding exposure to names unlikely to be disrupted by the new technology, according to investor Dan Niles. "You want to have a mix between asset-heavy names [and] be well diversified," the founder of Niles Investment Management said Monday in a CNBC " Squawk on the Street " interview. "The AI trade … with OpenClaw having come out, that's a good area still and I think you're hitting another inflection point in token demand." "What you're going to see is, as more people start to deploy things that are actually useful, that's eventually going to lead to these AI trades, or at least my favorite ones, starting to work again," he added. "That's why you want to have this barbel of 'HALO' names and AI names." HALO refers to "heavy asset, low obsolescence" stocks, which are seen as less vulnerable to AI disruption. Niles also said the overall stock market is oversold. That makes this "a good time to consider putting some cash to work." The S & P 500 posted on Friday its fourth losing week in a row as the U.S.-Iran war continued. Stocks rallied on Monday, however, after President Donald Trump said the two countries had "productive" talks over the weekend. On the AI front, Niles recommends investors have exposure to stocks that will likely benefit from "a massive uptick in agentic AI." Alphabet is one name that is poised to gain ground on the AI trade this year, Niles said, pointing to the company's robust resources and technology stack. To be sure, the stock has fallen more than 3% this year as the AI trade appears to lose steam. However, "as more and more people start to deploy things that are actually useful, that's eventually going to lead to these AI trades, or at least my favorite ones, starting to work again," Niles said.

industryview/iStock via Getty Images Honeywell ( HON ) on Monday introduced a gas sensor that uses non-dispersive infrared technology to detect flammable gases including methane, propane and butane in industrial environments. The sensor is designed for use in fixed systems and portable detectors carried by workers in sectors such as mining, oil and gas and petrochemical production. These detectors are intended to alert workers to the presence of hazardous gases. Performance in harsh conditions The company said the device is built to operate in environments that may include dust, temperature swings and high humidity. It includes a condensation management feature aimed at maintaining performance in settings such as underground mines and refineries. The sensor is part of Honeywell’s 4-Series line and is intended to function across a range of industrial conditions where gas detection systems are commonly deployed. Alternative to traditional sensor types Honeywell ( HON ) said the infrared-based approach differs from conventional pellistor or catalytic bead sensors, which can degrade when exposed to certain contaminants. The company said the new sensor is designed to resist such effects, which can lead to inaccurate readings. The infrared system also uses less power than some traditional sensors, which may extend the operating time of portable gas detectors.

Micron Technology Stock (MU) Opinions on Q2 Earnings Report Quiver Quantitative

A Reform UK mayoral candidate has described members of a Jewish neighbourhood watch group as “cosplayers” and likened them to “Islamists on horseback” in comments made after an attack on ambulances run by a Jewish charity. Chris Parry, who remains Reform’s mayoral candidate for Hampshire despite a previous controversy in which he said David Lammy should “go home” to the Caribbean, made the comments on Monday about Shomrim, a group of volunteers who safeguard communities including Orthodox Jewish families. Parry, a retired rear admiral, retweeted a post on X by Catherine Blaiklock, a co-founder of the Brexit party, hours after news of the attack on the ambulances in north London emerged. Shomrim works alongside Hatzola, the charity ambulance service that was targeted by arsonists early on Monday morning and provides emergency medical response and transportation to hospitals for both Jewish and non-Jewish people. Police said on Monday that counter-terrorism officers were leading an investigation into the arson attack on four ambulances. “Can Christian’s [sic] in Britain set up their own police and patrol certain neighbourhoods?” said Blaiklock, who posted a picture of a number of Shomrim vehicles. Parry shared the post, adding: “Remember that these cosplayers have no more jurisdiction or legal authority than ordinary citizens.” When he was challenged over the original post’s characterisation of Shomrim, Parry replied: “They are a community organisation, not a legal entity. It’s the same with Islamists on horseback. But if it offends you, I’ll remove it.” The politician, who is set to stand in Hampshire and the Solent in 2028, apologised for his “clumsily worded” post on X about Lammy in January. He had said the deputy prime minister, who was born in London to Guyanese parents, should “go home to the Caribbean” where his “loyalty lies”. Contacted by the Guardian about his comments on Shomrim on Monday, Parry said: “Most people on X commenting seem to be confusing vario...

Nothing has changed. Yet. But we stand on the edge of inevitable economic cataclysm, such as not seen in our lifetimes. It’s an odd, hold-your-breath moment, waiting for what the International Energy Agency (IEA) says is now certain to happen: an energy crisis so critical it will be the equivalent of the two oil crises in 1973 and 1979 and Russia’s 2022 full invasion of Ukraine, put together. The IEA says it’s already too late to prevent this impending energy crisis. President Donald Trump has swerved the Armageddon destruction of oil and gas facilities threatening the entire Middle East, but too late. The deep recession, probably depression, that his war has caused is heading around the globe. Britain will be hard hit. Trump calls on the Iranian people to rise up and overthrow their religious dictatorship. The rest of the world is willing the American people to rise up – progressives, Magas and stock marketeers alike – against their wildly out-of-control president who has no exit strategy because he never had an entry purpose. This world-changing conflagration will cost his citizens dear and they need to frighten him out of war: unpopularity is all he fears. Old allies will never again trust the US after its people elected not once but twice this most unfit, mindlessly dangerous man. “Leader of the free world”? We will never view US presidents that way again, after Trump’s preference for Putin, lifting sanctions on Russian oil, betraying Ukraine, detesting Europe and trashing all the international order it stands for. The attorney general, Richard Hermer’s, speech this evening will stand up for law against Trumpian lawlessness. Cobra met on Monday to plan energy supplies, with Starmer promising to to pull “every lever” to rescue living costs. That means acting on IEA warnings to countries to “shelter consumers from the impacts of this crisis”. They list basic fuel-saving action: cut speed limits (they were 50mph on all UK roads in the 1973 crisis), share cars, don’...

Elon Musk Unveils Ambitious Terafab Plans For Tesla, SpaceX: 'We're Starting A Galactic Civilization' Yahoo Finance Singapore

Tesla Inc. and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk on Saturday unveiled plans for the Terafab project, a joint venture between the two companies that is aimed at transforming chip manufacturing for space and AI applications. According to Musk’s announcement, the Terafab will integrate efforts from Tesla, SpaceX, and xAI. Formal announcement of the TERAFAB project, which will be done jointly by @SpaceX and @Tesla, tonight around 8pm CT. Livestream on 𝕏. The goal is to produce over a TERAWATT of compute per year (logic, memory & packaging) with ~80% for space and ~20% for the ground. "We’re starting a galactic civilization," Musk said during the announcement. Don't Miss: What Is Terafab? Speaking from the Seaholm Power Plant in Austin, Musk described the Terafab as a comprehensive chip manufacturing facility. It will consolidate all stages of chip development, including testing and packaging, under one roof. "To the best of my knowledge, this doesn’t exist anywhere in the world," Musk stated. What Will Terafab Produce? The Terafab will produce two types of chips. One is designed for Tesla's autonomous vehicles and Optimus humanoid robots, with expected production volumes significantly higher than cars. The second, the D3 chip, will be tailored for space environments, supporting solar-powered AI satellites. Trending: Investors With $1M+ Often Use Advisors for Tax Strategy — This Tool Matches You With One in Minutes Musk envisions a future where AI satellites, powered by solar energy, operate in space, reducing costs below terrestrial AI. He also proposed the potential for establishing an industrial base on the moon, unlocking petawatts of AI compute. Musk’s vision includes free trips to Saturn in a post-scarcity economy, acknowledging the ambitious nature of these plans. Alignment With Tesla's AI Infrastructure Expansion Musk teased the Terafab project launch last week, marking a significant milestone in Tesla’s AI infrastructure expansion. The initiative aligns with Musk’s vision fo...

Elon Musk Unveils Ambitious Terafab Plans For Tesla, SpaceX: 'We're Starting A Galactic Civilization' Yahoo Finance

Khosrork/iStock via Getty Images Main Thesis & Background The purpose of this article is to evaluate the BlackRock Taxable Municipal Bond Trust (NYSE: BBN ) as an investment option. This fund offers exposure to taxable municipal bonds, with an objective to "seek high current income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation". I wrote about BBN in May so it has been roughly ten months since my last article. At that time I saw value and believed a "buy" rating was appropriate. Looking back on this, it was a reasonable call. The market is up overall during this time period and BBN has also held up reasonably well: Fund Performance (Seeking Alpha) Quite a bit has changed in the world since Q2 2025, so I felt an update on this CEF was due. Fortunately for current and prospective owners of the fund, I continue to see value here. BBN has a nice discount to NAV, which compares favorably to other options in this space. Further, the yield curve has a sharp uptick for (taxable) muni securities after seven years, and that is mainly what BBN owns. Finally, equity volatility has risen, which makes hedges all the more valuable. For these reasons, I believe a "buy" rating is still the right call, and I will dig into the reasons why in detail below. The Valuation Story Is Positive All Around One of the primary reasons for my continued bullishness on BBN has to do with valuation. Those who follow my work regularly should know this doesn't come as a surprise. I like CEFs at a discount, rather than paying a premium, and view relative value as critical for new entry points. On those boxes, BBN has a favorable backdrop. At the time of my last review, the fund had a discount around 5%. We can see today that this metric has expanded to almost 7%: BBN: Quick Stats (BlackRock) This is a decent level to begin or amplify positions in my view. Not only is the discount wide for the fund on the surface, it is wider than a year ago after it registered a respectable gain. That shows underl...

00:00 Speaker A Can you say that it has been successful what you have done in here so far? 00:03 Speaker B You know, what, yes. And on the other way, not enough. We want to deliver even more in the future. But if you just think that a couple of years ago we had only one race in Austin, that uh, you know, it was quite difficult to have it to have more than 60,000 people for the weekend. We were, you know, in the old days in Indianapolis or or in Detroit in the 90s, but we were not really present in the culture and in the communication, in the sport dimension of 00:41 Speaker B You know, since almost four years, five years, we have Miami. You know, this will be the third year in Las Vegas and in a blink of an hour we move, you know, in a dimension where for example in we have more than 450,000 people. Now we have, you know, an incredible success in Miami that is sold out, in Las Vegas that is becoming a reference Grand Prix for the world. So, I think that if you look back, we were quite successful to deliver a great result in such a short time, but we are not uh, you know, as always, 01:14 Speaker B we want to do more and that's our approach. We want to we want to grow. and I have to say that to now, we have great deals, for example, the one that we have done with Apple, that will allow us to push even a different dimension that mainly for the younger generation will enable us to be even more stronger. if you look at the first two races, we received 99.9% periodic percent of wow, how many how amazing were the race because we are a lot of overtaking that people understand that as a main factor of having fun. 01:54 Speaker B Of course, as always, it is normal that it's always been the case when there is a step change of of a regulation, and this is very big. You have to expect some some things that has to be adjusted. and and and this is the approach we have always said. If there is something that we need to adjust, we will take the time with and here the federation, th...

Decisively bearish, or simply panicked activity, to finish the trading week wasn’t simply left to stock trading on S&P 500 Index ($SPX) companies. Larger institutions were equally forceful in securing protection and wagering with bearish conviction based on Barchart’s scanning and Options Flow features. The S&P 500 broke and finished just beneath its 200-day simple moving average. It’s the first technical breach of this well-watched indicator since March 2025 when Wall Street was panicking over tariffs and trade wars. Today, Iran and surging oil prices have taken center stage. Also, the CBOE Volatility Index ($VIX) rallied 25% from Wednesday’s low of 21.47% to finish at 26.78%. The sharp rise in this gauge of investor behavior is just more than 10% from the market’s historically elevated 30% level. And amidst these worrying stats and bearish-looking technicals, Meta Platforms (META) and Super Micro Computer (SMCI) had a bit more fuel adding to their fiery and unusually active options activity. META Stock’s Deep ITM Put Activity Diversified tech giant Meta Platforms is the first stock whose unusual options activity grabbed my attention. Following Thursday’s session, a simple Barchart stock scanner that incorporates options trading statistics revealed META as one with which bears appeared to have an axe to grind. Activity in Meta’s calls and puts came in slightly more than double their 3-month average as volume swelled to 1.025 million contracts. At the same time, investors were unusually fixated in the tech stock’s puts as indicated by a put-to-call (P/C) ratio of 2.46. Behind the puts outpacing calls by a margin of nearly 2.5 to 1.0, META hinted at layoffs upwards of 20% as the company looks to counter heavy AI spend. Shares finished down 1.46% following Thursday’s news. Could the longer-term price action in META stock may have had something to do with the put positioning as well? Unlike the broader S&P 500, shares have experienced a much deeper correction since las...

Getty Images The economy is going through a once-in-a-generation energy infrastructure revolution, with hyperscaler tech companies pouring an expected $600 to $700 billion in total into AI infrastructure this year alone. Much of this will require enormous amounts of electrical power to fuel the AI boom. In fact, the IEA expects that the United States data center power consumption will surge by 133% by 2030. While certainly natural gas, coal, and other more traditional energy sources are going to provide the lion's share of the energy for this, many expect renewables to play a significant role as well. Yet, XPLR Infrastructure ( XIFR ), which is the third-largest independent producer of wind and solar energy in the US, trades at a steep discount to intrinsic value. Thus, I think that XIFR offers compelling long-term upside potential for investors who are willing to be patient. However, it will require patience, because it currently does not pay any dividend, it is not buying back any stock, and still has a messy balance sheet that it needs to clean up from years of over-aggressive growth investments during a period of near-zero interest rates that led to a catastrophic elimination of its distribution a year ago. In fact, I last wrote about the company in January 2025 and highlighted that it was looking attractive on the dip as a speculative buy. However, it would be a potentially long and patience-requiring process for the company to clean up its balance sheet. In today's article, I am going to provide an update on how the company has progressed over that period of time and why I think it remains attractive today. A Powerful Portfolio Backed by NextEra Energy XIFR—a subsidiary of NextEra Energy ( NEE ), which is one of the leading utilities ( XLU ) in the United States—has a portfolio of 10 GW of wind power assets, 3 GW of solar assets, and 440 MW of storage that are secured by long-term power purchase agreements with investment-grade counterparties. In fact, it has ...

KanawatTH/iStock via Getty Images At a glance Performance The Fund returned 0.82% and the S&P 500® Index returned 2.66%. Contributors/detractors Alphabet ( GOOG ), Microsoft ( GOOG ), and Lam Research ( LRCX ) contributed to relative performance, while exposure to Oracle ( ORCL ), Apple ( AAPL ), and MercadoLibre ( MELI ) detracted. Outlook As the benefits of AI move beyond the technology's enablers and early adopters, the lift it should provide to global corporate earnings will become clearer. Portfolio management Denny Fish Jonathan Cofsky, CFA Investment environment The global technology sector gained ground in the quarter, albeit at a slower pace than broader equities. The semiconductor complex continued to benefit from optimism surrounding the artificial intelligence (AI) buildout, while software names came under pressure as investors sought to better understand how this new technology could impact these companies' business models. Also dampening optimism around the sector were continued questions about the level of debt many AI infrastructure companies have taken on to fund their initiatives. Portfolio review The themes that guided tech companies during the quarter were largely a continuation of those that dictated the sector's trajectory for much of 2025. The AI theme remains the dominant force, but the market is now being more deliberate in seeking to determine how this revolutionary technology could impact specific business models and companies. This shift is what we would expect to see as the AI trade enters the latter part of its early innings. An important development during the quarter was the impressive performance of Google's AI platform, Gemini. The leapfrogging of models – in this case Gemini claiming an advantage over OpenAI's ChatGPT – indicates that scaling laws remain intact. In simple terms, this means that massive investment in infrastructure – graphics processing units (GPUs), data centers, etc. – continues to improve AI engines' capabilities...

Lululemon Athletica (LULU +1.12%) was once the envy of all athleisure retailers. The company set the standard for what was considered trendy, particularly among yoga practitioners and fitness buffs. From 2019 through 2023, the company's stock reflected this dominance, even reaching a peak of over $500 per share in late 2023. Since then, Lululemon has largely fallen out of favor with consumers, and the company is struggling to regain its footing. In January 2026, Lululemon's CEO, Calvin McDonald, left the role. The company has yet to name a permanent successor. The founder and former CEO of Lululemon, Chip Wilson, has been in a proxy battle with the company. Wilson has been vocal regarding his displeasure with the brand's performance and direction. Lululemon's stock has fallen about 50% over the past year. For investors who held on to their shares, the biggest question is whether the company has hit rock bottom yet and, if so, when the real recovery will begin. Lululemon at a crossroads Lululemon entered 2026 as a consumer discretionary company in the doldrums, searching for a path forward. The company had made a series of product missteps amid declining foot traffic in its North American stores. For the full fiscal year 2025, sales decreased 3%, and revenue in the Americas decreased 1%. International business is a bright spot in the beleaguered company. Throughout 2025, the company reported double-digit growth in international revenue. Lululemon's international net revenue increased 22% from the year prior, according to its full-year results released on March 17. Lululemon is also facing headwinds with increased competition and price-conscious consumers who don't feel the need to be loyal to any one particular apparel brand. Looking ahead through 2026, Lululemon anticipates net revenue growth of 2% to 4%. On the bright side, growth is still positive. On the negative side, low single-digit increases aren't super exciting to shareholders. Expand NASDAQ : LULU Lululemo...

Finding a quality mid-cap stock to invest in can lead to huge returns for investors down the road. These are the types of companies that are still in their early growth stages and that can possess significant upside. There is some unavoidable risk and uncertainty, and the key is to ensure you don't take on too much. One stock that's been on my watch list for a while is CRISPR Therapeutics (CRSP +1.95%). The company has an intriguing business, as not only could it generate a lot of revenue in the future, but it may also be a potential acquisition target. It has an approved gene-editing therapy, Casgevy, and there's hope that CRISPR may obtain additional approvals in the future. This year, the healthcare stock is down 9% after recently announcing an offering. Could it be a bargain buy right now? The company recently completed a private offering On March 16, CRISPR announced that it completed a private offering of convertible senior notes, raising net proceeds of $585.2 million, which it will use for general corporate purposes. Issuing convertible notes is dilutive as they can be converted into equity in the future, and this offering has had a negative impact on CRISPR's share price; in the past month, the stock has declined by 12%. The offering also highlights the growing need for CRISPR to raise cash in order to grow its business. The company generated just $3.5 million in revenue last year (all from grants), and its net loss of $581.6 million grew from $366.3 million in the previous year. The company shares in the profits on Casgevy with its development partner, Vertex Pharmaceuticals, so despite the therapy generating $116 million in revenue last year, it didn't result in a big improvement on CRISPR's bottom line.

They might be better than gas-powered cars in most conceivable ways, but electric vehicle sales are having an undeniably hard time right now. The cause is no mystery: since January 2025 the US government has been actively hostile to the idea of energy efficiency and in the intervening months has taken an axe to fuel efficiency regulations, prosecuting polluters, and the consumer-facing tax credit. That last one had the effect of bringing forward sales from people who needed an EV and knew the credit was expiring at the end of last September, leading to a rosy-looking Q3 2025 followed by a rather bad Q4. Things got even worse this year—in January just 5.1 percent of all new vehicles sold were EVs , compared to 8.3 percent in January 2025. But the government's antipathy toward EVs isn't done yet. House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chair Sam Graves (R-Mo.) wants to include an annual $250 tax on EV drivers—hybrids would also pay $100 a year—in an upcoming bill. This is the second time Graves has tried to tax drivers of more efficient vehicles; last year the committee under Graves wanted to include an escalating EV tax , starting at $200 annually, into the budget but was unsuccessful.
