Strong quarterly results from Micron Technology MU and FedEx FDX stood out as rare bright spots in an otherwise turbulent week, as broader equity indexes retreated sharply amid surging oil prices and heightened economic uncertainty stemming from the conflict in Iran. Neither were immune to the volatility in Friday’s trading session, but Micron and FedEx stock may serve as appealing buy-the-dip targets as they posted blowout quarterly earnings on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively. Optimistically, there were a few other standouts that could potentially combat weaker market sentiment after impressively beating EPS expectations. Micron’s Record-Breaking Growth Continues Explosive demand for AI-related memory products has led to tight industry supply, allowing Micron to command higher prices and deliver stronger margins, with its stock currently boasting a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). Reporting results for its fiscal second quarter, Micron’s Q2 sales nearly tripled year over year to a record $23.86 billion from $8.05 billion in the comparative quarter. The surge was fueled by high demand for Micron’s high-bandwidth memory (HBM) products, which are used in Nvidia’s NVDA GPUs. More importantly, Micron continued to show strong execution, with Q2 EPS at $12.20, topping expectations of $8.80 by 38.64% and skyrocketing from $1.56 per share a year ago. Micron also produced record quarterly free cash flow of $6.9 billion and has efficiently scaled its next-generation memory production. With analysts seeing the current memory cycle as the strongest in years, Micron guided its Q3 sales at $33.5 billion, well ahead of expectations of $22.79 billion or 101% growth. Benefitting from a blazing trend of positive earnings estimate revisions, Micron is currently expected to post FY26 EPS of $36.18. More intriguing, analysts project Micron will pass $100 billion in annual sales next year, and FY27 EPS projections are at a whopping $54.78. FedEx Fires on all Cylinders FedEx’s results for...

Despite recent stock market “digestion,” Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives remains ultra-bullish on Nvidia Corp., projecting the chipmaker will hit a $6 trillion market capitalization by 2027 as the artificial intelligence (AI)revolution enters its next aggressive phase. The ‘Godfather’ Of AI Revolution In a recent interview with CNBC International, following Nvidia's GTC event, Ives dismissed concerns over the stock's recent “treadmill” price action, attributing the volatility to the company becoming a “victim of their own success.” While some investors are demanding immediate proof of further growth, Ives argues that we are only in year three of an 8 to 10-year build-out. “There’s one chip in the world fueling the AI revolution, and that’s Nvidia,” Ives stated, referring to CEO Jensen Huang as the “Godfather of AI.” Don't Miss: He noted that the demand-to-supply ratio for Nvidia's chips currently sits at a staggering 12-to-1, a gap that suggests the company is “sandbagging” its long-term guidance by 20% to 30%. A $6 Trillion Milestone The crux of the Wedbush thesis lies in the sheer scale of the addressable market. While the market currently eyes a $3 trillion to $4 trillion opportunity in inference and hardware, Ives believes the trajectory is much steeper. “I think this is a $6 trillion market cap by 2027,” Ives predicted, citing a massive backlog and the transition of Nvidia from a mere chip provider to a foundational platform. As per the last check, Nvidia’s market valuation stood at $4.385 trillion. Trending: What If Tires Didn't Need Air — Or Replacing? This Startup Says It's Possible The Second And Third Derivatives Beyond the hardware, Ives highlighted a “memory super cycle” and an impending software boom. He expects software to become the “hearts and lungs” of the AI revolution in the second half of the year. Despite competition from hyperscalers like Alphabet Inc.‘s and Microsoft Corp., Ives maintains that the “AI ghost trade” is ending, giving way to ...

Investors and dealmakers preparing for SpaceX‘s upcoming $1.75 trillion IPO must reckon with one of the most powerful—and most dangerous—variables in public equities: the Elon Musk effect. Tesla‘s history offers an object lesson in this dynamic, as our SpaceX pre-IPO report explains. Since 2017, PitchBook identified 99 major events that moved the EV leader’s stock 7% or more on elevated volume. About 6 in 10 were driven by company-specific catalysts. Corporate governance and political events, almost all of which trace directly to Musk, produced average moves of nearly 12%, statistically indistinguishable from earnings reactions, and skewed heavily negative. The Musk premium cuts both ways. Tesla rallied over 90% in the month following the 2024 presidential election on the “Trump-Musk trade,” only to surrender those gains entirely by March 2025 as DOGE backlash, European boycotts and a 49% collapse in China sales converged. SpaceX’s unconventional offering could amplify these dynamics. The company plans to float roughly 3% to 4% of its equity (the thinnest large-cap float in modern history), meaning Musk-driven sentiment shifts hit a much narrower order book. Where Tesla sees 10% to 15% swings on governance and political catalysts, PitchBook expects SpaceX to experience 20% to 30% moves on equivalent news. Another factor is the company’s credibility gap with investors, which is also familiar to Tesla shareholders. SpaceX management typically delivers on its targets, but only 1 in 5 get done on time. The rest run two to three years late. Shareholders will price this pattern through a kind of credibility ledger, discounting management timelines by 1.5x to 2.5x while maintaining directional conviction. The bottom line is that SpaceX’s IPO will test everyone whose reputation rides on it. Bankers must price a company whose controlling shareholder can move markets with a few words. Management must ground its guidance in tighter, more defensible ranges than it has historica...

Tesla, Inc. isn't just choosing a chip supplier. It's choosing where its future lives. By tapping Samsung's new Texas fab to produce next-gen AI chips, Elon Musk is making a move that looks less about performance — and more about control. Because in AI, supply chains are strategy. This Isn't About Chips — It's About Geography For years, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd. has been the default for cutting-edge semiconductors. Most of the AI world still runs through Taiwan. Tesla just stepped away from that gravity. Don't Miss: Samsung's Taylor, Texas facility — set to produce Tesla's AI chips starting 2027 — anchors a critical piece of Musk's stack firmly on U.S. soil. That's not just manufacturing. That's insulation. In a world where chip supply can be disrupted by geopolitics, shipping lanes or policy shifts, Tesla is quietly reducing a major risk: dependence on Asia. The Rise Of A ‘Sovereign' AI Supply Chain Tesla already designs its own silicon. Now it's pairing that with domestic manufacturing. Put the pieces together, and a pattern emerges: Design: in-house Manufacturing: U.S.-based Deployment: global Trending: This Startup Thinks It Can Reinvent the Wheel — Literally This is what a sovereign chip chain looks like. Advertisement It's not about beating TSMC on process nodes, at least not yet. It's about ensuring that Tesla's AI ambitions — from Full Self-Driving to Optimus — aren't bottlenecked by external dependencies. Why This Matters For The AI Race AI isn't just software anymore. Its hardware, energy, and infrastructure — all tightly coupled. If Tesla controls its chips, it controls the pace of its AI rollout. And that changes the competitive landscape. While others optimize for performance or cost, Tesla is optimizing for certainty — ensuring that the compute powering its vehicles and robots isn't stuck waiting in a fragile global supply chain.

Astera Labs faces investor caution as execs sell stock, despite strong AI hardware demand. Upcoming May earnings are a crucial test for the company's high-growth trajectory. While the company is operationally positioned as a critical component within the global AI infrastructure build-out, significant equity sales by its top executives are introducing a note of caution. Investors are now weighing whether the firm's robust growth metrics can counterbalance the apparent skepticism signaled by its own management team. Leadership Cashing Out Raises Eyebrows The stock came under notable selling pressure recently, shedding over seven percent to trade at 102.00 euros. This decline is largely attributed to reports of substantial insider selling activity. Over the past three months, senior leaders, including the Chief Executive Officer, have disposed of sizable portions of their holdings. The market frequently interprets such transactions as a potential indicator that near-term valuations may have become stretched. With this latest drop, the equity has now declined by almost 34 percent since the start of the year. Strong Fundamentals and Analyst Support Fundamentally, Astera Labs continues to benefit from unrelenting demand for specialized hardware that networks AI chips. Its latest quarterly report showcased this strength, with revenue reaching approximately $270.6 million. This performance demonstrates the company's ability to capitalize on the industry-wide data center upgrade cycle, even alongside giants like NVIDIA. Market researchers continue to back this positive trajectory with buy ratings, highlighting the firm's connectivity solutions as an essential enabler for cloud providers engaged in massive capacity expansion. Should investors sell immediately? Or is it worth buying Astera Labs? The Crucial Test Ahead in May The long-term corporate strategy remains firmly focused on growth and market consolidation. Initiatives such as the new UALink platform aim to strengthen...

Automakers near and far are dipping their figurative toes into new frontiers such as artificial intelligence (AI), humanoid robotics, and driverless vehicles. Some automakers, such as Tesla (TSLA 3.25%) are exploring all three areas. For auto investors, owning a company that one day thrives with driverless vehicles, or perhaps vehicles-as-a-service, could be a portfolio-transforming win -- or it could be a disappointment if the company falls short of ambitions. That raises the question: Does Lucid's (LCID 2.28%) recent announcement with Uber Technologies (UBER 1.95%) make the young EV maker a buy now? Lucid's major announcements At Lucid's recent investor day in New York, the young electric vehicle (EV) maker highlighted its strategic near-term plans that included elements of its upcoming midsize platform, its next-generation electric drive unit, and the evolution of its strategic driverless vehicle partnership with Uber. It's really the combination of Lucid's upcoming midsize platform and the partnership with Uber that should have investors intrigued. A brief recap: In January, Lucid, Nuro, Inc. and Uber, unveiled the production intent vehicles to be used in the partnership's global robotaxi service, with limited autonomous on-road testing beginning in the month prior. It's a significant milestone and partnership, to be sure, but delivering this with commercial scale will be a massive challenge for not just this partnership, but the entire industry. For Lucid specifically, the partnership featured a $300 million investment from Uber and called for integrating Nuro's autonomous technology into 20,000 or more Lucid Gravity SUVs for exclusive use with Uber's platform over the next six years. That original partnership has now evolved and investors should take note because it could be the key to unlocking real driverless vehicle scale down the road.

By David Jeans NEW YORK, March 20 (Reuters) - Palantir (PLTR)’s Maven artificial intelligence system will become an official program of record, Deputy Secretary of Defense Steve Feinberg said in a letter to Pentagon leaders, a move that locks in long-term use of Palantir’s weapons-targeting technology across the U.S. military. In the March 9 letter to senior Pentagon leaders and U.S. military commanders, Feinberg said embedding Palantir’s Maven Smart System would provide warfighters “with the latest tools necessary to detect, deter, and dominate our adversaries in all domains”. The decision is expected to go into effect by the close of the current fiscal year, which ends in September, according to the letter, which was reviewed by Reuters and has not been previously reported. Maven is a command-and-control software platform that analyzes battlefield data and identifies targets. It is already the primary AI operating system for the U.S. military, which has carried out thousands of targeted strikes against Iran over the last three weeks. Designating Maven as a program of record will streamline its adoption across all arms of the military and provide stable, long-term funding, Feinberg said. The memo ordered oversight of Maven be moved from the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency to the Pentagon’s Chief Digital Artificial Intelligence Office within 30 days. Future contracting with Palantir will be handled by the Army, the letter said. “It is imperative that we invest now and with focus to deepen the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) across the Joint Force and establish AI-enabled decision-making as the cornerstone of our strategy,” Feinberg wrote. Palantir and the Pentagon did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Palantir rises further at the Pentagon Feinberg’s order is a significant win for Palantir, which has landed a growing stream of contracts with the U.S. government, including a deal announced last summer with the U.S. Army wo...
