Mostly, the world has been watching the price of oil skyrocket amid the war in Iran and the de facto closure of the Strait of Hormuz. But there’s more than just oil that comes out of the region. Qatar is home to the world’s largest natural gas field, and for now, it’s been almost completely cut off from the rest of the world.

ATLANTA, March 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Canto , the leader in AI-powered digital asset management, today announced continued capability expansion of DAM for Products , its platform for brands that manage, launch, and sell physical goods. As product content complexity accelerates across ecommerce, social marketplaces, and retail channels, Canto is deepening its investment in the tools and integrations that help teams create, manage, and activate product content at scale—including new Shopify and Amazon integrations. Marketing, ecommerce, and creative teams waste too much time chasing down assets, correcting channel inconsistencies, and manually pushing updates across storefronts. DAM for Products eliminates that. Built on Canto's leading digital asset management platform, it connects product images, SKUs, and attributes in one place — and activates them across every channel automatically. “Getting product content right across every channel is one of the hardest operational challenges brands face, and the cost of inconsistency compounds the more channels you add,” said Alan Beiagi, Chief Product and Technology Officer, Canto. “DAM for Products gives brands the infrastructure to move faster without sacrificing accuracy or consistency, and our expanding integrations make those benefits even stronger.” New integrations with Shopify and Amazon enable brands to synchronize product assets and metadata from Canto directly into their storefronts, eliminating manual uploading and ensuring that every product page reflects current and brand-approved content. Canto Media Publisher , part of DAM for Products, ensures approved assets are delivered via CDN at the speed and scale commerce requires. Canto is also expanding its partner ecosystem to support additional commerce endpoints, with new syndication partnerships underway to help customers distribute product ...

Samsung Electronics Co. agreed to supply and collaborate with Advanced Micro Devices Inc. on next-generation AI memory and computing technologies. Under a preliminary agreement, Samsung will provide next-generation high-bandwidth memory, HBM4, as the primary supplier for AMD’s MI455X accelerators used in corporate data centers, the companies said in a joint statement Wednesday. Samsung will also supply DDR5 memory chips for AMD’s Helios system based on the MI455X and the new Venice central processing unit design, according to the agreement signed by AMD Chief Executive Officer Lisa Su and Samsung co-CEO Jun Young-hyun in Pyeongtaek, south of Seoul. The two companies also agreed to discuss opportunities for foundry partnership. AMD is widely regarded as Nvidia Corp. ’s closest rival in chips for developing and running artificial intelligence software. AMD has built a new multibillion-dollar AI business in recent years, boosting its revenue and earnings. Investors who have bid up its stock are looking for clearer signs it can capture a larger share of the tens of billions of dollars in orders dominated by Nvidia.

The number of cases of meningitis being investigated by the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) in Kent has risen to 20, up from 15 previously, the body said on Wednesday. Thousands of students in Kent are to be offered vaccines in the coming days as health chiefs deal with an “unprecedented” and “explosive” outbreak of meningitis. The number of cases is expected to rise because the incubation period for the infection – to when symptoms appear – is two to 14 days. The outbreak is being viewed by experts as unprecedented owing to the high number of cases appearing in such a short space of time.

Taken individually, Wall Street price targets aren't worth much in terms of accuracy. I would describe many of them as closer to clickbait fluff. But when multiple analysts independently value a stock 30% to 100% above its current price, it's worth asking what they see that the broader market doesn't. Here are three stocks I think are strong buys based on some of their ratings. If you have $3,000 ...
Taken individually, Wall Street price targets aren't worth much in terms of accuracy. I would describe many of them as closer to clickbait fluff. But when multiple analysts independently value a stock 30% to 100% above its current price, it's worth asking what they see that the broader market doesn't. Here are three stocks I think are strong buys based on some of their ratings. If you have $3,000 available to invest that isn't needed for monthly bills or to pay down short-term debt, you might want to give these three stocks a closer look. 1. Upstart Upstart's (UPST +0.18%) AI underwriting models evaluate borrowers for its clients, deciding on their creditworthiness quickly but thoroughly, and sometimes make approvals that traditional credit scores miss. And the AI is getting better with every loan it evaluates. The stock trades around $28 a share. The median analyst target is $50, implying 76% potential upside over the next 12 months or so. Analysts at Citigroup have a target of $80. Expand NASDAQ : UPST Upstart Today's Change ( 0.18 %) $ 0.05 Current Price $ 27.84 Key Data Points Market Cap $2.7B Day's Range $ 27.53 - $ 29.32 52wk Range $ 25.60 - $ 87.30 Volume 124K Avg Vol 5.2M Gross Margin 97.62 % The company's recent numbers explain the analysts' bullishness. Revenue has been accelerating as banks and credit unions return to the platform after the 2023 pullback. Its trailing 12-month revenue is up 64% year over year. Upstart's models now price auto loans, home equity lines, and small-dollar personal loans. These are all markets where incumbents rely on decades-old FICO logic. The AI conversion rate advantage is structural: Upstart approves more borrowers but still generates lower default rates than traditional underwriting. Every loan processed makes the models better, and the data moat deepens. The stock got crushed during the interest rate-hiking cycle because loan volume evaporated. Rates are now declining, and loan volume is recovering. The market is pricing...
