SSR Mining (SSRM 3.69%) stock declined 3.4% through 12:45 p.m. ET Wednesday after gold prices took another leg lower on inflation fears. This morning, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 2.4% for a second straight month in February. These two things are connected. Gold and silver and inflation There's a war in the Mideast, and it may last a while. Investors view precious metals like gold and silver as safe havens in times of conflict, and SSR mines both (along with lead, zinc, and copper). Silver prices soared 2.5% in the aftermath of the attacks on Iran, and gold prices leapt 2.6%. War can also be inflationary, though, especially when it restricts oil supplies and drives up fuel prices. So while CPI held steady in February (still above the Fed's 2% inflation target), the worry is that the March data will show a sharp rise in inflation. If this happens, investors may sell precious metals (which don't pay interest) and buy bonds instead (which do pay interest, and pay more interest as inflation rises). This worry has gold sinking 1.1% (to $5,183 an ounce) today, and silver down 5.3% at $84.85.

Why? Recall that one week ago, SSR agreed to cash out its stake in its Turkish gold mine for $1.5 billion. This limits the stock's exposure to falling gold prices (if they do fall) -- while guaranteeing a $1.5 billion windfall today. When you consider that SSR costs less than 17x trailing earnings and barely 8x forward earnings, SSR looks to me like a good, cheap way to invest in gold in uncertain times.

Key Points The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported 2.4% CPI growth in February -- and March inflation could be worse. Gold prices often fall when inflation runs hot.

Air Taxis Set For Summer Trials In 26 States Under Trump Admin's Pilot Program Authored by Rob Sabo via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) announced on March 9 that it had selected eight out of 30 proposals to participate in its Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) and Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) Integration Pilot Program (eIPP). A Joby Aviation's all-electric air taxi lands after performing a flight demonstration during a media presentation in Dubai on Feb. 25, 2026. Giuseppe Cacace/AFP via Getty Images The eight projects span work across 26 states and include a range of public entities and private companies developing operational concepts in urban and regional air taxi and transportation services, cargo and logistics, emergency medical response, autonomous flight, and energy transportation . Data compiled from the various projects will help the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) better understand the challenges associated with safely and efficiently integrating these new types of aircraft into the National Airspace System. “The program will provide valuable operational experience that will inform the standards needed to enable safe Advanced Air Mobility operations,” said Chris Rocheleau, FAA deputy administrator. The DOT said the eight proposals were selected based on their ability to quickly integrate into commercial operations, as well as overall manufacturer experience and the strength of existing public, private, and academic partnerships. “ Congratulations to the great American innovators behind each of these exciting pilot programs ,” Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said. “Working together, we will ensure America leads the way in safely leveraging next-gen aircraft to radically redefine personal travel, regional transportation, cargo logistics, emergency medicine, and so much more.” Initial operations under the program umbrella are expected to begin this summer, the DOT said.

The Walt Disney Company (DIS 0.25%) has long been a touchstone of pop culture in the U.S. and around the world. For more than 100 years, the company has been the go-to for audiences, supplying generations of fans with animation, movies, cable and broadcast television, theme parks, cruise ships, merchandise, and more. In fact, for years, the company has held the title of world's largest media company. In a bit of bittersweet news, reports suggest the company has relinquished its crown. Long live the king Analysts at MoffettNathanson have crunched the numbers and concluded that Alphabet's (GOOGL +0.53%) (GOOG +0.36%) YouTube has become the world's largest media company by revenue, but those claims require a bit of background and context. In 2025, Disney reported total revenue of $94.4 billion.

pingingz/iStock via Getty Images In today's article, I will highlight some of the growing downsides to the massive surge of tech spending connected to the AI infrastructure buildout happening across the country right now. NVDA Stock Chart (Seeking Alpha) These trends are important to monitor for prudent investors. The majority of gains in the market from 2023 to 2025 came from the Magnificent Seven, who were riding the wave of the AI Revolution. NVIDIA Corporation ( NVDA ) rose roughly 11-fold over that time to achieve a market cap higher than the annual GDPs of either the U.K. or France. FactSet, Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research The seven tech titans benefited from passive investing, given that more than half of all trading volume these days comes via Index ETFs. In addition, almost all the earnings growth from the S&P 500 over these three years came from the Mag 7, which can be seen above. However, there are some downsides to massive increases in AI-driven tech spending. This article will cover the most notable of these. Masking Economic Weakness The four biggest hyperscalers, Amazon ( AMZN ), Meta Platforms ( META ), Alphabet ( GOOG ), and Microsoft ( MSFT ), plan to spend more than $650 billion on combined capex in FY2026. This is up substantially from the just over $350 billion these four members of the Mag 7 spent in FY2025. Bloomberg, Carson Investment Research - February 2026 This spending will be the primary engine of GDP growth (see above) in 2026. However, this headline strength is masking economic weakness throughout most of the rest of the economy. Job growth has flatlined, and consumer loan and CRE debt delinquencies are increasing at an increasing pace. New York Fed, Equifax In addition, inflation was sticky before the recent surge of oil prices as the result of the conflict in Iran. The housing market remains moribund, as I highlighted in an article on Tuesday. Consumer sentiment also remains in the tank. And robust tech spending can mask eco...

Nebius Group (NBIS) is a leading AI infrastructure company. The rapidly growing company provides the heavy-duty hardware and software infrastructure that ‘hyperscalers’ require to build complex AI models. Nebius Scores Landmark NVIDIA Investment Tuesday, Nebius announced a deal with the artificial intelligence leader, NVIDIA (NVDA). As part of the deal, NVIDIA will invest $2 billion directly into Nebius, marking one of its largest investments in the “neocloud” business to date. The details of the NBIS/NVDA deal include: · Infrastructure Support: The primary goal of the investment is to help Nebius scale its compute capacity.With the $2 billion NVDA investment, NBIS will be able to deploy a massive 5 gigawatts (GW) of NVIDIA-powered compute capacity by the end of the decade. · International Expansion: Although most of NBIS’s business comes from the United States, the NVDA investment will help the Netherlands-based company to build multiple AI factories globally. · Technical Collaboration: As part of the agreement, the two companies will work together on AI factory design. · Ushering in the Agentic AI Revolution: Roughly a year ago, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang correctly predicted that agentic AI would become the next wave of the AI revolution. Unlike generative AI chatbots, agentic AI agents work autonomously and can conduct human-like tasks 24/7. As detailed in the deal, the two AI powerhouses will collaborate to create a best-in-class inference and agentic AI stack. · Access to NVIDIA Products: Finally, because NVIDIA has the best AI technology (by leaps and bounds), its products are often sold out instantly. For Nebius, the real prize is early access to “Rubin”, NVIDIA’s next-generation platform. Nebius: Big Tech Deals Cement its Market Leadership Over the past few months, the market has spoken loudly and clearly.

(RTTNews) - After reporting slightly above average demand for this month's three-year note auction on Monday, the Treasury Department on Tuesday revealed this month's auction of $34 billion worth of ten-year notes attracted below average demand. The ten-year note auction drew a high yield of 2.720 percent and a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.43. The Treasury also sold $34 billion worth of ten-year notes last month, drawing a high yield of 1.920 percent and a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.47. The bid-to-cover ratio is a measure of demand that indicates the amount of bids for each dollar worth of securities being sold. The ten previous ten-year note auctions had an average bid-to-cover ratio of 2.52. The Treasury is due to announce the results of this month's auction of $20 billion worth of thirty-year bonds on Wednesday.

TrongNguyen/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Back in September 2025, I wrote a bullish article on lululemon athletica ( LULU ) when it was trading for around $163. This stock jumped to about $220 per share in December 2025, but it has given up most of those gains in the past couple of months. Even though this stock is well off the highs of December 2025, it is still up about 4% since my article was published, slightly outperforming the S&P 500 Index ( SPY )'s gain of around 3%. Given the recent share price pullback and an upcoming earnings release, I wanted to take an updated look: The Chart As shown below, this stock is trading for about half the level it held in June 2025. This stock is trading well below the 50-day moving average, around $188, and the 200-day moving average, near $200. As this chart also shows, this stock found support multiple times last Fall in the $160 range, which is where it is trading now. StockCharts.com Q4 Earnings Preview lululemon is expected to announce Q4 earnings on March 17th, after the market closes. According to Earnings Whispers , the consensus earnings estimates call for $4.74 per share in earnings for Q4, with revenues expected to reach $3.6 billion. Despite some potential risks, I like the setup going into earnings as the stock has pulled back and could therefore be set for a relief rally post-earnings. It's worth pointing out that lululemon beat on earnings when it released Q3 results. Of course, several factors could impact the stock's price action after the earnings release, including guidance. On January 12, the company updated its guidance . Based on strong holiday sales, this company said it expected Q4 net revenue and diluted earnings per share to be at the high end of the previously guided ranges, which called for revenues of $3.5 to $3.585 billion and earnings per share of $4.66 to $4.76. The company made no change to previous guidance for gross margin, selling, general and administrative expenses, or the effective t...

Without going too deep into the technology, Bloom Energy (BE +3.12%) makes solid-oxide systems that generate on-site electricity. This fact positions the company incredibly well to capitalize on the massive spending boom driving the development of artificial intelligence (AI). AI consumes a large amount of electricity, and utilities are struggling to meet demand. But does this fact make Bloom Energy a buy, sell, or hold in 2026? Buy Bloom Energy The reason to buy Bloom Energy in 2026 is that the company appears to be at an important inflection point. The main driver is its ability to deliver reliable power in remote locations and to keep the lights on when the grid goes down. It is already working with major corporate customers, such as Walmart (WMT 1.10%), and major data center customers, such as Amazon (AMZN 1.08%). However, it also has partnerships to support future demand with companies like Brookfield Asset Management (BAM 1.66%) and American Electric Power (AEP 0.98%). If you think the AI build-out will last for years, buying Bloom Energy is a way to take advantage of that spending, since it will drive years of rising electricity demand. Sell Bloom Energy The problem with Bloom Energy's stock is that investors are well aware of the opportunities ahead. The shares have risen more than 450% over the past year. That's a massive move in a very short period of time. The company's bottom line is in the red under GAAP, but if you use the company's adjusted earnings in 2025, the stock advance has pushed the price-to-earnings ratio up to 165x. That's a shockingly high number. Meanwhile, the price-to-sale ratio is 16x versus a five-year average of 3x.

Meta disabled more than 150,000 accounts and Thai police arrested 21 people in a sweeping international crackdown on south-east Asian criminal scam centers that targeted people around the world, the social media company said Wednesday. The operation was led by Thailand’s Royal Thai police anti-cyber scam center, alongside the FBI and the US justice department’s scam center strike force, with Meta investigators acting on intelligence shared in real time by law enforcement. Alongside the enforcement action, Meta announced a series of new protective tools, including alerts on Facebook for suspicious friend requests and a WhatsApp warning system to flag potentially fraudulent device-linking attempts. View image in fullscreen Meta said it would expand its scam detection tools for Facebook Messenger. Photograph: Courtesy of Meta One of Meta’s tools aims to detect when a potential Facebook friend shows signs of falsifying details about their profile – like, for example, an account operating out of a different country than the one stated in the profile. The tool provides users details on the account, highlighting potential issues, such as a lack of mutual friends or that the account was recently created, and gives options to either block or report it for inauthentic activity. Meta’s WhatsApp warning system intends to detect scammers trying to get users to connect their WhatsApp numbers to a device that is not their own, thereby gaining access to their accounts. A pop-up will appear warning about linking the device and suggesting the activity might be a scam. The company also stated that it expanded its scam detection for Facebook Messenger, offering users to send chats such as unsolicited job offers for an AI review to determine their authenticity. Online scam networks – many operating out of compounds in Cambodia, Myanmar and Laos – have grown increasingly sophisticated in recent years, running what authorities describe as full-scale criminal business operations designed t...

Il Etait Temps powered over the line in the Queen Mother Champion Chase to earn trainer Willie Mullins his third win of day two at Cheltenham Festival. Majborough was the odds-on favourite to claim victory in the big race of the day but a poor jumping display made it an impossible victory. A mistake at the final fence almost cost Il Etait Temps the win, but jockey Paul Townend steered him over the line at the Festival's first Ladies Day in five years. "There was a lot of work put into this horse after Ascot so I have a lot of people to thank," Townend told ITV Racing. "It shows how tough this lad is. He's such a courageous horse again today. He was flat as a pan everywhere. "I wasn't going to force him but he just found his rhythm." Mullins told BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra: "Out of the corner of my eye I could see Paul Townend thinking 'now we have a horse race'. "He started to get confident and he planned his move around the last bend." Libberty Hunter, priced at 50-1, and Sir Alex Ferguson's horse, L'eau Du Sud, finished third. The first winner of the day for Mullins came in the opening race with 11-1 shot King Rasko Grey powering over the finish line. Act of Innocence, ridden by Nico de Boinville, followed up in second. Mullins was "disappointed" with his horses in Tuesday's Supreme Hurdle, but King Rasko Grey's "form worked out". He told BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra: "We were all disappointed with our horses in the Supreme, but his form worked out. The day we bought him from the sales, he looked like a really smooth mover.

hapabapa/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Or acle Corporation ( ORCL ) re mains an interesting case to gauge the health of the AI markets. Being more leveraged and smaller than some of its major peers, with core businesses being smaller in terms of profitability to fund a build-out, concerns arrived here first last year. Investors and the market at large were concerned about potential AI overspending and the capital spending spree, hitting the stock. This makes remarks about the outlook key, as the future is far from rosy, and thus the third-quarter earnings report was much anticipated. Currently, expectations have been softer already, this being a $150 stock going into the earnings report. This is down meaningfully from levels around the $200 mark in December when the second quarter results were released, as I concluded that AI and debt concerns (areas we cover in detail at Value In Corporate Events ). That was driven by huge capital investment requirements, and while remaining performance obligations boomed, these were ordered by lower-creditworthy customers, with little immediate revenues or margins at Oracle to show for it. That's changing for the better for third-quarter earnings results, which, together with peak capital spending seemingly behind and the revenue guidance being hiked, makes it seem like the worst might be behind. Database Business Goes AI Oracle used to be a pretty stable and modestly growing cloud and database business, one having grown sales by a cumulative 50% to about $60 billion over the past decade. These were steady businesses, with solid cash flow generation and margins, being of low capital intensity. Frankly, Oracle was quite aggressive in buybacks, reducing the share count by a massive percentage, at the expense of running up quite some debt. The AI part of this was first really seen in fiscal year 2025. An 8% increase in full-year sales to $57 billion looked reasonable, on which GAAP earnings of $12 billion were reported. However, ...
