It's been nearly a year since CoreWeave (CRWV +1.66%) went public. The company, which rents out computing power and access to cutting-edge chips from Nvidia, has been a fairly hot buy. Although it's nowhere near its high of $187, the stock has still generated gains totaling 86% since it began trading last March. The company's growth rate has been slowing down, but it still more than doubled its revenue in its most recent quarter. Plus, it's eyeing more growth opportunities ahead. With a market cap of around $40 billion, this is a big company, but nowhere near what the tech giants are worth, including the big players in artificial intelligence (AI). Could CoreWeave be an underrated option for AI investors right now? Its growth rate is impressive, but its bottom line isn't On Feb. 26, CoreWeave reported its fourth-quarter and year-end results for 2025. CEO Michael Intrator called it a "defining year" for the business, noting that CoreWeave "became the fastest cloud in history to reach $5 billion in annual revenue." The tech company finished the year with $5.1 billion in revenue, which was an increase of 168% from the previous year, when its top line totaled $1.9 billion. Unfortunately, this didn't lead to an improvement in the bottom line, as CoreWeave incurred an operating loss of $46 million, whereas in the previous year its operating profit was $324 million. And this is even before factoring in interest expense of $1.2 billion, which is due to the company's high debt load (a year ago, its interest expense totaled $361 million).

CoreDesignKEY/iStock via Getty Images By Mike Larson Just how much will surging crude oil prices cost investors - and the global economy? Let’s try to tally up the costs so far... and explore what might happen next. Last week alone, US crude oil futures prices shot up 36%. That was the biggest rise in any week since the benchmark contract began changing hands in 1983. Then Sunday night and this morning, WTI futures soared another 13%-plus to $102.44 before throttling back a bit. Crude hasn’t traded in the triple digits since 2022, so this is a big move. Now let’s look at oil from a historical standpoint. This MoneyShow Chart of the Day (from the Wall Street Journal ) shows inflation-adjusted prices going back to 1970. It only includes trading activity through last Friday, so it doesn’t capture the additional increase we’ve seen in the last 24 hours. But it does make clear that prices remain well below past peaks... so far. Putting Rising Oil in Context: Prices from 1970-Present Day Will things stay that way? Or are they going to get worse? It all depends on how long the effective blockade of shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz lasts. It’s a huge chokepoint for crude oil, liquefied natural gas, and other cargoes - and right now, hardly anything is making it through. Group of Seven nations are discussing the emergency release of petroleum reserves to blunt the bottleneck impacts globally. Plus, US oil and natural gas output has surged in the last several years - helping cushion the increase in energy prices here at home. But as this second MoneyShow Chart of the Day (from Bloomberg) shows, Middle East producers are running out of places to put barrels they pull out of the ground. So, one by one, they’re curtailing production. It’ll take time to get things back to “normal” even if the conflict were to end today - suggesting higher prices will linger for some time. Source: Bloomberg Bottom line: The costs are high. They’re getting higher. And that could have l...

It was a prank that turned deadly, authorities said: a group of teenagers unspooled rolls of toilet paper outside the home of a beloved high school teacher who tripped in the street and was struck by a pickup truck as the pranksters started to drive away. The 40-year-old teacher, Jason Hughes, died after being brought to a hospital late Friday, the Hall County Sheriff’s Office said. The 18-year-old driver of the pickup was arrested on a felony charge of vehicular homicide, and four other teens were charged with misdemeanours. Hughes’ family said he knew and loved the five students involved and urged authorities to drop all charges against them. Advertisement “This is a terrible tragedy, and our family is determined to prevent a separate tragedy from occurring, ruining the lives of these students,” Hughes’ family said in a statement on Monday. “This would be counter to Jason’s lifelong dedication of investing in the lives of these children.” What made Jason so special was the way he did it … He simply loved people well Sean Pender, colleague of Jason Hughes Hughes taught maths and helped coach golf, football and baseball at North Hall High School in Gainesville, about 88km (55 miles) northeast of Atlanta.

England have vowed to double down on their kick-heavy gameplan against France on Saturday despite their drastic decline in recent weeks. It is a move that risks further provoking the anger of their supporters. Steve Borthwick and his side have come under intense scrutiny after last week’s first defeat by Italy and the manner in which they stuck rigidly to their kicking strategy left fans irate. England have kicked the most times and for the most metres of all the Six Nations teams and while it was a tactic that paid dividends last autumn when they were on a 12-match winning run, it is no longer having the desired effect. The 2003 World Cup winner Matt Dawson has warned that relying too heavily on their kicking game in Paris would be a “red flag against England’s coaching ticket”. The Rugby Football Union was compelled to give Borthwick a qualified vote of confidence on Sunday. In his BBC Sport column, Dawson said: “England are never in a million years going to Paris and beating France by deploying the same kick-heavy strategy. If they do, that is a red flag against England’s coaching ticket. It may have worked during the 12-game winning run, but Scotland showed you need more than 40 points to beat France – and that was in Edinburgh.” But the scrum-half Ben Spencer, who was brought into the side against Italy for his box-kicking prowess, has revealed the gameplan is unlikely to change, suggesting England did not kick as much as they should have in the losses to Scotland and Ireland. “Our plan has stayed the same or we haven’t changed our plan too much game to game. We’ve seen results from it so I don’t think we need to change too much,” he said. “We all believe in the plan. We haven’t gone too far away from what we did when we had 12 wins on the spin. “There are loads of ways you can go about it, but if you look at the two defeats we had previous to Italy, both Ireland and Scotland kicked more than us. It is just how you go about it, how you implement it, it is your ...

This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Billionaire investor Leo KoGuan doubled his stake in NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA), acquiring an additional 1 million shares amid heightened market volatility linked to the U.S.-Iran conflict. KoGuan, long known for his large Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) holdings, now controls roughly 2 million shares of Nvidia. He disclosed the follow-up purchase on X, adding to his earlier investment made public just days prior. The move comes as tensions in the Middle East have rattled global markets, with equities, bonds, and commodities experiencing broad declines. In 2026, Nvidia's stock has fallen about 5% year-to-date, while Tesla has slipped nearly 12% through Friday's close. By comparison, the S&P 500 has declined less than 2% over the same period. KoGuan's $350 million investment shows his confidence in Nvidia amid uncertainty, as he said he hoped the move could contribute a little to calm the nervous market. According to analysts, mega purchases within the scale of big buys, such as those of KoGuan, have a tendency to influence how investors feel about geopolitical issues, pushing tech stocks.

Epstein used his ties to Nobel laureate scientists to try to rebuild his image toggle caption JPL-Caltech/NASA, Getty Images and Department of Justice/Collage by Emily Bogle/NPR Some 100 feet below the ocean's surface, Stephen Hawking peeked through the circular porthole of a submarine and saw the brilliant blue tropical water. It was March 2006, and the famous astrophysicist, accompanied by one of his ever-present nurses, sat strapped in his wheelchair, enjoying the view of coral reefs and colorful fish off the coast of the U.S. Virgin Islands. It was his first undersea experience, and he had Jeffrey Epstein to thank for it. toggle caption CERCA/Case Western Reserve University The submarine ride capped a nearly weeklong gathering funded by Epstein. It brought together around 20 of the world's top physicists, including three Nobel laureates and three more who would later receive the prestigious prize. Sponsor Message The "Confronting Gravity" conference was billed as a chance to discuss key issues in fundamental physics and cosmology, and described as a place where participants could "meet, discuss, relax on the beach, and take a trip to the nearby private island retreat of the science philanthropist Jeffrey Epstein." "It was an excellent conference," said Alan Guth, a physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who attended the event. In fact, Epstein would go on to describe it as one of his top five professional achievements. Theoretical physicist Lawrence Krauss, then with Case Western Reserve University, organized the event. He maintained an almost 15-year friendship with Epstein and later retired from Arizona State University in 2019 amid multiple sexual misconduct allegations against him. At ASU, he ran the Origins Project, which was partially funded by Epstein. Krauss has previously denied the sexual misconduct allegations. toggle caption Carolyn Kaster/AP The 2006 Virgin Islands conference illustrates how Epstein used philanthropy to build relati...

100 Drivers Latest in Southern California to Unionize at Amazon LOS ANGELES, March 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Over 100 Amazon drivers at the DAX7 facility in Los Angeles marched on their bosses today, demanding the employer recognize them as members of Teamsters Local 396 and bargain a union contract. The drivers are organizing to address Amazon's low pay, punishing delivery quotas, and dangerous working conditions. International Brotherhood Of Teamsters. (PRNewsFoto/International Brotherhood of Teamsters) "The movement to unionize Amazon grows stronger every day because of courageous workers like the drivers at DAX7," said Randy Korgan, Director of the Teamsters Amazon Division. "Amazon will claim that these drivers don't work for them, but that is a lie. Amazon Teamsters will not rest until they get the respect and contract they have earned." "Nobody sacrifices more and receives less than Amazon workers," said Victor Mineros, Secretary-Treasurer of Local 396 and Teamsters Western Region International Vice President. "These workers break their backs for this multitrillion-dollar company. This is a fight for the future of the logistics industry, and we could not be more excited to welcome DAX7 drivers to the Teamsters." DAX7 is one of Amazon's most important last-mile facilities in the country. The drivers are the latest in Southern California to organize with the Teamsters, joining workers in Victorville, City of Industry, Palmdale, San Bernardino, and Riverside. They join over 10,000 Amazon warehouse workers and drivers nationwide leading the charge to unionize at the e-commerce giant. "Amazon is the richest company on the planet, but we can't even afford to live near our jobs," said Sara Venegas, a three-year driver at the DAX7 facility. "This company pays us next to nothing, offers us no benefits, and then lies that we are not its employees. We are done with their games. We are proud to be joining thousands of other Amazon Teamsters in the toughest union in America...

Despite the changes, in Jarrod Bowen and Matheus Fernandes, West Ham have two game-changers in forward positions, and they’ll be expected to provide invention and counter-attacking threat, likewise Adam Traore. Brentford, meanwhile, will look to Thiago to move about and run in behind if and when there’s space, with the full-backs pushing on to support the wingers, stretch the pitch and sling crosses into the box.

After a strong rally, shares of Palantir (PLTR) have come under pressure in late 2025 and early 2026. The stock has retreated from its record highs due to concerns about extremely high valuations, profit-taking following the earlier surge, and a broader rotation within the technology sector. This shift has seen capital move away from software companies as markets increasingly focus on the rapid emergence of AI agents. As a result, PLTR shares have declined roughly 25% from their 52-week high. While PLTR stock has lost steam, several underlying fundamentals continue to support the company’s outlook. Demand for Palantir’s data analytics and AI platform (AIP) remains strong, while expanding profit margins indicate improving operational efficiency. At the same time, the recent pullback has helped ease some of the valuation pressures that previously concerned investors. Geopolitical developments may provide another potential catalyst for the company. Rising instability in the Middle East could increase demand for advanced analytics and AI capabilities across government and defense sectors. Given Palantir’s established presence in government software and data intelligence systems, heightened defense and security spending could translate into stronger government revenue over time. These factors could limit the likelihood of a significant downside move and suggest that PLTR stock has meaningful upside potential. The Street’s highest price target for PLTR stock is $260, implying more than 65% upside from its recent close of $157.16. Strong Demand Supports PLTR’s Investment Case Strong demand continues to strengthen the investment case for Palantir, and the company projects another year of accelerated growth. Management has guided for revenue between $7.182 billion and $7.198 billion, with the midpoint of $7.19 billion representing approximately 61% year-over-year (YoY) growth. This outlook implies acceleration from the 56% growth recorded in 2025, suggesting that the overall...

Bluesky CEO Jay Graber is stepping down from the top leadership position and transferring to a new role as chief innovation officer, the company announced Monday. Graber, who has helped grow the X and Threads competitor to 43 million users and furthered the development of its underlying AT Protocol, will be replaced by Toni Schneider as interim CEO. Schneider, the former CEO of Automattic and a partner at True Ventures, will serve as interim CEO. Both Automattic and True Ventures are investors in Bluesky. In a blog post announcing the changes, Graber explained that, as a more mature company, Bluesky needs a “seasoned operator focused on scaling and execution.” Graber said she feels better suited to building Bluesky’s technology itself. “I’m most energized by exploring new ideas, bringing a vision to life, and helping people discover their strengths. Transitioning to a more focused role where I can do what brings me energy is my way of putting that belief into practice,” Graber said. The company says its board will search for a permanent chief executive. In the meantime, Schneider’s experience with Automattic, which commercialized WordPress’s open source technology through WordPress.com, positions him to understand the challenges that come with balancing open source tech with the needs of a company to generate a profit. Under Graber, Bluesky has seen remarkable growth at times, particularly after Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter, now X, led to a number of changes to the platform’s product and community. Bluesky has also struggled with moderation issues as it scaled. Some users expected the company to apply a heavier hand, while Bluesky promoted the use of moderation tools that users themselves could manage.
