Key Points An analyst initiated coverage of the rare-earth specialist. He flagged it as a buy. 10 stocks we like better than NioCorp Developments › Specialty mining stock NioCorp Developments (NASDAQ: NB) was able to surmount the hump of Hump Day, closing more than 2% higher in price to contrast favorably with the S&P 500 index's 0.3% decline. A bullish analyst note was an immediate catalyst for the rise. Buy, says bull Freedom Capital Markets' Vitaly Kononov initiated coverage of NioCorp stock that day. He recommends it as a buy, with a price target of $8.70. That's a sturdy 31% higher than the company's most recent closing price. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » Kononov's take on NioCorp is based on several factors, according to reports. A critical one is that the company benefits from top-down U.S. government support, as the Trump administration has prioritized the development of rare-earth mining in the country. The pundit also wrote in his inaugural NioCorp note that the company will also benefit from demand from U.S. industrial companies that require rare-earth elements. Finally, Kononov waxed bullish about the quality of the company's deposits and its production, and said it had signed advantageous offtake contracts (in which a customer commits to buying output from a producer in advance). A rare bird There aren't many rare-earth companies in the world, and only a handful are based in the U.S. This gives NioCorp vast, inherent potential, and on that basis alone, I'd be as optimistic as Kononov. The company certainly feels as if it's operating the right business at the right time in this nation's history. Should you buy stock in NioCorp Developments right now?

At the recent South Korea-China summit, both sides agreed to improve dialogue, rebuild trust and promote regional peace and stability, marking a first step towards a normalisation of relations. While the Beijing meeting produced no concrete agreement for peace on the Korean peninsula, it reaffirmed the peninsula’s stability and peace as a common interest – paving the way for cooperation. The prolonged stalemate over North Korea’s nuclear programme is no longer just a diplomatic impasse. The Korean peninsula stands at a critical juncture that will determine the future of northeast Asia’s security order. Renewed debate in Japan over nuclear options, alongside strengthened US-Japan extended deterrence , has made it increasingly difficult to treat the issue as one confined to Pyongyang. Regional actors are recalculating their strategic assumptions – with implications that extend well beyond the peninsula. Advertisement As sanctions and pressure fail to produce progress on North Korea’s denuclearisation, crisis management has emerged as a more immediate and realistic challenge. North Korea has publicised advances in its nuclear-powered submarine programme, staged provocative military activities near the demilitarised zone and, around the time of the summit, launched ballistic missiles , reinforcing a sense of strategic uncertainty. Seoul’s recent declaration on pursuing a “nuclear-free Korean peninsula” signals a critical turning point. Shifts are also visible in the foreign and security priorities of Washington and Beijing.

New York, Jan 7, 2026, 16:15 (EST) — After-hours Micron shares down about 1.2%, with the day’s range spanning roughly $335 to $346 Company set a Jan. 16 groundbreaking for a planned $100 billion New York “megafab” UBS and Piper Sandler both moved price targets to $400 on tighter memory supply Micron Technology Inc shares were down about 1.2% at $339.45 on Wednesday after trading between $335.10 and $346.24, even as Wall Street pushed price targets higher and the company set a date to break ground on a planned New York factory. The pullback comes as investors crowd into memory and storage names tied to artificial-intelligence spending, where servers need more DRAM — the working memory in computers — and high-bandwidth memory (HBM), a stacked chip used to feed AI processors. Sandisk shares surged 27.6% on Tuesday after Nvidia Chief Executive Jensen Huang highlighted the bottleneck at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), and Micron and other storage peers also climbed, MarketWatch reported. MarketWatch UBS analyst Timothy Arcuri wrote that investors “underappreciate the degree to which AI has fundamentally made memory (DRAM in particular) a more strategic asset,” after meetings with Micron’s top team. UBS raised its price target to $400 from $300 and lifted its earnings per share (EPS) forecasts for 2026 and 2027, pointing to what it called severe supply shortages that leave Micron meeting only about 50% to 75% of key customer demand. Investing Micron said the Jan. 16 event in Onondaga County, New York, will mark the start of construction on what it called a $100 billion project — a “megafab,” or sprawling semiconductor plant — with up to four fabrication plants. Chief executive Sanjay Mehrotra called the groundbreaking “a pivotal moment for Micron and the United States,” in the company statement. Micron Technology Piper Sandler also raised its price target to $400 from $275 and kept an Overweight rating, saying supply for calendar 2026 is “effectively sold out, with l...

With cities and towns from Adelaide to Melbourne sweltering through Australia’s worst heatwave in years, it seems the only thing that’s cooling across the nation is inflation. Monthly figures came in lower than expected, boosting the case for a rate hold. In big news overnight, BlueScope Steel rejected the latest takeover bid from US steelmaker Steel Dynamics, while the Trump administration has moved to seize two more sanctioned oil tankers as part of its plans to control Venezuela’s energy resources. - Ben Westcott, Asia Agriculture Reporter What’s happening now BlueScope Steel has rejected the latest takeover approach from US steelmaker Steel Dynamics, arguing the $8.8 billion joint offer made with Australian conglomerate SGH “very significantly” undervalued its assets. Chair Jane McAloon said in a statement that the proposal attempted to take BlueScope from its shareholders “on the cheap.” Good news for homeowners — Australia’s core inflation slowed in November, supporting the case for the Reserve Bank to keep interest rates unchanged for now as it assesses the impact of earlier policy easing. The closely-watched trimmed mean gauge advanced 3.2% from a year ago, easing from 3.3%, while headline CPI rose 3.4%, slower than a forecast 3.6% increase. The New Zealand High Court has issued an urgent injunction barring the publication of stolen medical data after hackers accessed about 430,000 private patient documents held on a health portal used by more than a third of the country’s population. Rare earth-related shares gained in Australia and across the Asia-Pacific region after China imposed a ban on exports of military-use items to Japan, a move with the potential to squeeze supply chains.

AUDUBON, Pa., Jan. 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Globus Medical, Inc. (NYSE: GMED), a leading musculoskeletal solutions company, today announced preliminary unaudited sales results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025. The company anticipates fourth quarter 2025 sales of approximately $823.2 million, an increase of 25.2 percent over the fourth quarter 2024 on an as-reported basis. Full year 2025 sales are expected to be approximately $2.936 billion, an increase of 16.5 percent over the prior year on an as-reported basis. “We’re thrilled with our preliminary Q4 results, capping off a strong finish to 2025,” commented Keith Pfeil, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Globus closed 2025 with strong momentum, delivering meaningful revenue growth across the business, while advancing operational priorities and integrating the Nevro acquisition. Fourth quarter results reflected the continued trend of growth and market share gains within US Spine, while Enabling Technologies delivered its best quarterly revenue performance to date. We look to 2026 with confidence, remaining focused on driving innovation and operational excellence, introducing a robust pipeline of new products, maintaining disciplined investment, and executing our strategy of sustained, profitable growth.” “Our fourth quarter results demonstrated above market growth as well as continued success in the integration of the NuVasive and Nevro acquisitions,” commented Kyle Kline, Chief Financial Officer. “Excluding the impact of Nevro sales in the fourth quarter, total Globus base business revenue was $723.3 million, an increase of 10.0 percent over the prior year fourth quarter, led by our US Spine business. Looking ahead to 2026, we aim to build upon the successes of the past year, as we drive above market growth and generate value for our shareholders.” The Company established its full year 2026 revenue guidance range of $3.18 billion to $3.22 billion and fully diluted non-GAAP earnin...

Stablecoin Titan Tether Wants Gold To Be Used For Everyday Payments—Here's How Authored by André Beganski via decrypt.co , In brief Tether introduced the term Scudo on Tuesday to represent 1/1,000th of a troy ounce of gold. The stablecoin issuer thinks the term could bolster gold’s use in payments. Tether issues a gold-backed token, XAUT, and holds nearly $17 billion worth of gold. Tether moved to establish a new unit of account for gold on Tuesday , as the stablecoin industry leader argued that transactions denominated in “ Scudo ” could simplify the precious metal’s use in everyday payments. Under the stablecoin issuer’s definition, one Scudo would equate to one-thousandth of a troy ounce of gold —as well as its XAUT token, which is valued at $2.3 billion, according to CoinGecko . The token’s market cap has nearly quadrupled over the past year. In a blog post , Tether acknowledged that demand for gold has been bolstered worldwide by “persistent inflation concerns, heightened interest-rate uncertainty, record central bank purchases, and growing demand for safe-haven assets.” Although a lion’s share of the firm’s products are pegged to the U.S. dollar, it described those factors as an “opportunity to restore gold” to its former status: a universally accepted medium of exchange that can’t be devalued by a government’s ability to print money. The company added that its wallet developer kit can help support XAUT on virtually any device. Tether noted that “satoshi” is already used in a similar way to Scudo, as a way to refer to the smallest unit of Bitcoin, or one hundred-millionth of a Bitcoin . One satoshi is currently worth around $0.001, while one Scudo would be worth roughly $4.48. Tether’s term dates back to the 16th century, more than 400 years before the first version of the internet was developed. Scudo was used to describe a variety of coins in Italy, likely hammered from metal blanks. The term was derived from the Latin word for shield. Introducing Scudo. A n...

NEW YORK, Jan 7, 2026, 15:47 EST — Regular session Tesla, Inc. shares were little changed on Wednesday, up 0.4% at $434.75 in afternoon trading, as investors weighed fresh signs of weakness in Europe against a renewed burst of interest in autonomous-driving tech.

NEW YORK, Jan 7, 2026, 15:47 EST — Regular session Tesla, Inc. shares were little changed on Wednesday, up 0.4% at $434.75 in afternoon trading, as investors weighed fresh signs of weakness in Europe against a renewed burst of interest in autonomous-driving tech. The stock has traded between $431.66 and $438.35 so far in the session. Germany’s road traffic agency KBA said Tesla sold 2,032 cars in December, down 48% from a year earlier, while its 2025 registrations in the country fell 48.4% to 19,390 units. The data underscored how quickly the U.S. automaker is losing ground in Europe even as overall electric-vehicle registrations in Germany rose 43.2% in 2025, and BYD’s December sales jumped more than 12-fold to 4,109 vehicles. Reuters The timing matters because Tesla heads into its next earnings report with investors looking for a clearer read on demand, pricing and margins after a softer year for deliveries. Tesla said it delivered 418,227 vehicles in the fourth quarter and 1,636,129 in 2025, and it scheduled its fourth-quarter results and webcast for Jan. 28 after market close. Tesla Investor Relations The stock’s recent swings have also tracked the market’s obsession with self-driving and robotics — a big part of the premium some investors put on Tesla beyond its car business. Nvidia on Jan. 5 rolled out “Alpamayo,” a set of open-source autonomous-driving models and tools, with CEO Jensen Huang calling it “the ChatGPT moment for physical AI,” while Tesla shares fell 4.14% on Tuesday. NVIDIA Newsroom Tesla CEO Elon Musk tried to play down the competitive threat, writing on social media: “I’m not losing any sleep about this,” MarketWatch reported. He said any real pressure would take years to show up as carmakers redesign vehicles around cameras and computing hardware. MarketWatch Competition is also building around humanoid robots, another area Musk has pitched as a long-term growth driver. Mobileye said it would buy humanoid robotics startup Mentee Robotics for ...

On Wednesday, however, the stock gave back all those gains and more, closing the day down 9.6%. Why? Globalstar, global worries In its note yesterday, Clear Street argued Globalstar stock looks "compelling" because its Apple contract makes it "de-risked," while the company has upside from selling its services to the government, as TheFly.com relates. A note from Scotiabank today, however, highlights other risks to Globalstar that Clear Street may have overlooked. Specifically, in the course of downgrading shares of AST SpaceMobile (ASTS 12.08%), Scotiabank pointed out the wide disparity in capabilities between AST and SpaceX's Starlink satellite communications network, which is launching new satellites -- many equipped for direct-to-cell service -- at the rate of more than 3,000 per year. That's a lot more than AST's mere six satellites in orbit -- but also quite a bit more than the two dozen satellites that Globalstar possesses.

The high-profile private lawyer for Nick Reiner was granted a request to be removed from his case Wednesday, but later told reporters that according to California law his client is not guilty of murder in the killing of his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. “Circumstances beyond our control and more importantly circumstances beyond Nick’s control have dictated that, sadly, it’s made it impossible to continue our representation of Nick,” lawyer Alan Jackson said as he stood with his team outside a Los Angeles courthouse. But, Jackson added, after weeks of investigation, “what we’ve learned, and you can take this to the bank, is that pursuant to the laws of this state, pursuant to the law of California, Nick Reiner is not guilty of murder. Print that.” Advertisement Jackson would not specify what he meant and took no questions at the brief news conference. He spoke after a hearing where Nick Reiner was supposed to be arraigned and enter a plea to two charges of first-degree murder. Instead, after meeting with the Judge Theresa McGonigle in chambers, Jackson was replaced by a public defender and Reiner’s plea hearing was postponed to February 23. Nick Reiner attends the Los Angeles premiere of “Spinal Tap II: The End Continues” in September 2025.

Merck, Bristol Myers Squibb, and Pfizer have P/E ratios of 14, 18, and 15, respectively. 10 stocks we like better than Bristol Myers Squibb › Over short periods, Wall Street is largely driven by emotions. When there's a compelling story, such as the emergence of GLP-1 weight loss drugs in the pharmaceutical sector, investors tend to become overly excited. Eli Lilly's (NYSE: LLY) industry-leading GLP-1 drugs have netted it a price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) of 53. Other well-respected drugmakers, meanwhile, have been left to languish. This is why contrarian investors should take a look at Merck (NYSE: MRK), Bristol Myers Squibb (NYSE: BMY), and Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) today. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » Far below average valuation Eli Lilly's 53 P/E ratio is huge. The stock price advance that led to that valuation has pushed the dividend yield down to a shockingly low 0.6%. The average P/E for the drug sector is roughly 30, with an average yield of around 1.3%. From a valuation perspective, it's pretty clear that investors are affording Eli Lilly a premium price. There are other large and historically successful drugmakers that aren't trading at a premium. For example, Merck's P/E ratio is 14, and its dividend yield is 3.2%. Bristol Myers Squibb's P/E is 18, and its yield is 4.7%. And Pfizer's P/E ratio is 15 while its yield is 6.8%. If you look at these valuations, these three drugmakers appear to be trading at a discount. There are good reasons for the relatively low valuations being afforded to Merck, Bristol Myers Squibb, and Pfizer. However, these are companies that have consistently proven over time that they can discover, develop, and market innovative drugs. The problem is that ...

UK Athletics’ chief executive, Jack Buckner, has described Reece Prescod’s decision to participate in the controversial Enhanced Games as “appalling”. Former Great Britain sprinter Prescod gave a statement to the Times saying he is “very excited” to be joining the sprinting field of the event. The Enhanced Games allows the use of performance-enhancing substances and permits athletes to take substances approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), under strict supervision. In a statement, former Olympic long-distance runner Buckner said: “As a former athlete, I find this particularly appalling. Those of us who have competed know what it takes to succeed the right way – through talent, dedication, and respect for the rules. To see a British athlete aligning themselves with an event that celebrates the use of performance-enhancing drugs is profoundly disappointing.” In September 2025, the Olympic silver swimming medallist Ben Proud announced that he would be participating in the event, making him the first British athlete to join. Prescod won a silver medal at the 2018 European Championships and competed at Tokyo 2020 before announcing his retirement in August last year. The statement from UK Athletics added: “UK Athletics is disappointed by reports that former Great Britain sprinter Reece Prescod intends to take part in the so-called Enhanced Games. “UKA does not recognise the Enhanced Games as a legitimate sporting competition. Any event that promotes or permits the use of harmful substances with the aim of pushing the human body to its limit for short-term goals is not sport as we value it. “This concept fundamentally undermines the integrity of competition, places athletes’ health and welfare at serious risk, and is incompatible with the principles of clean sport that underpin athletics in the UK and worldwide. The very reason clean sport exists is because those involved saw the risks that resulted from athletes taking substances that led to sev...
