Archer Aviation (NYSE: ACHR) just delivered one of its most important updates yet -- and on the surface, it looks like a major win. In its latest earnings release, the company announced that it has achieved 100% Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) acceptance of its "Means of Compliance" for the Midnightaircraft. That might sound technical, but it's essentially a critical milestone toward full certification, the gatekeeper for launching commercial flying taxi services. For a company built on the promise of electric air taxis, this milestone matters. It signals that Archer is closely aligning with regulators on the approval of those aircraft. But investors shouldn't stop there. Because while this milestone strengthens the story, it also sharpens the real question: Can Archer execute from here? Continue reading

Company says ‘sustained outperformance’ merited pay rise as it ups profit guidance by £8m for the year to January 2027 Business live – latest updates The Next chief executive, Simon Wolfson, took home more than £7m last year, his highest ever pay package, and could be handed up to £9.27m this year after the retailer announced plans to increase his basic salary and bonuses. The listed company said it was increasing its pay deal for the long-term leader of the fashion and homewares retailer, which now controls a string of brands in the UK including Gap, Victoria’s Secret, Cath Kidston, Reiss and FatFace, as his remuneration was 30% below the average for FTSE 100 bosses.

Arxis Inc. shares surged 36% in its trading debut, after the company raised $1.13 billion in an upsized initial public offering. Shares of the Arcline Investment Management -backed company, which makes electronic and mechanical parts for aerospace and defense firms, opened at $38 each on Thursday in New York, above the IPO price of $28 apiece.

Arxis sold 40.5 million shares, up from the 37.7 million shares it had marketed, at the top of the $25 to $28 range. As defense budgets rise, Arxis’ offering aligns with growing investor interest in defense spending. In the US, the Trump administration is expected to prioritize new contractors as it bolsters and modernizes its missile munitions stockpile. Defense and space represent Arxis’ largest end market, accounting for approximately 47% of revenue for 2025, according to its filings. The commercial aerospace segment accounts for about 23% of revenue in the same period.

Welcome to Bloomberg’s Texas Edition — covering all the industries and people driving America’s second-largest economy, from finance and oil to tech and sports. Join us each week for an inside look at Texas through a Bloomberg lens. Sign up here if you’re not already on the list. Texas Pacific Land is a quiet company when it comes to generating headlines. So that’s why this event was remarkable: The stock plunged 16% the other day — the most in the S&P 500. The shock move followed the death of Murray Stahl , the CEO of Texas Pacific’s largest shareholder, Horizon Kinetics — and the man credited with a long-in-the-making revival for the Dallas-based company. Texas Pacific traces its roots to the 19th-century boom in railroad construction, when it was founded to repay bondholders in the now-long-defunct Texas & Pacific Railway Co. Its assets: Vast tracts of West Texas land. Permian Basin oil-and-gas drillers eventually flocked there, as did bitcoin miners and renewable energy projects. And while Stahl clashed with Texas Pacific over governance in recent years, CEO Ty Glover praised him for believing in the stock when others didn’t. Stahl’s vision proved incredibly lucrative for long-term holders. Texas Pacific is up more than 65,000% in the past 30 years. At $29 billion, Texas Pacific’s market value is almost four times as large as American Airlines’ (and more on that below). The Fine Line The NHL playoffs begin this weekend , and the Dallas Stars head to the postseason for the fifth year in a row. No Stanley Cup, but the team has reached the past three Western Conference finals. So let’s talk private equity. “Sports are a real spice for people to look to invest,” CEO Brad Alberts said in an interview in the Dallas bureau. Interest from PE firms and the rising popularity of live sports are poised to extend an advance in National Hockey League team valuations after years of strong gains, according to Alberts, who became CEO in 2020 during his second stint with the Star...

nndanko/iStock via Getty Images Exelixis ( EXEL ) is not a new ticker to me; in fact, it has been in the Compounding Healthcare “Bioreactor” Growth Portfolio for years. Yet, I’ve never formally covered the company with a Seeking Alpha premium article. This wasn’t due to a lack of conviction in the company's performance or outlook. It was primarily a result of the company being so steady with CABOMETYX that the ticker didn’t always need constant analysis. However, I believe the status quo is evolving after reading a recent conference transcript that suggests Zanzalintinib could have blockbuster potential and become a second backbone TKI for Exelixis. Admittedly, I was initially concerned that zanzalintinib would essentially replace CABOMETYX and end up cannibalizing its revenue. However, a deeper analysis showed that although CABOMETYX and zanzalintinib are similar oncology drugs, it is possible that they can coexist because they can be deployed in different lines and therapy combinations. It looks as if it is possible that CABOMETYX could remain the durable cash generator, while zanzalintinib can be the next big growth driver for the 2030s. As a result, I’m looking to add EXEL to my high-priority watch list as we start to head towards the second half of 2026. I intend to provide a brief background on Exelixis and review their recent performance. Then, I will discuss why I believe CABOMETYX and Zanzalintinib can cohabit with different roles in the company’s portfolio. In addition, I will point out some downside risks that investors should consider when managing their EXEL position. Finally, I take a look at the Daily Chart to see if I can identify any opportunities for investors. Background on Exelixis Exelixis is an oncology company that has become a leader in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), while potentially expanding their expertise in neuroendocrine tumor (NET), and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) thanks to their flagship TKI, CABOMETYX. As the only approved product, ...

Manager’s grounded attitude has helped the free-scoring German giants set up a tantalising Champions League showdown and de facto final If you thought that was good, wait until you have done it at Ewood Park. While everyone else struggled to compose themselves after watching a modern classic unfold between Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, it was Vincent Kompany who supplied the cooling balm. He had just taken Bayern back to the Champions League semi-finals in scintillating fashion, another feat to justify the decision to take him from Burnley two years ago. Not many managers have breathed such rarefied air within days of turning 40. For Kompany, though, it sat snugly alongside the snappy Lancashire climate. “I remember we beat Blackburn twice with Burnley,” he said, having been asked whether Wednesday night marked a crowning achievement in his coaching career. “Nobody in this room will want to compare it with the game today, but it was amazing. I experienced so much as a player and that was incredible. For Bayern this game is an amazing feeling, but I don’t think you wait for Real Madrid to say ‘This is the best’. You have to get it from other things as well.” Continue reading...

Jonathan Kitchen Amid the insatiable demand for computing power, xAI ( X.AI ) appears likely to rent some of its capacity to artificial intelligence startup Cursor, Business Insider reported. Cursor is likely to train its latest AI model, known as Composer 2.5, on “thousands” of GPUs that xAI has obtained from suppliers, such as Nvidia ( NVDA ), the news outlet reported. The move could position xAI, which is now a part of SpaceX ( SPACE ), as a potential alternative to the hyperscalers, such as Microsoft ( MSFT ) and Google ( GOOGL ) ( GOOG ), and the neo-clouds, such as CoreWeave ( CRWV ) and Nebius ( NBIS ), the news outlet added . It could also boost xAI's revenue streams as SpaceX reportedly prepares to go public amid high investor expectations. Elon Musk, who co-founded xAI a few years ago, apologized in March for not building xAI “right” and said it was being rebuilt. Cursor, which reportedly hit $2B in annual recurring revenue last month, is in talks to raise additional funding that would value the AI coding company at $50B. Neither xAI nor Cursor immediately responded to a request for comment from Seeking Alpha.

E-bikes have started to blur what was once a basic feature of cycling: you push the pedals, which turns the wheels. Now, with throttles, you only have to pedal some of the time. And in mid-drive motors, the force you generate through pedaling is routed through a complex set of gearing and is merged with a motor's output. The once-direct connection between your legs and the rear wheel has become much less straightforward. An electric bicycle startup called Also wants to obliterate that connection entirely. When you pedal its bike, you're turning a generator. The power you produce, perhaps with additional juice from a battery, is sent to a motor, which turns the wheels. How much this feels like a normal bicycle is determined entirely by software, which controls crank resistance and converts the force you're generating into motor power. Also says its software will convince you that you're just pedaling a regular old bike most of the time. And when it doesn't feel like that, it's because the software can provide a better experience.
