Rocket Lab (NASDAQ: RKLB) , a producer of reusable orbital rockets, usually doesn't get as much attention as its larger industry peer, SpaceX. But over the past 12 months, Rocket Lab's stock has nearly quadrupled as it dazzled the market with its rapid growth. It isn't profitable yet, but it could still be worth buying for four simple reasons. Rocket Lab's Electron rocket can carry small payloads of up to 300 kilograms into low Earth orbit. It doesn't directly compete against SpaceX's Falcon rockets, which carry much larger payloads, and its top customers include NASA, the U.S. Space Development Agency (SDA), the Swedish National Space Agency, Kinéis, and BlackSky Technology .

narvo vexar Perrigo ( PRGO ) ticked higher by 1.7% amid some renewed takeover speculation. Germany-based Stada Arzneimittel AG and its private equity owner CapVest may have renewed interested in an acquisition of Perrigo ( PRGO ), according to traders, who cited a Betaville "uncooked" alert that was circulating on Wednesday.

There's even some speculation that Stada and CapVest may be considering a "bear hug" or starting a possible takeover offer after discussions faltered earlier this year. Advisers from JPMorgan and Citi are speculated to be working on a possible transaction. The latest news comes after Betaville in April said that generics drug maker Perrigo ( PRGO ) may be a takeover target and that Stada may be interested.

If you looked at Intuit 's (NASDAQ: INTU) 51% year-to-date drop without any context, it would be easy to assume that the company's fundamentals have deteriorated substantially.

If you looked at Intuit 's (NASDAQ: INTU) 51% year-to-date drop without any context, it would be easy to assume that the company's fundamentals have deteriorated substantially. Or you might assume that the company's valuation had previously climbed to too lofty a level, and that it had undergone a necessary correction. However, neither of those things is the case. Intuit is still gaining market share and has high profit margins. And in the wake of its decline, it has an 18.5 price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio .

New college graduates around the country have been booing and heckling commencement speakers who hype up AI . Microsoft would like everyone to talk it out. In a blog post running more than 3,100 words, Microsoft vice chair and president Brad Smith addressed the recent spate of viral clips from graduation ceremonies, like former Google CEO Eric Schmidt getting an earful at the University of Arizona , or the speaker in Florida who seemed surprised when students booed at the mention of AI as "the next industrial revolution." The videos speak to a broader societal sentiment around AI - the technology is deeply unpopular even as technology compani … Read the full story at The Verge.

alexskopje/iStock via Getty Images Investment Overview: Why Roche & Pfizer Are Pinning Hopes On Obesity / Type 2 Diabetes Assets This week, the Pharma giants Roche Holding AG ( RHHBY ) and Pfizer Inc. ( PFE ) both gave presentations at the American Diabetes Association ("ADA") to discuss latest results and outline paths to approval for their respective GLP-1 receptor agonist obesity / Type 2 Diabetes ("T2D") assets - enicepatide and petrelintide in the case of Roche, and berobenatide and met-233i in the case of Pfizer. As readers will likely be aware, the glucagon like peptide-1 ("GLP-1") drug class, exemplified by Eli Lilly's ( LLY ) tirzepatide, approved to treat obesity and Type 2 Diabetes ("T2D"), brand names Zepbound / Mounjaro, and Novo Nordisk's ( NVO ) semaglutide, approved in the same indications as Wegovy / Mounjaro, has become the biggest selling drug class globally. Semaglutide and tirzepatide combined revenues were ~$65bn in 2025. In Q1 2026, semaglutide combined revenues were ~$7bn, and tirzepatide ~$13bn. Top Pharma companies revenues / income compared (my table using Seeking Alpha data) In the table above, I have highlighted 5-year revenue and income performance for 12 of the world's largest Pharmas globally to illustrate the impact that the burgeoning GLP-1 RA market has had on Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk's ( NVO ) performance. As we can see, on a three-year basis, Eli Lilly's share price has performed better than any other Pharma - up 158%, while its revenue CAGR between 2020 and 2025 is ~22%, also the best, and its net income CAGR is also the best - 27% - excepting Gilead Sciences ( GILD ), whose reported income in 2020 was just $89m, which we can term an anomalous result. Likewise, Novo Nordisk has the second best revenue CAGR of 18%, and the second best net income CAGR - also 18% - Novo stock also climbed by ~300% between 2021 - mid-2024, before operational difficulties created a difficult bear market for shares. Meanwhile, Roche's five-year reve...
It’s easy to look at a stock chart after a big run and feel like you missed the party. ORCL surged more than thirty-eight percent in three months, a significant move for a company of its size. More interesting than the rally itself was the trail of breadcrumbs the company left beforehand.
