And what I love most is it’s Quant, but it's also dividends. Sweet, sweet dividends. And if you're anything like me, I love that income as well.

For decades, investors have viewed Cummins (CMI 0.50%) as a bellwether for the heavy-duty truck market and the broader economy. While that connection to the traditional engine business will always exist, Cummins is undergoing a fundamental shift, fueled by a source of demand that is far less cyclical than truck sales. The company's power systems segment, which manufactures large diesel and natural gas generators, has become the company's primary growth driver. This was evident in the first quarter, when Cummins beat earnings estimates and raised its full-year guidance despite a slowdown in its legacy engine business. Powering the AI boom Growth for this segment and its distribution segment is being driven by the need for many more data centers in this artificial intelligence (AI) era. To ensure continuous uptime and meet regulatory requirements, these facilities require reliable backup power. A typical 100-megawatt data center needs between 120 and 200 megawatts of backup generation, creating plenty of demand for Cummins. In the first quarter, power systems revenue grew 19% year over year to $2 billion. More importantly, the segment's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margin reached a record 29.5%, and contributed 39% of the company's total EBITDA. Management expects margins to settle between 25% and 26% for the full year, well above historical levels. The strength of this business and its distribution segment is supported by a durable advantage. In a supply-constrained market, Cummins' ability to manufacture and distribute its own engines and generators gives it a key edge over competitors. With an order backlog that now extends into 2028, the company has gained significant earnings visibility. A more balanced business The growth in power generation has offset the cyclical weakness in the North American truck market. In the first quarter, unit sales of heavy-duty trucks fell 16% year over year, resulting in a 4% decline in eng...

Jannik Sinner is out of the French Open in the biggest shock of the tournament so far after struggling with injury in a five-set loss to Juan Manuel Cerundolo in the second round in sweltering Paris conditions. World number one Sinner was the heaviest favourite for the men's title since the great Rafael Nadal in 2009, with no-one coming close to challenging him on the clay in recent weeks. Sinner was bidding to complete the career Grand Slam at Roland Garros, and few expected him to fall short - but just as Nadal suffered an early exit 17 years ago, the Italian will now have to wait for another chance at Paris glory. Sinner was two sets and 5-1 up before a remarkable change of momentum when fitness issues plagued his game. The 24-year-old appeared laboured on court with a dejected expression as he lost the next three games, including 11 straight points, before calling for the trainer. Sinner could be heard saying he felt "dizzy" and like he "wanted to vomit" and took a mid-game medical timeout before returning to court. After dropping the third set, Sinner failed to regain his fitness as Argentina's world number 56 won 3-6 2-6 7-5 6-1 6-1.

Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra has become one of the most influential Indian-born leaders in the technology industry. Following a 194% stock climb this year and an increase of 863% over the past 12 months following rapid demand for AI and memory chips, Sanjay has helped spearhead the company to a market valuation of more than US$1tn. In part with these record highs, he is now worth an estimated US$1.2bn. Sanjay has served as President and CEO of the company since 2017, joining the company after serving as Co-Founder, President and CEO of SanDisk – the flash memory firm Western Digital acquired in 2016 for around U$16bn. As Micron expands alongside the broader AI boom, Sanjay’s rise has placed him among prominent Indian technology leaders heading major American companies.

Palantir Technologies experienced an upward movement in its share price today, likely driven by a combination of robust financial performance, significant contract awards, and favorable analyst sentiment within a booming artificial intelligence market. The company recently reported strong first-quarter 2026 results, exceeding analyst expectations for both revenue and earnings per share. This financial outperformance was coupled with an optimistic outlook, as management raised its full-year 2026 revenue guidance, signaling continued growth momentum. A key catalyst for the positive price action appears to be Palantir's continued success in securing government contracts. In the first quarter of 2026 alone, the company closed 206 government deals, with a substantial number exceeding $10 million in value. This highlights sustained demand for its data analytics and AI platforms across defense, intelligence, and civilian agencies. Notably, the U.S. Department of Agriculture recently formed a new digital partnership with Palantir, expanding its presence in civilian government sectors. Furthermore, the "program of record" designation granted to Palantir's Maven AI system by the Department of Defense in March 2026 ensures a durable revenue stream and long-term embeddedness within the military's budget planning. Investor confidence has also been bolstered by recent adjustments in analyst forecasts. Several firms have issued positive ratings and increased their price targets for Palantir, contributing to a "Buy" consensus. This reflects a positive re-evaluation of the company's growth trajectory, especially as its Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) gains traction across various sectors. The broader industry backdrop of accelerating artificial intelligence adoption is also providing a significant tailwind. Global AI spending is projected to see substantial growth in 2026, with enterprises increasingly expanding their use of AI models and agentic workflows. Palantir is well-p...

Oracle Corporation's stock experienced significant upward movement today, primarily driven by a positive analyst initiation and a continued strong narrative around its artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure growth and robust cloud performance. JPMorgan initiated coverage of Oracle with an "Overweight" rating and a $210 price target, validating the company's transformation into a scaled AI infrastructure provider. This analyst action served as a fresh catalyst, contributing to positive market sentiment. The company's strategic positioning in the burgeoning AI market, often cited as the "fourth hyperscaler," is a key factor. Oracle recently secured a substantial US$30 billion cloud infrastructure agreement with the U.S. government earlier in 2026, marking one of the largest cloud contracts in history and solidifying its role as a critical provider of AI computing capacity for national security and defense applications. This contract, along with the adoption of its Fusion Data Intelligence platform by major enterprises, underscores Oracle's expanding presence in high-compliance, AI-driven workloads. Oracle's strong financial performance in its third quarter of fiscal year 2026, reported in March, continues to underpin investor confidence. The company exceeded revenue and earnings per share estimates, with cloud infrastructure revenue surging and multicloud database revenue seeing exceptional growth. Furthermore, Oracle's Remaining Performance Obligations (RPO) demonstrated a substantial increase, largely attributed to significant AI contracts. Management has also raised its fiscal year 2027 revenue guidance, reflecting an expectation of continued demand. This ongoing positive momentum in financial metrics and forward guidance has been a crucial element in today's positive stock performance, indicating successful execution of its cloud and AI strategy.

Biswa1992/iStock via Getty Images Galiano Gold ( GAU ) Q1 2026 was not a clean quarter, but it was not that bad to break my thesis. Given that I am continuing my bullish thesis and maintaining my rating. The production decreased from Q4 2025, AISC also increased, while Ghana royalty change made cost picture weaker for me than it was a while back. So, on the surface the quarter itself does not seem that good as we saw in Q4 2025. But I do not think that operational thesis broke here, the company still generated strong cash flow and ended the quarter without debt. Nkran Cut 3 project is moving forward and now I can say that exploration is becoming more important part of this thesis because it can strengthen reserve and mine life story. Q1 2026 As I mentioned Q1 2026 did not look good to me and to be fair they were looking mixed, because the production decreased comparing it to Q4. Throughout the quarter GAU produced 34747 ounces of gold, when in Q4 production was around 37574 ounces and to me this is not an ideal QoQ situation, especially given that Q4 showed recovery. But I also believe that it is important not to lose context here, because production was still actually 68% higher than a year ago and results are still in the range of H1 production guidance. Also, mill availability was at 89%, because the quarter was affected by five day shutdown and this makes me a little less concerned and I would not look at that as an operational deterioration signal. Financially the quarter was stronger as revenue reached $166.5 million, operating cash flow was $46.7 million and adjusted EBITDA reached $93.4 million, which cash position was $114.9 million and no debt. The market might get shaken by the fact that production fell, but in reality, I believe that financials were strong. AISC Problem The main question for me now is AISC , because it is impossible to ignore it if you are investing into miners. AISC increased to $2361/oz, when in Q4 it was $2033/oz, so headline cost pic...

mtcurado/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images Oracle ( ORCL ) has been one beneficiary of the booming AI market. Some would say that these benefits aren’t fully reflected in ORCL’s current stock performance. Shares in the stock are up about 18% over the past year and actually down 2% YTD. That’s a far cry from the gains seen elsewhere in the market. Seeking Alpha - YTD Share Price Performance Of ORCL Stock Granted, ORCL’s AI tailwind is more-so tied to the infrastructure piece as opposed to the technology itself, and it’s possible this aspect is undervalued. A case, nonetheless, could likely be made that the stock, overall, is greatly undervalued. In a recent bull note , analysts at Wedbush reiterated its ‘outperform’ rating on ORCL and also raised its price target to $275/share from $225/share previously. On that note, analysts cited ORCL’s data center and infrastructure capacity as key catalysts for upside. At this target, this would imply about 40% upside potential from current trading levels. In my last update on ORCL, I recognized the potential but still rated shares as a ‘hold.’ The stock has gone on to gain about 16% since that upside, about double that of the S&P 500 ( SPY ) in the same period. Seeking Alpha - ORCL Share Price Performance Since Last Author Update With Q4 right around the corner, I continue to view ORCL as a ‘hold,’ though I believe the outlook ahead is positive, albeit somewhat uncertain. What Is The Outlook For ORCL Stock? I believe ORCL’s outlook is positive, and I would tie much of this optimism to the company’s infrastructure business. In the Q3 release, ORCL reported triple-digit growth across several AI-related segments , including AI infrastructure revenue growth of 243% and multicloud database revenue growth of more than 500%. Just as importantly, management stated that demand continues to exceed supply. In other words, there is likely still a significant runway ahead. I believe that as enterprises continue building out AI workloads, O...

Tippapatt/iStock via Getty Images By Nelson Yu For asset owners, the key question is where and how active strategies can be most effective. Equity investors are facing monumental questions about their allocation strategies in a new market regime. Market concentration has risen sharply, valuations have climbed to record highs in parts of the market, and factor volatility has dominated returns. These dynamics have challenged many active strategies, particularly in US and global large-cap equities, and have shaken confidence among asset owners. Yet, we think active management can help address these very challenges. Opportunities persist where dispersion is high, benchmarks are less concentrated and fundamental change is occurring beneath the surface. Even so, as technology and AI make information increasingly accessible, we believe active strategies must adapt their processes to deliver consistent relative performance. The shift toward passive portfolios is understandable. At the same time, we believe that simplistic allocation decisions carry risks. So, instead of making a binary choice between passive and active, we think asset owners should ask: where, how and under what conditions are active strategies most likely to deliver value? In other words, asset owners should reassess how they allocate active equity risk, broaden their opportunity set and lean into durable, differentiated investment processes. Repackaging Risk: The Consequences of Concentration Equity market concentration has become a defining feature for investors in the 2020s. In the US, a small group of AI-driven mega-cap stocks now dominates index weights, earnings growth and volatility. This concentration has reshaped the opportunity set for active managers in both US and global portfolios. Strong fundamental insights simply aren’t enough for equity portfolios to keep pace when index returns are driven primarily by a narrow subset of stocks, and as a result, most active managers in US large-cap equitie...

Chinese Navy Pushes Dutch Frigate From Claimed Waters Via Electronic Warfare The Netherlands has become the latest Western nation to tangle with Beijing and exchange tense words after testing its sweeping claims to the South China Sea. A tense military encounter unfolded involving a Dutch warship, identified as the HNLMS De Ruyter , after it had entered waters near the disputed Paracel Islands . China's military reportedly used electronic warfare measures to force it out of the China-claimed waters in the incident on Wednesday. source: Defensie.nl Chinese military spokesperson Zhai Shichen later charged that the Dutch ship violated "China’s territorial sovereignty and maritime and air security," while further alleging that the ship illicitly launched multiple helicopter sorties and entered Chinese airspace . "The Dutch side’s actions…seriously undermine peace and stability in the South China Sea and could easily lead to misunderstanding and miscalculation," Zhai said. "We firmly oppose such acts and solemnly demand that the Dutch side immediately cease its infringement and provocative actions. The Chinese military will maintain a high state of alert at all times and resolutely safeguard China's national sovereignty, security and regional peace and stability," the PLA statement added. However, the Netherlands has rejected this account, instead saying "the frigate has not been in territorial waters " and "operates in accordance with international law," according to the words Dutch navy spokesperson Marinka Hiraldo Vos-van Kooten. USNI News details the Dutch frigate's mission as follows : The Royal Netherlands Navy De Zeven Provinciën-class frigate is deployed to the Indo-Pacific for Amsterdam’s five-month-long Pacific Archer mission . The mission aims to promote freedom of navigation and foster ties with allies and partners. De Ruyter is also set to attend the Rim of Pacific naval drills around Hawaii later this summer. One week before the incident, De Ruyter moored i...
