Seattle Residents Forced To Barricade Their Streets To Protect From Gun Violence Fed up with years of gun violence and repeated shootings near Aurora Avenue, some residents in North Seattle have started installing their own street barricades in an effort to protect their neighborhoods, KOMO News writes . Neighbors living near North 97th, 98th, and 102nd streets recently placed large planter boxes, piles of dirt, and gravel across parts of residential roads that connect to Aurora Avenue North. The goal, residents say, is to make it harder for shooters to speed through side streets during violent incidents linked to ongoing prostitution and human trafficking activity in the area. Tensions escalated again over the weekend after another shooting near Aurora Avenue N and N 98th Street. Seattle police said officers found around 40 shell casings at the scene after multiple people exchanged gunfire. Security footage reportedly captured several seconds of rapid shooting, with bullets hitting nearby apartments, homes, and parked cars. In one recent case, a stray bullet entered a family’s home and came to rest near the bassinet of a 6-week-old baby. The KOMO report says that many residents say the violence has become unbearable and accuse city leaders of failing to respond effectively despite years of complaints and calls for stronger enforcement. In response to the latest incidents, Seattle police said they are increasing overnight patrols along Aurora Avenue and assigning additional resources from the department’s Gun Violence Reduction Unit. The homemade barriers, however, have sparked disagreement within the community. Some residents worry blocked streets could slow firefighters, ambulances, or police responding to emergencies. Others point out that Seattle requires permits for any structures placed in public roadways, meaning the barricades could eventually be removed by the city. Still, supporters argue the measures are necessary to keep residents safe, especially childr...

American consumers might be buying plenty of goods from Temu, but on Wednesday, American investors weren't so hot on the site's owner, PDD Holdings (PDD 10.38%). They traded out of the Chinese e-commerce company's American Depositary Shares (ADSes) after it published a disappointing quarterly earnings report; the equity fell by more than 10% that day. Two fundamentals moving in opposite directions Well before U.S. markets opened, PDD took the wraps off its first-quarter 2026 results. The period saw the company earn 106 billion yuan ($15.6 billion), up 11% year over year. Net income not under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), on the other hand, fell by 15% to 14 billion yuan ($2.1 billion), or 9.51 yuan ($1.40) per ADS. Neither line item surmounted the consensus analyst estimates. On average, prognosticators tracking PDD stock were modeling nearly 110 billion yuan ($16.2 billion) for revenue, and a non-GAAP (adjusted) net profit of 16.77 yuan ($2.47) per ADS. Although no one likes a wide bottom-line miss, PDD's is due largely to business revitalization and international trade relations. The company is in the middle of a transformation from a retailer of low-cost goods to one anchored by more quality, self-branded products, an effort that requires increased investment. On top of that, the expiration of the de minimis tax exemption in the U.S. led to increased tariff costs for the company.

Chinese smart electric vehicle (EV) maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) closed at $5.75, up 9.32% Wednesday. The stock moved higher after the company’s flagship ES9 SUV launched at a lower-than-expected starting price. Investors are watching upcoming ES9-driven delivery momentum as the price point signals potential worries about competition. Trading volume reached 88.6 million shares, coming in about 110% above its three-month average of 42.2 million shares. Nio IPO'd in 2018 and has fallen 13% since going public after losing much of its 2020 momentum-driven gains. How the markets moved today The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX:^GSPC) inched up 0.03% to 7,521 on Wednesday, while the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX:^IXIC) added 0.07% to finish at 26,675. Within auto manufacturers, industry peers Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) closed at $440.36 (1.56%), and Li Auto (NASDAQ:LI) ended at $15.78 (-0.63%) as investors assessed competitive EV pricing and demand. What this means for investors Nio surprised industry watchers by pricing its new flagship SUV below pre-sale quotes announced in April. Every model trim will be the equivalent of about $4,000 cheaper than originally thought. The three-row SUV is the largest battery-electric SUV ever produced in China. The company is partnering with global professional basketball legend Yao Ming to promote the new offering. Rising competition could be driving the company’s aggressive pricing and advertising approach, giving investors something to monitor. Nio announced strong delivery numbers in Q1, nearly doubling year over year. Management also predicted strong growth in Q2, giving some investors confidence to add Nio shares now.

Bond yields have moved sharply higher in recent weeks. The yield on the 30-year Treasury hit a 19-year high this week. And the 10-year Treasury yield, which is the basis for consumer borrowing rates on mortgages and car loans, among other types of loans, climbed from 4.03% on March 3 to 4.69% last week before easing slightly to around 4.5% this week. Such sharp, rapid increases in bond yields historically have been trouble for the stock market. Will they be this time? There's lots of research on how bond yields impact stocks. Most of it centers on how higher interest rates make it more difficult for consumers to finance purchases, which negatively impacts companies' revenues. In addition, higher interest costs directly subtract from companies' earnings. Also, higher bond yields make bonds more attractive relative to riskier stocks, which puts additional pressure on share prices. Yet research by Goldman Sachs found that elevated bond yields themselves don't have a huge impact on stocks. It's when yields spike suddenly, about a half percentage point in a month, that short-term S&P 500 returns turn negative. Goldman says that's suddenly a risk. "There is a growing risk that rising bond yields, along with a slowing economy or inflationary pressures, could trigger a stock market correction," according to a research note the investment bank put out last week. It will be critical for investors to watch measures of inflation While yields have surged, they're still slightly below the threshold where they begin to weigh on stocks. A further increase in inflation could push them above that level, however. That's because bond investors are selling bonds in reaction to surging inflation, which rose to 3.8% year over year in April, the highest inflation rate since May 2023, and what they see as the Federal Reserve's inappropriate response to it (i.e., instead of having a bias toward lower rates in the future, the Fed should be thinking about raising its target rate to combat risi...

Key Points Nvidia is still a top-tier AI investment. Meta Platforms is putting up strong growth while trading at a reasonable valuation. Broadcom and Taiwan Semiconductor will continue benefiting from huge AI infrastructure spending. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › One place that I like to source investment ideas from is billionaire hedge fund managers. They have far more resources than individual investors do, so seeing where they're choosing to put their money can point me in the direction of smart opportunities. All fund managers with more than $100 million under management are legally obligated to file a Form 13F with the Securities and Exchange Commission that reports their fund's holdings as of the end of each quarter. That information has to be delivered and made available to investors no later than 45 days after the quarter in question ends. So if you're going to use such data to help you pick stocks to add to your own portfolio, it's critical to follow firms that are committed to a long-term buy-and-hold mindset. With funds that take a more short-term approach to the market, positions may turn over several times during a quarter, and those shifts won't ever show up in the 13F data.
