Investor sentiment improved slightly, though bearish views remained elevated, according to the latest survey conducted by the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII). The American Association of Individual Investors said in its survey that the bullish camp rose to 36.3% for the week ended June 3, from 35.6% in the prior week. Meanwhile, bearish sentiment declined to 37.0%, compared to 41.9% last week. Markets traded in a volatile and mixed fashion through the week, as investors balanced continued optimism around AI-driven growth and earnings momentum against rising geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainty. Early gains were supported by strength in technology shares and ongoing enthusiasm for artificial intelligence spending, alongside hopes of a potential U.S.-Iran deal. However, sentiment turned more cautious as the week progressed, with oil prices and Treasury yields moving higher, weak global economic data from Europe and Asia, and escalating Middle East risks weighing on risk appetite. Corporate developments, including underwhelming results from Broadcom and cautious commentary around the sustainability of the AI rally, further pressured technology stocks, dragging the Nasdaq lower even as the Dow saw sharp gains at times. Investors also digested mixed economic signals, including private payroll growth and inflation updates, while broader concerns around market froth, recession risks, and liquidity conditions kept markets choppy into the end of the period. The benchmark S&P 500 ( SP500 ) and Nasdaq ( COMP:IND ) slipped around 0.13% and 0.24% for the week, while the Dow ( DJI ) rose around 0.04%. According to AAII, neutral sentiment, or expectations that stock prices will stay essentially unchanged over the next six months, rose to 26.7% from 22.6% last week. The survey has been conducted by the American Association of Individual Investors since 1987, in which it asks respondents for their thoughts on where the market is heading in the next...

Broadcom (AVGO)'s stock took a 14.0% haircut before the market even opened on Thursday. You'd think the company had just guided to a collapse. Instead, the CEO was talking about “accelerating growth in AI semiconductor revenue” and demand that is “simply insatiable.” So what exactly is going on here?

In this article VZ T Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT The exterior of Verizon and AT&T stores, Coconut Grove, Miami, Florida. Jeff Greenberg | Universal Images Group | Getty Images The U.S. Supreme Court backed the Federal Communications Commission's system for levying fines, ruling on Thursday against wireless carriers AT&T and Verizon in their challenge to the agency and handing a win to President Donald Trump 's administration. The ruling was 8-1. At issue in the legal dispute was whether the agency's in-house proceedings for imposing the penalties deprived the companies of their right to a jury trial under the U.S. Constitution. Trump's administration defended the FCC's system for assessing financial penalties, known as forfeiture orders. The FCC fined AT&T $57 million and Verizon nearly $47 million after the agency concluded that the companies had unlawfully sold access to customer location data to third parties without securing the consent of users. In all, the FCC imposed nearly $200 million in fines on carriers that it said failed to safeguard customer data. It fined T-Mobile $80 million and Sprint, which T-Mobile acquired in 2020, $12 million. Verizon and AT&T paid the fines they were assessed, but also filed legal challenges that eventually led to a split among regional U.S. appellate courts over the lawfulness of the FCC's in-house procedure for imposing the penalties. In Verizon's case, the New York-based 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the fine. The Constitution permits the FCC to provide an initial penalty assessment as long as an accused party can challenge the government's collection efforts in court, the 2nd Circuit ruled, prompting Verizon's appeal to the Supreme Court. In AT&T's case, the New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the FCC's initial assessment of wrongdoing and a fine deprived the company of its constitutional right to a jury trial. That ruling prompted the FCC to appeal to the Sup...

Kaewta Suphan/iStock via Getty Images Cantor raised Gorilla Technology's ( GRRR ) price target to $40 from $31 following the company's “strong” first quarter results last week. The firm kept its Overweight rating on the shares of the British company — which provides security, network, and Internet of Things, or IoT, technology solutions. "Following GRRR's strong Q1 performance and upward revision to FY26 guidance last week, we update our model and materially raise our estimates. We also incorporate capex related to GPU purchases across the Yotta Phase 1, Yotta Phase 2 and Neutra DC contracts followingrecent announcements around the $2bn Al infrastructure agreement withSupermicro to supply GPUs for the Yotta project," said analyst Bharath Nagaraj. The analysts noted that despite the recent rally, with shares up about 70% year-to-date and 20% over the past month, they remain bullish on the company as they believe the market has yet to fully price in the significant revenue and earnings ramp expected over the coming quarters and years, underpinned by signed contracts across AI data centers and security convergence in Southeast Asia, India, Taiwan, and Egypt. "On the back of our upgraded estimates, we raise our price target to $40 from $31. The stock trades at c.20x EBITDA on our FY28 estimates, which incorporate conservative revenue and earnings forecasts, however include the entire capex for these projects funded using new debt," said Nagaraj.
