This shadowy render is the best glimpse Microsoft is giving us so far. | Image: Microsoft Once upon a time, Microsoft had to write off $900 million betting an Arm-based Nvidia chip could power its first flagship Windows portable, the original Microsoft Surface . But today, it's trying again. Microsoft and Nvidia have just announced the Surface Laptop Ultra, a computer with a new Arm-based Nvidia chip at its core. There's a lot we don't know about the 15-inch Surface Laptop Ultra, such as its final specs or the foggiest idea of what it might cost. But Microsoft is promising it's the most powerful Surface, period: "This is the most powerful thing we've ever made," Microsoft Surface boss Andrew Hill replies, when we ask how it stac … Read the full story at The Verge.

Wanchai Noolpong/iStock via Getty Images Quarterly commentary Financial assets experienced mixed returns in the first quarter. The fund underperformed the benchmark. Asset allocation was the primary driver of the modest shortfall, while underlying manager performance contributed. Market review and outlook The world financial markets, after performing well in the first two months of the year on continued optimism about trends in economic growth and interest rates, turned lower following the start of the conflict in the Middle East in early March. The ensuing spike in oil prices, together with concerns about possible shortages of other commodities caused by disrupted supply chains, dampened the growth outlook and led to a sharp rise in inflation expectations. The deteriorating inflation picture, in turn, dashed optimism that central banks could continue cutting rates. In combination, these developments led to a surge in global government bond yields that erased the positive total returns achieved in the first two months of the year. The conflict also fueled a sizable downturn in major global equity indexes in March, sending stocks into the red. With this said, the majority of the negative return for equities stemmed from weakness in the growth style in general, and mega-cap U.S. technology stocks in particular. Conversely, the value style, dividend payers, and more defensive companies generally produced positive returns, benefiting diversified investors. We're encouraged by the broadening of leadership away from the "Magnificent Seven" group of U.S. tech companies, as it provided a tailwind for our diversified positioning. Contributors and detractors The fund's modest underperformance was almost entirely due to its overweight position in equities and its corresponding underweight in bonds. On the positive side, we benefited from having an underweight in U.S. large caps in favor of an overweight in U.S. mid caps. Underlying manager performance contributed, highlighted ...

Chelsea, London: I find myself moved by this garden that highlights the ‘edgelands’, those unprotected and modest places where nature can thrive Parakeets screech and planes rumble overhead, but my attention is on the plants at my feet: the tracery of herb robert, purple nibs of plantain, flailing bramble and bristly nettle. I’m sitting on a boulder in a clearing among hawthorn, privet and silver birch. It feels a quiet space, one you might stumble on in the woods or are drawn to when you feel low, but is in fact at the Chelsea flower show. The name of this garden is On the Edge for it evokes the edgelands, the fringes of where we live. Unprotected, modest places – not grand landscapes but ones that are close by towns and cities. Designed by Sarah Eberle, the garden marks the centenary of the Campaign to Protect Rural England and the launch of the first interactive map of England’s countryside edges, a gathering of people’s stories and memories about place.

Beef prices have jumped $1.10/lb (18.9%) over the last year and have doubled since the end of 2013. As we highlighted a couple months ago, the backyard burger is becoming a delicacy! Make sure to enjoy each and every savory bite this summer. At the same time that ground beef approaches $7/lb, they're practically giving away eggs. Just over a year ago, in early 2025, the wholesale price of a dozen large eggs topped $8. Earlier this month, that same dozen eggs got down to just $0.50! Since 2014, when weekly USDA data begins, a dozen eggs have only dipped to 50 cents or less two other times: mid-2019 and mid-2016. While a burger for lunch or dinner is killing consumer pocketbooks, at least breakfast is getting cheaper.
