(NASDAQ: AMBA), an edge AI semiconductor company, today announced first quarter fiscal 2027 financial results for the period ended April 30, 2026. Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $100.4 million, up 16.9% from $85.9 million in the same period in fiscal 2026. Gross margin under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was 58.4%, compared with 60.0% for the same period in fiscal 2026. GAAP net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $18.1 million, or loss per diluted ordinary share of $0.41, compared with a GAAP net loss of $24.3 million, or loss per diluted ordinary share of $0.58, for the same period in fiscal 2026. Financial results on a non-GAAP basis for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 are as follows: Gross margin on a non-GAAP basis for the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was 59.9%, compared with 62.0% for the same period in fiscal 2026.

Nextpower Inc. agreed to acquire battery company Prevalon Energy for as much as $365 million, marking the solar-tracking provider’s move into energy storage and the fast-growing AI data-center market. The deal for Prevalon, a joint venture of Mitsubishi Power Americas and EES, will be paid in a mix of cash and stock, Fremont, California-based Nextpower said in a statement. “It’s not just bringing us into the battery-energy-storage business, this brings us into the data-center power-supply business,” Nextpower Chief Executive Officer Dan Shugar said of the transaction in an interview. The purchase adds to a flurry of deals as power companies reposition themselves to meet a surge in electricity demand driven by artificial intelligence. Last week, NextEra Energy Inc. agreed to pay about $67 billion in stock for Dominion Energy Inc., the industry’s largest-ever acquisition. Overall, electricity demand from data centers will likely more than double over the next decade, according to BloombergNEF . Nextpower said the purchase of Prevalon will allow it to raise its 2027 revenue guidance to a range of $4 billion to $4.4 billion from $3.8 billion to $4.1 billion. It also boosted its 2027 adjusted profit range to about $845 million to $930 million from $825 million to $900 million. Nextpower has made a string of acquisitions to expand beyond solar trackers into clean-power system-development services, including electrical wiring and power conversion. The move into energy storage comes as data-center developers deploy batteries to bring facilities online faster and handle rapidly fluctuating power needs. The global battery market is forecast to grow to 10 times its 2025 size by the end of 2036, according to BNEF. Prevalon has more than six gigawatt-hours of battery storage installed and 1.3 gigawatts of supply contracts for AI and data-center deployments, Shugar said. Nextpower plans to operate the business as a wholly owned subsidiary, he said.

Pgiam Wall Street moved higher on Thursday as investors reacted positively to fresh macroeconomic data and reports suggesting the U.S. and Iran are nearing a potential peace agreement, easing concerns about prolonged geopolitical instability and inflationary pressures. The technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite ( COMP:IND ) advanced 0.9%, while the benchmark S&P 500 ( SP500 ) gained 0.5%. The blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average ( DJI ) ended near even. Seeking Alpha analyst Leo Nelissen of Main Street Alpha said the possibility of a truce could help markets shift focus back toward improving economic growth after months dominated by geopolitical uncertainty and concentrated positioning in artificial intelligence-related stocks. “The truce is great news, as it means the market can increasingly do what it did in January and February, which was pricing in broadening economic growth,” Nelissen stated. According to Nelissen, recent market leadership has become increasingly narrow, particularly within semiconductor and AI-linked names that have attracted the bulk of investor capital. After areas like semiconductors absorbed “nearly all capital flows in recent months,” Nelissen said he expects some of that money to rotate into other sectors, potentially creating new opportunities across a market he described as increasingly “top-heavy.” Market Tracking ETFs: ( DIA ), ( DDM ), ( DOG ), ( DXD ), ( SDOW ), ( SPY ), ( VOO ), ( IVV ), ( RSP ), ( SSO ), ( UPRO ), ( SH ), ( SDS ), ( SPXU ), ( QQQ ), ( QQQM ), ( TQQQ ), ( QID ), and ( SQQQ ).

Find winning stocks in any market cycle. Join 7 million investors using Simply Wall St's investing ideas for FREE. A Google software engineer has been charged with insider trading tied to confidential company search data. Authorities allege the employee used this data to place bets on Polymarket, generating about US$1.2 million in winnings. Alphabet, the parent of Google, has placed the employee on leave and is cooperating with law enforcement. For investors following Alphabet (NasdaqGS:GOOGL), this case relates directly to how the company handles internal data. Alphabet operates one of the world's most widely used search engines and runs large scale advertising, cloud, and other digital services that rely on sensitive information. Any sign that internal search data can be misused raises questions about governance, access controls, and how well those systems are enforced. Going forward, regulators may pay closer attention, and investors may ask more detailed questions about Alphabet's internal safeguards. The outcome of this case, along with any policy changes that follow, may influence how market participants view operational risk, data protection, and oversight at the company.

The Polymarket insider trading charges put a spotlight on how Google manages access to its own search data at a time when regulators are already scrutinizing Alphabet’s advertising and search practices in the US and EU. From an investor’s point of view, the key issue is not the size of the alleged US$1.2 million gain, but whether authorities or shareholders conclude that this incident reflects broader gaps in internal controls. That risk is heightened by r...

Hwangdaesung/iStock via Getty Images Trend reversal started a year ago. Services inflation stuck at a high rate for a year. Now prices of food, energy, computers & software (inflationary AI boom), and gold jewelry (gold price spike) all surged. The all-items PCE price index jumped by 0.40% in April from March (+4.9% annualized), on top of the 0.66% spike (8.3% annualized) in the prior month, which had been the worst spike since mid-2022 (blue line). Year-over-year, the PCE price index jumped by 3.8%, the worst since May 2023 (red line). This all-items PCE price index is the yardstick the Fed favors for its 2% inflation target (dotted purple line). And at 3.8%, it is now nearly double the target of 2% and has been moving away from it since May 2025, with big price surges in December, January, and February, before the war and before the energy price spike. The energy price spike came on top of it in March and April. Food prices have begun to surge. The AI boom is driving up prices of semiconductors and, thereby, of computers. Software subscription prices are surging because providers (Microsoft ( MSFT ), Alphabet ( GOOG )( GOOGL ), et al .) have increased their prices after including AI in the package. So far, AI has been inflationary. And services inflation has been stuck at a high rate for an entire year without any improvement. The core PCE price index, which excludes energy and food, rose by 0.24% in April from March, or +2.9% annualized, after four months in a row of 3.6% to 5.2% annualized increases (blue in the chart below). The year-over-year core PCE price index rose by 3.3%, the worst since November 2023 (red in the chart). The Fed’s target for this core PCE inflation measure is 2.0% (dotted purple line). And being a “core” measure, it does not include the gasoline price spike and the now surging food prices. Core PCE inflation never even got close to the Fed’s 2% target but bottomed out at 2.6% in April 2025 and has been moving away from the target ever sin...

Qualcomm (QCOM) was primarily viewed as a smartphone chip giant, powering millions of Android devices around the world. But the artificial-intelligence (AI) boom is rapidly transforming the company’s growth narrative. Qualcomm stock surged to fresh record highs on Tuesday after reports revealed the chipmaker had secured a major AI infrastructure deal with ByteDance , the parent company of TikTok. Under the agreement, ByteDance will reportedly buy millions of Qualcomm’s AI-focused ASIC chips for data centers to support its growing AI software operations. The deal marks ByteDance as Qualcomm’s first major customer for its AI ASIC business and represents an important diversification win as Qualcomm expands beyond smartphones after Apple (AAPL) shifted toward in-house modem chips. Qualcomm has also been growing its presence in PCs, laptops, and robotics. About Qualcomm Stock Headquartered in San Diego, Qualcomm is a leading semiconductor and wireless technology company best known for designing Snapdragon processors and modem chips used in smartphones, PCs, automotive systems, and connected devices worldwide. Qualcomm has increasingly expanded beyond its traditional handset business into AI infrastructure, automotive technology, edge computing, and data center chips. Additionally, the company is investing heavily in AI accelerators and custom ASICs to capitalize on rising demand for generative AI applications. Qualcomm currently has a market cap of $246 billion, making it one of the world’s largest semiconductor companies. Qualcomm stock has been one of the semiconductor sector’s strongest performers in 2026, fueled by growing investor optimism around its expanding AI business and diversification beyond smartphones. Shares are up 42.65% year-to-date (YTD) and have delivered gains of 65.31% over the past 52 weeks. The rally accelerated sharply in recent weeks as enthusiasm surrounding Qualcomm’s AI data center ambitions intensified and investors focused on long-term poten...

Hiroshi Watanabe/DigitalVision via Getty Images Sure enough, my bullish thesis on Palo Alto Networks, Inc. ( PANW ) is playing out as anticipated. The stock is up about 31% since my last piece and has strongly outperformed the benchmark over the past 6 months. PANW: The Stock Surged 31% Since My Last Article (Seeking Alpha) I am happy with the results so far. But I am not changing my view just yet. If anything, new catalysts appear to be developing favorably for the cybersecurity leader. So, my long-term thesis remains intact. I have decided to maintain the rating as Strong Buy. Here's why. Can The Upcoming Earnings Strengthen Bullish Momentum? Palo Alto is expected to deliver earnings next week , post-market on June 2nd. Now, the stock is up 39% over the past month . So, I’d personally be extremely cautious. Of course, anything can happen, and the stock could rally further. But I wouldn’t be shocked by profit-taking even after another stellar earnings report. I, personally, believe that risk management goes a long way. Now, what I love about the company is that it has been consistently delivering above analysts’ expectations . PANW: Earnings History (Seeking Alpha) Quite frankly, it was the end of 2023 the last time Palo Alto posted a miss on the bottom line. And such stability, I think, is something that deserves a premium valuation. Now, I'd love to share a few things from the most recent earnings call . On top of this, it should signal key things I will be looking for in the upcoming report. And spoiler alert, it was a good one! PANW: Q2 2026 (Palo Alto Networks Investor Relations) To be fair, it's not surprising to me that Palo Alto Networks is trading at roughly 70x forward P/E . At all. It's a significant top- and bottom-line growth story. Now, it has posted $2.59 billion in revenue, a 15% top-line growth versus the same quarter last year. If that wasn't enough, PANW delivered $1.03 in diluted EPS. That's a 27% surge on a year-over-year basis. Simply put, tha...

July ICE NY cocoa (CCN25) Wednesday closed down -155 (-1.43%), and July ICE London cocoa #7 (CAN25) closed down -187 (-2.45%). Cocoa prices on Wednesday retreated on signs of ample inventories. ICE-monitored cocoa inventories held in US ports climbed to a 7-3/4 month high Wednesday of 2,165,175 bags. Don’t Miss a Day: Losses in London cocoa accelerated Wednesday after the British pound (^GBPUSD) rallied to a 3-1/4 year high. The stronger pound undercuts cocoa futures that are priced in terms of sterling. On Tuesday, NY cocoa rallied to a 3-1/2 month nearest-futures high as the pace of Ivory Coast cocoa exports has slowed, signaling tighter future cocoa supplies. Monday's government data showed that Ivory Coast farmers shipped 1.58 MMT of cocoa to ports this marketing year from October 1 to May 18, up +10.5% from last year but down from the much larger +35% increase seen in December. Weather concerns in West Africa are also supporting cocoa prices. Despite the recent rains in West Africa, drought still covers more than a third of Ghana and the Ivory Coast, according to the African Flood and Drought Monitor. Cocoa prices have rallied sharply over the past two weeks on quality concerns regarding the Ivory Coast cocoa mid-crop, which is currently being harvested through September. Cocoa processors are complaining about the crop's quality and have rejected truckloads of Ivory Coast cocoa beans. Processors said about 5% to 6% of the mid-crop cocoa in each truckload is poor quality, compared with 1% during the main crop. According to Rabobank, the poor quality of the Ivory Coast's mid-crop is partly tied to late-arriving rain in the region that limited crop growth. The mid-crop is the smaller of two annual cocoa harvests, which typically starts in April. The average estimate for this year's Ivory Coast mid-crop is 400,000 MT, down -9% from last year's 440,000 MT. A rebound in current cocoa inventories is bearish for prices. Since falling to a 21-year low of 1,263,493 bags ...

Salesforce (CRM 0.76%) has been struggling to prove to investors that its business can thrive due to artificial intelligence (AI) rather than suffer from it. CEO Marc Benioff has boasted of his company's Agentforce platform, which leverages AI agents to help companies do more with less and benefit from AI capabilities. Investors, however, haven't been buying it. This year, the stock is down more than 30%. This week, however, the company reported some encouraging numbers that beat expectations. Could this be proof that the business really isn't in as bad a shape as its share price might suggest? Is now a time to load up on Salesforce's stock? Revenue and profit were better than expected in Q1, but guidance was underwhelming On Wednesday, Salesforce posted its first-quarter results for Fiscal 2027, for the period ending April 30. Its revenue for the quarter totaled $11.13 billion, coming in slightly above analyst expectations of $11.05 billion, with the top line rising by 13% year over year. Its adjusted per-share profit of $3.88 was a much stronger beat, as Wall Street was expecting just $3.12. While its earnings guidance for the current quarter was in line with analysts' expectations, projected revenue of $11.27 billion to $11.35 billion falls just outside the $11.36 billion analysts were looking for. This is particularly underwhelming as the company says annual recurring revenue from Agentforce has risen by 205% and is now at $1.2 billion. Even with AI-powered growth, the tech company is not doing enough to impress analysts.
