Micron 's (NASDAQ: MU) stock has been a huge winner over the past year, as the company has benefited greatly from the ongoing supercyles in the DRAM (dynamic random access memory) and NAND (flash) markets. This has led to explosive revenue growth and ballooning gross margins for the company. This was on full display last quarter, when Micron saw its revenue nearly triple and its gross margin more than double to 74.4%. However, the company announced perhaps even more important news in mid-March when it revealed that its HBM4 36GB 12-Hi memory, designed specifically for Nvidia 's Vera Rubin platform, was now in mass production. For graphics processing units (GPUs) and other artificial intelligence (AI) chips to perform their best, they need to be packaged with high-bandwidth memory (HBM). This is because HBM sits next to these chips, allowing them to quickly store, retrieve, and transfer data to speed up processing times. Image source: The Motley Fool. Continue reading

Desire to remain relevant is understandable, but a glance at his behavioural pattern casts doubt on his PGA Tour and Ryder Cup involvement It is a scene that has become more extraordinary with the passing of time. Plenty of sportspeople have been guilty of or admitted to extramarital capers. Only Tiger Woods appeared live on television, in front of a hand-picked audience, to deliver a 14-minute mea culpa on his transgressions. American golf executives in their perfectly ironed slacks stood in sombre mood as Woods laid bare his “personal sins”. The venue, hilariously, was the home of the PGA Tour. Woods had no need to go into tawdry detail about his antics; the tabloid media had done that for him. “I convinced myself that normal rules didn’t apply,” said Woods. Sixteen years on from that speech, it is worth pondering whether much has changed. Continue reading...

tadamichi/iStock via Getty Images Commentary as of 12/31/25 The fund posted returns of 1.99% (Institutional shares) and 2.04% (Investor A shares, without sales charge) for the fourth quarter of 2025. The fund's marginal underperformance of its benchmark was due to the strength in international equities, where the benchmark was more exposed. At quarter-end, the fund's 30-day SEC yield was 7.54% subsidized and 7.34% unsubsidized for institutional shares. The fund increased its emerging market exposure across equities and local-currency debt, and rotated equity positioning by adding global health care and defense-focused equities. Growth exposure was trimmed in favor of more attractively valued non-cyclical and defensive segments, alongside a modest tactical increase in the overall equity allocation. Contributors The largest contributor to performance was an overweight exposure to equities relative to fixed income, which benefited from supportive risk sentiment and resilient economic data. Strong security selection in U.S. equities added value, supported by earnings momentum and continued market leadership from growth sectors. The fund's overweight position in floating-rate assets made a more modest contribution, as elevated policy rates continued to support income-oriented, rate-resilient exposures. Detractors The main detractors were an underweight exposure to international equities and weaker security selection in international markets, as improved growth expectations, attractive valuations, and supportive policy measures drove strong non-U.S. equity performance. Infrastructure equity selection was detrimental as rate volatility at the long end of the yield curve weighed on yield-sensitive assets. In addition, the fund's long Japanese yen position detracted as the currency weakened materially against the U.S. dollar.

Sometimes the narrative and investor perceptions don't fit the reality. Investors are forced to realign the way they think about an asset class or, in this case, the asset classes of gold and silver or buying gold miners like Newmont (NYSE: NEM) or a silver miner like Hecla Mining (NYSE: HL) .

Sometimes the narrative and investor perceptions don't fit the reality. Investors are forced to realign the way they think about an asset class or, in this case, the asset classes of gold and silver or buying gold miners like Newmont (NYSE: NEM) or a silver miner like Hecla Mining (NYSE: HL) . While the two precious metals have different dynamics, they have both surged in recent years, driven by speculative investment that somewhat unwound during the recent broad-based market sell-off. That wasn't supposed to happen to so-called safe-haven investments, but that moniker needs some qualification. Whenever there's a broad sell-off in assets, investors look to raise cash by selling, and it's understandable if they take profits on assets that have soared in recent years, like gold and silver. That sell-off will be more pronounced if demand for gold and silver comes primarily from speculative investment rather than from underlying demand, such as from the jewelry, electronics, technology, or industrial sectors.

Consumers shop at a supermarket in Mengzi, Yunnan province, on March 9, 2026. Photo: Xue Yingying/VCG For the first time, China has embedded a dedicated plan to raise household incomes into a top-level national policy document, signaling a change in priorities as policymakers grapple with persistently weak consumer spending. The move comes despite China’s per capita GDP exceeding $13,000 for two consecutive years. Consumption, however, has lagged behind — a gap officials now view as a bottleneck to sustainable growth. The Urban and Rural Residents’ Income Growth Plan was first proposed by the Communist Party Central Committee in October 2025 and later incorporated into the 15th Five-Year Plan in March 2026. Premier Li Qiang has elevated the initiative to be a cornerstone of a broader push to revive domestic demand.
