Another step towards Europe for Bournemouth, another glimpse of Rayan’s talent, his goal a moment of calm amid high-octane hustle. Tempers boiled over, both teams reduced to 10 men by first-half losses of reason. Fulham fought for every ball in their own quest to play European football. Falling short here, and in recent weeks, opens up deep questions of their future direction. A new contract offer to Marco Silva has stayed unsigned since November. The manager who re-established a Premier League club is free to field offers. Europe, a long-term ambition, veers beyond reach. Silva has never received sufficient backing to achieve that goal, an opinion he has freely expressed. To achieve it now might keep him Silva at Fulham but such outcome probably now relies on permutations beyond his control. Continue reading...

Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) is in a difficult spot right now. It has a number of blockbuster drugs nearing the end of their patent protection, which will likely lead to material revenue declines.

Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) is in a difficult spot right now. It has a number of blockbuster drugs nearing the end of their patent protection, which will likely lead to material revenue declines. It has fallen behind in the GLP-1 weight-loss drug race. And its payout ratio is worryingly high. Here's why you might want to buy it anyway. As the short list of problems above highlights, Pfizer is not hitting on all cylinders right now. Wall Street knows this, which helps explain why the pharmaceutical company's stock has fallen more than 50% from its 2021 highs. To be fair, that high was partly driven by over-enthusiastic investors, who priced in years of COVID vaccine revenues that didn't materialize. But given the company's long and successful history, investors still seem overly pessimistic about Pfizer's future. Image source: Getty Images. Continue reading

Putin Rips NATO Aggression At Scaled-Down Victory Day Parade As Ceasefire Holds By many accounts Russia's Saturday Victory Day parade and memorial observances in Moscow's Red Square were once again muted and somewhat scaled down compared to the immense pageantry which marked the pre-Ukraine war years. President Putin used the occasion while speaking in front of thousands of military personnel and flanked by a handful of world leaders to take swipes at NATO and the West, saying he's fighting "just" war and called Ukraine an "aggressive force" that is being "armed and supported by the whole bloc of NATO" . Pool Photo via AP "The great feat of the generation of victors inspires the soldiers carrying out the goals of the special military operation today," Putin said . "They are confronting an aggressive force armed and supported by the entire NATO bloc. And despite this, our heroes move forward ." He added: "I firmly believe that our cause is just . " The three-day Ukraine ceasefire announced and backed by President Trump appears to be holding, as no drone attacks have been registered on Moscow or other parts of the country. Large-scale drone waves were coming on a daily basis throughout last week. Massive bombardment of Ukraine has also ceased. Ukraine's Zelensky had reportedly ordered his armed forces to adhere to the short ceasefire : Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky issued a decree on Friday (May 8) ordering the Ukrainian military not to attack the parade . He also confirmed that his government would adhere to the ceasefire and the prisoner swap of 1,000 detainees from each side. "Red Square is less important to us than the lives of Ukrainian prisoners who can be returned home," Zelensky said, referring to the historic site in Moscow where the annual event is held. The Kremlin has over the past days repeatedly warned that Kiev would come under immense bombing if the parade did get attacked, and went so far as to tell foreign diplomats they should ev...

Manchester United have played some exhilarating football during a stirring run of victories since Michael Carrick took interim charge in January, but this was not one of those days. Having beaten arch-rivals Liverpool at a raucous Old Trafford last weekend to qualify for next season’s Champions League, this was a comedown from that great high and a sobering reminder of the task still facing Carrick to make United a major force again. Given that they made five changes, a lack of fluency was perhaps to be expected and the fact that United left disappointed not to have picked up an 11th win from 15 games under Carrick was indicative of their recent progress.

Real estate stocks underperformed the broader markets but eked out gains on the back of individual company earnings announcements.

Real estate stocks underperformed the broader markets but eked out gains on the back of individual company earnings announcements. The sector had a mediocre start to May 2026 but remained strongly in the positive territory on a year-to-date basis. This week, the S&P 500 Real Estate Index Sector ( SP500-60 ) increased 0.06% to close at 281.85 points, while the accompanying State Street Real Estate Select Sector SPDR ETF ( XLRE ) was up 0.02% to $44.41. The Dow Jones REIT Indx Equity REIT Total Return Index ( REIT:IND ) added 0.57%, while the FTSE Nareit All Equity REITs index advanced 0.56%. Among largecap stocks, Healthpeak Properties ( DOC ) led the gainers, adding 19.61% from the prior week to $19.64. This week, the healthcare REIT delivered Q1 top- and bottom-line beats and lifted its full-year guidance slightly. Lamar Advertising ( LAMR ) (+12.53% W/W to $157.93) followed with positive Q1 financial results . KE Holdings ( BEKE ) from China was also a significant gainer, advancing 10.61% from the prior week to $18.87. The week saw Goldman Sachs upgrade the stock to Buy from Neutral on the back of a potential recovery in China's property market and attractive valuation after a sell-off since late January. CoStar Group ( CSGP ) led the losers in the category, retreating 5.62% from the prior week to $32.77. Notably, Nasdaq Global Indexes said late Friday that Lumentum Holdings is set to replace the real estate services provider on the Nasdaq-100 index later this month. Meanwhile, CEO Andy Florance added 2.5M CSGP stocks late last week despite a dramatic fall in the stock's value year-to-date. Realty Income ( O ) (-2.96% W/W to $61.92) and American Tower ( AMT ) (-2.80% W/W to $176.53) were the other notable losers. Realty Income's Q1 earnings and revenue topped consensus, but its same-store rental growth rate decelerated, and its full-year FFO guidance boost remained below the consensus estimate. For midcap gainers, Americold Realty Trust ( COLD ) led the pack with ...

ArLawKa AungTun/iStock via Getty Images Introduction Shares of Orion Properties Inc. ( ONL ) have notably outperformed U.S. REIT peers held in the Vanguard Real Estate Index Fund ETF ( VNQ ) in 2026, benefiting from cheap valuations and refinancing/deleveraging progress. Even so, ONL shares remain marginally lower compared with my previous coverage back in September 2025, when ONL had recently rejected a takeover offer of $2.75/share by Kawa Capital. ONL recently launched a strategic review of its business, although no concrete decisions were disclosed alongside Q1 2026 results. After reviewing the REIT's latest financials, I confirm my previous Buy rating on the shares, with my bullish investment thesis briefly summarized alongside two distinct investment outcomes: As part of the strategic review, ONL may decide to pursue a sale to a strategic buyer, which would allow for better allocation of the currently elevated administrative overhead. Alternatively, ONL may decide to remain an independent company, pursuing incremental deleveraging and gradual portfolio growth outside the office sector. In the meantime, ONL shares remain attractively valued at 4x the expected Core FFO (Funds From Operations) in 2026, or a market-implied cap rate of about 12.2% following recent disposals of vacant properties. Q1 2026 Results Overview ONL reported Core FFO of $0.21/share , up 10.5% Y/Y as ONL benefited from lower interest costs. Indeed deleveraging has been a major focus for the company in recent quarters, with ONL selling two properties in Q1 2026 and and extra 7 properties post-quarter end, bringing its net debt to around $400 million (pro-forma for the extra disposals in Q2 2026 and restricted cash). As the company has been selling largely vacant properties and adding a property with 100% occupancy during Q1 2026, the occupancy rate has naturally staged a notable improvement to 83.1%, up 8.8% Y/Y. The occupancy gains also come against the backdrop of persistently high capital ...

Emissions understated by factor of five in Essex plans for tech giant, while Greystoke’s Lincolnshire plans show similar error Developers working for Google have significantly misstated how much carbon two proposed AI datacentres will contribute to the UK’s total emissions in planning documents reviewed by the Guardian. The tech company wants to build two huge datacentres – one 52-hectare (130 acre) project in Thurrock and another at an airfield in North Weald, both in Essex. To do so, developers are required to submit planning documents calculating how much carbon these projects will emit as a proportion of the UK’s total carbon footprint. Continue reading...

Showdown between Musk and Altman has rendered the world’s most wealthy comical under egalitarian eye of court For the past couple of weeks, on the fourth floor of a courthouse on a quiet street in downtown Oakland, the world’s richest man and one of the world’s most valuable startups have been at war over the future of artificial intelligence. Being one of the reporters in the room has felt like watching an updated, opposite-coast version of Tom Wolfe’s The Bonfire of the Vanities – ambition, ego, greed and the spectrum of social class on full display. The supporting cast has included Elon Musk fanboys, a stern judge and a who’s-who of Silicon Valley’s most influential people. Continue reading...

Here is a scenario that should concern every enterprise architect shipping autonomous AI systems right now: An observability agent is running in production. Its job is to detect infrastructure anomalies and trigger the appropriate response. Late one night, it flags an elevated anomaly score across a production cluster, 0.87, above its defined threshold of 0.75. The agent is within its permission boundaries. It has access to the rollback service. So it uses it. The rollback causes a four-hour outage. The anomaly it was responding to was a scheduled batch job the agent had never encountered before. There was no actual fault. The agent did not escalate. It did not ask. It acted, confidently, autonomously, and catastrophically. What makes this scenario particularly uncomfortable is that the failure was not in the model. The model behaved exactly as trained. The failure was in how the system was tested before it reached production. The engineers had validated happy-path behavior, run load tests, and done a security review. What they had not done is ask: what does this agent do when it encounters conditions it was never designed for? That question is the gap I want to talk about. Why the industry has its testing priorities backwards The enterprise AI conversation in 2026 has largely collapsed into two areas: identity governance (who is the agent acting as?) and observability (can we see what it's doing?). Both are legitimate concerns. Neither addresses the more fundamental question of whether your agent will behave as intended when production stops cooperating. The Gravitee State of AI Agent Security 2026 report found that only 14.4% of agents go live with full security and IT approval. A February 2026 paper from 30-plus researchers at Harvard, MIT, Stanford, and CMU documented something even more unsettling: Well-aligned AI agents drift toward manipulation and false task completion in multi-agent environments purely from incentive structures, no adversarial prompting req...

The 360 Vis Nav impressed us with its exceptionally powerful carpet-cleaning performance. | Photo: Jennifer Pattison Tuohy / The Verge. If you’re tired of running your vacuum multiple times just to get the dirt and debris out of the carpets in your living room, Dyson’s 360 Vis Nav is worth a look. It’s one of the more powerful robot vacuums currently available, and now through May 11th (or while supplies last), it’s on sale at Woot for an all-time low of $279.99 ($919 off) with a full two-year warranty. Dyson 360 Vis Nav robot vacuum cleaner Where to Buy: $1199 $279.99 at Woot The last-gen 360 Vis Nav offers a whopping 65 air watts of suction, allowing it to pull dirt, dust, and pet hair from carpets impressively well. In her brief time testing the robovac, my colleague Jennifer Pattison Tuohy said the Dyson “demolished a pile of dry oatmeal in seconds,” adding that she briefly worried it might even suck up the tassels on her large rug (it didn’t). By comparison, many robot vacuums — including Dyson’s new $1,200 Spot + Scrub AI — require multiple passes to fully eradicate the same kind of mess on your floor. What’s more, the robovac’s small, D-shaped design and the location of its ultra-fluffy brush allow it to dig into edges and corners more effectively than many of the more roundish robot vacuums, while its lower profile lets it easily get under most beds and sofas. The roomy 500ml dustbin also means you likely won’t need to empty it too often, while Dyson’s built-in handle and terrific quick-release button make removing said bin a relatively simple task when it’s time to do so. While it is undeniably powerful, it’s worth noting that the 360 Vis Nav lacks a few features found on some of its more modern rivals. Although its navigation worked well enough during our testing, it lacks AI-powered obstacle avoidance and doesn’t come with a self-emptying dock. Battery life is also relatively short at around 65 minutes per charge. Nonetheless, if your top priority is quic...

The age you file for Social Security is one of the most important factors influencing your benefits, and it could affect your payments by hundreds of dollars per month. You can begin claiming as early as age 62, but waiting longer will earn you larger checks. Delay until age 70, and you can maximize your monthly payment. Research suggests that age 70 is the ideal age to file when it comes to finances. In fact, a 2019 United Income study found that 57% of retirees could earn more in lifetime income by filing at 70, with the average retired household forgoing around $111,000 in total by filing at the "sub-optimal" age.
