Wall Street is a bit of a fishbowl, with many industry participants hyper-focused on the short term. This is why you see lemming-like behavior when big events transpire, leading to often dramatic price moves for stocks and the broader market. Right now, there are a lot of moving parts in the world, and investors are concerned that a recession could be on the horizon. That's not the least bit unreasonable. The bigger issue is what you should do about it. For most investors, the answer is probably nothing. Or, perhaps, even double down on your investment plan if there is a recession. Here's why.

Earnings Call Insights: Mercer International (MERC) Q1 2026 Management view Richard Short (Executive VP, CFO & Secretary) said operating EBITDA was about $8 million, “an increase of $28 million when compared with the fourth quarter's results,” while results were still pressured by “rising fiber costs in both Germany and Canada, alongside weak demand and pricing for pulp and lumber.” Short disclosed a balance-sheet event: “In the first quarter, as a result of the high cost and weak markets for our products, we did not meet the leverage ratio covenant under our German revolving credit facility,” adding, “we successfully obtained a waiver from our lenders for this covenant covering the current quarter and the subsequent 2 quarters.” Short highlighted a major noncash item and bottom-line result: “The current quarter's EBITDA also includes a noncash inventory impairment charge of $22 million,” and “We reported a consolidated net loss of $52 million for the first quarter or $0.78 per share.” Juan Bueno (CEO, President & Director) tied the quarter to operational execution and fiber constraints, saying, “Overall, I was pleased with how our mills ran in Q1. But at the same time, it was frustrating to have to slow down some of them due to either insufficient or too expensive fiber supply.” Bueno introduced a new governance and strategic process focused on financing and liquidity: “we're evaluating strategic alternatives and financing options to enhance our liquidity and financial condition,” and “The Board has appointed a special committee, overseeing management's efforts along these lines.” Outlook Bueno guided to higher near-term input costs, stating, “we expect these increases costs to move more meaningfully and impact Q2,” and quantified: “an increase of between $5 to $10 per ton of pulp on freight costs and around $5 per ton for chemicals.” On pulp pricing, Bueno said, “we expect to see some modest NBSK price improvements in Q2 across all markets with NBHK remaining fair...

美国表示，期望伊朗很快就总统唐纳德·特朗普为结束双方战争提出的最新方案作出回应。而隔夜的冲突对持续一个月的停火构成进一步威胁。 美国国务卿鲁比奥对记者表示，伊朗“应该”在周五给出答复。 伊朗仍未表明是否会接受特朗普周三发出的方案。该方案提议，德黑兰在未来一个月内重新开放霍尔木兹海峡，美国则结束对伊朗港口的封锁。 伊朗外交部发言人Esmail Baghaei向半官方的塔斯尼姆通讯社表示，德黑兰“正在评估中”，但未给出时间表。 这份一页纸文件暗示，只要伊朗接受，战争就将结束。尽管双方此后仍需就伊朗核计划达成协议。 紧张形势有所升级。美国中央司令部表示，美军周五对两艘试图突破封锁的伊朗空载油轮实施空袭，阻止其进入该国一处港口。 美国早些时候打击了伊朗境内的导弹和无人机发射场，称这些目标曾对三艘通过海峡的美军军舰发动袭击。美国中央司令部表示，没有舰船被击中。特朗普在这些交火后称，停火仍然有效。 特朗普面临结束战争的巨大压力，燃料价格飙升让越来越多的美国民众感到反感和沮丧。 伊朗周五批评美国，称其违反了双方达成的停火协议。伊朗还表示，一艘货船在夜间交火中遭击中，造成10名海员受伤。伊朗未说明该船是否为伊朗船只，但表示受伤海员已被送往伊朗境内医院救治。 伊朗外交部在X平台发文称，这些零星冲突凸显出“美国执政当局在正确理解局势以及为摆脱其一手制造的僵局找到合理解决方案方面的混乱和无能”。 阿联酋表示，伊朗周五向该国发射两枚弹道导弹和三架无人机，造成3人中度受伤。 另外，伊朗表示，其在阿曼湾扣押了一艘油轮。该船似乎是一艘运载伊朗本国石油、受制裁的船只。伊朗未解释扣押原因，但称这艘名为Ocean Koi的油轮“试图扰乱伊朗国家的石油出口和利益”。 特朗普已经威胁称，如果伊朗拒绝其条件，将发动更猛烈的打击，这加剧了战争可能延长的风险。 特朗普周四晚在社交媒体上表示：“就像我们今天再次击垮他们一样，如果他们不尽快签署协议，我们未来会打得更狠、更猛烈。” 布伦特原油期货小幅上涨，至每桶约100美元；本周以来下跌了7%，因部分交易员对伊朗接受特朗普方案感到乐观。 责任编辑：丁文武

President Trump has signed off on a plan to fire Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Marty Makary, though insiders caution that the plan is not final and could change, according to several media reports. News of the planned axing comes from inside sources who spoke with The Wall Street Journal , which was then confirmed by reporting from Bloomberg , The Washington Post , and Politico . The Post reported that the administration has not decided who would serve as acting director upon Makary's departure. The planned exit comes after a tumultuous year for Makary, in which the FDA plunged into turmoil and controversy over DOGE cuts, personnel drama , vaccine approvals, gene therapy decisions, abortion pill oversight, and vape regulation.

Artificial intelligence (AI) stocks have been roaring higher over the past several years -- but one key concern interrupted the momentum several months ago. Investors worried about the valuations of certain AI stocks, and this put the brakes on the rally. On top of this, questions about the economy and geopolitical situation prompted investors to take a step away from these market movers and shakers. But, in recent times, as valuation has come down, earnings have shown strength, and the overall market environment has improved, AI stocks have regained momentum. This is great news, particularly for growth investors. But one question remains: How much longer will this last? Billionaire Paul Tudor Jones, known for predicting the Black Monday crash of 1987, offered some insight in an interview with CNBC this week. The hedge fund manager said this rally isn't over and could run for another year or two. Jones told CNBC he recently added to his AI positions, though he didn't specify which stocks or assets he had purchased. He also suggested that when this movement comes to an end, the decline could be significant. This suggests there's still plenty of time to score an AI investing win. With all of this in mind, which stocks should you buy now? Let's consider two that could soar in the near term and have what it takes to manage a future market pullback -- and go on to advance over time. Continue reading
