The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) had already confirmed two cases among British nationals, who are in hospitals in the Netherlands and South Africa. It said a third has been reported on the south Atlantic island of Tristan da Cunha, where the patient remains. Continue reading...

In this article UK10Y Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT British Prime Minister Keir Starmer gives an update on the situation in the Middle East at Downing Street Briefing Room, in London, Britain, March 05, 2026. Jaimi Joy | Via Reuters Early results from local council elections pointed to big losses for the U.K.'s ruling Labour Party on Friday, raising questions about Keir Starmer's future as prime minister. Vote counts pointed to hundreds of Labour councilors losing their seats and the leadership of many local councils changing hands. The predicted result will not affect the composition of parliament in Westminster or change who is in government, but reflects souring sentiment on Starmer's leadership among the electorate. Labour and its main opposition party, the Conservatives, are widely expected to suffer heavy losses, while right-wing Reform UK and the left-wing Green party are anticipated to make major gains. Backbench Labour MPs — parliamentarians without a position in government — are reportedly planning to blame looming losses on the prime minister and demand his resignation. Starmer and his finance minister, Rachel Reeves, have been battling discontent over fiscal policy within their own ranks, while welfare reforms and the appointment of Peter Mandelson — an associate of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein — as U.S. ambassador, have further damaged inter-party relations . Health Minister Wes Streeting, former Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner and Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham are reported to be among the top contenders to replace Starmer. Rayner and Burnham — who is currently ineligible to stand as prime minister because he lacks a seat in parliament — are broadly considered more left-leaning than Starmer. But markets have been supportive of Starmer and Reeves retaining their positions relative to potential alternatives, with U.K. bonds selling off in previous bouts of uncertainty over their political futures. Last July, yields o...

M&G Investment Management is taking profit in technology stocks that have seen rapid gains and is instead seeking undervalued companies with strong fundamentals given volatile markets, said executive Fabiana Fedeli . “We took some profit out of technology. Some of the stocks from the last month had gone up one, two-fold,” Fedeli, its chief investment officer for equities, multi asset and sustainability, said in a Bloomberg TV interview. She said that while such moves might be warranted by fundamentals, there comes a point where the speed of the changes is excessive. She emphasized that trying to trade day-to-day market narratives is “impossible and not the way to create performance.” Executives are “right to be cautious” about the remainder of the year, Fedeli said, pointing out that even if geopolitical tensions ease, oil prices would likely remain elevated at $80-$90 per barrel due to depleted inventories. Her firm has responded with a company-by-company approach to identify supply chain vulnerabilities and energy price exposure. The investment manager continues to focus on three medium-term themes: energy resilience including renewable expansion, infrastructure, and innovation including AI. However, she cautioned that some companies in these sectors carry high debt levels, requiring careful selection in a higher interest-rate environment. Fedeli also revealed a position in UK gilts, noting they have “underperformed most other bonds in the world,” which she believes is “possibly unwarranted” despite concerns about fiscal policy.

Canan turan/iStock via Getty Images Nextdoor Holdings, Inc. ( NXDR ) just reached a major inflection point in the turnaround of the local social business. The company's founder has spent the last year rebuilding the platform while restraining growth and Nextdoor finally reported the fruit of that work. My investment thesis remains ultra bullish on the stock due to the cheap valuation and the return to double-digit growth. Source: Finviz Long Awaited Inflection As the founding CEO undertook the implementation of the new platform last year, Nextdoor pulled back on prioritizing customer acquisition and monetization. The goal was to purely focus on improving the platform before unleashing efforts to recruit users back and boost advertisers. The local social company just returned to growth mode via a big revenue beat in Q1'26. Revenues reached $62 million , nearly $4 million above analyst estimates. Nextdoor cut the adjusted EBITDA losses to a very minimal $0.2 million in the March quarter. Nextdoor officially is back in growth mode with platform weekly active users (WAUs) up 1.3 million sequentially. The number is still only 22.3 million versus a verified neighbor user base topping 110 million and a general user base that interacted with emails up above 46 million when the company shifted to reporting the platform metric. Source: Nextdoor Q1'26 presentation The company is combining the user growth with a booming self-serve ad business tied to local small businesses. Nextdoor grew this ad business by 28% YoY to reach 68% of total revenues. Note, WAUs only grew 1% YoY, so the company has the potential to top this strong self-serve ad growth with meaningful user growth in future quarters to elevate the growth rate. The platform provides a great opportunity for neighbors to find and interact with local businesses. The company is now leaning into higher-quality content using AI to sort posts to focus on the highest-quality content, especially that from professional sources. ...

As he plays a dodgy sheriff in Ben Wheatley’s Normal, Odenkirk will be here to answer your inquiries about a remarkable career that has taken him from Wayne’s World to Saturday Night Live and The Bear Bob Odenkirk has achieved one of the more improbable small-to-big screen transitions in recent years. He was only meant to stick around for four episodes as shady lawyer Saul Goodman in Breaking Bad. Instead, creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould liked what they saw and he became a series regular – and, after that, the unlikely centre of Better Call Saul, widely regarded as one of the finest spin-offs ever made. In 2021, he then popped up as a mild-mannered family man turned bone-crunching action hero in Nobody, a role for which he buffed up for two years. Released during Covid, Nobody was unexpectedly successful, leading to a sequel. Now he’s testing his knack for making deeply questionable characters oddly endearing by playing a dodgy small-town sheriff in Ben Wheatley’s new film, Normal, alongside Henry Winkler as the town mayor.
