Key Points Geopolitical conflicts are forcing oil prices higher. Oil stocks with domestic production face less risk of volume disruptions. 10 stocks we like better than Occidental Petroleum › For years, Warren Buffett has continued to pile into one popular U.S.-based oil stock. That oil stock now comprises roughly 4% of Berkshire Hathaway's entire publicly traded portfolio. Now that oil prices are surging, this classic Buffett stock looks more promising than ever. That's especially the case given the company now has a strong advantage versus dozens of competing oil stocks. Occidental Petroleum produces a majority of its oil in the U.S. Occidental Petroleum (NYSE: OXY) is clearly one of Warren Buffett's favorite oil stocks right now. Before he departed as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway in December, he left the firm with a $10.9 billion position in Occidental Petroleum -- a bet that has gradually risen in value since his first purchase in 2022. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » When Buffett first invested in OXY stock in 2019, oil prices were around $50 to $60 per barrel.At the start of this year, oil prices remained below $60 per barrel. Due to recent geopolitical tensions, however, oil prices are surging once again, briefly surpassing $115 per barrel, only to settle at roughly $80 per barrel within a few days. Some analysts believe $100 per barrel pricing may be ahead yet again -- a big win for upstream oil companies that rely on rising prices to boost profits. A global domino effect is now happening due to current and expected oil production disruptions across the Middle East. China, for example, recently banned its refineries from exporting any refined fuel. The Strait of Hormuz, meanwhile -- a major chokepoint that processes 20% of global oil transportation -- faces severe uncertainty ...

Nearly One-Third Of People Living In North America Believe That World Will End During Their Lifetimes Authored by Michael Snyder via TheMostImportantNews.com, We live at a time when millions upon millions of us feel deeply unsettled. The news is filled with constant headlines about war, political chaos, economic problems and major natural disasters. A lot of people feel like humanity’s story is building up to some sort of a crescendo, and they are not optimistic about what that will mean. In fact, a new study conducted by researchers at the University of British Columbia has discovered that nearly one-third of the people living in the United States and Canada actually believe that the world will end within their lifetimes … Almost a third of people living in the USA and Canada believe that the world will end within their lifetime. According to new research, this could affect how they view the challenges facing society, though this very much depends on what kind of apocalypse the individual is envisioning. I was quite surprised to learn that so many people believe that the end of the world is rapidly approaching, and so were the researchers … “Belief in the end of the world is surprisingly common across North America, and it’s significantly influencing how people interpret and respond to the most pressing threats facing humanity,” said Dr. Matthew I. Billet, the study’s lead author who conducted the research as a PhD candidate in UBC’s psychology department. He is now a postdoctoral scholar at the University of California, Irvine. The research draws on surveys of more than 3,400 people in the U.S. and Canada. In the U.S. national sample of 1,409 respondents, nearly one‑third said they believe the world will end within their lifetime. Of course the world is not going to end any time soon. But as global events spiral out of control, it will certainly feel like “the world is ending” to much of the population. At this moment, the chaotic war that has erupted in the Middl...

Rivian revealed the specs and pricing details for its pivotal R2 SUV on Thursday, and the company also finally answered a long-burning question: When will customers be able to buy the promised $45,000 base model? That answer is “late 2027,” according to the company’s press materials. And there’s a catch. The language Rivian uses now is that the base model R2 will be “starting around $45,000.” That’s a notable change from how the company was recently promoting that the R2 would be “starting at $45,000″ on its website. (Emphasis mine.) This is not exactly surprising. As TechCrunch first reported last week, Rivian removed the “starting at $45,000” language from its website in February. Also, a lot has changed since Rivian first revealed the R2 in March 2024. The $7,500 federal EV tax credit is gone. Legacy automakers have stopped buying regulatory credits from companies like Rivian, effectively ending a stream of what was ostensibly free money pouring into its coffers. President Trump’s chaotic tariffs have increased the cost of components and materials Rivian uses to make its EVs. In some ways, Rivian has bigger challenges to deal with. Sales of its R1T pickup truck and R1S SUV declined in 2025. Rivian is about to start constructing a giant factory in Georgia where it expects to build hundreds of thousands of R2 SUVs (and, eventually, R3 hatchbacks). The company is also trying to architect what would be one of the fastest electric vehicle launches in U.S. history with its more premium R2 models this year. Rivian is projecting sales of between 20,000-25,000 R2s by the end of 2026. If it succeeds, only Tesla’s Model Y would have reached 20,000 in sales faster.

He noted, "cumulative app downloads as of November last year crossed 2 million" in Japan, and Moomoo was "the most downloaded trading app in Australia in 2025." Product performance in Q4 showed "230,000 net new funded accounts, down 8% quarter-over-quarter, but up 9% year-over-year," with sequential moderation in Hong Kong offset by double-digit growth in Japan and Malaysia.

Earnings Call Insights: Aemetis (AMTX) Q4 2025 Management View Eric McAfee, Co-Founder, Executive Chairman & CEO, highlighted three main takeaways: "our Dairy Renewable Natural Gas platform reached an important milestone during 2025, achieving positive segment net income and EBITDA, while production increased 61% year-over-year in the fourth quarter." He noted that the biogas segment generated $12.2 million in net income in Q4 2025, and expects "strong annual growth in cash flow and profitability from the Biogas segment for the next 4 years, as 45Z is implemented and we continue to expand production." McAfee stated, "during 2025, we continue to advance the mechanical vapor recompression upgrade at our Keyes ethanol plant, which is expected to increase plant cash flow by approximately $32 million per year when completed in 2026." McAfee emphasized, "the 60% increase in the price of low carbon fuel standard credits in the past 9 months since the LCFS was extended by 20 years, and the recent treasury guidance for the 45Z production tax credit are important contributors to our growth in revenue and cash flow." The company reported, "during 2025, the dairy RNG business produced approximately 405,000 MMBtus of renewable natural gas and expanded to 12 operating digesters." Equipment fabrication for H2S cleanup and compression units for 15 digesters is contracted, aiming to double the dairy network.

Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen appearas at a Diwali celebration in the White House in Washington on Oct. 21, 2025. Allison Robbert | Bloomberg | Getty Images Adobe said CEO Shantanu Narayen will step down as CEO after a successor has been named, and remain as chair of the design software company's board. Shares were down 6% in extended trading. Narayen joined Adobe in 1988 as a vice president and general manager, and he became CEO in 2007. Under Narayen, Adobe pushed from software licenses to subscriptions to its Creative Cloud application bundle, and the company is now working to expand through generative artificial intelligence. He sought to acquire fast-growing design software company Figma , but regulators pushed back, and the companies called off the deal, resulting in Adobe paying Figma a $1 billion breakup fee. "On behalf of the Board, I want to recognize Shantanu's contributions as CEO and architect of Adobe's transformation over the past 18 years, and for positioning Adobe for success in the AI-driven era," Frank Calderoni, Adobe's lead independent director, was quoted as saying in a statement . "As we take the next step in succession planning, we are focused on selecting the right leader for this next exciting chapter of the company's growth and are grateful for Shantanu's continued leadership as CEO to ensure a smooth transition." Narayen is lead independent director of Pfizer in addition to his responsibilities at Adobe. In a memo to employees, Narayen wrote that he's staying on the board to support the next Adobe CEO, just as co-founders John Warnock and Charles "Chuck" Geschke did when he became chief. "What attracted me to Adobe 28 years ago was our leadership in creating new market categories, world-class products, a relentless desire to innovate in every functional area of the company and the people I met during the interview process," Narayen wrote. "We have continued to create new markets, deliver world-class products, drive innovation in everything w...

当地时间周四，美国参议院民主党人否决了一项推进动议，该动议旨在推进众议院已通过的一项法案，以重新开放美国国土安全部，并结束已经持续27天的政府停摆。此次停摆已经影响了美国运输安全管理局（TSA）以及其他关键机构的运作。 该动议以51票对46票未获通过。来自宾夕法尼亚州的中间派民主党参议员约翰·费特曼（John Fetterman）是唯一一位与共和党人一起投票、支持推进该拨款法案的民主党人。该动议需要60票才能通过。 这是自2月12日以来，民主党人第四次投票阻止国土安全部拨款法案。 这次投票为当天参议院民主党和共和党围绕如何打破拨款僵局展开的一系列争论画上句号。 民主党人之所以投票反对这项国土安全部拨款法案，是因为其中包含为移民与海关执法局（ICE）和海关与边境保护局（CBP）提供资金。民主党人表示，在移民执法人员在明尼阿波利斯枪击并杀害两名美国公民后，这两个机构需要进行改革。 参议院民主党领袖查克·舒默（Chuck Schumer）在投票前表示：“我们都知道，在如何处理ICE的问题上没有达成一致。很简单，民主党只是希望ICE像美国任何警察部门一样行事——使用搜查令执法，而不是戴着面罩行动。” 参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩（John Thune）则指责民主党人阻挠白宫谈判代表提出的最新方案。该方案旨在对移民执法进行部分改革，以换取重新开放国土安全部。 图恩在参议院发言时表示：“已经多次提出解决方案，最近的一次是在13天前。” 责任编辑：陈钰嘉

Diluted net income per share increased 11.6% to $2.21, compared to $1.98 for the same period in 2024.

Shares of discount retailer Dollar General (DG 6.61%) have surged more than 70% over the past year, as it has been a hot buy in retail. That, however, hasn't always been the case for the stock, as generating strong organic growth has proven to be challenging in the past. On Thursday, the company reported its fourth-quarter earnings numbers. And while they appeared to be strong, they weren't enough to give the stock a boost. Instead, the company's shares declined on the news. Let's look at what may be weighing the stock down and whether its dip in value makes now a good time to add it to your portfolio. Investors are likely worried about future quarters For the fourth quarter, which ended in January, Dollar General reported $10.9 billion in sales, up 5.9% year over year and slightly beating analyst expectations of $10.8 billion. Its per-share profit of $1.93, however, blew past Wall Street's $1.66-per-share estimate. Its same-store sales were up over 3% for the full year. But for the next fiscal year, the company does expect that to slow to between 2.2% and 2.7%. Investors, however, may be worried that the economy could deteriorate due to the war in Iran and its impact on inflation. It's a valid concern, given that CEO Todd Vasos said last year that its customers were struggling and that their financial situation had worsened due to inflation. Dollar General's vulnerable customer base could make it more vulnerable to inflation, and if the company is already projecting a slowdown, its growth rate may be even weaker than expected next year.
