Investing.com -- IT hardware stocks have rallied sharply in recent months, but Morgan Stanley warned that peak valuations and mounting cyclical risks make the sector vulnerable to negative earnings revisions in the second half of the year. In a note to clients, analyst Erik Woodring said hardware stocks, excluding Apple, now trade at 26 times next-twelve-months price-to-earnings, which is a 10-turn premium versus the prior valuation peak, an all-time high relative to the S&P 500, and a premium to blue chips including Nvidia. The firm noted that earnings revision breadth is near 15-year peak levels. Despite reflecting near-term spending resilience in its above-consensus April and July quarter forecasts, Morgan Stanley believes "the market is missing 'the forest through the trees' as pull-forward, memory inflation/supply shortages, and macro create downside margin/EPS risk in 2H." The firm flagged three specific risks, including a once-in-a-generation memory supercycle with memory up more than 600% year-on-year, widespread supply chain shortages, and an increasingly volatile macroeconomic backdrop. Morgan Stanley maintained its cautious stance on the group, though it acknowledged the risks are more likely to crystallize in the second half than in the current earnings cycle. Among names heading into results, the firm said Dell's setup is the most tactically positive, followed by HPE and Xerox. Conversely, Morgan Stanley flagged HPQ and NetApp as carrying the greatest risk of margin and earnings per share guidance cuts this quarter, with both carrying Underweight ratings.

Walmart Tumbles On Disappointing Guidance, Warns Low-Income Consumers Drowning Extending concerns about US consumer weakness - now that the bumper OBBBA tax refund period is over - after yesterday's earnings by Home Depot and Target, this morning Walmart reported Q1 earnings (the last big company to report, rounding out earnings season) and warned that fuel costs are squeezing the company’s bottom line and could lead to higher prices for shoppers. In the latest quarter, the world’s largest retailer said comparable sales in US stores rose 4.1%, excluding fuel, in the latest quarter, slightly better than the 4.0% Wall Street analysts were expecting. That was the good news; the bad news is that Walmart also forecast adjusted profit for the second quarter that missed analysts’ expectations. The results show that the company continues to gain market share across income levels with its focus on low prices, fast delivery and wide assortment. But the emphasis on affordability is facing pressure as inflation accelerates and the conflict in Iran drives up fuel prices. Here is a snapshot of what WMT just reported, starting with the highlights: Revenue $177.75 billion, +7.3% y/y, beating estimates of $175.06 billion Walmart-only US stores comparable sales ex-gas +4.1%, estimate +4% Sam’s Club US comparable sales ex-gas +3.9%, estimate +3.59% Adjusted EPS 66c vs. 61c y/y, in line with exp. 66c Gross margin 24.3%, in line with exp. 24.3% Going down the line: Change in US E-Commerce sales +26%, estimate +18.6% Operating cash flow $4.74 billion, -12% y/y Adjusted operating income $7.67 billion, estimate $7.69 billion US e-commerce sales grew 26% during the quarter, fueling growth in the company’s biggest market. Sales of grocery and general merchandise rose mid single-digits. General merchandise, which consists of apparel, electronics and other discretionary items, gained the most share in five years. Walmart also said that transactions at Walmart US rose 3%, while average ticket w...

Key Points Growth came across the board and across all income levels. Its well-oiled growth engine shows no signs of slowing down. Management also raised guidance, even while remaining conservative in its outlook. 10 stocks we like better than TJX Companies › Investors looking for signs of life in retail just got a loud one from TJX Companies (NYSE: TJX). The parent company of TJ Maxx, Marshalls, HomeGoods, and Sierra, delivered a solid first quarter for fiscal 2027, significantly beating analyst expectations. The stock is looking stronger than it has in years. But after such a strong run, is TJX still a buy? The answer increasingly looks like yes -- though not without a few caveats. 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 » A blowout quarter across the board Overall, the apparel and home fashions retailer had an extremely good quarter. Net sales increased 9 percent to $14.3 billion, and comparable sales rose 6 percent versus the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EPS (earnings per share) increased 29 percent to $1.19. That was well above the analysts' estimate of $1.00. What made the quarter even better was the breadth in growth. Comparable sales grew across all four main divisions, including HomeGoods (+9%), TJX Canada (+7%), Marmaxx (which houses TJ Maxx, Marshalls, and Sierra) (+6%), and TJX International (+4%). This is impressive because retailers sometimes have a strong quarter because of one hot category or temporary promotions. TJX's momentum looked much broader. What's noteworthy is that management repeatedly pointed out during the earnings call that, across both the apparel and home categories, growth was driven by all income levels and regions, and by both higher customer traffic and larger basket sizes. Plainly put, TJX isn't just winning over lower-income shoppers. Higher-income consume...

More than 100 young people have died after leaving the care of social services in England in the past year, according to data released by the government. In the year to April 2026 there were 106 reported deaths of care leavers, with 91 deaths reported in the 12 months before. The majority of those who died were aged 16 to 21. Although a requirement to report these deaths was introduced in 2023, ministers believe the true figure is probably higher. Labour launched an urgent review into the deaths in April to try to identify where support systems may have failed. Announcing the review, the government said it was a “horrifying fact” that a disproportionate number of people who had been in care died young, often not having had appropriate support. In 2025, 81,770 children in England were under the care of local authorities. The latest deaths of young care leavers, released on Thursday, include transgender people, young women who gave birth and had their babies removed from them by social services, and young unaccompanied asylum seekers. Many deaths were not a result of natural causes. They include Samare Gerezgihir, 23, from Eritrea and Issa Ali Musa Abdulrahman Barakat, 18, from Chad, who were stabbed to death in 2024, and Ahmad Mamdouh Al Ibrahim, 16, an unaccompanied child asylum seeker in care, who was murdered in 2025. Two-thirds of children and young people in the care system have been abused or neglected by their primary carer. Until December 2023 local authorities were not required to report deaths of care leavers. They must now report them through the serious incident notification system. Benny Hunter, the co-founder and research lead at Da’aro Youth Project, which works with young unaccompanied asylum seekers and refugees mainly from eastern Africa and has documented some of their untimely deaths, said the figures were “unspeakably tragic”. He added: “Following our intervention in 2021, the government agreed to start asking local authorities to tell them when ...

DNY59/E+ via Getty Images OK, here is the $1 trillion question: Why do people still believe CEO Elon Musk's robotaxi promises and keep buying or holding Tesla, Inc. ( TSLA ) stock? OK, I don't know the answer, but I know that they shouldn't. Tesla stock has increased by about 37% over the past year, from $295 on June 6, 2025, to $405 on May 19, 2026. Much of this appears to be based on Tesla's robotaxi promises, despite Waymo deploying an autonomous fleet of more than 3,500 vehicles in 11 cities and raising funds at a $126 billion valuation. Recent Robotaxi Claims and Promises by Tesla So, let's consider Tesla's robotaxi promises and the facts. In my November 2025 article, Tesla: More Unrealistic Promises , I detailed his broken promises. Here are the most recent ones. No accidents? On the recent Q1/26 Earnings Call , Elon Musk emphasized that Tesla had had no roboTaxi Accidents. We don't want to have a single accident or injury with the expansion of Robotaxi. And we have, to the credit of the team, not had a single one to date. Then this was repeated and amplified by Ashok Elluswamy, Executive Officer: Like Elon mentioned, we are absolutely focused on safety, and so far, we have 0 incidents, and that's what NHTSA filing also shows. In a recent (May 15) article and disclosure, Tesla reveals what happened in 17 robotaxi crashes, contradicting Elon's claim of no accidents. The 17 unique Tesla ADS incidents span from July 2025 through March 2026 — the entire period of the company’s “Robotaxi” testing in Austin . Every single one involves a 2026 Model Y with the ADS engaged and a safety monitor present. To be fair, many of the accidents weren't Tesla's fault, but some were. And some involved safety drivers or remote operators driving the car. Nevertheless, some were caused by Tesla. Claiming Waymo bus crash? On the same earnings call, Elon Musk went out of his way to claim a false story about an Alphabet ( GOOG ) Waymo crashing into a bus. or, I mean, there was one kind...

SpaceX is poised to launch its gargantuan Starship rocket on its twelfth major test flight on Thursday, part of a high-stakes mission as the Elon Musk -led company preps for the largest initial public offering in history. The launch, targeted for 5:30 p.m. local time from SpaceX’s Starbase facility in South Texas, marks the debut flight of the third iteration of the rocket, dubbed Version 3 or V3. The upgraded vehicle is meant to serve as a major improvement over previously launched Starship prototypes, while increasing the rocket’s power and capability . The highly anticipated mission comes a day after SpaceX filed publicly for an IPO as soon as June, revealing billions in losses and the super-voting share plan allowing Musk to keep the company under his control . The company has been gearing up for a public offering that seeks to raise as much as $75 billion at a valuation of potentially $2 trillion. Details of the IPO, including the size and timing, could still change. Fueling its valuation, SpaceX has proposed a number of ambitious initiatives that require Starship to be fully operational, including launching as many as one million satellites into orbit to serve as AI data centers. Designed to carry cargo and humans to distant destinations in space, Starship is also meant to unlock Musk’s ultimate goal of starting a human settlement on Mars. In the near term, though, Musk has said that SpaceX will focus first on sending humans to the moon. The company holds $4 billion worth of contracts with NASA to land astronauts on the lunar surface, and SpaceX has its own plans to start a moon base. But first the company needs to show significant progress with Starship’s development, which has been marred by explosive setbacks . “This Starship launch is absolutely the most high-stakes one we have seen so far, both because NASA’s lunar architecture is in flux and under a lot of scrutiny and because SpaceX is positioned for an IPO and has spoken about the importance of Starshi...

Governments are unlikely to roll out massive fiscal rescue packages in response to the latest global energy shock, despite growing investor expectations for 2022-style intervention, according to TS Lombard. In a May 21 research note, the consultancy said policymakers are far more constrained than they were during the Ukraine energy crisis four years ago, when European governments unveiled support measures worth roughly 5% of GDP over two years. “Bond yields are structurally higher now,” TS Lombard wrote, adding that governments have rediscovered the power of “bond vigilantes” after the UK market turmoil triggered by former Prime Minister Liz Truss’s unfunded tax-cut plans in 2022. “Governments across Europe will not want to trigger their Liz Truss moments,” the report said. Investors have increasingly focused on whether governments would cushion households and businesses from rising fuel and electricity costs as tensions in the Middle East disrupt global energy supplies. But TS Lombard argued that support announced so far has been modest compared with the response to the Ukraine war. Portugal has unveiled the largest package to date, worth about 0.3 percentage points of GDP, which TS Lombard described as “puny” relative to earlier bailouts. The firm also said limited fiscal support reduces the likelihood of aggressive monetary tightening by central banks, despite higher inflation from energy prices. Unlike 2022, labour markets are no longer overheating, lowering the risk of persistent wage-driven inflation, it said.

ALPHARETTA, Ga., May 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Micron Biomedical today announced the grand opening of its world-class manufacturing facility spanning more than 26,000 square feet in Alpharetta, Georgia. The opening marks the most advanced commercial-scale manufacturing site for Micron’s dissolvable vaccine and therapeutic technology in the world and positions the company for pivotal clinical trials that will accelerate the availability of needle-free vaccines and therapeutics that can be self-administered at home. “A significant body of evidence has shown that our dissolvable microarray technology is as effective as — or more effective than — conventionally injected medicines. Parents, patients, government officials, drug developers, public health leaders, and payers also prefer needle-free vaccines and therapeutics that are simpler and more cost-effective to transport and store,” said Steven Damon, CEO of Micron Biomedical. “Our novel technology requires equally innovative manufacturing equipment capable of scaling production, and this facility brings us one step closer to making that vision a reality.” Micron’s technology uses a dissolvable microarray “button” that is applied directly to the skin and, when pressed, painlessly delivers medications that dissolve in the uppermost layers of skin. The facility houses all of the equipment and manufacturing capabilities to design and produce Micron’s technology at scale including R&D facilities, wet labs, dry labs, storage and professional office spaces. Micron Biomedical’s grand opening ceremony was attended by business leaders, elected officials, investors, members of academia and other stakeholders. Representatives from the CDC were also in attendance as recently the CDC launched its first-ever clinical trial of a needle-free vaccine, evaluating a novel rotavirus vaccine, CC24, delivered via Micron Biomedical’s dissolvable microarray technology. The trial, at Emory University, builds on research, published in The L...
