Key Points Constellation Energy reported strong fourth-quarter results last month. The company also signed another deal to supply power to a data center developer. It continues to make progress on its growth strategy. 10 stocks we like better than Constellation Energy › Shares of Constellation Energy (NASDAQ: CEG) rocketed 17.5% in February. It was a big month for the power producer as it reported its fourth-quarter financial results and secured another deal to supply electricity to a data center customer. That followed the acquisition of Calpine, which closed in January. Here's a closer look at what fueled its big move last month and whether investors should buy Constellation Energy stock now following its recent surge. 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 strong end to the year Constellation Energy reported strong fourth-quarter results in late February. The power company generated nearly $6.1 billion of revenue and $2.30 per share of adjusted operating earnings. Both exceeded analysts' expectations (the consensus estimates were $5.6 billion in revenue and $2.25 per share in adjusted operating earnings). This expectation-beating report sent shares soaring. That capped an excellent year for Constellation Energy. Its full-year adjusted operating earnings increased from $8.64 per share to $9.39 per share, powered by favorable market and portfolio conditions. As a result, the company exceeded the mid-point of its earnings guidance range for the fourth straight year. Continued progress on its growth strategy Constellation Energy's strong momentum has continued in early 2026. The company closed its acquisition of Calpine in early January. That deal combined Calpine's leading natural gas and geothermal fleets with Constellation's industry-leading nuclear energy platform. That acquisition i...

I've been working and paying Social Security taxes since I was 16 and got my first job -- and I'm not the only one. Social Security is an earned benefit, so as soon as you start bringing in income, you start contributing to the retirement fund. Since I'll have been paying tax for many decades by the time I get to 62 and become eligible for benefits for the first time, I always thought I would claim Social Security ASAP, once I could. However, I've changed my mind in recent years as I learned more details about the benefits program. Here are three big reasons for my major mindset shift about when I'll begin my benefits. 1. I did the math on how much extra I'd collect if I waited The first big thing that started to prompt my change of heart about Social Security was seeing the math on how much retirement benefits increase if you wait beyond full retirement age (FRA) to claim them. A Social Security claim at 62 results in a 30% reduction in your standard benefit, based on early filing penalties. This means that if, for example, I was on track for a $2,000 monthly Social Security benefit, I'd cut that down to $1,400 by claiming at 62. If, instead, I waited to claim Social Security until 70, though, I'd increase my monthly benefit. The benefits bump would raise my Social Security income by 24%, giving me $2,480 instead. That's $1,080 more each month, assuming my benefit was around that $2,000 level. Doing the math and seeing just how much extra I'd be able to get later in life was definitely enough to get me thinking about changing my retirement planning process. After all, Social Security is protected against inflation, and I'll collect it for life, so maxing it out seems like a no-brainer. 2. I saw the data on lifetime benefits Getting a lot of extra money from Social Security sounds nice, but waiting until 70, when I could claim at 62, did give me pause. After all, I'd be giving up a lot of years of benefits, and I'd need to make sure the higher future income I was co...

The US Defense Department is seeking information for the potential stockpiling of five critical minerals, as the country steps up efforts to reduce risks in the supply chain and bolster domestic feedstock. The Defense Logistics Agency on Wednesday issued notices seeking information for lithium , nickel , tin , chromium and tellurium respectively, including details of interested vendors, products specifications, sources of materials and market conditions, according to notices published on the website Wednesday. The DLA is responsible for managing the National Defense Stockpile, which secures metals for US military needs. The Pentagon’s requests came as the procurement of metals has become a political priority for the US in order to slash reliance on Chinese supplies. Most recently, the White House announced Project Vault , a $12 billion stockpiling initiative for the private sector. The agency said it is making inquiries ahead of the potential acquisition for 550 tons of lithium carbonate, 3,500 tons of nickel, 1,978 tons of London Metal Exchange-grade tin, 37 tons of tellurium and 4,500 short tons of chromium. It also made inquiries about the reprocessing or remelting of 1,978 tons of tin ingots affected by so-called tin pest , a phenomenon where the metal degrades into a powdered form in cold temperatures. That amount of tin would cost nearly $100 million, based on LME prices. The DLA said the notices are for planning purposes only and the deadline to submit the responses is by March 19, adding that companies responded should not expect to receive feedback regarding submissions.

JHVEPhoto Broadcom ( AVGO ) was in the spotlight on Thursday as Wall Street analysts praised the semiconductor and software giant for its “strong” outlook for 2027 that is indicative of continued heavy levels of spending on artificial intelligence. Shares rose more than 6% in premarket trading, while other semiconductor stocks, such as Nvidia ( NVDA ) and AMD ( AMD ), saw fractional moves. “Strong AI outlook of over $100B in FY27 likely proves conservative with expectations to supply 10GW of compute including 1GW+ to AVGO’s 6th announced customer, OpenAI,” Jefferies analyst Blayne Curtis wrote in a note to clients. “The AI spend overhang will still linger, but AVGO made a strong case for their AI revenue to outgrow the market and see continued growth through C28.” Curtis has a Buy rating and a $500 price target on Broadcom. Delving deeper, Curtis pointed to comments made by Broadcom management on the call that they already have 10 gigawatts of demand for fiscal 2027, including 1 gigawatt from the aforementioned OpenAI ( OPENAI ) and 3 gigawatts from Anthropic ( ANTHRO ). And with the company pointing to AI chip revenue surpassing $100B in 2027, Curtis said that may actually be conservative. “Our math suggests revenue per GW was $13B/GW in CY25 rising to just under $18B in CY26 and we would expect this to ramp to $20-25B/GW in 2027, implying potential for AI revenue to actually reach over $200B,” Curtis posited. “Overall, the debate for AVGO (and NVDA) will still be how sustainable cloud capex growth will be into C28 and this call didn’t necessarily answer that question, but this helps provide line of sight to $25-30 of EPS in CY27 (vs. our prior $20 upside case) and we struggle to see how these compute names will remain this cheap,” Curtis added. RBC Capital Markets Srini Pajjuri was also impressed with the outlook for 2027, but said there are some issues that may be out of Broadcom's control. “AVGO has a solid execution track record, and we have little reason to qu...

Tramino/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images Renk Group ( RNKGF ), a major manufacturer of transmissions used in Leopard 2 battle tanks, reported full-year revenue broadly in line with analyst expectations on Thursday, though the company said order timing issues and export restrictions affected its performance. The German engineering firm has been among the companies benefiting from Berlin’s military modernization push and NATO’s broader drive for member states to raise defense spending toward 2% of GDP. Revenue from Renk’s ( RNKGF ) defense division climbed 24% in 2025 to €1.02 billion ($1.19 billion), representing about 74% of total company sales. Despite that growth, Renk shares, up more than 50% over the past year, fell roughly 6% in midday trading. Order timing pressures emerge The company said delays in several naval and research programs pushed expected orders into 2026, weighing on its order intake for the year. Chief Executive Alexander Sagel told reporters the affected contracts had not been canceled but simply postponed. Renk’s expansion has been supported by multi-year defense contracts to supply components for new armored vehicles as well as maintenance and servicing work for existing fleets, which typically carries higher profit margins. Israel export restrictions affect shipments Fourth-quarter results were also impacted by Germany’s restrictions on weapons exports to Israel, Sagel told analysts. Because of the embargo, the company was unable to deliver the full volume of equipment planned for Israeli customers. Berlin halted exports of certain military equipment that could be used in the Gaza Strip amid Israel’s military campaign there. Sagel had previously warned in August that the export limits could pose revenue risks. Israel accounts for roughly 2% to 3% of Renk’s overall business, he said. The CEO added that the company expects clearer guidance on the status of the restrictions within the next four to five weeks, noting that discussions with the G...

President Xi Jinping urged China’s major provincial economies to take the lead in technological innovation and strengthen their resilience to external shocks over the next five years, part of the annual meeting of the National People’s Congress (NPC) – the country’s top legislature – which began in Beijing on Thursday. Addressing deputies from the eastern province of Jiangsu, Xi said the region should be at the forefront of developing “new quality productive forces” – the emerging industries Beijing views as potential drivers of long-term growth – which he deemed crucial to China’s economic sustainability and competitiveness, according to a report from state broadcaster CCTV. Xi called on the coastal province, a manufacturing hub that hosts thousands of small, specialised producers known as “little giant” firms, to achieve breakthroughs in tackling core technologies and to search for new paths to “facilitate the efficient transformation and application of scientific and technological achievements”. Advertisement The province should also work to upgrade traditional industries, expand emerging sectors and make “forward-looking arrangements” for those yet to be discovered, Xi said. The president also urged Jiangsu’s NPC deputies to adopt a “bottom line mindset” – preparing for worst-case scenarios – when guarding against potential risks. Advertisement Leading provincial economies like Jiangsu must strengthen their resilience to external shocks to help stabilise China’s overall economy, Xi said, calling on the province to boost its domestic economic strength, integrate more fully into the national market and expand global trade ties. Xi also asked the deputies to focus on boosting employment and incomes while strengthening Communist Party discipline and anti-corruption efforts.

Abstract Aerial Art/DigitalVision via Getty Images Overview Vermilion Energy ( VET )( VET:CA ) is an oil & natural gas producer that is listed in both the U.S. and Canada. The company has most of its production coming from Canada, but there are also high-margin assets internationally. Vermilion has lately become more focused on natural gas production but also has oil-focused assets in France and Australia. The company reports in Canadian dollars, which is denoted C$ throughout the article. Figure 1 - Source: Vermilion Presentation I have covered Vermilion quarterly over the last few years and my prior articles can be found here . Today's article will focus on the Q4 2025 results that were released yesterday after the close. All my 2025 articles on the company were rated strong buys, but we have seen a rally of around 50% from those levels last year, so even if I remain bullish on Vermilion, I have lowered the rating to a buy. The stock price of Vermilion has, over the last few years, underperformed many peers, which is, in my view, mostly due to the stock being out of favor. The valuation has become more attractive than many peers, partly due to having more financial leverage, which is rarely celebrated when energy prices weaken. The diversified production profile has possibly also been a drag on performance, even if I like the company's asset mix. With all that said, over the last 6 months we have seen the stock price of Vermilion outperform substantially, being up 58% during the period. The recent outperformance is likely due to a combination of factors. The valuation of Vermilion was very depressed 6 months ago, the higher financial leverage has likely provided a boost when energy prices have improved, and natural gas prices have done reasonably well during this period as well. Figure 2 - Source: Koyfin Q4 2025 Results Vermilion reported 121,308 boe/d in production during Q4 2025, which was a 2% increase compared to Q3 2025, and a 45% increase compared to Q4 2024...
