Russia’s Sheskharis oil terminal at the Black Sea port of Novorossiysk resumed loadings over weekend, bringing some relief to the global market amid the Middle East conflict. The tankers Psara I and Hanuman are currently moored at the first and second berths respectively, according to the ship-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg. The vessel Briont is also at berth seven, according to the port agent. Resumption of flows from the key Russian oil facility eases some pressure to global supplies as several key producers in the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia, cut production because of the near-blockage of the Strait of Hormuz. The Sheskharis oil terminal has been shut since it was attacked last Monday, with drone strikes hitting six loading births out of eight, a person familiar with the details said a week ago. Russia’s oil-pipeline operator Transneft PJSC, which operates the terminal, didn’t immediately respond to a request for a comment.

Elon Musk took a playful swipe at CNBC host Jim Cramer, referencing the “Inverse Cramer” meme. On Monday, Musk reacted with a laughing emoji on X to a 16-year-old video of Cramer, who had written off Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) as a sound investment. Musk’s response brought attention to the “Inverse Cramer” meme, which posits that contradicting Cramer’s advice often results in significant profits. In another post, Musk took a dig at Cramer’s prediction of no de-escalation in the U.S.-Iran conflict, in response to a post on the same. This insinuation further supports the “Inverse Cramer” meme, implying that the opposite of Cramer’s forecasts frequently transpires. “Phew, now I can rest easy…Inverse Cramer is incredible,” wrote Musk. Tesla Soars Despite Cramer's Doubts Musk’s comments come as crude oil prices soared above the $100 amid the escalating U.S-Iran war. Cramer, late Sunday, warned, “A sudden oil shock is always bad for stocks,” adding, “I don’t see a path to de-escalation.” The CNBC host expressed skepticism of a repeat of 2022 or “worse.” As for Tesla, since Cramer’s doubtful remarks in 2010, the EV maker’s market cap has soared from under $2 billion to more than $1 trillion by 2026. "Inverse Cramer" Meme The “Inverse Cramer” meme has gained traction among traders, as it suggests that going against Cramer’s advice can lead to substantial returns.

Just a month ago, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde declared that inflation was in a “good place.” With Europe now hurtling toward another energy crisis, traders are signaling a very different view. Markets are betting on two ECB interest rates hikes this year — a more dramatic move than in the US, where cuts are still anticipated. Driving the shift are intensifying concerns that surging energy prices will squeeze households and undercut growth, especially in Europe given its dependence on imported fuel. “The huge supply-side shock is very relevant,” said Luigi Buttiglione , chief executive of LB Macro SA. “For inflation targeters, like the ECB and the BOE, all this means much higher inflation forecasts and a mounting need to start hiking rates sooner rather than later.” With war in the Middle East stretching into a second week, traders are zeroing in on Europe’s energy vulnerabilities and how that will ripple across markets. In particular, they’re drawing comparisons with 2022 when Russia’s invasion of Ukraine sent inflation soaring and the ECB had to tighten monetary policy dramatically. Europe’s stock and bond markets have fallen in unison since the conflict began, and the euro has weakened sharply against the dollar. Read More: ECB Rate-Hike Bets Test Officials’ Attempts to Keep Their Cool On Monday, German bonds slumped, led by short-dated notes that are the most sensitive to changes in monetary policy. The two-year yield jumped as much as 16 basis points to 2.47%, before paring the move to 2.39%. Italian bonds suffered from a broader rush out of riskier assets, widening their 10-year spread over safer German peers by five basis points to around 80 basis points. UK markets have also seen dramatic moves. The change in Bank of England pricing has been even greater than the ECB since the war broke out, and pricing now reflects expectations that BOE will hike rates once, instead of cutting twice. Two-year gilt yields surged as much as 30 basis point...

carminesalvatore/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Introduction The last time I covered Molson Coors Beverage Company ( TAP ), I rated them a Buy, saying that the “Market Overreaction Creates A Compelling High-Yield Value Opportunity,” highlighting their strong financials and excellent double-digit yield despite the ongoing headwinds. With an overall fine report released recently, a new 2030 plan that focuses on cost savings, network improvements, and investments in their future-facing brands, TAP remains a Buy, being backed by strong and resilient cash flow and a healthy balance sheet that should help them withstand near-term macro pressure. Internal Developments Molson Coors Beverage Company IR TAP reported a mixed Q4, with their non-GAAP EPS beating the market’s estimates but the revenue missing by a bit, while the underlying FCF dropped by 8% to $1.14 billion. This is not bad at all given the increase in CAPEX to $716.6 million (compared to $674.1 million in 2024), the tariff impact, and wider macro pressure. Molson Coors Beverage Company IR Regarding the outlook, TAP continues to expect macro pressure, with relatively flat net sales and a drop in income and EPS due to a ~$125 million hit from tariffs (prior to the Supreme Court’s decision) and pressure from the macro environment combined with their relatively high fixed cost structure, which they're working on improving. Still, they expect the FCF to remain relatively stable at ~$1.1 billion, while the CAPEX would be rebased at ~$650 million per year, which remains a strong amount for a ~$8.78 billion market cap company. Molson Coors Beverage Company IR The company also talked about their 2030 plans, with $450 million in cost savings over the next three years, aiming at modernizing their capabilities and leveraging their core brands to fund the future-facing ones like the Beyond Beer portfolio and Above Premium Beer (standing to benefit from premiumization and other long-term trends), while also taking advantag...

Cathie Wood, CEO of Ark Invest, is a prominent figure on Wall Street. Some might advise long-term investors to steer clear of her fund's actively managed ETFs, as some analyses suggest she has significantly lagged the market over the past decade. Even so, some of her picks are worth holding on to for the next decade (and beyond). Let's consider two of them: Robinhood Markets (HOOD 4.23%) and Roku (ROKU 2.49%). 1. Robinhood Markets Robinhood is slowly fulfilling its mission to democratize finance and make services otherwise reserved for the wealthy accessible to everyone. The company helped pioneer the commission-free trading model, which it offers alongside many other products and services through the kind of easy-to-use, interactive app we have all become accustomed to. Robinhood's financial results over the past two years have been excellent. In 2025, the company's revenue increased 52% year over year to $4.5 billion, while net income rose 33% to $1.9 billion. Robinhood could tap into more growth opportunities. It is ramping up its Gold premium service, which creates a recurring source of revenue. It is also expanding its service portfolio. Notably, it is doubling down on prediction markets and has recently launched a tax-filing service for high-net-worth users.

Given this market's volatility, the financial specialist's revenue from that segment can be unpredictable. Robinhood's shares also look rather expensive.

Key Points W.W. Grainger isn’t the most glamorous industrial stock to consider. The shares could benefit from increasing U.S. industrial activity. The company is devoted to returning cash to shareholders. 10 stocks we like better than W.W. Grainger › The industrial sector has its share of glamorous names and story stocks. Caterpillar, Deere, and some large-cap aerospace and defense firms check those boxes. However, the group, the sixth-largest sector in the S&P 500, still includes some companies that aren't exactly charismatic. Some may be downright boring, but there are examples of boring being beautiful, and W.W. Grainger (NYSE: GWW) could prove to be one. 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 » The industrial parts supplier has some credibility as a hidden gem for multiple reasons, including its underappreciated business model and a four-figure price tag that likely keeps some retail investors at bay. Fortunately, there's more to like with the Grainger story. Boring, but catalyst-rich Founded nearly a century ago, Grainger operates in the maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) space. Putting the corporate jargon aside, the company sells an array of products that aren't "sexy," but are essential in helping factories, warehouses, and other commercial enterprises function on a day-to-day basis. One interesting thing about that industry is that it's fragmented. There are large players such as Grainger and Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), as well as a slew of smaller contenders. So yes, there's competition, but scale is essential, and Grainger has that, confirming its status as a wide-moat name. Here's one way to look at Grainger. Say you're the manager of a widget factory that employs 100 people. It's possible that, to keep things running smoothly, several hundred, or maybe even thousands, of part...
