Key Points Filing for Social Security at 62 will reduce your payments by up to 30%. For many retirees, that results in a reduction of hundreds of dollars per month. Before you file, it's wise to consider how claiming early will affect your finances. The $23,760 Social Security bonus most retirees completely overlook › The age you begin taking Social Security will have a profound effect on your retirement, sometimes influencing your benefit amount by hundreds of dollars per month. The average retiree collects roughly $2,000 per month in benefits, but the earlier you file, the less you'll receive. Here's how to determine whether claiming at 62 is right for your retirement. 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 » How your age affects your benefit amount Your benefit amount is based on three main factors: the length of your career, your lifetime earnings, and the age you begin claiming Social Security. To receive the full benefit you're entitled to based on your work history, you'll need to file at your full retirement age (FRA). Your FRA will depend on your birth year, but it's between ages 66 and 67 for everyone. The earlier you file, the smaller your monthly payments will be. Filing at age 62 will reduce your benefits by 30% if you have an FRA of 67. These reductions are permanent, too, so expect to receive smaller checks for the rest of your life if you file early. According to data from the Social Security Administration, the average retiree collects around $592 more per month at age 67 than at 62. At age 70, that difference jumps to $851 per month. Age Average Monthly Benefit Among Retired Workers 62 $1,424 63 $1,436 64 $1,478 65 $1,607 66 $1,807 67 $2,016 68 $2,052 69 $2,097 70 $2,275 This doesn't necessarily mean that claiming early is wrong, as your filing decision will depend on your...
World's Biggest Hedge Funds Crushed By Oil Price Surge We knew something was off when Bloomberg reported yesterday that Balyasny's chief commodities strategist, Damien Courvalin, whom the multi-strat hedge fund poached from Goldman in 2023 after a 16-year span at the bank where he led the bank’s oil research and become one of the most prominent oil analysts on Wall Street, had left the hedge fund ...
World's Biggest Hedge Funds Crushed By Oil Price Surge We knew something was off when Bloomberg reported yesterday that Balyasny's chief commodities strategist, Damien Courvalin, whom the multi-strat hedge fund poached from Goldman in 2023 after a 16-year span at the bank where he led the bank’s oil research and become one of the most prominent oil analysts on Wall Street, had left the hedge fund where he oversaw the fimr's central commodities intelligence effort, including implementation in cross-commodity portfolios, after the rollercoaster moves in oil. We are just guessing, but Courvalin may have been just a bit bearish on oil: after all, he led Goldman’s research when the bank predicted, correctly, a price plunge in early 2020, just before oil prices fell below zero. He also covered gold, agriculture, natural gas and commodity asset allocation through his tenure at the bank. There is another reason why Courvalin was likely bearish: according to Bloomberg, his (now former) employer Balyasny Asset Management declined by 3.5% last week after a 0.4% increase in the two months through February. It wasn't just Balysani: according to Bloomberg, some of the world’s biggest hedge funds suffered hundreds of millions of dollars in losses last week after the war against Iran sent oil prices surging and triggered wild market moves, suggesting that short oil was among the most consensus trades within the hedge fund world, something we warned about in late 2025.

By Sam Tobin LONDON, March 10 (Reuters) - Sony is fighting a London lawsuit worth almost 2 billion pounds ($2.7 billion) that alleges the PlayStation maker's "monopoly position" inflated prices for digital games, in the latest mass consumer case to go to trial in Britain. The Japanese conglomerate is accused of abusing its dominant position by requiring digital games and add-ons for its console to be bought and sold only via its PlayStation Store, making prices higher than for physical games. Sony says it has "invested years and billions" in an integrated gaming platform that benefits consumers in a competitive market, where rivals Nintendo and Microsoft's Xbox use similar models. Its lawyers also argue the margin Sony earns on sales of games and additional content is not excessive, saying the lawsuit ignores the company's costs and the value of its brand. The case, brought at London's Competition Appeal Tribunal (CAT) on behalf of around 12 million people in the United Kingdom, is the third against a major tech company to go to trial since the start of 2025. SONY ACCUSED OF EXCLUDING COMPETITION Alex Neill, who is leading the case, said in a statement that "gamers have paid too much and they should get some money back". The case was previously valued at up to 5 billion pounds, but has since dropped to 1.97 billion pounds. Her lawyer Robert Palmer told the tribunal: "Sony can and does set the retail prices ... without facing any retail competition for digital content. It allows it to obtain monopoly profits from digital distribution." But Sony, which sold 8 million PlayStation 5 consoles between October and December, says the lawsuit amounts to arguing that third parties should be allowed to set up a store for the PlayStation and "free-ride" on Sony's investments. Other cases relating to app stores are pending. Last year, the CAT ruled against Apple in relation to its App Store, a decision Apple is seeking to appeal. A trial of a lawsuit against Goo...

The artificial intelligence boom has minted a new set of corporate titans. But according to one of Wall Street's most famous contrarians, the industry's biggest winner may also be flexing its dominance in ways that could eventually attract regulators. Burry, best known for predicting the housing crash chronicled in The Big Short, accused Nvidia of acting in a "mafia-like" manner in the AI chip market and suggested the company's behavior could become the subject of antitrust scrutiny. Nvidia did not immediately respond to Benzinga’s request for comment. AI Infrastructure Tensions According to Burry, the dispute centered on a planned data-center project linked to OpenAI. He claimed Oracle had borrowed heavily to secure land and order hardware designed around Nvidia's next-generation Blackwell chips. But OpenAI allegedly backed away from the arrangement, arguing that the chips would be outdated by the time the facility was completed. "The chips will be dated before the building is even ready," Burry wrote. He further alleged that Nvidia stepped in and paid roughly $150 million to block AMD from securing the contract tied to the data-center buildout. "This is how NVDA throws its weight around to block AMD use by its customers," Burry said. "It is mafia-like and should be an antitrust case." Antitrust Clouds Over AI Chips Burry also claimed that the U.S. Justice Department has been investigating Nvidia for nearly two years, though he expressed skepticism that the current administration would pursue a case. Neither Nvidia nor the Justice Department has publicly confirmed the claims referenced in Burry's post. While rivals like AMD and Intel have been racing to challenge Nvidia's lead, the company continues to command the largest share of the rapidly expanding AI accelerator market. AI Boom Under Scrutiny Burry suggested the episode may signal broader stresses emerging in the AI infrastructure boom. "This is an absolutely huge deal," he wrote, adding that "the signs are sh...

Stagwell NASDAQ: STGW executives used the company’s fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 earnings call to highlight accelerating organic momentum exiting the year, expanding margins and sharply higher free cash flow, while outlining a 2026 outlook built around a political cycle tailwind, increased new business, and a growing suite of AI-enabled products. Get Stagwell alerts: Sign Up 2025 performance and momentum into 2026 Founder, Chairman and CEO Mark Penn said Stagwell delivered “accelerating ex-advocacy growth,” record net new business, expanding margins, firm cost controls, and “doubled free cash flow” in 2025. He said the company posted 6% growth for the year, driven by 13% growth in digital transformation and 6% growth in marketing services, with organic growth of 9% and 5%, respectively. Penn noted the company’s two-year organic net revenue growth stack in the fourth quarter exceeded 10%, which he described as a sequential improvement that demonstrated momentum entering 2026. CFO Ryan Greene added that the fourth quarter set records for revenue and net revenue, with revenue up 2.4% year-over-year to $807 million and net revenue up 3.4% to $651 million. Greene said that, excluding advocacy, fourth-quarter net revenue was $609 million, up 8.1% year-over-year (4% organically), and that all five segments delivered net revenue growth on both a total and organic basis. He also pointed to strength in integrated creative, performance media, and technology-enabled marketing. Segment highlights: marketing cloud, digital transformation, media and creative Management emphasized rapid growth in the marketing cloud and confidence in continued expansion. Penn said the Marketing Cloud segment exceeded $105 million of revenue in 2025 and grew 34% organically for the full year, including more than 41% organic growth in the fourth quarter. Greene reported that marketing cloud net revenue grew 111.2% in the fourth quarter (41.2% organically) and 230% for the full year (34.3% organi...

Images By Tang Ming Tung/DigitalVision via Getty Images Clorox ( CLX ) is a firm manufacturing and selling household, lifestyle, and health and wellness products globally. The company is a key player in the consumer staples sector, which may make one think that it could be a safe investment in the current macroeconomic landscape. But the fact is that CLX's total return over the past 1-year period was negative 21%, underperforming both the broader market ( SPY ) and the consumer staples sector ( XLP ) as a whole. Data by YCharts The aim of my article today is to look at the firm's latest quarterly report , as well as its valuation, to assess whether this underperformance is likely to last or if it presents an attractive investment opportunity. As Clorox is a mature company that paid dividends for almost 5 decades, I will be using a dividend discount model to estimate its fair value. Earnings In the most recent quarter, Clorox beat revenue estimates by $30 million, reaching $1.67 billion, which represents a decline of 1.2% year-over-year. On the bottom line, the company recorded a miss, however, with EPS coming in at $1.39, $0.04 below analyst expectations. Income statement (Clorox) Sales I do not like these results, especially when we focus on the revenue side. Clorox is a consumer staples company, which should be defensive by nature and which should be selling products that people need even when their financial outlook is unclear. In contrast to this, the demand for CLX's products seems to be declining. But to understand where this is coming from, let us break down the results by segment. Segment results (Clorox) Two of the four reportable segments showed declining revenue in the most recent quarter, namely household and lifestyle. The household segment declined by 6%, driven by lower volume and unfavorable price/mix. The volume decline was driven by lower consumption. This clearly shows that the demand for these products is weakening, and this is not what I would l...

The uranium miner was still able to sell its uranium significantly above average prices last quarter. 10 stocks we like better than Uranium Energy › Uranium Energy (NYSEMKT: UEC) stock jumped 6.6% through 10:35 a.m. ET Tuesday after reporting in-line earnings this morning -- and by in-line, I mean Uranium Energy didn't earn anything. Analysts forecast the uranium miner would lose $0.03 per share in its fiscal Q2 2026, and that's exactly what happened. On sales, Uranium Energy generated $20.2 million from uranium sales at an average price of $101 per pound. 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 » Uranium Energy Q2 "earnings" Uranium spot prices averaged $80.76 per pound in Q2, and are sitting at $85.90 per pound today, according to data from TradingEconomics.com. Uranium Energy, however, got prices better than either of these numbers by selling its uranium at times of its choosing, unhedged. Looking at the chart, I'm guessing most of its sales took place on Jan. 29, when uranium prices briefly passed $101 per pound before immediately plunging to... right about where the price is today. What's curious about Uranium Energy is that the company has a low-cost production strategy. According to management, it costs Uranium Energy only about $44.14 to produce a pound of uranium, and it produced 45,743 pounds of the stuff last quarter. Can Uranium Energy earn a profit? What's more, its costs are falling -- and production is increasing. Uranium Energy produced most of its uranium from just two "header houses" (also known as a wellhead house -- the place where leached uranium is extracted from a mine) last quarter. Uranium Energy has four more header houses built now, and is working on three more. It's also cooperating with its engineering contractor, Fluor...

The US FDA has issued Novo Nordisk a warning letter accusing the company of not complying with reporting requirements for postmarketing adverse event drug reports. The agency conducted an investigation from January-February 2025. Although Novo responded with written responses on several occasions, "it appears that you did not adhere to the applicable statutory requirements...and applicable regulations," according to the FDA. "As an application holder of products with active ingredients including semaglutide, liraglutide, nedosiran sodium, and estradiol, [Novo] is required to develop written procedures for the surveillance, receipt, evaluation, and reporting of postmarketing ADEs to FDA." the agency's letter states. "You developed written procedures that failed to ensure that you, and your contractor acting on your behalf, complied with all applicable PADE regulations for the surveillance, receipt, evaluation, and reporting of postmarketing ADEs."

The family of a child critically injured one of Canada’s worst mass shootings is suing OpenAI, arguing the technology company could have prevented the attack on a school last month. The lawsuit comes days after the head of OpenAI said he would apologize to the families of a remote Canadian town after violence shattered the tight-knit community. Eight people – including five school students, aged 12 to 13, and a 39-year-old teaching assistant – were killed by an 18-year-old shooter in the mountain town of Tumbler Ridge on 10 February. It later emerged that the shooter, Jesse Van Rootselaar, who died of a self-inflicted injury, had described violent scenarios involving guns to ChatGPT over several days in June, which an automated review system flagged, according to the Wall Street Journal. But OpenAI, which owns the chatbot, said it felt the account activity did not identify “credible or imminent planning” and so banned Van Rootselaar’s account, but did not notify authorities in Canada. The company later said it found a second account linked to the shooter after the first was suspended. On Monday, Cia Edmonds filed a lawsuit against the company on behalf of herself and her two daughters, Maya and Dahlia Gebala, both of whom were present during the shooting. “The purpose of this lawsuit is to learn the whole truth about how and why the Tumbler Ridge mass shooting happened, to impose accountability, to seek redress for harms and losses, and to help prevent another mass-shooting atrocity in Canada,” the law firm Rice Parsons Leoni & Elliott LLP, which is representing the family, said in a statement. The allegations have not been tested in court. Maya, 12, was shot three times. One bullet entered her head above her left eye and another hit her neck. A third bullet grazed her cheek and part of her ear, the lawsuit says. She remains in hospital after suffering a catastrophic traumatic brain injury, permanent cognitive and physical disability, right-sided hemiplegia, scarrin...

Get live prices, charts, and KO Scores from KnockoutStocks.com , the data-driven platform ranking every stock by quality and breakout potential. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM) kicked off 2026 with a strong two-month revenue report, fueled by relentless AI infrastructure spending from its biggest clients. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited, TSM TSMC said combined revenue for January and February 2026 reached NT$718.91 billion — a jump of roughly 30% compared to the same period last year. That’s a number that speaks for itself. February revenue came in at NT$317.66 billion. That’s down about 21% from January’s figure, but still up 22.2% compared to February 2025. The month-over-month dip isn’t unusual. January tends to run higher due to order timing, and the year-over-year comparison is what analysts pay closer attention to. TSM stock rose about 1% in early Tuesday trading following the release, with customers Nvidia (NVDA) and AMD (AMD) also ticking higher — up 1.53% and 1.21% respectively. Apple (AAPL) gained 0.51%. The revenue growth reflects continued demand for advanced chips used in AI servers and data centers. TSMC manufactures for some of the biggest names in tech, and those clients have not been pulling back on orders. Capital Spending and Dividends In February, TSMC’s board approved a quarterly dividend of NT$6.0 per share — a move that signals confidence in its financial position. The company also authorized approximatel...

Sunday lunch guests often check in the day before, but this text was different. Rather than making sure of the time, or wondering what to bring, it was a bold, direct question. “Is it cold in your house?” I stared at my phone screen in awe. This was revolutionary. I’ve been freezing in so many homes, but it had never occurred to me to make temperature inquiries in advance so I could wear a thicker jumper or thermals. Even if I’d had the idea, I probably wouldn’t have followed through for fear of appearing rude, preferring instead to slowly lose the feeling in my toes. But here was proof that, for a host, this kind of query is welcome – after all, most people want their guests to be comfortable and have a nice time, unless they’re a dominatrix. The message reminded me of a similar incident a few weeks before. I’d offered somebody a cup of tea and they’d smiled and said: “I’d love one, thanks, but I’m really particular about how I take my tea,” and then explained exactly how they wanted it. I was staggered – and haunted by the memory of the many weak, milky cups of torture I’d politely endured in the past. I’m also particular about how I take my tea – who isn’t? – but I’ve never thought to mention it in such detail. Again, if I had, I would have worried I’d be seen as demanding and difficult, rather than someone giving our national drink the respect it deserves. Life is too short for being unnecessarily cold, or suffering through an accidental insult of a cuppa. In fact, there are so many things that we don’t do, or say, that we definitely should. So, inspired by these maverick heroes, I’m starting now. For example, how often have you been travelling somewhere and bumped into an acquaintance – a neighbour, a colleague, a parent from school – who happens to be travelling the same route? They’re perfectly fine, probably – no offence to them – but your heart sinks as you realise you’re now obliged to sit next to them and chat all the way there. Except, bombshell: you’re ...
