Amazon Reportedly Targeting Up To $42 Billion In Bond Sale Investor's Business Daily

Over the weekend, Tesla Inc. and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk fired back at Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.). AOC Criticism Sparks Online Debate Musk was responding to an edited video of AOC's comments from a 2025 congressional hearing, during which she called the tech mogul a "billionaire conman." The Tesla CEO replied by jokingly upgrading his title to "*trillionaire" as his net worth climbs. *trillioniare Don't Miss: The remarks from AOC originally came during a House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing on Musk's role leading DOGE, where she argued he profited from government subsidies despite limited expertise. Musk, who left DOGE in May 2025, responded to an edited video juxtaposing her criticism with highlights of his Tesla and SpaceX achievements. Wealth Surge Driven By Tesla And SpaceX According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Musk's net worth currently sits at $662 billion, up $42.3 billion year-to-date. He is the only one in the top-five billionaires to see a gain this year. Analysts point to the anticipated SpaceX IPO, with a potential $1.75 trillion valuation, as a major driver of his wealth trajectory reaching the trillionaire status.

Prediction markets operator Polymarket has announced what it calls a “groundbreaking partnership” with Palantir Technologies and TWG AI, to develop a next-generation sports integrity platform. The parties said that this partnership combining data integration, artificial intelligence, and security is designed to promote the trust, transparency, and reliability that participants, institutions, and the public deserve from prediction markets. The Vergence AI engine, created last year through a joint venture with Palantir and TWG AI, will serve as the technical infrastructure to establish a new standard for sports market integrity controls aimed at preventing, identifying, and reporting anomalous or suspicious activity. One of the arguments against allowing what amounts to sports betting on prediction markets platforms is the lack of monitoring of these platforms, by both sports leagues and regulators, to make sure that “suspicious activity” isn’t occurring. A number of sports betting scandals have rocked professional sports lately, such as those involving NBA player Terry Rozier. Shayne Coplan, Founder & CEO of Polymarket, said, “Our partnership with Palantir and TWG AI allows us to apply world-class analytics and monitoring to sports markets while building tools that can help leagues and teams maintain confidence in the games themselves. Our goal has always been to give fans new ways to engage with the sports they love while ensuring those markets can grow responsibly on a global scale.” Vergence.AI brings together advanced technical and financial services infrastructure to strengthen Polymarket’s integrity layer for sports: End to End Trade Monitoring : Pre-trade and post-trade integrity monitoring across order flow, execution data and settlement activity. : Pre-trade and post-trade integrity monitoring across order flow, execution data and settlement activity.

Shares of Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker Nio (NIO +9.41%) shot 10.5% higher at the market open and were still up by 10.1% as of 10:45 a.m. ET. Investors liked what the company had to say in its fourth-quarter report. Last month, the company surprised investors by saying it expected its first-ever adjusted profit from operations in the fourth quarter. The $100 million to $172 million range was particularly strong, and Nio ended up beating the high end of it. Nio achieves first profit It wasn't just the $178.9 million in adjusted profit from operations that had investors excited. In fact, the company achieved a slight net profit of $40.4 million in Q4. That result was fueled by increased sales volume, an optimized product mix, and lower research and development expenses. Expand NYSE : NIO Nio Today's Change ( 9.41 %) $ 0.47 Current Price $ 5.41 Key Data Points Market Cap $10B Day's Range $ 5.08 - $ 5.50 52wk Range $ 3.02 - $ 8.02 Volume 4.3M Avg Vol 42M Gross Margin 11.25 % Nio also told investors to expect revenue to double year over year in the current quarter. Vehicle deliveries should also increase by more than 90% compared to the prior year period. The strong results led Citigroup analyst Jeff Chung to note that new models are coming soon, and future expenses can continue to drop as battery costs decline. He has a price target of $6.20 on the shares, according to Barron's. That represents 25% upside from Monday's closing price. Investors should keep an eye on executive compensation, though. The company's board of directors approved a large 2026 stock incentive plan for founder and CEO William Li. The grant of more than 248 million shares, valued at up to $1.2 billion, will depend on meeting specific performance targets related to the stock's valuation and net profits.

Experienced England defender Kyle Walker has retired from international football with immediate effect. The 35-year-old Burnley full-back has decided to call time on his career after winning 96 caps for the Three Lions and featuring at five major tournaments. Walker won the last of those caps in a friendly against Senegal at the City Ground in June 2025. "I am sad to be making this decision, but I'm also very proud of what I've achieved with England," he said. More to follow.

Nvidia’s DLSS 4.5 with 6x Multi Frame Generation will be available starting March 31st for users with RTX 50-series GPUs, the company announced on Tuesday. With 6x Multi Frame Generation, Nvidia claims that DLSS 4.5 can generate “five additional frames for every single natively rendered one, for a maximum 6X multiplier.” It’s an increase from the maximum of three additional frames possible with DLSS 4. On March 31st, Nvidia will also release Dynamic Frame Generation for 50-series GPUs, which can automatically switch between Multi Frame Generation multipliers to hit your target framerate for a game or your display’s refresh rate. Nvidia announced both Dynamic Frame Generation and 6x Multi Frame Generation alongside DLSS 4.5, but at the time, Nvidia only provided a spring launch window for the two features. Nvidia is also announcing some upgrades to GeForce Now. You’ll be able to link your GeForce Now account with your GOG account in the “coming months.” If you’re using GeForce Now in a VR headset, the service will also support framerates of up to 90fps, an increase from the previous maximum of 60fps, starting March 19th (though you have to have an Ultimate subscription). And “select” Xbox games will be joining GeForce Now’s Install-to-Play library, including Brutal Legend and Contrast.

The market hasn't crashed, but the environment has been turbulent in recent weeks. A variety of concerns have weighed on investor sentiment, from worries about the economy to worries about the pace of artificial intelligence (AI) spending. And the war in Iran has added to this difficult backdrop. But at times like these, or even during a potential market crash, it's actually a good idea to keep investing because you may find bargains on stocks that have what it takes to perform over the long term. Here are three I'd buy without hesitation today or during any market crash. 1. Carnival Carnival (CCL 1.12%) (CUK 0.57%) had a rough time during the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, but it's proven its ability to manage difficult moments, recover, and grow. The world's biggest cruise operator has been steadily paying down the debt that accumulated during its temporary halt to cruising -- and even returned to an investment-grade credit rating at Fitch Ratings. Carnival has also been reporting record revenue in recent quarters and advanced cruise bookings at record levels. And these bookings are at higher price levels, demonstrating the strength of demand for Carnival's cruises. Expand NYSE : CCL Carnival Corp.

Former Google & Atlassian Security Professional Brings More Than Two Decades of Experience Securing Global-scale Platforms SAN FRANCISCO, March 10, 2026--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rippling, a leading business software company, announced the appointment of Adrian Ludwig as Chief Security Officer, bringing to the company one of the technology industry’s most accomplished security leaders. Ludwig joins Rippling with more than two decades of experience securing global-scale platforms and advising organizations at the forefront of cloud, mobile, and identity innovation. His career has been defined by building security capabilities during periods of fundamental technological shift and transforming security into a driver of product velocity, customer trust, and business growth. Recruited as a teenager by the U.S. Department of Defense to identify vulnerabilities in cryptographic and networked systems, Ludwig has operated at the leading edge of cybersecurity ever since. He went on to help secure the early web at Adobe and shape the modern mobile security model as Director of Android Security at Google, protecting billions of users worldwide. Later he scaled trust and cloud security as Chief Information Security Officer and Chief Trust Officer at Atlassian. Most recently, as Chief Architect and CISO at Tools for Humanity, he led the development of one of the industry’s most ambitious efforts in privacy-preserving, global proof-of-human identity infrastructure. "Rippling is redefining how companies run their entire business on a single platform, and that only works if trust is absolute. Adrian has built security for technologies used by billions of people and millions of businesses. As we secure our platform and customers in the rapidly evolving AI era, he understands how to make security foundational to innovation, not a constraint. That is a game-changing capability for our customers and for our company," said Rippling Chief Technology Officer Albert Strasheim. At Rippling, Ludwig w...

SAN FRANCISCO & FORT WORTH, Texas, March 10, 2026--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TPG, a leading global alternative asset management firm, today announced that TPG Rise Climate, the firm’s dedicated climate investing platform, has completed the sale of its stake in Intersect, which was acquired by Google for $4.75 billion, plus the assumption of debt, in a transaction announced on December 22, 2025. Google’s acquisition of Intersect follows from a strategic partnership launched with Intersect and TPG in December 2024. With new investment from Google and additional capital from TPG, the partnership leveraged Intersect’s capabilities to co‑locate data‑center load with new clean generation and storage, creating an innovative and scalable model for meeting growing compute demand. Following a year of successful partnership, Google announced its agreement to acquire all of Intersect’s digital power assets. As part of the transaction, existing Intersect investors, including TPG, Google, Climate Adaptive Infrastructure (CAI), and Greenbelt Capital Partners, spun off Intersect’s grid-tied power business to form a new independent company, IPX Power ("IPX"), with majority backing from TPG Rise Climate. This series of transactions – the sale of Intersect’s digital power business, along with the spinout of its grid-tied clean energy assets into IPX – represents a total enterprise value of $12 billion. "We are pleased to reach this milestone and a successful outcome for Intersect, Google, and our clients," said Ed Beckley, a Managing Partner of TPG Rise Climate. "We brought together the TPG ecosystem to address the hyperscalers’ most significant challenge in meeting today’s data center capacity demands – readily available power at scale. Throughout our investment period, we developed the capabilities within Intersect to efficiently build new clean power generation alongside new data center load, and we wish Google, Intersect’s founder and CEO Sheldon Kimber, and the Intersect digital power tea...

DNY59/iStock via Getty Images Investment Thesis When analyzing ETFs that use option strategies to generate returns and track the Nasdaq-100, I previously predicted potential growth in the technology market in 2026 because of the tech rally around AI and further easing of the Fed's monetary policy. That led me to bet on funds that have a higher beta to index volatility and are able to follow market growth more quickly. For this reason, the Goldman Sachs Nasdaq-100 Premium Income ETF ( GPIQ ) was my preferred choice over the JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF ( JEPQ ), despite the fact that both are identical funds that track the Nasdaq-100 index and offer high dividend yields of around 10%. Nevertheless, recent developments related to rising inflation risks, driven by labor market data and record oil prices (as a result of the cessation of oil and gas production in several Middle Eastern countries), compel me to take a more cautious view of the growth prospects for the technology market. Right now, though, the risks are way higher, and I think the market could drop 10-20% in the second half of 2026 if things in Iran don't start to chill out. If this happens, the rise in energy prices will keep quotations at extremely high levels, triggering a deeper inflation problem in the world and the US. Rather than continuing the cycle of Fed interest rate cuts, the opposite policy can be expected, including a return to hawkish rhetoric, accompanied by a possible tightening of monetary policy, which may include interest rate hikes. But if things do chill out, those risks will go down, and the Nasdaq-100 will probably keep growing or stay in a wide range. This would require choosing instruments that help minimize risks but retain the potential for yield growth in a bullish and/or sideways market, which is one reason why I do not consider buffer ETFs for my defensive strategy, apart from the fact that they do not pay dividends as the income generated from their call writing...

In this article AMZN Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT The logos of World Economic Forum (WEF) and Amazon are displayed during the 56th annual World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting, in Davos, Switzerland, Jan. 20, 2026. Romina Amato | Reuters Amazon plans to address a string of recent outages, including some that were tied to AI-assisted coding errors, at a retail technology meeting on Tuesday, CNBC has confirmed. Dave Treadwell, a top executive overseeing the technical foundations of Amazon's website, told employees that the company's "This Week in Stores Tech," or TWiST, meeting would be a "deep dive" on "some of the issues that got us here." The meeting is scheduled to begin at 12:30 p.m. ET. "Folks - as you likely know, the availability of the site and related infrastructure has not been good recently," Treadwell, senior vice president of eCommerce Foundation, wrote in a note to employees viewed by CNBC. He added that he was shifting the focus of the meeting "given the incidence of Sev 1s," referring to high severity incidents that cause outages or degraded performance of critical systems. Amazon experienced four such incidents in a week, Treadwell said and noted the deep dive is necessary to "regain our strong availability posture." The Financial Times was first to report on the memos. An Amazon spokesperson said TWiST is a regular weekly meeting where retail tech leaders review the performance of store operations. "As part of normal business, the meeting will include a review of the availability of our website and app as we focus on continual improvement," the spokesperson said in a statement. The meeting comes after Amazon's online store malfunctioned for some users last week. For roughly six hours on Thursday, website and app users were unable to checkout, access account information or view product prices. Amazon said in a statement that the issues were related to a "software code deployment." Amazon and its hyperscaler rivals are ramping up spend...

Tucker Carlson’s online store sells right-wing apparel and home goods, like hoodies in the Supreme streetwear style mocking Somali people or mugs with The Godfather puppetmaster iconography edited to feature AIPAC. But last week, a handful of other products caught the attention of those outside Carlson’s typical audience: one is a red and yellow “NY Commie” baseball cap, with a hammer and sickle replacing the “C” (the icon is mirrored to work for the joke); another cap is emblazoned with “Neocons are gay for Israel”; and an “I HEART NICOTINE” mug. The merch seems to have captured a subset of people whose politics are at odds with Carlson: irony-pilled leftists who would rather lean into the right-wing hysteria imagining a Communist takeover of New York than tiptoe around our new mayor, Zohran Mamdani, being a Democratic Socialist. “What are the moral repercussions of buying dope merch from an ontological enemy,” one post on X reads. A video on Instagram with 4.7 million views is captioned, in part, “I need these to hit the thrift stores because as a socialist girlie I cannot support.” (A worker-owned media company already made dupes as part of a “F*ck Tucker Carlson” collection.) Carlson is no stranger to hawking products — he also has a brand of nicotine pouches that he markets as a Zyn alternative, which he sees as a “ladies brand” and too liberal. To be clear, the new “fire” Carlson merch that “goes kinda hard” (not my words) is a niche curiosity in a corner of the internet. Progressives aren’t going out in droves to buy stuff from Carlson’s merch store, at least that I can tell, but the incident does relate to something I’ve wanted to prod at for a while: for influencers and content creators, one of the best things that can happen is they become a purveyor of branded physical goods. Removed from his perch at Fox News, Carlson now grinds away in the digital content mines, co-mingling with white supremacists and baiting people into resharing short segments of his ...

MSFT Stock Today, March 10: OpenAI Lawsuit Spurs AI Safety Risk Meyka

WirralViews/iStock via Getty Images Introduction I have written about UMH Properties, Inc. ( UMH ) previously, though my article came out almost 3 years ago . Back then, I rated the company as a “Sell” due to concerns over its high leverage and high dividend payout ratios, as well as concerns over the stock being overvalued. Last month, the company released its results for Q4 2025 . Hence, I’ve decided to re-evaluate the company to see if my concerns remain valid. Business Model UMH Properties is a residential REIT that specializes in manufactured home communities. The company’s primary business is the ownership and operation of these communities, whereby it leases the homesites to residents. The company also derives income through the sale of both new and used manufactured homes. As of Q4 2025, the company’s portfolio comprises 145 manufactured home communities in 12 states, encompassing approximately 27,100 homesites. The company has significant exposure to the Marcellus and Utica Shale regions, with 12,300 homesites located in the area. These are energy-rich areas and one of the largest sources of natural gas, with the company poised to benefit from increasing demand in the area. The company’s rental portfolio comprises 11,000 units, up from 10,300 units in 2024. In fact, its portfolio of rental units has consistently increased each year, from 8,300 in 2020 to the current 11,000. UMH Feb'26 Investor Presentation FY 2025 Performance For FY 2025, UMH Properties reported a 9% increase in total income to $261.8 million, largely driven by a 9.5% increase in rental income. Normalized Funds From Operations (Normalized FFO) was approximately $80.1 million, a 15% increase compared to the previous year, or $0.93/share. Apart from increasing its income, the company was also able to reduce its expenses. Its expense ratio fell from 39.7% in 2024 to 39.3% in 2025. The company also saw improvements in other areas, such as the total occupancy and monthly rental. UMH Feb'26 Inves...
