Brett_Hondow/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Retailers have spent years installing security cameras to prevent theft, monitor parking lots and occasionally capture footage of someone dramatically slipping near the deli counter. Axon Enterprise ( AXON ), the maker of Tasers and bodycams, now wants companies to think of those cameras as operational data tools instead of passive surveillance systems. In a case study released Wednesday, Axon ( AXON ) said its Axon Vision platform helped identify operational changes at The Honey Baked Ham Co. that translated into cost savings and revenue opportunities exceeding eight figures, or more than 2% of the retailer’s net revenue. The project involved HoneyBaked, which operates more than 400 stores across the United States, and consulting firm Slalom. The companies used existing security camera feeds to analyze customer wait times, employee workflows and kitchen operations during the retailer’s busiest holiday periods. Peak-season pressure cooker HoneyBaked’s business model creates unusually intense operational demands. According to the case study, much of the company’s annual revenue is generated during just 15 days each year, specifically the periods leading up to Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter. Those compressed sales windows force stores to rapidly scale staffing, adjust layouts and manage long customer lines while maintaining food preparation workflows in both front-of-house and back-of-house operations. HoneyBaked asked Slalom to help identify ways to improve efficiency during those peak periods. Slalom deployed Axon Vision across multiple locations without adding new camera hardware, instead relying on existing video infrastructure already installed in stores. Cameras move beyond security duty Axon Vision uses AI models to analyze live camera feeds and detect operational patterns or conditions defined by the customer. Axon said the platform can identify workflow bottlenecks, safety risks and operational inefficiencies...

D-Keine Wall Street rallied sharply on Wednesday as investors responded to renewed optimism surrounding potential U.S.-Iran negotiations, easing concerns that prolonged Middle East tensions could further fuel inflation and keep interest rates elevated. The technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite ( COMP:IND ) climbed 1.5%, while the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average ( DJI ) advanced 1.3%. The benchmark S&P 500 ( SP500 ) gained 1%. Seeking Alpha analyst Daniel Jones described May 20 as “a really great day for market participants,” attributing much of the rally to hopes that the conflict involving Iran could soon de-escalate. Jones noted that investors had grown increasingly worried that higher oil prices tied to the conflict would intensify inflationary pressures. He also pointed to recent Federal Reserve meeting minutes that suggested additional interest rate hikes could remain possible if geopolitical tensions continued pushing prices higher. Still, Jones cautioned that the rally may be overly speculative despite comments from President Donald Trump indicating negotiations with Iran are in their final stages. “Even if the conflict against Iran comes to an end tomorrow, the unfortunate reality is that economic conditions have deteriorated quite a bit,” Jones said, adding that he remains bearish and continues to see recession risks building.

The Q1 2026 blended earnings growth estimate now stands at 25.6%. The blended revenue growth estimate for the 188 companies in this index is 7.0% for Q1 2026. Of those companies that have reported their quarterly results so far, 69% announced revenue that exceeded analysts’ expectations, and the remaining 31% reported that their revenue fell below analysts’ forecasts.

Buying bonds is supposed to be safer than investing in stocks. But in the past few years, many bond funds haven't felt very safe. Rising interest rates in 2022 and 2023 drove bond prices down. If that trend continues, it could be bad news for bond investors. So far in 2026, the Federal Reserve has not raised short-term interest rates. But longer-term interest rates (which are not directly controlled by the Fed) have been going up, as shown by the yields on 10-year and 20-year U.S. Treasury bonds. These longer-term bond yields have recently reached levels that are close to their 10-year highs. Bond investors seem worried about inflation, federal government spending, and the long-term costs of servicing the U.S. national debt. Those concerns are driving up longer-term bond yields and driving down bond prices. In an environment of rising interest rates and uncertainty about long-term U.S. Treasury yields, investors might be best served finding an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that sticks with short-term bonds. The T. Rowe Price Ultra Short-Term Bond ETF (TBUX +0.06%) fits that strategy -- it only invests in short-term debt, and it's delivered 1.48% returns (by net asset value) year to date. That's a better return in 2026 than another popular bond fund, the Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF (BND +0.56%). This fund invests in a wider range of bonds, including some longer-term bonds. It's delivered negative returns of -0.93% (by net asset value) year to date. Let's look at these two bond ETFs and see which might be the better choice for your portfolio. BND: Thousands of bonds, 10 years of 1.67% annualized returns The Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF is one of the easiest, lowest-cost ways for individual investors to buy bonds. It offers exposure to the broad taxable U.S. bond market, and it holds more than 11,000 bonds, including Treasury bonds, corporate bonds, and mortgage-backed securities. The fund's expense ratio is only 0.03%. This bond ETF has delivered average annual retu...

Less than a week after completing the largest tech IPO of 2026, Cerebras Systems is making its most aggressive play yet to dominate the fast-growing AI inference market. On Monday, the Sunnyvale-based chipmaker announced that it is now running Kimi K2.6 — a trillion-parameter open-weight model developed by Beijing-based Moonshot AI — for enterprise customers at nearly 1,000 tokens per second, a speed no GPU-based provider has come close to matching. The result, independently verified by benchmarking firm Artificial Analysis , clocked in at 981 output tokens per second, making Cerebras 6.7 times faster than the next-fastest GPU-based cloud provider and 23 times faster than the median. For a standard agentic coding request involving 10,000 input tokens, Cerebras delivered the full response — including prompt processing, reasoning, and 500 output tokens — in 5.6 seconds, compared to 163.7 seconds on the official Kimi endpoint. That’s a 29-fold improvement in time to final answer. "We're really wanting to be very clear and show that we can do the largest models," James Wang, Cerebras' director of product marketing, told VentureBeat in an exclusive interview ahead of the announcement. "In this case, Kimi K2.6 — a trillion-parameter MoE model on the wafer-scale architecture — and it runs also at this same incredible speed that we're famous for." The announcement marks a critical inflection point for Cerebras, which has long battled a perception that its unorthodox wafer-scale chips, while blindingly fast, could only handle small and mid-sized models. Kimi K2.6 is the first trillion-parameter open-weight model the company has ever served in production. And with a freshly minted $95 billion market cap and $5.55 billion in IPO proceeds burning a hole in its balance sheet, Cerebras is signaling to Wall Street that it intends to compete not just at the frontier of speed, but at the frontier of model scale. Why Cerebras chose a Chinese-built model as its trillion-parameter flag...

A former federal prosecutor in Florida sent to her personal email account a special counsel report from the investigation into US President Donald Trump’s hoarding of classified documents despite a judge’s order that it remain sealed, according to an indictment made public on Wednesday. Carmen Lineberger, who worked in the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida and managed its Fort Pierce branch, faces charges including theft of government property and concealment of government records. She pleaded not guilty during a court appearance in West Palm Beach. Her lawyer did not immediately return messages seeking comment. Advertisement Prosecutors allege that while serving as a Justice Department prosecutor last December, Lineberger sent a copy of the report that special counsel Jack Smith and his team had prepared, recapping their investigation into Trump’s retention of top secret documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, to her personal email account. The indictment alleges that Lineberger sought to conceal her actions by altering the original file name of the report to “Bundt_Cake_Recipe.pdf” before saving the retitled file on her government computer and emailing it to her personal email account. 01:36 FBI raids former US President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home Several months earlier, according to the indictment, Lineberger created on her computer a document consisting of portions of internal Justice Department messages, along with portions of an internal memorandum with header and footer markings that indicated it was for official use only.

We just covered the Michael Burry Stock Portfolio: Top 8 Stock Picks in 2026 and JD.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:JD) ranks 7th on this list. Last month, Burry told his subscribers on Substack that he viewed the recent weakness in JD.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:JD) stock as an attractive entry point. JD has slipped nearly 5% in the past year. “I bought shares in JD.com and Alibaba today. JD is a significant add, and Alibaba is a new position, a little over 6%. JD is a bit more than that,” Burry wrote in the post, adding that the recent weakness in the shares provided “an attractive entry point.” In March, the company had posted a profit miss and inline revenue for the fourth quarter, hurt by a decline in the core ecommerce segment and higher operating expenses. However, in the most recent quarter, the firm beat market expectations on earnings. READ ALSO: Mark Cuban Stock Portfolio: 8 Best Stocks to Buy. D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) Jumps 19% as Firm Ramps Up Govt Deals Burry, who led Scion Asset Management before terminating the registration of the hedge fund with the SEC, previously held a stake in JD.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:JD) as well. This position was disclosed in the second quarter of 2025 and comprised around a million shares. However, in filings for the third quarter of 2025, this position had been sold off completely. In earnings for the first quarter of the fiscal year, JD posted an EPADS of $0.74, beating market estimates by $0.20. The revenue over the period was more than $45 billion, up more than 10% compared to the revenue over the same period last year but largely in line with analyst expectations. While we acknowledge the potential of JD as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

Tesla Inc. (TSLA): Graham Stephan Used to Like This Stock Insider Monkey

We just covered the Michael Burry Stock Portfolio: Top 8 Stock Picks in 2026 and Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) ranks 5th on this list. In early April, Michael Burry revealed to his followers on Substack that he had bought shares in Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA), Burry said, ““I bought shares in JD.com and Alibaba today. JD is a significant add, and Alibaba is a new position, a little over 6%. JD is a bit more than that.” He added that the recent weakness in the shares provided “an attractive entry point.” Previously, Burry had bought a stake in the stock in the second quarter of 2025, per 13F filings for his hedge fund, Scion Asset Management. This position comprised 250,000 shares. However, filings for the third quarter of 2025 showed that he sold it off completely. Can Alibaba (BABA) Sustain Its Rally as E-Commerce Competition Intensifies? The Burry bet on Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) can be understood in context of the nature of investing. Burry is a value investor who looks for market mispricings where the downside is strictly limited, but the upside is asymmetric. Due to years of geopolitical tensions, regulatory crackdowns in China, and general international investor flight, Alibaba has traded at historically low valuation multiples. Burry views the company as one of the most compressed, mispriced mega-cap value trades in modern market history. By buying in when the stock experiences steep pullbacks, Burry capitalizes on an entry point where the business is valued at a deep discount relative to massive free cash flow generation. While we acknowledge the potential of BABA as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

At a star-studded event that closed Downtown Los Angeles' Sixth Street Viaduct last night, Mercedes and AMG unveiled the next generation of performance electric vehicles. The new four-door GT Coupe arrives in the midst of a pivotal period, the result of an almost experimental process that seems to take two steps forward and one step back quite regularly. In many ways, the all-electric AMG leaves previous plans in the past by effectively bringing the record-setting Concept AMG GT XX to series production, with many firsts for Mercedes supporting the abandonment of internal combustion power, including new axial motors from YASA and F1-derived battery cells. Fittingly, then, Mercedes brought out its F1 team’s personnel, as George Russell presented the new car while Toto Wolff and Kimi Antonelli watched from the makeshift grandstands. Hollywood celebs ran the gamut, from Brad Pitt—who drove one GT onto the bridge—to Jacob Elordi and Kevin Hart, while Blink 182 played a surprisingly sarcastic mini set. All of the above may mean less to potential GT buyers than performance metrics and pricing when the 2027 model year comes along, but it only serves to prove just how big of a deal Mercedes-AMG believes this will be. The new AMG GT 4-Door brings to production a lot of technology we saw in the GT XX concept a few years ago. Credit: Mercedes-AMG Part sports car, part limo, the GT 63 4-Door is ridiculously quick. Credit: Mercedes-AMG A new look In person, the new GT bears almost no resemblance to any of Benz’s prior EVs. No more bulbous, nautical EQS shapes or minorly smoothed over boxy G-Wagen aesthetic . The new design is more aided by digital renderings and iterative algorithms, especially the jutting front grille, reclined headlights, and Kamm-tail rear end—a bit of Aston Martin fore and aft. From the profile view, the proportions fit somewhere between a Porsche Panamera or Taycan, low-slung and slippery for ideal aerodynamic efficiency. Read full article Comments

DNY59/E+ via Getty Images The ProShares Equities for Rising Rates ETF ( EQRR ) continues to reach fresh record highs as traders price in a more hawkish interest rate environment amid a Treasury bond bear market. The fund, which tracks the Nasdaq U.S. Large Cap Equities for Rising Rates Index using a full replication technique, has posted impressive gains—up 21% year-to-date and 33% from a year ago. The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield ( US10Y ) surged some 30 basis points from only a month ago, as higher energy prices from the Middle East war bode poorly for the Federal Reserve's inflation outlook. Seeking Alpha The ETF’s strong performance reflects investor appetite for equities positioned to benefit from elevated interest rates, with its holdings spanning technology, energy and cybersecurity sectors.

Drew Angerer The most popular AI chatbots, including Anthropic's ( ANTHRO ) Claude, Google's ( GOOG )( GOOGL ) Gemini, OpenAI's ( OPENAI ) ChatGPT, and xAI's ( X.AI )( SPACE ) Grok, provided answers related to elections that failed 90% of the time on accuracy, bias, or source selection, according to a study by Forum AI . The study consisted of researchers asking the four chatbots more than 3,100 questions on topics ranging from healthcare to politics, according to a report by Bloomberg. About 36% of questions related to elections contained a minimum of one factual error. Grok's responses featured an error about 50% of the time. And nearly every response featured a political bias. ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini veered left, while Grok steered right. Also concerning were the sources being utilized by the models when generating responses. Chatbots cited state-owned media outlets in 35% of questions related to foreign policy issues, according to the study. For example, ChatGPT cited state-owned media 51% of the time, and Grok cited these sources at a 44% rate. This included sources such as China's Global Times and Russia's RT. Forum AI was founded last year by former CNN anchor and head of Meta Platforms ( META ) Global Media Partnerships Campbell Brown and Robbie Goldfarb, former head of Meta's AI Trust and Safety division. They created the organization to evaluate the propensity of AI models to deliver biases and outright errors in responses, particularly on political or controversial topics.

We just covered the Graham Stephan Stock Portfolio: Top 11 Stocks and Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) ranks 11th on this list. Graham Stephan famously bought Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock after purchasing a Tesla Model 3 in 2019. He reasoned that if he loved the car, a lot of other people would as well. According to multiple reports, he invested $5,000 in the stock back then. The stock had one of the most impressive runs at the stock market in the coming years, climbing to more than $1.5 trillion in market capitalization. However, Stephan has publicly documented that he sold off his holding in two chunks since 2019. Both times, Stephan cautioned against the stretching valuation of the company and sold his stake in the firm as a risk-averse investor. Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) Isn't Being Targeted By Trump's Copper Tariffs, Says Jim Cramer Even as investors like Stephan exit Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA), hedge funds have been loading up on the stock. The Q1 2026 earnings report, released late last month, delivered the exact margin expansion story institutions wanted to see. Total revenue reached $22.39 billion, up 16% year-over-year. Even more impressively, non-GAAP adjusted EPS came in at $0.41, surging 52% year-on-year and crushing Wall Street expectations of $0.34 to $0.37. Critically, the automotive gross margin excluding regulatory credits hit 19.2%, the highest level in over a year. This indicates that despite fierce global pricing competition, Tesla vehicle unit economics are stabilizing through lower material costs. While we acknowledge the potential of TSLA as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.
