The State Street SPDR Portfolio MSCI Global Stock Market ETF (SPGM 2.26%) and the Schwab Emerging Markets Equity ETF (SCHE 3.53%) differ most in geographic focus, historical risk, and size, with SCHE offering higher yield and a larger asset base but deeper drawdowns and an emerging markets tilt. Both SPGM and SCHE can serve as core equity building blocks, but the comparison comes down to diversification and risk appetite. SPGM tracks global stocks across developed and emerging markets, while SCHE zeroes in on emerging economies, offering different sector and country exposures that may appeal depending on portfolio goals.

The 1-yr return represents total return over the trailing 12 months. SCHE comes in slightly more affordable at 0.07% compared to SPGM’s 0.09% expense ratio, and also delivers a higher dividend yield, which may appeal to income-focused investors.

The bulls are attempting to hold their ground at the Nasdaq’s 200-day moving average amid escalating attacks in Iran and the surrounding region. The fact that investors raced in to defend that key technical range could signal that Wall Street isn’t too worried about the recent wave of bombings transforming into a larger-scale and prolonged war. It is also worth remembering that Wall Street has largely shrugged off other conflicts in recent years. Meanwhile, Nvidia capped off another blockbuster reporting season for big tech and AI stocks. More importantly, almost every pocket of the economy is projected to report earnings growth in 2026, with 15 out of 16 Zacks sectors set to post YoY earnings expansion. Therefore, despite the possibility of near-term volatility and selling pressure, long-term investors should consider buying some of the best of the best stocks in March. Let’s explore how investors can use a Zacks screen to help find some of the best Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) stocks out of a group of over 200 highly-ranked companies to consider buying now. Zacks Rank Basics Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) stocks outperform the market in good and bad times. However, there are over 200 stocks that earn a Zacks Rank #1 at any given time. Therefore, it’s helpful to understand how to apply filters to the Zacks Rank in order to narrow the list down to a more manageable and tradable set of stocks. How to Find the Best "Strong Buy" Stocks There are only three items on this screen. But together, these three filters can result in some impressive returns. • Zacks Rank equal to 1 Starting with a Zacks Rank #1 is often a strong jumping off point because it boasts an average annual return of roughly 24.4% per year since 1988. • % Change (Q1) Est. over 4 Weeks greater than 0 Positive current quarter estimate revisions over the last four weeks. • % Broker Rating Change over 4 Week equal to Top # 5 Top 5 stocks with the best average broker rating changes over the last four weeks.

US military commanders have been invoking extremist Christian rhetoric about biblical “end times” to justify involvement in the Iran war to troops, according to complaints made to a watchdog group. The Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) says it has received more than 200 complaints from service members across all branches of the armed forces, including the marines, air force and space force. One complainant, identified as a noncommissioned officer (NCO) in a unit that could be deployed “at any moment to join” operations against Iran, told MRFF in a complaint viewed by the Guardian that their commander had “urged us to tell our troops that this was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’ and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ”. “He said that ‘President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth’”, the NCO added. The NCO’s complaint was filed on behalf of 15 troops, including 11 Christians, one Muslim person and one Jewish person. The complaint was first shared by MRFF with Jonathan Larsen, an independent journalist. “Anytime Israel or the US is involved in the Middle East, we get this stuff about Christian nationalists who’ve taken over our government, and certainly our US military,” Mikey Weinstein, MRFF’s president, who is an air force veteran, told the Guardian. “Military members are not really able to stand up for themselves, because your military superior is not your shift manager at Starbucks,” he added. In a statement, Weinstein suggested the reports indicate an increase in Christian extremism in the military, noting that the complainants “report the unrestricted euphoria of their commanders” who perceive a “‘biblically-sanctioned’ war that is clearly the undeniable sign of the expeditious approach of the fundamentalist Christian ‘End Times’.” He said that the complaints show a clear ...

'They're Not MAGA': Trump Remarks On Tucker Carlson And Megyn Kelly's Iran Criticism Authored by Steve Watson via modernity.news , President Donald Trump delivered a clear message to critics within conservative media circles Monday, asserting that ‘true’ MAGA supporters back his moves to neutralize the Iranian threat and prevent nuclear proliferation that endangers the U.S. and its allies. Dismissing pushback from Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly as out of step with America First priorities, Trump emphasized that securing the homeland against rogue regimes like Iran is non-negotiable—no matter the noise from sidelined commentators. Tucker Carlson has publicly blamed Israel for pulling the U.S. into conflict with Iran , framing the strikes as unnecessary foreign entanglement rather than a direct defense of American interests. Tucker Carlson gives a “super simple” explanation for why Israel would want to drag America into a hot war with Iran. “It’s hard to say this, but the United States didn’t make the decision here. Benjamin Netanyahu did.” “This happened because Israel wanted it to happen. This is… pic.twitter.com/XECY7TkTjy — Vigilant Fox 🦊 (@VigilantFox) March 3, 2026 In a recent segment, Carlson stated, “It’s hard to say this, but the United States didn’t make the decision here. Benjamin Netanyahu did.” He added, “This happened because Israel wanted it to happen. This is Israel’s war. This is not the United States war.” Carlson questioned the long-standing warnings about Iran’s nuclear program , asking, “ Why would Israel want this? ” and concluding, “Benjamin Netanyahu said yesterday, Iran’s nuclear program has been on the very verge, ‘the cusp’ of building and deploying a nuclear weapon.” He dismissed the urgency, saying, “ But if it was really about that, how could this threat have lasted for 40 years? ” before claiming the goal is “regional hegemony. Super simple.” Megyn Kelly echoed similar sentiments, arguing that U.S. involvement serves foreign interests ov...

Key Points Ethereum is a general-purpose smart contract chain. XRP is a specialized chain intended for financial operators. Both are good investments, but only one can be highly flexible in response to future market conditions. 10 stocks we like better than XRP › It's a tall order to put $2,000 into crypto and not touch it for five years; there simply aren't many assets that are going to hold up over time. But the odds are very good that majors like Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) and XRP (CRYPTO: XRP) will, at a minimum, exist five years from now. If their development roadmaps get implemented as planned, they'll probably even be worth more than they are now. So which one is the better choice to buy and hold with $2,000? 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 » Ethereum has a few different ways to win Ethereum's edge is that it competes in many different segments simultaneously, which gives it a handful of different paths in which it can survive and grow. Ethereum leads the crypto sector's decentralized finance (DeFi) segment by total value locked (TVL), with around $51.4 billion; it also has $158.6 billion in stablecoins on its chain, the most of any chain by far. Those bases of capital ensure that if a developer gets an idea about a new app to make, the chances of them finding a customer with money ready to spend are the highest on Ethereum. So it's no surprise that the network is home to a vast number of different projects in various verticals, some of which are successful and generate economic value for the chain, and many of which fail. But even the failures incur transaction fees and thus some additional demand for Ether, so it's all part of the process. That mixture of its ecosystem's depth and breadth is a hedge, because even if a hot new niche cools off, another can heat up. And over the lo...

akinbostanci Businesses may be approaching a “Cortes moment" on AI, a point of no return referencing the Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés, who in 1519 burned his ships upon reaching Mexico to prevent his men from returning to Cuba, according to Moody's Analytics Chief Economist Mark Zandi. "That’s my takeaway from fintech company Block’s ( XYZ ) move to slash its workforce by 40%," Zandi wrote in a social media post. "While Block didn’t explicitly pin the cuts on AI, it all but did." AI is already weighing on the labor market, Zandi said, pointing to a scatterplot, though the impact so far has come mainly through slower hiring rather than outright layoffs. Still, the economist added that if companies decide the shift to AI is irreversible and start cutting staff like Block ( XYZ ), broader job losses may not be far behind. "Of course, AI could be a smokescreen for other, less flattering reasons for the cuts, but I suspect not," he added. "And even so, it may not matter for the job market, as the jump in Block’s stock price signals to other companies that they will be rewarded if they follow suit." Oxford Economics has said in a report that firms may be attributing job cuts to AI rather than more traditional factors in an effort to present a more positive narrative to investors.

monsitj/iStock via Getty Images B&G Foods ( BGS ) showed a gain in postmarket trading on Tuesday after posting a mixed Q4 earnings report. Sales were down 2.2% for the quarter to $539.6M, primarily attributable to the Le Sueur U.S. and Don Pepino divestitures, partially offset by an increase in base business net sales. The increase in base business net sales was driven by an increase in net pricing and the impact of product mix of $2.8M, or 0.5% of base business net sales, and an increase in volume of $1.9M, or 0.4% of base business net sales, partially offset by the negative impact of foreign currency of $0.3M. Adjusted gross profit was 22.2% of sales during the quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $84.7M for the quarter, compared to $86.1M a year ago. The company's adjusted net income for the quarter was $22.8M, or $0.28 per adjusted diluted share, vs. $24.6M and $0.31 a year ago. The reduction in adjusted net income and adjusted EPS was primarily attributable to the decrease in net sales and increases in raw material costs, including the impact of tariffs. The adjusted EPS tally missed the consensus mark by $0.02. B&G Foods ( BGS ) CEO Casey Keller highlighted that earnings were largely in line with expectations, with core business trends showing further year-over-year improvement to date during the first quarter. He noted that B&G Foods ( BGS ) also announced on Monday the divestiture of the Green Giant U.S. frozen vegetable business, representing a significant milestone in its ongoing effort to divest brands and product lines that are non-core to B&G Foods’ long-term strategy, sharpen the focus, and reduce long-term debt. Shares of B&G Foods ( BGS ) were up 2.6% in postmarket action.

When financial professionals talk about the benefits of doing a Roth conversion ahead of retirement, they tend to focus on a couple of key benefits. Roth IRA and 401(k) withdrawals are taken tax-free. And not having to worry about taxes at that stage of life is huge. Roth accounts also don't force you to take required minimum distributions (RMDs). That gives you more flexibility with your money and makes it easier to factor your IRA or 401(k) into your inheritance plan. But there's a less obvious benefit of doing a Roth conversion before you retire. You may not realize it, but moving your money out of a traditional retirement account and into a Roth could help you lower your Medicare costs down the line. How Roth conversions keep Medicare costs more manageable While Medicare Part A is free for most enrollees, there's a monthly premium you need to pay for Part B coverage. Each year, a standard monthly premium for Part B is set. But if you're a higher earner, you'll pay a surcharge beyond that standard premium known as an income-related monthly adjustment amount, or IRMAA. Medicare IRMAAs are based on your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) from two years prior. In other words, a higher income this year could leave you paying higher Medicare premiums in 2028. What does that have to do with Roth conversions? When you take withdrawals from a Roth account, they don't count toward your MAGI. And so having your savings in a Roth account could help you avoid paying more for Medicare. To give you an idea of when IRMAAs kick in, this year, if you're single with a MAGI of over $109,000, you'll pay more for Medicare Part B. Now, let's say you have an income of $120,000, but $40,000 of that is retirement plan withdrawals. If those distributions are coming out of a Roth account, they won't count toward your MAGI, keeping you below the IRMAA threshold. Look at all of the things you stand to gain Roth conversions have to be timed carefully. That's because you need to pay taxes o...

Intel names Dr. Craig Barratt as chairman, succeeding Yeary (INTC:NASDAQ) Seeking Alpha

Roman Tiraspolsky Intel ( INTC ) said on Tuesday that it has named semiconductor industry veteran Dr. Craig Barratt as the independent chairman of its board of directors, succeeding Frank Yeary. Intel shares fell fractionally in extended trading after a drop of more than 5% during the regular session. Yeary is retiring from the board and had served as a director since 2009 and as chair since 2023. “On behalf of the board and the entire company, I want to thank Frank for his commitment to Intel and his strong leadership as chair during one of the most consequential periods in Intel’s history,” said Lip-Bu Tan, CEO, Intel, in a statement . “Frank led the effort to bring me in as the company’s CEO, encouraged disciplined board oversight, and reinforced strong board governance. With his and the board’s support, I have been empowered to take decisive actions to strengthen our financial foundation, advance our process roadmap and position the company for long-term competitiveness. His leadership helped guide Intel through a period of transformation and onto firmer footing for the next phase.” “Craig brings deep semiconductor expertise and a strong record of technology and operational leadership in complex, engineering-driven businesses,” Tan added. “As we enter our next phase – focused on disciplined execution, product leadership and foundry progress – his experience will be instrumental in supporting management and driving sustainable long-term value for stockholders.” “The company has taken significant steps to strengthen its financial position, advance its technology and product roadmap, and enhance operational discipline,” said Barratt. “The board thanks Frank for his leadership and for helping position Intel for this next phase. I’m honored to lead the board’s continued focus on supporting rigorous execution, investing in and scaling U.S.-anchored R&D and manufacturing, and ensuring Intel is well positioned to compete and win in the years ahead.” Dr. Barratt joined I...
