I sit my office in Srinagar surrounded by the steady, safe hum of the secondary school where I work. As academic head, my mind is occupied with curriculums and pupil progress. But my soul is 130km north of the Jammu and Kashmir city, behind the jagged peaks of the Razdan Pass, in the silence of the Tulail valley. I am a daughter of the Dard Shin. We are a tribe whose history is etched in the Himalayan granite by the glacial water of the Kishanganga River. My father became the first professor of commerce from Tulail. His struggle to education was physical. He walked through snow that reached his waist to find a world that did not know he existed. His journey from the remote highlands to higher education gave me wings to fly. Yetthose I left behind – the sisters of my tribe – are still grounded in the frost. For six months, snow seals the Tulail valley. In this frozen isolation, the Dard Shin women are the architects of survival. They are the first to break the ice on the water buckets in the dawn. Their hands never stop. They spin, they knead, they work until they collapse into sleep, only to wake and do it all again. In the middle of this hardship, the children of Tulail carry dreams. I remember nine-year-old Zubeida. “I want to be a doctor,” she told me. “When the snow is deep and the mothers are in pain, I want to be the one who knows how to make them better. I will wear a white coat like the snow, but I will bring warmth.” The path to a medical degree is blocked by more than just mountains. There is no high school here for her to attend. Twelve-year-old Irfan’s father and brothers are away working in the building sites of Shimla. Irfan’s jaw is set: “I don’t want to carry stones. I want to be a scientist. “I want to study why the stars are so bright in Tulail and how we can use the sun to keep our homes warm when the electricity goes away.” When the first frost bites, the men of Tulail pack their frayed bags and leave for the construction sites in Shimla or the a...

Chinese researchers said they have developed a drone with wings made from bamboo, making it 20 per cent lighter and considerably cheaper than a carbon fibre device, according to state news agency Xinhua. The bamboo-based unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), which completed its maiden flight in the northern Chinese city of Tianjin last month, costs about a quarter of the price of carbon fibre cloth, it said. The savings meant that the overall structural costs of a drone made with the new material could be reduced by more than 20 per cent, according to the research team. Advertisement The drone industry relies on traditional composite materials such as carbon fibre, which have high energy consumption and are difficult to degrade. Bamboo presents a new way to design lightweight, low-cost drones built with a sustainable material. The drone was co-developed by the International Centre for Bamboo and Rattan, Beihang University’s Ningbo Institute of Technology and the Long Bamboo Technology Group. Advertisement “Bamboo-based composite materials for drones not only need to meet stringent mechanical performance requirements, but also need to overcome a series of technical challenges such as moulding processes and environmental adaptability,” project lead Qin Daochun told Xinhua.

hapabapa/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Investment Thesis The geopolitical shifts in March 2026 have underscored the increasing demand for advanced defense analytics in the Middle East. With the Strait of Hormuz closed and Tehran getting hit as part of Operation Epic Fury, there's more volatility in the financial markets, and investors are looking for assets that might not only lose value but also bring in extra dividends. These include Palantir Technologies Inc. ( PLTR ), the algorithms of which are used to identify targets in real time and coordinate strikes on military targets, and it is not just a software company but an integrated operating system for modern defense and strategic intelligence. That is why the current escalation in Iran has the potential to transform previously signed government contracts with the US Department of Defense into multi-billion-dollar cash flows, the scale of which will grow as the market comes to terms with the fact that algorithms are becoming more important and more expensive than missiles. PLTR's Strategy and Growth Catalysts Palantir is a US company that specializes in developing software used for big data analysis and AI system implementation. They have a unique advantage in using the concept of "Ontology," thanks to which a semantic layer is created that translates dry numbers into understandable objects, maximizing the accuracy, speed, and efficiency of AI. They are essentially a modern prototype of what a development company should be like in order to meet all the new needs arising from the construction of data centers and the development of network infrastructure. The PLTR business portfolio is built around four key areas: Palantir Gotham, Palantir Foundry, Palantir AIP, and Palantir Apollo. Each of them is aimed at working with its own target audience (governmental and commercial sectors). Even though government contracts provide stable long-term cash flows, private contracts are growing faster and are expected to incr...

FilippoBacci/E+ via Getty Images Major U.S. tech firms are scaling back operations in Dubai as tensions escalate over the U.S.–Iran conflict, with office closures and travel disruptions leaving many employees stranded in the Gulf. Chipmaker Nvidia ( NVDA ) has temporarily shut down its Dubai office, with staff working remotely, as part of a broader safety push across the Middle East, including its large Israeli workforce. Amazon ( AMZN ), which operates corporate offices in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Egypt, Turkey, and Israel, said that it is instructing all of its corporate employees in the Middle East to work remotely and “follow local government guidelines.” Warehouses, quick-delivery services, and other facilities continue where possible, but the corporate side has pulled back significantly. Amazon Web Services suspended normal operations after two of its data centers in the UAE were hit by drone strikes, with another facility in Bahrain damaged by nearby blast effects, leading to significant service disruptions in the region. Dozens of Google employees who attended a sales conference in Dubai were stranded due to flight cancellations and travel disruptions triggered by the conflict. Google said the majority of impacted employees are not U.S.-based but in-region employees, according to a CNBC report . The company's internal communications acknowledged the “concerning” developments while stressing ongoing monitoring. Air travel across the Gulf has been severely affected, with thousands of flights canceled, compounding evacuation challenges. More on Amazon, Nvidia, etc. If We're At War, Buy Nvidia Alphabet Inc.

Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) is among the 13 Most Undervalued S&P 500 Stocks to Invest In. On March 1, 2026, Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) announced the grand opening of its semiconductor assembly and test facility in Sanand, Gujarat, India. The facility converts advanced DRAM and NAND wafers from Micron’s global manufacturing network into finished memory and storage products. Once fully ramped, the first phase of the Sanand operation will include more than 500,000 square feet of cleanroom space. On February 17, 2026, The Wall Street Journal reported that Micron is investing $50B in Boise to more than double the size of its 450-acre campus, including construction of two new chip factories. Silicon wafers from the first factory are expected to begin production in mid-2027, with each facility spanning 600,000 square feet. The company also recently broke ground on a $100B factory complex in New York and announced a $9.6B investment in Japan. The same day, Needham analyst N. Quinn Bolton raised the price target on Micron to $450 from $380 and maintained a Buy rating. N. Quinn Bolton cited a tightening memory market and memory pricing moving higher. Needham added that robust hyperscaler CapEx spending and the trend toward larger reasoning models with longer context windows are increasing demand for higher-performance memory and storage. Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) designs, develops, manufactures, and sells memory and storage products globally through its Cloud Memory, Core Data Center, Mobile and Client, and Automotive and Embedded business units. While we acknowledge the potential of MU as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.
