blackred/E+ via Getty Images This article updates my review of May 2025 in light of current holdings and recent performance. SYLD strategy Cambria Shareholder Yield ETF ( SYLD ) is an actively managed ETF launched on 5/14/2013. SYLD has a portfolio of 99 stocks, a 30-day SEC yield of 2.17%, and an expense ratio of 0.59%. Dividends are paid on a quarterly basis. The fund invests in U.S. companies with high shareholder yield, defined as the combination of dividend cash payments, buybacks, and debt paydowns. The portfolio is co-managed by Mebane Faber , co-founder of Cambria Investment Management and author of Shareholder Yield, A Better Approach to Dividend Investing . The fund implements a quantitative strategy described as follows by Cambria in the prospectus: Cambria selects the top 20% of stocks in the initial universe of U.S.-based, publicly listed companies based on their shareholder yield, as measured by dividend payments and net share buybacks. (...) Cambria’s quantitative algorithm then factors in the remaining stocks’ debt paydowns and applies a number of value metrics to create a composite, including metrics such as, but not limited to, price-to-book (P/B) ratio, price-to-sales (P/S) ratio, price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, price-to-free cash-flow (P/FCF or P/CF) ratio, and enterprise multiple (EV/EBITDA). Cambria then selects the top 100 stocks for inclusion in the Fund’s portfolio that exhibit, in the aggregate, the best combination of shareholder yield characteristics and value metrics. The fund tends to an equal-weight methodology, but weights may vary with market conditions and opportunities. The portfolio turnover rate was 42% in the most recent fiscal year and 50% in the previous year. As SYLD is classified by Morningstar in the Mid-Cap Value category, I will use as a benchmark the S&P MidCap 400 Index, represented by iShares Core S&P Mid-Cap ETF ( IJH ).

When it comes to stock investing, popularity does not always translate into gains. One only has to look at ad platform The Trade Desk or social media site Pinterest to know that user traffic does not necessarily translate into a rising stock price. Conversely, other stocks grow while largely escaping the notice of most investors or even the financial media. This appears to be the case for these two artificial intelligence (AI) stocks. ASML Perhaps no AI company embraces the lack of notoriety more than ASML Holding (ASML +2.78%). It goes so far as to bill itself as "the most important company that you've never heard of." A closer inspection of the company strongly backs up to this claim. The Netherlands-based company makes chipmaking equipment for other manufacturers. In the deep ultraviolet (DUV) lithography market, it has competitors like Canon and Nikon. However, more importantly, it is the dominant player in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography, the technology necessary to build the world's most advanced semiconductors. ASML's primary customers for this technology are Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Intel, and Samsung, making it understandable that most investors do not know this company. Still, one would think its financials would draw more attention, especially since it could turn into one of the best semiconductor stocks of 2026. In 2025, revenue of almost 33 billion euros ($38 billion) represented a 16% rise. It also kept cost and expense growth in check, leading to 9.6 billion euros ($11 billion) in net income, a 27% increase from year-ago levels. Looking forward, the company forecasts between 34 billion euros and 39 billion euros in yearly revenue for 2026. That translates into 14% annual revenue growth at the midpoint, which closely approximates 2025 growth levels.

This was driven by an increase of 19% in active customers and 35% in send volume. As a mobile remittance disruptor, Remitly is now targeting large-volume senders -- both individuals and businesses -- which is lowering its take rate but still driving robust revenue growth. Profitability also looked strong in the quarter, with operating margin hitting a record 9%. This figure has made steady progress as the business has scaled, which is great news for shareholders. Remitly management sees even more growth ahead in 2026, calling for 19%-20% revenue growth to close to $2 billion in total sales. If operating margin climbs to 10%, that is $200 million in GAAP earnings in 2026, vs. a current market cap of $3.67 billion. Time to buy Remitly Global stock?

For the third day in a row, shares of hydrogen fuel cell pioneer Plug Power (PLUG +10.76%) stock powered higher on Wednesday. Plug reported Q4 earnings two days ago, as you may recall. Losing (only) $0.06 per share (adjusted) on sales of $225.2 million in Q4, the company beat on both top and bottom lines, igniting a buying frenzy that sent the stock skyrocketing 23%. On Wednesday, the momentum kept going. By the time the closing bell rang, Plug stock was up another 11%. But earnings aren't the only reason Plug is going up. The other reason Plug popped Wells Fargo analyst Michael Blum raised his price target on Plug Power stock by 33%, to $2 per share, today. Admittedly, Plug stock now costs closer to $2.50 per share, so the new PT isn't quite as good news as investors are making it out to be. Still, it's an excuse to keep buying. Blum notes that Plug's recent debt restructuring, in which the company took on new debt to pay off old debt, has strengthened the company's balance sheet, giving Plug access to "$368.5MM in unrestricted cash" and putting the company in a position where it (says it) has enough money to get it "through 2026" without needing to sell more shares.

That's the good news. Now here's the bad: Plug is promising to turn EBITDA-profitable by the end of 2026. Blum warns end-of-2027 is more likely. Not helping matters is Plug's warning 2026 revenues will grow only 13%, less than half what Wall Street expected. Forecasting slower growth and greater losses, Blum's keeping Plug stock at "equal weight" despite raising the price target. I'll go even further than that: I still think Plug stock is a sell.

Are investors in Plug Power (NASDAQ: PLUG) stock irrationally exuberant? Yesterday, shares of the hydrogen fuel cell manufacturer surged to close 26% higher after announcing an expanded strategic collaboration with Australian partner Allied Green Ammonia, whereby the two companies will build a $5.5 billion green chemical production facility in Uzbekistan, and there produce electrolyzer to create hydrogen fuel. Today, Plug Power stock is up another 16% through 10:15 a.m. ET. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » Are any other catalysts fueling Plug Power's rise? Plug CFO's big buy Turns out, there are. Yesterday, I was unimpressed by Plug's announcement of the Uzbekistan project, which Plug boasted created a "5 GW partnership now spanning two continents" between itself and Allied Green Ammonia. After all, the companies' Australian project hasn't yet received a "final investment decision," while the Uzbekistan deal is in even earlier stages. It all seems very hypothetical to me. Plug Power's own CFO, Paul Middleton, though, seems to see things differently. In a sterling example of putting money where one's mouth is, Middleton yesterday purchased an additional 650,000 Plug Power shares on the open market, the same day the Uzbekistan deal was announced. Priced at $1.03 per share, that's a $672,000 bet that Plug Power stock is the real deal. And to drive the point home, Middleton added, "This additional investment reflects my strong conviction in Plug's strategy and long-term value creation." Is Plug Power stock a buy? Still, there are other ways to view Middleton's investment. Middleton already owned nearly 2 million Plug shares before yesterday's purchase, which are now worth $0.43 per share more than they were worth last week. His net worth just jumped by more than $800,000. If nothing else, yesterday's news just created a lot of value for Plug's CFO. Should you invest $...

Venezuela and the US are scrutinizing dozens of confidential oil contracts signed during the reign of ousted strongman Nicolas Maduro , according to people familiar with the situation. The deals, conceived as a means of circumventing US sanctions to fund the socialist regime, involved oil fields across the Latin American nation, the people said. The agreements known as productive participation contracts allowed investors to pump and trade crude while keeping their names secret to avoid economic reprisals by the US, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing confidential matters. The contracts also allowed the government to work with private companies despite legal restrictions on oil sales by non-state actors. Now, under pressure from the Trump administration, the Venezuelan government is auditing the firms involved, while US officials inspect export paperwork, the people said. The inquiries may slow any recovery of the Venezuelan oil sector, especially if it makes other companies reluctant sign new contracts to drill for crude. “There are many concerns on how these contracts were awarded,” said Juan Fernández, a former executive at state oil company PDVSA who now advises opposition leader Maria Corina Machado on oil policy. “But on the other hand, if they are currently producing barrels of oil, we need those barrels. So we need to balance how we are going to deal with this.” Read More: Trump Sends Interior Secretary to Venezuela to Push Oil, Mining It’s also unclear if Venezuela will resist the US entreaty. On Tuesday, Petróleos de Venezuela SA announced it had inked supply contracts with companies trading crude oil and refined products destined for the US, just days after interim President Delcy Rodriguez called for deals struck under Maduro’s rule to “be respected.” Where will the price of Brent crude be at the end of March?

Sweetgreen (SG +3.75%) hasn't exactly panned out the way that investors had hoped. Shares in the health-forward fast-casual dining concept are currently about 89% below their price on the initial public offering (IPO) date in November 2021. In fact, they are essentially trading at their lowest level ever. The bulls are hungry for better days ahead. Is Sweetgreen stock going to $10? Looking at the past Reaching a $10 price target would not be uncharted territory for Sweetgreen. This business started trading on the public market at $52 per share. And after extreme volatility that saw the stock tank, shares soared to $44 in late 2024. Since then, however, there has clearly been extreme pessimism. Shares traded at a price of $5.36 recently, which showcases severely depressed market sentiment. That view is justified. Sweetgreen registered year-over-year revenue growth of 0.4% in fiscal 2025 (ended Dec. 28, 2025), down from robust double-digit gains in the previous four fiscal years. Same-store sales slumped 7.9% last fiscal year as well, as foot traffic fell. With this type of disappointing financial performance, the share price increasing 87% from $5.36 to $10 seems like a very low-probability outcome.

In fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2025, it posted net losses of $90 million and $134 million, respectively. Wall Street analysts don't see this trend changing anytime soon. The consensus view is that Sweetgreen will report an earnings-per-share loss of $0.61 in fiscal 2028. As a result of this situation, the stock can't be valued based on profits because there are none. Investors will need to look at the price-to-sales (P/S) ratio, which currently stands at just over ...

Trump's Venezuela Oil Plan Runs Into Hard Reality Authored by Andrew Topf via oilprice.com , Last week US President Donald Trump announced that Venezuela’s interim authorities will turn over up to 50 million barrels of oil to the United States, before later declaring his administration will control Venezuela's oil sales “indefinitely”. Decrying the state of Venezuela’s oil sector , including that the South American country now pumps a fraction of what it used to, Trump said, “ We’re going to have our very large United States oil companies — the biggest anywhere in the world — go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure, the oil infrastructure, and start making money for the country .” While that sounds like a great opportunity for the US oil majors, it’s one they may want to refuse . Why? Because the oil underneath Venezuela , which has the largest crude reserves in the world, greater even than Saudi Arabia and Iran, is technically challenging to extract and costly. Moreover, it’s uncertain whether there would a change in the way Venezuela and its oil industry are being run , which presents a huge political risk for companies to return and operate there. Former President Hugo Chavez nationalized the oil industry in the 1990s, and in 2007, he forced Exxon and ConocoPhillips out, after the companies refused to accept new terms that would give the Venezuelan state oil company, PDVSA, a majority share in their projects. ConocoPhillips is still owed about $10 billion. Only Chevron is currently authorized to operate in Venezuela and export crude to the United States. “Until Caracas has a new government capable of gaining the confidence of international investors and banks, oil companies will be reluctant to make any major commitments,” states a recent Reuters piece . When Trump met with oil executives last Friday, Exxon’s CEO Darren Woods said, “We’ve had our assets seized there twice, and so you can imagine to re-enter a third time would require...
