GameStop ( GME ) is preparing to make an offer for eBay ( EBAY ), reported The Wall Street Journal on Friday. According to the article , citing people familiar with the matter, GameStop has been quietly building a stake in eBay’s shares ahead of a potential offer. eBay, which has a market cap of over $46B, rose 10.2% in extended trading. GameStop could submit an offer for eBay as soon as later this month, WSJ said. If eBay isn’t receptive, GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen could decide to take the offer directly to eBay’s shareholders, the report added, citing one of the people. GameStop and eBay did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Cohen said in late January he aims to pull off a "very, very, very big" acquisition of a larger consumer company that would be transformational for its future. He noted that GameStop's ideal target will be a consumer company that’s undervalued, but that is high quality, durable, and scalable with growth prospects. Notably, Cohen has an incentive package that reinforces the bet-the-company nature of the acquisition strategy, paying out only if GameStop ( GME ) reaches at least $20B in market cap and $2B in cumulative EBITDA, with full vesting tied to a $100B market cap and $10B in cumulative EBITDA. Earlier in March, Best Buy shares also jumped amid speculation that the electronics retailer may be a potential takeover target for GameStop. GameStop is trading 3% higher after-hours on Friday. Overall, the company's stock, which has a market cap of over $11B, has gained over 32% so far this year. Recently, famed investor Michael Burry bought GameStop, adding to his “already decent sized position.” More on GameStop, eBay eBay Inc.

USAF Tests Interceptor Drone To Hunt Iranian Shahed-Style Threat Defense Blog's Dylan Malyasov reports that U.S. Air Force Special Warfare Airmen tested a counter-drone interceptor in Arizona, designed as a low-cost solution against one-way attack drones, such as Iran's Shahed drone. Malyasov said the Guardian-1 Interceptor from defense startup Powerus was recently tested at the Arizona Army National Guard's Florence Military Reservation and involved Airmen from the 48th Rescue Squadron, 7th Air Support Operations Squadron, and 316th Civil Engineer Squadron EOD. The field training exercise allowed the Guardian-1 Interceptor to intercept a Shahed-style drone, which is widely used by Russia in Ukraine and has become a major nuisance for US airbases in the region amid the ongoing US-Iran conflict. Malyasov explained: The exercise integrated a commercial kinetic interceptor with an expeditionary counter-small UAS capability to address what the Air Force describes as critical capability gaps for small teams operating outside the wire — forward-deployed elements that lack access to the fixed-site air defense systems that protect larger bases and installations. "A beautiful sight. Our interceptor drone locking onto a target drone high above a U.S. military base. Clean skies, pure precision. This is next-gen air defense in action," Powerus founder Brett Velicovich told the defense media outlet. The Guardian-1 weighs around 6.6 pounds with its battery and can reach speeds in excess of 200 mph, with a maximum range of about 9.3 miles. The interceptor can reach altitudes of up to 16,400 feet. US Air Force tested a Powerus commercial drone killer in Arizona against a simulated Shahed-type target — the same one-way attack drone used in Ukraine and the Gulf. Weighs 2.65 kg, costs a fraction of what it kills.

In this article BRK.B Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Greg Abel, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, meets with shareholders at the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholders Meeting in Omaha, NE on May 1, 2026. David A. Grogan | CNBC OMAHA, Nebraska — At the shareholder shopping day that kicks off Berkshire Hathaway 's annual meeting, the mood in the air was cautiously optimistic as new and returning investors weighed the company's direction under a new chief executive. Shareholders in a noticeably thinner crowd Friday expressed skepticism that Greg Abel, who took over as CEO in January, will command the stage with the same storytelling and wit that Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger used to enrapture tens of thousands of attendees for decades. At the same time, they also expressed confidence in Buffett's pick to take over the conglomerate, as the billionaire investor has been effusive in his praise for Abel over the years. "I spent a lot of time studying Greg," said Robert Hagstrom, chief investment officer at EquityCompass Investment Management. "I think he's not only the right guy — and he's been vetted for so many years by so many people — but he's the right guy at the right time." Hagstrom, who wrote on Buffett's investing principles in "The Warren Buffett Way," has said that Abel will bring an operational expertise that will align with Berkshire's future. That confidence in Buffett's pick was echoed through the convention center. Peter Yang, an international trade business owner who traveled 18 hours from Hong Kong to Omaha, was attending the gathering for the first time. He bought Berkshire shares last year after Buffett signaled his plan to step down as chief executive. Yang said he's at ease with the transition, noting that Buffett's endorsement of Greg Abel gives him confidence in the succession. "I have confidence in Greg because Warren wouldn't hand over the reins to someone who isn't capable. I'm not concerned about the company," Yang said. Like othe...

【有線新聞】美國和北約盟友的關係惡化，戰爭部宣布撤走5000名駐德國美軍，據報原定的遠程導彈部署亦會取消，撤走的美軍亦不會調派到其他歐洲國家。 美國總統特朗普早前說，正研究削減駐德國美軍人數。戰爭部發言人宣布，經詳細審視美軍在歐洲的部署、戰區需求及地面情況後，決定從德國撤走5000名美軍，預計6至12個月內完成。目前約有三萬六千美軍駐紮在德國，是歐洲地區最多，在撤軍後當地的美軍，會降至2022年俄羅斯入侵烏克蘭前的水平。 有華府官員預計撤走的美軍不會在其他歐洲國家重新部署，而改派到西半球和印太地區。有五角大樓高官指，一個旅的陸軍戰鬥部隊將撤出德國。上屆拜登政府決定今年內在德國部署配備遠程常規導彈的戰鬥營，計劃亦會取消。美軍在德國有大型基地和其他設施，包括美國非洲和歐洲司令部總部，更設有美國境外最大的美軍醫院，近期用於治療在伊朗行動中受傷的軍人。 據報有德國官員對華府公布決定的時機感到意外，認為德國是美軍在伊朗戰事的後勤和補給樞紐，柏林政府亦已應特朗普要求大幅增加國防預算。德國外長瓦德富爾較早前稱：「已對有美軍撤出做好準備，期望華府作出對盟友合適的決定。」特朗普指控歐洲盟友不支援美國對伊朗的軍事行動，德國總理默茨早前批評美國行動欠缺策略，被德黑蘭領導層羞辱，成為撤軍的導火線。

Earnings Call Insights: Huntsman (HUN) Q1 2026 Management view Huntsman’s near-term narrative centered on pricing discipline and stronger order patterns tied to the Middle East conflict’s cost and logistics impact. Chairman, President & CEO Peter Huntsman said, "From the first hours of this conflict, our #1 commercial priority has been to increase prices enough to offset rising costs. I believe we've been successful in doing this." He added that operations execution has been strong: "Our operations during the first quarter and going into the second quarter have been excellent." Management described demand in early Q2 as better than expected, while emphasizing limited forward visibility. CEO Huntsman said, "From a sales perspective, we are seeing stronger-than-expected demand going well into the second quarter," and attributed it to "seasonality," "customers who are buying ahead of the expected price increases," and "disruptions that have been seen in certain trade flows." He cautioned, "I can't see order patterns that go through the month of June," and later added, "Today, that visibility is less clear as we look further into the quarter." In prepared remarks and Q&A, management framed a margin-recovery push after a prolonged downturn. CEO Huntsman said, "We are aggressively raising our prices to both cover our cost of our raw materials while also expanding margins from the trough economics that we've been experiencing for the past 3 years," while acknowledging, "we still have a ways to go to get to our normalized margin levels." CFO commentary during Q&A emphasized where economics are improving in China and how price capture is expected to work. Executive VP & CFO Philip Lister said, "where the Chinese joint venture is making money today is on propylene oxide and the margins that we're seeing there over and above propylene," and added on the step-up dynamics, "we are seeing pricing exceed the raw material increases." Outlook Management’s Q2 setup highlighted raw-ma...

U.S. petroleum inventories are declining, although they are still above year-ago levels. Plus, market newsletter commentary on the Federal Reserve, consumer spending, and the growth of the venture-capital market.

Welcome back to Canada Daily, the newsletter on business, economics and politics from Vancouver to Montreal and beyond. If this was forwarded to you, sign up . Can elite professional soccer survive in Vancouver? Time appears to be running out on the Vancouver Whitecaps, a club that’s near the top of the standings in Major League Soccer with eight wins in nine games but is, in financial terms, a big loser. As reported first by Bloomberg News this week, the Whitecaps have racked up losses of about $300 million since joining North America’s top men’s soccer league. Its owners put the team for sale more than a year ago, but Goldman Sachs has been unable to find buyers willing to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to acquire it, then absorb years of operating losses in Vancouver while building a new stadium. The club’s fate has now entered the political arena. British Columbia Premier David Eby met MLS Commissioner Don Garber this week to discuss ways to keep the Caps on Canada’s west coast. (This led to a rather odd social media incident .) League executives are planning more meetings in the coming weeks, according to a spokesperson. But there’s no sign of a savior — except for the group that wants to buy the team to move it to Las Vegas . It will be a bitter day for Vancouver soccer fans if the Whitecaps leave. The city has lost sports franchises before, most famously the National Basketball Association’s Grizzlies, which are now in Memphis. But that team barely had a chance to get established. The Whitecaps have much deeper roots. The club got its start in the North American Soccer League in the 1970s. When the team claimed the Soccer Bowl championship in 1979, tens of thousands lined the streets downtown for the victory parade. When the NASL folded, the Whitecaps hung around in soccer’s minor leagues. Businessman Greg Kerfoot took control in the early 2000s and eventually steered the move into MLS. But tradition is one thing. Money’s another, and its looks as thou...
