UK Councils Warn Schools: Children's Drawings Could Be Blasphemous Under Islamic Law Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news, In yet another assault on free expression in British classrooms, schools are being instructed by Labour councils to treat kids’ innocent drawings as potential offenses under Islamic interpretations. Guidelines warn that depicting humans or prophets could spark blasphemy complaints, forcing teachers to tiptoe around religious sensitivities at the expense of creativity and open education. The push comes amid a broader Labour government drive to monitor and suppress any perceived slights against Muslims, turning schools into surveillance outposts rather than places of learning. Pupils' drawings could be blasphemous under Islamic law, Labour councils tell schools - while music and dance classes may go against the teachings of Islam https://t.co/fB8uWaSvx8 — Daily Mail (@DailyMail) March 11, 2026 The guidance, titled “Sharing the Journey,” originates from northern Labour councils like Leeds, Calderdale, Oldham, and Wakefield, and has been adopted by others including Sefton and Tameside. It explicitly states that “for some Muslim parents, sensitivities may exist in connection with the teaching of aspects of art, dance, drama, music, physical education, religious education and RSHE”. Teachers are advised: “It is very important that the school understands this and is also careful not to ask its students to reproduce images of Jesus, the Prophet Mohammed or other figures considered to be prophets in Islam. Some Muslim pupils may not wish to draw the human figure.” This stems from hadith interpretations prohibiting images of living beings, viewed as idolatrous by some sects. The restrictions don’t stop at art. On music, the document notes: “in Islam, music is traditionally limited to the human voice and non-tuneable percussion instruments as in the days of the Prophet, when they were only used in marriage ceremonies and on the battlefield”. It adds...

Key Points Although the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite have soared in recent years, things may not be as rosy for Wall Street as these indexes suggest. The Iran war may bring the Fed's rate-easing cycle to a halt, which would be a devastating blow for a historically expensive stock market. Furthermore, historic divisions within the FOMC, coupled with a pending change in Fed chair, put the nation's central bank (and Wall Street) in a precarious position. 10 stocks we like better than S&P 500 Index › Since the start of 2019, things have gone exceptionally well for Wall Street and investors. The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) has registered at least a 16% gain in six of the last seven years, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) and Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) have both motored to several record-closing highs. Upside catalysts have been abundant, including the evolution of artificial intelligence, better-than-expected corporate earnings, stock-split euphoria, record S&P 500 share buybacks, and the Federal Reserve's rate-easing cycle, which began in September 2024. 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 » However, things may not be as rosy for Wall Street as the performance of its three leading stock indexes indicates. The Donald Trump-led Iran war, which commenced on Feb. 28, potentially opens a can of worms for America's foremost financial institution, the Federal Reserve. When added to existing concerns, the Fed is facing a possible triple whammy that would, in all likelihood, adversely impact a historically pricey stock market. The Iran war raises stagflation worries and (likely) places the Fed's rate-easing cycle on ice Two weeks ago, the U.S. and Israel began military operations against Iran. Shortly after the conflict commenced, Iran v...

imaginima/iStock via Getty Images Investment Thesis AMD ( AMD ) is still misunderstood and broadly perceived as a strong CPU player and a secondary player to Nvidia ( NVDA ) in the GPU space. I still think that is an incorrect way to look at it. The AI infrastructure is growing from a training-only model to a systems/inference model that is less dependent on a software stack. AMD has a strong chance to grow with its record revenue of $34.6 billion in 2025 with its hyperscaler partners OpenAI ( OPENAI ), Meta, and Oracle with the MI450. AMD is down 10% since my last coverage, but the outlook has only gotten stronger. AMD's Hidden Advantage: The CPU-GPU Data Center Flywheel Investors are concerned about the opportunity for AMD GPUs. This is a valid concern. The Data Center opportunity for AMD is misunderstood by investors. The Data Center opportunity for AMD is driven by a flywheel effect of two engines: EPYC server CPUs , which are growing server CPU share over time, and Instinct GPUs, which are now becoming relevant to hyperscalers. The fact that AI computing clusters are not built around GPUs is not true. The fact that CPUs are required for orchestration, head nodes, storage, and increasingly agentic computing is not true. This is reinforced by the management commentary. On the Q4 call, Lisa Su said server CPU demand remained strong even in a seasonally weak quarter. Further, the company expects Q1’26 server CPU revenue to increase sequentially into Q1. Additionally, there is very high customer demand for the upcoming Venice platform. This is important to note since it suggests the company’s EPYC products are not just holding their own against the competition but are actually gaining traction ahead of the company’s MI450 GPU product cycle. This is important since the company is launching its biggest product cycle in accelerators while its CPUs are strong and generating significant revenue. The financials suggest the company is improving its operating leverage. On t...

Thapana Onphalai/iStock via Getty Images Inspiration Joel Greenblatt is a well-known value investor and founder of Gotham Asset Management. He earned his credibility as an investor by achieving ~50% annualized returns between 1985 and 1994, and later through his investing firm and public appearances. In 2005, Mr. Greenblatt published "The Little Book That Beats the Market" in which he shared his "magic formula" to systematically buy good companies at bargain prices. The concept was simple yet powerful, and the backtested results shared in the book were phenomenal. In his test, between 1988 and 2004 [17 years], Mr. Greenblatt claimed the "magic formula" achieved an annual return of 30.8%, compared to a 12.8% return for the S&P 500. This is an exceptionally higher return that could have turned $10k into roughly $1 million using the "magic formula" versus only $73k invested in the S&P 500. It's been more than 20 years since the book was published, and there have been a handful of published attempts at verifying whether or not the "magic formula" actually worked. In one study published in the Journal of Business and Economic Research , Patrick Larkin produced an annual return of ~19.1% testing the "magic formula" between 1998 and 2006, outperforming the S&P 500 by 16.5%. Granted, the tested timeframe was relatively short and included the Dot Com Bubble where a value focus performed very well relative to the broad market. Another outcome claims to have achieved a 19.5% annualized return between 1988 and 2009, focusing on companies with market capitalizations above $1 billion. The study is credited to Barron's, but I was unable to find the source, just a reference to it in this article published on Yahoo in 2015. Verifying the actual results was challenging because Greenblatt only partially revealed his test and methodology. But to examine whether the magic formula really works we should start by understanding the formula. The Original Magic Formula The magic formula is d...

In investing, there's no need to invest in individual stocks to achieve strong returns over time. Don't get me wrong. I own about 40 different individual stocks and completely believe it's possible to beat the market over time. But even if you simply match the market's performance through the magic of index fund investing, you might be surprised at the results. With that in mind, here are five simple index funds that could help set you on the path to a million-dollar retirement portfolio, and with minimal ongoing effort on your part. We'll also look at how you can use these to grow your portfolio to a seven-figure sum before you retire. 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 » Five simple index funds to buy and hold for decades To be fair, there are hundreds of solid index funds that could make excellent retirement investments for you. But if I were to start a portfolio from scratch today and could only choose five index funds, here's what they would be: How can you turn these into a million-dollar retirement portfolio? Let's assume for a second that you'll average 10% returns annually with these index funds. Here's how much you would need to invest per month (total, not in each fund) to reach a $1 million nest egg, depending on how long you have until your retirement: Years Until Retirement Monthly Investment to Reach $1 Million 20 years $1,455 25 years $847 30 years $507 40 years $188 One extremely important takeaway from this chart is the earlier you get started, the easier it will be to reach your goals. Someone who starts buying index funds when they're 40 years from retirement has to save less than one-fourth as much per month as someone who waits until 25 years from retirement. It's also worth noting that many people want to retire with significantly more than $1 million, so this chart can be adjusted to give you an idea of how much to invest. For example, if you w...

On Wednesday, Federal Communications Commission chairman Brendan Carr criticized Amazon.com, Inc. for opposing SpaceX's proposal to launch a massive satellite-based data center network FCC Chair Criticizes Amazon's Petition Against SpaceX "Amazon should focus on the fact that it will fall roughly 1,000 satellites short of meeting its upcoming deployment milestone," Carr wrote in a post on X. He said that the Jeff Bezos-founded company would be better off working toward that instead of filing petitions against companies that are placing thousands of satellites into orbit. Amazon should focus on the fact that it will fall roughly 1,000 satellites short of meeting its upcoming deployment milestone, rather than spending their time and resources filing petitions against companies that are putting thousands of satellites in orbit. https://t.co/90Vn20Fq1R Don't Miss: Separately, Carr told Reuters he does not expect Amazon's petition against SpaceX to "get much traction." His remarks came after Amazon asked the FCC to reject Elon Musk-led SpaceX's request to deploy up to 1 million low Earth orbit satellites. Amazon Questions SpaceX's 1-Million-Satellite AI Network In its filing, Amazon described the proposal as a "lofty ambition rather than a real plan," arguing that SpaceX has provided limited technical details on how the massive constellation would operate. Amazon also warned the proposal could worsen concerns raised by scientists and astronomers about light pollution, orbital debris and the risk of Kessler syndrome — a scenario where collisions between space objects trigger a chain reaction of debris.

Peloton Interactive (PTON 1.59%) was once on top of the world. Incredible demand pushed the shares to new heights. More than five years ago in January 2021, the company's market cap approached $50 billion. The fundamentals drastically weakened following the depths of the COVID-19 pandemic. And Peloton now trades 98% below its peak (as of March 11). Is the sell-off in this bike stock overblown? The market is correct to be so pessimistic toward this business. Peloton's management team expects the company to report revenue of $2.4 billion in fiscal 2026 (ending June 30, 2026). If this forecast is accurate, it will mark the fifth straight year that Peloton registered a year-over-year sales decline. Investors are rightfully punishing the business for a lack of growth.

It reported positive free cash flow in the second quarter (ended Dec. 31, 2025). And its net debt has decreased. However, the company isn't giving investors any reason to believe that durable growth can be achieved in the future. Peloton recently introduced personalized coaching powered by artificial intelligence. And it overhauled its product lineup. These moves didn't support notable demand during the holiday shopping period. Shares trade at a dirt cheap price-to-sales ratio of under 0.7. That valuation appears to be warranted.
