The deal terms currently stand at $32 per share, with an equity value of $6.5 billion and an enterprise value of $31.5 billion, given Caesars' substantial debt, the sources said. The deal, if it gets done, would not be finalized until early April and is not expected to close until 2027. The talks are taking place within a 45-day exclusive window, according to the sources. The talks are happening this weekend at Fertitta's headquarters, the Post Oak Hotel in Houston. To satisfy ethics requirements in becoming the U.S. Ambassador to Italy in 2025, Fertitta stepped down as CEO of the company that includes Landry's, the Houston Rockets, and the Golden Nugget casino in Las Vegas. "As a matter of policy, we do not comment on market rumors or speculation," Caesars said in a statement. Fertitta did not respond to CNBC's request for comment. On Wednesday, The Wall Street Journal reported billionaire Carl Icahn made a bid of $33 per share and was topped by Fertitta's bid of $34 per share. Sources on both sides of the negotiations told CNBC they suspect Icahn is trying to drive up the deal price to increase the value of his own stake in Caesars. According to FactSet, Icahn owns 1.2% of outstanding shares, although one source said his overall holdings in Caesars total some 18 million shares, including derivatives.

In Brief Apple’s new MacBook Neo isn’t just the most affordable MacBook by far — it’s also the most repairable MacBook in “about fourteen years,” according to an in-depth teardown by how-to website iFixit. The “big story,” in iFixit’s view, is the battery. While older MacBook batteries are supposedly glued into place, the Neo’s battery is held by a tray secured with 18 screws. That’s a lot of screws, but iFixit declared that “screws still beat adhesive every time.” In fact, this new arrangement — which should make it much easier to replace your MacBook battery — “sent cheers across the iFixit office.” Other changes that reportedly make the MacBook Neo more repairable: a flat disassembly tree, the fact that Repair Assistant appears to accept replacement parts without complaint, and an easier-to-replace display and keyboard. Ultimately, iFixit still had enough concerns — like soldered RAM and storage — that it only gave the Neo repairability score of 6 out of 10. But it said that for a MacBook, “that’s a strong score.”

Shares of streaming leader Netflix (NFLX +1.15%) have soared recently, and for a good reason: management walked away from a massive, risky acquisition. When the company officially abandoned its pursuit of Warner Bros. Discovery's studio assets -- a deal previously valued at $82.7 billion -- the stock jumped; Wall Street cheered the move, viewing it as a clear sign of capital discipline. Walking away meant avoiding a complex integration and dodging a massive financial commitment. More importantly, it meant Netflix could immediately resume its share repurchase program, supported by the impressive $9.5 billion in free cash flow it generated in 2025. Combined with the company's strong underlying business performance, the canceled deal bolstered the bull case. But is the stock a buy today?

But investors need to ask a more fundamental question: Why was the company considering a transaction of that scale in the first place?

The fact that the company even considered the Warner Bros. deal suggests how important Netflix believes it is to continue aggressively spending on content to defend its turf. And Netflix has always been open about this environment. "We have long stated that we compete against all activities people engage with during their leisure time, including, but not limited to, other streaming services, linear television, social media, open content platforms, video gaming, and concerts to name just a few," Netflix explained during its fourth-quarter shareholder letter.

FCC Chairman Brendan Carr testifies during a House Energy and Commerce Communications and Technology Subcommittee hearing on "Oversight of the Federal Communications Commission" on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, on Jan. 14, 2026. Saul Loeb | AFP | Getty Images Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr on Saturday blasted broadcasters shortly after President Donald Trump called reports that Iran struck five U.S. tanker planes "fake news." In a post on X , Carr also warned that broadcasters will lose their licenses if they don't "operate in the public interest." "Broadcasters that are running hoaxes and news distortions - also known as the fake news - have a chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up," Carr wrote in the post, which attached Trump's statement on Truth Social earlier Saturday. "It is very important to bring trust back into media, which has earned itself the label of fake news," Carr added. The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday that five refueling tankers were struck during an Iranian missile strike on the Prince Sultan air base in Saudi Arabia. In the Truth Social post on Saturday, Trump called that an "intentionally misleading headline," citing the Journal, The New York Times and what he called other "Lowlife" papers. The president also said four of the five Air Force refueling planes hit in the Iranian strike on Saudi Arabia sustained "virtually no damage, and are already back in service."

财联社3月15日讯（编辑 牛占林） 据媒体最新报道，科技巨头Meta正计划进行一轮大规模裁员，裁员规模可能达到公司员工总数的20%甚至更多。此举旨在抵消人工智能(AI)基础设施投资带来的巨额成本，并为未来AI辅助员工带来的更高效率做准备。 消息人士称，目前裁员的具体时间尚未确定，规模也尚未最终敲定。其中两位知情人士透露，近期公司高层已经向其他高级管理人员传达了相关计划，并要求他们开始制定方案，研究如何缩减团队规模。 针对相关问询，Meta发言人Andy Stone回应称：“这些报道只是关于理论性方案的猜测性报道。” 如果最终确定裁员比例达到20%，这将成为Meta自2022年底至2023年初“效率之年”重组计划以来规模最大的一轮裁员。 根据公司最新财报，截至去年12月31日，Meta员工总数约为7.9万人。这意味着若裁员20%，意味着约1.6万个岗位将被裁撤。 在此前的裁员行动中，Meta曾于2022年11月裁员约1.1万人，占当时员工总数约13%。约四个月后，该公司又宣布再裁减1万个岗位。 过去一年，Meta首席执行官扎克伯格一直在推动公司更积极地参与生成式人工智能竞争。 为组建新的"超级智能"团队，Meta向顶尖AI研究人员开出了巨额薪酬包，部分薪酬方案在四年内总额可达到数亿美元。 Meta此前表示，计划在2028年前投资6000亿美元建设数据中心。本周早些时候，公司还收购了专为AI智能体打造的社交平台Moltbook。 扎克伯格也多次提到，这些AI投资将带来效率提升。他在今年1月表示：“一些过去需要大型团队完成的项目，现在只需要一名非常优秀的人才就可以完成。” 已成行业趋势 Meta的计划反映出今年美国大型企业，尤其是科技公司的一种普遍趋势。越来越多企业高管将AI能力的快速提升视为推动组织结构调整的重要原因。 今年1月份，亚马逊已确认将裁减约1.6万个岗位，约占其员工总数的近10%。 上个月，金融科技公司Block也裁掉了近一半员工。其首席执行官杰克·多尔西公开表示，AI工具能力的提升意味着企业能够用更小的团队完成更多工作。 软件巨头ServiceNow的首席执行官Bill McDermott周五预测，未来几年大学应届毕业生失业率很容易超过30%，因AI普及得以使企业提升生产率，削减成本和岗位。 这些裁员揭示了硅谷的新战略：随着AI能力日益增强，科技巨头们押注...

Size can be important for many businesses because economies of scale are important in some industries. That is true in the parcel delivery business, where FedEx (FDX 0.28%) and United Parcel Service (UPS 0.69%) are fierce rivals. It's notable that FedEx's market cap just surpassed UPS's, but that alone isn't enough to distinguish between these two industry leaders. Here's a closer look at which of these two stocks is the smarter buy in 2026. FedEx and UPS are both industry giants FedEx's market cap is around $83 billion. UPS' market cap is also around $83 billion. What's really notable here is that UPS' market cap has declined by 40% over the past five years while FedEx's market cap has increased by 15%. The divergence between these two industrial stocks is the real story, as Wall Street clearly believes that UPS isn't as valuable a business as it once was. There's some truth in that statement, given that the company has undertaken a material business overhaul. The express goal is to become a smaller, leaner, and more nimble business. The turnaround effort has involved divesting older delivery assets, investing in new facilities and technology, and shedding employees. The company even decided to shift away from customers who ship large volumes but only offer UPS low profits on that business. FedEx has been making changes to its business, as well, but they haven't been nearly as dramatic. Is FedEx or UPS the better buy? UPS believes 2026 will be an inflection point in its turnaround effort, with the second half of the year stronger than the first. In 2025, there were early signs of progress as the company's revenue per piece rose in the U.S. market despite declining total revenues. That's basically what the company has been aiming for, as it refocuses on its most profitable customers and sheds assets that are less productive. If the company's financial performance continues to improve, Wall Street may be willing to afford it a higher valuation. Expand NYSE : UPS Unit...

Key Points Operating margin is the key metric to monitor. Even small improvements in margin at Walmart’s scale can significantly enhance long-term returns. 10 stocks we like better than Walmart › Walmart (NASDAQ: WMT) has built its reputation on scale and stability. Revenue continues to grow steadily, supported by grocery dominance and disciplined execution. But as the new year rolls along, revenue growth is not the main thing for investors to watch. The more important issue for long-term investors is whether Walmart can improve its margins and bolster return on capital. 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 » Cost leadership has its downsides Walmart's historic advantage lies in cost leadership. Massive purchasing power and logistics efficiency allow it to operate on thin margins while still generating substantial operating income. In the fiscal year ended Jan. 31, 2026, Walmart generated $30 billion in operating income on $713 billion in revenue, with an operating margin of just above 4%. That model has proven durable across economic cycles. However, it also constrains pricing power. Walmart competes primarily on value, and that limits the margin expansion as it can't just increase prices and expect to keep customers. For years, volume growth and efficiency gains have supported stable profitability. But maintaining margins is different from expanding them. In 2026, stability may not be enough, especially as investors expect more from the ongoing diversification.

The Trump administration’s communications licensing tsar fired a warning shot over the US broadcasting industry Saturday, threatening to cancel the spectrum permits of broadcasters pushing what he termed “hoaxes and news distortions”. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chair Brendan Carr posted on social media that broadcasters running “fake news – have a chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up. The law is clear. Broadcasters must operate in the public interest, and they will lose their licenses if they do not.” The FCC has control over the electromagnetic spectrum, colloquially termed the airwaves, including “commercial and non-commercial fixed and mobile wireless services, broadcast television and radio, satellite and other services” under the Communications Act of 1934. Carr’s warning comes amid sustained complaints from Trump and members of the administration over its treatment by what it derisively terms “the mainstream media” and what it considers unflattering or unpatriotic coverage of the conflict in Iran. In his post, Carr copied a Truth Social post by Trump complaining about “misleading” coverage on Iran. “Yet again, an intentionally misleading headline by the Fake News Media about the five tanker planes that were supposedly struck down at an Airport in Saudi Arabia, and of no further use,” Trump wrote Saturday on Truth Social. Trump singled out the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, saying that they “and other Lowlife ‘Papers’ and Media actually want us to lose the War”, calling the outlets’ reporting “the exact opposite of the actual facts!” “They are truly sick and demented people that have no idea the damage they cause the United States of America,” he added. Trump’s comments came after defense secretary Pete Hegseth, who has been accused of being thin-skinned about his portrayals in the media and attempting to restrict credentialled reporters from the Pentagon, lambasted the media’s coverage of the conflict. He...

There was no bow this time at the Milan Cortina Games for Jake Adicoff, the first out gay American male Winter Paralympic champion. Instead, he was tackled to the ground by teammate Oksana Masters after they helped the United States win the Para cross-country mixed relay on Saturday. “It was initially a hug, and then she kind of put all her weight into it, and then all of a sudden I was on the ground,” Adicoff said. “She goes crazy, she’s got a lot of passion. She takes that to the race course and to the celebrations afterwards.” It was a record-extending 23rd Paralympic medal for Masters, the most decorated American Winter Paralympian. Also on the US team were Joshua Sweeney and Sydney Peterson. “I’m a very passionate, aggressive person, and I was just so excited. I was so happy for Jake, because I know he’s chasing that clean sweep in cross-country skiing,” she said. “To be able to do my part for him, it just felt so good that he is on his way to achieving his dreams.” Adicoff, who is vision impaired, had won his first individual Paralympic gold medal in the sprint classic race on Tuesday, becoming the first out gay American male athlete to win gold in the Winter Paralympics, according to Team USA. His second victory came in the interval start classic on Wednesday. “The relay is really fun because you actually get to watch your teammates,” he said. “That’s my favorite part of the day. And getting tackled by Oksana at the finish.” Adicoff had been celebrating his victories by taking a bow to his fans, families and friends. He took a bow while crossing the finish line after his second victory, and again at the podium ceremony. Fans have been wearing hats with Adicoff’s name. “I’m trying to think of something new every time,” he said. “You’ve got to keep it fresh. You got to keep new ones coming. If anyone has any ideas, let me know.” Adicoff will have a chance to celebrate again when he will compete Sunday in the 20-kilometer interval start free race, his final race...

The iShares Core S&P Total U.S. Stock Market ETF (ITOT 0.53%) offers broad-market exposure and more technology stocks, while the Vanguard Value ETF (VTV +0.14%) sticks to large-cap value names and higher dividend income.

Snapshot (cost & size) Metric VTV ITOT Issuer Vanguard iShares Expense ratio 0.03% 0.03% 1-yr return (as of March 14, 2026) 17.03% 20.18% Dividend yield 1.88% 1.10% Beta (5Y monthly) 0.76 1.04 AUM $239 billion $82 billion Both funds are extremely affordable, charging just 0.03% in annual expenses. However, VTV offers a higher dividend yield, which could appeal to income-focused investors. ITOT’s lower yield reflects its heavier allocation to growth-oriented sectors, such as technology.

Its portfolio leans heavily toward technology (making up nearly one-third of assets), and its top holdings include mega-cap industry leaders like Nvidia, Apple, and Microsoft. The fund’s broad reach provides instant diversification across sectors and market caps. VTV, by contrast, includes only 312 holdings and is built around large-cap value stocks. Its biggest weights are in financial services (23%), healthcare (15%), and industrials (14%), and its largest holdings are JPMorgan Chase, Berkshire Hathaway, and Exxon Mobil.

Iran and allied Iraqi militia groups denied attacking the Lanaz oil refinery in northern Iraq, the semi-official Tasnim news agency reported, citing an unnamed military official. The Lanaz refinery in the northern Iraqi city of Erbil suspended operations while a fire caused by a drone strike is extinguished, Reuters reported earlier on Saturday. The halt will last until the extent of the damage caused has been assessed, Reuters said in a report published in Arab News, citing provincial officials it didn’t identify.

The S&P 500 hasn't moved much this year after three years of double-digit gains. It's less than three months into 2026, so investors shouldn't worry at this point. However, there's going to be a year where things go south -- and it could be this one. In the meantime, any stock that's gaining this year is more or less beating the market. And there's at least one surprise -- Target (TGT +1.37%) -- which has been losing value for years and is 55% off its highs but is up 22% year to date. Is Target back in action? Or is this a short-term movement that's not going to last? A new CEO and roadmap New CEO Michael Fiddelke has only been in the top spot as of Feb. 1, but he's been in training since the announcement in August. He comes from the role of COO, so he's intimately familiar with the company. It's not hard for anyone who's been following Target, whether as an investor or a shopper, to see how Target has fallen short. It's been having trouble with inventory, and its merchandise hasn't been resonating with its core consumer. Sales have been dragging, while competitors like Walmart and Costco Wholesale continue to enjoy consistent growth. Fiddelke outlined a plan for Target to get back to its roots as a fun place to shop, with a distinctive flair and owned brands that offer style and value. It's also planning to open more new stores and lean into technology to expand its markets for next-day delivery, where it has always shone. In the fourth quarter, same-day delivery for members increased 30% year over year, and Target has consistently performed well in this area. I think he nailed it when he explained what Target's customers are looking for: Target is not an everything store. That's not what guests want from us.

Key Points Omada Health's digital healthcare platform helps patients between doctors visits, improving outcomes. A growing trove of data shows the company's success in improving its members' health -- especially those on GLP-1s. Omada grew sales by 53% in 2025, yet trades at only 3 times sales, making it a well-priced stock with multibagger potential. 10 stocks we like better than Omada Health › Founder-led digital healthcare upstart Omada Health (NASDAQ: OMDA) was launched to deliver between-visit guidance to patients with chronic conditions such as hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, or musculoskeletal problems. It went public in June 2025, and its shares have mostly struggled to get out of the gate -- which is fairly common among new initial public offerings. That said, the stock with an $800 million market cap offers multibagger prospects, with the potential to help make investors millionaires. Helping with the "in between" What goes on between your visits to the doctor has a bigger impact on health than the appointments themselves. Things like poor eating habits, high prescription costs, lack of exercise, misunderstanding of care requirements, imperfect prescription adherence, and lack of community are all pitfalls that Omada's digital healthcare platform can help patients avoid. The company's mobile app has surpassed 40,000 monthly global downloads, quickly becoming the No. 1 app in this healthcare niche. Omada's app and programs offer access to health coaches, therapists, specialists, medical devices, one-on-one video calls and coaching, and food and exercise tracking and planning.

Some 78 million Vietnamese will cast votes on Sunday for parliamentary delegates, setting the stage for the country’s new president and prime minister to be confirmed when the National Assembly meets next month. Red banners and propaganda campaigns have been on display across the country urging voter turnout in the one-party state as the government seeks to shore up support for its ambitious 10% growth agenda. The balloting for the roughly 500 National Assembly deputies, who will be announced some time before March 25, follows the twice-a-decade Communist Party Congress where the key policies were set. When the new parliament meets for the first time for its spring session — likely beginning April 6 — it will formally appoint officials to the top leadership positions. The session will confirm whether Communist Party chief To Lam has secured the presidency, giving him dual roles and consolidating his grip on power. Deputies will also vote on single candidates for prime minister and parliament chair. Vietnam’s To Lam and His Economic ‘New Model’ Cement Control Vietnam’s Politburo Signals Key Winners After Party Congress Vietnam’s Most Powerful Man Channels Xi With Eyes on Twin Prize The vote takes place as Vietnam grapples with rising fuel prices and the risk of shortages due to the Mideast war, which may also impact the country’s inflation and growth targets this year. The government, which has encouraged people to work from home and use public transport when possible, has dipped into its emergency fuel fund to stabilize gas prices but warned that if the conflict continues into April the “market may face more difficulties.”

Local governments joined in. Shenzhen’s Longgang district offered grants of up to 10 million yuan ($1.4 million) for “one-person companies,” or firms where the founder acts as sole shareholder. Wuxi, a city close to Shanghai, dangled up to 5 million yuan ($730,000) for OpenClaw-powered breakthroughs in robotics and industrial applications. Over the past several weeks, China’s biggest cloud providers—Alibaba Cloud, Tencent Cloud, ByteDance’s Volcano Engine, JD.com , and Baidu—have all embraced OpenClaw, or some spinoff of it. A flood of startups and big tech companies also released their own “Claw” frameworks : Tencent’s WorkBuddy, Minimax’s MaxClaw, MoonShot’s Kimi Claw, among others. An OpenClaw agent runs locally on a user’s machine and connects to tools like messaging apps, email, calendars and other systems, making it easy for users to ask an AI agent to do useful things for them, like regularly check their email and automatically reply to certain messages, or make reservations on their behalf. Steinberger, who has a long history as an entrepreneur, has since been hired by OpenAI . Steinberger released OpenClaw on GitHub last November, where it quickly caught on among AI developers and hobbyists. OpenClaw is what is called “an agentic harness.” It isn’t an AI model itself—a user has to pick a model from an AI company to serve as the agent’s brain. But OpenClaw consists of a set of instructions for how an AI agent should deconstruct a goal into a series of subtasks, protocols that allow a user to connect various software tools for the AI agent to use, and also a memory function that means the AI agent won’t forget what it has done so far. The OpenClaw craze also aligns with China’s embrace of open-source AI, a strategy that has helped build labs’ reputation among the developer community and slowly helped models work their way into global business. China’s users are now trying a “ raise a lobster ”, a phrase referring OpenClaw’s red lobster logo. It’s proved to be...

【有線新聞】美國總統特朗普呼籲所有經霍爾木茲海峽進口石油的國家、包括中國加入護航，聲言可能為了開心會再次攻擊伊朗石油出口樞紐哈爾克島。伊朗則首次攻擊波斯灣國家境內的非美國設施。 美國及以色列對伊朗的攻勢未見緩和，美國總統特朗普接受全國廣播公司訪問，稱目前無意停火，因條件未夠好。又指若伊朗最高領袖穆傑塔巴仍在世，就應作出明智決定投降。路透社報道，中東國家斡旋展開停火談判，但華府拒絕。美軍早前空襲伊朗石油出口樞紐哈爾克島，但保留了島上石油設施。特朗普強調美軍出於好玩，可能再次發動攻擊。 對於伊朗多次攻擊途經霍爾木茲海峽的運油輪，特朗普要求受影響各國加入護航，指部分國家已答應參與。他點名中國、法國、日本、南韓和英國有望派遣軍艦，稱美軍會大力協助。中國駐美大使館拒絕透露有沒有計劃行動，稱各方都有責任確保能源供應穩定暢通。據報英國考慮部署掃雷無人機。伊朗外長阿拉格齊接受美國傳媒訪問，強調霍爾木茲海峽只對敵國運油輪關閉，船隻因安全問題不願通過與伊朗無關。 伊朗官媒發布新的導彈發射片段，聲稱瞄準阿聯酋、巴林和科威特的美軍基地。軍方特別指控阿聯酋，容許美軍進駐港口、碼頭等，對哈爾克島發動攻勢。富查伊拉酋長國的石油設施起火冒煙，當局指是攔截無人機所致。阿聯酋否認德黑蘭當局的指控，強調國家有權自衛。

In a small Lebanese town, grief and fear follow the Michigan synagogue attack toggle caption JOSEPH EID/AFP via Getty Images MASHGHARA, Lebanon — As you arrive in this town in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley, one of the first things you notice is a poster of Iran's late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini, plastered across a concrete wall. Usually about 25,000 people live here, and many support the Iranian-backed militant group Hezbollah. Church bells ring out, but there is hardly anyone in the streets. Stores are shuttered. Most people have heeded evacuation orders as Israel continues its aerial assault in southern Lebanon. Recorded hymns echo from the church down the empty streets. This is the hometown of Ayman Mohamad Ghazali — the suspect who, on Thursday, attacked the Temple Israel synagogue in West Bloomfield, Mich., ramming his car into the building and opening fire. Sponsor Message The FBI says the 41-year-old naturalized U.S. citizen died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound after he was confronted by the synagogue's security officers. Ghazali had lived in the United States for more than a decade but kept strong ties with relatives back home. Four members of his family were killed in an Israeli airstrike just as the war involving Iran began. Ghazali was born and raised in Lebanon, along with his two brothers. He also had a niece and a nephew. All were killed in the airstrike. On March 5, as the sun set, they were gathered at the home of Ibrahim Ghazali — the attacker's younger brother — breaking fast for Ramadan. The house is now a pile of rubble. The roof is caved in. Water leaks from a severed pipe. Clothes are strewn on top. Children's toys are covered in dust. Fouad Qasem, Ghazali's maternal uncle, lives down the street. He says he helped pull the bodies of his nephews and the children from the rubble that night. "I held my own flesh and blood in my hands," Qasem says tearfully. Qasem, like many here, says he is heartbroken over the loss — and angry at Israel's relen...
