NuScale Power (NYSE: SMR) is developing a small light-water reactor that could help us confront one of the greatest challenges of our time: how to transition to carbon-free energy. Not only that, but NuScale's small modular reactor (SMR) could help utilities and industrial customers supply power to one of the greatest inventions of our era: artificial intelligence (AI). Indeed, the bullish case for NuScale is fairly simple. Many energy analysts predict that SMRs will become one of the most important energy sources over the next three decades, and NuScale is currently the only U.S. company with an SMR design approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

Russia Outraged At Its Ally Armenia For Hosting Zelensky: 'Whose Side Of History Are You On?' Russia is seething after its Caucasus regional ally Armenia decided to host Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for a European summit earlier this week . Moscow is further warning against Yerevan pursuing closer relations with the European Union as well. The Kremlin slammed Zelensky being hosted there, right in Russia's own backward, as "incomprehensible" . Source: Perry-Castañeda Library "Russian society, with deep indignation and bewilderment, not only saw but remembered that Armenia, which we are used to considering a friendly, brotherly country, served as a platform. For whom? For a terrorist," Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said Thursday. "The current, illegitimate Kyiv regime has been issuing threats to strike Moscow during the annual parade on May 9 , a day sacred to our peoples... And no one in Armenia’s current leadership rebuked Zelensky. So whose side of history are you on? ” she posed. "Such a course by the Armenian authorities will sooner or later lead to Yerevan’s irreversible involvement in Brussels’ anti-Russian line, with all the ensuing political and economic consequences for Armenia," she said. However, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has responded to the pressure, stating: “Back in 2022-2023 I already stated that, on the issue of Ukraine, we are not an ally of Russia.” He is also reportedly refusing to attend Moscow’s Victory Day parade on Saturday, saying he needs to stay in his country in order to prepare for parliamentary elections scheduled for June 7. Armenia has long been a key member of the regional Russian-led bloc, the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO). However, Armenia froze its participation since 2024, outraged over Russia's failure to protect ethnic Armenians during Azerbaijan’s 2023 takeover of Nagorno-Karabakh . Russia since played a 'peacekeeping' role with some limited troop deployments, however, Arm...

According to a recent SEC filing , Keystone Financial Services established a new position in the iShares Defense Industrials Active ETF (NASDAQ:IDEF) , purchasing 235,248 shares during the first quarter of 2026. Based on quarterly average pricing, the estimated transaction value was approximately $8.2 million. The iShares Defense Industrials Active ETF is an actively managed fund that gives investors focused, curated exposure to companies operating in the defense and industrial sectors. Unlike passive index funds, IDEF's managers make active decisions about which securities to hold -- identifying opportunities and managing risk across two industries that sit at the intersection of national security and economic infrastructure. Defense spending has been a notable bright spot in an otherwise uncertain market environment, with governments around the world -- including the U.S. -- committing to higher military budgets in response to ongoing geopolitical tensions. That tailwind has helped defense-oriented funds like IDEF gain traction with investors since its launch less than a year ago. Continue reading
