New Spurs head coach supported Greenwood at Marseille Greenwood had charges including attempted rape dropped in 2023 The Tottenham Hotspur Supporters’ Trust has strongly criticised the appointment of Roberto De Zerbi as the club’s head coach, expressing “serious and far-reaching concerns” over his past support for Mason Greenwood. In a statement released soon after De Zerbi signed a five-year contract on Tuesday, the Trust said his arrival placed a “heavy strain” on unity at a time when Spurs are battling against relegation from the Premier League. It also called on Spurs and the Italian to publicly reassert their “commitment to the values that fans hold dear – chief among them equality, respect, and integrity”. Continue reading...

Tim Seymour, founder and CIO at Seymour Asset Management, believes the recent equity rally represents a legitimate market response to oversold conditions and attractive valuations heading into earnings season. With the S&P 500 ( SP500 ) now trading at approximately 19x forward earnings—down from 22x—Seymour sees genuine opportunity for investors willing to look past short-term volatility. The S&P 500 ( SP500 ) is up 2.6% on Tuesday, while the Nasdaq Composite ( COMP:IND ) is up 3.6%, and the Dow ( DJI ) is up 2.3%. “There’s an opportunity to look at the value construct,” Seymour said in an interview with CNBC, noting that the market’s pullback from Liberation Day lows around 18x forward earnings has created favorable entry points. He added that the VIX’s ( VIX ) recent movement has been “authoritative,” a significant shift from earlier rallies that weren’t confirmed by the volatility index. For investors looking to put capital to work domestically, Seymour advocates a selective approach rather than broad market exposure. He favors integrated oil ( USO ), ( UCO ), ( DBO ) and energy stocks ( XLE ), ( AMLP ), ( VDE ) even if crude prices ( CO1:COM ) retreat, while pointing to utilities ( XLU ), ( VPU ), ( FUTY ) as both defensive plays and beneficiaries of data center demand. Healthcare ( XLV ), ( VHT ), ( IHI ), ( IXJ ), he noted, has underperformed due to contagion from software sector ( IGV ), ( IGPT ), ( XSW ) weakness and presents an opportunity for patient investors. Beyond U.S. borders, Seymour sees a secular shift underway that could benefit international markets for years to come. He argued that Europe ( VGK ), ( IEV ), ( IEUR ) currently offers a more favorable deregulation environment than the U.S. and is supported by deficit spending initiatives. “A lot of the oxygen in the room was choked out” by the Mag Seven ( MAGS ) over the past five years, Seymour explained, leaving considerably more growth potential in international equities. The case for internatio...

Earnings Call Insights: Charlotte's Web Holdings (CWEB:CA) Q4 2025 Management View CEO William Morachnick framed the quarter around a balance-sheet reset and Medicare channel entry: "this is not business as usual for Charlotte's Web" and said the company had "several key announcements that have tremendous positive impact on our business." CEO Morachnick detailed the British American Tobacco transaction: "the conversion of BAT's outstanding $55 million convertible debenture, plus approximately $10 million in accrued interest" at "a conversion price of CAD 0.94 per share," plus "a new equity investment of $10 million through a private placement," adding that "BAT's combined equity commitment under this transaction is approximately $75 million" and that BAT "will hold approximately 40% of the company on a non-diluted basis." CEO Morachnick positioned the CMMI Medicare pilot as a near-term operating catalyst, stating: "Participants in the ACO REACH Model and the Enhancing Oncology Model are anticipated to begin offering the Substance Access BEI beginning April 1, which is tomorrow" and emphasizing it as "an established health care integration pathway" with "CMS authorization, physician oversight... and structured outcomes data collection." CFO Erika Lind tied results to restructuring and cost discipline: "our 2025 financial results reflects 2 years of disciplined execution to stabilize the business return to growth and fundamentally restructure our cost base to drive to profitability." CEO Morachnick highlighted manufacturing compliance for healthcare-channel credibility: "this month Charlotte's Web completed its annual NSF dietary supplement good manufacturing practices audit and received zero findings." Outlook Management did not provide quantitative revenue or EPS guidance; CEO Morachnick described the CMMI pilot ramp as gradual: "I don't foresee massive revenue opportunity for, let's say, the balance of this year" and said adoption is expected to be "a gradual build...

roman_slavik/iStock Editorial via Getty Images U.S. equities rallied sharply on Tuesday, led by a broad-based surge in technology shares as investor sentiment improved on rising expectations that tensions surrounding a potential Iran conflict could ease. The Nasdaq Composite ( COMP:IND ) advanced 3.5% in afternoon trading, reflecting renewed risk appetite and strong participation across the market. Market breadth underscored the strength of the move, with 82 of the Nasdaq 100’s ( NDX ) constituents trading higher on the session. The widespread gains suggest the rally was not concentrated in a small group of mega-cap names, but instead driven by broad investor demand across sectors. Top-performing stocks within the Nasdaq 100 contributed meaningfully to the advance, highlighting robust momentum and reinforcing confidence that the rebound is being supported by a diverse set of companies. Outlined below are the Nasdaq-100’s ( NDX ) 10 best-performing stocks in Tuesday’s trading session.

imagedepotpro/iStock via Getty Images The JPMorgan High Yield Municipal ETF ( JMHI ) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund designed to provide investors with exposure to federally tax-exempt, high-yield municipal bonds. JMHI can be best utilized in taxable accounts by income investors that fall within a higher tax bracket who are seeking tax-efficient income. About JPMorgan High Yield Municipal ETF JMHI was initially launched by JP Morgan as an open-end mutual fund on September 17, 2007, before transitioning to an ETF on the NYSE Arca Exchange on July 14, 2023. JMHI has a relatively small asset base with $264.61mm in net assets, with an average of $1.67mm in share value changing hands on a daily basis. JMHI has a relatively low expense ratio of 35 bps, aligned with peer municipal bond strategies. JMHI paid out a monthly distribution at an annualized rate of $2.30/share over the last twelve months, yielding 4.65%. Compared to peer ETF strategies, JMHI’s dividend distribution is at the upper end in terms of yield, potentially presenting greater relative value to investors. Seeking Alpha JMHI is broadly diversified across 201 issuances, though it is overshadowed by larger portfolio strategies offered by VanEck ( HYD ) or State Street ( HYMB ), which have 1,914 and 1,857 holdings, respectively. Investors must weigh the risks associated with investing in high-yield munis, as greater diversification may limit the performance risk associated with the default of a single issuance. JMHI had a portfolio turnover rate of 76% over the last twelve months, with some features suggesting that the fund is managing credit risk. The fund has a duration of 8.03 years, making the fund moderately sensitive to changes in the key interest rate set by the Federal Reserve. Duration risk is, in short, the pricing risk associated with changes to the key rate, meaning that a 1% increase or decrease in the key rate may result in an 8.03% decrease or increase in the price of the bonds held ...

Jae Young Ju/iStock via Getty Images Korea Electric Power ( KEP ) up 3% on Tuesday even after the stock was downgraded to Neutral from Buy at Bank of America, which cited the company's increasing cost burden due to recent price hikes for oil and liquefied natural gas alongside rising geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and Iran. While increasing the utilization of coal and nuclear power is being discussed as an alternative, structural power grid bottlenecks likely will limit the immediate impact of such a shift, and pass-through of these escalating costs into retail electricity tariffs seems to be constrained in the near term, dampening expectations for Kepco's ( KEP ) H2 margins, BofA's Taekyoung Ha said. Kepco ( KEP ) is highly levered to global commodity hikes, Ha noted, with ~40% of operating expenses exposed to oil and LNG prices via power purchase costs on IPPs and fuel costs on generating companies; "while SMP typically reflects long-term LNG contracts tracking oil prices with a ~six-month lag, the ongoing LNG supply disruption in the Middle East is likely to push up SMP further with higher spot LNG exposure," the analyst said. While the government's long-term plan to raise nuclear power generation remains accretive, Ha said he sees limited room to immediately offset the impact of energy price hikes given NPP's maintenance schedule and grid bottlenecks.

Every weekday, the CNBC Investing Club with Jim Cramer releases the Homestretch — an actionable afternoon update, just in time for the last hour of trading on Wall Street. The market rally gained momentum on Tuesday with signs of potential de-escalation in the Iran conflict. The S & P 500 was up more than 2%, jumping on unconfirmed reports that Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian was open to ending the war on the condition of certain guarantees. We're hesitant to call this an all-clear signal, but it takes two sides to end a war. Between this news and a late Monday report from The Wall Street Journal that President Donald Trump is willing to end the war without reopening the Strait of Hormuz, the market is responding to the first sign of mutual interest in de-escalation. U.S. oil benchmark WTI crude dropped about 1% Tuesday, though it was still north of $100 a barrel. Eli Lilly made a big splash on the M & A front , announcing Tuesday that it was buying Centessa Pharmaceuticals in a deal that could be worth up to $7.8 billion. Centessa Pharmaceuticals is a clinical-stage company working on new medicines for the treatment of excessive daytime sleepiness, like narcolepsy. The company's key asset is cleminorexton (formerly known as ORX750), which seeks to mimic a molecule in the brain, known as orexin, that helps regulate wakefulness. It's shown promising results in Phase 2a clinical studies across type 1 and type 2 narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia, which is another form of excessive daytime sleepiness. Analysts at Wolfe Research are currently forecasting more than $3 billion in peak sales for cleminorexton if it hits on those three targeted indications. Several analysts are coming out positive on the deal, noting it broadens Lilly's presence in neuroscience, an area of growing focus beyond obesity and diabetes. Leave it to Lilly to try to track the code on difficult conditions like these sleep disorders. In an interview with our CNBC colleague Angelica Peebles la...
