It will be the first time a US president has visited China in nearly a decade, with the last visit being Trump in 2017 Hello and welcome to our live coverage of US politics. Donald Trump is scheduled to travel to China this week to meet with Xi Jinping , China’s leader. It will be the first time a US president has visited China in nearly a decade, with the last visit being Trump in 2017. But given all that has happened so far in Trump’s second term – a trade war and then an actual war with Iran that has led to oil and gas prices skyrocketing worldwide – the mood of this visit is likely to be quite different.

Roman Tiraspolsky Intel ( INTC ) shares rose more than 5% in premarket trading on Monday after ZDNet Korea reported that it was working with Sk hynix (HXSC.L) to use Intel's Embedded Multi-die Interconnect Bridge technology. SK Hynix is performing R&D on 2.5D packaging technology with Intel, the report added, which cited sources close to the matter. SK hynix shares surged in South Korea following the report. Intel's EMIB technology allows for multiple semiconductor dies to be connected using the small silicon bridges. Conversely, Taiwan Semiconductor's ( TSM ) chip-on-a-wafer-substrate technology uses a larger silicon interposer. TSMC's CoWoS technology has been a bottleneck for advanced semiconductor nodes.

Robert Way/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Dating apps seem to me like a unique category of stocks. On the surface, they may seem like a social product like Facebook or Instagram ( META ). But Meta's platforms are ultimately advertising vehicles, and so they are trying to get people to be on the app for as long as possible, hence the emergence of "algorithms" and endless social media feeds. But dating apps aren't necessarily like this. For these businesses, advertising is at best a secondary revenue stream; the real money is made from selling premium features. So at the core of it, I think dating apps are more like marketplaces. Similar to how a platform like LendingTree ( TREE ) might connect people who want to buy financial products to the parties looking to sell them, dating apps are connecting people who are looking for relationships, or some social connection. People use dating apps for a specific purpose. Grindr ( GRND ) is one of the oldest and most well-known of the dating apps, but unlike the big players in Match Group ( MTCH ) and Bumble ( BMBL ), they cater to a specific demographic: gay men. Dating apps have mostly fallen out of favor as stocks; over the past five years, Match and Bumble are down 76% and 92%, respectively. Grindr has only been public since November 2022, when it went public via SPAC, and while it is above its IPO price, it has fallen 37% in the past year. However, I think this rerating for dating app stocks has brought them into value territory. They may not be huge growth engines like they were priced for at their peaks, but these businesses throw off a lot of cash, and I think they have more defendable positions than the market gives them credit for. Grindr in particular has shown a lot of pricing power in addition to growing its user base. In this article, I'm initiating my coverage of Grindr with a soft Buy rating. Although I like Match Group better at current valuations, Grindr has shown strong growth for multiple years now and ha...

Dragon Claws/iStock via Getty Images Co-authored with Hidden Opportunities Earnings season is conventionally chaotic and emotional. The financial markets experience volatility spikes, and headlines shift rapidly. Trade volumes can be very high, and prices can move rapidly depending on certain financial numbers in the earnings report, management's guidance, or analyst ratings. But beneath all that action and excitement, there's a quieter way to invest, with steady, growing income. While prices swing and opinions change, businesses that consistently generate massive amounts of cash and reward shareholders continue doing exactly that, largely unaffected by the day-to-day drama. This is our core focus at High Dividend Opportunities . Today, we will discuss two investment-grade names that didn't just navigate earnings season but decisively outperformed expectations and have an improved outlook for 2026 while continuing to deliver ~6% yields. Let's dive in! Pick #1: VZ - Yield 6.0% Verizon Communications ( VZ ) is the largest telecom company in the world by revenue. The company reported its Q1 2026 earnings on April 27th, delivering $1.28/share in adjusted EPS, reflecting a 7.6% YoY increase. This marks the company's highest adj. EPS growth in over four years. The company also disclosed 55,000 postpaid phone net adds (vs. negative 289K in Q1 2024) during a typically weaker Q1, marking the first time in 13 years that the company has delivered positive postpaid phone adds in the first quarter. For the full year 2026, management expects postpaid phone net adds to be in the upper half of the guidance range of 750,000 to 1 million. CEO Dan Schulman emphasized the company's strategy in strongly shifting towards recurring service revenues and deliberately away from low-margin promotional activity. There are early indications of positive momentum in this approach, as Q1 revenues grew 2.9% YoY to $34.4 billion, while the company's cost of customer acquisition and retention dropped...

Retail traders largely sat out a record-setting advance in chip stocks in April. Now they’re diving in just as worries mount that the group’s rally may be losing steam. Individual investors boosted purchases of technology shares to the highest level in a year last week, according to positioning data from JPMorgan Chase & Co. , with companies like memory chipmakers that benefit from all things artificial intelligence drawing the most interest. Hardware companies posted their second-largest inflow on record. While nothing prohibits the group from rallying further, a 60% leap in the Philadelphia Stock Exchange Semiconductor Index , or SOX, over the past six weeks made just about every valuation metric look stretched. For the mom-and-pop investors who waited until May to pile into the sector, it all presents the risk of a sudden shift in momentum that could saddle them with losses. “This earnings season validates the AI infrastructure trade as semis and memory chips delivered. Looking ahead, the market is increasingly priced for perfection,” said Dave Mazza , chief executive officer at Roundhill Financial Inc. “Retail re-engagement isn’t a bearish signal on its own, but it adds fuel to a move that’s come a long way and is starting to look parabolic.” The return of retail buyers marks a shift from earlier this spring, when many stayed on the sidelines during the market’s rebound after worries around the war in Iran pushed the S&P 500 Index to the cusp of a technical correction. Now, with peace talks between the US and Iran ongoing, the cohort is once again crowding into semiconductor and hardware names like Sandisk Corp. , Micron Technology Inc. , and Intel Corp . Furious momentum in the sector has driven the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 Index up 25% in six weeks. “Semis are getting silly and are now in some cases as or more extreme than 1999,” Chris Verrone , head of technical and macro strategy at Strategas Securities LLC, said in a note to clients. “Parabolic charts can take...
