My top 10 things to watch Tuesday, May 5 1. Stocks are headed for a higher open, supported by falling oil prices. Strong corporate earnings and a fragile ceasefire agreement between the U.S. and Iran are in focus. Yesterday was a down day for the S & P 500 after the United Arab Emirates said it was attacked by Iran. 2. DuPont reported a top and bottom line beat. Healthcare, aerospace, and automotive were good. But water was hurt by disruptions in the Middle East, a major market for clean-water technology. Organic sales guide for the year were raised to 4%, helped by 1% of price increases. Good sign they're able to offset cost headwinds. Shares of the Club name are up 2% this morning. 3. Eaton also posted beats on earnings and revenue. But the Club stock are selling off roughly 4.5% due to conservative guidance and a miss in Electrical Americas. Nonetheless, we got accelerating sales and orders, and backlog growth. Hot money selling shares, but this doesn't look as bad as the price action. The post-earnings call will be crucial. It starts at 11 a.m. ET. We'll be listening. 4. Amazon wants to win in retail, delivery, health, logistics, semiconductors, and food. This Club name has a big agenda. Yesterday, Amazon said it was opening up its supply chain network to other companies. They already have big-name customers for the program too like Club name Procter & Gamble , as well as American Eagle and 3M . 5. Memory shortage stocks still have to go higher. It's difficult to imagine, but stocks do gallop to where they should be. Sandisk adds another 2% this morning after yesterday's nearly 6% gain. Year to date, Sandisk shares have soared more than 400%. Similar story for Western Digital, though that stock is up only 150%-plus in 2026. Like more than a double is lagging or something. Unreal. 6. Home Depot reinstated as a buy at Bank of America. The Club name is their preferred stock within the home improvement group. BofA thinks comp growth will outperform and traffic trend...

JHVEPhoto Lumentum ( LITE ), Ciena ( CIEN ), and Coherent ( COHR ) were in focus on Tuesday as investment firm Stifel upped its price targets on the trio ahead of their upcoming earnings reports. “Heading into F3Q26 prints for COHR and LITE this week and CIEN's F2Q26 print (early-June), we remain Buy-rated across all three optical networking names and are again raising estimates and target prices following the sub-sector run-up since OFC 2026 that, in our view, raised the bar on what the cycle can deliver,” the analysts wrote in a note to clients. “The combination of hyperscaler CapEx accelerating (consensus for Big-5 is ~$705.2bn in CY26, +67.3% y/y) into a multi-year build-out; extended order visibility (12-18 months across the cohort); and supply-side scarcity at the upstream InP/EML/CW laser layer continues to support the framework that the AI infrastructure cycle is real, durable, and compounding. We continue to believe the cohort is more likely to deliver beat-and-raise prints into mid-CY26 than not, with multi-year upside levers (Hyper-Rail and DCOM expansion at CIEN; OCS and scale-up CPO at LITE; the 3-vector Scale-Out/Scale-Up/Scale-Across framework at COHR) still to drive long-tailed accretion to revenue and margin contributions.” The firm has a Buy rating on all three and upped its price targets on Lumentum, Ciena, and Coherent to $1,100, $585, and $412 from $800, $430, and $275, respectively.

Welcome to Next Africa, a daily newsletter on where the continent stands now — and where it’s headed. Sign up here to have it delivered to your email. In today’s edition, we look at the state of Zambia-US ties and: Mozambique mulls converting $1.4 billion it owes China into yuan Sudan and Ethiopia traded accusations after a Khartoum drone attack How history hampers Europe’s wooing of Africa Trading Barbs What began as a landmark week for US-Zambia relations suddenly took a turn for the worse. KoBold Metals, a Silicon Valley company backed by American billionaires including Sam Altman and Bill Gates, held a ground-breaking ceremony for its new copper mine that will ultimately be the biggest in the southern African nation. Producing more than 300,000 tons of a metal crucial to powering data centers and electric vehicles, the Mingomba mine signifies the US planting an outsized flag in Zambia’s copper region, with President Hakainde Hichilema calling the project “tremendous.” The back-slapping was short-lived. A day later, outgoing US ambassador to Zambia, Michael Gonzales, gave a scathing farewell speech, accusing the government of “institutionalized and refined corruption” that was deterring investors from his country. He raised particular concern over Zambia’s dealings with Chinese investors — pointing to last year’s large-scale mine-waste disaster at a state-owned operation not far from KoBold’s project. Zambian Foreign Minister Mulambo Haimbe responded with an equally sharp rebuff, calling the ambassador’s corruption claims delusional. (The nation backslid on Transparency International’s corruption rankings last year, reversing two years of improvement.) What does the tiff mean for US-Zambia relations? That depends on whether it’s only with a disillusioned envoy who since left the country, or at a deeper level between the two governments. Much is at stake. For Zambia, that includes $2 billion in health aid . For the US, it affects relations with a country where it ...

Welcome to the Brussels Edition. I’m Suzanne Lynch , Bloomberg’s Brussels bureau chief, bringing you the latest from the EU each weekday. Make sure you’re signed up . Concerns around Anthropic’s new artificial intelligence model , Mythos, are reverberating in Europe. Economy Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis confirmed yesterday that the EU is in talks with the San Francisco-based tech firm about getting its companies and banks tested for vulnerabilities that Mythos might expose. Dombrovskis said Anthropic had briefed the EU executive on “cyber capabilities and risks” potentially linked to the as-yet unreleased tool. Ultimately, he wants European companies “to have possibilities for this cyber resiliency testing.” Dombrovskis was speaking as EU finance ministers gathered in Brussels for two days of meetings during which the impact of Mythos, which can identify flaws in IT systems, was on the agenda. During the gathering, ministers lobbied for European companies to get access, sources say, amid concerns that Europe’s financial system may be exposed to digital attacks if the technology falls into the wrong hands. “Frontier AI models are evolving rapidly and may soon present challenges of a potentially systemic nature,” Eurogroup President Kyriakos Pierrakakis told reporters, predicting that the issue would re-surface at future meetings of the region’s finance chiefs. Growing alarm in the EU about potential vulnerabilities in finance systems echoes similar worries expressed at last month’s IMF-World Bank meetings in Washington, where officials and companies made clear they wanted access to the Anthropic model. It appears the US is already a step ahead. The Commerce Department’s Center for AI Standards and Innovation said today that Google, Microsoft and xAI had agreed to join OpenAI and Anthropic in giving the government in Washington early access to their AI models. The Latest The IMF argued the EU should delay billions in repayments of joint Covid-era debt to help free ...

Courtesy Ford LONG BEACH, Calif. — As the global automotive industry retreats from all-electric vehicles after reporting billions of dollars in losses, Ford Motor continues to move forward with its next generation of EVs that CEO Jim Farley has described as industry-defining products. Ford's push comes despite a massive slowdown in EV adoption , $19.5 billion in electric vehicle restructuring charges for the company, the elimination of U.S. consumer incentives to buy EVs and the company's leading EV executive abruptly departing. "Agility is key," Ford's EV product leader, Alan Clarke, told CNBC during an interview at the company's new Electric Vehicle Development Center in Long Beach, California. "We've been able to pivot around all the different market conditions. … The EV industry has had massive headwinds, and so we've had to adjust." Ford's continued confidence, albeit it at lower and slower capital rates than it previously projected, comes from its "Universal Electric Vehicle," or UEV platform, which the company has developed from a clean-sheet design. Ford's goal for the UEV is to be profitable and cost-competitive with global EV leaders from China and Tesla . The UEV is expected to be critical to Ford transforming its Model e EV unit from billions of dollars in annual losses to breakeven by 2029. The company has said its future EVs will be profitable within a year of launching. The first planned product based on the UEV is a roughly $30,000 midsize pickup truck for the U.S. market next year, followed by a family of vehicles underpinned by the platform. "The midsize pickup truck, there won't be anything that competes with it, either in price or product form, and so I think it sort of stands alone in that sense," Clarke said.
