Hasbro (HAS) came out with quarterly earnings of $1.47 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.12 per share. This compares to earnings of $1.04 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items. This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +31.25%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this toy maker would post earnings of $0.99 per share when it actually produced earnings of $1.51, delivering a surprise of +52.53%. Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates four times. Hasbro, which belongs to the Zacks Toys - Games - Hobbies industry, posted revenues of $1 billion for the quarter ended March 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 1.08%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $887.1 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates four times over the last four quarters. The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call. Hasbro shares have added about 18.5% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 7.4%. What's Next for Hasbro? While Hasbro has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock? There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately. Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions. Ahead of this earnings release, th...

tum3123/iStock via Getty Images By Patrick O'Connell, CFA | Sammy Suzuki, CFA | Christian DiClementi | Teresa Keane The energy transition is powering EM, but not all countries and companies will benefit equally. Emerging markets (EM) are using low-cost renewables to cut fuel imports, stabilize power costs and improve energy security—positioning EM as the growth engine of the energy transition. Countries and companies that leverage their dominance in critical minerals and green technology could pull ahead, creating dispersion in potential outcomes for investors. After more than a decade of stagnation, demand for electricity is surging globally on the strength of artificial intelligence and its associated infrastructure buildout . Across many regions, per capita electricity consumption is expected to reach record highs by 2030. And with their population growth rates exceeding those of the developed world, emerging economies are a primary source of increased electricity demand. Energy production is also evolving, with renewables making up a growing share of global capacity. Across the developing world, renewable energy is expected to comprise the majority of power capacity additions in the coming decades, with solar and wind leading the way. In our view, this isn’t a fleeting trend; it’s a structural change driven by population growth, urbanization and expanding electrification needs. For EM, Renewables Enable Economic Growth and Energy Security Thanks to supportive grids and regulatory policies, deployment of renewables is expanding in EM. Moreover, renewable power is cheaper to build and operate in most major EM than in developed markets, supporting cost competitiveness and industrial strength ( Display ) Lower Costs Are Driving Renewable Expansion in Emerging Markets Current analysis does not guarantee future results.

Key Points D-Wave Quantum grew revenue by 179% last year and just hit a quarterly bookings record. However, it still isn't making much money, especially compared to rival IonQ. 10 stocks we like better than D-Wave Quantum › Quantum computing stocks have soared in recent years, and D-Wave Quantum (NYSE: QBTS) is one of the most successful. While volatile, the company's share price is up 3,310% over the last three years (as of May 18). Early D-Wave investors are sitting on incredible returns, but with a $7 billion market cap and just $24.6 million in revenue last year, this company now trades at an extremely high valuation. Is there still a case for investing, or is it too late? 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 » The bull case: Record growth and a high-profile acquisition D-Wave may still have light sales numbers given its market cap, but to its credit, those numbers have been growing. Its $24.6 million in revenue for fiscal 2025 was a 179% year-over-year increase. Revenue for the first quarter of 2026 was down 81% year over year to $2.9 million. That might seem worrisome, but quantum computing companies tend to have lumpy sales, so you can't learn too much from a single quarter. More important than the top line was D-Wave's bookings for the quarter, which hit a record of $33.4 million. Those bookings, which is how D-Wave refers to future customer orders, exceeded the company's total bookings in fiscal 2024 and 2025 combined. D-Wave management also landed a few significant deals in the first quarter. It acquired Quantum Circuits Inc. for $550 million in a merger that makes D-Wave the only dual-platform quantum company -- one that has annealing and gate-model quantum computers. In addition, D-Wave and two defense companies, Davidson Technologies and Anduril, announced a collaboration. Th...

Check out the companies making the biggest moves premarket: Lowe's — Shares slipped almost 2% after despite the company slightly beating estimates for earnings and revenue in its first-quarter financial report. While the company reaffirmed its full-year guidance, it acknowledged a challenging macro housing market backdrop. Toll Brothers — The homebuilder added 3% after reporting fiscal second-quarter earnings of $2.72 per share, beating the $2.57 analysts polled by LSEG had expected. Toll Brothers' $2.51 billion revenue also came in above the forecast $2.42 billion. Target — The retailer climbed nearly 2% after it reported a beat on first-quarter numbers and hiked its full-year sales outlook. The company earned $1.71 per share on revenue of $25.44 billion. Analysts expected a profit of $1.46 per share on revenue of $24.64 billion, per LSEG. Cava — Shares popped almost 7% after the Mediterranean fast-casual chain hiked its adjusted EBITDA guidance for the full year to between $181 million to $191 million, versus its prior outlook of $176 million to $184 million. The company also reported first-quarter earnings of 20 cents per share on $438 million in revenue, beating the earnings of 18 cents and revenue of $411 million analysts had expected, per LSEG. Analog Devices — The semiconductor company fell 1.5% despite reporting better-than-expected adjusted earnings of $3.09 per share in its fiscal second quarter. Analysts polled by FactSet estimated earnings of $2.88 per share. Analog Devices also delivered revenue above estimates too. Chipmakers — After a breather following a rapid rally higher, semiconductor stocks rebounded with the iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) up more than 2%. Marvell Technology was up more than 5%, while Intel rose more than 4%. Micron Technology and Qualcomm were both higher by more than 3%. Nvidia — Joining the chip rally was Nvidia, which was up more than 1.5%. The world's most valuable company is set to report earnings after the bell Wednesday...

IherPhoto/iStock via Getty Images Over the last sixty days, Harmony Gold ( HMY ) has made four announcements that, when I was reading them separately, I was interpreting as corporate noise, until after today’s results on May 18 , once I put them together, I understood that the company is different from what it currently trades as. On April 28, a record dividend of $204M was paid, equivalent to $0.32 per share, under a new capital allocation policy that raises the base payout to 30% of FCF, with variable upside of up to an additional 20%. After the news, MSCI upgraded its ESG rating from BB to A , which opened the ADR to passive funds that were previously excluded. Then we move to May 15, when the Queensland Department of Environment approved Eva Copper’s Environmental Authority Major Amendment, removing the last regulatory piece for the project. And today’s announcement, where the FY26 9M update confirms that the group closed the quarter with net cash of $78M, and in just one quarter reversed the net debt position that stood at $335M as of December 31. However, its share price has been trading in a sideways range since practically April 2025, with a -18% YTD performance, while its peers such as Barrick ( ABX:CA ), AngloGold( AU ) and Kinross( KGC ) are flat or positive over the same period, in a consensus that expects upside of +46% to +66% according to Morgan Stanley ( MS ) or HSBC ( HSBC ). Data by YCharts Why does consensus assign this potential? For me, it is because they identify that the model is transitioning from a profile dominated by South African underground gold, with Mponeng, which is the deepest mine in the world, toward a hybrid model where copper also has the same relevance. So what I expect over the next 12 or 24 months is that the discount at which, for me, HMY trades will close once we have the full fiscal-year annual results in August, and the company confirms guidance compliance, with Eva advancing on schedule, and with market recognition assign...

NVDA’s official guide sits at $78 billion against Street consensus of $78.6 billion. The buyside survey mean sits at $80.97 billion. NVIDIA earnings buyside / Street consensus Source: JPM pic.twitter.com/miBcHEhLwW — Jukan (@jukan05) May 20, 2026 Forward expectations diverge even more. Buyside desks pencil in $89.71 billion for the July quarter and $9.42 in full-year FY27 EPS. Sell-side consensus for the next guide sits closer to $85 to $87 billion. The setup matters because Nvidia shares have already rallied. NVDA peaked near $235 last week before pulling back to current levels. Options markets are pricing an 8 to 10% move on the print. Cramer Warns of Familiar Sell-the-News Pattern According to Jim Cramer, the post-earnings playbook for NVDA has become predictable. He warned of an initial spike before a sharp reversal. “The Nvidia pattern we are all now used to: an initial fly-up, lasting 10-12 minutes, then a relentless hammering that takes the stock to where it breaks the chart. Do not be fooled by the first move…” the Mad Money host wrote in a post. His warning aligns with recent earnings reactions. Even when NVDA beats consensus, the stock has often given back gains as positioning unwinds. Bloomberg framed the print as a potential rally trigger but flagged the risks. In the same tone, Coin Bureau’s Nic Pucrin said the day carries equal weight from the April Fed minutes due earlier in t...

2026年波士顿马拉松前夕，耐克的橱窗广告把自己送上了舆论的火线。那句“Runners welcome. Walkers tolerated”——欢迎跑者，容忍步行者——以红底大字占据着纽伯里街门店的整个橱窗，距离波士顿马拉松终点线仅一个街区。 评论家们将其贴上"配速羞辱"、排他性、甚至是对受伤选手、适应性运动员和首次参赛者的轻蔑。耐克迅速做出回应，撤下了标识，并承认自己"做得不妥"。 耐克的危机公关话术不算新鲜，真正耐人寻味的是：这个曾以“冒犯式营销”屡战屡胜的体育巨头，这一次，为什么踢到了铁板？ 从“利器”到“暗器”：耐克的冒犯美学为何失灵 耐克的品牌基因里刻着“冲突”二字。从“Just Do It”这句充满战斗感的口号，到上世纪80年代聘用“坏小子”约翰·麦肯罗和查尔斯·巴克利——他们以傲慢、暴躁、不守规则的公众形象代言耐克——这家公司向来不回避站队、划线，甚至主动挑衅主流社会情绪。真正的巅峰时刻是2018年的科林·卡佩尼克广告。那位因国歌抗议而遭NFL封杀的争议四分卫，配以“Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.”的文案，在美国 政治极化的舆论场中炸开了锅。抵制者们焚烧耐克鞋，股价一度跳水。但仅仅数天后，耐克在线销售额增长31%，品牌市值反而创下历史新高。 营销学教授阿梅里克斯·里德对此有一句精辟总结：如果你足够清晰地代表某件事，你就不可避免地站在了另一件事的对立面。这种策略称为“中心化机制”——通过划定“我们”与“他们”的边界，来凝聚核心人群的身份认同。按照这一逻辑，“欢迎跑者，容忍步行者”并不令人意外。波士顿马拉松的门槛是全世界最严苛之一：约90%的参赛者须凭硬核成绩入围，男性资格标准高达2小时55分。在终点线旁的门店，向那些“破三”人群喊出“这是我们的主场”，似乎是耐克一以贯之的“冒犯美学”的又一次精准运用。 但现实迅速给出了否定的答案。首先，“容忍”一词自带权力关系——它暗示说话者处于高位，而接受者是低位。一位因脊髓囊肿而不得不采用跑走结合策略的波士顿马拉松选手罗宾·米肖，在Instagram上反讽道：“谢谢你‘容忍’我。”她拥有多次达标参赛的记录，却被一句广告文案置于“二等参与者”的屈辱位置。大量使用跑走结合策略的跑者也愤怒质问：难道我因为步行休息一下，就成了被“...

Bristol-Myers Squibb ( BMY ) is rolling out Anthropic ’s ( ANTHRO ) flagship Claude AI platform to more than 30,000 employees, expanding its use of artificial intelligence and AI agents across research, clinical development, and corporate operations. The collaboration signals a meaningful evolution in how BMS deploys AI, moving beyond conversational tools that have defined the first wave of enterprise adoption, toward agentic capabilities built into the day-to-day workflows and systems that underpin its science and global operations. In addition, Bristol-Myers said it is using Claude Code, Anthropic’s coding tool, to speed up its software and AI development. The company also said it is evaluating the use of Claude AI agents in areas including research, drug development, and commercial and medical affairs. "By giving employees access to Claude’s agentic capabilities — connected to thousands of data sources across the company — BMS is creating a single intelligence layer that can generate a clinical study report from underlying trial data, surface the right scientific context from decades of internal research, or trace the root cause of a manufacturing deviation in real time,” said Eric Kauderer-Abrams , Head of Life Sciences, Anthropic. Anthropic's rival OpenAI ( OPENAI ) has also struck partnerships with key players in the sector. It announced an agreement with biotech giant Moderna ( MRNA ) to automate business processes in 2024 and landed a deal with Wegovy maker Novo Nordisk ( NVO ) to speed up drug discovery earlier this year.

Keir Starmer has announced an extension to the temporary 5p cut in fuel duty, as widely expected, telling the Commons it was a necessary response to cost-of-living pressures. Before a wider package of measures due to be announced by Rachel Reeves, the chancellor, on Thursday, Starmer used prime minister’s questions to announce the extended freeze and a vehicle tax break for the haulage industry. At the last budget, Reeves announced she would freeze fuel duty for nine months but that she would end a temporary 5p cut, first announced by Rishi Sunak in 2022 after Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, beginning in September. Asked by the Labour MP Kirsteen Sullivan about whether the government could do more to help with cost-of-living pressures, Starmer replied: “There is more that we can do, and I can announce today that we are giving our hauliers a 12-month vehicle tax holiday, helping to keep prices down, and we are backing drivers by extending the freeze in fuel duty for the rest of the year. “This is possible because of the decisions taken by the chancellor, making us the fastest-growing economy in the G7. She will set out further action tomorrow.” Referring to increased fuel prices caused by the US-Israeli attack on Iran, Starmer added: “This is not our war, but while the parties opposite wanted to jump into it, Labour will always protect working people.” Responding for the Conservatives, Kemi Badenoch sought to claim credit for the decision, saying it was a U-turn caused by her pressure. Starmer rejected this, saying it was only because of what had happened with Iran, adding: “I know the leader of the opposition likes to claim responsibility for things that have got literally nothing to do with her. In her mind, she won Eurovision on Saturday and scored the winning goal in the FA Cup final.” A Treasury announcement, released as Starmer spoke, said that by the end of 2026 the freeze of fuel duty would have saved the average driver £120 over two years, while the...
