Uber Technologies (UBER) is a $156 billion company today. Yesterday, Uber announced a massive, multi-year strategic partnership with Rivian to deploy up to 50,000 fully autonomous robotaxis. Uber is committing to invest up to $1.25 billion into Rivian through 2031, starting with an initial $300 million injection. The remaining capital is tied to Rivian hitting specific autonomous performance milestones. Uber and its fleet partners will initially purchase 10,000 fully autonomous Rivian R2 SUVs, with the option to buy up to 40,000 more starting in 2030. Commercial deployments are scheduled to begin in San Francisco and Miami in 2028, with the goal of expanding to 25 cities across North America and Europe by 2031. Ride Sharing Can Uber’s (UBER) Booking Momentum Offset Profitability Pressure? Goldman Stays Constructive The most critical part of this deal for Uber is exclusivity. These tens of thousands of Rivian robotaxis will be available exclusively on the Uber platform. By pouring capital into Rivian (and making similar deals with players like Zoox), Uber is ensuring that even if Tesla (TSLA) and Alphabet Inc's (GOOGL) Waymo try to cut them out, Uber will still have an enormous, dedicated fleet of autonomous vehicles to offer its massive global user base. Alphabet’s Waymo is currently the undisputed market leader in commercial robotaxis. As of early 2026, they are operating fully driverless rides in 10 major U.S. cities (including San Francisco, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Dallas, and Orlando). They are currently delivering around 400,000 paid rides per week and targeting 1 million weekly rides by the end of the year. While they do partner with Uber in some markets like Austin and Atlanta, they also aggregate massive demand through their own proprietary Waymo One app. Tesla has officially launched its dedicated Robotaxi app and is operating a ride-hailing fleet using modified Model Ys running on its vision-based Full Self-Driving (FSD) software. They are currently running ...

据媒体周五（3月20日）援引知情人士消息报道， 亚马逊 正在开发一款整合人工智能能力并能与公司语音助手Alexa同步的智能手机。 该项目内部代号为“Transformer”，由亚马逊设备与服务部门负责研发，定位为一款高度个性化的移动设备。该手机的核心在于通过AI技术简化用户操作，可能无需传统应用商店即可使用功能，旨在让用户更便捷地使用亚马逊购物、Prime Video和Grubhub等服务。 知情人士称，Alexa将是该设备的核心功能，但不一定是主要的操作系统。这是亚马逊创始人杰夫·贝索斯长期愿景的一部分，即打造类似《星际迷航》中“无处不在的语音助手”的设备。 该项目由亚马逊设备部门新成立的“ZeroOne”创新团队负责，由前 微软 高管J Allard领导。研发团队正在评估两种产品路线：一种是传统形态的智能手机，另一种是受Light Phone启发的极简功能机，可作为用户第二部备用设备。 亚马逊曾在2014年推出Fire Phone，但由于缺乏主流应用且3D功能耗电严重，该产品在14个月后即被取消，导致1.7亿美元的库存减值。此次重返智能手机市场，亚马逊面临 苹果 和三星合计约40%的全球市场份额，以及2026年全球智能手机出货量预计下滑13%的市场环境。 目前，该项目的定价、资金投入及发布时间表均未敲定，知情人士表示若公司战略调整或财务压力增加，该项目仍可能被搁置。亚马逊发言人拒绝对此置评。 责任编辑：张俊 SF065

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent looks on as he speaks to the media after two days of meetings with a Chinese delegation, in Paris, France March 16, 2026. Abdul Saboor | Reuters The Trump administration announced on Thursday that it will task the U.S. Department of the Treasury with collecting on defaulted student loans . Currently, the U.S. Department of Education oversees the country's nearly $1.7 trillion federal education debt portfolio, held by roughly 42 million borrowers. The joint announcement from the two agencies said that the Treasury Department would take on more duties related to federal student debt over time, eventually providing "operational support" on current loans. President Donald Trump has repeatedly said he intends to dismantle the Education Department and to transfer education authority to the states . In a statement, U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon said the partnership with Treasury is a "historic step toward breaking up the Federal education bureaucracy."

RWE AG Chief Executive Officer Markus Krebber predicts a weak trading result because the German utility was short going into the biggest rally in natural gas for four years. The company’s trading division had been positioned for declining gas prices, Krebber said. He now expects the unit’s first-quarter profit to be “weak,” he told analysts at a Bernstein fireside chat on Thursday. RWE, which declined to comment further, is far from alone in losing money during the market’s biggest rally since the 2022 energy crisis. Hedge funds including Millennium Management and Balyasny Asset Management have also seen losses this month during the violent market moves. After the last energy shock, gas prices in Europe have eased but industrial demand still struggled to recover . Analysts had predicted further price declines as more US and Qatari liquefied natural gas plants were due to come online and boost global supply. That outlook was upended late last month with the first attacks on Iran. Since then, European gas futures have jumped to more than €60 per megawatt-hour on Friday, from about €30 before the war, as traders assess the longer-term impact on supplies following strikes on key production facilities in the Middle East. Last week, RWE said it had reduced its trading exposure, but added that it would remain agile. The trading division has already been under pressure: first-half earnings from trading plunged 95% last year, and full-year adjusted profit fell to its lowest level since 2018, as geopolitical tensions and US tariff turmoil roiled markets. The wild price swings have led some traders in Europe to close positions or choose to sit on the sidelines until markets calm down. Implied volatility has more than doubled since the start of the war, highlighting the risks lingering in the market for the coming months. RWE’s peers likely held similar views on oversupply, though none said so explicitly, according to Patricio Alvarez , an analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence. The...

The Brazilian Treasury’s record interventions in local markets are eating into a liquidity cushion seen as key to managing public debt risks. The cash buffer — built up over recent years to reassure investors that Brazil won’t have problems to roll over debt — has been shrinking as authorities move to stabilize trading conditions amid a rout in global markets. The country’s liquidity cushion has been trending lower since September, when it covered 9.33 months of debt maturities. By January, the latest available data, it had dropped to 6.77 months, still above the Treasury’s minimum “comfort level” of three months. The reserve remains an important tool ahead of this year’s presidential election, when volatility typically intensifies, and as large maturities loom in 2027. The share of public debt maturing within 12 months — a key measure of short-term refinancing pressure — is expected to rise to 22% in 2026 after ending last year at 17.5%, near a two-decade low, according to the government’s financing plan. The increase is largely tied to a wave of 2027 maturities, including floating-rate LFT bonds issued in large volumes in 2021, when the government refinanced short-term liabilities during the pandemic. That dynamic underscores a balancing act policymakers face: intervening to calm markets while preserving enough liquidity to navigate future refinancing peaks. Read More: Brazil Treasury Extends Record Intervention as Volatility Surges Officials are closely monitoring the pace of the cash buffer decline and acknowledge it will need to be rebuilt, according to a person with knowledge of the matter, who asked not to be named discussing private matters. There is still room for further interventions if needed, the person said, but the cushion is not unlimited. Daniel Leal , the nation’s undersecretary of public debt, said the reduction of the cushion “at this moment is not something to cause alarm.” The Treasury, he said in an interview, always pays special attention to ...

Win McNamee/Getty Images News The White House released its National Policy Framework for Artificial Intelligence today, which focuses on protecting children, respecting intellectual property rights, promoting free speech, and accelerating AI infrastructure development. It also contends that federal laws should trump state laws regarding AI legislation "because it is an inherently interstate phenomenon with key foreign policy and national security implications." What's more, "States should not be permitted to penalize AI developers for a third party's unlawful conduct involving their models," it said . This bit of the policy blueprint is in line with many Silicon Valley leaders, such as OpenAI ( OPENAI ) CEO Sam Altman, who has called for federal legislation to regulate AI rather than a patchwork of varying state laws. Multiple organizations have formed, calling for this measure, such as Build American AI and Leading the Future. Google ( GOOG )( GOOGL ), Microsoft ( MSFT ), Anthropic ( ANTHRO ), and Amazon ( AMZN ) have all pushed for a unifying, federal measure to address AI rather than a state-by-state approach. According to an AI legislation tracker , state lawmakers across 45 states have introduced more than 1,500 AI-related bills. New York leads all states with 181 AI bills introduced. The White House policy includes six key tenets that it hopes the U.S. House and Senate can craft into legislation. The first contends AI services and platforms must take measures to protect children and empower parents to control their children's digital environment. Social media and AI companies, such as Meta Platforms ( META ) and OpenAI ( OPENAI ), have tried to address these safety issues. However, lawsuits from parents related to cases where children were encouraged by AI chatbots to harm themselves or others continue to mount. The second objective calls for pursuing the AI data center buildout without infringing on residents with inflated utility bills. The third supports re...

ORCL's stock experienced downward movement today, likely driven by a combination of lingering investor concerns and recent institutional adjustments. While the company reported exceptional fiscal Q3 2026 financial results on March 10, exceeding expectations for revenue and non-GAAP earnings per share, and raising its fiscal year 2027 revenue guidance, several factors appear to be contributing to current negative sentiment. A significant factor is the series of analyst price target reductions that occurred around the earnings announcement and in the days following. Several firms, including Robert W. Baird, Jefferies, Barclays, Deutsche Bank, and TD Cowen, lowered their price targets, even if they maintained positive ratings on the stock. These adjustments, despite strong financial performance, can signal a reassessment of valuation and future growth prospects by the market. Additionally, ongoing investor concerns regarding Oracle's substantial capital expenditures for its AI infrastructure buildout and its financing strategy continue to weigh on the stock. Although the company has addressed these concerns by stating it has secured funding and customer prepayments, the sheer scale of these investments and their potential impact on free cash flow remain a point of scrutiny for some market participants. Furthermore, reports of a securities-fraud class-action lawsuit, alleging misstatements about AI data-center capabilities and capital expenditures, present a legal overhang that introduces uncertainty and potential litigation risk. This type of event can deter investors and contribute to selling pressure. Concurrently, an institutional investor, Narus Financial Partners LLC, recently disclosed a significant reduction in its stake in Oracle, which could also influence market perception. Broader macroeconomic and geopolitical risks, which historically have impacted technology stocks, may also be contributing to the cautious sentiment.

Evgeny Gromov/iStock via Getty Images I've stayed bullish on Kanzhun Limited ( BZ ). Its operating profitability surprised on the upside in the recent quarter. The stock's FY26 capital management (buybacks/dividends) yield is an appealing mid-single digit. My November 20, 2025 update highlighted that this Chinese "recruitment platform" operator delivered above-expectations 3Q25 results. I'm Impressed With Quarterly Margin Enhancement BZ filed a 6-K on March 18, unveiling its latest numbers. The group's normalized "Operating Profit/OP" was 37% higher year-on-year at CNY 0.90B during the Oct-Dec '25 period. This represents a 7% beat against S&P Capital IQ consensus. Also, its 4Q2025 OP-to-sales widened by 7.2ppts to 43.3% on a YoY basis. That's 2.5ppts ahead of the sell-side's 40.8% projection. In my view, growth acceleration and leaner operations were responsible for its solid performance. BZ's recent three-month topline of CNY 2,079M came in above the upper-end of the CNY 2.05-2.07B management guide. The implied 14.0% YoY rise was faster than the +13.2% seen for the preceding quarter. I believe that efforts to deepen its presence in specific client and geographical segments are paying off. The firm shared at the analyst meeting that 4Q25 "revenue contribution from third-tier and low-tier cities approached 25%." The same metric was at a low-teens level in '21. Sales generated by "enterprises with fewer than 100 employees" were up 21% YoY in Q4, according to its briefing disclosures. That's better than the 14% company-wide increase. Separately, its total OpEx declined 7% YoY to CNY 1.36B for the final quarter of the previous year. The "Sales & Marketing" or "S&M" costs-to-revenue for BZ went down from 4Q2024's 20% to 4Q2025's 16%. At the results call, it explained that strengthened "sales efficiency" and the absence of "major marketing campaigns" contributed to this substantial reduction. Positive Indicators For The Year Ahead Analysts are currently forecasting that B...

Chuck Norris, the former world karate champion who used his fight prowess to become the star of a string of low-budget but financially successful action movies, has died aged 86. His family posted a message on social media saying Norris had died on Thursday, adding: “While we would like to keep the circumstances private, please know that he was surrounded by his family and was at peace.” Norris won a series of karate championships in the late 1960s, and his friendship with fellow martial-artist Bruce Lee led to his eye-catching appearance in Lee’s 1972 hit The Way of the Dragon. Norris then went on to make a number of action films over the next two decades, including Invasion USA and The Delta Force, as well as the long-running TV series Walker, Texas Ranger. Norris also acquired a level of political profile for his outspoken support for rightwing political causes. More to come.

Norway’s Crown Princess Mette-Marit said in an interview broadcast Friday that she was “manipulated” by convicted US sex offender Jeffrey Epstein , whom she accused of extorting others. A commoner who married Crown Prince Haakon in 2001, Mette-Marit’s name appears multiple times in Epstein documents released by the US Department of Justice earlier this year. The files revealed an unexpectedly close friendship between the pair and raised questions in Norway about whether Mette-Marit can become queen, with recent polls showing that a majority of Norwegians oppose the idea. Advertisement “Of course I wish I had never met him,” she told public broadcaster NRK during the roughly 20-minute interview, her first since the scandal broke in Norway. “It is extremely important for me to acknowledge that I did not look into his past more carefully, and also to acknowledge that I was manipulated and deceived to such an extent,” she said. Advertisement She also sought to squash speculation about the nature of her relationship with Epstein, who pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting a minor for prostitution and died in 2019 while awaiting trial for sex trafficking.

Palantir Technologies experienced a notable decline today amidst significant intraday volatility, largely influenced by recent developments concerning its substantial government contracts in the United Kingdom. News emerging today indicates growing controversy and calls for the potential termination of Palantir's £330 million contract with NHS England. The UK government has signaled a shift in its technology procurement strategy, aiming to prioritize investment in domestic technology and companies, which could lead to a reassessment of existing agreements with foreign entities. This uncertainty around a key international government segment could understandably trigger investor caution and contribute to selling pressure. Adding to the downside pressure, the company's valuation has been a recurring point of discussion among market participants. Even with strong financial performance, including significant revenue growth and optimistic full-year guidance for 2026 reported in early February, the stock trades at elevated multiples compared to broader market averages. Such high valuations can make a stock particularly sensitive to any negative news or perceived increase in risk, as investors may be quicker to take profits or reduce exposure when uncertainties arise. While Palantir has demonstrated robust growth, particularly in its U.S. commercial and government sectors, and has recently partnered with NVIDIA on sovereign AI architecture, the international government contract headwinds are proving to be a more immediate concern for investor sentiment. The combination of external scrutiny on a major contract and ongoing debates about its premium valuation appears to be a primary driver of today's stock movement.

This isn't another prototype or pilot. It's scale. Rivian and Uber say they plan to roll out up to 50,000 R2 robotaxis across 25 cities spanning the U.S., Canada, and Europe by 2031. That immediately shifts the conversation from "who has the best tech" to "who gets there first at scale." From Vision to Deployment Tesla's approach has been clear: build a vertically integrated autonomy stack and deploy it across millions of vehicles over time. The bet is that once Full Self-Driving is solved, scale follows naturally. But Rivian and Uber are taking a different route—pairing vehicles, platform, and network upfront. Uber brings demand. Rivian brings hardware. Together, they're attempting to compress the timeline between development and real-world deployment. And with a defined rollout plan across multiple geographies, this looks less like experimentation and more like execution. That contrast matters. The Network Vs The Stack At its core, this is shaping up as a philosophical split. In autonomous driving, scale isn't just about vehicles—it's about data. More miles mean faster learning. A 50,000-vehicle fleet operating across continents creates a data flywheel that can accelerate the process. Tesla still has the advantage of an existing global fleet. But alliances like this could narrow that gap faster than expected. The Race Just Got Real The bigger shift here is psychological. Robotaxis are no longer just a Tesla or Waymo narrative. They're becoming a competitive market. A multi-city, multi-continent rollout signals that autonomy is moving closer to commercialization—not just promises. And it suggests that the race may not be won by the company with the best model alone, but by the one that can combine technology with distribution and execution. Tesla isn't out of the race. But it's no longer running alone. Image made with Gemini

Alexyz3d/iStock via Getty Images I previously covered Rocket Lab Corporation ( RKLB ) in January 2026, discussing why I had rated the stock as a Hold then, attributed to the premium valuations arising from the FOMO rally amid SpaceX IPO anticipation. Despite the robust revenue growth, the expanding gross margins, the rich balance sheet, and the growing backlog, I was of the opinion that the stock's overbought technical indicators and elevated short interest offered interested investors a minimal margin of safety then. In this article, I shall discuss why I am upgrading the RKLB stock as a Speculative Buy here, attributed to the materialization of my Buy zones at the $69s, aided by the ongoing stock price consolidation. This is on top of their robust, high growth prospects as observed in the expanding multi-year backlog, the narrowing profit losses, and their ability to finance their aggressive growth profile through capital raises. RKLB Proves Its Space-Boom Beneficiary Status RKLB 4Y Stock Price (TradingView) Since then, RKLB has indeed retraced as posited, with the stock notably finding a trading floor at $66s since early February 2026 and consequently consolidating at those levels over the past few weeks. This development notably follows their three historical trading patterns of up/down cycles since mid-2024, with further sideways trading likely before their eventual breakout upon a positive catalyst. For now, RKLB has already proven their relevance in an increasingly volatile geopolitical environment, thanks to the recent award of an $816M "prime contract by the Space Development Agency to design and build a constellation of 18 advanced missile warning, tracking, and defense spacecraft." This is on top of the "additional subsystem opportunities that could total capture -- could add a total capture value to approximately $1 billion for supplying payloads, solar power reaction wheels and star trackers software and other solutions from our broad portfolio of capab...

Shares of Oracle (ORCL 3.19%) have retreated 48% in the past six months, driven by concerns that the company is spending way too much to build artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure. Oracle's decision to take on debt to fund the infrastructure buildout, along with its reliance on AI start-up OpenAI for a significant chunk of its backlog, has weighed on its shares in recent months. However, on March 10, Oracle stock received a nice shot in the arm after the company announced solid results for its fiscal 2026's third quarter (ended Feb. 28). Let's see why that was the case, and if the stock could go on a bull run from here and make investors richer over the next couple of years. Oracle's smart infrastructure strategy is reaping rewards Oracle's cloud infrastructure business is growing at a terrific pace. The company has been signing massive contracts with customers looking to run AI workloads in the cloud, and its backlog now stands at $553 billion. Oracle posted a 325% year-over-year increase in its remaining performance obligations (RPO) last quarter, which was much faster than the 22% year-over-year increase in its revenue to $17.2 billion.

That's why the company intends to raise $50 billion in debt and equity funding this year. Importantly, Oracle has already raised $30 billion of its target by issuing convertible preferred stock and bonds. Of course, the funding is going to negatively impact the cash flow, as it will have to cover the interest on the debt it is issuing. But Oracle has a big enough backlog to justify its financing moves. Additionally, Oracl...
