Amazon.com (NasdaqGS:AMZN) is reported to be deepening its AI partnership with OpenAI, including plans to offer OpenAI's new Frontier product on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Microsoft is contesting whether this move breaches its long standing Azure exclusivity arrangement with OpenAI, and public signals suggest the dispute could escalate into legal action. The arrangement reportedly includes a $50b partnership and large U.S. government AI contracts that span classified and unclassified workloads, raising the stakes for the broader cloud industry. For investors watching NasdaqGS:AMZN, this development sits against a backdrop of mixed recent share performance. The stock trades at $209.87, with a 30 day return of 5.6% and a 3 year return of 112.6%, while the year to date return is a 7.3% decline and the 5 year return is 36.0%. These figures show that AWS and AI related news can be important context for understanding where the business is drawing attention.

BP has agreed to sell its giant German oil refinery site in Gelsenkirchen to investment firm Klesch Group as part of the British oil company’s plan to sell off $20bn (£15bn) worth of assets and cut its costs. The value of the sale was not disclosed but BP said it would save the oil company about $1bn of underlying operating expenditure at the complex, which processes about 12m tonnes of crude oil every year, mainly as fuel for cars and aircraft. The sale has also enabled the embattled oil company to raise its cost-cutting target to between $6.5bn and $7.5bn by 2027, or almost a third of its cost baseline in 2023. It will also move forward BP’s divestment programme which has now reached more than $11bn of its $20bn target by the same year. BP is on a mission to shed assets and reduce the complexity of the 117-year-old company after a leadership overhaul as a result of its failed attempt to become a green energy business dampened its market value. The company is also planning a full return to the UK capital by moving its global headquarters to a new development on London’s South Bank. Although its leadership is based at the official global HQ on St James’s Square in central London, many of its technical teams are based in Sunbury in Surrey. Once the move is complete, in early 2028, the company will be based at the 17,800 sq metre (192,000 sq ft) Timber Square office scheme on the South Bank, just a mile away from the global HQ of its European oil rival Shell. The new BP chief executive, Meg O’Neill, will join the company from Australia’s Woodside Energy in April as the first external hire to step into the company’s top job and the first woman to helm a leading listed oil company. O’Neill’s surprise appointment was made late last year, weeks after BP appointed Albert Manifold to chair its board. Manifold replaced Helge Lund, who presided over the oil company’s failed attempt to adopt a green energy agenda. The company’s decision to cut spending on fossil fuels in favou...

Key Points Novo Nordisk has been a leader in its core market for decades. This grants the pharmaceutical giant several advantages. With the weight-loss market still expanding and Novo Nordisk working on new products, the stock can bounce back. 10 stocks we like better than Novo Nordisk › Over the past two years, investors have sold off Novo Nordisk (NYSE: NVO) stock as it has faced a number of challenges. It has been losing ground in the GLP-1 market, which accounts for most of its revenue. Novo Nordisk's 2026 guidance implies that its revenue will decline this year. Despite the headwinds, there are many reasons to remain bullish on the company. Here's one reason why, as a shareholder, I intend to stay put. 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 » Experience matters Novo Nordisk has built a reputation over the past 100 years as a leader in the diabetes drug market. The company has made many breakthroughs and developed several generations of important drugs over this long period. This deep, long-standing expertise grants Novo Nordisk several advantages. First, massive internal data on clinical trial successes and failures can help steer its research in the right direction. It's not that surprising that it quickly established itself as a leader in the rising market for obesity drugs, considering obesity is classified as a chronic, metabolic disorder strongly linked to diabetes, a disease that belongs in the same category. It's also not surprising that the one company beating Novo Nordisk in the weight-loss market right now, Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY), also has a long and successful history in developing diabetes medicines. Novo Nordisk's clinical experience should eventually allow it to launch newer, better products. Second, Novo Nordisk has the manufacturing infrastructure and know-how to produce...

Sjo/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images Shell ( SHEL ) down 1.3% pre-market Thursday after saying its 100%-owned Pearl gas-to-liquids plant was damaged in Iran's attack on the Ras Laffan Industrial City in Qatar. The company said a fire that broke out within the Pearl GTL facility caused by the attack was extinguished, and the site is now in "a safe state," with all staff accounted for. The attacks on Pearl GTL caused "extensive damage," QatarEnergy said in a separate statement, adding that missile attacks on several of its liquefied natural gas facilities caused "sizable fires and extensive further damage." The Pearl GTL plant can process up to 1.6 Bcf/day of wellhead gas and convert it into 140K bbl/day of fuel, including gasoil, kerosene, and base oil, along with petrochemical feedstock.

AMD and Samsung this week signed a rather unprecedented memorandum of understanding (MOU) that involves the strategic supply of memory for AMD's next-generation EPYC and Instinct MI455X products, as well as discussions of a potential foundry partnership. The MOU aims to ensure that AMD gets enough memory for its next-generation CPU and AI accelerator products throughout their life span, whereas Samsung will get a chance to serve as a foundry for a leading supplier of CPUs, AI GPUs, and other products. Samsung has been the primary supplier of HBM3E for AMD's Instinct MI350X and MI355X AI accelerators, so it is not surprising that the core of the new agreement is Samsung’s role as a primary supplier of HBM4 memory for AMD's upcoming Instinct MI455X accelerator. As demand for all types of memory in general and HBM4 in particular exceeds supply, AMD must ensure that its next-generation MI455X accelerator (and possibly other Instinct MI400-series products) gets enough memory. AMD's Instinct MI455X is projected to use 12 HBM4 12-Hi memory stacks for a total of 432 GB. Given such demands, it makes great sense for AMD to sign a strategic memory supply deal, though for now the two companies limited themselves to the MOU. Meanwhile, Samsung said that its HBM4 memory stacks are based on memory devices produced using its 1c (6th Generation 10nm-class) process technology and use a base die made on a 4nm-class logic process, which enables them to achieve a rather unprecedented data transfer rate of 13 GT/s (thus provide up to 3.3 TB/s of bandwidth per stack), which is well above JEDEC's recommended 8 GT/s for HBM4. Yet, memory speeds supported by Instinct MI455X are considerably slower. Article continues below In addition to HBM4, the MOU between the two companies also includes DDR5 supply for AMD's 6th Generation EPYC processors codenamed 'Venice,' as well as AMD's Helios rack-scale systems for AI data centers that rely on EPYC 'Venice' and Instinct MI455X. Again, the move aims ...

Just_Super/iStock via Getty Images By Ivan Castano The burgeoning AI market is boosting lithium demand. Last year, data centers powering chatbots and other applications drove a staggering rise for lithium-iron phosphate batteries, which help provide the stable energy supply these facilities require. These batteries, which are much larger than their lithium-ion counterparts used in electric vehicles (EVs), power so-called Battery Energy Storage Systems ( BESS ). These power stations are quickly dotting the U.S. and other parts of the world. BESSs capture energy from renewable sources such as wind and solar panels, or from the electricity grid, storing it using rechargeable batteries. They then release this load during peak demand periods, power outages or grid balancing. This provides a reliable and uninterrupted source for data centers, whose massive energy consumption means they are exposed to costly power spikes, especially during large language model (LLM) training. BESSs also allow solar energy providers to offset losses stemming from variable (or intermittent) generation. Solar output is highest during the day when the Sun is strongest but lacking at night. By storing excess production during peak sunshine hours, those providers can sell during the evening, enjoying a steady revenue stream. Amid this backdrop, lithium demand for energy storage facilities is growing at a faster rate than EV-driven demand. Last year, BESS demand surged 51% compared to 26% for EVs, though EVs continue to account for about 75% of global battery demand, according to researcher Benchmark Minerals Intelligence. Supply Deficit These factors are contributing to a market shift from an oversupply/lower price cycle to a low supply/higher price one, lifting prices out of a three-year slump. Lithium prices surged 120% in the past six months, changing hands at roughly $20,000 a ton in late February from $9,000 a ton in August of last year when the world's leading battery market, China's CATL,...
