Strikes by both sides on so-called upstream gas production facilities in recent days are a significant escalation in the war in the Middle East, with potentially long-term consequences. The strikes were the first time facilities associated with the production of fossil fuel energy had been hit in the conflict, rather than sites associated more generally with the oil and gas industry. What has been targeted in recent days? On Tuesday a successful Iranian drone attack resulted in operations at the Shah gasfield in Abu Dhabi being suspended. The site can produce 1.28bn standard cubic feet of gas a day and supplies about 20% of the UAE’s gas supply and 5% of the world’s granulated sulphur used in phosphate fertilisers. On Wednesday an Iranian production facility for the South Pars gasfield, which it shares with Qatar across the Gulf, was struck. The field is the largest in the world and is the biggest source of domestic energy in Iran, which sometimes struggles to produce enough electricity. The strike, which prompted a threat from Tehran of further retaliation against energy infrastructure, was widely reported in Israeli media to have been carried out by Israel with US consent, though neither country immediately confirmed responsibility. The US and Israel had previously held back from targeting Iran’s energy production facilities in the Gulf in an attempt to avoid Iranian retaliation against the oil and gas industries of its neighbours. map of Iran and surrounding area Why are the strikes significant? The strikes are significant because they signal a potential deepening of the war, with longer-term consequences for the global economy. While a cessation of hostilities could result in suspended gas and oil shipments returning within months, experts assess that any significant damage to production itself could have a years-long impact. Warning of the impact of possible further escalations, Saul Kavonic, an analyst at MST Financial, told the Financial Times: “Something tha...

Key Points Sandisk is poised to deliver a big jump in revenue and earnings, driven by the solid demand for storage chips that's outpacing supply. The company's earnings growth potential indicates that it will be a multibagger investment. 10 stocks we like better than Sandisk › Artificial intelligence (AI) has helped several companies achieve market capitalizations of more than $1 trillion in recent years. There is a good chance that the rapid adoption of this technology will help many more companies achieve a valuation like this in the future. After all, AI adoption is expected to increase rapidly in the coming years. Grand View Research expects AI to generate almost $3.5 trillion in revenue in 2033, up from $391 billion last year. That's why it won't be surprising to see a company like Sandisk (NASDAQ: SNDK) achieve the trillion-dollar milestone. 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 share price of the flash storage company has surged by just over 1,200% over the past year. It currently has a market cap of $105 billion. Can it replicate such growth in the future and join the trillion-dollar club? Sandisk's earnings growth prospects suggest that it still has multibagger potential Sandisk stock's 12-fold jump in the past year is driven by the outstanding growth in the company's bottom line. The company reported a non-GAAP (adjusted) profit of $2.99 per share in fiscal 2025 (which ended in June last year), a major improvement over a loss of $3.46 per share in the preceding year. Its adjusted earnings have shot up by almost 150% in the first half of fiscal 2026 to $7.55 per share. Importantly, analysts believe Sandisk's earnings growth will step on the gas in the second half of the year, followed by significant increases over the next couple of years. Sandisk's guidance suggests the sam...

Shares in Gemini Space Station (GEMI 15.40%) declined by more than 14% as of 2:30 p.m today. The company is set to report its fourth quarter 2025 results tomorrow, and the last thing investors wanted to hear about is a heavyweight financial company downgrading the stock today, but that's exactly what happened. Citi downgrades Gemini Space Station A Citi analyst downgraded the stock to "sell" from "neutral" and reduced the price target to $5.50, a level still notably below the price at the time of writing. The analystcited concerns about profitability, particularly in the current environment. It's hard to disagree with the analyst, as despite a recent improvement, the prices of key cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum are still sharply lower this year. Lower prices tend to reduce trading volumes, which isn't good news for Gemini's transaction revenue. Moreover, lower prices also put pressure on Gemini's custodial fee revenue, as they drive down the value of the assets held in custody. That said, the company is doing pretty well in growing its credit card revenue, and investors are hoping for some positive numbers on it when the results are released tomorrow. Expand NASDAQ : GEMI Gemini Space Station Today's Change ( -15.40 %) $ -1.09 Current Price $ 6.01 Key Data Points Market Cap $837M Day's Range $ 5.78 - $ 6.65 52wk Range $ 5.57 - $ 45.89 Volume 3.3M Avg Vol 1.6M Gross Margin 83.46 % Where next for Gemini Space Station The company certainly faces challenges, but the sell-off following the downgrade may be an overreaction. Management has already given preliminary estimates for the results, so there shouldn't be too many surprises. A quarter or two of recovery in cryptocurrency prices, plus ongoing growth in credit card revenue, could support the stock in the future.

The suspended Richarlison is missing for Spurs, with Kolo Muani to lead the line. Dominic Solanke was a doubt for this one and he’s not included in the squad. Jan Oblak is not in Atlético’s XI. Away we go, with three more Champions League last-16 ties to complete. One is almost certainly done, with Bayern Munich 6-1 up as they prepare to host Atalanta. Spurs’ first-half collapse against Atlético Madrid means they’re three goals down – chuck in their turmoil in the league and it’s incredibly hard to see a way back … but maybe Igor Tudor’s playing this on repeat in the dressing room. Realistically, we’ve got to focus on Liverpool’s meeting with Galatasaray, the tightest of the lot, the Turkish side 1-0 up after Mario Lemina’s goal at Rams Park. Arne Slot has got some heat on him but, as Jonathan Liew points out, how much of this is really on him?

benedek/iStock via Getty Images Shares of Camden Property Trust ( CPT ) have been a poor performer over the past year, losing about 15% of their value. Hopes of a bottoming in the apartment rental market have instead given way to fears over a prolonged downturn, causing pressure on the sector, especially for companies like CPT that are focused on the Sun Belt. Despite these fears, CPT is actually taking action to deepen its Sun Belt exposure and take advantage of lower valuations. I last covered Camden in November , rating the stock a “ B uy,” but that call was overly optimistic, with shares down about 4% since then. With updated financials, now is a good time to revisit Camden. Seeking Alpha Most notably, the company is selling off its Southern California properties, which account for about 10% of the business. The company disclosed this alongside its Q4 earnings release. With the $1.5-$2 billion in anticipated proceeds, it will invest $1.1 billion in the Sun Belt and repurchase $650 million of stock, of which $473 million has been completed. Essentially, CPT is using the weakness the Sun Belt is experiencing as an opportunity to add exposure at cheaper property valuations. I am supportive of this counter-cyclical capital allocation, given the favorable long-term fundamentals in the region. As you can see below, Camden owns ~59,000 apartment units, primarily in the Sun Belt expansion markets. It also has ~9% exposure to California and 13.5% exposure to Washington, D.C. Once its portfolio refresh is completed, its Sun Belt exposure will be closer to 85%, across essentially all the major metros in the region. These markets have seen significant population inflows over the past decade, but they also have easier building regulations. As a result, there has been substantial new supply, which has pressured pricing. Camden Property Trust In investing, you often hear the phrase “buy low, sell high,” and that is precisely what CPT appears to be trying to do here. As you can...

Key Points Nebius operates a capital-intensive business, and it's investing heavily in data centers. The company generates positive cash flow, but it's nowhere near enough to fund its capital expenditures. 10 stocks we like better than Nebius Group › Fast-growing companies can be exciting to invest in. Their valuations are modest, and they have a ton of upside, suggesting massive returns. Nowadays, spending on artificial intelligence (AI) and other tech-related areas has been through the roof, and there are plenty of stocks benefiting from that hype. Nebius Group (NASDAQ: NBIS) is a stock that belongs in that group. Over the past 12 months, it has skyrocketed around 370%, making it one of the hottest names in tech these days. It provides companies with AI cloud infrastructure to help "empower builders everywhere." It is investing heavily in data-center expansion, but that is a costly endeavor. And to do that, the company needs to raise cash. It recently announced a bond offering, which led to a decline in its share price. 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 » Nebius to raise $3.75 billion through convertible bonds Shares of Nebius fell by more than 10% on Tuesday, on news of its plans to raise $3.75 billion via convertible bonds. For Nebius investors, it highlights arguably the biggest risk with the business: it isn't generating enough cash to fund its expansion efforts. That raises the risk of dilution, which can have a significant negative impact on the share price. While the notes aren't due until 2031 and later, there is the potential for those notes to convert to stock before then. In 2025, Nebius generated positive cash flow from its operations totaling $385 million, which is great, but it's far short of what it needs. Last year, it spent a whopping $4.1 billion on capital expendit...
