John M. Chase/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images Corning's ( GLW ) recent agreements with Meta Platforms ( META ), Microsoft ( MSFT ), and Lumen ( LUMN ) highlight the company's optical opportunity and the strong demand for its products, according to analysts. Shares for the company had edged up 3% during early market action on Wednesday. At OFC 2026 this week, Corning showcased new solutions to optimize AI data center networks, including multicore fiber for higher density, micro cables for interconnecting data centers, advanced connectors for faster deployment, and co-packaged optics to support larger and more powerful AI systems. "Recent agreement with Meta and potential for other similar hyperscaler agreements underscore our estimate of ~$500–$1,000 in connectivity content per accelerator with potential for upside as CPO is deployed," said Citi Research analyst Asiya Merchant in an investor note. "We believe other commitments, such as Microsoft on hollow core fiber and an extended supply agreement with Lumen, underscore the advantageous position Corning is in, where demand for its products remains significantly strong, with customers creating visible commitments and investing in Corning's capacity expansion plans." Citi maintained its Buy rating and $170 price target on Corning. Meanwhile, Oppenheimer reiterated its Outperform rating on the stock. "Corning is successfully positioning itself as an essential infrastructure provider for gen AI DC buildout through deep integrations with ecosystem leaders (NVDA, AVGO, META, MSFT)," said Oppenheimer analyst Martin Yang in a note. "A key valuation driver discussed is the transition to Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) and scale-out data center solutions, which management reiterated could expand the current enterprise business by a factor of 2–3x by 2030."

Markwayne Mullin, the Oklahoma senator chosen by Donald Trump to lead the Department of Homeland Security who will be considered by the Senate on Wednesday, has never served in the US military, but he routinely speaks as if he did in interviews. Two days after the US attacked Iran, for instance, Mullin told Fox News: “War is ugly. It smells bad. And if anybody has ever been there and been able to smell the war that’s happening around you and taste it, and feel it in your nostrils, and hear it, it’s something you’ll never forget. And it’s ugly.” While Mullin’s words might have lead many viewers to assume that he was speaking from personal experience, he went on to suggest, in a somewhat confusing manner, that he was actually talking about what he imagined the defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, had been through. “Fortunately you have President Hegseth, or I say President Hegseth, Secretary Hegseth, that has got a great relationship with President Trump, and President Hegseth’s been there, he’s done that,” Mullin said, with something less than clarity. Mullin did not serve in any branch of the US armed forces, but inherited a plumbing company and took part in a handful of mixed martial arts fights, so it is unclear what experience he describes in interviews. According to Axios, which spoke with people who have heard the conversations, the senator has privately hinted to colleagues that he was involved in dangerous private security work in Middle East war zones before running for Congress in 2012. His past statements came up during his nomination hearing on Wednesday, during which the Senate committee on homeland security and governmental affairs will consider whether he should replace Kristi Noem, who Trump fired as homeland security secretary earlier this month. In response to questioning from Democratic senator Gary Peters of Michigan, Mullin said he has never traveled to a foreign country outside of vacation or mission work. But the day after he spoke of the smell and...

helloabc/iStock Editorial via Getty Images As we continue to encounter tumultuous stock markets, one strategy that investors may choose to pursue is: how can we pick stocks that are insulated from the macro headwinds right now, which are the war/rising oil prices and the threat of AI unseating enterprise software companies? Diversifying into more international equities is one of my core strategies and one that has delivered strong results over the past year. Bilibili ( BILI ), a Chinese video entertainment and gaming company, is a particularly strong buying opportunity. Shares are up slightly since the start of the year, meaningfully outperforming the S&P 500. Amid strong active user growth and ad revenue expansion, I think Bilibili is well poised to continue beating the main U.S. indices. Data by YCharts I last wrote a "Buy" article on Bilibili in December, when the stock was trading at $25 per share. Since then, Bilibili has been one of the few stocks in my growth portfolio to avoid a meltdown. With the company continuing to gain steam in advertising and improving monetization for the buildup in its active user base, on top of still-reasonable valuation multiples, I'm reiterating my "Buy" rating on this name. As a reminder for investors who are newer to Bilibili, here is my full long-term bull case on the company: Hugely popular entertainment platform in China with substantial greenfield opportunity for further expansion. Bilibili is a cross between a social media site, a streaming platform like Netflix ( NFLX ), and a mobile gaming company: in other words, a massive internet conglomerate in China. The company has an impressive base of >100 million DAUs, but it sits in the world's second-most populous country with a rapidly rising middle class, giving it plenty of demographic tailwinds to continue growing. Growth in premium memberships. Though the company's north of 100 million DAUs is impressive in itself, we also find impressive the fact that 25+ million members...

An Israeli journalist received threatening messages from users of the online prediction platform Polymarket after one of his reports, on a minor missile strike near Jerusalem, suddenly became the focus of an unresolved bet about the Israel-Iran conflict. “After you make us lose $900,000 we will invest no less than that to finish you,” said one message to the journalist, Emanuel Fabian. Another said: “You have 90 minutes left to update the lie. If you do this, you will solve the most serious problem you have caused yourself in life … If you decide not to correct it, and leave the lie intact, you will discover enemies who will be willing to pay anything to make your life miserable.” The messages to Fabian were shared with the Guardian. Online prediction markets, once the haunt of a very-online fringe, are rapidly becoming a feature of modern warfare. Several timely bets laid this year suggest insiders may be using them to profit from secret information, such as Donald Trump’s plans to kidnap the Venezuelan leader, Nicolás Maduro, or the timing of US-Israel attacks on Iran. Polymarket, whose investors include a venture capital firm owned by Donald Trump Jr, has faced criticism and regulatory scrutiny over potentially facilitating war profiteering and insider trading. This has not stopped Wall Street from embracing the company: its investors include the Intercontinental Exchange, the owner of the New York Stock Exchange. The company is now marketing a sentiment analysis tool that may shape how larger markets make trades. Fabian’s experience indicates that as well as potentially incentivising insiders to profit from foreknowledge, online prediction markets may push non-insiders to try to forcibly rewrite the record. The messages started soon after Fabian reported on a missile striking an open area near Jerusalem on 10 March. “It was a relatively unimportant update during the day,” said Fabian, a defence correspondent for the Times of Israel. No one was injured in the str...

tupungato/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Shares of Williams-Sonoma ( WSM ) are rallying in early open market trading on Wednesday after the U.S. retailer, which deals in premium kitchenware and home furnishings, reported a profit beat for the fourth quarter and hiked its dividend by double-digit percentages. WSM stock surged as much as nearly 7% to a session high of $194.70. The company raised its quarterly dividend by 15%, or by 10 cents, to $0.76 per share, which is payable on May 22, and for shareholders of record on April 17. During Q4, comparable sales came in at 3.2%, alongside an operating margin of 20.3% and a gross margin of 46.9%. All three metrics managed to beat estimates. Merchandise inventories rose 9.8% to $1.5B, driven by incremental tariff costs of about $80M, the company said. Net income for the three months ended February 1 fell to $368M from $410.72M last year as a result of a higher cost of goods sold and expenses relative to the total revenue. On a per-share basis, the company earned $3.04, beating the average analyst estimate by 13 cents. Total revenue fell 4.1% to $2.36B, missing the estimates by $60M.
