caio acquesta/iStock via Getty Images Introduction I very frequently get asked what I’m buying in this market. That’s a very reasonable question, especially in light of the fact that I write about investing every single day. In recent weeks, I have gotten this question even more than usual, as I believe it’s based on two main reasons: The market has weakened, and I’m still bullish. So, obviously, people want to know what I’m buying. While I have dedicated way more time recently to providing actionable ideas, this is the perfect time to work on one’s watchlist. I have made just two major transactions this year. I sold Home Depot ( HD ) to buy a lot more QXO ( QXO ), and I initiated a position in Miami International Holdings ( MIAX ). Please bear in mind that I’m not a very active investor. Not only do I manage a very concentrated portfolio of just 16 stocks, but I only put capital to work when I have sufficient liquidity (obviously) and great opportunities. I am not an investor who puts a few hundred dollars in a company and turns it into a big deal in an article. For example, while my MIAX investment was just one transaction, the volume of that transaction is 150% of my entire portfolio value in 2021. I like to go big when I see an opportunity instead of transacting just to keep you entertained. I won’t fake transactions. Google Finance (MIAX) Moreover, I am extremely transparent on what I like to call this exciting “investment journey.” As some of you may know, I’m about to move to Albania. Next month, I’ll fly over. This requires a ton of administrative work for my various operations and came with elevated upfront costs for my real estate project. That’s where a lot of money has gone. Once I’m settled, I’ll be liquid again and likely put more cash to work than ever before, as cheesy as that may sound. On top of that, I’m working on a very exciting project that I will announce to real-time readers (everyone who gets notifications from my articles) a few days from n...

FreshSplash/E+ via Getty Images Urban Edge Properties ( UE ) is a grocery-anchored shopping center REIT concentrated in the D.C. to Boston corridor. It has become interesting as its valuation has steadily become cheaper while shopping center performance continues to improve. The ongoing discussion of a Whitestone ( WSR ) buyout also adds a fresh angle to UE. We will begin with UE analysis and then explore the M&A. UE has historically traded at a high valuation due to having superior catchment radius statistics regarding population density and household income. In the last 10 years, however, it has materially underperformed shopping center peers. SA This stock price underperformance coincided with a period in which fundamentals generally improved, even inclusive of the Covid dip. S&P Global Market Intelligence With higher earnings and a lower stock price, UE has fallen into value territory. Specifically, it is trading at 17.6X AFFO and 79% of net asset value. This makes the stock interesting to us, so we dug into the fundamentals and outlook. UE fundamentals: Advantages and disadvantages Aside from a few straggler properties, UE’s NOI is overwhelmingly driven by its Northeastern submarkets. S&P Global Market Intelligence These markets significantly differentiate UE from peers, which tend to be more sunbelt and west coast. Population density in UE’s submarkets is very high, with over 200,000 people in a 3-mile catchment radius. UE Average household income is also well above average, with only Regency and Federal Realty higher. Naturally, rent per square foot will be higher given these metrics. UE has rent per foot of $21.50 compared to a shopping center REIT average of $20.45. The difference is actually much larger than those numbers make it look, as UE has a high percentage of anchor space, which pulls down rent per foot. Its small shops average $39.94 per foot. These first ring submarkets are in high demand and somewhat limited in available land, which makes it diff...

Getty Images This article was written by Kody Kester (Kody's Dividends). Those who have followed my work over the last seven-plus years on Seeking Alpha know that my investing philosophy mostly centers around dividend growth and value. This is because my mantra is show-me, not usually showy. There's nothing flashy about many years or even decades of consistent dividend growth. Still, in more cases than not, it gets the job done. Hartford Funds - The Power of Dividends One glance at the illustration above drives this point home. Over 52 years, spanning from 1973 through 2024, dividend growers and initiators of the S&P 500 index ( SP500 ) delivered the highest returns of any class by dividend policy: a 10.24% annual total return or a nominal cumulative total return of 159.1x. As if that wasn't enough, dividend growers and initiators posted these returns with 12% less volatility than the equal-weighted S&P 500 index. That brings me to my focus for today, which is Medtronic plc ( MDT ). When I last covered it with a Buy rating in January , I thought its growth tailwinds remained in place. I also liked the A S&P credit rating. Finally, shares were undervalued. Two months later, I'm reiterating my Buy rating. Medtronic continues to have plenty of growth drivers in the coming years. The company's net debt-to-leverage ratio was healthy in Q3 2026. Lastly, Medtronic's shares are a better value now than they were just a couple of months ago. Medtronic's Growth Tailwinds Are Holding Up Medtronic Q3 2026 Earnings Presentation On February 17th, Medtronic released its earnings report for the fiscal third quarter ended January 23rd. The company's reported revenue climbed 8.6% higher year-over-year (or 6% organically stemming from favorable foreign currency translation) to $9.02 billion during the quarter. For more context, that was $110 million greater than Seeking Alpha's analyst consensus in the quarter. What was behind Medtronic's revenue beat for the fiscal third quarter? Just...

Daniel Grizelj/DigitalVision via Getty Images Balanced Fund* - Commentary as of 12/31/25 The fund posted returns of 2.13% (Institutional shares) and 2.08% (Investor A shares, without sales charge) for the fourth quarter of 2025. The fund's underperformance of its benchmark was led by tactical asset allocation, while positive security selection strategies across both equities and fixed income helped to limit this negative impact. The fund had modestly overweight holdings in Japanese and international developed market equities, along with a short position in U.S. stocks relative to Japanese equities. It had an underweight exposure to U.S. duration (interest rate sensitivity), while it closed some underweight positions in U.S. fixed income and reduced directional equity exposure. The fund had a long position in the Japanese yen, Canadian dollar, and Australian dollar versus the U.S. dollar. Contributors Detractors The long positions in Japanese and other non-U.S. developed market equities were additive as global stocks generated positive returns. Within equity security selection, positive performance was driven by fundamental metrics evaluating sales, price, and valuations, which drove overweight positions in the financials and information technology sectors. Within fixed income, overweight holdings in investment grade and high yield credit drove solid performance. Within asset allocation, the primary detractor was currency positioning, as the fund held short positions in the U.S. dollar versus a basket of developed currencies, primarily the Japanese yen. Despite hawkish signaling from the Bank of Japan and continued strength in nominal activity in the country, the currency did not strengthen during the quarter. Within equity security selection, stability-related measures dragged on performance given broader market enthusiasm. A preference for lower-volatility stocks detracted against the "risk-on" market theme. Click to enlarge Further insight In the first half of 202...

财联社3月17日讯（编辑 杨斌）随着沪深北交易所近期集体推出优化再融资一揽子措施，以及转债审核的边际提速，上市公司发行转债的热情又开始提升。 财联社梳理，今年以来，上市公司已发布315.94亿元的转债发行预案，同比增长2.66倍。 不过，存量转债缩水的态势并未止住。业内分析认为，供给放松带来的实际影响可能要在6-7 个月后才会反应。转债的供不应求短期难以缓解，而因再融资新规优化后的转债行业结构有望为投资者提供更多的选择。 再融资放松+审核提速，可转债发行预案激增 3月17日， 申通快递 （002468.SZ）披露向不特定对象发行可转换公司债券预案，本次发行拟募集资金总额不超过30亿元。这是既2月10日 中科曙光 （603019.SH）公告拟发行80亿元可转债后，又一单大额可转债预案。 图：今年发布可转债发行预案的上市公司 （资料来源：Wind数据，财联社整理） Wind数据显示，今年已有20家上市公司发布可转债发行预案，合计拟发行规模315.94亿元。去年同期，有11家上市公司年内发布可转债发行预案，合计规模118.85亿元。 去年8月，伴随A股行情回暖，上市公司曾迎来过一轮转债发行预案高峰。当月共有16家上市公司公布转债发行预案，合计拟融资244.59亿元。此后预案发布的数量回落，而进入2026年后，上市公司对转债发行的热情再度升温。 短期来看，对转债发行影响较大的是再融资新规。2月9日，沪深北交易所皆发布了优化再融资一揽子措施的通知，旨在进一步提高灵活性和便利度，更好服务科技创新和新质生产力发展。优化后的再融资安排突出扶优、扶科政策导向，重点集中在优质上市企业以及科创企业的融资需求。 兴业证券固收分析师左大勇在研报中指出，新规把此前几乎被堵死的破发企业再融资渠道重新打开，叠加流程简化与成本下降，使中长期可转债供给有望实现温和回升。同时转债结构优化，更多偏向于新质生产力方向。 在新规发布后，中科曙光80亿元的可转债发行预案即引起市场广泛关注。另外，科创板公司 奥普特 （688686.SH）在可转债预案发布后，公司股东大会迅速通过。 需要指出的是，2023年的再融资政策对近年可转债市场发行产生深远影响。2023年11月，沪深交易所就优化再融资监管安排相关情况答记者问，严格限制存在破发、破净情形上市公司再融资，并严控连续亏损企业融资间隔期。 此后，上市公司的可转债再融...

Investors who are hiding out in energy stocks amid the war in Iran shouldn’t get too comfortable. That’s the message from several corners of Wall Street, including the research desks at Jefferies Financial Group Inc. and Citigroup Inc. , as the war-fueled spike in oil prices extends an already market-leading performance by the energy sector. Even before the Iran war sent oil prices skyrocketing, energy was by far the top performing of 11 sectors in the S&P 500 Index. The oil and gas producing group has climbed 29% so far this year and remains the runaway leader since the war began, even after Monday’s broad-based rally fueled by optimism that ship traffic could resume through the key oil chokepoint at the Strait of Hormuz. For much of the two weeks since the war started, traders have been pouring money into energy stocks despite the White House’s attempts to soothe investor concerns about soaring oil prices by promising that the spike won’t last. “Are these equities discounting a higher price than what’s being forecast? Probably so,” Ben Cook , portfolio manager at Hennessy Advisors Inc., said by phone on Monday. Wall Street has been trying to find a balance between the risk of oil prices staying higher for longer and the “Trump administration jawboning prices lower versus the more significant force of supply and demand fundamentals.” Analysts at Jefferies said the sector has seen “massive” inflows at US active and passive funds, which have reached the point that the rolling 12-week total has grown to 7% of assets under management, “dwarfing all but the most significant surges” of the last 15 years. “This is within reach of toppish levels,” Andrew Greenebaum , senior vice president of equity research product management at Jefferies, said in a note. Greenebaum noted that at an index level, the weighting of energy stocks in the S&P 500 has jumped by over one-third, from roughly 2.7% to 3.7% of the index, in just 55 sessions. These swings suggests that “much of the pos...

11.10 GMT Controversial voter ID bill to be taken up by Senate after Trump threats Hello and welcome to the US politics live blog. The voter ID bill, would require proof of US citizenship for new voters, could be taken up by the Senate as early as today. The Save America act is a rebranded name for the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility act, or the Save act, a bill that has been circulating through Congress in some version for more than two years. The US House passed the bill earlier this year, but it faces steep odds in the Senate, where it will need 60 votes to move forward because of the filibuster rule. Republican senators face heavy lobbying to lift the filibuster to advance the act. Democrats are uniformly opposed to the legislation and expected to block its passage through the Senate. They say the legislation would disenfranchise millions of American voters who don’t have birth certificates or other documents readily available – both Republicans and Democrats who would be newly registering to vote. The bill would require voters to provide proof of citizenship when they register and to present approved identification when they go to the polls, among other new rules that Trump and his most loyal supporters are pushing as part of an effort to assert more federal control over elections. Federal law already requires that voters in national elections be US citizens. But the legislation would lay out strict new requirements for voters to prove their status. Last week, Trump threatened not to sign any bills until Congress approves the legislation. “All voters must show proof of citizenship in order to vote,” the US president said during remarks on Monday at a Republican event in Miami. “No mail-in ballots, except for illness, disability, military or travel.” The bill also directs states to turn voter rolls over to the Department of Homeland Security for citizenship verification. The justice department has sought access to voter rolls in many states, including filin...

Wolterk/iStock Editorial via Getty Images General Mills ( GIS ) agreed to divest its Brazilian operations to 3corações for an undisclosed sum, as the U.S. consumer foods giant prioritizes streamlining its portfolio to remain profitable in the long term. The company said it will sell its portfolio of top local brands, including Yoki and Kitano, and also offload its supply chain facilities in Pouso Alegre and Campo Novo do Parecis as part of the divestiture. The Brazil business added about $350M to General Mills' top line in 2025. "The transaction increases the company’s operating profit margin and enhances the International segment’s focus on its priority global platforms, including super-premium ice cream, Mexican food, snack bars, and pet food," General Mills said Tuesday. General Mills said it will have turned over nearly one-third of its portfolio through acquisitions and divestitures since fiscal 2018 upon completing the sale.

At least 23 people have been killed and more than 100 others injured in multiple suspected suicide bombings in the north-eastern Nigerian city of Maiduguri, shattering its reputation as a relative oasis of calm in recent years as a long-running insurgency was pushed to the rural hinterlands. Authorities said the explosions went off at the post office and market areas, as well as the entrance to the University of Maiduguri teaching hospital, on Monday evening during iftar, the breaking of fast in the month of Ramadan. The post office and Monday market areas were regularly targeted by suicide bombers at the height of Nigeria’s Boko Haram insurgency, when Maiduguri was a conflict hotspot. Ten years ago this month, 58 people were killed and more than 140 others injured in four separate suicide blasts including in both locations, in one of the deadliest days in the city’s history. The latest explosions came on the heels of an attack at a military post on the outskirts of the city, the capital of Borno state, on Sunday night into Monday morning. While no group has yet claimed responsibility for the incident, Nigerian authorities said the reported bombings had been carried out by “suspected Boko Haram terrorist suicide bombers” using improvised explosive devices.

Photograph: Adewale Kolawole/Reuters “The cowardly attacks targeted crowded public areas in an attempt by the terrorists to inflict mass casualties and create panic within the metropolis,” Sani Uba, a military spokesperson, said in a statement. More than 2 million people have been displaced and hundreds of thousands killed in the region by Boko Haram and its offshoots, including the Islamic West Africa Province (ISWAP), as they battle the Nigerian state in an attempt to establish an Islamic caliphate. Boko Haram was founded in 2002, but intensified attacks after the extrajudicial killing of its then leader, Mohamm...

NVIDIA (NVDA) stock jumped after CEO Jensen Huang revealed at the company’s annual developer conference that purchase orders for its Blackwell and Vera Rubin chip architectures are expected to hit $1 trillion through 2027. That effectively doubles the $500 billion figure the company projected just a year ago. The announcement came just a couple of weeks after a strong Q4 earnings report. Nvidia posted revenue of $68 billion, up 73% year-over-year and ahead of analyst estimates. The company also guided for $78 billion in revenue next quarter, again topping Wall Street expectations. CFO Colette Kress noted that current growth is already exceeding prior estimates, with data center revenue alone reaching $62 billion in Q4. Networking revenue also stood out, growing more than 3.5x year over year to $11 billion. NVDA Stock Revenue, Net Income, and Free Cash Flow Estimates in Billion USD (TIKR) On the call, Huang pointed to agentic AI as the key driver.

A local council has stopped residents from installing any more memorial benches in the town amid concerns that it is becoming “overwhelmed”. Hartlepool borough council has said it is not currently taking any new applications for benches, after concerns from residents that there are too many. After carrying out an audit, it found some parts of the town in particular were “overwhelmed,” and that some of the benches were in poor condition. A report found there were 115 memorial benches on the Headland, 112 on Seaton promenade and 48 in Ward Jackson Park. “The high number of benches in some areas of the town has reached a point where it is not possible to install any more,” the report found. “Seaton Carew and the Headland in particular are overwhelmed with benches. So much so that you cannot walk between some, and in other cases they obstruct access for pushchairs and wheelchairs.” Maintenance of the benches is not the responsibility of the council, but falls to the person who installed it. However, council officers expressed concerns about a lack of records and the state of some of the benches. The local authority has suggested attaching notices to the worst-kept benches, asking those responsible to repair them, or have them removed. If the owners cannot be found, the benches and plaques will be removed and stored for “an agreed period and then disposed of”. The council has paused new applications until it can “fully understand the current situation and until suitable future arrangements have been agreed”. It has also agreed to investigate alternative options for memorials, including benches with space for multiple plaques, steel “memory trees” with engraved leaves, and trees planted in public spaces.

Artificial intelligence is already raising labor productivity and is set to unlock more significant gains in the coming decade, according to Cathie Wood of ARK Investment Management LLC. Wood, who became a household name by betting on disruptive innovation, said non-farm productivity has risen 2.8% year-over-year, but new AI tools should see this pace pick up to as much as 6% annually. “The productivity we are enjoying from these large language models is astonishing,” Wood said in an interview on Bloomberg Television. Even “former skeptics” within her firm have been “blown away by what they can do,” she added. Wood pointed to remarkable revenue growth among frontier AI model providers, noting that Anthropic’s annualized revenue has reached $19 billion, while OpenAI has grown from $20 billion to $25 billion. “We’re going to see $10 to $12 trillion in revenue generation within the next five to ten years from almost nothing now,” she said. “That is going to be a needle mover in terms of GDP.” The comments came as Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang projected at least $1 trillion in sales through 2027, highlighting the explosive growth in the AI sector that Wood’s firm has heavily invested in. Wood’s flagship tech fund has faced pressure recently, but her optimistic outlook on AI’s economic impact suggests she remains confident in the technology’s transformative potential.

You might not realize it, but investors have enjoyed history-making gains since 2019. The benchmark S&P 500 (^GSPC +1.01%) has rallied at least 16% over three consecutive years three times since its inception. Two of these three occurrences have been since 2019 (2019-2021 and 2023-2025). On top of the S&P 500's success, the mature-stock-driven Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI +0.83%) hit 50,000, and the growth-focused Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC +1.22%) briefly touched 24,000. You could almost say that investors have been desensitized to Wall Street's major stock indexes hitting all-time highs because it's been such a common occurrence. But the stock market may not be as impenetrable as the gains in the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite have made it seem. According to one historically accurate signal, Wall Street's benchmark index just sounded an alarm. The question is: Will investors heed this warning? From "magnificent" to "meh" Before digging any deeper, it's important to preface any discussion about historical correlations with a reminder that nothing on Wall Street is guaranteed. If there were a data point or correlated metric that foretold the future with 100% accuracy, you can be assured that every investor would be using it. With the above being said, there are data points and events that have strongly correlated with significant directional moves for the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite throughout history. It's these data points and events that are most interesting. The newest signal that's raising eyebrows has been brought to light by Carson Group's Chief Market Strategist, Ryan Detrick. On social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Detrick published a data set that compared the full-year return of the S&P 500 over 76 years (1950-2025) based on one variable: Did the index break below its December low during the subsequent first quarter (Jan. 1 – March 31)? Detrick found 38 instances in which the S&P 500 broke below its December l...

Lights out A U.S.-imposed blockade has prevented Cuba from receiving oil shipments for months, leading the nation to implement severe energy rationing. Buckling under the pressure, the entire Cuban electric grid collapsed on Monday, cutting electricity to 10M people. While the country has been used to power outages, some of which last several days due to aging infrastructure, things are looking different this time around. Quote: "You know, all my life I’ve been hearing about United States and Cuba. When will the United States have the honor of taking Cuba? That's a big honor. Taking Cuba in some form," President Trump told reporters. "I mean, whether I free it, take it. Think I can do anything I want with it. You want to know the truth. They are a very weakened nation right now. They were for a long time." Given the escalating economic crisis and U.S. pressure, Cuba's Deputy Prime Minister announced yesterday that the government would allow Cuban exiles to invest in and own businesses on the island. There are also reports of riots at government offices, like in the city of Morón, as well as nightly cacerolazos (banging pots and pans) to protest the current situation. Meanwhile, food distribution and garbage collection have been disrupted, while hospitals and transport networks have slashed their services. International carriers, like American Airlines ( AAL ), Delta ( DAL ) and Southwest ( LUV ), also recently cut flights to the Caribbean island. What'...

Key Points The S&P 500 fell below a key level last week, which history suggests is bad news for Wall Street. This historical event comes at a time when headwinds are mounting for the stock market. However, stock market cycles aren't linear, which is a powerful realization for investors. 10 stocks we like better than S&P 500 Index › You might not realize it, but investors have enjoyed history-making gains since 2019. The benchmark S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) has rallied at least 16% over three consecutive years three times since its inception. Two of these three occurrences have been since 2019 (2019-2021 and 2023-2025). On top of the S&P 500's success, the mature-stock-driven Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) hit 50,000, and the growth-focused Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) briefly touched 24,000. You could almost say that investors have been desensitized to Wall Street's major stock indexes hitting all-time highs because it's been such a common occurrence.

According to one historically accurate signal, Wall Street's benchmark index just sounded an alarm. The question is: Will investors heed this warning? From "magnificent" to "meh" Before digging any deeper, it's important to preface any discussion about historical correlations with a reminder that nothing on Wall Street is guaranteed. If there were a data point or correlated metric that foretold the future with 100% accuracy, you can be assured that every investor would be using it.

古巴在美國石油禁運下再度全國大停電，美國總統特朗普稱，自己將「很榮幸」接管古巴，又稱他想怎樣做都可以。 古巴周一再度全國大停電，在首都哈瓦那，民眾在漆黑的家中點起蠟燭，一位古巴教師指他們別無選擇，夜晚只能打開門睡覺。 古巴民眾塞西莉亞說：「我們得準備床墊給這裡的女孩們，讓她們能睡在這裡，因為我們別無選擇，我沒有可充電風扇或發電機，所以我需要開著門，等待。」 亦有民眾表示停電讓他們無法工作，街上店舖都關門。 今次全國大停電影響約1千1百萬人，是過去四個月內，古巴第三次大停電。古巴能源及礦業部官員稱，今次大停電是由國家的電力系統全面失靈引起，系統停電前的運作沒有任何異常，正調查事故原因。 古巴電力部門指，由於系統現時很脆弱，需要逐步修復。古巴國營媒體報道，截至周一晚上，哈瓦那百分之五的居民，及全國多間醫院已經恢復供電。 受美國制裁影響，古巴長期以來難以進口燃料及發電設備，發電廠設備老舊，難以更新，全國電力供應緊張。美國自1月3日軍事打擊委內瑞拉，並俘虜總統馬杜羅後，更切斷了古巴長期以來重要的能源供應。 古巴能源危機引發民眾不滿情緒，古巴當地周六出現反政府示威活動，中部城市莫龍有示威者，縱火破壞執政共產黨在當地的總部及幾間店舖，五人被捕。 古巴國家主席迪亞斯卡內爾指，示威者的訴求是正當的，但不能容忍威脅市民安寧的暴力破壞行為。他指理解停電帶來的痛苦，批評美國近月加劇殘酷的封鎖。 他上周指過去3個月都沒石油運抵古巴，現在主要靠天然氣，太陽能等方式發電，又指已經開始與美國談判。 美國總統特朗普，在白宮橢圓形辦公室回應記者提問時，指正在和古巴對話。 美國總統特朗普說：「我相信我會很榮幸地接管古巴，那將是很大的榮譽，這是很大的榮譽。以某種形式接管古巴，接管古巴，不管我解放還是接管它，我覺得我可以對它怎樣做都可以。」 特朗普又形容古巴是「失敗國家」，說那裡甚麼都沒有，但有很好的土地和人才。

It has been a tough year for Plug Power (PLUG +4.19%) stock. At one point, shares were down in value by nearly 20%. But in recent sessions, shares have recovered strongly. In fact, Plug Power stock outperformed the S&P 500 index by 7% last week alone. What is behind the company's resurgence? One catalyst in particular is likely responsible. Every hydrogen stock investor will want to understand this news. Plug Power just reported a surprisingly strong earnings report On March 2 -- the start of Plug Power's stock price surge -- Plug Power reported fourth-quarter earnings, as well as full-year 2025 earnings. The results were, at least on the surface, impressive.

Does all this momentum make Plug Power stock a buy? Not so fast. Many of the analysts who upgraded the stock are still bearish on the company as a long-term investment, with price targets below the current trading price. And while positive gross margins are encouraging, the company still posted a net loss of $1.7 billion last year -- more than half its current market cap.
