21 May 2026 UPDATE Groundbreaking health features available today on Apple Watch and AirPods Pro Apple Watch delivers sleep apnoea notifications and AirPods Pro provide a clinically validated Hearing Test feature to users in India Starting today, sleep apnoea notifications come to Apple Watch, adding to the many ways Apple Watch acts as an intelligent guardian for users’ health.1 Additionally, AirPods Pro 3 provide a clinically validated Hearing Test feature for users to test their hearing levels in the comfort of their own home.2 “At Apple, we believe technology should empower people to take control of their health, and that starts with giving users tools to detect conditions they may not even know they have,” said Sumbul Desai, M.D., Apple’s vice president of Health and Fitness. “From sleep apnoea notifications on Apple Watch to a hearing test with AirPods Pro, we’re excited to bring these meaningful capabilities to our users in India.” A Powerful Way to Detect Signs of Sleep Apnoea Sleep is an important area of health as it impacts a person’s overall physical and mental wellbeing. Sleep apnoea is a prevalent disorder in which breathing momentarily stops during sleep, preventing the body from getting enough oxygen. The condition is estimated to impact more than 1 billion people worldwide, and in most cases, goes undiagnosed.3 If left untreated, it can have important health consequences over time, including increased risk of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and cardiac issues.4 Breathing Disturbances is an innovative new Apple Watch metric that uses the accelerometer to detect small movements at the wrist associated with interruptions to normal respiratory patterns during sleep. Every 30 days, Apple Watch will analyse breathing disturbance data and notify users if it shows consistent signs of moderate to severe sleep apnoea so they can speak to their doctor about next steps, including potential diagnosis and treatment.

Getty Images By Kevin Flanagan How many headlines can a bond investor handle at one time? Let’s see, at the present time, the money and bond markets have been juggling ongoing Middle East headlines, a return of inflation (both headline & core), better-than-expected jobs reports, new Treasury coupon auctions, etc., etc. Or better yet, how would you like to become the new Fed Chair right about now? That’s the situation new Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh finds himself in. Indeed, Warsh now enters the Eccles Building (Fed Headquarters) as the new leader, while also having a former Fed Chair, a.k.a. Jay Powell still sitting on the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) as an automatic voting member due to his retained stance as a Fed Governor. In terms of upcoming monetary policy, as we have written in a series of Warsh-related blogs this year, the new Chairman will follow the data, and at this point in time, that data is pointing to a Fed that appears to be done cutting rates and is on hold for the rest of 2026. I still don’t think the Fed is close to a rate hike, but for the upcoming June FOMC meeting, a shift in the language of the policy statement from an easing bias to one of a ‘balanced’ outlook seems to be the most likely scenario. However, the fed funds futures market has now fully priced in a rate hike for March 2027, a remarkable shift from its pre-war status of discounting almost three rate cuts for the same timeframe. Figure 1: U.S. Treasury Yields Source: St. Louis Fed, as of 5/15/26. The Inflation Trade The U.S. Treasury (UST) market has also shifted into a different mindset. Indeed, the ‘inflation trade’ has taken hold, whereby yield levels across the fixed coupon maturity spectrum have risen in a rather visible fashion since the end of February (see graph). Here are some highlights: The UST 10-year yield has increased by about 65 basis points (bps) during this timeframe. As of this writing, the yield had jumped to 4.60%, the highest reading since early 2025. Tech...

STORY: Nvidia on Wednesday forecast second-quarter revenue above Wall Street expectations, and assured investors that new customers would let it maintain blockbuster rates of growth. The world's most valuable company expects sales of around $91 billion, compared with estimates of about $87 billion. For the first quarter, Nvidia reported revenue of $81.6 billion, also beating forecasts. However, its shares dropped over 1% in extended trading, in a sign that investors believe Nvidia will face tougher competition. That could come from U.S. rivals Intel and AMD, which are finding new demand for their chips in AI applications. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang told analysts his firm would grow faster than so-called "hyperscale" customers like Alphabet and Amazon. He pointed to a new segment of smaller customers in its data center business that includes AI-specific cloud firms. He added that the company's new "Vera" central processors give it access to a $200 billion market. Huang said Nvidia expects $20 billion in revenue from the new silicon by the end of this fiscal year, in addition to the $1 trillion for existing Blackwell and Rubin chips by 2027.

Getty Images My analysis has been focussed on the tech sector, as many of you may know. In recent times, there are few areas that are hotter than the memory space. Mid last month, I reiterated my strong buy rating on Micron ( MU ), but surprisingly, I haven't yet initiated coverage on Sandisk Corporation ( SNDK ). As you can see in the stock price chart below, the stock has surged an eye-popping nearly 3500% in the past 52 weeks. The memory giant reported their latest earnings results on the final day of April, and today I have decided that it is time for me to start covering one of the most important global NAND suppliers. Seeking Alpha Below, it is shown that their fiscal third quarter was highly robust. Growth is accelerating at an extraordinary pace, and margins are exploding as a demonstration of their immense pricing power. Sandisk also provided promising Q4 guidance, and despite some risks that will be discussed, the outlook seems secure at this point due to the continuing buildout of AI infrastructure. While some may point to the 3500% stock rally as an indication of a bubble forming, I would say that a look at the valuation shows that the company is actually still undervalued right now based on the fundamentals. Therefore, I have decided to initiate Sandisk at a buy rating. Growth is Breathtaking Sandisk Q3 Presentation For their FY2026 Q3, top line results were truly breathtaking and show just how strong the tailwinds are right now for their business. For the company as a whole, Sandisk generated revenues of $5.95 billion, up 251% YoY or 97% QoQ. Either way, there has been an incredible amount of acceleration from the results in their Q2, and so momentum is clearly strengthening for their business. The company also obliterated analyst expectations as they beat them by $1.22 billion. This is a mind-blowing amount of outperformance and shows that we are witnessing something truly extraordinary. In terms of performance by end market, there is little question ...

Amazon (AMZN) Climbs 2.1% on AI Push and AWS Momentum, but Heavy Spending Raises Questions Amazon (AMZN) stock rises 2.1% on AWS AI momentum and Trainium chip growth, but surging capex and weak cash flow raise risks. Written by: Arslan Butt • • 3 min read • Quick overview AMZN shares rose over 2% as investors shifted focus to AI and cloud infrastructure, closing at $265.01. Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced OpenAI-compatible API support for SageMaker, enhancing its position in enterprise AI. Despite concerns over rising capital expenditures and declining free cash flow, Amazon's retail margins and advertising revenues are improving. The company's long-term strategy emphasizes AI infrastructure, with significant investments in custom chips and logistics automation. Shares of AMZN rose more than 2% Wednesday as investors continued rotating into mega-cap AI and cloud infrastructure names. The stock closed at $265.01, near session highs, as optimism around Amazon Web Services (AWS), AI investments, and improving retail margins outweighed concerns about surging capital expenditures and weakening free cash flow. The latest catalyst came from AWS announcing OpenAI-compatible API support for Amazon SageMaker AI endpoints — a move aimed at making it easier for developers to build and deploy generative AI applications on AWS infrastructure. The announcement reinforces Amazon’s increasingly aggressive push to position AWS as one of the central platforms powering enterprise AI adoption. AWS and AI Are Becoming Amazon’s Core Growth Story Amazon’s investment narrative is rapidly shifting away from traditional e-commerce and toward AI infrastructure, cloud computing, and enterprise software. AWS remains the company’s most important profit engine. The cloud unit continues benefiting from: Generative AI demand Enterprise cloud migration AI model deployment Custom AI chip adoption Large-scale data processing One key area drawing attention is Amazon’s Trainium AI chips.

Jamie Dimon said interest rates may climb much higher from current levels, a warning to bond investors at a time when yields have touched multi-year highs. “They could be much higher than they are today,” the chairman and chief executive of JPMorgan Chase & Co. said in an interview with Bloomberg Television. “We may have gone from a saving glut to not enough savings.” Dimon’s view comes as long-dated bonds have come under pressure on concern that higher oil prices may compel central banks to raise interest rates. Add in worries over government spending in Japan, the UK and the US, as well as an artificial intelligence boom supporting growth in the world’s biggest economy, and investors have been seeking greater compensation to own longer-maturity debt. “We do not know when the world gets too scared about that, when inflation makes it where people don’t want to hold long-term duration securities,” he said. “It is going to hit.”

Find your next quality investment with Simply Wall St's easy and powerful screener, trusted by over 7 million individual investors worldwide. Alphabet's Google unit is launching a new line of AI-powered smart glasses with real-time translation and voice navigation features. The glasses are being developed in partnership with eyewear brands including Warby Parker and Gentle Monster. This marks Google's return to the consumer wearable space with Gemini-powered hardware beyond laptops and smartphones. For investors watching NasdaqGS:GOOGL, this move into AI smart glasses adds another hardware angle to a business that is still mostly associated with software and cloud services. The stock last closed at $388.91 and has gained 23.4% year to date and 131.5% over the past year, with a very large 3 year and 5 year return profile. Those returns indicate that the market has already priced in a significant amount of optimism around Alphabet, so fresh hardware initiatives may draw extra attention. The renewed push into wearables also extends the Gemini ecosystem into everyday accessories that people already wear. As Meta and Apple step up their own AI hardware efforts, Google’s partnerships with established eyewear brands could be important for adoption, design quality and consumer trust. Investors may want to watch how quickly these glasses reach shelves and whether they start to feature meaningfully in Alphabet’s reported hardware segment over time.
