I’m an artist in my 30s without any major success. Before the pandemic I had quite a lot of opportunities. Unfortunately Covid and then political and personal matters beyond my control shattered my work and social circles. I lost contacts and had no time for networking. My art evolved with me and has become less conceptual, more narrative and accessible. The most fulfilling moment in the last few months was when I surprised a local cashier by giving her an illustration. Nevertheless, I’ve started to doubt that I can move people with my art. I don’t know how to reach people without spending hours upon hours on social media (which is draining), and the advance of generative AI worries me. There’s little to no money from art and, while I put all my soul and heart in it, my energy (and health) are not infinite. I see other, bigger, known artists also struggling, while their work was used to train AI models without their consent. I keep asking myself: “What’s the point?” I don’t feel art and artists, cartoonists, illustrators are respected in our culture any more. Should I just give up? Eleanor says: Do you remember when you started making art, maybe in childhood? When you first picked up a pencil, something made you want to keep doing it. It probably wasn’t the thought “I want to do this for the money” or “I want others to recognise my skill at this”. Something in the activity itself called you back. If I’m hearing you correctly, you now don’t know whether you want to keep making art given the lack of money, cultural esteem or industry success so far. Of course that makes sense; anybody would find that demoralising. But the strange thing is that money or success or cultural esteem probably weren’t the point of making art in the first place. You just wanted to do it; it seemed inexhaustible. Because we have to make money somehow, measure things somehow, to be an “artist” in adult vocabulary means to be someone who makes art for money, with success. But I think it’s well ...

Earnings Call Insights: Myers Industries (MYE) Q4 2025 Management View Aaron Schapper, President and CEO, highlighted that 2025 marked a turning point for Myers Industries, marked by the Focus transformation program and the decision to sell Myers Tire Supply (MTS). Schapper stated, "Overall, we believe these actions will unlock substantial value, enhancing the company's long-term growth profile." He reported that fourth quarter sales were flat year-over-year, but excluding the exit of low-margin products and the idling of two rotational molding facilities, sales would have increased 3%. Schapper emphasized, "We expanded margins in the fourth quarter, demonstrating our ability to improve profitability as we grow the business in high-margin applications and align our operating footprint with customer needs." He also noted a 63% year-over-year improvement in adjusted EPS for the quarter and a 23% increase in free cash flow for the year. Schapper described the Focus transformation program’s four objectives, including a culture of execution, strategic portfolio review, delivering reliable results through cost controls, and deploying a disciplined capital allocation framework. He announced the completion of the MTS strategic review and stated, "Once complete, this will result in a portfolio that is focused on growth platforms that drive improved margin profiles." Looking ahead to 2026, Schapper detailed three new strategic priorities: focusing on core markets and customer value, instilling operational excellence and cost leadership, and investing in growth platforms with the highest returns. He stated, "We believe that these focus areas and the related transformation objectives will drive desired strategic outcomes such as deliver revenue growth, EBITDA margin expansion, free cash flow conversion and the acceleration of Myers to a company that achieves world-class performance." Samantha Rutty, Executive VP & CFO, said, "Fourth quarter net sales were $204 million, essentia...

Turn to utilities as a way to play the artificial intelligence trend while protecting against the rising geopolitical risks that are shaking the market, Wells Fargo analysts said. Utility stocks, including American Water Works and Exelon , could serve as strong defensive plays as the U.S.-Iran conflict stirs up market volatility, the bank's analysts said Thursday in a note to clients. "We continue to expect continued relative outperformance over time in a down or up market, risk on or risk off — hence our continued strong stance around the sector: overweight utilities," Wells Fargo analyst Shahriar Pourreza said in the note. Utilities typically offer dividends, which can help cushion portfolios in rocky markets. "[The sector's] defensive nature should provide a 'floor' given the earnings profile and outperform the broader market during times of uncertainty like the current conflict in Iran as has been the case in past volatile times," Pourreza said. The utilities sector has historically outperformed the S & P 500 by roughly 780 basis points on average during global conflicts and recessions, the analyst said. XLU .SPX YTD mountain The State Street Utilities Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLU) vs. the S & P 500 in 2026 The group is also a beneficiary of the AI boom, due to data centers' massive energy demands. "During a period of economic growth [such as] AI build out/industrial restoring, utilities should continue to outperform and benefit from higher infrastructure spend and increased electricity consumption–several utilities now guiding to 8+% [earnings per share] growth, introducing a new wave of incremental investors," Pourreza wrote. Here are a couple of stocks that Wells Fargo highlighted as ways to manage uncertainty around the war in Iran and play the AI expansion.

Zapp2Photo/iStock via Getty Images Federal bank regulatory agencies on Thursday said eligible tokenized securities should be treated as other non-tokenized forms under the capital rules for banking organizations. Tokenized securities are securities using distributed ledger technology. According to a joint statement issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Federal Reserve Board, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, capital rules are technology-neutral. Banks holding such financial instruments must apply sound risk-management practices and comply with applicable regulations, the regulators noted. On such securities qualifying as financial collateral, the regulators said , "An eligible tokenized security that satisfies the definition of 'financial collateral' would qualify as financial collateral for purposes of the capital rule and may be recognized by the banking organization as a credit risk mitigant if all the other relevant requirements in the capital rule are met." Additionally, the regulators noted that the use of permissioned or permissionless blockchains does not change the capital treatment for such financial instruments. The clarification comes amid increasing interest in representing ownership rights in tokenized securities. In January, the New York Stock Exchange, owned by Intercontinental Exchange ( ICE ), announced that it is developing a platform for 24/7 trading of tokenized U.S.-listed equities and ETFs. The exchange was set to seek regulatory approvals for the new platform, which will enable instant settlement, orders sized in dollar amounts, and stablecoin-based funding. Coinbase Global ( COIN ) was also said to be launching tokenized equities in December last year.

gece33 Stagflation is the most realistic scenario as risks have emerged again with a broken global crude oil supply, according to Seeking Alpha analyst Leo Nelissen . Moreover, “a spike toward $100 Brent ( CO1:COM ) could not only cause a sudden spike in inflation but also create vulnerabilities overseas,” he said. In almost a week, WTI Crude prices ( CL1:COM ) have risen by over 10%, while Brent prices ( CO1:COM ) have jumped over 15% to $83/barrel. Also, from Monday, WTI is up 32.5% year-to-date and Brent is up 37%. “Last week we were talking about AI-related deflation! Now WTI's hit $80 & gasoline prices headed to $3.4-$3.5/gal. Even if that's ‘transitory’ (like tariffs) the inflation outlook isn't great,” said Sonu Varghese, chief macro strategist at Carson Group. “Surging oil prices led to the largest single-day increase in gasoline prices since March 4, 2022,” Varghese said in a blog. “Average gasoline prices pierced the $3.0/gallon level once again, rising to $3.11/gallon, the highest since late November.” Prices are now likely to be headed toward $3.30/gallon if the U.S.-Iran conflict doesn’t end soon, he added. Jim Bianco, president and macro strategist at Bianco Research, echoed that sentiment as gasoline prices are up 25 cents in three days. “If gas prices end the month at $3.25, this alone now adds 0.32% to March headline CPI,” he said. “Although my long-term thesis remains growth acceleration, as long as this situation remains unresolved, that’s off the table,” Nelissen concluded.

hapabapa OpenAI ( OPENAI ) launched its latest model, GPT-5.4 Thinking, designed specifically to meet the needs of businesses, placing it in even more direct competition with its rival Anthropic ( ANTHRO ). It's designed to help professionals complete tasks such as building spreadsheets, presentations, and documents. It also demonstrates OpenAI's push into enterprises, which has been a focus of Anthropic. "In ChatGPT, GPT‑5.4 Thinking can now provide an upfront plan of its thinking, so you can adjust course mid-response while it's working and arrive at a final output that's more closely aligned with what you need without additional turns," OpenAI said. The new model is being rolled out today in the ChatGPT app for paid subscribers, as well as in the API and Codex. "It excels at creating long-horizon deliverables such as slide decks, financial models, and legal analysis, delivering top performance while running faster and at a lower cost than competitive frontier models," said Mercor CEO Brendan Foody. OpenAI said it is the best model they've created for building agents to complete tasks across websites and software systems. It also adds to the coding capabilities of GPT-5.3-Codex. In addition to GPT-5.4 Thinking, OpenAI also released ChatGPT for Excel, which allows the chatbot to build full Microsoft ( MSFT ) Excel spreadsheets and gain insights across multiple tabs and formulas. It is available today in beta for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, Edu, and ChatGPT for Teachers users in the U.S., Canada, and Australia. Finally, in the API, OpenAI introduced "tool search," which helps GPT-5.4 work more efficiently and use fewer tokens for systems requiring a vast array of tools.

PaulMcKinnon/iStock Editorial via Getty Images In our last column in the fall of 2025, we upgraded BJ's Wholesale Club Holdings, Inc. ( BJ ) to a Buy following a valuation reset and the projected growth. Shares were able to be grabbed at $87-$88 on the day of publication and rallied to over $102 in a few weeks. That is a solid trading return. Shares were a bit sideways since then but have dipped back toward $95 following the just-reported earnings , which we will discuss in this update column. What has changed is we have 2026 guidance, and that calls for pretty slow growth. We think BJ shares are a Hold right now but would be compelled to move to a Buy once again if we retrace to the mid-$80s, where valuation relative to expected growth would make more sense. Let us discuss. BJ's Wholesale Club Q4 Top-Line Figures And Margin Performance Comparable sales are the key metric we watch for in retailers. Of course we also monitor total sales and margins, looking for expansion on both fronts. We like holding a current position as metrics are all healthy, but the growth is slow. Sure, the valuation is stretched for the growth, but it is a modest premium trading at a market multiple. We saw another quarter of year-over-year sales growth for BJ's, with revenues increasing 5.7% to $5.58 billion. And this surpassed consensus estimates slightly by $30 million. That is welcome news for longs. But more importantly, comparable sales were positive. We want to reiterate that you should be aware that comparable sales here are influenced by fuel and gas prices, but the main driver is still merchandise margins and the price-to-sales mix. Including gasoline, total comparable club sales were up by 1.6% year-over-year, which is nice growth. Backing out the volatile fuel sales, comparable sales were up a strong 2.6%. We also saw great online comparable sales growth that was up 31% year-over-year. The other thing we like about the model is that people need to pay just to walk in the doors. T...

The combination of inflationary pressures, high interest rates, tariff uncertainty, housing affordability issues, and geopolitical tensions continued to weaken consumer confidence around the world, ultimately impacting demand for the products we manufacture. However, we continue to focus on identifying operational efficiencies and commercial synergies that we believe will benefit us when consumer confidence improves and demand rebounds. “Due to the seasonality of our business, coupled with the longer cash conversion cycle of the legacy Tyman business, we expect to be a net borrower during the first half of our fiscal year, which impacts our leverage ratio. Our balance sheet is healthy, and we will remain focused on prioritizing debt repayment as we generate cash. Looking ahead, we continue to be optimistic about ...

U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem attends a House Judiciary Committee hearing on "Oversight of the Department of Homeland Security" to testify, on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., U.S., March 4, 2026. Elizabeth Frantz | Reuters President Donald Trump 's firing of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem will not break the DHS funding logjam , Democrats said on Thursday. Trump announced the firing in a TruthSocial post Thursday, naming Sen. Markwayne Mullin , R-Okla., as her replacement. Her axing comes amid a funding lapse for DHS that began Feb. 14, as Democrats try to negotiate new immigration enforcement policies within the agency to dial back what they say has been overreach. "Not one bit," Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse , D-R.I., said on Thursday when asked if her departure changed DHS funding dynamics. "Not until we have clear assurances that ICE and CBP behavior is going to improve and they're going to start behaving like real police officers and not running around like a bunch of thugs and crazies." Democrats have demanded sweeping changes at DHS after federal agents shot and killed two U.S. citizens during an immigration crackdown in Minneapolis in January. Democrats maintained their position after the U.S. entered a conflict with Iran over the weekend, heightening concerns about retaliation from Iran and its supporters.

【有線新聞】將軍澳醫院一名結腸癌女病人完成橫結腸造口手術，逾三周後才發現位置出錯，同日死亡。有外科醫生表示認錯器官的機會微，有病人組織就透露事件涉及專科醫生帶領兩位受培訓醫生進行手術，希望院方盡快找出出錯原因。 患有結腸癌的85歲女病人，上月7日進行橫結腸造口手術以緩解腸道阻塞，先後入住將軍澳醫院深切治療部及外科病房接受監察。其後轉到靈實醫院作康復治療，維生指數一直穩定，但造口持續出現較高輸出量。直至本月1日，她出現腹痛、血壓低及心跳加速，翌日轉回將軍澳醫院治療。本月3日接受緊急電腦掃描時，才發現造口位置處於胃部，而非橫結腸。病人出現嚴重脫水，室上性心跳過速，在深切治療部接受進一步治療，同日晚上因多個器官衰竭離世。 立法會議員（醫療衞生界）林哲玄：「橫結腸的位置在上腹，亦即是胃部旁邊，兩個器官位置相當接近，當然兩個器官是不同樣，我們有方法去辨認，辨認時需要靠一些特徵，這些特徵認錯的機會是小的，但的確有可能會認錯。一般手術後有臨床監察，亦極少在完成造口手術後再用電腦掃描確認位置，監察的意思是看病人之後的進食、排便、身體的維生指數，這就是臨床監察。」 社區組織協會幹事彭鴻昌：「今次的事故都不應該發生，要尋找為何不應該發生都發生，原因在哪，涉及由專科醫生帶領兩位受培訓的外科醫生進行手術，培訓上是否有東西要改進，我覺得這也是今次根源調查，也要看這範圍。」 個案已轉交死因裁判官跟進，院方對事件深感難過，已向病人家屬解釋及致歉，並會成立根源分析委員會調查事件，八周內完成報告及提出改善建議。
