Advanced Flower Capital Inc. (AFCG) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.12 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of $0.04. This compares to earnings of $0.29 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items. This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of -200.00%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this company would post earnings of $0.19 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.16, delivering a surprise of -15.79%. Over the last four quarters, the company has not been able to surpass consensus EPS estimates. Advanced Flower Capital Inc., which belongs to the Zacks Financial - SBIC & Commercial Industry industry, posted revenues of $5.19 million for the quarter ended December 2025, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 3.78%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $9.22 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates just once over the last four quarters. The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call. Advanced Flower Capital Inc. shares have lost about 22.5% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's decline of 0.4%. What's Next for Advanced Flower Capital Inc.? While Advanced Flower Capital Inc. has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock? There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately. Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Ra...

jetcityimage/iStock Editorial via Getty Images As per my analysis, GE Vernova ( GEV ) is mispriced as a cyclical industrial OEM instead of a single-seller type Infrastructure-as-a-Service [IaaS]. My Strong Buy thesis for GEV stock is based on unpriced/yet-to-price-in temporal and information advantage. Clearly, to me, the margin pace within GEV’s 43 GW of Slot Reservation Agreements [SRAs] can hold 10%-20% pricing premiums for 2030+ hyperscaler capacity. Mainly, GEV operates a zero-cost capital flywheel through leveraging an $8 billion surge in customer progress collections to entirely fund its $11 billion capacity and research expansion. Moreso, the strategic $5.3 billion acquisition of Prolec GE integrates (vertically) the transformer supply chain chokepoint and is securing absolute pricing power in the Electrification segment. Lastly, GEV's expanding heavy-duty gas turbine fleet locks-in a highly lucrative multi-decade services annuity. As an outcome, it is projecting compounding high-margin recurring revenues well into 2035. However, there are major risks to my thesis. The primary one is the Overcapacity Paradox (the AI-driven data center power boom may be a mirage), as GEV’s aggressive capacity ramp to ~24 GW by 2028 may result in highly stranded fixed costs. Apart from that, near-term political issues regarding US offshore wind bans (like Vineyard Wind) and escalating tariffs can temporarily suppress FCF conversion. Shifting from Industrial OEM to a Single Seller IaaS Funded by Negative Working Capital In my opinion, Wall Street is considering GE Vernova as a high-performing richly valued industrial OEM (trading at ~52x TTM P/E with a share price of ~$881.2). The consensus thesis sees GEV stock as it is riding the tailwinds of AI data center buildouts and grid modernization . Analysts are focusing on the $150.2 billion backlog and linearly extrapolating current margins’ state into 2026, alongside fretting over short-term noise like the US government's December...

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the US and Israel are on the cusp of taking complete control of Iran’s airspace as he laid out plans to step up attacks deeper in the country as its defenses are destroyed. “Iran’s capabilities are evaporating by the hour,” Hegseth told a press conference. “While American strength grows fiercer, smarter and utterly dominant, more bombers and more fighters are arriving just today.” “We are only four days into this and the results have been incredible — historic, really,” Hegseth said. In the briefing, Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan Caine spelled out the US strategy, which hinged on clearing out Iranian air defenses with cruise missiles and long-range bombing in the first few days. The strategy will now shift to targets inland with GPS-guided bombs and what Caine said would be precision airstrikes from fighter jets. “This is not a ‘mission accomplished’ situation — this is simply a reality check,” Hegseth said, in reference to the now-infamous moment in 2003 when President George Bush gave a speech in front of a “Mission Accomplished” banner and suggested that major combat in Iraq was over. Details offered by Hegseth and Caine underscored the scope of the US campaign: Caine said the US and Israeli campaign had struck 2,000 targets and sunk 20 Iranian naval vessels. Hegseth said an American submarine sank an Iranian naval vessel in the Indian Ocean with a torpedo — the first time a US attack sub had destroyed an enemy naval vessel since 1945. Caine sought to address concerns that the US might run out of interceptors to repel Iranian attacks, saying the US had “sufficient precision munitions for the task at hand, both on the offense and defense.” He said the US had seen a drop-off in attacks from Iran, including a 73% decline in in drone attacks and an 86% fall in ballistic missile launches.

ADP Private Payrolls Jump To 63K, Stronger Than Expected And Highest Since November Amid the ongoing double whammy of geopolitical and private credit shocks, with a little AI disruption thrown in every other days courtesy of Anthropic's human-displacing agents and smashing capex-lite sectors like a chatbot avalanche, the last thing the market needed is a negative job print signaling a recession has effectively arrived. It didn't get that, at least not yet, because while the February jobs report is still to come on Friday, moments ago ADP reported that private payrolls rose in February by 63K, up sharply from the 11K in January (downward revised from 22K) and above the 50K median forecast. The solid report comes just two before the the DOL is set to report February payrolls which are expected to grow by 58K, a drop from last month's 130K. A detailed breakdown of the job changes shows broad based job gains, with modest declines in mnaufacturing, trade/transportation and a bigger drop in professional/business services. Pay growth for job-stayers was unchanged in February at 4.5% year-over-year. For job-changers, annualized pay growth slowed to 6.3% from 6.6% the previous month. Commenting on the report, ADP chief economist Nela Richardson said that “we've seen an increase in hiring and pay gains remain solid, especially for job-stayers. But with hiring concentrated in only a few sectors, our data shows no widespread pay benefit from changing jobs. In fact, the pay premium for switching employers hit a record low in February.” The question now is whether ADP - which is notoriously uncorrelated with the BLS jobs report - is a leading indicator for a labor market recovery or if, as has been the case in recent years, we are about to see a very disappointing labor print in two days, restarting fears that the US economy is sliding into recession.

Percentages may be rounded. Click to enlarge Market Overview Global markets in the fourth quarter were shaped by the interplay of central bank policy, shifting rate expectations, and recurring geopolitical and trade-related headlines. The Federal Reserve lowered rates at its final meeting of the year, but investors continued to debate how quickly additional easing might unfold as growth signals stayed resilient and inflation readings were interpreted through the lens of data disruptions tied to the government shutdown. Equity markets advanced in a more selective fashion, with ongoing enthusiasm around AI-related investment alongside periodic rotations that favored smaller-cap and value segments at times versus the most crowded mega-cap areas. Outside the U.S., a weaker dollar and relatively more attractive valuations supported international equities; within that, emerging markets also posted gains but tended to trail developed markets modestly, with dispersion across countries and style factors remaining an important driver of results. Meanwhile, intermittent tariff d...

scyther5/iStock via Getty Images Driven by strong performance in its Betting and Media segment and contributions from recent acquisitions, Genius Sports ( GENI ) delivered 37% revenue growth and a 49% increase in adjusted EBITDA, significantly narrowing its quarterly loss. Despite those gains, shares fell in premarket trading Wednesday as investors reacted to non-recurring costs, a 15% decline in Sports Technology and Services revenue, and another quarterly net loss. Combined revenue for all segments increased 31% during the fourth quarter to $240.5M, $5.5M better than expected and helped narrow the company’s net loss per share by a comparable amount to $0.08 per share. This, however, was worse than expected as analysts expected the company to swing to a profit of $0.03 per share. This was a result of increased costs for research and development (+ 71%), sales and marketing (+70%), and general and administrative (+57%), in addition to “transaction expenses” of $5M. For FY26, Genius Sports ( GENI ) expects to generate combined revenue of approximately $810M to 820M (versus $800.4M consensus) and adjusted EBITDA of approximately $180M to $190M. This implies year-over-year group revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth of 22% and 36%, respectively, at the midpoint.
