Joe Raedle/Getty Images News SpaceX’s ( SPCX ) blockbuster IPO is expected to become one of the largest public offerings in history, but analysts say the deal may reveal little about the overall health of the IPO market, Reuters reported Thursday. The company’s planned listing, which could raise more than $75 billion at a valuation near $1.75 trillion, has generated intense investor interest because of its scale, Elon Musk’s profile and the company’s combination of satellite internet, launch services and AI-related ambitions. Still, market observers told Reuters that SpaceX ( SPCX ) is too unusual to serve as a reliable indicator for other companies considering IPOs. Analysts said investor demand remains focused on a narrow group of sectors including AI infrastructure, defense, energy and biotechnology rather than the broader market. Some bankers also warned that the sheer size of the offering could absorb investor capital and temporarily sideline other IPO candidates, particularly larger deals that depend heavily on institutional U.S. investors. Several companies, including AI chipmaker Cerebras and advisory firm Lincoln International, have recently moved ahead with listings, with some issuers said to be accelerating timelines ahead of SpaceX’s expected debut. Retail enthusiasm is also expected to play a major role in the transaction. Analysts interviewed by Reuters said many individual investors are being drawn more by Musk’s reputation and the rarity of the opportunity than by traditional valuation metrics. Reuters previously reported that SpaceX has discussed allocating as much as 30% of shares to retail investors, far above the norm for major IPOs. The company’s filing showed that most of its $18.67 billion in 2025 revenue came from its Starlink satellite internet business, while its AI operations remain unprofitable. Analysts said the broader IPO market recovery will likely depend more on economic stability, reduced geopolitical tensions and calmer equity mark...

Welcome to Bloomberg’s Banking Monitor . Every Thursday we’ll deliver you the top news of the global banking industry with emerging trends, winners and losers and market opportunities. Sign up now if you’re not already on the list. The lull in releases of annoying new economic data and the more-or-less lull in Iran have left Wall Street free to get back to its day job of raising hundreds of billions of dollars for companies going public and buying each other. Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley won lead roles in the upcoming mega initial public offering for Elon Musk’s SpaceX. The duo are reportedly angling for the same role in an almost-imminent IPO filing for OpenAI , the creator of ChatGPT. Their counterparts on credit teams are lining up about $50 billion of loans and bonds to help clinch Paramount Skydance’s acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery. It’s one of the biggest financing efforts in recent years and it comes with another $6.2 billion for Warner Bros. to clean up some current debt. The credit spigots are so wide open that a unit of Blue Owl Capital was able to raise $400 million for the second time in a month. There was more progress on US deregulation, at least from Wall Street’s point of view. The Federal Reserve terminated enforcement actions against UBS Group and Credit Suisse stemming from their dealings with Archegos Capital Management. Regulators are also looking at pausing cyber-related exams , letting big new issuers duck many of the agency’s strongest disclosure rules for their IPOs and overhauling the secret grades known as CAMELS that examiners use to gauge the soundness of banks. Some frantic lobbying headed off a new Trump regulation that would have made firms debank their customers if they didn’t have the right citizenship papers, which by one estimate would include nearly half the US population. Investors of a certain age may recall watching helplessly as stock brokers “traded through” their obviously superior bids and left them empty handed...

Microsoft, like Alphabet Inc. ’s Google and Amazon.com Inc. , has been designing chips in an effort to reduce its reliance on Nvidia Corp. semiconductors. The company’s Maia chips would give Anthropic another way to run its Claude models, the technology news site reported, citing people familiar with the matter. The talks are in an early stage and may not result in an agreement, the Information said. Microsoft shares jumped about 2% in early trading on Thursday.

The Philippine justice chief ordered authorities on Thursday to enforce an International Criminal Court warrant for the arrest of a senator wanted on an alleged crime against humanity. He warned that anyone helping the senator evade a nationwide hunt would face criminal charges. Senator Ronald Dela Rosa “is a fugitive from justice”, Justice Secretary Fredderick Vida said in a news conference. “He should be brought to the ICC to face the charges.” Dela Rosa is a former national police chief who enforced then-president Rodrigo Duterte’s bloody crackdown against illegal drugs that killed thousands of mostly petty suspects. The killings alarmed Western governments and human rights groups. Advertisement Duterte, who was president from 2016 to 2022, was arrested last year and flown to The Hague, where he is on trial at the ICC on charges of crimes against humanity. Dela Rosa had petitioned the Philippine Supreme Court to block his ICC warrant, arguing that the country no longer belongs to the global court. But the court refused that petition. An activist displays a sign calling for the arrest of Senator Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa, on May 13 outside the Philippine senate. Photo: Reuters Vida said that authorities have leads on Dela Rosa’s whereabouts, but he refused to elaborate. He warned that anyone helping the senator evade arrest would be criminally charged.
Last year, the company generated 207.78 B PEN, the most of which — 178.21 B PEN — came from its top-performing segment, Cloud and License, compared to 166.30 B PEN the previous year. The greatest contribution came from United States, which accounted for 116.11 B PEN last year, with 108.67 B PEN the year before.

The project adds to Google's broader push to expand cloud and artificial intelligence infrastructure as demand for computing power rises. Google said it has contracted for more than 1 gigawatt of new generation capacity in Missouri. Through a partnership with Ameren, the company is also supporting more than 500 megawatts of additional capacity. Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe said the investment shows the state's growing role in technology and innovation. The project is expected to create jobs and support local businesses. For Alphabet, the investment highlights the rising importance of energy access and data center capacity in the AI race. Investors will watch how quickly the Missouri project comes online and whether it strengthens Google's cloud infrastructure.

Nvidia Earnings Fail to Fully Reassure Investors A muted response to earnings from NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) is also weighing on market sentiment, with the AI chipmaker slipping 0.7% in premarket trading.The decline came despite Nvidia posting first-quarter results ahead of expectations, as investors continue to question how long the company can maintain its rapid pace of expansion.“The chip giant is starting to sound like a broken record, playing the same message over and over again,” said Dan Coatsworth, head of markets at AJ Bell. “It effectively says AI demand is strong, lots of customers are queuing up for its chips, and there is still much more to go for.”“The market’s attention is now focused on how long Nvidia can sustain this momentum,” he added. “Even the fastest or strongest athletes run out of steam at some point, and investors are starting to worry that Nvidia cannot...

This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Apple (AAPL, Financials) said it stopped more than $2.2 billion in potentially fraudulent App Store transactions in 2025, using a mix of artificial intelligence tools and human review. The company said the effort also blocked more than 5.4 million stolen credit cards from being used on the platform. That is a meaningful number for a marketplace that handles payments across apps, games, subscriptions and digital services. For Apple, this is not just a security update. The App Store is a major part of its services business, which has become one of the company's most important profit engines. Keeping fraud under control helps protect users, but it also helps Apple defend the value of its ecosystem. That matters at a time when regulators are still questioning App Store fees and rules. For investors, the message is clear: Apple wants to show that its closed platform still has benefits.

quantic69 Morgan Stanley raised the price target on Dell Technologies' ( DELL ) stock to $170 from $110 ahead of the company's earnings results next week but remained cautious on profitability for the second half of the year. The firm kept its Underweight rating on the shares. Dell is slated to report its first-quarter fiscal 2027 earnings results on May 28. "DELL's near-term results are likely to be very strong thanks to GP/AI server strength and large enterprise spend pull-forward. But DELL now trades at an all-time (30%) premium to AI infra peers, and 2H uncertainty remains with memory inflation/supply risk only intensifying," said analysts led by Erik Woodring. The analysts believe it is difficult to be negative about Dell's April quarter print and July quarter guidance next week, as they expect "a blowout F1Q, an above-consensus F2Q guide," and for management to raise full-year EPS guidance to over $13.50 from $12.90. The analysts noted that their Asia checks suggest Dell sees $65B of AI server demand in fiscal year 2027, well above management's $50B target. Though this is where buy-side expectations already sit, according to the analysts. "That said, we remain cautious on 2H profitability given memory inflation/supply shortages have materially intensified over the last 90 days, and 1H demand pull-forward elevates the risk of demand destruction and margin pressure in 2H," said Woodring and his team. Shares of Dell were largely flat but in the red premarket on Thursday.

vzphotos/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Introduction There are times in semiconductors where the storyline changes so much that the old models for valuation just don’t apply anymore. I think we’re reaching that point at Micron Technology ( MU ). Historically, DRAM and NAND have been seen as a commoditized cycle, in which too much supply sent pricing and margins lower. This is shaping up differently than ever before. AI is turning memory into a strategic part of infrastructure. With more inference processing and agentic AI, memory capacity, bandwidth, speed and architecture are now crucial constraints along with GPU performance. The company’s management even called out its memory as a strategic asset to its customers recently. The Financial Metrics Do Not Seem Normal Either Most importantly, the latest quarterly metrics from Micron look completely absurd for what used to be a nearly unprofitable business just two years back. In its recently published earnings release, the company reported fiscal Q2 2026 revenue of approximately $23.9 billion, representing an astounding 196% year-over-year growth . The management also issued impressive guidance of about $33.5 billion in Q3 sales at close-to-record-high gross margins near 81%. More concretely, Micron now expects quarterly sales to exceed its total annual revenue from the fiscal years prior to FY2025. Such results cannot be explained by a cyclical rebound in demand. Instead, the firm seems to receive an industry re-rating based on new AI opportunities. The key feature of this growth that stands out to me is the quality. Micron did not achieve these metrics via an increase in the number of chips shipped. Instead, price gains were driving its top line. DRAM ASP reportedly increased by 65%-67% on a sequential basis. Even greater pricing increases have been seen in NAND chips. Why does it matter? Because price-related growth in the semiconductor space tends to signal scarcity in the industry rather than a short-term spik...

Key Points Berkshire Hathaway sold some stocks due to personnel changes. Two of the stocks it no longer owns still have attractive prospects. 10 stocks we like better than Visa › In his first letter to shareholders as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRKA) (NYSE: BRKB), Greg Abel emphasized that the company's culture and values would remain unchanged. This was music to the ears of investors who feared that once Warren Buffett stepped down, things would change drastically. However, although Abel is following in the footsteps of the Oracle of Omaha, he is still shaking things up somewhat. During the first quarter of his tenure as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, Abel got rid of several stocks from the Buffett era, including one that had been in the conglomerate's portfolio for over a decade. Let's consider two of the stocks Abel dumped and whether investors should do the same. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » 1. Visa Berkshire Hathaway first bought Visa's (NYSE: V) shares in 2011. As of the end of the first quarter, the conglomerate has gotten rid of every last one. Visa has been a great stock to own since 2011, a period during which it has crushed the broader market. So, why did Abel and his team decide it was time to call it quits? One popular theory is that Abel is eliminating the positions formerly managed by Todd Combs, who left the company at the end of last year. Visa was one of them, so Visa had to go. However, this doesn't mean individual investors should forget about Visa. True, the company has encountered challenges in recent years. Visa's shares have underperformed broader equities of late due to several factors, including an antitrust lawsuit filed by the U.S. Department of Justice. But Visa is a resilient company, and the financial services specialist demonstrated that with it...

Selskabsmeddelelse nr. 2026/10 Fynske Banks netto rente- og gebyrindtægter udviklede sig stærkt i første kvartal af 2026, drevet af høj aktivitet og en markant kundetilgang. Negative kursreguleringer påvirker dog kvartalsregnskabet, som ender med et overskud på 18,5 mio. kr. før skat. Resultatet kommer i forlængelse af bankens seneste opjustering til 120-160 mio. kr. før skat for 2026. Fynske Bank arbejder målrettet med en ambitiøs vækststrategi frem mod 2030, og regnskabet for første kvartal af 2026 bekræfter, at de seneste års investeringer i flere medarbejdere, bedre rammer og ny teknologi virker. Perioden viser vækst i både udlån, indlån og det samlede forretningsomfang. Samtidig når bankens netto rente- og gebyrindtægter 107,2 mio. kr., hvilket afspejler høj aktivitet og en kundetilgang, der ligger over forventningerne. Samlet set kommer Fynske Bank ud med et overskud for første kvartal af 2026 på 18,5 mio. kr. før skat. Kursreguleringer udgør et minus på 1,2 mio. kr. mod et plus på 11,5 mio. kr. i samme periode sidste år. Udviklingen skal blandt andet ses i lyset af de geopolitiske spændinger. Det gælder ikke mindst krigen i Mellemøsten, som har skabt uro på de finansielle markeder. Regnskabet er samtidig præget af investeringer i at styrke organisationen med flere medarbejdere. Det sker blandt andet for at sikre, at Fynske Bank også fremover er en moderne og tilgængelig bank, hvor kunderne har nem adgang til deres personlige rådgiver og bliver mødt med relevant og nærværende rådgivning. Samtidig har banken blandt andet styrket sine processer og investeret i robotteknologi og kunstig intelligens for at frigive mere tid til kunderne, øge kundetilfredsheden og løfte kvaliteten af rådgivningen. Vi følger den plan, vi har lagt, og jeg glæder mig især over, at vi er startet året meget stærkt og har fået flere nye kunder end nogensinde før. Vores investeringer virker, og kerneforretningen er i fremgang. Vi har fortsat fokus på bankens langsigtede udvikling og invest...

Saudi $1 trillion wealth fund weighs creating a logistics giant . Brighter view Initial public offerings in India should get back on track in the second half of the year, according to Citigroup, moving on from a rocky start that’s seen foreign investors withdraw capital and the rupee careen to a record low . Plenty rests on a potential record-breaking share sale by Jio Platforms, which is proving increasingly challenging , as well as National Stock Exchange of India’s long-delayed listing . About $3.5 billion has been raised in IPOs in India this year versus $22.4 billion in all of 2025, when it was the world’s third-biggest IPO market. “Over the past two years, 60%-70% of issuance has been concentrated in the final quarter, and current conditions suggest a similar trajectory,” says Arvind Vashistha, Citi’s India head of equity capital markets. “There remains a long runway for deal execution, with full-year volumes likely to be at least in line with last year and potentially 5% or 10% higher,” Mumbai-based Vashistha says. For foreign investors looking at India, interesting themes include the country’s positioning in artificial intelligence and its impact on employment and consumption, according to Vashistha. While these factors will shape capital flows, they won’t derail issuance activity, he says. Meanwhile, Citi’s India head of investment banking, Rahul Saraf, expects more deals to emerge as multinationals reassess portfolios and divest non-core assets. Recent examples i...
