Petrobras (PBR) looks like a classic mispriced cash generator: market cap near $92B, P/E ~7, P/B ~1.2 and a dividend yield above 7%.

Vice President Cevdet Yilmaz said Turkey will preserve a tight monetary policy and maintain fiscal discipline as authorities aim to bring consumer prices lower.

Switzerland's Franjo von Allmen produced a near-flawless descent on the Stelvio piste to claim Olympic gold in the men's downhill with a time of 1:51.61. Italy's Giovanni Franzoni secured silver in front of a 7,000-strong home crowd, while veteran Dominik Paris took bronze. Pre-race favourite Marco Odermatt, the World Cup leader, finished fourth.
ASML remains uniquely positioned to benefit from the AI-driven expansion of data centers and the ongoing node transitions at leading foundries. The company's near-monopoly in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography, a newly authorized €12 billion buyback, and healthy technical momentum support a long trade. I lay out an entry at $1413.04, a stop at $…
Iran's foreign minister said Tehran would target U.S. military bases across the Middle East if American forces that have recently concentrated in the region launch an attack.

IREN plunged after an earnings miss, but management has secured low-cost financing, a $9.7 billion Microsoft commitment, and 4.5GW of power capacity that should drive a re-rating as AI demand converts to recurring revenue. I’m initiating a long trade with a clear entry, stop and target and a 180-trading-day horizon because the balance sheet runway …

Anthropic is allocating millions for a 30-second Super Bowl advertisement that takes aim at OpenAI’s announced intention to introduce advertisements into ChatGPT.

The bank lifted its first-quarter and full-year gold estimates and pushed up silver targets, while cautioning that it will hold off on longer-term revisions because of continued volatility and a divergence between fundamen…
Soluna (SLNH) is trading at $1.05 after a heavy washout that, in our view, overstated the probability of permanent impairment. The company has an enterprise value of roughly $72.8M against a market cap near $100M, implying a tangible asset/recoup cushion and a path to upside if mining economics or asset dispositions normalize. This is a high-risk, …
Intel is promoting its Embedded Multi-die Interconnect Bridge-T (EMIB-T) as a potential challenger to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.'s CoWoS advanced packaging for AI accelerators. Bernstein analysts highlight EMIB-T's ability to support larger reticle scaling, lower material waste through rectangular substrates, and potentially lower per-c…
Celestica is benefiting from surging demand for AI infrastructure and high-density storage. With a market cap near $37.6B, healthy free cash flow and an accepted NCIB, the stock offers an asymmetric risk/reward from current levels. I lay out an actionable trade with entry, stop and target alongside the catalysts and risks to monitor.
U.S. equity indexes experienced a volatile week capped by a Friday bounce, yet the S&P 500 and Nasdaq were still positioned to finish the week in the red after pronounced declines in technology shares.

TikTok Shop has used early rollouts to refine its social-commerce model, with a U.K. launch in 2021 serving as a learning phase and a U.S. expansion in 2023 producing stronger outcomes. A Morgan Stanley industry expert advising brands on the platform says the recent push into Europe’s five largest markets is poised to accelerate, driven by social d…
Iron ore has underperformed other metals as demand cools and seaborne supply grows. Morgan Stanley argues the market retains resilience because the steel production mix still leans on blast furnaces, and cost dynamics set a firmer price floor. Analysts expect a mild price trough in 2026 even as the market moves into surplus.
Morgan Stanley analysts warn that a slowdown in U.S. population growth - driven primarily by reduced immigration - could pull the country’s potential economic output down toward pre-pandemic rates.
