Bank of America economists say the U.S. economy could still head toward stagflation or reflation as persistent inflation and mixed growth signals collide.

Alphabet looks like a buy from current levels: robust free cash flow ($64.4B), low net leverage (debt/equity 0.16) and continued AI investments create upside. Near-term technicals are extended (RSI 71.6) and investor focus on Google I/O and potential bond issuance raises event risk. Trade plan: enter at $398.75, stop $375.00, target $460.00 over a …
Alibaba's ADR dropped sharply following the release of Q4 fiscal 2026 results that showed a near-total erosion of adjusted profitability and negative free cash flow, even as the Cloud Intelligence Group reported robust AI-driven revenue expansion.

Investors poured a net $22.37 billion into U.S. equity funds in the week to May 13, the biggest weekly inflow in three weeks, driven in part by upbeat revenue guidance from chipmakers and an elevated rate of corporate earnings beats.

Broader market weakness added pressure despite an analyst price-target upgrade earlier in the week.
Hims & Hers (HIMS) sold off after Q1 results that showed margin compression and a net loss, but revenue growth, raised 2026 guidance and a clear path to branded GLP-1 distribution make the pullback a buyable setup.
