Mahdi Mirzahosseini, a 41-year-old who opened his own butcher shop about a year ago, has not been seen since a double strike destroyed a mixed-use commercial and residential complex.

Bernstein argues that a durable rebound in home improvement spending hinges on improved housing affordability, most importantly through lower mortgage rates and steadier home prices. Persistent high borrowing costs, rising home values relative to incomes, and elevated remodeling expenses have suppressed turnover and discouraged discretionary projec…
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell praised Paul Volcker’s readiness to withstand political pressure as he accepted the Paul A. Volcker Public Integrity Award in a taped video, drawing parallels as he himself faces sustained political criticism, an active Department of Justice probe, and efforts by the administration to influence Fed policy and lea…
A recent Bernstein study frames AI leadership as a function of raw compute capacity, which depends on energy supply, data center buildout and semiconductor efficiency. Today the U.S. holds about 35 zettaFLOPS of AI compute versus China’s roughly 5 zettaFLOPS. China’s strength in electricity generation and rapid capacity additions could enable it to…
Bahrain’s government says a U.S.-made Patriot air defence system intercepted an Iranian drone over the Sitra residential area on March 9, preventing what officials say would have been a deadly strike. The kingdom reported 32 civilians injured from the broader incident and said multiple Iranian drone attacks occurred that day. U.S. Central Command h…
On March 21, Elon Musk said he would cover pay for Transportation Security Administration officers who are approaching a second unpaid work period as a multi-week funding lapse at the Department of Homeland Security continues. The announcement comes as airports report prolonged screening times and airlines warn that staff absences among roughly 50,…
Sprout Social (SPT) is trading near its 52-week low after a bruising year for software multiples. Recent product launches, a $55M acquisition, and a clear move to positive free cash flow have pushed valuation into a deep-value range. This trade idea recommends buying SPT at current levels with a long-term (180 trading days) target of $11.00 and a p…
Credo Technology reported $407M in quarterly revenue with 68.5% gross margins and 200%+ YoY growth, yet the market has punished the stock into the low $100s. With a $19B market cap, healthy free cash flow, and an expanding product moat in Active Electrical Cables and SerDes chiplets, this is an actionable long: entry $104.22, stop $92.00, target $1…
American Airlines (AAL) is trading near $10.63 after a sector-wide selloff driven by a spike in jet-fuel expectations. Valuation metrics (market cap ~$6.9B, EV/Sales 0.66, P/E ~62) and an oversold technical profile (RSI ~31) create a defined, asymmetric mid-term trade: buy near $10.40 with a stop at $9.40 and a target at $13.50 over the next 45 tra…
NetApp combines durable profitability, a tidy free cash flow profile, and direct exposure to hybrid-cloud storage needs that scale with AI inference. With a market cap near $20B, attractive cash generation and an EV/EBITDA of ~11.8, the stock looks well positioned for a multi-month run as enterprises deploy inference infrastructure. This trade idea…
Super Micro's stock has collapsed after a federal indictment tied to alleged illegal exports of GPU servers. The combination of regulatory risk, customer flight risk, and reputational damage creates a high-probability near-term downside trade. I recommend a mid-term short with clear entry, stop and target while monitoring legal developments and ord…
United Airlines has alerted employees that climbing fuel costs tied to the Iran conflict are starting to squeeze the airline sector, even as passenger demand remains robust. The company is preparing for a scenario in which oil reaches $175 per barrel and stays high through 2027, and will reduce roughly 5% of planned capacity in the near term while …
Canton Network's architecture and growing institutional interest make it one of the more compelling infra plays in crypto-finance. With execution lining up and developer activity accelerating, I am adding to my position and laying out a clear trade: entry at $2.50, stop at $1.75, target at $7.50 over a 180 trading day horizon.
Bernstein has outlined six principal elements it sees as defining an evolving Bitcoin market structure. The firm says corporate accumulation, new structured products, strong corporate balance sheets, expanding ETF inflows, rising concentration among long-term holders, and growing institutional and sovereign holdings are together shifting Bitcoin aw…
AGNC's monthly $0.12 dividend, double-digit yield and cheap valuation metrics make a case for a tactical long. Technical oversold signals, elevated short activity and a near-term ex-dividend date create a defined trade with asymmetric upside if mortgage spreads remain stable and funding costs stay contained.
Amkor (AMKR) is executing on an advanced packaging ramp that showed up in Q4 beats and gives management confidence for double-digit revenue growth in FY26-FY27. The business mixes strong free cash flow, modest leverage and solid guidance, supporting a tactical long. Trade plan: enter at $46.50, stop $42.00, target $65.00 over a long-term horizon (1…
Regal Rexnord (RRX) is a cash-generative industrial play on automation, motors and power transmission. The company is not a bargain — P/E ~42 and EV/EBITDA ~13.5 imply expectations for steady growth — but strong free cash flow ($893M last reported), a $11.66B market cap and a conservative balance sheet make a disciplined long trade reasonable. The …
Palladyne AI is a small-cap industrial robotics company combining autonomy software and hardware for defense and industrial customers. The stock trades well below its 52-week high but still commands a premium multiple versus revenue. With a recent cybersecure autonomy partnership, a cash-rich balance sheet relative to debt, and improving profitabil…
Ørsted has shifted narrative from growth-at-all-costs to delivery and margin recovery. We recommend a tactical long trade that bets on de-risking of project execution and upcoming operational updates, with strict stop-loss discipline to protect against execution setbacks.
UBS says recent jumps in energy prices, linked to Middle East tensions, are increasing shipping and production costs for iron ore producers. Higher bunker fuel and mine-site fuel expenses are steepening the global cost curve, meaning more supply becomes uneconomic at lower prices and providing a floor for iron ore values even amid weak demand and e…
Veolia Environnement (VEOEY) is trading near its 52-week low while the core water, waste and energy markets powering its business are accelerating into 2026. With a market cap of ~$9.9B, a 3.9% dividend yield, and multiple recent strategic moves - including the $3.04B Clean Earth acquisition - the company should see outsized earnings and cash gener…
Morgan Stanley says disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz are beginning to produce knock-on impacts that extend beyond immediate oil market pressure. Shortages and delays in petrochemicals, fertilizers and metals such as aluminum are emerging, threatening trade flows, raising input costs for multiple sectors and potentially prolonging broader economi…
High Templar Tech (HTT) trades at a sub-$500M market cap with a single-digit P/E and low price-to-book. Technicals show an oversold setup while recent volume and short activity indicate attention from traders. If HTT's stated shift toward AI-enabled consumer finance products materializes into revenue/margin expansion, the stock has asymmetric upsid…
After three weeks of military confrontation with Iran, the situation that began as a limited U.S.-led campaign has expanded into a broader regional crisis. Energy prices are rising, the United States faces diplomatic isolation from reluctant NATO partners, and additional U.S. forces are being readied for the region despite earlier assurances the en…
A Morgan Stanley report argues that emergent "agentic AI" assistants will lift gross merchandise value by simplifying online purchases, while leaving longer‑term effects on structural profitability uncertain. Analysts say AI could raise the relative cost of paid traffic, push merchants to advertise off platforms and compress margins. The bank sees …
