As economic and geopolitical uncertainty increases, so do fears that the so-called artificial intelligence bubble could burst, prompting investors to look for stocks that trade in the opposite direction of the broader market. Enter “negative beta” stocks. Beta is a statistical number that measures a stock’s volatility relative to the S&P 500 or other broad market index. Stocks with a negative beta value move in an inverse relationship to the overall market. Evercore ISI has compiled a list of negative beta names including Mondelez International and Exxon Mobil. These can be a good hedge against market downturns. Will a bear…
The Israeli military is deliberately targeting children in the Gaza Strip and continuing to commit genocide against Palestinians, an independent United Nations commission of inquiry has revealed. In a report released Tuesday, the commission, which concluded last year that Israel committed genocide in Gaza, found that Israeli military operations continue and are causing “unprecedented deaths, injuries and trauma” to Palestinian children. The commission described the alleged deliberate targeting of children as a key indicator of the Israeli authorities’ genocidal intent to destroy the Palestinian people, including after the ceasefire in Gaza took effect. “Despite the October 2025 ceasefire, Israel continues…
What looked like it was going to be a brutal Tuesday for Wall Street turned out not to be as bad as feared. Undoubtedly, some individual stocks are being crushed, especially within the semiconductor industry and the broader artificial intelligence cohort. However, Tuesday’s overall behavior appears to be much more constructive than we thought just a few hours ago. Why were there concerns early this morning? There are two main reasons. First, the Kospi index, South Korea’s benchmark, fell sharply overnight. This market is dominated by two major memory chip manufacturers, Samsung and SK Hynix, and a heated competition continues.…

Don’t expect SpaceX’s tough situation to end anytime soon. SpaceX has not yet traded on the public market for a full week, but the stock price is already proving volatile. After its blockbuster IPO on June 12, Elon Musk’s rocket maker’s market capitalization soared past Amazon and even Microsoft, before falling again. The stock is already down more than 28% from its recent highs, and at one point fell below its opening price of $150. In the end it was around $161. We don’t expect this selling pressure to abate anytime soon, especially as the lockup expires and more insiders…

Amazon Prime’s annual membership is becoming even more valuable at the exact moment when membership growth is becoming more difficult. JPMorgan conducted a combined analysis of all the benefits that Prime offers in the US for $139 a year, and analysts concluded that the membership is worth more than 10 times that amount, or $1,437 a year. For example, we estimate that Prime members in the U.S. will save an average of $550 on shipping costs in 2025, an increase of 10% year over year. Prime Video, Prime Music, and Prime Gaming saved members $228, $120, and $156, respectively, by…
Hong Kong — The buzzing of needles and gasps of pain go silent, replaced by the clatter and rattle of steel colliding with plastic. Usually tucked away in a backstreet in Hong Kong’s bustling nightlife district, visitors to this small tattoo parlor seek out tattoos of tigers and dragons, symbolizing the halcyon days of the neon-lit metropolis. But it attracted a completely different crowd. Push the tattoo table aside and the room becomes a colosseum of adults fighting with Beyblades, a children’s toy that became popular a quarter of a century ago. Customizable spinning tops made from long strips of…
Every weekday, Jim Cramer’s CNBC Investment Club releases the Homestretch, a practical afternoon update to coincide with the last hour of trading on Wall Street. Stocks are down on Tuesday, but well off their trading lows. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq are headed for consecutive declines as AI and data center ramp-up deals subside. The move looks more like profit-taking after a big move than a change in paper, but Micron will need to show in its earnings call after the bell on Wednesday that demand will continue to outpace supply for some time to come.
