Netflix Wins Warner Bros. Discovery Bidding War And Starts Exclusive Talks, Reports Say
Bloomberg and Variety reported that Paramount Skydance has cried foul over the sales process, labeling it “tainted”. In a letter sent to Warner's CEO David Zaslav, Paramount's attorneys alleged that Warner's board had “embarked on a myopic process with a predetermined outcome that favors a single bidder,” refering to Netflix.
UWM Holdings Pays You To Wait For A Recovery In The Housing Market
UWM Holdings Corporation is the top US mortgage lender, yet its stock has underperformed, declining 14% over the past year. I see 2026 as a potential inflection point for UWMC, with normalization in the housing market and lower rates supporting volume growth. UWMC faces material risks: a sub-investment grade BB- debt rating, heavy reliance on short-term funding, and concentrated ownership.
Forget IonQ: Alphabet is a Much Better Bet on Quantum Computing.
IonQ has seen revenue surge 222% in the latest quarter, and its stock price has soared as it progresses in the quantum computing market. Alphabet is mainly known for its Google platforms and cloud business -- but it's also developing quantum computing technology.
Why Is Wall Street So Bearish on Tesla? There's 1 Key Reason.
Tesla is witnessing increasing cost pressures across its business. Despite increasing optimism about its robotaxi and Optimus humanoid robot businesses, near-term revenue visibility appears limited.
RFMZ: The Return Is Largely Return Of Capital
RiverNorth Flexible Municipal Income II aims to exploit CEF discounts in the municipal bond space but delivers sub-market, unattractive income. RFMZ's 7.9% distribution is misleading; only 3.16% is true income, with the rest being return of capital—well below competing muni funds. The fund's strategy of capturing CEF discount-to-NAV reversion has not worked in practice, as evidenced by persistently low real yields.
Molina Healthcare: Investor's Eye 2026 Repricing, Amid Ongoing Buybacks
Molina Healthcare faces a 2025 margin collapse due to elevated medical costs, but sector-wide premium hikes are expected to restore profitability in 2026. MOH is structurally insulated from Medicare Advantage regulatory risks, with earnings less exposed to CMS audit and coding volatility than larger peers. Shares trade at depressed valuations (NTM EV/EBITDA 6.6x, 2026 FCF yield 11-12%), and management is executing opportunistic buybacks at these levels.
Ulta Beauty says its bet on K-beauty is paying off
Ulta Beauty has been making a strong push into K-Beauty, and it appears to be paying off. CEO Kecia Steelman said that K-beauty is driving sales and bringing in new customers.
EchoStar: Fair For Its Operations, SpaceX For Free
EchoStar Corporation is rated Buy, driven by transformative deals with AT&T and SpaceX that significantly improve its capital structure and strategic positioning. SATS's hybrid MNO model leverages AT&T's infrastructure and SpaceX's satellite network, transitioning Wireless to a capital-light, scalable business with reduced overhead. Pending regulatory approval of the AT&T and SpaceX deals is critical; successful closure enables material debt reduction and a potential $8.5B equity stake in SpaceX.
Warner Bros. Discovery and Netflix Enter Exclusive Deal Negotiations
Move comes after the latest round of bids for the media company. Paramount and Comcast also made offers.
Mastercard: Becoming A Data Analytics Business
Mastercard has underperformed the S&P 500 and Magnificent 7 YTD; yet, its forward price-to-earnings multiple has contracted 10–15%. Value Added Services segment is growing at 25% YoY, outpacing the Payment Network's 12% YoY growth. VAS revenue nearly doubled from $1.77B (Q1/22) to $3.42B (Q3/25), with growth accelerating from recent acquisitions.
Exclusive: Baidu's Kunlunxin, valued at close to $3 billion, eyes Hong Kong IPO, sources say

6 Reasons To Buy Sprouts Farmers Market Stock
Sprouts Farmers Market is rated a cautious Buy after a 50%+ decline from its June 2025 high. SFM's fundamentals remain strong: high ROE (37%), minimal debt, robust cash flow, and exposure to a growing health-focused grocery niche. Near-term EPS could benefit from aggressive buybacks, a newly launched loyalty program, and a forward P/E of 14.7x, below historical averages.
Jacobs: Multi-Year Growth Driven By Strong Backlog And Increasing AI Infrastructure Demand
Jacobs Solutions is rated a buy, supported by a record $23.1B backlog and robust multi-year revenue growth visibility. J benefits from structural demand drivers like AI-powered data center buildouts, reshoring in pharma/semis, and expanding global infrastructure pipelines. Margin expansion is expected as higher-margin backlog converts, global delivery scales, and AI/digital tools enable premium pricing and operational efficiencies.
Apple Departures Point to Challenges for iPhone's Dominance
Four top lieutenants have left the past 12 months while dozens of others defect to rivals.
ETHA: Ethereum's Stablecoin Story Is Improving
Ethereum is seeing year-over-year growth in users and transactions. Though fees continue to decline broadly. From a valuation standpoint, Ethereum's 1,400x fees multiple puts ETH near its all-time high P/F valuation. MCap/TVL is a bit better at just over 5x. While still totally dominant in the ETF market, ETHA isn't a 'buy' until the SEC allows for asset staking.
Terreno Realty: 2026 FFO Consensus Looks Conservative
Terreno Realty is an industrial REIT with a conservative funding structure, notwithstanding small and gradual recent increases in leverage. 2026 analyst consensus only envisions FFO growth of 4% relative to the Q3 2025 run-rate, roughly half the pace of growth achieved in Q3 2025. I think TRNO will beat estimates thanks to ongoing net operating income growth, as well as further increases in leverage, which make even more sense thanks to Fed rate cuts.
Netflix enters exclusive talks to acquire Warner Bros Discovery studio and streaming service, Bloomberg News reporter says
Netflix has entered exclusive talks with Warner Bros Discovery to acquire its studio and streaming service, a Bloomberg News reporter said in a post on X.
