Ford’s current valuation presents a seemingly attractive entry point for value-oriented investors. The forward price-to-earnings ratio of 9 reflects market skepticism regarding the company’s ability to sustain earnings growth. The 4.23% dividend yield, exceeding that of 10-year Treasury notes, may appeal to income-focused portfolios. However, a reliance on dividend payouts to attract capital warrants careful consideration.
They need power. Real, honest-to-goodness electricity. And that’s where things get interesting. Brookfield Renewable. Never heard of them? You will. They’re not making little silicon brains. They’re making the juice that powers the brains. And that, friends, is a different game entirely.
Among them, one stands out – Ole Andreas Halvorsen, a Norwegian by origin, and once a director of equities within the Tiger’s confines. He now presides over Viking Global Investors, a fund managing a considerable sum – over $37.6 billion, as of the last accounting. A vastness of wealth, accumulated through the ceaseless churning of the market, a testament to its capacity for both creation and, one might add, subtle expropriation.
And speaking of falls, we have a potential catalyst brewing. A change at the top of the Federal Reserve. Jerome Powell’s term is ending, and let’s just say the previous administration wasn’t exactly sending him Valentine’s cards. Enter Kevin Warsh. Nominee. Potentially, the next person in charge of the nation’s money supply. Which, frankly, is terrifying. Not because he’s inherently bad – though, let’s be real, no one is inherently good when wielding that much power – but because he’s…complicated. And Wall Street hates complicated.
In its latest financial report, Marathon Holdings revealed a 6% decrease in revenues, totaling $202.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, down from $214.4 million in the same period of the previous year. This decline is primarily attributed to a 14% drop in the average price of bitcoin mined over the quarter. Ah, the thrill of watching your cryptocurrency plummet like a poorly timed joke.
The current epoch, marked by an insatiable appetite for data processing and the electrification of modern life, has focused attention, quite predictably, upon the provision of electrical power. This is not a revelation, of course, but a restatement of the obvious. Less obvious, and therefore more deserving of our consideration, is the critical role played by natural gas in facilitating this transition. It is a bridge, a temporary necessity, and thus, a source of opportunity for those with the patience to observe and the discipline to act.
According to a public listing from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the bank received Morgan Stanley’s application on February 18, 2026, a date so precise it could rival the punctuality of a Parisian opera.
Management commentary highlighted a significant contribution from sovereign AI revenue, which tripled year-over-year. This segment, representing national-level investment in AI infrastructure, generated over $30 billion in fiscal 2026. This figure, while substantial, must be contextualized against total revenue of $215.9 billion and data center revenue of $193.7 billion. While the growth rate is impressive, the absolute contribution remains a relatively small portion of overall revenue, although a growing one.
This UltraPro S&P 500 ETF is what they call a “leveraged” ETF. A fancy word for a bit of financial hocus-pocus. The idea is to make three times the return of the S&P 500 each and every day. So, if the S&P 500 wiggles up by one percent, this UPRO thing aims to leap up by three. It uses some rather complicated gizmos and gadgets to achieve this, but the truly important bit is this: it’s only interested in one day. One measly little day.
They call it a tech stock. I call it a habit. Everyone’s hooked. And habits, well, they pay. The company’s fingers are in a lot of pies, and AI? That’s just the icing. It’s not about predicting the future; it’s about owning a piece of the present, and this one’s got a grip.
