ESA's Solar Orbiter camera probe begins raising its orbit towards the sun's poles, whilst Betelgeuse's elusive buddy continues to sneak past our best telescopes.Earlier this year, Solar Orbiter started to stretch its orbit over greater latitudes – effectively standing on cosmic tiptoes to catch a glimpse of the Sun's poles. This week, we have seen the first ever pictures of them, and as solar scientist Steph Yardley tells us, the views will only get better.Meanwhile, Andrea Dupree of the Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and colleagues have had time to study new Hubble and Chandra telescope observations of the iconic star Betelgeuse searching for signs of its hypothesised binary companion – dubbed “Betelbuddy”. The papers that appeared on the Arxiv pre-print server have not yet been fully peer-reviewed, but it seems astronomers will have to keep looking.Humans use machines to read gene sequences as best they can, but it takes time and is not perfect because we do not know what all of it means. Of course nature has its own genome reader – the ribosome. It is this that interprets the genetic instructions contained in our DNA and translates them into actual proteins. Viruses, of course, use it too when a cell gets infected. Shira Weingarten-Gabbay has this week demonstrated how scientists can make use of ribosomes too. Working somewhat in reverse, her team have identified many thousands of proteins previously unknown, that could for example provide targets for future vaccines or antivirals should the need arise.Finally, Nanshu Lu and team in the University of Texas at Austin have been working for some years on two-dimensional wearable electronic “E-Tattoos” to monitor health non-invasively through our skin. Their latest work, describes “A wireless forehead e-tattoo for mental workload estimation”.Presenter: Roland Pease Producer: Alex Mansfield Production co-ordinator: Jasmine Cerys GeorgePhoto Credit: ESA & NASA/Solar Orbiter/SPICE Team, M.

The U.S. just received a downgrade to its credit rating, should you worry? Last week, Moody's announced it downgraded the United States sovereign credit rating from AAA to Aa1. While a downgrade is important to understand and can have negative consequences for interest rates, this downgrade did not seem too problematic. I mainly say that because Moody's was the last major credit rating agency to have the U.S. at the highest possible rating. The first downgrade carried the most weight in my opinion as it had the highest shock value. Standard & Poor's was the first to move in August 2011 and the stock market fell 6.66% the session after the announcement. Fitch then lowered its rating on U.S. debt in August 2023 and the stock market lost 1.38%. After this Moody's downgrade the stock market seemed to have little reaction as it actually had a small increase following the news. While this downgrade may sound scary, I don't believe it will have long term consequences considering the fact that US debt is still viewed as a very safe asset. With that said, the US does need to address the growing deficit problem as further downgrades from these credit agencies could cause problems.   Demand for electric vehicles is falling dramatically Electric vehicle sales in the month of April declined 5% while the overall car market grew by 10%. This is only the third monthly decline in four years for electric vehicles. The reason for the decline is consumers are watching their spending more than they have in a while and many of the deals and promotions for electric vehicles have disappeared. It was not just Tesla who had difficulty because of Elon Musk's political association, but even Kia, Hyundai and Ford experienced drops. Rivian was hit hardest on their R1T pickup truck as it saw a 50% decline in sales for April. With some of the crazy electric vehicle lease deals gone, consumers are also asking the question about charging related concerns. There are some car buyers who were considering buying an electric vehicle but they said it's not worth the stress of charging your vehicle all the time. It's just much easier to pull into a gas station that is always easy to find. This is only one month of electric vehicle sales and not a trend that has been going on for a while, but with the increased production of oil from OPEC and a large potential supply of oil in the future, gas prices should decline which takes away the incentive of paying more for an electric vehicle.   High risk, private market investments are showing up in more 401(k) plans Another big 401K provider called Empower who oversees $1.8 trillion in 401(k) assets for about 19 million people has decided it will start allowing private credit, equity and real estate in some of the accounts they administer later this year. I think this is a terrible idea for investors. I have seen the back end of these private deals and many times investors have made no money from them and can only get out a little bit of their money at a time, while they are suffering from low returns and high fees. No surprise Wall Street loves these private market investments because of high fees, which range anywhere from 1% to 2% of the portfolio balance on an annual basis. One way they are trying to sneak in the private market funds is with a 10% allocation in the popular target date funds. This is pretty sneaky because you may be thinking you're getting a pretty conservative stock and bond fund that becomes more conservative as you get older, but with a 10% allocation in these private assets I believe it will increase the funds risk and lower the returns going forward. As always, the bankers on Wall Street only care about generating more fees, and don't care if investors lose money as long as they bring in their billions of dollars in profits. If you see these in your 401(k) options, cross them off the list and stick to the traditional long-term investments that have worked for so many years now.   Financial Planning: Who Benefits from the new SALT proposal? The current SALT deduction allows taxpayers who itemize to deduct up to $10,000 of certain state and local taxes, most importantly their state income taxes and property taxes, from their federal taxable income. The new proposal in the House bill would raise this cap to $40,000 for households earning under $500,000, with a phaseout that fully eliminates the expanded deduction at $600,000. Married and single tax filers alike with incomes over $600,000 would be subject to the $10,000 SALT limit. This change is intended to benefit middle- and upper-middle-income taxpayers in high-tax states, while limiting the benefit for higher earners. The proposal also includes annual 1% inflation adjustments beginning in 2026. If the bill is signed into law in its current form, the larger deduction would apply beginning in tax year 2025. If passed, tax payers who make less than $600k in high tax states who own a home with a mortgage will see the biggest tax benefit and they may want to adjust their tax withholdings or estimated tax payments to account for it. However, the bill has not passed the Senate, and the final terms are likely to change.   Companies Discussed: CAVA Group, Inc. (CAVA), First Solar, Inc. (FSLR), Levi Strauss & Co. (LEVI), & UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (UNH)

Maheep Mandoli discusses the solar space, which he believes is due for a rebound as two major overhangs - the Inflation Reduction Act and tariffs - are addressed. Mandoli expects investors to return to solar stocks, which have been trading at low valuations since before the 2024 election. He also shares his top pick, First Solar (FSLR) which he thinks can benefit from nearshoring and has a competitive pricing advantage.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

First Solar (FSLR) rallied more than 22% and closed as the SPX's top performer... but some investors may have missed the big move. George Tsilis points to reports that the House GOP budget will cut but not fully remove tax credits for wind and solar energy. Analysts on the name upped bullishness for First Solar after those reports hit the wire.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Jste s námi rádi Ve vatě? Podpořte nás, prosím, v anketě Podcast roku. Hlasování probíhá až do 5. června. Děkujeme.Svět čeká, co bude se cly Donalda Trumpa. Jenže zboží v obchodech v Americe mezitím dochází. „To zboží nebude, a pak bude dražší,“ varuje investiční specialista Michal Semotan ve speciálu podcastu Ve vatě.Dvě z pěti 3D tiskáren, které společnost Prusa Research vyrobí, míří do Spojených států. Zatímco svět je v tenzi, jaká cla nakonec Trump celému světu „napaří“, Josef Průša přezdívaný „král 3D tisku“ je relativně v klidu. Tarify ve výši deseti či dvaceti procent by pro jeho zboží zvlášť velký problém nebyly, obzvlášť pokud americký prezident uvalí na Čínu cla přes sto procent.Druhá největší ekonomika světa totiž své domácí technologické výrobce masivně dotuje. Trumpova cla ve výši 125 procent na dovoz čínského zboží by však mohla tento doping odmazat a startovní pozice by se srovnala, myslí si Průša. „Na první pohled to vypadá, že na tom budeme lépe oproti Číně, kde je většina naší konkurence,“ uvažuje podnikatel v podcastu Ve vatě.Ale celní války mají i svou odvrácenou stranu, kterou si byznysmen dobře uvědomuje. Zdražení celé řady zboží a následný pokles poptávky. „Cla by dorovnala dotace, které do našeho oboru dávají v Číně, to by bylo hezké. Ale nesmí se stát to, že celý trh pak zkolabuje, když se běžným lidem všechno zdraží,“ říká.Zboží dochází, svět čeká na dohoduPřestože je platnost cel odložená zhruba do začátku července a lídři dotčených zemí s americkým prezidentem horečně vyjednávají, obchod mezi kontinenty už zpomalil. Lodě naložené zbožím čekají v asijských přístavech.„Čím déle se bude nejistota prodlužovat, tím déle budou lodě někde čekat, a tím větší dopad to na ekonomiku bude mít. To zboží nebude, a pak bude dražší. V zájmu obou stran je dohodnout se co nejrychleji a snížit tarify na co nejnižší úroveň, aby škody byly co nejnižší,“ přemýšlí portfolio manažer Michal Semotan z J&T Investiční společnosti.Obchody zatím doprodávají staré zásoby, ale ty mohou už za pár týdnů dojít. „Lidi to zatím ještě moc nevnímají, protože všechen maloobchod ještě prodává sklady, které nakupovali, platili a proclívali předtím, než tarify přišly,“ popisuje situaci v Americe Josef Průša.Američané však už začínají být v nákupech zdrženlivější, s příchodem recese do Ameriky totiž počítají téměř všechny velké americké banky. „Za mě je pravděpodobnost recese zhruba 60 procent,“ odhaduje analytička One Family Office Anna Píchová. „Už chodí výstražná data o spotřebě a je velká pravděpodobnost, že druhý kvartál bude taky negativní,“ dodává.Když recese ve Spojených státech udeří, Evropa bude se zpožděním následovat. „Je to propojené, takže si myslím, že je pravděpodobné, že se recese přelije i sem,“ odhaduje Michal Semotan. Oba se shodují, že k nějakým dohodám však nakonec dojde a cla v drakonické výši, jak je Trump prezentoval začátkem dubna, nakonec nebudou.„K dohodě mezi Čínou a Spojenými státy, myslím, dojde. Nějaká cla na určité typy zboží ale zůstanou,“ předpovídá analytička Anna Píchová. Jestli je pro firmy složité odhadnout budoucí vývoj, investoři nejsou o mnoho moudřejší.Jak přestavět portfolio?Přebudovat portfolio, aby bylo vůči případným clům imunní, ale není jednoduché. Možnost je zaměřit se na firmy, které produkují výhradně v USA, ovšem i ty často odebírají součástky z Asie, které budou tarify zasaženy.„Pokud se tomu chcete úplně vyhnout, tak byste se museli soustředit na telekomunikační firmy nebo pojišťovny,“ doporučuje Semotan, který do portfolia dokupoval například tituly jako automobilka Rivian či výrobce solárů First Solar.Opouštět americké akcie a vrhnout se ryze na ty evropské ani Píchová ani Semotan nedoporučují. „Americké firmy jsou tak dobré díky jejich investicím do výzkumu a vývoje. Kolik ony investovaly do vývoje nových produktů, nových technologií, neinvestoval žádný jiný region. A je tam kapitál. Amerika není tak významná jenom proto, že je tam přívětivé podnikatelské prostředí,“ uvedla Píchová.„50 procent Amerika, 30 procent Evropa a 20 procent třeba ostatní trhy. A případně bych pro dynamického investora klidně zařadil pět až 10 procent krypto,“ modeluje Michal Semotan ideálně diverzifikované portfolio pro příští měsíce.Největší chybou by ovšem bylo nechat se Trumpem „rozhodit“, připomíná Anna Píchová. „Rozhodně zběsile neměnit tu svoji strategii, když vám všechno padá pod rukama, nedělat unáhlené obchody. Maximálně portfolio doplnit o věci, které třeba popadaly a kterým věříte. Proto by každý investor měl mít část portfolia v hotovosti, aby ji mohl využít k dokupování,“ radí analytička Píchová.Trumpův budíček pro Evropu?Trumpova razantní celní politika by mohla být budíčkem pro Evropu, která svým růstem za USA roky pokulhává.„Jestliže se Evropa chytne za nos a některá nesmyslná nařízení zruší a bude se tady více investovat, bude se tady více vyrábět a využije se ten potenciál podpůrného balíčku, který se schválil v Německu, tak ekonomika dostane velký impuls a ono se to postupně propíše do firem, do zisků firem a do toho, že spotřebitelé budou mít víc peněz, budou víc utrácet, stát vybere víc na daních,“ říká Semotan s tím, že vybrané evropské akcie by se mohly v dohlednu vyšvihnout.Podle Průši se závod mezi USA a Evropou bude lámat na tom, kdo se jako první naučí v praxi využívat umělou inteligenci. „Tady v Evropě jsme víc na jistotu než v Americe. Tam když někdo dostane nápad, tak hned do toho jde. Tady chybí dravost. Nadchnout lidi je tu složitější.“Průšova společnost před časem expandovala i za oceán. V americkém státě Delaware buduje fabriku, kde bude 3D tiskárny produkovat pro americký trh.„Od léta loňského roku tam děláme pilotní výrobu. Máme novou fabriku o 10 000 m² a budeme tam přesouvat větší a větší část výroby. Všechno bude záležet na tom, na které komponenty se nám tam podaří sehnat lokální dodavatele,“ říká zakladatel firmy.Svou výrobu do USA Průša kompletně přesouvat nehodlá. „Mně je tady dobře. Jsme globální firma, takže mně dává největší smysl dělat to na obou kontinentech zároveň.“Zároveň se mu v posledních pěti letech daří odpoutat od závislosti na asijských komponentech. „U předchozí generace tiskáren jsme měli do 30 procent komponentů z Asie, teď jsme na tom daleko lépe. Úplně bez Číny bychom to zvládli, bez Asie ale ne,“ uvedl vývojář v podcastu Ve vatě. Nové tiskárny jsou proto navržené tak, aby šly vyrobit kdekoli na světě.„Po letech přesouvání výroby do Asie jsou lidi, kteří tyto technologie tady zvládali, už dávno v důchodech. Fabriky jsou rozebrané. A ty zkušenosti už tady nejsou, takže přenést tu výrobu narychlo během dvou, tří let na západ je v podstatě nereálné,“ lituje Průša.*****Ve vatě.

The following information is gleaned from Ethisphere's website and has been re-ordered for presentation here. Also, note that companies are not ranked. So, some quotes. “The World's Most Ethical Companies is an annual recognition… Earning this recognition involves a comprehensive application and evaluation of your Ethics and Compliance program through Ethisphere's proprietary Ethics Quotient® (EQ), which assesses a company's ethics and compliance program, culture, and governance practices. The listed 2025 World's Most Ethical Companies Honorees outperformed a comparable index of global companies by 7.8 percent from January 2020 to 2025. In 2025, 136 organizations are recognized for their unwavering commitment to business integrity. The honorees span 19 countries and 44 industries, and include 11 first-time honorees and 6 organizations that have been named to the honoree list 19 times, marking every year since its inception. The six organizations that have been recognized by Ethisphere as honorees for 19 consecutive years, since the inception of the World's Most Ethical Companies® list in 2007, are: Aflac (AFL), Ecolab (ECL), International Paper (IP), Kao Corporation (KAOOY), Milliken & Company (private), and PepsiCo (PEP).” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Alternative Energy Stocks (1) This next article takes us to our ethical and sustainable investors' favorite sector. It's titled 4 Alternative Energy Stocks to Buy Amid Growing Investment Trends. It's by Aparajita Dutta and seen on finance.yahoo.com, though originally published on zacks.com. Here are some quotes from her article on her picks. “1. OPAL Fuels Inc. (OPAL) Based in Boston, MA, the company is a vertically integrated renewable fuels platform involved in the production and distribution of renewable natural gas for the heavy-duty truck market… The company currently sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). 2.

What if the key to solving our rising materials costs and hurdles to decarbonize hard-to-abate industries lies in a radical shift in thinking—laying solar panels directly on the ground and using the cheap electrons they produce to make hydrogen?When I first heard of Erthos, I thought, like many of you I'm sure, “What a radical idea! Will that even work? Lay the panels directly on the ground???” Yet, the more I learned about the company, it's leadership, and their approach to creating the cheapest cost of solar energy, I decided I needed to suspend my reservations and go see it for myself. And, to my surprise, Jim Tyler and his all-star leadership team didn't even want to talk to me about the “earth-mounted solar” innovation, and instead, focused much of the attention and time on their next big move - Hydrogen!Jim Tyler, CEO of Erthos, has been on a mission to reduce the cost of solar for a long time. He's been part of some of the most iconic and important innovations in the solar industry, and was one of the early pioneers to focus on driving cost out of the installation process. With his background in semiconductors, industrial energy, and food processing, Jim saw an even bigger opportunity: using low-cost, DC-coupled solar to produce hydrogen in the most cost-effective way possible.In this conversation, Jim explains why Erthos' culture of breaking industry norms is now driving them into hydrogen—and how their disruptive approach could redefine the future of clean energy. Regardless what you think of Erthos, there's no denying that Jim and his team are yet again shaking up the industry and forcing people to think different.Expect to learn:Why earth-mounted solar could push the cost of solar energy closer to zero.Why industrial steam—one of the largest energy demands globally—could be the breakthrough use case for green hydrogen.How Erthos' created a direct DC-to-hydrogen system that eliminates inefficienciesWhy investors from Tesla, SpaceX, and First Solar are betting on this model.Why the Navajo Nation could become a key hub for renewable energy manufacturing—and how solar could drive jobs and economic growth in the region.I'm curious to hear your thoughts, skeptical or otherwise, once you've had a chance to give this a listen!And we have some fun b-roll from or visit to Jim's office, testing lab and skunk-works facility where they're building their hydrogen electrolyzer prototypes.If you want to connect with today's guest, you'll find links to his contact info in the show notes on the blog at https://mysuncast.com/suncast-episodes/.Our Platinum Presenting Sponsor for SunCast is CPS America!SunCast is proudly supported by Trina Solar.You can learn more about all the sponsors who help make this show free for you at www.mysuncast.com/sponsors.Remember, you can always find resources, learn more about today's guest and explore recommendations, book links, and more than 730 other founder stories and startup advice at www.mysuncast.com.Subscribe to Valence, our weekly LinkedIn Newsletter, and learn the elements of compelling storytelling:

By Ron Robins, MBA Transcript & Links, Episode 146, January 24, 2025 Hello, Ron Robins here, welcome to my podcast episode 146 published January 24, 2025, titled “Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks.” It's presented by Investing for the Soul. Investingforthesoul.com is your site for vital global ethical and sustainable investing mentoring, news, commentary, information, and resources. Now I'm having to record this podcast two days earlier than usual. But it is still filled with great, up-to-the-minute, informative articles! Also, remember that you can find a full transcript and links to content – including stock symbols and bonus material – on this episode's podcast page at investingforthesoul.com/podcasts. Also, a reminder. I do not evaluate any of the stocks or funds mentioned in these podcasts, and I don't receive any compensation from anyone covered in these podcasts. Furthermore, I will reveal any investments I have in the investments mentioned herein. Additionally, quotes about individual companies are brief. Please go to this podcast's webpage for links to the articles and more company and stock information. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (1) Today, I'm starting with two articles on low-carbon ETFs and stocks from analysts at carboncredits.com. The first article is titled Top 5 Carbon ETFs for Sustainable Investing in 2025. It's by Saptakee S. Here are the picks and brief quotes from the article. “1. iShares Global Clean Energy ETF (ICLN) is a part of BlackRock and a top-performing ETF… Essentially, this fund tracks an index of stocks in the global clean energy sector. One important attribute of this ETF is its strict sustainability rules. It excludes companies involved in weapons, tobacco, coal, oil sands, and Arctic drilling. (It) currently manages assets worth $5-6 billion. 2. Invesco Solar ETF (TAN) known as TAN, manages assets valued between $3–4 billion… This fund focuses on solar energy companies, such as manufacturers, installers, and technology providers… TAN is based on the MAC Global Solar Energy Index. It invests 90% of its assets in securities, American depositary receipts (ADRs), and global depositary receipts (GDRs) listed in the index… 3. First Trust Global Wind Energy ETF (FAN) known as FAN, currently manages assets worth $2–3 billion… It's prospective for those managing wind farms, producing wind power, or making wind energy equipment. However, companies must have a market cap of at least $100 million, a daily trading volume of $500,000, and a free float of 25% to join the index. 4. SPDR S&P Kensho Clean Power ETF (CNRG) currently has assets worth $1–2 billion… It is managed by State Street's Investment Solutions Group and is built for long-term growth. With its focus on innovation and the clean energy sector, this ETF is a great option for those wanting to invest in the future of renewable energy. 5. Global X Lithium & Battery Tech ETF (LIT) gives investors access to the booming electrification, lithium, and battery technology sector. Their assets have a $4–5 billion valuation… The ongoing global demand for lithium and supply constraints make this ETF a promising investment in this sector.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (2) Now this is the second article on Low-Carbon investments titled Top 5 Carbon Stocks to Watch in 2025. It's by Jennifer L. and also found on carboncredits.com. “1. Brookfield Renewable Partners (BEP) is one of the world's largest publicly traded renewable energy companies. With a clear focus on clean, renewable energy, Brookfield Renewable Partners distinguishes itself from many of its competitors by operating as a pure-play renewable energy company. This means that its portfolio consists exclusively of renewable sources of power generation, unlike other companies that often combine renewable energy with fossil fuel assets. As of 2024, Brookfield Renewable Partners diversified portfolio encompasses over 35,000 megawatts of operating capacity across various renewable energy sources. This extensive array of assets spans multiple regions, including North America, South America, Europe, and Asia, underscoring Brookfield Renewable Partners commitment to global renewable energy development. For investors seeking exposure to the renewable energy sector with a preference for established companies demonstrating stable growth and reliable returns, Brookfield Renewable Partners represents a compelling option. 2. Aker Carbon Capture ASA (AKCCF) is a Norwegian company specializing in carbon capture technology. Leveraging its expertise from the Aker Group, a global leader in offshore engineering, Aker Carbon Capture has developed modular carbon capture systems that are both cost-effective and scalable… With a solid financial foundation and strategic partnerships, Aker Carbon Capture is well-positioned to expand its carbon capture solutions globally. The aim is to contribute significantly to the reduction of industrial CO₂ emissions and support the transition to a low-carbon economy. 3. LanzaTech Global, Inc. (LNZA) is a pioneering carbon recycling company that transforms waste carbon emissions into sustainable fuels and chemicals through innovative biotechnology using gas fermentation. Through this process, industrial emissions—rich in carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide—are converted into ethanol and other chemicals… The ethanol produced can serve as a building block for various products, including jet fuel, plastics, and synthetic fibers. With a solid financial foundation bolstered by recent capital raises and strategic partnerships, LanzaTech is well-positioned to expand its carbon recycling solutions globally, creating sustainable products from waste carbon. 4. Occidental Petroleum Corporation (OXY) is a major player in the oil and gas industry. However, in recent years, the company has been transforming itself into a leader in carbon management solutions.  Occidental has embraced Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology, which removes CO₂ directly from the atmosphere. In partnership with Carbon Engineering, Occidental is constructing the world's largest DAC facility in Texas, a groundbreaking project that will play a significant role in achieving global emission reduction targets… Occidental's approach is an example of how traditional energy companies are evolving to embrace sustainability. By combining its existing expertise in oil extraction with innovative carbon capture methods, Occidental is paving the way for a future where fossil fuel extraction can coexist with carbon reduction technologies. 5. Equinor ASA (EQNR) formerly known as Statoil, is a Norwegian energy giant that has diversified its portfolio to include renewable energy sources like wind power. It has also been at the forefront of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technologies for over 25 years… Equinor is a key player in the Northern Lights project, a pioneering initiative in Norway aimed at developing a large-scale carbon capture and storage infrastructure… Equinor has decades of experience in offshore oil and gas exploration. Its deep-rooted knowledge of energy infrastructure is key to its success in developing large-scale carbon capture and storage solutions. With the potential to store the equivalent of 1,000 years of Norwegian CO₂ emissions beneath the seabed, Equinor's initiatives are pivotal in supporting global climate goals.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (3) Still, on the theme of energy-related investments is this article titled 3 Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy in 2025 and Hold for Decades. It's by James Brumley and found on fool.com. Here is some of what Mr. Brumley says about his picks. “1. Cameco (NYSE: CCJ) one of the planet's top suppliers of uranium, with access to plenty of high-grade reserves. Its two chief mining operations in Saskatchewan, Canada, are currently jointly capable of producing a total of 43 million pounds of high-grade uranium per year, but both could support more output at only marginally more cost… Do prepare for continued volatility from Cameco stock that reflects the continued volatility of uranium prices -- although maybe not quite as much as you might expect. Confidence in nuclear power as a clean source of electricity is slowly but surely improving, leveling out these swings. 2. Brookfield Renewable (BEPC -2.65%) (BEP -1.29%). (Yes, a second recommendation in this podcast.) If you feel confident that renewable energy as an industry is investment-worthy but you don't know where to start, consider a stake in Brookfield Renewable Corp. With it, you'll own a little of everything the business encompasses… There is one detail worth pointing out there. That is, this is not Brookfield Asset Management (BAM.TO), Brookfield Corporation (BN), or Brookfield Wealth Solutions (BNT). Although all of these companies are related, Brookfield Renewable is the only one with direct exposure to the alternative energy market. The others are simply involved in the management and marketing of Brookfield Renewable. 3. First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR) First Solar stock is down nearly 40% from its June peak largely on concerns that President-elect Donald Trump isn't as supportive of solar power as his predecessor was. And maybe he isn't. The solar tax credits that boosted the business under President Joe Biden's watch are anything but guaranteed to last through Trump's tenure… The irony is that the analyst community is still calling for strong growth from First Solar regardless of who's occupying the White House. Last year's projected top-line growth of 29% is expected to be followed by 32% growth this year, followed by 21% revenue growth next year. Even producing half of that anticipated growth should shake this stock out of its current funk and rekindle a long-term advance.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Best Low-Carbon ETFs and Stocks (4) And, yes, another analyst article on the renewable energy theme — but with a very different angle. It's titled 2 Renewable Energy Stocks to Buy in 2025 and Hold for Decades by Leo Sun on aol.com. It was originally published on fool.com. “1. NuScale Power (NYSE: SMR) produces the only small modular reactors (SMRs) that have been certified with a Standard Design Approval (SDA) from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). Its SMRs can be installed in vessels that are just 9 feet (2.7m) wide and 65 feet (20m) tall -- which makes them much easier to deploy than larger nuclear reactors. NuScale's modular designs are prefabricated, delivered, and assembled on-site. That approach reduces the costs and construction time of a working nuclear reactor. Its current reactor clusters are certified for up to 55 megawatts of electricity… NuScale's stock has already surged nearly 650% over the past 12 months in anticipation of that approval, but it still trades more than 20% below its all-time high from last November. Analysts only expect its revenue to rise 4% to $24 million in 2024. 2. CleanSpark (NASDAQ: CLSK) develops modular microgrids for wind, solar, and other renewable energy sources. These microgrids can be deployed as stand-alone systems or plugged into existing energy grids, and they're used to funnel energy into storage systems, backup generators, and load management solutions. CleanSpark initially developed these green energy systems for other companies, but it evolved into a Bitcoin miner upon acquiring ATL Data Centers in May 2021. It upgraded ATL's mining facilities with its technology to boost their efficiency and demonstrate that it was possible to mine Bitcoins with low-carbon energy… From fiscal 2024 to fiscal 2027, analysts expect its revenue and adjusted EBITDA to grow at a CAGR of 36% and 22%... That makes it a great long-term play if you expect Bitcoin's price to keep climbing and the renewable energy market to keep expanding.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Additional article not covered due to time constraints 1.

Please go to this podcast's webpage for links to the articles and more company and stock information. ------------------------------------------------------------- Consider These Top ESG Stocks! (1) I'm beginning this podcast episode with a great article titled The Top Stocks Widely Owned by ESG Funds. It's by Frances Aufderheide and found on morningstar.com. Here are some quotes from the article. “We found five stocks owned exclusively by large-cap sustainable funds in the industrials, materials, and healthcare sectors. We describe them below, with insight from Morningstar analysts and Sustainalytics. Source: Morningstar Direct. Weights as of Oct. 31, 2024. Data as of Nov. 5, 2024. 1. Ecolab (ECL) Morningstar Rating: 2 Stars Morningstar ESG Risk Rating Assessment: 3 Globes Price/Fair Value: 1.14 Total Return Year to Date (Month-End): 24.75 ‘As the global leader in the cleaning and sanitation industry, Ecolab provides products that help its hospitality, foodservice, and life-sciences customers do laundry, wash dishes, maintain clean manufacturing environments, and ensure regulatory compliance. With unmatched scale and a solid razor-and-blade business model, Ecolab's competitive advantages are firmly in place.' ‘Ecolab's largest growth driver over the next decade will be the water business, which generates the majority of revenue in the industrial segment. During the quarter, water revenue grew 3% versus the prior-year quarter on an organic basis, excluding currency movements.' —Seth Goldstein, Morningstar Strategist 2. Agilent Technologies (A) Morningstar Rating: 4 Stars Morningstar ESG Risk Rating Assessment: 4 Globes Price/Fair Value: 0.91 Total Return Year to Date (Month-End): (5.76) Agilent provides instruments, software and services for laboratories. ‘Agilent offers differentiated technology that is protected by various intangible assets, including patents, copyrights, and trademarks. This portfolio of intellectual property and its innovation prowess in chosen fields keep competitors from directly copying its technology.' —Julie Utterback, Morningstar Senior Equity Analyst 3. Xylem (XYL) Morningstar Rating: 3 Stars Morningstar ESG Risk Rating Assessment: 3 Globes Price/Fair Value: 1.07 Total Return Year to Date (Month-End): 7.43 ‘Xylem is one of the leading water technology companies in the world.

Grainger distributes maintenance, repair, and operations products to more than 4.5 million customers. ‘We've raised our fair value estimate for narrow-moat-rated Grainger by 12% to $660 per share as we've become more confident of the firm's ability to maintain long-term operating margin above 14%. Even so, the current stock price remains well above our revised fair value estimate.' ‘Our confidence (of a narrow moat) is rooted in Grainger's ability to fend off competitive pressures from both new and existing players in the maintenance, repair, and operations market.' —Brian Bernard, Morningstar Senior Director 5.

(2) The second article today reviews a company that is an old favorite of ethical and sustainable investors. The article is titled Buy First Solar Stock on the Dip. Solar Energy Will Be Too Good an Opportunity for President-Elect Trump to Pass Up. It's by James Brumley and found on fool.com. Here are a few of his comments on First Solar stock. “First Solar (FSLR) Investors suspect pro-oil President-elect Donald Trump could also prove unsupportive of renewable energy. In fact, most clean energy stocks are down since his Nov. 5 election on this very worry. First Solar has been no exception to the industrywide sell-off. This weakness, however, is also a buying opportunity for anyone interested in owning a piece of the solar panel maker, or in adding exposure to the solar industry as a whole. The solar power movement is too big and too well-developed for Donald Trump to bring to a halt now. First Solar is also well-positioned to sidestep one of the few meaningful actions the president-elect could take to disrupt the solar industry's growth. Solar is just too competitive to stop now Data gathered by Wood Mackenzie and reported by the U.S. Department of Energy indicates that utility-scale solar power is now in line with the cost of natural gas and coal-fired power… The irony? Largely because it's the cheapest means of adding utility-scale power production there, solar is growing like wildfire in several states like Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas that picked Trump to be president during the recently ended election cycle. To the extent voters picked Trump for economic reasons, they'll certainly appreciate cheaper electricity and its positive impact on the economy. The 2022 passage of the Inflation Reduction Act is admittedly fueling much of this growth, by offering taxpayers a tax credit of up to 30% of the cost of a solar power system. The IRA also incentivizes utility-scale solar power projects as well as the manufacturing of solar panels themselves… But tariffs? While unspecific as well as far from being certain (Trump argues the mere threat of tariffs is enough), First Solar is mostly immune to their impact anyway. Although the company requires some imported materials that may be subject to such tariffs, it's an American manufacturer mostly serving the North American market, where the company believes over 90% of its immediate revenue opportunities await… Data source: StockAnalysis.com. Chart by author. Give at least partial credit for this brewing growth to First Solar's Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) photovoltaic panels. Although they make its design and production processes more complicated and more costly than that of more conventional silicon panels, this technology proves more durable while at the same time delivering more power. Utility-scale buyers are increasingly seeing these high-performance panels as an investment rather than an expense, as they further lower the effective per-kilowatt cost of solar power… The market's overestimating the risk, and underestimating First Solar Now all of a sudden First Solar's stumble since early November and its much bigger 37% pullback from June's peak looks like an entry opportunity. The analyst community agrees, anyway. Undeterred by political rhetoric and handwringing, most of them still consider First Solar stock a strong buy, sporting a consensus price target of $280.79. That's almost 50% above the stock's present price.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Consider These Top ESG Stocks! (3) This next article, though from Australia, might interest many investors outside of that wonderful country. It's titled The Ethical Investor: These three ESG award-winning ASX companies show how it's done. It's by Eddy Sunarto found on ntnews.com.au. Here are some of what Mr. Sunarto says about his picks. “1. Orica (ASX:ORI) was named Australia's most sustainable company in the 2024 Australian Financial Review Sustainability Leaders awards, taking home top honours for its significant environmental impact. The company, a global leader in commercial explosives, was recognised for its groundbreaking emissions abatement project at its Kooragang Island plant near Newcastle, NSW. This project is the largest of its kind in the Australian chemicals sector, reducing emissions by 45% at the site and cutting national chemical industry emissions by 11%... The judges believe Orica's efforts have not only addressed environmental challenges but have also driven economic growth, injecting millions into the local economy while future-proofing critical manufacturing capabilities for industries such as mining, agriculture and healthcare. The company's commitment to sustainability is also reflected in its ambitious climate targets, aiming for net zero emissions by 2050. 2. Sims Metal Management (ASX:SGM) an Australian-based global recycling company with a 106-year history, was named the most sustainable corporation of 2024 by Corporate Knights, topping its Global 100 list. Known for its role in the circular economy, Sims has been integral in reducing carbon emissions by recycling metals like steel, copper, and aluminium – which are crucial in industries like electric vehicles, wind turbines and solar panels. In 2023 alone, the company's efforts saved 13 million tonnes of CO₂, equivalent to removing nearly three million cars from the road, according to its reports. Sims' approach to sustainability extends beyond recycling, with ambitious goals to transition to renewable energy in its operations by 2025 and achieve net-zero emissions by 2050… The company is investing in advanced technologies, like automated sorting systems and AI robots, to improve the efficiency of its recycling processes. Although these innovations may not always attract the same attention as large renewable energy projects, CEO Stephen Mikkelsen said that metal recycling plays a vital role in decarbonising industries and contributing to a sustainable future. 3. Australian Vintage (ASX:AVG) won the 2024 Global Drinks Intel ESG Award for Sustainable Wine Producer, which was announced in September. The award recognised the company's strong commitment to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles, despite current challenges within the Australian wine industry. The company had earlier achieved B Corp certification in February, making it one of only three Australian wine companies with this status. Australian Vintage's ESG strategy focuses on three key pillars: 'Thriving People', 'Nurture Nature', and 'Meaningful Growth'. The company said all these are supported by measurable, verifiable performance… The judges praised Australian Vintage for not just making ESG commitments, but for quantifying and achieving real, impactful results.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Additional Articles of Interest 1.

Major changes to the Dow Jones you should know about! The Dow Jones has changed again as Nvidia (NVDA) replaced Intel (INTC) and Sherwin-Williams (SHW) replaced Dow Inc. (DOW). The most recent change in the Dow Jones came on February 26th when Amazon (AMZN) replaced Walgreens (WBA). With the addition of Nvidia, much of the Mag Seven will now be present in the Dow Jones. As I mentioned Amazon was recently added, but Apple and Microsoft have been components for many years. It seems the Dow has really lost relevance as it has trailed the S&P 500 and Nasdaq in popularity and performance. I worry adding NVDA at this point in time could be buying high and at times the committee has had poorly timed decisions. Back in August 2020 the committee ended up doing a three-company swap as they eliminated Exxon, Pfizer, and Raytheon and added Amgen, Honeywell, and Salesforce. The interesting swap was Exxon (XOM) for Salesforce (CRM) considering XOM is up close to 200% not including dividends during that time period while CRM is up just around 10% during the same timeframe. Another poor decision came back in June 2018 when the committee swapped General Electric (GE) for Walgreens (WBA). Since the switch GE is up over 180% and I don't believe that return even includes the benefit of the spinoffs GE Vernova and GE Healthcare, which would make the return even more attractive. During the same timeframe, Walgreens has had a rough time and the stock has actually fallen over 80%. While some maybe excited about the move, I wouldn't be surprised if Intel actually outperformed Nvidia over the next 5 years.    The election is over, what investors should do now! My belief is that your plan should not have a drastic change after the Trump win, but there may be small changes to keep an eye on. The first thing I would tell people is to be careful chasing proposed winners or selling potential losers this early in the game. Ultimately, we don't know exactly what policy changes he will be able to implement and we don't even know at this point who will fill his cabinet. I was bullish on financials before the Trump win, but now that he will be entering office the group will likely benefit from a more relaxed regulatory environment compared to the current administration. Regional banks in particular look like they could be big beneficiaries, but be careful as many already had a big first day move after the election results. I was somewhat surprised to see big tech as a big winner as well, but it seems in today's world everything is good for big tech. If you have been following us, you know we are skeptical of many of these big tech companies due to excessive valuations and frankly I just don't see how a Trump presidency would be overly positive for the group. Especially considering both Trump and VP elect JD Vance have been critical of the group in the past. I would not be surprised to see continued regulatory pressure for some of these companies even after the change in the White House. Health care is also an interesting sector with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. being a large part of the Trump campaign considering his criticisms of vaccines and the food system. While this is something to keep your eye on, I don't believe the group is completely doomed and in fact you could find some opportunities if stock prices continue to be pressured. Green energy is also in the cross hairs and many of these companies saw large declines after the results. While this may be an area of concern if the Inflation Reduction Act is repealed, I believe investors may be able to find some good opportunities if these businesses can maintain profits especially considering our need for more energy. At this point in time, I would wait for more clarity on that space as changes to tax credits could totally disrupt the current earnings picture for many of these businesses. Overall, you may be excited or disappointed with the results, but ultimately the strategy of investing in good quality companies at fair prices over the long term should not change!   Do you think you will be able to retire when the time comes? At Wilsey Asset Management we continue to work very hard to encourage people to invest for retirement and also to invest wisely so they can retire at a reasonable age. What is a reasonable age? Most would say 65 but in recent surveys the average age is 62, that's a surprise to me. What is also a surprise is that in 2002 the average age of retirement was 59, and in 1991 it was 57. Could it be because people are living longer and are getting bored in retirement for 20 years or longer? I'm not sure of the reason why but it seems like we have to work a little bit harder based on a survey from New York Life that says 22% of retirees think they may never be able to retire. I have often said getting old is not that great but getting old and not having a good investment portfolio, well that can be devastating. Be sure you are taking advantage of workplace retirement plans, IRAs, or even investing in a tax advantaged brokerage account.   Is Your Social Security Taxable? Social Security benefits are taxable, but they are not treated like any other source of income. Currently there are only 9 states that tax Social Security: Colorado, Connecticut, Minnesota, Montana, New Mexico, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont, and West Virginia. The remaining states do not tax it so the majority of Americans do not need to report it on their state returns. Since this income does not take up any room in state tax brackets, it is much easier to keep taxable income lower in retirement at the state level. On the federal level, between 0% and 85% of Social Security benefits is reportable as income, so at least 15% is tax free. The lower someone's income is in retirement, the greater chance that a larger portion of their Social Security will be tax free. The ratio of taxable to non-taxable benefits is based on “combined” income which is a Social Security Administration term that includes ½ of Social Security benefits plus all remaining income sources. If a married couple's combined income is less than $32,000, none of their benefits are taxable. If combined income is between $32,000 and $44,000, up to 50% of benefits are taxable, and if combined income is greater than $44,000 then up to 85% of benefits are taxable. If these parameters seem low, that is because they were created in 1983 and have not been indexed for inflation. In the 80's, $32,000 and $44,000 was a relatively high level of retirement income so most people did not have to pay taxes on it. Over the last 4 decades as income levels have naturally risen due to inflation, more and more recipients are forced to pay taxes on their benefits. It is unfortunate that Social Security is taxable at all because it used to be tax free prior to 1983. Now we are taxed in retirement when we receive it, and we are taxed on the income we earn that is used to pay into Social Security while we are working resulting in double taxation. It is possible to structure retirement income in a way that reduces the taxation on Social Security, but it is getting increasingly harder to do so.   Companies Discussed: First Solar, Inc. (FSLR), Five Below, Inc. (FIVE) & Sherwin-Williams Company (SHW)

Now what would a podcast episode be without an article on solar power companies? So here it is titled These 3 Companies Are the Solar Power Leaders, But Should You Invest in Them? By Jordan Chussler and found on 247wallst.com. Here is some of what Mr. Chussler says in his article. “1. First Solar Inc. (NASDAQ: FSLR) has amassed an impressive $21.98 billion market cap and is considered by many to be the solar industry leader. The company manufactures solar panels, but also provides utility-scale photovoltaic power plants while also provides support services like financing, construction, maintenance and end-of-life panel recycling programs… In the second quarter of 2024, First Solar beat earnings forecasts for the fifth consecutive quarter by posting earnings per share (EPS) of $3.25 versus analysts' expectations of $2.70. The company also beat on revenue by reporting $1.01 billion versus analysts' expectations of $939.71 million… Analysts at the Wall Street Journal give First Solar's stock a median, one-year price target of $286. Shares are currently trading for $205.36, meaning, the stock is expected to have strong upside potential of 39.26% over the next 12 months.  2. Enphase Energy Inc. (NASDAQ: ENPH) is a clean energy technology company with a $13.95 billion market cap that specializes in the development and manufacturing of solar micro-inverters and battery storage systems… Since beating earnings forecasts during the third quarter of 2023, Enphase has missed for the past three consecutive quarters, posting a disappointing EPS of 43 cents in the second quarter of 2024 versus analysts' expectations of 49 cents… Shares of Enphase are currently trading around $112, but one-year price targets are incredibly spread out. The Wall Street Journal‘s analysts give a median price target of $130, but a high-end target of $170 and a low-end target of just $45.82.  3. Sunrun Inc. (NASDAQ: RUN) has the smallest market cap of all three companies, with just $3.8 billion. The San Francisco-based company provides photovoltaic systems and battery energy storage solutions primarily for a residential customer base.   Sunrun shocked Wall Street in the second quarter of 2024 by posting an EPS of 55 cents versus analysts' expectations of -33 cents in earnings. That was the first quarter since Q2 2023 that the company posted a positive EPS… Currently trading at $18.17, Wall Street Journal analysts give shares of Sunrun a median, one-year price target of $20, but a high-end target of $38 and a low-end target of just $7.78.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Ending Comment These are my top news stories with their stock and fund tips for this podcast “Great Sustainable Food Stocks, Plus…” Please click the like and subscribe buttons wherever you download or listen to this podcast.

This article briefly explains Shariah-based investing and the ethical stocks favored by the article's authors. It's titled Top 10 Shariah Compliant Stocks by Market Cap. Author(s) not mentioned, but found on amalinvest.com. Here are some quotes. “Islamic finance has grown significantly in recent years, with more investors seeking stocks that align with Shariah principles. Let's explore the top 10 Shariah compliant stocks by market capitalization, examining what makes them attractive to ethical investors and how they stack up in the global market… Shariah law prohibits investment in companies involved in certain activities, such as alcohol, gambling, pork products, and conventional financial services. Additionally, there are financial ratios that companies must meet to be considered compliant. Compliance vs. Halal It's crucial to note that ‘Shariah compliant' doesn't necessarily mean ‘halal.' Compliant companies may still have some activities that aren't permissible under Shariah law, but they don't exceed certain thresholds that would make them impermissible for investment. Now, let's examine our top 10 list: 1. Apple Inc. (AAPL) Compliance: Halal The tech giant Apple leads our list with an impressive market cap of $3.45 trillion. 2. NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) Compliance: Halal NVIDIA, a leader in GPU technology and AI computing, comes in second with a market cap of $3.11 trillion. Its focus on cutting-edge technology and strong financial position contribute to its Shariah compliant status. 3. Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) Compliance: Doubtful Google's parent company, Alphabet, holds the third spot. Despite its massive market cap, its compliance status is marked as doubtful. This could be due to its diverse range of services, which may include activities not fully aligned with Shariah principles. Bottom of Form 4. Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) Compliance: Doubtful E-commerce giant Amazon is fourth on our list, but also carries a doubtful compliance status. This might be related to its involvement in streaming services that could include content not aligned with Shariah principles, or its financial services offerings. 5. Meta Platforms Inc. (META) Compliance: Doubtful Facebook's parent company, Meta, rounds out our top five. Its doubtful status could be due to concerns about content moderation and potential involvement in activities not fully aligned with Shariah law. 6. Eli Lilly and Co (LLY) Compliance: Halal Eli Lilly, a pharmaceutical company, is the first non-tech firm on our list. Its focus on healthcare and strong financial position contribute to its Shariah compliant status. 7. Broadcom Inc. (AVGO) Compliance: Halal Broadcom, a designer, developer, and global supplier of semiconductor devices, maintains a Shariah compliant status due to its focus on technology and solid financials. 8. Tesla Inc. (TSLA) Compliance: Halal Electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla is Shariah compliant, likely due to its focus on sustainable transportation and energy solutions, as well as its financial structure. 9. Walmart Inc. (WMT) Compliance: Doubtful Retail giant Walmart makes the list but with a doubtful compliance status. This could be due to the sale of products not permissible under Shariah law, such as alcohol or pork products. 10. Visa Inc. (V) Compliance: Halal Rounding out our top 10 is Visa, a financial services company. Its Shariah compliant status might surprise some, but it's likely due to its business model focusing on payment processing rather than traditional banking activities.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- 3 Green ETFs With Promising Upside And Long-Term Potential Now an article from Canada. It's titled 3 Green ETFs With Promising Upside And Long-Term Potential. It's by Pierre Raymond and seen on theglobeandmail.com. Here's some of what Mr. Raymond says about his picks. “1. iShare Climate Conscious & Transition MSCI USA (USCLi) One of the key objectives of the fund is to track the performance and investment results of large and mid-cap U.S. companies that are actively contributing to the low-carbon economy transition.

Noticias Económicas y Financieras Vladimir Putin aterrizó en Beijing para una visita de Estado de dos días, donde fue recibido por el líder chino Xi Jinping con una alfombra roja y una banda militar completa. El viaje se basará en su compromiso con la relación "sin límites" que firmaron en los Juegos Olímpicos de Invierno de 2022, justo antes de la invasión a gran escala de Ucrania. A medida que Rusia se va aislando de Occidente en el escenario mundial, ha tratado de impulsar el comercio en Oriente y otros lugares, ayudando a apuntalar su economía frente a las sanciones. ¿Creía que la Reserva Federal solo dependía de los datos? Adivina otra vez. Los operadores centrados en los datos celebraron con estilo después de que el índice de precios al consumidor de abril aumentara un 0.3% respecto a marzo, disminuyendo el ritmo del +0.4% observado en los tres meses anteriores. La cifra, que significó que la inflación todavía está muy por encima del nivel del 3% sobre una base anualizada, ayudó a impulsar los índices de Wall Street a nuevos máximos históricos, con el S&P 500 $SP500 cruzando los 5.300 por primera vez en la historia. Mientras tanto, las ventas minoristas se mantuvieron estables, mientras que la actividad empresarial regional se enfrió aún más, lo que sugiere que la Reserva Federal podría flexibilizar la política monetaria antes de lo esperado. Es la temporada 13F, en la que los fondos de cobertura con al menos $100M en activos bajo gestión revelan sus tenencias. La avalancha de presentaciones arroja luz sobre lo que compraron y vendieron durante el trimestre, pero los administradores de inversiones también pueden hacer solicitudes especiales a los reguladores para mantener algunas de sus participaciones confidenciales. Berkshire Hathaway $BRK.B, centrada en seguros, acaba de revelar una de esas posiciones, revelando una participación anterior de $6.7B en Chubb $CB, y los participantes del mercado hicieron subir las acciones un 8% AH el miércoles mientras algunos buscaban copiar las selecciones exitosas de Warren Buffett. Otros aspectos destacados del 13F incluyen presentaciones de Pershing Square de Bill Ackman, Scion de Michael Burry y Appaloosa de David Tepper. AT&T $T se está asociando con ASTS SpaceMobile $ASTS para llevar conectividad a Internet satelital a teléfonos celulares. La noticia hizo que $ASTS subiera un 36% en las operaciones previas a la comercialización esta mañana, y el acuerdo de red de banda ancha espacial durará hasta 2030. Otros operadores de telecomunicaciones también se han aventurado en el mercado. T-Mobile tiene un acuerdo similar con SpaceX $SPACE, mientras que Verizon $VZ se asoció anteriormente con el Proyecto Kuiper de Amazon $AMZN para soluciones de conectividad. Apple $AAPL también ofrece servicios de emergencia de satélite a teléfono móvil en sus iPhones desde 2022. $FSLR First Solar aparece tras una investigación comercial sobre las importaciones solares asiáticas. Las emisiones de Microsoft $MSFT aumentan en medio de la creciente demanda de IA. $DIS Disney señala recortes de gastos en marketing y televisión tradicional.

In December 1948, a family of Hungarian refugees moved into the world's first home to be heated entirely by solar power.What made the Dover Sun House, in Massachusetts, United States, even more special was that it had been created by three women at a time when men dominated the fields of science and engineering.Heiress Amelia Peabody funded it, architect Eleanor Raymond designed it and biophysicist Maria Telkes created the heating system. Andrew Nemethy, who grew up in the house, tells Vicky Farncombe how it felt to live in an "elongated cheese wedge".(Photo: The Dover Sun House. Credit: Getty Images)
