Beewise: 2024 CNBC Disruptor 50
  + stars: | 2024-05-14 | by ( Cnbc.Com Staff | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
Israeli agtech startup Beewise Technologies is using AI, sensor, robots and computer vision to save more honeybees as climate change has threatened their survival, leading to more than one-third of bee colonies disappearing each year and threatening food supplies. This social impact business has designed and built high-tech hives that help the bee's chances of survival, and keep it harvesting honey and pollinating crops. Honeybees pollinate $15 billion worth of crops in the U.S. each year, such as vegetables, fruits and nuts, not to mention produce honey. Beewise is not the only startup going after the growing market for commercial beekeeping pollination services, estimated by the USDA at $320 million annually. Former Disruptor BeeHero, also from Israel, is a close competitor.

Deutsche Bank lifted its price target on Oracle shares to $150 from $135, noting CEO Safra Catz reiterated fiscal 2026 guidance and strong cloud infrastructure results.

Oracle shares slide as revenue misses estimates

Larry Ellison, co-founder and executive chairman of Oracle Corp., speaks during the Oracle OpenWorld conference in San Francisco on Oct. 22, 2018. Oracle shares dropped more than 9% in extended trading Monday after the software company reported fiscal second-quarter revenue and quarterly revenue guidance that fell short of Wall Street expectations. Analysts polled by LSEG had predicted $1.37 in adjusted earnings per share and $13.34 billion in revenue, which implies 7.6% revenue growth. "We did not bring up as much capacity as we could have used this past quarter," Oracle CEO Safra Catz said on the call. OCI is the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, the company's answer to Microsoft Azure and the market-leading Amazon Web Services.

The multi-year deal will ultimately give Microsoft access to more of Nvidia 's (NVDA) cutting-edge AI chips, which have been in short supply since the launch of OpenAI's ChatGPT last year intensified investments in AI technology. Nvidia is the world's dominant AI chipmaker, and its processors are housed in data centers operated by Oracle, Microsoft and other cloud-computing firms. In forging close ties with Nvidia, Oracle has made its cloud-computing operations more competitive relative to larger providers like Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft and Alphabet (GOOGL). The latest Oracle-Microsoft agreement also carries positive implications for Nvidia, further illustrating just how much demand there is for Nvidia's AI chips.

ReutersAny possible escalation of the Israel-Hamas war poses a major risk to the global economy, driving up energy prices and disrupting key trade routes, economists have warned. Israel's subsequent bombardment of Gaza in a bid to eliminate Hamas has increased the risk of a spillover to the wider Middle East region. The events in recent days have deepened the greatest fear among economists, that the conflict engulfs the region and begins to pose a long-term threat to global energy and trade infrastructure. Back then oil prices gained 30% in a matter of two weeks before settling at around 15% above pre-war levels," said J. Safra Sarasin Equity Strategist Wolf von Rotberg. "You choke off those points and you create major disruption not just to oil prices, but the whole supply chain of the world for energy and other goods as well."

Enter the Swiss franc, a longstanding safe haven asset that just hit its highest level against the euro since 2015 , standing tall as its traditional rivals lose appeal. Other than U.S. dollar cash, only the Swiss franc and gold remained as options, Ielpo said. The Swiss franc has rallied over 3% against the yen this month. Reuters GraphicsUNCERTAIN WORLDSince the Oct.7 Hamas attacks in Israel, the Swiss franc -- also referred to as the Swissie -- has rallied roughly 2% against the dollar.

Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York City, U.S., September 11, 2023. U.S. producer prices increased more than expected in September amid higher costs for energy products, but underlying inflation pressures at the factory gate continued to moderate. Yield on the benchmark 10-year notes fell to a roughly two-week low as prices rose on safe-haven flows due to fighting in the Middle East that has persisted for a fifth straight day. Advancing issues outnumbered decliners for a 1.51-to-1 ratio on the NYSE, while declining issues outnumbered advancers for a 1.10-to-1 ratio on the Nasdaq. The S&P index recorded 11 new 52-week highs and seven new lows, while the Nasdaq recorded 38 new highs and 124 new lows.

Following Tuesday's trade, Jim Cramer's Charitable Trust will own 575 shares of ORCL, increasing its weighting in the portfolio to 2.17% from 1.91%. And given the market will likely soon be oversold, according to the S & P 500 Short Range Oscillator , we are looking to put our cash to work — and are buying shares of Oracle into weakness. Oracle stock pulled back earlier in the month after the company missed on quarterly revenue estimates and provided an outlook that failed to live up to lofty expectations. And in a market concerned about the impact of higher interest rates, we think buying some 'GARP-y' names on weakness makes sense.

Here's a rapid-fire update on all stocks in Jim Cramer's Charitable Trust, the portfolio we use for the CNBC Investing Club. But for investors who haven't bought into its steep pullback, it's reasonable to buy some shares at current levels around $146.50 each. Unless you believe inflation is going to keep raging, making Microsoft's price-to-earnings multiple too high, then this stock is a buy. Nvidia (NVDA): Investors who don't own Nvidia yet should use its recent weakness to start a position, Jim said. Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD): We decided to buy additional Pioneer shares Thursday as the stock fell more than 2%.

In an interview with CNBC's Jim Cramer, Oracle CEO Safra Catz, expounded on the enterprise software company's cloud business, and noted that the company is booking billion-dollar deals. Oracle saw its stock fall 12%, its steepest drop since 2002, after it reported first-quarter earnings last week and gave weaker-than-expected guidance for its second quarter. The company recently announced it would be putting its database hardware inside the data centers of Microsoft 's cloud unit Azure. "We're just rolling out and filling those data centers and, [it] costs a lot.

Christine Lagarde, president of the European Central Bank (ECB), at a rates decision news conference in Frankfurt, Germany, on Thursday, Sept. 14, 2023. The ECB raised interest rates again, acting for the 10th consecutive time to choke inflation out of the euro zone's increasingly feeble economy. The European Central Bank last week signaled that its Governing Council feels rates may have got there. Federal ReserveFed Chair Jerome Powell made clear last month that further hikes were on the table, and the central bank is deeply concerned about inflation experiencing a fresh acceleration if financial conditions ease. The consumer price index rose at its fastest monthly rate this year in August, mainly driven by energy prices, and was 3.7% year-on-year.

Oracle shares plummeted 12% on Tuesday, their steepest drop in over two decades, after the software maker reported disappointing revenue and issued weaker-than-expected guidance. For the current quarter, Oracle said revenue will increase 5% to 7%, falling short of the 8% average analyst estimate. Revenue in Oracle's cloud services and license support segment rose 13% from a year earlier, topping StreetAccount's consensus of $9.44 billion. But sales in the cloud license and on-premises license segment fell 10% to $809 million, missing estimates. Even with Tuesday's stock drop, Oracle shares are up 34% year to date, beating the S&P 500, which is up 16%.

The post-earnings sell-off in Oracle (ORCL) is overdone and a clear-cut buying opportunity, Jim Cramer said Tuesday. Still, Oracle delivered robust growth in cloud-computing services, making the stock's slide Tuesday "one of the greatest overreactions I've ever seen," according to Jim. We recognize the challenges facing other parts of Oracle's business, including Cerner and some of its traditional business software offerings. This mix enables us to view Tuesday's stock decline as another entry point, rather than a reason to walk out the door.
