Take a look at some of the names that made the list, and where Goldman sees them going forward. Goldman expects shares to have 42% upside over the next 12 months.

☆ Warner Bros. Discovery reengineers the traditional TV bundle for the streaming era
  + stars: | 2023-04-13 | by ( Oliver Darcy | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
In effect, WBD announced that it is recreating the bundle, erecting the pillars of a one-stop shop for scripted and unscripted television, movies, news and sports at a flat monthly rate. Insider Intelligence analyst Paul Verna noted to me that the WBD competitor has “resisted the temptation” to combine Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+. Instead, Verna observed that Disney is “leaning into each brand’s core strength,” though Disney does offer the ability to purchase the individual services in a bundle. But it goes without saying that Max — the product of the merger between WarnerMedia and Discovery — represents the future for WBD, which has been entrenched in the declining traditional TV business. The Max service launches May 23.

☆ Researchers who reverse-engineered Starlink to work as a backup for GPS found a security flaw in the system — using a video of tennis star Rafael Nadal — that could be exploited in Ukraine

SpaceX's Starlink signals have been long seen as a possible alternative to GPS. Researchers have succeeded in reverse-engineering the signals, MIT Technology Review reported. "The Starlink system signal is a closely guarded secret," Humphreys told MIT Technology Review. "Humphreys has done a big service to the navigation community identifying these sequences," Mark Psiaki, an aerospace professor at Virginia Tech and GPS expert told MIT Technology Review. "As time goes on and their dependence on Starlink deepens, Ukraine and its allies in the West are coming to appreciate that they have little control over Starlink and know little about it," Humphreys told MIT Technology Review.
☆ David Einhorn says he's bearish because the Fed's 'official policy is to make the stock market go down'
  + stars: | 2022-10-20 | by ( Yun Li | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Greenlight Capital's David Einhorn, who is crushing the market with double-digit returns this year, is selling stocks as the Federal Reserve continues to deflate the market with aggressive rate hikes. However, higher interest rates also discourage investments and in turn crunch supply, which is most evident in the housing market. "The most glaring area might be in housing, where higher rates lead to reduced supply despite widespread shortage," Einhorn said. That compares with a 23.9% decline for the S & P 500 during the same period as the benchmark tumbled into a bear market. Further, high short-term interest rates provide competition for gold," Einhorn said.

CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts — A longtime drug-hunting veteran is leaving one of the largest drugmakers to lead the science division at the biotech startup LifeMine Therapeutics, Insider has learned. FogPharmaThe big draw for Stahl was LifeMine's approach to discovering drugs. With its genetic-database approach, LifeMine hopes to greatly speed up how long it takes to develop fungi-derived drugs.
