Real estate stocks have been lagging the market, but here is one corner in particular where Janus Henderson sees an underappreciated opportunity. Overall, real estate stocks have started to rebound, with the S & P 500 real estate sector rallying 10% over the past month. Still, there is one area that has fared worse than many of its counterparts: industrial real estate investment trusts. The benchmark Janus uses for the overall REIT sector is the FTSE Nareit Equity REITs , which tracks commercial real estate across the U.S. "Cold storage is a specialized area within industrial that we like and where supply/demand fundamentals are also more favorable than coastal traditional industrial," Kuhl said.

“You shouldn’t assume that an electric plane is going to look like the (most successful) planes of today,” de Vries says, adding that a common misconception is that electric planes should essentially be electrified versions of the lightest regional turboprops. What you end up with is a plane that in weight proportions, for example, looks much more like old 1960s jets. Israeli-founded Eviation has flight-tested its plane, called Alice – a fully electric nine-passenger commuter plane with a range of 250 nautical miles that the company aims to put into service in 2027. “There are over 5,000 aircraft in service today in the E9X’s size category of 70 to 100 seats,” he says. If Elysian can surmount the technology and infrastructure challenges, he adds, it will then face the commercial challenge of entering a fiercely competitive market.

"One in nearly every 5 dollars spent on Ramp cards is related to flights, hotels, entertainment related to travel," Glyman said. That ultimately led Ramp to the Priceline partnership and new platform feature. The new product, called Ramp Travel, utilizes AI and automation to help streamline and simplify the process of booking and doing expenses for business travel, with Priceline providing Ramp users access to airline, hotel, and other travel inventory. The companies see an opportunity to take share from corporate travel offerings that often rely on high fees that guarantee control over where employees stay, or the carriers which travelers fly with. While a majority of Ramp customers have never raised venture capital, the average size of companies using the platform has more than doubled in the past three years, he said.
