Amazon Web Services is investing over $500 million in nuclear power, announcing three projects from Virginia to Washington State. Amazon is the latest large tech company to buy into nuclear power to fuel the growing demands from data centers. "Amazon and X-energy are poised to define the future of advanced nuclear energy in the commercial marketplace," said X-energy CEO J. Clay Sell. Last spring, AWS invested in a nuclear energy project with Talen Energy , signing an agreement to purchase nuclear power from the company's existing Susquehanna Steam Electric Station, a nuclear power station in Salem Township, Pennsylvania. AWS also purchased the adjacent, nuclear-powered data center campus from Talen for $650 million.

The S & P 500 continues to make new highs, and volatility continues to decline. First, the S & P 500 has logged just two absolute 1% moves since Sept. 19, which is nearly a month's worth of trading. In fact, 114 S & P 500 stocks made new 52-week highs on Tuesday, which was the first time we've had over 100 since 7/16/24. With the day's opening and close both being higher and lower than the prior session's, this created a bearish engulfing pattern. The bottom line is that the S & P 500 and dozens of its holdings have built up substantial cushions by strongly coming back from the August lows.

However, stocks don't usually climb in a straight line, and many of these names are showing signs of exhaustion after a significant rally. This time, I'm introducing a new indicator for my trade setup: the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence). In the case of BABA, the blue line (the MACD line) is crossing below the yellow line (the signal line). The trade To capitalize on a pullback in BABA, I'm using a trade structure called a "bear put spread." For example, if BABA is trading at $102, I would buy a $103 put (higher strike) and sell a $101 put (lower strike) to complete the trade setup.

The AI trade is powering ahead as the markets are seeing a rotation back into the semiconductor, hardware and software companies that are driving the revolution. One industrial company on my radar — that I don't yet have a position in — is Vertiv (VRT) . The company provides liquid cooling systems for data centers powering AI. I know it's a wide zone, but consider the percentage gain this stock has experienced in the past 2 years.

World Liberty Financial is separate and apart from Trump Media & Technology Group , the parent company of social media platform Truth Social. Trump Media, known by ticker symbol DJT, started trading in March, after going public through a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC). On Tuesday, the former president and current Republican nominee aims to launch WLFI, the token accompanying his new crypto project called World Liberty Financial. Trump owns about 57% of DJT's outstanding shares, but his potential control over World Liberty Financial is more opaque. Folkman added that WLF would publish the "long-awaited" roadmap for the project on Tuesday, in tandem with the token sale.

Sharon Kim credits her social media earnings for giving her the ability to purchase a $750,000 home with her brother shortly after graduating from Parsons School of Design in 2023. She started her YouTube channel in 2018 when she was in high school. Although she earned around $162,000 from the channel over the course of 2022 and 2023, Kim ultimately decided to pursue a corporate career as a UX designer for one key reason: stability. Kim currently earns around $94,000 as a UX designer in New York City and maintains her YouTube channel on the side. "Something content creation gives me that corporate can't is a sense of autonomy," Kim says.

The movement in the patience-to-impatience investor pendulum for Elon Musk (and Tesla) has fully swung to impatience. I believe this initial negative reaction (down nearly 10%) is presenting a discount in Tesla (TSLA) shares and I want to use options to create short-term income while I wait for a short-term bounce. Tesla plans to introduce full self-driving (FSD) capabilities in California and Texas as early as Q1 2025, pending regulatory approvals. The trade Tesla is a stock that has become more intensely emotional as Musk is in the news daily. I want to capture the emotion in today's tape by utilizing a Risk Reversal options strategy which takes the premium I am collecting from the put option I am selling to finance and buy the call option.

Comcast CEO Brian Roberts chose Shell to replace Steve Burke as NBCUniversal CEO in 2019. Soon, Shell, 59, will be at the helm of Paramount and paired with Ellison, who has already expressed his desire to transition Paramount into a more modern media company. The 10 p.m. hourAt Paramount, Shell will be given an asset mix similar to what he oversaw at NBCUniversal — save the theme parks. Wolf's shows were also significant moneymakers for NBCUniversal, according to a person familiar with the matter. Some media analysts, such as LightShed Partners' Rich Greenfield, have argued Paramount Global should shut down Paramount+ and instead license Paramount content to other streamers with more scale.

Let's dig into what this pattern represents, and what key price level investors should be watching for in the days to come. This week's sell-off could result in the formation of the right shoulder, completing the set-up of this bullish price pattern. Further price support could emerge at the 61.8% retracement level using the March to September rally as a framework for the analysis. Note how this neckline lines up almost perfectly with the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level using the framework described above. Other Magnificent 7 stocks Interestingly enough, Alphabet is not the only Magnificent 7 name testing its 200-day moving average this week.

Options traders like to say that there are strategies that can profit if a stock rises, falls, or goes nowhere at all. Crown Holdings (CCK) , which reports earnings next week, may have the set-up we're looking for. Demand for sustainable and recyclable packaging drives growth in the beverage can market, a significant segment for Crown Holdings. In the street's view, Crown Holdings is a reasonable business at a reasonable valuation (19 price-earnings ratio). This involves purchasing the lower implied volatility, longer-dated options, and selling nearer-dated options to capitalize on accelerated decay ("theta").

Of the 175 key ETFs that we track, just one made a new all-time high on Tuesday – the iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF (IGV) . IGV, thus, was the first major technology ETF to hit new highs after a very turbulent past few months. Before Tuesday, IGV's last all-time high happened way back in November 21 (nearly three years ago), when the ETF hit an intra-day high of $89.76. For some context, while the SPDR Technology ETF (XLK) hit a low on the same day in November 202222, its snapback unfolded much more quickly. XLK hit a new all-time high way back in July 2023 and has kept going.

This price action indicates strength and suggests that the stock has found a strong base from which it can continue higher.

I am going to explore an interesting trade set-up using three exponential moving averages to identify a restaurant stock that will continue to trend downward. Looking at the one-year daily chart of Olive Garden-parent Darden Restaurants (DRI) , you'll notice the stock has faced resistance around the $175 level and is currently in a downtrend. I've highlighted several instances over the past year where the 10-day EMA crossed either above or below the 21-day EMA. The trade Building on this analysis, I'm considering a bearish strategy on DRI, using a trade structure known as a bear put spread. Adding 10 contracts to this trade risks $2500 to make $2500 and provides a robust ROI for the capital risked.

Key swing states like North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Nevada and Michigan are still experiencing a high volume of mail-in and absentee voting. That has prompted multiple lawsuits in battleground states where Republicans are suing to challenge everything from whether mail-in ballot envelopes are properly sealed to whether they are postmarked correctly. After his 2020 loss, he has railed against mail-in voting, saying this summer it “isn’t working, it’s corrupt.” But he also emphasizes that every vote matters, including early voting and absentee ballots. The Republican National Committee and Republican Party of Pennsylvania filed a lawsuit to the state’s Supreme Court, seeking to end the mail-in ballot “notice-and-cure” procedures. Mail-in ballots wait to be processed on a table at the Wake County Board of Elections in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Note that the chart below depicts S & P earnings on a logarithmic scale —S & P earnings have grown by more than ninefold since January 1991. Over the past two years, S & P earnings have grown from ~$196 "per share" to about $204, an increase of 4%, but the S & P 500 Index has risen by more than 60% over the same period.

XLE YTD mountain Energy Select Sector SPDR, YTD Oil markets are measuring the possibility of an imminent air strike by Israel on Iran's crude and energy facilities.

But to one chief investment officer, immigration policy isn't a matter of political debate — it's an economic nonnegotiable. A declining population brings with it a declining labor force.

Before this week's downside price gap, it's worth noting that Nike was testing a major resistance level into last week. To add to this "confluence of resistance," we can also see the 200-day moving average looming large, currently sitting just above $91. The weekly chart can provide some additional context as to what the recent upswing means relative to the long-term trend for Nike. The long-term trend has been decidedly negative for NKE, with price remaining below the 150-week moving average since Q2 2022. Nike also sits below a downward-sloping 40-week moving average, which is essentially the same as the 200-day moving average on the daily chart.
