Shelter (2026) came out in theaters on January 30 and sounded like a Jason Statham movie, but the movie itself is quieter than the ads say it is. The movie, directed by Ric Roman Waugh and starring Jason Statham, takes place on a remote Scottish island, where the action hero has to deal with wind-blown cliffs and gray Atlantic water instead of city skylines. The first few scenes stay on the coast, where there is cold stone, a restless sea, and a lone house that looks like a stubborn thought. Statham plays Mason, who lives alone and does things like…

Intu stock doesn’t usually cause drama. This is not a meme stock. It isn’t a biotech that shoots for the moon. For years, it has quietly grown, riding on the steady hum of small businesses filing taxes and freelancers reconciling receipts at their kitchen tables. But after the latest earnings report, there was something different in the air when I watched the tape. The stock price of Intuit (INTU) recently went over $409 after the company reported second-quarter sales of $4.65 billion, a 17% increase from the same time last year. Earnings per share were better than expected. It looked…

Technically speaking, anthropogenic stock does not exist, at least not in the sense that most investors anticipate. No opening bell is ringing at the NYSE, and no ticker is scrolling across CNBC. Nevertheless, not many businesses have been able to influence public markets as effectively as Anthropic has in the last month. Shares of IBM fell precipitously last week when Anthropic revealed new features for its Claude AI system, especially the ability to decipher and simplify legacy COBOL code. The market value of billions vanished in a matter of hours. It felt odd to watch the selloff unfold, as if…

The stock of WDAY seems to be stuck in a time war. On the one hand, Workday, Inc. recently reported fiscal fourth-quarter revenue of $2.53 billion, which represents a 14.5% increase from the previous year. Revenue from subscriptions increased by almost 16%. For the year, operating cash flow increased by nearly 20%. These aren’t the numbers of a retreating company.

Compared to other tech names, MELI stock has always felt a little different. It embodies the vitality of developing markets, which are loud, rapidly expanding, and sometimes chaotic. It has also been humbled recently. Despite reporting a 45% increase in revenue for the fourth quarter, shares are down about 33% from their 52-week high, trading at about $1,750. That discrepancy appears to be confusing at first glance. MercadoLibre, Inc., the company that runs the ticker, recently reported net revenue of $8.76 billion for the quarter, with a roughly 35% increase in gross merchandise volume in Brazil and Mexico. The sales…

There has been a silent identity crisis for CRM stock. Salesforce was the dominant force in cloud software for many years, transforming customer relationship management into a lucrative subscription business. Its headquarters, the shining Salesforce Tower that rises over the skyline of San Francisco, used to seem like a testament to its unrelenting expansion. The stock is currently trading at about $194, far below its peak of over $300 last year, and the atmosphere is more composed. Salesforce, Inc., the company that created the ticker, recently reported a successful quarter. Revenue increased 12% year over year to $11.2 billion in…

The stock of CRWV has been hovering on the brink of extremes. One day, it seems invincible, riding the wave of artificial intelligence alongside Microsoft and Nvidia. The next day, it’s plummeting by almost 20% in a single session, depleting its market value by billions before lunch. CoreWeave, Inc., the company that created the ticker, reported $1.57 billion in revenue for the fourth quarter, an increase of about 110% from the previous year. Normally, such growth would cause euphoria. Rather, after closing close to $97, shares fell precipitously to about $79.56. Investors focused on growing losses and a lower-than-expected revenue…

Some selloffs seem to be routine. On some days, a stock appears to fall through the floor. After management halted full-year guidance, Odd stock, or the public shares of Oddity Tech Ltd., recently closed at $11.77, down almost 50% in a single session. The decline feels more like a rupture than volatility for a company that reached a high of $79.18 in the last 12 months. The odd thing is that the quarter wasn’t all that bad. Revenue reached $152.7 million, up 23.5% from the previous year. At $0.20 per share, earnings exceeded forecasts. Despite a slight compression, gross margins…

Sometimes a stock feels like a cultural event, and other times there are stock rallies. This week, Block, Inc.’s public face, XYZ stock, experienced one of those moments. Just the numbers are shocking. After rising as much as 24% during extended trading, shares closed at $63.70, up more than 16% in a single session. It came after CEO Jack Dorsey announced the company would lay off about 4,000 workers, or nearly half of its workforce, due to the rapid advancements in artificial intelligence. Investors didn’t hesitate. They purchased. The symbolism is difficult to miss. The glass facade of Block’s Oakland…

Every morning, millions of smartphone screens still display the bright green owl from Duolingo, reminding users to practice their Japanese, French, or Spanish. However, the atmosphere on Wall Street has been less upbeat recently. Following its most recent earnings report, Duolingo’s stock fell more than 20%, reaching about $101 — a sharp decline from the company’s peak of over $540 last year. The business’s financial results weren’t bad. Recent quarters saw a more than 40% year-over-year increase in revenue, and engagement is still high. However, investors appeared to be focused on a single message from management: Duolingo is prepared to…
