Inflation is running at 3.8%. The Iran conflict is pushing energy prices higher. Markets have priced out rate cuts entirely through at least 2027. It would be easy to assume the Federal Reserve is preparing to raise interest rates. One governor just said that assumption could be wrong. She said it at a conference in…
On May 29, Bank of America reiterated its Buy rating and raised its price target to $390 from $375 for MongoDB (MDB), arguing that the company’s latest results reinforce the view that MongoDB remains a “share gainer” in the next-generation database market. BofA pointed to stronger-than-expected Atlas growth, a raised FY2027 outlook, and early traction…
Most people buy stocks the way they buy umbrellas. They want one when it is already raining and forget it the moment the sun comes out. The crowd chases what is hot and runs from what is cold, which is usually the opposite of what builds wealth over time. For about two years, one of…
Silver hit $120 an ounce at the start of 2026. It is now stuck below $75. The metal has given back more than a third of its peak value, and the debate is whether that is a buying opportunity or a warning sign. Bank of America’s answer is more complicated than either side wants to…

That’s a phrase that gets thrown around in corporate turnaround stories so often that it has almost lost meaning: “We’re moving faster.” Most of the time, it is conference room language — something that sounds good in a press release and means very little in practice. When Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan says it, he is…
While the collapse of Spirit Airlines is the most high-profile case, multiple small- and mid-size airlines have had to file for bankruptcy and in some cases shut down operations entirely since the start of the year. Earlier this week, Mexican low-cost carrier Magnicharters filed for bankruptcy protection in the First District Court for Bankruptcy Proceedings…
