UPS Completed Its Amazon Volume Pullback. Is the Turnaround Finally Working? Jeff Lewis Sun, August 9, 2026 at 1:59 PM PDT 7 min read UPS AMZN United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE: UPS ) shares surged in premarket trading on July 28 after the package-delivery company reported a second-quarter beat and raised its 2026 outlook. Revenue reached $22.83 billion, above the $21.81 billion consensus estimate, while adjusted earnings of $1.76 per share exceeded the $1.66 estimate. UPS now expects full-year revenue of approximately $91.2 billion, up from $89.7 billion, and adjusted earnings of approximately $7.22 per share. The more important development was operational. Eighteen months after announcing an accelerated reduction in lower-margin Amazon volume, UPS said it had completed the planned "glide down" and the related phase of its network reconfiguration. That did not end the Amazon relationship: Amazon had accounted for more than 13% of UPS revenue at its peak, but its contributio...

BofA points to the Eli Lilly market that could outsize the U.S. Peace Longe Sat, August 8, 2026 at 11:33 AM PDT 6 min read LLY BAC Eli Lilly ( LLY ) posted a second-quarter result strong enough to shift the debate around its stock. For months, the debate centered on one worry: a slow start for its new obesity pill. That worry did not disappear in the second quarter, but it stopped driving the conversation. Bank of America came out of the earnings call pointing to a different number. The bank thinks the obesity market outside the United States could eventually surpass U.S. sales of the same drugs. For anyone holding LLY or considering it, that international call is worth a closer look. Why Bank of America raised its Eli Lilly price target after the quarter Bank of America lifted its price objective on Eli Lilly (LLY) to $1,344 from $1,334 , according to a BofA Global Research report shared with me. The bank kept its math simple, applying an unchanged 28.5 times multiple to its updated ...

Israel rejects Trump's 15-point plan for Gaza, Netanyahu says

Image
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu restated his rejection of U.S. President Donald Trump's latest Gaza plan in televised remarks to his right-wing government on Sunday, even as Israel's military has effectively halted attacks in the territory under pressure from the U.S. Netanyahu is in campaign mode as he seeks re-election at a vote due on Oct. 27 but is caught between far-right ministers angered by concessions in Gaza and his key military backer, Trump, who wants progress toward ending the conflict there with a new 15-point peace plan. Israel has scaled back attacks in Gaza since Monday, when Nikolay Mladenov, the Gaza envoy for Trump's Board of Peace that oversees the Gaza ceasefire, met with Netanyahu. A source familiar with Israel's position said it had agreed that the military would only act against what it perceives as immediate threats in Gaza and no longer carry out targeted assassinations as it had been doing on a near-daily basis. Trump announced l...

Abel puts a big chunk of Berkshire's cash to work

Image
(This is the Warren Buffett Watch newsletter, news and analysis on all things Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway. You can sign up here to receive it every Friday evening in your inbox.) In his second quarter as the new CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, Greg Abel did some serious spending. As a result, the company's still huge cash reserves declined significantly for the first time since early 2022. Saturday morning's financial report for the three months ending June 30 shows Berkshire had $365.5 billion on hand, a reduction of 8.0% from its record high $397.4 billion as of March 31. Excluding BNSF's cash and adjusting for Treasury bills purchased but not yet paid for, a metric favored by Berkshire, the company's cash declined 3.8% to $359.2 billion. Part of that spending was for $4.5 billion of Berkshire share buybacks. The repurchasing came in below the low end of Barron's rough estimate of $5 billion to $11 billion and is less than UBS analyst Brian Meredith...

Saudi Aramco extinguishes fire at refinery as Houthis claim responsibility

Image
Firefighters extinguished a blaze at a refinery belonging to Saudi Arabian oil giant Aramco early Sunday, the country's government said. Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen reportedly claimed responsibility for attacking the facility. "The competent authorities are completing the necessary procedures to deal with the incident" at the Saudi Aramco refinery in Jazan, Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Energy said in a statement on X, adding that no one was injured. The statement did not say what caused the fire. Iran-backed Houthis reportedly said they carried out a drone strike on the facility. "Yemen's Armed Forces said they hit Saudi Arabia's Aramco refinery in Jizan on Sunday, describing the drone strike as precise and carried out in response to Saudi drone violations of Yemeni airspace," Iranian state-backed news agency Mehr said in a post on X. CNBC has not independently verified the claim. The Houthis have claimed responsibility for a number of attacks ...

JPMorgan's $1.5 Trillion Initiative to Finance U.S. Shipbuilding and Defense Could Be a Tailwind for Industrial and Defense Stocks Courtney Carlsen, The Motley Fool Sat, August 8, 2026 at 1:25 AM PDT 4 min read JPM NVDA JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM) has launched a 10-year, $1.5 trillion Security and Resilience Initiative to finance and invest in industries crucial to U.S. national security, supply chain independence, and infrastructure. The bank looks to invest in a range of industries, including critical minerals, robotics, energy, and defense. JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon stated, "It has become painfully clear that the United States has allowed itself to become too reliant on unreliable sources of critical minerals, products, and manufacturing -- all of which are essential for our national security."

Intel Quashed Its Dividend in 2024. Now the Stock's Up 389% and Investors Want It Back. Rick Orford Fri, August 7, 2026 at 4:00 PM PDT 5 min read INTC NVDA AMD AAPL An Intel sign out front of a corporate office by wolterke via Adobe Stock Dividend tech stocks are a rare breed. I mean, technically NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) and Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) pay dividends, but the yields barely reach 1%. That's why finding a decent tech company that pays reasonable yields while offering ample room for capital growth is like finding a golden needle in a haystack. And a few short years ago, Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) fit that description to a T. The company paid yields that averaged around 2% for more than three decades and increased payouts for eight straight years. Even better, it was at the very top of the semiconductor industry. In fact, back then, AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) and NVIDIA - yes, that NVIDIA - were playing catch-up to Intel for decades. More News from Barchart Dear Analog Devices Stock Fans, ...

Myspace eyes comeback as an an 'antidote' to social media fatigue — but it may be a long shot

Image
Millennials may feel a pang of nostalgia at the news of Myspace's planned revival, but analysts caution that the once-dominant social media platform faces long odds in an overcrowded market dominated by algorithm-driven feeds and short attention spans. Its owners, Tim and Chris Vanderhook, co-founders of Viant Technology, recently appeared in a documentary, "Myspace," directed by Tommy Avalone, where they teased another "relaunch" after a previous failed attempt in 2013. "We still own Myspace. We are stewards of the Myspace brand at this point, and we are going to relaunch Myspace. We're just waiting for the right time to do it," They said in the documentary . "And if that one doesn't work, we'll do it again." Myspace, co-founded in 2003 by Tom Anderson and Chris DeWolfe, was acquired by the Vanderhook brothers in 2011. The platform is remembered for its quirky interface, customizable profiles, glittering layout, and everyone...
