Adyen Is Betting Big on Agentic AI. The Rally Could Just Be Getting Started. A close-up of the Adyen sign on an office building by StockMarketVisuals via Adobe Stock Nauman Khan Sun, June 21, 2026 at 7:00 AM PDT 4 min read ADYEN.AS Adyen N.V. (ADYEY) gave investors a fresh reason to pay attention after it unveiled Adyen Agentic, a suite of modular APIs built to help merchants sell through conversational AI platforms without rebuilding their commerce systems. Shares jumped 4.11% on Monday after the news and the move made sense because the release pushes Adyen deeper into the next phase of digital commerce, not just plain old payments. That matters because Adyen is not trying to be just a payment processor. It wants to sit closer to the whole transaction, from discovery to checkout to money movement, and that is exactly where the company is spending time and money in 2026.

The most common age for claiming Social Security is also the earliest age of eligibility. That’s according to Boston College’s Center for Retirement Research (1), which found that 26% of men and 27% of women claimed benefits at age 62 in 2023. Simply put, roughly one in four of retirees are signing up for their benefits as soon as possible.

U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced Monday he'd step down , opening the door for Britain's seventh leader in 10 years. The process to succeed him as Labour Party leader and prime minister will see a successor take the helm by September 1 at the latest, and with a new administration comes a new set of economic and fiscal policies for markets to digest. Here is what investors should know while the U.K. searches for its next leader. Andy Burnham is the favorite to succeed Starmer. The mayor of Greater Manchester won a seat in Britain's parliament in a special election last week, making him eligible for the leadership. On Monday morning, former health secretary Wes Streeting, who had been a potential rival for the premiership, endorsed Burnham, boosting the chances that he will run unopposed, which would significantly shorten the process. Burnham left parliament in 2017 to become Manchester mayor, after serving in previous Labour governments and challenging for the pa...

Alan Greenspan, the longtime Federal Reserve chairman known as "the Maestro" who became one of the most influential economic policymakers of his era and famously warned of "irrational exuberance," has died. He was 100. The influential economist died Monday at his home from complications of Parkinson's Disease, said his wife of 29 years, Andrea Mitchell, the chief Washington correspondent and chief foreign affairs correspondent for NBC News . "He was a giant of a man who helped shape the U.S. economy for decades under presidents of both parties, but was always honest in acknowledging his mistakes," Mitchell said in a statement. Greenspan was appointed Fed chairman in 1987 by President Ronald Reagan and held the position through busts and booms until retiring in 2006. His tenure was the second longest, four months short of that of William McChesney Martin, who presided over the central bank from 1951 to 1970. The Fed in a statement Monday morning said i...

AI's next bottleneck is power: Chart of the Day Jared Blikre Updated Mon, June 22, 2026 at 3:03 AM PDT 3 min read LULU The AI trade started with chips. Now it's running into the electric grid. US data center electricity demand could more than double by 2030, rising from roughly 167 terawatt-hours in 2023 to about 376 TWh by the end of the decade, according to a Yahoo Finance analysis of government and industry data. More from Yahoo Scout Why is battery storage becoming critical for AI infrastructure? How much will US data center electricity demand increase by 2030? What planned utility-scale capacity additions show the storage buildout? How is the AI trade expanding beyond traditional tech sectors? The increase alone is roughly enough electricity to power 20 million average US homes for a year and closer to 25 million to 27 million homes if total power generation grows with demand. That shift is turning power from a background cost into a frontline constraint and making batter...

(NASDAQ:RPD) features on the list of tech stocks to sell according to billionaires . Billionaire stake decreased from roughly $195.91 million in Q4 2025 to $83.70 million in Q1 2026, a drop of about $112.22 million.

China imposed fresh trade restrictions on dozens of U.S. entities on Monday, retaliating against Washington's move to add more Chinese companies to a Pentagon list of businesses it accuses of aiding Beijing's military. On Monday, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce placed 10 American industrial suppliers on its export control list, including rare earth miners MP Materials Corp and USA Rare Earth , and drone makers Teal Drones and Jaia Robotics barring exports of any dual-use items originating in China to the companies. Other companies included on the list are California-headquartered electronics manufacturer Aveox Inc, Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp, and military equipment provider Oshkosh Defense. In a separate statement Monday, the Chinese Finance Ministry excluded 46 U.S. companies, mostly defense contractors, from participating in government procurement projects. Any foreign-funded, locally registered entities associated with the excluded firms are exempted. The actio...
