These 10 Chinese stocks are powering U.S. data centers Skip Navigation Markets Business Investing Tech Politics Video Watchlist Investing Club PRO Livestream Menu While the artificial intelligence race has focused largely on advanced semiconductors, a slew of mainland China-listed companies produce many of the parts needed to make data centers work. "The United States relies on Chinese firms for almost 30% of its imports of AI-related products," Michael Hirson and Houze Song at 22V Research wrote in a June 21 report, published in partnership with Analyst Hub Securities. "China lacks the capacity to make advanced chips at scale but plays a central role in the less sexy parts of the data center supply chain, including energy storage, transformers, critical minerals, and chemicals," the analysts said. "This quiet story is becoming increasingly important for investors to monitor." AI-related exports have accounted for about half the growth in China's over...

Image source, Qantas Image caption, The non-stop London to Sydney flight would enter new frontiers in aviation By Rachel Clun , Osmond Chia , Business reporters and Kris Bramwell Published 27 June 2026 On a stage at the Airbus headquarters in Toulouse, the chief executive of Australian airline Qantas declares: "The tyranny of distance has finally been conquered". Vanessa Hudson was in the French city last week to announce the world's first 20-plus hour flight route. The airline first flew what it named the Kangaroo route between London and Sydney in 1947. At the time, it was an odyssey spanning seven stops and four days. Those stops have been gradually reduced, with Qantas now stopping only once, in Singapore, on the way through. But 80 years after that 1940s venture, the first non-stop flight between the two cities is set to take off from October 2027. Using specially designed ultra-long-haul Airbus planes, Qantas expects to shave about four hours off the current journe...

VOO vs. SPY: Which Popular S&P 500 ETF Is the Better Buy? Andy Gould, The Motley Fool Sun, June 28, 2026 at 10:23 AM PDT 4 min read VOO SPY ^GSPC The choice between the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (NYSEMKT:VOO) and the State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSEMKT:SPY) often comes down to cost for long-term investors.

Ten years ago, a record 17.6 million cars, trucks and SUVs were sold in the U.S. Some forecasts say the country might not come close to that number again. Analysts at consulting firm Bain & Company said several signs indicate the market is about to shrink even more. Falling birth rates, behavioral changes, high car prices and a growing array of alternatives could drive sales down by more than 2 million units by 2040, according to their analysis. These indications point to a future where automakers fiercely compete for a shrinking number of customers, said Mark Gottfredson, a partner at Bain & Company. The auto industry has historically depended on an annual 1% growth rate that tracks the increase of the overall population, Gottfredson said. But all over the world, government statistics show population growth has slowed, and some countries are already seeing declines. "It is the perfect storm, isn't it," Gottfredson said. "It starts with the population declin...

A helicopter belonging to Saudi oil giant Aramco crashed on Sunday in Ras Tanura on Saudi Arabia's eastern coast west of the Strait of Hormuz , killing 14 nationals, the state news agency reported, adding that the cause was unknown. Aramco had resumed crude oil loadings on Friday at its Ras Tanura terminal in the Gulf after they were halted for nearly four months. "Investigations are under way, with the participation of relevant authorities, to determine the causes of the helicopter crash," the state news agency added. Saudi Arabia, the world's biggest oil exporter, has joined a rush to move cargoes after Middle East producers ramped up oil and gas output and exports ahead of an interim deal to halt the war between the United States and Iran. 🔥 EXCLUSIVE PARTNER OFFER Retro R36S Handheld Video Game Console 3.5 Inch IPS Screen 128GB Preloaded Games Portable Pocket Player Linux System Special Price ...

President Donald Trump again threatened Iran on Sunday with annihilation following U.S. attacks on Iranian military targets in retaliation for Tehran's latest strikes on shipping in the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz. Iran's neighbors, Kuwait and Bahrain, reported incoming missiles and drones overnight. "United States aircraft just struck Iranian missile and drone storage locations, and coastal radar sites, for violating the Cease Fire Agreement, AGAIN!," Trump wrote on Truth Social. The U.S. military attacked a number of Iranian targets after a commercial tanker in the Strait of Hormuz was reported to have been struck by a projectile on Saturday. The attacks were the latest escalation of tensions between the two countries in recent days, following an interim agreement meant to bring an end to hostilities in the region. U.S. Central Command said early Sunday that fighter jets struck 10 Iranian military targets in and near the Strait of Hormuz in retaliation for...

Liquidity is returning selectively to APAC private markets Ansel Tan Fri, June 26, 2026 at 3:41 PM PDT 2 min read The first half of 2026 has brought improving liquidity to private markets in the Asia-Pacific region, but the recovery has not been evenly distributed. According to PitchBook's 2026 APAC Private Capital Outlook: Midyear Update , exit values have risen across both PE and VC. At the same time, distribution activity has recovered from recent lows, while fundraising has begun to stabilize, albeit primarily among larger, more established managers. Together, these trends suggest capital is starting to move through the ecosystem more freely than it has in several years. But the improvement has been highly selective. Both PE- and VC-backed exit values increased significantly during the first half of 2026, but exit counts declined across both asset classes as the median PE exit size nearly doubled to $319 million from $169 million in 2025. Rather than a broad reopening of liqui...

Beverage brands are cashing in on the growing demand for functional drinks among younger, health-conscious consumers by introducing increasingly innovative offerings, including protein-boosted coffees and CBD-infused sodas. The $160 billion global functional drinks market has become an increasingly lucrative category, encompassing multipurpose drinks that claim to promise taste and enjoyment alongside wellness benefits, as consumers look for convenient ways to meet their health targets. "Functional beverages are beverages that are going to provide an outcome," Sally Lyons Wyatt, global executive vice president and chief advisor of consumer goods and food services at consumer insights firm Circana, told CNBC. "Convenience is definitely one factor, but it is also this quest to live longer, healthier...do you want to drink a beverage that's just there, or do you want the beverage to work harder for you?" Around 75% of millennials and 80% of Gen Zers consume functi...
