Many small-cap stocks have limited Wall Street coverage, giving savvy investors the chance to act before everyone else catches on. But the flip side is that these businesses have increased downside risk because they lack the scale and staying power of their larger competitors.
If you own Autodesk (ADSK) or Fair Isaac (FICO), you own the same idea: software that customers keep paying more for. Fair Isaac grows by charging more for a score it already owns. Autodesk now grows partly by buying a business it did not have. Both raised guidance, and that fork makes the two raises different kinds of news.
Zscaler (ZS) has gained 48% in three months, yet trades about 43% below its 52-week high. Near $190 it costs 9.3 times sales, against 3.2 for the S&P 500. The question is which growth that price buys: the 25% reported for fiscal 2026, or the roughly 17% guided for fiscal 2027.
Cloudflare (NET) stock has gained about 45% in three months while the S&P 500 returned 2.8%, and sits at the top of its 52-week range. That price is paying for more than the growth: a business Cloudflare has only started to build, charging AI agents for the requests they send.

U.S. stocks fell as oil surged; CNN Fear & Greed slipped to 31, staying in fear. Treasury yields topped 5%, while Zscaler jumped and Corning sank.
If you own Intel (INTC) or NVIDIA, you own the same shortage. Both said the same thing at their latest reports: buyers want more compute than either can ship, and supply rather than demand is the limit. The fork is what each does about it. NVIDIA sells into the shortage and keeps most of what it collects. Intel has to build the capacity first, and it is paying for that now.
Wedbush raised its price target on Roblox but kept a neutral rating, and the stock immediately shot above that new target. Find out what the analyst said, what Roblox unveiled at its developer conference, and why the risk-reward equation still has Wall Street sitting on the sidelines.

This article is part of our monthly series where we highlight 5 large-cap, relatively safe, dividend-paying companies offering significant discounts to their historical norms. Read it here.
While most income investors debate JEPI and SCHD, three monthly-paying ETFs have quietly built yield engines that tap small-cap volatility, leveraged preferreds, and Nasdaq options in ways the popular high-yield lists keep missing.
The fee that made sense while your portfolio grew now runs against a balance you are actively spending down, and the math shifts in ways most retirees never stop to calculate.
There are notable gap-ups and gap-downs in today's session. Let's take a look at which stocks are gapping on Friday.
Caterpillar (CAT) stock returned 94% over the past twelve months, against 17.9% for the S&P 500, and its second quarter of 2026 was the first in company history above $20 billion of sales and revenues. One risk to that run is a quiet one. Caterpillar is adding factory capacity with data center power as a big driver, and analysts are asking whether that demand has staying power through 2030.

Recently, Zacks.com users have been paying close attention to KB Home (KBH). This makes it worthwhile to examine what the stock has in store.
Visa (V) trades at about $367 a share. On the last twelve months of adjusted earnings, meaning normalized net income with stock-based compensation added back, that is about 28.6 times earnings. Nobody buys a payments network expecting a bargain. The question is whether the trailing multiple tells you what you are actually paying.
If you hold Pfizer (PFE) or Zoetis (ZTS), you hold the same idea: a branded medicine becomes a standard of care and keeps earning for years, in people or in animals. That is where it stops. Pfizer is buying replacements for older drugs losing exclusivity. Zoetis is cutting its effective price to keep the franchises it has. Same bet, two opposite defenses.
Call options on Oracle are trading richer than puts ahead of earnings, a pattern that almost never happens without a reason. Whether that reason reflects genuine conviction or a quirk of derivatives flow changes everything about how to read it.
Scott Bessent declared himself the house and promised bond traders they were playing a losing hand against Washington. The bond market has been calling that bluff ever since, and the pressure is now spreading from Wall Street trading desks to homebuyers at the closing table.
Leading cryptocurrencies declined on Wednesday as investors reacted to a spike in Treasury yields and rising tensions between the U.S. and Iran.
Eli Lilly (LLY) stock has gained about 56% over the past year, moving from $722.65 to $1,123.91. Before that run the company was doing something strange. It was deliberately selling less medicine than people wanted to buy, and it kept saying so out loud.

Every AI prompt comes with a cost. For most enterprises, that means paying third-party providers every time employees use a model — without ever owning the intelligence those interactions create. Palantir Technologies Inc‘s (NASDAQ:PLTR) latest partnership with Nebius Group N.V. (NASDAQ:NBIS) suggests the company is pushing a fundamentally different idea: AI shouldn’t be a recurring subscription. It should become an asset that companies build, improve and keep. • Palantir Technologies shares are
Investing.com -- Morgan Stanley has taken a more selective stance on European semiconductor stocks, staying positive on the sector overall while adjusting ratings and price targets as the memory cycle nears a turn and valuations diverge.
Merck (MRK) has returned about 85% over the past year and at about $150 trades roughly 4% below its 52-week high. A year ago, management spent earnings calls managing fallout from a steep drop in GARDASIL sales. That problem has left the lead. What management opens with instead is a much larger claim, and it settles years from now.
Michael Saylor just broke a ten-week silence with a massive Bitcoin buy, but the timing raises an uncomfortable question about whether Strategy's comeback signals conviction or a costly mistake.

Strong US jobs data has kept the prospect of further Federal Reserve rate hikes firmly on the table, which keeps pressure on companies that rely too heavily on cheap borrowing. That is exactly why investors are paying closer attention to businesses that combine solid balance sheets with strong earnings growth potential. This article highlights three stocks from a high quality US growth list that screen well on both fronts. The three stocks in this article are just a starting sample, since the...

Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) has introduced Wan3.0, its latest artificial-intelligence video-generation model, one day after announcing a HK$80 billion ($10.2 billion) share placement to finance rising AI investment. The announcement has shed light on the central tension in the company’s strategy, which is that its AI products are becoming more capable and commercially relevant, […]
Starbucks has delivered a solid year to date gain, yet current valuation checks suggest the stock is trading at a premium to what its cash flows and market multiples imply. Both the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) intrinsic value estimate and the broader multiple based view point to Starbucks stock as overvalued on today’s assumptions. The stock is up 26.0% year to date, which leaves recent buyers paying more for each dollar of expected future cash flow than earlier in the year. Union pressure...
Paypal, the digital payments company, is laying off 251 employees at its San Jose headquarters in another round of layoffs, according to a Sep. 3 government filing.
Wells Fargo stock has delivered a strong 137.3% return over the past 3 years, yet several valuation checks still suggest the shares may trade below an internally estimated intrinsic value. With both the Excess Returns model and market multiples pointing in the same direction, the current price invites closer scrutiny of what investors are paying for the bank’s progress and plans. The 137.3% gain over 3 years signals that Wells Fargo has already rewarded patient shareholders, so any perceived...
Aon plc (NYSE:AON) agreed to acquire USI Insurance Services for $17 billion in cash, subject to downward adjustments for specified leakage since June 30, 2026. The transaction extends its U.S. middle-market expansion after the $13 billion NFP acquisition in 2024. USI generates approximately $3 billion in annual revenue. Aon plc (NYSE:AON) expects the transaction to […]
Covered-call ETFs are built to trade upside for income, so when one seems to deliver both at once, the obvious question is what the fund is hiding and whether the trade-off has simply been postponed.

The market is filled with gapping stocks in Friday's session. Let's discover which stocks are showing gap-ups and gap-downs.
High midstream yields look tempting until a payout cut wipes out a year of income, so the real question is not the yield itself but whether the cash flow behind it can actually survive a rough quarter.
Owning two or three dividend ETFs feels like extra protection, but it can quietly leave retirees paying multiple expense ratios for a nearly identical stack of stocks. Here is how the five most popular options actually differ, and why the wrong combination costs more than most people realize.

In recent months, PayPal has accelerated a multi-year restructuring, cutting hundreds of roles in India and Ireland as part of plans to simplify global operations and target at least $1.5 billion in cost savings over the next few years. Alongside these reductions, PayPal has emphasized reinvesting a significant portion of those savings into its evolution from a payments provider into a broader money management and commerce platform, with Venmo playing an important role. Next, we’ll examine...

Joby Aviation (JOBY) trades near $6.82, after falling 49% over the past twelve months while the S&P 500 returned 20.5%. The company raised its full-year revenue outlook and the shares kept sliding. The market is repricing the bill that comes before the first paying passenger in one of its own aircraft.
McDonald's shares have cratered to levels not seen in over a year, and a contrarian case is quietly building that the selloff has gone too far. Whether the golden arches reward patient buyers or keep sliding depends on a handful of execution tests playing out right now.

<p dir="ltr">The pullback in BTC and ETH looks like a straightforward risk-off move rather than anything crypto specific, tracking closely with weakness in equities and the jump in Treasury yields this week. Both assets remain up sharply for the quarter despite the drawdown, so this reads as a pullback within an uptrend rather than a trend reversal so far, though the scale of the K33 reported drop in Bitcoin's spot volume is worth watching as a sign of thinning conviction. The most actionable driver for traders is the shift in Fed rate expectations, since crypto's lack of yield makes it particularly sensitive to repricing around the September 15 to 16 meeting. Separately, and this is context from earlier in the week rather than the latest 24 hours, large exchange deposits from market maker Wintermute and an unidentified ETH whale added a layer of on-chain selling pressure that likely amplified the initial leg lower, even though deposits alone don't confirm actual selling. Together, the setup suggests further downside is likely to be geopolitics and rates driven rather than structural, with the conflict's trajectory the single most important variable for both assets in the near term.</p><p dir="ltr">---</p><p dir="ltr">Earlier:</p><ul><li><a href="https://investinglive.com/cryptocurrency/bitcoin-technicals-the-price-of-bitcoin-is-back-below-the-100-200-hour-ma-and-making-new-corrective-lows" rel="follow" target="_blank">Bitcoin technicals: The price of bitcoin is back below the 100/200 hour MA and making new corrective lows</a></li></ul><p dir="ltr">---</p><p dir="ltr"> Crypto's hot August run is cooling fast as war escalation and rising rate hike odds collide with thinning trading volume and reports of large holders moving coins to exchanges.</p><p dir="ltr">Summary:</p><ul dir="ltr"><li>Bitcoin traded in a range of roughly $76,600 to $78,000 through Tuesday and Wednesday, down around 1.5 to 2% as fresh US-Iran military strikes drove a risk-off reaction across markets.</li><li>Ethereum fell to around $2,373 to $2,400 over the same period, down roughly 2 to 2.5%, with about $115 million in long positions liquidated within an hour during the sharpest part of the move, according to Coinglass.</li><li>Both assets remain up sharply for the quarter, with Ether having gained 33% in August and 56% for the quarter as of recent reporting, meaning the current move looks like a pullback within an uptrend rather than a reversal so far.</li><li>K33 reported that Bitcoin's average daily spot volume declined 35% over the past week to $3.1 billion, a notable drop in market participation even as price has held relatively steady.</li><li>The immediate catalyst has been renewed US-Iran conflict, with US strikes targeting Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps positions including air defense, radar and mine laying capability, and Iran retaliating against US bases in the region.</li><li>CME FedWatch data showed market implied odds of a Fed rate hike at the September 15 to 16 meeting at around 66%, sharply higher than odds favoring a hold just a week earlier, adding pressure on non-yielding assets like crypto.</li><li>As additional context from earlier in the week rather than the most recent 24 hours, reports flagged large on-chain exchange deposits, including around 5,100 BTC, worth close to $400 million, from market maker Wintermute to Binance, and nearly 41,000 ETH, worth over $100 million, from a separate whale or institutional wallet, both seen as possible signals of sell side pressure even though deposits do not confirm an actual sale.</li><li>The crypto moves have closely tracked broader risk asset weakness this week, with the S&P 500 falling to its lowest level since August 4 and Treasury yields rising during the worst of the selloff.</li></ul><p dir="ltr"> Bitcoin and Ethereum extended a pullback from their strong August run this week, as renewed military escalation between the United States and Iran drove a broad risk-off reaction across financial markets and pushed expectations for a Federal Reserve rate hike higher.</p><p dir="ltr">Bitcoin traded in a range of roughly $76,600 to $78,000 through Tuesday and Wednesday, down around 1.5 to 2% as fresh US strikes against Iranian targets triggered renewed selling. Ethereum fell in tandem, dropping to around $2,373 to $2,400, a decline of roughly 2 to 2.5%, with the sharpest leg of the move accompanied by about $115 million in leveraged long positions liquidated within a single hour, according to data from Coinglass.</p><p dir="ltr">The scale of the pullback should be read against the backdrop of a very strong prior month. Ether gained 33% in August and was up 56% for the quarter as of recent reporting, meaning the current move looks more like a pause or partial retracement within an established uptrend than a reversal, at least based on the price action so far. That said, K33 flagged a notable shift in underlying market conditions, reporting that Bitcoin's average daily spot volume fell 35% over the past week to $3.1 billion, a sign that trading conviction may be thinning even where price has held up relatively well.</p><p dir="ltr">The immediate trigger for this week's weakness has been the renewed conflict between the US and Iran. US Central Command confirmed strikes against Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps targets, including air defense positions, radar systems, mine laying capability and communication sites, prompting Iranian retaliation against US military installations in the region. The pattern has closely mirrored moves across other risk assets, with the S&P 500 falling to its lowest level since August 4 during the worst of Tuesday's selloff and Treasury yields climbing as investors priced in both geopolitical risk and shifting rate expectations.</p><p dir="ltr">On the policy side, CME Group's FedWatch tool showed market implied odds of a Fed rate hike at the September 15 to 16 meeting rising to around 66%, a sharp shift from a week earlier when a hold was seen as the more likely outcome. Because Bitcoin and Ethereum do not pay yield, they are particularly sensitive to this kind of repricing, and the jump in hike odds has added a second, more structural headwind alongside the geopolitical shock.</p><p dir="ltr">Adding further context, though this relates to earlier in the week's initial escalation rather than the most recent 24 hours, reports highlighted large on-chain transfers that may have amplified selling pressure. Market maker Wintermute reportedly deposited around 5,100 BTC, worth close to $400 million, to the Binance exchange over a two day period, while a separate whale or institutional wallet moved nearly 41,000 ETH, worth more than $100 million, to exchanges according to on-chain tracker Lookonchain. Exchange deposits of this kind do not confirm that coins were actually sold, but they are widely monitored by traders as a leading indicator of potential sell side flow, and their timing alongside the initial leg of this week's selloff suggests they may have contributed to the depth of the move.</p><p dir="ltr">Taken together, the current setup points to a market being driven primarily by external macro and geopolitical forces rather than crypto specific developments. With both the trajectory of the US-Iran conflict and the outcome of this month's Fed meeting still unresolved, further volatility in Bitcoin and Ethereum in the days ahead looks likely to track those two variables closely.</p><p dir="ltr"></p> This article was written by Eamonn Sheridan at investinglive.com.

ONEOK stock has delivered strong multi year gains, yet the current valuation picture is more nuanced, with recent returns and the broader checks not lining up as a simple bargain or an obvious stretch. Over the past 5 years, ONEOK has returned 133.5%, which puts more focus on whether the current price already reflects much of the progress investors have been paying for. For a pipeline and midstream focused business like ONEOK, expectations for steady cash generation can support the current...

Recent short-term share price weakness adds another consideration for investors who are weighing what they are paying today against what the current fundamentals can reasonably support. Over the past 5 years, TJX Companies has returned about 104.4%, which...
