Sometimes, you just make the wrong call and must admit it. Now, it is my turn to do that. Microsoft’s (NASDAQ: MSFT ) strategy for its Gaming division is far more shortsighted than I had initially believed. A new round of layoffs and studio closures undercut the division’s growth opportunities at a time when the company should be capitalizing on its successes. Four studios, with a mix of recent successes and failures under their belts, were either shuttered or dismembered in the layoffs. Today, I’ll look at the three biggest and how these layoffs undermine Microsoft’s future in the video game industry. Back in March, I wrote an article titled “MSFT Stock: Microsoft’s Gaming Strategy Is AAA.” At the time, it appeared that Microsoft had a long-term strategy in place for its Gaming division. The short of it was that, despite some relatively small job cuts at the start of the year, the division was consolidating its gains from the Activision acquisition and focusing on what mattered: The games.
The retailer’s blockbuster earnings are mostly thanks to its focus on groceries and e-commerce.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped above 40,000 for the first time as the bull market marched higher on bets that inflationary pressures would ease and interest rates would come down. The 30-stock index slid 38.62 points to 39,869.38. The index had neared the 40,000-point mark earlier this year, before a slight April pullback on worries about high interest rates knocked it back down. The rally was rekindled in May on the back of strong earnings and some soft inflation readings. The S&P 500 lost 11.05 points to 5,297.10 The NASDAQ Composite shed 44.07 points to 16,698.32. Earlier in the day, the broader market index climbed to a new record after closing above the 5,300 level for the first time ever on Wednesday, It was Walmart that led the charge above 40,000 as the worlds biggest retailer popped 6% on strong fiscal first-quarter results. Walmart is now up 26% on the year. On top of that, tech-related darlings such as Amazon, Meta Platforms and Nvidia are all up sharply year to date.
An inflation hedge protects against currency devaluation caused by rising prices. It involves investing in assets expected to maintain or increase value. Hedging can prevent investment losses due to inflation, which reduces the real return. For instance, the real return is negative if a stock yields 5%, but inflation is 6%. Inflation-hedged assets may retain high value despite lower intrinsic worth as investors seek them out. When people talk about their money not stretching as far, they’re referring to inflation affecting their earnings or wealth. Inflation reduces purchasing power, so individuals aim for earnings and investments to outpace it, allowing them to afford more, even with rising prices. Each state has its own inflation rate, influenced by its economy and fiscal and monetary policies. Inflation can affect specific areas like gas or food costs and comes in three types: demand-pull, cost-push and built-in inflation. That said, here are three new inflation hedges that people are going crazy about.
Quantum computing has the potential to usher in a new era of computing power. While the market is still digesting the ongoing artificial intelligence ( AI ) revolution, they have yet to focus in on the next big discovery. Remarkably, quantum computers have the ability to perform optimization and predictive tasks faster than conventional computers. They do require a load of capital to build and maintain. So only a select few public companies in the market specialize in this field. As U.S. equities remain rather volatile, it’s probably best to stay away from small-cap pure-play quantum computing stock. Why? Their ability to generate profits for shareholders is still up in the air. So, let’s examine larger tech companies that have made significant strides in developing quantum computers. And the icing on the cake is, Wall Street is optimistic about all of them. Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL) Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG , NASDAQ: GOOGL ) is the holding company for software giant and household name, Google.
Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Amazon and Harvard University have created a “quantum network” that transmitted an entangled photon from one quantum computer to another over 35 kilometers of fiber-optic cable. Researchers from Harvard and Amazon’s AWS Center for Quantum Networking put a set of nodes around the Boston area to build a network capable of “efficiently catching, storing, and transferring information initially stored in light.” Like the internet we know, quantum networks send information carried by light — in this case, quantum-entangled photons. But they need “repeaters” to prevent those photons from scattering across long distances, as light is wont to do, and the repeaters have to be able to send the photon without breaking its entanglement and modifying… Continue reading…
"We''ve Had A Hell Of A Run": Stanley Druckenmiller Sells 441,000 Shares Of Nvidia Billionaire investor Stanley Druckenmiller, head of the Duquesne Family Office, sees the artificial intelligence bubble as overextended. He has slashed some of his holdings in "Magnificent Seven" technology stocks, including Nvidia. He''s not alone. Other notable fund managers and company insiders are jumping ship and unloading their shares. A recent 13F filing reveals that Druckenmiller''s family office sold over 441,000 shares of Nvidia Corp. in the first quarter, reducing its stake to only 176,000 shares, or worth just about $158 million. Since 13F filings are backward-looking, the firm may have further divested or adjusted those holdings since the first quarter. We suspect Druckenmiller has not added to his Nvidia holdings. Early last week, the billionaire investor appeared on CNBC''s "Squawk Box," explaining that his exposure to Nvidia was reduced after it went from $150 per share to $900 in just over a year. "I''m not Warren Buffett," Druckenmiller emphasized, noting, "I don''t own things for 10 or 20 years.
People are living longer, and that means money has to stretch further. Retirement is becoming more difficult for people to attain, but there is a common path to long-term wealth. People who invest early and often have a better chance of retiring early. Longer life expectancies also mean customers will stick around longer, buy products and services, and set an example for future generations. These longevity stocks to buy have been around for a long time and are highly likely to outlive their investors. Amazon (AMZN) Source: Tada Images / Shutterstock.com People will always need a reliable hub to buy products and services. Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN ) certainly fits the bill due to its wide range of products. It’s become the most recognizable e-commerce website, offering 1 to 2-day shipping for millions of items. While Amazon established its beginnings with its online marketplace, the company has expanded into numerous industries. Twitch attracts gamers, Whole Foods attracts grocery shoppers and the company’s streaming segment brings in people who want video content.
The future of the U.S. economy appears promising, marked by significant investments and rapid industrial growth. President Biden’s policies are revitalizing American manufacturing, particularly in green industries and microchip production, aiming to bring these crucial sectors back from China. While there are concerns about rising debt and inflation, the positive indicators, such as record-low unemployment and substantial investment in advanced technologies, paint a hopeful picture for sustained growth. Despite challenges, the U.S. economy’s transformation is poised to bolster domestic industries, offering a blueprint for economic revitalization. Knowing that the economy will continue to be very strong, investing in the stock market makes a lot of sense. The only question is which stocks will deliver the best returns.
