From a high-level view of the energy sector, raw oil and natural gas are pulled from the ground and then moved to another location, where they can be processed into useful products. Both of these segments of the energy sector are commodity driven. These Stocks Are Moving the Most Today: Nvidia, Broadcom, GE Vernova, Tesla, AT&T, SoFi, Oracle, and More Shares of Nvidia, Broadcom, and ASML slump as China’s DeepSeek threatens the companies’ dominance in artificial intelligence, and Tesla falls ahead of earnings from the electric-vehicle giant later this week. AT&T, meanwhile, posts better-than-expected earnings. Hedge funds were pausing US AI bets as DeepSeek emerged, says Goldman Hedge funds were already waiting to see if a U.S.-fostered, home-grown artificial intelligence boom would continue as China's new AI model was emerging to challenge U.S. dominance in the sector, a Goldman Sachs note said. Nasdaq futures slumped and technology shares slid on Monday as the swelling popularity of a Chinese discount AI model wobbled investors' faith in the profitability of what the United States has to offer. Last week, hedge funds fled their bets on tech stocks, a Goldman Sachs note from Friday and seen by Reuters Monday showed. Google Wants To Indulge In Workforce Training and Global Policy Discussions On AI Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Google prioritized building educational programs to train the workforce on AI to help the workforce grapple with job insecurity following the advent of AI. Google’s Kent Walker and Ruth Porat are discussing policy recommendations with global governments after CEO Sundar Pichai earmarked $120 million to build AI education programs. Walker emphasized to Reuters the importance of familiarizing more people, including governments and organizations, with the u Weekly Stock List Will 2025 be a bullish year for stocks, especially after the big up year in 2024? Our forecasts say yes. Our target price for the S&P 500 is 6700, about 10%-12% above current levels. Our economic, earnings, and valuation models support a forecast for a positive year for stocks. We believe the stock market will take its cues from two sources in 2025: the Fed and earnings growth. We expect earnings growth of 12%, following a 9% increase in 2024; that interest rates will trend lower as the Fed continues to ease; and that valuations will hold steady. In a certain-to-be-unpredictable investing environment, we present 10 key themes that we believe will be important in 2025. Some of these blur boundaries between sectors. This is by design. While we have specific sector recommendations (i.e., over-weight Information Technology, Financial), we believe some factors supersede industry characteristics and can drive performance for diversified groups or portfolios of stocks. Here are our Investment Themes for 2025: Theme 1: Management Signals; Theme 2: Artificial Intelligence; Theme 3: Clean Energy; Theme 4: Sustainable Impact investing; Theme 5: Innovation; Theme 6: Cybersecurity; Theme 7: Investing in the Cloud; Theme 8: Aerospace and Defense, All Systems Go; Theme 9: Uptick in Capex amid Declining Interest Rates; and Theme 10: Pharmaceuticals and Biotechnology. For this week's list, we take a deep dive into Theme 1, Management Signals. Argus recommends that investors pay close attention to companies sending upbeat signals to the market by raising guidance and increasing dividends. We think consistent -- and accelerated -- dividend growth at a company gives three important signals to investors in a stock: the company's balance sheet is strong enough to pay a dividend; management is mindful of shareholder returns, which include dividends; and a significant dividend increase can be a message from management that the near-term outlook for a company is promising, even during an economic slowdown. We especially like companies that have grown their dividends at an average double-digit pace over the past five years. The top five companies in the following list have consistently raised guidance. The next five companies have grown their dividends at an average double-digit pace over the past five years. Is Tesla Stock A Buy Or A Sell With Fourth-Quarter Earnings Due Wednesday?
