Investing.com -- S&P Global Ratings has upgraded AZZ Incorporated's (NYSE:AZZ) issuer credit rating to ‘BB’ from ‘BB-’, citing accelerated debt repayment and sustained improvements in the company's leverage profile. The rating agency also raised its issue-level rating on the company’s senior secured debt to ‘BB+’ from ‘BB’, while maintaining a ‘2’ recovery rating.
McDonald's (MCD) has a pricing problem in the United States, its second-largest business. Its value menu of 10 items for under $3 each has not delivered what management expected. The shares lost 19.3% over the past year (as of September 23, 2026), while the S&P 500 returned 13%. The fix is not settled, because it depends on franchisees charging the prices McDonald's recommends.
Airbnb (ABNB) shares fell 21% in the month to September 23, while the S&P 500 rose 0.8%. A $10,000 holding at the start of that month was worth about $7,860 at the end. Airbnb's own news over those weeks does not explain it, so the fall needs a different explanation.
If you own CVS Health (CVS), the primary focus shifts from 2026 execution toward potential headwind variables heading into 2027. Management raised its 2026 earnings outlook on its fiscal Q2 2026 call in August. It also gave an early read on 2027, a quarter sooner than usual. One warning in that read came with no number. Over the past three months, the shares lost 15.2%, while the S&P 500 gained 5.0%. What is the 2027 problem CVS would not put a number on.
Palantir Technologies (PLTR) stock has climbed 10.0% over the last five trading days, while the S&P 500 rose 2.0%. A run like that invites you to chase it. But one week is not the question. The question is what Palantir does to your money when the market moves, because it travels further than the index both ways and further still on the way down.
Microsoft's next phase of growth may depend less on new customers than on serving the ones it has. The stock has run hard, returning 37% over three months against 5.0% for the S&P 500. At a market value of about $3.7 trillion, any new business must be large to move the shares. Will new data center capacity arrive fast enough to serve the demand Microsoft (MSFT) has already won.
A $10,000 holding in Joby Aviation (JOBY) a year ago is now worth about $3,940. The S&P 500 returned 16.5% over the same year. Even after that fall, Joby’s valuation reflects market expectations for electric air taxis that have not yet entered commercial passenger service. Is buying Joby now too early, before those air taxis carry their first passengers.
Netflix (NFLX) stock trades near $71, about 43% below its high of the past year, and it lost 6.6% in the past week. The market did not fall with it: The S&P 500 returned 16.5% over the past twelve months. So without any shock at all, Netflix is already down more than its average fall in past market shocks. What would a real crash add.
Even if a company is profitable, it doesn’t always mean it’s a great investment. Some struggle to maintain growth, face looming threats, or fail to reinvest wisely, limiting their future potential.
Carnival Corporation (CCL) threw off free cash worth 9.7% of its market value over the last twelve months, more than twice the 4.4% median for an S&P 500 company. A yield that high usually means a bargain or a business the market expects to shrink. Carnival is not that simple. The cash is real, and a large share of it belongs to its lenders.
(Updates with market moves at the end of the day, and other changes, if any.) The Nasdaq Composit
SanDisk (SNDK) has run up 23.3% over the last five trading days, while the S&P 500 added 2.4%. A move like that in a NAND maker pulls money in. But next week's price is not the question. What matters is what owning the stock does to your money when the market moves, because SanDisk travels much further than the index in both directions.
Mortgage applications in the US fell last week as a key 30-year rate crossed 7% to reach the highest
Amid rising business activity, U.S. companies this year have grown more pessimistic about future inflation.
US bond yields surged Wednesday to reclaim their highest levels in nearly two decades after new data depicted strong business activity and intensifying inflation concerns.
(Updates with latest market prices and developments.) US benchmark stock indexes fell intraday an
Sept 23 (Reuters) - Mounting inflation pressures and a strengthening economy look to be pushing the Federal Reserve towards an interest-rate hike on the eve of critical national elections, with
Verizon Communications (VZ) trades at about 12 times earnings, against an S&P 500 median of 22.4. A discount that wide usually follows a collapse. Not here. The stock returned 14.1% over the past twelve months, behind the index's 17.9%, and management has raised parts of its 2026 guidance in two straight quarters. So is this a good business on sale or a fair price for a company that has stopped growing.
Walt Disney (DIS) owns theme parks and streaming services. The stock costs 21.8 times its earnings of the past year. The S&P 500 is at 22.6 times. So you pay less than the market for these businesses. That case only pays off if two things are both true. Disney's latest earnings call gave a reason to doubt the first. What did management say about ad prices.
Comcast (CMCSA) trades near $22, about 29% below its 52-week high, and the market has not been falling with it. The S&P 500 returned close to 18% over the past year, while Comcast lost about 21%. The company is in the middle of a broadband pivot that it says is holding its own results down. So the question is not how hard Comcast drops in a crisis. It is how long it stays down.
Major US stock market indexes were slightly lower in Wednesday's premarket trading as investors focu
D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) trades near $17.50, about 61% below the high it set inside the past year. Nothing in the market broke to do that. The S&P 500 returned close to 18% over the same twelve months. The stock has already fallen a shock-sized amount without a shock, which is what makes the next leg hard to size.
S&P Global will release on Wednesday its preliminary September Purchasing Managers' Indices (PMIs) for the United States.
S&P Global (SPGI) is in focus after highlighting rapid uptake of its AI tools, with 500 customers using model context protocol connectors and a very large jump in data usage through APIs and large language model calls. S&P Global’s recent AI push comes at a more challenging time for the stock, with the share price down 6.7% over the past month and 21.5% year to date. A 1-year total shareholder return decline of 13.6% contrasts with a positive 3-year total shareholder return of 19.7%, which...
PG&E (PCG) trades at about $12.94, the bottom of its 52-week range and about 32% below its high. Over the past twelve months it lost 12.2% while the S&P 500 gained 18.5%. That gap did not come from a market crash. And in market shocks since 2007, its deepest fall includes a one-day break in PG&E's own price data.
Marvell Technology (MRVL) raised its revenue outlook in late August. Yet its stock has fallen 16.4% over the past three months, before dividends. The S&P 500 returned 4.2% with dividends reinvested over the same stretch. After its late-August results, investors worried about when a key AI chip deal will pay off. Management placed the biggest gains from it in fiscal 2029 and beyond. Meanwhile, the shares already trade at a far higher multiple of profit than the S&P 500.
UiPath (PATH) has fallen about 27% from its one-month high, though it is still up 34% over three months. The stock trades at 19.5 times earnings, against an S&P 500 median of 22.6. For a software company growing faster than most of the market, that looks like a gift. The question is whether investors see an AI threat the numbers do not show yet.
United Parcel Service (UPS) generates free cash flow worth 6.8% of its market capitalization of about $80.6 billion, well above the 4.4% median for an S&P 500 company. A yield that high means a bargain, or a business the market expects to shrink. UPS is shrinking on purpose. It has cut about 2 million pieces a day of lower-quality Amazon volume, and investors want to see what the smaller network earns.
Lowe's Companies (LOW) stock trades near $191, its lowest price of the past year and about 33% below its 52-week high. Over the trailing twelve months, it lost 25.9%, while the S&P 500 returned 18.5% with dividends reinvested. No market crash did this. So how much further could it fall if one arrives.
