Celestica Inc. (CLS) Draws Market Interest on AI, Energy Momentum
June 30, 2026, 5:53 AM EDT. Celestica Inc. (CLS) has beaten Nvidia’s gains over the past three years as demand from artificial intelligence (AI) and energy transition pushes growth. Shares sit about 20% below all-time highs and the Zacks price target as the stock faces some pressure. The company is guiding for double-digit sales and earnings growth in 2025 and 2026, pointing to strong revenues on the back of demand from data centers, semiconductors and energy storage markets. Celestica’s operations split into Advanced Technology Solutions and Connectivity & Cloud Solutions, covering design, manufacturing and logistics. CEO Rob Mionis said demand remains solid and flagged new AI program wins, mentioning a 1.6 terabyte switching project with a hyperscaler.

Tech Rout Stokes Bubble Worries for US Stocks
June 30, 2026, 5:50 AM EDT. The slide in U.S. tech names is firing up talk about a bubble, as traders watch runaway valuations in AI and chips. Market players point to high AI spending fueled by debt and a Fed that’s still signaling more tightening. The Buffett Indicator-market cap to GDP-sits close to record highs at 218%. Bank of America’s Bubble Risk Indicator puts tech and semiconductor risk scores at 0.82 and 0.91, just under bubble territory. Decent earnings growth has helped trim the S&P 500’s forward P/E to 20.2, but analysts say that profit base may not hold up. With stretched valuations and rising risks on positioning and sentiment, market watchers say the rally looks wobbly here.

SpaceX (SPCX) could see 14.5% drop by 2026 as growth, profits questioned
June 30, 2026, 5:49 AM EDT. SpaceX (SPCX) has been swinging since its June 12 IPO, with one eye on future bets like AI venture xAI but still showing no profits or strong growth. The story is about what might happen later, not what’s happening now. Some investors are staying on the sidelines, cautious amid political unknowns and rising doubt over heavy AI spending. Analysts say 2026 revenue may hit $37 billion, but with a 50x sales multiple the company would be valued at $1.85 trillion – about 14.5% under where shares trade now, pulling the price down to $140. That’s below where SPCX debuted. For now, Starlink is the main moneymaker, but it may fall short of covering the big price tags for SpaceX’s AI and space projects, keeping pressure on the stock.

Cleveland-Cliffs (CLF) drops 31% in a month, DCF points to 17% undervaluation
June 30, 2026, 5:41 AM EDT. Cleveland-Cliffs (CLF) stock is down 31% for the month, closing at $9.38. That’s even as shares are still up 23.4% over the past year. The move comes as investors weigh swings in the materials sector and changes in steel demand. A Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) value estimate comes in at $11.33 for CLF, about 17% above the last close-suggesting the stock trades below intrinsic value. CLF reported negative free cash flow of $1.03 billion over the last year, but forecasts see this improving to $536 million by 2028. Valuation work also uses Price-to-Sales because earnings are volatile. Shares look cheap given the selloff, but sector risks stick around.

Gallup: Real estate still ranks above stocks for Americans' long-term investment pick
June 30, 2026, 5:36 AM EDT.Real estate is still the top long-term investment for Americans, Gallup’s 2026 poll says, with 38% picking it over stocks at 20%. The S&P 500 averaged 11.5% annual returns over the past 40 years, but more people see property as more stable. After the 2008 financial crash, Americans leaned harder into savings accounts and gold for safety, bumping them up in past polls. Experts mention ongoing doubts about stocks since the 2007-2009 crash, while real estate keeps its draw. Gallup’s numbers show real estate has led investment preference every year since 2013, with more people going for tangible assets and less for market swings.

Intel Gains on Cantor Fitzgerald Boost, Price Target Now $150
June 30, 2026, 5:35 AM EDT. Intel shares were up 2.65% at $131.72, outpacing the Nasdaq Composite after Cantor Fitzgerald moved its price target to $150 from $90.

Nvidia pops after Firmus signs AI factory deal driven by compute demand
June 30, 2026, 5:33 AM EDT. Nvidia traded up to $194.97, pushing its market cap near $4.76 trillion before the Nasdaq session on June 30, 2026.

Firmus expects between $25 billion and $30 billion in six-year customer offtake, which pencils out to $147,000 to $176,000 per accelerator. The deal points to continued cloud demand for Nvidia-powered AI infrastructure, and the structure could give Nvidia more recurring, usage-tied revenue over time. Nvidia shares gained about $57.6 billion in market value after the news, and traders saw it as a sign of strong AI-led growth ahead.

SpaceX IPO Drives Surging Volumes, Big Swings on Wall Street
June 30, 2026, 5:19 AM EDT. SpaceX priced its IPO at $135 a share and set off a trading frenzy that saw huge volumes and heavy volatility through Wall Street. Shares opened at $150, soared as high as $226, then moved mostly between $150 and $160. Brokerages such as Charles Schwab and Citadel Securities called it one of their busiest stretches with plenty of retail traders active. Despite dropping 17% in week two, strong appetite is still there as investors look at SpaceX’s role in launches, a profitable Starlink business, and its push into AI. Analysts still flag risks from big price swings, but say SpaceX could have room to run long term. The IPO buzz even sent SpaceX’s value past Amazon and Microsoft, if only for a short window.

S&P 500 futures advance as rate hike risks and trade deficit weigh
June 30, 2026, 5:06 AM EDT.U.S. stock futures were higher Tuesday, with E-mini S&P 500 up 0.7% and Nasdaq 100 futures advancing more than 1%, trading as 10-year Treasury yields held near 4.38%.

Bitcoin Lifts Lending as Wall Street Credit Spurs Market Near $60,000
June 30, 2026, 5:04 AM EDT.Bitcoin trades around $59,400 with a small pullback, but crypto lending is picking up again, hitting about $67 billion in Q1, according to Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Galaxy Digital. The industry is shifting away from shaky crypto firms toward overcollateralized loans, bank lines, and rated ABS. Zack Pokorny at Galaxy Research says CeFi lenders are slowly cutting leverage, taking fewer risks with better collateral and less rehypothecation, which lessens risk for banks and credit funds. Top U.S. banks like JPMorgan, Wells Fargo, and Morgan Stanley now have Bitcoin-backed offerings, mostly tied to ETFs. SVB highlights ongoing moves from riskier retail deposits to institutional custody and funding, with more focus on transparency and collateral protection as volatility and liquidation risks linger.

American Airlines (AAL) Jumps Past Analyst Targets as Jet Fuel Costs Drop
June 30, 2026, 4:47 AM EDT. American Airlines Group Inc. (NASDAQ:AAL) traded up to $17.92, putting shares about 6% above the $16.90 average analyst target. Lower fuel prices are the main driver. Fuel is a major cost for AAL, and a $1 move per gallon changes yearly expenses by about $4.5 billion. Brent crude is down to near pre-war levels, pushing jet fuel costs down from more than $170 to about $119 per barrel. If these levels hold, AAL could see savings of over $5 billion a year. The stock’s price-to-earnings ratio is at 57.8. Market cap stands at $11.85 billion, below Delta and United. Analyst sentiment stays mixed: 7 buys, 7 holds, 1 sell call. Stronger earnings growth is needed to back up the current price.

Nifty IT Sinks Nearly 2% as Rate Worries Hit Infosys, TCS, Wipro, HCLTech

Cocoa Drops as Supply Jumps, Nigeria Exports Climb
June 30, 2026, 4:15 AM EDT.Cocoa prices fell Monday. September ICE New York cocoa dropped 2.51%, July ICE London cocoa lost 2.50%. Pressure came as global supply increased, including a 28% jump in Nigerian exports year-on-year for May. Cocoa had rallied 20% recently on West African weather issues, like Ivory Coast and Ghana floods, and a 67% chance of El Niño drought. Still, higher port shipments, ICE cocoa inventories at a 1.75-year high, and a 3.8% fall in North American cocoa processing all weighed.

S&P 500 CAPE Ratio Breaks 40, Matching Dot-Com Bubble

The metric, which smooths profits over 10 years, is meant to cut through short-term swings and give a read on valuations. Back then, high valuations ran ahead of weak profits, but now tech heavyweights like Apple and Microsoft are posting solid numbers. Still, there’s a caveat-recent accounting quirks may bump up reported earnings, since big tech spending can pad the numbers.
