Fiji Tourism Surge Faces Sharper Question: Who Gains From the Money?

Fiji Tourism Surge Faces Sharper Question: Who Gains From the Money?

NADI, Fiji, June 22, 2026, 20:22 FJT Fiji’s tourism sector saw a shift this week after Aviation A2Z released a 2026 pay guide showing Fiji Airways cabin crew earn FJ$3,000–FJ$4,500 a month with allowances. InterContinental Fiji also said it started a one-year partnership to support Children of the Sea at Natadola Beach, offering meals, transport, First Aid training and help for five Sanasana Village children. Now, Fiji’s hospitality brands are getting measured by cabin crew pay and what kids in beach communities get from the tourism economy—not just by arrivals or new flight routes.

Infosys drops after Accenture forecast adds to Indian IT pressure

Infosys stock heads into the week after Accenture news hits Nifty IT

Infosys comes into this week facing renewed selling after shares slid 6.75% Friday to close at ₹1,051.40. The stock touched ₹1,030 during the session and saw turnover above 45.6 million shares. The drop is key now as it put pressure on the market’s bet that India’s big IT exporters were nearing a demand rebound. Accenture, seen as a bellwether for Indian tech by many investors, cut the top of its fiscal-year growth forecast. That points to choppy client spending. “Local currency” growth takes out currency effects for a clearer picture of demand.

Flex stock heads into S&P 500 debut after volatile shortened week

Flex Ltd. heads into Monday’s session as a new S&P 500 member after a rough, fast week for the stock, which ended the holiday-shortened stretch lower despite a late bounce. FLEX closed Thursday at $147.61, the last regular-session price before the Juneteenth market holiday. That is the point now. Flex is moving from the S&P MidCap 400 into the S&P 500, the large-company benchmark followed by index funds and portfolio managers, before trading opens June 22. Chief Executive Revathi Advaithi called the move a “landmark milestone,” but the market has already had two weeks to price it.

US Stocks This Week: PCE Inflation, Micron Earnings in Focus as AI Rally Hovers Near Records

Stocks go into the last full week of June with AI leaders still leading, but there’s less margin for error now as investors look ahead to an important inflation print and Micron Technology’s results. Last week was shortened by the Juneteenth holiday—NYSE closed on Friday, June 19. Thursday’s session was the last cash close. The rally is back near records just as the Federal Reserve sounds less supportive. The S&P 500 jumped 1.08% Thursday to close at 7,500.58. The Nasdaq Composite climbed 1.91% to 26,517.93. The Dow edged up 0.14% to finish at 51,564.70, according to Reuters. For the week, the Nasdaq did best.

American Airlines finishes holiday week up; fuel costs lighten pressure for airlines

American Airlines Group Inc. shares rose for the shortened U.S. trading week, getting a boost as travel stocks climbed in a fuel-led rally ahead of the Juneteenth break and the weekend. Shares of the Nasdaq-listed carrier ended Thursday at $15.99, up 3.7%. Trading volume was about 126.3 million shares. The stock stayed under its 52-week high of $16.50, so the gain stopped short of a full breakout.

Social Security checks to go out June 24 as July could shift payments for SSI

Social Security checks to go out June 24 as July could shift payments for SSI

Social Security’s final regular June checks go out Wednesday to people with birthdays from the 21st to 31st, finishing the agency’s three-Wednesday cycle this month for most retirement, survivor, and disability recipients. AS USA said Friday the June 24 payments wrap up the payouts for June, and SSA’s 2026 calendar keeps the fourth-Wednesday schedule for this group. The Social Security issue is practical, not political. SSA’s May data reported 71.2 million people getting Social Security. The average monthly retirement check was $2,028. Disability insurance paid out an average $1,493.25. Another 7.3 million people got Supplemental Security Income—SSI—for people with limited income who are older, blind, or disabled.

Home Depot shares finish week up as investors weigh housing numbers

Home Depot closed out a choppy week with a 2.1% gain on Thursday, finishing at $334.28 ahead of the Juneteenth market holiday. The stock, part of the Dow and S&P 500, rose about 1.8% from last Friday’s close during the shortened trading week. The broader market also snapped back. U.S. markets didn’t open Friday for Juneteenth and stayed closed Saturday, so investors last saw a full trading day on Thursday before next week’s housing numbers. The NYSE’s holiday calendar puts Juneteenth National Independence Day on the schedule for 2026. Normal NYSE hours are 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Eastern.

Oklo rises for the week after Centrus fuel agreement draws attention to nuclear supply concerns

Oklo rises for the week after Centrus fuel agreement draws attention to nuclear supply concerns

Oklo Inc shares climbed in the shortened week after the advanced nuclear company signed a fuel supply letter with Centrus Energy. Investors saw the move as progress on the fuel supply challenge for next-generation reactors. The stock finished Thursday at $61.17, up 4.0% for the day and about 6.4% above last Friday’s close. U.S. markets were closed Friday for Juneteenth and will stay shut through the weekend. Oklo’s story is shifting now—from policy talk to proof in the supply chain. High-assay low-enriched uranium, or HALEU, is uranium with enrichment levels between 5% and less than 20% uranium-235. Many advanced reactor designs use it to pull more energy from smaller cores.

Seagate Technology Holdings plc starts the week trading close to its 52-week high, coming off four strong sessions. Investors remain willing to pay a premium for the stock, which some see as one of the steadier storage names tied to AI infrastructure.

KLM Flight KL791 turns back to Amsterdam

KLM Flight KL791 turns back to Amsterdam

KLM flight KL791, a Boeing 777-300ER headed for São Paulo, turned back to Amsterdam Schiphol soon after takeoff and declared an emergency. The plane, PH-BVS, landed safely and taxied to the gate on its own, according to aviation reports. KLM’s problem flight wasn’t a short hop. The June 19 service to São Paulo is a long-haul route, Schiphol data shows. It also carried Air France, GOL and SAS codeshare numbers, so delays would hit travelers booked not just with KLM, but its partner airlines too.

Teradyne set to join Nasdaq-100 after shortened week rally

Teradyne is coming into this week with new index momentum and pressure to deliver. The stock jumped 7.19% to $437.92 on Thursday, its last U.S. close before the Juneteenth holiday. Teradyne is set to join the Nasdaq-100 before the opening bell on Monday, June 22, Nasdaq said. Astera Labs, CoreWeave, Nebius and Rocket Lab will also join. The move could mean index funds built to mirror the Nasdaq-100 have to shift their holdings to stay in line with the new list.

TSMC Leads Nvidia in Short Week Chip Gains

TSMC Leads Nvidia in Short Week Chip Gains

TSMC’s U.S. shares closed up 6.9% on Thursday, ahead of Nvidia, which added 3.0%, in the last trading day of a holiday-shortened week. The PHLX Semiconductor Index gained 6.4%, with a broad rally across chip names, but TSMC topped Nvidia. This comparison is important since Nvidia and TSMC are at different stages of the supply chain. Nvidia creates AI processors. TSMC acts as a foundry, making chips for other companies, including advanced chips for AMD and large cloud groups. The spread this week shows investors paid a premium for manufacturing exposure. But this wasn’t a direct victory over a rival.

Bombardier shares climb with Global 8000 orders, tax breaks in view

Bombardier Inc. Class B shares jumped Friday as traders piled into the business jet maker’s turnaround and Global 8000 plans. The stock finished at C$314.87 in Toronto, up C$13.30 or 4.41%. That put it just below its 52-week high at C$329.16, even as the Canadian market lagged. Bombardier isn’t trading as a typical turnaround play now. Google Finance data had the stock just above the average 12-month analyst target of C$314.43. That’s from eight analysts tracked in the last three months—four rate it “buy,” four say “hold.”

Joby Aviation trades close to $10 into Juneteenth holiday as air-taxi trade shifts

Joby Aviation Inc. closed at $10.00 before the Juneteenth break after a strong rally Thursday, as the electric air-taxi maker ended the short week on firmer ground.

Joby is working on eVTOL aircraft—electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicles that can take off like helicopters and fly short city trips.

  • Take-Two (TTWO) jumps 6.9% as GTA VI preorders seen adding $240M-$360M in revenue
    July 4, 2026, 1:11 PM EDT. Shares of Take-Two Interactive (NASDAQ:TTWO) climbed 6.9% during the holiday-shortened week, outpacing both the Nasdaq Composite and S&P 500. BTIG said Grand Theft Auto VI preorders could mean $240 million to $360 million more in gross player spending, assuming 12 million to 18 million buy the $99.99 Ultimate Edition instead of the standard $79.99 version. The early numbers help back Take-Two's fiscal 2027 forecast for $8.0-$8.2 billion in net bookings, an increase of around 20% from the previous year, with much of that driven by GTA VI. The $240M-$360M forecast is before any cuts from platforms or retailers. Actual sales numbers haven't been released, so the share move is based on some channel checks.
