5 IBM-Heavy ETFs to Watch as Mainframe Hits 20-Year High and the Stock Whipsaws

The slide hit ETFs loaded with IBM, dimming their recent appeal. https://www.google.com/finance/quote/IBM:NYSE?hl=en This matters now since many investors hold IBM via funds focused on dividends, income, and lower-volatility equities—not just broad tech indexes.

Costco pulls ‘no preservatives’ rotisserie chicken signs after additives lawsuit

Costco pulls ‘no preservatives’ rotisserie chicken signs after additives lawsuit

Costco Wholesale Corp. has taken down “no preservatives” labels from signs and online listings for its Kirkland rotisserie chicken following a proposed class action by two California consumers alleging the claim was deceptive. The company told MEAT+POULTRY it “removed statements concerning preservatives” to maintain consistent labeling. It added that ingredients like carrageenan and sodium phosphate, which aid moisture retention and texture, are approved by food safety regulators. Wesley M. Griffith, the plaintiffs’ attorney, said Costco’s quick removal of the wording confirms the “no preservative” claims were inaccurate. The clash centers on a popular prepared-food item, hitting retailers and food producers as regulators zero in on straightforward ingredient claims that influence buyers right at checkout. Costco shares gained roughly 1.6% in Tuesday’s morning session.

  • AMD Trades at 54.08 Forward P/E, Well Above Sector and Peers as Growth Picture Stays Mixed
    July 3, 2026, 3:17 PM EDT. Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is trading at a 12-month forward price-to-earnings ratio of 54.08, much higher than the Zacks Computer & Technology sector's 23.18 average, with rivals NVIDIA at 18.9 and Broadcom at 21.57. Shares have jumped 142.2% so far this year, beating out the sector's 14.6% rise but still trailing Intel's 226.6% rally. Growth gets a lift from strong demand for data center chips, but the company faces weaker gaming sales, supply limits, and tough competition from NVIDIA and Intel. Consensus earnings for 2026 hold steady at $7.18 a share, which would be up 72.2% from 2025. Margins could take a hit as AI accelerators-typically lower margin-make up more of the product mix. With competition rising and mixed signals across business lines, investors may debate whether AMD's valuation premium can last.
