The first was that artificial intelligence (AI) stocks would outperform again in 2025 and the second was that Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) would hit $200 this year. Now, I still believe AI stocks will do well this year, assuming markets don’t tank between now and its end. But is $200 still on the cards for Nvidia? Let’s discuss. AI chip demand Looking at the chip stock today, I still believe that $200’s possible this year. However, to hit that price level, several things will have to happen. First, the company will have to…

[ad_1] Microsoft to purchase up to 700,000 nature-based carbon credits through 2035 from CAM’s forestry project in Washington State.

The deal — arranged by EFM, the operating partner for CAM’s Natural Capital Fund I — secures up to 700,000 carbon credits…
[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images On New Year’s Eve 1999, the dotcom bubble was fully inflated. The FTSE 100 ended the year at 6,930 points. At market close on 20 May 2025 the index stood at 8,781 points. That’s a gain in more than 24 years of just 27%, which is pretty awful. It suggests £10,000 invested just before the century ticked over would now be worth only around £12,700. But the true potential is a lot better than that. And it’s all because of dividends. The value of dividends The long-term average FTSE 100 dividend yield is around 3.5%…

But without last month’s positive reaction to the self-styled ‘King of Trainers’ preliminary results for the 52 weeks ended 1 February (FY25), the situation would have been much worse.

This morning, the group confirmed its adjusted PBT for FY25 was £923m. No surprise there. And it announced a 11.1% increase in its dividend. This…

[ad_1] Image source: The Motley Fool Ocado Group (LSE:OCDO) is a FTSE 250 stock that like to focus on EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) when reporting its results. It’s not alone. But I’ve chosen the grocer-cum-technology group to help illustrate why this measure of profit has its critics. For the 52 weeks ended 1 December 2024 (FY24), Ocado reported adjusted EBITDA of £153.3m. After revenue, it was the second financial measure referred to in its press release. Compared to FY23, it had increased by £101.7m. This significant improvement could explain its prominence in the stock exchange announcement.…
