Image source: Getty Images After the Cold War ended in the early 1990s, governments across the West cut defence budgets heavily and invested money elsewhere. This peace dividend, as it was called, didn’t stop BAE Systems (LSE:BA.) pumping out its own dividends. But it didn’t help the share price, which ambled between 1998 and early 2022. President Vladimir Putin shattered this when Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine. Since February 2022, the BAE share price is up 255%, before dividends. Of this, 76% has come in 2025 alone. The question now is whether BAE stock keep its impressive run going over…

Image source: Getty Images It’s pretty rare to see nearly nine out of 10 stock market analysts have a favourable rating on a share, especially one that’s not particularly well-known. Yet On Holding (NYSE:ONON) currently holds that honour. Of the 27 analyst teams covering the stock, 24 rate it as a Strong Buy or Buy (or their jargony equivalents like Outperform or Overweight). Two rate it a Hold, while a solitary broker has it down as a Strong Sell (there’s always one!). Their 12-month share price targets average out at $66.81, which is 57.5% above the current share price of…

Image source: Britvic (copyright Evan Doherty) It can be difficult to remember that, just a few short years ago, THG (LSE: THG) was seen as potentially being a future tech superstar of the UK stock market. Instead, the THG share price has lost 95% of its value in five years. The fact that it still commands a market capitalisation slightly north of half a billion pounds is a reminder of how big hopes once were for the online nutritional supplements and beauty product retailer. Has that dream now completely burned out? Or might the current THG share price offer a…
A new community-led carbon initiative has launched in Zambia. Its goal is ambitious: to remove up to 2 million tonnes of CO₂ each year by 2030. This project, called The Ecopreneur Movement – Miombo Woodland Restoration Project, is led by Community Climate Solutions (CCS) and backed by Climate Impact Partners. The initiative empowers 240,000 Zambians to create sustainable livelihoods while restoring degraded ecosystems. Farmers, trained as “Ecopreneurs,” play a crucial role. They are revitalizing Zambia’s Miombo Woodlands, vital carbon sinks, through tree planting, sustainable farming, and fire prevention. Unlocking the Miombo Woodland Carbon Project Zambia’s Musokotwane-Nyawa Miombo Woodland Carbon Project,…

Image source: Getty Images BP (LSE: BP) shares are a FTSE 100 fixture, and plenty of retirees already rely on their dividends to top up their pensions. But this doesn’t make them a rock solid investment. They’ve been wildly volatile over the last 15 years and, for all we know, that could continue. The BP share price has climbed steadily since April, but it’s still only 12% higher than a year ago, and down 18% over two years. I bought the oil and gas giant last year, hoping to benefit from a recovery. It hasn’t really got going yet though. FTSE…
While ‘Fast and light’ may no longer make for the most compelling of product stories it’s a combination that’s remained de rigueur in road racing for decades. And with good reason. In a sport where success is measured in speed, either by crossing the line first or riding against the clock, being fast is everything. And, in rudimentary terms, weight continues to be a vital part of the equation.That Roval has framed the narrative of its two latest pieces of kit, the Alpinist CLX III wheels and Alpinist cockpit, around these two measurables then is perfectly understandable. As the name…
Image source: Getty Images The Lloyds Banking Group share price didn’t take the hammering we feared as a result of the car loan mis-selling scandal. In fact, Lloyds shares are up 52% so far in 2025. But fellow lender Close Brothers Group (LSE: CBG) was exposed to the risk of going bust. And the share price crunched down 11% when the London stock market opened this morning (30 September). But it did bounce back, and at the time of writing we’re looking at a 4% drop on the day. It was full-year results time, and a reported operating loss of…
The excitement of investing in a company that can reverse its fortunes is a big draw for some speculators, so even companies that have no revenue, no profit, and a record of falling short, can manage to find investors. But the reality is that when a company loses money each year, for long enough, its investors will usually take their share of those losses. A loss-making company is yet to prove itself with profit, and eventually the inflow of external capital may dry up. If this kind of company isn’t your style, you like companies that generate revenue, and even…
