Sempra (NYSE:SRE) added a long-term customer commitment on September 14, when its infrastructure subsidiary announced a 20-year sales and purchase agreement with Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras (NYSE:PBR). The agreement covers approximately 0.8 million tonnes annually of liquefied natural gas, or LNG.
Supply will come from the subsidiary's contracted liquefaction capacity at Port Arthur LNG Phase 2 in Texas. The project is under construction, with trains 3 and 4 expected to begin commercial operations in 2030 and 2031, respectively. The agreement improves visibility into future sales, while the earnings contribution depends on delivery and contract economics.
Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras (NYSE:PBR) becomes the infrastructure subsidiary's first South American LNG customer. That broadens the geographic base of buyers and establishes a commercial relationship extending over two decades.
For Sempra (NYSE:SRE), the practical benefit is an external buyer for part of the subsidiary's contracted capacity. Securing that relationship before startup could reduce the need to find buyers for the covered volumes as production approaches, while supporting longer-term supply planning.
The annual commitment equals approximately 6.2% of Phase 2's planned 13-million-tonne annual capacity. This provides a measure of scale, although it does not establish the percentage of capacity still available for sale.

Semiconductor rivalries rarely move stock prices the way headlines suggest they should. MediaTek unveiled a new flagship smartphone processor on Tuesday, Sept. 15, built to challenge Qualcomm directly in the premium handset market.
Qualcomm Inc (QCOM)'s stock rose anyway, closing up 4.25% at $187.80.
That is not a new pattern. MediaTek's market value first surpassed Qualcomm's earlier this year, according to Reuters. The new chip was meant to widen that lead, not just defend it.
The gap is real money. MediaTek's market capitalization stood near $223 billion on Sept. 15, PitchBook noted. Even after Qualcomm's 4.25% rally that same day, its market cap reached $200.6 billion, according to CompaniesMarketCap, leaving it about $22 billion behind MediaTek.
MediaTek said the Dimensity 9600 Pro is its first mobile processor built on TSMC's 2-nanometer process. Its neural processing unit delivers 51% faster prompt handling for on-device AI models than the prior generation. That lets phones run generative AI tasks without sending data to the cloud.

Jim Cramer raised concerns about The TJX Companies, Inc. (NYSE:TJX) during the September 10 episode of Mad Money, as he said:
We had our CNBC Investing Club meeting today… I review each of the Charitable Trust positions on the call. This time, it was pretty clinical until I got to TJX, the off-price retailer. Candidly, I lost it on TJX. I've owned the stock for the Trust for as long as I can remember, and I've never felt so worried about this franchise. They have a bunch of divisions, but the biggest one, Marmaxx, consisting of TJ Maxx and Marshalls, really blew it. Management told us that they had figured out what had gone wrong and they've already fixed it, but because of competitive reasons or whatever, they wouldn't tell us what went wrong and they wouldn't tell us how they fixed it. I found that infuriating…
I came close to saying, forget it, Jim, it's retail. Sometimes retail is seductive. I love my local TJ Maxx, and I think Home Goods is a fun place to shop. The company's almost always about the best in the industry, crushing Burlington and Ross Stores. But this time, shockingly, Ross Stores upside surprised. It crushed TJX, much better than expected... So why bother sticking your neck out for something in this group? Simple. Because some of the greatest stories of all time have come from retail. Costco's been an incredible long-term performer. Walmart's been terrific. And TJX, it's been a wonder, one of the best stocks ever.
Could they really suddenly have lost it? Did they go all LULU? I don't think so. What happens, though, is you have to be conscious that TJX is right now being buffeted by its group, which is trading down because of the decline in discretionary income from the tax that is higher gasoline. We can't tell how much of its underperformance comes from that alone or maybe the mistakes that management made and says they've corrected. In other words, these retail stocks are very hard to own, even as they seem so easy to grasp.
TJX Companies, Inc. (NYSE:TJX) reported second-quarter fiscal 2027 sales of $15.18 billion, up 5% year over year, while consolidated comparable sales increased 4%. Adjusted diluted EPS rose 11% to $1.22, and the company raised its full-year diluted EPS outlook to $5.31-$5.36, or $5.15-$5.20 excluding an expected $0.16 net benefit from tariff refunds. The weakness was concentrated in Marmaxx, which includes TJ Maxx, Marshalls and Sierra. Comparable sales increased just 1%, down from 6% in the first quarter, while HomeGoods, TJX Canada and TJX International each posted comparable-sales growth of 6% or more.

A health savings account (HSA) is a type of account that lets you save — and potentially invest — for healthcare expenses while earning tax benefits along the way. Depending on your financial situation and immediate medical needs, an HSA can even be a valuable retirement planning tool. But HSAs aren't available to everyone. Continue reading to learn how HSAs work, their rules, and pros and cons.
A health savings account is a tax-advantaged account you can use to pay for qualifying medical expenses, including prescription medications, eyeglasses, doctor's visits, and more. Some HSAs function like a savings account, while others give you the option to invest your funds for future use.
HSAs are known for their triple tax advantage: You fund them with pre-tax dollars, your contributions grow tax-free, and withdrawals are tax-free as long as you use them for qualifying medical expenses. For this reason, HSAs can be a valuable retirement savings tool if you don't need the funds to pay for immediate medical needs.
Unlike flexible spending accounts (FSAs), HSA contributions don't expire at the end of the year. This means you can contribute to your account year after year without the need to "use it or lose it." HSAs aren't subject to required minimum distributions, either.

The artificial-intelligence boom is most often seen as a Wall Street story.
Nvidia (NVDA) rallies. Big Tech spends billions. Data centers multiply. Investors debate which company will become the next major AI winner.
But Bank of America says something more substantial is starting to unfold under the surface.
AI is splitting firms into two paths: those turning the technology into tangible growth and those being disrupted by it.
The BofA research note of Aug. 20, shared with TheStreet, paints a stark picture of this gap in the leveraged-finance sector.

In the United States, the average household net worth is $1,063,700, while the average net worth among 65- to 74-year-olds is $1,794,600. If this seems far higher than you expect, it's because wealthy people drive up the averages. The overall median net worth is much lower: $192,900 overall.
If you want a comfortable retirement, you may need to be closer to the average than the median, at least according to many Americans. In 2026, U.S. adults said they believe they need $1.46 million to retire comfortably.

Interested in Tenaris S.A.? Here are five stocks we like better.
Second-quarter performance weakened as sales fell 4% to $3 billion and EBITDA declined 12% sequentially to $649 million, pressured by Strait of Hormuz shipping disruptions, lower fixed-cost absorption, and higher raw-material and logistics costs.
Tenaris approved a higher interim dividend of $0.59 per share ($1.18 per ADR), totaling about $600 million, supported by $396 million in quarterly free cash flow and $3.6 billion in net cash.
Management expects second-half revenue and EBITDA to be roughly in line with the first half, while potential upside could come from resumed Gulf shipments, stronger fourth-quarter volumes and pricing, rising North American drilling activity, and an expanding offshore project backlog.

Yes -- by the numbers, Wall Street is treating Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD) as close to fully valued going into next week's report. The average price target on the stock is $570.60, about 9% above Friday's close of $521.95.
That cushion is thin for a stock this well-liked. Of the 51 ***** ysts covering AMD, 41 rate it a buy, 10 rate it a hold, and none rate it a sell. Nearly everyone recommends the stock. Almost ***** ody's math leaves room for much upside.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
Additionally, published targets stretch from $320 to $1,250, so there's no shortage of disagreement about where the chipmaker is headed. But the average lands close to where the stock already trades.
The stock's valuation multiple explains the caution. At about $522, AMD trades at about 170 times earnings and about 59 times forward earnings estimates, with a market capitalization of about $851 billion. The trailing figure reflects where the profits were over the past year. The forward one ***** umes the growth keeps coming.

What happened: GE Vernova (GEV) stock fell by roughly 6% on Wednesday.
Why the stock is moving: The gas turbine maker's quarterly results failed to impress investors with earnings missing expectations. Quarterly revenue beat estimates while the company saw a jump in orders for power and electrification equipment.
"With a backlog of $176 billion, continued revenue growth and margin expansion, and significant free cash flow generation, GE Vernova's momentum is building, and we are raising our 2026 financial guidance," CEO Scott Strazik said.
The company now sees revenue of $45.5 billion to $46.5 billion for the year, versus a previous forecast of $44.5 billion to $45.5 billion.

Today, the median retirement account balance (2) among 65-year-olds is $103,202, and only around 18% of workers have a pension. To say the stool is wobbly would be an understatement. It's about to collapse for many.

We recently published Bill Miller Portfolio: Top 10 Stock Picks. Nabors Industries Ltd. (NYSE:NBR) is one of the top stock picks.
Nabors Industries Ltd. (NYSE:NBR) is a large oil and gas drilling company with operations all over the world. The shares are up by 140% over the past year and by 48% year-to-date. RBC Capital discussed the firm in July as it kept a Hold rating and a $200 share price target. Media reports have suggested that the hostilities in the Middle East have benefited Nabors Industries Ltd. (NYSE:NBR) as oil supply disruptions have increased focus on oil drilling companies. This effect also appears to be present in the share price as the stock lost 13.9% between June 15th and June 24th after the US and Iran ceased hostilities.
Earlier in the year, in May, Barclays discussed Nabors Industries Ltd. (NYSE:NBR)'s stock. Barclays significantly raised the share price target to $99 from $65 and ******* ped the rating to Equalweight from Underweight. To justify its coverage, Barclays remarked that the energy services sector was in its best position in two decades.
While we acknowledge the potential of NBR as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk. If you're looking for an extremely undervalued AI stock that also stands to benefit significantly from Trump-era tariffs and the onshoring trend, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.
