This biotech powerhouse could maintain its strength for the long term.

Biotech companies are all about innovation. These players are developing and using cutting-edge technologies to address a variety of diseases, and in many cases, their efforts are leading to game-changing products for patients. You can invest in them during the earliest stages of their story, and if they're successful, score an enormous win over time.

That involves some risk, though, as candidates may not always be successful -- and setbacks could weigh heavily on stock performance. So how can you benefit from the innovation of biotech, but at a lower risk level? By choosing a company that's further along in its growth story and has brought products to market, and at the same time continues to innovate.

Let's check out one that fits the bill. In fact, it's the ultimate biotech stock to buy with $500 right now.

Image source: Getty Images.

A market leader This biotech company is Vertex Pharmaceuticals (VRTX +0.89%), the world's leading player in the cystic fibrosis (CF) treatment market. Vertex has changed the lives of CF patients and their families over the past several years. The company won approval for its first CF drug in 2012 and, since then, has continued to add to the portfolio, with the ability to now treat about 90% of the CF patient population.

Vertex's CF drugs are designed to fix a faulty protein made by the CFTR gene -- since genetic mutations are involved in this disease, it's challenging to develop one drug to handle every case. Now, Vertex's treatments can address most, but the company hasn't stopped there. It's working on a candidate to treat the cases that can't be helped by its current drugs. This ongoing innovation, as well as strong intellectual property, should fuel Vertex's leadership and growth in the years to come.

New growth drivers On top of this, Vertex has two new growth drivers. The company won approval for Casgevy for blood disorders and Journavx for pain management in 2023 and 2025, respectively. These launches are ongoing, and trends are very positive. Casgevy is a gene editing treatment requiring a months-long process, so it's normal that this product takes a while to start delivering growth -- but now may be the moment shareholders were waiting for. Vertex expects non-CF products to bring in at least $500 million in revenue this year.

The company has called both products blockbuster opportunities, so we could be in the very early stages of this growth story right now. And Vertex forecasts as much as $13.1 billion in total revenue this year as the CF portfolio continues to deliver gains.

This leadership and ongoing innovation in CF, as well as new products, position Vertex for many years of strength -- and that's why it's the ultimate biotech to buy with $500 right now.

UBT251 is a triple agonist of the receptors for GLP-1, GIP and glucagon (triple G), being jointly developed by United Biotechnology and Novo NordiskIn a placebo-controlled phase 2 trial in Chinese people with overweight or obesity, UBT251 led to a statistically significant mean weight loss of up to 19.7% after 24 weeksUBT251 appeared to have a safe and well-tolerated profile consistent with incretin-based therapies. Guangdong, China and Bagsværd, Denmark, 24 February 2026 – The United Laboratories International Holdings Limited (TUL) and Novo Nordisk A/S (Novo Nordisk) today announced topline results from a Chinese phase 2 trial of UBT251, a triple agonist of the receptors for GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon (triple G).

UBT251 is being jointly developed by TUL’s wholly-owned subsidiary The United Bio-Technology (Hengqin) Co., Ltd. (United Biotechnology) and Novo Nordisk under an agreement signed in March 2025. United Biotechnology is responsible for development in Chinese mainland, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, while Novo Nordisk is responsible for development in the rest of the world.

The trial, conducted by United Biotechnology, investigated the safety and efficacy of once-weekly injectable 2 mg, 4 mg and 6 mg doses of UBT251 compared to placebo in Chinese people with overweight or obesity. From a baseline mean body weight of 92.2 kg, the highest mean weight loss observed for people treated with UBT251 was 19.7% (-17.5 kg) compared to 2.0% (-1.6kg) in the placebo group after 24 weeks of treatment1.

Moreover, all dose groups of UBT251 showed statistically significant improvements relative to placebo on key secondary endpoints, including waist circumference, blood glucose, blood pressure and lipids.

In the trial, UBT251 appeared to have a safe and well-tolerated profile. The most common adverse events were gastrointestinal, and the vast majority were mild to moderate and diminished over time, consistent with incretin-based therapies.

“The success of the phase 2 clinical trial of UBT251 in China represents another significant milestone in TUL’s innovation-driven development,” said Mr Tsoi Hoi Shan, Chairman of TUL. “We will continue to focus on chronic diseases, including endocrine and metabolic disorders, accelerate the further development of UBT251, and strive to bring more high-quality treatment options to patients worldwide at the earliest opportunity.”

“We are very encouraged by these data from the trial in China, which demonstrate the potential of UBT251 and its differentiated clinical profile and safety and tolerability profile,” said Martin Holst Lange, executive vice president, chief scientific officer and head of Research and Development at Novo Nordisk. “We look forward to reporting data from a global trial with UBT251 conducted by Novo Nordisk next year.”

Novo Nordisk recently initiated a global phase 1b/2a trial investigating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of different doses of UBT251 for up to 28 weeks in around 330 people living with overweight or obesity. Topline data from that trial is expected in 2027. Novo Nordisk also expects to initiate a phase 2 trial with UBT251 in people with type 2 diabetes in the second half of 2026.

United Biotechnology will present detailed data from the Chinese phase 2 trial at a medical congress later this year. Based on the results of this trial, the company is planning to initiate a phase 3 trial in Chinese patients with overweight or obesity.

About the Chinese phase 2 trial
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial enrolled a total of 205 Chinese patients with obesity (BMI ≥ 28.0 kg/m²) or overweight (24.0 kg/m² ≤ BMI < 28.0 kg/m²) with at least one weight-related comorbidity. The baseline mean body weight of the patients was 92.2 kg, with a baseline mean BMI of 33.1 kg/m².

Patients were randomly assigned to receive weekly subcutaneous injections of UBT251 in doses of 2 mg, 4 mg, 6 mg, or placebo for 24 weeks.

The primary endpoint of the trial was the percentage change in body weight from baseline after 24 weeks of treatment.

About UBT251
UBT251 is a long-acting synthetic peptide triple agonist targeting the receptors for GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) and glucagon.

In March 2025, United Biotechnology entered an exclusive license agreement with Novo Nordisk A/S for UBT251. Under the agreement, Novo Nordisk obtained exclusive worldwide rights (excluding Chinese mainland, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan) to develop, manufacture and commercialise UBT251. United Biotechnology retained the rights for UBT251 in Chinese mainland, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.

("ChipMOS" or the "Company") (Taiwan Stock Exchange: 8150 andNasdaq: IMOS), an industry leading provider of outsourced semiconductor assembly and test services ("OSAT"), today reported consolidated financial results for the fourth quarter and the full year ended December 31, 2025, with strong growth driven by improving demand for high-value memory solutions, particularly in datacenter and AI-related applications. All U.S. dollar figures cited in this press release are based on the exchange rate of NT$31.37 against US$1.00 as of December 31, 2025.

All the figures were prepared in accordance with Taiwan-International Financial Reporting Standards ("Taiwan-IFRS").

Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 was NT$6,521.1 million or US$207.9 million, an increase of 6.1% from NT$6,143.7 million or US$195.8 million in the third quarter of 2025 and an increase of 20.8% from NT$5,399.6 million or US$172.1 million for the same period in 2024. Revenue for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 was NT$23,932.9 million or US$762.9 million, an increase of 5.5% from NT$22,695.9 million or US$723.5 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

The difference between the third quarter of 2025 is mainly due to the increase of share of loss of associates accounted for using equity method of NT$99 million or US$3.2 million. The difference between the fourth quarter of 2024 is mainly due to the increase of share of loss of associates accounted for using equity method of NT$110 million or US$3.5 million, the decrease of foreign exchange gains of NT$53 million or US$1.7 million and the increase of interest expense of NT$11 million or US$0.4 million.

The difference is mainly due to the adverse impact on the foreign exchange of NT$703 million or US$22.4 million from the foreign exchange gains of NT$243 million or US$7.7 million in 2024 to the foreign exchange losses of NT$460 million or US$14.7 million in 2025, the adverse impact on share of associates accounted for using equity method of NT$146 million or US$4.7 million from the share of profit of associates accounted for using equity method of NT$3 million or US$0.1 million in 2024 to the share of loss of associates accounted for using equity method of NT$143 million or US$4.6 million in 2025 and the gain on disposal of non-current assets held for sale of NT$72 million or US$2.3 million in 2024.

This compares to NT$232.2 million or US$7.4 million, and NT$0.32 or US$0.01 per basic common share in the fourth quarter of 2024. Net earnings for the fourth quarter of 2025 were US$0.46 per basic ADS, compared to US$0.32 per basic ADS for the third quarter of 2025 and US$0.20 per basic ADS in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Vir Biotechnology (VIR) is experiencing a surge of +58% pre-market due to a significant strategic partnership with Astellas concerning its prostate cancer treatment, VIR-5500, along with encouraging Phase 1 results. This information, combined with an impressive revenue exceedance, is fostering considerable optimistic sentiment. Could this event lead to a fundamental re-evaluation of the stock?

This represents a fundamental, long-term driving force. The alliance with Astellas not only secures $335M in upfront/near-term payments along with potential milestones reaching $1.37B, but it also endorses Vir's T-cell engager platform.

The agreement lengthens Vir's cash runway through Q2 2028, eliminating funding concerns.Phase 1 results for VIR-5500 indicated a promising 45% objective response rate among evaluable patients.The collaboration mitigates risks associated with the development and commercialization of a key oncology asset.However, here’s the intriguing aspect: You are reading about this 58% movement post-factum. The market has already incorporated this information. To identify the next potential winner before it becomes news, you need to rely on predictive indicators, not just alerts. High Quality Portfolio has highlighted 5 new opportunities that have yet to experience a surge.

Playbook On Market OpenThe session will witness a clash between shifts in long-term strategies and short-term profit-taking following a significant gap up. Observe the conviction from institutional investors against the fading enthusiasm from retail investors.

Maintain initial pre-market support levels for continued bullish momentum.Keep an eye on key psychological price points; break signals indicate substantial profit-taking.High volume during the opening drive that upholds highs is bullish; excessive reversal volume serves as a warning sign.VerdictBUY THE OPEN (Conditional): If VIR consolidates and stays above $11.50 within the first 30 minutes, anticipate a breakout, and go ahead and BUY THE OPEN. However, if $11.50 falls with volume, FADE THE GAP.

Tesla's Optimus Gen 3 robot has proven advanced dexterity and meaningful progress in achieving new degrees of freedom.

For much of its history, Tesla (TSLA 3.02%) was known for its lineup of electric vehicles (EV) and energy storage products. But over the last several years, CEO Elon Musk has been sharing his vision to transform the company from a pioneer of the sustainable energy movement into a technology-enabled services business driven by artificial intelligence (AI).

At the forefront of this mission is Tesla's humanoid robot, Optimus. Musk is so serious about Optimus' potential that he's made the executive decision to scale down production of the models S and X vehicles and repurpose Tesla's Fremont factory into a manufacturing center for Optimus.

Let's explore what's at stake with Optimus in 2026. With Tesla essentially mortgaging its future on next-generation services, is now the time to buy the stock before AI fuels its next parabolic run?

What can Tesla Optimus do? Tesla has been building, testing, and iterating Optimus for many years. In its current form, the humanoid is known as Optimus Gen 3.

In marketing videos, Tesla claims that Optimus has learned fine motor skills given its ability to handle delicate objects such as tearing paper towels, opening a cabinet, or folding laundry.

In addition, Tesla has published videos of Optimus demonstrating advanced dexterity -- with an ability to catch moving objects tossed in its general direction, as well as learning how to walk on uneven terrain.

Image source: Tesla.

When will Tesla Optimus be available? During Tesla's fourth-quarter earnings call, Musk said that his long-term goal is to produce 1 million Optimus bots per year at the Fremont factory.

With that said, Musk tempered expectations by telling investors that even with Optimus' advances, the humanoid remains in a research and development (R&D) phase. Besides the lab, Optimus is only deployed within Tesla's own factories so that it can watch, observe, and learn how to complete basic tasks.

Musk hinted that production of Optimus won't occur until "probably the end of this year."

Is Tesla's valuation justified? As of this writing (Feb. 18), Tesla boasts a market capitalization of $1.6 trillion. From a valuation perspective, the company trades at a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple of 202. Using Wall Street's consensus earnings per share (EPS) estimate of $4.05 for 2028, Tesla still trades at 103 times its projected earnings two years from now.

It's easy to say that Tesla stock is already priced to perfection and that buying shares today requires paying a premium. But a contrarian might say Tesla stock is undervalued because no company in history has ever successfully deployed physical AI at a global scale.

In other words, since there's nothing to benchmark Optimus against, it's impossible to know how big Tesla's robotics business could truly become.

Optimus remains an extremely asymmetric bet. If Tesla executes on this vision, the stock could soar to new highs rather easily. But if the product flops or struggles to scale, then Tesla stock could be due for a meaningful de-rating.

Against this backdrop, I would not buy Tesla stock today purely on the hype that Optimus will transform the company by the end of the year. In reality, it will take years -- or even decades -- before Optimus adds additional trillions of value to Tesla in the long run.

Feb 24 (Reuters) - MTU Aero Engines (MTXGn.DE), opens new tab forecast 2026 revenue and profit broadly in line with analyst expectations on Tuesday, betting on sustained high demand for its engine maintenance services as issues with Pratt & Whitney's GTF engines are expected to keep shop visits more frequent.

The company reported fourth‑quarter adjusted revenue of 2.44 billion euros ($2.87 billion), beating a company‑compiled consensus of 2.39 billion.

The engine maker has been navigating the fallout from partner Pratt & Whitney's warning last year that a powder metal defect could lead to cracking in some GTF engine components, an issue that grounded hundreds of Airbus (AIR.PA), opens new tab A320neo aircraft for accelerated inspections and repairs.

It guided for 9.2 billion to 9.7 billion euros in adjusted revenue and 1.35 billion to 1.45 billion in adjusted operating profit in 2026, as strong global demand for engine maintenance offsets persistent costs linked to the troubled engine programme. At midpoint, the targets were in line or slightly above market expectations.

MTU's CEO Johannes Bussmann said the company "made the most of market opportunities in 2025", adding it was "well positioned" for further growth this year.

The results offer the clearest read yet on the financial fallout from the GTF engine recall, which has driven heavy shop‑visit volumes in MTU’s maintenance, repair and overhaul business while pressuring margins through MTU’s 18% share of programme costs.

Shinhan Financial exceeded its capital return target, delivering a 50.2% total payout in FY2025. SHG guides for continued high shareholder returns in FY26, translating into a 52% payout metric and 5.8% yield based on my estimates. Its ROE improved by 70bps to 9.1% in FY25, with management targeting 10% by FY27; brokerage momentum and buybacks support further upside.

The AI boom probably won't last forever.

In late 2022, Wall Street noticed that the first iteration of OpenAI's AI chatbot, ChatGPT, was trained and powered by thousands of Nvidia's (NVDA +0.79%) data center graphics processing units (GPUs). And a spark was lit that quickly made the cutting-edge chipmaker the largest company in the world, with a market cap of $4.55 trillion.

The good news is that companies continue to clamor for Nvidia's hardware. But how sustainable is the demand propping up Nvidia's huge valuation? Let's dig deeper into what could come next as the chipmaker seeks to maintain its dominance over the next decade and beyond.

Image source: Getty Images.

How much is big tech spending on chips? As of early 2026, the AI race shows no signs of slowing down. This month, cloud computing giant Amazon announced plans to increase its full-year capital expenditures by 50% to $200 billion, with much of that going to data center spending. Alphabet has similar goals, with $175 billion to $185 billion earmarked this year. CNBC estimates that total AI spending could hit an eye-popping $700 billion this year alone.

The big-spending hyperscalers can afford to pour so much money into AI because of their diversified and highly profitable businesses. But that doesn't necessarily mean it's a good idea. Capital expenditures come with an opportunity cost because they represent cash flow that could have been used for other things or returned to shareholders through buybacks or dividends. Meanwhile, the value of the AI spending looks uncertain.

While AI technology continues to improve at a rapid rate, it still consistently underperforms humans on basic labor tasks and generates huge losses for the consumer-facing companies like OpenAI and Anthropic that rent computing power from Nvidia's clients. Investors are also starting to balk at the data center spending, with Amazon's share price falling almost 20% in the week following its capex announcement.

Ultimately, public companies exist to serve their shareholders. And if shareholders start consistently punishing Nvidia's clients for their huge AI data center spending, it could force them to cut back or turn to cheaper, homegrown solutions like custom chips.

Can new opportunities save the day? Nvidia earned around 90% of its revenue from its data center segment, which means the company is extremely overexposed to a potential slowdown in this market. However, over the coming years or decades, management aims to pioneer new markets for its hardware.

Nvidia has already begun aggressively investing in quantum computing. And in October, it announced NVQlink, an architecture designed to couple its GPUs with quantum computers. It is too early to know how things will play out, but analysts expect quantum computing to be commercially viable by the end of the decade. And Nvidia could be positioned to dominate the opportunity because of its expertise in chip design and partnerships with advanced manufacturing partners like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing.

Nvidia also has an opportunity in automotive hardware and robotics, where it provides chips to assist with self-driving cars. This segment represented a relatively modest $592 million in third-quarter revenue, but it grew by 32% from the prior-year period. And there is plenty of room for continued acceleration as self-driving becomes more mainstream.

How will Nvidia's stock perform over the next 10 years? Over the next decade, new opportunities like quantum computing and automotive could help make up for a possible slowdown in AI data center demand. But with around 90% of Nvidia's sales coming from its data center segment, new revenue streams could struggle to move the needle.

That said, the company's current valuation seems to price in these long-term challenges. With a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple of just 24, the stock is very cheap for a company that grew earnings per share by 67% year over year to $1.30 in its most recent quarter. The low valuation gives the stock a margin of safety as it navigates these uncertain times. Nvidia looks like a hold until more information becomes available.

The result partly reflects around 255 million euros in impairments and losses from disposed assets in the quarter, including other noncash goodwill impairments.

CompaniesMADRID, Feb 24 (Reuters) - Spanish utility Endesa (ELE.MC), opens new tab said on Tuesday that it will invest 10.6 billion euros ($12.5 billion) in the next three years, more than half of which will be allocated to build and upgrade power networks.

As it invests more on power networks, it will reduce investments in renewables projects, Endesa said in a strategic update released a day after its parent Enel (ENEI.MI), opens new tab presented its own plan.

A massive blackout that hit Spain and Portugal on April 28 last year has highlighted a need for more investment in the country's power networks, but utilities have also called for higher guaranteed returns on such investments.

Endesa's new plan foresees a 10% increase in investments compared with its previous three-year strategy, under which the company had planned investments of 9.6 billion euros, with grids and renewables getting 42% and 39%, respectively, of the overall amount.

Power grids will now account for 5.5 billion euros, a 40% increase.

Endesa's planned renewables outlay will decline 20% to around 3 billion euros, with a more selective approach and a growing role for power storage and wind projects, it said.

The company targets earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) of between 6.2 billion euros and 6.5 billion euros in 2028, up from 5.8 billion euros in 2025.

Adjusted net profit is seen rising to a range of 2.5 billion euros to 2.6 billion euros from 2.3 billion euros last year.

Dividends will rise in line with profits, with a minimum payout of 70% of adjust profits.

Endesa said its adjusted net profit rose 18% to 2.35 billion euros last year, while EBITDA increased 9% to 5.76 billion euros. Both came in above the company's targets.

For this year it forecasts adjusted net profit of 2.3-2.4 billion euros and EBITDA of 5.8-6.1 billion euros.

Spain's competition watchdog recently set the guaranteed return on investments in power grids at 6.58% for the coming years, saying it sought to balance network investment needs with consumer protection.

This is well below the more than 7% Spanish power utilities - including Endesa - have called for.
