Ukrainian President Zelensky: The security assurance documents we provided are 100% ready.U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessenter: We will eventually end the Russia-Ukraine conflict.January 25th - For most of the past three years, the so-called "Big Seven"—Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Tesla—have led the stock market rally. However, this trend reversed at the end of 2025 as Wall Street began to question the hundreds of billions of dollars these companies have invested in developing artificial intelligence and when those investments would pay off. An index tracking the Big Seven hit a record high on October 29th, and since then, five of the Big Seven companies have seen their share prices decline and lag behind the S&P 500. During this period, only Alphabet and Amazon, with gains approaching 20%, have maintained their upward trend. Darrell Cronk, Chief Investment Officer of Wells Fargo Wealth and Investment Management, stated, "Tech stocks have become a performance-driven story. If big tech companies continue to deliver strong results, I think money will flow back into the tech sector." Next week, Microsoft, Apple, Tesla, and Meta will release their earnings reports, providing insights into the health of industries ranging from cloud computing and electronics to software and digital advertising.On January 25th, Saudi real estate developers shares saw their biggest gain in four months, boosted by the formal implementation of new regulations allowing foreigners to own a wider range of local real estate assets.
