At the last close of US$15.94, both the intrinsic value estimate from the Excess Returns model and the earnings multiple view point to a market that may be underpricing the company.

Cybersecurity tests that allowed Anthropic’s AI models to breach external firms, along with comparable issues at OpenAI, are a sharp reminder that AI risk is not just technical. It is legal, compliance and reputational. As regulators respond with tighter oversight and higher expectations, spending on legal and compliance services could shift in meaningful ways. For investors, that can mean new potential opportunity or fresh risk depending on how companies sit within this regulatory trend...

Eagle Materials stock slipped about 2.1% today, yet the earnings story is more nuanced than that headline move suggests. Coming into the print, shares had already eased over the past month, so expectations were not stretched.

Evercore stock added 2.7% today, a firm move higher after earnings for a company that had drifted lower over the past month. The market is cheering what looks like one simple story. Advisory and underwriting fees produced a record second quarter, and the first half of 2026 landed as a record on adjusted earnings per share. The real story is more nuanced. The market is paying up for an investment bank that just posted roughly US$1.0b in adjusted net revenue for the quarter and a 22.7% adjusted...
