Elon Now Pays 15X More Than Your Bank
Elon Musk is now paying you 15X more than your bank… Thanks to a project he's been working on for the last 27 years. All you have to do is sign up for his new bank. For years, America's biggest banks have been telling you they have no choice but to pay you interest rates as low as 0.4% (that's the national average). Now, suddenly… Elon is exposing many of these bankers for the sharks they really are. He's not offering double… or triple… or even five times the interest… But 15 times the national average — at 6% per year. This is just one of the radical ways Elon's new bank is disrupting the financial sector… Luke Lango is revealing how it could impact your money (and how you should prepare) here.
Why Walmart’s Rally May Need a Reset
Author: Thomas Hughes. Publication Date: 5/26/2026.
Key Points
- Weaker-than-expected Q2 and FY2027 guidance has triggered a technical market top, with WMT shares likely to pull back by $10 or more.
- Despite the near-term pullback risk, 34 analysts maintain a consensus Buy rating on WMT with a $139 price target and a 94% Buy-side bias.
- Walmart's high valuation of 44 times current-year earnings and mounting consumer inflation pressures could keep shares range-bound well into 2027.
- Special Report: Elon Musk already made me a “wealthy man”
Walmart’s (NYSE: WMT) stock price could reach new highs because the trends driving its long-term success remain firmly in place.
The world’s largest retailer continues to grow, gain share, and generate strong cash flow, supporting dividends and share buybacks.

Adam O'Dell - the analyst who recommended Palantir before it became the top S&P 500 performer - has identified a new venture quietly incubating inside Tesla. It has nothing to do with EVs, AI, or robotics, yet it generated $12 billion in 2025 alone.
Blackstone calls the broader opportunity a $23 trillion investment runway. Adam believes investors who position themselves before July 22 are early. He's also giving away a free ticker pick in his latest briefing.

While the broader uptrend remains intact, a top appears to be in place, and the stage is set for prices to pull back by $10 or more.
Walmart Signals Top in Q2: Pullback Imminent
Walmart’s top was signaled by a MACD convergence that formed early in 2026. That convergence suggested either fresh highs or, as is the case here, at least a retest of the current highs following a price pullback. Prices did, in fact, pull back after the February high and have since rebounded to retest the prior peak. That level was not exceeded, which is the key factor in late May. With Q2 and FY2027 guidance updated lower than expected, the failed breakout marks a market top that is unlikely to be broken until bullish catalysts emerge. That probably won’t happen until later in the year, when economic data and subsequent earnings reports are released.
The analyst trends remain bullish for WMT stock. The worst-case scenario is that analysts begin resetting their price targets, which would be a near-term headwind at best. As it stands, MarketBeat tracks 34 analysts with current ratings. They peg the stock at a consensus Buy rating with a 94% Buy-side bias and see it as fairly valued near $139, which would be an all-time high if reached. The risk is that analysts do, in fact, begin trimming targets, which could become a catalyst for market selling. The question is whether they establish a new low target or reaffirm the market floor at $120.
Technically speaking, the analysts' low-end target of $120 aligns with a critical support level and likely marks the bottom of this correction. A move below that level would signal a shift in market dynamics that has yet to be reflected in analyst trends or institutional activity. Institutions and family holdings account for approximately 80% of the float, and neither group is selling shares. Institutions have been accumulating aggressively and are likely to remain buyers on a price dip.
High Valuation Means Walmart Can’t Make Mistakes
Valuation is a concern that could keep Walmart shares range-bound for the foreseeable future. The quality company deserves a premium for its market leadership, growth trajectory, cash flow, and capital returns. However, at 44X current-year earnings estimates and 24X the 10-year outlook, the stock is not cheap. The most likely outcome is that WMT shares trade within a range until later this year, or potentially into 2027, when sales trends improve, the company grows into part of its valuation, and the outlook brightens.
Capital returns are another reason to own Walmart, and that is not expected to change in 2026. The dividend yields an annualized 0.8% with shares near record highs, which is not especially robust but is reliable, and payments are expected to increase over time. The company is a Dividend King, pays approximately 35% of earnings as dividends, and has a healthy balance sheet capable of sustaining operations and capital returns. Buybacks are also modest but consistent, reducing the share count each quarter.
Walmart: Hot Results Versus Tepid Guidance
Walmart’s guidance left something to be desired, but it was likely cautious given Q1 strengths and broader consumer trends. The company reported nearly $178 million in net revenue, up 7.3% year over year and 160 basis points better than expected. Strength was seen in e-commerce (up 26%), advertising (up 37%), membership fees (up 17.4%), and positive comparable sales across categories.
Margin news was the weakest part of the report, with gross margin expansion offset by higher fuel costs. The key takeaway is that earnings continue to grow, albeit at a slightly slower pace than revenue, and guidance was not bad. The company reaffirmed its prior targets, expecting revenue growth to slow by year-end but margins to improve.
Walmart’s biggest risk this year is the consumer. Inflation pressures are mounting and, coupled with consumer fatigue, Walmart may see traffic and discretionary revenue contract. In that scenario, Walmart could underperform its guidance in the coming quarters, pushing its stock price below current expectations. A move to $100 is not out of the question, and even lower lows are possible if oil prices remain high and weakness persists into 2027.
Keysight: The AI and Defense Stock Seeing Big Price Target Boosts
Author: Leo Miller. Publication Date: 5/27/2026.
Key Points
- Keysight Technologies is putting up big-time gains, with shares more than doubling since the start of 2025.
- The firm plays in two of the economy's top growth areas: artificial intelligence and defense.
- After beating and raising during its latest quarter, analysts lifted their Keysight price targets substantially.
- Special Report: Elon Musk already made me a “wealthy man”
Keysight Technologies (NYSE: KEYS) sits at the intersection of two major economic trends: the artificial intelligence (AI) buildout and defense modernization.
Those tailwinds have helped Keysight shares deliver strong gains over the past year. Since the start of 2025, the stock has risen more than 100%, and in 2026, shares have added about 70%.

Watch Adam O'Dell's full briefing and get his free ticker nowKeysight spiked 23% after its February earnings report, pushing the stock close to $300 per share. Since then, Keysight has continued to climb and now trades nearer to $350. The company just released its fiscal second-quarter earnings, and the results were the best in its history. While the stock did not get a major boost from the market, Wall Street price targets moved sharply higher. Following the report, analysts issued sizable target increases, reinforcing support for the continuation of Keysight’s impressive run.
Keysight Wallops Adjusted EPS Estimates, Issues Large Guidance Raise
In its report, Keysight posted revenue of $1.72 billion, an increase of just over 31% year over year (YOY). (Note that Keysight reports its fiscal results slightly ahead of the calendar year.) This marked the company’s fastest revenue growth in five years, since sales rose 36% YOY in early 2021. Revenue also slightly beat estimates of $1.71 billion.
The much larger beat came on the bottom line. Keysight reported adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $2.87, up a massive 69% YOY. Analysts had forecast $2.32, implying growth of only 36% YOY. Still, it is important to note that a $96 million tariff refund significantly benefited adjusted EPS. Without that benefit, the company still would have beaten estimates, but by a much smaller margin. The tariff refund is still helpful to Keysight, but it is a factor outside the firm’s control.
Orders grew even more impressively than sales, rising 56% YOY to more than $2 billion — a strong sign for the company’s growth outlook. In light of these results, Keysight raised its full-year fiscal 2026 guidance and now expects revenue growth in the high 20% range. That is a meaningful increase from prior expectations of “growth just above 20%.”
Strength was broad-based across Keysight’s end markets. Commercial Communications, which includes much of its data center and AI-related revenue, rose 40% YOY. That was a solid acceleration from 33% YOY growth in the prior quarter. Meanwhile, Aerospace, Defense & Government saw sales increase 24% YOY, up from 18% YOY last quarter. Electronic Industrial Solutions, which includes some semiconductor revenue, rose 24% YOY, a nice improvement from 15% growth last quarter.
Keysight Shares Didn’t Budge, But Price Targets Moved Way Up
Despite the very strong earnings report, Keysight shares were nearly unchanged afterward, falling 0.6%. This likely reflects the fact that the tariff benefit contributed significantly to the adjusted EPS beat. In addition, shares had already risen 14% since the company’s last post-earnings spike, suggesting investors had priced in much of Keysight’s record performance.
Even so, following the report, Wall Street analysts sharply raised their forecasts for the stock. Overall, among analysts for whom MarketBeat had previous price target data, the average price target moved up 15% to $391. That figure is notably above the MarketBeat consensus price target of $372. Using the updated average price target, implied upside in Keysight stock is close to 10%.
Ten percent upside is not especially compelling. However, the more important takeaway is that Keysight is consistently exceeding analysts' expectations. The company has topped estimates on both sales and adjusted EPS in 11 of its last 12 reports.
As a result, Wall Street forecasters have had little choice but to move their targets higher as Keysight shows its business is firing on all cylinders. When a stock performs this well, analysts often have to play catch-up, and implied upside figures do not necessarily tell the whole story.
Keysight: Strong Fundamental Improvement Versus Elevated Valuation
Keysight currently trades at a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio near 43x. That is significantly higher than its average forward P/E of 23x over the past three years. While this valuation is clearly elevated relative to history, it is also difficult to argue with the results Keysight is delivering. The company is growing at a pace not seen in years, and profits are rising rapidly even without the tariff benefit. Given the strong underlying tailwinds in AI and defense supporting Keysight’s growth, it would not be surprising to see the stock continue to perform well.
