New Jersey gubernatorial candidates offered various reactions to the mysterious drone sightings over the Garden State . Why It Matters Recent drone sightings across New Jersey and other eastern states have sparked concerns, as little information about what they may be has been made public. The Federal Bureau of Investigation ( FBI ) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) assured Americans in a statement last Thursday that there was "no evidence" that the sightings pose a public safety or security threat or have a foreign origin. The sightings come as the race to replace New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy is 11 months out . The sightings present an opportunity for both Democratic and Republican candidates to show how they might lead the state in a potential crisis. Historically, whichever party isn't holding the presidency does well in New Jersey's gubernatorial elections, giving Democrats optimism about holding the office next year, but the state shifted to the right in this year's elections, with President-elect Donald Trump losing it by only about 6 percentage points. What to Know Both Democrats and Republicans running in New Jersey's governor race have commented on the drones. In a statement on Monday, Representative Mikie Sherrill, a Democrat who has led early primary polls, released a "drone plan of action" to locate and track drones flying over the state, increase information available to police and increase communications about the drones with Garden State residents. She wrote that she is "incredibly frustrated with the lack of coordination and communication from agencies" amid the sightings. "Right now, our leaders need to be acting in accordance with a unified plan, and speaking with one voice in order to protect our national security, keep New Jerseyans safe, and ensure state and local authorities have the information and tools they need to take action," she said. Last week, Representative Josh Gottheimer, another Democrat running for governor, urged the FBI and DHS to allow state and local law enforcement to take down the drones safely. "New Jersey cannot become the wild west for drone activity — and Americans shouldn't have to worry about what's flying overhead, especially as technology like AI advances at an unprecedented clip," Gottheimer said in a statement. He also told reporters on Monday that the state needs a "proper system to track the activity" as residents "shouldn't have to worry about what's overhead." Jack Ciattarelli, the Republican leading early primary polls, told Fox News last week that he was "very, very fearful" that somebody could "take matters into their own hands." "You can't tell me with the resources we have available to us in New Jersey, McGuire Air Force Base, Fort Dix, Coast Guard, International Guard, the most well-equipped police force in the country, that we can't get answers? This is ridiculous," he said, criticizing Murphy and the White House for taking what he views as a "laissez-faire" approach to the drones. Newsweek reached out to each of the politicians' campaigns for comment via email. What People Are Saying Others have also responded to the drone sightings. Governor Phil Murphy on X: "Tonight I met with @NJSP officials and radar technicians at the Regional Operations & Intelligence Center who are surveying the area for unmanned aircraft systems. The public deserves clear answers — we will keep pushing the federal government for more information and resources." President-elect Donald Trump during a press conference: "The government knows what is happening. Our military knows where they took off from. If it's a garage they can go right into that garage. They know where it came from and where it went. For some reason, they don't want to comment. I think they'd be better off saying what it is. Our military know,s and our president knows." The FBI previously told Newsweek : "The FBI is aware of reported sightings of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)—commonly referred to as drones—observed flying in multiple locations over the past several weeks. The FBI remains engaged with our federal, state, local, and tribal partners to share information and protect the public." New York Governor Kathy Hochul, in a statement : " In response to my calls for additional resources, our federal partners are deploying a state-of-the-art drone detection system to New York State." What Happens Next Pressure for officials to disclose more information about the drones is expected to continue over the coming days, while speculation about where the drones are coming from may continue growing in the absence of definitive information. Federal law enforcement has maintained that the drones do not pose a threat to the public.

Liquids, Laptops Can Stay in Carry-Ons at Some Canadian Airports With New Screening TechMcCormick & Co. Inc. stock falls Wednesday, underperforms market
The year is almost up. Therefore we are at the time when people begin to reflect on the previous year – what went right, what went wrong, etc. We’re almost at the midpoint of the decade, too. And this has me thinking about my time in this business, which has been over four decades now. Looking back, I’ve been blessed to have more than my fair share of winners. And that’s thanks in large part to Stock Grader ( subscription required ). It led me to Tyson Foods, Inc. (TSN), the original supplier of McDonald’s Corporation (MCD) for its Chicken McNuggets. Tyson was left with a lot of leftover “chicken parts” as the demand for McNuggets soared. So, the company decided to make its own “Chicken Chunks,” creating a monopoly out of a new way to eat chicken. Its operating margins expanded and created windfall earnings, and I made over 900% in the stock . Then, there’s Conair Corporation, a personal care company that specializes in hair products. Conair created a handheld hair-drying product in the early 1980s when “big hair” was the biggest fashion trend. As demand rose and people wanted bigger hair, the watts of hairdryers rose from 800 to 1,200, then to 1,800 and up. This fueled Conair’s explosion of earnings. Once competition came in a few years later, I decided to sell Conair and made over 1,000% in profits ! Now, I can confidently tell you that most people are lucky to have one 1,000% gainer in their life. For a really good analyst? Maybe once a decade. So, how have I been able to pick out these huge winners before they really pop? Well, it’s quite simple really... some of the biggest winners of my career all had one thing in common... They all had monopolistic characteristics. In other words, they were so dominant, there were virtually no competitors. This is what led to their amazing returns. Given this, I think I know what the “Stock of the Decade” will be when the 2020s are over. I’m talking about NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA). In today’s Market 360 , I’ll explain why. We’ll take a closer look at NVIDIA’s business and how I found the stock before the AI Boom started. I’ll also share why I expect the AI Boom to continue... and where to learn how you can profit from it. NVIDIA and the Dawn of the AI Boom NVIDIA is a leading computer graphics company that makes graphics processing units (GPUs). Originally, graphics were only prized by video game enthusiasts. But it turns out that the GPU has a wide range of powerful applications. They can be used to aid computers in applications like financial modeling, oil and gas exploration, virtual reality and even in self-driving cars. So, in the late 2010s, NVIDIA began receiving some unusual orders. Not only were crypto enthusiasts buying up high-end GPUs to mine cryptocurrency... but machine-learning researchers were also using the cards to train their models. It turns out that GPUs are really good for something called “parallelization.” This is where you break down a large computational task into smaller ones that can be calculated independently and simultaneously. That makes GPUs extremely powerful – far more than even the best central processing units (CPUs) in these types of computations. Data storage provider Pure Storage estimates that GPUs are roughly three times faster than an equivalent CPU for machine-learning algorithms. That is an enormous advantage in a world where large models can require months to train and cost millions of dollars. That put NVIDIA on the fast track to success. Thanks to its portfolio of valuable patents and internal research, NVIDIA got an enormous head start on the AI Boom . No company came close. Why I Recommended NVIDIA What originally got me excited about NVIDIA was what it was doing with the development of autonomous vehicles. My son was an engineering student at Stanford when they debuted an autonomous race car named “Shelley” that used NVIDIA chips. But in 2019, when I learned what it was planning to do with AI, I pulled the trigger and added it to my Growth Investor Buy List. Since then, the stock has been on a tear, and it’s now sitting on a whopping 3,300% gain! The reason behind NVIDIA’s stunning growth? Its AI chips. Back in March 2022, NVIDIA unveiled the Hopper chip. It was a significant advancement in GPU technology, specifically designed to meet the growing demands of AI computing. So, it’s no surprise that roughly $19.4 billion of NVIDIA’s $26 billion in revenue from its most recent quarter can be attributed to Hopper. Then, before we knew it, ChatGPT launched in November of that same year, and the AI Boom took off. The rest, as they say, is history. To stay ahead of the competition, NVIDIA introduced Blackwell in March 2024. This is a brand-new GPU that is set to succeed Hopper. It is reportedly 2.5 times faster and 25 times more energy efficient. In other words, it’s a completely new game-changer. What sets the Blackwell GPU apart is that it is for generative AI, which is “machine learning.” The other AI chip competitors, like Intel Corporation (INTC) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), are not experts in machine learning. They are primarily developing chips for AI devices that optimize correlating data sets to learn preferences and habits rather than machine learning to solve problems and provide solutions. So, NVIDIA effectively has a monopoly. And as NVIDIA develops even more powerful GPU successors to Blackwell, I do not expect any competitor to “crack” NVIDIA’s dominance. I should also add that demand for Blackwell has been insatiable, with Big Tech names like Microsoft Corporation (MSFT) and Meta Platforms, Inc. (META) lining up to get all they can get their hands on. It’s reported that Blackwell is sold out for the next 12 months. So, once these new chips are in full production – and in peak demand – the company’s business is set to explode even further. This leads me right into why it is the stock of the decade... Why NVIDIA Is the Stock of the Decade Through the end of this decade, the transistors in each of NVIDIA’s chips will be approaching the “atomic” level, so sheer physics may prohibit it from making its chips any faster. So, looking beyond this decade, NVIDIA plans to utilize quantum computing. This is a form of computing that essentially utilizes ones AND zeroes to perform calculations instead of a 1 or 0, like traditional computing. Now, quantum computers have traditionally been cost-prohibitive except for government agencies and some universities. But I predict NVIDIA will help lead the charge to a breakthrough in this field in order to help speed up generative AI after its GPUs hit their physical limits. In fact, NVIDIA has a quantum cloud simulator up and running right now. The point is that NVIDIA is miles ahead of the competition. Now, I must disclose that NVIDIA is grossly overweighted in my portfolios. But I have no intention of selling this stock anytime in the next few years. Eventually, companies do lose their “edge.” Another more innovative company comes along with a better product and eats their lunch. But I don’t see that happening anytime soon with NVIDIA. To put it bluntly: I have never found a stock as monopolistic and as powerful as NVIDIA. Since the company is expected to dominate generative AI GPUs with virtually no competition in sight, I think it’s worth holding the stock through the end of the decade. And even after that, I expect NVIDIA to shift gears and then dominate quantum computing to further speed up generative AI. A New Wave of the AI Boom That being said, I predict that we’re going to see the AI Boom broaden out as we enter the second half of this decade. That’s because, within Donald Trump’s first days in office, he will issue a set of executive orders that will unleash a flurry of activity to help support the AI Boom . This second wave will be the new driving force of AI. And in a special presentation, I lay out a number of ways you can profit. Click here to learn how you can profit from the second wave of the AI Boom . Sincerely, Louis Navellier Editor, Market360 P.S. If there’s anything we can learn from my experience with NVIDIA, it’s that finding the right stock at the right time can make all the difference. Names with superior fundamentals and strong momentum can go on to rise 100%... 300%... even 1,000% in relatively short order... while making their shareholders enormous amounts of money. Stocks like these allow you to turn modest amounts of money into large amounts of money. They’re the “bullet trains” of the stock market. They move the fastest. So... why should you own anything else? Luke Lango, Senior Analyst for InvestorPlace, has devised a strategy that turns this mindset into an actionable plan . It requires just about 10 minutes of work a month, and exposure to only 10 equities at a time. Even so, a thorough backtest showed it would’ve done 18.6X better than the stock market from April 2019 to April 2024. And it has beaten the market every single month since Luke started live testing it in July.

‘The smiling one’ Ruben Amorim says he can be ruthless when he needs to beO n the Southern Boulevard bridge next to President-elect Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in West Palm Beach, there is a parked car festooned with Trump flags. Jestin Nevarez — who blasts out a rap version of Bruce Springsteen’s “Born in the USA” titled “Trump Saved the USA” on repeat — is the owner. “I come out here and show support,” he told The Independent . “And right now, Mar-a-Lago is a tourist attraction. So when people drive by, they see the flags, they hear the music, they stop in and they have a good time.” People do indeed stop to take photos of Nevarez’s car and snap photos of the once and future president’s estate. Palm Beach has changed in the years since Trump first became president. In 2016, Palm Beach County voted for Hillary Clinton by more than 15 points. It went on to vote for Joe Biden by about 13 points. But this last election, Palm Beach County moved more in line with its most famous resident, when Kamala Harris won it by less than a point. Later in the day on Friday, Angelique Morgan, a former reality television personality who goes by the name Frenchy Morgan, arrived in a pink Chevy convertible to talk with Nevarez and take photos. Morgan said she has been to Mar-a-Lago three times. “I'm absolutely fascinated with Trump,” she told The Independent . “If he's not the American dream, I don't know who is.” Morgan, who is a French-born naturalized American citizen, said she was particularly excited that Trump has brought on Elon Musk onto his team. “Trump adopted Elon, right? And I love it,” she said. “And I think it's amazing this time around, he has strong people around him who have more money than him, who can also help him and protect him.” Brandee Sisting was excited to visit Mar-a-Lago on Saturday for an event with Charlie Kirk. She’d traveled to Florida from Ventura, California specifically for it. Sisting said that on election night, she wasn’t optimistic. In 2020, it looked like Trump was going to win and then he didn’t, after all. “So I went to bed, I just said, ‘No, I'm gonna go read my Bible and I'm gonna go to sleep. I'm exhausted,’” she said. “And the next morning I woke up and my husband said, ‘He got it, Brandee. He won.’” Mar-a-Lago and Palm Beach are not the same as Washington, however — and Trump’s return to DC since his second electoral victory has been rocky. His nominee for attorney general, Matt Gaetz, another Florida man and former congressman, took himself out of the running after a series of controversies . Nobody, not even his biggest supporters on Capitol Hill, are sure what his proposed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) — led by Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy — will actually do . Pete Hegseth, his nominee to be Defense Secretary, continues to be on the ropes and it remains unclear whether Republicans will vote to confirm him . But back on Southern Boulevard, voters want Republicans to get behind Trump’s picks. Nevarez flagged how Hegseth’s mother retracted her previous criticisms of her son in an interview on Fox News . “Honestly, at this point, our country is so in disarray and and torn up that I don't care about somebody's personal life,” Nevarez said. “I want to know what they're gonna do for us, what they gotta do for our country.” “A lot of Republicans, they might as well switch their names to Democrats, because that's what they are,” he continued. “It's the MAGA movement and Trump's movement. It's common-sense America first. Trump's not a natural conservative, he's not a natural Republican. He's common-sense America First.” Nevarez said he had been particularly rankled by the behavior of outgoing Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and John Cornyn. “They've been taking advantage of we the people and the government for years, and getting filthy rich off their positions as civil servants,” he said. Sisting, for her part, said she hoped that the GOP would come around. “I'm not frustrated with the Republicans if they become educated,” she said, adding that she is a former Democrat herself. “[Trump] is a good businessman, we got to give him a chance, and he has to surround himself with people that are ethical and truthful.” As the celebrations continued outside Trump’s estate, tourists continued to arrive to snap photos. But, despite his popularity here in Florida, Trump’s star power might not be bright enough to burn the Senate down.None
