Trump signs Executive Order to ‘unleash American drone dominance'
President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order to 'ensure continued American leadership in the development, commercialization, and export of unmanned aircraft systems – otherwise known as drones,' the White House announced. 'The Order directs the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration to expand drone operations by enabling routine 'Beyond Visual Line of Sight' drone operations for commercial and public safety missions, and to accelerate the development, testing, and scaling of American drone technologies, including advanced air mobility and autonomous operations. The Order establishes an electric 'Vertical Takeoff and Landing' integration pilot program to accelerate the deployment of safe and lawful vertical operations in the United States, selecting at least five pilot projects to advance applications like cargo transport and medical response,' the White House stated. Companies working on drones or low-altitude urban aircraft known as eVTOLs include AeroVironment (AVAV), Joby Aviation (JOBY) and Archer Aviation (ACHR). Confident Investing Starts Here:

AMC Entertainment Draws Bigger Crowds as Investor Confidence Fades
AMC Entertainment (AMC) just posted its best Memorial Day weekend ever, setting new records for both ticket sales and concession revenue. But despite packed theaters and positive box office momentum, the stock has dropped more than 16% over the past week. The disconnect highlights a deeper issue: while strong movie turnout is encouraging, it's not enough to offset the company's underlying financial challenges. With lingering structural issues, ongoing meme-driven volatility, and more attractive opportunities elsewhere in the sector, I remain bearish on AMC for now. Easily unpack a company's performance with TipRanks' new KPI Data for smart investment decisions Receive undervalued, market resilient stocks right to your inbox with TipRanks' Smart Value Newsletter There's no denying that AMC is enjoying some genuine momentum. The Memorial Day weekend was a clear highlight, as more than 7 million people went to an AMC to catch a movie (or two) over the holiday. This helped the company set new records for admissions, food and beverage sales, and overall revenue. Furthermore, the industry is experiencing upward trends. After a brutal start to 2025, the spring months brought a welcome turnaround. April's box office results were double what they were the previous year, suggesting that audiences are returning to theaters (finally). AMC is looking to ride the wave of returning moviegoers by doubling down on offering 'premium experiences', including upgraded seating, enhanced sound systems, and larger screens. These premium formats command higher ticket prices, which should help boost revenue per customer. Finally, the company has recently announced it is experimenting with new advertising strategies, potentially creating another revenue stream. Despite riding a rising tide and operational improvements, AMC's financial health remains problematic. The first quarter of 2025 was particularly challenging, with several key metrics heading in the wrong direction. Revenue dropped by 6.7% year-over-year, falling to $862.5 million. Furthermore, AMC reported a loss of $202.1 million for the quarter, compared to a loss of $163.5 million during the same period in 2024. The impact this has had on AMC's cash reserves is alarming. Cash levels have dropped dramatically from $632.3 million to just $378.7 million. This rapid cash burn is worrying. Ultimately, AMC's debt is a significant burden. The company carries a staggering $8.28 billion in total debt, with $43 million in debt payments due this year, $173 million next year, and a whopping $526 million in 2027. With less than $400 million in cash, its interest coverage ratio is now an anemic -0.18. AMC's leadership team remains bullish about the company's prospects. Management is projecting annual revenue growth of about 7% over the next three years. While this sounds encouraging, it's actually slightly below the average for the broader entertainment industry, suggesting AMC may continue to face headwinds even in a recovery scenario. Analysts following the company hold a mixed outlook for its prospects, rating it a Hold overall, with a 12-month price target of $2.92. Most recently, Texas Capital's Eric Wold rated AMC a Hold, with a price target of $3. Noting AMC's significant debt and upcoming maturities, he suggests cash flow challenges from rising interest expenses could impact the company's equity valuation. Meanwhile, B. Riley's Drew Crum has lowered the price target on AMC to $3, while maintaining a Neutral stance. He maintains a generally positive outlook for the industry, given a robust upcoming slate of Hollywood films that are expected to drive box office recovery. Citi analyst Jason Bazinet holds a more pessimistic view, recently reiterating a Sell rating. However, he slightly increased the price target to $2.60, citing changes in advertising forecasts amid reduced tariff concerns. Any discussion of AMC stock would be incomplete without addressing its 'meme stock' dynamics. Take May as an example—the share price nearly doubled within a matter of days, fueled by a wave of coordinated buying from retail investors on platforms like Reddit. These kinds of explosive moves have become a defining feature of AMC's trading behavior. But the rallies are usually fleeting. Once the hype dies down, the stock often gives back its gains as the company's underlying financial challenges come back into focus—something we've likely seen play out over the past week. While AMC's meme stock status can create bursts of excitement for short-term traders, it also brings extreme volatility. That volatility distorts traditional valuation metrics and skews technical indicators, such as moving averages, making it difficult to assess the stock through a conventional investment lens. The question for AMC ultimately revolves around whether resurgent demand and operational improvements can overcome its financial constraints. Until AMC can demonstrate consistent profitability and make meaningful progress in reducing its debt burden, positive box office trends will not be enough to sustain the stock (though ongoing meme-related volatility spikes are likely). I am inclined to avoid AMC until the company can demonstrate that it can turn its box office momentum into the kind of sustained financial performance that will help it climb out of its debt crater.

Trump-Musk feud: Are electric vehicles and Tesla at the heart of the breakup?
The President of the United States of America and one of the world's most influential billionaires are at odds after months of collaboration. The confrontation escalated Thursday with Elon Musk saying Trump would have lost the election without him in a post on X. President Donald Trump in turn referred to his former senior advisor as "the man who lost his mind" in a Friday morning ABC News phone interview. Republican Trump allies are now also speaking out against Musk. Musk's breakup with the administration has been public and is well-documented, with Trump and the Tesla CEO trading calculated jabs like pro boxers. The underlying reason behind the sudden intense feud is a serious cause of concern for some American car buyers. "Clean Coal" has been a popular buzzword for not one but two presidential campaigns for Donald Trump. So, Elon Musk's initial choice to stand beside a global warming skeptic as the CEO of a clean energy and automotive company was puzzling to say the least. At first, Musk's involvement with the administration was seen by many as mutually beneficial, since the CEO could potentially reap the benefits of government contracts for Tesla and SpaceX. The general public quickly soured to the idea of the eccentric CEO playing a key role in the administration. By April 8, Tesla stock had nosedived 41.50% from its January 2 share price. Tesla dealers have been attacked and vandalized while other Americans have staged peaceful protests against Musk's involvement in government and role at the Department of Government Efficiency. So, why would a guy who once wore a "Trump Was Right About Everything" hat suddenly publicly oppose his new bill? The short answer is, the two don't see eye to eye on the automotive industry's most controversial powertrain option. The One, Big, Beautiful Bill could decimate Tesla. President Donald Trump's stance and actions against EV adoption in America includes: Supporting the One, Big, Beautiful Bill, which suggests phasing out a federal EV tax credit that would benefit thousands of Tesla buyers Claiming former President Joe Biden's EV mandate "would kill 40% of the auto industry's jobs", according to Ordering the shut down of many federal electric vehicle chargers and pausing massive federal EV fleet purchases, according to Elon Musk (and Tesla's) stance and actions for EV adoption in America: Elon Musk bio says "Tesla's mission has been to accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy" Musk claimed "the world does need electric cars" during a 60 Minutes interview and factory tour, asserting that Tesla has a crucial role in the future of EVs Tesla has collaborated with Ford, GM, Stellantis, Rivian, Volkswagen, Honda, Acura, Hyundai, Kia, Toyota and more to provide Tesla Supercharger access to EVs, making them easier to charge for American drivers Tesla stock recently plummeted in response to the feud between Trump and Musk. The President has also threatened Musk's government contracts amidst the dispute. The bill appears to be the focal point of the rift, but the two clearly have different ideas on what America's future should be. President Donald Trump and Elon Musk may have been able to join forces over their mutual stances on certain conservative points and a hatred of bureaucracy, but their White House tag team was short-lived. The One, Big, Beautiful Bill directly undermines some of the actions Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency have taken since the two united. Trump is 78 years old and expresses a desire to bring America back to a golden age of manufacturing before globalism outsourced American jobs and created a reliance on foreign trade. He also speaks about returning the country to an age where mining and drilling for fossil fuel production were prioritized over environmental concerns. Musk, on the other hand, is a 53-year-old futurist who strives to make humans a multi-planetary species and has made a fortune from innovation and technological disruption. At a glance, the issue seems to be about the One, Big, Beautiful Bill attacking Tesla's bottom line but the two polarizing figures are fundamentally different in terms of future aspirations. Based on Trump's falling out with several former members of the first Trump administration and Musk's known adversarial nature in the private sector, this could be the end for, arguably, the most fascinating duo of 2025.
