The move is designed to meet the growing capital needs of its German transmission system, which is playing a pivotal role in Europe's energy transition.

Ferrari N.V. (RACE): A Bull Case Theory
We came across a bullish thesis on Ferrari N.V. (RACE) on Hidden Market Gems' Substack. In this article, we will summarize the bulls' thesis on RACE. Ferrari N.V. (RACE)'s share was trading at $482.61 as of 6th June. RACE's trailing and forward P/E were 47.96 and 46.51 respectively according to Yahoo Finance. Photo by M on Unsplash Porsche and Ferrari both build high-performance, high-prestige cars, but only one commands mythological status in the eyes of the market. While Porsche is undeniably profitable and respected, with a backlog of eager buyers, it still grapples with convincing investors it's a luxury brand. Ferrari, on the other hand, exudes effortless exclusivity — its brand is its moat, requiring no explanation, no reinvention, and certainly no scaling to justify its premium. When Porsche went public in 2022, it did so amid much fanfare, billed as the German Ferrari and achieving a €75 billion market cap, briefly even eclipsing its parent, Volkswagen. Yet the structure of the IPO revealed the reality: Porsche AG remains 75% owned by VW, which is controlled by Porsche SE, the family holding of the Porsche-Piëch dynasty that itself owns a stake in VW. The supposed 'unlock' of value is tangled in circular ownership, leaving the equity story diluted by complexity. In contrast, Ferrari's 2015 spin-off from Fiat Chrysler was clean and surgical. Investors bought direct access to the brand, without holding company baggage or operational entanglements. One share equated one vote, one slice of the legend. Ferrari doesn't have to chase scale, electrification, or strategic pivots to remain compelling — its very identity as Ferrari is self-sustaining. That clarity and purity are what the market rewards: Ferrari trades as a luxury icon; Porsche, despite all its engineering prowess, still trades as a car company. The distinction isn't performance — it's perception, and Ferrari owns it. Previously, we covered a on Axon (AXON) by the same author, emphasizing its AI-driven ecosystem for law enforcement, strong recurring revenue, and ambitious vision to become the global public safety OS. Despite a premium valuation, Axon's high-margin TASER segment, scalable cloud offerings, and clean balance sheet position it as a long-term compounder and has appreciated by approximately 5% since our recent coverage. Ferrari (RACE) offers a contrasting angle, less about growth mechanics and more about brand purity. Ferrari N.V. (RACE) is not on our list of the 30 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds. As per our database, 51 hedge fund portfolios held RACE at the end of the first quarter which was 37 in the previous quarter. While we acknowledge the risk and potential of RACE as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk. If you are looking for an extremely cheap AI stock that is also a major beneficiary of Trump tariffs and onshoring, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.

World's beef eaters facing major price hikes ahead of barbecue season
Carnivores will likely need deeper pockets this year as global beef supplies tighten and prices head up again, in turn meaning more expensive barbecues, burgers, bolognese and steak dinners. "Global beef production is expected to contract through the remainder of the year, with an overall contraction of 2% projected for the year," according to Angus Gidley-Baird of RaboResearch, part of Dutch lender Rabobank. Some of the world's major cattle and beef producer countries expected to be affected, Gidley-Baird said, with "largest contractions" expected in Brazil and New Zealand, while Europe, the US and China are also likely to see reductions. Even if other suppliers such as Australia and Argentina remain unaffected, the contracting supplies elsewhere are likely to see the "further supporting" of already "elevated" cattle prices. Not only are global cattle markets "trending higher" this year, prices in Europe have seen an "especially strong rise in Q1 [the first quarter of the year] as domestic supplies contracted while demand remained strong." Pests and diseases are affecting cattle supplies in Europe and North America, according to the researchers, who said that although beef has not been mentioned as a commodity to be targeted for tariffs beyond the impact of general or "baseline" measures, the prospect of further trade tensions has seen some reconfiguring of markets. "Reports are emerging that Chinese buyers are looking more toward Australian, New Zealand and South American suppliers as US beef becomes unavailable or more expensive," Rabobank's researchers said. The report follows warnings in some countries that the price of "conventional" beef has reached that of usually more expensive organic beef. This time of year usually sees seasonal high demand and high prices for beef as the 'barbecue season' associated with European and North American summers approaches. Global food prices already saw significant increases during Covid lockdowns and in the wake of the invasion of Ukraine by Russia in 2022, a war pitting two major food commodity producers against each other. Prices for the most part have not returned to their pre-2020 level, with recent reports warning of further rises for staples such as coffee, cocoa, olive oil and sugar.
