Visual Editor Agent: will soon allow any team to instantly update a storefront using a Figma file or natural language, no developers required. Data Insights Agent: receive priority access to real-time omnichannel performance data in plain language, without the need for static dashboards or SQL queries.

With VTEX Vision 2025, we have expanded our infrastructure to meet rising demands, from B2B buyer personalization to seamless consumer retail experiences, all on one unified commerce platform built for growth, ' said Mariano Gomide de Faria, Founder and Co-CEO of VTEX.

Why Did Energy Fuels Stock Get Clobbered Today?
Key Points Energy Fuels stock tumbled today on no obvious bad news -- either for it or for uranium stocks in general. Energy Fuels stock is not currently profitable, but it might turn profitable next year. Other atomic stocks with worse prospects for profits are performing better today. 10 stocks we like better than Energy Fuels › Energy Fuels (NYSEMKT: UUUU) stock collapsed Tuesday, falling 17.4% through 11:45 a.m. ET on no obvious bad news. To the contrary, the latest news for uranium stocks in general (and presumably for Energy Fuels in particular) looks rather good. According to the energy experts at "Uranium prices and nuclear equities are surging as tight supply, underbuilt production pipelines, and policy-driven nuclear revival create a structural supply deficit." Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » So what's ailing Energy Fuels stock today? Uranium prices still strong The most obvious likely culprit for a decline in stock price at a company that mines uranium would be a decline in the price of uranium. But in fact, according to data from TradingEconomics, uranium prices are doing just fine. True, after approaching a recent high near $80 per pound back in June, uranium prices "corrected" sharply lower in early July. But the price of uranium has slowly been moving back up ever since and recently passed $73 a pound. Regardless, shares of not just Energy Fuels but also of rivals Cameco (NYSE: CCJ) and Denison Mines (NYSEMKT: DNN) are down today -- though the others aren't down as much as Energy Fuels stock is. Is Energy Fuels stock a buy? Also noteworthy is that Denison in particular received price target hikes from multiple investment banks yesterday. This is curious because, while both Denison and Energy Fuels stocks are currently unprofitable, analysts polled by S&P Global Market Intelligence think Energy Fuels stock will turn profitable next year, but Denison isn't expected to earn a profit again until 2029. Call me a traditionalist for preferring profitable stocks over unprofitable stocks, but that kind of makes me think today's unexplained sell-off could make this a good time to buy some Energy Fuels stock. Should you invest $1,000 in Energy Fuels right now? Before you buy stock in Energy Fuels, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Energy Fuels wasn't one of them. The 10 stocks that made the cut could produce monster returns in the coming years. Consider when Netflix made this list on December 17, 2004... if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you'd have $671,466!* Or when Nvidia made this list on April 15, 2005... if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you'd have $1,115,633!* Now, it's worth noting Stock Advisor's total average return is 1,076% — a market-crushing outperformance compared to 184% for the S&P 500.

Rockwell Automation Report Finds CPG Industry Prioritizing Innovation Over Cost-Cutting
MILWAUKEE, Aug. 19, 2025 /CNW/ -- Rockwell Automation, Inc. (NYSE: ROK), the world's largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, today announced the results of the 10th annual State of Smart Manufacturing Report: Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) Edition. The findings highlight how manufacturers are placing greater importance on innovation, workforce development, and long-term growth strategies. The CPG industry is facing pressure on multiple fronts, from the growth of store brands to the demand for faster innovation and more sustainable products. At the same time, consumer loyalty is harder to earn, and expectations for customization and transparency are rising. In response to this, CPG companies are moving away from small-scale technology pilots and investing in solutions that deliver measurable results across the organization. The combination of workforce training, better use of data, and more adaptable systems is helping these manufacturers stay competitive while managing complexity. And as private-label brands expand and consumer expectations evolve, CPG leaders are prioritizing investments that help them compete more effectively in a crowded and fast-changing market. Notable Key Trends from 2024 to 2025: Rising Competition Leads Industry Concerns: In 2024, economic uncertainty and inflation were main challenges noted in our annual survey. In 2025, competition has taken the lead, driven by increased market pressure from private-label products and changing consumer buying habits. Technology Needs to Work for People: Companies are focusing less on simply adopting new tools and more on making sure new technology fits their teams and operations. Usability and scalability are now critical factors in technological decisions. Capabilities CPG leaders are looking for in their workforce include: communications/teamwork (86%), adaptability/flexibility (85%), while analytical thinking and cybersecurity practices are tied (84%). AI and Robotics Lead Investment Priorities: At the heart of technology investment decisions is a shift in thinking. 70% of CPG manufacturers say they are investing in AI, robotics, and simulation technologies for long-term business growth. This is a shift from last year when technology supported more sales analytics and process optimization. More companies are using data effectively The number of manufacturers who say they are using their data to guide decision-making is up from 40% in 2024 to 44% in 2025. AI is playing a growing role in data utilization in key areas like quality control, logistics, and cybersecurity, scoring 5% above the general average. Workforce strategies are evolving While 2024 emphasized attracting skilled labor, the 2025 report shows 34% of manufacturers are concentrating more on training current employees on updated processes, while 33% of the focus is on managing change effectively and improving employee retention. "CPG manufacturers are no longer just reacting to disruption—they're proactively investing in technologies that deliver sustainable growth and competitive advantage," said Steve Deitzer, vice president, Global Industry, CPG, Rockwell Automation. "This year's report shows a clear pivot toward long-term thinking, where AI, automation, and workforce enablement are central to success." Scalability and integration are now central to how CPG leaders approach growth. By aligning technology, people and processes, companies are working to build more agile and efficient operations that can keep up with market changes. The 2025 State of Smart Manufacturing Report, based on insights from 174 CPG leaders across 15 countries, is part of Rockwell Automation's broader global research initiative surveying over 1,500 manufacturing decision-makers. The full findings of the report can be found here. About Rockwell Automation Rockwell Automation, Inc. (NYSE: ROK), is a global leader in industrial automation and digital transformation.
