Oppenheimer says Rubrik's solid results aided by non-recurring revenue benefit
Oppenheimer analyst Param Singh notes that Rubrik (RBRK) delivered a strong beat for Q1 and guided Q2/FY26 comfortably ahead of consensus. That said, the firm notes that much of the outperformance to the quarter revenue and guide came from non-recurring revenue, without which Rubrik would have performed below bullish buy-side expectations. With current valuation at 13-times EV/Sales, Oppenheimer believes it fully captures a mid-30s annual growth rate, and maintains a Perform rating on the shares.

AbbVie Inc. (ABBV): A Bull Case Theory
We came across a bullish thesis on AbbVie Inc. (ABBV) on Substack by Magnus Ofstad. In this article, we will summarize the bulls' thesis on ABBV. AbbVie Inc. (ABBV)'s share was trading at $198.47 as of May 2nd. ABBV's trailing and forward P/E were 84.82 and 16.34 respectively according to Yahoo Finance. A clinical researcher in a lab examining a new biopharmaceutical product. AbbVie (ABBV) delivered a strong Q1 2025 performance that exceeded expectations and was met with a sharp rise in its stock price, driven by upgraded guidance and confidence in its long-term growth outlook. The company's immunology segment showed robust momentum, with Skyrizi and Rinvoq more than compensating for the anticipated decline in Humira sales. Neuroscience and oncology segments also impressed, led by Elahere, which generated $179 million in global revenue. A key catalyst was the successful conclusion of the MIRASOL trial, where Elahere significantly outperformed chemotherapy in ovarian cancer, reducing the risk of death by 32% and progression or death by 37%. This breakthrough strengthens Elahere's potential as a new standard of care and paves the way for label expansion. AbbVie continues to reinforce its position as a serial acquirer, highlighted by its acquisition of ImmunoGen for Elahere, Nimble Therapeutics for autoimmune therapies, and a recent licensing deal with Gubra targeting obesity—a high-stakes market dominated by Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk. With Q1 revenue up 8.4% YoY (9.8% operationally), ABBV has demonstrated strong execution across its pipeline and commercial portfolio. Sustained performance at this level may warrant an upward revision of the current $215 fair value estimate. AbbVie Inc. (ABBV) is not on our list of the 30 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds. As per our database, 85 hedge fund portfolios held ABBV at the end of the fourth quarter which was 68 in the previous quarter. While we acknowledge the risk and potential of ABBV as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter timeframe. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than ABBV but that trades at less than 5 times its earnings, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock.

The quarter was characterised by, strong sales, expansion of the development pipeline, and continued investor confidence across key launches. As Ras Al Khaimah accelerates its trajectory as a global investment hub, RAK Properties is demonstrating its role as a performance-led developer with a long-term strategic outlook. STRONG Q1 2025 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE RAK Properties reported revenue of AED 370 million in Q1 2025, reflecting an increase of 28% compared to the same period in 2024.

Projects including Bay Views, Edge, and Quattro Del Mar are also advancing through key construction phases, with major contracts awarded and site works underway.

Backed by an AED 5 billion development pipeline, Mina continues to evolve as a strategic pillar of Ras Al Khaimah's tourism and investment vision, blending residential, retail, hospitality and waterfront infrastructure. A landmark agreement was signed with Four Seasons to develop a luxury resort and branded residences — marking the brand's first presence in the Emirate. Further partnerships include Nikki Beach, which will launch Nikki Beach Resort & Spa Ras Al Khaimah at Mina, and Porto Playa by Ellington, introducing a new design-focused residential offering. The strategic roll-out of branded offerings at Mina reflects the Company's focus on driving the luxury segment within its portfolio. These high-impact partnerships are designed to anchor Mina as a premium waterfront address, support long-term value creation, and elevate the Emirate's appeal to global investors. Product launches in Q1 included Mirasol, a resort-inspired waterfront community, and SKAI, a contemporary residential tower in the Harbour District, both generating strong investor interest. A key placemaking milestone was the unveiling of Mina Boulevard, a curated retail and dining promenade designed to activate the community year-round. Enhanced connectivity, including a forthcoming hydrofoil service linking Ras Al Khaimah to Dubai, and a fully integrated marina and yacht club, further positions Mina as a compelling destination for residents and visitors.
