Wells Fargo initiates Steel Dynamics as overweight Wells said it likes companies that have exposure to the U.S. "We prefer names with U.S. exposure, as we see steel prices supported by a drop in imports and inventory into year-end that can support mill pricing power. Top picks include STLD and CMC, while we're less confident in imminent relief from excess Chinese supply for more global players TX and MT." UBS initiates SiTime as buy UBS said the semis company has "big AI leverage." "We initiate coverage of SiTime (SITM) with a Buy rating and $260 PT (20% upside)."

The feedback on CEO Hult is unanimous and consistent. He is a hands-on, attention to details operator." Deutsche Bank reiterates Amazon as buy Deutsche said it's cautiously optimistic on Amazon's grocery strategy. "Early yesterday, Amazon announced what it called "one of the most significant grocery expansions" in the company's history, with free SameDay delivery for US Prime users on perishable orders of $35 or more. While, Amazon's grocery strategy has been a bit of a moving target, and success has been uneven, we do believe that the new product could prove meaningful to Amazon's grocery volume in the medium term." HSBC upgrades dLocal to buy from neutral HSBC upgraded the fintech company following earnings. " dLocal has been exhibiting low earnings volatility and improving disclosures over the past year, and finally this quarter we saw a big EBIT beat (despite some one-off trends) and continued strong volumes." Mizuho upgrades MAA to outperform from neutral Mizuho said the real estate investment trust has an "underleveraged balance sheet." "We upgrade MAA t o Outperform ($150PT), given: accelerating blended rents into 2H25 and accelerating core and FFO/sh growth into 2026e; falling supply across MAA's core markets, suggesting less operating risk and supporting rent improvement; underleveraged balance sheet supporting external growth and further capital deployment."

"We're raising our PT to $14/sh, based on a DCF framework: $8/sh of base value and $6/sh of terminal value (2030+). ... We continue to view RUN as a top pick in the residential solar space." Read more. Citi reiterates Microsoft as buy Citi said the tech giant remains a top idea at the firm.

Barclays initiates Schrodinger as overweight Barclays said shares of the biotech company have plenty more room to run. " Schrödinger (SDGR) has a physics-based drug discovery platform that drives revenues, is used to develop partnered therapeutics programs, and helps fund and internally develop their own early stage pipeline of therapeutics."

Costco Just Rolled Out 2 New Membership Perks That Might Finally Convince You to Upgrade
Costco memberships already come with plenty of perks, from the adored Kirkland brand items to unexpected services (hello, travel planning and home installation services!). But if you're a Gold Card member, the latest Costco announcements may inspire you to upgrade to the executive level. The latest perks: early, VIP-only shopping privileges—and a $10 monthly credit each month if you skip the store altogether and use same-day delivery via Instacart or Costco's own Same Day service. Early-bird shopping: The new, early-bird shopping starts June 30, according to a Costco Instagram post, and allows executive members to get into the store right at 9 a.m. to help beat the crowds and the traffic jam at the checkout. Save on same-day delivery orders: The $10 monthly credit is applied to one same-day order per month that's $150 and over, according to a Costco press release. Couple these perks with the 2% annual reward that Costco offers its executive members, and you may want to start doing the math on whether an executive membership makes sense for you—especially if you'd use that early bird shopping time. So if you're a heavy Costco shopper (you'd need to spend $3,250 per year to break even on the extra $65 for the executive membership—or get several $150 deliveries over the course of the year), it may be time to upgrade and get not only the cash back, but also the opportunity to head to the checkout before the gold members even walk through the door.
