CNN: China's stock market had a terrible 2018. This year could be a lot better

China's beaten down stock market could be headed for a rebound.

The benchmark Shanghai Composite was the world's worst performing major stock market last year, tumbling more than 25%. It was weighed down by fears about China's slowing economy and the trade war with the United States. READ MORE...

Blaize Holdings, Inc. (BZAI) focuses on artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled edge computing solutions, offering programmable AI processors and platforms for verticals such as smart cities, defense, retail, and enterprise markets. The company's core revolves around hardware like the Graph Streaming Processor (GSP) AI accelerator, compute cards, and software tools including Blaize AI Studio—a no-code/low-code environment for deploying AI models without source code expertise. Based in El Dorado Hills, California, and founded in 2010, it went public through a merger in early 2025.
Comstock Holding Companies, Inc. (CHCI) operates as an asset manager, developer, and operator of mixed-use and transit-oriented properties, mainly in the greater Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. The company targets high-growth urban and suburban markets, overseeing a portfolio that spans residential, commercial, hospitality, and parking assets near key metro stations.

Sable Offshore Corp. (SOC) is an independent oil and gas company focused on offshore operations in federal waters off California. The company owns and operates three platforms in the Santa Ynez Unit (SYU), spanning 16 federal leases across approximately 76,000 acres, along with subsea pipelines for crude oil, natural gas, and produced water transport to onshore facilities. Its core business model centers on restarting and developing prolific fields like the SYU, which had been idle due to regulatory and legal hurdles following a 2015 pipeline spill.
I've always been impressed by how Visa (V) commands the global payments landscape. As an open-loop network, it connects issuers, acquirers, merchants, and consumers without issuing cards or extending credit itself. The VisaNet platform processes over 65,000 transactions per second across more than 200 countries, supporting a ~52% share of the global credit card market and ~60% of debit. This scale generates powerful network effects, where greater adoption benefits everyone involved and creates formidable barriers to entry.
Following the Kenvue consumer health spin-off, Johnson & Johnson has transformed into a focused healthcare leader, emphasizing Innovative Medicine (pharmaceuticals) and MedTech (devices). In my view, this repositioning sharpens the company's edge in high-margin areas such as oncology, immunology, neuroscience, cardiovascular, surgery, and vision, where its diversified portfolio and R&D efficiency provide clear competitive advantages.
I've long appreciated ASML Holding N.V.'s dominant position in the semiconductor lithography market. The company commands over 90% share in advanced deep ultraviolet (DUV) immersion systems and 100% in EUV lithography—the critical technology for chips below 7nm nodes used in AI, high-performance computing, and memory. This near-monopoly comes from decades of R&D investment, exclusive partnerships like Zeiss for optics, and a vast installed base that generates steady service revenue. From what I see, competitors such as Nikon and Canon remain far behind in EUV, sticking to mature nodes.
I've been watching Micron Technology (MU) closely through its recent volatility, which mirrors the semiconductor sector's heightened sensitivity to AI demand and supply constraints. The stock saw a sharp post-earnings sell-off tied to elevated capital expenditure plans, yet it has rebounded with surging DRAM prices—up 90-95%—and memory suppliers booked out for years. From what I see, broader tech optimism, including key partnerships and persistent supply tightness, is driving upward momentum. This positions MU as a pivotal player in high-bandwidth memory (HBM) for data centers. Trading near recent highs around $368, the shares highlight investor focus on Micron's critical role in the AI infrastructure expansion under these constrained industry conditions.
I've always appreciated how Mastercard (MA) maintains a commanding position in the global payments industry, processing transactions across 3.4 billion cards at 150 million merchant locations worldwide. The network effects here create a formidable moat—increased adoption by issuers, acquirers, and consumers just reinforces its dominance. What stands out to me is how Mastercard is evolving beyond a pure processor into a services-first platform. Value-added services (VAS)—covering cybersecurity, data analytics, and consulting—are now approaching 40% of revenues and growing at double the rate of traditional payments.
MU shares are declining approximately -6.00% in premarket trading on April 2, 2026, pulling back to roughly $353.70 from the prior session's close of $376.27. The primary catalyst is a sweeping new round of tariff announcements from the Trump administration, dubbed by markets as "Liberation Day 2.0," which has sparked a broad risk-off selloff across technology and semiconductor stocks
Shares of Robinhood Markets are down approximately 6.15% in Thursday's intraday session, trading around $65.80 after closing at $70.11 on April 1, 2026. Wolfe Research delivered a sharp blow by cutting its price target on HOOD by 30%, citing persistent weakness in crypto trading volumes as a core drag on revenue.
Shares of Iridium Communications (IRDM) surged approximately +11.00% in Thursday's session, rising from a prior close of $28.52 to an intraday high near $31.76. A broad-based equity market rally drove significant gains across communication and satellite sector stocks, as investor sentiment sharply reversed after days of macro-driven selling pressure tied to tariff fears.
AirSculpt Technologies, Inc. (AIRS) stands out as a leading provider of minimally invasive body contouring procedures through its Elite Body Sculpture brand. The company specializes in proprietary AirSculpt treatments that remove fat and tighten skin without general anesthesia. These include options like AirSculpt+, AirSculpt Smooth for cellulite reduction, and specialized fat transfer procedures such as Power BBL for Brazilian butt lifts, Up a Cup for breast enhancement, and Hip Flip for hourglass contouring. Based in Miami Beach, Florida, and founded in 2012, AIRS operates centers across the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
ASRT stock surged +66% over the past 30 days, driven by strong Q4 2025 earnings beat and optimistic 2026 guidance highlighting Rolvedon growth. Over the past quarter, the stock rose +117%, fueled by improving gross margins, stable product demand, and analyst price target increases.
