Shaq's Record-Breaking Walmart Spree Ends In Credit Card Decline: 'I Told Them I'd Be Back, Then The American Express Security Guard Called Me' |

NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal once faced a credit card decline during a record-setting shopping spree at Walmart.
What Happened: O’Neal’s lavish spending habits led to a notable incident at Walmart. The shopping spree occurred after he was traded from the Miami Heat to the Phoenix Suns, leaving him with an empty apartment to furnish.
“I have the biggest purchase in Walmart history, $70,000. I got traded from Miami to Phoenix, and I'm the type of guy I have no patience. When I get to Phoenix, they have an apartment for me; nothing is in it." he said during an interview.
O’Neal said that his shopping list was comprehensive, including multiple TVs, laptops, appliances, and clothing items. However, his credit card was declined due to the large amount.
O’Neal further added, “So at the end, it was $70,000, so I put my card in it, and it declined. Then, pulled it out, put it again, and it declined again.”
He was subsequently contacted by American Express security, who suspected his card had been stolen and used for the substantial Walmart purchase.

"So I told them I'd be back, and then the American Express security guard called me, ‘Hey man, somebody stole your credit card and spent $70,000 at Walmart,' and I said no, that was me," O'Neal added.
Despite this incident, O’Neal has since become renowned for his financial acumen, advising younger players and making significant charitable contributions.
This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of financial literacy and the need for vigilance in monitoring large transactions, even for high-profile individuals like O’Neal.
It also highlights the stringent security measures in place by credit card companies to prevent fraudulent activities.

Where Will Berkshire Hathaway Be in 1 Year? |

Key Points
Berkshire Hathaway is the investment vehicle of Warren Buffett and his team. The company's stock has vastly outperformed the broader market, thanks to the way in which Buffett invests. Berkshire Hathaway is about to see a huge change in the way it's run. 10 stocks we like better than Berkshire Hathaway ›
Berkshire Hathaway(NYSE: BRK.A)(NYSE: BRK.B) is an interesting name. Today it represents the conglomerate that Warren Buffett built. But, before Buffett bought the company, it was a failing clothing business. That clothing business ultimately closed under Buffett's watch, representing one of his most prominent failed investments.
A long run of good investments has turned that failure into a huge success. However, in one year's time, there's going to be a very big change at Berkshire Hathaway.
What does Berkshire Hathaway do?
Berkshire Hathaway is a conglomerate. Conglomerates often operate in a few different business lines, sometimes with each business having its own brand identity. Berkshire Hathaway took that model and ran with it. At the end of 2024, Berkshire Hathaway had 189 subsidiary companies!Image source: The Motley Fool.
But that's not the whole story. That list of 189 companies includes a couple of large insurance businesses. Insurance companies collect insurance premiums up front and they pay out money to cover losses in the future. The premiums get invested until the cash is needed to fund payouts. This is what's known as "float" on Wall Street. Insurance companies can keep whatever they earn on the float.
Berkshire Hathaway has long invested the float in the stock market, with a large portfolio of stocks augmenting its owned businesses. Some of the company's long-term holdings include Coca-Cola(NYSE: KO), American Express(NYSE: AXP), and Chevron(NYSE: CVX). That diversity is replicated in the company's owned investments, in a wide-ranging investment portfolio.
Essentially, Berkshire Hathaway is something like a mutual fund. When you buy the stock, you are, effectively, investing alongside CEO Warren Buffett. As the chart below highlights, doing so has worked out very well for investors over the long term.BRK.A Total Return Level data by YCharts.
Things are about to change at Berkshire Hathaway
So, from a big-picture perspective, buying Berkshire Hathaway is really buying into Buffett's investment approach. To briefly summarize that approach, Buffett likes to buy well-run companies while they are attractively valued and then hold them for the long term to benefit from the growth of their businesses. Simple to say, hard to do. Yet, clearly, Buffett has executed his investment approach incredibly well over time.
Story Continues
At the end of 2025, he is going to retire as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, handing the reins to Greg Abel. Since Abel isn't Buffett, the company will inherently be different one year from now. The question is: How different?
The good news on this front is that Buffett isn't cutting and running. He is slated to remain as the chairman of the board of directors. So Abel is, technically, still Buffett's employee. Buffett generally takes a hands-off approach, but if Abel is struggling, it's likely Buffett will step in to help.
There's also the fact that Abel has worked for Berkshire for over two decades. So he is steeped in the Oracle of Omaha's approach. Because he is a different person, there will inherently be differences in the way he approaches the CEO role. But given his long association with such a successful CEO, it also seems likely that he will try his best to heavily incorporate Warren Buffett's teachings into whatever he does.
Different, but not that different
As an investor, if you're worried that Buffett stepping down will lead to Berkshire Hathaway dramatically changing the way it is run, that's probably not going to happen. Still, the CEO change is material, so investors should keep a regular eye on the business. The company will be different in an important way in a year, with Abel stepping in to fill Buffett's very large shoes. But the basic approach taken at the top of the company probably won't be so different that Berkshire Hathaway will become a completely different company overnight.

Is Capital One About to Create the Biggest Payment Network In America? Here's What Investors Need to Know. |
|
**Haftungsausschluss: Der Text wurde mit Hilfe einer KI zusammengefasst und übersetzt. Für Aussagen aus dem Originaltext wird keine Haftung übernommen!**
Key Points
Capital One was already a major credit card issuer. Now it’s also got a payment network presence. The credit card giant is also a bank, even if it’s not yet done a great deal of business-building on this front. Despite the stock’s firm gains for the past couple of years, the analyst community says there’s more upside immediately ahead. 10 stocks we like better than Capital One Financial ›
On the surface they're all just credit card companies, by virtue of all being in the card-payment business. Dig deeper though. Most of the major players in the industry are distinctly different from one another, with some of them even being dependent on one another.
And this reality translates into opportunity for Capital One Financial(NYSE: COF) following its recently completed acquisition of credit card company Discover. With this move, Capital One is positioned to threaten the dominant reach of Visa(NYSE: V) and Mastercard(NYSE: MA), while simultaneously putting more direct competitive pressure on all-inclusive competitor American Express(NYSE: AXP).
Here's what investors need to know.
It's (kinda) complicated
Contrary to a common assumption, they're not all the same.
Consumers rarely think about it, but the Visa or Mastercard cards likely to be in your wallet or purse are neither issued by Visa nor Mastercard. Although one or the other's name appears on the card, a bank like JP Morgan's Chase or Citigroup is actually the issuer, providing all the service (including the billing) your account requires. Banks simply need -- and pay -- Visa or Mastercard to facilitate your purchases using their payment networks extending out to tens of millions of retailers, restaurants, and other types of consumer-facing businesses all over the world. Capital One's cards either rely on Visa or Mastercard to serve as their point-of-purchase middleman.Image source: Getty Images.
American Express and Discover are different. They're the card issuer as well as the payment network, although neither of their networks are nearly as big as Mastercard's or Visa's. Indeed, Capital One says Discover's network only facilitates about 2% of the United States' total card transactions, and only 1% of the entire world's. American Express's U.S. share is 11%, for perspective. The rest, of course, are Mastercard's and Visa's.
Still, while its business may be smaller, Discover is collecting more net revenue per transaction by not needing third-party payment networks like Visa or Mastercard.
And as of May, Capital One wholly owns Discover.
Story Continues
Casting a wider net
Capital One hasn't expressly said it, but it's pretty obvious where all of this is going -- the company intends to leverage both brand names as well as Discover's payment network to become a more complete and competitive player.
That's easier said than done. Even if the combined companies are willing to offer merchants better terms than Visa, Mastercard, or American Express, there are still significant challenges. Chief among them is reach, or lack thereof.
Even though Discover cards are accepted almost everywhere any credit cards can be used to make a purchase, clearly consumers remain far more comfortable with established names like Visa and Mastercard, and more familiar issuers like Chase or Bank of America. Again, Discover only handles about 2% of the nation's card-based purchases, while its 72 million worldwide cardholders are only a fraction of the 1 billion-plus that both Visa and Mastercard boast.
Don't count Capital One out just yet though. It's still got a lever to pull. That's Capital One's huge customer. It's consistently one of the top five issuers in terms of total payments, total card balances, and total purchase volume. Merchants -- and U.S. merchants in particular -- can't simply pretend the company doesn't support a sizable chunk of their total revenue.
Capital One is also a chartered bank. It's not a massive one, but it's not an insignificant one either. Federal Reserve data indicates that with nearly $650 billion in total assets, Capital One is the United States' sixth-biggest banking entity, right behind U.S. Bank, and right in front of Goldman Sachs. Although it hasn't done a great deal yet in terms of offering traditional banking services, if it wanted to, it's certainly got the option of making itself something more like all-inclusive and fast-growing online-banking name SoFi.
More to the point for interested investors, Capital One's entire business ecosystem is increasingly complete, with some pockets of existing scale already in place. The weakest link is arguably its relatively tiny payment network. But, never say never.
It doesn't need the biggest payment network to reward shareholders
But the question remains. Is Capital One going to turn Discover's card-payment network into the country's biggest?
Probably not.
That's not a dig against Discover or Capital One. It's just realistic. Visa and Mastercard are deeply entrenched. Even American Express is established with its small but growing cardholder base. The market may not need a major fourth option; the business is pretty price-competitive already.
Nevertheless, for would-be investors there's little downside risk here, but a respectable degree of potential growth. It's unlikely Discover's payment network is going to get any smaller. Capital One does, however, have several tools in its toolbox it could use to expand its footprint. And even just growing it from its current share of 2% to a mere 4% of the U.S. market would double its size. That's not insignificant for the company even if it is insignificant for entire payment processing sliver of the business.
This might help convince you: Despite the stock's persistent bullishness since late 2023, the analyst community's consensus target of $255.52 is still 20% above the stock's current price. That suggests there's some underappreciated upside with the recent union of Discover and Capital One.

Wenn ich nur eine Aktie aus jedem S&P 500 Sektor für den Rest von 2025 kaufen könnte, würde ich diese 11 Dividendenak |

**Haftungsausschluss: Der Text wurde mit Hilfe einer KI zusammengefasst und übersetzt. Für Aussagen aus dem Originaltext wird keine Haftung übernommen!**
Okay, here's a 400-word summary of the text, followed by a German translation:
**Summary (English)**
The S&P 500 is heavily influenced by certain market sectors, while others have a minimal impact. Understanding sector diversification is crucial for investors looking to generate passive income. The Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) categorizes stocks into sectors, allowing investors to compare companies and track broader market movements. However, the system isn’t perfect, as companies can span multiple sectors.
This article highlights five key stocks selected for their dividend yield and potential for passive income generation.
**1. Technology (Texas Instruments - TXN):** Technology accounts for over a third of the S&P 500. Texas Instruments, a long-standing semiconductor manufacturer, is the recommended pick. It’s not solely focused on AI, offering a diversified business model and benefiting from the growth of “edge AI.” With 21 consecutive years of dividend increases and a 2.7% yield, it’s a stable option for tech exposure.
**2. Financials (American Express - AXP):** The financial sector, the second largest, is represented by American Express. This company’s strength lies in its dual role as a payment processor and card issuer. Its proven ability to manage risk, reflected in a low net write-off rate, makes it a reliable choice.
**3. Consumer Discretionary (Starbucks - SBUX):** This sector, representing 10.4% of the S&P 500, is highly cyclical. Starbucks is highlighted due to a successful turnaround, driven by new leadership, and a consistent dividend payout (14 years of increases with a 2.7% yield).
**4. Communications (Alphabet - GOOGL/GOOG):** Alphabet is chosen for its diversified business model and relatively cheap valuation, despite concerns about Google Search. The adoption of Google’s chatbot, Gemini, is increasing. Although a relatively low yield (0.4%), the company recently started paying a dividend.
**5. Healthcare (Eli Lilly - LLY):** Despite pressures on the healthcare sector, Eli Lilly is recommended due to its existing drugs (particularly for weight loss and diabetes) and a robust pipeline of new medications.

**Zusammenfassung (Deutsch)**
Der S&P 500 wird stark von bestimmten Marktsektoren beeinflusst, während andere nur einen geringen Einfluss haben. Das Verständnis von Sektor-Diversifizierung ist für Investoren entscheidend, die passives Einkommen generieren möchten. Der Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) kategorisiert Aktien in Sektoren, sodass Investoren Unternehmen vergleichen und breitere Marktbewegungen verfolgen können. Das System ist jedoch nicht perfekt, da Unternehmen über mehrere Sektoren verfügen können.
Dieser Artikel beleuchtet fünf Schlüsselaktien, die aufgrund ihrer Dividendenrendite und ihres Potenzials zur Generierung passiven Einkommens ausgewählt wurden.
**1. Technologie (Texas Instruments – TXN):** Der Technologiesektor macht über ein Drittel des S&P 500 aus. Texas Instruments, ein etabliertes Halbleiterhersteller, ist die empfohlene Wahl. Es konzentriert sich nicht ausschließlich auf KI und bietet ein diversifiziertes Geschäftsmodell, das vom Wachstum von „Edge AI“ profitiert. Mit 21 Jahren kontinuierlicher Dividendenausschüttungen und einer Rendite von 2,7 % ist es eine stabile Option für Technologieinvestitionen.
**2. Financials (American Express – AXP):** Der Financials-Sektor, der zweitgrößter, wird durch American Express dargestellt. Dieses Unternehmen ist aufgrund seiner Doppelrolle als Zahlungsabwickler und Kreditkartenherausgeber stark. Seine nachgewiesene Fähigkeit, Risiken zu managen, die sich in einer niedrigen Netto-Schreibabgabe widerspiegelt, macht es zu einer zuverlässigen Wahl.
**3. Consumer Discretionary (Starbucks – SBUX):** Dieser Sektor, der 10,4 % des S&P 500 ausmacht, ist sehr zyklisch. Starbucks wird hervorgehoben aufgrund eines erfolgreichen Umbruchs, der durch neue Führungskräfte angetrieben wird, und einer konsistenten Dividendenausschüttung (14 Jahre Erhöhungen mit einer Rendite von 2,7 %).
**4. Communications (Alphabet – GOOGL/GOOG):** Alphabet wird aufgrund seines diversifizierten Geschäftsmodells und seiner relativ niedrigen Bewertung ausgewählt, trotz Bedenken hinsichtlich von Google Search. Die Akzeptanz von Googles Chatbot, Gemini, nimmt zu. Auch wenn es sich um eine relativ niedrige Rendite (0,4 %) handelt, hat das Unternehmen kürzlich mit einer Dividende begonnen.
**5. Healthcare (Eli Lilly – LLY):** Obwohl der Gesundheitssektor unter Druck steht, wird Eli Lilly aufgrund seiner bestehenden Medikamente (insbesondere zur Gewichtsabnahme und Diabetes) und seiner robusten Pipeline neuer Medikamente empfohlen. |

Der Dow Jones mit seinem ersten Rekordhoch des Jahres – Geschichte geschrieben! |

**Haftungsausschluss: Der Text wurde mit Hilfe einer KI zusammengefasst und übersetzt. Für Aussagen aus dem Originaltext wird keine Haftung übernommen!**
Here’s a 400-word summary of the provided text about Wall Street, focusing on the Dow Jones Industrial Average:
**Dow Jones Hits New Milestone, Continuing Historic Run**
Wall Street is experiencing a remarkably bullish trend, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) achieving a significant milestone. On Friday, the Dow closed at 45,631.74 points, marking a 1.89% increase and surpassing its previous record close of 45,014.04 points set on December 4, 2024. This achievement is particularly noteworthy as it represents the 13th consecutive year the Dow has seen at least one all-time high, surpassing the previous record of 12 years set between 1989 and 2000.
The strong performance is driven by a favorable composition within the index. Currently, only six of the 30 companies within the Dow are experiencing negative YTD (Year-to-Date) returns. These include UnitedHealth (-39.2%), Salesforce (-25.7%), Merck (-12.2%), Apple (-9.1%), Procter & Gamble (-5.4%), and Honeywell (-1.4%).
Conversely, the Dow is fueled by substantial gains from a group of 24 companies. Nvidia leads the way with a remarkable 32.5% YTD increase, followed closely by Boeing (30%), Goldman Sachs (29.6%), Johnson & Johnson (24%), JPMorgan (23.6%), and 3M (23%). Other top performers include Microsoft (20.3%), Caterpillar (20.1%), Travelers (14.7%), Cisco (13.7%), and Amgen (12.7%).
The success of these individual companies reflects broader market trends, with investors heavily favoring technology and energy stocks. The market’s strength is supported by several Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) that track the Dow, including DIA, DDM, UDOW, DOG, DXD, and SDOW.
Recent commentary, particularly surrounding the Federal Reserve’s Jackson Hole meeting, suggests a likely anticipation of rate cuts, further bolstering investor confidence. The meeting is generating debate, with some analysts questioning whether rate cuts will occur as quickly as initially predicted.
Overall, the Dow’s historic run demonstrates sustained investor optimism and highlights the dynamic nature of the U.S. stock market. |

Here's a German translation of the text, aiming for clarity and a natural flow:
**Warren Buffett’s Evergreen Investments: Moody’s, American Express, and Chubb**
Warren Buffett, Chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, has recently shifted Berkshire’s strategy, reducing stakes in some top holdings and hoarding cash. However, he has maintained significant positions in three “evergreen” stocks – Moody’s (MCO), American Express (AXP), and Chubb Limited (CB) – suggesting a steadfast belief in their long-term resilience. These companies represent solid investments even in a potentially peaking market.
**Moody’s:** Moody’s is a leading provider of financial data, credit ratings, and analytics. Its business thrives regardless of market conditions. Economic downturns often increase demand for its services as companies seek to make informed decisions during uncertainty. Analysts predict steady revenue and earnings growth for Moody’s (7% and 13% respectively from 2024-2027), justifying a valuation of 36 times next year’s earnings. Buffett’s $12.6 billion stake, initiated in 2000, underscores this confidence.
**American Express:** Buffett's long-held investment in American Express demonstrates its ability to withstand economic volatility. Unlike Visa and Mastercard, American Express issues its own branded cards backed by its own bank. This model benefits from lower interest rates, driving consumer spending, while higher rates boost bank profits. Analysts project revenue and EPS growth of 8% and 12% respectively (2024-2027) and a valuation of 18 times next year’s earnings.
**Chubb Limited:** Even amidst Berkshire’s strategic shifts, Chubb remains a key holding. Its diversified insurance business is designed to navigate economic fluctuations, and analysts anticipate continued growth (8% and 12% revenue and EPS respectively from 2024-2027).

Okay, here’s a summary of the text within 400 words, followed by a German translation:
**Summary (English)**
Following Jerome Powell’s surprisingly dovish comments at the Jackson Hole symposium, the stock market experienced a significant rebound. Powell indicated that the Federal Reserve might soon consider reducing interest rates, fueled by moderating inflation and low unemployment. This news dramatically eased investor anxieties about persistently high rates and their negative effects on economic growth, triggering a broad market rally.
The market’s tendency to overreact to news fueled the gains. Specifically, several sectors benefited significantly. Investment banking firm Perella Weinberg (PWP) saw a substantial jump (5.8%), followed closely by Property & Casualty Insurance company Stewart Information Services (STC) (4.2%), Regional Banks Home Bancshares (HOMB) (4.1%) and BOK Financial (BOKF) (4.4%) and Credit Card company American Express (AXP) (3.7%).
Perella Weinberg’s stock is notably volatile, having experienced 19 moves exceeding 5% in the past year. Despite being down 5.2% year-to-date and trading 15.4% below its 52-week high, the current jump suggests the market views the news positively, without fundamentally altering its assessment of the company. The text highlights the potential impact of generative AI on large corporations, noting the high valuations of Nvidia and AMD while advocating for a lesser-known semiconductor company benefiting from this trend. The article encourages readers to access a free report detailing this “favorite semiconductor growth story”.
**German Translation**
**Was Ist Geschehen?**
Nach den überraschend nachlassenden Aussagen von Jerome Powell auf dem Jackson-Hole-Symposium erlebte die Aktienmärkte eine deutliche Erholung. Powell deutete an, dass die US-Notenbank möglicherweise bald die Zinssätze senken könnte, gestützt auf sinkende Inflationsraten und die geringe Arbeitslosigkeit. Diese Nachricht linderte die Anlegerängste hinsichtlich anhaltend hoher Zinsen und deren negativer Auswirkung auf das Wirtschaftswachstum erheblich und löste einen breiten Marktrenditen aus.
Die Tendenz des Marktes, auf Nachrichten überreagiert zu haben, trieb die Gewinne an. Insbesondere profitierten mehrere Sektoren erheblich. Das Investmentbanking-Unternehmen Perella Weinberg (PWP) verzeichnete einen beträchtlichen Anstieg (5,8 %), gefolgt von der Property & Casualty Versicherung Stewart Information Services (STC) (4,2 %), Regionalbanken Home Bancshares (HOMB) (4,1 %) und BOK Financial (BOKF) (4,4 %) und der Kreditkartenfirma American Express (AXP) (3,7 %).
Perellas Weinbergs Aktien sind bemerkenswert volatil und haben in der letzten Zeit 19 Bewegungen über 5 % erlebt. Trotz eines Rückgangs um 5,2 % im Jahr und einem Kurs von 22,33 USD pro Aktie, die 15,4 % unter dem 52-Wochen-Hoch von 26,41 USD liegt, deutet die aktuelle Steigerung darauf hin, dass der Markt die Nachricht positiv bewertet, ohne die Wahrnehmung des Unternehmens grundlegend zu verändern. Der Text hebt die potenziellen Auswirkungen von generativer KI auf große Unternehmen hervor und weist auf die hohen Bewertungen von Nvidia und AMD hin, während er für ein weniger bekanntes Halbleiterunternehmen, das von diesem Trend profitiert, plädiert. Die Artikel fordert die Leser auf, einen kostenlosen Bericht zu erhalten, der diese „Lieblings-Wachstumsgeschichte“ im Halbleiterbereich beschreibt.

**Summary (English):**
Friday’s midday trading session saw significant gains across several sectors, primarily driven by speculation surrounding potential interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. The housing sector led the charge, with Builders FirstSource and Mohawk Industries rising 8% and 7% respectively, fueled by the anticipation of lower borrowing costs boosting the home construction industry. Lennar also saw a significant increase.
Simultaneously, the semiconductor industry experienced a surge, mirroring the broader market optimism. VanEck Semiconductor (SMH) climbed nearly 3%, while Microchip Technology and On Semiconductor jumped more than 5%. Nvidia and Broadcom also contributed positively to the gains.
The construction equipment maker, Caterpillar, added 4%, further contributing to the Dow Industrials’ record high, reflecting the positive outlook for commercial and industrial activity due to the anticipated rate cuts.
Within the financial sector, Goldman Sachs and American Express jumped 3.7% and 4% respectively, reflecting the market's hope for a shift in monetary policy. Regional banks, tracked by the SPDR S & P Regional Banking ETF (KRE), also benefited, rising more than 4%.
However, not all stocks saw gains. Intuit retreated by over 4% despite strong fourth-quarter results, as weaker-than-expected first-quarter revenue growth disappointed investors. Workday experienced a 3% decline following guidance that fell short of analyst expectations. Zoom Communications, however, surged more than 10% after its second-quarter results exceeded expectations. Finally, RLX Technology, a China-based e-vapor company, jumped more than 7% due to strong Q2 results. Cenovus Energy rose 4% after announcing the acquisition of MEG Energy.

**Zusammenfassung (Deutsch):**
Die Mitttagstätigkeit des Freitage handelte sich durch Spekulationen über mögliche Zinssenkungen der Federal Reserve deutlich. Der Wohnungssektor führte das Feld an, wobei Builders FirstSource und Mohawk Industries um 8 bzw. 7 % stiegen, angetrieben durch die Erwartung, dass niedrigere Kreditkosten den Wohnungsbau ankurbeln würden. Lennar verzeichnete ebenfalls einen deutlichen Anstieg.
Gleichzeitig erlebte die Halbleiterindustrie einen Anstieg, der das allgemeine Marktoptimismus widerspiegelte. VanEck Semiconductor (SMH) stieg um fast 3 %, während Microchip Technology und On Semiconductor um mehr als 5 % stiegen. Nvidia und Broadcom trugen ebenfalls positiv zum Gewinn bei.
Der Fertigungsmaschinenhersteller Caterpillar stieg um 4 %, was zur Erreicherung des Dow Industrials beitrug, das aufgrund der erwarteten Zinssenkungen einen neuen Höchststand erreichte, und spiegelte die positive Aussicht auf kommerzielle und industrielle Aktivitäten wider.
Innerhalb des Finanzsektors stiegen Goldman Sachs und American Express um 3,7 bzw. 4 %, was die Markterwartung einer Änderung der Geldpolitik widerspiegelte. Regionalbanken, die vom SPDR S & P Regional Banking ETF (KRE) verfolgt wurden, profitierten ebenfalls, wobei sie um mehr als 4 % stiegen. Intuit fiel jedoch um mehr als 4 % trotz starker Quartalsergebnisse, da das schwächere erste Quartalsumsatzwachstum Investoren enttäuschte. Workday verzeichnete einen Rückgang von 3 % nach Guidance, das die Erwartungen der Analysten verfehlte. Zoom Communications stieg um mehr als 10 % nach Veröffentlichung der zweiten Quartalsergebnisse. Schließlich stieg RLX Technology, ein chinesischer E-Vapor-Unternehmer, um mehr als 7 % aufgrund starker Q2-Ergebnisse. Cenovus Energy stieg um 4 % nach der Bekanntgabe der Übernahme von MEG Energy.

Okay, here’s a summary of the text in approximately 400 words, followed by a German translation:
**Summary (English):**
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) has hit a new intraday all-time high of over 45,690 points. This follows a previous record reached on Tuesday, which then retreated slightly. The index closed at 45,014.04 points on December 4, 2024. Currently, the Dow is up 2% on Friday, demonstrating strong year-to-date growth of 7.34% and a 11.68% increase from a year ago.
Several key stocks are driving this positive momentum. American Express (AXP), Home Depot (HD), Caterpillar (CAT), Goldman Sachs (GS), Sherwin-Williams (SHW), Boeing (BA), Nike (NKE), Walt Disney (DIS) and 3M (MMM) have all seen significant gains, with American Express and Disney leading the pack with gains of 4% and 2.7% respectively. These gains are reflected in Seeking Alpha's Quant ratings, which assess stocks based on "Quantamental" analysis – combining quantitative data with fundamental value assessments.
However, not all stocks are performing equally well. Verizon Communications (VZ), Coca-Cola (KO), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), and Procter & Gamble (PG) are experiencing slight declines.
Seeking Alpha’s Quant system utilizes powerful computer processing to generate stock ratings based on metrics including value, growth, profitability, earnings per share revisions, and price momentum. These ratings offer investors a data-driven perspective on potential investment opportunities.
Recent market sentiment is boosted by positive developments, including the EU-USA trade framework, and remarks by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at the Jackson Hole conference, signalling a likely increase in interest rates. Concerns remain, however, regarding market concentration and breadth, potentially indicating a bubble.

**Zusammenfassung des Dow Jones Industrial Average mit Finanz-Bar-Diagramm**
Der Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/DJI]) hat einen neuen Tageshöchststand von über 45.690 Punkten erreicht. Dies folgt auf einen zuvor erreichten Rekord am Dienstag, der dann leicht zurückging. Der Index schloss am 4. Dezember 2024 mit 45.014,04 Punkten. Der Index ist derzeit am Freitag um 2% gestiegen, was eine starke Jahres-zu-Datum-Entwicklung von 7,34% und eine Steigerung von 11,68% gegenüber einem Jahr zuvor widerspiegelt.
Mehrere Schlüsselaktien treiben diese positive Dynamik an. American Express (AXP), Home Depot (HD), Caterpillar (CAT), Goldman Sachs (GS), Sherwin-Williams (SHW), Boeing (BA), Nike (NKE), Walt Disney (DIS) und 3M (MMM) haben erhebliche Gewinne erzielt, wobei American Express und Disney mit Gewinnen von 4 % bzw. 2,7 % führend waren. Diese Gewinne spiegeln sich in den Quant-Ratings von Seeking Alpha wider, die Aktien auf der Grundlage von "Quantamental"-Analysen – die quantitative Daten mit fundamentalen Wertbewertungen kombinieren – bewerten.
Nicht alle Aktien entwickeln sich jedoch gleich gut. Verizon Communications (VZ), Coca-Cola (KO), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) und Procter & Gamble (PG) verzeichnen leichte Rückgänge.
Das Quant-System von Seeking Alpha nutzt leistungsstarke Computerverarbeitung, um Aktienbewertungen auf der Grundlage von Kennzahlen wie Wert, Wachstum, Rentabilität, Gewinn pro Aktie und Preisbewegung zu generieren. Diese Bewertungen bieten Anlegern eine datengesteuerte Perspektive auf potenzielle Investitionsmöglichkeiten.
Das aktuelle Marktumfeld wird durch positive Entwicklungen wie die EU-USA-Handelsrahmen und die Aussagen von Federal Reserve-Chef Jerome Powell auf der Jackson-Hole-Konferenz, die eine weitere Erhöhung der Zinssätze signalisieren, gestärkt. Es bestehen jedoch weiterhin Bedenken hinsichtlich der Marktdiversifizierung und -breite, was möglicherweise auf eine Blase hinweist.
