In today’s pre-mkt summary for Subscribers: Stocks fell but pared losses after reports of potential G7 coordinated strategic petroleum reserve releases, last done in 2022 during the Russia-Ukraine oil crisis. Brent crude surged to $105/bbl amid the escalating Middle East conflict and effective Strait of Hormuz closure, driving a sharp risk-off sentiment with the VIX spiking to 32. 10y yields rose while gold and silver fell modestly. Tomorrow’s Feb CPI print (pre-conflict data) will be overshadowed by next week’s FOMC meeting and updated dot plot, as investors increasingly fear stagflation from sustained high oil prices amid slowing job growth. We view the current oil shock as akin to the temporary 2022 Russia-Ukraine spike rather than a lasting supply disruption. We expect equities to reclaim new highs once the conflict de-escalates, oil retreats, and Fed rate-cut odds rise. We remain cautious on $Tesla(TSLA.US) given declining 2026-2030 estimates, extended valuation (~200x 2026 P/E), and increasing competition in unsupervised autonomy from $Alphabet - C(GOOG.US), $Baidu(BIDU.US), $Amazon(AMZN.US), and others already scaling paid rides without safety monitors.

In today’s pre-mkt summary for Subscribers: Risk-off sentiment intensified as escalating Middle East conflict halted tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, driving Brent crude +8.3% to $79/bbl and pushing 10-year Treasury yields to 3.97%. Safe-haven buying lifted precious medals while long-duration equities were hit hardest. We view the volatility as temporary; once the conflict de-escalates, oil prices will retreat, and softer Feb employment data on Friday could bolster Fed rate-cut expectations. This should allow equities to reclaim new highs supported by solid 2026 S&amp;P 500 earnings growth of +12% YoY to $310, implying a reasonable 22.2x forward P/E and 4.5% earnings yield vs sub-4.0% 10-year TYs. We remain cautious on $Tesla(TSLA.US) (no position) given declining long-term EPS estimates, rapid democratization of unsupervised autonomy by competitors ( $Alphabet - C(GOOG.US), $Baidu(BIDU.US), $Amazon(AMZN.US), others already at 850K paid unsupervised autonomous rides/week), and a stretched valuation (2026 P/E ~200x vs +40% forward EPS growth = 5x PEG, avg Mag 7 PEG 2x).

$Baidu(BIDU.US) released Q4 results after the HK close on Feb 26, 2026, and the print was lackluster. That said, with a prolonged pullback already priced in, buybacks and dividends providing a floor, and year-ahead narratives such as Kunlun Chip's IPO and potential Stock Connect inclusion, the market is unlikely to impose a sustained penalty.This quarter the company adopted a new reporting structure, splitting into AI and legacy businesses. The AI segment includes AI infrastructure, AI applications, and AI-native marketing, while most institutions are still modeling estimates under the prior framework...

$Baidu(BIDU.US) (-2.7% pre-mkt): 4Q results generally met/beat expectations although MAUs light (only 2 ests). As usual, no forward guidance included in release. Conf call 7:30am ET. 4Q RESULTS- Revs 32.74B yuan, -4.1% y/y, vs 32.66B yuan est. - Rev from iQIYI (Netflix of China) 6.79B yuan vs 6.76B est.- Adj profit per ADR 10.62 yuan vs. 9.40 yuan est.- Adj Ebitda 4.73B yuan, -32% y/y, vs 4.67B yuan est.- Monthly active users 679M, estimate 703M est (2 ests).COMMENTARY AND CONTEXT- Portfolio of AI Applications continues to scale - Accelerating International Expansion Into New Markets- Confident in ability to create lasting value in AI- Kunlunxin spin-off separate listing is progressing - Apollo Go, Baidu's autonomous ride-hailing service, reported weekly rides of over 300K during the quarter (Waymo 400K per week, TSLA &lt;100 per week). Total rides increased by 200% year over year. As of Feb 2026, cumulative rides provided to the public by Apollo Go exceeded 20 million. Entered the South Korean Market and expanded to several European markets.- Revenue from Baidu Core AI-powered Business exceeded 11B yuan in Q4, accounting for 34% of Baidu revs

BIDU 4Q25 First Take: the company adopted a new reporting framework this quarter, splitting results into AI biz. and other legacy biz.; AI includes AI infra, AI apps, and AI-native marketing. As the Street is still setting estimates under the old framework, Dolphin Research restores the prior disclosure for comparison, focusing on BIDU only and excluding iQIYI. Overall, the Q4 print was underwhelming. It was not a strong quarter. However, given the prolonged correction, buybacks providing support, and narratives such as Kunlun Chip’s IPO and potential Stock Connect inclusion later this year, we do not expect sustained penalties. On the top line, results were broadly in line with BBG consensus; overall ads slightly missed, and legacy ads were still down 26%, with the timing and pace of recovery uncertain. Cloud and other slightly beat, with cloud infra relatively strong. On opex, GAAP OP came in below expectations due to approx. RMB 700 mn in severance and some bad-debt provisions. Ex these items, lower D&amp;A and headcount optimization improved efficiency, driving Adj. OP to a modest beat. Looking at BIDU’s AI biz. in isolation, performance across the three pillars was mixed. Details follow: 1) Cloud Infra (cloud + compute): given last year’s high base (projects clustered in a short window), QoQ is more relevant. Q4 grew 35% QoQ, a decent trend. 2) AI Apps (incl. Baidu Wenku, Baidu Cloud Drive, and digital employees): flat QoQ. The cloud drive likely remained a drag. 3) AI-native marketing (agents and digital humans): edged lower QoQ; given industry trends, competition likely weighed. Watch the call for color on seasonality and other objective factors. $Baidu(BIDU.US) $BIDU-SW(09888.HK)

In today’s pre-mkt summary for Subscribers: Stocks declined amid uncertainty over new 15% global tariffs following the Supreme Court's invalidation of President Trump’s emergency levies, with added pressures from Trump’s Middle East military buildup against Iran and a severe blizzard impacting the NYC area. Gold and silver advanced and #btc stabilized after dipping below $65K. This is a pivotal week featuring Trump’s State of the Union Tuesday and $NVIDIA(NVDA.US) earnings Wednesday. We maintain our view that equities will go to new highs as cooling inflation and decelerating employment growth boost prospects for faster Fed easing, with money markets pricing two cuts by year-end, with the first likely by July. 2026 S&amp;P 500 EPS growth is projected to grow +12% YoY to $310, which implies a forward P/E of 22.3x. This implies a 4.5% earnings yield, a +40bp premium to 10yr yields, aligning with non-recessionary historical norms. On $Tesla(TSLA.US), the narrative of its unique path to generalized unsupervised autonomy has eroded as $Alphabet - C(GOOG.US), $Baidu(BIDU.US), $WeRide(WRD.US), $Pony AI(PONY.US), and $Amazon(AMZN.US) scale to 750K paid unsupervised autonomous rides weekly without safety monitors, while $NVIDIA(NVDA.US)’s decision to open its AI chips/software stack to other OEMs starting 1H 2026 effectively democratizes unsupervised autonomy.

WERIDE-W

In today’s pre-mkt summary for Subscribers: Stocks rose as sentiment improved after yesterday’s volatile session, with traders awaiting today’s release of minutes from the Jan 27-28 Fed meeting for clues in the Fed’s forward rate path. 10yr Treasury yields rose and precious metals recovered. We continue to expect equities to reach new highs as cooling inflation and slowing employment growth raise the odds of earlier Fed rate cuts, with money markets pricing in two cuts by year-end. We see stocks as neither under- or over-valued: 2026 S&amp;P 500 EPS growth of +12% implies a forward P/E of 22.1x (4.5% earnings yield) and a ~50bp premium to 10-year Treasuries, consistent with historical non-recessionary norms. We remain cautious on $Tesla(TSLA.US) as the bull case for TSLA being the only one to solve for general unsupervised autonomy continues to weaken with $Alphabet - C(GOOG.US), $Baidu(BIDU.US), $WeRide(WRD.US), $Pony AI(PONY.US), and $Amazon(AMZN.US) completing 750K paid unsupervised rides per week, and $NVIDIA(NVDA.US) about to offer its full autonomy stack to OEMs starting 1H 2026, which we believe will democratize unsupervised autonomy.
