Anker’s portable backup battery is an even better investment now that it’s nearly half off
|
Anker’s 521 PowerHouse can power up to six devices. Winter storms across the country are bringing heavy snow, rain, and — in some cases, as this Californian who briefly lost power a few days ago can attest — outages. If you want to prepare, Anker’s 521 PowerHouse can help keep your essential devices running and it’s on sale for $129.99 ($120 off) at Amazon. That is about $2 shy of its all-time low price and the best price we’ve seen since Black Friday. Anker 521 PowerHouse Where to Buy: $249.99 $129.99 at Amazon What’s impressive about the 256Wh power station is the range of devices it can handle. You can charge smaller electronics like phones, tablets, cameras, and laptops multiple times using its two USB-A ports and single USB-C port, but it also features two AC outlets and a car socket. That means it can power low-wattage appliances such as a mini fridge, portable fan or heater (on low), electric blanket, and other gear that draws up to 300 watts. You don’t need to worry it’ll die, either — Anker says the battery is designed to last up to 10 years and offers a five-year warranty. There are a few thoughtful extras, too. Small and weighing about eight pounds — roughly the same as a gallon of water — it’s relatively easy to carry thanks to its integrated handle. Anker also includes a built-in display for checking remaining battery life at a glance, along with a car charging cable. And if you’re outdoors or dealing with an extended outage, you can even recharge it using compatible solar panels — though you’ll need to buy those separately. Three more deals worth a look Google’s TV Streamer (4K) is once again on sale for $74.99 ($25 off) at Amazon and Target, which matches its best price to date. The streaming device is Google’s best yet, allowing you to stream in 4K with support for Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. Beyond streaming, it also doubles as a smart home hub, with built-in Matter support and a Thread radio that lets you control compatible smart home devices directly through the TV screen. Read our review. The PlayStation 5 version of Silent Hill 2 is down to a record low price of $27.39 ($23 off) at Amazon. You can also buy it on Xbox and PC for $34.99 instead of $69.99 from Konami and Steam. The remake of the 2001 survival horror classic features a new design, new puzzles, a reworked combat system, and a range of quality-of-life improvements, making the experience feel even scarier than before. It’s an especially fitting time to return to the foggy town with the film adaptation of Silent Hill 2 set to arrive this January. The portable Garmin inReach Messenger has dropped to a new low of $165.50 ($135 off) at Amazon. The water-resistant satellite messenger lets you stay connected when you’re off the grid, allowing you to send and receive messages, share your location, get weather reports, and trigger interactive SOS alerts even without cellular service — though a satellite subscription is required. It also supports reverse charging via USB-C, so while it’s not meant to be used as a power bank you can technically top off your phone in an emergency.

Space Mice Come Home and Start Families
|
A female mouse that spent two weeks aboard China’s space station has successfully given birth to healthy pups after returning to Earth. This marks the first time offspring have been born from mammals that have traveled in space. The birth demonstrates that short term spaceflight doesn’t impair reproductive capability and provides crucial data for understanding how space environments affect mammalian development, a critical question for future long-l duration human missions beyond Earth.

3 reasons the Lloyds share price could keep climbing in 2026
|
Long-suffering Lloyds Banking Group (LSE: LLOY) investors had cause for cheer in 2025 as the share price soared nearly 80%. As we reach the end of the year, the shares are hovering around the £1 mark. But what should we expect in 2026? Is the rally over, or can we hope for even more in the coming months? I’m still optimistic, and I want to offer three reasons. Lloyds has been through a few tough years for profits, with earnings per share (EPS) dropping in 2024. But analysts expect the 2025 full year to show a modest EPS rise, followed by a solid acceleration starting in 2026. In all, forecasts show EPS soaring 80% between 2024 and 2027. There’s an expected dividend yield of 3.4% on the cards for this year, which isn’t so great. But brokers expect it to be up at 4.9% by 2027. That’s far from the FTSE 100‘s biggest, but it’s solidly progressive. The company itself is upbeat too, as CEO Charlie Nunn spoke of “confidence in our performance for the year and our 2026 guidance” at Q3 time. These upbeat forecasts will surely boost confidence, though the current Lloyds share price does push the valuation up a bit. What’s a fair price-to-earnings (P/E) bank valuation in the current tough economic climate? It’s hard to say, but I reckon the risks mean I’d ideally want to see a bit of safety margin compared to the FTSE 100 average. And I don’t think we have that, with Lloyds on a P/E for 2025 of 14.5. Still, if those forecasts turn out accurate — which is definitely not certain — we should see that fall to around 8.5 by 2027 on the current share price. To me, that paints Lloyds shares as good value for the longer term, but close to full value in the short term. The City analysts seem to share my longer-term view, with a solid Buy consensus on the stock. Finally, I see growing signs that the UK house builders could be set for a resurgence. The long-term demand is still there, with the country still facing a serious shortage of homes. But high interest rates have held many would-be buyers back from taking the plunge. The Bank of England cut the base rate to 3.75% in December. That’s nice, but it’s still high. And the bank suggested decisions on future rate cuts could be tougher to call. Still, it’s the right direction. And any further progress in 2026 could boost sentiment towards mortgage lenders — with Lloyds being the UK’s biggest. Further rate cuts should pressure Lloyds’ interest margins, which could dent the share price. And that is a worry. But for my money, the balance leans in favour of Lloyds. Should investors consider Lloyds shares in 2026? At the current price, I’d say a cautious yes — though I think I see better value options. For me, Lloyds is a solid Hold and I’ll wait and see how the year starts out before thinking of maybe buying more. The post 3 reasons the Lloyds share price could keep climbing in 2026 appeared first on The Motley Fool UK. When investing expert Mark Rogers has a stock tip, it can pay to listen. After all, the flagship Motley Fool Share Advisor newsletter he has run for nearly a decade has provided thousands of paying members with top stock recommendations from the UK and US markets.

Considering these UK shares could help an investor on the road to a million-pound portfolio
|
Aiming for a million-pound portfolio isn’t a crazy, unrealistic goal. Sure, it’ll likely take many years to get there. But with a sound investment strategy, it’s achievable. A large part of this is targeting the right sort of UK shares. Here are some growth stocks that could help boost portfolio returns. One of the main ways to help increase a portfolio’s value is by investing most of the money in growth stocks. Typically, these are companies in rapidly-expanding sectors or firms that are innovating and becoming leaders in their fields. For example, technology. We’re seeing this sector continue to push boundaries, particularly with artificial intelligence (AI). I think this theme hasn’t finished by any stretch, so anticipate long-term gains for the leaders in this area. Granted, most of these candidates are listed in the US. But there are plenty of UK stocks making use of AI, helping to drive efficiencies and boost overall profitability. IT service and transformation providers Kainos and Softcat are both embedding AI into client solutions. Another major area is healthcare, driven by an ageing population. I feel health tech adoption will sustain healthcare demand and innovation going forward, with several UK players well-positioned to take advantage. This includes Primary Health Properties and Smith & Nephew. In theory, let’s assume an investor had a £10k lump sum to put to work, and could afford £1,000 a month to buy high-growth shares from promising sectors. Over time, the portfolio could grow to 10-20 companies. I’ll assume a long-term annualised growth rate of 10%. In this scenario, by year 22, the investment pot could be worth over £1m. Of course, forecasting this far in advance is difficult. If my sectors underperform, or even if the particular stocks don’t rally as anticipated, it could take much longer and an investor could even lose money. Renewable energy, as part of the energy transition, is a key theme for the future. Although it’s gone cooler in previous years, I feel momentum’s starting to return. One stock that I think is well placed is SSE (LSE:SSE). At the core of the investment case is the SSE Renewables division. This is one of the UK’s largest owners and developers of onshore wind, offshore wind and hydro assets. At the same time, I think investors underappreciate SSE’s exposure to electricity networks. It has a large transmission and distribution business, providing steady revenue that’s only likely to grow with time. Earlier this month, the regulator Ofgem approved a £28bn funding package for the total network for the period between 2026 and 2031. This is another reason I think the stock could be a good long-term addition to a portfolio. In terms of risks, it is subject to the regulator in other ways, including pricing power. This can be seen as a negative, and could restrict the potential for large profits in the future. Even with this, I think it’s one of a number of stocks that could be used to turbocharge a strategy for a seven-figure portfolio.

Could buying this stock at $13 be like investing in Tesla in 2011?
|
Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock went public in July 2010. And anyone who bought a decent chunk of shares not long after — say in 2011 — would have made life-changing returns over the next decade and a half. Elon Musk’s venture made electric vehicles (EVs) cool for the first time. Today, its market cap is a stonking $1.5trn, making it the eighth-largest firm in the S&P 500. In comparison, Joby Aviation (NYSE:JOBY) is a stickleback, with a $12.4bn market cap. However, I do see a couple of similarities with a young Tesla. So, could buying Joby stock today at $13 be like investing in the EV giant years ago? Toyota-backed Joby Aviation is a US firm that has pioneered electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) ‘flying taxis’. These can travel 100 miles on a single charge at speeds up to 200mph in almost total silence, save for a rushing wind sound, like the rustling of leaves. Similar to Tesla’s EVs then, these eVTOLs are a play on the green revolution, as they fly without needing fossil fuel. This means they could be very disruptive, replacing noisy, polluting helicopters while also creating an entirely new mode of transport. Another similarity is the company’s vertical integration. Like Tesla, which builds its own batteries and software, Joby designs and manufactures its own electric motors, propellers, and proprietary ElevateOS software. Also, Joby is eying markets beyond flying taxis, including selling aircraft to third parties like the US military and hospitals (organ transport). This would open up aftermarket maintenance revenue opportunities. Finally, Joby aims for autonomous flights one day (similar to Tesla’s robotaxis). It’s also developing hydrogen-electric technology, and has already completed a 523-mile test flight, with water as the only by-product. Having said all that, I see a couple of key differences. One is more initial competition, including from Archer Aviation in the US and China’s EHang. So it won’t have key markets to itself like Tesla largely did in the early years. Second, Tesla is primarily a product company whereas Joby is a service company. In other words, I can buy an EV but (alas) it’s highly unlikely I’ll ever own an eVTOL. This makes the business model far more unproven, multiplying the risks for investors. After flying more than 9,000 miles in 2025, Joby expects to begin a commercial air taxi service in Dubai in 2026. Then possibly the US afterwards, helping shepherd Delta Air Lines passengers to and from international airports. It’s currently into the FAA’s final stage of certification. The company ended Q3 with nearly $1bn in cash, but it will almost certainly need more in future to build out a fleet of hundreds of eVTOLs. Wall Street sees revenue reaching $570m by 2028, putting the stock at a lofty 22 times forward sales for that year. I first bought Joby shares in 2023 at $4.50 each. However, after they surged to almost $20 in August, I sold a large part of my stake. I’m holding onto my remaining shares, though, as Joby could indeed become another Tesla-like winner in future. Then again, it could crash and burn (hopefully not literally). Investors interested in this speculative stock around $13 should know it’s very much high risk.

I asked ChatGPT to pick 1 growth stock to put 100% of my money into, and it chose…
|
No matter how convinced I am of the investment case for a particular growth stock, I’d never put 100% of my cash in just one share. Diversification is an essential pillar of my investing strategy, since it protects my portfolio against the possibility of a devastating company-specific event. But what if I were limited to buying a single UK growth stock? With so many choices available for investors, it’s hard to choose one company above all others. I was curious to see if ChatGPT had a spectacular suggestion I might have missed. The AI chatbot started with boilerplate wording cautioning against going all-in on one growth stock, describing it as “extremely risky“. I agree. But it played along with my crazy idea, selecting Oxford Biomedica (LSE:OXB) as the stand-out share to consider. I must admit, I’d only come across this FTSE 250 gene and cell therapy business before in passing during the pandemic. Back in 2020, the firm signed a prominent manufacturing agreement with AstraZeneca to produce Covid-19 vaccines. Naturally, ChatGPT’s answer encouraged me to look deeper. The company, which now trades as OXB, started life as a spin-out from the University of Oxford in 1995. Today, it’s a pure contract development and manufacturing organisation (CDMO). This means OXB’s boffins handle complex lab work and large-scale production so its customers don’t have to. The firm serves major pharma companies, such as Novartis and Bristol Myers Squibb, by manufacturing viral vectors and gene therapy components. The biotech sector suffered in a post-pandemic world, and OXB was no exception. Its share price is still down nearly 40% over five years. But this year has been more promising with the shares rising from 420p in January to over 600p today. Recent results show a positive trajectory. In the first half of FY25, revenue surged 44% to £73.2m, and the group’s order book skyrocketed 166% to £149m. It’s still a loss-making company, which brings risks for investors considering the £728m valuation rests on the firm’s future potential. However, pre-tax losses have narrowed to £26m from £35.7m, so the direction of travel looks good. Expanding production capacity is a major priority for OXB. Those ambitions were given a huge boost from a successful £60m fundraising earlier this year. In October, the company used some of those funds to acquire a commercial-scale, FDA-approved viral vector manufacturing site in North Carolina, which is expected to be fully operational in early 2026. The investment opportunity in OXB shares needs to be weighed against a price-to-sales (P/S) ratio above 4 and a price-to-book (P/B) ratio above 22. While growth stocks in the biotech sector often have higher valuation multiples, I think these figures leave little room for error. Any clinical trial setbacks or the loss of a key customer could send the share price tumbling. ChatGPT’s growth stock champion was an interesting choice, but it wouldn’t be my number one pick. In any event, I already invest in AstraZeneca, so I won’t be buying OXB shares today. Diversification matters and I don’t want too much biotech exposure in my portfolio. But I’ll keep a close eye on this company to see if it can realise its potential. The post I asked ChatGPT to pick 1 growth stock to put 100% of my money into, and it chose… appeared first on The Motley Fool UK.

How little is £1,000 invested in Diageo shares at the start of 2025 worth now?
|
With just hours of 2025 left, I think it’s fair to conclude that holders of Diageo (LSE: DGE) shares have had a year they’ll want to forget. But just how much damage has been done to the investment case of this one-time FTSE 100 star? The simple answer to that question is ‘an awful lot’. But it’s worth being clear that Diageo’s woes aren’t of its own making. The ongoing cost-of-living crisis has seriously impacted sales and profits in key markets such as North America and China. Political developments, such as Trump’s tariffs, have arguably played a role too. Adding to this, younger generations are more into fitness than drinking (or neither). The advent of weight loss drugs — and the impact these have on the desire to drink — probably wasn’t on Diageo’s bingo card either. Naturally, those already invested in the stock will be in an unforgiving mood. A 37% crash in the share price in 2025 means Diageo stock now sits at its lowest ebb in almost 14 years. Put another way, a £1,000 investment at the beginning of the year would now be worth around £630. Sure, dividends have been paid. But these would barely have made a dent in the (paper) loss. When one considers that the FTSE 100 is up 20% as a whole, that’s got to sting. Since many of Diageo’s woes can’t be resolved quickly, it seems 2026 will be another difficult year. On the other hand, the drinks giant does have a potential ace up its sleeve in the form of a new CEO. That leader is none other than former Tesco boss Dave Lewis. A few years ago, he managed to put the supermarket back on the straight and narrow after an almighty accounting scandal. Sure, it’ll take a lot more than just one person to steady the ship. And yes, Diageo’s predicament is wholly different. But ‘Drastic Dave’ didn’t earn his nickname by accident. Expect cost-cutting aplenty. The sale of some of its less pivotal brands might also be on the cards. On its own, the appointment of Sir Dave is enough to pique my interest. The current price tag only adds to this. After its nightmare year, Diageo shares now change hands for just 13 times forecast earnings. A few years ago, investors would have needed to pay around 20 times earnings. This suggests there’s now a decent margin of safety. The dividend yield is rapidly approaching 5% too, even though that passive income can never be guaranteed. With little short-selling activity surrounding the stock and a lot of bad news seemingly priced in, I’d be surprised if 2026 is as bad as its 2025. My inkling — and it really is just that — is that the share price might trade sideways for a while. The market already knows the company is in a sticky spot so it’ll surely take something really nasty to tank Diageo shares from here. Half-year numbers in February will make for essential reading, even if it might be a ‘kitchen sink’ job in which every last bit of bad news is revealed to clean the decks. For now, it stays right at the top of my ‘potential buy’ list. The post How little is £1,000 invested in Diageo shares at the start of 2025 worth now? appeared first on The Motley Fool UK.

After a terrible 2025, can the Aston Martin share price bounce back?
|
The company is famous for its fast cars. Aston Martin Lagonda (LSE: AML) has been heading speedily this year – in the wrong direction. The Aston Martin share price is down by over two-fifths since the start of 2025. Bad as that sounds, long-term Aston Martin shareholders have become used to bad news. Over five years, the share price has tumbled by 92%. So, could this be a possible recovery stock to consider for my portfolio as we head into 2026? At face value, Aston Martin seems like it has the potential to be a great business. The company owns a luxury marque that has been the talking point of petrolheads for decades. Its customer base is well-heeled and it can command a very premium price for its cars. Yet despite that promising foundation, as a listed company Aston Martin has been a money pit. There are a number of reasons for that, but they boil down to one fundamental problem. Despite selling cars for a pretty penny, the company has continued to push more cash out the door than it brings in. There was good news this year when it came to that problem of negative free cash flow. While the company did not actually turn cash flow positive, it did at least say it expected free cash flow generation in the second half of the year. I was sceptical given the company’s long history of disappointing shareholders, but thought the Aston Martin share price could soar if the company did indeed turn free cash flow positive. Instead, what happened, was that the company later said it no longer expected to meet that target. There are some reasons that can help explain that. They include uncertainty about international tariffs and weak customer demand in China. But I like a company that delivers results, not excuses. There always seems to be some reason why Aston Martin is not delivering jam today while dangling the prospect of jam tomorrow. But its long-term share price collapse tells its own story. Still, all is not lost. Aston Martin remains a strong brand with its well-heeled customer base. It expects next year’s cash flow to “materially improve†compared to this year. After its horrible long-term performance, I think there are a couple of key factors that could potentially move the Aston Martin share price upwards if they occur. One is getting to positive cash flow. That would still leave the company with a large pile of debt that needs to be serviced, but it would at least mean the balance sheet was no longer getting worse. A more modest driver could be as simple as management setting realistic goals for 2026 and delivering on all of them. That could boost credibility and help lift the share price, even if the company is still bleeding cash. But with so many moving parts and a business model that has not been proven when it comes to generating cash, Aston Martin remains far too risky for my taste. I will not be investing.

How much do you need in an ISA to target £3,000 per month in passive income?
|
When people first learn about the idea of passive income, they sometimes start thinking about setting up some sort of business that hopefully can more or less run itself. But there is more than one approach to trying to earn passive income. One is to use an ISA to buy shares in blue-chip companies that pay dividends to their shareholders. While such an approach may not involve working, it can involve risk. Dividends are never guaranteed to last – and share prices can fall. However, it can also be a lucrative approach. It offers the benefit of flexibility too, as it can be tailored to an individual’s available means. How much such an approach might generate depends on several factors. One is the amount invested. Another is the dividend yield, which is basically the annual dividend income expressed as a percentage of the initial investment. So, for example, at a yield of 10%, targetting £3k per month (£36k per year) of passive income would require an investment of £360k. A 10% yield is rare. But a yield of half of that (5%) is not uncommon. It is higher than the current FTSE 100 yield of 3% but I think it Is achievable in today’s market even sticking to high-quality businesses. That would require £720k of money in the Stocks and Shares ISA to generate the targeted amount of passive income. That money could be a lump sum, or someone could make regular contributions and reinvest dividends to help speed the process of building up money in the ISA. That is known as compounding. That is a lot of money to invest. Some people may have more modest targets, or means. One of the things I like about using an ISA as a way to generate passive income streams is that I can cut the coat according to my cloth. That can mean putting in a small amount of money each month, for a more modest passive income goal. Over time, even fairly small sums can add up. One of the shares I think an ISA investor trying to build a second income should consider is insurer Aviva (LSE: AV). At the moment, the FTSE 100 firm offers a dividend yield of 5.4%. It has been growing the dividend per share handily over the past few years, following a sharp cut in 2020. Insurance is a time-tested industry with resilient demand and ongoing profit potential. Aviva can hopefully benefit from that, as the country’s leading insurer. It has a large client base, well-known brand, and economies of scale thanks to its leading market position. All shares carry risks and, indeed, Aviva’s dividend-cutting history is a practical reminder that no dividend is ever guaranteed to last. One risk I see as the company continues to integrate the Direct Line business it bought this year is that that could distract management attention from the core business. Still, as a long-term investor, I see Aviva as a solid business with promising prospects.

Want to aim for a million with a spare £500 per month? Here’s how!
|
Ever dreamed of being a millionaire? Lots of people would like to aim for a million – but putting that dream into practice is not necessarily an easy thing to do. Even from a standing start, I think someone could try to aim for a million by drip feeding money into carefully chosen blue-chip shares on a regular basis. Here’s how. Some people have a fantasy about putting a little money into the stock market, finding a brilliant small company set to explode, then watching their investment soar in value. That can happen – and occasionally it does. But a lot of small companies, even seemingly promising ones, end up going nowhere. Rather than focusing on speed, I think an investor can focus on taking a realistic approach to investing by using a long-term approach based on finding brilliant businesses that have attractive share prices. That way it may take many years to aim for a million – but hopefully it can be a realistic goal to aim for. To put that into perspective, let me use a practical example. Say someone invests £500 per month and compounds it at 10% per year. How long would it take them to aim for a million? After 30 years, that approach ought to have increased their portfolio to over £1m. So yes, this is a long-term approach to investing. But I see it as a practical one. Still, is a 10% compound annual growth rate over the long term realistic? After all, dividends are never guaranteed and share prices can go down as well as up. I do think a 10% compound annual growth rate is realistic, but it helps to focus on high-quality companies selling at the right share price. For example, one share I think investors should consider is Ashtead Group (LSE: AHT). At first glance, this might not seem too exciting: the company operates in the unglamorous world of plant hire and its share price has grown just 5% over the past year. That pales compared to the 21% growth during that period of the FTSE 100 index, of which the company is a member. But I think Ashtead has quite a few things going for it. Demand for plant hire is high, due to large infrastructure projects and housebuilding. There are only a few sizeable groups in Ashtead’s key US market – and it is one of them. The company has a proven business model, a clear strategy, and a sizeable client base. Building can be a cyclical market. So any downturn in US construction could be a threat to revenues and profits for the company. But over the long term, I expect the business to perform well. If someone aims for a million, of course, they need a practical way to do so. A useful first step can be selecting a suitable share-dealing account, Stocks and Shares ISA, or trading app for their needs. After that, they can start to identify the sort of high-quality shares at attractive prices I mentioned above, as they aim for a million.

Want to start buying shares next week with £200 or £300? Here’s how!
|
Pursuing a dream of getting into the stock market need not take a lot of money. In fact, it is possible to start buying shares for just a few hundred pounds. With a new year almost upon us, a lot of would-be investors may be tossing up the question of whether they have enough to start buying shares. Here is how someone could do that with just a few hundred pounds. Does it make sense to start investing with a fairly modest sum? I see some advantages. One is that it allows someone to get into the market sooner. It also means that any beginner’s mistakes will hopefully be less costly than if bigger sums were at stake. However, when investing a few hundred not a few thousand pounds, minimum fees and commissions can soon add up. For that reason, it pays to make a proper comparison of available share-dealing accounts, Stocks and Shares ISAs, and trading apps. Having set up a way to buy shares, it is also important for a would-be investor to get to grips with some basics of how the stock market works. That include concepts like how to value shares and properly diversifying a portfolio. Diversification can be challenging when investing a few hundred pounds, but the money can be split over a couple of different shares at least. Another tool for diversification on a low budget is buying shares in an investment trust that in turn holds its own diversified portfolio. Knowing why you want to invest is also important. Different investors start buying shares with different goals. For some passive income in the form of dividends is the draw, while others are more focused on businesses’ growth prospects. With the right preparation, it should not take long before someone is ready to start buying shares. One share I think investors ought to consider as we head into 2026 is baker Greggs (LSE: GRG). Greggs has not had a good 2025. The share price has fallen around two-fifths since the start of the year. There are several reasons for that. Higher tax and employment costs have been eating into the company’s profits. I see that as a risk for next year too. Stocking a less than optimal range of products early in a warm summer led Greggs to issue a profit warning. It also reduced management credibility. Hopefully that planning problem will not rear its head again in 2026, though it could. Selling for only 12 times earnings, the Greggs share price looks cheap to me if the company can steer clear of such mistakes next year. It has thousands of shops, a simple but proven business formula, and a large, loyal customer base. I see ongoing growth opportunities for the business and reckon it could potentially be a long-term bargain. The post Want to start buying shares next week with £200 or £300?

2 ideas for a SIPP or ISA in 2026
|
With markets up significantly, 2025 has likely been a great year for most SIPP and Stocks and Shares ISA investors. But what about next year? Here are two shares that I think deserve closer attention. After a massive multiyear rally, the BAE Systems (LSE:BA.) share price peaked above 2,000p in early October. Yet it has since retreated to around 1,700p, as I type (30 December), representing a 17.5% fall. This downward pressure appears linked to renewed hopes for a Ukraine peace settlement, with President Trump stating that he thinks President Putin is now serious about peace. Time will tell. Any actual ceasefire would be welcome, but could see the stock fall further. This sets up a somewhat strange dynamic for shareholders like myself. I obviously want peace in Ukraine, but also don’t like to see a falling investment value. How to square this? Well, peace doesn’t suddenly equal much lower defence spending. Even if there’s a negotiated settlement, Europe has fundamentally changed its attitude to defence spending, while military budgets are rising elsewhere too. By November, BAE had secured orders of more than £27bn for the year, including £4bn for 20 Typhoon aircraft for Türkiye. And that doesn’t include the UK’s deal with Norway to supply at least five Type 26 anti-submarine frigates. This is “expected to lead to a substantial order“. Next year, revenue is tipped to rise 7% to £32.8bn, with earnings per share increasing around 12% to 84p. This puts the FTSE 100 stock on a forward-looking earnings multiple of 20.4. That’s not particularly expensive for a diversified defence giant with a massive order book (£75.4bn in June). Looking ahead to 2026, I don’t expect defences shares to deliver similar returns (BAE still rose more than 40% in 2025, even after the pullback). But for long-term investors, I reckon BAE is worth considering at current levels. In contrast, 2025 has been painful for shareholders of Novo Nordisk (NYSE:NVO). The pharma stock has fallen 39%, as I write. This reflects fears that the Wegovy maker has fallen badly behind rival Eli Lilly in the GLP-1 weight-loss drugs space. Since the summer of 2025, Novo shares have crashed more than 60%! The company has also faced pressure from online pharmacies selling cheaper compounded versions of its injectable Wegovy treatment. This has seen it deliver profit warnings in the past 12 months, as well as replace its CEO. However, Novo recently became the first firm to have a GLP-1 oral pill approved by the FDA. This came after a late-stage study showed it safely helped patients lose an average of 16.6% of their body weight. Obviously, a daily Wegovy pill should expand the market opportunity to millions of overweight people who are scared of needles. And the firm announced the starting dose will be available for just $149 per month in January 2026 via direct-to-consumer telehealth channels. This could help it undercut compounded injectable versions of Wegovy, as well as reaccelerate sales next year. It also improves its competitive standing with Eli Lilly, which isn’t expected to get FDA approval for a GLP-1 pill till March, at the earliest. Competition is still a risk here. But with the stock trading at less than 15 times next year’s forecast earnings, I think it’s an opportunity worth thinking about.

Roberts avoids clashes with Trump in end-of-year judiciary report
|
Chief Justice John Roberts used his previous two annual reports to condemn politicians for intimidating judges and warn about artificial intelligence. This year, Roberts steered clear of current affairs.  His 2025 Year End Report on the Judiciary, released Wednesday evening, makes no mention of the tensions that have grown in the judiciary over the Supreme Court’s emergency decisions implicating President Trump’s second-term agenda. Instead, Roberts opted to fill his report with reflections on the Declaration of Independence. As the declaration’s 250th anniversary approaches next year, Roberts detailed how the…
