AIG shares fall on leadership change concerns

Antero Resources Corporation, a Denver-headquartered oil and natural gas exploration and production firm, saw its share price rise in early 2026 due to a broader rally in US energy stocks. This market movement was driven by heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, which tightened the global oil supply outlook and pushed prices higher. In its first-quarter 2026 investor letter, Diamond Hill Capital, managed by First Eagle Investment Management, identified Antero Resources as a leading contributor to its Select Strategy’s performance. The strategy, which focuses on large-cap, cash-generative businesses, outperformed the Russell 3000 Index during the period. Antero reported record production levels in Q1 2026, supporting its valuation amidst the sector-wide gains.

Cuba warns of 'bloodbath' if US attacks; Washington adds sanctions

Tensions between Cuba and the United States have escalated following reports that Havana has acquired over 300 military drones from Russia and Iran. In response, the US Treasury imposed new sanctions on Cuba’s main intelligence agency, nine Cuban nationals, and several senior Communist Party officials and generals. Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel warned that a US attack would result in a "bloodbath," asserting Cuba’s right to self-defence. The diplomatic friction occurs against a backdrop of severe economic strain in Cuba, driven by an oil blockade and halted Venezuelan shipments, which has led to significant energy crises and blackouts. Concurrently, the Trump administration is reportedly seeking to indict former President Raul Castro, while CIA Director John Ratcliffe recently visited Havana for negotiations.
