The city is a supreme travel destination: cultural capital of the world, birthplace of the Anglo-Saxon concept of liberty, easy to navigate, walkable, safe, and blessed with superb hotels and restaurants. There’s no need to learn another language. It’s my top choice for an urban trip and I visit at least once a year, almost always in the off-season. Here are my ways and means for the world’s greatest city.

📽️ Film Review: “Father Mother Sister Brother”—Three families deal with life and death: Not exactly what we’ve come to recognize as “holiday fare,” the film nonetheless captures the sometimes stilted and awkward air surrounding annual gatherings of families at this time of year. The winner of the top prize at the most recent Venice Film Festival, the internationally financed “Father” takes place in three different countries in the present day and examines the dynamics of socio-diverse families.

How to Run 2.6% better. Same as Super Shoes.

Hi, 

Matt here…yes, David and his wife Megan are doing incredible things in ultrarunning—pushing the limits of what’s possible—but that’s not why I trust them.

I trust David because he has an uncommon ability to take complex exercise science and turn it into guidance that actually helps athletes train, fuel, and perform better.  Which just happens to be my mission at The Feed. 

When new research comes out that could change how we think about fueling or performance, David is one of the first people we reach out too. He reads everything, pressure-tests it in the real world, and then explains what actually matters—without the noise or marketing spin.

That’s why I’m excited to bring David’s perspective directly to you. It’s practical, evidence-based, and built for athletes who want to do this the right way.

Here is David’s Article for you:

Every year or two, a handful of researchers in a distant lab click “publish” and everything changes. That happened last month when a team from Liverpool conducted the most rigorous high-carb study protocol we have ever seen.

The biggest finding was that there was a dose response relationship between carbs and running economy, with 120 grams of carbs per hour resulting in 2.6% less oxygen cost than 60 grams per hour. 

2.6% running economy improvements! That means that even in events that are just 2 hours long, and even coming off a carb load with major glycogen reserves, the difference between somewhat high carb (60 g/hr) and very high carb (120 g/hr) is almost as much as wearing supershoes for the first time.

In other words, this study is the biggest thing to come from Liverpool. Ever. Suck it, The Beatles!

The study had 8 male marathoners (a companion study on female athletes is coming out soon, and the researchers indicate that there are similar findings) with an average PR of 2:22 have 24 hours of high carb fueling and a big pre-training meal go through 3 fueling conditions:

• 60 grams of carbs per hour on pure glucose
• 90 grams of carbs per hour on 2:1 glucose:fructose
• 120 grams of carbs per hour on 1:1 glucose:fructose.

And the exercise protocol was SPICY. We’re talking 15 minutes steady, 90 minutes moderate, into 15 minutes steady. Basically, they’re testing 90 minutes of a fast marathon pace, with plenty of quick running on top of that.

Now imagine we’re comparing very high carb to the levels athletes usually take in on hard training days (some studies put that number as low as 20-40 g/hr, or even fasted).

You can see how high carb is causing the performance revolution–every single day with fueling involves much better economy than otherwise expected. Stack 2.6% on 2.6% on 2.6% and you get the magic that has changed everything as we know it: compound growth.

There were some interesting wrinkles: The study didn’t actually measure max performance, so we’re left to extrapolate the economy changes to outcomes.

• Oxygen cost was 1.12% lower at 90 g/hr than 60 g/hr, though that difference was not significant.
• Even at 120 g/hr, the 2nd hour involved 65% CHO dependency, meaning that fat was still being used at very high levels to sustain performance.
• The 120 gram group just was able to avoid fat taking up the majority of the energetic equation, which could cause economy reductions at hard efforts.
• All groups reported high levels of GI symptoms, with the 120 gram group reporting the most.
• The researchers say this finding shows that you need GI training to make it work. Implied is that the researchers also needed a good janitorial service to clean off the wall behind the treadmill.

And here’s something that’s very relevant for your next purchase: The researchers used a carb drink dosed at 125 mL every 15 minutes. When the carb levels are very high, drink mixes play a huge role in balancing the equation.

Let’s be real: 120 g/hr is best for very hard efforts like races.

For example, I try to be at 150 g/hr for my ultra races, but I rarely go above 90 g/hr in typical training (outside of race-specific efforts and GI training days).

On most of those days, I head out the door with a waist belt and a dream. I simplify the process with a high-carb mix in the bottle, plus another baggie in the belt to refill at a water fountain.

My go-to high carb drinks:

• The Feed Lab High-Carb Drink Mix. It’s the least expensive price-per-carb option on the market, just $20 for 33 servings. I’d personally shut down the government if The Feed ever stopped producing it. 
   
• Tailwind High-Carb. The lemonade mix tastes like Grandma was an exercise physiology researcher.

Everyone reading this needs a high-carb drink mix in their pantry to help balance the carb equation. When it comes to high carb, I’ll tell you what the researchers told the wall behind the treadmill: get with it, or get out of the way.

The Exact Date that America’s A.I. Revolution Faces Extinction

On or before December 12th, an act of war could thrust America into a new conflict…

And send one little known stock soaring.

On the surface this company has nothing to do with national defense.

Chances are you haven’t heard of it before.

But the Trump Administration — via the Pentagon — and private industry have poured hundreds of millions of dollars into this single company.

That’s why it’s critical you hear the full story today.

If December 12 brings the action we suspect, these two companies could be at the center of the story.

A $10,000 investment in dividend growth stocks with a starting yield of 4%, dividend growth of 8% per year, and price appreciation that rises in line with the historical average of the S&P 500 is worth $17,757 after five years.

After 10 years, it’s worth $31,572.

After 15 years, you’re sitting on $56,208.

At year 20, your $10,000 has turned into $100,195.

Hold for another 10 years, and you’ve got $319,613.View larger image

And if you stayed invested for 40 years, you’d have $1,024,893.

That’s the power of compounding and time.

Thanks to Two MAJOR Events Happening in Early 2026, Seven Tiny Stocks Could Make Huge Moves in the Days Ahead. Watch The AI Supremacy Summit for Details.

Legendary investor and trader Jesse Livermore once remarked, “It was never my thinking that made the big money for me. It was always my sitting.”

In fact, a Fidelity study commissioned years ago looked at its accounts to see if it could identify common traits among its most successful investors. What it found was remarkable.

The best-performing accounts belonged to investors who either were dead or had forgotten they had accounts.

Among the thousands of accounts that Fidelity looked at, the ones that just sat there – that weren’t touched – had the best results.

The biggest favor you can do for yourself as an investor is to put money into stocks and then do nothing (or very little) for as long as possible.

And if you want to leave a legacy for your children or grandchildren, do the same for them.

Can you imagine how you’ll be remembered if your grandchild has an account that you set up 40 years prior, and that money – which may not have been much when you funded it – can now help them buy a house, fund their child’s education, or even set up the next generation the way you did?

They say that in life, timing is everything.

But in the market, what’s more important is time. Regardless of how tough the markets might be, give yourself and your family the gift of time for your investments to grow.

Good investing,

The Weekly Wrapup

A better-than-expected read for fourth-quarter gross domestic product (GDP) is adding fuel to hopes for a Santa Claus rally. But with thin trading volume, investors won’t really know if that rally will take shape until next week.

Either way, investors continue to climb the wall of worry that includes tariffs, inflation, jobs, and the potential bubble in artificial intelligence (AI) stocks. Much of this is due to the relative strength of the consumer, which will continue to be something to watch in 2026.

Next week will be another shortened trading week. Markets will be closed on Jan. 1. This is a time for many investors to step away, but the MarketBeat analysts will continue to stay on top of the stocks and stories moving the market. Here are some of our most popular stories from this week.

Articles by Thomas Hughes

Earnings season is the time when many companies announce share buyback activity. This week, Thomas Hughes highlighted five companies that have some of the most aggressive share buyback programs and why those buybacks may drive stock price growth in 2026.

How do you know when a dividend stock is a keeper? This week, Hughes highlighted three companies that are raising their dividends within an environment where analyst sentiment continues to be bullish, suggesting capital growth to go along with that dividend growth.

Darden Restaurants Inc. (NYSE: DRI)had a strong earnings report, but DRI stock has pulled back since the report. Hughes explained why investors should view this as a strong buying signalbased on strong technical signals as well as bullish sentiment from analysts and institutions.

Articles by Sam Quirke

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) has been a volatile stock in 2025, but Sam Quirke explained why the stock continues to have a bullish upside. In his latest article, Quirke explained why a recent failed pullback is likely to be the catalyst for the TSLA share price to move above $500. 

Quirke was also examining the recent price action in Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN). The reminder to investors is that, in periods of consolidation, watch what analysts are signaling, which in this case suggests bullish upside for AMZN stock.

Articles by Chris Markoch

The S&P 500 has continued to make new highs. However, investors may want to watch the Russell 2000, which has been outpacing the market and could signal a surge in small-cap stocks. This week, Chris Markoch made a case for five small-cap stocks that could benefit as investors rotate out of big tech.

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR) has rallied from a recent sell-off. Markoch gave investors three reasons Palantir will continue to be an essential stock in the AI infrastructure trade.

It’s been a brutal year for beer stocks. However, a recent report from Goldman Sachs suggests that 2026 may be a time for beer to make a comeback. If that’s true, Markoch analyzed two brewers that could give investors a buzz in 2026.

Articles by Ryan Hasson

Ryan Hasson also looked at small-cap stocks this week by pointing investors to MarketBeat’s list of the highest-rated small-cap stocks. Hasson highlighted the top five names on the list and explained the case for future growth.

Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) has been one of the best-performing technology stocks of 2025. So, is the recent pullback a healthy pause or the first sign of a correction? Hasson argued for the buy-the-dip story based on technical signals and institutional conviction.

Articles by Leo Miller

Markets are expected to remain volatile in 2026. That’s why buying stocks of dividend growers could be a smart strategy. This week, Leo Miller highlighted three companies that have aggressively raised their dividendsand why each offers investors a reason to believe in capital growth that drives a higher total return.

On Dec. 22, three companies began trading as part of the S&P 500 Index. This stamp of approval generally gives stocks a short-term pop, but Miller explained why each company may give investors reasons for a solid growth story in 2026.

Space stocks have been strong performers in 2025, but three of these names have had strong insider sellingin the last 30 days. Miller reminded investors that not all insider selling is equal, and that only one company may be sending a concerning signal.

This week, Nathan Reiff provided investors with several reasons to believe that D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) could be setting up investors for a strong 2026.

Precious metals have been one of the strongest trades in 2025, and that strength is spreading to mining stocks. This may be a case where bigger is better, and Reiff highlighted three large miners with attractive setups for 2026.

The oil sector has been on the opposite side of the commodities trade. However, Reiff noted that the weakness in oil may create an opportunity for contrarian, risk-tolerant investors. Read his article to understand why three energy stocks may be worth holding until oil reverses.

(NASDAQ: MU) was the latest company to deliver results that showed high-bandwidth memory (HBM) demand extending well into the future.
