Featured Article

Circle Reported This Morning. A Lot Happened.

Three things landed in the stablecoin space this week and only one of them got the coverage it deserved.

The one that moved markets first: on May 2, Senators Thom Tillis and Angela Alsobrooks released bipartisan compromise text on the yield question that had been deadlocking the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act for months. The standoff was between the crypto industry and the banking lobby, and it came down to one issue. Can stablecoin platforms pay yield on idle balances without being treated like a bank? The compromise said no to passive yield, yes to activity-based rewards tied to genuine platform usage. That was enough. Markets moved on Monday, May 4. Circle (CRCL) was up 18%. Coinbase (COIN) up 6.41%. Robinhood (HOOD) up 4.22%. The S&P 500 fell 0.51% that same session. Not a crypto rally. A stablecoin-specific move on a specific resolution of a specific policy question.

The second thing: Circle reported Q1 2026 earnings this morning.

Revenue and reserve income came in at $694 million, up 20% year over year. Missed Wall Street’s consensus of roughly $715 million. GAAP EPS of $0.21 beat by $0.03. Net income from continuing operations fell 15% to $55 million, largely because stock-based compensation quadrupled to $51.8 million post-IPO. Adjusted EBITDA grew 24% to $151 million. The headline is a revenue miss. But the volume picture underneath it is something else entirely. USDC in circulation hit $77 billion at quarter end, up 28% year over year. USDC on-chain transaction volume reached $21.5 trillion in Q1, up 263%. USDC represented 63% of all stablecoin transaction volumes during the quarter according to Visa Onchain Analytics. That is not what losing share looks like.

The third thing, which most coverage skipped: the Senate Banking Committee confirmed a markup session for May 14. That’s this Thursday.

What’s interesting is how rarely all three of those land in the same week. A legislative breakthrough, a major earnings report, and a committee vote scheduled three days out. The compactness of it is unusual.

On the regulatory picture, let me be direct about what’s real and what’s still uncertain. The GENIUS Act was signed into law July 18, 2025. First federal framework for payment stablecoins. Requires 100% reserve backing with liquid assets, mandates monthly public disclosure of reserve composition. Done and settled. The CLARITY Act is the outstanding piece, the broader market structure bill that would allocate jurisdiction between the SEC and CFTC and establish how stablecoin issuers can operate commercially at scale. It’s not law. It still needs to clear committee Thursday, survive a full Senate floor vote requiring 60 votes, and then be reconciled with House legislation. Galaxy Research puts the odds of it becoming law in 2026 at roughly 50-50. Polymarket moved from 46% to 64% after the compromise text dropped. I’d take the over on 50-50 right now, but I wouldn’t bet the house on it. The legislative calendar gets tight as the year goes on.

Slight tangent, but it actually matters for how you think about Circle’s valuation: the stablecoin market has crossed $300 billion in total capitalization. That number gets cited and then glossed over. It shouldn’t. This is payments infrastructure now, not a speculative corner of crypto. It’s getting the attention of commercial banks, global regulators, and large institutional allocators simultaneously. The GENIUS Act gave it a rulebook. CLARITY, if it passes, gives it a full operating structure. Those are not incremental changes. They shift who can own these assets and how they get priced over a multiyear period.

Back to Circle. The expense side of the Q1 income statement is the real story. Revenue-sharing arrangements with Coinbase, rising technology costs, and post-IPO compensation pushed operating expenses up 76% year over year to $242 million in Q1 alone. Circle reaffirmed roughly 40% compound annual USDC growth guidance and projected FY 2026 adjusted operating expenses of $570 to $585 million. The growth case is there. But the math requires everything to go right while expenses are scaling hard and net income is compressing. Forward P/E around 108x against an industry average closer to 10x. Price-to-sales around 7.7x. Analyst consensus is a moderate buy, average price target in the $125 to $127 range. I’m not saying CRCL is uninvestable at these levels. I’m saying the margin for error is nearly zero and the operating expense trajectory needs to bend soon.

One more thing on Circle before moving on: the CPN network hit $8.3 billion in annualized transaction volume as of March 31. In April they launched Managed Payments, a product that lets financial institutions run stablecoin payment infrastructure without directly managing digital assets. Early-stage. Not moving the income statement yet. But it signals a company building toward multiple revenue surfaces, which is exactly what you want to see when the core reserve income model is this sensitive to interest rate movements.

Here’s where I’m at on Coinbase.

Q1 2026 revenue came in at $1.4 billion, down 21% quarter over quarter. Crypto market cap and trading volumes both fell more than 20% during the period. Net loss of $394 million on a GAAP basis. And yet this company generated $303 million in adjusted EBITDA, its 13th consecutive positive quarter on that metric through every kind of market. Ended Q1 with over $10 billion in cash. Repurchased $1.1 billion of its own shares during the quarter. Announced roughly $500 million in annualized cost reductions. Forward P/E around 64x, which is still not cheap, but it’s a fundamentally different risk profile than CRCL at 108x. Coinbase also earns interest income on USDC reserves held on its platform and cleared the regulatory overhang around that business in April. At first glance the Q1 numbers look rough. Look closer and this is a company running disciplined through a weak cycle, not a company in structural trouble.

PayPal (PYPL) is the name that keeps getting underweighted in this conversation and I’m not entirely sure why. PYUSD launched in 2023 and has expanded to 70 global markets. The merchant and consumer wallet infrastructure PayPal carries is something CRCL and COIN would take years to replicate. Forward P/E around 8.5x. That’s not a pure stablecoin play. It’s a distribution-layer bet. If stablecoins become actual consumer payment rails at any meaningful scale, PayPal’s existing reach matters more than anything Circle or Coinbase can build from scratch.

And then there’s the thing almost no one is pricing in right now. AI agents transacting with stablecoins. Circle’s Nanopayments product allows software agents to transact at costs as low as $0.000001 per payment across more than a dozen blockchain networks in under a second. In Q1 they announced Agent Wallets and an Agent Marketplace alongside Nanopayments, calling it the Agent Stack. If autonomous software agents begin handling micro-scale financial transactions at volume, stablecoin-native settlement becomes the default infrastructure. Circle’s position there is real even though the revenue is essentially zero today. That reframes what you’re buying when you buy CRCL at any price.

Not a Thursday catalyst. But it matters for how long you’re willing to hold.

The rate sensitivity risk on Circle deserves a line before closing. Reserve income compresses in a rate-cut cycle even as USDC volume grows. That’s a structural tension built into the business model. If the Fed cuts meaningfully in the back half of 2026, Circle’s revenue outlook changes materially regardless of how well the CLARITY Act goes. Keep that in your model.

Thursday is the first real test of whether the legislative momentum holds. A smooth May 14markup moves the Senate floor vote closer. A stall resets the clock on everything. The stocks already moved on the compromise text. They haven’t fully moved on actual passage. That gap is either the trade or the trap, depending on what happens next.

Oil traders got a rude Monday wake-up call

THE DAILY BULLETIN

MONDAY · MAY 11, 2026

Oil traders got a rude Mondaywake-up call.

Brent crude jumped as much as 3.5%to $104.80 a barrel and WTI pushed near $99 after President Trump torched Iran’s latest peace offer on social media, calling it “totally unacceptable” and dragging the fragile ceasefire back into question.

The Strait of Hormuz — the world’s most important oil chokepoint — has been effectively shut since the war kicked off in late February. The IEA is calling it the biggest supply shock in history, and Wall Street is no longer betting on a quick fix. A Goldman Sachs survey out last week showed most respondents expect Hormuz flows to stay impaired past June.

Oil markets don’t normalize until 2027 if Hormuz stays choked.

— AMIN NASSER, CEO, SAUDI ARAMCO

The numbers behind the move tell the story: more than 4,000 Brent July contracts traded in the first five minutes of the session, versus a recent average under 1,000.

Tehran reportedly offered to ship some enriched uranium to a third country but balked at dismantling its nuclear sites. Iran denied the report. Meanwhile a drone briefly set a cargo ship ablaze off Qatar over the weekend, and Netanyahu told 60 Minutes the war is“not over.”

So, Wall Street will have to buckle up for a long ride.

NEWS FEATUREAI & IPOS

What bubble? Cerebras hikes IPO range as orders pile up 20x.

Anyone calling the top on AI hasn’t seen the Cerebras order book.

CBRSNVDAAMZNIPO · MAY 13

20x oversubscribed — and they keep raising the price

The Sunnyvale chipmaker is set to bump its IPO price range to$150–$160 a share — up from $115–$125 — and lift the share count to 30 million from 28 million, per Reuters sources. At the top end, that’s roughly $4.8 billion in proceeds, up from $3.5 billion.

Bloomberg had reported the new range would land at $125–$135. Cerebras blew past that too. The driver: orders for more than 20 times the available shares.

The deal would be the biggest IPO globally this year, per Dealogic. Cerebras builds chips optimized for AI inference — the part where models answer your questions, not the trainingNvidia has owned for years. That distinction matters more by the day as AI labs shift spending from building models to running them at scale.Amazon and OpenAI are now customers.

Pricing lands May 13, with shares trading on Nasdaq under“CBRS.” Morgan Stanley, Citi, Barclays, and UBS are leading.

THE TAKEAWAY

The AI trade, apparently, still has gas. Watch Wednesday’s pricing.

2 ETFs to Play Both Sides of the Iran War Ceasefire

Author: Nathan Reiff. Date Posted: 5/4/2026.

Key Points

A multi-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran may have helped to calm the markets, but threats to oil and other industries remain.
Investors might seek ETFs to make bets on multiple outcomes as negotiations continue.
An oil-focused fund like USO would likely benefit if prices continue to ascend amid renewed attacks; JETS is an air travel ETF that may thrive if the war cools.
Special Report: The Biggest IPO Ever: Claim Your Stake Today

As the U.S. war in Iran enters its third month, the market has seemingly stabilized after initial concerns about shocks to the energy industry and oil prices. However, ongoing political developments—including the ceasefire that began in early April—mean uncertainty remains a major factor. Investors may still see further volatility if the ceasefire ends and conflict resumes.

One way to play this unpredictability is through exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which allow portfolios to benefit from industry-specific surges. Below are two funds worth considering, depending on whether you have an optimistic or pessimistic view of future developments in the Middle East.

A Modestly Priced, Liquid Approach to Crude Oil

June 1st: The $1.75 Trillion “Ripple Effect” (Ad)

The projected SpaceX and xAI S-1 filing hits the SEC on June 1st – and analyst Dylan Jovine says $1.75 trillion in stored capital will be looking for a home when it does.

But the real opportunity isn’t the IPO itself. Jovine has identified a small-cap supplier trading near $4 that sits directly in the path of xAI’s Colossus infrastructure buildout – and a specific trigger in the S-1 could reprice it overnight.Get the ticker and full briefing before the June roadshow begins

The United States Oil Fund LP (NYSEARCA: USO) is one of the most popular exchange-traded products offering exposure to oil. As a commodity pool, USO holds oil futures in an attempt to track the daily price changes of light, sweet crude oil. Notably, this type of oil is predominant in the United States, meaning that USO may be uniquely tied to the domestic oil market.

For its specialized focus, USO charges an expense ratio of 0.60%. This is actually cheaper than many alternatives in the space, and as an added bonus, USO also offers excellent liquidity. Its one-month average trading volume hovers above 27 million, despite not being the largest fund by assets under management, which total about $1.9 billion.

As these figures suggest, USO is popular as a short-term trade among more active investors. This is partly because of the potential to capture gains from near-term movements in crude oil, but also because the fund’s futures contract approach means it is subject to contango. Investors looking for a long-term buy-and-hold fund to wait out developments in the Iran war may be better off elsewhere. Nonetheless, if the price of oil continues to rise—a result investors may find increasingly likely if a ceasefire does not hold and attacks resume—USO may be a good way to take advantage of that movement.

An Airline-Focused Fund Ready to Take Off If Fuel Supplies and Prices Normalize

Investors expecting the war to cool might look to one of the industries most negatively impacted by the conflict in the first place: airlines. Companies in this space have had to contend not only with supply and price pressures for jet fuel, but also with the potential for changes in routes and operations due to regional instability.

The U.S. Global Jets ETF (NYSEARCA: JETS) targets an index of air travel industry firms, including not only airlines themselves but also companies responsible for manufacturing and servicing planes, among other things.

Though it’s a global fund, it is primarily focused on domestic names and holds many of the largest airline firms in the world. Delta Air Lines Inc. (NYSE: DAL), American Airlines Group Inc. (NASDAQ: AAL), and United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: UAL)collectively make up about a third of the fund’s portfolio.

The exclusive focus on air travel is unique to JETS, distinguishing it from a number of broader transportation funds, and this may make the fund particularly appealing to investors betting that diplomacy between the United States and Iran will improve. So far, JETS’ year-to-date performance reflects the opposite: the fund is down about 8% in 2026.

With an expense ratio exactly the same as USO’s, JETS provides a smaller asset base of about $725 million and lower trading volume, though that is not uncommon for an ETF with a niche strategy like this. Investors may also want to keep in mind that JETS does offer a dividend, though with a yield of 0.5%this is more of a passive income boost than a core dividend play.

To be sure, there are many other ETFs that would stand to benefit if the ceasefire continues or the war stops altogether. The more oil-dependent an industry is, the more investors might expect it to surge if that development takes place. Even broader developed- or emerging-markets funds may climb if the Strait of Hormuz is reopened and global shipping normalizes, allowing not only energy markets but global trade overall to stabilize once again.

Hims & Hers Earnings Preview: The Novo Nordisk Shift Puts GLP-1 Strategy in Focus

Authored by Jessica Mitacek. Article Posted: 5/8/2026.

Key Points

Following a settled legal dispute with Novo Nordisk, HIMS has transitioned from selling compounded weight-loss drugs to offering brand-name Wegovy and Ozempic.
While the deal was finalized in March, investors are eager to see if this pivot will boost the top line or if the financial impact likely won’t be seen until Q2.
Despite its recent rally, the stock remains highly volatile with short interest exceeding 35%.
Special Report: The Biggest IPO Ever: Claim Your Stake Today

Healthcare stocks have struggled in 2026. With a year-to-date (YTD) decline of about 6%, the sector has been the worst performer among all 11 S&P 500 sectors this year.

That weakness has shown up in the YTD losses of some of Big Pharma’s biggest names, but it has also weighed on mid-cap stocks like telehealth platform Hims & Hers Health (NYSE: HIMS), which is down more than 23% in 2026.

June 1st: The $1.75 Trillion “Ripple Effect” (Ad)

The projected SpaceX and xAI S-1 filing hits the SEC on June 1st – and analyst Dylan Jovine says $1.75 trillion in stored capital will be looking for a home when it does.

One day after a major announcement from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) sent HIMS shares up nearly 4%, the stock gave back those gains on Thursday, falling nearly 5% as traders locked in profits.

That wasn’t enough to derail the stock’s recent rally, however, which has seen HIMS gain nearly 32% over the past month and about 77% since its 52-week low on Feb. 27. As the company prepares to report Q1 2026 earnings on May 11, here’s what investors should watch.

Is the Novo Nordisk Partnership Already Paying Off?

Following a well-publicized legal dispute earlier this year with Denmark-based Novo Nordisk (NYSE: NVO)—the eighth-largest publicly traded pharmaceutical company in the world with a market cap of more than $204 billion—it’s been smooth sailing for Hims & Hers.

Since Novo Nordisk dropped its patent infringement lawsuit on March 9, HIMS has been on a tear. Not only did the Danish firm abandon its case, but it also reached a deal that allows Hims & Hers to sell Novo Nordisk’s brand-name Wegovy and Ozempic through its direct-to-consumer and virtual medical services platform.

As part of that deal, Hims & Hers agreed to stop advertising its compounded GLP-1 products. Given the FDA’s announcement that it is proposing semaglutide, tirzepatide, and liraglutide be excluded from its 503B bulks list, that decision could prove prescient for the company.

Wall Street will be watching to see how that deal has affected Hims & Hers’ top line. Although the strategic shift was announced on March 9, Novo Nordisk’s GLP-1 products were not available for sale through the online platform until March 26. Since the first quarter closed on March 31, those gross sales may not appear on Hims & Hers’ income statement until Q2.

Will Hims & Hers Continue to Show Subscriber Growth?

The market will also be watching for confirmation that Hims & Hers’ total subscriber count remains above 2.5 million, if not continues to grow from there. That benchmark was reached near the end of 2025 and marked an increase of more than 16% from the 2.2 million subscribers the company had at the end of 2024.

That growth appears to be sustainable, as Hims & Hers ended 2023 with 1.5 million subscribers. More important than the raw subscriber count, though, is the fact that the telehealth company generates 90% of its recurring revenue from its customer base.

Approximately 82% of users remain on the platform for more than three months. If Hims & Hers can show that retention remains strong, it should help support full-year guidance.

Meanwhile, analysts are expecting earnings per share (EPS) of around three to four cents, which would represent an estimated 90% year-over-year decline. That may already be priced in given the stock’s YTD performance, but a miss could accelerate selling.

The same goes for quarterly revenue, which consensus forecasts place in the range of $616 million to $619 million. Wall Street is already bracing for a “reset quarter” after revenue growth slowed from nearly 111% in Q1 2025 to less than 29% in Q4, so any surprise to the upside could spark another leg higher in the current rally.

Analysts Are Taking a Wait-and-See Approach

Despite an average 12-month price target of nearly $32, which implies potential upside of around 24%, Wall Street remains cautious on the stock.

Of the 17 analysts currently covering HIMS, four rate it a Buy, 12 rate it a Hold, and just one rates it a Sell. Overall, the stock carries a consensus Hold rating.

Institutional ownership of nearly 64% falls within the typical range for mid-cap companies. Outflows of $1.62 billion have nearly caught up with inflows of $1.8 billion over the past 12 months, after selling accelerated in Q4 2025. But that trend reversed in Q1, with institutional selling 88% lower than institutional buying.

With a high beta of 2.43, the inherently volatile stock is currently attracting significant bearish interest. Concerningly, more than 35% of the float—or nearly 70 million shares of the almost 228 million shares outstanding—is currently shorted.

Still, strong earnings could shift sentiment and bring the stock closer to the consensus analyst price target. Shareholders and prospective investors should mark their calendars for Monday, May 11, when Hims & Hers Health reports Q1 2026 results.
