Microsoft has also committed to minimizing its water use and to replenishing the water that it uses.The announcement comes a day after U.S. President Donald Trump <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/trump-wants-big-tech-to-pick-up-the-tab-as-rapid-ai-datacenter-buildout-drives-up-power-bills/cmUQpzLR44b">said</a> in a social media post that his administration is working with technology giants, including Microsoft, to lower high power costs of running data centers.Apart from this, the company also said it would create more jobs, add to the tax base for local infrastructure development, and strengthen local communities by investing in AI training and nonprofits.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Microsoft’s Commitment</h2>Amid rising electricity consumption for AI usage, Microsoft’s power usage plan outlined four actions—paying utility rates that fully reflect datacenter costs so households aren’t burdened; working early and transparently with utilities to expand generation, transmission, and substations; improving datacenter efficiency through innovation and AI; and advocating for policies that speed up permitting, modernize the grid, and create fair rates for large power users.“Especially when tech companies are so profitable, we believe that it’s both unfair and politically unrealistic for our industry to ask the public to shoulder added electricity costs for AI,” <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://blogs.microsoft.com/on-the-issues/2026/01/13/community-first-ai-infrastructure/">said</a> Microsoft Vice Chair and President Brad Smith in a statement. “Instead, we believe the long-term success of AI infrastructure requires that tech companies pay their own way for the electricity costs they create,” he added.The tech giant also said that its goal is to reduce water use for its data centers and invest in infrastructure that would help replenish more water than it uses. The company said it would work towards a 40% improvement in datacenter water-use intensity by 2030 using optimization strategies like deploying closed-loop cooling systems.

The firm kept a “Neutral” rating and $206 price target on the shares.The firm, in a note to investors, said that no matter who the new CEO is, Lululemon will need at least a year of time and effort to return its U.S. business to sustainable sales growth.&nbsp;Lululemon’s U.S. sales have struggled amid rising competition and weak consumer demand due to macroeconomic uncertainties stemming from higher inflation and tariffs. In its recently announced third-quarter results, its net revenue in the U.S. region fell 2% to $1.7 billion.In September, Lululemon warned that U.S. tariffs on Vietnam and China, and the removal of the de minimis rule, would hurt its 2025 gross profit by $240 million, with impacts possibly reaching $320 million in 2026.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">Boardroom Uncertainty</h2>Lululemon founder Chip Wilson has launched a proxy fight by nominating three independent directors in an effort to remake the company’s board as the athletic-apparel retailer searches for a new chief executive.He said that shareholders have no confidence that the existing board can select and support the next CEO without onboarding members with stronger product experience.He further submitted a non-binding proposal calling for the board to immediately declassify, so that all directors are elected annually by shareholders.Earlier this month, Lululemon said its CEO, Calvin McDonald, will leave the company. The firm named its finance chief, Meghan Frank, and chief commercial officer, André Maestrini, as co-interim CEOs.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Did Stocktwits’ Users React?</h2>Retail sentiment around LULU trended in ‘bearish’ territory amid ‘extremely low’ message volume.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:628/60;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/LULU_PNG_e228cd885a.webp" alt="Retail sentiment around LULU trended in ‘bearish’ territory amid ‘extremely low’ message volume." width="628" height="60"></figure>Shares of Lululemon have fallen 43% so far in 2025.&nbsp;For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com. &nbsp;

The company’s autonomous general purpose agent can independently execute complex tasks like market research, coding, and data analysis, Meta added.Meta said that it will continue to operate and sell the Manus service while also integrating it into its products and scaling the service to more businesses.Manus’ team will also join Meta’s but the company will continue to operate from Singapore. It will also continue to sell and operate its product subscription service through its app and website.“Joining Meta allows us to build on a stronger, more sustainable foundation without changing how Manus works or how decisions are made,” said Manus CEO Xiao Hong. The company said earlier this month that its annual run rate for revenue is over $125 million including usage-based and other revenue, merely eight months after launching its first general AI agent. Prior to the launch, it raised $75 million led by Benchmark.META traded 0.3% lower after hours on Monday at the time of writing.<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Did Stocktwits Users React?</h2>On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around META stayed within the ‘bearish’ territory over the past 24 hours, while message volume fell from ‘normal’ to ‘low’ levels.<figure class="image"><img

Shareholders have no faith that this board can select and support the next CEO without input from a board with stronger product experience,” Wilson stated.“The Board must be refreshed so that a creative, brand-first experience is empowered,” he added.<h2 class="st-heading-2">CEO Departure Sparking Reset</h2>Earlier this month, Lululemon said its CEO, Calvin McDonald, will leave the company. The firm named its finance chief, Meghan Frank, and chief commercial officer, André Maestrini, as co-interim CEOs.The reset at retailers is becoming a sector norm as U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs have been hurting sales and eating into profits at several top retailers and wholesalers. Firms have also been seeing consumer demand slow as price pressures continue to weigh on consumers' pockets. Firms from Nestle and Walmart to Coty and Coca-Cola have all changed their CEOs this year.Shares in Lululemon have fallen nearly 44% so far in 2025.Get updates to this developing story <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/lululemon-founder-launches-proxy-fight-to-change-baord/cL75M5PREx2">directly on Stocktwits.</a> &nbsp;

While the reported $20 billion cost is high, it is small relative to Nvidia's cash position and cash flow generation. The firm kept a “Buy” rating on the shares with a $275 price target.Meanwhile, Citi analyst Atif Malik viewed Nvidia's licensing deal with Groq as a "clear positive.” Citi believes Nvidia has navigated regulatory scrutiny, given that Groq will remain an independent company. It kept a “Buy” rating with a $270 price target.Stifel said that Nvidia's deal with Groq could extend AI infrastructure leadership and also kept a “Buy” rating on Nvidia with a $250 price target. UBS also remained bullish on Nvidia shares heading into 2026. It said that it expects appreciation from here to be driven almost by higher earnings estimates.<h2 class="st-heading-2">$20 Billion Groq Deal</h2>Last week, Groq said that it had entered into a non-exclusive licensing agreement with Nvidia for its inference technology. While the company did not disclose a price, CNBC reported the deal could be valued at $20 billion.As per the deal, Nvidia will onboard Groq’s senior management team, including founder Jonathan Ross and President Sunny Madra, to help advance and scale the licensed technology.The deal comes at a time when Nvidia is facing stiff competition in the AI inference space from firms like Advanced Micro Devices and Broadcom, among others. Groq specializes in fast AI inference, which will give Nvidia more breathing room on the leaderboard, as it already dominates the market for training AI models.<h2 class="st-heading-2">What Are Stocktwits Users Saying?</h2>On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around NVDA stock trended in the ‘bearish’ territory amid “normal” message volume.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:637/64;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/nvidia_PNG_0fec69aa4e.webp" alt="On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around NVDA stock trended in the ‘bearish’ territory amid “normal” message volume.

Why Analysts See Nvidia’s Groq Licensing Deal As A Clear Win For AI Leadership

Despite the reported $20 billion price tag, brokerages believe the deal is small relative to Nvidia's scale and long-term earnings power.
