Nike earnings: profit beat masks sales decline
CoinWorld news: In its fiscal first-quarter earnings report, Nike's profit exceeded Wall Street expectations, reaching 48 cents per share, beating the 43-cent consensus, but revenue of $11.21 billion fell short of the $11.32 billion expectation, while net income still declined 2%. Nike said revenue fell 4%, mainly affected by Greater China and the Europe, Middle East, and Africa regions, with Greater China revenue dropping 22%. Analyst Zachary Warring expects the Jordan brand to stabilize in the coming quarters, but it is still facing operational issues at present. Nike plans to achieve about $2.5 billion in cost savings by fiscal year 2031, with layoffs set to begin in 2027.
Bonds now offer the best real yields in decades—are stocks still worth investing in?
CoinWorld data: Bonds now offer the best real yields in decades, with the real yield on 30-year inflation-protected Treasuries at about 3.35%, a level not seen in decades. Jeremy Siegel, a finance professor at Wharton and chief economist at asset management firm WisdomTree, said that although stocks still outperform bonds, that advantage is narrowing. With Treasury yields reaching levels not seen since 2002, Siegel noted in a CNBC interview that inflation-protected securities (TIPS) offer a fixed yield above inflation, and the 30-year version has not provided such a high yield in the past 20 to 30 years. According to his calculations, with the market valued at 20 times earnings, the yield is about 5% above inflation. This means the reward for taking on equity risk is about 1.65 percentage points, a gap Siegel said is narrowing. Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury yield hit 5.33% on Thursday. Siegel also mentioned that the profit margins of the Magnificent Seven tech giants are as high as 50% to 70%, while those of non-tech companies are only 7% to 10%. Therefore, higher borrowing costs have a greater impact on these thinner margins. Siegel said this led to a stall in the rotation into a broad range of stocks in the first quarter.

Perplexity open-sources a 27B decision model, with its official benchmark composite score slightly surpassing Jev.
According to CoinWorld news, Perplexity has launched the open-source 27B decision model pplx-decider-v1-27b and released a decision API. The model does not generate ordinary text; instead, it directly returns a probability distribution over developer-provided answers, and can be used for classification, request routing, and selecting an agent's next action. The API costs $0.04 per 1 million input tokens, and output is free. According to Perplexity's published evaluation of 11 tasks with a total of 7,210 samples, pplx-decider-v1-27b achieved an overall accuracy of 85.71%, higher than Jev's 84.51% and qwen3.8-27b's 74.76%. However, Jev scored higher on 6 of the 11 tests, while Perplexity led on financialphrasebank, ragtruth, tabfact, and circa. The model is specifically designed to handle high-frequency "small judgments" within agents, such as assigning customer service tickets, tool invocation, and process selection. AWS, Cloudflare, and others have also recently launched similar models.
