Nigeria spends N1 billion each month on energy for every airport, according to Aviation Minister Festus Keyamo. He made this statement during an interview on Channels Television’s *Political Paradigm* on Tuesday, October 8, 2024. 

This significant expenditure underscores the financial strain involved in operating airports throughout the country. Keyamo stressed the importance of finding more sustainable and efficient energy solutions to address the escalating costs that pose a major challenge for the aviation industry. 

"Our airports depend heavily on energy, and the current spending is not sustainable. We need to explore alternative energy sources to cut costs and enhance operational efficiency," he remarked.

Nvidia Overtakes Microsoft As World's Second-Largest Company By Market Cap
~1.2 mins read

Nvidia's (NVDA) market capitalization overtook Microsoft's (MSFT) on Monday, making it the second-largest company in the world behind Apple (AAPL).

Nvidia shares climbed just over 2% Monday, lifting the chipmaker's market cap to $3.13 trillion, ahead of Microsoft's $3.04 trillion. Super Micro Computer (SMCI), a partner of Nvidia, reported strong shipments of its GPUs driven by artificial intelligence (AI) demand, helping send shares of both companies higher.

Nvidia and Microsoft have been jockeying with Apple for the top spot by market cap in recent months. In June, Nvidia briefly took the crown when it surpassed Microsoft, but Microsoft later reclaimed the title, and Apple has since pulled ahead.

Nvidia's stock price has more than doubled in value since the start of the year, as demand for its AI chips surged. Analysts suggested Nvidia shares could still climb higher, given the strength of AI spending trends and seasonal tailwinds.

Semiconductor companies typically perform better in the fourth quarter than they do in the third quarter, with Nvidia “still set to lead," Melius Research analysts said Monday, adding "the setup here is still pretty darn good."

Melius holds a price target of $165 for Nvidia, a 29% premium on Monday's closing price of $127.72. That compares to an average price target of $152.52, according to Visible Alpha.

Air Products Stock Jumps As Activist Investor Pushes Strategy Shift
~1.1 mins read

Air Products and Chemicals (APD) shares soared on Monday following reports that activist investor Mantle Ridge has acquired a stake worth more than $1 billion in the industrial gas provider and plans to push for improvements at the company.

According to , people close to the situation said Mantle Ridge has been accumulating a position in the company since March. The firm reportedly plans to push for numerous changes at Air Products, including succession planning and capital allocation to increase shareholder wealth.

Mantle Ridge will reportedly pressure the Air Products board of directors to plan for an eventual executive leadership transition. In July, the departure of Samir Serhan from the chief operating officer (COO) role created some uncertainty surrounding the company's executive suite. At age 80, Seifi Ghasemi, Air Products CEO since 2014, is among the oldest CEOs of any company in the S&P 500.

Mantle Ridge is also expected to offer ideas on how Air Products can better manage its money. Some analysts think the company has been too focused on areas like clean fuel at the expense of its main business of industrial gases.

Air Products shares finished Monday more than 9% higher. The stock, which has been volatile in 2024, has risen around 14% year-to-date.
