Retail Traders Just Sent This AI Health Stock Soaring 60%
Oscar Health (NYSE:OSCR) has exploded nearly 60% this week, adding close to $2 billion in market cap without a single press release or earnings update. The real catalyst? A retail trading frenzy. OSCR became one of the most-mentioned names on r/WallStreetBets, and trading volume followed suitnearly 50 million shares changed hands on Wednesday alone, the second-highest in the company's history. Options activity lit up as well, with call volumes hitting a record 152,414 that day, and another 95,000 contracts moving by Friday morning, nearly triple the norm. Beneath the surge is a company with serious revenue momentumup 48% in 2023 and 57% in 2024. Adjusted earnings per share reached $0.92 in Q1 2025. But Oscar isn't just selling insuranceit's selling a story. Management brands the company as a health-tech platform, powered by AI and run on what it calls a continuous hackathon model. That pitch, familiar to anyone who's followed high-multiple tech names, is likely helping Oscar catch a more generous valuation than traditional insurers. Retail traders appear to be buying into that promise. Another factor? The Kushner connection. Joshua Kushner, vice chairman of Oscar's board and brother to Jared Kushner, has remained a prominent name in business and politics alike. That visibility might be adding an extra layer of speculation to the mix. But for now, the stock's movement is being driven more by momentum than fundamentals. Oscar is just $3 shy of its all-time highand the retail crowd seems determined to carry it the rest of the way. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

Ivanka Trump's teen daughter Arabella raids her mom's closet to wear dress worth eye-watering price
Ivanka Trump 's teen daughter Arabella has been caught raiding her mom's closet for an event at the White House. The first daughter recently posted a snap of her family smiling alongside Donald Trump, 79, in the Oval Office after the president swore in Charles Kushner as the US Ambassador to France and Monaco. While everyone was dressed in their best, Arabella, 13, stood out thanks to her familiar look. The teen adorned a long white Emilia Wickstead neck dress with cap sleeves and black buttons down the front. Ivanka actually wore the exact same piece - which costs an eye-watering $2,110 - back in 2018. She donned the white dress during an event at the White House that celebrated the six-month anniversary of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The duo looked almost identical in side-by-side pictures in the gown - and it came days after social media users mistook Ivanka and her daughter as sisters thanks to their similar looks. In early June, Ivanka and her family enjoyed an evening with Trump at a UFC match. Arabella, 13, adorned a long white mock neck dress with cap sleeves and black buttons - and Ivanka actually wore the exact same piece back in 2018 (seen) Ivanka donned the white dress during an event at the White House that celebrated the six-month anniversary of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act Ivanka flaunted her incredibly thin frame for the outing, donning a long, tight white dress and white strappy sandals. The gown was strapless but had sleeves down her arms, which drew attention to her skinny shoulders. Ivanka's daughter Arabella and her son Joseph Frederick, 11, also attended the event alongside their dad Jared Kushner, 44. Before the match, Ivanka posted some adorable family snaps to her Instagram. The family smiled ear-to-ear as they stood together in front of a white wall. Jared and Joseph wore button-down shirts and pants, while Arabella sported a long black gown with a matching scarf. Many people were stunned by Ivanka's beauty and youthful appearance, with some admitting they thought the mom and daughter were actually sisters. 'Always keeping it so classy. By the way, you and your daughter look more like sisters than mother-daughter,' someone said about the duo. 'Ivanka, you look extra gorgeous in these photos!' another commented. In the carousel of photos, the mom-of-three included a sweet mirror selfie that Arabella took of the pair. Another picture captured the moment Ivanka and her daughter looked sweetly at one another. 'What a beautiful family!' someone else gushed. 'Your daughter is pretty like you,' another user wrote.

Chris Christie says Trump is giving free rein to white-collar criminals
Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said Sunday that President Donald Trump's pardons are "eliminating" the idea that there is such a thing as white-collar crime. "He's saying it doesn't exist, anything goes," Christie said to host George Stephanopoulos on ABC's "This Week." Christie spoke in particular about the recent pardon of Paul Walczak, a former nursing home executive who had been convicted of stealing millions from his employees. "Paul Walczak is an entrepreneur targeted by the Biden administration over his family's conservative politics," White House spokesperson Harrison Fields said in a statement to Axios about the pardon. Christie said Sunday that Walczak's mother "was a million-dollar donor/fundraiser for Trump. And this guy stole, George, 10 million dollars in payroll taxes. The money that his employees give to him to pay their payroll taxes, he stole that money." The former New Jersey governor is certainly not a fan of Trump, having run against him in the Republican presidential primaries in 2016 and 2024. But before he was elected governor in 2009, Christie served as a U.S. attorney. Among those he prosecuted during that time was Charles Kushner, father of Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and now Trump's ambassador to France. Many but by no means all of Trump's recent pardons and commutations have been in cases of fraud. Speaking on ABC alongside "The Haves and Have-Yachts" author Evan Osnos, Christie divvied up Trump's pardons into subgroups. "You know, he's got categories of pardons," he said. "You know, you got the pay-to-play pardons. You've got the reality-TV-stars-turned-supporters. And then you've got the folks out there who are just victims of what he calls weaponization of the Justice Department. "But all of them," Christie added "have one thing in common, which is you've got to be whole hog for Donald Trump. Never before we have — have we seen a president who makes it a gate to getting to a pardon to be a political supporter of his, a vocal current political supporter." Trump's other recent pardons and commutations include Todd and Julie Chrisley, whose daughter spoke at the Republican National Convention in 2024; Jason Galanis and Devon Archer, who had testified in House GOP inquiries into the conduct of Hunter Biden; former Virginia sheriff Scott Jenkins; former Connecticut Gov. John Rowland; former Rep. Michael Grimm (R-N.Y.); and Larry Hoover, a Chicago drug kingpin who founded the Gangster Disciples.

Ivanka Trump raises eyebrows as she calls father-in-law Charles Kushner 'dad' in gushing post
Weeks after she jetted off on a lavish vacation with the Kushners, Ivanka Trump has now raised eyebrows by calling her father-in-law Charles Kushner 'dad.' The First Daughter, 43, took to her Instagram and X, formerly Twitter, accounts to congratulate Charles after it was revealed that he will now serve as the US Ambassador to France on Tuesday. 'Congratulations, dad. I am proud of you,' gushed Ivanka while reposting the announcement. Many people on the web were surprised that the blonde beauty referred to her husband Jared Kushner 's father as 'dad,' and some even claimed she was 'disrespecting' her own dad, President Donald Trump. Her post was quickly flooded with replies from disgruntled fans. 'Charles is your dad?' one X user asked in response to her post. 'Please refrain from disrespecting THE most revered man on Earth aside from God - your biological Father @POTUS,' someone else wrote. 'Who the f**k calls their father-in-law dad?' questioned another person. 'Absolutely insulting to our beloved @POTUS,' a fourth tweet read, while a fifth said, '"Dad." Yikes girl.' 'He is not your dad,' added a different user. Real estate developer Charles was pardoned by Donald in December 2020 after he plead guilty to tax evasion and making illegal campaign donations. He was sentenced to nearly two years in prison but only served 14 months. Late last year, Donald nominated Charles to serve as the US Ambassador to France, writing on social media at the time, 'He is a tremendous business leader, philanthropist, [and] dealmaker, who will be a strong advocate representing our country and its interests.' Ivanka has certainly been cozying up to the Kushners as of late. Last month, she, her husband, and their three kids went on a trip to Costa Rica with Jared's parents, Charles and Seryl Kushner, his brother, Joshua Kushner, and Joshua's wife, Karlie Kloss, amongst others. First Daughter Ivanka has notably taken a step back from politics for her father's second term. Her post was quickly flooded with replies from disgruntled fans From 2016 to 2020, and alongside Jared, Ivanka was among the most influential figures in Trump's White House, despite having no previous political experience. She served as a top advisor to her father, giving up her life as a socialite and fashion designer, and moving her young family from New York City to DC. But after Trump lost the 2020 election, 'Javanka' broke ranks and decamped to a $24 million mansion in Miami to lick their wounds. Those in the know say Ivanka is now solely focused on her role as a mother, rebuilding her socialite credentials... and earning back the friendship of celebrity pals who abandoned her during the first Trump administration. When Donald announced he was running again in 2022, Ivanka revealed that she would be stepping away from politics this time around to instead focus on her family. Since leaving politics behind, she has enjoyed an extremely jet-set and lavish lifestyle, and she is often spotted setting out on glamorous getaways. Back in January, she spoke to The Skinny Confidential about how she plans to help her dad during his presidency. 'I'm most looking forward to just being able to show up for him as a daughter and be there for him, to take his mind off things and like watch a movie with him or watch a sports game, to know that he can be with me and be himself, and just relax,' she said. 'It's the world's loneliest position, the enormity of the decisions you're making on a daily basis, how transactional everyone is with you,' she added. 'So it's a very lonely perch.'
