Mr. Bean attempts to decipher the bewildering world of stock market fluctuations, tariffs, and AI, with predictably chaotic results.

3M's Sticky Situation

Right so I saw this thing on the telly about money I think. Seems this company called 3M like when you say 'Mmm!' after eating a nice sandwich did rather well. Apparently they made more money than people thought. I wonder if it was from selling extra strong glue? You know the kind that sticks your trousers to your chair? I could have used that once! Almost as strong as Super Glue... nearly stuck my head to my knee. *Sniggers*

RTX Gets the Wind Knocked Out

Then there's RTX! Sounds like a brand of sock! They also made money but then someone said something about 'tariffs' which I think are like those sticky bits you get on your shoes after walking through the park. And everyone got upset! Honestly people get worked up over the silliest things. Like when Mrs. Wicket hides my sugar!

AI Cloud or Cloudy AI?

Next up this AI Cloud company. They are doing well because of something called 'artificial intelligence'. Is that like when I try to be clever and things go wrong? Remember the time I tried to 'smarten up' my flat with a new coat of paint? *Shudders* Anyway apparently this company is in a good position because of AI. So if my calculations are correct then I'm on track to win the lottery...or maybe I'll just get a nice cup of tea.

Northrop Grumman's Upside Down Cake

Oh dear this company Northrop Grumman isn't doing so well. They thought they'd make lots of money but now they think they won't make as much. It's like when I think I have a whole cake but it turns out half of it is missing! Did Teddy eat it? Teddy! Where's the cake?!?

Tariffs! Halliburton's Troubles!

Halliburton they are in trouble because of the... *whispers* Tariffs! Apparently these tariffs are making things expensive and even the Americans aren't very happy and they buy *everything*! I think they should just buy a Mini. Then they'd be happy like me!

Hertz So Good?

Hertz like the rental car place is going up and down and all over the place. One minute they are up one minute they are down just like my trousers when the elastic goes! Someone called Bill Ackman has bought lots of shares! Which is like buying lots of beans in a jar. I wonder if he likes beans? I love beans! Especially on toast!
