UBS on Tuesday reported first-quarter profit that trounced forecasts and said it was sticking with plans for share buybacks over three years despite Swiss government proposals that would hike its capital requirements. Shares in Switzerland's biggest bank jumped 8% and were on track for their biggest one-day gain since March 2023, when authorities orchestrated UBS's rescue takeover of Credit Suisse. The bank's shares have soared nearly 50% since the merger, with investors upbeat about UBS prospects given the low acquisition costs, its huge increase in assets and - so far - its relatively smooth progress in integrating its stricken rival.

Warren Buffett on Apple, AI, and why he ditched Paramount
During Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK-A, BRK-B) annual meeting, Chairman and CEO Warren Buffett discussed the top market players and current trends the investment firm is closely monitoring. Yahoo Finance's Seana Smith breaks down three key takeaways from the meeting.

China home sales slump 47% over May Day holiday vs 2023
China's average daily home sales during the major May Day public holiday sank 47% from a year earlier, and were down around 30% from pre-pandemic levels in 2019 for the same holiday period, according to a private survey on Monday. Home sales fell in 19 of 22 surveyed cities during the five-day May Day compared to the same period of 2023, and were down more than 60% in mega cities of Guangzhou and Shanghai, according to data from the China Index Academy, one of the country's largest independent real estate researchers. "The new housing market is still under adjustment pressures," said the research firm, adding "there is more room for lowering the downpayment ratio, reducing mortgage interest rates and transaction taxes and fees."
