Baking is one of my favorite ways to unwind, but it would be a lot less relaxing if I didn't have my KitchenAid stand mixer. It's one of the few kitchen tools that comes in handy for almost every recipe, and I know I can count on it to mix my ingredients evenly, whether I'm making cookie dough or cake batter. While I've had mine for over a decade, it wasn't exactly affordable. Luckily, our kitchen expert's favorite model, the KitchenAid Artisan Series Stand Mixer, is on sale now on Amazon.
KitchenAid has been a tried-and-true brand in kitchen supplies for years, and we can see why. Our kitchen editors have tested over 10 stand mixers, including five KitchenAid picks. Not only did the KitchenAid Artisan Series come out on top as the best KitchenAid mixer, but it's also our favorite stand mixer from any brand.
The mixer has plenty of convenient features to help you tackle any recipe. It comes with a dough hook, paddle, and beater attachments that allow you to achieve different textures. Depending on how you use the machine, you can also buy more KitchenAid attachments, like a pasta maker or slicer. The mixing attachments easily reach the bottom of the five-quart bowl, which can easily hold multiple batches of cookie or bread dough, to thoroughly mix your ingredients. The tilt-head design also makes it easy to add more ingredients as you go. Plus, it's available in nearly 40 colors on Amazon.

With nearly 17,000 five-star ratings, Amazon shoppers also love the machine. "This is the most heavily used tool in my kitchen besides my tea kettle; I've had mine for over six years now, and it's still going strong today," said one reviewer. "It's incredibly versatile and heavy-duty."
Shoppers love the consistent results they get from this mixer. "We've been using our KitchenAid mixer primarily for sourdough bread and English muffins, and it's a game changer! The mixer handles the heavy dough with ease, saving us time and effort," said another reviewer. "The results are consistently great — perfectly mixed and kneaded every time. It's so reliable and easy to use; we honestly wish we'd bought it sooner! Highly recommend for anyone who bakes regularly."
With the current discount on Amazon, you can get the mixer for nearly 25% off the usual price. Add it to your cart now and save over $100 while the deal lasts. Though this isn't the best discount it's seen, it's still better than recent pricing, and a solid price cut. Stand mixer deals are unpredictable, so if you need one now, this deal can't be missed.

Anthropic's $150 Billion Goal: How Amazon and Alphabet Could Benefit From the AI Surge
Artificial intelligence start-up Anthropic is in early talks to raise between $3 billion and $5 billion in a new funding round. The raise could push the company's valuation above $150 billion, according to the Financial Times. That would more than double its current $61.5 billion valuation, reached just a few months ago. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Anthropic Is Growing Fast Anthropic is the company behind Claude, a large language model that competes with OpenAI's ChatGPT. It is backed by Amazon (AMZN) and Alphabet Inc. (GOOG), which have each committed billions in cloud credits and cash. Amazon has already invested up to $8 billion and is reportedly considering further investments to remain among Anthropic's largest shareholders. This funding round comes as competition in artificial intelligence intensifies. OpenAI is preparing to launch GPT-5 and is working with SoftBank (SFTBY) on a separate raise that could bring in tens of billions of dollars. Meanwhile, Anthropic has quietly increased its annualized recurring revenue from $1 billion at the start of the year to over $4 billion, driven mainly by enterprise subscriptions. Investors are closely watching the private AI space, but the real implications may lie with public companies that stand to benefit. Amazon and Alphabet have positioned themselves as infrastructure providers for leading model developers, such as Anthropic. A stronger Claude model, used widely in enterprise software and coding tools, could support growth in Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud revenue. The Middle East Is Calling The funding talks have also drawn interest from Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds. Anthropic's leadership has expressed concerns internally about taking direct investment from the region, citing political risks. Even so, the company sold $500 million worth of shares to a fund linked to Abu Dhabi in 2023. A broader shift toward sovereign capital could influence how other private AI start-ups raise money. Anthropic remains private for now, but its valuation jump and enterprise growth highlight how quickly the AI market is scaling. Investors seeking exposure are most likely to find it through public companies that enable and support that growth. Using TipRanks' Comparison Tool, we've brought Amazon and Google side by side and compared them to gain a broader look at Anthropic's two most notable backers.

A Data Deluge Brings a ‘Moment of Truth' for Markets This Week
(Bloomberg) -- Wall Street pros are staring down a pivotal week that will likely set the tone for the rest of the year in markets and the economy. The High Costs of Trump's 'Big Beautiful' New Car Loan Deduction Can This Bridge Ease the Troubled US-Canadian Relationship? Trump Administration Sues NYC Over Sanctuary City Policy First and foremost is the conclusion of the Federal Reserve's meeting on Wednesday, and although it isn't expected to cut interest rates, traders and investors will be poring over commentary for clues about the path ahead. Then there's a string of Big Tech earnings with Inc., Apple Inc., Meta Platforms Inc. and Microsoft Corp. all reporting. And sprinkled throughout are some of the leading indicators on the state of the economy, from gross domestic product to nonfarm payrolls. In other words, if there ever was a five-day stretch that would define the second half of the year, this is it. 'This week's packed calendar — trade negotiations, the FOMC, the jobs report and four of the Magnificent Seven names reporting — makes it truly a moment of truth for markets,' said Julian Emanuel, chief equity and quantitative strategist at Evercore ISI. He was referring to the Federal Open Market Committee, the panel within the Fed that sets interest rates. The fire hose of releases will test investors' faith in the resilience of the US economy and the stock market's seemingly unstoppable rise. And with President Donald Trump's self-imposed tariff deadline of Aug. 1 — which he's said won't be extended — markets are hoping for some sense of stability on trade negotiations after months of whiplash. 'I think there is more of a chance of markets getting clarity on the continued resilience of the economy, while we get less clarity on the trade front,' said Kevin Gordon, senior investment strategist for Charles Schwab & Co. ''Reciprocal tariff' deadlines are staggered for some of our largest partners, and there are still lingering questions around already-announced deal frameworks, so I don't think of Aug. 1 as some magical date on which we'll stop being gripped by tariff anxiety.' S&P 500 companies are generally beating forecasts and profits are up 4.5% from this time a year ago, according to Bloomberg Intelligence data. Firms like Southwest Airlines Co., which said tariffs shaved $1 billion from its annual pre-tax profit this year, expect to see improvements in the second half. 'We already see signs that demand is coming back in volumes,' Chief Executive Officer Bob Jordan said in an interview. Much of the earnings strength is being driven by wealthier customers. American Airlines Group Inc. highlighted strength in their premium cabin demand, while Deckers Outdoor Corp. cited pricey shoes like Ugg sheepskin boots and Hoka sneakers. United Airlines Holdings Inc. and Delta Air Lines Inc., said corporate travel was leading their rebounds. On the flip side, Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. cut its guidance because the 'lower-income consumer is under pressure,' Chief Executive Officer Scott Boatwright said, which has led to a drop in spending. There are other signs of stress, with companies like Conagra Brands Inc. and Abbott Laboratories discussing higher costs due to tariffs. In particular, consumer discretionary stocks are expected to see profit declines into the start of 2026 as trade policies start to bite, Bloomberg Intelligence strategists Gina Martin Adams and Michael Casper warn. 'We already have some corporate commentary as to what effect tariffs are having and will at an individual level,' said Dan Greenhaus, chief economist and market strategist at Solus Alternative Asset Management. 'But the truth is, we probably need several more months before having a firmer handle on the cost distribution.' Economic Uncertainty Economic data has also been uneven as the tariff impact is just starting to hit. The government's initial estimate of second-quarter GDP is expected to show a notable rebound in growth after a monumental surge in imports caused a contraction at the start of the year. 'It won't be until after the market and economy have had an opportunity to digest the new tariff rates that become effective on Friday that we will know where we stand,' said Michael O'Rourke, chief market strategist at JonesTrading LLC. Other reports due this week may point to some softening in the economy. Economists expect consumer spending barely grew in June after adjusting for inflation, and other estimates point to a continued slowdown in hiring and uptick in unemployment. They're also projecting an acceleration in the Fed's preferred measure of inflation — the personal consumption expenditures price index — as tariffs start to hit. 'It's not the cliff that most people are always looking for when it comes to an economic downturn, but it is a visible slowdown if you take the time to actually lift the hood and look at the underlying details,' said Gregory Daco, chief economist at EY-Parthenon. Despite all the uncertainty, the stock market is trading at record highs as fears of worst-case tariff scenarios have failed to materialize. The question is how long that can last. 'I think there are a few different factors here. First, there are signals that the labor market is holding up well, wages are growing faster than inflation — both of which supports the consumer in aggregate,' said Cayla Seder, macro multi-asset strategist at State Street. 'When it comes to the stock market, earnings have been beating a low bar, which has indicated the companies are holding up better than feared.' --With assistance from Shelly Banjo and Matt Turner.
