Miami — Bam Adebayo delivered one of the most stunning individual performances in NBA history on March 10, 2026, pouring in 83 points as the Miami Heat demolished the Washington Wizards 150-129 at Kaseya Center.

The 28-year-old center, long celebrated for elite defense and versatility rather than pure scoring, shattered his previous career high of 41 points in a night that rewrote Heat franchise records and placed him second on the league’s all-time single-game scoring list.

Adebayo finished 20-for-43 from the field, including 7-for-22 from beyond the arc, and made an NBA-record 36 of 43 free throws. The 36 made free throws surpassed the previous single-game mark, while his 43 attempts also set a new record. He added nine rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks in 42 minutes of dominant play.

The 83-point outburst ranks as the second-highest scoring game in NBA history, trailing only Wilt Chamberlain’s legendary 100-point performance on March 2, 1962. It eclipses Kobe Bryant’s 81-point explosion against the Toronto Raptors on Jan. 22, 2006, becoming just the third 80-plus point game ever recorded.

Adebayo paced the Heat with blistering efficiency across quarters: 31 points in the first, 43 by halftime and 62 after three periods. He set new Miami franchise highs for points in a quarter (31), half (43) and full game (83), topping LeBron James’ previous team record of 61. Adebayo became the first Heat player to attempt 40 field goals in a contest and joined rare company with 20 made field goals and 25-plus free throws in the same game.

The victory extended Miami’s winning streak to six games, improving their record to 37-29 and strengthening their hold on a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. While teammates contributed to the balanced attack, Adebayo carried the offense in a performance fueled by relentless drives, sharp outside shooting and repeated trips to the line amid Washington’s defensive breakdowns.

In the locker room afterward, Adebayo spoke with a mix of awe and gratitude. “Wilt, me, then Kobe — that list sounds unreal,” he told reporters. He credited family members in attendance — including his emotional mother captured on broadcast — and teammates for setting him up throughout the night. During a postgame FaceTime segment on NBA Showtime, he singled out one of his made 3-pointers as a personal highlight in the historic effort.

The performance stunned analysts and fans alike given Adebayo’s typical scoring profile. Entering the game, he averaged in the low 20s, with rebounding, rim protection and playmaking as his trademarks. The leap from 41 to 83 marked the largest single-game career-high improvement in league history, amplifying the shock value.

Social media erupted with highlight reels, NBA official clips of every bucket drawing millions of views within hours. Commentators debated the context — heavy free-throw volume tied to foul-drawing prowess and Wizards’ struggles — yet the achievement stood irrefutable. “Bam just became forever legendary,” one viral reaction summed up the sentiment.

The Wizards, mired in a difficult rebuild season, struggled to contain Adebayo as he exploited mismatches and drew fouls at will. Miami’s spacing and ball movement created open looks, allowing the big man to showcase an expanded offensive arsenal rarely seen at this volume.

Beyond the numbers, the night carried deeper meaning for Adebayo, a two-time Olympic gold medalist and Heat cornerstone since being drafted 14th overall in 2017. The outburst reinforced Miami’s culture of players stepping up in big moments under coach Erik Spoelstra and elevated Adebayo’s legacy as a complete two-way force.

League-wide reactions flooded in from former stars like Tracy McGrady and Vince Carter, who joined broadcast discussions praising the “unbelievable” feat. ESPN breakdowns dissected the statistical dominance, while YouTube recaps and fan edits continued to circulate widely.

As the Heat push toward the postseason, Adebayo’s 83-point masterpiece provides a massive confidence boost and a defining moment for the franchise. No immediate follow-up games shifted the focus away from March 10’s extraordinary display.

In a league filled with superstar scoring nights, Bam Adebayo proved he could reach historic heights on a night when everything fell into place. The performance joins the short list of true all-time great individual efforts, cementing his place in NBA lore.

While private banks have underperformed benchmarks Nifty and the Sensex over the past month, banking stocks overall offer great value for investors, market veteran Gurmeet Chadha said. He further said that banks’ transition from Loan-to-Deposit Ratio (LDR) to Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) augurs well for them and could potentially increase credit by 3%-7% in their books.

“Minus subsidiary values, even private Banks like HDFC, ICICI r trading at 2 times book & P/E multiples of 12-15 times. Due to FII selling, it may remain under near term pressure, banks offer great value, even some NBFCs. Also banks moving frm LDR to LCR offer scope to increase credit by 3-7% in their books,” Chadha said in a tweet.

Chadha said that he expects a 3% to 7% uptick in credit in banks’ books on the back of a switch to LCR.While both LDR and LCR are liquidity indicators in banking, they measure different aspects of a bank’s balance sheet strength. LDR shows how much of a bank’s deposits are being used to give loans while LCR measures whether a bank has enough high-quality liquid assets to survive a stress scenario.

The Nifty Private Bank has slipped over 10% in the past month versus Nifty’s near 8% slide in the same period.
Individually, HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank have fallen by 10% and 11%, respectively. IDFC First Bank remains the top loser at 21% share price erosion and is followed by 12% fall in Kotak Mahindra Bank.
Others including YES Bank, Axis Bank, The Federal Bank and RBL Bank are down between 6% and 8%.
In the 10-stock index, the lone gainer in Bandhan Bank has gained 5% in the same period.

Meanwhile, the Nifty PSU bank is down 4% over a one-month period, with Punjab & Sind Bank (PSB) emerging as the top loser, down 12%. Others like State Bank of India (SBI), Uco bank, Bank of India (BoI), Indian Overseas Bank (IoB), Punjab National Bank (PNB), Canara Bank, Central Bank of India and Bank of Baroda (BoB) have fallen in single digit up to 9%.

The state-run bank’s whose shares have seen an uptick include Indian Bank (3%), Bank of Maharashtra (2%) and Union Bank of India (1%).

The travel industry evolves at breakneck speed, with new technologies, regulations, and consumer preferences reshaping the landscape almost daily. Whether you’re a travel professional, hospitality manager, or tourism entrepreneur, staying informed isn’t just helpful—it’s essential for survival.

In 2026, the volume of information available can feel overwhelming, but with the right strategies, you can cut through the noise and focus on what truly matters for your career and business.

Subscribe to Industry-Specific Publications and Newsletters

The foundation of staying informed starts with curating reliable sources that deliver relevant information directly to you. Major publications like Skift, Travel Weekly, and Phocuswright offer daily newsletters that summarize the most important developments in the sector. These curated digests save you hours of searching while ensuring you don’t miss critical updates.

Beyond mainstream publications, consider subscribing to niche newsletters that align with your specific area of interest. If you work in sustainable tourism, publications like Green Hotelier provide targeted insights. For those in the airline sector, resources like The Points Guy and airline-specific trade journals offer deeper dives into aviation trends.

The key is finding a balance between breadth and depth. Start with two or three general industry sources, then add specialized publications as needed. Most professionals find that spending 15-20 minutes each morning reviewing newsletters keeps them adequately informed without overwhelming their schedule.

Leverage Social Media Strategically

Social media has transformed how travel industry news today reaches professionals, offering real-time updates and diverse perspectives. LinkedIn has become particularly valuable for B2B travel news, with industry leaders and companies sharing insights, analysis, and breaking developments. Follow key influencers, trade organizations, and major brands to create a customized feed.

Twitter remains excellent for immediate updates, especially during conferences or when breaking news occurs. Create lists of travel journalists, analysts, and company accounts to streamline your feed. Instagram and TikTok, while more consumer-focused, offer valuable insights into emerging travel trends and destination marketing strategies.

The trick is setting boundaries to prevent social media from consuming your day. Dedicate specific times to check your feeds, and use tools like TweetDeck or Hootsuite to organize and filter content efficiently.

Attend Virtual and In-Person Industry Events

Conferences, trade shows, and webinars remain unmatched for networking and gaining comprehensive industry insights. Events like ITB Berlin, World Travel Market, and the Skift Global Forum bring together thought leaders who share forward-looking perspectives you won’t find in daily news coverage.

In 2026, hybrid events offer flexibility for professionals who can’t travel frequently. Virtual attendance at major conferences provides access to keynote presentations and panel discussions without the expense of travel. However, in-person attendance still offers irreplaceable networking opportunities and spontaneous conversations that often yield the most valuable insights.

Don’t overlook smaller, regional events or specialized summits focused on topics like travel technology or sustainable tourism. These gatherings often provide more intimate settings for meaningful discussions and connections with peers facing similar challenges.

Join Professional Organizations and Online Communities

Membership in organizations like the American Society of Travel Advisors, the Global Business Travel Association, or regional tourism boards provides access to exclusive research, member forums, and professional development resources. These organizations often produce reports and studies that offer deeper analysis than typical news coverage.

Online communities on platforms like Slack, Discord, and specialized forums create spaces for real-time discussion and knowledge sharing. These groups allow you to ask questions, share experiences, and learn from peers worldwide. The collective intelligence of these communities often surfaces trends and solutions before they appear in mainstream publications.

Utilize Technology and Aggregation Tools

Smart professionals use technology to automate information gathering. RSS feed readers like Feedly allow you to consolidate multiple sources into one interface, while Google Alerts notifies you when specific keywords or topics appear online. Podcast apps can help you consume industry content during commutes or workouts.

AI-powered news aggregators are becoming increasingly sophisticated, learning your preferences and surfacing the most relevant content. Tools like Flipboard and Apple News can be customized to prioritize travel industry sources while filtering out irrelevant information.

Conclusion

Staying current with travel industry developments in 2026 requires intentionality and strategy. By combining traditional publications with social media, attending key events, participating in professional communities, and leveraging technology, you can maintain a comprehensive understanding of the industry without feeling overwhelmed. The investment of time you make in staying informed will pay dividends through better decision-making, stronger professional relationships, and the ability to anticipate and adapt to changes before your competitors. Start with one or two strategies from this guide, then gradually expand your approach as you discover what works best for your schedule and learning style.

Good day, and thank you for standing by. Welcome to the Bavarian Nordic 2025 Annual Report. [Operator Instructions] Please be advised today’s conference is being recorded. I’d now like to hand the conference over to your first speaker today, CEO, Paul Chaplin. Please go ahead.

Paul Chaplin
CEO & President

Thank you, and welcome, everyone, to today’s presentation, which is an update on our results for last year, 2025. Today, you’ll hear from me a few slides from myself, and then I will hand over to Henrik Juuel, the CFO. So if you turn to Slide 4, we reported very strong results last year, DKK 6.2 billion in revenue with a 28% EBITDA margin. And this is the result of very strong performance of both arms of our commercial business on Travel Health, but also on public preparedness. On Travel Health, we saw a 30% growth last year, which is a very strong performance across the whole portfolio, but also related to the launch of our Chikungunya vaccine. On public preparedness, in ’25, we were at the back end of an outbreak of mpox and we saw more than DKK 3.1 billion in revenues, which is approximately DKK 1 billion above the upper end of our normal base business.

So as I said, very strong performance from both parts of our commercial business in ’25. In addition, we sold the Priority Review Voucher valued at DKK 810 million. And if we included this in the EBITDA, this would bring the EBITDA to a 41% margin. Some events that have happened since — in
