Avsnitt

  • Stocks are sliding in a global sell-off led by tech, AI, and chips, with the Nasdaq hit hardest. Fresh off its June 12 IPO, SpaceX has already swung wildly—down about $400B in market cap at one point—with focus now on its upcoming index inclusion and the first window for retail investors to sell. AI geopolitics intensifies as US officials probe whether ASML EUV lithography tech reached China, plus Five Eyes issues dire warning about imminent AI cyber attacks, highlighting stratospherically high US–China and EU–China tensions. What could go wrong?

  • Pew Research has been mapping American political identity since 1987, and their 2026 typology finds nine distinct voter groups — not two. The loudest voices in US politics come from just 38% of the country, split between the far right and far left, while the majority sits somewhere messier and more complicated in the middle. 


    Host Neeta Bidwai reflects ahead of America’s 250th anniversary and walks through the 9 political typologies, based on a survey of more than 10,000 Americans, including issues like same-sex marriage, open carry, climate change, regulation, and church-state separation.

  • Anthropic is in a full-blown standoff with the White House after the government banned foreign nationals from using Fable 5, the lab's most advanced model, with less than two hours notice. The ban followed a tip from Amazon's CEO, which is raising a lot of eyebrows given how intertwined these companies actually are. On top of that, OpenAI's audited financials just leaked, showing a $38 billion loss in 2025, and the AI price war is making a path to profitability look even harder.

  • Oil traders celebrated a peace deal and pushed prices below $80 a barrel, but that's not the whole story. Shipping companies won't move until the peace holds, minesweepers still have to clear the strait, and oil executives just told the White House prices aren't coming down anytime soon. The pump is still painful, and the timeline to relief is longer than anyone wants to admit.

  • The US Iran memorandum is worth $300B+, and nothing in it is what it appears to be. The Strait of Hormuz is being "reopened" while Iran charges tolls, mines are still in the water, and there's no progress on nuclear talks. Israel isn't a party to any of this, energy prices are sky high, and the Pentagon needs 3+ years and US automakers' help to restock missiles after the US blew through $113B on the war. Does any of this actually hold?

  • SpaceX prices its IPO Friday at $135 per share. OpenAI just filed confidentially to go public, and its numbers are weaker than Anthropic's by almost every measure. Anthropic leads enterprise AI with 40% market share versus OpenAI's 27%. And the Nasdaq 100 bent its rules to let these companies in fast, whether index fund holders want them or not. Here is what the IPO races mean for your money.

  • Gas hit $4.56 this Memorial Day weekend and consumer sentiment just dropped to an all-time low. The Strait of Hormuz conflict is draining global oil reserves at a record pace, and the latest truce talks don’t seem stable at all. So energy businesses from utilities to autos are rethinking everything as the largest utility merge in the world, NextEra-Dominion, could reshape electricity prices on the entire Eastern Seaboard and Ford gets serious about building batteries even though it threw away it’s electric vehicle business.

  • A new landmark study traced $3.3 trillion in Chinese foreign investment across 161,000 companies in 159 countries and what it found about patent harvesting should concern every Western economy.


    The research, published by the US National Bureau of Economic Research, reveals how Chinese state-owned enterprises and private investors have systematically targeted pre-patent, R&D-intensive firms in North America and Europe since 2012. More than $800 billion of that investment flowed through the Cayman Islands alone, obscuring ownership and bypassing standard foreign direct investment reporting. The strategy traces directly to the Made in China 2015 initiative, which directed Chinese firms to acquire and repatriate foreign intellectual property and the data shows it is working.

  • OpenAI just won a major legal battle against Elon Musk, but are they about to lose the IPO race anyway in the hottest year ever for public offerings? The Musk v. OpenAI trial ended in just two hours with a verdict for the defense, but the reputational damage from testimony may matter more than the legal outcome. Sam Altman now faces a House Oversight inquiry over $2 billion in stakes he holds in companies tied to OpenAI, while OpenAI misses targets and the CFO says it's not ready for public markets. Meanwhile, Anthropic just beat OpenAI in crucial metrics for the first time as it cruises towards a successful IPO this year.

  • AI CapEx is projected to hit $725B this year, up 77% from $410B, as the Iran war pressures the global economy, with AI/tech and oil and gas outperforming while other sectors struggle. Saudi Aramco warns gas and jet fuel stockpiles could reach critically low levels if the Strait of Hormuz can’t reopen, and the New York Fed’s Global Supply Chain Pressure Index is at its highest since COVID-era peaks. All while Google surges, Meta falters, and Microsoft tests out usage based pricing under margin pressure.

  • The US-China summit is touted as a breakthrough, but 4 unresolved conflicts stand in the way: AI chip export controls and smuggling routes through Singapore and Thailand, China’s satellite support for Iran, the Taiwan reunification deadline of 2027, and the decades-long unfair China trade disputes and Section 301 investigations at the USTR. Between the Supermicro founder personally smuggling NVIDIA servers to China, NVIDIA Blackwell and Vera Rubin chip restrictions, the Shadow Fleet sanctions evasion network in Hong Kong, are there just too many issues to resolve peacefully?
