The Sun’s Secret Recipe Just Got Leaked (And It’s About to Make Some People Very Rich)

Remember when your high school physics teacher said nuclear fusion was "always 30 years away"? Well, plot twist: it might actually be more like 5-10 years away. And no, I'm not talking about some sci-fi fever dream. In December 2022, 192 lasers fired at a tiny gold capsule in California and did something humanity had never done before: they got more energy out than they put in. It was basically the scientific equivalent of finally beating the house in Vegas, except ...

The Chip Rally is Back: Why AMD and NVIDIA Just Hit the Reset Button

Remember when everyone was panicking about chip stocks last week? Yeah, well, they're back with a vengeance today, and it's like watching your favorite underdog team suddenly remember how to play. NVIDIA and AMD are leading the charge this morning, and honestly, it couldn't have come at a better time. NVIDIA got a nice little boost when Foxconn (you know, the folks who make your iPhone) reported profits jumped 17% year-over-year. More importantly, they're basically saying "AI demand is going to ...

Tech Stocks Are Getting the Cold Shoulder (And It’s Not Just Because of the Weather)

So here's the thing about October: while everyone was busy carving pumpkins and arguing about candy corn, hedge funds were busy carving up tech stocks. And by carving up, I mean shorting the hell out of them. The Nasdaq had a pretty decent month, climbing nearly 5%. You'd think that would make investors happy, right? Wrong. Apparently, when tech stocks do well, some very smart (and very wealthy) people start getting nervous. It's like that friend who gets suspicious when everything's ...

And before you roll your eyes, hear me out – this isn't another pie-in-the-sky tech story. In December 2022, scientists in California did something pretty wild.

Washington Finally Gets Its Act Together (Sort Of) – And Markets Are Having a Party

Well, well, well. After more than a month of Washington playing the world's most expensive game of chicken, senators finally decided to act like adults last night. They voted 60-40 to advance a stopgap funding bill that would reopen the government and keep the lights on through late January. Revolutionary stuff, really. The bill doesn't include everything Democrats wanted (shocking, I know), but it does promise a separate vote on Affordable Care Act subsidies in December. Because nothing says "efficient governance" ...

Tech Stocks Are Getting the Cold Shoulder (And It’s Not Just Because of the Weather)

So here's the thing about October: while everyone was busy arguing about pumpkin spice everything, hedge funds were quietly betting against some of tech's biggest names. And by "betting against," I mean short-selling them like they're going out of style. The Nasdaq had a pretty solid month, climbing nearly 5%. You'd think that would make everyone happy, right? Wrong. Apparently, when tech stocks do well, some very smart (and very wealthy) people start getting nervous. It's like that friend who gets ...
