Remember when everyone thought using computers to pick stocks was insane? That was the 1970s. Now, 80% of daily trading is done by algorithms. Plot twist: we're about to do it again—except this time with AI that literally won a Nobel Prize for mapping proteins. Here's the wild part: the same deep learning technology that's revolutionizing medicine—diagnosing cancer three years early, designing drugs in hours instead of years—is now being weaponized against the stock market. And the results are bonkers. A 47-year ...

Here's the thing about AI that nobody talks about: it's not actually new. It's just finally good enough to matter. Take Demis Hassabis, the neuroscientist who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry last year for building AlphaFold2—an AI that mapped 200 million proteins in hours. Before that, figuring out protein shapes took researchers years in the lab. Now it's a coffee break. That same deep learning technology? It's now being applied to something way less noble but infinitely more profitable: picking stocks. I've ...

In a letter dated this Monday, Einhorn wrote: "With so little downside priced in, we are willing to ...

While everyone watches oil spike past $100 a barrel and the Fed twist in the wind, one metal has been building a monster case that most investors are still sleeping on: copper.

Here's the thing about hot IPOs: they're designed to make you feel like you're missing out. A company everyone knows goes public, the stock doubles before lunch, and suddenly you're watching CNBC anchors breathlessly declare it "the next great technology platform."
