So Warren Buffett just dropped his quarterly 13F filing (think of it as his investment diary that he's legally required to share), and boy, did the market pay attention. When the Oracle of Omaha speaks – or in this case, when his $260 billion portfolio speaks – people listen. Here's the tea: Berkshire Hathaway added six new stocks to their collection, and one of them absolutely exploded. We're talking about UnitedHealth Group, which shot up 14% faster than you can say ...

Remember when your biggest financial worry was whether to splurge on the name-brand cereal? Well, Big Tech just said "hold my kombucha" and decided to drop $400 billion on AI infrastructure. That's not a typo – that's more money than most countries see in their wildest GDP dreams. While everyone's arguing about whether AI stocks are overvalued (spoiler: they're probably not done climbing), the smart money is following a simple rule: follow the actual money. And right now, that money is ...

Look, we've all heard about the "Magnificent Seven" tech stocks, but let me introduce you to their cooler, more comprehensive cousin: the "Ten Titans." These are the biggest growth-focused companies in the U.S., and they're basically carrying the entire S&P 500 on their shoulders like some kind of financial Atlas situation. The Ten Titans include the usual suspects—Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, plus Broadcom, Tesla, Oracle, and Netflix. Together, they make up over 37% of the S&P 500. Yeah, that's ...

So, Mark Zandi—Moody's chief economist and the guy who probably has more economic data bookmarked than you have TikToks saved—just casually dropped on X (formerly Twitter, because apparently we're all still figuring that out) that the US economy is "on the precipice of recession." Cool. Cool cool cool. Now, before you start panic-buying canned goods and converting your 401k into gold coins, Zandi isn't saying we're in a recession yet. He's more like that friend who sees storm clouds and goes, "Hey, ...

So here's a plot twist nobody saw coming: Google just backed a Bitcoin mining company with $1.8 billion. No, they didn't suddenly become crypto bros. This is actually way smarter than it sounds. Meet TeraWulf (WULF), a company that was basically the poster child for "Bitcoin mining is hard." You know how Bitcoin gets "halved" every four years, cutting mining rewards in half? Yeah, that happened in April, and it's been rough for miners. Even with Bitcoin prices doing their thing, ...

You know that feeling when you're scrolling through your bank account after a shopping spree, simultaneously proud of your purchases and horrified by your balance? Well, that's basically the entire U.S. economy right now. Two reports dropped on Friday that perfectly capture our collective economic confusion. On one hand, Americans are still shopping like there's no tomorrow. On the other hand, we're all apparently convinced the world is ending. It's giving major "this is fine" dog energy. The Good News: We're Still ...

You know what's wild? While everyone's been obsessing over AI hype and Fed rate cuts, Congress quietly slipped in a tax rule change that's about to make some stocks look way better on paper. And nobody's talking about it. Here's the deal: Remember how companies used to be able to write off their R&D spending immediately? Yeah, well from 2022-2024, Uncle Sam said "nope" and made them spread it out over five years. Basically punishing companies for, you know, actually innovating. But ...

Remember when making a billion dollars seemed like a big deal? Apple just casually added $394 billion to its market cap in three days. That's like creating an entire Home Depot out of thin air – except instead of selling lumber and confusing customers in the plumbing aisle, they're just... existing. Here's what happened: Apple's stock jumped from $202.69 to $229.09 between August 5th and 8th. That's a 13% pop that would make your crypto portfolio jealous (if it hadn't already ...
