Remember Danny Moses? Yeah, the guy who helped blow up the housing market in 2008 and made Michael Lewis write a whole book about it. Well, he's back with some advice that sounds absolutely bonkers until you think about it for five seconds: you should be paying attention to prediction markets. Now before you roll your eyes and mutter something about "gambling," hear me out. Moses isn't talking about throwing your rent money on whether Taylor Swift will announce another album ...

Remember when economics made sense? When more jobs meant more growth, and fewer jobs meant recession? Yeah, well, AI just threw that playbook out the window and is now doing donuts in the parking lot. Here's the wild part: we might be heading into a year where unemployment hits 6% while GDP soars to 5%. If that sounds like economic fan fiction, welcome to 2026, where the robots are taking over but somehow making everyone (well, some people) richer. The Numbers Don't ...

Remember when nuclear power was about as popular as a root canal? Well, Meta just changed that narrative faster than you can say "AI data center." The social media giant dropped some serious cash on a nuclear deal with Vistra (VST), and suddenly everyone's talking about uranium like it's the new Bitcoin. Here's the deal: Meta signed 20-year contracts with Vistra to power up three nuclear facilities in Ohio and Pennsylvania. We're talking about the Perry, Davis-Besse, and Beaver Valley plants ...

According to FactSet's latest number-crunching, nearly 58% of the 12,700 stocks they analyzed got "Buy" ratings – the highest since ...

You know, those platforms where people bet on everything from who's going to win the Super Bowl to whether a cute collectible toy called Labubu will hit certain ...

Remember that kid in school who always crushed the curve and then actually shared their study notes? That's basically Piper Sandler right now, except instead of acing calculus, they just schooled the entire stock market. Their "Macro Select" stock-picking strategy returned about 22% in 2025, while the S&P 500 managed a respectable but comparatively pedestrian 16%. That's like showing up to a potluck with homemade lasagna when everyone else brought store-bought cookies – technically we're all contributing, but we know who ...

Okay, buckle up because 2026 is shaping up to be the weirdest economic year since... well, maybe ever. We're looking at a situation where the economy could be absolutely crushing it while regular folks are getting pink slips left and right.

We just got hit with news that job openings dropped to ...

Remember when nuclear power was about as popular as a root canal? Well, Meta just changed that narrative faster than you can say "ChatGPT needs more juice." The social media giant (yes, the one that brought us endless scroll addiction) just signed a massive nuclear energy deal with Vistra (VST), and honestly? It's kind of brilliant. While everyone's been arguing about whether AI will take our jobs, Meta quietly figured out the real problem: these AI data centers are hungrier for ...
