The AI Boom Is Real—The Market Just Isn’t Paying Attention

Copper Is Quietly Becoming the Trade of the Decade

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.

JPMorgan Just Beat Earnings — So Why Is the Stock Falling?

JPMorgan Chase delivered a strong first quarter on Tuesday, beating earnings expectations with record revenue from its markets and investment banking divisions.

OpenAI is targeting a public listing as early as Q4 2026, at a valuation near the trillion-dollar mark. The numbers backing that up are hard to argue with: $20 billion in annualized revenue growing at triple-digit rates, 810 million monthly active users, and 1 million enterprise customers ...
