Despite claims of boosting growth, his actions are fueling inflation, widening inequality, and creating harmful uncertainty.

The result is likely more frustration for most, as stock market gains and AI benefits largely bypass the working class.

AI’s potential is undeniable, but a top economist warns the current investment frenzy mirrors a classic bubble risk. Jeremy Siegel points to the dot-com bust, where plummeting infrastructure costs deflated valuations, as a cautionary tale for today’s massive data center spending.

U.S. Supreme Court poised to dismantle another campaign finance limit in major case. The conservative majority will hear arguments on coordinated spending limits between parties and candidates.

Microsoft has silently patched a critical Windows shortcut flaw, CVE-2025-9491, long exploited by state-sponsored and cybercriminal groups to hide malicious commands. The update forces Windows to reveal the full command in shortcut properties, closing a deceptive obfuscation trick.

While mitigated, the widespread historical abuse means unpatched systems remain at risk from this social engineering threat.

As Jensen teaches investors to think beyond iPhone cycles to AI factories and sovereign AI, the growth story is just beginning.
