Remember startup unicorns? Those pre-AI darlings? Half of them haven't raised money in 3 years. Their valuations are down 55-68%. No revenue model. No exits. Is this a preview of what’s going to happen to AI firms, sans business models? ▶️ zurl.co/y4lbd #startups #venturecapital #economy

AI business models are nonexistent. Soaring compute costs, like a $500M token surprise bill, are now causing major heartburn for enterprise customers. Maybe it's not be a drag on mega IPOs in the short run, but it's definitely a problem for the sector. ▶️ zurl.co/3GBFt #AI #Tech #Anthropic

Ferrari made an EV and people are acting like they kicked a puppy. Was the design risky? Yes. Did they do it anyway? Obviously. Should you care why? Absolutely. We break it down in our new episode ▶️ zurl.co/x8GHU #Ferrari #FerrariLuce #ElectricCars

Anthropic just hit a $965B valuation, nearly *tripling* from $380B in February. Pre-IPO. That speed should make everyone ask what changed, because the AI race is repricing faster than anyone expected. New episode ▶️ zurl.co/vLyUE #Anthropic #AI #Tech

Everyone's focused on tariffs. The quieter play: China targets companies BEFORE they patent, absorbs the IP, files it in China, then walks away. By the time you notice, the competitive moat is gone. This is the actual economic war. zurl.co/YW9gA #China #IPTheft #MadeInChina2025

China didn't invade the West. It just bought things. A lot of things. Secret things. A new study on the full scope / implications of Chinese foreign investment is out and honestly it reads like a heist movie. zurl.co/P0m6q #China #Geopolitics #ForeignPolicy

Economic stress is real. Consumer sentiment hits record lows, and the downward trend is accelerating. #Economy #ConsumerBehavior #MarketTrends #GoodRevenue

Pope Leo just called for disarming AI. Highlighting the "culture of power" driving the AI arms race, he warned critical decisions about morality, humanity, and consequences cannot be delegated away. AI must serve humanity, not the other way around. ▶️ zurl.co/UcGHb #AI #PopeLeo #AIPolicy

Rough times ahead for gas prices... even if that Iran War "truce" firms up. The national average is now $4.56, up 3 cents from last week and $1.38 higher than last year. Brace yourselves, it's going to get worse before it gets better. #GasPrices #Economy #Inflation #EnergyCrisis #NewsUpdate

Anthropic has an October IPO target. OpenAI has a massive list of unresolved problems. The race to go public in 2026 is real and the clock is already running out for one of them (OpenAI expected to confidentially file any minute now!). zurl.co/5sn8X #OpenAI #Anthropic #TechIPO

OpenAI missed user targets, missed revenue targets, and is projected to burn $115B by 2029. Altman spent 2025 signing deals that are now falling apart. This is not a rough patch. This is a pattern. zurl.co/x6GVG #OpenAI #AINews #TechNews

Everyone is celebrating AI adoption but nobody is talking about who actually pays when the model runs 10x more than expected. Usage-based pricing shifts all the risk to buyers. CFOs are about to start canceling contracts. zurl.co/vpgmQ #AI #SaaS

Meta printed serious profits and investors are still mad. Why? Billions in AI spending from a company that built its reputation on NOT spending billions. Their CapEx track record is rough. This is a trust problem, not a numbers problem. zurl.co/VGlkU #Meta #TechEarnings

OpenAI raised billions, is worth trillions on paper, and somehow cannot close an $18B deal? The most powerful AI lab in the world is one GPU shortage away from a very bad quarter. zurl.co/kxEte #OpenAI #AI #Tech

Everyone's celebrating AI investment. But the supply chain index just hit its highest point since 2022. The boom and the warning are happening at the same time. zurl.co/8b2mb #economy #AIbubble #markets

AI capex hits $725B this year, up 77%! And last year was hardly lightweight with $410B in spending. Meanwhile the Iran war is reshaping the global economy in ways the stock market isn't showing you. We break down what the charts actually say. zurl.co/3UNau #AI #Economy

Satya Nadella just testified Musk never raised concerns about Microsoft's $13B OpenAI investment. Musk says the $10B 2023 deal was the nonprofit mission betrayal tipping point. Who's right? zurl.co/0hsjp #OpenAI #TechNews

The US tried to split the difference on AI chip exports to China: sell some, block the best. Turns out that just guaranteed smuggling while angering everyone. We break down why this policy pleased nobody and what comes next for the US-China Cold War. ▶️ zurl.co/iWS8V #AI #USChina #TechWar

Hot take: some US tariffs are actually grounded in real law. China dumping goods below market to wipe out US competitors is not a conspiracy theory. Section 301 exists for exactly this reason, and the data shows how bad the real China trade problem is. ▶️ zurl.co/16xLt #China #Tariffs #TradeWar

Big US-China summit incoming this week. Lots of pomp & circumstance, few serious solutions = both sides likely to declare victory post. AI chips, Taiwan, Iran, trade? All still broken! Full breakdown here: ▶️ zurl.co/lJBpC #USChina #Geopolitics #AI #Trade

Warner Bros is theoretically being sold to the Ellisons/ Paramount. Except the financing is so shaky and unrealistic that 3 Gulf state interests will likely end up running it. An American media giant quietly being sold off to foreign owners for no good reason. ▶️ zurl.co/s3PK8 #WarnerBros #Media

The Pentagon has a munitions shortage so bad it's calling in automakers. Private equity is quietly reshaping who builds America's weapons ‚Äî and it's putting legacy defense contractors on notice. This is a bigger shift than it sounds. ▶️ zurl.co/fqICv #defense #military

Everyone's watching Saudi vs UAE but the real story is smaller OPEC members caught in the crossfire. A price war between rich Gulf states could quietly destroy the cartel from the inside out. ▶️ zurl.co/ySSbo #OPEC #OilWar #GlobalEnergy

The Pentagon is now managing defense contractors like PE portfolio companies. Years of cost overruns and delays finally pushed someone to try something different. Whether that is genius or terrifying depends on who is asking. ▶️ zurl.co/eLtkz #Defense #Military #GoodRevenue

China just killed Meta's $2.5B Manus AI deal mid-integration. Not blocked at the border, vetoed after the fact. That's a new playbook, and every tech company doing business in China should be paying attention. ▶️ zurl.co/qikMt #AI #China #Meta

Ford and GM are quietly talking to the Pentagon about rearming America while also partnering with Chinese EV makers. The same companies. Same moment. That tension is not an accident. ▶️ zurl.co/4F08Y #defense #geopolitics #EV

UAE left OPEC last week (after 60 years!). Everyone's blaming the war, but this was coming. Quotas capped them at 3.5M barrels while they want 5M by 2027. The real story: UAE is racing to sell oil before EVs make it worthless. ▶️ zurl.co/kYY19 #OPEC #UAE #BehavioralFinance

Elon Musk vs Sam Altman trial week 1! Can you steal a charity? OpenAI lawyers deny Musk's claims of nonprofit promises. Musk’s team says this isn’t personal, it’s about leadership & Microsoft’s role. (Trial ongoing. $134B+ in damages sought.) ▶️ zurl.co/nKppv #OpenAI #Musk #AI #TechNews #Lawsuit

Iran built an entire shadow economy around oil smuggling. The real story isn't the blockade, it's how long a sanctioned state can survive when its workaround gets dismantled. ▶️ zurl.co/on6HL #Iran #ShadowEconomy #Geopolitics

China sold Iran a satellite + access to China-based ground stations being using to target US assets and allies in the Gulf according to the FT. Why isn't this a bigger deal in the wider US-China rivalry? ▶️ zurl.co/hwisD #Geopolitics #EnergyMarkets #OPEC

UAE didn't leave OPEC today despite the chaos. They left BECAUSE of it. Oil at $110, Saudi relations broken, EVs coming. They timed the exit perfectly. Watch for copycats = end of OPEC? zurl.co/sHpD2 #OilWar #OPEC #GoodRevenue

Amazon vs Starlink is a win for consumers. What does it do to the main business driver inside SpaceX? ▶️ zurl.co/fHGz9 #Starlink #Bezos #SpaceEconomy

Anthropic's dangerous Mythos AI is compromised just as the firm hits $1T valuation. Meanwhile, China's illegally distilling top US AI models and is just 7 months behind. And that's not even the thing that might stall out AI's progress. ▶️ zurl.co/N93Bi #AI #Anthropic #Geopolitics

SpaceX wants your money. Not your opinion. Musk keeps the votes, you get the risk, and you might even end up as a shareholder without even trying... ▶️ zurl.co/hufh2 #SpaceX #ElonMusk #Investing

SpaceX is giving retail investors 30% of the IPO float. Generous, or is Main Street being handed the bag while insiders lock in gains? ▶️ zurl.co/AtcNR #SpaceX #ElonMusk #Markets #IPO

Apple's new CEO, John Turnus, faces big challenges and opportunities. With deep expertise in hardware and recent oversight of robotics, can he deliver category creating products for Apple or are they doomed to incremental improvements? ▶️ zurl.co/Yzg7J #Apple #Innovation #GoodRevenue

Musk says OpenAI's $134B valuation is ill-gotten. The nonprofit status, tax breaks, donor trust, all used to secretly build a for-profit empire. OpenAI calls it ego & jealousy on Musks's part. Are they both right? ▶️ zurl.co/zLN0E #OpenAI #ElonMusk #GoodRevenue

Tim Cook steps down as Apple CEO after 15 years. John Ternus takes over in the Fall as Apple doubles down on hardware and on-device AI. With rivals investing $650B in cloud AI in 2026, can Apple’s privacy-first, device-integrated strategy win? ▶️ zurl.co/5fBfe #Apple #AI #BigTech #GoodRevenue

OpenAI is withdrawing from 2 Stargate projects + leasing compute back from Microsoft, in a pre-IPO balance sheet cleanup. Ironically, an internal OpenAI memo criticizing the Microsoft partnership just leaked right as OpenAI becomes more dependent on it. ▶️ zurl.co/iIyvJ #OpenAI #IPO #GoodRevenue

1,000+ Hollywood creatives are urging the government to block the Paramount-Warner Brothers merger. California's AG is listening. And every day this deal gets delayed, it costs the Ellisons more money. Time is actually a weapon here. ▶️ zurl.co/56Knt #Hollywood #Antitrust #GoodRevenue

A NY jury just found Ticketmaster guilty of illegally monopolizing US concert ticketing, which has been the fear ever since the 2010 Live Nation merger. It took 16 years, 30 state AGs, and regular people to do what Congress wouldn't handle. ▶️ zurl.co/taiTz #Ticketmaster #Antitrust #GoodRevenue

Amazon spent $11B to acquire Globalstar, a direct move to rival Starlink with a global low Earth orbit network. The real play may be locking up satellite slots before Starlink or anyone else can claim them. ▶️ zurl.co/dvXKB #Amazon #Starlink #GoodRevenue

Allbirds went from $4B valuation to selling its IP for $39M. This week it rebranded as Newbird AI and said it would lease GPUs. And its market cap hit $148M. Apparently you really can slap AI on anything right now... ▶️ zurl.co/iU51y #AI #Markets #GoodRevenue

OpenAI sidelined its CFO for saying they weren't IPO ready. Then came the investigative reports and executive chaos. Removing the person who checks the math before going public is a choice. 🤔 ▶️ zurl.co/yuf2S #OpenAI #ElonMusk #GoodRevenue

Mythos, Anthropic's new AI model, is too powerful for the average bear. It’s uncovered thousands of critical vulnerabilities across major operating systems and browsers, so for now, access is limited to top firms. With power like that, what’s the long game? #Cybersecurity #Anthropic #GoodRevenue
