The markets barely moved when the Fed cut rates 25 basis points last week. Why? Everyone saw it coming. But here's another move the Fed made while nobody was looking. And it's way more important for your portfolio:

AI influences everything now. If you look for AI, you will find it. It is everywhere. It influences our speech, writing, and every aspect of our lives, even when we aren't using it - its influence is pervasive. So why are schools avoiding it?

By the end of 2026, half the AI companies burning VC cash today will be dead. Not because AI failed. Because they never had real business models. I built the first cloud-based voice platform before Alexa existed. I can tell you what separates builders from storytellers:

Healthcare doesn’t fail because of lack of effort. It fails because it’s built in silos. Doctors. Providers. Software. Families. Funders. All working hard, rarely together. Here's the problem:

In 1980, Scorsese delivered what he believed might be his last American film. In 2010, Russell delivered a gritty, modern story of family redemption. Two boxing films, 30 years apart, asking the same impossible question: Can a fighter escape the demons that define him?

My son was accused of “using ChatGPT” to write a paper at his Silicon Valley High School. He was threatened with failing his Senior English class and not graduating as a result. Public schools got bad and kept digging, but even I was surprised at how bad the situation was.

A senior cardiologist uncovered a shocking pattern: After analyzing 12,000 heart cases, he found the trigger behind 90% of heart attacks. It's not cholesterol, diet, or age. But this ONE morning habit most people repeat every day:

I was the kid with buckteeth. My mom cut my hair using a bowl on my head. My clothes were cheap hand-me-downs from my big brother. I detested being poor and made a solemn promise to myself that when I grew up, I would become a millionaire...
