Immigration crisis: it is interesting the number of folks that think I'm overly concerned about the immigration crisis instigated by Biden, if not earlier. Today, a headline: "Bombshell Memo Shows Biden Planned To Leave Trump With Even Bigger Immigration Crisis."
Social security: another interesting headline -- "New COLA formula could halve Social Security's 75-Year Shortfall Gap."
META: has closed lower for the past seven (7) trading days in a row. After backlash, META pauses plan to "rate limit" its smart glasses. The two may or may not be related. I think the drop in daily value for META is more related to its 2027 CAPEX.
Coming: an AI app that will manage your portfolio according to your rules and guidelines.
Google: CAPEX boosted forecast by $15 billion, now expecting to spend between $195 - 205 billion this year versus its prior forecast for $180 - 190 billion.
Yemen: the war has now expanded -- again -- Yemen.
