Stellantis loses $2.6B in first half, citing tariffs and expensive turnaround plan Driver testing company sues Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, alleging unlawful shutdown

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint.. I'm Nelson John and here are today's top stories. 1. “No Fences, Just Food” – Trump's Gaza Pledge With emotion in his voice, U.S. President Donald Trump has announced the setup of “food centres” across Gaza—open, unfenced zones where civilians can access aid freely. Speaking from Scotland after meeting UK PM Keir Starmer, Trump said, “You can't fake starvation… They have to get food and safety right now.”Starmer echoed the urgency, calling the situation “an absolute catastrophe.” Despite daily Israeli pauses for aid delivery, relief efforts remain insufficient. Only 60 trucks entered Gaza recently, well below the World Food Programme's target of 100 per day. Trump also issued a direct message to Israeli PM Netanyahu: “You have to end it.” Global pressure is rising—from London to Paris—as the focus shifts from geopolitics to humanitarian survival. 2. “₹12,000 Trillion & Counting” – India's Digital Payments Boom India's digital payment ecosystem has logged over 65,000 crore transactions worth ₹12,000 trillion between FY19 and FY25. From remote villages to roadside kirana stores, adoption is widespread.Minister Pankaj Chaudhary said the Payments Infrastructure Development Fund has enabled 4.77 crore touchpoints, boosting financial inclusion across Northeast India and J&K.The RBI Digital Payments Index has risen to 465.33 (Sept 2024), up from the base of 100 in 2018, signaling how deeply embedded digital payments are today.With UPI, BHIM incentives, TReDS for MSMEs, and alternative credit data, India is not just going cashless—it's unlocking formal credit access for millions. 3. “Dollar Dents Euro as Trade Tensions Cool” After months of anxiety, the dollar is back in form. A fresh U.S.-EU trade agreement—brokered by President Trump and EU's Ursula von der Leyen—halved proposed tariffs on EU goods to 15%, easing global fears of a trade war.The dollar rose 1.25% against the euro, 0.59% against the yen, and 1% against the Swiss franc. The pound too dipped 0.67% to $1.335.Investor sentiment improved further with U.S.–Japan and U.S.–China dialogues also in progress. U.S. stocks held steady, and eyes now turn to upcoming Fed and BOJ meetings, with both expected to hold rates steady.Meanwhile, Bitcoin dipped to $118,205, and Ethereum fell just below $3,801. 4. “Tremors Trigger Readiness Drills” – Quake Near Andamans A 6.3 magnitude earthquake shook the Bay of Bengal near the Andaman and Nicobar Islands at 12:11 am on July 29. The quake struck at a depth of 10 km; no damage or casualties were reported.This follows a 3.2 magnitude quake in Faridabad on July 22, felt across Delhi-NCR.In response, Delhi, Haryana, and UP have kicked off large-scale disaster drills—running from July 29 to August 1—focusing on earthquakes and industrial hazards.Coordinated by the NDMA and Indian Army, the drills aim to tighten disaster preparedness across the capital region. 5. “Musk's $16.5B Chip Bet” – Samsung's Foundry Lifeline Tesla CEO Elon Musk has signed a $16.5 billion chip deal with Samsung Electronics, reviving hopes for the company's struggling fab in Taylor, Texas.Tesla's next-gen AI6 chips will be produced there, and Musk says he'll “personally walk the line” to speed up progress. The deal runs through 2033 and could vastly exceed the initial commitment.Samsung, which already supplies Tesla's A14 chips, had struggled to find customers for the Texas fab. This order sent Samsung shares soaring nearly 7%, their highest since Sept 2023.While AI6 chip production is expected around 2027–28, this tie-up offers Samsung a much-needed lifeline—especially as it trails TSMC in the foundry race and posted a $3.6B loss in the past six months.

Send us a textIt's July 10th, and the Daily Drop is back with Jared dropping truth bombs harder than a B-1 on afterburner. From the announcement of the next Operator Training Summit in Nashville (spoiler: it's gonna slap) to the Pentagon lobbing real ones at Iran, this episode's got more hot takes than a Twitter war during a government shutdown.Jared breaks down military logistics like your drunk uncle explaining the NFL draft—passionate, slightly unhinged, but mostly right. He rants about AF simulators being broken garbage, drones flying into everything, the VA being predictably dysfunctional, and why the Air Force is still pretending they might keep the B-1 (spoiler: they're not). Also, the Space Force apparently needs another $6 billion. For what? Who knows.If you like your defense briefings with a side of sarcasm, a shot of cynicism, and topped with real-world experience, this one's for you.

And proxy season is only shareholder proposals and the anti woke? Are you fucking joking?No mention of the average approval for directors?No mention of the rise of activists - this is the most active year for activist investors in recent memory? Mike Levin has been cataloguing it on the Shareholder Primacy podcast - more activism, larger slates, more wins?Isn't the story how ISS and Glass Lewis ignore directors unless there's an activist involved? Or that views on how to measure director performance are shifting?No, the constant story we hear is about the 500 or so shareholder proposals that happen - not the 80,000 active directors that get a voteInvestors are racistPhilippine corporate governance hindered by highly concentrated ownership, OECD saysCONCENTRATED corporate ownership, particularly among family owned listed firms, undermines corporate governance, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) said.“These ownership structures often blur the lines between ownership and management, which can lead to the appointment of successors based on family ties or loyalty rather than qualifications, increasing the risk of poor leadership and weak oversight,It said such controlling shareholders may choose to benefit themselves at the expense of minority shareholders through related-party transactions, asset transfers or the appropriation of company resources for personal or familial use.The OECD said corporate governance weaknesses and concentrated ownership structures continue to weigh on investor confidence in some Asian marketsI read the Sweden report - Sweden is majority dual class shareholders held by foundations, with power concentrated amongst white men even though they mandate 40% women on boardsMinority shareholders basically have no real rights, as the companies are owned by a web of family and foundation interests - but OECD said:… a shareholder with practical majority control of the votes in the company can exert significant control, but also that efficient governance requires there to be a shareholder, or a coalition of shareholders, that monitors the company, engages with the board, and proposes and votes on important matters such as the election of board directors. Dual class share structures have been allowed in Swedish law for over a century to facilitate such engagement.Extensive individual shareholder rights, allowing any shareholder (regardless of the size of their holdings) to add items to the agenda of the general shareholder meeting, to ask the board questions at the general shareholder meeting, and to challenge a decision by the general shareholder meeting in court (with the court being able to invalidate a decision and even replace it with another).So it's ok in Sweden for the majority of the market to be controlled because shareholders can go to the annual meeting and complain without power, but in Asia where they don't bother pretending it's bad?Companies are fucking with your votesPress Release: Deirdre Stanley to Join PayPal's Board of Directors - Jun 24, 2025Increase board size, add person… 19 days after the AGMNo mention of expansion in the proxy, no mention of Deidre StanleyData I have on executive searches suggests it takes an average of about 220 days to find a CEO - assume that it takes 50% of that to place a directorThat would mean PayPal likely started searching for Deidre to join the board at the beginning of March this yearThe proxy came out April 21, 2025 - for nearly two months, PayPal knew it would expand the board and add this person, but it never mentioned it in the proxy or allowed investors to vote on their own representation?I ran numbers on how often this happens - companies fucking with the timelines to add directors to their boards without votes less than 30 days after the AGM. If you want the full numbers, go download our Proxy Countdown show, but here are the highlights:In the last 5 years, it's happened 247 times - at more than a dozen companies, it's happened more than onceAt Rockwell Automation, this happened EVERY YEAR for THREE YEARS - they paid a person without a voteHeadliniest of the WeekDR: People Are Being Involuntarily Committed, Jailed After Spiraling Into "ChatGPT Psychosis"MM: Elon Musk Says He Is So Sorry for His Horrible BehaviorWho Won the Week?DR: Charlize Theron: “I think we might be the only people who did not get an invite to the Bezos wedding.

In this episode of The Abundance Mindset, Vinney Chopra and Gualter Amarelo go deep on two absolutely critical factors for building a highly valuable business: systems and financeability. This is the tactical gold most business owners miss when trying to scale or prepare for an exit.   Vinney, who has scaled over 30 companies and built a $1.6B empire after starting with just $7, shares how building out detailed SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) not only frees his time but makes his businesses sellable at premium valuations.

This week on Market Mondays, we're breaking down a pivotal moment in the markets. After Apple, Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft reported earnings, we're asking: are these tech giants still long-term compounders, or are buybacks and creative accounting hiding peak performance? Alphabet's $70 billion stock buyback is under the spotlight, and Tesla's stock jumped on Robotaxi hype — even as its fundamentals weakened. Elon Musk says Tesla doesn't need to buy Uber, but is that a strategic power move or a missed opportunity in autonomous transport? Meanwhile, Huawei's new AI chip spooked Nvidia investors — are cracks forming in the king of semis, or will U.S. geopolitics protect its dominance?Beyond tech, we explore the consumer and macro landscape. Spotify is nearing a breakout — is this real growth or macro-fueled momentum? ARK Innovation is surging again — is Cathie Wood making a comeback or just catching a Nasdaq wave? Domino's missed on same-store sales, DoorDash made a $3.6B bid for Deliveroo, and e.l.f. just bought Hailey Bieber's Rhode brand for $1B. Is global consolidation the next growth phase in food delivery? Are influencer-led beauty brands the future — or a risky bet on hype? And with Monster, Celsius, and Vita Coco battling for beverage dominance, who really has the edge in a slowing economy?We also dive into the economic outlook. U.S. GDP contracted by -0.2%, inflation appears mild but sentiment is at historic lows, and Treasury yields are climbing. Are we heading into recession, stagflation, or just a soft patch? Is now the time to rotate into risk or go defensive? Gold topped $3,400, oil prices dipped despite demand, and Palantir landed a $795M federal AI contract — is this the beginning of a broader AI-government integration wave? Plus, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq surging while the Dow lags behind, we ask: is this the start of a real breakout — or another trap before the next downturn?Link to Invest Fest: https://investfest.com#MarketMondays #Tesla #Alphabet #Nvidia #Spotify #ARKK #EarningsSeason #StockMarket #Investing #Inflation #Recession #Gold #Oil #Palantir #ElonMusk #CathieWood #TechStocks #BigTech #AI #ConsumerSpending #BondsSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Live from Triad's Scale Summit in Atlanta, I got the opportunity to sit down with two Triad members who are driving SHP Financial's incredible growth—founding partner Keith Ellis Jr. and Chief Operating Officer Michelle Short.In this behind-the-scenes conversation, we unpack how SHP went from a 4-person startup to a 55-person firm who gathered $380M of total assets in 2024, growing to $1.6B of AUM. You'll hear how they scaled without burning out, built career tracks that turned interns into $80M producers, and created a culture-backed onboarding system that scales consistency, deepens trust, and reinforces what makes SHP different. 3 of the biggest insights from Keith and Michelle… #1.) How SHP Gathered $380M of Total Assets in 2024SHP didn't grow by grinding, they grew by stepping back. Instead of meeting with every client, SHP's founders focused on high-net-worth clients while their team of specialists handled planning, follow-up, and client management. The result? $380M of total assets without burnout or bottlenecks. #2.) The Onboarding System That Scales Consistency, Trust, and ReferralsEvery SHP hire starts with a Vision Session, a 1:1 with a partner, and a deep dive into the firm's culture handbook. From “Shipmates” to Enneagram walls, everything is built to align the team and protect the client experience. That's how SHP builds internal trust—and earns referrals without ever asking. #3.) SHP's 3-Tier Client Model That Protects Founder TimeBy segmenting clients into three tiers, SHP ensures their founders only meet with $2.5M+ prospects—while newer advisors gain reps with clients under $1M. The result? More capacity, clearer career paths, and 4x the asset growth with half the meetings.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/116FREE GIFT + JOIN THE DBDL INSIDER CREWToday's Gift: 30 minute 1:1 coaching call with BradAre you a financial advisor who feels stuck, needs help, or simply wants to have a conversation with Brad?

In Episode 98 of Taking It Back, Zak Paine, Adel Nero, and Frankie Val come out swinging with hard-hitting commentary on a week of political and cultural shockwaves. Kicking off with the historic appointment of Cardinal Robert Prevost as the first American pope, the hosts debate whether this is a geopolitical milestone or just another establishment move by a left-leaning Vatican. Frank weighs in with the Catholic perspective, warning that the globalist agenda may now have a new pulpit. The bulk of the episode is a deep dive into the Epstein file chaos. The team breaks down conflicting narratives between James Comer, Pam Bondi, and Kash Patel about whether the infamous files still exist, or have been destroyed. They debate whether Bondi's “tens of thousands of videos” comment refers only to Epstein or hints at a massive blackmail network implicating elites around the world. James O'Keefe's undercover revelation about Prince Andrew adds fuel to the fire, but the guys aren't buying the mainstream hype, they want names, arrests, and real accountability. With frustration building online, the hosts sound off on the wave of blackpilled pessimism plaguing the movement, pointing fingers at coordinated demoralization ops designed to erode faith and momentum. They call for discernment, unity, and a long-view approach to justice, while reminding listeners to stay sharp and stay engaged. The episode wraps with coverage of Trump's $6B trade win with the UK, how tariffs are reshaping America's leverage, and what it will take to make these wins permanent. Smart, sarcastic, and no-holds-barred, Taking It Back once again pulls no punches in the fight for truth.

In this episode of Technovation, Peter High speaks with Mark Sherwood, Chief Information Officer at Wolters Kluwer, a €6B global professional services and software firm headquartered in the Netherlands.

It's not Pac-Man or Donkey Kong or even Pong… it's The Oregon Trail.

Find out why this iconic game is a textbook MVP (Minimum Viable Product)… how an acquisition by Shark Tank's “Mr. Wonderful” almost led to a collab with Barbie… and why the Oregon Trail is the best idea yet.Subscribe to The Best Idea Yet for the untold origin stories of the products you're obsessed with, and the bold risk takers who brought them to life.
