CFRA's Ken Leon believes Walt Disney (DIS) is "moving on its front foot" in streaming. He says the company is now utilizing all arms of entertainment, adding that a "reenergized" ESPN will give Disney shares more room to run. Gerald Sparrow adds that Disney's other businesses, like parks and cruises, adds a value cushion to the stock.

"It's hard not to be bullish," says Wayne Kaufman, even as markets enter the seasonally weak period of August and September. He makes the case that the A.I. trade is accelerating and could bring energy stocks alongside its rally. He labels TSMC (TSM) as a top stock due to its leadership position in A.I., helped by Nvidia (NVDA) and AMD Inc.'s (AMD) reliance on it. Wayne adds Dell Technologies (DELL), Seagate (STX), and Alphabet (GOOGL) to that list.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

By Design or Organic? Profound Culture Change Oncoming and Accelerating w/ Dr. Drew - SarahWestall

Ep. 264 How Automation Is Accelerating Digital Transformation Across Federal Agencies Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn   https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com In this episode of the Federal Tech Podcast, host John Gilroy interviews Nabil Amiri, Vice President of Business Development for the federal practice at NWN. The discussion introduces NWN's expanding role in helping federal agencies adopt advanced technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), as part of broader digital transformation efforts. Amiri explains NWN's recent acquisition of Leverage Information, a move that brought deep federal experience—especially with defense, intelligence, and civilian agencies—into NWN's already strong commercial portfolio. This merger allows NWN to deliver robust, secure IT solutions tailored to the complexities of federal requirements such as FedRAMP, STIGs, and Zero Trust. He emphasizes that innovation and compliance can—and must—coexist in the federal space. The conversation touches on the real-world challenges federal agencies face, like outdated systems, budget cuts, workforce reductions, and tool sprawl. Amiri critiques the proliferation of “single panes of glass” in IT environments, which often complicate rather than simplify operations. NWN's strength lies in delivering visibility across systems, reducing complexity, and enabling security and automation through integrated, scalable platforms. Key themes include Zero Trust architecture, infrastructure modernization, automation, and streamlining tech procurement. NWN's flexible acquisition pathways (e.g., via GSA and SEWP contracts) make it easier for agencies to respond quickly to crises like COVID or cyberattacks. On AI, Amiri emphasizes its role in real-time data analysis to improve visibility and prevent outages, critical for mission continuity. NWN remains vendor-neutral, working with a broad ecosystem of partners to deliver best-in-class, mission-focused outcomes. Looking ahead, Amiri confidently predicts that AI will become foundational to all federal IT strategies, driving operational resilience and transformation in the next five years. The interview sets the stage for deeper dives into emerging topics like agentic AI and cloud-native strategies in future discussions.

Nearly 60 Texas Democrat state representatives have fled the Lone Star state, abandoning their legislative offices, their districts, and their constituents, all to prevent the legislature from having the quorum to carry on business.The reason? The majority Republicans intend to vote for a redistricting plan that would cost the states Democrat representatives to the US House several seats—perhaps as many as five—and in particular would likely drive Progressive idols Jasmine Crockett and Al Green out of office. Governor Greg Abbott isn't taking any of this laying down, however, and he's using every legal means at his disposal to hold these run-away, feckless and cowardly Democrat representatives accountable for having fled their responsibilities and their constituents, and for locking up the entire Texas legislature from also voting out desperately needed aid for the victims of the terrible recent floods. Abbott has now turned to the Texas Supreme Court with a demand that they find these representatives have abandoned their legislative seats—with particular specificity for the Chair of the Texas House Democratic Caucus, Representative Gene Wu, who fled the state with other Democrats. Having these runaway Democrat reps declared absent  would create an instant quorum of the remaining representatives present in the state house.  The Supreme Court, in turn, has demanded a substantive response from Representative Wu by 5PM tomorrow—OR ELSE. The #1 guide for understanding when using force to protect yourself is legal.

In this thought-provoking episode of the Venture Capital Podcast, hosts Jon Bradshaw and Peter Harris explore the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence and its far-reaching implications for economics, labor, and opportunities. The conversation opens with Peter reflecting on his 16 years of VC experience and the unprecedented speed at which generative AI is impacting every industry, likening the current era to previous technological shifts such as the rise of the internet, mobile, and SaaS, but at a much more accelerated, all-encompassing pace.Jon shares candid anxieties and perspectives from the founder's side, debating whether society is overestimating the short-term disruption of AI while underestimating its long-term impact. The hosts explore parallels between AI's rise and earlier workforce interventions, such as calculators and spreadsheets, suggesting that while some jobs will evolve or disappear, new types of roles and vast opportunities will emerge.They debate the looming questions around AGI, the shifting utility of STEM degrees, and the growing importance of learning how to think critically and adapt. The discussion delves into:The shifting economics of labor versus capital as AI and robotics automate more tasks.The likely deflationary impact of AI, how costs may decline, and whether wages will keep pace.The paradox of abundance: more possibilities than ever, but also greater competition and the necessity for specialization.The challenge of retraining, critical thinking, and the risk of over-reliance on AI as a cognitive crutch.Wealth concentration, potential social upheaval, and whether universal basic income or new types of jobs will take hold.Unique advantages in interpersonal and relationship-driven sectors, and how VCs and founders might sustain an edge in an automated world.The episode concludes with tangible advice for the next generation: develop deep, critical, interdisciplinary knowledge and be prepared to leverage rather than be replaced by AI. Jon and Peter encourage listeners to reflect on how they'll stay relevant, creative, and entrepreneurial in a world where opportunity and risk are amplifying in tandem. This episode is essential listening for anyone curious about the future of work, education, and value creation in an AI-driven era.Follow the PodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/venturecapitalfm/Twitter: https://twitter.com/vcpodcastfmLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/venturecapitalfm/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7BQimY8NJ6cr617lqtRr7N?si=ftylo2qHQiCgmT9dfloD_g&nd=1&dlsi=7b868f1b72094351Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/venture-capital/id1575351789Website: https://www.venturecapital.fm/Follow Jon BradshawLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mrbradshaw/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrjonbradshaw/Twitter: https://twitter.com/mrjonbradshawFollow Peter HarrisLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterharris1Twitter: https://twitter.com/thevcstudentInstagram: https://instagram.com/shodanpeteYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@peterharris2812

In this KE Report company update, Tara Christie, President and CEO of Banyan Gold, outlines a major strategic milestone for the company - the acceleration to 100% ownership of the AurMac Gold Project in Yukon. Key takeaway: Banyan is simplifying its ownership structure, eliminating legacy royalty entanglements, and gaining greater control over project development - all while preserving cash.   Highlights from the Interview: AurMac Ownership Deal: Banyan has entered an agreement with PricewaterhouseCoopers, receiver of Victoria Gold's assets, to acquire the remaining interest and eliminate multiple royalties and rights. • $2M cash due on closing, plus $1.6M in cash or shares within 75 days. • Expected to close by August 25th. Strategic Upside: • No further PEA requirement post-close, giving Banyan flexibility to include this year's drilling. • Simplifies ownership and reduces legal/financial overhang for potential investors or partners. • Eliminates constraints tied to Victoria Gold, enhancing independence and optionality. Drill Program & High-Grade Focus: • Over 100 holes drilled (~20,000m) toward a 30,000m program, running through October. • High-grade zones (e.g. 16m of 9 g/t Au) are being further defined — potential game-changers for a future PEA and starter pit economics. Strong Treasury: • ~$17M in cash post-spring financing, giving flexibility without near-term need for dilution or royalty sales. Growing Interest from Majors: • Multiple site visits ongoing into September. • Infrastructure advantages and visible high-grade core make AurMac an attractive project.

Today we're talking about something that's top-of-mind for a lot of you: closing the reliability gaps in increasingly complex analog and mixed-signal IC designs—and doing it earlier, faster, and more systematically.As designs become more heterogeneous and integration of IP blocks more intricate, traditional simulation and ERC tools often aren't enough. They're reactive by nature, catching issues too late in the flow—when rework is costly, and design intent is harder to trace.That's why “shift-left” verification has become more than just a buzzword. It's a strategic necessity. And today's conversation is all about one of the tools helping to make that shift actionable: Siemens' Insight Analyzer.

Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn   https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com   Artificial Intelligence can dazzle people to the point where they lose focus on the objectives of the federal agency. In today's interview, Adam Lurie from Knexus begins by discussing a corporate strategy that combines research and innovation with engineering. This approach has been consistent over decades of serving the federal government. One stellar example of this fusion was their success in the $919 million 10-year Supply Chain Risk Illumination Professional Tools and Services (SCRIPTS) Blanket Purchase Agreement from the GSA. One of the challenges in “applied” AI is the data itself. Often, particularly in the federal government, there are strict rules governing the handling of data. We have all heard about the encryption of data at rest and data in transit. Given this limitation, it may be challenging to establish an iterative process that optimizes security and reliability. The answer from Knexus is to use synthetic data to emulate an actual sensitive federal data set. That way, several methods can be used to rapidly identify foreign influence, monitor vendor integrity, and visualize complex risk management scenarios. This innovation enables developers to optimize the security of a supply chain, taking into account variations that incorporate modern technologies and adapt to emerging threats. A key partner in this creative approach is Google. Knexus was recently named 2025's Google Cloud Business Application Partner of the Year for Government. Retaining security while innovating will be the key to applying AI to solve federal business needs now and in the future.

Sponsored content from Shoals Technologies Group.EBOS – electrical balance of systems – includes everything that carries electricity from solar panels to the grid: wiring, switches, connector boxes and other components. It might not grab headlines, but it's the backbone of every solar and storage project, and is essential to performance, reliability and project success. In this special episode of The Energy Gang, host Ed Crooks talks with Stephen LaFleur, Senior Director of Sales for Utility-Scale Solar at Shoals Technologies Group, about why getting EBOS right is critical. Stephen explains how incorporating EBOS early in project planning helps EPCs and developers avoid delays, lower costs, and ensure long-term reliability.Connectors are just one example of an EBOS component that can cause serious issues. A recent report from HelioVolta found that 83% of projects surveyed had at least one connector-related issue, many of them due to simple installation mistakes. In one solar portfolio, connector failure and replacement costs added up to nearly 60% of annual revenues. So how can developers avoid that kind of severe cost impact? Stephen and Ed discuss. Also joining the conversation is Grant Reasor – he's an Associate Electrical Engineer for Solar PV and Storage Projects at Burns & McDonnell, the international architecture, engineering and construction firm. From a project engineer's point of view, he unpacks why EBOS matters more than ever, especially as the industry shifts to higher voltages and looks to repower aging solar sites.The solar and storage industries are evolving fast. Stephen and Grant break down how smart EBOS choices can improve efficiency, reduce risk, and support the next wave of clean energy growth.This episode is brought to you by Shoals Technologies Group. If you are in clean energy, you know that project success depends on more than just panels and batteries, it's about the electrical backbone that connects it all. That's where Shoals comes in. Their factory-built, rigorously-tested EBOS solutions for solar and storage streamline installs, reduce costs, and improve long-term reliability. Want to learn more?
