CASEY'S GENERAL STORES, INC.At last year's annual meeting in August, shareholders were asked YES or NO on CEO Darren Robelez's pay plan. To help them make a decision on the pay practices they had information like the ratio of the annual total compensation of Casey's General Stores CEO to that of its median employee for the 2024 fiscal year, commonly known as the CEO Pay Ratio. Let's begin the quiz there:According to the company's SEC filing, at what point in the fiscal year 2024 did CEO Darren earn the compensation of his company's median employee?12:35:33 PM on January 1st, the first day of the work year, meaning his pay CEO pay ratio was 579:1Additionally, the CEO's target equity award was $6.7M. In the worst case scenario where every single peer company outperformed Casey's General Stores in terms of total shareholder return, how much equity could the CEO receive?$5,025,000, reflecting a TSR Modifier of -25%.Accordingly, based in part on the information you have just learned, what percentage of Casey's shareholders voted against his pay practices?2%Bonus question: According to the company's 2025 SEC filing, at what point in the fiscal year 2025 did CEO Darren earn the compensation of his company's median employee? Remember, it was 12:35:33 PM on January 1st, the first day of the work year.12:32:05 PM on January 1st, the first day of the work year: 3 minutes and 28 seconds earlier. AGM: 9/3/2025589:1 CEO pay ratio CEO Darren Robelez 98% YESPay committee: *Former BJ's Restaurants CEO Gregory Trojan, Oobli CEO Allison Wing2024 AGM99.1% YES average33% Influence CEO/Chair: 20% YES SHP independent board chair policy-13% gender influence gap: Darren M. Rebelez (33%) & Gregory A. Trojan (14%)CROWDSTRIKE HOLDINGS, INC.A recent Fortune article called Laying off workers because of AI is more of a fashionable excuse than a real business imperative cites CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz linking 5% job cuts to the cybersecurity company's need to double down on AI investments to “accelerate execution and efficiency.” Kurtz said: “AI flattens our hiring curve, and helps us innovate from idea to product faster.”First question, are CrowdStrike shareholders also given the privilege to “accelerate execution and efficiency”? How many total years does it take for a CrowdStrike investor to vote on all nine board members?3 years, classified board.This is important because clearly shareholders were not completely pleased this year: 34% said NO Pay Committee Chair Cary Davis while 38% said NO to Nomination Committee chair Laura Schumacher2% NO CEO KurtzConsidering the board influence of Founder/CEO/Director and third largest shareholder George Kurtz, investors would typically be best served with a board provides an effective counterbalance to his control. Of the board's eight independent directors, what percentage has served for at least a decade alongside Kurtz?Four directors, or half.Again, to counteract his control, investors should expect regular board refreshment. How many new directors have joined the board in the last 5 years?One, Johanna Flower, the only director who sits on zero board committees. She joined the board in January 2023Kurtz already owns $2.7B of Crowdstrike shares. What percentage of his annual pay consists of equity?90%, with a target equity award of $35M.Finally, CrowdStrike's infamous 2024 software update is commonly described as what?The largest outage in the history of information technology.In 2024, CrowdStrike released a software update that disrupted millions of Microsoft Windows systems around the worldA faulty update to its Falcon sensor platform led to the "Blue Screen of Death" on millions of machines, bringing critical operations to a standstill across numerous sectors.The immediate and most visible impact was the widespread and severe disruption to the global economy. The financial toll is estimated to be in the billions of dollars. Key sectors affected include:Aviation: Major airlines like Delta, United, and American Airlines grounded thousands of flights, disrupting travel for millions and costing airlines hundreds of millions of dollars.Healthcare: Access to electronic health records was hindered, leading to the cancellation of surgeries and appointments. This disruption posed a direct risk to patient care and safety.Financial Services: Banks and financial institutions faced outages that affected everything from ATM services to online banking and stock trading. This not only resulted in financial losses but also eroded consumer confidence.Government and Emergency Services: The outage impacted various government agencies and even emergency services in some areas, highlighting a significant threat to public safety and national security.For Mr. Kurtz, the amount for fiscal 2025 also includes approximately (i) $104,279 for costs related to personal security for Mr. Kurtz and his family at his residences and (ii) $898,426 for costs related to personal usage of private aircraft.As part of our sales and marketing activities, we sponsor a CrowdStrike-branded professional racing car, which Mr. Kurtz drives in some races at no incremental cost to us and in lieu of us hiring a professional driver. As we do not pay any amounts to Mr. Kurtz under these arrangements, it is not reflected in the above table.No vote on payTARGET CORPORATIONTarget foot traffic is still suffering 6 months post-boycott. An industry veteran says the retailer's problems are bigger than curtailing DEITarget Boycott Leader Jamal Bryant Is Arriving on CEOs' Radar ScreensInside Target, Frustrated Employees and Search for New CEOThis article from the WSJ says:Many Target shoppers are frustrated with the retailer. Many Target employees are too.In early June, a companywide survey showed that roughly half of Target's employees didn't think the company was making the changes necessary to compete effectively. About 40% of the roughly 260,000 staffers who replied said they didn't have confidence in the company's future. The scores—which declined from a year ago—were even lower for those staffers at Target's headquarters in Minneapolis.The worker sentiment data reflects the challenges ahead for the company as it prepares to navigate a leadership change and turn around 10 quarters of flat or falling sales in an increasingly complex consumer environment.Based on what I just told you, TRUE or FALSE on this next headline from Fortune? Is this real or am I making it up? Target's CEO succession tilts toward an insider and company liferTrue. The leading contender appears to be: Michael Fiddelke is executive vice president and chief operating officer for Target and a member of its leadership team.Since joining Target in 2003 as an intern, Michael has held a variety of leadership positions across the organization, including finance, merchandising, human resources and operations. He most recently served as Target's chief financial officer. In addition to his Target responsibilities, Michael serves on the board of Shipt, Target's wholly-owned subsidiary.Compensation & Human Capital Management Committee: “Management development and succession planning.

Story of the Week (DR):Trump Demands Intel CEO's Resignation, Says He's ‘Highly CONFLICTED' AND Eric and Donald Trump Jr. to Own Millions of Shares in New U.S. Manufacturing SPAC MMESG Analyst Tom Cotton: Trump's attack, posted on Truth Social Thursday, came two days after GOP Sen. Tom Cotton flagged Tan's prior investments in Chinese companies and his previous leadership at Cadence Design Systems, which recently pleaded guilty to unlawfully selling its tech to a blacklisted military university in China.Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan (~$70M golden hello in March; max potential $400M) directly addressed employees on Thursday after Donald Trump demanded his resignation over national security concerns, saying he has the full support of the board.Tan set up a venture firm called Walden International based in San Francisco that pumped more than $5 billion into over 600 companies. More than 100 of those investments were made in China, including deals with once-obscure startups such as Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp.—today China's largest chipmaker—where he served on the board for a decade and a half.Today, the executive is still chairman of Walden International. And he's the founding managing partner at Walden Catalyst Ventures, which focuses on investments in the U.S., Europe and Israel. He also serves in that role at another venture fund, Celesta Global Capital.Tan stepped out of the venture world and joined the chip industry full-time when he became interim head of San Jose, California-based Cadence Design Systems Inc. in 2008. The executive, who had previously served on the board, went on to take the permanent CEO job the next year. He stayed in the role until 2021, when he transitioned to executive chairman, and is widely credited with restoring the company's fortunes. In late July of this year, the Department of Justice announced a plea deal that cost Cadence more than $100 million in fines. Employees at Cadence's China unit allegedly hid the name of a customer—the National University of Defense Technology—from internal compliance in order to keep supplying it. That organization had been put on the Department of Commerce's blacklist in 2015. The Chinese university was one of a group of supercomputer operators there that had conducted simulations of nuclear explosions, the DOJ said.Shares of American Eagle surge 20% after Trump calls Sydney Sweeney campaign 'hottest ad out there' AND Epstein victims are a growing political threat to TrumpThe Fall 2025 campaign, titled "Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans," centers on a deliberate pun between "jeans" and "genes.""Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color...

On the pod this week, host Austin Karp breaks down a number of deals struck between the NFL and ESPN. And with the season fast approaching, Karp is joined by NBC's Devin McCourty, CBS' Jason McCourty and Fox's Greg Olsen to look at what's in store for 2025. 1:13 ESPN-NFL DEAL5:18 THE McCOURTY BROTHERS INTERVIEW25:40 GREG OLSEN INTERVIEW29:58 QUICK HITTERS

In this segment, Joe is joined by Austin Karp, the Managing Editor of Newsletters for the Sports Business Journal. He breaks down the massive deal between the NFL and ESPN.

John is joined by Brad Karp, Chairman of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP.  Brad explains how he led Paul Weiss to diversify its business beginning in the financial crisis of 2008, when its core business of litigation was still highly profitable, to become a global leader in private equity transactions, mergers and acquisitions and financial restructuring as well.  He describes how he approached leading lawyers in these fields and convinced them to join the firm by emphasizing the firm's profitability, reputation, culture, and client base and how each individual would fit into the firm's existing business.  Brad also explains the firm's dramatic expansion in London in the summer of 2023 and why he does not foresee further significant international expansion in the future.  John and Brad then discuss the recent trends in large law firms towards recruiting highly paid superstar lawyers and the growth of salaried or nonequity partners.  They also discuss the major trends they expect to see in the future, including the increasing use of AI within the legal industry, the dramatic rise of litigation and regulatory investigations over the use of AI and the influence of climate change on every area of law practice.  Finally, Brad describes his firm's longtime commitment to actively taking on social justice and pro bono representations and the challenges of handling these engagements in today's increasingly politicized environment.Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

In this week's episode of the Artist Academy Podcast, I'm kicking off a brand-new interview series—this time shifting the spotlight away from murals and onto artists who are creating and selling canvas work, just in time for the upcoming holiday season.I sat down with Caroline Karp, a professional artist, teacher, and creative entrepreneur who's built a vibrant career by painting what inspires her—often from beaches, cities, and mountaintops around the world. Caroline shares how she balances teaching kindergarten with selling canvases, many of which are painted on location and shipped rolled to collectors.We chat about pricing high-ticket art, building authentic connections outside of social media, and the power of simply showing up and painting what lights you up. If you're looking to boost your canvas sales or kickstart a new series for the holidays, this episode will give you the motivation to dive in and start creating.

Josh Sigurdson reports on the rapid development of robots set to live in your house, take your jobs and force you into a technocratic world order with UBI and 15 Minute Cities. 1X in Palo Alto launched an ad showing walking, talking robots in the work place recently and Elon Musk's Optimus robot is being placed in homes throughout the world with the ability to do laundry, dishes, dance and of course surveil. It's promoted as a cheap and revolutionary technological development, yet most of us know the real truth behind this role out. Elon Musk who recently created The America Party claims AI will take ALL jobs and destroy humanity. He's also the main person developing it while calling for people to put chips in their brains attached to Pentagon funded mesh networks as he replaces his own workers with AI. He just sold X to XAI for 33 billion dollars, a symbolic number and now X is partnering with Visa to launch XMoney which will be a digital payment system attached to his social credit digital ID network called X. Meanwhile, frenemy President Donald Trump recently tapped Palantir to create a database on all Americans, put 500 billion dollars into AI, met with the Saudis alongside Musk, Karp of Palantir, Sam Altman of Open AI among many others to create a global AI alliance for weapons and employment. He also included massive AI provisions in his so-called "Big Beautiful Bill" and stripped states of the right to individually regulate AI, passing it to the federal government. All of this is happening as emergency orders for countless conflicts are launched across the board. Scientists are also creating synthetic human DNA from scratch right now.

Now we know why the Trump administration was declared the “peace presidency,” because those optics were necessary to escalate global conflict to emergency levels as part of a larger agenda that involved regime change in Iran. From the July, 2024, assassination optics, to the head of Palantir saying the next month in August that the US will fight a 3-front war against Russia, China, and Iran, to the second assassination attempt in September of that year, to the $100-million Mariam Adelson gave Trump beginning in July, it was all part of a build up that culminated in OpenAI winning a $200 million defense contract and Palantir obtaining a $1.3 billion contract from the Pentagon just weeks before the Israeli attack. Now we have learned that despite what American spies said, or US Agencies, or the Director of National Intelligence, or what even the misquoted IAEA said - “no credible indications of ongoing, undeclared structured nuclear programme” in Iran - that Palantir's MOSAIC counterinsurgency-AI was responsible for the Israeli attack, and now the American attack on June 21, 2025. This technology was also employed in Ukraine and Gaza, and is set to be used in the United States. Pretty convenient what Karp had predicted back in August, 2024. It's also pretty convenient that a largely Jewish company had the evidence to justify initial and future attacks that produce, if there wasn't before, a threat and an enemy.Palantir, OpenAI and Meta have also had executives appointed to the US military by the Trump administration in recent days.What's even more telling is that the attack on Iran by US forces occurred the summer solstice, a three day festival historically, and on a waning moon, the phase of Hecate, the goddess of witchcraft and the underworld, to help protect the B-2 bombers. This plays well with the Israel attack on Friday 13 at 3:30am, the witching hour, and the Jewish holidays that corespondent to the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and Libya. The initial Israel attack also occurred with Mars, god of war, in Leo, the lion, corresponding with both astrology and the biblical lion as the operation was called Rising Lion. The Summer solstice also aligns with the story of Samson and his solar hair, itself used as the name of Israel's not-so-secret nuclear weapons plan to destroy the world before the government falls. October 7, 2001, was the Jewish holiday of Sukkot, and the day the Bush administration initiated operations in Afghanistan; March 20, 2003 was the Jewish holiday of Purim, and the day Operation Iraqi Freedom began with preemptive airstrikes on a country that did not posses WMDs; October 20, 2011 was the Jewish holiday of Shemini Atzeret, and day Libya was officially overthrown with the death of Muammar Gaddafi; September 22, 2014, was the first day of Rosh Hashanah, and also the day the U.S. officially intervened in Syria against ISIS under Operation Inherent Resolve; October 7, 2023, the date when Israel allowed Hamas to attack them giving rise to the current onslaught, was also a celebration of Shemini Atzeret and a transition of Saturn “returns” through Pisces.Few stop to question the rhetoric of “Iran cannot be allowed to have a nuclear bomb,” or “but they chant death to America.” Israel can have secret bombs with no international inspections, though, and the only reasoning given why Iran can't is they would destroy Tel Aviv and maybe an American city because they hate Americans. But you do not need such a bomb to do that, as hypersonic missile have demonstrated in Tel Aviv. And, of course, just like the burning of Bush effigies in Iraq what is the reasoning for this blind hatred. Depending on the context, it varies, but the most recent case of this occurred when the Iranian parliament burned an American flag in protest of the US being pulled out of the “Iran deal” for it being too lenient, i.e., no regime change as far as Israel was concerned. And now we are at war again, based off of WMDs 2.0, i.e., AI algorithms predicting nuclear bombs like we have been sold since 1984 at least when the program was “entering its final stages.” In iconic Orwell fashion, too, Trump referred to entering the war that Israel started as “THE TIME FOR PEACE” - WAR IS PEACE. Virtually his entire base, and even political opponents, are finding justifications for the war as to not lose face, too, another version of IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH. An administration of peace cannot threaten countries that want peace, countries that want to try war criminals, and refuse to agree to any kind of peace plan. And we also know that Benjamin Netanyahu was and remains under investigation in his own country for criminal charges ranging from obtaining and leaking top secret documents, protocol tampering, and blackmail, all things shelved on October 7, 2023. Now a few days before the attack on Iran, cross-examination of Netanyahu was about tog begin.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Gosh, I miss the old days of CEO greed, when the pay gap between Boss Hog and everyday employees was merely gross.Today, the guiding ethic for top executive enrichment is to have no ethics. Grab as much as you can as fast as you can, everyone else be damned. And never mind that as chief, you did absolutely nothing to “earn” that exorbitant stash of cash.How exorbitant? Corporations try to hide the actual numbers, but under an insider accounting measure called “compensation actually paid” reveals the obscene truth. Last year, America's 10 highest paid CEOs averaged more than a billion dollars each in pay. One person, one year, one billion.And the Number One highest-paid corporate honcho last year, Alex Karp, made off with nearly $7 billion! That's $560 million a month in personal pay. With the exceptions of Jesus and Dolly Parton, no one is worth anywhere near that!And what does Alex do? He's the CEO of Palantir, a high-tech outfit now working for Donald Trump to collect and computerize all of your and my personal data, creating government dossiers so federal agents can monitor us. Sleazy, but in today's Corporate America, that's a path to untold riches.Still, for the insanely rich, too much is not enough. So, they, their lobbyists, and Republican congress critters are now furiously pushing for what Trump calls a “Big Beautiful Bill.” It would cut Medicaid, food stamps, and other basic human needs for America's lowest-paid working families. Why? To give a billion-dollars more in annual tax cuts to hucksters like Karp… and Trump himself. This is worse than kleptocracy – it's sleazocracry.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

Gabe Karp is a bestselling author, keynote speaker, and conflict management expert known for his book Don't Get Mad at Penguins: And Other Ways to Detox the Conflict in Your Life and Business. He began his career as a trial lawyer, later becoming Executive Vice President and General Counsel at ePrize (now Merkle), where he helped grow the company into a global leader in digital promotions. Currently, Gabe serves as an Operating Partner at Detroit Venture Partners and a Venture Partner at Lightbank, advising early-stage tech companies and serving on multiple boards. His work focuses on transforming conflict from a liability into a strategic asset, drawing from over 30 years of experience in law, business, and venture capital. In this episode… Navigating conflict is one of the biggest challenges in both personal and professional relationships. Whether dealing with strong personalities, avoiding uncomfortable conversations, or managing unspoken resentment, unresolved conflict can slow progress, damage culture, and erode trust. So, how can leaders turn conflict into a tool for growth instead of a source of frustration? Gabe Karp, conflict management expert and author of Don't Get Mad at Penguins, shares a framework for transforming toxic conflict into a productive force. Drawing on his experiences as a former trial lawyer, executive, and venture capitalist, he explains how leaders can shift team dynamics by normalizing direct communication, embracing discomfort, and identifying common conflict traps such as ego, the need to win, and misaligned expectations. Gabe introduces strategies like the debrief/pre-brief meeting format, ego-neutral negotiation, and fostering cultures of candor and accountability, all of which help teams surface issues before they escalate. In this episode of the Inspired Insider Podcast, Dr. Jeremy Weisz interviews Gabe Karp, Operating Partner at Detroit Venture Partners, about building healthier team dynamics through conflict. Gabe discusses how to dismantle ego-driven tension, the power of cultural feedback loops, and why expectations shape most of our frustrations. He also explores lessons from litigation, handling difficult terminations, and creating space for honest team dialogue.

Josh Sigurdson reports on the real reason President Donald Trump went to the Middle East and made major deals with Syria, Qatar and the Saudis. Only days after absurd stories came out claiming Donald Trump was splitting with Netanyahu and Israel, Trump signed a 1.2 trillion dollars economic pact with Qatar, one of the main countries arming Iran which Trump just spent 1 trillion dollars funding military efforts against (the largest military budget in US history). Trump also signed a $600 billion investment pact with Saudi Arabia which is in the middle of leaving the US dollar for BRICS+. Trump also signed a pact with Syria's Al Qaeda leader al-Jolani, a puppet of Israel. He is now lifting sanctions on Syria. Alongside the world leaders in the Middle East, the main investment deals made were in artificial intelligence (AI) and digital technology. As we have been saying for years, this is about a technocratic shift from the west to the east. Trump is meeting with those creating the new global governance system. BlackRock's Larry Fink, OpenAI's Sam Altman, Elon Musk, Karp of Palantir. This couldn't be more blatant. The deal that was made would involve the shift into a total technocracy worldwide with digital IDs, CBDCs, AI militarism and the end to human independence as has been laid out by The World Economic Forum. As western civilization inevitably falls, they need to make it appear as though there was a fight. In reality, that which appears as being part of a fight is actually the very replacement system meant for the inevitable collapse. This is why Elon Musk just sold X to X-AI for $33 billion and is establishing a social credit based digital ID system. This is why the trade war is happening, allowing the manufacturing shift and the need for food and grid rations. But let's all just keep sitting on our hands and thinking massive military spending and AI takeover of jobs is "winning." Get prepared today. Stay tuned for more from WAM!

Why I won't be buying Palantir technologies anytime soon When I'm out in public many times people ask me what my opinions are when it comes to investing, the markets or individual stocks. I have to say the one stock that people seem to be asking the most about recently is Palantir Technologies, their ticker symbol is PLTR. I believe I'm asked about this company because investors look at the hype of the past performance and the fact that this stock is up over 1,000% since going public in 2020. That creates excitement for investors, but is it worth buying now? The company currently trades around 60 times next year's estimated sales, and again that is sales not earnings! That makes it the most expensive stock in the S&P 500. There are signs that growth outside of the US is slowing and I don't like that they have three unnamed companies that accounted for 17% of the total revenue last year. Usually hype like this goes the same path, which ultimately results in large losses for buyers at this point in the cycle. A more recent example comes from the company Snowflake. In 2021, Snowflake hit an all-time high over $400 per share. Today that stock is down nearly 60% and trades around $167 per share. You don't hear much about it now, but I remember back in 2021 many people were asking about this company as well. I'm also not thrilled with Palantir's CEO, Alex Karp, who during an interview just a few months ago had some pretty nasty comments about analysts who don't agree with him on the stock price. He said “I love the idea of getting a drone and having light fentanyl laced urine spraying on analysts who've tried to screw us.” Maybe I'm old school, but I don't think that is anyway for the CEO of a company of any size to talk about anyone that does not agree with the CEO's position. Especially considering many times they aren't knocking the business, just the fact that this company's valuation is extremely crazy! I will also try my best to refrain from making any comments on Mr. Karp's hairstyle, but it just seems a little bit outlandish for a CEO to have that type of hairstyle. As far as the stock goes, maybe the craziness will continue and perhaps it does go higher, but if people ask me if they should buy, sell, or hold the stock, I would definitely say sell! I guess I now have to be careful of drones flying above my head that could be spraying fentanyl laced urine on me.   Good news, only 26% of big money managers are bullish A recent poll from Barron‘s magazine, which they conduct twice a year, found that only 26% of big money managers were bullish and thought stocks would go up while 74% were either neutral or bearish on stocks. They said 32% of respondents were bearish and that was the highest percent since 1997 while the 26% that were bullish marked the lowest reading since 1997. I think Barron's Magazine is a good source of information, but I was disappointed that they did not list the years of experience of the managers that were being polled. The reason for my concern is that the last big negative in the economy and the market was in 2008, which was 17 years ago. A current manager that graduated school at age 23 would now be 40 years old and they did not experience managing money through 2008. Living through and managing money through a challenge like that provided me with extremely valuable lessons that younger managers would not understand. But why is this negative report a good sign in my opinion? Their current asset allocation is only 64% in equities with 36% in other investments like fixed income and cash. They will not stay bearish forever and if they change direction in the next 6 to 12 months, they will start buying equities again, which will push up prices. If you're looking for value, the least attractive sectors were energy, real estate, and utilities. I have talked about my concerns around the Magnificent Seven and now only 10% of these managers think the Mag Seven will lead the market over the next six months. Even looking out 12 months only climbed 32% thought the group would lead the market. When asked about the strength of the US dollar going forward 12 months, 68% of the money managers said it will be weaker, which I agree with. Only 15% of the managers think it will be stronger a year from now. These surveys also provide an interesting insight into what other money managers are thinking.   Apple's stock continues to amaze me There seems to be so much negative news that continues to come out against Apple, but the stock continues to remain relatively steady given the amount of negativity. We all know about the tariffs and the delayed AI rollout, but I was definitely concerned by a couple announcements that would have large impacts on Apple's service revenue. This segment has been a bright spot for Apple, but in the most recent quarter it missed expectations and grew at just 11.6% compared to last year. The big concern I have is around Alphabet's estimated payment of around $20 billion annually to be the default search engine. There is concern if this will hold up given the ruling that Alphabet holds a monopoly and the need for remedies, but also this week Apple executive, Eddy Cue, added additional concerns. He stated the searches in Apple's Safari browser fell for the first time in April, something that has never happened in 20 years. He then added that the iPhone maker is looking at adding AI search options to the Safari browser. If they did this, would Alphabet really want to keep paying $20 billion a year for that right? I don't think so! The other major concern that seemed to get little attention was the fact that in a recent ruling a judge ordered Apple to immediately stop imposing commissions on purchases made for iPhone apps through web links inside its apps. This has enabled developers like Amazon and Spotify to update their apps to avoid Apple's commissions and direct customers to their own website for payments. This commission rate was around 27% for Apple and it could cost Apple billions of dollars annually. All this comes with the fact that Apple still trades around 25x 2026 earnings even though revenue is only estimated to grow low to mid-single digits. In my opinion, Apple really needs some good/exciting news to get this stock moving higher and at this time I don't see where that is going to come from.   Financial Planning: Breaking Down Retirement Income Taxation Retirement income varies widely in tax treatment, with some sources being far less tax-friendly than others. In order from worst to best, pension payments and traditional IRA withdrawals are among the least favorable—they're fully taxable as ordinary income at both the federal and state levels. Interest income from bonds, CDs, and savings accounts, as well as annuity earnings from non-retirement accounts, are also taxed as ordinary income at both levels and can trigger the additional 3.8% Net Investment Income Tax (NIIT) if income thresholds are exceeded. Rental income is similarly taxed but allows deductions and depreciation to offset some of the tax burden. Long-term capital gains and qualified dividends receive preferential federal tax rates—as low as 0%—but are still taxed as ordinary income in California and many other states. Social Security is partially taxed at the federal level—between 0% and 85% is included as taxable income depending on total income—but is not taxed in most states, including California, making it relatively tax-favorable. Roth IRA withdrawals are the most tax-friendly, being completely tax-free at both the federal and state levels if qualified. Understanding how each income type is taxed can help guide investment decisions during working years and inform how to structure withdrawals in retirement for optimal tax efficiency.   Companies Discussed: The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company (SMG), Block, Inc. (XYZ), Amazon, Inc. (AMZN) & McDonald's Corporation (MCD)

Alex Karp is many things: a cross-country skier, a long-range shooter, a tai chi expert who might be the only man who knows how to wield a sword but doesn't know how to drive. He's also a collector of extremely prestigious degrees. His PhD thesis was called “Aggression in the Life-World: The Extension of Parsons' Concept of Aggression by Describing the Connection Between Jargon, Aggression, and Culture.”  Since 2003, he has also been the CEO of Palantir, a software and data analytics company that does defense and intelligence work. Simply put, it's a company that stops terror attacks—while also helping make sports cars go faster and pharmaceutical companies build better drugs. Bari sat down with Alex Karp at UATX to discuss his new book, The Technological Republic, which offers a vision of how Silicon Valley lost its way and how the future of America and the West hinges on it finding its way back—fast. It just debuted on The New York Times Best Seller list.
