Major US equity indices were higher this week following last week's lower performance. The Market was encouraged by reports that the US and Iran are nearing a memorandum of understanding that could include a 60-day ceasefire extension, Hormuz reopening, Iranian commitments not to pursue nuclear weapons, and a framework for broader nuclear talks. Lots of investor attention was also on SpaceX's massive $75B IPO.

Major US equity indices were down this week. The big story this week was the dip in semis/memory and select AI names, accompanied by a rotation into defensives, financials, and healthcare. There was no real movement on the US-Iran conflict despite last week's hopes that a memorandum of understanding was close that could lead to a 60-day ceasefire and further negotiation on sticking points.

Major US equity indices were higher this week following last week's mixed performance. The S&P logged its eighth straight weekly gain.

Major US equity indexes were lower in Monday trading, though stocks ended well off worst levels. The US-Iran war narrative continues to offer a lot of headline volatility, with little progress toward a resolution. In macro news, the May NAHB housing market index beat, rebounding after falling to its lowest level since last September in April.

Major US equity indices were higher this week with the S&P500 and Nasdaq both recording their fifth straight weekly gains, ending at fresh closing highs. This week reinforced a resilient macro and earnings backdrop, as Q1 S&P 500 results were notably strong, with growth accelerating to ~27% and beat rates well above historical averages. The Fed FOMC meeting ended with rates unchanged but was marked by rare internal division, with four dissents reflecting disagreement over easing bias.

The US Federal Reserve remains on hold but is the most divided since 1992. Kevin Warsh advanced in a key Senate vote to become the new chairman of the Fed next month. The ascent of the oil price continues amid reports of another military escalation. Major US technology firms reaffirmed heavy AI investment in their earnings releases, but results differed sharply across the companies reporting yesterday: Alphabet, Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft. Norbert Rücker, Head of Economics and Next Generation, talks about the UAE's decision to leave OPEC amid tectonic shifts in the oil market and our outlook for oil as storage is declining.

Major US equity indices were mostly higher this week. US-Iran headlines were noisy, but overall conformed to the market's base case of a continued ceasefire and likely bumpy progress toward some type of agreement. It was a fairly light week of economic updates, with March retail sales the big report.

Major US equity indices were higher for a second consecutive week after a ceasefire between the US and Iran provided further de-escalation momentum. March FOMC minutes leaned hawkish, as expected. March core CPI was slightly cooler than expected, while headline was in line, with energy up 10.9% and gasoline up 21.2%.

Major US equity indices were higher for the holiday-shortened week, helped by some hopes for a winding down of the Iran war. The Dow, S&P, and Nasdaq were higher after five consecutive weeks down. The small-cap Russell 2000 notched its second consecutive weekly gain.

In this week's episode of High on Home Grown, we're covering a mix of serious reform talk, strange police encounters, and some genuinely wild crime stories: Macky opens with a strong letter arguing why it's time to legalise cannabis in the UK, laying out the case for reform and why the current system continues to fail everyone involved. He then shares a bizarre BBC News story from Penzance, where a cannabis driver reportedly asked police officers for directions, one of those moments where reality feels like some people just dont think..... There's also a quick but worrying one, as gangs are now using drones to locate and steal cannabis farms, highlighting just how far organised crime is willing to go, and how growers are having to think defensively. Dr. Margaret covers an international smuggling case, with two men facing charges for allegedly recruiting women to traffic cannabis out of Canada. A grim reminder of how exploitation still plays a role in prohibition-driven markets. And John wraps things up with political progress in the US, as a Massachusetts bill to double the marijuana possession limit and revise the regulatory framework heads to a conference committee. A move that could bring meaningful change if it clears the final hurdles. Another packed episode full of reform debates, strange decisions, and stories that sound made up but very much aren't.

Major US equity indices were mixed this week. Major AI infrastructure names saw additional scrutiny after reports of stalled negotiations for a $10B Michigan datacenter with Blue Owl Capital, Oracle's largest datacenter partner (though Oracle says the project remains on track). However, other AI headlines from the week were more upbeat, including a very well-received earnings report from Micron.

Major US equity indices logged mixed performance this week, with a recent momentum unwind seeing some stabilization on Friday. AI names, retail-investor favorites, most-shorted names, crypto-linked companies, and quantum computing came under some pressure. Among the big stories in the ongoing AI-scrutiny thread were Softbank's sale of its Nvidia stake, a continuing selloff in Oracle with focus on its debt-fueled AI buildout plans, and Coreweave weakness after lowering guidance on delays from a third-party developer.

Major US equity indices were down this week, with the Dow, S&P, and Nasdaq declining after three straight weekly gains. AI scrutiny remained a key focus, with attention on all the major narrative elements including cash burn, leverage, circularity, and ROI. There was attention on OpenAI agreeing to a $38B deal with Amazon, pushing the company's recent commitments near $1.5T.

AP correspondent Marcela Sanchez reports on which airports will be affected due to the government shutdown.

On today's podcast:1) Zohran Mamdani’s lead heading into the New York City mayoral election has withstood a furious push from Republicans, establishment Democrats and a coalition of Wall Street dealmakers. Aspects of Mamdani’s campaign that some thought would doom his candidacy — his vociferous criticism of Israel’s actions in Gaza, his past calls to defund the police and his refusal to flee from the political label of socialist — haven’t turned off a plurality of New York voters, despite a torrent of campaign spending from some of the city’s wealthiest residents. Instead, the 34-year-old assemblyman’s campaign — with its focus on core economic concerns combined with an online charm offensive and occasional searing barb at his critics — is working well enough that some political observers see a model for future Democratic candidates and races. Nationally, Tuesday’s results could provide a muddled message for Democrats. 2) Governors’ races in Virginia and New Jersey and California’s redistricting ballot measure are among the elections on ballots Tuesday, providing a barometer of voter sentiment ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. While Mamdani’s progressive campaign has given him a lead in New York, the candidates leading the polls in governor’s races in New Jersey and Virginia — Representative Mikie Sherrill and former Representative Abigail Spanberger, respectively — come from the more centrist range of the Democratic spectrum. The race in New Jersey has tightened in the past few weeks between Democratic Representative Mikie Sherrill and Republican Jack Ciattarelli, as voters express dismay over high electricity bills and general affordability issues under the state’s current Democratic governor. Republicans would love to eke out a victory there — even as polls narrowly favor Sherrill — after President Donald Trump endorsed Ciattarelli and called him “100% (PLUS!)” on the MAGA agenda.In Virginia, Democratic Representative Abigail Spanberger looks likely to prevail over the Republican Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earle-Sears. The huge number of federal workers in Northern Virginia, frustrated by the government shutdown and the DOGE cuts, gave Spanberger a built-in constituency. And she’s made sure to talk about issues key to local voters — inflation, schools, health care — rather than solely going with an anti-Trump message. If Democrats lose one of these races, expect even more hand-wringing over the party’s tarnished national brand and its inability to capitalize on Trump’s unpopularity.3) As the government shutdown enters its 34th day, lawmakers face mounting pressure to reach a resolution. Major US airports are facing staffing shortages leading to ground delays, the distribution of food assistance is up in the air, and more federal workers are missing paychecks as the shutdown is on track to become the longest in history. Senators are increasingly optimistic about finding a path to reopen the government, but any resolution will likely have to wait until after tomorrow’s off-year elections, which could sway either side to move depending on the results.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Australia holds some of the world's largest deposits of critical minerals, resources that are mined locally but largely exported to China for processing. China currently controls about 90 per cent of global supply chains in this sector. However, a new US-Australia critical minerals and rare earths deal worth AU$13.5 billion (US$8.5 bln) aims to challenge China's dominance in the production of rare earths. In this podcast, we speak with Mohan Yellishetty, an expert from Monash University's Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, who welcomes the move but says that China's stronghold on critical minerals may take a few years to weaken.

Major US indices posted solid gains this week, rebounding from last Friday's session that saw the worst S&P daily performance since April amid flaring US-China trade tensions. Signs of US-China de-escalation boosted markets Monday, and by Friday Trump said his proposal for 100% tariffs on China was not sustainable. A large volume of Fedspeak had little impact on market expectations for two 25 bp cuts through year-end.

This Day in Legal History: Al Capone ConvictedOn October 17, 1931, notorious gangster Al Capone was convicted of tax evasion in federal court, marking a pivotal moment in American legal history. Capone, who had risen to national infamy during Prohibition as the head of a sprawling Chicago crime syndicate, had long evaded prosecution for his violent and illegal enterprises. Despite widespread public knowledge of his role in bootlegging, extortion, and murder, prosecutors struggled to tie him directly to any of those crimes. Instead, federal investigators, led by Treasury Department agent Frank J. Wilson, focused on Capone's lavish lifestyle and failure to file income tax returns.The government's case rested on a novel legal theory at the time: that even illegally obtained income was subject to federal taxation. This approach was upheld by the Supreme Court in prior decisions and proved decisive in Capone's prosecution. During trial, prosecutors introduced evidence of Capone's expenditures and testimony from witnesses who detailed his earnings, none of which had been declared to the IRS. The jury found him guilty on five counts of tax evasion.Capone was sentenced to 11 years in federal prison, fined $50,000, and charged nearly $30,000 in court costs and back taxes. He was denied bail and began serving time in the U.S. Penitentiary in Atlanta before being transferred to Alcatraz in 1934. His conviction not only marked the downfall of one of America's most feared mob bosses but also cemented the IRS's role in fighting organized crime. The case showcased the growing power of the federal government in regulating and prosecuting financial crimes.Former National Security Adviser John Bolton was indicted on charges of sharing classified government information, including top-secret material, with two relatives identified by sources as his wife and daughter. The indictment alleges Bolton transmitted over a thousand pages of sensitive information—gleaned from high-level meetings and intelligence briefings—between 2018 and 2025, with discussions indicating the material might be used in a book project. He referred to his relatives as his “editors” and communicated with a publisher about potential rights. Bolton has denied wrongdoing, stating he looks forward to defending himself and accusing Trump of abuse of power. His attorney maintains no classified information was unlawfully shared or stored.The case is part of a broader trend under the Trump administration, which has pursued indictments against multiple critics, including James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James. Trump has actively pushed for such prosecutions, and concerns have been raised about the politicization of the Justice Department. Still, officials note Bolton's case began in 2022 and involves more substantial evidence. Bolton's personal email was reportedly hacked by an actor tied to the Iranian government, which further complicated the case, though he allegedly failed to report the storage of classified material. If convicted, Bolton faces up to 10 years per count under the Espionage Act.John Bolton, former Trump adviser, charged with sharing classified information | ReutersThe U.S. Chamber of Commerce filed a federal lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump's imposition of a $100,000 fee on new H-1B visa applications. The lawsuit, brought in Washington, D.C., argues that the fee—announced by Trump in a September proclamation—exceeds the president's legal authority and threatens to destabilize the visa system established by Congress. This marks the Chamber's first legal action against the Trump administration since his second term began in January.The H-1B program allows U.S. employers to hire skilled foreign workers, particularly in fields like technology and engineering. Companies typically pay between $2,000 and $5,000 per H-1B petition, with most applications costing under $3,600. The newly announced fee would significantly raise costs for employers, potentially forcing them to reduce their reliance on foreign talent or abandon the program altogether.Trump justified the fee by citing national and economic security concerns, claiming the H-1B program facilitates the replacement of American workers. The Chamber disputes that, arguing the fee is not an immigration restriction because employers—not foreign nationals—pay it. The policy is also facing another legal challenge in California from unions, religious groups, and employers. Business leaders warn that the fee will exacerbate labor shortages and harm U.S. competitiveness.Major US business group sues over Trump's $100,000 H-1B visa fee | ReutersNew Jersey filed a lawsuit against gun manufacturer Sig Sauer, seeking to halt sales of its P320 handgun within the state over allegations that the weapon can fire without the trigger being pulled. Filed in Sussex County state court, the lawsuit claims the company marketed the pistol as safe while knowing of a design flaw that allows for unintentional discharges. The complaint cites several such incidents, including the fatal shooting of a detective lieutenant in April 2023 as he was preparing to clean his P320.The state is seeking a mandatory recall of all P320s sold in New Jersey and a court order to ban further sales of the model. The lawsuit invokes product liability, consumer fraud, and public nuisance laws, marking the first time a government entity has sued over this issue, according to Attorney General Matthew Platkin. At a press conference, Platkin accused Sig Sauer of promoting the handgun's safety while omitting information about its known risks.Sig Sauer has denied the P320 can fire on its own, blaming incidents on user error. Still, the company has faced numerous lawsuits from civilians and law enforcement officers nationwide and has paid out millions in damages. New Jersey's suit claims the P320's design allows it to be fully cocked with a chambered round and that minor movement can activate the internal striker, causing it to discharge unexpectedly—especially dangerous for law enforcement officers who carry the firearm holstered and ready.New Jersey sues Sig Sauer, alleging handguns fire on their own | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Frédéric Chopin.Frédéric Chopin, the Polish composer and virtuoso pianist, died on October 17, 1849, at the age of 39 in Paris. Though his life was brief, his influence on Romantic music—and piano literature in particular—has been profound and enduring. Chopin composed almost exclusively for solo piano, blending technical innovation with a deeply expressive, often introspective voice. Among his most beloved works is the Nocturne in E-flat major, Op. 9, No. 2, composed when he was just 20.This piece exemplifies Chopin's signature style: lyrical, ornamented melodies floating over a gently rocking accompaniment. It unfolds in a graceful ternary form, inviting both performer and listener into a world of delicate melancholy and understated virtuosity. The Nocturne's opening theme returns with increasingly elaborate embellishment, showcasing Chopin's genius for subtle variation and emotional nuance. Though brief, the piece captures a vast interior world—what Robert Schumann once described as “cannons buried in flowers.”Chopin's nocturnes elevated the genre from salon entertainment to high art, and the Nocturne in E-flat major remains a favorite among pianists and audiences alike. Its enduring popularity testifies to Chopin's ability to transform a simple melody into something timeless. That he died on this day in 1849 makes this day an especially fitting moment to revisit his music, which continues to resonate with quiet power over 175 years later.Without further ado, Frédéric Chopin's Nocturne in E-flat major, Op. 9, No. 2 – enjoy!

Major US equity indices finished lower this week, but came off worst levels in broadly higher Friday trading. Investors slightly dialed back expectations for two more 25 bp Fed rate cuts this year, with some economic data generally arguing against the economic slowdown thesis. After a relatively quiet period, trade-headline volatility burst back in at week's end, with Trump announcing via social media a set of sectoral tariffs on imports of patented drugs, heavy trucks, and select furniture products.

Federal Chair Jerome Powell takes centre stage at Jackson Hole in the US to deliver his final speech. It comes at a time when tensions are high between him and President Trump. We look ahead to this important speech.Details emerge of a tentative deal between the European Union and the US .Some sectors will see smaller-than-expected tariff hikes. We hear from a representative of the German automotive industryAnd Ecuador is home to the Galápagos Islands, towering volcanoes, and the Amazon rainforest. But how did one of South America's most peaceful countries become one of the most violent? We take a look at how this surge in crime has affected the tourism sector.

1) President Trump's tariffs take effect at their highest levels since World War 2. President Trump’s actions will push the average US tariff rate to 15.2%, according to Bloomberg Economics estimates, with some countries facing duties as high as 50%. The president has pledged that the tariffs will slash trade deficits and push companies to move manufacturing back to the US, but his critics say they could cause inflation to spiral out of control and cause shortages on store shelves.2) The Kremlin said Presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump will meet for summit talks within the next few days. President Trump said there was a "very good chance" he would meet with Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy soon in another bid to broker peace between the two countries.3) The president slaps significant levies on semiconductors — with a key exemption. President Trump declared plans to slap a 100% tariff on semiconductor imports, but promised to exempt companies that move production back to the US. Companies that demonstrate a commitment to building in the US, such as Apple, will be exempt from tariffs on chips, according to Trump.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Interview with Colin Healey, CEO, Premier American UraniumOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/premier-american-uranium-tsxvpur-on-uraniums-future-in-powering-the-clean-energy-transition-6793Recording date: 17th June, 2025Premier American Uranium has announced a transformative acquisition of Nuclear Fuels, expected to close in mid-to-late August 2025, that more than doubles the company's Wyoming exploration footprint and positions it as a major pure-play uranium exploration company focused on US assets. The strategic combination creates 20-42 million pounds of combined exploration targets, representing a 150-250% increase in the company's resource potential.The acquisition brings together complementary assets with significant operational synergies. Nuclear Fuels' flagship Kaycee property contains 12-30 million pounds of exploration targets, while Premier's Great Divide Basin Cyclone project holds 8-12 million pounds. Both properties benefit from strategic positioning near existing processing facilities, including proximity to Ur-Energy's Lost Creek project and Energy Fuels' Nichols Ranch, enabling potential toll processing agreements once critical mass of 7-10 million pounds is achieved.A unique aspect of the transaction is the existing enCore Energy buyback option on the Kaycee project. Once Premier delivers a 15 million pound measured and indicated resource, enCore can acquire 51% of the resource for 2.5 times exploration costs, providing attractive downside protection. CEO Colin Healey noted that with an estimated $20 million exploration cost, the reimbursement would be "$50 million for 51% of 15 million pounds - an extremely attractive takeout valuation."The combined entity will exceed $100 million market capitalization, qualifying for major US exchange listing and URA ETF inclusion, significantly enhancing market access and liquidity. With Nuclear Fuels already conducting 100,000 feet of drilling at Kaycee ($3-4 million budget) and Premier planning 20,000 feet at Cyclone ($750,000), the companies maintain a healthy combined cash position supporting multi-year exploration programs.This acquisition comes amid unprecedented bipartisan US government support for domestic uranium production, with federal goals including quadrupling nuclear capacity by 2050 and adding 10 new reactors by 2030, creating a favorable backdrop for US-focused uranium developers.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.com/companies/premier-american-uraniumSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode of Cybersecurity Today, host David Shipley delves into alarming developments in the cybersecurity landscape. The FBI has flagged a massive malware campaign named Bad Box 2.0, which has compromised 1 million consumer devices globally, turning them into residential proxies. Additionally, a new variant of the Mirai malware is targeting DVR devices via a critical vulnerability. Meanwhile, criminals are shifting their operations from bulletproof hosts to harder-to-trace VPNs and residential proxy networks. The episode also covers urgent calls for post-quantum cryptography readiness amidst looming quantum computing threats, alongside a significant policy shift in the US. President Trump has signed an executive order dismantling former President Biden's extensive cybersecurity initiatives, including efforts focused on AI and quantum cryptography. These regulatory rollbacks emphasize minimal federal oversight and leave long-term digital defense strategies in question. 00:00 Introduction and Major Headlines 00:32 FBI Warns About Bad Box 2.0 Botnet 02:47 DVR Botnet Threats and Exploits 03:59 Shift in Cybercriminal Tactics 05:33 Quantum Computing and Encryption Concerns 07:08 Trump's Cybersecurity Policy Overhaul 11:36 Conclusion and Final Thoughts
