Adding flexibility to data center loads could ease strain on the grid and reduce the need for costly new generation. And, according to one study, shaving off just a few megawatts during peak hours could also unlock unused capacity —as many as 98 gigawatts in the U.S —  if those facilities reduced load by just 0.5% each year.   The problem: data centers promise near-perfect reliability, often “five nines” (99.999% uptime) in service-level agreements with customers. That leaves little room to adjust something as critical to reliability as power.  But times are changing. The data center market is reckoning with the constraints of the power grid and growing concern about pushing up electricity prices to pay for new generation. In July, the Electric Power Resource Institute's DCFlex demonstration at an Oracle data center in Phoenix, Arizona, reduced load 25% during peak demand. And this month Google expanded its demand response through two new agreements with Michigan Power and the Tennessee Valley Authority. So what are the actual mechanics of data center flexibility? In this episode, Shayle talks to Varun Sivaram, founder and CEO of Emerald AI. The startup's data center flexibility platform powered EPRI's DCFlex demonstration. Shayle and Varun cover topics like: What people often misunderstand about how much of their nameplate capacity data centers actually use  The distinct load profiles of training, inference, and other workloads How data centers can pause, slow, or shift workloads in time or space to reduce demand What it will take for flexibility solutions like Emerald AI to earn operator trust  How much flexibility data centers can realistically achieve  Varun's long-term vision for evolving from occasional demand response to weekly or even daily load shifting Resources: Latitude Media: Nvidia and Oracle tapped this startup to flex a Phoenix data center   Latitude Media: Google expands demand response to target machine learning workloads    Catalyst: The potential for flexible data centers   Credits: Hosted by Shayle Kann.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I dive into Oracle's bold $1 billion-a-year move to power a massive AI-focused data center in West Texas using gas generators.Highlights00:18 — Oracle is set to spend over a billion dollars a year to power a new mega data center in West Texas, using gas generators instead of waiting to be connected to the local utilities. The gas-powered site is being developed by Vantage Data Centers. It will cover 1,200 acres, house 10 data centers, and have a total capacity of 1.4 gigawatts — making it one of the largest in the world.01:00 — So, why spend a billion dollars a year on power generation? The issue is that obtaining approval for power infrastructure projects of this size using local electricity gridscan take years. The balance between progress and environmental impact is not so straightforward. While gas-generated electricity is cleaner than other fossil fuels, it is still far from clean energy.01:33 — I reported a few months back on Microsoft's efforts to mitigate the environmental impact of data centers by changing construction methods, while Oracle recently floated the idea of using nuclear power — a much cleaner alternative to gas. I hope that, in the drive for success in a painfully competitive market, these core values and significant concerns for sustainability are not lost. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

“Complexity is at the core of this, and our mission at Broadcom has been how to address this complexity by making things simpler,” says Abhay Kumar, Global Head of Managed Services for Broadcom's VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) division. In this Technology Reseller News podcast, recorded live at VMware Explore 2025, Kumar discusses Broadcom's strategy for making the private cloud AI-native, portable, and partner-driven. Since acquiring VMware two years ago, Broadcom has focused on positioning VMware Cloud Foundation as the consistent foundation for enterprise workloads—whether on-premises or across hyperscaler environments. Key themes from the conversation include: AI-native private cloud – VCF now incorporates a private AI foundation, with expanded partnerships with NVIDIA and Canonical to accelerate AI and containerized workloads. License portability – Broadcom is giving customers the flexibility to dynamically move entitlements between on-premises and multiple clouds, protecting investments while enabling innovation. Ecosystem and choice – Customers can run workloads across AWS, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, and other providers while maintaining consistent control through VCF. Simplifying complexity – CIOs and partners face hybrid environments, containers, and AI workloads. VCF's single-pane-of-glass approach reduces operational complexity and ensures skills can be leveraged across environments. Kumar emphasized that Broadcom's strategy puts customers at the center, giving them the flexibility to innovate with AI services and advanced analytics while managing cost, efficiency, and control.

Mariano founded Onapsis back in 2009 to address the challenges securing a growing new class of technology: ERP systems. After working at CYBSEC for 5 years doing offensive security research, he discovered just how vulnerable SAP applications could be. Onapsis is sneakily a juggernaut, having raised a $55 million Series D in 2020. And while they started focused on SAP, they have since expanded into related tools such as Oracle. They have certainly established themselves as core to securing an often overlooked component of IT infrastructure. In the conversation we discuss the founding story, why SAP couldn't do this themselves, and how he has thought about growth opportunities over the last 16 years.Website

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees and “British Invasion” pioneers, The Zombies, todayannounce the release of Odessey & Oracle Mono Remastered on September 26th. The album, thefirst of four definitive physical reissues from their catalog, includes the classic songs “Time OfThe Season,” “Care of Cell 44,” and “This Will Be Our Year” and is a regular entry in “BestAlbums of All Time” lists in publications like Rolling Stone, NME, and Mojo Magazine. Therelease, which coincides with The Zombies' documentary, Hung Up On A Dream, marks the firsttime the band's original mono mix, remastered from studio tapes, has appeared on LP since therecord's British issue in 1968, presenting the album as they originally intended it to be heard.Pre-order the album on all formats here.Recorded primarily at London's legendary Abbey Road Studios in 1967, Odessey & Oracle wasself-produced in Mono on a shoestring budget by primary songwriters Rod Argent (keyboards/vocals) and Chris White (bass/vocals). Under last-minute pressure from their record label, thealbum was hastily remixed in the newly emerging Stereo format, which sacrificed key elementsfrom the Mono recording, most notably the beloved horn parts in “This Will Be Our Year”.The band today also share the first track off the album, the mono remastered version of “ThisWill Be Our Year”, with the horn parts restored. Although never released as a single, this deepcut has found a new life thanks to prominent uses in TV and film, including memorable scenes inMad Men, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and Schitt's Creek, and covers by artists like FooFighters, OK Go and Susanna Hoffs. Its positive and uplifting message has been embraced bycouples as a popular wedding song, and become a staple of New Year's playlists. Listen here.The album also includes new liner notes from famed writer, David Fricke. Read an excerptbelow:Odessey and Oracle is very much of and about its time: songs of youth and love – thelucky strike of attraction ("I Want Her She Wants Me"); flickering memories held tight("Brief Candles"); longing that defies the odds ("Maybe After He's Gone") – from pop'shigh season of amour, a crowded nirvana of landmark debuts (Pink Floyd, the Doors, theJimi Hendrix Experience) and definitive accounts of Britain's psychedelic bloom…Thisalbum was also built to stand the test of time, at the 11th hour by a band with everythingto prove. "We were always dissatisfied with the production of our records," Argent said in1971 of the Zombies' Decca work. "We wanted to produce an album before we broke upto satisfy ourselves." The result was a fearlessness that still rings fresh, that inventiondriven by the Zombies' stringent resources and their confidence in the songs. Most of "ARose for Emily" is simply piano and vocal, an Argent-Blunstone duet with streaks ofchoral sigh.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

The reorganization eliminates the CEO position, with GitHub’s leadership team reporting to multiple executives within CoreAI rather than a single leader, potentially impacting decision-making speed and product direction.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I explain how Oracle is transforming healthcare with its AI-driven, cloud-native EHR, setting a bold path toward intelligent care.Highlights00:02 — Oracle has introduced an updated version of Oracle Health EHR, or Electronic Health Record, for ambulatory providers in the U.S., built on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. The new system features native AI agents that operate together as an orchestrated system for maximum process efficiency.00:29 — The new Oracle Health EHR, was designed in collaboration with frontline providers and delivers the services that they require in a manner that's most useful to them. For example, it features personalized, streamlined workflows. In 2026, Oracle plans to enhance the system to include acute care, further expanding the reach of this groundbreaking technology.00:50 — Now, this represents a major leap forward for healthcare providers, and Oracle is right to focus significant efforts in this direction, enabling clinicians to cut through the administrative burdens of the healthcare industry. Identified as one of the first major use cases for generative AI, it remains a priority, and Oracle is certainly thinking big in this area.01:13 — In fact, Seema Verma, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Oracle Health and Life Sciences, said the following: "When Oracle committed to transforming the healthcare industry, we knew we had to start with the EHR." Note the commitment to not just supporting, but "transforming" the healthcare industry. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

In progressive religion, African-Americans occupy a sacred caste status—beyond criticism, requiring constant resource redistribution. Yet this narrative ironically continues black America's core historical theme: dehumanization. Leftists project onto black Americans whatever serves their power needs rather than seeing them authentically. Growing up in majority-black Philadelphia taught me that most progressives from whiter areas fundamentally misunderstand black culture, perpetuating the very dehumanization they claim to oppose.

Steven Dickens says Zoom (ZM) needs to capitalize more on A.I. if the stock is to get anywhere near its pandemic highs. He adds that if Zoom builds a platform similar to Microsoft's (MSFT) Teams or Alphabet's (GOOGL) Google suite, it can become an outperformer in the agentic A.I. space. Steven later turns to Oracle (ORCL), which he is "absolutely bullish" on due to its growth possibilities among hyperscalers. Tom White joins to offer example options trades for Oracle and Zoom.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I look at how the four hyperscalers are now spending a billion dollars every day on CapEx to keep up with explosive AI demand.Highlights00:19 — The four hyperscalers — AWS, Microsoft, Google, and Oracle — are now spending, as of Q2, a combined billion dollars a day on CapEx to try to keep up with explosive AI demand. Here's where these numbers come from. And I will say here, I'm calling it Q2, but Oracle's quarter ended May 31.01:00 — But these are very close for the four CapEx spending numbers for the four hyperscalers: AWS, $31.6 billion; Microsoft, about $27 billion. Google Cloud, $22.4 billion. Oracle, $9.1 billion — far more than Oracle has ever spent before. That's a total of $90.1 billion. We had 91 days in the quarter. So yeah, I cheated a little. It's actually $990.1 million per day. But I got a little crazy.02:02 — Andy Jassy, the CEO of Amazon said, “You know, this is a new industry. It's pretty crazy. You know, we've built at AWS a $123 billion annualized run rate business, and we're still in the early days.” All of the business leaders are realizing that to be able to compete going forward, they're going to have to turn their businesses into AI-powered enterprises.03:20 — They don't see this as a one-time seasonal boom that will go back down. They all say, “We think we're going to be spending at these rates going forward.” Oracle CEO Safra Catz, reflecting on the $9 billion that Oracle spent in its quarter ended May 31, said for the coming year, “We are expecting to spend more than $25 billion in CapEx — way more than ever before.”04:05 — CFO Amy Hood gently guided the questioner through this, saying, “That is a lot of money, there's no question about it. But our RPO, or remaining performance obligation — we have future commitments at Microsoft Cloud for $368 billion in customer contracts, and we don't currently have enough capacity to meet that. It's going to continue to go up.” Visit Cloud Wars for more.

Joe Luchs is the Founder and CEO of DatalinxAI, an AI-powered data refinery that simplifies customer data. As an expert in AI, AdTech, MarTech, and SaaS, he previously served as the Global Head of AWS and Amazon Ads at Amazon, where he led global partnerships and AI business development. Joe was also the Commercial Founder and Head of Revenue at Beeswax (acquired by Comcast) and held a leadership role at Oracle. In this episode… Organizations are beginning to implement AI for personalization, automation, and business intelligence. Yet, messy, unstructured, and inconsistent data hinder smooth implementation. How can businesses bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI models and the data readiness required to scale them? According to AI and data expert Joe Luchs, companies often spend years and vast resources on data prep before they notice ROI on AI models. He recommends using secure hybrid cloud architectures, embedding data compliance measures, and automating preparation processes to free up teams from tedious work. By focusing on high-quality data readiness, businesses can accelerate AI adoption, empower staff to focus on innovation, and deliver the hyper-personalized experiences consumers expect. In today's episode of The Digital Deep Dive, Aaron Conant sits down with Joe Luchs, Founder and CEO of DatalinxAI, to discuss preparing data for widespread AI adoption and integration. Joe explains how consultancies have pioneered data readiness, the future of AI-driven brand experiences, and the dangers of leveraging AI without proper regulations.

We've heard a lot this year about AI enabling new scams, from celebrity deepfakes on Facebook to hackers impersonating government officials. However, a new report suggests that AI also poses a fraud risk from the other direction — easily falling for scams that human users are much more likely to catch. The report, titled "Scamlexity," comes from a cybersecurity startup called Guardio, which produces a browser extension designed to catch scams in real time. In other news, Bloomberg has published a deep dive into operations at Oracle, chronicling the software giant's rise in cloud computing and current push into powering artificial intelligence projects. The publication reported that Oracle has promised to develop tens of billions of dollars in data centers, which have become a hot business. And more and more airlines think that Starlink is the solution. The latest company to sign with the SpaceX affiliate is Alaska Air Group, which announced that it will start offering Starlink Wi-Fi next year and expand the service to its entire fleet by 2027.

In this episode, I sit down with Gabriella, a dynamic leader who's been on a journey of transformation in both her personal and professional life. We dive into the lessons she's learned along the way about vulnerability, leadership, and rediscovering herself after becoming a mother.

Gabriella is a beacon of modern leadership, showing how women can break barriers, lead with purpose, and drive lasting impact in both industry and community.Gabriella's Intentional JourneyWe start by discussing Gabriella's journey of intentionality. Gabriella shares how, prior to becoming a mother, she had always lived a life where success and career advancement were her primary focus. She talks about the mindset shift that came with motherhood, realizing that the greatest value she carried was not in her ability to present perfectly but in her ability to present the person behind the success. This journey wasn't easy, but it became something truly beautiful as she learned to put her authentic self first.The Challenges of MotherhoodGabriella opens up about the challenges she faced when trying to become a mother. She had a long, emotional journey with infertility that tested her ability to overcome challenges beyond her control. Gabriella reveals how this experience shifted her perspective on life and success. While she was used to achieving anything she set her mind to in her career, the struggle to have a child was something that was completely out of her control, making her question her identity in a way she had never experienced before.Balancing Career and Personal LifeAs we talk about the complexities of balancing career and personal life, Gabriella explains how she was able to use hardship as motivation to keep going. Even when she faced emotional and physical challenges, her drive to succeed in her career and maintain strong relationships with her family pushed her forward. However, it wasn't always easy, and there were times when she felt out of control, not knowing if everything she was doing was worth it.Rediscovering IdentityThe journey through infertility and becoming a mother prompted Gabriella to rediscover who she truly was outside of her professional success. She explains how redefining herself wasn't just about overcoming adversity but also about surrendering to the process and being vulnerable. For the first time, Gabriella allowed herself to acknowledge the struggles, and in doing so, she found a new sense of authenticity that helped her grow as both a person and a leader.The Power of VulnerabilityGabriella shares an important lesson in vulnerability: it's not just about being vulnerable with others, but also with yourself. She talks about how being open about her struggles, both personal and professional, has made her a stronger leader. She reflects on how many leaders, especially women, have often been conditioned to hide their vulnerabilities, but she now understands the power that comes with showing up authentically, even when things aren't perfect.Leadership and EmpathyA major theme of this episode is the relationship between leadership and empathy. Gabriella talks about how being an empathetic leader doesn't make you weak; in fact, it can make you stronger. She emphasizes that showing empathy and understanding in leadership, especially during times of hardship, helps build deeper connections with your team and creates a more sustainable work environment. Leadership is not just about making decisions; it's about showing your humanity and being willing to support others through their challenges.Conclusion and Next StepsAs we wrap up the conversation, Gabriella shares some final thoughts on how leaders can balance their personal and professional lives, as well as how embracing vulnerability can lead to stronger, more authentic connections with those around them. She encourages leaders to keep striving for authenticity and to remember that imperfections and challenges are not weaknesses, but rather growth opportunities.Resources Mentioned:If you're ready to grow as a leader, join me for my free monthly leadership workshop at rockygarza.com/confidence Follow Gabriella on Instagram: @GabriellammonteFollow The Village on Instagram: @thevillagedallasKey Timestamps:00:00 Introduction: Embracing Imperfection00:46 Gabriella's Intentional Journey02:39 The Challenges of Motherhood04:32 Balancing Career and Personal Life06:06 Rediscovering Identity07:49 The Power of Vulnerability08:51 Leadership and Empathy19:19 Conclusion and Next StepsTo join Rocky for his next free virtual event, go to https://rockygarza.com/beyondsuccessSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/trgs/donations

In this episode of The Product Experience, Lily Smith and Randy Silver are joined by Kirsten Mann, former CPO at Prospection and now startup founder and board member, to discuss how product leaders can play a vital role on company boards. Drawing from her own board experience and a research series interviewing founders and directors, Kirsten explains why product, culture, and customer insight must be central to boardroom conversations.Key Takeaways— Product's Place on Boards: Product is a strategic lever, boards should treat it with the same seriousness as financials.— Culture as a Strategic Asset: Culture emerged as the most frequently cited factor in board-level success—more than AI or tech.— From Operator to Overseer: Transitioning to a board role requires stepping back from execution and focusing on governance and strategic guidance.— Communicating with Boards: Product leaders must avoid jargon, speak in terms of customer problems, outcomes, and investment returns.— The Risk of Exclusion: If your product team isn't presenting to the board, that's a red flag.— Practical Preparation: Aspiring board members should build financial literacy, start with non-profit boards, and cultivate visibility through writing or public speaking.Chapters00:00 – Culture over strategy: Why getting culture right matters more than clever planning00:45 – Meet Kirsten Mann: Introduction and credentials01:45 – Career transition: From CPO at Prospection to board member, investor, and startup founder04:50 – Early board experience: Saving a youth club through governance and tech06:45 – Product's value on boards: Bringing customer and tech insight into strategic discussions08:00 – Oversight, not execution: Adjusting from exec roles to governance roles09:50 – Frustration sparks research: Why Kirsten began writing about product leaders on boards11:00 – Product strategy ≠ support: The board's risk-first mindset Our HostsLily Smith enjoys working as a consultant product manager with early-stage and growing startups and as a mentor to other product managers.

In her 25+ part series, Kendra recounts what she describes as a toxic relationship with her psychiatrist, claiming that he had used his position of power and his mental health education to manipulate her into falling in love with him and unethically choosing not to transfer her to the care of another doctor. While there are a lot of opinions swirling around on the internet in response to this viral series, the vast majority seem to have come to the same consensus: that Kendra isn't coming across as the most reliable narrator. Things only escalate more when she begins going live regularly and speaking to her subscribers which have now adopted the name “The Gloricles” in reference to her now infamous nickname “The Oracle,” which she claims was given to her by her AI chat bot.  We Love the Internets: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT69RwYWU/ https://www.instagram.com/reel/DMicgjfuM2E 00:00 - Introduction 00:50 - Kendra Falls In Love with Her Psychiatrist  1:42:52 - Kendra's Livestream Compilation 2:17:19 - We Love the Internet We hope you enjoyed this episode!

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I break down a major move by the U.S. government and AWS.Highlights00:02 —The U.S. government is being given access to $1 billion in AWS credits for use until the close of 2028 to help bolster federal cloud adoption and IT modernization efforts.00:38 — We're seeing companies in the Cloud Wars Top 10 and beyond offering the U.S. federal government massive discounts to secure contracts under the administration's AI Action Plan. Companies like DocuSign, Adobe, and Oracle are reportedly providing discounts of up to 70 to 75%. OpenAI is offering ChatGPT at a discounted rate to federal users.01:27 — Secondly, there's a shift we're witnessing. Instead of clashing with the government, these companies are offering significant discounts because they're valuing the opportunity upfront. AI that aligns with the government and private industry will undoubtedly be safer and more reliable.  Visit Cloud Wars for more.

Just as many analyze rock music for Satan, who can be found in greater abundance instead within pop music, we are looking in the wrong place for aliens and gods too. The approaching 3I/ATLAS interstellar object has been classified as possibly non-natural, largely based on the work of a Harvard team led by Abraham (Avi) Loeb. In a recent paper, termed a “pedagogical exercise,” the team said “the most likely outcome” of the anomaly will be that it is “completely natural interstellar object, probably a comet.” But this has not stopped speculation from spiraling out of control, so that what was a thought experiment has now evolved into a warning about a coming extraterrestrial invasion. But there is more to the story, because the ideas presented here are equivalent to to SARS-CoV2, i.e., an invisible potential threat.Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna recently told Joe Rogan in August 2025 that she's seen evidence of “interdimensional beings” and that there are reports of their “movements outside of time and space.” She goes on to refer to the Bible and the time of Christ, meaning that her comments share a relationship with ancient astronaut theory too.This reminds us of White House science adviser Michael Kratsios who claimed in April 2025 the U.S. has technology that can “manipulate time and space.” It won't be lost on some that the congressman is named Luna, Latin for moon, and the science advisor's name is derived from Kratos, Greek for strength and power and associated with war; he is the enforcer of Zeus with his sister Bia (force). The name “Atlas” has the same meaning of strength, though in mythology he is a Titan, or a primordial deity of natural forces. The two previous interstellar objects, Oumuamua and Borisov, which means “messenger from afar arriving first” and “fighter” respectively. Such names imply a coming messenger and fighter that has the ability to change the order of life and introduce a new way of thinking.Going back to a July 8, 1947, memorandum numbered 6751, the U.S. government reportedly knew that Roswell - whatever happened - was to be understood on the basis that the flying “disks carry crews” or are “under remote control,” and that they have a mission from another world. The documented says their “planet” is an “etheric planet which interpenetrates with our own and is not perceptible to us.” It likewise links their home to the Lokas and Talas, respectively the higher and lower spiritual planes. Avi Loeb also recently posited that 3I/ATLAS may herald the arrival of “a messianic era,” that the messiah may come “from another star.” He also believes there “needs to be an international organization” to deal with possible peace or conflict which accompanies contact, though he hopes, like President Reagan, such a thing will “bring people together” even if it is based on “an external threat.” It must not be a coincidence that reports are simultaneously being published by religious websites claiming Israel has either already performed the red heifer sacrifice or at least conducted a test run for the real ritual, something many believe is necessary before the Third Temple can be built. However, ultra-orthodox Jews believe this is wrong, and that divine intervention should be the author of ritual instead of human initiative. Other Jews see the sacrifice as archaic and believe the messiah is an era, like Loeb eluded too, rather than a person. Either way, almost all Christians are eager to fulfill perceived prophecy.Amateur astronomers have further noted the appearance of cube-like structures near the sun and some have even suggested that certain views of 3I/ATLAS appear to portray the object in a similar form. Of course this relates to Revelation 21:16 which describes the New Jerusalem as a cube. However, the book in question is a metaphoric spiritual treatise and the city in question is nothing more than the foundation of peace. The cube indicates a sort of polished masonic rock, where a person is square and upright. Whether interpreted literally or figuratively we can still find a messianic era and the bringer of peace in these stories, though if such things are perceived as literal they may bring war instead.   On the other hand, UAP celebrities like Jeremy Corbell have contrarily been warning that the public is going to be told “there is a craft on its way to Earth” and that it is a “lie you are going to be told.” So why are we looking in the wrong place for aliens and gods? Because quietly under our noses the rise of AI has taken over businesses, schools, governments and even spirituality. The big technology boom in AI is also, according to Larry Ellison of Oracle, evolving primarily out of Herzliya Israel. If the Jewish messiah or messianic concept in some capacity arrives from another star, even if such an idea can be implanted, then perhaps it would explain why certain Jewish stereotypes and the Jewish covenant with god have been seen as part of the ancient alien narrative. In fact, the entire idea of ancient aliens, or paleo-astronautics, was first introduced by Matest M. Agrest who was born into a family of Torah scholars. As C.J.S. Thomson wrote of the Elf, their home “is in the celestial regions” and they are “skilled in the mechanical arts.”*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

In this Market Mondays clip, hosts Rashad Bilal, Troy Millings, and Ian Dunlap break down the latest developments surrounding Nvidia, AMD, and the impact of Donald Trump's strategy to allow U.S. chip sales to China—with a unique twist: a potential 15% revenue cut to the U.S. government. The trio explores what this means for American companies dominating the semiconductor space, how business-first policy maneuvers could shape the future, and the ripple effects on tech giants like Dell, Oracle, and Micron.Ian and Troy discuss whether Trump's negotiation style and dealmaking could benefit or hinder companies like Nvidia and AMD, while Rashad dives into the strategic moves NVIDIA and the government are making to ensure industry dominance without losing out to international competitors. The conversation also weighs in on net margins, supply chain risk, and the delicate balance American companies face when tapping into the Chinese market under new restrictions.Key points explored in this clip:Trump's “deal-making” approach to global tech and resource accessHow U.S. chipmakers like Nvidia and AMD stand to gain or lose from a 15% sales fee to the governmentThe role of American tech companies like Dell, Oracle, and Micron in the race for semiconductor leadershipThe impact on net margins for AMD vs. Nvidia and implications for future growth and stabilityThe pressures and strategies required for American firms to maintain market dominance amid trade restrictionsWhether you're an investor, a tech enthusiast, or just curious about the future of American business and policy, this discussion delivers deep insights straight from the Market Mondays team.

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch. Today, it's all good martinis, as they focus on a serious collision of Chinese military vessels as they harassed a ship from the Philippines, California voters making it clear they want no part of California Gov. Gavin Newsom's gerrymandering scheme, and the Department of Homeland Security reporting many illegal aliens have self-deported.First, after commenting on Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov appearing in Alaska wearing a CCCP sweater, they react to reports that two Chinese military ships collided at high speed as they tried to intimidate a much smaller military vessel from the Philippines. Jim says Beijing should use this as a chance to back off its territorial ambitions in the region but probably won't. They also discuss the mood in Taiwan amid recent rumors of a Chinese invasion.Next, they lampoon Gov. Newsom's bid to troll President Trump and Texas Republicans by proposing a ballot measure to undo California's constitutional requirement for an independent redistricting commission. But polling shows voters overwhelmingly oppose the scheme. Jim also underscores how brazen it is for Democrats to push such a move in one of the most heavily gerrymandered states in America.Finally, they welcome the DHS report that 1.6 million illegal aliens have voluntarily left the U.S. since Trump became president. This is additional proof that Trump's immigration policies are working. And they also explain how the left and its media allies are taking truly radical approaches to oppose the enforcement of immigration laws.Please visit our great sponsors:Sleep on an award-winning mattress from Brooklyn Bedding.
