Alicia Reese helps tune investors in to the latest developments on Netflix (NFLX). She sees revenue continuing to grow for the streaming giant but makes the case it can bolster its ads and ad-supported programs to become a more significant profit engine. She adds that Netflix is in the "very early" stages of expanding its platform into a content superpower to the likes of Walt Disney (DIS). One headwind Alicia points out: Netflix losing the UFC contract to Paramount Skydance (PSKY). Tom White offers investors a pair of example options trades for Netflix.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

What happens when an internal hack turns into a $400 million AI rocket ship? In this episode, Matt Turck sits down with Boris Cherny, the creator of Claude Code at Anthropic, to unpack the wild story behind the fastest-growing AI coding tool on the planet.Boris reveals how Claude Code started as a personal productivity tool, only to become Anthropic's secret weapon — now used by nearly every engineer at the company and rapidly spreading across the industry. You'll hear how Claude Code's “agentic” approach lets AI not just suggest code, but actually plan, edit, debug, and even manage entire projects—sometimes with a whole fleet of subagents working in parallel.We go deep on why Claude Code runs in the terminal (and why that's a feature, not a bug), how its Claude.md memory files let teams build a living, shareable knowledge base, and why safety and human-in-the-loop controls are baked into every action.

Every year, hundreds of films are produced in Hengdian, a once-obscure township in Zhejiang province that is now often referred to as "China's Hollywood".Few people realize, however, that the ascent of Hengdian — and the broader transformation of Zhejiang as a cultural powerhouse — was shaped earlier when Xi Jinping served as the province's Party secretary.In 2003, months after becoming secretary of the Communist Party of China Zhejiang Provincial Committee, Xi visited Hengdian at a moment when its sprawling film sets were growing rapidly, but the industry lacked support for deeper integration across the production value chain.Private capital was still restricted from entering critical areas such as film production and distribution."He encouraged us to explore boldly and vigorously develop the film and cultural industry," recalled Xu Tianfu, vice-president of Hengdian Group.Soon after Xi's visit, Zhejiang authorities launched a provincial task force to study reforms, which led to the creation of China's first national-level film industry pilot zone in Hengdian in 2004.The move marked a turning point in widening investment opportunities for the cultural sector and laid the groundwork for what is now one of the world's busiest film production hubs.In 2005, the provincial Party committee, under Xi's leadership, adopted "eight projects" to build Zhejiang into a province with strong culture.The projects span eight areas — civic quality, cultural excellence, cultural research, cultural preservation, cultural industry promotion, cultural infrastructure, cultural communication and cultural talent development.As China pushes to build itself into a nation strong in culture, the projects have provided key references and are a critical component of Xi Jinping Thought on Culture, analysts said.The thought, first put forward at a two-day national meeting on the work of public communication and culture in October 2023, highlighted the need to meet the people's increasingly diverse, multitiered and multifaceted spiritual and cultural needs, and enhance the supply of services and products, in order to strengthen people's sense of cultural fulfillment and happiness.Chen Ye, former vice-president of the Zhejiang Academy of Social Sciences, said the eight projects reflected Xi's belief that cultural development is central to modernization."His strategic vision, forward-looking ideas, political courage and pragmatic approach laid a solid foundation for preserving cultural heritage and promoting contemporary cultural development," she said.In Zhejiang, the results have been more than palpable. More than 5,000 film and television companies operate across the province. Since 2003, the added value of Zhejiang's cultural industries has risen from 44.2 billion yuan ($6.15 billion) to over 615 billion yuan. Their share of the province's GDP has more than doubled, to over 7 percent.The province is now home to three UNESCO World Heritage sites, five national archaeological parks, 281 nationally protected heritage sites and 926 registered village museums.One of the most notable preservation efforts has focused on the archaeological ruins of Liangzhu City, a Neolithic site on the outskirts of Hangzhou.Preserving heritageDuring a 2003 visit, Xi was briefed on the status of the preservation of the site — a hub for a rice-cultivating and jade-worshiping culture dating back 4,300 to 5,300 years."The Liangzhu archaeological site is a sacred testament to China's 5,000-year civilization and a rare, invaluable treasure. We must ensure its preservation with the utmost care," Xi said during the visit.He ordered the expansion of the preservation zone, halted nearby quarrying and called for the site to be prepared for nomination as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Over the next decade, archaeological work accelerated alongside policy, legal and ecological support, and in 2019, Liangzhu was inscribed on the World Heritage List.Preservation of intangible heritage was also elevated under Xi's tenure in Zhejiang.In 2005, when he visited a Kunqu Opera troupe in Yongjia county, the troupe had been struggling to survive since losing public funding in the 1980s.After watching the performance and speaking with veteran actress Lin Meimei, Xi initiated a provincial-level plan to rescue the centuries-old Kunqu Opera.The troupe was granted heritage status and allocated funding of 1 million yuan per year. Today, it stages more than 200 shows annually and has worked with a vocational college to train new performers."We are full of gratitude," Lin said. Now recognized as a national inheritor of Kunqu Opera, she added: "The flame of Kunqu Opera in Yongjia has not gone out. We've lived up to the legacy entrusted to us by our forebears."Innovation mattersXi's emphasis on cultural innovation also extended to the animation and gaming sectors.In 2005, he visited the China Academy of Art, where he highlighted the broad potential of the animation sector and the strength for Hangzhou to build a "city of animation".That same day, he toured Zhejiang Zhongnan Animation Co, now one of the largest original animation companies in China."Animation should not be measured purely in financial terms," Xi told Wu Jianrong, chairman of Zhongnan Group, of which Zhongnan Animation is a subsidiary."It provides young people with healthy spiritual nourishment. Chinese civilization has over 5,000 years of history — you can create animated works featuring our national heroes," Xi said.Encouraged by Xi's remarks, Zhongnan produced a series of animations and began exporting them.That year, Hangzhou hosted the inaugural China International Cartoon & Animation Festival, generating over 10 million yuan in on-site sales and 3 billion yuan in potential deals.Xi later wrote to national regulators to help secure Hangzhou as the event's permanent home and supported the creation of a dedicated organizing office.Hangzhou is now home to more than 270 animation and gaming companies, employing over 12,000 people. The city is the birthplace of the hit video game Black Myth: Wukong, and 227 internet-based animated series produced in the city were licensed in 2024, accounting for 34.45 percent of the national total.Across Zhejiang, there are more than 300,000 private cultural enterprises — up from fewer than 45,000 in 2003.Chen, the former vice-president of Zhejiang Academy of Social Sciences, said that Xi's cultural initiatives during his tenure in Zhejiang and the landmark achievements in the new era highlighted the importance of sustained efforts to deliver cultural development outcomes that truly benefit the people."It also indicated that the implementation and evaluation of cultural initiatives should prioritize the production of more high-quality outcomes to meet the cultural rights and interests of the broadest segments of the population."

GSD Presents: Top Global Startups with Lionel Gibbs Scaling Solvet: Building Canada's Homegrown Animal Health Powerhouse July 11th, Friday

                                          Listen in as Erin and Mallory discuss: How Mallory scaled from helping with a few apartment sales to running a $200M team — in just 7 years. How she spent two full years learning the basics and building a real business foundation before scaling. How her team thrives on clear SOPs, post-deal roadmaps, and constant refinement (even after success). How hiring the right assistant changed her life — but she had to go through several wrong fits to get there. How wins don't magically lead to more business — you must outflow, take action, and keep the momentum going.                                               About Mallory Bogard is co-founder of the Bogard New York Team, a top real estate team in New York City at SERHANT. Mallory began her real estate career in 2016. Prior to real estate, Mallory held an esteemed 10-year career in timepieces, overseeing international markets and global growth for a leading timepiece company. She traveled extensively, analyzed local market sales and viability, and positioned brands in other countries for maximum success. Prior to that, she worked on seasonal branding for a fashion house licensed for timepieces for Marc by Marc Jacobs, DKNY, Burberry, Diesel, Michael Kors, and more. Mallory's specializations include brand-positioning, business development, and leadership. By her 2nd year in real estate, Mallory achieved her first large feat, signing up her first new development; by year 3, she was an associate broker; and by year 4, she had garnered over $100 million in sales. She has laid the business foundation for business growth in team operations, and now she trains, leads, and manages other agents into successful careers in real estate with the founding principals: hon­esty, integrity, and work to uplift the industry of professional real estate salespeople, by growing the next generation of agents to do the same. Mallory is frequently a guest speaker at her alma mater, the University of Oklahoma, podcasts, and real estate panels and events, speaking on "Dreaming Bigger", her journey from growing up on an emu farm in Oklahoma to leading one of the fastest- growing real estate teams in New York City. When Mallory isn't working, she loves mentoring young professionals, visiting family in Oklahoma, and eating at new restaurants around New York City.

Technology Reseller News Podcast with Dave Michels, TalkingPointz "AI and automation is really all that anyone cares about right now. And this is a power combination." — Dave Michels, TalkingPointz In this Technology Reseller News podcast, publisher Doug Green speaks with Dave Michels of TalkingPointz to unpack NICE's blockbuster $955 million acquisition of Cognigy, a move that signals a transformative leap in the CX and CCaaS landscape. “This is a landmark moment,” said Michels. “We're watching the CCaaS space redefine itself around CX—and NICE is taking decisive action.” NICE, a global leader in AI-powered customer experience, announced it is acquiring Cognigy, the top enterprise provider of conversational and agentic AI. This acquisition unites NICE's CXone Mpower platform with Cognigy's Cognigy.AI, enabling organizations to orchestrate AI agents across front and back office functions with purpose-built CX AI models. Michels noted that while CCaaS providers have been increasingly positioning themselves under the broader ‘customer experience' banner, this acquisition may be the inflection point. “I've been wondering when the Magic Quadrant would shift from CCaaS to CX. This deal brings us closer.” Cognigy brings with it a blue-chip client list—including Lufthansa, Mercedes-Benz, Swissair, Nestlé, and Puma—and a projected 80% ARR growth in 2026. NICE gains not only powerful technology, but also an elite customer base and a strong European footprint. As for whether the nearly $1 billion price tag was justified, Michels pointed to investor confidence: “NICE gained $500 million in market cap within hours of the announcement. That's Wall Street's endorsement of the deal.” He also predicts that NICE will maintain Cognigy's independence. “To shut down their open ecosystem would be foolhardy. These are complementary solutions—this gives NICE a broader seat at the CX table.” From cultural alignment to AI-first innovation, Michels sees the deal as smart and strategically sound. “Both companies are platform-first. Both are chasing the same strategic vision—and they're better together.” As the contact center market pivots to CX orchestration powered by AI, this acquisition may come to be seen not just as timely, but foundational. To hear more insights from Dave Michels, visit TalkingPointz.com, and stay tuned to Technology Reseller News for continued coverage of this evolving story.

Send us a textIn this episode of Art Wank, we sit down with one of Australia's most respected – and at times divisive – voices in the art world, John McDonald. Known for his decades-long career as an art critic and columnist, John brings sharp insight, dry humour, and a deep knowledge of art history to the conversation.We discuss the role and relevance of art prizes in today's cultural landscape, including whether they truly reflect quality or simply reinforce trends and institutional biases. John shares his candid thoughts on the Archibald Prize, among others, and questions the criteria by which we measure artistic merit in competitive formats.Our chat turns to the shifting state of the Powerhouse Museum and the controversial changes that have sparked public outcry. John offers a well-informed perspective on how institutions like the Powerhouse serve (or fail to serve) their communities, and what's at stake when decisions are made without proper consultation.We also touch on public art and the recent Lindy Lee sculpture installed at the National Gallery of Australia. While acknowledging her important place in Australian art, John questions the processes behind major commissions and whether spectacle sometimes overshadows substance in large-scale public works.This episode is a lively, thought-provoking conversation about the state of the Australian art world — its politics, pitfalls, and potential — from someone who's spent a lifetime analysing it. Whether you agree or disagree with his views, John McDonald is never boring, and his insights are well worth a listen. If you'd like to read more of John McDonald's writing, subscribe to his Substack, Everything the Art World Doesn't Want You to Know.

Nuclear Fuels shareholders will receive 41% ownership of the combined entity, bringing $14 million in cash from their November 2024 financing round to support aggressive exploration programs.The combined company will operate the largest exploration drilling programs of any non-production uranium company in the United States. The Kaycee project in Wyoming alone has committed to over 100,000 feet of drilling in 2025, building on successful 2024 results that included both resource expansion and new discoveries. The project carries an exploration target of 11.5 to 30 million pounds of uranium, while the Cyclone project targets 8-12 million pounds. Combined with existing 43-101 compliant resources at the Sevieta project in New Mexico, the portfolio provides diversified exposure across the development spectrum.Both Wyoming projects benefit from critical proximity to existing licensed uranium processing facilities. Kaycee sits within 20 miles of Christensen Ranch and Nichols Ranch processing facilities, while Cyclone is positioned 12-14 miles from Lost Creek and Sweetwater Mill. This infrastructure access could significantly accelerate development timelines through satellite operations or toll milling arrangements, potentially providing faster cash flow generation compared to building standalone processing facilities.CEO Colin Healey noted the strategic advantage: "11.5 million pounds to me is beyond critical mass to be a satellite. I think that 2-3 years from now when those resources are probably potentially being delineated, the existing processing facilities in the US looking for feed and possibly expansion because there's going to be a push to grow uranium production in the US."The combined entity benefits from significant institutional support, including backing from Sachem Cove, IsoEnergy, and Mega Uranium. Nuclear Fuels maintains a strategic relationship with enCore Energy, one of the largest US uranium producers, which holds a buyback option on the Kaycee project at 2.5 times exploration costs once resources reach 15 million pounds. Rather than limiting upside, executives frame this as providing development partnership optionality and potential funding support.The enlarged company expects inclusion in major uranium ETFs, including URJ, URMM, and potentially URA, which could provide sustained institutional buying pressure. Plans for US listing following the merger target the larger US investor base and improved liquidity, addressing key challenges facing Canadian-listed uranium explorers.The transaction occurs against supportive federal policy tailwinds emphasizing domestic nuclear fuel security. Greg Huffman, CEO of Nuclear Fuels, emphasized: "There's going to be a huge push for domestic to reignite that domestic uranium and nuclear fuel supply chain." This policy support, combined with AI-driven electricity demand growth, positions the combined entity to benefit from anticipated uranium sector re-rating.While the merger creates compelling scale and strategic positioning, uranium exploration carries inherent geological and market risks. Resource targets remain unproven until confirmed through drilling, and cash flow generation remains years away. However, the combination of financial strength, infrastructure access, institutional backing, and supportive policy environment creates multiple value creation pathways for investors seeking exposure to US uranium exploration with significant upside potential.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- In a post to Truth Social, President Donald Trump wrote: “The Radical Left Democrats have hit pay dirt, again! Just like with the FAKE and fully discredited Steele Dossier, the lying 51 ‘Intelligence' Agents, the Laptop from Hell, which the Dems swore had come from Russia (No, it came from Hunter Biden's bathroom!), and even the Russia, Russia, Russia Scam itself, a totally fake and made up story used in order to hide Crooked Hillary Clinton's big loss in the 2016 Presidential Election, these Scams and Hoaxes are all the Democrats are good at - It's all they have - They are no good at governing, no good at policy, and no good at picking winning candidates. Also, unlike Republicans, they stick together like glue. Their new SCAM is what we will forever call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax, and my PAST supporters have bought into this ‘bullshit,' hook, line, and sinker. They haven't learned their lesson, and probably never will, even after being conned by the Lunatic Left for 8 long years. I have had more success in 6 months than perhaps any President in our Country's history, and all these people want to talk about, with strong prodding by the Fake News and the success starved Dems, is the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax. Let these weaklings continue forward and do the Democrats' work, don't even think about talking of our incredible and unprecedented success, because I don't want their support anymore! Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” 3:30pm- - Sen. Dave McCormick—United States Senator from Pennsylvania—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to recap yesterday's successful Energy & Innovation Summit where CEOs from some of the biggest tech companies in the country pledged to invest $92 billion in Pennsylvania, much of which will go towards energy infrastructure allowing for the domestic development of artificial intelligence. 3:45pm- While speaking to the press on Wednesday, President Donald Trump said that people claiming his administration is preventing the release of Jeffrey Epstein files are being “foolish.”
