Trump’s administration announced a proposed $1 billion grant to support the company’s new quantum computing venture and just like DELL, IBM is now a direct Trump-backed play. IBM shares jumped 12.4% on Thursday, its best in over a year, and gained another 4.6% in overnight trading, with sentiment flipping to extremely bullish. With IBM getting the lion’s share reportedly around $1 billion of the $2B quantum push, it’s positioned as the next big mover.

Robinhood just handed your portfolio and your wallet over to AI.

The launch of “Agentic Trading” and an “Agentic Credit Card,” two new tools that allow AI agents to trade stocks and make purchases on users’ behalf. Customers can create a separate brokerage account with a capped balance for AI-managed trades, while Robinhood Gold cardholders can link a virtual credit card for agents to make automatic purchases — from concert tickets to flights — with customizable spending limits and optional manual approval. Initial support covers equities, with options, crypto, futures and prediction markets planned next.

The big question isn’t whether AI can trade for you it’s whether you trust it not to lose it all while you sleep.

American birth rates have crashed nearly 30% since 2008, while the S&P 500 keeps hitting record highs, one of the largest divergences ever between Wall Street and Main Street. As The Kobeissi Letter put it: “only asset owners can afford this economy.”

And that’s exactly the problem. Years of stimulus have inflated stocks, real estate and businesses great if you own them, brutal if you don’t. Younger Americans are priced out of housing, buried in debt, and increasingly delaying or skipping starting a family altogether. Even BlackRock’s Larry Fink warns AI could widen the gap further. The market keeps climbing, but the average household is being left behind.

Not long ago, Lululemon was the brand everyone wanted to own, both in their closet and in their portfolio. Fast forward to today, and the stock has crashed nearly 75% from its 2023 peak. Slowing U.S. sales, fierce competition from rising stars like Alo Yoga and Vuori, and growing doubts about whether the brand still feels “premium” have all piled on. To make things worse, founder Chip Wilson is publicly calling out management and pushing for change. What once looked unstoppable is quickly turning into one of retail’s biggest comeback challenges.

Can Lululemon bounce back, or is this the end of an era?

The U.S. Office of Government Ethics released President Trump’s Q1 2026 periodic transaction report on May 14. Filed on two OGE Form 278-T documents totaling 113 pages, it discloses 3,642 securities transactions, roughly 58 trades per market session, with an aggregate value the OGE estimates between $220 million and $750 million.

The names shown here are positions disclosed at more than $1 million in value: heavy concentration in Big Tech, and broad-market exposure through the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF.

Under the STOCK Act of 2012, sitting presidents must disclose individual trades but aren’t barred from making them.
The filing is public record and available through the OGE.

OpenAI is reportedly preparing to confidentially file for its initial public offering as early as this Friday, marking what could become one of the most consequential public market debuts in recent memory.

The company currently valued at more than $850 billion by private investors is allegedly working alongside Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to finalize the paperwork, with a potential listing targeted for the fourth quarter of 2026. CFO Sarah Friar has framed the move as a matter of operational maturity rather than a fixed timeline, but the implications extend far beyond OpenAI itself: a successful offering would set a new benchmark for the valuation, scrutiny, and governance of frontier AI companies entering the public arena.
