Anthropic is moving closer to the public market at a time when investors are already questioning how much the AI boom is worth.

SpaceX revenue surges 92%: can Starlink and AI justify their massive spending?

SpaceX has given investors two very different reasons to pay attention this month. On one side, the company is showing extraordinary operating growth, from record launch cadence to rapidly expanding Starlink and AI revenue.

Why semiconductor stocks are becoming the real test of the AI bubble

The debate over whether artificial intelligence has become a bubble is increasingly being fought through semiconductor stocks rather than software companies. Investors are no longer asking only whether AI will change the economy. They are asking whether the companies building the infrastructure behind that transformation can generate enough earnings to justify the extraordinary valuations created during the rally.

Could Trump capital gains tax cut reignite the AI stock rally?

Donald Trump’s floated proposal to cut capital gains taxes and expand home-sale tax exemptions is being discussed primarily as a political strategy ahead of the November 2026 midterm elections.
