IS ANTHROPIC TIRED OF BEING THE CONTRACT KILLER COMPANY ?

The Pentagon is testing AI models from OpenAI, Google, and others as it looks for alternatives to Anthropic’s Claude, per Bloomberg. The tests began in March with 25 heavy users of the Defense Department’s AI tools across five military theater commands. The move follows Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth designating Anthropic as a supply-chain risk over its model guardrails, a designation Anthropic is now challenging in court. Claude is currently used heavily in the Pentagon’s Maven Smart System, including classified operations.

WHICH STOCKS ARE MAKING MORE MONEY THAN GOD ( YTD) ?

Standout Small-Cap Big Runners in 2026 (YTD or 1-Year Gains)

Here are some of the most notable ones based on recent performance:

  • AXT Inc. (AXTI) — One of the biggest stories. Up ~540%+ YTD and over 7,000% in the past year. This materials company supplies substrates (e.g., Indium Phosphide) critical for AI/data center optics and semiconductors. Strong demand, revenue growth, and capacity expansion have fueled the parabolic move (market cap now ~$6-7B).
  • Lightwave Logic (LWLG) — Up massively (~1,800%+ over the trailing year in some reports). Develops electro-optic polymers for high-speed data transmission/photonics. Key partnerships (e.g., with Tower Semiconductor) and progress toward commercialization in AI/optical interconnects have driven gains. Still pre-revenue in meaningful volumes but with strong pipeline momentum.
  • Spire Global (SPIR) — Strong performer, up ~167-187% YTD in periods. Provides satellite-based data, analytics, and insights (maritime, aviation, weather, etc.). Core business growth, satellite launches, and 2026 revenue guidance ($75-85M) support the run.

Others with big moves:

  • Satellogic (SATL) and Tigo Energy (TYGO): Significant gains (hundreds of percent in some windows) tied to space tech and solar/energy optimization.
  • Biotech/others like Relmada Therapeutics (RLMD) or various high-volatility names in AI/security/energy have also seen explosive short-term runs

THE BIGGEST IPO IN MODERN HISTORY

SpaceX (often called "SPACX" in shorthand) is gearing up for what could be the largest IPO in history, far bigger than anything seen before.

Current Status

  • Elon Musk recently said he's prioritizing getting the SpaceX IPO underway "pretty soon" while working in Texas.
  • The company confidentially filed its S-1 with the SEC in early April 2026.
  • Public filing/details are expected this week, with a potential listing/pricing around June 12 (some reports mention June 19) on Nasdaq.
  • It's accelerating, including plans for a 5-for-1 stock split ahead of the debut.

Scale & Valuation

  • Targeting a $1.75 trillion to $2+ trillion valuation.
  • Aiming to raise $75 billion+ — this would dwarf Saudi Aramco's record ~$29 billion IPO.
  • Pre-IPO buzz is massive, with secondary markets and even crypto platforms trading hype around it. Investors like Ron Baron are extremely bullish, calling it a future mega-company

What Drives SpaceX

  • Starlink (satellite internet) is the big revenue growth engine now.
  • Rocket launches, Starship development, government contracts, and ambitious future plans like space-based AI/data centers.
  • Most revenue currently comes from Starlink services rather than just launches

SpaceX is much closer to going public (weeks away) and is positioned as the biggest potential IPO. OpenAI is still laying groundwork for a later 2026 (possibly Q4) or 2027 IPO at a ~$800B–$1T valuation, but faces more hurdles (including the recent Musk lawsuit win for them, revenue misses, and competition).

WHAT IS GOIING ON ELON MUSK VS OPENAI (SAM ALTMAN)

Musk co-founded OpenAI in 2015 as a nonprofit focused on safe, beneficial AI for humanity (he donated ~$38M early on and left the board in 2018). He sued in 2024, accusing Altman, OpenAI, and others of betraying that mission by shifting to a for-profit structure (heavily backed by Microsoft), prioritizing profits over openness/safety, and unjustly enriching themselves. He sought major remedies, including leadership changes or restructuring, with damages potentially in the billions.

REACTIONS :

  • Musk's response: He called it a "calendar technicality" and has vowed to appeal (likely to the 9th Circuit).
  • OpenAI's side: This is a big win — it removes a major legal cloud, clears the way for their planned IPO, and validates their position procedurally.
  • The trial featured dramatic testimony from key Silicon Valley figures and highlighted deep tensions in the AI industry over profit vs. "for humanity" goals.

What Happened

  • The verdict: The jury unanimously found that Musk waited too long to sue — his claims were barred by the statute of limitations (California's 3-year limit for these types of claims). They deliberated for under 2 hours. The judge adopted the verdict right away, dismissing the entire case.
  • The jury did not rule on the core allegations (whether OpenAI breached its founding nonprofit mission, engaged in unjust enrichment, etc.). It was decided on a procedural "technicality" (timing), not the merits of the dispute.

DO YOU THINK ELON MUSK WILL GET WHAT HE WANTS ?

DID THE US- CHINA SOLVE ANYTHING ?

The Trump-Xi Summit honestly feels like they got nothing even remotely important accomplished.

- China will buy more Boeing Jets...okay, they do that every few years.

- China will buy more beef...thanks. Especially because they are just buying what they stopped buying a while ago.

- China will join the US to denounce North Korea being a nuclear powerhouse...lol, yes because China and the US both are going to try to seriously get NK to give up nukes. Makes sense.

The point of the summit, from my understanding, was for Trump to get Xi to convince Iran to stop the BS and sign a deal.

From all reports, Xi not only laughed at the US proposal, but he gave a counter proposal that Trump said hated, going as far to say that he "couldn't get through the first line of it."

In fact, the CCP only really wanted to talk about Taiwan, which obviously the US does NOT want to discuss.

Bond yields are *literally* exploding up, pacing their Feb 2025 highs because the escalation from Trump over the weekend and the lack of any progress with China makes the market think inflation will once again be the biggest issue this year as CPI and PPI are the hottest since 2022 and oil continues to be over $100.

Now, the market doesn't really care...because semiconductors continue to provide all the earnings growth...but I wonder if the market does start to care soon.

Just doesn't seem like we resolved anything with Iran in any meaningful way over the past week but hoping the ceasefire stays in place and military escalation isn't on the table.

WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MICROSOFT ?

Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation sold 100% of their Microsoft

$MSFT

position…

The guy who created Microsoft just had his foundation dump the entire stake, 7.6M shares.

Either he thinks Microsoft is over or he completely hates valuations in tech right now

  • The foundation disclosed in its latest SEC 13F filing (around May 15, 2026) that it sold its remaining ~7.7 million shares during Q1 2026.
  • This stake was worth approximately $3.2 billion at the time.
  • It completed a multi-year reduction: The trust held about 28.5 million shares (worth ~$10.7 billion, or ~26% of the portfolio) as of early 2025, then steadily sold down to zero.

This marks the first time since the foundation was established that it holds no Microsoft shares

THE MOST IMPORTANT NUMBER FOR THE MONTH ( NON-FARM PAYROLL )

26 April 2026

Nonfarm Payroll ReportJobs added (actual)115,000 jobsvs 62K expected — beat by 85%

Unemployment rate4.3%Unchanged (stable)

Wage growth YoY3.6%Below expectations (cooling)

3-month avg hiring48,000Down from prior monthsJ

Job losses YTD9,000+Federal jobs, IT, finance

WHAT THIS MEANS FOR SMALL BUSINESSES:

Positive factors:

  • The stronger-than-expected headline number shows the labor market is gradually cooling while remaining broadly resilient, which reduces recession fears.
  • A resilient labor market means consumer spending power remains intact — good for small-cap retailers and service providers
  • Small businesses were the top contributors, adding 65,000 jobs, while large companies added 42,000, showing small enterprises are leading job creation.

Negative factors:

  • The three-month average now sits at just 48K, down from the previous month, indicating a declining trend in job creation overall.
  • Small caps are typically more vulnerable to hiring slowdowns since they rely more on organic growth and have less financial cushion.
  • The stronger-than-expected jobs data doesn't make for a compelling case for Fed rate cuts, which means interest rates will stay higher — pressuring small-cap companies that rely on cheaper debt financing.

WHAT THIS MEANS FOR LARGE BUSINESSES:

  • Positive factors:
    • The report bolstered financial market views that the Fed would leave interest rates unchanged into 2027, removing uncertainty.
    • No Fed rate cuts means the dollar stays strong and inflation stays under control — good for multinational large caps with global operations
    • Large companies added 42,000 jobs, showing they're still able to hire strategically
  • Potential headwinds:
    • The composition flatters the headline — while federal job losses accelerated and slack quietly building, April reads less like a soft patch than confirmation that the post-March bounce was the anomaly.
    • Large-cap tech in particular faces pressure: Information sector shed 13K jobs, signaling AI-driven automation is already reducing tech hiring
