IN THE WORLD
China and Russia Gettin Froggy Again
Stock Shares of Moderna rose as news of a new Coronavirus was reported in China.
Apparently carried by another Bat. Yikes.
Australian authorities alerted commercial airlines after Chinese warships began “live-fire” military exercises off the east coast. Several carriers have already rerouted flights to ensure passenger safety amid rising geopolitical tensions.
In a developing diplomatic circle jerk, U.S. officials opposed language labeling Russia as the aggressor in a forthcoming G7 statement commemorating the anniversary of its invasion of Ukraine. This stance underscores a growing grift among Western allies over how best to confront Russian actions.
Internal Discord at Meta Over Content Moderation. You should probably just ditch Meta. But (probably) still buy their stock.
Meta’s oversight board is reportedly split following abrupt changes announced by CEO Mark Zuck-daddy regarding content moderation policies. Critics say the move sidelined independent advisory input, fueling internal and public debate over free speech and corporate responsibility.
Economic Data and Market Movements
Investors and analysts focused on a mixed economic picture this week as new data—including manufacturing and services indices—prompted discussions about the future direction of global markets. Markets reacted strongly to signals on inflation and central bank policies.
Ha!, Friggin Nerds!
STONKS
Stocks ended Lower, but nothing drastic.
S&P500: 6,013.13
Dow Jones: 43,428.02
Everyone is wiggin out about Tarrifs, but the way I see it, if my Apple Stocks App is in the Red, I buy.
During times like this, I will buy a share or two, a week, of things like VOO, VONG, and VOOG.
I Keep a butt ton of cash in reserves for when the market takes a big dive. But I continue to Dollar Cost Average where I can.
If you don’t know wtf that means, DM us, we will do a post about it.

The Good Stuff
Severance Season Two: Apple TV
These episodes remind us that the modern workplace isn’t just a setting for mundane drudgery—it’s a crucible where our innermost conflicts, repressed emotions, and the battle for authenticity play out in real time. The show’s psychological tension is not merely about corporate satire; it’s an incisive commentary on how we, as individuals, struggle to remain whole in an increasingly fragmented world.
Basically, it rocks.
Also I own like 1 or 2 shares of Stock in Apple. So I’m biased.
Just get Apple TV already.
