The chipmaker 148 times smaller than NVIDIA supplying Musk (Ad)

According to Yahoo Finance, Elon Musk's latest project could 'upend another industry just as he did with cars and rockets.' Tech investor Jeff Brown - a former senior executive at Qualcomm, Juniper Networks, and NXP Semiconductors - says one tiny chipmaker, 148 times smaller than NVIDIA, is set to supply Musk with 5 billion chips over the next two years. Early investors in Tesla and SpaceX saw life-changing returns. Brown believes this overlooked chipmaker could offer a similar opportunity, with entry points currently around $50.tc pixel

Trump’s New Currency Reset (Ad)

Trump is launching a new $250 bill - but that may be a distraction. Behind the scenes, Executive Order 14241 is orchestrating what analyst Porter Stansberry calls a total U.S. money reset, bypassing conventional legal channels under the guise of national security. The last time America reset its currency - under Nixon in the 1970s - it created an average of 1,300 new millionaires a day for over 50 years. Stansberry has identified three asset categories connected to Trump's initiative that could surge, plus his single top investment move.tc pixel
