    I remember hearing about thorium back in my Wall Street days. For decades, analysts pitched it as a “cleaner, safer” alternative to uranium because it couldn’t be weaponized and produced far less radioactive waste.

    Nvidia just reported a $44 billion quarter. That’s up 69% from a year ago…And nearly enough revenue to buy General Motors outright. Its data center business alone brought in $39 billion.

That wasn’t the purpose of this bipartisan hearing anyway. But what he did say tells us a lot about where AI is heading.

    Editor’s Note: The market is closed today in observance of Memorial Day, but Ian’s post-Super Bowl issue is more relevant than ever. Make sure you read to the end to find out how you could indirectly invest in Elon Musk’s biggest space venture. On Sunday night, I joined 126 million people across the globe to watch the Philadelphia Eagles clobber the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. As a beleaguered Giants fan, I didn’t have a dog in that fight. I was just hoping for a Philly loss.
