🇮🇱🇮🇷 Insane! An Iranian missile just bypassed all Israeli defenses and unleashed dozens of bomblets directly over Tel Aviv. The sky is literally exploding with munitions raining down on the city right now.

🇮🇷 Iran’s FM just slapped back at Trump’s 48-hour ultimatum: “The Strait of Hormuz is not closed. No insurer and no Iranian will be swayed by threats. Try respect instead.” Iran is openly defying the deadline. Source: @araghchi

@Tesla @SpaceX @xai Explosive upward potential. If Terafab goes into production as planned, it will mark a turning point for TSLA's transition from a "high-valuation automaker" to an "AI infrastructure leader," similar to the FSD hype of 2020-2021 but on a larger scale

TERAFAB: the next step to becoming a galactic civilization Together with @SpaceX & @xAI, we're building the largest chip manufacturing facility ever (1TW/year) – combining logic, memory & advanced packaging under one roof. To harness as much power as possible from the Sun, we need to send 100 million tons of solar capture into space – per year. This requires massive scale. – Capability to launch millions of tons of mass into orbit – Solar-powered AI satellites – Millions of @Tesla_Optimus robots to help build it out All of these need chips: 100-200GW of chips for Optimus alone, plus terawatts for solar-powered AI satellites. That's more than all the chip manufacturers in the world combined can provide today, or even by 2030 (based on projected production growth). We're building TERAFAB to close the gap between today’s chip production & the future's demand – a future among the stars terafab.ai

This crisis is a violent revaluation of what matters. In 2026, the winning strategy is no longer about "growth at any cost," but about security, energy autonomy, and strategic technology.

2026 Macro Storm: Global Asset Realignment Amid the Middle East Crisis ​In March 2026, the escalation of military strikes between the U.S.-Israel alliance and Iran, coupled with the hardline succession of Iran’s new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, has triggered a seismic shift in global finance. This is not merely a geopolitical tremor but a fundamental "Paradigm Shift" for oil, equities, gold, and digital assets. ​1. Oil: From Energy Anchor to Strategic Weapon ​With the Strait of Hormuz facing a near-total blockade, Brent Crude has surged past $100, with some analysts projecting a spike to $150 if the conflict remains protracted. ​Macro Logic: Oil is no longer just a fuel; it has become a tool for global liquidity redistribution. As non-U.S. nations scramble for increasingly scarce oil priced in USD, the greenback is experiencing a "morbid strength," further draining global liquidity. ​Inflationary Pressure: Sustained triple-digit oil prices have effectively killed hopes for a Federal Reserve pivot in the first half of 2026, forcing the world into a "High Rates, High Energy Costs" trap. ​2. The Asian "Drain": Hemorrhage in Japanese and South Korean Markets ​The most acute pain is being felt in East Asia, where resource-poor economies are facing a "triple whammy" of soaring energy costs, supply chain breaks, and currency devaluation. ​South Korea (KOSPI): The index suffered a "flash crash" in early March, triggered by fears of a total energy cutoff. Major tech titans like Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix—critical to the global AI supply chain—have seen double-digit pullbacks as energy-intensive semiconductor fabrication costs skyrocket. ​Japan (Nikkei 225): The Nikkei plunged over 6% in a single session. Despite its massive national reserves, Japan relies on the Middle East for roughly 95% of its oil. The market is now pricing in a potential recession as the "import-led inflation" erodes corporate margins and consumer power. ​3. Investment Opportunities: The "Wartime Resiliency" Portfolio ​While broad indices suffer, capital is concentrating in companies that provide "Strategic Autonomy" or "Defense Lethality." ​Defense & Intelligence AI: * Palantir (PLTR): A primary beneficiary of "war digitization," providing critical real-time battlefield analytics and logistics for U.S. and allied forces. ​AeroVironment (AVAV): A leader in tactical drone systems, which have become the defining hardware of the 2026 conflict. ​The Nuclear Renaissance (Anti-Oil Plays): ​Constellation Energy (CEG) & Vistra (VST): As oil becomes a liability, nuclear power has emerged as the ultimate hedge for powering AI data centers and national grids. ​Cameco (CCJ): The world’s uranium giant is seeing record demand as nations race to decouple from fossil fuel dependency. ​Wartime Cash Cows: ​Exxon Mobil (XOM) & Chevron (CVX): These giants are benefiting from the "Risk Premium" in oil prices, serving as safe havens for those seeking high dividends and hard-asset exposure. ​4. Safe Havens: Gold vs. Crypto ​Gold: Currently oscillating between $5,100 and $5,300. While it initially dipped due to "margin call" liquidations in the equity markets, its role as the "Ultimate Credit Hedge" remains unchallenged as sovereign debt concerns rise. ​Bitcoin (BTC): Despite being labeled "Digital Gold," BTC has traded more like a high-risk tech asset, slumping toward $66,000 during the initial panic. Its true test will come if the traditional SWIFT system faces regional disruptions, potentially transforming it into a "digital underground pipe" for cross-border settlements.

Path Forward: The Individual’s Survival Guide ​Identify "Hard Assets": Pivot toward companies with Technical Moats or Resource Monopolies. Avoid industries reliant on low-cost global shipping and cheap credit. ​De-Leverage: In a high-volatility environment (3-5% daily swings), leverage is a death trap. Preservation of principal is more important than chasing the "perfect" entry. ​Strategic Diversification: Maintain exposure to USD-denominated hard assets (Energy, Defense) and physical Gold to hedge against the erosion of purchasing power.

@ClayTravis if Tesla (or any autonomy leader) truly solves Level 5 autonomy, it will likely be remembered as the more "impressive" feat because it represents the first time humanity successfully delegated physical agency to a machine at scale

Self driving Tesla has replaced the iPhone for me as the most transformative technology of the 21st century. The iPhone has had far more impact so far, but I think the self driving Tesla is the most impressive tech creation of the 21st century.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський
The next Ukraine–U.S.–Russia trilateral meeting was planned for the period from March 5 to 9, depending on developments around the world. Currently, there is another war in the Middle East. We spoke with the American side, since they are the party inviting Ukraine and Russia to the meeting, about the possibility of changing the location and postponing the meeting for a while due to the war in the Middle East. But we very much hope that the exchange we agreed upon during previous meetings will be confirmed nonetheless. A POW exchange is always an important moment – it is a positive outcome for families. We sincerely hope that in the coming days we will be able to begin this exchange process. From an interview with Rai Italia (4/5).

@sama This statement is more like a political victory than a mere technical one. It rose to where Anthropic fell, wrapping the same bottom line in more euphemistic language.

Sam Altman@sama·
Tonight, we reached an agreement with the Department of War to deploy our models in their classified network. In all of our interactions, the DoW displayed a deep respect for safety and a desire to partner to achieve the best possible outcome. AI safety and wide distribution of benefits are the core of our mission. Two of our most important safety principles are prohibitions on domestic mass surveillance and human responsibility for the use of force, including for autonomous weapon systems. The DoW agrees with these principles, reflects them in law and policy, and we put them into our agreement. We also will build technical safeguards to ensure our models behave as they should, which the DoW also wanted. We will deploy FDEs to help with our models and to ensure their safety, we will deploy on cloud networks only. We are asking the DoW to offer these same terms to all AI companies, which in our opinion we think everyone should be willing to accept. We have expressed our strong desire to see things de-escalate away from legal and governmental actions and towards reasonable agreements. We remain committed to serve all of humanity as best we can. The world is a complicated, messy, and sometimes dangerous place.

@StockSavvyShay The vast majority of AI companies (including OpenAI, Google, and Meta) used the same common dataset (such as Common Crawl) during early development. These datasets are mixed with a large amount of unauthorized copyrighted content

How ironic that Anthropic just revealed top Chinese AI labs were illegally using Claude to improve their own models days after launch. The same week they launched a “security” product that wiped billions off $MSFT, $CRWD, $PANW, $ZS & $RBRK. You can’t make this up.
Shay Boloor@StockSavvyShay

Anthropic claims Chinese AI firms created 24,000 fake accounts to tap Claude. Another reminder that the AI race is now a national security issue.

@elonmusk This is the most common phenomenon currently. Small companies (or followers) record their responses by asking large companies a large number of questions about their models (such as Claude or GPT-4), and then train their models with these high-quality responses
