Two Chinese developers recorded a 4 minute video showing how to build a team of 7 AI agents that replaces an entire customer support department for $50 a month. They opened a terminal. In 4 minutes they had the whole thing running. One agent classifies tickets. One reads the knowledge base. One handles billing. One watches the customer's tone. One decides when to escalate. One writes the report. One agent runs the other six. The math hit hard. 1,200 tickets a day per person. More than a call center of 8 operators. The company used to pay $25,000 to $40,000 a month in salaries. Now they pay $50 for the API. The video hit 4 million views in 72 hours. Every CEO in China was forwarding it. Every support team in America was panicking. While the West is still debating whether AI will replace workers, China just published the manual. These guys were teaching people how to fire a department. They just showed too much. Bro pause at 0:39. Ignore the guy in the blue shirt pointing. Look at the second monitor on the right. That window is not a support dashboard. That is a live wallet. gabagool22. $868,862 profit. 28,620 predictions.

Their own setup behind them was running an AI that replaces traders. 28,620 positions. All BTC. All 15 minute windows. All green. The comment section turned into a detective board. Someone slowed the video to 0.5x. Screenshotted every frame where the right monitor was visible. Stitched them together. Reconstructed the full wallet page from 6 seconds of background footage. Entry prices between 2 and 10 cents. Payouts in the thousands. Not one red row in 28,620 entries. Biggest single win: $4,696. From a 15 minute window on a Tuesday. The 7 support agents save a company $40K a month. The wallet on their second monitor makes that in one good week. The tutorial taught the world how to replace a customer support team. The setup behind them was already replacing the trading desk. They deleted the wallet zoom from the next upload. Too late. Someone had already screen recorded it. The clip hit Discord. Then Telegram. Then every dev forum. The tutorial got 4 million views. The zoom on their second monitor got another 800,000. 727K people watching the wallet now. The 7 agents are still answering tickets somewhere for $50 a month. The wallet behind them does not need 7 agents. It needs one. And that one was already running while they filmed.

There are few things that are more important for the health of the world than the health of U.S.-China relations and the health of our oceans. For over 40 years, I have cared deeply about both, so for me this goodwill mission @oceanx just completed bringing together American and Chinese students and early-career scientists has been a dream come true.

With the greatest humility, I am pleased to announce that the Islamic Republic of Iran and the United States of America, along with their allies, have agreed to an immediate ceasefire everywhere including Lebanon and elsewhere, EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY. I warmly welcome the sagacious gesture and extend deepest gratitude to the leadership of both the countries and invite their delegations to Islamabad on Friday, 10th April 2026, to further negotiate for a conclusive agreement to settle all disputes. Both parties have displayed remarkable wisdom and understanding and have remained constructively engaged in furthering the cause of peace and stability. We earnestly hope, that the ‘Islamabad Talks’ succeed in achieving sustainable peace and wish to share more good news in coming days! @realDonaldTrump @JDVance @SecRubio @SteveWitkoff @SEPeaceMissions @drpezeshkian @mb_ghalibaf @araghchi

UK borrowing costs are on the rise once more this morning. Per the Bloomberg chart below, yields on 10-year British government bonds are again above 4.70% as the war in the Middle East pushes Brent oil north of $95 once again. This translates into higher mortgage costs just as the market is struggling with supply disruptions. #economy #uk #markets #mortgages

Another super wild day in the oil market as prices plummet following President Trump’s speech yesterday evening, an unconfirmed report of the US military escorting a tanker through the Strait of Hormuz, and a multi-country agreement on a possible coordinated release of strategic reserves. Pulling back the lens a little, the volatility is staggering: In just 7 days, oil prices surged from around $70 a barrel to nearly $120 just 24 hours ago, only to fall to $80 currently. FWIW, I expect this turbulence to persist: The ongoing conduct of the war, the growing misalignment of incentives between the three main countries ( US, Israel, and Iran), and the inherent complexities of energy supply chains suggest that volatility is far from over. #oil #markets #economy #middleeastwar

China’s streak of extraordinary trade surpluses continues as total exports surge yet again, defying economic frictions with the US Powered by a massive 21.8% annual increase in exports—shattering the consensus forecast of 7.1%—China recorded its highest-ever trade surplus for the January-February period: $213.6 billion (versus the consensus projection of $180 billion). This blistering start to 2026 follows the record-breaking, eye-popping $1.2 trillion surplus registered in 2025. #economy #trade #markets #china

As an ex-professional poker player who went all-in on $TSLA in 2015 and has since retired, I think I know a thing or two about dealing with extreme variance. In this vlog I talk about the lessons I've learned about emotional stability and how to learn to ignore all the noise.

Yes. A massive strategic error is being made right now to damage solar/battery that will leave America extremely vulnerable in the future.

NGOs should not be funded by the government to lobby elected representatives!

Remember that one man’s debts are another man’s assets. That means if you both weaken a currency and produce more of it, the value of that currency decreases. This tradeoff is particularly challenging when a country has a large debt burden, like the U.S. today. In my new book, How Countries Go Broke: The Big Cycle, I outline a plan for how we can navigate this tricky situation.

Q1 2025 Earnings Call twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

The Consequences of Liberation Day Following up on my post below from earlier this week, now that we see yesterday's tariff announcements, it appears to me that the first order consequences of them will be significantly stagflationary in the U.S. and significantly deflationary/recessionary in sanctioned countries. As for the second order consequences, we will see other countries' responses, significant policy changes in all countries to try to negate these undesired effects with policy tools at their disposal (most importantly via their monetary and fiscal policies). I also think negotiations and changes in what the U.S. policies will end up being will come as second order consequences. For example, we have seen reciprocal tariffs by China (which if enacted and followed by other countries will have huge effects), and, as I mentioned in my earlier article, I can imagine negotiations taking place over a China-U.S. deal to strengthen China’s RMB relative to the USD in exchange for some trade relief. If that were to happen, it would be more deflationary and depressing for China, which in turn would need to lead to an easier monetary and/or fiscal policy in China. You get the picture. We have in store many big surprises and changes ahead. To reiterate what is clear in any case and should be kept in mind is that… …1) the production, trade, and capital imbalances (most importantly the debts) must come down one way or another, because they are dangerously unsustainable for monetary, economic, and geopolitical reasons (so the current monetary, economic, and geopolitical orders must change in big ways)… …2) they will likely come with abrupt, unconventional changes (like those I describe in my new book How Countries Go Broke: The Big Cycle) and… …3) the longer term monetary, political, and geopolitical effects will depend mostly on the trust in the quality of the debt and capital markets as a safe store-hold of wealth, countries' productivity levels, and the political systems that make countries attractive places to live, work, and invest. Speaking of balance, I hope that your portfolio is balanced in the ways that I won’t digress deeply into here but have described previously in my books (i.e., across asset classes and geographies in an uncorrelated way and informed by which assets do well in different inflationary and growth environments). Expect the ride ahead to produce some very big tests and shakeouts that will be great tests of investors’ skills as the critically important monetary, domestic political, and international geopolitical orders are breaking down. Frankly, I look forward to this challenge as it is during such challenging times in the game that the opportunities make a big difference and distinguish oneself are the greatest. The views expressed in this article are mine and not necessarily Bridgewater’s.
