The South Korean stock market is going parabolic like never seen before in history. $KOSPI just hit a new all-time high today and is up +37% in the last 34 days after adding ₩1,600 trillion ($1 trillion USD) to its market cap. It is now up 172% in the last year.

The world is using more US Dollars than ever: Offshore US Dollar deposits held in banks outside the US are up to a record ~$14.5 trillion. This is +220% more than the ~$4.5 trillion held at the beginning of the century. By comparison, only ~$3.5 trillion worth of euros are held in offshore banks, outside the Eurozone. And, the Fed and domestic commercial banks hold over $19.0 trillion. This means offshore US Dollar deposits are now equivalent to~43% of US domestic bank deposits, with no other currency coming close to this percentage. Global demand for USD is incredibly high.

Jomo Kenyatta the founding father of Kenya, married Ngina Kenyatta in 1951 as his fourth and last wife. At the time of their union, which was conducted under Kikuyu customary law, Ngina was roughly 18 years old, while Kenyatta was in his early 50s. The marriage was seen as a significant political and cultural alliance; Ngina was the daughter of Chief Muhoho wa Gathecha, a powerful and influential colonial-era chief. Despite Kenyatta being polygamous, Ngina became the official First Lady of Kenya upon independence in 1963. She was the "Mother of the Nation" and a constant presence by his side during public events. Shortly after they wed, Kenyatta was arrested in 1952 by British colonial authorities during the Mau Mau uprising. Ngina herself was later detained at Kamiti Maximum Prison for several years due to her support for the independence struggle.

Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu has revealed that she reprimanded President William Ruto for his announcement about the Tanga refinery, saying she was not aware of it beforehand. Speaking during the MoU signing and press conference at State House in Dar es Salaam, Samia pressed Ruto to explain the declaration made at the Africa We Build Summit 2026 in Nairobi, where he, Uganda’s President Yoweri Museveni, and Nigerian billionaire Aliko Dangote discussed plans for a joint oil refinery. “Tulipokuwa tunaongea ndani kule. Nilimbana Ruto nikamwambia umekwenda kutangaza refinery Tanga mbona mimi sijui. Sasa atasema yeye mwenyewe kwa nini akatangaza.”

The Musk vs OpenAI trial is the craziest courtroom drama in tech history. Here are the wildest facts from Week 1: → Musk tried to settle 2 days before trial. Brockman said “let’s both drop it.” Musk replied: “you and Sam will be the most hated men in America. If you insist, so it will be.” → Musk admitted under oath that xAI “partly” distills OpenAI’s models. Audible gasps in the courtroom. → The judge told Musk: “I suspect there’s plenty of people who don’t want to put the future of humanity in Mr. Musk’s hands.” → Musk donated $38M to OpenAI as a nonprofit. It’s now worth $850 billion. He turned down equity. → OpenAI’s lawyer showed emails of Musk poaching their staff. Musk’s response: “It’s a free country.” → Musk is suing OpenAI for going for-profit. Meanwhile xAI is going public at $1.75 trillion through SpaceX. In June. → Google co-founder Larry Page called Musk a “speciesist for being pro-human” during an AI safety argument. → Musk originally wanted $134 billion in damages. Now he wants Altman and Brockman removed entirely. → The jury verdict is advisory only. The judge makes the final call. Brockman is on the stand this week. Altman testifies later this month. This trial could literally decide whether OpenAI stays as we know it or gets unwound completely.
