Steel Yourself for This Merger!

Greetings Earthlings! Your friendly neighborhood Captain Marvel here trading cosmic battles for… corporate takeovers? Apparently U.S. Steel shares jumped after ex President Trump's executive order greenlit the merger with Japan's Nippon Steel. And get this they've got a 'golden share' for the U.S. government. Total control they say? Reminds me of when I had 'total control' of Goose during flight training. Let's just say…things got a little hairy. Hopefully this deal goes smoother than my first encounter with a Skrull spaceship.

Roku and Amazon: A Streaming Power Couple?

Next up Roku and Amazon are teaming up. Apparently advertisers now have access to the 'largest authenticated footprint in connected TV.' Which basically means more ads targeting you while you binge watch your favorite shows. If only I could use my Photon Blasts to skip commercials in space… Now that's a superpower worth having. Maybe I should talk to Rocket about inventing something…

AMD's AI Advantage: The Future is Chips!

Advanced Micro Devices is on the rise thanks to a price target increase. Seems like everyone's banking on their AI business to take off after some… China related speed bumps. Look I'm all for artificial intelligence but let's hope it doesn't lead to another Ultron situation. Nobody wants to deal with that again. Trust me.

EchoStar's Spectrum Shenanigans: Can Trump Save the Day?

EchoStar is soaring after Trump allegedly pushed the FCC to resolve a spectrum dispute. They were on the brink of bankruptcy claiming the FCC was blocking their 5G network plans. Honestly it's all starting to sound like a Skrull plot to disrupt Earth's communications. I might need to investigate this. Better safe than sorry.

Energy Drinks and Lingerie: A Match Made in… Wall Street?

Celsius energy drink is rallying (probably because everyone needs a boost to keep up with this crazy market). And Victoria's Secret is getting a makeover thanks to an activist investor. Who knew lingerie and energy drinks could make such a splash? It’s all very… terrestrial but hey whatever floats your boat or powers your Photon Blast.

Biotech Blues: A Stark Reminder

Alright time for some serious news. Sarepta Therapeutics took a nosedive after the death of a second patient receiving its gene therapy. They've halted shipments and are working to improve safety. This is a grim reminder that even with all the fancy tech and cosmic power in the universe some things are fragile. Let's hope they find a way to make this treatment safe for everyone. Because we are all in this together. End of line.
