What BBN said about it

  1. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentBloomberg reports copper is stable while the AI-driven tech stock rally holds near a record. Boring metal, loud neighbors.

  3. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentBloomberg's editor says it signals sustained demand for chip materials and infrastructure. That's the angle, not a price call.

  4. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorFutures are barely moving. Nasdaq futures are down point zero seven percent, S and P futures up point zero four.

  5. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThat's a gift wrapped in a yawn.

  6. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentBro, the S and P closed up point five eight percent, and the VIX is at fifteen point oh one. Nobody's scared. Suspicious.
