The concept of space elevators isn't new, but engineering such a structure would be no easy feat, and many other issues besides technology stand in the way. Japan aims to build a space elevator by 2050Japan's Skytree Tower is tall, but it's nowhere near as big as a space elevator. AdvertisementAccording to some designs, space elevators would shuttle cargo to orbit on electromagnetic vehicles called climbers. Other estimates for space elevators in general have put the price at $227 per pound. For instance, a space elevator's tether would be under such incredible tension that it would be prone to snapping, Johnson said.

Nunes wants to investigate whether "Wall Street insiders" are engaged in naked short selling the stock, which trades under the DJT ticker. As of Wednesday, Trump Media had a market capitalization of roughly $8 billion.

☆ Hedge fund manager Eric Jackson says Nvidia is still cheap, likes this other AI beneficiary
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-05 | by ( Sean Conlon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Nvidia is still inexpensive even as it rose to a new record on Wednesday because of the rapid pace of its earnings growth, according to EMG Capital's Eric Jackson. Last month, Nvidia topped Wall Street expectations for the fiscal first quarter and issued strong guidance for the current quarter. While Nvidia is a leader for Jackson, there's also another stock in the AI space that's on his radar. Last week, Dell shares tumbled 18% after the company reported a decline in margins and missed expectations with its AI server backlog. But Jackson believes its incremental AI server revenues of $1.7 billion from its previous quarter has positioned the company to show better margins as the year goes on.

You've heard this one before: A big tech company is offering a lifeline to distressed media companies. That's the argument against a slew of deals publishers have been making with Sam Altman's OpenAI over the past few months. But the OpenAI deals, the publishers emphasize, are straightforward licensing deals for stuff they're already making. AdvertisementWhich means — they say — at the end of these deals, publishers won't have to regret investing in another defunct Big Tech project.

☆ Nvidia's 10-for-1 stock split is set for Friday. Here's what you need to know, plus what its fair value will be after, according to Morningstar's chief US market strategist.
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-05 | by ( Laila Maidan | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

Nvidia is set to make a 10-for-one forward stock split on June 7, which means your one share will become 10 shares. A stock split won't change a company's economic value or the value you hold of it. It only changes the proportionate amount of ownership that each share represents, says Dave Sekera, Morningstar's chief US market strategist. After the stock split, its fair value would go to $105, Sekera noted. One notable impact that could result from a lower share price is Nvidia's increased potential of being included in price-weighted indexes, specifically the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
