It's been almost three years since Silicon Valley started aggressively pushing large language model-based chatbots like ChatGPT as the supposedly inevitable future of everything, and there's no group that has felt the pressure quite like Gen Z.

It's been almost three years since Silicon Valley started aggressively pushing large language model-based chatbots like ChatGPT as the supposedly inevitable future of everything, and there's no group that has felt the pressure quite like Gen Z. Like with many tech trends before it, it's no surprise that young people are among the biggest adopters of AI chatbot tools. But contrary to the tales spun by tech companies like OpenAI and Google, polling data shows that Gen Z students and workers are a big part of the wider cultural backlash against AI. And even as they utilize these tools, vast swaths of young people are deeply acrimonious and eve … Read the full story at The Verge.

DJI's Osmo Pocket 4 is the first of its compact steadicams not to launch in the US, following a string of DJI drones also missing the US market. The good news for American buyers is that the Pocket 4 is mostly an evolutionary upgrade, and there's little it does that the Pocket 3 doesn't (it looks like the rumored dual-lens Pro version will be more of a reinvention). The good news for everyone else is that those evolutions run throughout the Pocket 4, from the camera sensor to the controls. That makes this an unmistakable improvement over the previous generation.

137 Ventures , a repeat investor in Elon Musk ’s SpaceX , has raised $700 million across two new funds to back startups over longer time horizons. The capital will be split between two funds, one for primary investments and tenders and the other for founders and employees of startups backed by the firm, Managing Partner Justin Fishner-Wolfson told Bloomberg. “We’ve been a little bit under the radar,” he said in an interview, adding the firm has built meaningful stakes “on a percentage and absolute dollar basis in some of the world’s most important companies.” With the new capital, the firm’s assets under management total $15 billion across nine funds and co-investments. While the world’s biggest technology companies are staying private for longer, markets are waiting for SpaceX to attempt the biggest public listing of all time in late June . Musk’s company is seeking to raise around $75 billion at a valuation of more than $2 trillion, Bloomberg has reported. 137 first invested in SpaceX in 2010. Since then, it has written about two dozen checks into the company, Fishner-Wolfson said, and also invested in defense technology, AI and space startups like Anduril Industries Inc. , Hadrian, Cognition and Impulse Space . The firm — which has around 27 people, including five investing partners — has been deepening its own talent pool. Ashley Steinberg last November joined from Musk’s tunnel making enterprise the Boring Company to be head of strategic initiatives, shortly after Lindsay Searer joined from Pathstone to be head of fund strategies.

Netomi , the San Francisco-based startup building AI systems for enterprise customer service, said Thursday that it has raised $110 million in new funding in a round led by Accenture Ventures , with participation from Adobe Ventures , WndrCo , Silver Lake Waterman , NAVER Ventures , Metis Strategy and Fin Capital . Jeffrey Katzenberg, managing partner of WndrCo and co-founder of DreamWorks, has joined the company's board. The round builds on early backing from a roster of AI luminaries that includes OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman, Google DeepMind co-founder Demis Hassabis and Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman. On its face, the financing is another large AI round in a market still awash in capital. But the deal is more revealing than that. It suggests that a new line is being drawn inside enterprise AI — not between companies that have a chatbot and companies that do not, but between companies that can show AI works in the messy, brittle, heavily governed environments where large businesses actually operate, and those that still mostly shine in demos. The market around Netomi makes the stakes clear. Sierra , the AI agent startup led by former Salesforce co-CEO Bret Taylor, raised $350 million at a $10 billion valuation in September 2025 and has since made three acquisitions in 2026 alone. Decagon tripled its valuation to $4.5 billion in January 2026 with a $250 million Series D. Salesforce, ServiceNow and Intercom are all racing to embed AI agents into their existing platforms; Intercom's Fin AI agent reportedly crossed $100 million in annual recurring revenue at $0.99 per resolution. Gartner predicts that 40 percent of enterprise applications will include task-specific AI agents by the end of 2026, up from less than 5 percent in 2025. Against that backdrop, Netomi's $110 million round is not the largest in the category, but it may be the most strategically constructed. The combination of Accenture's enterprise consulting network, Adobe's dominance in digital experi...

A hedge fund manager focused on navigating the energy transition has generated a 39% return so far this year, after adopting a policy of ignoring US President Donald Trump ’s signals on the Iran war. Anaconda Invest SA , a boutique hedge fund based in Switzerland, has consistently opted to disregard comments from the White House suggesting a ceasefire may be imminent, according to Renaud Saleur , its founder and chief executive. As a result, he’s stayed long oil stocks based on a bet that chronic undersupply will support demand for years to come. The hedge fund manager’s returns outpaced gains in the S&P Global Oil Index, which is up 31% this year. “In the short term, whenever Trump opens his mouth, you can see the whole party moving as if the flow [of oil] is going to resume overnight,” he said in an interview. In reality, oil prices have stayed high as an actual truce remains elusive, he said. Read More: Oil Hits Wartime High on Report US Eyeing Iran Military Options Since the US and Israel attacked Iran on Feb. 28, Trump has often suggested an agreement to end the fighting may be around the corner, while adjusting the terms under which he’d be willing to accept a truce. Those mixed signals have repeatedly rocked markets, with March in particular proving a particularly tough month for many hedge funds and other investors. Saleur, who oversees $150 million at Anaconda, first made it known last month that he and his team were ignoring statements by the US president, arguing that to do otherwise would be unmanageable. Trump “changes opinion 10 times a day,” he said then. Anaconda, which markets itself as a firm looking for the best way to invest in the value chain of the global energy transition, doesn’t see the war as an opportunity to add exposure to clean tech for now, Saleur said. “Oil today is much more profitable than renewables,” he said. Saleur, whose career spans stints at Fidelity Investments and George Soros ’ Quantum fund, also said Shell Plc ’s acquisiti...

Gold is a popular hedge against political and economic turmoil because it is a globally recognized store of value. It's held by governments and even central banks all over the world, so investors feel safe parking their money in the precious metal when they see trouble on the horizon. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) is a cryptocurrency that many investors also view as a store of value because of its fixed supply and decentralized structure. Some investors have even likened it to a digital version of gold, but that thesis crumbled in 2025 when it significantly underperformed the shiny yellow metal. The first few months of 2026 have provided further evidence that one of these assets is a much better buy than the other in the face of geopolitical tensions, persistent inflation, and soaring government spending.

Sundry Photography/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Merck ( MRK ) was up around 5% premarket on Thursday after it beat top- and bottom-line estimates for Q1 and issued a narrowed outlook for 2026. The Rahway, New Jersey–based company adjusted its guidance for the year to between $65.8B and $67B in revenue, with the low-end narrower than the previous $65.5B. It expects adjusted EPS between $5.04 and $5.16, up from the previous outlook of $5-$5.15. By comparison, analysts expect normalized EPS of $5.11 on revenue of $66.49B. Global sales rose nearly 5% in Q1 to $16.3B, with Keytruda and Keytruda Qlex sales up 12% to $8B. Merck’s hypertension drug Winrevair, which it markets with Bristol Myers Squibb ( BMY ), also generated 88% sales growth to $525M in the quarter. Merck’s human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine franchise, Gardasil/Gardasil 9, continued to see sales decline, down 19% Y/Y in Q1 to $1.07B on weaker demand in China and lower sales in Japan. R&D expenses rose to $12.6B from $3.6B a year ago, primarily due to a $9B charge for the acquisition of Cidara, higher clinical development spending, and unfavorable impact of foreign exchange and restructuring costs. “During the first quarter, we continued to strengthen our pipeline with science-led business development, including our planned acquisition of Terns. We also achieved several important milestones, such as the FDA approval of IDVYNSO – which marks a new chapter in our longstanding commitment to people living with HIV. I am pleased with our progress and excited for what’s ahead, as we enter a particularly robust period of Phase 3 data readouts and deliver on the promise of our pipeline for patients,” CEO Robert Davis said . Weighing on the results, Seeking Alpha analyst Stephen Ayers said, " Merck’s first quarter report shows some early positive signs of its pivot ahead of the Keytruda patent cliff. Winrevair’s 88% year over year growth validates its diversification efforts. However, the acquisition driven GAAP...

hapabapa/iStock Editorial via Getty Images The Emerging Markets Debt team just returned from Spring 2026 IMF meetings in Washington, meeting with finance, banking, and political authorities from around the world. We’ve attended these meetings for decades and tend to take a meta-perspective on them. We’re looking for insights on our countries, of course, but the real value of the meetings is the sentiment of the trillions in AUM who attend, many who are old friends of ours. If we were hanging out in person with you, dear reader, we’d probably say something like the following: Meetings were packed, including tourists like big asset managers not focused on emerging markets (EM), but hearing that it is the new thing. Everyone was bearish on the US dollar (USD). We are bullish USD (vs. majors) as a result of this and more. (We own and like EMFX, but focused on exporters.) China was loved, but still unowned. Commodities exporters > importers. Below, we go into the more formally discussed takeaways. We start with three takeaways on the global economy and financial markets and then three elaborated takeaways on emerging markets. We then review some key observations on key emerging markets. The Setup - Top 3 Global Economy and Financial Risk Takeaways Economic uncertainty is certain. Let’s address some basics on the global economy and financial markets. The IMF published its key documents – the World Economic Outlook (WEO) and Global Financial Stability Report (GFSR) - in the midst of an outbreak of war in the Middle East. At these meetings, the IMF presented a “reference forecast” as opposed to its usual “baseline”, underlining economic and financial uncertainty. The IMF didn’t emphasize this fact, but this uncertainty can’t be under-emphasized. On topics ranging from a confident damage assessment in Qatar, to the economic implications for Thailand and the Philippines of resource constraints, uncertainty was the context. To be geeks about it, though, this reference forecast...

BalkansCat Molson Coors Beverage Company ( TAP ) rose in early trading on Thursday after topping estimates with its Q1 earnings report. Revenue was up 2.2% year over year to $2.35B to beat the consensus estimate by $20M. Financial volume fell 2.9% during the quarter, while price and sales mix were up 3.0%, and the company benefited from currency swings by 2.0%. Cost of goods sold was flat on a reported basis in Q1, impacted by higher cost of goods sold per hectoliter offset by lower financial volume. COGS per hectoliter increased 3.0% on a reported basis, primarily due to cost inflation related to material and manufacturing expenses. Molson Coors ( TAP ) CEO Rahul Goyal said the beer company delivered a solid start to the year while executing its strategy in a dynamic external environment with limited near-term visibility. "Under Horizon 2030, we said we'd take decisive action to strengthen our business, and we did just that in the first quarter, announcing the acquisition of Monaco Cocktails, closing a key portfolio gap through a disciplined approach, and expanding our share-repurchase program to reinforce confidence in our long-term value," he noted. Looking ahead, Goyal said Molson Coors ( TAP ) recognizes the external environment remains fluid and plans to approach the season's most important occasions with scale and impact across our global portfolio while continuing to focus on returning the company to sustained growth. Shares of Molson Coors ( TAP ) were up 6.4% in premarket trading.
