suken/iStock via Getty Images The stock market felt the blast of geopolitical tension last month as all three major domestic indexes all retreated. In March, the S&P 500 fell -5.1%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped -5.4%, and the NASDAQ slid -4.8%. While a -5% monthly drop grabs headlines, perspective and context are key. Since the start of 2023, the S&P 500 remains up approximately +70% (excluding dividends). Even after the recent -7% pullback from January’s record highs, the index is still trading +35% above its April 2025 lows. The Strait Has Created An Oil Gate The primary catalyst for the market volatility is the escalating conflict involving the U.S., Israel, and Iran. Beyond the tragic human cost, the economic “bomb” has been the disruption of the Strait of Hormuz, which handles the flow of roughly 20% of the world’s oil supply. Basic economics dictates that when supply is choked, prices skyrocket. We saw exactly that: WTI crude spiked roughly +54% over the last month, surging from $67 to a peak near $103 per barrel ( see chart below ). The “energy tax” from higher oil prices has introduced four major stressors for investors: Drained Consumer Wallets: Every extra dollar spent at the pump is a dollar not spent on groceries, healthcare, or retail. Since consumers disproportionately control the U.S. economy, cuts in discretionary spending on things like vacations, cars, and houses have a material negative impact on the nation’s financial output. Widespread Industrial Shock: High oil prices inflate costs for almost every physical industry, including airline fuel, trucking logistics, petroleum-based fertilizers, and construction inputs like asphalt and steel. Labor Market Cooling: The February jobs report was a wake-up call, showing a loss of -92,000 jobs (well below the expected gain of +130,000). While AI-driven displacement is a factor, the sudden spike in energy overhead has clearly contributed to employers pausing their hiring. Recessionary Red Flags:...

Robert Way/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Alibaba ( BABA ) released its new agentic AI-focused model called Qwen3.6-Plus. The Chinese tech giant said it has "drastically enhanced the model's agentic coding capabilities." The company noted that from front-end web development to complex, repository-level problem solving, Qwen3.6-Plus sets a new state-of-the-art standard. The new model is available through the company's Application Programming Interface, or API, via Alibaba Cloud Model Studio. Alibaba noted that Qwen3.6-Plus can be seamlessly integrated into popular third-party coding assistants, including OpenClaw, Claude Code, and Qwen Code, to streamline development workflows. The company added that Qwen3.6-Plus perceives the world with greater accuracy and sharper multimodal reasoning. "By directly addressing community feedback from the Qwen3.5-Plus deployment, this release offers a highly stable and reliable foundation for the developer ecosystem, delivering a truly transformative 'vibe coding' experience," the company noted. Alibaba said that the model delivers substantial breakthroughs in complex document understanding, physical world visual analysis, video reasoning, and visual coding. The model now excels at integrating cross-modal information to perform sophisticated analysis and decision-making. The company had released the Qwen3.5 series in February. Alibaba's AI models face tough competition in the Chinese market from models built by companies such as ByteDance ( BDNCE ), Baidu ( BIDU ), and DeepSeek ( DEEPSEEK ). Shares of Alibaba dipped about 2% premarket on Thursday.

Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo is taking an equity stake in IM8, co-founded by health-sciences firm Prenetics and former footballer David Beckham . IM8 sells nutritional supplements that aim at improving daily health routines. The company launched in December 2024 and says it reached $100 million in annualized revenue in 11 months. “I can open doors in markets and communities that IM8 might not reach on their own,” Antetokounmpo said. “But more than being a face, I want to be a voice inside the company too — asking the questions consumers would ask, making sure the product stays at the level it needs to be.” The financial details of the deal were not disclosed. Antetokounmpo’s investment continues a trend of athletes backing health companies. For example, last year, tennis star Serena Williams became both an investor and a celebrity ambassador for the weight loss company Ro . Other celebrity ambassadors for Ro include Tom Brady and former NBA player Charles Barkley. IM8 aims to become a major global supplement brand within the next three to five years, according to CEO and co-founder Danny Yeung in a phone interview. IM8’s athlete endorsements include the world’s top-ranked women’s tennis player, Aryna Sabalenka, and British F1 driver Ollie Bearman. Throughout his 13-year career, Antetokounmpo has earned $338 million, making him the 14th highest-paid player in NBA history, per Spotrac data. Beyond the court, he is a highly popular figure with over 35 million social media followers and has secured brand partnerships with major companies including Nike, Whatsapp, Google Pixel, JBL, and T-Mobile. Late last year amid falling crypto prices, Prenetics paused its strategy of buying Bitcoin for its corporate treasury, and concentrate its efforts on IM8. Prenetics’s launched its Bitcoin accumulation strategy in June, following a model pioneered by Michael Saylor’s Strategy Inc. Such digital-asset treasury firms, or DATs, raise capital to buy cryptocurrencies, a b...

Last April, the president unleashed a tidal wave of tariffs on ‘liberation day’. Analysts say the policy has failed, even by the Trump administration’s own terms Before Donald Trump declared “ liberation day ” on 2 April 2025 and shocked the world by raising import tariffs on nearly every country the US did business with, he had spent almost three months causing chaos in Washington. The wholesale slashing of government jobs under Doge (the “department of government efficiency”) and the defunding of US aid agencies had shown White House watchers that the US president was in a hurry to upset institutions he considered profligate or useless.
