The easiest way to understand crypto used to be to look at Bitcoin . When the world’s largest cryptocurrency rose, money flooded into startups, venture funds, exchanges and thousands of speculative tokens. When it crashed, businesses disappeared, funding dried up and activity slowed across the industry. Bitcoin wasn’t merely the biggest digital asset. It was the center of gravity for the entire crypto economy. Now, some of the industry’s fastest-growing businesses are moving according to a different logic. The coin is down sharply. On Friday, it fell below $60,000, extending a decline that has erased around half its value from last year’s peak. The selloff has been fueled by money leaving exchange-traded funds , the AI boom competing for retail attention and growing questions about whether the large corporate buyers that helped drive the previous rally can continue accumulating. Much of the altcoin market is suffering an even deeper downturn that predates Bitcoin’s latest slide. The market value of altcoins, tokens other than Bitcoin, peaked at $431 billion in November of 2021, and is currently languishing around $170 billion, according to TradingView. Entire ecosystems that once promised to reshape finance are shrinking, consolidating or quietly disappearing. Yet at the same time, some of the industry’s most commercially important businesses are growing faster than ever. Read more: There Are Millions of Crypto Tokens. Almost None Have Any Value Stablecoins are becoming part of the global payments system , adding up to about $390 billion in annual transactions, per McKinsey & Co. and Artemis Analytics. Wall Street firms are racing to tokenize stocks, bonds and money-market funds. Banks that once dismissed blockchain technology are experimenting with it. Payment companies are integrating digital dollars. Prediction markets are attracting mainstream users. The digital infrastructure is spreading even as many of the assets built on top of it struggle. “The Bitcoin pric...

Critics had previously accused Magyar’s predecessor, nationalist premier Viktor Orban, of providing high salaries in an attempt to placate opposition deputies.

undefined undefined/iStock via Getty Images Since my last Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. ( AMD ) analysis , the stock has gained 30% in price. I think it's fair to say that we are likely near the first peak in the AI multiboom. I decided to exit pure semiconductor names recently, citing overvaluation and speculation. That said, I maintained AI exposure and have applied trailing stops to AI value names that have now turned into speculative excess. I recommend doing something similar if you own semiconductor stocks, and I would be very careful about buying semiconductor stocks right now, as they are de facto presenting extremely overvalued, speculative, and excessive euphoria. There are exceptions, potentially Nvidia ( NVDA ), though it's too correlated to the AI complex to call that for certain. AMD is de facto overvalued. Data by YCharts AMD has a forward P/E non-GAAP ratio of 65 and a TTM P/E GAAP ratio of 155. The only valuation metric that growth and momentum investors have to stand on is the forward PEG ratio, which sits with a -19% discount to the sector. Growth is good, undeniably, but the core concern that makes the valuation tenuous is the durability of this growth. Those bidding up AMD's price are essentially saying, "AI-era hypergrowth compounding will last for decades and arguably be exponential, without interruption or cycles." We know this reasoning is happening en masse because of the massive multiple expansion we are currently witnessing. Perhaps more wisely, you should be expecting multiboom or multiwave growth. In other words, cycles within a supercycle. In reality, only about one year of pricing future EPS growth makes sense. If you understand these dynamics, you can see the future that the market is underwriting. Investors believe that AI semiconductors are creating a new autonomous utopia, and that it will all happen very fast indeed. This is not so different from some of the speculative statements that were witnessed during the dawn of the Interne...

My friends and I were keen to meet regularly, but couldn’t agree on what to read. Then we found an excellent solution There comes a point in every friendship ecosystem when someone suggests starting a book group. It’s a beautiful moment, the platonic modern equivalent of the 1950s “shall we go steady?” It means you want to see one another at least every six weeks, preferably on a fixed day in the calendar, so that when someone tries to pinch that day for another, less interesting thing, you can in perpetuity reply: “I can’t, I have book group.” Since nobody ever disbands a book group, it is adult‑speak for “friends for ever”, which, if you stare at it hard enough, is almost tearjerking. So, anyway, this poignant moment arrived with my newish friends R and S, then immediately hit the road hump that none of us wanted to read a book. Nothing against books, guys, it’s just I am generally reading something weird that I wouldn’t want to impose on you. S suggested a poem group; R nixed that. I said maybe we could read Poems on the Underground while we were on the underground on our way to the poem group. That was nixed, too. Continue reading...

Readers respond to an article on how early intensive rehabilitation after a stroke or head injury is crucial for recovery Rather like Ian Sample himself trying to read Orlando Swayne’s book, I was nervous reading his article, braced for half-digested truths or oversimplifications on neurotherapy ( The doctor who mends broken brains: why there is room for hope after a stroke or head injury, 3 June ). But he paints an accurate picture of the way brains retain neuroplasticity and the reality of the postcode lottery around therapy and rehabilitation services. I am a speech and language therapist specialising in stroke and neurorehabilitation, and I can attest to what he and Dr Swayne state in the article – that sadly, for some people, the damage caused by neurotrauma cannot be recovered from, but for others, the vital neuroplasticity continues for months and, in some people I have seen, years at a time.
