This Warren Buffett Devotee Is Plowing Billions Into Bitcoin Capital Group has turned a $1 billion bet on Bitcoin into $6 billion! Mutual-fund giant Capital Group is known for a disciplined approach. One of its top portfolio managers can’t get enough bitcoin. Capital Group is a 94-year-old mutual-fund juggernaut known for its disciplined investing style. Mark Casey, a portfolio manager with 25 years of experience at the firm, quotes pioneering value-investor Benjamin Graham and says his “approach is very informed by Warren Buffett.” Capital Group is one of the oldest and largest “active” investment managers. The Los Angeles firm, whose American Funds have been a staple in brokerage accounts for nearly a century, manages $3 trillion. Each of its mutual funds has as many as 12 portfolio managers, like Casey, who independently manage parts of the funds. By contrast, Casey is dubious other cryptocurrencies will ever prove valuable, even as rivals pile into ether. That is why it is so surprising that Capital Group has placed a huge bet on bitcoin—one of the largest by a mainstream investment firm—and that Casey has emerged as one of most outspoken backers of Bitcoin in the so-called TradFi world.

Could The U.S. Dollar Lose Its Dominance? It Did Once Before!! The U.S. currency’s rise and fall from prominence in the early 20th century offers lessons for today’s political leaders. The U.S. dollar has experienced a significant decline, dropping about 11% in the first half of 2025, marking its worst performance in over 50 years. Factors contributing to this decline include rising U.S. interest rates, policy uncertainties, and a shift in global capital flows, which may continue to exert downward pressure on the dollar. The lessons for 2025 are clear. The dollar’s international primacy isn’t eternal. To be sustained, it has to be actively fostered and preserved. It must be supported by competent officials.

Now You Know U.S. Posts $345B August Deficit, Net Interest At 3rd Largest Outlay, Gold ($3,649.74) And BTC ($114,938.67) Rise 🎊🤩😎🍾🎉✅👍🏿 * US Collected $344B In Revenue Against $689B In Outlays, Leaving A $345B Monthly Deficit. * Net Interest Payments Reached $93B, Ranking Behind Only Medicare And Social Security. * Federal Reserve Expected To Cut Rates In September By 25Bps, But Rising Inflation Risks Could Push Yields Higher. * Costco Can't Keep Up With Customer Gold Demand!! The Federal Reserve is expected to cut rates by 25 basis points in September, but history suggests it wont be that straight forward. In September 2024, the Fed eased policy by 100bps only to see yields on the long end move sharply higher. The 30 year Treasury jumped from 3.9% to 5%, and today sits at 4.7%. With recent data pointing to an acceleration in inflation, the risk is that cutting rates could fuel further price pressures. That would force yields higher, increase debt servicing costs and potentially deepen the fiscal hole, creating a challenging backdrop for policymakers and markets alike. Markets are responding decisively. Gold has surged to new record highs, just below $3,670 per ounce, marking a year-to-date gain of almost 40%. Bitcoin is also gaining traction, climbing above $115,000 as investors search for alternatives in an environment where debt sustainability is becoming a bigger concern.

Now You Know What Do Mushrooms And Humans Have In Common? DNA Similarities Between Mushrooms And Humans Humans share about 50% of their DNA with mushrooms, indicating a common ancestor that existed over a billion years ago. This genetic similarity means that mushrooms are more closely related to humans and animals than to plants. Biological Characteristics: * Both humans and mushrooms are heterotrophs, meaning they obtain nutrients from organic matter rather than producing their own food like plants. * They store energy in the form of glycogen, while plants store it as starch. * The cell walls of fungi (including mushrooms) are made of chitin, similar to those of insects, contrasting with the cellulose found in plant cell walls.

Wealth Taxes And A $2 Trillion Fund: An Investor's Guide To Norway Norway’s $1.9 Trillion Sovereign Wealth Fund Benefits To Citizens * While citizens do not receive direct payouts, the fund contributes to the overall economy, funding public services such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure. * The wealth generated from the fund indirectly benefits all Norwegians by supporting a high standard of living and maintaining a robust welfare system. In summary, Norway’s sovereign wealth fund supports its citizens through government spending rather than direct financial distributions.

Arctic-power rivalry means Svalbard’s strategic importance is growing — but that can’t hide the Norwegian outpost’s identity crisis. On a wind-blasted plateau high above the most northerly town on Earth, arrays of white spherical domes stand like sentinels in the Arctic snow. Hidden from casual observers below in Longyearbyen, the main settlement on Svalbard, this is the world’s largest satellite ground station — by some way. The world is so dependent on satellite services these days,” said Ole Kokvik, the facility’s director. “People are not aware.” While largely unknown outside technical circles, Svalsat’s critical role in global communications is one measure of how strategically significant the Norwegian territory of Svalbard has become.

Bitcoin Community Leaders Join Longevity Movement Step Aside Longevity Bros. It’s Time For The Longevity Ladies Jennifer Garrison, who has been running a lab at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging, co-led a team last year that pitched the winning idea for a new XPrize competition. Another main goal, she says, is to get people to stop thinking about ovaries as simply important for reproduction—or of concern only to women. “They are a proxy for what is driving aging in everyone,” Garrison said. A growing number of female scientists, entrepreneurs and influencers are edging into a space long dominated by men. Their study of hormones and ovaries could unlock the key to a longer life for everyone. Jennifer Garrison, a 49-year-old neuroscientist, has been studying how aging changes the way the brain communicates with the rest of the body in a lab she runs in Novato, Calif. But on an afternoon in March, she walked across a glitzy Los Angeles stage to the pulsing soundtrack of Kelly Clarkson singing, “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” and greeted an audience of mainly high net-worth men gathered to hear about tech and longevity. “What if I told you that understanding female bodies could actually help every single person on the planet live healthier longer?” she asked.

Now You Know Herbert Hoover Like Trump Forces Census Bureau And Labor Department To Fudge Numbers 1930: Eventually, when the facts refused to obey President Herbert Hoover’s forecasts, he started to make them up. He frequently claimed in press conferences that employment was on the rise when clearly it was not. The Census Bureau and the Labor Department, which were responsible for data on unemployment, found themselves under constant pressure to fudge their numbers. One expert quit in disgust over attempts by the administration to fix the figures. Finally, even the chief of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Ethelbert Stewart was forced into retirement when he publicly disagreed with the administration’s official statements on unemployment. The stock market crash of 1929, which began on October 24, marked a significant economic downturn and was a major factor in the onset of the Great Depression. President Herbert Hoover, who was in office at the time, implemented various measures to stabilize the economy, but his efforts were often criticized and deemed insufficient as unemployment soared and economic conditions worsened.
