Wren explained the strong likelihood of the U.S. slipping into a recession and his expectation that companies will fail to deliver on profit expectations thanks to thinner margins as interest rates remain high. Earnings for S&amp;P companies declined by 6.8% year-over-year in the most recent quarter, according to recent Morgan Stanley research.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Tangent<\/h2>\n<p>Tesla, which hosted its annual meeting with shareholders after Tuesday\u2019s market close, posted its second-largest daily stock gain since March, tacking on $25 billion in market value after it said it will advertise its vehicle for the first time and its CEO Elon Musk vowed to remain in charge for the foreseeable future. Musk, who drew the ire of several Jewish civil rights groups this week for touting conspiracies mirroring antisemitic tropes about billionaire George Soros, added the most to his net worth of anybody on earth Wednesday with a $5 billion bump.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Forbes Valuations<\/h2>\n<p>Musk holds the second-largest fortune in the world at $181 billion, while Cohen is owner of the planet\u2019s 93rd-largest wealth pile at $17.5 billion.

A slew of technology companies have revealed their own AI services, but benefitting the most are mega-cap tech stocks like Nvidia, Meta, Alphabet and Amazon, four of the 20 best-performing stocks on the S&amp;P year-to-date.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\"><\/h2>\n<p>\u2018AI Is The New Electricity\u2019: Bank Of America Picks 20 Stocks To Cash In On ChatGPT Hype (<em>Forbes<\/em>)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/dereksaul\/2023\/05\/17\/dow-jumps-400-points-as-this-billionaire-investor-says-stock-market-has-room-to-grow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Topline Stocks gained Wednesday thanks in part to another artificial intelligence-powered lift, as optimism emanating from the nascent technology keeps driving equities higher against a suboptimal macroeconomic backdrop.
