Yesterday was a big one. American Express beat earnings estimates by 7%, acquired an AI startup that wants to kill the expense report, and reaffirmed it's going on offense in commercial fintech. Nasdaq quietly posted one of its best quarters ever — and nobody's talking about it. And the federal government just cracked open a 30-year credit scoring monopoly that touches every single American who wants to buy a home. We break all three down, what they mean for investors, and who wins and loses as the dust settles.
