• Nvidia guided for roughly 70% revenue growth in fiscal 2028, backed by a 2M GPU Amazon order — reaffirming AI capex as the engine of the equity rally. • Meta agreed to an $18B settlement over children's social media addiction lawsuits — one of the largest tech settlements ever, setting a steep liability precedent for platforms. • The CIA director held direct talks with Russian intelligence counterparts in Moscow — rare back-channel contact that hints at quiet diplomacy on Ukraine with potential market ripple effects.
