🚨 WTF bond yields just surged to a 26-year high, hitting 2.78%. This isn’t just a Japan story — global markets are watching closely.

📉 Big Short Legend Michael Burry Shuts Down His Fund
Michael Burry — the real-life inspiration behind The Big Short — has unexpectedly announced the closure of his firm, Scion Asset Management, returning all capital to investors.

Silicon Valley Billionaires Fund Gene-Editing Startups Amid Global Ban on Designer Babies
Preventive, Backed by Sam Altman and Coinbase’s Brian Armstrong, Pushes CRISPR Embryo Editing Overseas In the United States and most countries, gene-edited babies are explicitly banned. Yet, a group of Silicon Valley tech billionaires and startups are working to make it a reality. One of the most watched among them is Preventive, a startup backed by Sam Altman and his husband, along with Brian Armstrong, CEO of the cryptocurrency platform Coinbase. Preventive’s goal is to use CRISPR and other gene-editing technologies at the embryo stage to correct genes that cause severe hereditary diseases—so children can be born free of them. Since the U.S. FDA isn’t even allowed to accept clinical trial applications for such work, Preventive is seeking countries with looser regulations, like the UAE, t
