It's going to be a great week! Tech revenues are rising, the EV wars are on (and oh my!), and venture capital feels like it's on cloud nine. All of this adds up to one packed stock episode.
Today, we delve into the latest market news, including upcoming financial results, IPOs, and the impact (if any) of Bitcoin's halving will have on the value of cryptocurrencies.
We also had to discuss two new venture capital funds. Seraphim's new vehicle focused on space and TLcom Capital's new fund focused on Africa. From there, we talked about EVs and how recent price cuts are impacting the value of EV companies.
Finally, we drilled down and searched the vector database for emerging startup clusters. In other words, regular databases are garbage when it comes to the kinds of queries needed for AI, whereas vector search is very good in this area. Join startups, venture capital, and the biggest technology companies. May the startup win.
