hi, American here! an increased percentage of us saving money is actually not funny, we only do this when we're in extreme distress.
More Americans have saved up some money for emergencies. But maybe that’s less out of a desire to be more financially responsible than it is out of fear.

It feels like almost everyone, no matter their age or income, has some kind of angst about our economic circumstances right now.
Vibes are low. Despite that unemployment is low, wages are basically keeping up with inflation, and consumer spending is solid.
So what gives?

We may be in an AI bubble. And if we are … what happens to the index funds that we and so many people are invested in?

Is “passive investing” truly passive?
On a new episode of Mary in America, @adri_robertson, professor of business law at @UChicagoLaw, joins @mdc to challenge what we know about index funds, the S&P 500, and who’s really making these decisions for us.

Companies are monitoring our online behavior and changing their prices accordingly.
And it’s becoming a hot issue, across party lines.
Have consumers finally had enough?

Companies are tracking our online behavior, down to the way we move our cursor across their website.
And they’re changing their prices accordingly. Is there anything we can do about it?

Mining is dirty, dangerous, and difficult.
So for decades, America was happy to make money from mining … but not in our backyard.

Personal news: After nearly 8 years at NPR, I’m excited to share that I’m going to Bloomberg to help lead coverage of the prediction market industry. I’ll be joining their mighty crypto and prediction markets team, which has long been doing really impressive work for @business and @BW. I start just after midterms.

Electric vehicles have created huge demand for critical minerals.
But sales of EVs are down. So what will that mean?

At a time when Republicans and Democrats can rarely agree, there’s one thing bringing both sides together: critical minerals, obviously.

“Tax the rich” is a popular battlecry.
But if we only think of “the rich” as megayacht-havers like Elon Musk, we’re missing a big chunk of who’s actually rich in this country.
