Employees can now use a platform that lets them see whether their jobs are likely to be taken over by artificial intelligence.

Banking giant Morgan Stanley believes that the S&P 500 correction is about to end sooner than most investors expect. In a new episode of the bank’s Thoughts on the Market podcast, Morgan Stanley CIO Mike Wilson says this year’s correction holds similarities to last year’s Liberation Day capitulation when investors worried about tariffs, immigration controls and other factors. This year, Wilson says the concerns now revolve around AI disruption and rising oil prices. “Recall that the major indices started to accelerate lower in February and early March. The concern at that time was centered around tariffs. But like today, equity…
The president of Yardeni Research warns that geopolitical tensions could develop into a shock that hurts everyday Americans.

According to Yardeni, America could experience “food shock” as farmers struggle to get their hands on the necessary materials during planting season. “The problem is, the longer this lasts, the more it’s not only going to impact oil prices, but also food prices, because a lot of the materials that are necessary for…
Bank of America says it is within the realm of possibility for oil to climb to a staggering price of $200 a barrel if the Strait of Hormuz remains a hostile place for a long period of time.

The International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) says thieves are using AI and AI agents to drain more money from victims. In its 2026 INTERPOL Global Financial Fraud Threat Assessment, the organization warns that criminals across the globe are collaborating and sharing tech expertise to scale operations. According to INTERPOL, one technology that is being widely used by criminals today is artificial intelligence. “AI-enhanced fraud is 4.5 times more profitable than traditional methods. ‘Agentic AI’ systems can autonomously plan and execute complete fraud campaigns – from reconnaissance to ransom demands.” Thieves are also using AI to lure people into fake romance…
