How Defense Contractors Make Billions Off Missile Sales
Missile sales are the number two defense export in the U.S. and production is dominated by a handful of companies such as Raytheon, Boeing and Lockheed Martin. As technology advances, will expensive missiles and hypersonic glide weapons dominate the market, or could start-ups and cheaper technology change the missile economy?

How The U.S. Defense Business Makes Billions Off Missile Sales

CNBC’s Michael Wayland takes a first look at electric vehicle startup Slate Auto’s modular $25,000 pick up trucks. The cars are affordable and basic, with features that buyers can customize. That includes turning the truck into an SUV. The vehicles had more than 150,000 refundable reservations before their release, despite waning consumer demand in EVs in the U.S. The company is about to find out if the truck can disrupt the market.

CNBC Takes A First Look At Slate Auto’s $25,000 Modular Cars
source
AI data centers are driving unprecedented demand for electricity and putting renewed pressure on America’s power grid to modernize its equipment and develop greener, more efficient sources of power. Google, Meta, Microsoft and Amazon are all spending millions of dollars on local infrastructure upgrades and companies like SpaceXAI are even building off-grid power plants to power their data centers.
Google says its planned 780-megawatt data center in Pine Island, Minnesota, could offer a model for powering the AI boom. In a proposed agreement with Xcel Energy, Google says it will support 1,900 megawatts of new wind, solar and battery capacity, while minimum payments and exit fees are intended to protect local ratepayers if demand falls short.
CNBC examines whether projects like Pine Island can make the grid cleaner without shifting costs to existing customers, why some energy experts argue that smaller data centers could make better use of infrastructure already in place, and how utilities’ financial incentives can complicate efforts to build less.

The Race To Power AI Is Reshaping America’s Electric Grid

A leak by Indian supplier Tata Electronics, purportedly of the yet-to-be-released iPhone 18 Pro models, has become marketing gold for the Chinese government. The Communist Party paper, The Global Times, is using the leak – caused by a cyberattack – as a cautionary tale for Apple and other American companies that are in the process of diversifying their supply chains away from China. CNBC’s Eunice Yoon reports.
00:58 Correction: The location tag should be Beijing, China.

China’s Swagger After India’s iPhone 18 Leak
source
Unstoppable demand for AI is leading to a capacity crunch on factory lines at the world’s leading chip manufacturer, Taiwan Semiconductor. And it could put a chokehold on AI’s ability to scale. Analysts tell CNBC that Nvidia, Apple, Broadcom, AMD and others are locked in an “extremely fierce” competition to get their GPUs, CPUs and custom AI chips made at TSMC. Capacity can’t come online fast enough, despite TSMC’s rush to build new fabs in Taiwan, Japan and Arizona, where has expanded investment to $265 billion. The strain has made one man at TSMC “the most popular person on the planet,” as chip start-ups and big name CEOs visit Taiwan to ask him for wafer allocation. It’s also created a rich opportunity for Intel, as customers look to the long-struggling foundry arm of the U.S. chip manufacturer for a second source.

It makes no sense in a military point of view to sell weapons to another country as they can reverse engineer the technology and all that research and development spent by local tax dollars are basically copied for a fraction of the cost. It’s all about money for the people in charge.

A small correction.. Raytheon is THE largest missile manufacturer in the world. From the venerable Tomahawk and Patriot missiles all the way to the Standard missile family on the US Navy's ships and the air to air AMRAAM missile. Next big step in missile technology is of course the hypersonics game.. Hundreds of billions of $ are on the table…

You knuckle-heads. Corporate profits belong to Apple, Google, Amazon, MSFT — they are in the DIGITAL SPACE. By law, DoD contractors can't retain Fat Profits. They are under continuous audit. Should any contract be crazy profitable, the excess has to be promptly rebated back to Congress. The high expense for DoD contractors is WAGES. That's where all of the money is going. That's also why such contractors spread the action across the nation — hopefully making it Congressionally impossible to stop the gravy train — and the gravy is going out as WAGES to voters in every Congressional district.
Even more strangely: American taxpayers actually don't pay for the DoD's outlays. We 'export' the tab to our trading partners. This reality is something that THEY fully understand, Putin fully understands — and the CCP fully understands. It's driving them crazy!
How can that be? It's the direct consequence of the Bretton Woods agreement of 1944. The US government runs deficits to fund the DoD — and the rest of the planet has to eat such deficits by importing US dollars that cost the US government nothing to produce — by the billion. You will find, if you're as smart as you think you are, that the American government has been financing its DoD outlays for half-a-century by this mechanism. It's also why Germany, et. al are bitter about Trump et. al complaining about Europe not paying their fair share to defend the West. But they ARE. They've actually exported their security to the Americans… and the Americans have exported their security expense to Europe, Japan — and every other nation that has to use the US dollar as its Reserve Currency… a need than never goes away. Moscow and Beijing are TRYING rather disparately to stop this funding mechanism. Their project has been going on for decades. Their current hope is that digital currencies will finally do the trick. The latter, functionally, are synthetic GOLD. Yes, the Commies are going to fall back to the Gold Standard — to get rid of Bretton Woods — which was established to, largely, get rid of the Gold Standard — deemed to the primary financial cause of WWII.
If any of this is news to you — you've got some reading to do.
