- SpaceX is expected to go public at one of the richest IPO valuations in market history, with retail investors set to receive unusual access through platforms like Robinhood and Charles Schwab. CNBC spoke with five retail traders and investors about why they requested SpaceX IPO shares despite concerns over valuation, volatility, Elon Musk, Starlink, AI infrastructure, launch services and whether public-market buyers could become exit liquidity for early investors.

- Why Wall Street Has Never Seen A Company Like SpaceX

- Description
- SpaceX is heading toward public markets with a valuation that could put it among the most valuable companies on Earth. But is it a rocket company, a satellite internet business, a defense contractor, an AI infrastructure play — or something new entirely?
CNBC's Deirdre Bosa breaks down the “strategic tech premium” — companies like SpaceX may be valued not just on growth, but on national importance, government dependency and their role as private infrastructure. The catch: the same indispensability that creates the premium may eventually invite regulation, price controls or government oversight.

- Description
- Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. showed up at the Nasdaq stock exchange in New York in late 2025 to celebrate a new business partnership with a little-known publicly traded company, then called Alt5 Sigma, to give investors easier access to a cryptocurrency backed by the Trump family. Less than 10 months later, the company has warned investors it may not be able to stay in business much longer. Its share price has fallen more than 90%, and a rebranding hasn’t revived investor interest. If the company, now called AI Financial Corp., can’t sustainably raise its share price out of penny-stock levels in the next 15 trading days, it faces the prospect of being delisted by the Nasdaq. CNBC’s Matt Peterson reports.

- Pandemic era auto production pullbacks have left a hole in the used car market that totals about 7.5 to 8 million vehicles, according to estimates from Cox Automotive. Incentives still are below pre-pandemic levels, and leasing rates are still low–especially for some popular vehicle types. That era also changed automaker behavior in ways that will continue to keep prices high and supply low for all customers--even those shopping for the cheapest used cars.

- Description
- There's a new challenger to Nvidia that says its chip can run AI inference at ten times the speed of a standalone GPU. The new chip from D-Matrix is called Corsair, and it's now in volume production with commitments from hyperscalers, neoclouds and frontier AI labs. In an exclusive interview with CNBC, CEO Sid Shath explains how Corsair bypasses the DRAM shortage by relying on SRAM directly on the chip, and how that tight integration means Corsair can transfer data using five times less energy. It’s a novel approach to memory that’s led to huge gains for other chip startups in recent months. Cerebras’ blockbuster $95 billion IPO in May landed it among tech’s largest ever debuts, and Groq received $20 billion from Nvidia in the AI giant’s largest purchase ever in December. Now CNBC asks whether D-Matrix could be next.

- Description
- Venture capital is buying its way into the AI transformation that enterprise software hasn't delivered. Instead of selling AI tools to companies, venture firms are buying legacy companies outright and rebuilding them around AI from the inside. The bet puts VCs on offense and leaves traditional private equity, which spent the last cycle buying enterprise software at peak prices, on defense.
The strategy is known in Silicon Valley as the AI rollup. Over the past six months it has crossed into public markets twice: General Catalyst and Trian's $7.6 billion take-private of Janus Henderson (JHG) in December, and Long Lake Management's $6.3 billion agreement in May to take American Express Global Business Travel (GBTG) private at a 65 percent premium.

- Why More Americans Are Unemployed For Longer

- Description
- Over 1.8 million Americans have been classified as “long-term” unemployed in a given month in 2026, meaning they have been out of work for at least 27 weeks. That accounts for about a quarter of all unemployed Americans. Long-term unemployment has seen a sharp rise in the U.S., up about 55% from 2023 and 45% from 2019. The rising amount of long-term unemployed people is a sign of what’s been dubbed the “low-hire, low-fire” environment. With companies reluctant to increase headcounts amid higher interest rates and the rise of artificial intelligence, it becomes more difficult and can take longer for people to find a job.

- Description
- For two years, companies bought AI one way: pick the most powerful model and run everything through it. That era is ending.
A new discipline called model routing is taking hold, sending hard tasks to expensive frontier models and easy ones to cheaper, faster alternatives. It can cut AI bills dramatically. But it also means OpenAI and Anthropic stop getting paid for every task, which complicates the IPO story both are built on.
Deirdre Bosa talks to Scott Wu, co-founder and CEO of Cognition (maker of the coding agent Devin), about his new engineering value guarantee, why Devin routes across models automatically, and what it actually takes to measure AI's return. Then Cisco President and Chief Product Officer Jeetu Patel on the cost shock hitting the enterprise, why his own company blew through its AI budget, and whether the frontier labs can hold their pricing power.

- U.S. Confronts The Hidden Risk Of Chinese Circuit Boards Fundamental To AI Chips
- Runtime

- Date posted
- 10 days ago
- Description
- Printed circuit boards sit underneath nearly every chip, a quiet but crucial piece of the booming AI market. But they’re also a growing problem for the U.S., because nearly all AI circuit boards, for Nvidia, Google, Apple and others, are made in China. This creates supply chain vulnerabilities and opportunities for adversaries to sneak through malicious components. Amid ongoing wars in Iran and Ukraine, PCB demand and prices have never been higher. But national security risks mean the military can only source PCBs from the dwindling number of domestic factories. Now, new legislation would incentivize building and buying American-made circuit boards. CNBC visited TTM, the largest U.S. circuit board maker, to see how PCBs are made and find out how the U.S. is trying to catch up with China.

Heated battles are unfolding in the courtroom between electric air taxi companies like Joby, Archer and Vertical, threatening to sidetrack certification aspirations and investor appetite. Shares of major air taxi makers have dropped this year as sentiment sours. eVTOL makers have long pushed back certification timelines, but the Trump administration's pilot program is providing the support to get them across the finish line.
The 2026 box office is projected to reach $10 billion for the first time since 2019, and Gen Z is fueling this moviegoing surge. Gen Z, those born between 1999 and 2012, are seeing more movies and spending more money than other generations. Although inflation remains high in May 2026, movies are still cheaper than many other forms of entertainment and are viewed as an affordable social outing for young audiences.

Japanese companies now own 33 homebuilders that operate in the U.S. Once the most recent deals are closed, they will have close to 6% of U.S. market share.

The rise has happened as gas prices have climbed 40% since April 2025, according to AAA. Also, an increasing number of EV owners shopping for a new car are going right back for another EV. But it is primarily affecting customers already in the market for a new car. High car prices and interest rates are still keeping many shoppers away from dealer lots, even if gas prices are high. That could change if fuel costs stay elevated or rise further.

- Description
- CNBC In Other News brings you stories that missed the spotlight.
AI-driven layoffs have become a defining theme across the tech industry over the past year, with some sources estimating more than 112,000 U.S. jobs being lost to AI since the start of 2025. While major companies like HP and Amazon have often framed these cuts as a way to boost efficiency and shift focus toward new technologies, investors themselves don't appear convinced that these layoffs will improve companies' bottom lines in the long run.
Software companies like Twilio and Datadog are starting to prove their case as winners in artificial intelligence. Investors say the performance from Datadog and Twilio underscores how companies that can deploy AI-native solutions while also articulating their path to monetization can ease disruption fears, for now. CNBC's Seema Moody explains.

- Cerebras: What You Need To Know About The Nvidia Competitor After Blockbuster IPO
- Runtime

- Date posted

- Description
- Cerebras made a monster debut on Thursday that not only placed it among tech’s biggest-ever IPOs, but was the clearest signal yet of unstoppable demand for chips to power AI, as tech giants scramble to the costly, sold-out graphics processing units made by Nvidia. Cerebras closed its first day trading on Wall Street with a stunning market cap just below $100 billion, then traded lower on Friday, sinking 10%. Founded in Silicon Valley in 2016, Cerebras makes a different type of chip than the classic Nvidia GPU, and it's the size of a dinner plate. It’s a category of chips known as custom ASICs that are gaining traction because they excel at inference, which is crucial as agentic AI takes off. Custom ASICs are also made in-house by Google, Amazon, Meta and Microsoft, and Nvidia - thanks to its $20 billion purchase of Groq in December. Now, the Cerebras’ IPO paves the way for other ASIC start-ups such as SambaNova, Rebellions and D-Matrix. CNBC's Katie Tarasov explains everything yo...

- Why Nvidia And Corning’s Fiber Deal Could Change The Game For The AI Boom
- Runtime
- 3:09
- Date posted
- 1 month ago
- Description
- Nvidia and Corning just announced a massive, multiyear deal to expand U.S. manufacturing for new optical fiber technology, likely to flip the script for AI data center efficiency. As a part of the partnership, Corning will build three new factories in North Carolina and Texas entirely devoted to products for Nvidia, creating 3,000 new jobs. And while the companies didn't share many specifics, it's likely the deal is worth tens of billions of dollars. This could be the big deal many analysts have been waiting for — the debut of a new technology called co-packaged optics. It could eventually mean Nvidia replaces the 5,000 copper cables, two miles worth, inside its rack-scale systems like Vera Rubin, with tiny glass fibers made by Corning, something that, until now, has never been accomplished at scale. Co-packaged optics would vastly reduce the energy needs of an AI data center, because glass is far more energy efficient than copper. CNBC's Katie Tarasov explains what this deal could m...
