Elon Musk has vowed to distribute a share of SpaceX to each child in the US, a multibillion-dollar pledge that adds to a string of sizable donations from the tech industry for the benefit of the American public. While Musk didn’t specify how he intends to make such a donation, he has agreed in principle to distribute the stock through the Trump Accounts initiative, according to a person familiar with the matter.

For a closer look, we speak with Bill Allison, Bloomberg News Campaign Finance Reporter.

A rebound in chipmakers buoyed the stock market Monday as dip buyers emerged on bets the artificial-intelligence investment boom will continue to support solid earnings. The advance in tech stocks lost steam last week as investors questioned the sustainability of AI spending, given the outlook for higher rates. This week’s earnings from Meta Platforms will provide a fresh proving ground for confidence in the AI trade, while SpaceX, Tesla, and Meta are also due to report. The industry is still set to account for nearly 70% of global earnings growth next year, according to Citigroup.

On today's episode:


Mandeep Singh, Bloomberg Intelligence Global Head of Technology
Dan Ives, Partner at Yorkville Ives & Co.
Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas & Ed Ludlow, Host of Bloomberg Tech

Katie Zacharia will no longer serve as President Donald Trump’s press secretary after spending less than a week on the job, thrusting the White House’s communications operation back into a state of chaos. Trump has previously cited Republicans' messaging as a pain point in recent remarks. Elsewhere, the Texas Senate race has turned into one of the most expensive in history. Elon Musk gave $158 million to the GOP’s main super PAC backing Senate candidates in September, according to the latest filings from the Federal Election Commission. Meantime, AI has emerged as a volatile issue in the midterm elections that will decide control of both houses of Congress, while Americans still grapple with affordability as conflict in the Middle East continues to weigh on energy prices. 

Henrietta Treyz, Director of Economic Policy as Veda Partners, examines the path to the November 3rd midterm election.
