Good morning, Brew Daily Show. I'm Neil Freiman. And I'm Toby Howell. Today, a small Chinese lab may have upended the world of AI as we know it.
Then Trump threatened the first trade war of his presidency, but not against the country you'd expect. It's Monday, January 27th. Let's ride.
Alrighty, the Super Bowl is set. My Philadelphia Eagles will take on the Kansas City Chiefs two Sundays from now in a rematch from 2023. The Chiefs won that game and then they won the title again last year. So this year they're seeking to become the first team in NFL history to pull off a Super Bowl three-peat. And only the Eagles and Saquon Barkley can stop them.
Neil, I am not afraid to say it. The Chiefs are the most unlikable team in NFL history. You got the refs blatantly stealing games from them. You got Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelsey flopping left and right. You have the fact that they are so good and they won't stop winning games. So, needless to say, I am going to start pronouncing it Wooter, frequenting Wawa's. Yeah,
and getting a Saquon back tattoo because let's go, birds. You are our only hope. I love what I hear, Toby. Go off. Go off and go, birds. Now a word from our sponsor, Yahoo Finance. Neil, permission to tell everyone listening about my favorite Yahoo Finance feature. Permission granted, Toby. Well, this is an ad for Yahoo Finance. Thank you, Neil.
My favorite Yahoo Finance feature is this subtle design decision where they show how a stock is trading if it is mentioned in a headline. For instance, take the headline, Wall Street bets Tesla's 2025 sales will miss Elon Musk's target. Just below that headline, you can see how Tesla is doing in pre-market trading. It's down 1.4%.
I see why you like it. You get context from the headline and the reaction of the market all in one glance.
