Tariffs Blocked by Court, U.S. Steel’s Golden Shares & Neuralink’s Funding Round
02 Jun 2025
Scott and Ed discuss the trade court’s ruling that Trump lacked the authority to impose most tariffs, Trump Media’s plan to buy bitcoin and Nvidia’s first quarter earnings. Then they discuss Nippon Steel’s acquisition of U.S. Steel, arguing there was no strong reason to block the deal in the first place and debating when government intervention in business is justified. Finally, they explore Neuralink’s latest funding round, acknowledging the technology’s potential while cautioning that widespread adoption may take longer than expected.
