P.M. Edition for Feb. 26. As new data centers to power artificial intelligence pop up across the U.S., tech leaders and politicians have promised a hiring bonanza.

Journal manufacturing and metals reporter Bob Tita discusses who is for and against the new tariffs, and the impact they would have on the industry. Plus, reporter Katherine Clarke talks about the newest category of the ultra-rich: the superbillionaire. Alex Ossola hosts. Sign up for the WSJ's free What's News newsletter.
