About this episode
This episode discusses SpaceX's IPO and its AI ambitions, the AI arms race, and economic uncertainties.
Title: SpaceX and Jobs Take Center Stage In this Week in Review, Dave Spano and Dr. Brian Jacobsen dig into SpaceX’s headline-grabbing IPO—and why the bigger story may be its bold (and unproven) AI ambitions. They also explore the intensifying AI arms race, from trillion-dollar valuations to Nvidia’s push into everyday tech, and what it means when even standout earnings fail to impress. Plus, a look at shifting tariffs and a two-speed economy, where strong manufacturing momentum meets growing uncertainty beneath the surface. Also, a segment on structuring student loan plans.
