Z scaler I will report after closing. I’m long on the stock and it seems to be in the middle of a bearish-to-bullish reversal, but the premium (options) is not long. With an implied move of 12.2% versus the long-term average of 11.3%, options are not cheap. I would like to see a effectively flat premium with bullish tilt/sentiment (aka “delta”).

The smart glasses industry has long been a tormented dream of Silicon Valley. The premise is appealing enough. What if people no longer had to stare at their phones all day to enjoy the benefits of mobile computing, but instead could simply wear a lightweight computing device on their face? Science fiction fans (with a strong background in the tech industry) will understand this vision perfectly. But for much of the past decade, the industry resembled a financial black hole into which huge investments were sunk, with little or no return. “Everyone is losing money,” said Chi Xu, founder and…

Last week, after Google announced a major overhaul of search, I overheard a woman on the phone saying she was switching to DuckDuckGo because “you can opt out of using AI.” “Google is no longer Google,” she said. It seems others had the same idea. At I/O, Google’s annual developer conference, the company said the traditional list of blue links will be replaced with AI agents that answer queries, perform tasks, and run background monitoring agents. The backlash was fierce. Some argue that this will kill the open web, while others share concerns that AI summaries will surface inaccurate responses…

The event comes in a transformative year for Apple, as longtime CEO Tim Cook prepares to take over the reins in September and a major AI partnership with Alphabet Inc.’s Google begins. The question is, can Apple finally make a truly conversational Siri a…
