This is a big moment for computing and @NVIDIA. We’ve made the leap from building chips to creating a new investable asset class: AI factory infrastructure. Every company will be powered by it. Every country will build it. Thanks to Larry Fink of @BlackRock, Jon Gray of @blackstone, Bruce Flatt of @Brookfield, David Solomon of @GoldmanSachs, Jim Zelter of @apolloglobal, and Waldemar Szlezak of @KKR_Co for joining me in this historic partnership to build the infrastructure of the AI industrial revolution.

Back to the Yen: In an interview with Becky Quick and Joe Kernen on CNBC’s Squawk Box just now, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent outlined why the joint FX intervention extends well beyond narrow issues relating to Japan's currency market. Specifically, he highlighted: Regional Financial Stability: Protecting against currency underappreciation and instability across Asia; Strategic Signaling: Sending a clear message of broader, multi-faceted US support to an important strategic and military ally; and Policy Enabler: Serving as a step toward Tokyo's implementation of a comprehensive domestic policy approach. #economy #markets #yen #currency #fx @USTreasury @SecScottBessent @JoeSquawk @BeckyQuick @CNBC @SquawkCNBC

Priscilla Chan joined me in Aspen today to talk about the work BioHub is doing to fight disease. Big potential here. cnbc.com/2026/06/25/chan-zuc…

My good friend Jay Rosser (Boone Picken’s right-hand man) wrote a beautiful piece about a song, the World Cup and life lessons. It’s worth a read: urlwatch.com/urlwatch?b=aHR0…

Not at all. I had to leave to catch a flight for Aspen, where I’m interviewing Priscilla Chan about BioHub, and how she and Mark Zuckerberg are trying to cure diseases, large and small.
Was your absence a precondition of Kernen’s 1:1 with Bessent, @BeckyQuick?

A conversation I won't forget. Thank you @BeckyQuick for sitting down with me at the Berkshire meeting to discuss my GBM diagnosis — and for sharing so openly in return. piped.video/watch?v=TbQhb04P…

Over the long run, yes. But there is some serious friction in the short term.

Presumably there is a health ROI that could more than offset the drug costs if usage reduces obesity.

@BeckyQuick blaming GLP1s for school district budget shortfalls in absolutely comical. She’s so misinformed and confidently wrong it’s funny. GLP1s are such a small reason healthcare costs are rising. @andrewrsorkin knows what’s up.
