Tesla’s new Roadster flipped through the air at last night’s reveal, but portfolio manager Adam Johnson says the real Tesla story is Optimus robots. The 8:30 hosts and Johnson debate Elon Musk’s timelines, robotaxi regulation and other long-dated bets like Joby Aviation and Aurora. Then: Fed Chair Kevin Warsh gives no guidance at the IMF, and the 10-year Treasury yield falls even after a hot PPI report. Have yields peaked? Johnson also weighs in on CoreWeave’s debt, and Reuters reports some investors see a $1.5 trillion Anthropic IPO instead of $2 trillion. Plus: what the 3.6% Social Security COLA for 2027 means for retirees and Medicare costs, Apple’s iPhone Duo selling out, Netflix’s new content chief and the new Elizabeth Holmes documentary.
