With the Fed likely keeping rates elevated, five new winners are emerging: cash holders earning 4% APY, banks capturing wider net interest margins, insurance companies deploying massive float, private equity sitting on $3.7 trillion in dry powder, and bond investors finally beating inflation. But there's a brutal flip side: Americans are drowning in $1.68 trillion in car loans with delinquencies at their highest since 1994. Then we shift to AI education, where The Rundown just overhauled their platform with daily video builds, live expert workshops, real-time office hours, $1,656 in bundled tool subscriptions, and an upcoming Community Workflow Exchange. The key insight: in a field moving this fast, static courses are obsolete. The winning model is daily updates, live interaction, and peer-to-peer knowledge sharing.","author_name":"Brian Swichkow"}
