- Mass protests challenge Macron as French police use tear gas and water cannons
More than 100,000 people marched in Paris on Saturday over school funding and rising living costs, with Paris police estimating turnout at 110,000. As the march neared its end, police used tear gas in Lyon, Clermont-Ferrand, Strasbourg and Marseille, and water cannons in Nice and Nantes. The Paris prosecutor's office said 64 people were arrested and 40 were placed in police custody, including six minors. The unrest is testing President Emmanuel Macron's authority in the final months of his presidency before the May election, as the far-right National Rally accuses the government of failing to protect the public. Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez acknowledged that police lost control in some cities and offered to resign, but Macron refused.
- Paris protests: More than 400,000 protest across France, challenging Macron as clashes erupt
Clashes broke out in Paris as a mass march ended Saturday, with the Interior Ministry counting 410,000 protesters nationwide and the CGT union nearly 800,000, over school funding and living costs. Police used tear gas and water cannons near the endpoint at Porte de Vincennes, and similar clashes were reported in Lyon, Marseille, Strasbourg, Nice and Nantes. The Paris prosecutor's office said 64 people were arrested and 40 placed in custody, including minors, mostly on suspected weapons offenses or preparing violence. The movement, which began as a protest over staff shortages at one high school, has spread to students and workers seeking higher wages and pensions, testing Macron's authority before May's vote for his successor. Education Ministry figures show 15.4 million teaching hours were lost in 2024-25, 7.5% of scheduled time.

- Is the AI Bubble About to Burst? Plus, Apple Bets on Doorbells.
The Motley Fool podcast discusses whether the AI boom is becoming a bubble and what could cause it to burst. Ray Dalio is cited as saying an AI bubble could burst in the coming period, while the host sees timing as the key question and says debt is still manageable for now. The episode notes that SpaceX is seeking another $40 billion in debt and analyzes Google's multibillion-dollar nuclear power deal with Constellation Energy and the large energy demands of data centers. It closes by discussing Apple's push into smart-home products, including doorbells, cameras and a new home hub.
- SpaceX’s $1 Trillion Revenue Ambition: Can Elon Musk Deliver?
The Motley Fool Hidden Gems Investing podcast discusses Netflix's slowing growth: revenue still rose at a double-digit pace and margins came in somewhat better than guided, but ad sales slowed and the stock fell only about 3% during the session. The hosts see the quarter as a sign Netflix has entered a mature phase, and note the company has parted ways with its content chief. Full-year revenue growth is expected to ease to 13% in 2026 from 16% in 2025, and shares trade below 20 times earnings. The episode also lists topics including SpaceX's AI transformation, Musk's trillion-dollar ambitions, AI infrastructure risks and a Tesla-SpaceX merger, but the available transcript focuses mainly on Netflix.
- 2 Warren Buffett Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stocks I'd Buy Right Now and Never Sell
The article argues that Apple and Alphabet, two holdings in Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, suit long-term investing because their businesses do not depend entirely on AI succeeding. Apple has a loyal customer base and a Services segment that generates recurring revenue, and although Berkshire has reduced its position over time, Apple remains its largest holding. Alphabet, which owns Google and YouTube, is using its Gemini AI models as a new growth driver across Search, Workspace, Android and Google Cloud, while its core businesses are already strong on their own. According to the author, the biggest risk is that investors overestimate how much profit individual companies will earn from AI.
- Should You Ignore the SpaceX Hype and Buy Rocket Lab Instead?
Space stocks surged after SpaceX's June IPO, but since then SpaceX shares have swung between $105 and $225 and Rocket Lab has fallen 65% from its June peak near $150. SpaceX's launch services revenue reached $1.8 billion, up 6%, while Starlink grew 69% to $5.2 billion with 13.6 million consumer broadband subscribers, and its AI segment, now called Super Intelligence, reached $7.6 billion, helped by an $84.5 billion compute leasing deal with Anthropic. Rocket Lab focuses purely on the space economy, relying on its Electron rocket, which can carry up to 660 pounds to low Earth orbit, and holds a backlog of nearly $2.4 billion, but its Neutron rocket has been delayed to 2027. SpaceX's $2.2 trillion market cap compares with $30 billion for Rocket Lab, and the two trade at about 70 and 40 times trailing sales. The author says SpaceX suits investors seeking broad exposure to AI and communications, while Rocket Lab is the purer aerospace option, though further Neutron delays could weigh on its shares in the near term.
- Gulf Nation Sends Good News to the World
Aramco is looking to raise the Petroline pipeline's capacity from about 7 million to 10 million barrels per day to reduce reliance on the Strait of Hormuz, which has been nearly blocked since the conflict began, and Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman said the expansion would take two to three years. Before the war, the route carried about 2 million barrels per day, and Aramco's first-quarter profit rose 25% after the pipeline reached its maximum of 7 million barrels per day. The pipeline has been hit by drones several times, and Houthi forces control the Bab al-Mandab area, keeping risks high. Professor Gilbert Metcalf of MIT Sloan said that reaching 10 million barrels per day would add about 2% to global supply, so the effect on prices may be limited. Kpler data show Hormuz exports in September averaged just under 9 million barrels per day, about 44% of February levels, although US Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Gulf oil flows had recovered 80-90%.
