Jim Cramer says SK Hynix could be one of the best ways to play the AI boom.

The CNBC host called the memory chip giant a "buy" for investors who can stomach the volatility.

His comments come as SK Hynix began trading on Nasdaq following its $26.5B U.S. listing.

The global AI race has a geography problem.

Africa and the Caribbean represent two of the fastest-growing AI markets in the world, both expanding at close to 28% annually. And yet the overwhelming majority of AI investment continues to flow to Silicon Valley, Beijing, and a handful of Asian tech hubs.

Last week, I sat down with @LilyDash, Founder of @FutureCaribb and Co-Founder of ACTAI Advisors, to understand why that gap exists and what it will take to close it.

Here is what stood out from our conversation:

🔹 Both regions account for less than 2% of global AI investment.
🔹 The blue economy alone could generate hundreds of millions in new revenue.
🔹 The winners of Future Caribbean's Global Agentic AI Buildathon will pitch live at the New York Stock Exchange in September.

🚨NEWS: The National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE) has endorsed the Clarity Act, becoming the first major law enforcement organization to publicly support the legislation, which includes the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA).

In a letter to Senate leaders, @noblenatl says the bill “contains several provisions that would provide law enforcement with meaningful new capabilities while preserving longstanding criminal enforcement authorities.”

Responding to concerns raised by other law enforcement groups, NOBLE adds that the legislation “does not alter the longstanding federal criminal authorities that investigators and prosecutors rely upon every day,” including statutes governing money laundering and unlicensed money transmitting businesses.

Excited to share that my latest piece on $QCOM was just featured on Benzinga Expert Ideas 🗞️

For years, Wall Street had a simple story on Qualcomm, a phone chip company: slowing growth, best days behind it.

Then 2026 happened. TikTok's parent company signed an AI chip deal with them. Mark Zuckerberg flew in personally to their investor event.

Seven major Wall Street firms scrambled to raise their price targets, some nearly doubling what they had forecast just months earlier. So what exactly changed?

In my latest piece for @Benzinga, I break down the ByteDance deal that shocked the market, the new AI chip taking aim at Nvidia, the $40 billion revenue target that turned heads, and why the stock still looks reasonably priced despite all the excitement.

@NaorisProtocol Thank you!

[Michael Adeleke @MA_Reports]

Quantum computing is gradually becoming a commercial industry, and with it comes one of the most dangerous milestones the financial world has yet to fully reckon with.

I sat down with David Holtzman, Executive Chairman of @NaorisProtocol, a former IBM Chief Scientist, NSA codebreaker, and DNS designer, to talk about Q-Day. We talked about what it means for banks, governments, and global financial systems, and why the threat is closer than most people think.

Key takeaways from our conversation:

~Q-Day, the day quantum computers can break RSA encryption, is 3 to 4 years away
~Governments have been harvesting encrypted data for over a decade, waiting to decrypt it
~Countries that don't act will become financial pariahs in a quantum-powered world.

Alphabet is now part of the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

The move marks another big win for Big Tech, but investors are still debating whether its AI investments will pay off.

In my latest for @CoinCodex, I covered what this update could mean for the stock.

Last week for Benzinga, I covered Micron's blockbuster earnings and why they could be another sign that the AI boom is just getting started.

The company beat expectations, revenue more than quadrupled year over year, and customers have now committed $22 billion to secure future chip supply.

The dollar's reserve status was not an accident. It was the result of American leadership. That same leadership is required right now in digital assets.
