source-notes

Politics

• AP drove the politics set: UK leadership change, U.S.-Iran talks, Hormuz shipping security, and U.S. court rulings.
• To avoid duplication, the Middle East story was split into diplomacy, sanctions, maritime security, and judicial pressure points.

Economy

• AP and WSJ covered housing, equities, yields, Treasuries, and mortgage pricing.
• The selection favors near-term decision points for investors and households rather than broad macro background.

Technology

• Barron’s, MarketWatch, People, and Business Insider supplied the tech set: quantum policy, AI memory, talent wars, price increases, and IPO expectations.
• The emphasis is on how supply constraints and labor movement feed into product plans and capital allocation.

Selection Notes

• Several near-duplicate Middle East headlines were collapsed into five distinct angles to keep the digest readable.
• Older AI IPO material was kept only when it still influenced current investor discussion; weaker speculation was dropped.
