Biden Bows to Border Wall, Trump Touts Triumph

In an unexpected plot twist, President Joe Biden pulls a U-turn by deciding to enhance the US-Mexico border wall, something he'd previously sworn off.

This caused former President Donald Trump to demand an apology, proclaim "I told you so" and stick his tongue out.

It seems that the leftover funds from Trump’s wall-building days are burning a hole in Biden's pocket, thus prompting him to add to the controversial structure.

Despite this, Biden insists the border wall is about as useful as a chocolate teapot.

But the drama doesn’t end there, Mexico’s President, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, labels it as a regressive move, while many Americans seem to agree that immigration is making life harder for them.

Meanwhile, the environmentalists are having a field day condemning the potential destruction of Texas' spectacular biomes.

It's clear that walls are to leaders what social media is to teens - can't live with them, can't live without them.

Binance Fiction: From ICO Flop to Billionaire's Playground

Dive right into the twisted epic of Binance, a crypto company, which managed to flip its Initial Coin Offering (ICO) disaster into a billion-dollar jackpot.

CEO Changpeng Zhao may have painted a rosy picture of Binance's ICO as a "monumental" success, but blockchain data and a Forbes investigation provide a subplot of blunders in this 'rags to riches' tale.

Binance, now the world's largest crypto exchange, began its journey with an ICO that was more of a belly flop than a spectacular dive.

This flop, however, magically turned into an opportunity to quietly fill their coffers with precious crypto gold.

It's not all sunshine and roses for our valiant Binance, though.

With lawsuits flying in from left, right, and center and accusations of fraud and deception, the embattled company is having its own version of a midlife crisis - crypto style.

Even its own cryptocurrency, the BNB token, recently lost a whopping 68% of its value.

Fed's Roller Coaster Ride: A Comedy of High-Yields

The Federal Reserve is flirting with disaster by passively allowing long-term interest rates to sky-rocket to their highest levels since 2007

Over the past month, 10-year Treasury yields crawled up by over half a percentile to surpass an astounding 4.7%. Cue the dramatic gasp!

This uptick of numbers heightens the chances of a financial catastrophe, reminiscent of the time when regional banks tumbled like dominoes last March.

Longer term, it hints at sabotaging the economy by cranking up borrowing expenses for consumers and companies.

It seems our dear Federal Reserve may be playing Jenga with the economy, stacking rates higher and higher. Let's hope they don't pull the wrong block!

Microchip Moguls vs. The Biden Brigade

In the latest clash of the silicon titans, Nvidia, Intel and Qualcomm are putting up their virtual dukes against Biden's China crackdown

Just a year ago, the Biden team made its first seismic move restricting the sale of semiconductors - the lifeblood of contemporary weaponry - to China.

Now, America's premier chip champs are pushing back, issuing a warning that slicing sales to China will leave their businesses in disarray and slash the dream of revamping semiconductor factories at home.

Since July, these chip challengers have been on a campaign, questioning the White House's national security logic and courting leaders across Washington.

In the immortal words of famed geek Billy Shakespeare “To sell or not to sell [to China], that is the question”
