Nilus's Articles

If you know anything about me, you know I’m concerned about the AI boom. However, there is one big, obvious, already-starting-to-happen benefit from AI, too. I’m talking about AI’s ability to help develop novel drugs and disease treatments at lightning speed. You can play the trend with the iShares US Pharmaceuticals ETF (IHE), writes Nilus Mattive, editor of Safe Money Report.  
Life would be a lot easier if all fats were unhealthy…it was always incorrect to wear anything white after Labor Day…and our monetary policymakers knew exactly what was happening and what they should do next. But as it turns out, things are a bit more complicated than we would like, writes Nilus Mattive, editor of Safe Money Report.
