Anduril could pull off something epic...
The Great European Break-Up is coming Europe is at peak pessimism, and the auto industry is in decline Within the wreckage lie divisions with massive growth: power electronics, precision manufacturing, and dual-use hardware Carve them out + reposition them for defense and AI
GLPs will be bigger than AI. Healthier people. Lower healthcare costs. Increased wealth. Confidence boost. Men and women absolutely crushing life at work, dating, taking risks. Birthing boom. Just saw data that GLPs lead to higher birthrates. More chads. Higher function. Reduce inflammation, excess weight. Clarity of thought, freedom from food. Less divisiveness. Health plus confidence plus function leads to society flourishing. We have been talking about the “obesity pandemic” for years. Now we have the cure and it's actually pretty affordable. Humanity is undefeated. Societal upgrade. (Btw, phase 2: widespread peptides.)
The Future of Private Equity Is Permanent Capital Serial acquirers with indefinite investment horizons will dominate.
"The world needs another private equity fund like a hole in the head." That is the founder of private equity talking. Henry Kravis, at Columbia Business School, on why he would never start a PE fund today. China alone has more than 5,000 PE funds. The model he invented is now

Spaces that proactively respond before people get sick. Schools, hospitals, workplaces, and public buildings that better protect the people inside. Cleaner indoor air is the next frontier in public health. ARPA-H is leading the way. @poppy_health @virginia_tech @MayoClinic #SafeTraces

America’s mental health crisis demands more than awareness. It calls for action. That’s why ARPA-H is investing $139 million in EVIDENT to accelerate the breakthroughs that will usher in the next era of mental health care. This week in Madison, EVIDENT’s 23 teams came together to launch the first two years of this urgent work. This week also marked the culmination of a busy Mental Health Awareness Month for ARPA-H, in which we amplified the voices of the veterans, advocates, and innovators who are driving EVIDENT forward. Real progress is powered both by bold action and the people it is meant to serve. Listen to their stories here: youtube.com/watch?v=IbuNa4…
