Dear reader.
This week I came across a current study, which evaluated the business figures for 3619 companies via AI 18,046. Result: The headline and the first paragraphs of the PR reports are much more positive than the rest of the message, let alone the real business course-which has a positive effect on the share price in the short term. In times of short attention, the study concludes that investors would be deceived in this way. A bit sobering: Even in the AI age, the simple tricks still seem to work.
These are our top topics this week:
The cannabis coup of the pharmaceutical company Clemens Fischer
Amy Webb about life in a AI society
The Beau of Wall Street on the stock exchange
The pharmaceutical contractor and doctor Clemens Fischer (49) became known with over -the -counter medicines such as the irritable bowel medication Kijimea – and very rich. But he campaigned aggressively, for example with television spots in front of the “Tagesschau”. Now he ventures into the cannabis shop with his widely rapid (and rapidly growing) futrue group. He invests hundreds of millions in a pain reliever that is supposed to represent an alternative to opioids. It is not yet approved, but Fischer is stirring the advertising drum, as my colleague Sarah Heuberger reports, using the Storymachine of the former “Bild” editor-in-chief Kai Diekmann (60). She spoke to Fischer, experienced current sales figures – and came across various inconsistencies: The cannabis coup of the Kijimea king

Tech event of the week is of course: the release of the Switch 2! The pre -orders at Nintendo already exceeded expectations. In the night of Thursday, long snakes were formed in front of the shops, several gamers are said to have appeared at MediaMarkt instead of in the office. In Germany the console is as good as sold out – It is traded on the net almost for twice the handsome retail price of 469.99 euros.
Temu crashes, at least in the USA. As a result of the tightened customs rules, the Chinese cheap e-commerce giant had reduced its advertising by 95 percent in May. Immediate episode: In Apple’s App Store, the Temu app, previously long in the top three, sank in 132nd and,, How to prove new data

Study of the week: robots are only people
The fact that the people in Japan are particularly polite is not new (except maybe when it comes to getting a switch 2). Now a study by the LMU Munich and the Waseda University in Tokyo shows: even robots opposite Do not make a difference.
While the test subjects in the USA quickly tried to overprint the AI, they remained friendly in Japan. Small thought experiment: How would you talk to a robot?
On Wall Street, Dan Ives, Analyst at Wedbush Securities, is known for three things: 1) his squeaky-colored Sakkos and shirts, 2) his pithy-pointed sayings, 3) his beefy assessment of the development of the tech values. “New All-Time Highs for Tech Are On The Horizon”, is a Typiches Ives quote from the past few days, or: “This is a Golden Age of Ai.” In one of his favorite shares Tesla, he currently considers a doubling of the stock market value to $ 2 trillion, and even 6 trillion for Darling Nvidia. The ridge between forecast and sermon becomes narrow in these spheres. Consequently, he no longer wants to maintain his celebrity status only with appearances on US breakfast television-but also with his own investment product. The Beau of Wall Street has been offering its followers on Main Street a tailor -made ETF since this week: the Dan Ives ai 30 ETF. In addition to the Love-Shares Tesla and Nvidia, the development of the rest of the “Magnificent Seven”, the defense tech star Palantir, the Chinese ski Baidu and Alibaba and 20 other AI companies. The new ETF is traded under the Ives stock exchange – that fits the pink jacket.
