Trump Media & Technology Group Corp.

Since Trump returned to the White House, the fortunes of his family members have been growing by leaps and bounds: according to Bloomberg estimates, in the first week of September alone it grew by 20% thanks to crypto-assets and the actions of his sons. In response to criticism, the businessman's offspring say that all coincidences are coincidental, just genes and upbringing do not allow them to sit still. Surprising but true: entrepreneurial genes are strong not only in the president's heirs, but also in their wives and husbands. Oninvest presents a series of articles about the Trump family businesses. The hero of the first episode is Eric Trump

Alcoa Corporation

The American company Alcoa - one of the largest aluminum producers in the world - has already given investors bad news several times since the beginning of this year. But so far, the company has managed to maintain growth in its key financial indicators. Should we bet on it in 2026?

In mid-August, two events shook the world of artificial intelligence. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman <a href="https://www.theverge.com/ai-artificial-intelligence/759965/sam-altman-openai-ai-bubble-interview">recognized</a> that the situation on the market had signs of an investment bubble. Shortly thereafter, a sensational report from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) came out, <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/08/18/mit-report-95-percent-generative-ai-pilots-at-companies-failing-cfo/">claiming</a> that 95% of attempts to implement AI in companies had failed. What is this - the beginning of the collapse of a multi-billion dollar industry and a repeat of the history of the dot-com <a href="https://oninvest.com/article/kakoe-budusee-ii-prorocit-diva-interneta-meri-miker-ne-uvidevsaa-puzyr-dotkomov">bubble</a>? More likely, the beginning of a new technology's collision with reality.

Cambricon Technologies Corporation Limited

In the short history of the Chinese stock market, there have already been two bubbles - in 2007 and 2015. In less than five recent months, it has risen by only 25% (even less than, for example, the U.S. market), but there are clear signs of speculative frenzy. The authorities are concerned about a possible repetition of the situation, when the rapid rise will turn into an equally impressive collapse.
