Lucy Guo Snaps Up $30 Million L.A. Mansion—Weeks After Becoming the World's Youngest Self-Made Woman Billionaire

Tech mogul Lucy Guo, the world's youngest self-made woman billionaire, has invested a sizable portion of her enormous wealth into a sprawling new $30 million mansion in Los Angeles' iconic Bird Streets neighborhood. The 30-year-old, who is a native of California, secured quite the impressive deal on the home, which was completed in 2024, when it first hit the market for $43 million. Perched on a hillside that overlooks the Sunset Strip, the home is the epitome of modern luxury, having been outfitted with a wide array of very high-tech amenities, including motorized glass walls that retract to open up the home to the stunning exterior, "drought-tolerant landscaping," and climate-controlled wine rooms. The home also features a top-of-the-line smart system, as well as an eco-conscious solar system to ensure that residents can enjoy an extraordinary level of comfort even in the event of a disaster. Guo, who founded the social media company Passes, has not yet commented on her purchase of the extraordinary property—which was listed by Ginger Glass and Craig Lotzof of Compass and was first reported on by the Wall Street Journal. Records show that Guo was represented by socialite Paris Hilton's brother, Barron Hilton, and his wife, Tessa Hilton, in the deal, which comes 18 months after the home was first put on the market. "Designed by the iconic Vantage Design Group, this architectural marvel of concrete and steel is a showpiece of style, sophistication, and luxury," the listing stated. "Offering breathtaking panoramic views, this estate is a seamless blend of cutting-edge design, opulent indoor-outdoor living, and top-tier amenities, including two elevators." As well as the top-of-the-line tech, the property also features five bedrooms, eight bathrooms, and several open-plan living spaces, including a "high-tech family and media room" that boasts a bar and an immersive LED media wall. The choice to invest in a home with such impressive tech integration will come as no surprise to those familiar with Guo's impressive résumé, which saw her launching a career in the industry at the tender age of 21. Guo, who splits her time between Los Angeles—where her AI platform, Passes, is based—and Miami—where she purchased her first home in late 2021, first began drawing interest from the tech world in 2016, when she co-founded the artificial intelligence company Scale AI alongside Alexandr Wang. Though Guo left the company in 2018 over a "difference of opinion" with Wang, she retained the majority of her stake in the startup, a stake that is now worth a veritable fortune thanks to Scale AI's new valuation. Guo also made plenty of money since leaving the company, after launching her own company, Passes, in 2022, only to snap up a jaw-dropping $50 million from investors in the first two years alone. Her holding in Passes, combined with her "other assets," leave her with a net worth of $1.25 billion, according to Forbes—a fortune that saw her overtake pop star Taylor Swift as the world's youngest self-made woman billionaire in June of this year. While amassing that impressive fortune, Guo has also built up an impressive bicoastal property portfolio, with homes in Florida and Los Angeles—albeit both pale in comparison to her latest acquisition. Guo picked up her Miami abode in 2021 for $6.7 million. The condo sprawls across 4,727 square feet and comes with four bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms. The luxury building features a two-car garage, an indoor resort-style pool, a fitness center, a movie theater, a rooftop helipad, and views of the beach and Miami's skyline. The tower was designed by Zaha Hadid and left Guo in awe in 2021. At the time of purchase, she took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to gush: 'I am so *beyond* excited to close on my Miami home today ... haven't had an address in years. What a work of art #zahahadid." Three years later, she snapped up the keys to a stunning five-bedroom, six-bathroom modern farmhouse in Los Angeles. She purchased the property in 2024 for $4.2 million. The abode, which was built in 2018, sprawls across 4,643 square feet and comes with a two-car garage and a pool. It offers several cozy fireplaces, French doors, a bar, a walk-in closet, and a bathroom with dual vanities and a soaking tub. Outside, there is a courtyard covered in lush greenery, a lounging space, and access to a rooftop deck. It's unclear whether Guo will hold on to this home now that she's made a new property purchase in the city, or whether she will opt to put it on the market. Guo is extremely proud of her growing property portfolio, having told Fortune in 2023, "I have a swanky apartment in Miami and a house in L.A. which is five minutes away from my office." When it comes to commuting to work, Guo opts for "an electric skateboard" or is driven by her "assistant." And it comes as no surprise that she has risen to the top of the tech world because she works so hard, she tends to eat at her desk, and only orders food from Uber Eats. Guo also confessed that she never takes a "real vacation" due to how demanding her job is. "I've never really had a real vacation. Even when I'm on vacation, I'm working at least eight hours per day," she said. When she isn't working or lounging around one of her chic properties, she can be spotted getting her sweat on at Barry's Bootcamp, a workout class she attends twice a day. The remainder of her little free time is spent dancing at music festivals like Coachella, which she attended in April after spending two weeks learning how to DJ. Forbes unveiled its 10th Anniversary List of America's Richest Self-Made Women on June 4, revealing the 100 women who have amassed an eye-watering fortune through their work in tech, entertainment, and manufacturing. The co-founder of ABC Supply, Diane Hendricks, garnered the No. 1 spot for the country's richest self-made millionaire for the eighth year in a row, with a net worth of $22.3 billion. Other notable names include , who boasts a $3.1 billion net worth and is 13th on the list, and , who has a $1.7 billion net worth and comes in at 19th. Meanwhile, Swift—who previously held the youngest self-made billionaire role—is ranked 21st and has a net worth of $1.6 billion. Solve the daily Crossword

Nvidia (NVDA) Hails NVTS as Secret Weapon in AI Arms Race

Nvidia (NVDA), the California-based chip giant, has rapidly cemented its position as the undisputed leader in AI semiconductors. Meanwhile, little-known Navitas Semiconductor Corporation (NVTS) appears well-placed to support and enhance that dominance. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Nvidia has already partnered with Navitas to make the most of this technological breakthrough. Last May, Nvidia signed a strategic partnership with Navitas to develop its 800V high-voltage DC architecture to support its future rack-scale systems, including recently announced Rubin Ultra GPUs. As a pioneer in Gallium Nitride (GaN) power ICs, Navitas is poised to help Nvidia slash energy costs—a critical advantage as running high-performance GPUs demands massive power. I'm Bullish on Navitas and Nvidia, as I believe their partnership will prove to be pivotal in driving an energy-efficient future for AI. Nvidia's Power Problem Creates Opportunities To understand my bullish outlook on both Nvidia and Navitas, it's essential to first grasp the scale of Nvidia's looming power challenge. According to its latest SEC filings, major hyperscalers are installing 1,000 NVL72 racks each week—equating to an astonishing 72,000 Blackwell GPUs. In its fiscal Q1 2026 report (late May), Nvidia revealed nearly 100 AI 'factories' were active during the quarter ended April 27, with GPU deployments in these facilities doubling year-over-year. Management also warned that sustaining this growth will require hundreds of gigawatts of power in the coming years. In fact, Nvidia now lists limited access to efficient energy resources as a key risk factor in its quarterly filings—one that could materially impact future financial performance. Industry data reinforces this concern: the International Energy Agency projects that global electricity demand from data centers, AI, and crypto could approach 1,000 TWh, roughly the current annual consumption of Japan. Without cost-effective, scalable energy solutions, this power bottleneck could become a serious brake on Nvidia's long-term AI chip demand. Navitas Offers a Solution to Nvidia's Power Needs The power gap is central to Nvidia's future—and Navitas is uniquely positioned to help close it. Gallium Nitride (GaN), Navitas' specialty, is a next-generation semiconductor material with fundamentally superior energy efficiency compared to the traditional silicon that dominates today's chips. Research shows GaN devices deliver higher power density, operate at cooler temperatures, and enable data center power platforms up to 40% smaller than silicon-based solutions. Recognizing this advantage, Nvidia formed a strategic partnership with Navitas in May to co-develop its 800V high-voltage DC architecture for next-generation rack-scale systems, including the recently announced Rubin Ultra GPUs. Navitas estimates that this collaboration could boost Nvidia's power efficiency by roughly 5%—a gain that translates into millions of gigawatt-hours saved at Nvidia's current scale. Beyond efficiency, the GaN-based systems are expected to slash data center maintenance costs by 70% and cut copper wiring needs by 45%, further enhancing Nvidia's operational edge. Navitas is More Than Just an Nvidia Partner Navitas's growth story is further reinforced by its aggressive diversification strategy. Since announcing its partnership with Nvidia in May, Navitas' stock has more than tripled—but the momentum extends well beyond AI. In Q1 2025, the EV, solar, and industrial sectors generated roughly 60% of company revenue, up from just 15% a year earlier—clear evidence of a rapidly broadening revenue base. Recent wins include major EV design contracts with industry leaders such as BYD (BYDDF), where Navitas' GaN and Silicon Carbide solutions enable 3x faster charging. In solar, Navitas secured a partnership with Enphase Energy (ENPH), tapping into a fast-growing renewable energy market driven by the global push for scalable, efficient climate solutions. The company is also making inroads into consumer electronics, targeting high-volume manufacturers like Dell Technologies (DELL). Together, these moves significantly de-risk the Navitas investment case by reducing dependence on any single market while positioning the company at the heart of multiple high-growth industries. Is Navitas Semiconductor a Buy, Sell, or Hold? On Wall Street, NVTS stock carries a Moderate Buy consensus rating based on three Buy, three Hold, and one Sell ratings over the past three months. NVTS's average stock price target of $7.07 implies approximately 6% upside potential over the next twelve months. While current analyst estimates suggest Navitas is fairly valued, I believe its ongoing partnership with Nvidia has the potential to shift sentiment meaningfully once the tangible financial benefits of that collaboration become evident. With its advanced GaN and SiC power semiconductors, Navitas is uniquely positioned to tackle the AI industry's most pressing challenge—power consumption—and, in doing so, emerge as a critical enabler of large-scale AI adoption. Navitas Semiconductor is well-positioned to support Nvidia's continued AI dominance by addressing one of its most critical scaling challenges—power efficiency. Early traction from the Nvidia partnership could open doors to additional deals with other major chipmakers, setting the stage for sustained, accelerated growth. While the stock trades at a premium, I remain Bullish, as Navitas has the potential to meaningfully disrupt the power semiconductor market.

Musk says he plans to sue Apple for not featuring X or Grok among its top apps

Billionaire SpaceX, Tesla and X owner Elon Musk says he plans to sue Apple for not featuring X and its Grok artificial intelligence chatbot app in its top recommended apps in its App Store. Musk posted the comments on X late Monday, saying, 'Hey @Apple App Store, why do you refuse to put either X or Grok in your 'Must Have' section when X is the #1 news app in the world and Grok is #5 among all apps? Are you playing politics? What gives? Inquiring minds want to know.' Grok is owned by Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI. Musk went on to say that 'Apple is behaving in a manner that makes it impossible for any AI company besides OpenAI to reach #1 in the App Store, which is an unequivocal antitrust violation. xAI will take immediate legal action.' He gave no further details. There was no immediate comment from Apple, which has faced various allegations of antitrust violations in recent years. A federal judge recently found that Apple violated a court injunction in an antitrust case filed by Fortnite maker Epic Games. Regulators of the 27-nation European Union fined Apple 500 million euros in April for breaking competition rules by preventing app makers from pointing users to cheaper options outside its App Store. Last year, the EU fined the U.S. tech giant nearly $2 billion for unfairly favoring its own music streaming service by forbidding rivals like Spotify from telling users how they could pay for cheaper subscriptions outside of iPhone apps. As of early Tuesday, the top app in Apple's App Store was TikTok, followed by Tinder, Duolingo, YouTube and Bumble. Open AI's ChatGPT was ranked 7th.
