Macron Offers to Aid in Greenland's Security Amid Trump Threats
(Bloomberg) -- President Emmanuel Macron said France would be available to conduct joint exercises to improve security in Greenland, the Danish territory coveted by US President Donald Trump. Shuttered NY College Has Alumni Fighting Over Its Future As Part of a $45 Billion Push, ICE Prepares for a Vast Expansion of Detention Space Do World's Fairs Still Matter? NYC Renters Brace for Price Hikes After Broker-Fee Ban As American Architects Gather in Boston, Retrofits Are All the Rage 'Greenland is subject to preying ambitions,' Macron told reporters in Nuuk, Greenland, Sunday alongside Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. 'Everyone thinks — in France and in the EU — that Greenland shall neither be sold nor taken.' The US president has cited national security as a reason to acquire the semi-autonomous island and criticized Denmark for not investing enough in its defense of the territory, which has a strategic location straddling the North Atlantic and the Arctic. It's already home to a US air base and radar station used to detect missile threats and monitor space. Trump recently said he would '100%' get the island — rekindling an idea he first floated in 2019. Macron and Trump are set to cross paths at a meeting of Group of Seven leaders in Canada, which begins Monday. There, leaders are expected to discuss the conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, but also to issue a statement about critical minerals, which are believed to exist in vast quantities in Greenland. Macron said he would bring the issue up with Trump at the G-7 meeting. Macron, who often casts himself as a defender of European sovereignty, is joining a chorus of leaders on the continent who have opposed Trump's ambitions on island. Trump's comments on acquiring the island have been criticized by Greenlanders and Danes and also by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. While Merz didn't travel with Macron on Sunday, he met Danish leader Mette Frederiksen earlier this week in Berlin and said he stood by the side of Denmark. Macron has been seeking to capitalize on his long relationship with his US counterpart, while also criticizing some of Trump's policies. Earlier this year, Macron urged US-based scientists hit by cost cuts to relocate to Europe. Last week, he said Greenland, the Arctic and deep seas were 'not for sale' — a veiled jab at Trump, whose administration is promoting deep sea mining in international waters. 'The situation in Greenland is clearly a wakeup call for all Europeans,' said Macron, who also suggested opening a French consulate on the territory. 'You are not alone.'

The growing case for rate cuts, federal cuts won't gut health care and other commentary
Fed watch: The Growing Case for Rate Cuts 'President Trump's tariffs present the Federal Reserve with two conflicting challenges,' observes The Wall Street Journal's Greg Ip. Tariffs 'raise prices, which weakens the case for cutting interest rates' but also 'sap confidence and demand, which strengthens the case.' So far, 'the Fed has focused on the first risk, keeping its interest rate target between 4.25% and 4.5% since December. It might soon have to pivot to the second': 'Evidence is accumulating that inflation, despite tariffs, has been milder than feared, while the labor market might be deteriorating.' Unemployment 'has risen every month since January, by a quarter percentage point in all.' A 'restrictive stance' on interest rates 'make sense so long as inflation is all the Fed has to worry about. It no longer is.' Eye on NY: Federal Cuts Won't Gut Health Care 'New York's health-care industry stands to lose billions of dollars in federal funding' under the GOP federal budget bill, notes the Empire Center's Bill Hammond, yet that wouldn't 'be enough to 'decimate' or 'gut' New York's health care system,' as Gov. Hochul has claimed. 'The House budget would reduce federal health-care aid by $10.1 billion while obliging the state to spend an additional $3.3 billion,' a state Health Department analysis finds — yet federal aid 'would still be higher than it was in 2023.' Cut the state's Medicaid enrollment by 1.2 million, and New York 'would still be providing free coverage to about 36 percent of its population' — still '12 points higher than the national average.' Republican: Don't Let Judges Help China Steal Tech The Patent Trial and Appeal Board is 'effectively allowing a Chinese firm to keep stealing an American semiconductor technology,' warns Rep. Nathaniel Moran at The Hill. The judges on the board 'just sided with Innoscience, a Chinese firm' accused of 'stealing patented technology and selling knockoff chips' from Cali company Efficient Power Conversion. 'After a 16-month investigation,' the US International Trade Commission 'found that Innoscience had indeed stolen the technology.' Yet Innoscience separately the patent board to invalidate Efficient Power Conversion's patent. 'The Trump administration has the authority to overrule' the board's 'dangerous decision' and 'should do so immediately,' but also 'implement broader reforms' to stop 'rogue administrative judges from helping Chinese companies pilfer US intellectual property in the future.' Democrats: San Francisco Shows the Way 'In the most famously liberal city in America, voters are no longer satisfied with symbolism or purity tests — they want results,' cheer Nancy Tung & Eric Kingsbury at Real Clear Politics. San Francisco voters 'still support Democratic principles, but they are demanding leaders who deliver.' In elections since 2022 through the rise of 'outsider' Mayor Daniel Lurie, voters are supporting a 'New Pragmatism' that's 'reshaping' how the Democratic Party 'governs and earns trust.' In other parts of the country, when 'voters asked for outcomes,' the party 'gave them process and vibes.' To win back voters, Dems 'need to be practical, not performative.' New Pragmatism is about 'solving problems, using power, and being honest about what is broken and what can be fixed.' If Democrats 'want to win again, they should start paying attention' to what voters want. Media watch: Don't Follow the Money? The media can 'no longer be trusted to tell anything like the truth,' blasts the Issues & Insights editorial board. 'The FBI is investigating the financial ties behind' the LA riots, but 'the mainstream press could care less,' fearing the facts might 'implicate Democrats or upset the left's agenda.' The Post has reported how the 'Party for Socialism and Liberation, which has ties to the Chinese Communist Party, is said to be behind some of the protests,' but other outlets remain mute. 'If you want to uncover corruption, find out where the money is coming from and where it is going. At least it used to be. Today? Not so much.' — Compiled by The Post Editorial Board

IonQ, Inc. (IONQ): NVIDIA CEO Is Giving A Green Light, Says Jim Cramer
We recently published a list of . In this article, we are going to take a look at where IonQ, Inc. (NYSE:IONQ) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discusses. IonQ, Inc. (NYSE:IONQ) is one of the few pure-play American quantum computing hardware companies. The firm was a regular feature of Cramer's appearances earlier this year in January. Back then, the quantum computing sector was basking in the glory of Google's announcement that its quantum computer had significantly outperformed a supercomputer. Investors started piling into quantum computing stocks, but Cramer remained a skeptic. Back then, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang knocked the wind out of the quantum computing bubble after he remarked that the technology wasn't mature. Yet, in a turn of events in late May, IonQ, Inc. (NYSE:IONQ)'s shares surged by 22% after its CEO commented in an interview that his firm could be the 'NVIDIA' of quantum computing. Cramer's comments revolved around NVIDIA's CEO changing tack on quantum computing: 'There are four quantum stocks that we have to follow. Some of my people that I work with were very, I think that they were, probably concerned that I went out and said, look we ought to be looking at . . .we ought to be looking at, you know the ones that people talk about. But they're gonna fly!' A quantum computer on a countertop in an engineering laboratory with a technician at work. Recently, Cramer commented on IonQ, Inc. (NYSE:IONQ)'s valuation: 'Oh my god, it's so high and it's losing so much money, but it's quantum. If I offer you a considered explanation of why I think that stock's too expensive, most people ignore it, so all I'm going to say is it's too speculative for me. I don't know what else to say.' While we acknowledge the potential of IONQ as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk. If you are looking for an extremely cheap AI stock that is also a major beneficiary of Trump tariffs and onshoring, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.
