Good morning. I created a AI automated daily newsletter for family and friends that scrapes ESPN and CNBC for the top articles, writes a snarky little recap and creates an image. n8n
In a week where both markets and footballs were up in the air, Miami pulled off a heart-stopping 31-27 victory over Ole Miss in the CFP semifinal, proving that sometimes the best investments are in last-minute scrambles.
Meanwhile, China's attempting its own comeback drive in the property sector, with rumors of support measures coming faster than a Carson Beck quarterback sneak. The difference? Miami actually executed their game plan.
Trump's taking shots at institutional homebuyers in Sun Belt markets like Atlanta and Jacksonville, apparently forgetting that playing monopoly with houses went out of style faster than the wildcat formation.
In a plot twist worthy of a bowl game highlight reel, Washington QB Demond Williams Jr. pulled the ultimate transfer portal fake-out - announcing his departure only to stick around faster than a day trader's buy-sell order.
Stocks are making moves in extended trading hours, with General Motors and Intel showing more direction changes than Ole Miss's offensive strategy. At least Ray Lewis showed up to offer some motivation - though we're pretty sure his pep talks work better for football than for falling property values.
The real MVP might be China's flagship journal Qiushi, desperately trying to quarterback a property market recovery before their March meeting. But unlike Miami's championship hopes, this comeback story's still very much in doubt.
