The Mario movie is coming, the PS5 just turned five and costs more than ever, and somehow GTA 6 isn't out yet. Jokes aside, it's crazy to think that one of your childhood games is still going strong and releasing major motion pictures in 2026.
On the mogul front, this past week was my favorite of the month: dividend week. It's always so rewarding to pay out for our properties and it's great to see the momentum we're building as the warmer months arrive.
Anyway, that's enough from me. Let's get into it.

✈️ LaGuardia Airport Reopens After Deadly Runway Collision - A runway at LaGuardia Airport has reopened after a fatal crash between an Air Canada Express jet and an airport fire truck that killed two pilots and injured dozens. Investigators say the collision occurred when the truck was cleared to cross the runway just moments before the plane landed, with possible failures in warning systems and communication now under scrutiny. The incident caused major disruptions, including hundreds of flight cancellations, as authorities continue to examine safety lapses.
⏸️ Donald Trump Extends Deadline for Strikes on Iran Energy Plants to April - Trump has paused planned attacks on Iran’s energy infrastructure and pushed the deadline into early April, saying talks are “going very well.” The delay signals a temporary de-escalation as diplomatic efforts continue, though tensions remain high and the threat of renewed strikes still looms if no agreement is reached.
🎮 Sony Hikes PS5 Prices by Up to $150 Amid Global Economic Pressures - Sony is raising prices across its PlayStation 5 lineup, with increases of up to $150, citing ongoing “pressures in the global economic landscape.” The standard PS5 will rise by about $100 to $649.99, while the PS5 Pro sees the biggest jump, climbing to around $899.99. The price hikes set to take effect in early April reflect rising component costs, including memory chips, as well as broader supply chain and geopolitical pressures impacting production.

Elon Musk has spent years insisting SpaceX would stay private. That's about to change and the numbers are staggering.
According to recent reports, SpaceX was targeting an S-1 IPO filing with regulators as early as this past week, with a public listing expected around mid-2026. If it happens as planned, this won't just be a big IPO. It will likely be the largest in history.
What's Being Offered and for How Much
Advisors close to the deal believe SpaceX could raise over $75 billion in the offering, with the company targeting a valuation between $1.5 and $1.75 trillion. For context, Saudi Aramco's $25.6 billion raise in 2019 was previously the record. SpaceX would shatter it. In a notable break from traditional IPO playbooks, Musk is now discussing allocating as much as 30% of shares to retail investors. Musk himself holds a 42% stake, meaning at a $1.75 trillion valuation, this IPO could make him the world's first confirmed trillionaire.
Space-adjacent stocks already rallied this week in anticipation. Companies like AST SpaceMobile and EchoStar jumped on the news alone.
It's Not Just a Rocket Company Anymore
Here's where the story gets complicated and, frankly, more interesting. What investors would actually be buying is not your father's aerospace stock.
In March 2025, Musk's AI company xAI completed its acquisition of X, valuing the social media platform at approximately $33 billion. Then in February 2026, SpaceX acquired xAI in an all-stock deal, folding it and by extension X into the SpaceX umbrella at a combined valuation of roughly $1.25 trillion. So the entity heading toward public markets is effectively SpaceX + Starlink + xAI + X, all under one roof and one controlling shareholder.
That's an aerospace company, a global satellite internet network, an AI lab, and a social media platform being sold to public investors as a single bet on Elon Musk's vision.
X Is Being Cleaned Up Before the Bell Rings
To get this deal done cleanly, X is currently undergoing a significant corporate restructuring. The moves are designed to separate assets, clarify financials, and minimize the appearance of conflicts of interest between Musk's overlapping companies.
So What?
The SpaceX IPO isn't really a space story. It's a story about whether Wall Street will hand one man, already the world's richest, a $1.75 trillion public mandate to run a rocket company, an AI lab, and a social media platform as a single, Musk-controlled entity.
There is no comparable precedent. Not Amazon. Not Alphabet. Not Saudi Aramco. This is a bet that the rules of corporate governance, market concentration, and conflict-of-interest disclosure simply don't apply when the founder is iconic enough. And if it prices at the top of its range and pops on day one, the market will have answered that question loudly.
The more uncomfortable truth is this: if SpaceX goes public at $1.5 to $1.75 trillion and succeeds, it validates a new template for how tech-adjacent empires get built, privately, quickly, and consolidated before the public ever gets a vote. By the time retail investors can buy in, the upside is already priced. The risk, as always, is not.

Over $89,000 has already been raised for The Reynold, a fully occupied quadplex in Cape Coral, Florida. The 4,164-square-foot property includes eight bedrooms and eight bathrooms across four 2-bedroom, 2-bath units, providing stable and diversified rental income from day one.
The asset benefits from a seasoned tenant base and recent capital upgrades, including a new roof and updated HVAC systems, helping reduce near-term maintenance costs. Year 1 projected rental income is approximately $82,200, supported by strong in-place cash flow.
Underwritten with a 10.2% average yield and an 11.3% projected IRR, the investment targets around $369,774 in total profit. With a total offering of $328,610, investors gain exposure to a stabilized, income-generating asset in a high-demand Florida rental market.
Secure your allocation while availability remains.

This is another sports book suggestion, but I had to make an exception for the fifth Beatle. Because, well, when you’re talking about one of the most fascinating athletes of all time, it almost feels wrong not to. If you only know George Best as a name or a highlight clip, this book fills in the rest: the talent, the swagger, the chaos, the charm, and the way he could light up a match like it was the easiest thing in the world. Reading it, you can’t help but feel that “they don’t make them like this anymore” thing hit hard.
What I love about Blessed is that it doesn’t try to sand him down into some perfect legend. Best comes through as brilliant and flawed in the most human way possible: funny, sharp, confident, and also clearly pulled in a hundred directions by fame and temptation. And as a fan, that’s exactly what makes it so compelling: you get the feeling you’re watching a once-in-a-generation gift colliding with a world that didn’t really know what to do with someone like him. He was an absolute superstar in every sense of the word, at a time when that was not common at all for athletes.
By the end, it left me with that mix of admiration and frustration only a true sports icon can create. Because Best isn’t just a “what could’ve been” story...he did do it. He reached that level people still talk about decades later, and is one of the best of all time despite the off the pitch stuff. If you’re into sports biographies at all, or you just want to read about someone who lived an incredible, fascinating life, then this is a no brainer.
⭐ 4.81 / 5.0 in my book (no pun intended)

Icefish have clear blood because they lack red blood cells. Nature is incredible.
