  France’s government collapsed amid fiscal pressures. French Prime Minister Francois Bayrou lost a confidence vote in Parliament, which will force President Emmanuel Macron to name a new premier in the country’s third change of government in just over a year. Bayrou’s ousting came after he proposed unpopular spending cuts and tax hikes to address the country’s mounting debt. Whoever comes next will still have to face the political challenge of passing a budget.
  
  A suggestive letter and drawing that was purportedly signed by President Trump from a book created in 2003 to celebrate Jeffrey Epstein’s 50th birthday was released publicly yesterday by House Democrats. The president has denied writing or signing the letter and sued the Wall Street Journal for reporting on it.
  
  SpaceX has agreed to pay $17 billion to buy wireless spectrum and mobile satellite service spectrum licenses from EchoStar to boost Starlink’s satellite network and direct-to-phone service.
  
  At least six Israelis were killed by Palestinian gunmen at a Jerusalem bus stop. The attack, which was not claimed by Hamas, was the deadliest in Israel since October 2024 amid Israel’s war in Gaza and expanding settlements in the West Bank.
  
  PNC has inked a deal to buy Colorado-based FirstBank for $4.1 billion, expanding its presence in Colorado and Arizona as the regional bank seeks to grow.

  EchoStar popped 19.91% on the news that it’s selling $17 billion worth of spectrum licenses to Elon Musk’s SpaceX. That’s bad news for EchoStar competitors like T-Mobile (down 3.9%) and SpaceX competitors like AST SpaceMobile (down 3.87%).
  
  Screw capitalism: A new Gallup poll shows that 54% of Americans view capitalism favorably, down from 60% in 2021.

  Investors have “bought the rumor” of a Fed rate cut—but when it actually happens, the market could plunge as they “sell the news,” JPMorgan warned.
  
  G-7 nations are in serious debt trouble, and the UK may be the canary in the coalmine for what’s to come.
