    Is Intel Making a Comeback? Nvidia’s $5 Billion Bet Explained

    In this Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings dive deep into Intel’s stunning 22% stock surge following Nvidia’s surprising $5 billion investment. Is this windfall truly a game-changer for Intel, or just another temporary boost for a struggling chip giant? Our experts dissect Nvidia’s move: Is it a strategic hedge to maintain market dominance, or simply a lifeline to prop up a fading competitor? Ian breaks down why, despite the investment, Intel still lags behind industry leaders like Nvidia, AMD, and TSMC. He points out how this move is less about saving Intel and more about safeguarding Nvidia’s lead in the chip space. Troy digs into Intel’s persistent manufacturing woes, questioning whether any amount of money can close the gap as the world moves to smaller, more advanced chips. The discussion also touches on government support, the shifting dynamics between CPU and GPU markets, and how Nvidia’s seemingly generous gesture could actually be a clever play to suppress competition. With insights on market allocation, manufacturing gaps, and the future of the semiconductor industry, this clip is a must-watch for investors and tech enthusiasts alike. Will Intel ever reclaim its former glory or will it remain stuck behind a long list of stronger competitors? Tune in to hear why our hosts aren’t buying into the Intel hype—literally and figuratively. *Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more sharp financial insights and market analysis every week!* #MarketMondays #Intel #Nvidia #StockMarket #Semiconductors #Investing #AMD #TSMC #Finance #TechStocks #BusinessNews #Clip #FinancialEducation Our Sponsors:* Check out PNC Bank: https://www.pnc.com* Check out Square: https://square.com/go/eylAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    The Black Family That Built America: A 5-Generation Construction Dynasty

    In this insightful clip from Market Mondays, we are joined by Cheryl McKissick, the trailblazing CEO and President of McKissick & McKissick—the oldest Black-owned and woman-owned construction firm in the United States, with a legacy spanning over 230 years and five inspiring generations. Hosts Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings sit down with Cheryl to discuss her new book, *The Black Family Who Built America*, and the extraordinary history of her family's achievements. From their origins during slavery when Moses McKissick I perfected the art of brickmaking in North Carolina, to becoming master carpenters, architects, and builders responsible for iconic projects like JFK Airport’s Terminal 1, Barclays Center, and Harlem Hospital, Cheryl's family has been a cornerstone in shaping America’s built environment. Cheryl shares how her family navigated and thrived through slavery, Jim Crow, and systemic prejudice—all while maintaining ownership, uplifting their community, prioritizing education, and never losing sight of their identity. She highlights the five principles, or "5 Ps," that have guided their success across generations: perseverance, preparedness, persistence, productivity, and prayer. These principles have not only fueled monumental growth but have also helped the McKissicks uplift other contractors, architects, and engineers along the way. Learn how Cheryl scaled the business from its earliest days into an industry leader overseeing projects with billion-dollar valuations. She also sheds light on the importance of building networks, creating legacy, and standing as a beacon and mirror for Black professionals across America. Cheryl’s story is a testament to what can happen “when perseverance meets purpose,” and is filled with lessons for anyone looking to create generational wealth, own their story, and lead with impact. If you’re interested in entrepreneurship, generational wealth, Black excellence in business, and the hidden figures who truly built America—this clip is a must-watch. *Hashtags:* #MarketMondays #CherylMcKissick #BlackFamilyWhoBuiltAmerica #GenerationalWealth #LegacyBuilding #BlackExcellence #ConstructionIndustry #BusinessLeadership #HiddenFigures #Entrepreneurship Our Sponsors:* Check out PNC Bank: https://www.pnc.com* Check out Square: https://square.com/go/eylAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
