Wall Street Ends 2025 Grinning Amid the Gloom: What It Really Means for Investors

  Charging Bull - Wikipedia The iconic Charging Bull in Lower Manhattan – a symbol of Wall Street 's relentless optimism, even in tough times. ⏱️ Step 1: Verify Access (15s) Loading... Wait... As the ball dropped in Times Square last night, Wall Street was already popping champagne. The S&P 500 finished 2025 up more than 16%, capping off three straight years of solid gains in a classic bull market run. If you've been invested, congratulations – your portfolio likely had a very merry Christmas. But step away from the trading floors, and the mood feels different. For millions of Americans, 2025 was a year of tight budgets, rising worries about jobs, and that nagging sense that the good times on Wall Street aren't trickling down. I've been covering markets for over 15 years, and this disconnect – the "grinning amid the gloom" that Bloomberg nailed in their year-end briefing – hits harder than most.

NVIDIA’s New Paper: Tool Orchestra – Small Models Doing Big Jobs, at a Fraction of the Cost!

A major breakthrough has just hit the AI world. NVIDIA has published a new research paper showing how a tiny “controller model” can orchestrate larger models and tools to solve complex problems much more cheaply. The technique is being called ToolOrchestra , and it has the potential to make AI dramatically more efficient and intelligent. According to the paper, giant language models like GPT-5 are powerful but extremely expensive for every single task. NVIDIA researchers built an 8-billion-parameter “orchestrator” model whose only job is to decide when to call web search, code execution, a math-specialist model, or a big general-purpose model. This orchestrator was trained with reinforcement learning (RL): it tries different sequences of tools, gets rewarded based on the outcome, and gradually learns the smartest patterns. The reward system considers three things: correct answers, low cost/time, and user preferences (e.g., preferring local tools). To overcome the lack of real-world t...
