Turning a beloved board game into a movie can go well, like “Jumanji,” or badly, like “Battleship,” but so far, the making of the “Monopoly” movie has struggled to even pass “go.” More than a decade after Lionsgate first rolled the dice on the project, the latest turn in the game has two different screenwriting pairs competing to pen a winning take. If it actually gets made, the massive popularity of the IP could give it a box office boost. 

The S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, and Russell 2000 climbed higher yesterday on news that the US and Iran have reached a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end hostilities. Oil prices sank on the news.

Technology was the best-performing sector as the peace deal reignited enthusiasm for the AI trade, and all Magnificent 7 stocks rose.

If you live near Giga Texas — or have come across drone footage of it online — you’ve seen the buildup: rows of gleaming Tesla Cybercabs piling up in outbound lots. Or you’ve seen Tesla employees in the driver’s seat on social media or the streets of Austin.

Tesla, of course, famously doesn’t respond to reporters’ questions.

It’s unclear why they’re not on the road yet — it could be software training needs, it could be that the cars are so new that they’re still in the testing phase, or it could be a number of other factors. Right now, Tesla is confident enough to be piling up the hardware. It just isn’t confident enough to let passengers inside.

For instance, in yesterday’s Scoreboard, we dove into who’s gaining and who’s losing in the World Cup after a huge weekend of soccer. The chance that the United States makes it to the round of 16 jumped by 17% to hit 63%, Australia’s shot at making it there jumped by 18%, and both Sweden (next game June 20 against the Netherlands) and South Korea (next game June 18 against Mexico) saw their chances at making it to the round of 16 jump by 14%. 

On the other side of the coin, Türkiye and Paraguay all had disastrous starts that tanked their chances of making it into the round of 16 by double digits. The US faces Australia and Türkiye plays Paraguay in a must-win game for both in just a few days.

Only days after releasing two versions of its next-gen AI model, Anthropic has disabled them for users worldwide.

Anthropic downplayed the significance of the attack, and said other major models, such as OpenAI’s GPT-5.5, could also be affected by the technique described.

Fears of these first Mythos-class models being misused are running high, after Anthropic warned the cybersecurity world in May that the advanced cyber capabilities of Mythos have rapidly discovered thousands of vulnerabilities in ubiquitous software, leading to the decision to restrict the full version of the model to a close group of trusted partners for testing.

Axios reported that Anthropic technical staff have flown to Washington to meet with White House officials to resolve the issue. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that the Trump administration’s decision to take action against Anthropic was prompted by discussions that Amazon CEO Andy Jassy had with officials, including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. 

Commiserations (or cry reacts?) to chronically online British teens: the UK will officially enact a social media ban for children under the age of 16, using the same model for the restrictions as Australia did — but how successful has that case study been in practice?
