In this episode of Investor’s Playbook, we're unpacking one of the tech world’s most eyebrow-raising moves: the U.S. government has struck a deal with Nvidia and AMD that gives Washington 15% of the revenue from their AI chip sales to China.

We’ll break down how the deal came to be: after a brief export ban, Nvidia’s CEO met with President Trump, and suddenly the long-blocked chips were cleared for sale, just with a price tag attached in the form of that 15% revenue-sharing agreement.

On the investor front, we’ll explore the ripple effects: how this could hit chipmakers’ margins, alter market expectations, and create new uncertainty around U.S.-China tech trade and future export policy.

In this episode of Investor’s Playbook, we’re diving into a growing trend—more Americans are dipping into their 401(k) savings early, and it’s not just for retirement anymore. Whether it’s job losses, medical bills, or simply keeping up with everyday living expenses, many are treating their retirement accounts like emergency funds. 

We’ll break down what’s driving this shift, including the impact of the SECURE 2.0 law, which has brought major changes to 401(k) plans such as auto enrollment, higher contribution caps, special catch-up limits for those aged 60 to 63, and new penalty-free withdrawal options. We’ll also explore why financial professionals warn that tapping into your 401(k) early can significantly shrink your future nest egg, and we’ll discuss potential alternatives like emergency savings or 401(k) loans that might make more sense. 

If you’ve ever wondered how people are balancing today’s financial struggles with long-term retirement goals, this conversation will give you the insight you need to make informed decisions about your own money.
