Introduction:
In today’s episode, we explore a landmark UK-US agreement aimed at accelerating nuclear energy development through advanced modular reactors, promising thousands of jobs and enhanced energy security amid technological and regulatory challenges. We then turn to the financial markets, where major U.S. stock indexes like the Nasdaq reach new highs, yet underlying fragility remains as United Airlines soars 41% while retailers like Target struggle.
