1. Apple Car delayed to ”2028 at the earliest,” autonomous driving not yet working

Apple has downgraded the EV's expectations to Level 2+ autonomy, similar to the current Teslas, where the drivers still need to pay attention to the road and take over at any time:

  • The board pressed Apple leadership about the car many times in 2023.

  • $100M's/year being spent on R&D.

  • Tesla, meanwhile, has mid-2025 as its target plan to build its new “Redwood” EV.

2. Trump, Biden easily win NH primary, as Haley, Phillips press on as challengers

Trump has a 94% chance of being the nominee, according to betting markets

  • Haley's biggest chance would be Trump being ruled ineligible to run by the Supreme Court.

Biden's 80% odds likely reflects risks connected to his age

The GOP is slightly favored to win the presidency, at 52%
