Hi friends,

Cash out

Jerome Guillen, ex-president of Tesla as of this month, dumped around 450,000 shares of Tesla throughout the month of June (over a quarter BILLION worth of shares). What a massive payday for the ex-exec.


Back to the table

Talks in Vienna are underway around the Iran nuclear deal, with Iran and the U.S. leading the charge in figuring things out, with Russia, China, the UK, Germany, France, and the EU to be a part of the round table.


Vaccines to Taiwan

2.5 million doses of Moderna just got shipped over to Taiwan after a brief stint in a rise of daily cases. With the additional doses in tow, sunny days are ahead.
