The U.S. is in a “Goldilocks” economy…

Not too hot, not too cold.

Economists have predicted a “soft landing” for inflation in the near future. Of course, this will affect interest rates, among other economic factors.

I’m still holding strong to my prediction — that rates have peaked, and they will eventually come down this year.

So today, Amber and I talk about the latest U.S. jobs report for March, along with three top industries that showed the most growth this past month.

We’re also diving deep into a brand-new report from CB Insights, a research and analytics company that tracks emerging trends in the tech market.

This report details the top AI startup companies in 2024… And where the “big-name” investors are putting their money.
