Egan-Jones Maps Where AI Disruption Hits First: Services, Venture Capital, Housing

Egan-Jones, a US credit rating firm, says AI disruption will hit professional services, venture capital and housing first. It regards a broad economic overhaul as virtually assured.　　The firm‘s Oct. 1 report, titled “It’s Over,” targets institutional investors and risk managers. Egan-Jones notes that credit analysts did not write it.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　Where Does Egan-Jones Expect AI Disruption to Land First？　　Professional services top the list because those firms bill clients for expertise by the hour.　　As evidence, the report cites Big Four accounting network KPMG pressing its auditor, Grant Thornton UK, to share AI savings. UK filings show the audit fee fell 14%, from $416,000 to $357,000, the Financial Times reported.　　It also points to IBM, whose shares fell 13% on Feb. 23, the steepest drop since 2000, according to Bloomberg. Anthropic had said Claude Code could speed up modernization of COBOL, a decades-old language used on banking mainframes.　　Not every analyst saw lasting damage. Evercore ISI kept an Outperform rating on IBM after the drop. It noted IBM already sells its own modernization tools, per Investing.com.　　Venture capital follows, in Egan-Joness telling. The firm reasons that startups scaling on less capital leave venture firms with less leverage and lower returns.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　It suspects few limited partners (LPs), the investors

Illinois backs delay to crypto tax rule after months of industry pushback

Illinois officials have joined crypto industry groups in seeking a six-month delay to the states controversial digital-asset tax.　　Related Company The Digital Chamber Washington, DC-based trade association　　The agreed motion, filed Oct. 1 in Sangamon County, asks a judge to postpone the levys Jan. 1 start until July 1, 2027, while a constitutional challenge brought by The Digital Chamber and the Illinois Blockchain Association proceeds.　　Revenue Director David Harris and Attorney General Kwame Raoul joined the request even as the state continues to dispute the industry groups claims against the law. If granted, the injunction would temporarily spare brokers from collecting the tax and defer corresponding liabilities for covered customers.　　The court had not been confirmed to have entered the order as of Oct. 4.　　The move marks a shift in the immediate battle over a levy that crypto firms have spent months warning could raise compliance costs and push activity outside Illinois. The law remains in force, and the joint filing does not concede that it is unconstitutional or seek its repeal.　　Instead, both sides would preserve their legal positions while delaying collection as the lawsuit and the states rulemaking process continue.　　Illinois crypto tax burden moves back six months　　Illinois enacted the Digital Asset Tax in

Do You Own Gold, Silver or Bitcoin？ Robert Kiyosaki Just Dropped a Hard Truth

Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki said that he calls himself a “financial prepper”, comparing scarce assets to the insurance drivers buy before an accident.　　His argument holds even as gold, silver, and Bitcoin trade well below the targets he has repeatedly promoted.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　What Being a “Financial Prepper” Means　　A financial prepper holds assets a central bank cannot create, treating them as protection against currency debasement rather than a wager on collapse.　　Kiyosaki built that definition during a public exchange. Asked whether prepping signaled pessimism, he answered that drivers never hope for crashes, yet they still carry coverage.　　He then asked a listener a direct question: did she own gold, silver, or Bitcoin？ She said no, arguing that officials would print more money during a crisis. Kiyosaki turned that answer into his point. Printing dilutes purchasing power, and that dilution is inflation.　　Governments reach the same wealth through a second route: taxation. His conclusion was blunt. Kiyosaki wants only money that no central bank can print. He also holds oil wells, since governments remain dependable buyers of crude.　　His warnings to investors come down to three points:　　Sponsored　　SponsoredTreat scarce assets as insurance against debasement, never as a promise of quick returns.Expect purchasing power to erode through printing

El Salvadors $666 million Bitcoin reserve survives IMF review

El Salvador secured access to $138 million from the IMF while recommitting to limits on further state Bitcoin accumulation.　　Related Asset Bitcoin #1 BTC · $86,483.96 24-hour change: up 2.02% Loading price history… 24H Up 2.02% 7D Up 2.33% 30D Up 8.55%　　The International Monetary Fund (IMF) completed the second and third reviews of the countrys $1.4 billion loan program on Oct. 1, allowing an immediate disbursement equivalent to SDR 101.96 million, or $138 million. The board also granted waivers for unmet performance criteria tied to Bitcoin accumulation after authorities took corrective measures and renewed their commitments.　　Those waivers keep financing flowing despite earlier breaches, while leaving the programs direction on Bitcoin unchanged. The IMF said no further accumulation is envisaged beyond documented donations, preserving a constraint that prevents the government from resuming publicly funded purchases under the program.　　El Salvador currently holds about 7,794.37 Bitcoin valued at roughly $666.1 million. The size of that reserve has continued to draw attention because additions to government-linked wallets appear inconsistent with the IMF agreement.　　The Fund has previously distinguished between Bitcoin acquired with public money and coins received through documented donations. That distinction remains central after the latest review: reserve balances can still rise without signaling that

Peter Schiff Says MicroStrategy Lost Its Bitcoin-Buying Power

He said STRC trades near $99.4, a recovery he admitted surprised him.　　MicroStrategy Stretch (STRC) Stock. Soure: TradingView　　He credited Strategys weekly STRC buybacks and Bitcoins rally for the move. Schiff said that rally may have restored some confidence in the stock or triggered short covering.　　The preferred stock had sunk to about $75 earlier this year, which CEO Phong Le blamed on unexpected leverage.　　Referring to Executive Chairman Michael Saylor, Schiff argued that the rebound has not reopened Strategys key funding route.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　“There‘s no way that he’s going to be able to start selling more Stretch; that means hes not going to be able to raise money to really start buying more Bitcoin,” Schiff said.　　He added that Strategy has raised enough cash to keep paying STRC dividends a little longer before it runs out.

What Is the Most In-Demand AI Skill on Wall Street？

Job postings that mention agent orchestration jumped 1,721% this year, according to hiring data firm Draup. Banks including JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup and Capital One listed 139,819 AI-related roles, a 49% rise from 2025.　　The hiring push runs against the broader US labor picture. Employers have cited AI in more announced job cuts this year than any other reason.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　Banks Move From Chatbots to Teams of Agents　　Agent orchestration means designing several agents to work together on one task. One agent might inspect raw data, another reads a document, and a third checks compliance.　　The 1,721% jump comes from a small base, though. References rose from 108 in 2025 to 1,967 this year, while prompt engineering still leads in volume with 11,368.　　“This is arguably the hottest skill on Wall Street. Its a massive opportunity,” said Draup CEO Vijay Swaminathan.　　Mentions of LangGraph, a framework for multistep workflows, rose 679% to 5,300.
