Despite the risks, he sees a 'monster' buying opportunity emerging for nearly all other areas of the market, attributing the potential correction to a discrepancy between the debt and equity markets, indicating a possible market correction.

Former Utah Jazz player Thurl Bailey and nine teammates from the 1983 NC State men’s basketball championship team filed a lawsuit against the NCAA and Collegiate Licensing Company in North Carolina, alleging the unlawful use of their NIL and publicity rights from their iconic tournament win. They compare themselves to the original Cinderella team and claim ongoing harm, referencing Ed O’Bannon’s precedent-setting lawsuit over player compensation. The players demand a jury trial, an injunction against unauthorized footage use, and monetary damages over $25,000. The NCAA will likely argue the case is time-barred and cite First Amendment protection for using game footage. Bailey, now 63, played 12 NBA seasons, while his teammates pursued different paths post-basketball.

Shares of CoreCivic Inc. and Target Hospitality Corp. dropped significantly after US authorities announced the closure of a costly migrant detention facility in Dilley, Texas. CoreCivic's stock fell by as much as 27% following the news, and Target Hospitality Corp. saw a record 42% decline intraday due to the expected contract termination. The closure at Dilley comes after President Joe Biden's executive order banning illegal border crossers from obtaining asylum, prompting ICE to reallocate funds to increase detention capacity by 1,600 beds.
