Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways Instead of sending cold outreach that asks for links, businesses are more likely to earn citations and media coverage by publishing unique, credible data from their own records As AI-powered search reduces clicks to traditional websites, publishing original research increases the chances of being cited in articles and AI-generated answers, helping build long-term visibility and authority even when users don’t visit the site directly. Most outreach asks for value and offers none in return. The businesses that earn links and citations publish proof first. Every Monday morning, I open my…
Want more housing market stories from Lance Lambert’s ResiClub in your inbox? Subscribe to the ResiClub newsletter. Doug Bauer, CEO of Tri Pointe Homes—America’s 19th largest homebuilder—thinks the phrase “affordability” gets overused. “It’s a catchy term,” Bauer tells ResiClub. “You pull it up in ChatGPT or Webster’s dictionary, it’s what one person could afford to pay for that good or service, and everybody’s a little different.” Tri Pointe skews toward move-up buyers, he says, and his argument is that net effective new-build pricing in core homebuilding markets has already come down meaningfully from its 2022 frenzy highs—which means the real…
After OpenAI’s latest model broke containment and went rogue, Congress acted fast, introducing a bipartisan bill that called for the creation of an AI kill switch, which lawmakers said would ensure the technology could not get the upper hand on humans. As written, the bill would require AI companies to be able to immediately shut down all of their advanced AI programs. The proposal has plenty of vocal proponents and opponents, but neither side appears to be paying much attention to a significant oversight that could dramatically reduce its effectiveness. While the bill could force makers of closed-source models to…
Key Takeaways American workers’ median earnings total about $65,000 annually. Roughly 40% of U.S. singles think the amount of money potential partners make is important. New data from Northwestern Mutual reveals how salary expectations differ among men, women and different generations. The adage “love is blind” might not apply when it comes to finances. Image Credit: pepifoto | Getty Images Although American workers saw median weekly earnings of $1,251 in the second quarter of 2026, totaling roughly $65,000 per year, many U.S. singles want their ideal partner to earn well above that figure. Northwestern Mutual’s 2026 Planning & Progress Study,…
Peptides, the same class of wonder molecule behind GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, could soon be easier to get your hands on. A federal advisory panel voted 8-6 to recommend easing restrictions on peptides like BPC-157 and TB-500, chemicals popular with wellness influencers like Joe Rogan and telehealth clinics, the AP reports. Unlike Ozempic, these compounds are not FDA-approved medications. The vote doesn’t immediately clear the way for peptides to be legal, but it sends a signal. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has called himself a “big fan” of peptides and already removed some from the FDA’s high-risk list earlier…
One of this summer’s biggest Hollywood dramas isn’t even on a screen. It’s a lawsuit. Warner Bros. Discovery is suing Amazon, accusing the tech giant of running a “lawless employee shopping spree,” Variety reports. The beef centers on Pia Barlow, HBO Max’s former senior VP of originals marketing, who Amazon hired for a newly created head of original series marketing role starting August 3. WBD alleges Amazon lured Barlow into breaking her agreement with WBD, dangling a bigger paycheck and even providing her with one of its own hand-picked outside law firms for legal defense. Barlow resigned June 5, after…
Forget SpaceX: This Chinese chip stock is going to the moon. ChangXin Memory Technologies, or CXMT, recently went public on the Shanghai Stock Exchange’s tech-focused STAR Market (a China-based equivalent to the Nasdaq exchange), and has quickly shot up the charts. On its initial day of trading, it shot up almost 466%, becoming the most valuable company on the exchange, and accrued a market capitalization of around $487 billion. Despite many people only now learning its name, CXMT was founded a decade ago, in 2016, and has grown from a startup into a budding global player in the microchip industry. …

When my 10-year-old got her hands on a Toniebox loaded with Hasbro’s The Game of Life, she didn’t leave her room for an entire afternoon. When I popped in to check on her, she was choosing different life paths—a fashion designer with a passion for gardening, an astronaut with twins. Later, she roped her dad into a round of Monopoly. Neither game required a screen. That’s precisely the market Tonies, a decade-old toy company, is chasing. Gaming time among kids age 8 and under has surged 65% since 2020 while overall screen time has held steady at around two and…
