That’s how Musk will save billions
Multibillionaire Elon Musk is to streamline the state apparatus under Donald Trump’s rule in the United States.
In a debate article in The Wall Street Journal, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy write about their plans for Trump’s new Department of Government Efficiency, abbreviated Doge.
“Reduce $500 billion in annual federal spending that Congress has not authorized or that is used in ways Congress did not intend — from $535 million a year on (public service channel) PBS and $1.5 billion in grants to international organizations.
Another measure is to reduce the number of employees as much as possible.

Demirok: Can’t stand outside like a beggar
C leader Muharrem Demirok is pressed in SVT’s Aktuell current election of Prime Minister candidate for the next election.
But he himself believes that no such decision has been made. Neither by the party leader himself nor within the party.
At the same time, he highlights S-leader Magdalena Andersson.
– I am pleased that Andersson says that she can cooperate with all parties except the Sweden Democrats. It is a positive message, says Demirok in the program.
– Ulf Kristersson closes doors. Then centrists cannot stand outside like beggars and wait for him to open it. We have backbone and don’t just wait for others to let us in.
Earlier this week, Aftonbladet was able to report on the internal criticism of Demirok.
According to sources, resignation demands have been discussed internally due to the party leader’s support for Andersson.
Better than expected for Nvidia

Better than expected for Nvidia
Semiconductor giant Nvidia beat forecasts for both revenue and profit in the third quarter.
The turnover amounted to 35.1 billion dollars, corresponding to 3,871 billion kroner. This can be compared with the forecast according to the analysis company LSEG of 33.2 billion dollars.
The profit per share was 81 cents against the expected 75 cents.
Nvidia, which manufactures processors for artificial intelligence and graphics cards, is the world’s most valued company: 3,600 billion dollars or approximately 40,000 billion kroner. This roughly corresponds to the Stockholm Stock Exchange’s total value times three.
The growing appetite for Nvidia’s products around the world has led to an 850 percent price rise since the AI boom took off two years ago. Since the turn of the year alone, the share has risen by more than 200 percent.
