Have you had sticker shock at the grocery store lately? Well, one big tech company has the answer to our inflation woes: artificial intelligence. I don't know when this inflation wave will break. Right now, I expect we'll see lower prices sometime in the third quarter. Time will tell, but I am certain of one thing: Inflation will be transitory.

Many believe that Wall Street is always an arm and a leg ahead of us. That it's impossible for the little guys to find amazing companies before it is too late. Well, with a little bit of help, I can steer you into mega trends that Paul and I think will flourish for years to come. Paul has a way of looking at the market, finding trends and investing in the future like no one else. America 2.0 and the Fourth Industrial Revolution is the biggest wealth-building era we'll ever see.

The idea that "uncertainty" has returned to the stock market in 2018 is perhaps the understatement of the year. Protectionist trade policies are whipsawing the S&P 500 SPX, 0.35% based on the news cycle, and headlines can cause individual segments of the market to move even more dramatically. Just look at the slump for Harley-Davidson Inc. HOG, 0.69% in late June, and how automakers responded to discussions of targeted tariffs last week. There are plenty of investors who are a bit testy about this, since one tweet by Donald Trump or the latest tit-for-tat in tariffs can undercut their strategy. But there are still stocks that are very much on the upswing regardless of trade escalations.

Artificial intelligence – fuelled by big data – and blockchain tech, are some of the technologies that could impact our world, according to Sarwant Singh, senior parter at Frost & Sullivan. Speaking at the Global Community of Growth, Innovation and Leadership (GIL Europe) conference, held in London today, Singh discussed mega trends in the technological world in an attempt to examine their implications on businesses and societies. "I believe we are now entering the cognitive area," said Singh in reference to artificial intelligence, adding: "We'll move towards super intelligence [in the future]. It is not available today". By super intelligence, Singh was referring to the possibility that computers may eventually be able to function similarly to the human brain.
