AI Buzz Fuels Wall Street Chatter: Amazon, OpenAI, Tesla in Focus

Today on Wall Street, futures barely budged as investors braced for the Fed’s interest rate decision.

Meanwhile, OpenAI’s Sam Altman revealed Meta dangled $100 million in bonuses to lure talent, though none made the jump. And in Texas, Tesla shares ticked up after word that its Austin factory will pause Cybertruck and Model Y production later this month, marking its third temporary shutdown in a year.
