Big investors are buying this “unlisted” stock

When the founder who sold his last company to Zillow for $120M starts a new venture, people notice. That’s why the same VCs who backed Uber, Venmo, and eBay also invested in Pacaso.

Disrupting the real estate industry once again, Pacaso’s streamlined platform offers co-ownership of premier properties, revamping the $1.3T vacation home market.

And it works. By handing keys to 2,000+ happy homeowners, Pacaso has already made $110M+ in gross profits in their operating history.

Now, after 41% YoY gross profit growth last year alone, they recently reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO.

President Donald Trump wants to make our government institutions Great Again, by scrubbing the DEI and anti-American messaging left behind by the Biden administration.

By Liz Peek

You could practically hear the cheering on Thursday as critics of President Trump finally got what they’ve waited months for — some indication that tariffs might (finally!) drive prices higher. Yesterday’s Producer Price Index report showed wholesale prices jumped 0.9 percent over the last month, the biggest gain since June 2022. It followed another benign […]

Con man Zohran Mamdani wants to ignore real causes of NYC’s affordability crisis

By Liz Peek

Zohran Mamdani is a con man. Not just because the socialist currently atop New York’s mayoral leaderboard lives in a rent-controlled apartment, which should offend everyone, but because he promises to make life more affordable for New Yorkers while ignoring the real causes of the Big Apple’s cost-of-living crisis. Mamdani is correct: New York is […]

Hillary is finally paying dearly for dirty tricks that hurt Trump and American voters

By Liz Peek

Put yourself in Hillary Clinton’s shoes. No, really. I know it’s an abhorrent thought, but imagine being Hillary, having initiated the greatest political dirty trick of all time, watching Russiagate unspool over the past decade. Think of her witnessing the country go down the granddaddy of all rabbit holes in 2017 – a rabbit hole […]
