Touchless Wireless Power Could Be The Future And WiGL (Pronounced Wiggle) Reports Making It Possible — Just Ask ChatGPT What Edison And Tesla Would Say About The Industry

WiGL Inc

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Click here to invest in WiGL and be a part of their growth story! Wireless power technology has gained momentum recently, with the development of wireless charging pads and other devices. The market for wireless power is projected to grow significantly in the coming years, with the increasing demand for more connected mobile devices and the need for convenient charging solutions. The global wireless charging market is projected by some estimates to exceed $63.7 billion by 2032, with a projected CAGR of 24.2% from 2023 to 2032. While wireless power technologies have made significant strides in recent years, there are still debates over technical issues that should or shouldn’t be addressed. One of the main issues is the efficiency of wireless power transfer, which is lower than wired charging. This can result in longer charging times and energy loss during the transfer of wireless power. Some critics have also brought up concerns about the safety of wireless charging, particularly with regard to the potential health effects of exposure to electromagnetic fields. Hampton, Virginia-based WiGL is working to solve these issues with its networks of transmitters to power or recharge the Internet of Things (“IoT”). Similarly to how WiFi gets you wireless internet, WiGL gets you wireless power. Although the technology – like AI – is still developing, the company is at the forefront of the energy conversation, creating systems to create, transmit, and store energy. And with over 4, multi-year contracts with the United States Department of Defense, WiGL appears to be headed in the right direction. Under these contracts, WiGL is using Federal Communications Commission-approved transmitters to address safety concerns and smart power management to address efficiency. But being cutting-edge requires cutting-edge thought and vision. So WiGL ran an interesting simulation on ChatGPT that asked what Elon Musk, Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison would say about 100% touchless Wireless Power Transfer (tWPT) in the coming years. As it turned out, the AI simulation weighed favorably on WiGL’s tWPT technologies. As the IoT evolves, technologies that make people’s life easier and more accessible will be at the forefront of the conversation. WiGL seems well-positioned to be a leader in the creation - transmission - storage of power industries – and their patented technologies continue to catch the attention of the United States Department of Defense. The company reports that compared to its closest competitors and partners – Energous (NASDAQ: WATT) and Huawei – WiGL feels its patented technologies have far superior long-distance applications. WiGL’s technologies work just like traditional WiFi. Similar to how WiFi works, WiGL-enabled networks of transmitters use the same raw radio frequency as noise. But WiGL uses that noise to charge IoT devices, including cell phones. This technology could allow people to be truly mobile. Investors currently have a chance to invest in WiGL – the company is currently hosting it’s 3rd raise on StartEngine. The company was the first Reg CF on StartEngine to hit the $5M cap, and with its team of industry leaders, it will be interesting to see how the company evolves following this next raise. Click here to check out WiGL’s StartEngine page, and how to invest! WiGL is the umbrella technology creating the future for smart, touchless, networked wireless power. WiGL, (pronounced “wiggle”), is bringing new technologies developed for the Department of Defense to make everyone’s life more convenient.. by creating a network of targeted energy to power or recharge the Internet of Things (“IoT”). WiFi gets you wireless internet, WiGL gets you wireless power.

Consumer Staples Sector ETF XLP for Uncertain Times

Select Sector SPDR

With consumer prices rising, it’s important for advisors and investors to understand the role the Consumer Staples sector plays in a diversified portfolio, especially in these times of higher than usual inflation. When inflation doubles, as the U.S. economy has seen over the last 12 months, consumer spending habits typically shift to frugality. Buying new Nike shoes and Coach purses can be put off, but spending on essentials like toothpaste, not so much. The Consumer Staples ETF ( XLP ) tracks a market-cap-weighted index of consumer staples stocks selected from the S&P 500 and can be reflective of the shift in consumer spending toward basic consumer staples versus discretionary services. XLP’s top holdings* are Procter & Gamble (14.45%), Pepsi (10.31%), Costco (9.65%), and Coca-Cola (9.47%). Rounding out the top 10, all with significant weightings, are Walmart, Mondelez (one of the world’s largest snack maker who owns Nabisco and Cadbury), tobacco companies Philp Morris and Altria, Colgate-Palmolive, and Target. A Walk Through the Grocery Store XLP represents a typical walk through a grocery store or the stores themselves. This is a very simple ETF to understand under the hood. XLP delivers a representative basket of consumer staples firms. Because XLP pulls its stocks from the S&P 500 rather than the broad market, the fund’s holdings are nearly all large caps, which investors may appreciate for their familiarity and stability. The Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR fund seeks to provide exposure to stocks in the following industries: food and staples retailing, beverage, food products, tobacco, household, and personal products. The index is rebalanced quarterly to meet diversification requirements. XLP was launched in 1998, making it a stalwart on the ETF market. The ETF has been through recessions, the Great Financial Crisis, and today’s choppy economic times. With over $17 billion in assets under management and a low-cost expense ratio of 0.10%**, XLP offers advisors and investors an easy and inexpensive way to access this basket of large-cap companies that service basic consumer needs. ETF investing can be simple to understand and convey to clients with a fund like XLP. The constituents are everyday products and the retailers where consumers patronize. The key is understanding the role XLP can play in a diversified portfolio, and that it is one that has been battle tested during uncertain economic times and rising inflation. The consumer will always need basic consumer goods. DISCLAIMER: This is a work of research and should not be taken as investment or financial advice.

Tradecurve.io

Crypto enters a new cycle, but the capital patterns remain the same. These patterns have allowed thousands of investors to generate incredible wealth and work every cycle.

Investors need to use their heads. Bitcoin (BTC) hit a new high in June, meaning the next logical move is to load up on altcoins. Especially Tradecurve (TCRV) and Shiba Inu (SHIB), both earmarked to become market leaders. >>BUY TCRV TOKENS NOW<< Tradecurve (TCRV) Ready For 5,000% Move to Upside No marketplace in the world rewards innovation as positively as crypto. And Tradecurve pioneering a new trading pair model has led analysts to forecast a whopping 5,000% surge before the protocol finishes its presale! Tradecurve takes the best features from centralized exchanges, namely institutional-level liquidity and slippage-free trading, and brings them on-chain. This fully decentralized trading platform leverages a unique hybrid infrastructure to make this possible, giving the CEX trading experience with the DeFi custody approach. Instead of high commissions, Tradecurve employs transparent on-chain pricing, and its dedication to total transparency can be seen in the protocol’s roadmap, which features the integration of Proof of Reserves.

The protocol pushes both forward and on Tradecurve, investors can collateralize crypto and use it to trade across asset classes.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) Flags Bullish Signals Shiba Inu (SHIB) has regained investors’ attention after technical analysis signals that Shiba Inu (SHIB) looks ready to break out. Further impressive metrics from Shibarium, the new layer two chain for Shiba Inu (SHIB), fuel this bullish pivot.

As IMF Deputy Director Issues AI Warning, Workers Are Unprepared For Disruptions Caused By Advent Of AI – Amesite Is Looking To Change That

Amesite Inc.

By David Willey, Benzinga Click here to download the latest research report on Amesite. The technology of tomorrow is rapidly becoming the economy of today, and governments and workers are unprepared for the changes, said Gita Gopinath, Deputy Director of the International Monitory Fund (IMF), in a recent interview with the Financial Times. Artificial intelligence (AI) is here to stay, and it is already changing how people live and work. As technology reshapes the marketplace, governments and institutions need to act fast, both in terms of implementing regulations but also “also in terms of preparing for probable substantial disruptions in labor markets,” said Gopinath. She highlighted the potential for particularly extreme changes – that will include both benefits and disruptions – coming from large-language models like ChatGPT. In previous decades, the assumption has been that individuals and economies would adjust to new technologies. “The lesson we have learned is that it was a very bad assumption to make,” concluded Gopinath. That is why online platform and course developer Amesite (NASDAQ: AMST) has made it its mission to help institutions upskill both students and workforces. It is rejecting the complacency model that has failed workers in the past and is working with businesses, universities, government agencies and others to help prepare them to thrive in a changing economic and technological environment. Amesite Works With Business And Schools Amesite has always had a technology-first approach, and to support its eLearning offerings, the company recently launched Version 6.0 (V6) of its platform website. Amesite’s white-label, scalable platform is designed to host courses from businesses and learning institutions that help them upskill and reskill their employees. As part of its commitment to helping the transition to an AI-powered economy, it launched a free course on the fundamentals of ChatGPT and has integrated several AI capabilities into V6. Amesite is positioning itself as a leader in adopting AI in the educational sector, which it believes places it at the vanguard of AI development and integration. An Ipsos survey from late 2021 found that education was the sector people thought most likely to be impacted by AI. Bill Gates has also recently commented on the transformation that AI could bring to education, saying AI has the potential to take learning to a “whole new level.” One way Amesite is helping change education is through its partnership with the National Association for Equal Opportunity in Higher Education (NAFEO). Amesite is working with NAFEO-affiliated colleges and universities to deliver upskilling content through NAFEO’s Center for Opportunity, Excellence and Equity (COEE) learning management system. Amesite also recently partnered with Michigan Works! Southeast (MWSE) to provide training materials through MWSE’s Learning Community Environment system. Other companies looking to adapt in the eLearning sector include Coursera Inc. (NYSE: COUR), 2U (NASDAQ: TWOU) and Powerschool Holdings Inc. (NYSE: PWSC). However, Amesite cites data from a third-party source indicating it has both a higher positive consumer sentiment score and a lower negative sentiment score than any of its competitors. This puts it in a strong leadership position in the AI-powered learning sector, according to Amesite. Learn more about how Amesite is disrupting education with AI. Amesite Inc., an artificial intelligence driven platform and course designer, provides online products in the United States. The company uses machine learning to offer a mass customized experience to learners. Its customers include businesses, universities and colleges, K-12 schools, and non-profit organizations.
