Analysts are also expecting a round of lower price devices to be announced in the spring. Meanwhile, California Governor Gavin Newsom has issued an executive order aimed at addressing the potential risks of AI.

year ending in January 2028 or got $673 billion. Shares of Infinity are up nearly 4% this week. That's all for today. Have a great weekend and we'll see you right back here next week.
