April also marked a break from the recent pattern that had seen non‑performing matured balloon loans dominate the newly delinquent list.
Of all loans that became delinquent during the month, 42% were classified as non‑performing matured balloons, while 40% were 30-days delinquent. The remainder were in foreclosure or real estate owned (REO). Across the newly delinquent universe, non‑performing matured balloon remained the single most common delinquency classification, in line with prior months.
At the property-type level, two of the five major sectors recorded rising delinquency rates in April while three posted declines.
Industrial saw a modest increase, with its delinquency rate rising 31 basis points to 0.96%. Trepp attributed that move largely to a single portfolio loan that went 30 days delinquent during the month. Multifamily delinquencies also moved higher, climbing 56 basis points to 7.71% and pushing above last month’s high-water mark. That increase was driven primarily by the two large multifamily loans in San Francisco and New York City that went 30 days delinquent.
On the downside, lodging recorded the largest improvement among the major property types. The sector’s delinquency rate fell 79 basis points to 6.52%, reversing an increase seen in March. Trepp noted that two large lodging loans shifted to “performing, matured balloon” status from non‑performing, helping to pull the overall lodging rate lower.
Billionaire investor and entrepreneur Elon Musk has settled an outstanding case with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The enforcement action was in regard to Musk’s takeover of Twitter, now called X.
The allegation was that Musk delayed his disclosure of his purchases of Twitter shares, thereby violating notice rules.
According to multiple reports, the agreement carries a $1.5 million penalty.
According to reports, Musk passed the 5% holding hurdle of the then-public firm on March 14, 2022. The deadline for notifying the holders was March 24th, ten days later, but Musk did not file by that date.
Musk eventually filed the necessary form on April 4th, 2022, potentially saving many millions of dollars, as Twitter’s shares would have risen in value once Musk disclosed his interest in purchasing shares in the firm. On April 4th, 2022, shares of Twitter popped by 27%.
Musk was sued by the SEC in January 2025 for violating established rules.
Musk eventually purchased Twitter and took it private for $44 billion, or $54.20 per share in cash. Before the deal was revealed, Twitter was valued at around $41 billion.
xAI acquired X for $33 billion in equity in March 2025. The combined firm is far different today than it was when Musk purchased it, a move described as saving free speech due to the extreme bias by top management at Twitter.
The $1.5 million is a pittance for Musk, who is the wealthiest person on the planet.
At the same time, it is believed that X has yet to cross the profitability threshold.
High-yield savings account rates finally saw their first major dips of 2026 – with another group of major banks reducing rates last week.
As of May 4, 2026, some online banks are still offering interest rates up to 5.00% APY, but these top APYs are usually limited by deposit size. This is still much better than the average of 0.38% APY, according to the FDIC.
Banks and credit unions are constantly adjusting their annual percentage yields (APYs) as markets react to Federal Reserve policy and inflation data, so staying up to date can make a real difference. Here’s where the best savings rates stand today — and what you should know before moving your money.

How High Yield Savings Accounts Work And Why Rates Matter?
High-yield savings accounts function just like traditional savings accounts, but they pay a much higher annual percentage yield (APY) — often 10 to 15 times more. You can see how these rates compare to the savings rates at the 10 largest banks in America – and these rates put them to shame.
“More major banks dropped their savings rates last week, but the top yielding accounts have remained steady.” – Robert Farrington
The banks and credit unions on this list typically always have above-average rates, so even if the Federal Reserve lowers rates and these accounts lower their rates, you’ll still be head.
For example, a $10,000 balance earning 4.00% APY will generate about $400 in interest per year, compared with less than $20 at a big-bank rate of 0.20%. That gap makes it worth tracking rate changes regularly and switching institutions if your current bank stops staying competitive.
However, we expect more rates to dip below that 4.00% level in the coming weeks.
What To Know Before Opening An Account
Before opening a new account, review the key details that determine how much you’ll earn — and how easily you can access your funds.
Watch For Intro Or Promo Rates: APYs can rise or fall at any time. But a strong introductory rate doesn’t guarantee long-term performance. None of the rates listed here are introductory, but some referral codes may only be temporary rates.
Transfer Limits: Federal rules no longer cap savings withdrawals at six per month, but many banks still impose limits.
Safety: Confirm that the institution is FDIC- or NCUA-insured, which protects up to $250,000 per depositor, per bank or credit union.
Access: Many top-yield accounts are online-only. Make sure you can deposit via mobile app and link external accounts for easy transfers.
These details help you separate truly high-performing savings options from accounts that look appealing but may include hidden limitations or slower rate adjustments.
How We Track And Verify Rates
At The College Investor, our goal is to help you make smart, confident decisions about your money. To create this list, our editorial team reviews savings account rates daily across more than 50 banks, credit unions, and fintechs. We verify data using each institution’s official website, rate disclosures, and regulatory filings.
Only accounts available to U.S. consumers and insured by the FDIC or NCUA are included.
Our coverage is independent and editorially driven – we never rank accounts based on compensation. While we may earn a referral fee when you open an account through certain links, this does not influence our recommendations or reviews. Our opinions are our own, based on a consistent evaluation of usability, fees, yields, and customer experience.
FAQs
How often do savings account rates change?
Banks can adjust rates daily or weekly based on market conditions.
Are online banks safe?
Yes — as long as they’re FDIC-insured. Verify coverage on the FDIC’s BankFind site.
Is interest on savings accounts taxable?
Yes. You’ll receive a 1099-INT if you earn $10 or more in interest.
Should I move my money if rates drop?
It depends on the difference in APY and your transfer limits, and frequent rate chasing can reduce returns if transfers take time.

AI music startup Udio has denied Sony Music Entertainment’s copyright infringement claims while acknowledging that it used audio scraped from YouTube to train its models.
In a filing with the US District Court for the Southern District of New York on Wednesday (April 29), which you can read here, Udio answered SonyMusic’s amended complaint, which also names Arista Music and Arista Records as plaintiffs.
Udio admitted that its models were built by feeding the system with “a vast amount of different kinds of sound recordings” gathered from publicly available sources, from which the models derived “a complex collection of statistical insights about the auditory characteristics of those recordings.”
The startup also acknowledged generating music files within seconds of receiving a user prompt, and that it charges users monthly fees to use its product and produce digital files.
“Udio admits that its product was originally free to users, with a limit of 600 music files per month. Udio further admits that on May 8, 2024, Udio introduced subscription tiers, with options that range from $10 a month for 1,200credits (which equate to 1,200 30-second clips per month), to $30 a month for 4,800credits (which equates to 4,800 30-second clips per month),” according to the filing.
“Udio admits that it obtained audio data from YouTube for use as training data.”
Udio’s answer to amended complaint
On the YouTube ripping allegations, Udio’s response was direct: “Udio admits that it obtained audio data from YouTube for use as training data,” adding that “it acquired some of its training data by utilizing YT-DLP.”
Major record labels sued Udio and its rival Suno in June 2024. In August 2024, Udio and Suno pretty much admitted that they used copyrighted recordings from the recording companies that sued them. However, they claimed that the use of copyrighted materials – owned by Sony Music Group, Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group – falls under the “fair use” exemption to US copyright law.
While Universal Music and Warner Music Group dropped their lawsuits against Udio after reaching settlements in October and in November, respectively, the Sony Music lawsuit against Udio remains.
Before UMG and Warner Music dropped their lawsuits, the labels amended their complaint in September 2025 to include claims that Udio “illegally scraped” YouTube videos in order to collect content on which to train its AI models.
Udio then filed a motion to dismiss the labels’ charge of illegal scraping of YouTube videos in October 2025, arguing that US copyright law doesn’t actually criminalize downloading of videos that are available to the public.
The YouTube scraping claims are “a gambit to try to evade application of the fair use doctrine,” lawyers for Udio wrote in the motion, which can be read in full here.
The record labels then shot back at Udio’s statement, saying the company “mischaracterizes” the labels’ legal arguments “and the legal landscape.”
The amended complaint in October (read here) alleged in paragraph 122 that Udio violated copyright laws by circumventing technological measures implemented by YouTube that controlled access to copyrighted works. In its response filed last week, Udio said “The allegations in this paragraph contain legal conclusions to which no response is required.”
“To the extent a response is required, Udio lacks knowledge or information sufficient to admit or deny the allegations of this paragraph concerning Plaintiffs’ copyrighted sound recordings, and on that basis denies those allegations. Udio admits that it obtained audio data from YouTube for use as training data, but otherwise denies any remaining allegations of this paragraph.”
Udio reaffirmed its “fair use” argument after the labels including Sony in October said “Udio cannot avoid liability for its willful copyright infringement by claiming fair use.”
“Udio admits that it obtained audio data from YouTube for use as training data, but otherwise denies any remaining allegations of this paragraph.”
Udio’s answer to amended complaint
In its latest response, Udio said: “To the extent there is copying of copyrightable expression, that copying constitutes fair use pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 107. Udio’s AI tool uses a back-end technological process, invisible to the public, in the service of creating an ultimately non-infringing new product. This is quintessential fair use.”
Udio accused Sony of copyright misuse, arguing: “Plaintiffs have engaged in anticompetitive activities that extend an unlawful monopoly over the production and commercialization of music.”
“Plaintiffs have engaged in anticompetitive activities that extend an unlawful monopoly over the production and commercialization of music.”
Udio’s answer to amended complaint
The AI company’s response comes weeks after Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein rejected its motion to dismiss Sony’s Digital Millennium Copyright Act circumvention claim, finding Sony had “plausibly allege[d] that YouTube employs technological measures that regulate access to its content and that Defendant circumvented them,” according to the April 15 order, which you can read here.
However, Judge Hellerstein said whether YouTube’s measures ultimately constitute access controls “requires a greater factual record than the pleadings contain.” The judge left the door open for Udio to renew its arguments “after a factual record is developed.”
Udio is asking the court to dismiss all claims with prejudice.
In March 2020, I watched my entire portfolio move in the same direction at once. Stocks down. Real estate under pressure. Two asset classes, one outcome. I thought I had built something diversified. I hadn’t, not really.
If you own stocks and real estate and consider yourself diversified, this is worth reading carefully. Because diversification has six dimensions. Most physicians are only covering one or two of them.

Why Physicians Are More Concentrated Than They Think
Before we get into the framework, there’s something worth naming that most financial content skips over.
Before you’ve made a single investment, you are already concentrated.
Your primary income is human capital tied to one profession, one license, one body showing up to work. That’s a significant single-point-of-failure that most asset allocation models don’t account for. Which means the bar for true diversification, for physicians specifically, is higher than it is for someone whose income is already spread across multiple sources.
That’s not a reason to feel behind. It’s just useful context for why getting this right matters more for us than for the average investor.
The Ray Dalio Standard, And the Honest Reality
Ray Dalio talks about what he calls the holy grail of investing. The idea is that holding enough truly uncorrelated assets can dramatically reduce portfolio risk without sacrificing much in the way of returns. He puts the number at around 13 to 15 uncorrelated assets.
When I first heard that, my reaction was somewhere between impressed and overwhelmed. Most physicians I know are working with two or three asset classes, not 15.
But the number isn’t really the point. The point is the principle. And the honest reality is that finding 13 to 15 truly uncorrelated assets is hard for most of us. We’re not running endowments. We have clinical schedules, limited bandwidth, and we’re building something sustainable alongside a demanding career.
So what do you do with that gap?
You get more intentional within the asset classes you already have. You stop assuming that because you own two different things, they’re actually behaving independently. And you start looking at your portfolio across more dimensions than just asset type.
That’s what this framework is for.
The Six Dimensions of True Diversification
1. Asset Class, And What’s Actually Inside It
This is where almost everyone starts. And it’s the right starting point. But I want to spend more time here than most people do, because even physicians who understand asset class diversification are usually thinking about it too narrowly.
The basic version goes like this: stocks and real estate are different asset classes. They respond to different economic forces. Having both is better than having only one. That’s true. But it stops short of what’s actually useful.
Think about what we mean when we say stocks. You probably already know that owning a single stock is very different from owning a broad index fund. Within equities, you can hold domestic and international exposure, large cap and small cap, growth and value, different sectors. The equity asset class has a whole internal structure to it. Most physicians who invest in the stock market understand this, at least intuitively.
Now apply that same thinking to real estate.
Most people hear “real estate” and think of it as one thing. But real estate has sub-asset classes just like equities do, and they don’t all behave the same way. Multifamily residential. Industrial. Self-storage. Medical office. Retail. Hospitality. Mobile home parks. Each of these responds differently to interest rate cycles, employment trends, demographic shifts, and consumer behavior.
Multifamily held up relatively well through the 2008 financial crisis because people still needed places to live. Retail got hit hard. Industrial and self-storage have had long runs because of e-commerce tailwinds and changing consumer habits. Medical office is driven by a completely different set of forces than any of those.
So when you say you own real estate, what does that actually mean? If everything you own is multifamily in the same market, you’re much more concentrated than the label “real estate investor” suggests. If you have exposure across different property types and different markets, you’re actually using the asset class the way it’s designed to be used.
A lot of physicians build their real estate portfolio deal by deal, chasing whatever looks good at the time. The result is concentration inside an asset class they thought was already diversifying them.
Dimension one isn’t just about owning different asset classes. It’s about understanding the internal structure of each one, and being intentional about where your exposure actually sits within it.
2. Correlation
This is the dimension that March 2020 made visceral for a lot of us.
Correlation measures how much two assets move together. Truly diversified assets have low correlation, meaning when one goes down, the other doesn’t necessarily follow.
The problem is that correlation isn’t static. Assets that look uncorrelated in normal markets can suddenly move together in a crisis. Liquidity dries up, sentiment shifts, and things that were supposed to zig when the market zagged, don’t.
This is why I now think about not just what I own, but how those assets have historically behaved relative to each other, and what happens to that relationship under stress. Normal market correlation is less useful information than stress correlation.
3. Liquidity
Stocks and real estate are not interchangeable when you need access to capital. A publicly traded position you can exit in a day. A real estate syndication with a 5 to 7 year hold, you can’t.
Illiquidity isn’t automatically bad. You’re often compensated for it with better returns. But it means you need to think carefully about whether your assets are liquid at the right times for your life. Are you thinking about a career transition, a sabbatical, a business investment in the next few years? Those questions should inform how much of your portfolio is locked up and for how long.
4. Time Horizon
Related to liquidity, but distinct. This is about matching your investments to when you actually need the money to work for you.
A long-term real estate fund with a 10-year hold serves a different purpose than capital you’re planning to redeploy in 18 months. Both can belong in a well-constructed portfolio. But treating them as interchangeable is how you end up with a mismatch between your investment structure and your actual life.
Ask yourself: what do I need this money to do, and when? Then look honestly at whether your investment timelines actually line up with that.
5. Tax Treatment
This is where physician-specific framing earns its place in the conversation.
The after-tax return is the real return. A real estate investment that generates passive losses and depreciation looks very different on paper than one that doesn’t. The tax efficiency of different asset classes, and the structures you use to hold them, can have a significant impact on what you actually keep.
If you haven’t sat down with a CPA who works with physician investors to look at how your portfolio is structured from a tax perspective, that’s worth prioritizing. A lot of physicians optimize for returns before tax and underoptimize for what stays in their pocket.
6. Geography
This is the most overlooked dimension on this list.
Single-market concentration in real estate is a real risk that’s easy to miss. If you have multiple properties in the same city, or heavy exposure to one regional economy, you’re more correlated than you think. Local job market shifts, population changes, municipal policy decisions, these things affect all of your properties at once if they’re all in the same place. Geography applies beyond real estate too. If your income, your practice, your home value, and your real estate investments are all tied to the same regional economy, that’s a form of concentration risk that doesn’t show up in a typical asset allocation breakdown.

The Self-Audit
Pull up whatever you use to track your investments and run it against these six dimensions. Not to grade yourself, but to see clearly.
How many asset classes do you hold, and what does the internal structure of each one actually look like? How correlated are they under stress, not just in normal conditions? Do you have the right balance of liquidity for where you are in your career? Are your time horizons matched to your actual goals? How is your portfolio taxed, and is there room to improve that? And is there geographic concentration hiding somewhere you haven’t looked?
Most physicians, if they’re honest, are missing coverage in at least two or three of these. That’s not a failure. It’s information. And information is what lets you build something more resilient going forward.
Stocks plus real estate is a start. But the physicians who build portfolios that actually hold up are the ones who go a layer deeper and ask: how do these things actually behave together, and where am I exposed in ways I haven’t fully accounted for?

On March 31, over a hundred of Baidu’s Apollo Go robotaxis simultaneously froze on the streets of Wuhan. Vehicles stalled on overpasses and elevated roads, trapping passengers for up to two hours.
A few weeks later, Beijing suspended all new autonomous driving permits nationwide. The suspension suspension blocked robotaxi companies from adding to their fleets, starting new tests, or expanding to additional cities, according to Bloomberg.
In the U.S., meanwhile, some autonomous vehicles are driving into street lights and even into the middle of ongoing crime scenes. In just one month in Austin, Tesla’s robotaxis crashed into a fixed object head on and in reverse, while also hitting trees, poles, buses and trucks. Waymo’s robotaxis are incapable of closing their own doors—and the company has taken to hiring DoorDashers to door dash and close the doors after a passenger gets out. In October 2023, a Cruise AV dragged a pedestrian 20 feet.
During the June 2025 anti-ICE protests in downtown Los Angeles, demonstrators smashed, spray-painted, and torched at least six Waymo robotaxis. The cars reportedly honked in unison as they burned, as activists claimed the cars’ camera data was shared with the LAPD and was representative of the surveillance state. As a result, Waymo suspended service in the downtown area and went on to pause service during subsequent protests. Still, no federal regulation followed.
In February this year, a Waymo blew past cop cars at a live crime scene in Atlanta. A month later, another blocked ambulances in Austin during an active shooter situation.
In L.A. in December, a Waymo was observed driving into an active crime scene; the driverless tech was unable to navigate the officer’s directions to reroute and leave the scene.
That month also witnessed probably the closest parallel to what occurred in Wuhan. A major power outage knocked out traffic signals across San Francisco, leading to Waymo’s fleet of 800-1,000 robotaxis blocking roads and impeding emergency vehicles. At a March 2 hearing about what happened to the fleet during the power outage, San Francisco’s Department of Emergency Management Executive Director Mary Ellen Carroll expressed outrage.
“What has started to happen is that our public safety officers and responders are having to be the ones to physically move” the robotaxis, Carroll said. “In a sense, they’re becoming a default roadside assistance for these vehicles, which we do not think is tenable.”
Waymo has since shipped a software update to the AVs, but there’s still no federal regulation.
States are trying to get cars off the road
The U.S. has no federal autonomous vehicle safety law. The SELF DRIVE Act of 2026, a bipartisan House bill, would create the first statute, yet it remains a draft. Earlier versions in 2017 and 2021 died without passage.
While federal regulation stalls, a separate movement is gaining traction at the state level: legislation to reduce how much Americans drive. The Brookings Institution found that California, Minnesota, Colorado, and Oregon now have laws requiring transportation agencies to mitigate vehicle miles traveled. In Colorado, this has already redirected $900 million from highway expansion toward bus rapid transit. Maryland, New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts are considering similar bills in 2026.
Autonomous vehicles deployed at scale are widely expected to increase total driving: empty robotaxis cruising between fares, commuters choosing longer trips, freight trucks running around the clock.
But Tony Han, founder and CEO of Chinese robotaxi startup WeRide, said at the Fortune Global Forum in Riyadh that AVs likely will never be 100% safe, but they would be 10 times safer than humans within a decade.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly evolving from an experimental capability into a core production input across industries. Public markets have responded accordingly, with firms perceived as AI beneficiaries experiencing significant multiple expansion—often ahead of any observable improvement in cash flows.
For financial analysts, the central question is not whether AI will transform business operations, but whether it will support sustainable economic profits. This distinction is critical. Markets tend to reward narratives in the short term, but over the long term, valuation converges toward realized cash flows and return on capital.
This blog evaluates AI adoption through a fundamental valuation lens, focusing on its implications for cash flows, risk, and portfolio construction.
