Summary

In today’s episode, we break down why beef prices are still climbing — and why Canadians may need to swap burgers for hot dogs this summer. Then we look at Sam Altman’s World ID as it rolls out human-verification tools across apps like Zoom and DocuSign, raising fresh questions about biometric data and trust. Plus, a quick look at rising geopolitical risk and what higher energy prices could mean for inflation. The Peak Daily is produced in partnership with reframevid.com
