EDGI is now 99.6% of the way to his FIRE number with +14.4% dividend income growth for the quarter, while Derek crossed €7,000 in trailing dividend income, up 14% year over year. On the news desk: why the US Dividend Aristocrats (NOBL) are outrunning software in 2026, Palantir (PLTR) CEO Alex Karp calling AI token pricing a "wealth tax" on business, and whether AI agents should be taxed after OpenAI's reported 5% equity offer to the US government. Stocks we get into include Accenture (ACN), Wolters Kluwer (WKL.AS), VICI Properties (VICI), Vopak (VPK.AS), General Mills (GIS), Paychex (PAYX), ADP (ADP), Big Yellow Group (BYG.L), British American Tobacco (BATS.L), Shell (SHEL.L), Legal & General (LGEN.L), NN Group (NN.AS), Alibaba (BABA), Microsoft (MSFT) and Apple (AAPL). Plus Q2 hikes from JPMorgan Global Growth & Income (JGGI.L), 3i Group (III.L) and LondonMetric (LMP.L). We close with listener Q&A on low-yield growth stocks, the ones that got away, and how we'd invest €500 a year for a newborn.
