In a new short video powered by Unreal Engine 5 shared by TeaserPlay, Albert Wesker, Nemesis, Karl Heisenberg, Lady Dimitrescu, and others appear together for a reunion that looks quite frightening, thanks to the power of the latest version of the engine by Epic. With CAPCOM using the excellent RE Engine for all its games since the launch of Resident Evil VII: Biohazard, it is unlikely that the Japanese publisher will shift to Unreal Engine 5 for the next entry in the series, but the video still gives a good idea on how a future entry in the series could look when it launches in a few years....

GameStop’s chairman, Ryan Cohen, had precipitated a fierce rally in Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ: BBBY) shares back in March when RC Ventures – the fund managed by Mr. Cohen – acquired a 9.8 percent stake in the meme stock. Well, Mr. Cohen’s latest moves are sure to spur questions as to whether the top is finally in for the seemingly unstoppable meme stock. As we had noted in an earlier post, Bed Bath & Beyond shares are currently in a gamma squeeze, bolstered by a relatively benign macroeconomic investor sentiment and copious fuel in the form of sky-high short interest that is now being exploited through large-scale, short-dated call buying activity....

TSMC, on the other hand, is faring exceptionally well with its own 4nm version, with a previous rumor claiming that it has over a 70 percent yield rate....
