The Biography, Life, Career, Wealth Of Moe Kanneh

~2.1 mins read

Momolu Anthony "Moe" Kanneh, known to many as Moe Kanneh, is an accomplished entrepreneur, artist manager, and community advocate with deep roots in both the entertainment and senior care industries. Born in Liberia, Moe moved to the United States at the age of two, growing up in Providence, Rhode Island. After time spent in Colorado, he now calls Minnesota home. Moe attended Osseo High School and later pursued a degree in accounting at Minneapolis Community and Technical College (MCTC), which laid the groundwork for his business ventures.

In 2015, Moe founded Busyboyz Management Group, marking his first step into the entertainment world. Through this company, he managed a diverse roster of artists, including Liberian superstar Togar Howard, building a name for himself as a dedicated manager with a vision for artist success. His work quickly expanded, and he became part-owner of a premier Minneapolis nightlife venue, where he established Club Bantu, the city’s first Afrobeat club in downtown. Club Bantu attracted international talent, including Wizkid, whose 2017 show Moe hosted. This event gained citywide attention, with the mayor of Minneapolis proclaiming an official "Wiz Day" and presenting Wizkid with the key to the city. Moe’s venue also welcomed other African stars, making it a cultural landmark for Afrobeat and African music in Minneapolis.

Driven by a commitment to artist development, Moe later founded Time Media One, a media platform focused on guiding emerging talent in building a strong online presence and honing their craft. Through this venture, Moe provided invaluable mentorship to up-and-coming artists like Yung Baller from Sierra Leone, helping them elevate their careers and reach broader audiences.

In recent years, Moe shifted his focus to a deeply personal mission: supporting senior care in the United States. He founded Azalea Homes LLC in Minnesota, an organization dedicated to providing compassionate care for seniors. Under Moe's leadership, Azalea Homes has created employment opportunities for caregivers while delivering high-quality support to its residents. Moe’s vision for Azalea Homes goes beyond traditional senior care; he’s committed to enhancing the quality of life for the elderly and ensuring they receive the dignity and respect they deserve.

Looking to the future, Moe envisions expanding his impact on both his local community and his homeland. In addition to investing in real estate across the Twin Cities, he plans to establish a nonprofit dedicated to empowering Liberian youth, helping them access resources, pursue their dreams, and create brighter futures.

Moe’s love for entertainment remains a driving force. One of his proudest achievements is founding the AfroReggae Festival, an annual event that brings international talent to audiences in Minnesota and Arizona, celebrating the richness of African and Caribbean music and culture. A passionate supporter of the arts, Moe continues to work behind the scenes, helping foster talent and promote cultural exchange.

Outside of work, Moe is an avid sports enthusiast and traveler, continually inspired by new cultures and experiences. A true "jack of many trades," he remains dedicated to making a positive impact, whether in entertainment, senior care, or community building.

Nvidia Supplier Astera Labs Surges On Strong Q3 Results

~1.3 mins read

Astera Labs (ALAB) shares are jumping around 30% Tuesday morning, after the Nvidia (NVDA) supplier reported on Monday strong third-quarter earnings results on the back of demand for its artificial intelligence (AI) products.

The company, which makes chip-based connectivity products to boost the efficiency of AI, reported quarterly revenue of $113.1 million, up 47% from the prior quarter and 206% year-over-year, while showing a net loss of $7.6 million, or 5 cents a share.

It also forecast fourth-quarter revenue of between $126 million and $130 million and earnings per share between 4 cents to 6 cents.

Astera, which went public in March, said in its initial public offering (IPO) filing that its customers include several key players in the AI space. Apart from Nvidia, they include Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Intel (INTC).

In a note released Monday, Jeffferies analysts said the company "looks to be firing on all cylinders heading into 2025."

"Lots to love about this report with strength across a combination of products with demand from both NVDA and multiple AI ASIC platforms (likely AMZN & GOOG)," the broker said. Jefferies has given the stock a buy rating with a $69.65 price target.

An application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) is a custom-designed chip built for a specific use or application.

Astera shares are up about 71% so far for the year.

Here's What Early Voters Said Influenced Their Presidential Decision The Most

~1.0 mins read

Across all political parties, the highest portion of early voters said the economy was influential in determining who they voted for in this presidential race.

According to a survey conducted by Redfin from the end of October through early November, 63% of voters said the economy was a deciding factor in their vote and inflation was the second-leading concern for voters across parties. According to a recent Gallup survey, more than half of Americans say they and their families are financially worse off today than four years ago.

Both presidential candidates have made the economy a cornerstone of their campaigns. Vice President Kamala Harris has focused her proposals on housing, taxes, and small businesses. Former president Donald Trump's economic agenda is geared toward foreign trade, U.S. manufacturing and targeted tax reductions.

Early voters who supported former President Donald Trump cited immigration as the most impactful factor, with the economy following second. The majority of early voters who supported Vice President Kamala Harris were concerned about protecting democracy and access to abortion. The economy was the fourth concern for Harris voters.
