 | Friday, February 6, 2026 | | | Good Morning! On this day in 1952, Princess Elizabeth became Queen Elizabeth II after her father, King George VI, died in his sleep following a long illness. The Winter Olympics opening ceremony is today in Italy, and our daily Olympics coverage opens as well with our top lead story.

This week, The Flyover team is in Colorado, meeting in person to plan how to make The Flyover even better in 2026. As a result, Friday and Saturday's editions will be abbreviated, and we'll be back to normal on Sunday. Today's sponsor is GoldCo, who's sharing how a little-known, IRS-approved loophole could help protect your savings from inflation and growing national debt. You can explore the details for free in their latest guide. | | | |  Winter Olympics Officially Open Today
The 2026 Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony kicks off today in Italy in the most far-flung Winter Games ever, with roughly 250 miles between Milan's arenas and Cortina's mountain venues. Tonight's opening ceremony will take place at Milan's San Siro Stadium, repurposed from a soccer venue to host the event. The musical extravaganza is expected to draw about 60,000 live spectators. The live broadcast window runs 2-5 p.m. ET for U.S. viewers, putting all the pageantry right into the middle of the workday. Here's how to watch. Americans have participated in every Winter Olympics since the very first in 1924, piling up 330 total medals and 114 gold ones over the last century. Team USA has found the podium in almost every sport in the Winter Olympics (we've never won a medal in biathlon), but the Games this year added a brand-new event in ski mountaineering, an event no one has yet won. Here's the full Olympics event schedule. | Stocks Slide as Tech and Bitcoin Fall The Dow Jones Industrial Average tumbled Thursday as a sharp sell-off in big tech rattled Wall Street, with Amazon plunging 10% in after-hours trading after it estimated roughly $200 billion in future spending. The tech-heavy Nasdaq took the brunt of the damage, dragged down by fears that massive artificial intelligence investments are pushing profitability out further than investors expected. Bitcoin slid about 13%, falling below $64,000 for the first time since late 2024, as investors pulled back from riskier assets and doubts grew about crypto's role as a safe haven. Analysts said heavy liquidations and institutional selling are accelerating the move, tying the cryptocurrency slump more tightly to the broader tech-led market rout. | Car Insurance Costs Drop Nationally Car insurance prices fell 6% nationally in 2025 to an average of $2,144 for full coverage after surging 46% from 2022 to 2024, according to a new analysis. Some states saw dramatic relief with Wyoming dropping 30%, Iowa falling 25% and Arkansas declining 23%. However, 10 states bucked the trend with New Jersey rising 20% and Washington, D.C., climbing 18% to become the nation's most expensive city for full-coverage insurance at an average of $4,017 annually. Analysts said insurers' improved financial margins now allow them to cut rates and compete for customers. The report projects a modest 1% national increase in 2026.
