Dubai has opened another record-breaking attraction: the deepest diving pool in the world

At 60 meters deep, the Deep Dive Dubai attraction has stolen the record from Poland’s Deep-Spot, which has a depth of over 45 meters.

The pool has enough water to fit six Olympic-sized swimming pools and is around four times bigger than any other diving pool in the world.

The facility is open by invitation only but the public will have the chance to dive into the action later this year.

Inside the ‘sunken city’

According to Deep Dive Dubai, the pool contains a post-apocalyptic “sunken city” that features various city settings, including benches, streetlights, and storefronts.

Slightly further down, swimmers can see an apartment with a bedroom, kitchen, dining area, and a garage featuring cars, motorbikes, arcade games, and a pool table.

56 underwater cameras surround the pool as well as a sound system that can relay messages to divers and create underwater soundscapes.

Dubai is already home to the world’s tallest skyscraper and the world’s largest mall

Currently, the pool is only open to people by invitation, but it will open to the general public later this year.

Nasdaq drops 1.84% amid turbulent week; investors pivot to cyclical and value sectors from high-growth tech.

U.S. equity markets wrapped up a turbulent week with mixed results. The Nasdaq Composite fell 1.84%, marking its worst week for large-cap technology stocks since November, while the S&P 500 remained largely unchanged. Investors are weighing concerns about artificial intelligence and potential overinvestment in high-growth areas.

Meanwhile, smaller-cap and value-oriented stocks continued to add to their year-to-date gains. Market participants rotated into cyclical sectors that had lagged, reflecting a shift in investor sentiment and appetite for risk outside the traditional tech heavyweights.

Analysts say this rotation highlights the broader market’s evolving dynamics, as growth concerns collide with opportunities in underappreciated areas. Stay tuned for further developments as the market digests these trends.

Wall Street plummets as tech stocks and Bitcoin fall, raising concerns about job market and economic stability.

Wall Street took a sharp hit Thursday as technology stocks and Bitcoin plunged, reigniting worries over the job market and global economic stability. Kyle Rodda from Capital.com breaks down how Alphabet and Qualcomm’s earnings may signal broader tech weakness.

Bitcoin’s recent drop also rattled crypto markets, with Coinbase shares falling sharply. Rodda explains how much of the decline is driven by market fundamentals versus shifting investor sentiment, and how rising AI expenditures are affecting investor confidence in tech.

The surge in unemployment claims, coupled with falling bond yields, is prompting concern over overall market stability.
