I really like this MCP — it basically acts as middleware between LLMs and Plaid, allowing you to connect your bank accounts to Era, and then have LLMs connect to Era via MCP to access those bank accounts.

Now, sure, there’s a lot of risks to doing this in terms of giving LLMs access to your financial data, but if you did want to give Claude your financials, this is the way to do it!

The service also has a lot of pretty clever functionality such as categorizing transactions that then gets applied across whatever LLMs you have connected.

SpaceX at $1.6-2t would challenge Meta for spot #6, potentially slotting in behind Amazon. When they qualify, passive funds managing $20t must buy. Index funds can’t raise cash. They sell existing holdings.

The mechanics become self-reinforcing. Index funds sell existing mega-caps to buy new entrants. Lower mega-cap prices trigger momentum strategies to sell further. Additional selling creates more pressure on the very stocks index funds track.
