==================== Given a string that may contain lowercase English letters and a special wildcard character '*', implement a function that determines if the string is a palindrome. The wildcard character '*' can match any single character.
For example: - "racecar" is a palindrome. - "r*cecar" is a palindrome ('*' matches 'a'). - "r*cec*r" is a palindrome (both '*' match 'a'). - "hello" is not a palindrome. - "h*llo" is not a palindrome (no single character can make it a palindrome). - "a*" is a palindrome ('*' matches 'a'). - "*" is a palindrome ('*' matches itself or any single character).
Write a function is_wildcard_palindrome(text: str) -> bool that returns True if the string is a palindrome considering the wildcard, and False otherwise.

Tata Power whose core business is to generate, transmit and distribute electricity has made no money to investors in the last one decade. That is a big blunder considering it is one of the largest power generation companies in the country. One of the reasons is the company's huge debt levels which stood at ₹43,559 crore at the end of March 2021 compared to the company’s market capitalisation of ₹44,447 crore.
Spiking bond yields driving sharp losses in tech stocks
A spike in interest rates since the start of the year has accelerated a rotation out of high-growth technology stocks and into value stocks poised to benefit from a reopening of the economy. The Nasdaq has fallen more than 10% over the past month as the Dow has soared to record highs, with a spike in the 10-year US Treasury yield acting as the main catalyst. It recently surged to a cycle high of more than 1.60% after starting the year below 1%. But according to Jim Paulsen, the Leuthold Group's chief investment strategist, rising interest rates do not represent a long-term threat to the stock market. Paulsen expects the 10-year yield to cross 2% by the end of the year.
A spike in interest rates and its impact on the stock market depends on the economic backdrop, according to Paulsen. Rising interest rates amid a strengthening economy "may prove no challenge at all for stocks," Paulsen said.
