🔔 Gain an instant edge over Wall Street: https://stansberrydigest.com/ In this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan welcomes Greg Diamond back to the show. Greg is the editor of Ten Stock Trader, an advisory focused on trading using market analysis to find the best opportunities based on previous market patterns. Greg kicks things off by sharing his theme for 2026: time. He looked at the inflection points in January and is looking at the upcoming ones in April and May. January saw both technology and financial stocks peak before declining. And while Greg believes these sectors are oversold and will correct themselves slightly, the decline will continue. He says that AI taking over is part of this trend, and unlike other "creative destruction" (like the transition from horse-drawn carriages to automobiles) trends in the past, this one is developing much faster. Greg says looking at time cycles and understanding them is essential to prepare for where the market could be heading next. Next, Greg discusses his thoughts on various commodities. He recently traded several positions in silver for wins before the metal's crash and is currently watching to see where it goes from here. He's not as optimistic on oil and natural gas due to the lack of information that investors have outside of OPEC, but he is looking for breakthroughs that could have an impact on the wider market. Copper is another resource that he's interested in, and there are several plays that he believes folks can make. But he says understanding what fuels these movements is more important than why they're occurring. Finally, Greg lists his current trades and where he thinks market volatility is heading. He can't delve too deeply to be fair to his subscribers, but he's preparing to be extremely aggressive in his trades over the next few months. Greg then states that he does his best trading when he ignores what everyone else is saying. He'd rather focus on his monitors and charts than allow himself to be persuaded by outside voices. 0:00 Greg's standing in the U.S. Investing Championship; Understanding time cycles and pricing; What Greg does differently 14:47 Greg's thoughts on commodities; The "why" isn't important 31:20 Greg's current trades; Ignore the noise 45:55 Dan's final thoughts

Steve is the founder of New Trader U, a blog with thousands of articles plus online courses. Steve kicks things off by explaining how trading is math, detailing how its different components are formulaic. He says that understanding the "math" of expectancy for your returns can help you with managing your discipline, and knowing the risk-to-reward ratio for any trade is the first important step that every investor needs to take before they enter a trade. Steve notes that despite what many folks might believe, being right 50% of the time is pretty good. But even performing that well requires understanding the risks that your trades have. Next, Steve reflects on his early trading days, comparing his methodology and results then with his current strategies. Then he details one metric that determines profitability. It's the most important thing you need to be mindful of that will impact the profits your trades bring in, regardless of factors like win rates. And Steve analyzes the cons with modern trading that ease of entry has provided. Most individual investors don't realize these risks exist and stand poised to lose big. Finally, Steve discusses how to create an edge in trading as an individual investor despite the overwhelming odds. He then explains "positive expectancy," a mathematical formula that shows your average losses versus your average wins. Knowing this can help you more properly filter out volatility, which traders should keep in mind when establishing their position sizes and stop losses.

Andy is the co-founder of LikeFolio, a financial-technology company focused on providing its clients with actionable research based on consumer-driven data. He has a free report focused on a new wave of health care and AI that can inform investors of how to best prepare before it arrives. You can download the report here: https://stocktradesmith.com/ Andy kicks things off by sharing how LikeFolio evolved from being designed to create "like" portfolios for social media users based on the companies they and their friends are interested in to being geared toward investors and traders. He says that the data from social media and other publicly available sources is very powerful because it can show where consumer sentiment is for a product and can help estimate sales for a product before an earnings report is released. Andy then provides some of his background in trading, along with his rules for investing. Next, Andy states that investors need to have some guardrails in place to protect their capital when investing. However, he believes that there's no "one size fits all" method and that investors need to ensure that the rules they establish match their approach. Andy switches the topic to the ease and accessibility of trading with apps like Robinhood. But he warns users to beware leveraged exchange-traded funds – while they sound appealing because of the potential to triple gains, "poisonous" stocks in a fund could send you tumbling. He then gives his thoughts on how AI is changing the world and what he thinks is the next step in its development. Finally, Andy discusses how one company is currently hated due to its financials, but according to his data, consumers are gravitating toward it. He compares it with other stocks that lost money early on but turned into behemoths in today's market due to new customers consistently using their products. This company could follow in their steps based on his data.

🔔 Gain an instant edge over Wall Street: https://stansberrydigest.com/ In this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and John Engel welcome Dave Lashmet to the show. Dave is the editor of Stansberry Venture Technology, an advisory that takes a "venture capitalist" look at the market. Dave scours the market looking for little-known small-cap companies that are potentially producing the next wonder drug or technology. Dave kicks things off by discussing the first of three biopharmaceutical companies he's sharing that have monopolies in weight-loss drugs. He starts by showing how drugs gain their monopolies via patents, giving them "economic exclusivity." While companies might be targeting the same patients, the patents influence how they're being treated. The first company gains an edge by not only targeting folks suffering from obesity, but also by treating those with Type 2 diabetes. Dave also explains the contrast in mentality between the U.S. and other countries regarding obesity being preventable. And he provides info showing how obesity is a "slippery slope" and shares that a study found that participants who got off the drug gained back the weight they lost before. Next, Dave sums up how the first company has cleared all of the risks and expenses from clinical trials, while a close competitor still has to get past its trials due to unknown side effects. When asked about why folks would stay on a weight-loss pill for life, Dave points to how our culture has drastically changed over the years, from actively working on farms to passively working in cubicles. These drugs help balance out the resulting shift. Dave then transitions into the next company that has a drug that focuses on fatty liver disease. He explains how this distinction helps the company gain its monopoly due to how irreplaceable livers are. And similar to the first company, this drug will have lifelong consumers. And the good news for investors is that its only competitor causes weight gain. Finally, Dave presents the final company that tackles weight loss by focusing on genetics. Unlike the first two companies, this one treats patients with an injectable drug rather than a pill. However, it zeroes in on our natural "hunger switch," suppressing the users' appetites. Right now, the company is only waiting to get past trials, which puts it at a disadvantage compared with the other two. But Dave still believes that because of how it works, it's still set to stand beside the two pills. 0:00 The first weight-loss monopoly; The company's impact on Type 2 diabetes; Why the drug is effective long term 21:11 Why weight-loss drugs matter; The second weight-loss monopoly 39:06 The third weight-loss monopoly; Targeting a natural "hunger switch"; How all three companies are a solid combination 1:02:18 Dan's final thoughts

10 Stock Picks We Love: The KISS Approach to Market Volatility (Valentine's Day Edition)

In this special Valentine’s Day edition of The Wide Moat Show, Brad Thomas and Nick break down their KISS investing framework (Keep It Simple, Stupid) and share 10 stock picks they love right now. The core idea: buy high-quality companies, prioritize durable cash flow, reinvest dividends, and let compounding do the heavy lifting. Brad highlights two “boring is beautiful” REITs built for consistency, plus a surprise pick outside real estate.

In this episode of Being Exponential, Luke Lango breaks down the Iran conflict and its ripple effects across global markets — from energy and defense stocks to the accelerating AI arms race. We start with the geopolitical shockwaves from the Iran conflict and how markets are responding. Oil prices have surged and global stocks have shown volatility as investors react to disruptions in energy supply routes like the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for global oil transport. Luke explains why geopolitical tensions tend to trigger sector rotation, sending money into energy producers, defense contractors, and safe-haven assets while cyclical industries struggle. Next, we explore the intersection of AI and geopolitics. As governments increasingly treat AI as strategic infrastructure, defense spending, compute capacity, and energy security are becoming tightly linked. Luke explains why the AI boom isn’t just a technology story anymore — it’s becoming a national security and global power story. We also discuss the Block layoffs and the growing trend of AI-driven workforce restructuring. Block recently cut thousands of jobs as part of a shift toward AI and automation, a move that even pushed the company’s stock higher as investors rewarded efficiency. Luke breaks down what this means for the future of work, corporate strategy, and market leadership. Finally, we dive into the drama unfolding in prediction and betting markets, and why these platforms are becoming increasingly influential in shaping investor expectations about politics, macro trends, and global events. If you want to understand how war, AI infrastructure, energy markets, layoffs, and prediction markets are converging to shape the next phase of the global economy — this episode connects the dots. 🎧 Subscribe to Being Exponential with Luke Lango for weekly insights on AI investing, macro trends, geopolitics, and exponential technology. 📍Timestamps📍 00:58 - The Iran Conflict 28:16 - Block Layoffs 42:42 - Betting Markets Visit Our Website: https://investorplace.com/hypergrowthinvesting/ 🔔 Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/c/HypergrowthInvesting?sub_confirmation=1 #BeingExponential #LukeLango #IranConflict #AIInvesting #EnergyMarkets #DefenseStocks #PredictionMarkets #StockMarketNews #ArtificialIntelligence #hashtags

In this episode of Being Exponential, Luke Lango breaks down the implications of the newly released Citrini Research paper, “The 2028 Intelligence Crisis,” and what it could mean for markets, AI infrastructure, and the next wave of exponential investing. Citrini Research Paper Link: https://www.citriniresearch.com/p/2028gic The report argues that we may be approaching a global intelligence bottleneck — a moment when compute, energy, data, and geopolitical competition collide in ways that reshape economic power. Luke explains what the “2028 Intelligence Crisis” thesis really means, whether it’s credible, and how markets are beginning to price it in. From there, we dive into the Physical AI trade — the shift from digital AI (chatbots, copilots, software automation) to embodied AI in robots, autonomous vehicles, drones, edge devices, and industrial systems. If intelligence becomes scarce and strategic, distribution and deployment become critical. That’s where Physical AI comes in. We also unpack what Luke calls the HALO Trade — the higher-order beneficiaries of AI buildout and deployment. These are the companies positioned not just in chips and data centers, but in the energy, materials, networking, and hardware layers required to support exponential intelligence growth. If AI isn’t a bubble — but a structural reordering of the global economy — then the implications for capital allocation, sector leadership, and market structure are enormous.

In this episode of Being Exponential, Luke Lango dives into the next evolution of artificial intelligence — and what it means for markets. We start with a breakdown of physical AI vs. digital AI. Digital AI powers chatbots, copilots, and software automation. Physical AI powers robots, autonomous vehicles, industrial systems, and real-world machines. Luke explains why this distinction matters — and why the shift toward embodied, real-world AI could define the next wave of exponential growth. Then we zoom out to look at index performance, including the historic moment as the Dow Jones Industrial Average hits 50,000. What’s really driving the move? Is it broad economic strength — or a narrow AI-fueled rally lifting the major indexes? We also tackle the intersection of politics and AI. From regulation and industrial policy to national competitiveness and capital flows, governments are increasingly shaping the trajectory of AI innovation. Luke breaks down how political dynamics could accelerate — or disrupt — the AI boom. If you’re trying to understand where the market is headed as AI moves from code to concrete, from software to robots, and from innovation to national strategy — this episode connects the dots. 🎧 Subscribe to Being Exponential with Luke Lango for weekly insights on AI investing, macro trends, and exponential change. 📍Timestamps📍 02:22 - Physical AI vs. Digital AI 14:31 - QQQ & IGV 22:22 - Politics in the AI Funnel 39:32 - The DOW hits 50,000 Visit Our Website: https://investorplace.com/hypergrowthinvesting/ 🔔 Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/c/HypergrowthInvesting?sub_confirmation=1 #hashtags#Dow50000 #DowJones #StockMarketNews #MarketRally #IndexInvesting #BullMarket #WallStreet#PhysicalAI #DigitalAI #AIRevolution #AIStocks #Robotics #AutonomousSystems #FutureOfAI

In this episode of Being Exponential, Luke Lango breaks down the massive shifts happening across technology, markets, and liquidity — and why investors are entering a new phase of the AI cycle. We start with the ongoing SaaSpocalypse — the sharp selloff and structural reset hitting software stocks. As artificial intelligence becomes more vertically integrated and capable, the traditional SaaS middle layer is under pressure. Luke explains why this isn’t just a correction — it could be a long-term repricing of the entire software sector. Then we pivot to the opposite side of the trade: the explosive new wave of AI capital expenditures (capex). Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, OpenAI and others are committing hundreds of billions of dollars toward AI data centers, chips, infrastructure, and compute. Luke connects the dots between this spending surge and the hardware winners emerging from the AI arms race. From there, we zoom out to discuss liquidity in the markets — how capital flows, monetary conditions, and financial system dynamics are shaping asset prices beneath the surface.

The SaaSpocalypse is only the Beginning...

In this episode of Being Exponential, Luke Lango breaks down the massive shifts happening across technology, markets, and liquidity — and why investors are entering a new phase of the AI cycle. We start with the ongoing SaaSpocalypse — the sharp selloff and structural reset hitting software stocks. As artificial intelligence becomes more vertically integrated and capable, the traditional SaaS middle layer is under pressure. Luke explains why this isn’t just a correction — it could be a long-term repricing of the entire software sector. Then we pivot to the opposite side of the trade: the explosive new wave of AI capital expenditures (capex). Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, OpenAI and others are committing hundreds of billions of dollars toward AI data centers, chips, infrastructure, and compute. Luke connects the dots between this spending surge and the hardware winners emerging from the AI arms race. From there, we zoom out to discuss liquidity in the markets — how capital flows, monetary conditions, and financial system dynamics are shaping asset prices beneath the surface. And finally, we tackle Bitcoin and crypto. If this is a liquidity-driven cycle, why isn’t Bitcoin behaving the way many expected? Luke shares his view on what crypto’s current performance is signaling — and what needs to change for the next breakout. If you want to understand how AI infrastructure, market liquidity, SaaS disruption, and crypto cycles all intersect — this episode connects the dots. 🎧 Subscribe to Being Exponential with Luke Lango for weekly insights on AI investing, macro trends, and exponential change. 📍Timestamps📍 00:49 - SaasPocalpyse FallOut 14:00 - Current AI Playbook 22:10 - Liquidity & Bitcoin Visit Our Website: https://investorplace.com/hypergrowthinvesting/ 🔔 Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/c/HypergrowthInvesting?sub_confirmation=1 #hashtags #BeingExponential #LukeLango #SaaSpocalypse #SaaS #SoftwareStocks #AIInvesting #AISpending #AICapex #DataCenters #MarketLiquidity #LiquidityCycle #Bitcoin #CryptoMarkets #ArtificialIntelligence #StockMarketNews #TechStocks #ExponentialGrowth

Nvidia just delivered a massive earnings report — 73% sales growth and 82% operating income growth — beating analyst estimates and guiding higher. So why didn’t NVDA rally? In this episode of Navellier Market Buzz, Crystal and Louie break down why profit taking, covered call option writing, and market mechanics may have pressured the stock — despite explosive growth. With CEO Jensen Huang declaring that the “agentic AI inflection point has arrived,” is Nvidia still one of the best AI stocks to buy on the dip? Meanwhile, fixed mortgage rates have fallen below 6% and the 10-year Treasury yield is sitting at its lowest level in three years. Are we on the verge of an interest rate collapse — and what does that mean for stocks in March? We also discuss: • Why bond yields and mortgage rates are falling • Whether investors should take profits or accumulate strong stocks on dips • President Donald Trump’s proposed “rate-payer protection pledge” and what it means for AI data center energy demand • The wave of tariff refund lawsuits filed in the United States Court of International Trade and implications for the federal budget • Energy price risks amid ongoing Iran negotiations • And a preview of earnings next week, including Ciena (CIEN) Is this the start of a new bull leg fueled by falling rates — or a warning sign of economic slowdown?

Market Swings

View the archive
Welcome to The 19th Hole on Market Swings — our post-round sit-down where the stories get real (and the wagers get risky). In this episode, Josh chats with Alissa Kacar (aka @newladygolfer) after a hot, windy scramble in Southern California conditions — Santa Ana winds, tough lies, and a short game that showed up. Alissa breaks down why she’s built such a loyal following by documenting every shot of her golf journey with total authenticity — including the moments you might want to delete. She shares the hilarious Rams Hill bunker story where she “baseball swung” a shot, the sand slid out from under her, and somehow… it was still a good one. From there, the convo goes everywhere golf fans love: the best courses she’s ever played (her “religious golf experiences” at Pebble Beach, Riviera, and Royal County Down), why Torrey Pines is an underrated local blessing, and her take on social golf rules — mulligans, breakfast balls, improving lies (within reason), and why you shouldn’t be punished for landing in the fairway divot. Plus, rapid fire hits: favorite club (pitching wedge), pre-round snacks, post-round fish tacos, walking vs riding, and her dream foursome (with a meaningful personal pick) — and a pro spot that goes to Justin Rose (with honorable mentions for Jon Rahm and Tiger Woods).

Playing Through Volatility (Santa Ana Winds, Bad Lies & Big Bets) with @Newladygolfer

Welcome to The 19th Hole on Market Swings — our post-round sit-down where the stories get real (and the wagers get risky). In this episode, Josh chats with Alissa Kacar (aka @newladygolfer) after a hot, windy scramble in Southern California conditions — Santa Ana winds, tough lies, and a short game that showed up. Alissa breaks down why she’s built such a loyal following by documenting every shot of her golf journey with total authenticity — including the moments you might want to delete. She shares the hilarious Rams Hill bunker story where she “baseball swung” a shot, the sand slid out from under her, and somehow… it was still a good one. From there, the convo goes everywhere golf fans love: the best courses she’s ever played (her “religious golf experiences” at Pebble Beach, Riviera, and Royal County Down), why Torrey Pines is an underrated local blessing, and her take on social golf rules — mulligans, breakfast balls, improving lies (within reason), and why you shouldn’t be punished for landing in the fairway divot. Plus, rapid fire hits: favorite club (pitching wedge), pre-round snacks, post-round fish tacos, walking vs riding, and her dream foursome (with a meaningful personal pick) — and a pro spot that goes to Justin Rose (with honorable mentions for Jon Rahm and Tiger Woods). And yes… we leave room for the wager. (You’ll want to see this one.)

GET LARRY’S TRADE SETUPS NOW: https://www.getlarrystrades.com 📍 In this episode: Today, Larry Benedict, Eric Shamilov, and Clint Brewer cut through the noise of a chaotic market week to discuss why crude oil is surging past $77 while the S&P stubbornly refuses to price in the risk. They dig into what a hot number means for inflation and why the bond market's initial "flight to safety" rally has already reversed. Larry also explains why he sees Nvidia as a potential long-term trap for retail investors and shares the one Mag Seven name worth buying on weakness. On top of all that, they connect the dots between the Iran conflict, Trump's upcoming China meeting, and a geopolitical chess match that could be driving oil as much as any battlefield development. 🕒 Timestamps: 3:42 - War Started.
