We also unpack why the Dow dropped over 300 points following renewed tariff threats tied to Greenland and what it means for global markets.Next, we analyze China’s Q4 economic growth slowdown and its impact on commodities, supply chains, and U.S. stocks. We discuss Meta’s future as AI spending ramps up, share a group of stocks built for long-term holding, and give our outlook on Robinhood ($HOOD) following insider selling.We also tackle concerns around OpenAI’s cash burn, ads, and rising competition, highlight beaten-down stocks that could be primed for a rebound, and close with an important conversation on whether buying a home in 2026 makes sense in today’s interest-rate environment.Invest Fest Tickets: investfest.com#MarketMondays #EarnYourLeisure #Investing #StockMarket #Gold #Silver #DowJones #ChinaEconomy #Meta #Robinhood #OpenAI #LongTermInvesting #BuyingAHome #WealthBuildingSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on Market Mondays we’re getting tactical and long-term: your futures trading tip of the week, the biggest mistakes younger investors make chasing fast wins, and the most important investing lessons this year reinforced. We also get personal about the mindset shifts that matter—what we used to disagree with early on, then changed our mind about later, and the questions people should be asking if they actually want to build wealth over decades (not just catch a lucky trade).Then we dive into what’s moving markets right now: Oracle as a business and investment, whether the AI narrative tied to SoftBank/OpenAI has pushed expectations too far, and what really caused Friday’s sell-off—plus whether it quietly changed market structure more than most people realize. We break down the Coinbase vs. MicroStrategy vs. IBIT debate, talk about whether we’re headed toward a real correction or just another emotional shakeout, and if the market is broadening beyond tech or setting up a head fake before leadership narrows again.We also hit the high-volatility conversations: Super Micro’s relevance in AI infrastructure, how elite traders handle ES and NQ moving in sync, and whether leveraged ETFs like NVDL/AMDL are advanced tools—or long-term portfolio destroyers in disguise. Plus: quantum computing (obvious leaders vs. sleeper names), and a real discussion on how to balance fitness, family, investing, travel, and content creation without burning out. And we’re joined by Derrick Hayes to talk about his business journey and what it really takes to scale.#MarketMondays #Investing #Stocks #FuturesTrading #DayTrading #LongTermInvesting #FinancialLiteracy #WealthBuilding #AI #Oracle #Crypto #Bitcoin #Coinbase #MicroStrategy #IBIT #ETFs #LeveragedETFs #NVDL #AMDL #TechStocks #MarketNews #TradingPsychology #RiskManagement #QuantumComputing #Entrepreneurship #DerrickHayes #EarnYourLeisureSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on Market Mondays, we kick things off with our Futures Trading Tip of the Week and a breakdown of the biggest investing mistake of the year. We dive into the shocking rebound of Carvana joining the S&P 500 after nearly going bankrupt — debating whether it’s a true comeback story or a sign the market is getting reckless again. We also break down the massive bidding war for Warner Bros Discovery, who needs WBD the most to survive the next decade, and what this means for the future of media. Caleb Silver, Editor-in-Chief of Investopedia, joins us with expert data and insight throughout the discussion.We compare Paramount’s heavy debt load to Netflix’s growth and free cash flow dominance and question whether a Netflix–WBD deal would spark a new era of media consolidation or run into regulatory roadblocks. From there, we shift to AI and corporate strategy, analyzing IBM’s $11B acquisition of Confluent and whether M&A is becoming the quiet force powering the next leg of the AI boom. We also cover holiday spending vs weak investor sentiment, whether investors should rotate into safer stocks, and what Wednesday’s Fed decision could mean for markets heading into 2026.To wrap up, we go rapid-fire: the most attractive stocks currently dipping for LEAPs and swing trades, which companies are less likely to be corrupt or mismanaged, whether failed AI bets could force bailouts in tech, Bitcoin’s next move toward $65K or $70K, Apple’s potential talent crisis after losing multiple key executives, and if an oil collapse into the $30s could make the entire energy sector uninvestable. A packed episode with strategy, clarity, and expert perspective. #MarketMondays #EarnYourLeisure #CalebSilver #Investopedia #Investing #StockMarket #Bitcoin #OptionsTrading #AIStocks #MediaMergers #Carvana #Apple #OilPrices #WealthBuilding #FinancePodcast #EYLSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings break down the strategic moves and under-the-radar companies driving the explosive AI sector. Troy Millings takes viewers behind the scenes of EY University, sharing insights on how the AI revolution is being monetized—not just through household names like Nvidia, Broadcom, and AMD, but also through key players that keep the tech ecosystem running smoothly.Dive into the analogy of the AI ecosystem modeled after the human body: Nvidia stands as the heart, Broadcom as the veins, and Fabrinet emerges as a crucial valve accelerating connectivity. Troy highlights how diligent research led to the identification of Fabrinet and then pivots to discuss the soaring memory sector, featuring Micron and Western Digital.A major spotlight is placed on SanDisk, Western Digital’s flash storage spin-off, which recently went public and saw an impressive performance spike. Learn why immediate demand for memory and flash storage, underscored by Samsung’s inability to fulfill all orders, has made SanDisk a leader in SSD and flash—and why its addition to the S&P 500 could mean major index fund investments are about to flow in.Ian Dunlap offers trading tactics for both beginners and advanced traders, explaining the importance of targeting trades differently on Mondays and Fridays versus the rest of the week to maximize gains and protect capital.This clip is jam-packed with actionable game for investors and traders seeking to decode the tech boom—spotlighting not just the well-known names, but also the hidden gems set to benefit most from ongoing AI development.If you’re ready to learn, execute, and take advantage of momentous opportunities in the evolving tech landscape, this is the clip you can’t afford to miss.*Hashtags:* #MarketMondays #AIStocks #TechInvesting #SanDisk #Nvidia #Broadcom #Fabrinet #SSD #FlashMemory #StockMarket #SP500 #TradingTips #WealthBuilding #FinancialEducation #EYUniversitySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Bitcoin’s slide has the entire market asking the same question: is this the beginning of real trouble, or the setup for the biggest buying opportunity of the year? This week on Market Mondays, we break down the volatility across crypto, AI, and equities as investors brace for major moves. From Peter Thiel unloading all his Nvidia and cutting 76% of his Tesla stake, to MicroStrategy trading below its net asset value, we analyze whether these are smart exits or signals of deeper cracks forming in the system.At the same time, the tech world is flashing warning signs—Meta is down 23%, Palantir is down 16%, and CoreWeave has crashed over 50%. With Nvidia reporting this week, the entire S&P 500 feels like it’s tied to a single stock. Are we watching an AI bubble quietly deflate, or a temporary shakeout before the next run? Meanwhile, consumer discretionary is having its worst month in six months and financial stocks are hitting new highs. We break down whether this rotation into safety is healthy, or a setup for a major reversal.We close the episode with the biggest opportunities hiding in the chaos: which distressed assets might actually be long-term winners, why the bond market is having its strongest year since 2020, and what these signals mean heading into Black Friday and 2026. Plus—we share our hot takes on investing that most people don’t agree with.
