Alex has been short Silicon Valley Bank (SIVB) since September 2022 and was short Signature Bank of New York (SBNY) just before it failed. 

Short SVB since September 2022, Alex Beinfield shares his investment process explaining how he created his thesis for this massive short idea long before SVB collapsed. How a professional fund manager examines a theme and makes a trade that makes him look like a psychic. We also talk about other lateral opportunities that will happen as a result of this. 

Today, your host Ryan Pallotta is joined by the author of the Rosen Report and industry expert Eric Rosen.Today’s conversation focuses on:The Silicon Valley Bank (SVP) collapse. What led to it and what it means for investors.The Fed being partially to blame for banks like SVB needing to take on more risk by keeping rates so low for so long.SVB’s failure to keep a “fortress balance sheet" and take responsibility for its decisions.Eric’s assessment of Bear Stearns prior to its 2008 collapse and subsequent sale to JP Morgan Chase.What the 2/10 UST yield curve inversion tells us about the probability of a recession.The migration of HNW people to south Florida and its effect on high-end real estate prices.The recent phenomenon of kids being less enthusiastic about learning to drive and owning a car.

Today, your host Ryan Pallotta is joined by the author of the Rosen Report and industry expert Eric Rosen.Ryan and Eric kick things off by talking about Wall Street legend Carl Icahn, with Eric recounting a memorable dinner he shared with the man Gordon Gecko was—in part—based upon.  Eric gives his thoughts on an expected interest rate hike of 25 basis points and the squeeze consumers are starting to feel with auto and credit card delinquencies on the rise and credit card and mortgage balances at an all-time high.  He then talks about a greater than zero chance of the US government being temporarily unable to pay its debt and the knock-on implications of that. Lastly, Eric shares why he thinks EV goals are unrealistic and why the government should be enticing big oil companies with a carrot rather than beating them with a stick.

Jordi then explains how Weiss is preparing to tackle 2023.Jordi then touches on his views in China, what the Fed will do in 2023, and how we have to shift our investing perspectives based on Marc Andreessen's ABCs. He even tells us how accompanying his dad to the horse track put his financial education on a fast track.  Later, the conversation turns to Jordi's passion for longevity; how mind and body health makes you a better investor; the importance of sleep; and how using data can improve your physical health as it does with your financial well-being.
