In this episode of the Curia Investment Show, we break down a market at a critical inflection point. With elevated uncertainty and major indices testing key technical levels, we discuss why the “buy the dip” instinct is starting to re-emerge.

We explore the growing role of AI — from its impact on software and infrastructure to its influence on geopolitics and even modern warfare. The conversation also covers how massive investment in AI infrastructure is creating opportunities in unexpected areas, particularly in domestic industrials.

Finally, we touch on key macro drivers including the yield curve, bank profitability, and shifting market psychology in an environment where narratives and uncertainty are increasingly moving prices.

In this episode of the Curia Investment Show, we break down the intersection of geopolitics, energy markets, and the global economy — and what it means for investors.

With rising tensions in the Middle East, we discuss the risk of oil supply disruptions and the potential for significantly higher energy prices. More importantly, we explore the second-order effects — from supply chain pressure to stress in emerging markets — that may not yet be fully priced in.

Despite these risks, markets remain resilient. Bond yields are rising, not falling, suggesting investors are still focused on inflation, deficits, and economic strength rather than traditional “flight to safety” dynamics.

We also examine the evolving impact of AI on markets — including pressure on software and private credit, alongside continued heavy investment in AI infrastructure.

Finally, we highlight key areas of opportunity and risk, including energy, commodities, emerging markets, and AI-related industrial plays.

In uncertain markets, the key question isn’t just what happens next — but how much is already priced in.

In this episode of the Curia Investment Show, we unpack the latest developments in artificial intelligence investing following Nvidia’s blockbuster earnings report. Despite extraordinary revenue and profit growth, Nvidia’s stock has pulled back — raising an important question: is the market signaling that peak growth may already be priced in?

We also explore the broader AI investment landscape, including where the real opportunities may lie within AI infrastructure. From chips and memory to vertically integrated software platforms, we discuss how capital is rotating within the sector and why some beaten-down software companies may present compelling opportunities.

Finally, we examine the psychology behind today’s volatile market environment and what investors should focus on when narratives shift quickly. As always, we close with a look at several stocks currently on our radar and the themes shaping capital flows in the AI era.

Are dividend stocks quietly staging a comeback?

In this episode, we examine the recent rotation out of high-flying AI names and into dividend-paying equities after years of underperformance. What’s driving the shift — deflation expectations, volatility, or simple factor rotation? And does it signal something bigger beneath the surface of the market?

We also explore the competitive landscape in artificial intelligence, including the evolving role of Chinese AI and what it could mean for U.S. technology leadership. Finally, we break down the recent rise in market volatility, what the VIX is actually telling investors, and how to interpret today’s cross-currents across sectors.

As always, we close with a look at specific stocks on our radar and the themes shaping capital flows right now.

In this episode of the Curia Investment Show, we explore whether the global liquidity cycle may be entering a new phase.

Kevin Warsh signals interest in greater separation between the Federal Reserve and the Treasury — raising deeper questions about debt monetization, balance sheet reduction, and how much room policymakers really have to withdraw liquidity without destabilizing markets. We examine what that could mean for asset prices, the dollar, and financialization more broadly.

We also look abroad, where Japan appears to be leaning back into Abenomics-style coordination between fiscal and monetary policy. Is the U.S. quietly moving in a similar direction — and if so, what are the currency implications?

Finally, we discuss gold’s volatility, defensive rotation in equities, and what capital flows may be telling us about investor positioning beneath the surface.

In this episode of The Curia Investment Show, James Early is joined by Eoin Treacy of Fuller Treacy Money and Curia analyst Xiaoping Huang to break down Donald Trump’s potential pick of Kevin Warsh as the next Fed chair — and why markets are uneasy about it.

The discussion covers Fed credibility, bond market reactions, balance-sheet policy, and whether Warsh is likely to act as a principled hawk or a political operator. The panel then turns to gold, analyzing whether the recent plunge and rebound represents a buying opportunity or a volatile pause after a historic run.

Finally, the team examines the selloff in software stocks after AI erased hundreds of billions in market cap. Is AI genuinely disrupting SaaS, or is the market extrapolating too far, too fast?

The episode closes with three stock ideas spanning AI infrastructure, defensive consumer names, and resilient software — offering practical perspective in an uncertain market.

In this episode of The Curia Investment Show, James Early is joined by Owen Tracy of Fuller Tracy Money to break down a turbulent week in geopolitics, commodities, and markets.

We discuss Donald Trump backing away from threatened Greenland-linked tariffs, what that says about U.S. leverage and credibility, and why rare-earth mining in the Arctic may still move forward—just with less noise. The conversation then turns to Canada and the U.K. exploring closer ties with China, and how shifting alliances could affect currencies, capital flows, and investors.

On the market side, we cover:

• Natural gas prices surging amid an Arctic cold snap—and whether the move is temporary
• Silver’s powerful rally and where it may sit in the commodity cycle
• How investors should think about natural gas exposure: producers, pipelines, or utilities

We wrap up with a look at stocks we’re watching and the broader signals markets are sending right now. Not investment advice—just clear thinking for uncertain markets.

In this episode of the Curia Investment Show, we unpack major developments reshaping the investment landscape in 2026. James Early of Curia Financial and Owen Tracy of Fuller Tracy Money discuss the U.S. expropriation of Venezuelan oil assets and what it means for American energy companies like Chevron and Exxon. Is this a geopolitical windfall or a high-risk white elephant?

We also dive into rising tensions around Greenland as President Trump signals military interest — what does this signal for global stability, deglobalization, and investor risk? Then, we pivot to biotech and pharma: why the XBI and IBB ETFs are surging, where innovation is headed next, and how easing Fed policy is creating a tailwind for risk assets.

Later, we cover China’s rare earth export restrictions on Japan, how this impacts global supply chains, and the long-term investment outlook for rare earth miners and Japanese equities.

In this episode of The Curia Investment Show, host James Early is joined by Shaoping Huang (Curia Financial), Eoin Treacy (Fuller Treacy Money), and Enrique Abeyta (Paradigm Press) for a wide-ranging, honest discussion about one of the most unusual market years in recent history.

2025 saw:
 • U.S. stocks hit all-time highs near $70 trillion in market cap
 • Margin debt surge to record levels
 • AI move from hype to real enterprise revenue
 • Nvidia briefly reach a $5 trillion valuation
 • Gold spike above $4,500, while oil fell
 • Political volatility, tariffs, and shifting Fed expectations

In this livestream, we break down:
 • The biggest investing lessons from 2025
 • Why AI monetization (not speculation) mattered this time
 • How market concentration and the “Magnificent Seven” reshaped returns
 • What gold and silver’s surge really says about risk and liquidity
 • Why forecasts fail — and what processes actually work for investors

We also dive into a fast-paced 2026 lightning round, covering:
 • Will the Mag-7 grow or shrink as a share of the S&P 500?
 • Do Trump-era tariffs survive Supreme Court scrutiny?
 • U.S. vs UK interest rates — who cuts more?
 • Gold, silver, and bitcoin: higher or lower by the end of 2026?
 • Does the AI bubble burst — or just cool off?

Finally, each guest shares one stock or investment idea for 2026, ranging from mega-cap tech to autonomous driving and AI infrastructure.

This is not a prediction show — it’s a grounded discussion about investing when certainty is low, narratives are loud, and discipline matters more than ever.
