In this episode of the Market Misbehavior podcast, Dave is joined by Chris Vermeulen, founder of The Technical Traders and author of Asset Revesting. Recorded 04/21/2026

Chris shares his purely technical approach to navigating the 2026 market, highlighting the recent euphoric run and subsequent correction in precious metals. We dig into his "Asset Revesting" philosophy of never holding an asset in a downtrend, why managing a portfolio is exactly like flying an airplane with a damaged wing, the importance of strict discipline over emotional reactions, and why a breakout in the US Dollar Index could trigger the next major market reset for both equities and metals.

📈 Topics Covered
• Navigating early 2026 volatility and the controlled equity sell-off around the Strait of Hormuz
• The euphoric blow-off top in gold and silver, and Chris's targets for a precious metals reset (down to $40 silver) before the next massive leg up
• How piloting an airplane with a damaged wing mirrors disciplined trading, relying on checklists, and strict risk management
• The core philosophy of "Asset Revesting": avoiding assets in downtrends and rotating seamlessly into cash, bonds, or currencies
• Why following pure price action and trend momentum is superior to trading fundamental news or earnings
• Monitoring the US Dollar Index (DXY) at the 100-101 level as a massive potential warning sign for both stocks and precious metals

In this episode of the Market Misbehavior podcast, Dave is joined by Nick Raich, founder and CEO of The Earnings Scout. Recorded 4/16/2026. 

Nick shares what he’s learned from years of analyzing corporate earnings data and guiding institutional investors. We dig into the crucial difference between a bearish "Alligator Jaw" divergence and a bullish "Rocket Ship" setup, why the smart money focuses on the delta in earnings estimates rather than simple quarterly beats, how to separate consumer sentiment noise from actual spending data, and why robust earnings growth means the Federal Reserve doesn't need to cut interest rates anytime soon.

📈 Topics Covered
• Defining the "Alligator Jaw" (a major warning sign) versus a bullish "Rocket Ship" market setup
• Why the delta (rate of change) in forward earnings estimates matters far more than simple quarterly beats
• How the recent spike in oil prices is—and isn't—impacting corporate earnings guidance
• Reconciling weak consumer sentiment surveys with the reality of strong consumer spending
• The current state of the AI trade: fears in the software space versus booming semiconductor estimates
• How private equity and delayed IPOs have structurally changed the small-cap market
• The debate over quarterly earnings reporting and the importance of management transparency
• Why the Fed cutting interest rates in the face of above-trend growth would be a massive mistake
• The power of combining fundamental earnings data with technical price momentum (1 + 1 = 3)

In this episode of the Market Misbehavior podcast, Dave is joined by Thomas Urano, Co-CIO of SAGE Advisory. Recorded 4/14/26.

Thomas shares his fixed-income expertise to help us make sense of the bond market's wild ride in early 2026. We dig into how the conflict in the Middle East has shifted the driver of bond yields from macroeconomic data to oil and inflation, what a new Fed Chair means for the future of quantitative easing and rate cuts, and why the Core CPI is actually a better gauge for monetary policy than headline numbers. We also redefine the true role of bonds as a portfolio diversifier and explore where investors should look across the yield curve—from the 0-5 year maturity range to credit risk and mortgage securities—to find stability and yield today.

📈 Topics Covered
• How the Middle East conflict shifted the bond market's focus strictly to oil and inflation
• Why the market priced out 2026 rate cuts and how to think about the 3% neutral rate (R-star)
• The critical difference between Headline and Core CPI, and why the Fed focuses on the latter
• Why the unreliability of initial economic data prints requires a broader "mosaic" approach to analysis
• The impact of incoming Fed Chair Kevin Warsh and a potential shift toward a more traditionalist monetary policy
• Redefining bonds as a diversifier: relying on low return volatility rather than strict negative correlation to equities
• Where to allocate in fixed income right now: the 0-5 year maturity range, investment-grade credit risk, and mortgage bonds

In this episode of the Market Misbehavior podcast, Dave is joined by Ross Mayfield, an Investment Strategist for Baird Private Wealth Management. Recorded 3/31/26.

Ross shares his macro perspective on navigating a highly volatile and shifting 2026 market. We dig into why corporate earnings are the ultimate line in the sand for maintaining the bull market, the shifting landscape of AI valuations, and why energy has become an essential geopolitical portfolio hedge. We also discuss the "meme-stock-ification" of silver, how to spot a market bottom using the discretionary-versus-staples ratio, and why the biggest risk to equities right now would be the Fed hiking rates into a commodity-driven energy shock.

📈 Topics Covered
• Transitioning into a high-volatility, high-dispersion market regime
• Why earnings stability and guidance dictate the difference between a correction and a bear market
• Evaluating the AI sector: Attractive forward multiples versus broken technical charts
• The self-correcting nature of crude oil demand and energy as a mandatory portfolio hedge
• Gold's "sell the news" reaction and the sudden meme-stock-ification of silver
• The necessity of evolving the traditional 60/40 portfolio with alternative assets

• The danger of the Federal Reserve hiking interest rates into an energy supply shock

In this episode of the Market Misbehavior podcast, Dave is joined by Lindsey Bell, Chief Investment Strategist at 248 Ventures.

We dig into one of the most important themes for investors in 2026: why earnings still matter more than headlines. Lindsey explains how market narratives around AI, inflation, and geopolitics can distract from the evidence that really drives long-term returns—revenue growth, margins, productivity, and consumer behavior. We also explore the rotation from AI producers to AI users, why consumer staples are quietly improving, and how logistics, transportation, and selected retail names may be telling a stronger story than many investors realize.  Recorded 3/5/26.

In this episode of the Market Misbehavior podcast, Dave is joined by legendary investor George Noble. George began his career as an intern for Peter Lynch at Fidelity and later managed the Fidelity Overseas Fund, which at one point was the number one mutual fund in the world.

We discuss the unwind of the AI euphoria, why price is not the same as value, the case for energy and precious metals, and George’s strong views on gold versus Bitcoin. Along the way, he shares timeless lessons on humility, conviction, and avoiding the trap of emotional attachment to positions.
