Welcome back to Market Mondays, the #1 destination for real investing talk and unfiltered financial insights. In this powerful episode, we tackle everything from tech shakeups to major global economic shifts — and we’re joined by legendary investor Steve Eisman, famously portrayed by Steve Carell in The Big Short. Steve delivers hard-hitting insights on current market risks, future opportunities, and what today’s smart investors should really be focused on.

We break down the big questions: Will Tesla ever hit $1,000 again? Is gold’s surge to $3,300 a long-term breakout or just fear-driven hype? What’s the real impact of Powell’s no-rate-cut stance, and is this policy purgatory draining investor portfolios? Plus, we cover why Bitcoin’s first real recession test could be coming soon, and whether ASML’s decline signals a peak for the chipmaker.

We also dig into Nvidia’s $5.5 billion hit, Trump’s lowest-ever economic approval rating, and if Google’s best days are behind us. Should you cut your AMD position or ride it out? This is a high-impact, information-packed episode you don’t want to miss — whether you’re building a portfolio or protecting one. Drop your thoughts in the comments and let us know what you want us to break down next week.

In this episode of Market Mondays, we unpack the latest moves in tech, finance, and global economics. We kick things off with Trump’s flip-flop on tech tariffs and what that could mean for investors and the broader market. Ray Dalio also raised eyebrows this week with his warning about something “greater than a recession”—we break down what he might be signaling. Then there’s NVIDIA’s massive $500 billion commitment to building American-made AI supercomputers in the U.S. for the first time. Is this a sign that semiconductors are still the smartest long-term play in a fractured global economy?

Troy delivers an in-depth stock options presentation, and we debate whether it makes sense to explore put options on luxury brand LVMH in the current market. Special guest Morgan DeBaun joins the show to talk about her journey in tech, growing her companies, navigating mergers and acquisitions, and balancing motherhood while running an empire.

We also tackle some key investment questions from the audience: What should someone making $60K a year or less be doing with their money? The price to buy NVIDIA, How should investors navigate the bond market during uncertain times? And if you have $1.2 million to invest while making $100K annually, is the “2 tech, 2 index” strategy the best move—or are there smarter options?

In this episode of Market Mondays, we break down whether Apple’s time at the top is finally over after a string of bad news—including a sharp decline alongside Nike and Black & Decker. We examine what caused the sell-off and what it means for long-term investors. The S&P 500 just posted its largest intraday swing since 2020, and all 11 sectors ended in the red—does this mean more pain is coming?

We also dive into Bitcoin’s recent drop to its lowest level since November and what that signals for crypto holders. Jim Cramer is predicting a market drop to 4,000—do we agree? Plus, we reveal the potential bottom for Nasdaq futures and evaluate if buying at the 200-week moving average is still a smart strategy.

Looking for stability during the storm? We give actionable advice on trading discipline, position sizing, stop-loss strategy, and the #1 thing retail investors should be doing right now to take advantage of this moment.

We also touch on the future of AI, whether Netflix, Meta, and Google are better bets than the “Magnificent Seven,” and what Apple’s shift to Indian production means for its margins and supply chain.

In this insightful clip, join Troy Millings, Rashad Bilal, and Ian Dunlap as they dive deep into the transformative world of technology and AI. The rapid advancements in these fields pose both exciting opportunities and significant challenges, especially for underrepresented communities.

The discussion sheds light on the urgent need for greater awareness and representation of the Black community within the tech industry. With technology often developed predominantly outside of America, mainly in countries like China and India, there's an increasing concern that Black Americans are not participating enough in shaping these crucial advancements. This lack of representation may lead to further marginalization if left unaddressed.

A particularly striking assertion is that while China uses social media platforms to bolster its image, it might also be contributing to societal dysfunction in the U.S. The trio critically examines America's current educational approach to AI, drawing stark contrasts with China's proactive strategy of teaching AI from an early age.

To counter these challenges, the hosts emphasize the importance of prioritizing technology education, entrepreneurship, and investment in minority communities. They argue that increasing representation in tech is essential to avoid becoming a "permanent underclass" and to ensure that legal frameworks provide protections against potential AI-induced discrimination.

Join us for this critical conversation and let's explore the paths needed to foster inclusivity and accountability in the tech sector. By working together, we can bridge existing gaps and secure a rightful place in the future tech landscape.

In this insightful clip from our latest conversation, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings delve into the recent legal win for XRP and what it could mean for the future of cryptocurrency. With XRP potentially making a comeback, now able to be listed on platforms like Coinbase, our analysts discuss whether this might trigger a resurgence in its popularity.

Financial analyst Ian Dunlap shares his take on XRP's market potential, expressing doubt about the cryptocurrency reaching an astronomical value of $25,000, but he remains optimistic about more realistic targets like $5 or $7. Meanwhile, Troy Millings speculates on the involvement of big tech and fintech giants like Goldman Sachs in creating ETFs for XRP, which could significantly influence the market.

The conversation also highlights how Apple's previous interest in crypto projects could enhance their market presence if they succeeded. Plus, a potential partnership between Amazon and Ripple is mentioned, creating a buzz and opening doors for broader adoption.

Adding to the discussion, Ian and Troy reflect on how market suppression has shifted the spotlight to other cryptocurrencies over the years and whether XRP can reclaim its former glory. Finally, they touch upon Tesla's strategic positioning within the "Max 7" tech companies, exploring its complex interplay between politics and market power.

Join us as we explore these exciting developments and decode what they mean for the future of cryptocurrencies and tech companies alike!
