Rigatoni Capital Podcast

This morning I do a portfolio update and walk through the stocks I added during the recent pullback. Goldman Sachs reported a strong quarter this morning, beating on both EPS and revenue, yet the stock is selling off pre-market which is helping drag the Dow Jones lower than the other indexes. I dig into why that might be happening and promise to have more on it tomorrow. I also share my honest take on the US-Iran war and why Iran has more leverage than most people want to admit when it comes to the Strait of Hormuz.

Rigatoni Capital is a daily morning podcast for long term, buy and hold investors. This is not a show for short term traders or people looking for quick wins. Every morning I go through the most important headlines in finance, markets, and macro, and call out fake narratives in the financial media so you know what actually deserves your attention and what to ignore.

Kevin, aka Bagholder, is back on the Rigatoni Capital Podcast and came prepared. This episode we go deep on the hyperscaler CapEx cycle and what happens to Nvidia when Microsoft, Google, Meta, and Amazon eventually pull back on spending. Kevin draws a compelling parallel to what happened to Intel and Cisco when Dell cut its CapEx in 2000, and the numbers he found are worth taking seriously. We also get into Gold, Silver, and Bitcoin, including how Kevin went from gold maximalist to Bitcoin believer after a five-hour drive to Las Vegas and a genuine deep dive into the white paper.

Michael Burry posted on X that Anthropic is eating Palantir's lunch, citing Anthropic's ARR growth from $9 billion to $30 billion and data showing Anthropic now captures 73% of new enterprise AI spending. Palantir dropped 6% on the news. Then Burry deleted the post. This morning I walk through the argument, why I think the framing of Anthropic versus Palantir misses the point, and why these two companies are more complementary than competitive.

I sat down with Simeon McMillan of the Accrued Interest newsletter on Substack for a deep dive right before earnings season kicks off. Simeon is one of the best stock analysts I know in the media and advertising space. We covered what Meta's Form 4 filings are actually telling investors about where management thinks the stock is going, why Netflix's price increases are not slowing down anytime soon, and the real story behind AppLovin's e-commerce rollout and what the Meta Ceiling concept means for the stock's valuation. We also touched briefly on Amazon's advertising business and Google.

Trump posted on Truth Social this morning that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" as his 8pm ET deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz approaches. US strikes on Kharg Island have already begun. WTI is spiking. This morning I cover what this means for markets, go through Jamie Dimon's annual letter and his list of risks, talk about OpenAI versus Anthropic and why I think Anthropic is the more conservative bet, and cover Grant Cardone's latest bullish case for Bitcoin.

This morning I make the case that AI disruption is a bigger headwind for markets right now than the US-Iran war. Microsoft sits at the center of that story and I walk through why. I also look at IGV and what the broader software selloff is telling us, and make the case for why Netflix is still a great long term investment even after the recent pullback.

Trump gave his first prime-time address on Operation Epic Fury last night and said the war is nearing completion, promised to hit Iran extremely hard over the next two to three weeks, and threatened to bomb Iran back to the Stone Ages. Oil went up anyway. This morning I cover that and get into my new Substack post on the 5 headwinds investors need to think about before buying a 10% correction. I also talk about the 3 day rule when it comes to patience during market corrections, and take a look at Microsoft and why it is still not interesting to me personally right now.

Jordi Visser has been raising concerns about white collar job displacement and what the broader SaaS tech selloff means for the market. This morning I cover that thesis and where I agree and where I push back, specifically on whether the Mag7 should be avoided right now.

Warren Buffett was on CNBC's Squawk Box with Becky Quick this morning and made clear that a 10% correction is not enough to get him excited. I cover that interview and share my own 5 reasons why I am also not buying this dip yet. We also go through a handful of tickers on my radar right now.
