  • Why Palantir Insiders Are Cashing Out - And You Should Pay Attention

    Palantir’s stock has been on a...rollercoaster - soaring 250% last year, then sliding 30% in the past month. 

    And sure, plenty of investors still love it. But with a price-to-earnings ratio over 150, even the bulls should be paying attention. Because even Palantir’s own execs don’t seem convinced. 

    They’ve offloaded $3 billion worth of shares in the past year—mostly to retail investors. And not a single one has bought in. So, is this an AI goldmine or a bubble waiting to burst? 

    Today, Finimize Chief Analyst Carl Hazeley joins the studio to break down what the company does, what it should earn, its current valuation, and - of course - what that all means for you.

  • The Future of US Stocks: S&P 500 Predictions For The Next Decade

    The past decade made investing look easy – 13% returns per year from the S&P 500, no questions asked. But the next ten years are shaping up to be a whole different story, and if you’re betting on another blockbuster decade, you might be in for a nasty – and costly – surprise.

    See, even if you make some pretty optimistic assumptions, US stocks are likely to return a mere 5% per year. What’s worse, the risks are tilted to the downside. So this is a good time for a gut check.

    Today, Finimize analyst Stephane Renevier pops in to the studio, to break down how things have changed now - and what it means for your portfolio.

  • JD Sports’ Stock Is Down - Here’s Why That’s Great News

    The pandemic was a golden era for sporting goods retailers – people locked out of the gym and stuck at home drove record sales of running shoes, athleisure wear, and exercise equipment.

    But now that life’s back to normal, those stocks don’t seem so sporty. There’s a silver lining to that though: digging into industries that have fallen out of fashion can turn up some serious investment opportunities.

    Take JD Sports Fashion, for example: its share price has taken a tumble and now looks like a steal, based on key valuation metrics.

    In today’s podcast, Guy sits down with Finimize analyst Russell Burns to unpack why this $5.4 billion sporting goods giant could deliver a 42% upside for investors.

  • AI Has Turned Utilities Into A Power Play. These Three Stocks Are Set To Light Up

    US electricity demand has been, *ahem*, static over much of the past two decades, but it’s finally beginning to light up. That’s partly thanks to the explosive growth of AI.

    The innovative technology’s huge need for power now means that utility companies – traditionally one of the dullest corners of the stock market – could offer investors a pretty exciting way to play the market’s latest obsession.

    In today's episode we sit down with Finimize analyst Reda Farran, who's taken a look at the sector and found three brightly shining stocks that you may want to own now.

    Chocolate isn’t just delicious—it might also be lucrative.

    Barry Callebaut, the world’s biggest chocolate maker, has had a rough couple of years, with its stock down 45% since 2022. But could that slump be your golden opportunity?

    In today’s episode, I sit down with Theodora Lee Joseph to find out why she thinks Barry Callebaut’s fortunes are about to change. We talk restructuring plans, stabilizing cocoa prices, and why the big names - think Hershey and Mondelez - might be outsourcing more chocolate production than ever.
