This week on Market Mondays, we break down the biggest forces moving the market right now — from rising Iran tensions and oil spikes to whether this is the biggest short-term threat to the rally. What oil price becomes dangerous for stocks? How long could markets stay down if conflict escalates? And are you positioning for protection or aggression in this environment?
We also dive deep into AI’s impact on the economy. With Jack Dorsey cutting staff due to AI, could automation trigger a job shock big enough to shake the market? Why did NVIDIA drop after earnings despite strong results? And is OpenAI shaping up to be one of the most important IPOs of the next cycle? Plus, we debate Netflix’s Warner Bros. decision and whether mega caps rallying right now makes sense.
On the strategy side, we answer real investor questions: Should you pay off debt or invest a $300K inheritance? How should traders approach oil futures in times of geopolitical stress? What stocks could benefit from Iran tensions? And what’s the one asset we’re most confident in over the next 12 months? Special guest Adem Bunkeddeko joins us for a powerful conversation at the intersection of markets, policy, and global stability.

This week on Market Mondays we break down the biggest questions investors are facing right now. We start with our Investing Fact of the Week and Trading Tip of the Week, then tackle a major strategy question: when should you sell long-term winners? If you’ve had strong returns, is it time to trim gains or let them continue to compound? We also highlight the next tech industry to pay attention to and discuss how much international exposure your portfolio should have going forward.
Has the Dow peaked, or is this just healthy rotation? We analyze the recent slide in Amazon and Palantir, break down Ray Dalio’s latest article, and explain what Google’s 100-year bond signals about long-term economic expectations.

This week on Market Mondays we’re getting tactical and long-term: your futures trading tip of the week, the biggest mistakes younger investors make chasing fast wins, and the most important investing lessons this year reinforced. We also get personal about the mindset shifts that matter—what we used to disagree with early on, then changed our mind about later, and the questions people should be asking if they actually want to build wealth over decades (not just catch a lucky trade).
Then we dive into what’s moving markets right now: Oracle as a business and investment, whether the AI narrative tied to SoftBank/OpenAI has pushed expectations too far, and what really caused Friday’s sell-off—plus whether it quietly changed market structure more than most people realize. We break down the Coinbase vs. MicroStrategy vs. IBIT debate, talk about whether we’re headed toward a real correction or just another emotional shakeout, and if the market is broadening beyond tech or setting up a head fake before leadership narrows again.
We also hit the high-volatility conversations: Super Micro’s relevance in AI infrastructure, how elite traders handle ES and NQ moving in sync, and whether leveraged ETFs like NVDL/AMDL are advanced tools—or long-term portfolio destroyers in disguise. Plus: quantum computing (obvious leaders vs. sleeper names), and a real discussion on how to balance fitness, family, investing, travel, and content creation without burning out. And we’re joined by Derrick Hayes to talk about his business journey and what it really takes to scale.
