AI stock victim? We can help, starting with an analysis of the CoreWeave IPO disaster, a GTC that failed to kill persistent skepticism against Nvidia (NVDA), and....(drumroll) which AI stocks are safe from tariffs and recession, and which are sure to get slaughtered. Join us for an AI investing cope session, accompanied by keen macroeconomy analysis (really, it's good analysis). AI Stocks Covered: Nvidia (NVDA), CoreWeave (CRWV), Amazon (AMZN), Meta (META), and many more.
According to the market media, Nvidia has declined 105%, we're in the middle of a fierce recession, and there's no longer any need for GPUs due to Chinese dominance. In this episode we use AI and expert economists' commentary to clarify why the dominant narratives of the market pullback are, well, not quite right. If you're not sure how to think about the market crash - or if you feel like you want to sell everything and hide out until next year - this episode is for you. AI Stocks Covered: N...
Chinese dumping of AI open-source models and cheap Chinese AI inference could kill American AI, right? Even if not, we consider the best Chinese AI stocks to help you hedge against potential American mediocrity in AI.

AI Stocks Covered: AliBaba (BABA), Baidu (BIDU), Xiao-I, Nvidia (NVDA)
As cries of DeepSeek death echoed the halls of Wall Street, Nvidia sank 105% on Monday due to terrified AI investors whose worst fears finally came true (tech companies are spending 95% too much on the AI buildout, there will never be any profit in AI inference, and China has co-opted all of America's AI success). Of course none of their fears are actually true, but the one day largest stock loss in history sure seems to indicate a lot of investors believed it. In this impromptu episode we co...
Reddit is conflicted on AI. User backlash against using subreddits for AI training data sales led to a mixed bag for Reddit executives. In the end, they'll cave and do more AI stuff. For now, Reddit wants to identify as an online advertising company. And they're not doing so bad at that with superb year over year revenue growth. We discuss Reddit's burgeoning data sales business (and its percent of revenue) while looking at RDDT as a potential AI investment. We also break down market rotatio...

Yep, we recorded on Constellation Energy ($CEG) as an AI utility stock two days before it exploded 23% in a day.

Meta decided to be a metaverse company and now wants to be an AI company. But open source AI models don't lead to revenue, and Meta's main strategies to monetize AI are questionable. Nonetheless, Meta's advertising business is booming, and the ban on TikTok may lead to lesser competition in short-form video.
