Venezuela, Oil, & the Investments Set to Benefit Jan 07, 2026

Show notes

In this clip from Market Mondays, Rashad Bilal and Ian Dunlap dive deep into the unfolding situation in Venezuela and its global financial impact. They discuss the dramatic court hearing of Venezuela’s ousted president in New York, the ongoing disputes over oil, and how U.S. companies may stand to benefit from geopolitical shifts. Ian Dunlap identifies major players in the oil industry—Schlumberger, Chevron, ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, Halliburton, Baker Hughes—and key ETFs like XLE and ITA that are at the center of this fast-moving trade. The conversation explores how these companies and investments could be affected, but also raises the big question: how long will this oil trade remain relevant given the volatility in Venezuela? Rashad Bilal highlights the complexity of Venezuela’s oil situation, noting its thick crude oil and refining challenges, compounded by years of sanctions. The clip uncovers how U.S. interests may be less about regime change and more about friendly extortion and strategic alignment, drawing parallels to historic situations in Iraq and Libya but also pointing out important differences. This is not just a discussion about profit and trades—it’s a candid look at the moral dilemmas facing investors. Is it right to invest in sectors benefitting from international turmoil? Rashad Bilal reflects on how many Venezuelans accept U.S. involvement for a chance at a better future, underlining that the story isn’t black or white. The conversation wraps with speculation about wider ambitions for U.S. influence, naming Colombia, Cuba, Mexico, and even Greenland as potential targets for strategic moves. This is a must-watch for anyone interested in the intersection of geopolitics, finance, and morality. *Hashtags:* #Venezuela #OilTrade #Geopolitics #MarketMondays #RashadBilal #IanDunlap #Investing #Finance #USPolitics #Imperialism #StockMarket #OilStocks #GlobalMarkets

Is Netflix the New Cable? Mega Deals, Paramount Drama & Why You Should Hold Long-Term Dec 28, 2025

Show notes

In this insightful Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings break down Netflix’s strategy and the latest shake-ups in the streaming and media industries. The hosts debate whether Netflix can reclaim $100+ per share and if it’s still a top buy for long-term investors—even as seismic changes hit Paramount and major players like Larry Ellison double down on media investments. The conversation kicks off with Rashad Bilal sharing why Netflix’s push into live events, like big fight nights and sports, is building a new moat around its business—transforming them into this generation’s version of cable. Ian Dunlap reinforces the bullish outlook, reminding investors that while big year-over-year gains might slow, Netflix is still one of the best-run companies in media. The hosts urge viewers to get comfortable with longer holding periods, noting that industry giants are playing 20- to 30-year games while everyday investors sometimes focus way too much on 3- to 6-month swings. Troy Millings explores Netflix’s shift towards integrating into our daily routines—not just through binge-worthy series, but partnerships like the iHeartRadio deal, live sports, and an expanding podcast presence. He highlights the Diddy documentary’s viral numbers and what that means for Netflix’s future pipeline. The clip also dives into headline-grabbing moves by Larry Ellison, including the rumored $40 billion personal guarantee attached to mega-mergers with Paramount and Warner Brothers, plus the deepening relationship between Oracle and TikTok. Ian Dunlap explains the power and intent behind these deals—not just for building influence, but controlling media narratives and ensuring stability across their empire. Amid all the deal-making and power plays, this Market Mondays highlight ends on a crucial message: stay committed to your portfolio, play the long game, and don’t get spooked by short-term volatility. As the media industry consolidates and the fight for viewer engagement escalates, the best assets—including Netflix—are set for years of growth. *Topics covered:*

Will Netflix surpass $100 again?
How Netflix is building a modern cable moat
Live sports, exclusive docs, and content strategy
The game-changing Paramount, Warner Bros, and Oracle moves
Larry Ellison’s $40B guarantee and its media power play
