What If Iran Doesn’t Stop When We Do? Jul 17, 2026

Show notes

July 17, 2026 – Chase Taylor breaks down another rise in oil prices as shipping through the Strait of Hormuz remains severely restricted and the risk of disruption spreads toward the Red Sea. The market appears to assume the United States can de-escalate whenever it chooses—but what happens if Iran decides not to stop? Chase examines the low-probability, high-impact scenario that could send oil sharply higher, along with China’s latest AI breakthrough, weakness in the biggest technology names, a potential turnaround in New Zealand, and why modern warfare is exposing serious flaws in America’s defense strategy.

The Risk Markets Refuse to Price Jul 16, 2026

Show notes

July 16, 2026 - Markets are pricing the war as though the biggest energy risk is simply whether the Strait of Hormuz opens or closes. Chase Taylor argues that the more dangerous scenario may be lasting damage to refineries, pipelines, export terminals, and other infrastructure that cannot reopen overnight. With semiconductor and memory stocks already experiencing violent drawdowns, leverage is beginning to reveal itself in unexpected places. A sudden energy shock could expose even more of it—spilling into equities, bonds, currencies, inflation, and consumer spending. The question is not whether the worst-case scenario is inevitable. It is whether portfolios are prepared for a risk that markets appear to be treating as though it barely exists.

This Bubble Isn't Like the Others Jul 15, 2026

Show notes

July 15, 2026 — Is today's market another dot-com bubble, or is something fundamentally different this time? Zach argues that while parts of the market are clearly overheated, many of the underlying businesses are real—and that distinction matters. He explains why volatility may be the price investors pay for long-term opportunity, why relative valuations still matter, and where he believes investors should be looking despite the noise.

What If a Recession Is the Answer? Jul 14, 2026

Show notes

July 14, 2026 - A cooler inflation report gave markets another reason to celebrate—but does it actually solve the bigger problem? Zach and Chase dig into why lower inflation, rising oil prices, housing affordability, tariffs, and Federal Reserve policy may all be pulling in different directions. More importantly, they explore the uncomfortable tradeoffs policymakers face when trying to fix an economy distorted by years of easy money. The conversation ends with a provocative question: What if the solution everyone wants isn't actually the solution the economy needs?

Oil Didn't Break the Market Jul 13, 2026

Show notes

July 13, 2026 - When geopolitical tensions rise, investors instinctively expect one thing: higher oil prices and market turmoil. But markets don't always follow the obvious script. Zach and Chase break down why the latest Middle East developments haven't produced the lasting shock many expected. From the Strait of Hormuz and global energy flows to liquidity, inflation, and market psychology, they explore why markets often price fear differently than headlines suggest.

Inflation Is Changing How People Live Jul 11, 2026

Show notes

July 10, 2026 - Markets closed the week with another quiet session, but Chase Taylor argues that the more interesting story isn't what stocks did today—it's how persistent inflation continues to reshape everyday decisions. From AI spending and Meta's capital allocation to an unexpected observation about RVs, Chase explores how people adapt when higher prices become the new normal. Those behavioral shifts may create investment opportunities in places most investors aren't even looking.

AI Is Starting to Break Balance Sheets Jul 09, 2026

Show notes

July 9, 2026 – AI investment continues to accelerate, but the cost of competing may be rising faster than investors realize. Chase explains why massive AI capital spending is putting pressure on corporate balance sheets, why Oracle's credit downgrade matters, how new equity issuance could affect markets, and what investors should watch next.

We Don’t Put Oil in the Gas Tank Jul 08, 2026

Show notes

July 8, 2026 – Oil is moving again, but Chase explains why crude prices may still be the wrong thing to watch. With gasoline and diesel prices remaining elevated, crack spreads surging, and tensions in the Strait of Hormuz escalating, the bigger macro risk may be showing up in the products consumers actually use—not the oil headline investors are watching.

The Next Big Market Disagreement Jul 07, 2026

Show notes

July 7, 2026 – Chase breaks down why he believes Wall Street may be getting one of the market's biggest stories wrong. He explains why SpaceX's valuation could face much tougher challenges than investors expect, discusses rising oil prices and the geopolitical risks surrounding global energy markets, and examines China's growing push to build a fully integrated AI ecosystem.
