    Understanding tech vs. growth could make you massive gains in this market Mar 23, 2022

    The Federal Reserve is driving me crazy… A week after raising interest rates for the first time since 2018 by a measly 0.25%. Fed Chair Jerome Powell is trying to sound tough on inflation. But Daniel offers a different perspective… [0:35] The Fed needs to get its act together right away. I explain what it must do to keep inflation from getting completely out of hand.

    A beaten-down sector ready to soar as interest rates rise Mar 22, 2022

    I kick off today with March Madness… and some of the best matchups for the rest of the tournament. Speaking of basketball… I just got back from my daughter’s first traveling tournament.

    We’ll see 10% inflation unless the Fed does this Mar 16, 2022

    The Federal Reserve wraps up its March meeting today and Chair Jerome Powell is expected to announce the first interest rate hike since 2018. Daniel gives his take on how the Fed should move forward from here… and why the volatility in oil gives the Fed some wiggle room. [0:30] The Fed is so far behind the curve on fighting inflation, it’s a joke at this point… And if it doesn’t take a certain set of actions… we’ll end up seeing 10% inflation this year—or higher.

    We need to produce more uranium—for the sake of our national security Mar 10, 2022

    Amir Adnani, founder, president, and CEO of Uranium Energy Corp. (UEC), is back on the podcast to discuss the bull market in commodities. Uranium prices are surging as the Russian-Ukraine war continues. Amir gives his take on the changing landscape for energy markets… why uranium is critical to our national security… and how UEC is positioned to benefit from higher uranium prices.

    Should you be allowed to invest in Russia? Mar 09, 2022

    I, Daniel, am leading the show today… and this episode is all about Russia. [0:30] JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs are catching the attention of politicians such as Elizabeth Warren over trading Russian bonds… I break down why—despite the bad perception for Wall Street—these banks aren’t breaking any sanctions. [2:35] But what about Main Street? Should individual investors have the option to invest in Russia? [7:25] Several of the world’s largest and most successful brands are cutting ties to Russia—including Coca-Cola, PayPal, PepsiCo, and McDonald’s, to name a few. I highlight one step McDonald’s is taking… that could create shareholder momentum.

    The bull market in commodities is just getting started Mar 08, 2022

[0:30] Meanwhile, politics are helping send oil prices rocketing higher. Prepare for a rant...

    Listener favorite Harris “Kuppy” Kupperman, chief investment officer at Praetorian Capital and author of Kuppy’s Event Driven Monitor (KEDM), is back on the show today.

    What Biden could learn from Mike Tyson Mar 02, 2022

    President Biden delivered his first State of the Union address last night. Daniel shares what he thought Biden did well… while I focus on what upset me about the speech—and what politicians could learn from Mike Tyson. [0:45] Of course, much of the address centered on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Daniel and I discuss the economic sanctions against Russia… whether they’re working as planned… and how the war will impact energy prices. [9:53] Fed Chair Jerome Powell announced plans to raise interest rates by 0.25% later this month... saying he “hopes” inflation goes down. While I’m riled up about the flip-flopping Fed, Daniel says I shouldn’t be surprised. [14:25] Warren Buffett released his annual letter to Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) shareholders over the weekend. Daniel explains why every investor should read these letters… and a couple of items that stood out to him from this year’s. And we discuss why Berkshire will benefit from inflation. [20:10] Next, we focus on Buffett's comments regarding share buybacks. I break down why you should pay attention to Buffett’s share repurchases… And Daniel highlights one company aggressively buying back its stock. [26:16] During its recent earnings report, semiconductor company Ambarella (AMBA) said the supply chain crisis is far from over. This will have a huge impact across sectors—and automakers in particular. [31:48] Speaking of autos, Ford (F) continues to spew bulls*** about its electric vehicles (EVs). I go on a small rant about the company’s tactics to distract from its problems… and why I’d consider shorting Ford right now. [33:13] Enjoyed this episode?

    Russia's actions are bullish for this sector… Mar 01, 2022

    I’ve spent a ton of time on the road lately for… gymnastics. My daughter’s competitions have given me a front-row seat on some impressive athletes… and some made-for-TV drama. [0:30] I share a few observations from my travels—including a bullish sign for Disney (DIS)... and how interest rate hike fears appear to be impacting the Florida housing market. [3:40] A big unknown right now is whether we’ll see any economic fallout from the Russia sanctions. I explain the war’s effects on two critical market factors: oil and inflation. [8:00] Another unknown is how aggressive the Fed will be in 2022… Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Wall Street thinks the Fed will only hike interest rates by 25 basis points (0.25%) this month—instead of the 0.50% increase it was previously expecting. I disagree… and explain why you should be ready for a 50-point rate hike. [12:05] I highlight some names that are doing great and a few that are struggling… my strategy for buying stocks in this volatile market… one “no-brainer” sector right now… and another I expect to keep surging due to Russian aggression. [20:10] Pivoting to digital assets… crypto is rallying hard this week. I break down why this asset class continues to attract money from around the globe. [28:10] The current market shows why hedging your portfolio is more important than ever. I share some of my preferred hedging strategies… and things to look for if you’re putting money into the market right now. [32:40] Enjoyed this episode?

    One biotech’s 80% single-day plunge: A case study for investors Feb 24, 2022

    Biotech Kodiak Sciences (KOD) plunged 80% in one day after a major drug trial setback. In today’s episode, we focus on why this company captivated Wall Street… and what investors can learn from the selloff. [1:45] I’ve been following Kodiak for a while… We once bought and sold it for a gain in . Even recently, the Baker Brothers—some of the best biotech investors—were buying heavily. [3:40] But this week… the Phase 3 study for its most exciting drug missed expectations. [7:50] The situation is a strong example of why investors must pay attention to expectations—both high and low… and be willing to adjust as facts change. [11:00] When expectations are leaning either bullish or bearish, consider the contrarian trade… It’s how you make the biggest gains as an investor. [26:00] Enjoyed this episode?

    The commodity trade is far from over Feb 23, 2022

    Daniel’s back in the office and I rib him about taking a sick day… the day before his birthday! [0:30] Markets continue to be volatile around the Russia-Ukraine conflict. We discuss Russia’s latest “peacekeeping missions”... and why Biden’s sanctions will actually help the Kremlin. [2:45] I point out the huge difference in public perception between Russia and China… and why the U.S. (wrongly) takes a different approach in its dealings with these two countries. [7:50] Hopefully the Russia-Ukraine situation is a short-term problem for markets… and once it resolves, it could be the perfect time to buy oil stocks and other commodity-related plays. [11:45] Speaking of commodities, coal is surging—and the price will remain elevated for the foreseeable future. While “coal” is a swear-word in most investing circles… investors in this commodity stand to make a ton of money. [14:00] Another swear-word in the investing world: Uranium. We share why we’re shocked prices aren’t much higher. [19:55] Turning to inflation… markets continue to anticipate multiple interest rate hikes this year. JPMorgan thinks we’ll see nine in a row. Daniel and I debate whether the Fed will be aggressive enough… and Daniel explains why rising oil prices will give the Fed some wiggle room. [24:15] Virgin Galactic, a popular SPAC, is making headlines following its earnings report.

    A major indicator suggests stocks are about to roar higher Feb 22, 2022

    I just came back from Baltimore, where I recorded a new special report I'm excited to share with you… how to make an absolute fortune from future government policies. [0:17] The Russia-Ukraine crisis is creating tons of market volatility and uncertainty—but this will be a short-term problem for investors. [4:00] I call out Europe for talking a big game against Russia… without any serious consequences. I also call out Germany and Great Britain for their weak actions in the conflict. [5:57] Why Russia has the most leverage of any country in the world right now… why it may not invade Ukraine after all… and why Ukraine isn’t as innocent of a country as it seems… [10:15] While Russia/Ukraine tensions have taken center stage… the bigger risk investors should be worrying about is the Fed and how it plans to control runaway inflation. Some believe this risk is already priced in based on a leading indicator… [14:10] I highlight companies/sectors you should continue to avoid… while explaining how to structure your portfolio to take advantage of the volatility.

Since taking over the product two years ago, Genia has closed, on average, one triple-digit winner every 10 weeks!

    This ‘obvious’ trade could generate 100% gains in 12 months Feb 16, 2022

    Sectors from autos to apparel to semiconductors are warning of the impact inflation could have if it’s not brought under control… and the Fed needs to move aggressively to fight it. Daniel and I discuss whether the market is pricing in inflation… and why we’re skeptical of the Fed doing the right thing. [0:45] Speaking of higher interest rates, I share my experience getting a construction loan for my new house… and the impact higher rates could have on the housing market. [8:40] Growth stocks continue to be extremely volatile as higher rates loom… And one of Daniel’s favorites has been unfairly hit over the past few months. Daniel explains why investors should be watching this remarkable growth story. [16:45] Crocs (CROX) announced it would be suspending share buybacks to focus on lowering its debt. I explain why I think this is a smart move… and whether Crocs is a buy at current levels. [22:10] Plus, we discuss the impact of easing mask requirements… and the best opportunity for 100% gains over the next year as we continue to adjust to the new normal. [25:40] Enjoyed this episode?

    The real story behind the Russia-Ukraine conflict Feb 15, 2022

    What a weekend… I give my thoughts on the big game, which included a few frustrating play calls. [0:30] Speaking of frustrating… I need to rant about the impending conflict between Russia and Ukraine. I’ve done a ton of homework on the tensions between these two countries. A lot of folks won’t like what I have to say. Brace yourself for the truth about who’s right in this conflict… and why the U.S. has no business being involved. [4:55] I break down why Ukraine is one of the most corrupt countries in the world… What history tells us about the issues between the two nations… And the ridiculous politics involved. [7:40] Plus, I highlight which country is the real threat to the U.S. even though most folks are afraid to admit it. [12:00] I explain why Ukraine (potentially) joining NATO is such a huge deal… and why it will probably never happen. [15:50] Finally, how worried should investors be about the Ukraine situation? It’s triggering a lot of volatility in the market… but you can use it to your advantage. [19:45] And speaking of the choppy market, we’re running a special promotion for —which focuses on profiting from volatility. I break down Genia Turanova’s strategy… and highlight a recent trade that generated a 165% gain in less than a month. [23:35] Enjoyed this episode?

    Andrew Horowitz, founder of Horowitz & Company, host of The Disciplined Investor podcast, and fan-favorite guest, starts the show with a New Year’s resolution that’s going well… [0:30] Usually, Andrew’s a laid-back guy… but the Fed has him fired up. He shares the only solution to higher inflation—if the Fed doesn’t screw it up. [3:05] Next, we discuss the huge moves in Meta (FB) and Amazon (AMZN)... and what they say about the current market environment. [11:00] Another thing that’s got Andrew fired up: SPACs.

[16:10] As always, Andrew shares some of his favorite stock ideas—including one company poised to benefit from the massive metaverse trend. [20:40] To wrap the interview, Andrew shares what’s catching his attention outside the U.S… why diversification is critical, especially in today’s markets… and what to watch out for if the U.S. dollar starts rising. [26:25] Super Bowl weekend is almost here, which means it’s time for my yearly tradition: breaking down the matchup to pick a winner. I’ve been doing this for years, and my system has an 80% win rate. I share some interesting stats on this year’s teams—the Los Angeles Rams and the Cincinnati Bengals… and which one I believe will be this year’s champion. [30:40] Finally, as you probably know, our security is now trading on the (Alternative Trading Platform) under the ticker CURZ. [47:55] Enjoyed this episode?

    The death of COVID will lead to an explosion in these stocks Feb 09, 2022

    We have a few fun topics to kick off the show: Daniel highlights the PGA tour in Scottsdale, Arizona this week… And I’m boasting a new look after a haircut didn’t go as planned. [0:30] As COVID cases trend lower, states like California and New York have begun to lift mask mandates and related restrictions. I highlight one group of stocks set to soar as everyone cheers the end of COVID. [2:40] After reporting weak earnings last week, Meta (FB) gave back a year’s worth of gains… in two trading sessions. Daniel, who’s been bullish on this name through COVID, shares his takeaway, both from a fundamental and an emotional perspective… And I highlight what I’d need to see to add to my own position. [11:48] Cannabis grower Canopy Growth (CGC) caught my attention with its earnings. I share why I’m intrigued by this space… and why I’d look to trade cannabis stocks vs. holding them long-term. [20:05] Finally, I answer some of your questions on our security, which officially began trading on the (Alternative Trading System) under the ticker CURZ. [28:45] Enjoyed this episode?

    Why the move to ‘go green’ is complete bulls*** Feb 08, 2022

    Over the weekend, I attended my daughter’s gymnastic competition... and found out (once again) why the saying “happy wife, happy life” is accurate. [0:30] It’s a huge week here at Curzio Research. Yesterday, our security began trading on the tZERO ATS (Advanced Trading System). I share why investors should dig into the security token space… and how it’s disrupting Wall Street’s old ways of raising capital. [4:30] The opportunity in security tokens reminds me of several other revolutionary trends—from fracking to the Internet of Things (IoT)... And it benefits both issuers and investors. [7:35] Moving on, the Fed’s coming rate hikes aren’t priced into the markets. I highlight why the Fed won’t be able to control inflation… [17:35] But as inflation moves higher, one left-for-dead sector is booming: traditional energy. I break down why the push to green energy is backfiring… and how to gain exposure to this space. [20:50] The volatility we’re seeing right now is no joke… Some of the biggest stocks, from Meta (FB) to Amazon (AMZN), are moving 20% in a day—and moves like these are likely our “new normal.” [25:50] So, as we all adjust, I want to thank you, my listeners. We try very hard to help individual investors here at Curzio Research, and I genuinely appreciate all your support and feedback. [31:30]

    Frank Holmes, CEO and chief investment officer of U.S. Global Investors, is back on Wall Street Unplugged. We kick things off by discussing the pullback in the markets… Frank explains why he believes the selloff is nearing a bottom… and why he doesn’t expect interest rates to rise significantly this year. [2:00] Frank recently launched his own exchange-traded fund: the U.S. Global Sea to Sky Cargo ETF (SEA)—which gives investors access to some of the best shipping companies in the world.

[21:20] He also explains the different types of chips used for mining particular cryptos… [29:30] Next, Frank breaks down the difference between “proof of work” (PoW) and “proof of stake” (PoS)... and why fears over Ethereum’s switch from the former to the latter are overblown.

    After 12 years… numbers finally matter Feb 02, 2022

    Earnings season is underway… and after more than a decade, the results actually seem to matter to investors. Shares of Netflix (NFLX) are moving higher on strong earnings and huge insider buying. Daniel and I give our take on co-CEO Reed Hastings’ “perfect timing” in scooping up shares… and whether Netflix will be able to maintain its dominant position as competition in the streaming space heats up. [0:45] UPS (UPS) is also moving to the upside after reporting blowout numbers, despite seeing higher costs in the quarter. I explain why, despite the rise in its stock price, the company is still trading at a reasonable valuation. [10:00] Daniel takes a small victory lap as his recommendation, ExxonMobil (XOM), trades near 52-week highs following earnings. (It’s up about 30% in the portfolio.) He breaks down how the push to “green energy” will actually drive oil higher… and ExxonMobil will continue to benefit. [14:00] Joe Rogan is sparking a heated debate over COVID “information” on Spotify, with artists pulling their music from the platform. I give my take on the drama… and whether Spotify (SPOT) is a buy at current levels given the negative press.

I highlight why I love this move by Meta… and Daniel shares why it’s great for Silvergate. [31:50]


    Hundreds of thousands of assets are about to be tokenized Feb 01, 2022

    Big news: Our Curzio Equity Owners Token (CEO) token begins trading on the tZERO platform next week. I recap our incredible journey with CEO—from being just a wild idea a few years ago… to trading on a U.S.-based exchange. [0:30] But it’s not just our token… Security tokens in general are finally gaining traction across the U.S. In fact, I've been talking with a lot of business owners showing huge interest in following our lead by creating their own. [3:00] I explain why I chose this avenue to grow my business… And why security token offerings (STOs) are a much better alternative to initial public offerings (IPOs), special-purpose acquisition companies (SPACs), or direct listings... [7:25] Finally, I walk through the process of creating a security token… and why I think there will be hundreds of thousands of new ones launched over the next five years. [21:50]

    John Petrides, portfolio manager at Tocqueville Asset Management is back on the podcast to discuss current market volatility… and opportunity. To start, John gives his macro view of current market conditions… breaking down the volatility in growth stocks… interest rates… geopolitical risks… and more. [1:35] He explains why having an investing plan, along with managing expectations, is critical—especially in times like these… and why the current volatility has nothing to do with the market’s fundamentals. [7:54] With interest rates expected to move higher, investors should focus on companies with strong balance sheets… John shares one “boring” investment to protect your portfolio, no matter what the Fed does. [9:05] Thematic investing, which focuses on specific long-term trends, gained a lot of momentum last year—especially in tech and other growth areas.

[10:15] He also explains why he doesn’t think we’re headed for a recession... [17:00] Finally, as interest rates move higher, John points out why investors shouldn’t just focus on the higher number.

    COVID lies are finally exposed… And that’s bullish for stocks Jan 26, 2022

    Daniel and I kick things off by discussing the recent market volatility. While the quickness of the pullback is surprising… investors should expect the large market swings to continue. [1:45] But market pullbacks create opportunities… and I’m seeing way more value in small caps than in large caps. [4:50] Fed Chair Jerome Powell is holding a press conference later today following the January Fed meeting. Here’s what I think he’ll say about rate hikes and inflation. [8:00] This week, Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson (R) held a hearing called . Daniel and I share what stood out to us about the hearing… how it broke the mainstream narrative… and why the takeaway is bullish for the markets. [11:05] As economies move past Omicron, Daniel names a few sectors he’s researching… and a stock that will benefit as interest rates and inflation continue higher. [19:35] Microsoft (MSFT) just reported its latest earnings. I highlight the results… and why we’re entering a stock picker’s market. [27:45] Volatility isn’t just in stocks but cryptocurrencies, as well—the price of Bitcoin has fallen about 40% from its all-time high just a couple months ago. But former Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein is still bullish on crypto… Daniel and I break down his recent comments. [30:50] Enjoyed this episode?

    The best opportunity to buy small caps in a decade Jan 25, 2022

    Market volatility is rampant. I break down the wild action so far this week… and why this market is unlike anything we’ve ever seen. [0:30] While I didn't expect this strong of a pullback this quickly, I’ve been warning about risks to the downside. I explain what inflation rates tell us about the possibility of a recession—and why that possibility isn’t as scary as it seems. [6:05] While it may be hard to see through the volatility, this is one of the best times to buy small caps in 10 years… and I expect one small-cap sector to see a major comeback in 2022. (It’s the sector I highlight in this month’s issue of , being released tomorrow.) [12:20] I compare two growth stocks—Roblox (RBLX) and Rivian (RIVN)—that are selling off hard… and tell you which one I’d buy at current levels. [22:30] Turning to questions… Is now a good time to buy gold and silver stocks? In short, yes. I share why the environment for precious metals is fantastic… and how I would invest in the sector. [31:40] Could the Fed surprise the market and announce an interest rate hike during its meeting this week? I highlight what I expect from the Fed… [34:50] Enjoyed this episode?

    I (Daniel) am behind the mic this week as Frank conducts some boots-on-the-ground research into some of his latest ideas. Microsoft (MSFT) is buying gaming giant Activision Blizzard (ATVI) for around $70 billion. I highlight some details around the merger… Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella’s incredible deal-making track record… and how this deal sets up Microsoft to become a massive player in the metaverse trend.

    ‘The Mooch’ unplugged Jan 13, 2022

    The one and only Anthony “The Mooch” Scaramucci—renowned investment banker and former White House Director of Communications—joins me to discuss the volatility and opportunity in Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Listen as Anthony gives a macro view on Bitcoin… why El Salvador’s recent adoption of the crypto as a national currency is a huge breakthrough… and how the current crypto market reminds him of the early days of Amazon. [1:40] He explains why cryptos are great for society… and how investors should think about allocating money to the space. [8:00] In addition to Bitcoin and Ethereum, Anthony shares another crypto catching his attention (which also happens to be a holding)... and why he’s bullish on the massive opportunity in the metaverse. [15:35] Anthony also explains why he believes Bitcoin will hit $500,000 by 2025. [23:00] You probably know of Anthony not just for his prestige as an investor… but also because for the 11 days he served under former President Trump (before ultimately advising a Republican super-PAC to oppose Trump’s reelection). Anthony gives his take on political bipartisanship… and the structural changes he’d like to see implemented throughout the government. [29:50] And, as a native New Yorker, Anthony shares why he’s excited about the city’s newly elected mayor, Eric Adams. [38:30] Enjoyed this episode?

    This CEO is the most powerful person in crypto Jan 12, 2022

    I’m back from the 2022 Consumer Electronics Show (CES)... and you might not believe some of the wild tech I saw showcased—from microchips for sexual health… to flying cars… to a thumb-sucking stuffed animal (as in… it sucks YOUR thumb). To see some of this tech yourself, check out my updates from the show on , , and our . [0:30] Inflation is at its highest level in 40 years… but the markets seem to be taking it in stride. Daniel and I discuss the market narrative around inflation—including JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon’s recent comments on the strength of the economy and consumer debt levels. [9:00] I share a great lesson on how to think about debt—based on a popular company that’s unfairly criticized for its debt. [11:40] Daniel shares why he’s looking to “boring” companies for the current market environment… Speaking of which, today’s recommendation is one of my favorite “boring” companies… but its growth story is more exciting than you might think. [15:53] With Bitcoin bouncing higher after dipping below $40,000, I’m more bullish than ever for crypto. That said, you’ve got to mitigate risk and manage the inherent volatility of the crypto markets. In , for example, we use smaller position sizes to build exposure over time. Daniel and I discuss one of our favorite portfolio holdings… and why I believe the company’s CEO is the most powerful person in crypto. [24:25] I close by pounding the table on why you must educate yourself on the crypto industry… and why is the best way to do it. [31:00]


    The best and worst of CES 2022 Jan 11, 2022

    What a great and busy start to the year… I just returned from the 2022 Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2022)... and today, I’ll highlight the best and worst companies that showcased at the event. [0:30] But first, Goldman Sachs just increased its prediction for the number of interest rate hikes we’ll see this year as the Federal Reserve attempts to control inflation… I pound the table on why inflation is the biggest risk to the markets today… the single, painful solution I see for the Fed… and how to start protecting your portfolio NOW. [1:30] Cryptos are also seeing a lot of volatility, with Bitcoin dropping from $60,000 to around $40,000 over the past month or so. I explain why the pullback is creating a great buying opportunity. [7:50] Turning to CES, while Omicron had an obvious impact on the number of attendees (several companies ended up canceling last-minute)... there were still plenty of amazing products being showcased—like BMW’s new electric vehicle (EV), which I got to test-drive. [9:20] One of the biggest themes of the event was the “metaverse.” While the whole concept is still somewhat ambiguous… the biggest companies—including Apple, Google, Facebook, and Microsoft—are already making big moves into the trend. [20:00] But two companies really stole the show… and I believe one device in particular will become my personal favorite product of the year. [25:50] Finally, a new cross-industry alliance is a huge deal for the smart home trend. [29:20] Check out our , , and the for all of my deep-dive updates from this year’s event. Enjoyed this episode?

    This ‘adults-only’ trend is creating a stir at CES 2022 Jan 06, 2022

    As many of you know, Frank is in Las Vegas this week attending the 2022 Consumer Electronic Show (CES 2022). In the meantime, I (Daniel) am taking over the mic. A recent report highlighted why Americans are “unhappy” with the handling of the COVID pandemic. But it does indicate a positive shift for the economy—and the markets. [2:17] I’ve been critical of Jim Cramer in the past… but credit where it’s due. Cramer recently made a strong argument about the risks we face from China. I explain why I’d steer clear of China as a long-term investment… but it might make a good trade in the short term. [10:15] With inflation set to ramp up this year, I highlight several “boring” stocks that are set to benefit from an inflationary environment. [17:35] Finally, I share a few updates from Frank on the most dominant tech trends showcasing at CES 2022… including one that’s “adults only.” [21:46] For CES updates, including interviews with tech leaders and potential stock ideas, you can follow Frank on , , and on Curzio's .

    The company that stole the show at CES media day Jan 05, 2022

    While Frank is in Las Vegas at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), I (Daniel Creech), will be your podcast host the next couple of days. I start with a quick recap of this year’s crazy holiday travel environment… and what I saw on my trip home to Ohio. Turning to the markets, I break down the 2021 results and highlight some of the best-performing sectors. And I share my thoughts on which areas will lead the way as inflation continues this year. Healthcare stocks did great in 2021. But the current legislation in D.C. could push a lot more money into the sector… Next, I recap the Fed’s plan to raise interest rates in the coming months. I tell you how to prepare for a massive shift that’s about to happen… and a potential surge in volatility. The coronavirus continues to make headlines, with the Omicron variant causing a spike in new cases. I break down the shifting media narrative around COVID over the past year… and the changes in quarantine policy from the CDC. It’s a frustrating situation for investors, but there are reasons for optimism. Before forming an opinion about the coronavirus, I highlight two interviews you should listen to… Finally, I share some updates from Frank’s first day at CES, including why he’s ticked off at some major companies… the one megatrend everyone is talking about… and one tech player that stole the show.


    The companies to watch at CES 2022 Jan 04, 2022

    Happy New Year! I just touched down in Vegas for the annual . This conference is one reason I love the month of January for finding ideas.

    An iconic brand lost its way… Here’s how it can get back on track Dec 23, 2021

    As inflation keeps surging, I break down why I’m bullish on oil for 2022… and several ways you can gain exposure to the space. [0:40] Turning to crypto, I highlight why Bitcoin will continue to go much higher—and why its limited supply is good for investors. [7:08] It’s the end of an era for Disney (DIS) as executive chairman and former CEO Bob Iger is stepping down. I explain why the company is in a difficult spot… and what it should do to get back on track.

    My favorite—and least favorite—large-cap stocks for 2022 Dec 22, 2021

    I went to the movie theater last night to see Spider-Man: No Way Home… and it was absolutely packed. I highlight what that says about Omicron (and a few new trailers that have me excited). [0:30] But today’s show is all about answering your most asked questions… Why did I choose to list the Curzio Equity Owners (CEO) token on tZERO instead of another platform like Coinbase? What’s the difference between exchanges that trade utility tokens vs. security tokens? And tZERO’s huge advantage when it comes to the latter... [3:05] What’s the best trade of my career?

    5 trends EVERY investor must have exposure to in 2022 Dec 21, 2021

    The market is more volatile than ever, with the average U.S. stock down 25% from its highs. This is mostly due to the uncertainty behind the Fed’s future interest rate hikes and Omicron. [0:25] I explain why this volatility will be the norm in 2022… and how investors can make a fortune by following one simple investment strategy. [2:28] Turning to your questions… I highlight why gold will finally start to outperform the stock market… despite the Fed aggressively raising rates next year.

    tZERO is the leader in digital securities trading… It’s also where our Curzio Equity Owners (CEO) token … And today, Solomon Tesfaye, the head of business development and capital markets at tZERO, joins the show to share where the industry is headed as adoption accelerates. [0:30] We discuss the evolution (and steep learning curve) of capital-raising in the sector—from initial coin offerings (ICOs) to security token offerings (STOs)... and why the latter will continue to see massive growth. [1:35] In September, crypto wallet provider Exodus began trading on the tZERO platform… successfully raising capital through a Reg A offering. Solomon explains why this is a huge deal for the industry—and individual investors. [4:45] Next, he breaks down tZERO’s extensive security token pipeline—from real estate to mining to tech to healthcare… how the firm is partnering with institutional investors… and its work with regulators—with a goal to bring stocks and digital assets onto a single platform. [7:25] We wrap our interview with Solomon’s predictions for the industry over the next three years.

    Are you ready for 11 straight interest rate hikes? Dec 15, 2021

    Christmas season is here… and I love this time of year—not just for the holidays, but because I get to attend the annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES) held in Las Vegas every January. Be sure to by January 5 to get my most important updates on CES 2022… including the latest tech set to take the world by storm. [0:35] After finally admitting inflation isn’t transitory during last month’s policy meeting, the Federal Reserve has some difficult decisions to make as it gathers for its final meeting of the year… One investment bank is predicting nearly a dozen rate hikes over the next three years. While Daniel and I have different takes, we do agree: The Fed must act aggressively… Here’s what that means for 2022 market conditions. [4:25] Last week, executives from six large crypto firms appeared on Capitol Hill for a hearing on the future of crypto regulation.

    2022 forecasts call for huge volatility… Here’s how to play it Dec 14, 2021

    As we near the end of 2021, investment banks are making predictions for 2022… and they’re calling for volatility. Paying attention to these predictions can give you a massive edge in the markets. [0:30] Now, we all know consensus predictions aren’t always accurate—take the early forecasts on COVID, for instance. You’ve got to be willing to question the “status quo”... and invest accordingly. [2:00] I list several companies poised to continue growing regardless of volatility in 2022. [5:00] Speaking of predictions, I share my expectations for interest rate hikes next year… and why investors should prepare for some large pullbacks in the market.

    This 10x crypto winner is still a screaming buy Dec 08, 2021

    We’ve been seeing some wild volatility in the markets over the last week… and the Fed’s change of tune on inflation is at least partially responsible. Daniel and I share why inflation is the worst enemy of the markets… why the Fed must raise rates to fight it… and whether we think they’ll actually do it. [0:30] It’s not just stocks experiencing volatility—bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies also dropped a quick 20% in just a few days. I explain why you shouldn’t worry about what crypto critics have to say… why you need to look further down the road when it comes to digital assets... and why you should scale into crypto positions. [8:28] Silvergate Capital (SI)—a bank focused on the crypto industry—raised additional capital this week. This stock is up over 1,200% for members… but it’s still an incredible buy at current levels. [16:10] Former President Trump’s new special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) is stirring the pot on social media. Daniel and I break down the drama… and whether there’s a legitimate investment thesis behind the headlines. [21:05] Finally, the U.S. announced a diplomatic boycott of the Winter Olympics in China.

    The “Goldilocks” economy is officially over Dec 07, 2021

    I have a serious message in today’s podcast: Prepare for a tough 2022 in the stock market. In just the past week, we’ve seen wild swings in the markets over Omicron concerns, surging inflation, and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell changing his tune on whether inflation is transitory. [0:40] The bottom line is that the “Goldilocks” conditions for a bull market—record low interest rates and trillions in government stimulus—are over. We’re in unprecedented times… and the only choice the Fed has to fight inflation is going to result in a bumpy ride for stocks. [5:40] We’re already seeing volatility around the expectation of rising interest rates. I highlight many stocks well off their highs.... and why you should expect more volatility going forward. [8:00] Next, I explain why the Fed’s money printing tactics were successful during the 2008-2009 financial crisis... and why that playbook won’t work this time. [12:10] It’s not all doom and gloom, though. I share some sectors and stocks that will continue to do well as we learn to live with the coronavirus and its variants. [15:35] My advice is to be careful and look to protect yourself. And one of the best ways to do that is with our newsletter, edited by Genia Turanova. Her recommended hedges can save a portfolio during a downturn. [18:18] In addition to hedging, you want to own quality stocks… especially those in massive growth trends. members will learn all about an exciting new trend—and my favorite way to play it—in tomorrow's issue. [23:00] Turning to questions… After a terrible quarter, a listener wants to know if I think DocuSign (DOCU) is a buy... along with my take on gold stocks. [25:05] Speaking of gold... Do investors have to choose between gold or cryptocurrencies? [29:00] Enjoyed this episode?

    Chris Mayer, author of and fan-favorite guest, is back. Last time Chris was on the podcast, he recommended Texas Pacific Land (TPL)... which is now up over 150% for members.

    The era of ‘easy’ money is about to come to an end Dec 01, 2021

    Fed Chair Jerome Powell finally admitted inflation isn’t transitory… and his change of tune shook the markets. Daniel and I give our take on Powell’s comments and the market selloff that followed. The Fed’s new stance marks the beginning of the end for the easy money policies we’ve seen since the start of the pandemic. We highlight several sectors and companies that will thrive… as well as ones that will suffer… as the Fed implements new policies to fend off inflation. Rising inflation—not to mention the new COVID variant, Omicron—will mean more volatility in the coming weeks and months. Daniel shares a handful of “boring” stocks that investors should consider as we prepare for a shaky market. We still don’t have a lot of data around Omicron... Yet, governments and markets are already overreacting. And individual investors can use these overblown fears to their advantage. Jim Cramer recently made some alarming comments about using the military to enforce vaccines. Prepare for a rant... Enjoyed this episode?

    How to prepare for the Omicron circus Nov 30, 2021

    So much for a relaxing Thanksgiving break… Markets sold off on news of the new COVID variant, Omicron, and volatility is soaring. I expect both the media and the government to overreact… But don’t worry: In today’s show, I lay out what you need to know—and do—in the coming weeks to prepare your portfolio. [0:30] While we still don’t know much about Omicron, countries around the world are already restricting travel. I highlight the dangers of governments reacting prematurely… what we currently know about the new variant… and how the narrative has changed around vaccines. [7:25] I also explain why the market selloff we’re seeing is illogical… and how the media and big business—especially Big Pharma—use fear to make profits. [13:00] But volatility leads to opportunities... Here’s what investors should be focused on as we prepare for the Omicron circus. [21:30] Fed Chair Jerome Powell testified on Capitol Hill today regarding the country’s economic outlook—including ongoing inflationary pressures. I break down the huge mistake the Fed continues to make… why inflation isn’t priced into this market… and why we need to be prepared for it to get much worse before it gets better. [31:40] Finally, I explain why Genia Turanova’s strategy is the perfect way to hedge today’s market risks—and why I personally follow it with my own money. [39:15] Enjoyed this episode?

    America’s blue-collar crisis could crush the economy Nov 24, 2021

    Today we welcome back one of our most downloaded—and controversial—guests of all time... Kristin Tate, author of The Liberal Invasion of Red State America, is back on the podcast to discuss public policy, culture, and cryptos. [1:35] During the COVID lockdowns, as businesses shifted to remote work, we saw a huge migration of people out of big cities and into more suburban and rural parts of the country. But Kristin says the shift had been taking place long before COVID forced the push forward. She explains why big cities will never return to the major corporate and cultural hubs they once were. [2:38] For instance, New York City’s newly elected Mayor Eric Adams has a mission: convince former residents to return to the Big Apple. Kristin highlights why he’s unlikely to succeed. [6:00] You’ve undoubtedly heard of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial… It’s just another example of how everything is politicized today—drawing a hard line between conservatives and liberals. We discuss how moderates are getting sick of the narrative… [12:15] If you’re traveling for the holidays, Kristin lays out a few issues that could wreak havoc on your plans... [16:35] And as we face labor shortages—especially in certain blue-collar industries—she reveals the cultural issues behind the problem. [21:00] Next, Kristin gives her thoughts on who will win big during next November’s midterm elections… and how she expects politicians to double-down with their respective voter bases. [23:40] Turning to crypto, Kristin shares her own holdings… and why she’s bullish on the asset class in the short term, but bearish over the much longer term... [26:30] Finally, Kristin gives us a glimpse into her next book… and the role she’s playing in Texas’ upcoming political race. [32:10] Enjoyed this episode?

    How to profit from Biden’s destruction of America Nov 23, 2021

    With a short holiday week, we’re changing up the format a bit… so no monologue today. But I have an exciting—and controversial—interview for you tomorrow (hint: It’s one of our most downloaded guests of all time). [0:35] I love this time of year… It means I get to look forward to the annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES), held in Las Vegas in January. Here’s how I’m preparing… [3:05] Following another great quarter from Dick’s Sporting Goods, Daniel and I debate whether now is a good time to buy the stock. [3:55] Best Buy also reported solid earnings… yet it’s trading over 10% lower. I share why, despite strong results, many retailers are in a tough position compared to this time last year. [6:35] Keeping with retail, Daniel explains why he’s more bullish than ever on Amazon, Target, and Walmart… and why last week’s selloff in the latter two names isn’t anything to worry about. [12:20] Markets are near all-time highs and many growth companies are sporting huge valuations (electric truck maker Rivian comes to mind)... But when it comes to growth stocks, you can’t just focus on valuation—I learned this lesson myself with Netflix and Tesla. [20:40] Big news came out of the oil sector this week: The U.S. announced it would be releasing 50 million barrels of oil from its strategic petroleum reserves (SPR) to help fight higher prices. Prepare for a rant: The Biden Administration is making a huge mistake in terms of national security… and it could lead to the destruction of the U.S. economy. [26:35] That said, as we know… there’s a way to profit in any market. And Daniel shares two names set to benefit on the news. [34:50] And finally, if you haven’t heard yet, Luke Downey’s Big Money Trader has officially launched. Here’s how Luke’s options strategy can help you make the most of the market’s sudden moves.

    From stock-picking monkeys to security tokens: A 40-year history of Curzio Research Nov 18, 2021

    Today’s guest is someone you may have talked to personally: my sister, Christine Curzio. She’s head of human resources and customer service here at Curzio Research (among the many other hats she wears). Customers don’t typically call when things are going great. Most often, they call when there’s a fire to put out. Christine shares some of the wildest issues we’ve faced at Curzio... and how we implement our mission of always doing right by you, the customer. [1:25] Now, customer service isn’t all negative stories... Christine highlights some great feedback she’s received from folks looking out for us. [5:28] But if you’re thinking, “the customer is always right,” well… think again. We explain why you’ve got to protect your brand and employees… and even be willing to part ways with customers under certain circumstances. [7:28] We reminisce about the old days working with our late father... and break down the major industry changes we’ve seen over the years—like the advent of security tokens. And Christine shares a funny story involving our dad competing against a stock-picking monkey. [10:05] We also share some amazing gifts we’ve received from customers… [17:40] Finally, Christine lays out some key “backend” factors and growing pains that every business owner should be aware of… and how to adapt.

    Big Money Trader: Your ticket to trade the world’s best growth stocks Nov 17, 2021

    Yes, Elon… Sanders is still alive. If you haven’t heard the latest drama surrounding Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s Twitter account, he and Senator Bernie Sanders exchanged jabs this week over the two things humans can’t escape: death and taxes. Daniel and I share a laugh over the spat. [1:06] The end of earnings season means the release of 13Fs... where the largest money managers disclose what they bought and sold during the previous quarter. As Peloton shares tumbled this quarter, Viking Global—a popular hedge fund—scooped up millions of shares… We speculate whether it’s already unloaded shares for a loss. [4:20] 13Fs can be a great place to find new ideas… Daniel highlights a couple of new names he discovered that he’s now digging into… And I point out what caught my attention in big tech. [11:18] The price of bitcoin dropped 10% overnight... and other cryptos are following suit. Here’s the best way for investors to handle the volatility… (It’s how we manage our Crypto Intelligence portfolio, which currently holds 5 quadruple-digit winners.) [21:51] Finally, I explain why Luke Downey’s Big Money Trader—launching today!—is the easiest way to maximize your returns on the best growth opportunities in the market.

    The easiest way to lose $1 million in the stock market Nov 16, 2021

    AMC is currently trading over $40 per share… Yet, one analyst note I recently read is calling for a target price of $1 on the stock. The company may have seemed left for dead following the COVID lockdowns… but it’s made some impressive strides over the past year. Today, I explain why this analyst’s way of thinking is the easiest way to lose millions in the stock market. [0:40] Is the supply chain crisis “fake news”? One listener says he’s not seeing any shortages on the shelves while shopping. I break down why the supply chain crisis doesn’t impact every company the same way… but it’s very real, especially in specific sectors. [23:25] After a slow start to 2021 for security tokens, the market is picking up as we approach the end of the year. A listener wants my take on the industry's progress and what to expect in the coming months. I highlight several exciting updates in the space… including a coming Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) regulation that will be a major tailwind for security tokens. [30:55] Finally, Luke Downey’s Big Money Trader launches this week. Here’s what it can do for your portfolio… [34:30] ---- Enjoyed this episode?

    Invest alongside ‘the Tom Brady of mining’ Nov 11, 2021

    Gold hasn’t been a particularly exciting asset class recently… but that’s quickly changing. Gold prices are approaching their six-month highs… near $1,900 per ounce. And Ed Karr—former chairman of U.S. Gold Corp. and fan-favorite guest—predicts the price will hit $3,000 next year. Today, he’s back on the show to discuss current market conditions—including two factors that will lead to a rally in gold prices. [1:30] Listen as Ed shares some positive news—and a huge catalyst—for his company, U.S. Gold, and what investors should expect over the coming months… including a major under-the-radar boost from the infrastructure bill. [10:00] Ed’s built an incredible team at U.S. Gold… and he recently turned over the reins to CEO George Bee. He recounts George’s successes… and explains why he’s excited to see a man he describes as “the Tom Brady of mining” in the driver’s seat. [20:45] One thing I love about Ed is he isn’t your typical goldbug… Today, he shares why he’s bullish on crypto… and what he expects as this innovative asset class matures over the next several years.

    Why Ford made a huge mistake with Rivian Nov 10, 2021

    Tesla CEO Elon Musk is once again making headlines, polling his Twitter followers about whether to sell billions’ worth of Tesla stock. Daniel and I discuss the drama around the famously polarizing CEO... and whether investors should pay attention to his latest tweet storm. [1:00] Keeping with the theme of electric vehicles (EVs), electric pickup maker Rivian begins trading today… and the numbers are absolutely crazy. I explain what this says about current market conditions… and why Ford made a huge mistake investing in this rival. [8:05] Crypto exchange Coinbase reported weak earnings this week. While I have some concerns around this company… Daniel makes a case for why investors should buy the stock at current levels. [17:30] Musk wasn’t the only one causing a stir on social media this week… Daniel and I wade into Pfizer’s Twitter meme drama… and the uproar over Aaron Rodgers’ vaccination status. [27:00] In , I just updated Amazon from a hold to a buy. The move might have surprised members, given Amazon is already boasting over 200% gains for the portfolio… But this is a critical lesson on generating wealth over the long term. [31:35] Finally, I’m incredibly excited to share some details about our latest product, Big Money Trader—launching next week. [37:35] Enjoyed this episode?

    The greatest market conditions you’ll ever see… and why you should be nervous Nov 09, 2021

    Congress has finally passed an infrastructure bill, and it’s now heading to President Biden's desk… Here’s what that means for inflation and supply chain issues... [0:30] Right now, we’re in the best market conditions I’ve ever seen: Stocks are near all-time highs as we come off an excellent earnings season… Bitcoin and gold are both moving higher… But this can’t last forever—especially since the Fed can’t afford to misstep. Here’s how to prepare... [6:40] Just this morning, online gaming platform Roblox reported strong earnings… and the momentum is primed to continue. This incredible company gives investors exposure to what will become one of the most important trends of our lifetime... [27:30] Finally, I explain General Electric’s split into three separate companies… and whether it’s a good idea. [30:05] Enjoyed this episode?

    Ignore valuations… Focus on these 3 factors instead Nov 04, 2021

    My friend and colleague Luke Downey—editor of The Big Money Report here at Curzio Research—joins the show to help me make a big announcement... [1:35] But first, Luke shares the story of how he began following the “Big Money”—the growth stock strategy that helped him retire from Wall Street at 31—and what led him to his latest macro prediction… which proved to be spot on. [2:55] It can be hard to commit to buying growth stocks, since they tend to trade at such high valuations… But Luke says you should look past valuations and focus on three other factors instead… [6:20] If you think it takes big money to follow the “Big Money”... think again. Luke gives two examples of how he turned two small positions into massive gains... And shares exactly how he uncovers great ideas like these. [9:05] OK, onto the big announcement… Luke’s new options trading advisory, Big Money Trader, is launching soon. Here’s what subscribers can expect... [15:20] And if you’re not familiar with options, don’t worry: Luke explains why these trades don’t need to be scary. [24:50] Enjoyed this episode?

    Are the days of shorting stocks over? Nov 03, 2021

    Back from a quick trip to Ohio, Daniel shares his latest experience with the airports and traveling. [0:15] We discuss the Virginia governor race… what it says about the current mood in the U.S… and how the results will impact spending bills being negotiated right now. [3:10] We’ve seen some wild price action in Avis Budget and Bed Bath & Beyond this earnings season. I lay out the reasons behind these parabolic moves... and a critical lesson about shorting stocks. [8:05] Zillow Group’s weak Q3 earnings were shortly followed by news that the company would be canceling its artificial intelligence (AI) house-flipping program. Daniel highlights some crazy stats around its real estate… and why you shouldn’t get caught up in the euphoria around the housing boom. [16:45] Nike is set to report earnings next month. Daniel and I debate the pros and cons of buying the stock going into the report. [24:25] And finally, we share our thoughts on JPMorgan limiting its clients’ ability to buy certain marijuana stocks... and explain why you should be paying attention to Meta—the company previously known as Facebook—now more than ever.

    The “great separation” in stocks is starting... Here’s how to avoid getting smoked Nov 02, 2021

    The “great separation” is starting… and if you’re not paying attention to it… you’re at risk... But first, I’m humbled and grateful that so many of you took advantage of our Crypto Intelligence special offer. Members: Expect a new recommendation to hit your inbox tomorrow! [0:34] I hope you had a great Halloween. Ours was amazing… with tons of families out trick-or-treating in my neighborhood. It was like it’s supposed to be. [2:20] Turning to the markets… The major indices are hitting record highs as earnings season winds down. I share what stood out the most as I went through the latest results. And I break down the “great separation” I’m seeing in certain industries. [7:40] It’s been over 18 months since the COVID lows… and the markets are starting a new chapter. I point out several examples of the “great separation” across industries... including the opposite paths that Intel and AMD are taking… as well as Under Armour and Nike. Plus, I share why Amazon will continue to dominate (even though it pulled back after earnings). [14:10] Speaking of great companies, a listener wants my thoughts on tech giant Nvidia ahead of its earnings report. [19:50] Our last question comes from an older investor who’s getting into crypto… and wants to know about taxable gains. I dig into the details a bit… and explain why stable coins can be especially useful when you’re juggling different trading platforms. [27:36] Enjoyed this episode?

    The security token revolution is just beginning... And these names are leading the charge Oct 28, 2021

    The security token market is seeing some exciting changes… Kyle Sonlin, CEO at Security Token Market, joins the show to share what’s changed in the space over the last year—including clearer insights on regulatory issues. [1:15] Speaking of regulatory breakthroughs, Kyle also explains why recent changes to the Securities & Exchange Commission’s (SEC) Regulation A is creating incredible momentum for security tokens [4:00]... and what needs to happen for this industry to scale in a massive way.

    Robinhood: Stealing from the poor and giving to the rich Oct 27, 2021

    Robinhood just reported a terrible quarter. Prepare for a rant at the end of the show… But first, let’s look at some other company earnings… Some of the biggest names in tech have reported—and Daniel and I discuss which companies are separating themselves from the pack. [1:20] Next, a company Daniel’s been bullish on reported a bad quarter. Daniel breaks down what he got wrong about the tech leader... why the stock dropped 10%... and one post-earnings silver lining. [4:18] While Facebook and Twitter both reported incredible earnings… their stocks pulled back on the news. Is now a good time to buy these social media giants? [9:15] Speaking of Facebook, the company has some impressive goals for building out the “metaverse.” Investors need to pay attention and keep an open mind about this coming megatrend. [14:15] When it comes to successful investing, one of the best strategies is to invest in smart people with strong convictions. There are some you just don’t bet against—like Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey, and Elon Musk. [19:50] Finally, Robinhood is doing the exact opposite of what its name stands for...

    Over 2 billion people will soon have access to bitcoin Oct 26, 2021

    Earnings season is in full swing... and some of the largest companies report this week. I highlight a few winners and losers—like Tesla, Facebook, UPS, and Intel—and the most important characteristics to pay attention to as companies report. [0:40] Gold—which has been out of favor for some time—is quietly moving higher… and conditions are perfect for certain stocks to explode from current levels. [3:05] As cryptocurrencies continue towards new highs… the biggest story in the space this week has been the partnership between Mastercard and crypto payments network Bakkt—which will bring bitcoin access to more than two million people. [5:25] Next, I share some exciting news in the security token industry... and how investors can take advantage of this multitrillion-dollar opportunity.

Daniel and I discuss the streaming giant’s new hit show, Squid Game, and how the company continues to be the king of great content. [2:00] United Airlines also reported a strong quarter... and foresees a coming bottom to COVID impacts. This is great news as travel returns to pre-pandemic levels. [8:40] In other airline news, Southwest decided to back off vaccine mandates. Daniel explains why this issue goes beyond airlines… and how mandates can hurt local economies. [10:40] Facebook has chosen Coinbase to roll out its crypto wallet, Novi. Daniel shares why he’s bullish on the social media giant despite not being a fan of its services. [22:05] Bitcoin hit a fresh all-time high today. The news comes on the heels of the launch of the ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITO), which began trading this week.

    The easiest way to make money in today's volatile market Oct 19, 2021

    Biden’s vaccine mandate will crush our economy Oct 14, 2021

    Changing things up a bit this week… Daniel returns to discuss current events. We start by going over a bizarre situation involving Southwest Airlines... The airline canceled nearly 2,000 flights over the weekend, blaming it on bad weather. Daniel and I discuss the role vaccine mandates are playing in the disruption. [1:30] Speaking of vaccine mandates, I’m done sugarcoating this: Freedoms are being taken away from individuals here in the U.S. While I'm personally vaccinated, I strongly believe it should be an individual choice… and these mandates will crush our economy. [5:30] Inflation is making it a tough environment for finding ideas. Daniel explains why he’s focusing on ESG (environmental, social, and governance). [18:40] With earnings season kicking into full gear, we share what we’re most excited about as we dig through earnings results. [28:20] Lastly, if you’re looking for an easy way to add crypto to your portfolio, keep an eye out for a special offer I’m putting together for my Crypto Intelligence advisory.

    Where to find the best ideas during earnings season Oct 13, 2021

    William Shatner is heading to space! Daniel and I open today’s show with some banter about our favorite Shatner roles... and whether we’d go to space for a thrill. [0:40] Earnings season is officially underway... And now is a great time to sift through company reports for the best ideas… We discuss what stood out to us about Delta Airlines’ quarterly results... and why this company has a fantastic long-term outlook. [4:10] On JPMorgan’s earnings call, CEO Jamie Dimon said he doesn’t think supply chains will be a talking point by next year. While I disagree with this, Daniel believes a recent sign is pointing to the bottom of supply chain woes. [8:50] On BlackRock’s earnings call, CEO Larry Fink pointed out the obvious—that inflation isn’t transitory… and energy prices will continue rising for the foreseeable future. Daniel and I discuss the factors behind rising costs... and why you need to prepare for higher prices across the board. [15:55] And finally, the U.S. is now the leader in bitcoin mining. Daniel explains why this is a great teachable moment about innovation… and yet another example of how cryptos are maturing into a dominant asset class. [27:20] Enjoyed this episode?

    The 3 biggest growth trends in crypto… and how to profit Oct 12, 2021

    The media sells fear to get clicks... And that makes it difficult to sift through the noise and find the truth. I run through a few recent headlines designed to scare the hell out of you… a potential U.S. debt default, China fears, and inflation. [0:30] But amid the fearmongering and government recklessness… bitcoin is poised to benefit. We’re still in the early stages of this incredible industry… I expect other countries to follow in El Salvador’s footsteps and recognize bitcoin as a legal tender. And 3 new trends within the digital asset space are particularly disrupting Wall Street... [7:30] I have a fun exercise for you: Next time you’re at Starbucks, pay with bitcoin. You’ll see how easy and cheap it is and why mass adoption is a matter of “when,” not “if.” [16:45] Cryptocurrencies are the best risk/reward opportunity for individual investors… I explain why you need exposure to this asset class right away.

    The Fed can no longer save us Oct 07, 2021

    Andrew Horowitz, president of Horowitz & Company and fan-favorite guest, joins me to discuss the volatile market… and why you shouldn’t worry about the debt ceiling debate. [0:46] He explains why investors need to pay attention to who has pricing power this earnings season… and why investors are losing confidence in the Federal Reserve. [4:10] Next, he shares how investors should position themselves for the risks in the market… why supply chains are being disrupted by COVID... and how complications in manufacturing and trucking could lead to an economic slowdown. [7:48] Andrew also gives his thoughts on the Fed’s game plan going forward... why the coming “taper” may not mean what most investors think… and why the Fed can’t simply print money forever. [11:25] He urges investors to lean toward value stocks... reveals some names that could suffer as the economy reopens… and shares his favorite ideas right now. [18:10] Enjoyed this episode?

    Forget intrinsic value… Here’s why you need to buy bitcoin Oct 06, 2021

    Daniel just returned from a trip to Arizona… and has some interesting observations about the labor shortage in airports. [0:35] While on his trip, Daniel was able to speak with business owners involved in construction and real estate… He shares some insight on these sectors… and explains why inflation will get much worse before it gets better. [5:30] Automakers continue to deal with semiconductor shortages and supply chain issues… but Tesla seems to be bucking this trend. Quite frankly, some of the bearish price targets on Tesla seem ridiculous. Daniel and I discuss whether sell-side analysis is meaningless in today’s investing world… and Daniel divulges which automaker he’d buy right now, and why (hint: it involves politics). [22:30] As bitcoin prices jumped over $50k, JPMorgan CEO and famous bitcoin skeptic Jamie Dimon took yet another dig at the asset’s “intrinsic value.” Daniel and I examine the “intrinsic value” argument… and highlight why you don’t need to worry about the U.S. banning crypto anytime soon—and why you need exposure to bitcoin… [25:25] And for an easy way to add crypto to your portfolio, make sure to check out my advisory. We’ve got some massive winners in the portfolio—I’m talking in the triple and quadruple digits—with more room to run. [33:00] Enjoyed this episode?

    What Axl Rose can teach us about today’s economy Oct 05, 2021

    It’s been a crazy several months here at Curzio Research. (If you haven’t heard, our will soon be trading here in the U.S. on the tZERO platform.) My wife and I decided to get away for the weekend... And inflation is everywhere… from the cost of food and drink… to hotels and parking (which we found out at a Guns N’ Roses concert). [00:30] If that wasn’t bad enough, the casino’s jackpot sizes were tiny. The casino we visited is on Native American land. I share some wild stats on how Native American casinos are regulated... and what makes them different from other casinos. [12:05] Next, I explain why FedEx is warning about the rising costs of raw material and labor… and why we need to be prepared for a lot more companies to do the same. [18:00] A listener gives me a pat on the back for my COVID coverage and shares his experience with the virus. I share some data on why some folks are willing to get the vaccine... while others are still reluctant. Plus, I reiterate why it should be a personal choice to make. [27:10] Carbon Streaming Corporation just announced a reverse stock split. I’m an investor in this company, and a listener wants to know if I'm concerned. In short, no. I explain why management is taking this action... and why it’s great for investors. [30:17] Enjoyed this episode?

    Inflation could ruin Christmas this year Sep 30, 2021

    The market continues to be volatile. Daniel and I discuss the political theatrics surrounding the U.S. debt ceiling... and whether investors need to worry. [0:40] Two Fed presidents resigned this week over controversial personal stock trades. Daniel goes on a quick rant about why this is a sliver of positive news... and why you shouldn’t feel sorry for them. [6:50] As interest rates continue to move higher, investors are realizing inflation isn’t transitory. For months, I’ve been saying inflation is the biggest risk to the markets. Today, I lay out why tech stocks are hurt the most by higher rates... and why we haven’t seen a bottom in the supply chain woes. [8:35] Meanwhile, rising costs have led a couple of major corporations to issue lower guidance… Be prepared: As winter approaches—and particularly the holiday season—hundreds of companies across sectors will be forced to do the same... [11:40] And, with supply chain pressure expected to continue for months, Daniel and I share several names to pay attention to as capital flows out of growth stocks and into cyclical/value plays.

    There’s still hope for Gen Z investors Sep 29, 2021

    My nephew, Joe Davide, is back on the show to discuss investing from the Gen Z perspective. If you’ve never heard Joe before, you’re in for a treat... Listeners love his authenticity and transparency. [0:38] Today, he gives an update on how his portfolio has fared over the last six months. [3:45] In a great teachable moment, we discuss how to manage winners and losers... and what led Joe to have a change of heart and sell several positions. [6:30] He explains where he’s finding his ideas... and how he conducts research before pulling the trigger on stocks. [9:37] Next, Joe shares why he only holds one position right now—a SPAC—and explains why he’s planning to hold for the long term. I share my opinion on this name… point out a few things to pay attention to when looking at the fundamentals… and explain why SPACs could have a lot of pain ahead. [11:25] Finally, we discuss the most important investing lesson… why you must focus on portfolio management... and staying in the investing game over the long term. [23:30] Enjoyed this episode?

    The government is forcing companies to invest trillions in this trend Sep 28, 2021

    One of the best things about my job is getting in early on the biggest trends. I recap some of the biggest bull markets we’ve seen over recent years, from commodities… to crypto… to the Internet of Things (IoT)... and much more. [0:30] Smart investors were able to make life-changing gains off of all of these trends… But there’s one I believe will be bigger than any we’ve ever seen before: environmental, social, and governance (ESG) ordinances to fight climate change. [7:19] I lay out some data on why ESG is set to create one of the biggest investing opportunities we’ve ever seen in the history of the markets… including how the government is forcing upside. [11:48] And I share several companies set to profit from this trend, ranging from solar companies to automakers… including where I just personally invested $100k. [15:30] Speaking of energy, as the price of uranium moves higher, a subscriber asks if she’s missed the window of opportunity. In short, no… and I explain why you want to scale into these positions over time. [23:40] Interested in being a newsletter analyst? I explain why you need to find your own style… and my plan on starting an investing clinic over the next few months. [27:43] Enjoyed this episode?

    Why the “central banking cartel” is afraid of crypto Sep 23, 2021

    Frank Holmes, CEO and chief investment officer of U.S. Global Investors (and fan-favorite guest), joins me to discuss everything from travel… to retail investors… to the “central banking cartel” and more... As travel begins to get somewhat back to normal, Frank explains why he’s bullish on airlines. [0:55] We also discuss how the internet has helped retail investors outperform Wall Street... [4:55] Turning to cryptos… Frank gives his take on rumors of more government regulation… and why the “central banking cartel” is attacking crypto and gold. [7:36] Frank is executive chairman and interim CEO of Hive Blockchain, a crypto mining company. He explains why the company is a perfect fit for the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) movement. [11:32] He also shares why, despite government resistance, he believes cryptos are here to stay. [17:41] It’s a perfect environment for higher gold and silver prices. Central banks are printing endless amounts of paper money... inflation continues to rise… and silver is needed to satisfy clean energy demand. Frank explains how shady players can manipulate gold and silver prices… and what gold producers should do to boost their share prices. [19:47] Finally, Frank shares one country he’s bullish on that may surprise you… and a fund that offers an easy way to gain exposure. [25:40] Enjoyed this episode?

    When an infrastructure bill passes… sell stocks Sep 22, 2021

    This week, we’re doing things a little differently. Today’s episode covers Daniel’s and my take on the top news… The regular weekly interview segment (featuring the legendary Frank Holmes) will air tomorrow. Let’s get to it... You undoubtedly know by now about the collapse of Chinese property juggernaut Evergrande. Daniel and I debate whether now is a good time to gain exposure to China. [1:23] Will we see an infrastructure bill this year? Daniel explains why it would make more sense (politically) for Democrats to wait until next year… While I think they’ll want to pass it right away. But regardless of when it happens… I explain why you should be prepared to sell a lot of your stocks when the bill does pass. [12:21] FedEx missed earnings expectations and announced massive price increases… [16:53] Cracker Barrel also missed earnings, and warned about higher commodity and wage costs… [25:14] Finally, Disney warned investors about slowing growth… causing a hit to the stock. [28:17] Is it a good time to buy any of these companies? Daniel and I share our thoughts on each. Enjoyed this episode?

    Why you should be buying China on this pullback Sep 21, 2021

    What a wild week so far—and it’s only Tuesday… Yesterday, we saw stocks drop 2%, leading the way for everything else—gold, bitcoin, you name it—to sell off as well. [0:34] You’ve probably heard by now that Evergrande—a Chinese real estate company and one of the biggest property developers in the world—is crumbling… But this shouldn’t be surprising: Recent events have foreshadowed the juggernaut’s demise. The bigger question on everyone’s mind: Will this pose a systemic risk to the world economy? [2:24] Meanwhile, the volatility caused by Evergrande has brought the bears out of hiding... Now they’re roaring about further downside risk. [10:39] Some are even comparing Evergrande to the financial crisis of 2008-2009… I give my take on this comparison… how I believe the Chinese government will choose to handle the situation… and what the biggest risk to the market is (hint: it’s not Evergrande). [17:40] As the situation plays out, I explain why I’m not selling Chinese stocks… In fact, I’m looking to add exposure to China on this pullback. [23:15] Finally, I point out the biggest risk to the crypto space... [31:31] Enjoyed this episode?

    What I learned as a fly on the wall among America’s political elite Sep 16, 2021

    I just returned from a quick business trip to Texas, where I had the opportunity to meet several elites… from the state governor to well-known billionaires. I share details of the great trip… and explain the power of a massive network. [0:30] Vaccine mandates continue to dominate headlines. Daniel and I discuss the various impacts of possible mandatory vaccines for air travel. [9:15] China—which has caused volatility across industries in recent months—is now taking aim at the casino sector. We discuss why uncertainty is terrible for investors… and debate whether it’s time to build some exposure to China. [19:00] With uranium prices continuing to surge, our interview with Amir Adnani from a couple of weeks ago couldn’t have come at a better time. I explain why you want exposure to this sector… [26:13] Enjoyed this episode?

    My personal experience with COVID-19 (Ep. 752) Dec 16, 2020

    Today’s podcast is a little unusual. There’s no guest. There’s no educational segment with Daniel. The reason for this change in format is because I tested positive for COVID-19. I share how my family and I are doing… what the testing and recovery process is like… and—of course—all the recent data on the virus and the vaccine. Then, with rumors of another government stimulus package in the news, I explain why these measures are a far cry from the 2008 financial crisis bailout. It's time for politicians to stop talking and start taking action. Finally, I answer a few questions ranging in topic from uranium stocks… to my beloved Philadelphia Eagles… to a few things you might not know about me. Enjoyed this episode?

    Your earnings season survival guide (Ep.639) Oct 10, 2018

    Earnings season kicks off next week… So I invited John Petrides of back today to tell us what to expect. I love having John on the show because of his wealth of knowledge across many different sectors. He’s one of the best analysts I know when it comes to breaking down earnings from macro and micro perspectives. And we’re likely to see incredible volatility in many stocks during the season. Since last quarter, we’ve seen an uptick in energy prices and wages—two of the biggest costs for companies. The U.S. dollar has also run higher, which could cut into profits for companies that do business overseas. And increased tensions between the U.S. and China on trade could cause further inflationary headwinds. These risks create a huge layer of uncertainty for management teams… which could lead to less-than-optimistic forecasts when they report earnings results over the next few weeks. And earnings forecasts (guidance) are what drives stock prices. Today, John shares a list of stocks every investor should pay close attention to during earnings season. These companies will give you a great perspective on the global markets and how to position your portfolio. He also highlights some of his favorite names heading into earnings season… including two you should purchase right now. In my educational segment [52:38], I explain a strategy that’s helped me buy industry-leading companies at an incredible discount to the market… and generate huge profits over my 25-year career. This low-risk/high reward strategy can be used by anyone… but it requires discipline and courage… which is why most investors will never try it.

More importantly, Dennis shares his new venture with us. It’s a junior mining company that’s using new technology to find high-grade gold deposits in the world’s biggest gold district.

    Financials are down almost 20% on the year… close to bear market territory. But the Fed releases stress test results tomorrow. The banks that pass will be allowed to significantly raise their dividend and launch huge buyback programs… On today’s show, I’ll tell you about about the huge short-term catalysts ahead for this dirt-cheap sector. I also talk to Nate Flanders, cryptocurrency expert and founder of crypto trading exchange Mandala. He and I recently traveled to New York to meet with potential cryptocurrency investors. And we share some exciting details from our trip... Nate also discusses how coming industry regulations will lead to hundreds of millions of institutional dollars pouring into this sector. Trust me, you’ll want to hear this.

Note: In case you didn’t see my email earlier... I decided to reopen the best deal we’ll ever offer on our new Crypto Intelligence service until Friday. After Friday, no one will ever see this offer again… to get the charter deal.

He also shares some interesting stats… including how crypto exchanges are doing more volume than firms like Charles Schwab… and why this volume is not expected to slow any time soon.

    Ignore Italy… Stocks Are Going Higher Over the Next Decade (Ep. 620) May 30, 2018

    No... it’s not just you. Geopolitical change is on all our minds. Right now, everyone’s talking about the turmoil in Italy… but the truth is, this’ll have a minimal impact on the U.S. market. I’ll tell you why on today’s show. But first, I welcome back Steve Koomar, publisher and editor of Vigilante Investor. Steve believes stocks are positioned to show great returns over the next decade. He also highlights his favorite trend in tech… one that’s much bigger than AI, IoT, Big Data, and the cloud… and the stocks he believes will benefit most from this remarkable trend. Later, in my educational segment, I break down the oil sector… including why Russia and OPEC would be crazy to increase production. But there are risks that could push crude lower over the next few months.


    Why I’m Buying This Commodity for the First Time In 10 Years… And It’s Not Gold (Ep.619) May 23, 2018

    I hope you have a pen and notepad ready for today’s show... My good friend Marin Katusa returns to tell us why gold could go a lot lower over the next few months. He suggests buying a popular commodity instead… which he largely avoided for the past decade. Marin is one of the best resource investors I know. And although he’s bearish on gold in the short-term, we discuss why that’s a positive for us as investors. Marin also explains what to look for when evaluating a resource investment (it takes more than just a great discovery...) and how to scale into the best names over time. This is an incredible interview with a lot of great information. Trust me, you’ll want to listen more than once...

I know from experience how difficult it is not to let personal feelings impact your investing… but we’ll discuss why it’s critical that you don’t.

    The 10-Year Treasury Just Broke 3%... Here’s Why You Should Use This Non-Event as a Buying Opportunity (EP.615) Apr 26, 2018

    Welcome back to Wall Street Unplugged. Today, everyone is talking about the 10-year Treasury yield—namely, how it just broke 3% for the first time in years. Here’s the truth: this isn’t a big deal—no matter what the media say. This number is still well below historical norms… However, it does present us with a buying opportunity… which I’ll tell you about in today’s show. But before I get to that, I welcome as my guest this week Danielle DiMartino Booth. Danielle is a former adviser at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas and editor of the Money Strong newsletter. Today, she breaks down the impact higher yields will have on individual investors… the fundamental landscape of today’s housing market… and why millennials will be a huge drag on the economy much quicker than most economists are forecasting. I also give you a play-by-play of how I find my best stock ideas. This simple strategy will help you invest in the best stocks before Wall Street finds out about them… and before they’re mentioned in the media.


    Ep. 614: Use The Media’s “Agenda” to Pocket Huge Gains Apr 23, 2018

    Ignore the crazy headlines… In this episode, we talk about how to use the media’s “agenda” to pocket huge gains in stocks. Most headlines are exaggerated. They include phrases like “market crash” and “trade wars.” It doesn’t matter. The market is flat this year and America is not in a trade war with any nation… The media exaggerates these headlines to get page views. That’s how they make money. Yet these headlines (including tweets from our president) can temporarily influence stocks, causing disconnects between a company’s fundamentals and stock price. Smart investors can use these disconnects to invest in some of the world’s greatest companies – like Amazon or Facebook – at incredible discounts. Also in this episode, we breakdown the best banking stock to own right now (it’s not JP Morgan)… and why one major airline will see its stock price rise much higher from here. SHOWNOTES: 0:42 - Long time listener Joe thanks me for my insight on the oil market and asked if he should invest in small or large caps. 5:22 - When you should jump into the oil market... and who is carrying the market. 13:23 - Listener Derrick: Since when is there a maintenance fee on your Curzio Research Advisory Lifetime membership? 13:58 - How the Lifetime membership subscription works. 24:15 - Listener Dave: How much attention should investors give to employee engagements and potential unionization attempts? 35:03 - Ten-year listener Doug asks whether he should keep his money in a current stock pick I recommended a while back. 40:35 - I’ll be launching a product that’s new to the industry… It will include a weekly new pick. 41:20 Be sure to like our . I’m posting live videos and will soon be posting live interviews.


    Ep. 613: Why Great Investors Ignore the Headlines Apr 19, 2018

    Welcome back to Wall Street Unplugged. My guest this week is Corby Marshall, CEO of Hilltop Cybersecurity. (Full disclosure: I’m an early investor in this company.) Corby joins me from the RSA cybersecurity conference to discuss what we should all be thinking about it when it comes to protecting our data. You’ll also be fascinated to hear what led him to into this space... Later, we’ll talk about how important it is to look beyond the headlines when it comes to evaluating a stock. Read the story no one else is telling—because news stories aren’t often digging into the fundamentals. I also take a few moments to vent about the media’s obsession with the Mark Zuckerberg Facebook hearings and the James Comey publicity book tour. 0:33 – Why did we make such a big deal about the Mark Zuckerberg hearings on CNBC? 4:20 - Can we trust the biggest companies in a space to regulate their own industry? 6:35 - I watched James Comey’s latest PR blitz for his book trashing the President. 9:18 - Democrats need to stop lingering on this Russia collusion nonsense. 10:33 - Netflix reported good numbers, but of course, someone always goes on TV and says they’re worried about the company’s expenses… I’m not. 14:24 - So excited that we are into earnings season. 16:25 - Seeing a lot of potential in cybersecurity, so I’m also excited to be chatting with Corby Marshall, CEO of Hilltop cybersecurity. 19:20 - Corby’s background and why he got into cybersecurity. 21:42 - What are the latest trends in cybersecurity he’s seeing at the RSA conference? 24:02 - How vulnerable are normal people online? 27:04 - The formation of Hilltop and how it strives to be better than the competition. 30:35 - What scares Corby the most. 33:19 - How important is it to have a great team. 37:18 - Hilltop’s involvement in the cryptocurrency space and protecting its customers. 40:45 - Connecting with Corby at 45:24 - Cancel newsletters where their editors aren’t allowed to buy stocks. 46:55 - It’s not whether or not a stock is expensive, it’s about its growth potential. 48:45 - Find the story that no one else is talking about. 50:44 - For example, how I looked at the defense sector during sequester talks back in 2012. 52:34 - Another example, big pharma and the patent cliff that people were worried about.


    Ep. 612: Frankly Speaking | This is Your Brain on Stocks Apr 16, 2018

The reason you listen to me, subscribe to the newsletters, and read our research is so you can focus on your life and take advantage of our “stock brains” here at Curzio Research. On this episode, we talk about what it means to have a stock brain. And we touch on other programs offering financial advice.

There are plenty of people who give out financial advice... but many don’t think about how those calls will impact real people like you.

Is that normal? 27:35 - I take you through my stock brain when I read a headline, listen to a conference call, or analyze a company. 30:45 - Check out Thursday’s on why I don’t believe stocks will crash. 34:54 - Make sure you like our for more live videos we’re producing.


    EP. 611: It’s a Stock Picker’s Market… If You’re Smart Apr 12, 2018

    Welcome back to Wall Street Unplugged. This week, my guest is Mike Alkin, editor of Moneyflow Trader and host of the . Even though Mike writes his newsletter for Curzio Research, he and I often have differing views on the markets. (Mike is bearish and I’m more of a bull.) Even so, we generally find common ground. I have a lot of respect for his knowledge and opinions. Today, Mike reviews how he analyzes stock news and what helps him decide whether a company is going to have success in the future. Then in my educational segment [50:15], I talk market risk factors. The media is hyping three main risks right now: rising inflation, rising interest rates, and a potential trade war. All of these things have investors running for the hills. But the truth is, they’re not the negative market forces the headlines are making them out to be. Listen to find out why...

    Ep. 610: Frankly Speaking | The Risks vs. Rewards of Hedge Funds Apr 09, 2018

    Welcome back to Frankly Speaking. There are a lot of myths surrounding hedge funds, particularly how much yield they create vs. how much it costs you to invest in them. Today I debunk some of those myths, and remind you of the risks vs. rewards of hedge funds. Remember, the better they do, the more risk they take with your money. I also discuss some big changes coming to Curzio Research. We’re getting ready to unveil some exciting new products… and share some special offers with our subscribers. On today’s episode, I also stress the importance of ignoring the market noise. Brexit... tariffs... it doesn’t matter. You can always ride these waves with proper portfolio management.

All of this comes ahead of the cryptocurrency newsletter we’re launching in May. Make sure you subscribe to our free email list now to be the first to know about this product when it’s launched. I get a little heated over negative news about Amazon and complaints that it’s ruined businesses across the country—especially when the complaint comes from a company that did its own share of putting others out of business: Walmart. Meanwhile, other folks are complaining that Amazon has an unfair advantage due to its relationship with the United States Postal Service. Today, I explain why the USPS needs Amazon, despite arguments that the postal service is getting the losing end of the deal. I know some of you might be panicking about the scary trade wars talk and how it’s impacted the market. I’ll tell you why we won’t have a trade war... and why tariffs on goods coming into the United States are actually a good thing.

    Ep. 605: America May Be Entering Its Fourth Economic Revolution Mar 21, 2018

    Welcome back to Wall Street Unplugged. I have an incredible show for you today... I don't read many newsletters, but I always make a make a point to read Vigilante Investor, edited by today’s guest Steve Koomar. Unlike many newsletter writers, Steve always backs up his thesis with hard facts, and I learn something new from every issue. Steve and I discuss all the negative headlines about Trump’s new tariffs—propelling fears of a trade war that could ultimately hurt the U.S. Like myself, Steve believes these news stories have it wrong. On today’s episode, we break down why. And you won’t believe Steve’s expectations for stock market returns over the next several years... He explains how the recent tax cuts, combined with deregulation, will lead to the kind of economic expansion we haven’t seen since the New Deal. And one of the best bull markets in a generation.

    March Madness is upon us! As many of you know, college basketball is my favorite sport. Today, I kick off the show by breaking down the brackets and sharing my predictions for who will make the Final Four. But even if you’re not a sports fan, you’ll want to stay tuned, because later on, I interview the brilliant Marin Katusa, founder of Katusa Research. Marin is a good friend of mine and a regular guest of the podcast. He also happens to be one of the best analyst in the resource sector. Today, Marin shares his thoughts on the current environment for gold, and how long he thinks it’ll be until institutional investors start putting their money back into gold stocks. We also discuss a bull market in a commodity that almost nobody is noticing. Marin explains the catalyst behind this bull market, and he shares what he believes could be a takeover target. Then, in my educational segment (48:30), I tell you everything you need to know about the new steel and aluminum tariffs. It’s time to put your “political hat” aside because just about everyone has it wrong when it comes to tariffs. I explain why in today’s episode. Good investing Frank Curzio

    Ep. 601: Where the Risk Really Lies in Today’s Market Mar 07, 2018

    Today, we’re going to tackle some of the biggest issues on every investor’s mind: inflation and a potential trade war. First, we’ll consult with John Petrides of Point View Wealth Management. I try to have John on the show at least once a quarter, because he’s incredibly knowledgeable on all areas of the market. John tells us how inflation (specifically, rising wages) could affect stock prices—and why he isn’t worried about an impending “trade war.” He also shares the sectors he likes today... and a few of his favorite stock ideas. Next, I welcome my good friend and 40-year stock market veteran Richard Suttmeier [41:00]. Rich is the best analyst I know when it comes to the federal budget. He explains how the Fed is trying to “unwind” its balance sheet… how its actions could hurt Main Street… and what to expect over the next 12 months. Rich also reveals which assets he currently likes and which he doesn’t––including one “safe” asset that could soon roll over. Click here to listen. Good investing, Frank Curzio

Marc and I chat about his new book, You Don’t Have to Drive an Uber in Retirement. The book shares money-making ideas for retirement that don’t require working a job you hate. Marc recently attended the JP Morgan Healthcare conference (the Who’s Who of Healthcare conferences). Listen closely as Marc shares some of his favorite picks from the conference… and tells us what to look for before investing in a biotech stock. You’ll also hear some of Mark’s favorite income stock ideas. Then, in my educational segment [42:42], I share two of my favorite tools for finding little-known investment ideas.

You’ll learn why Chris thinks everyone should have money allocated to cryptocurrencies... his “Five Phase Cycle” for investing in cryptos… and the safest way to store them. Over the next couple of weeks, big retailers report earnings. In my educational segment [42:40], I’ll give you a game plan for how to invest in this sector.

    On this episode, I welcome first-time guest Nathan Flanders. Nate is an entrepreneur, professional cryptocurrency trader, and leads a crypto-trading Facebook page with 80,000 active monthly members. Nate and I discuss crypto volatility… and why trading cryptocurrencies is more about technical analysis than fundamental analysis. You’ll also hear about the new project Nathan is working on… and his passion to educate new crypto investors. But most importantly...

    Ep. 594: Frankly Speaking Feb 10, 2018

    Introducing: The Mike Alkin Show: Talking Stocks Over A Beer Feb 09, 2018

    Join Mike Alkin for the maiden voyage of The Mike Alkin Show--Talking Stocks Over a Beer! In this episode, you’ll hear about an industry where the risk/reward ratio is one of the best available anywhere. As Mike interviews Jordan Trimble, CEO of Skyharbour Resources, you‘ll discover the state of the uranium market today… The trigger that set off a major bear market in uranium... And why the market is about to move much higher very quickly. You’ll learn… How uranium exploration companies have survived a major bear market… Why global demand is increasing… the nations that are driving demand… and why there is tremendous upward price elasticity that could send prices soaring. Jordan exposes the false narrative about uranium demand and shares the truth (it’s the opposite of what you hear through the rumor mill)... Where the richest uranium deposits in the world are located... The forces that have created a uranium deficit—even with secondary uranium supplies— which will take uranium prices to new heights... How major uranium miners are forcing prices higher... A major IPO that is also pushing prices up... How changes to public commodities markets are adding momentum to upward price action... Why a $50 spot price is a very realistic expectation—and how that will create parabolic growth for equity investors... Why ”grade is king” when it comes to uranium—and where you find the highest grade uranium in the world… How Skyharbour is using drones to improve the ability to discover new uranium deposits… and a unique new mining technique that will drive extraction costs down… ease permitting requirements… and minimize environmental impact… And how that could drive improved returns for equity investors. Skyharbour’s growth plans for the next 6 months, including its specific financial situation and exit strategy... Plus, how it plans to take advantage of the macroeconomic shifts occurring today… And what investors might expect from the company as a result. Finally, Mike wraps up with an educational segment in which he shares a surprising nugget of wisdom: Why “mom & pop investors” have a big advantage over professional investors… and exactly what actions you should take to win against the pros. There’s a ton of wisdom packed into today’s episode—so be sure to listen closely!

    The Eagles are world champions! As many of you know, I’m a diehard Philadelphia Eagles fan. I had an amazing time at the Super Bowl this year – it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. To see a few video highlights from the event, check out our Facebook page here. But I’m back with two great interviews for you today… On this episode, I explain why prudent investors love corrections.

You’ll also hear from two amazing guests: First up… Mike Alkin, Editor of Moneyflow Trader. Mike tells us what he’s seeing in the markets (hint: we have different opinions!)... and explains how to profit from a further pullback in stocks. We also get a sneak peak into Mike’s new podcast… (details below). Then I chat with first-time guest, Gianni Kovacevic – author of My Electrician Drives A Porsche. Gianni is one of the leading authorities on electricity analysis. He drove a Tesla across the U.S. to prove the “technology of the future” is here now. You’ll learn why electricity demand is about to skyrocket all over the globe… and Gianni’s favorite way to profit from this global trend… Tune in to listen to these all-star analysts.

As most junior resource investors know, there's been a lot of buzz around this project. But it's been a wild ride for shareholders… Ron and his team have been faced with strong headwinds over the past year, thanks to the EPA... And after a long and overdue settlement, Ron has finally decided to break his silence… On today’s episode, Ron talks about the history of the popular Pebble mine… how his company managed to overcome the EPA dispute… and reveals an exciting new partnership… Good investing, Frank Curzio

There’s “blood in the streets” and nobody, ANYwhere, will say a single good thing about the company.” • Matt [16:15] “Frank, you always talk about 13F’s and how they’re a great source to find stocks. But this information is dated - showing only positions fund managers purchased over the past 3 months. They may not even be in these stocks anymore. Maybe it’s NOT a good idea to follow these fund managers. Thoughts?” • Chad [26:49] As always, thanks to everyone who participated! . You never know, your question may be the one I read on the next podcast! Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 569: Jordan Trimble: Uranium is finally taking off Nov 15, 2017

    For uranium investors, the long wait for a rebound may finally be over… Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. Since Japan’s Fukushima disaster in 2011, uranium producers have battled one of the worst bear markets in the commodity’s history. Amid tough market conditions, uranium has been the only commodity where not a single mine can turn a significant profit. But in a major development announced just last week, producers have finally responded in a BIG way – pushing prices higher for the first time in years. On today’s episode, uranium expert and CEO of Skyharbour Resources, Jordan Trimble, breaks down the magnitude of this announcement – and what it means for the entire uranium market going forward… He also catches listeners up to date on Skyharbour Resources – one of the few remaining uranium exploration companies in the world.

    Ep. 568: Frankly Speaking | A merger arbitrage opportunity in Alterra? Nov 10, 2017

    One of the most manipulative yet completely legal occurrences on Wall Street… A little hate mail… How to play volatile earnings… A merger arbitrage opportunity in Alterra? Questions & Comments: “Nice rant on wednesday. Seems like every week one of my stocks is getting trashed by these short reports. I’m not sure which firms are legit and which ones are the short scammers… hard to know which short sellers to trust when everything seems so manipulated. I’d like to know if you’re in my corner.” • Wade [00:50] “Frank, I decided that listening to your podcast was a waste of time given the amount of time you spend ranting about sports (bashing baseball mostly). I have stopped listening and have turned my attention elsewhere.” • Grant [08:30] “I’ve never seen a more wild earnings season for individual stocks than we’re having over the past few months. A handful of stocks on my watchlist are up or down more than 20% just today! Plus, at an index level - it’s the lowest volatility on record. Something has got to give?” • Erold [13:27] “My question is on Alterra Power (AXY). I’ve been a shareholder since before the reverse split. Now that it’s known it’s going to sell for $8.25 per share (because they’re getting bought out), and it’s currently $7.70 per share - Would it make sense to buy under the sell price before the sell date?” • Jonathan [24:33]


    Ep. 567: Cutting Through the Noise with Chris Mayer Nov 08, 2017

    Chris Mayer, former banking analyst and editor of two popular investment newsletters – Bonner Private Portfolio and Focus – joins us on this week’s Wall Street Unplugged.

Last time Chris was on the show (April, 2017), he revealed five stock ideas. And today, ALL five of those stocks are well into the green – three are up over 20%. Tune in this week to hear what other ideas Chris has in store for us… including a few tips and tricks to avoid the mainstream financial nonsense we’re faced with everyday. Plus, get a sneak peek of his upcoming book, How Do You Know?, which highlights the misguided attitudes that can destroy a portfolio. Good Investing, Frank Curzio P.S. For this week’s Educational Segment [51:58], I break down one of my newest bets in the semiconductor space. For the first time in at least 10 years, this large-cap name is finally ahead of the innovation curve… and it’s still dirt-cheap.


    Ep. 566: Frankly Speaking | Facebook is still a long-term buy Nov 03, 2017

GE’s free-fall… A slice of Michael Alkin’s newsletter… How to figure out your investment timeline Questions & Comments: 1) “I know you’ve been high on Facebook (FB) for a very long time. I bought the stock because of you at $90 and still own it today. They just reported solid earnings and raised guidance... Is it time to take my profits?” - Marty [00:46] 2) “Now that we’ve had one of the best playoffs in history, do you take back all of your negative comments about baseball?” - Joe [10:26] 3) “GE looks like a no-brainer to buy at these levels… but many analysts have warned about volatility and the overall risk of this extended bull market. Am I crazy to think that there can be more downside risk?” - Luke [15:57] 4) “How do we deal with opportunity costs when using your newsletter?” - Eddie [24:33] As always, thanks to everyone who participated! . You never know, your question may be the one I read on the next podcast! Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 565: Cactus Schroeder: Where Oil Prices Are Heading Nov 01, 2017

    This week I sit down with legendary Texas wildcatter and CEO of Chisholm Exploration, Cactus Schroeder. Cactus is one of the smartest men you’ll find in the oil business. For 40 years, he's drilled around the most prominent basins of North America. And he's consulted on or invested in over 1,000 drilling projects. Cactus was featured on Discovery Channel’s Wildcatters – a television series that followed three people searching for oil and gas in areas other than oil fields. He's also credited with finding one of the largest oil-producing wells in the Eagle Ford – which he later sold to Norway’s Statoil for north of $1 billion. If you own any oil stocks, or thinking of jumping back into oil any plays, be sure to tune into this interview first... Cactus tells us where he thinks oil prices are heading... and the risks to consider today when placing your bets in this space. More importantly, he updates listeners on the breakeven prices needed to drill in the Permian, the Bakken, and the Eagle Ford… and why these “strike zone” numbers are vital to oil producers and investors going forward. Good Investing, Frank Curzio P.S. On this week’s Educational Segment we’ll discuss a trade Marin Katusa recommended last week. If you took action, you’d be up 60% in just four trading sessions. It's another example why sometimes – especially during this volatile earnings season – you just have to stick to your guns.

With these stocks at incredibly expensive levels, should be we start looking to short? ...Or will these names continue to move higher (seemingly) forever?” - Brett [09:07] “I’m an entrepreneur like yourself. I just started a new business venture and I wanted to get any wisdom you’re willing to offer on how to grow my business and generate sales...” - Todd [17:55]


    Ep. 563: Trade alongside Marin Katusa with these two bets Oct 25, 2017

He goes by the name of Marin Katusa - Founder and CEO of Katusa Research and one the the most respected deal-makers in the entire global resource sector. On today’s show, not only does he break down the gold market - and where prices of the yellow metal are headed within the next 3 to 6 months… Marin’s going to give us insight on two idea’s he’s personally going “all-in” on.

He’s considered a short-selling expert. On today’s show, we get to know more about Michael… And how he went from mixing paint at Sherwin Williams in his mid-twenties to becoming the right-hand man of one of Wall Street’s greatest hedge fund managers… A man Businessweek once referred to as “the best stock-picker no one has ever heard of.” Michael also reveals some of Wall Street’s hidden truths… And how he unearths the biggest mispricings in the market. Listeners get a hefty sneak-peek at Michael's methodical method of "going short"... how they can turn this system into big profits… And the market Michael's targeting next... Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 560: Frankly Speaking | Update: General Electric Oct 13, 2017

    Why I’m still long on General Electric (despite its recent slump)… Bruno Mars is NOT Michael Jackson… Eagles to the SuperBowl? On today’s episode of Frankly Speaking, I mostly cover General Electric (GE). I’ve received tons of questions and emails after shares reached a new 52-week low last week. So I wanted to give my followers an update. A massive restructuring is currently underway and rumors are spurting in every direction. In addition, JPMorgan is now saying a dividend cut is “likely”… which could push prices even lower. This is a name I’ve been wrong on for the past six months… But, with my ego put aside, I still think GE is an incredible buy at these levels. Here’s my take. As always, thanks to everyone who participated!


    Ep. 559: Junior Mining Expert Jeff Phillips Breaks His Silence Oct 11, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. Today I have an exclusive interview for you with Jeff Phillips, President of Global Market Development. If you haven't heard of Jeff, that's likely because he rarely gives interviews. But he's one of the most trusted names in the resource industry – like frequent guest and close friend, Marin Katusa. After financing over 100 different resource companies, Jeff has developed a unique approach to investing in this highly volatile sector. He’s helped me and my listeners generate a ton of money over the years. And he could do the same for you today... In this 30 minute interview, Jeff reveals… Why today’s resource bear market may finally coming off its bottoms. His current investment thesis for the gold, uranium, and rare-earth metal industries. And the names of four junior miners he believes are “buys” right now... Don't miss what he has to say. Good Investing, Frank Curzio

Here’s my story.”… - John [05:58] “Recent financial crisis data has shown that mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity is highest at business cycle peaks, resulting in bad investments. With today’s M&A numbers returning to levels similar to 2000 and 2007, are you concerned?”… - Tommy [13:49] “Someone convinced my wife that Canadian marijuana stocks are worth a look (Canada is about to legalize marijuana on a federal level, unlike the situation in the U.S.). Can you share your thoughts on the Canadian marijuana industry in general, or anything about their popular cannabis stocks?”... - Tim [24:48] As always, thanks to everyone who participated!


    Ep. 557: Tax Reform's Winners and Losers Oct 04, 2017

    On this week’s show I’m joined by the biggest bear I know on Wall Street – Richard Suttmeier. Rich has been analyzing stocks for over 40 years. He's currently the founder and CEO of Global Market Consultants. He's also a weekly contributor to Forbes and TheStreet.com. Richard is an expert at analyzing what he calls "the balance sheet of the U.S. economy," otherwise known as the FDIC Banking Profile.

For today's Educational Segment [46:45], get your pens ready... We're going to talk about what President Trump's tax reform means for you. And I'll be sharing the names and symbols of at least 30 stocks in this "winners and losers" discussion.

    On today’s show, Founder and CEO of Horowitz and Company - Andrew Horowitz, and I breakdown the recent sentiment shift surrounding the most popular momentum names in the market – Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Google. Otherwise known as "FAANG." Andrew explains how the great “rotation” in these names – from growth to value – may foretell the market’s tone for the remainder of the year… We then talk about how the recent rise in the U.S. dollar will impact the commodity and financial industries going forward. Finally, Andrew shares his favorite market ideas – giving us a few more names to place on our radar... Good Investing, Frank Curzio P.S. Small-cap stocks are experiencing more volatility than at almost any other time I’ve tracked them. We’re talking over 20 years of research… And in this week’s Educational Segment, I’m going to show you how to turn this volatility to your advantage. With this powerful investment approach, you can make massive short-term gains in the next earnings season.


    Ep. 554: Frankly Speaking: The biggest risk in today’s market NOBODY is talking about Sep 22, 2017

    What’s ahead for Curzio Research… The employee/ wage debate… The biggest risk in today’s market NOBODY is talking about… The one FAANG company I’d invest in right now (If I had to choose)... Why baseball stinks “Frank, are you ever going to do what other newsletters have done, and offer one big price for all of your services?” - Kurt [00:50] “I want to get your opinion on the highly contested inflation debate… Also, do you see the fed raising rates over the next six months?” - Maurizio [04:11] “Which is your favorite FAANG stock to buy right now?” - Jennifer [12:27] “I know you hate baseball, but do you think the latest upward trend in home-runs means the sport is making a comeback?” - Joe [16:38] As always, thanks to everyone who participated!

    Ep. 553: Frank Holmes: Why blockchain will be as disruptive as Amazon Sep 20, 2017

    Today we welcome back Frank Holmes, CEO and Chief Investment Officer of U.S. Global Investors. Under his 25-plus years of leadership, U.S. Global Investors has launched several funds, including the first-ever airliner ETF (JETS), and most recently, the U.S.Global Go Gold fund (GOAU). Since its June launch, GOAU has outperformed every major index within the gold industry. In this episode, Frank reveals his unique “moneyball” approach – explaining the quantitative tricks traditional funds are completely ignoring… And he shares the names of the three companies he considers the “safest and least volatile” in the entire mining industry. Then Frank and I talk cryptocurrencies... As Frank explains today, digital currencies and the blockchain aren't just a passing trend. They're a revolution. We’re on the verge of a market disruption the likes of which we haven't seen since the launch of Amazon and Google. Tune in to learn the best way to catch this wave – while you still can...

    A safe cyber-security play… The best way to buy stocks on the TSX (Toronto Stock Exchange)… Another small cap biotech steal “It’s been over a week since the Equifax () data breach and the stock has beaten down by roughly 25%.

    Ep. 551: Amir Adnani: How to Win in Bear Markets Sep 13, 2017

    “There are two certainties when it comes to resource investing…” On today’s episode of Wall Street Unplugged, we unveil a junior miner that's molded its entire business model around these two certainties… and how to profit from them. The first certainty you probably know: The resource market is cyclical. When supply and demand imbalances occur, the resource sector is slow to react. This lengthy lag time creates massive price swings incomparable to other markets. The second certainty, on the other hand, is not so obvious... When bear markets occur, the majors significantly underinvest in new assets. As commodity prices fall into bear markets, the major players in the industry (the multi-billion dollar mining firms) fail to do what they’re typically good at… Buying resources. Instead, these firms go into "protection mode." They stop investing in new projects... cut exploration costs… and primarily maintain their balance sheets. Some, depending on the bite of the bear, even brace for bankruptcy. This phenomena is one of the most overlooked certainties in the industry today. From my experience, only a handful of miners truly take advantage of these certainties… When a bear cycle hits, they pick up fantastic assets for pennies on the dollar. With the help of today's WSU guest and mining expert, Amir Adnani, I'll be breaking down one of these companies. As the price of gold slowly but surely begins to crawl back, insiders have picked up about 25% of the company with their own capital. More importantly, with roughly 19 million ounces of gold in the ground drilled at just $8/ounce, this particular miner is in a league of it’s own. It's one of the most underappreciated gold miners today… And one of the best investment ideas I've ever given my listeners. Good Investing, Frank Curzio P.S. After Amir signs off, we’re jumping into an Educational Segment. Outside of FAANG, the underlying market is becoming dangerously volatile – with numbers I haven’t seen since the credit crisis. For short-term speculators, this segment will tell how to place your next bet… without catching a falling knife.


    Ep. 550: Frankly Speaking: A List of Hurricane Trades For Next Season Sep 08, 2017

    A list of hurricane trades for next season… How to avoid artificial selling… What’s moving gold today… One of my favorite lessons from Jim Cramer… “I’m guilty of holding on to my losers for too long… and cutting my winners short. What’s the best strategy on when to sell?” – James [00:48] “What’s the easiest way for investors to get in early, ahead of everyone else, on short-term events like hurricanes?” – Joe [09:07] “If the brink of war with North Korea isn’t moving gold or silver much… shouldn’t we look elsewhere?” – Todd [17:59] “What’s the best entrance strategy: Taking full positions immediately?… or scaling in?” – Jamison [22:56] As always, thanks to everyone who participated.

    Ep. 549: John Petrides: The Great Misconception of Value Investing Sep 06, 2017

    Today's guest is Managing Director at Point View Wealth Management and one of Wall Street Unplugged’s finest, John Petrides. Wall Street benchmarks and sectors are shaking up amid recent fears of North Korea and our nation's ongoing hurricane misfortunes. And as these two major current events develop, John and I discuss where investors should be playing their cards… In other news, the Russell 1000 growth index (IWF) is up over 17% year to date... while the Russell 1000 value index (IWD) has gained 3% since January. Is it finally time to stop chasing growth? Tune in as John breaks down what it takes to be a true value investor. A stock could be down 30... even 50%, but forget it. As John explains, that doesn’t matter. When it comes to value investing, there’s only one question we must ask ourselves. John then talks Apple. He's one of the few analysts I know that has been dead-right on the stock in recent years. And his analysis couldn’t come at a better time... Apple is set to launch the highly anticipated iPhone 8 in just a couple weeks. John's the type of guest that can bring the conversation in any direction. And today – from geopolitics, oil, and the consumer staples sector to M&A's and mutual funds – he it covers it all. These are conversations you don’t want to miss. Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 548: Frankly Speaking Sep 01, 2017

    Ep. 547: Steve Koomar: This could be Amazon’s next big acquisition Aug 30, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. For many investors, Amazon's Whole Foods acquisition was the death knell for brick and mortar retail… This week, Steve Koomar, former derivative trader at Goldman Sachs and editor of Vigilante Investor, breaks down the acquisition… but explains how retail's downward spiral has created one of the largest disconnects in the market today. This disconnect, Steve says, has opened the gates for private equity firms or companies like Amazon – companies desperately looking to improve earnings – to scoop up exceptional brick and mortars at rock-bottom valuations. He also shares a list of companies that could be the next takeover target… and fantastic opportunities for value investors… In addition, Steve explains why the iron and steel industry is poised for a sharp turnaround... and three "disruptive" tailwinds for U.S. producers going forward. But don’t sign off once Steve leaves. For this week’s Educational Segment [52:10], I'll give you an important oil sector update… and discuss one of the greatest arts of investing: Learning how to adapt. As always, thanks for listening and good investing! Frank Curzio


    Ep. 546: Frankly Speaking Aug 25, 2017

    Ep. 545: Michael Alkin: Your new favorite short strategy... Aug 23, 2017

    “Management teams only tell the best part of their story” -– Michael Alkin Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. This week, one of my favorite short sellers in the business, Michael Alkin, joins the show. While most short analysts will only study company reports (revenues, earnings, or recent guidance), Michael takes the extra step others ignore.... He talks with customers... former employees... suppliers... and distributors. Only then will he decide where the chips fall. And on today's show, Michael tells one of the best stories I've heard on Wall Street. It includes an incompetent company… a costume… and one ballsy analyst. Tune in to learn more about Michael's contrarian approach to short selling… along with two sectors he predicts are about to blow up. Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 544: Frankly Speaking Aug 18, 2017

    Ep. 543: Andrew Horowitz: Interpreting Today's Volatility Aug 16, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. Last week, the S&P dropped the furthest it has since May after Donald Trump's fiery comments about North Korea. Global markets sold off almost immediately, yet only to be met with something we should be all too familiar with… A quick recovery. Over today’s eight-year bull market, there’s been an interesting dynamic that’s played out over and over again, and it has helped keep this rally afloat through some questionable times... But if it’s not Trump that’s pushing the market higher these days… what else is there? It’s questions and times like these that call for a real expert: A guy I can ask anything, who can take a conversation in any direction. From dangerous “buy mode” algo’s, earnings season, and the weakening of the US dollar... to the parabolic climb of bitcoin, and how to protect yourself from today’s recent volatility… Today’s guest and I discuss all four corners of the market.

    Ep. 541: Chris MacIntosh: World Out of Whack Aug 09, 2017

    "Investing is a matter of probabilities... Not how things should be" Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. Today I’m joined by the one-of-a-kind, Chris MacIntosh - Co-Manager of the Asymmetric Opportunities Fund and founder & owner of the popular financial publication, Capitalist Exploits. Chris has a track-record unlike anyone I’ve met. Whether it’s speculating on events like Brexit and Trump’s victory, to predicting Bitcoin’s uprising or the collapse of the South African Rand - Chris has never been afraid to ask the questions people don’t want to. He focuses on macroeconomic trends that contribute to massive market disconnects. He calls it: Exploiting asymmetry in the markets... Tune in as Chris unfolds his theses on the topics of bitcoin, blockchain, private-equity, European bond markets, and one hated energy sector that will be the darling of the next decade. In a world riddled with dangerous thoughts and unsound monetary shenanigans, you’ve come to the right place. Just click here to listen... Good Investing, Frank Curzio

    Ep. 539: Sprott's Natural Resource Symposium: The good news... and the bad Aug 02, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! I just returned home from the 2017 Sprott Natural Resource Symposium in Vancouver… my go-to conference each year. It’s where the most successful junior mining investors and executives gather from around the globe… where I've learned about companies like McEwen Mining, Sandstorm Gold, and Northern Dynasty... and where I get to sit in exclusive closed-door sessions with company insiders. On this week's show, I'm honored to re-introduce the Executive Chairman of, by far, the most promising company of this year’s Symposium. His name is Ivan Bebek. His company is about to embark on one of the largest drilling programs in the junior resource space today. And if they hit… investors could see a 50%-plus pop in shares almost immediately. It’s the type of risk/reward setup that’s too favorable to ignore. That’s the good news… Some of what I witnessed in Vancouver was cringeworthy… the same pump and dump scams I’ve seen too many times. It reminded me why the natural resource industry can be so dangerous for investors. So on this week's Educational Segment, I’ll remind you of the key things to watch out for. Good Investing, Frank Curzio

    Ep. 537: Where the World's Wealthiest Invest Jul 26, 2017

    Imagine walking into a room chock-full of entrepreneurs, major company executives, and visionaries from around the globe… You know them like family. Each individual is a close friend. Every time you get together, personal experiences are shared, lessons are learned, and stories are told. You all have one thing in common: You’re super-rich. Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. Today I welcome first-time guest and Founder and Chairman of the exclusive Tiger 21 investment club -- Michael Sonnenfeldt. Tiger 21 is a peer-to-peer learning network for high net worth individuals. I'm talking about entrepreneurs, executives, and visionaries from around the world with over $10 million in investable assets. Every month, these guys get together to share insider information, talk investments, and create partnerships or joint ventures that can last lifetimes. And on this special episode of Wall Street Unplugged, you're right in the room with them... Michael exposes what’s actually being talked about behind these closed doors… giving us insight into what some of the wealthiest investors on the planet are forecasting for the remainder of 2017. The conversation ranges from venture capital projects to real estate to public and private equities. More specifically, we learn about Tiger 21’s holistic approach to assessing risks... the hidden bubble behind every hedge fund… and the average investor's biggest risk going forward (and it has nothing to do with geopolitics, Trump, or a market at all-time highs). As I always say – there’s nothing more powerful than real-time, trustworthy information. And here it is, first-hand, from the top 1% of today’s global investors…

    Ep. 535: Chris Versace: 3 Reasons a Major Pullback is Approaching Jul 19, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. Today I introduce first-time guest, Chief Investment Officer, and Co-Founder of Tematica Research - Chris Versace. Chris is a weekly contributor for Business Insider, Forbes, and The Street.com. He's also the host of his own financial podcast, Cocktail Investing. Simply put, and like myself, the guy’s a stock market junkie. But his “thematic” approach is something totally different. He call’s it “the death of sector investing…” And it might even be ahead of it’s time. Theme by theme, Chris breaks down the market as a whole… discussing recently released economic data, what he calls the "Trump Slump," and how investors should prepare for the upcoming Q2 earnings season. Chris also unveils two “dividend dynamos”... and two small-cap companies listeners MUST add to their watchlist… Good Investing, Frank Curzio P.S. After Chris leaves us, keep listening for this week’s Educational Segment [], where I explain how to avoid “value traps" that even the best investors fall into -- when companies look cheap, but in reality, they’re far from it.

    Ep. 533: Jonathan Awde: Gold at an Inflection Point Jul 12, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! This week, Jonathan Awde joins me on the show. Jonathan, CEO and President of Gold Standard Ventures (NYSE:GSV), gives us an inside look at what’s exactly taking place in today’s dispirited gold sector. Whether its inflation, geopolitical risks, or weakness in the dollar... As of recent, investors are having a difficult time finding gold’s next growth catalyst… Jonathan, nonetheless, sheds lights on a much clearer picture. In part to recently released economic data, he explains why the sector may finally be reaching the tipping point we’ve all been patiently waiting for. Jonathan then talks about Gold Standard Ventures. Despite flatlining prices, the company is in the midst of its “largest drilling project” to date. Tune in as Jonathan catches listeners up to speed… breaking down the company’s recent acquisitions, drilling results, and how the company is quietly positioning itself for gold’s inevitable bounce-back. Good Investing, Frank Curzio PS - Don’t leave when Jonathan signs-off. On this week’s Educational Segment, I talk about a strategy I use to get my biggest, yet safest returns… a methodology, no matter how many times I mention it, no one ever uses. Here we go again…


    Ep. 532: Frankly Speaking Jul 07, 2017

    Ep. 531: John Petrides: The Next Retail Takeover Jul 05, 2017

    Welcome to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. He's back… Managing Director at Point View Wealth Management and Wall Street Unplugged all-time favorite, John Petrides, joins the show once again. And apart from our quarterly routine, jumping from one sector to another, today we're turning all of our focus on one. Just last week, a surprisingly big acquisition took place in the retail sector; Private equity firm Sycamore bought out Staples for $10.25 per share… in a deal valued close to $7 billion. Shares of Staples, which have been on a steady decline for the past decade, finally found some life - after shares surged more than 8% in late session trading. All of which, has got John thinking... Helped along by today’s low interest rate environment, on top of a severely depressed, cheap, and hated retail sector… John’s prediction is that we’re still in the early innings of these takeover deals. On today’s show, we each give away our best guesses at which retailer is next. Including one big-box that just might be Jeff Bezos’s next lunch. You heard it here first. Good Investing, Frank Curzio

    Ep. 529: Michael Alkin: The Art of Short Selling Jun 28, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. It may look like you can't miss by going short now… Most stocks are at all-time highs… we’re seeing new records almost every week... and at this point, even perma-bulls are stuttering. The inevitable is just around the corner, right? For the past eight months short-sellers have had it increasingly rough. Just take a look at the charts. It’s obvious. Minor market pullbacks have been met with even bigger buying opportunities. And earnings along with valuations today continue to surge. Expectations… well, they’re still bullish. Simply put, if you want to short in today’s game, investors have to be more methodical than ever before. Which leads me to today’s guest - short-selling expert, Michael Alkin. Michael is a former hedge fund analyst, portfolio manager and is currently the Editor & Founder of The Stock Catalyst Report. As Michael points out, even in today’s market, some expectations are far from reality. With all the day-to-day noise we hear surrounding Wall Street, Michael breaks down some alarming, yet subtle changes particular companies are making that are going completely unnoticed… Leaving short-sellers, for those that are still alive, with a surprisingly exciting opportunity. The only hard part is -- where do you look? Tune in as Michael unveils his favorite short-selling methodology… showing listeners exactly where to find these opportunities and the all the risks that come with it. On the flip side, Michael brings up a sector he’s going “all-in” on. Frequent Wall Street Unplugged listeners have heard the same thesis over and over again from some of the smartest people in the industry. However, to end the episode, Michael brings up two catalysts listeners have yet to hear. “In my 20-plus years of my career, this is the best risk/reward ratio on the long-side I’ve ever seen.” Good Investing, Frank Curzio

    Ep. 527: Frank Holmes: The "Moneyball" Gold Approach Jun 21, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. This week I bring back CEO and Chief Investment Officer of U.S. Global Investors - Frank Holmes. On the show, Frank introduces listeners to yet another ETF he plans on launching at the end of this month. The timing couldn't of been better... Especially when you consider, as we'll talk about, the recent rebalancing of the GDXJ - a very popular junior mining Exchange Traded Fund that has recently caused a seismic shock through out the mining sector. Just like Frank's first ETF (NYSE: JETS), which was introduced two years ago and covers the airliner industry, this fund is being launched in the middle of an out-of-favor down cycle... Leaving the public a chance to invest in a basket of stocks with very limited down-side risk. Tune in as Frank breaks down US Global's latest venture... and how his smart data, "moneyball" approach can be an industry game-changer. Good Investing, Frank Curzio

    Ep. 525: Edward Karr: What’s really moving Bitcoin? Jun 14, 2017

    Everyone’s talking about Bitcoin. For good reason too… If you’d bought $1,000 of Bitcoin just 7 years ago, you’d be worth $35 million right now. I’ve received hundreds of emails on the topic. “How high can it go?… Is this gold’s replacement?… Should I buy Bitcoin or another cryptocurrency?” Bitcoin has been around less than a decade – leaving your average investor, gold-bugs, and even government regulators with the same question… “What’s really moving Bitcoin?” So on today’s show, we’re taking a look under the hood of this intriguing, yet highly speculative digital currency… I introduce Wall Street Unplugged listeners to CNBC contributor and Bitcoin expert, Edward Karr. From the basics of Bitcoin to its complexities, like the blockchain, mathematical law, and the biggest risk for investors going forward – Ed covers everything you need to know. More specifically, he explains why demand is now stronger than ever… and why recent volumes are proving to be a massive hedge against potential macroeconomic events. If you’re interested in this megatrend, don’t miss Ed’s unbiased and informative take.


    Ep. 524: Frankly Speaking: Industry on Fire - Video Games Jun 09, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking. If you’re interested in buying some video game stocks but don’t understand the differences between the U.S-based big three; Activision Blizzard (ATVI), Electronic Arts (EA), and Take-Two Interactive (TTWO)... Today’s show is right up your alley. In comparison to movies, TV studios, and other corners of the entertainment industry, no other sector has seen this much success in recent quarters. In fact, video game stocks have been in an all-out frenzy... Revenues are growing… share prices are reaching new all-time highs almost every week… and the combined market-cap of these companies now reach over $80 billion. Over the last two years alone, shares of Take-Two have nearly tripled, Activision has more than doubled, and EA is up over 80%. Unlike, let’s say, just five years ago… Video game companies no longer have to wait till Christmas time to make their profits. Those days are over. Today, digital revenues now come from an array of sources like in-game advertising, downloadable map-packs, full-game downloads, subscriptions… along with the consumer's ability to purchase virtual cars, clothes, and guns with real dollars - pushing company valuations even higher. Let’s not forget to mention their impact on the world of mobile gaming... Now although I wouldn’t be going all-in at these levels, on today’s show, I jump into the nitty-gritty. And give away my favorite bet out of the three. Switching gears, I turn my focus to a sector that is showing no signs of slowing down. It’s sort of like the video game industry with only more potential. Like four times the potential. I’m calling out what some investors in this sector are failing to do: Looking at the bottom-line numbers and fundamentals… NOT only the stock price. (Yes, some are expensive) Investing in future growth catalysts… NOT only in momentum (cough, cough, Nvidia). The truth is, there are still several companies out there climbing at only 15x forward earnings… in a sector that’s still very much in its infancy.

    Ep. 523: Andrew Horowitz: Bull Market Euphoria Jun 07, 2017

    Longtime friend, Andrew Horowitz, and I were talking on the phone the other day… Apart from catching up as close friends, we dove into some interesting talks about today's economy… I mean, how could we not? Oil and financials are rolling over, wage growth & home-sales are weakening, auto sales are down, commercial real-estate… yikes. And, on the other hand, you have only a select group of stocks (FANG) that’s really pushing this market… all while the “investor fear gauge” known as the VIX is sitting below 10. Basically, we're seeing correlations we've never seen before... intertwined with market highs that have never been reached. Andrew is calling today's market "terribly euphoric." And although I love proving him wrong, with that statement, I couldn't agree more. So on this week’s episode, as two guys sitting at a bar over some beers would do - we're taking this conversation in every direction. No agenda.. No bullish or bearish anything… Instead, we're taking a step back. And looking at the market as a whole - analyzing the recent “hard” economic data, earnings, politics, bitcoin, and even fishing. Conversations like this is what my podcast is all about. Just click here to listen… As always, thanks for tuning in and good investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 522: Frankly Speaking: Finding the next "Nuts & Bolts" Company Jun 02, 2017

    “There’s only about one-hundred thousand of them…” he said. At the time, I was standing in the middle of what’s known as the largest building in the world - Boeing’s airplane-assembly facility in Everett, Washington. I was extremely interested in these planes, to say the least... The demand for Boeing’s new and revolutionary-efficient 737 is off the charts. It’s the company’s fastest selling jetliner in its 100 plus years of existence. The most recent model sells for just north of $119.2 million. And I was standing directly under the wing of one. In my 20 plus year career of investing, visiting different sites and projects all around the world, nothing was more intriguing to me than this one. Dan Schull, the Sales Director at Boeing, and probably one of the most important figures in the $6 trillion aerospace and defense industry, was personally guiding me (along with a small group of investors) on a private tour of the world-class property. Now at this point in the story, most would assume I am about to dive into why Boeing might be a top-notch investment. After-all, the aerospace industry is in a supreme bull-market as we speak… But that’s not why I’m here. What caught my attention… and what today’s show is all about is that “100,000” number. It was music to my ears when Dan mentioned it. That’s the number of parts it takes to build each one of Boeing’s next-generation 737 MAX aircrafts. You see, those 100,000 parts yield over 100 different publicly-traded companies. Companies I personally like to call “Nuts & Bolts” stocks. It’s something my Curzio Venture Opportunities subscribers are all too familiar with. In fact, in recent months I provided subscribers with two recommendations surrounding what I saw firsthand, on that single day. But this is still a strategy common investors constantly overlook. And it’s simply where the better opportunities are. Opportunities that have a much higher ceiling than their contracting partners that EVERYONE already knows about - companies like Apple, Microsoft, or Boeing. The strategy I unfold today focuses on the companies that actually leech onto these household names. As the larger companies (like Boeing) gain popularity on the street, pushing the stock price higher, these behind-the-scenes “nuts & bolts” companies take part in the ride up as well. And because of their small size, share prices can often explode in a matter of 24 months. When industry leaders produce their widely known products, (Apple iPhones, Boeing 737 airplanes, Amazon’s Alexa) they don’t actually make all the parts that go into them. Instead, they outsource the majority of the pieces, often coming from smaller companies. But unlike these smaller companies, industry giants rarely ever see massive short-term gains, even in bull-markets… And rarely ever get bought out either. Because, well, they’re industry leaders. The “nuts & bolts” companies are where the real margins are. And to top it off, these opportunities fly completely under-the-radar in mainstream media - giving us the advantage. Good Investing, Frank Curzio Special thanks to James, Evan, and Ryan. Keep the questions coming at frank@curzioresearch with “Frankly Speaking” in the email subject line. Other topics talked about: Should we really be waiting for a market pullback?... Why it’s time to sell your FANG stocks… and one car-rental company that could pop 20% within 6 months from now.


    Ep. 521: Take Your Profits on This Tech Darling May 31, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. This week I’m again joined by the one and only market veteran – Richard Suttmeier. Rich has been analyzing stocks for over 40 years, is a weekly contributor for Forbes and TheStreet.com, and is the founder and CEO of Global Market Consultants. As my frequent listeners know, Rich is probably the biggest permabear I invite on the show. Our opinions almost always contradict... Yet for this reason, he is an asset for all my investment theses… Why? Rich has a knack for uncovering data no else seems to mention. He calls it "the balance sheet of the U.S. economy," otherwise known as the FDIC Banking Profile. And although he uses this overlooked data to contest nearly everything I put on the table... It always helps to hear the otherside. If you own a stock, or a have any interest in a certain sector... you don't want to talk to the hundreds of people that love it. Instead, you want to hear from that one guy who hates it. And Rich is that guy. On today's show he brings the heat - focusing on the downside risks of oil, semiconductors, utilities, housing markets, and his favorite, the financial industry. If you have bets on any of these sectors, let Rich challenge your perspective. It won't hurt. Then, for today's Educational Segment [43:13], I’m breaking down a stock that the whole world’s in love with right now. It’s a global tech “darling” and is part of a select group of stocks that essentially drives the entire market, also known as FANG. But trading at 23 times earnings, after coming off four straight quarters of positive earnings estimates, I make the case for why it’s time to cash in… and take profits any off the table. Recent momentum has carried on just too far. Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 520: Frankly Speaking: Why Big Box Retailers are NOT Dead May 26, 2017

    Happy Memorial Day Weekend! Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking. Today I’m packing my bags and heading to middle state, Nevada. A brand-new mining company is coming together… coming from a management team Wall Street Unplugged listeners are all too familiar with. There’s no IPO yet… Not even a symbol… And fortunately, before word spreads any further, I’ve been invited to check out this developing project. This weekend. Firsthand. It’s an opportunity I couldn’t pass up. And from the looks of it right now, this could potentially be one of the best mining companies I’ll ever recommend. Moving on, I then cover a company that is now on the street’s center stage - Best Buy (BBY). Last week, the electronic retailer posted better-than-expected earnings results from top to bottom. This includes a reported 60 cents Earnings Per Share versus last year’s 44 cents per share. Digital sales grew more than 22%... And more important, comparable same-store sales rose 1.6% overall versus an expected decline. The stock jumped nearly 20% this week from the news… and is seemingly beginning to show signs of having the right formula to go up against Amazon. Who’s saying big box retailers are dead? Tune in to hear out my entry point strategy. Special Thanks to Micha, Ron, and Don for all the questions. Keep em’ coming at Frank@CurzioResearch.com Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 519: Jared Dillian Unplugged May 24, 2017

    “You see, this is where a lot of investors get confused...” As today’s first-time guest explains… “The goal in trading isn’t to be right” he says. The goal of investing lies far beyond that… Well, not really. It’s actually pretty simple. All us investors are here for one thing and one thing only - Money. And oddly enough, as most successful investors know, you don’t necessarily have to be right in order to make money. In some instances, betting against your own will, in trades you don’t even believe in, can give you returns beyond belief. Literally. Which leads me to today’s market... Currently we’re standing in a relentless, but confusing, bull market. Stocks are expensive and continue to push to record highs… Trump’s pro-growth initiatives are flatlining… and potential bubbles are beginning to steer investors south. Is there still money to be made here? Enter today’s guest, Jared Dillian. Jared is the editor of the Daily Dirtnap, and author of the 10th Man newsletter. Before Jared started writing in 2008, he worked for the Wall Street giant Lehman Brothers - first as an index arbitrage trader and then as head of the ETF trading desk. Jared's "macro" investment methodologies brings Wall Street Unplugged listeners a whole new perspective. Rather than stressing too much on the technicals or fundamentals, Jared mainly focuses on two things: Sentiment & Psychology. In other words, Jared’s known as a behavioral economics expert. “I’m skeptical of everything I read and hear.” And quite frankly, there’s no reason we shouldn’t be either. The fact is, 90% of investors make poor and irrational investment decisions. Market sentiment often swings aggressively… and unfocused, under-the-radar opportunities are left on the table. It’s one of the perks of investing with a contrarian mentality. All thanks to the combination of irrational investment decisions and conventional economics, bear or bull market, these hidden opportunities appear constantly. And on today’s show, Jared shares a few of them... Tune in as he gives listeners his ideas around Bitcoin, the next potential bubble, and his favorite sector going forward for the year 2017. More important, Jared explains to listeners one of the most underpriced investments to make right now. And the timing of this couldn’t be better. Then, for today’s Educational Segment, I’ll be breaking down a batch of stocks that go by the name of the “Dividend Aristocrats.” These are elite dividend paying S&P 500 companies who have managed to increase their annual dividend for the past 25 years consecutively. Some might sound familiar, while others, you’ve never heard of. The only problem is - nearly all of them have prices that have run up tremendously. And choosing one to invest in is a lot harder than it looks. Join me as I reveal my #1 buy and hold long-term stock from this exclusive list of companies. Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 518: Frankly Speaking: Why Alibaba (BABA) is no longer a momentum stock May 19, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking. This week's breakdown is starting with Alibaba (BABA). Originally, the Chinese e-commerce company received loads of skepticism in regards to their deliverability and figures. Basically, analysts didn't believe the financials. But that was two years ago... Recently, the stock has been delivering some solid numbers that you can't ignore. The company is seeing its highest growth in revenues since their IPO... mobile use is stretching past 500 million monthly users... and not mention, Chinese e-commerce is skyrocketing. This company is no longer a momentum play. And to start off today's stream of Q&A's, I explain why. Switching gears, I then turn my focus to General Electric (GE). I completely understand the concerns for the short-term investors... The stock has sold off a bit... Deutsche Bank recently placed a sell rating on the stock... and cash concerns continue to push analysts away. But as I explain, there are still plenty of over-looked, long-term catalysts. Other topics talked about: BlackBird Energy's (BBI.V) recent drilling troubles, and just a little more politics. No personal hard feelings here. My concerns have very much to do with the financial markets. Special thanks to Larry, Howard, Faye, John, and Derek for all the questions. Keep em' coming at Frank@curzioresearch.com Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 517: Marin Katusa: Why There's More Pain Ahead for Junior Miners May 17, 2017

    Welcome to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. Marin is back! For those unfamiliar, Marin Katusa, the founder of Katusa Research, is probably the most connected guy in the resource industry. As always, he comes on the show to give listeners his insight and full updates in the gold, uranium, and energy industries. Coming from a guy who is usually bullish when it comes to junior miners… Today, Marin is taking a completely different stance. You heard that right. Marin, who focuses 100% of his time on the resource sector, is giving investors a fair warning. “A tsunami of selling is coming to the junior mining sector.” And oddly enough, it has nothing to do with the companies themselves. The rising issue for junior miners lies behind a major rebalancing of a popular Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) known as the VanEck Junior Gold Miner (symbol GDXJ). Marin is here to give you all the details of this developing story… and explain why this already weak sector will get even worse. In a matter of weeks, Marin expects these small-cap stocks can plummet as far 25%-50%. However, as Marin explains, this news will lead to a chain reaction that is “music to our ears…” “You want to buy when others are forced to sell,” he says. This will be one of those rare market opportunities where investors can buy some of the world’s most valuable junior gold companies for pennies on the dollar. Marin and I then talk about the one and only Northern Dynasty (NAK). Marin’s been closely studying this stock for over two years now. In fact, he’s the one who initially introduced me to it when the stock was at only 40 cents. Now that the long awaited EPA agreement with the company has finally been settled, to end the episode, Marin shares with us NAK’s biggest catalyst going forward. Let’s not forget: We’re talking about the world’s largest undeveloped copper and gold mine here. It’s just the beginning. Also, don’t sign off when Marin leaves… 99% of investors, even Marin, are bearish when it comes to the oil and gas industry. But not me. On this week’s Educational Segment, I explain why we should all be aggressively buying in the sector before OPEC comes out with another game-changing announcement. Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 516: Frankly Speaking: When to Book Your Profits May 12, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking. Whenever I'm up on a stock, there always comes a time and place to take my profits off the table... And unlike how we protect ourselves on the downside by the use of stop-loss orders... there is really no set formula when it comes to booking profits. The answer remains in your initial investment thesis. And to start off today's episode, I explain exactly what I mean. Moving on... I then discuss a stock that is now on my radar, only thanks to you - my readers who question-in. When I first looked at the stock, which is currently sitting at 7 cents, I laughed... But it turns out this company makes a very interesting play. It has all the factors I like: The company has key projects under great jurisdictions... they have great investors and parters... and more important, they have an excellent management team in place. In fact, the company's most recent addition to their board of directors has come from one of the most successful publicly traded agriculture companies in the world - Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan (POT). Switching gears, I then break down the oil & gas industry as a whole. OPEC is expected to extend cuts, more production will be coming offline, and investor sentiment continues to remain negative. But that doesn't mean there isn't buying opportunities... And finally, although I might be stepping over my boundaries, to end today's episode, I talk a little bit of politics. Excuse me for my rant... but I just had to say it. Special thanks to Wade, Phil, Dominic, and Jesse. Keep the questions coming! Thanks for tuning it and good investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 515: Amir Adnani & Steve Koomar: A Classic Contrarian Opportunity May 10, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! Today I’m joined by both Amir Adnani - CEO of Uranium Energy Corp (UEC) & Chairman of GoldMining Inc. (GOLD.V). And also, Steve Koomar - former derivative trader at Goldman Sachs and editor of the Vigilante Investor newsletter. That’s right, instead of having only one guest join me, today I’ll be picking the minds of two. And starting with Amir, as he puts it, “It’s time for our quarterly update.” In recent months, Gold Mining Inc. has quietly made a few significant acquisitions including one as recent as this morning. Nothing surprising here. Amir and his team continue to add to the thesis they’ve been focused on all along - buying assets at a fraction of their value. And on today’s show, Amir breaks down each of these new entry points. He calls it “creating value with certainty.” As the gold sector is in the midst of another unfavorable market downturn, this exactly what investors want to see. Poised for a market rebound, GoldMining is adding ounces in the ground with consolidations that now stretch from Brazil and Columbia to Alaska and Northern Canada. We then turn our focus to Uranium… As many of you know, this is a sector that I continue to pound the table on. The price of Uranium is finally coming off it’s 12-years lows… nuclear power plants are being built at a record pace… Japanese reactors are coming online again… and the new US administration is steering further away from renewables. Fundamentally, every piece of the puzzle is coming in place for a market turnaround. But from an individual standpoint, Amir’s Uranium Energy Corp. is facing a catalyst much more unique. This is the same catalyst that pushed the stock up hundreds of percent last time it occurred. And there’s a “very good chance” it can happen again here within the next couple of weeks. Be sure to tune in before Steve signs on as Amir goes over this potentially game-changing announcement. Moving on, Steve Koomar and I then discuss arguably the most hated industry in the markets today - Oil & Gas. Like myself, Steve thinks as the classic contrarian. And due to developing geopolitical pressures, Steve explains why the oil and gas market may see a huge boost in prices. And finally, to wrap things up, Steve then uncovers his favorite foreign market to invest in. It’s a market that has gone up 60% in the past 12 months alone. And for first time in nearly 2 decades, the country’s political landscape is shifting towards pro-business initiatives. As Steve explains, there’s a “nice-long runway” ahead for this country that’s finally beginning to develop its natural resources. You see, everything covered on today’s show falls under one clear theme: How to master the resource market’s cyclicality. If you plan to invest in any of the natural resources we cover today like gold, oil, and uranium…. this interview is a must listen. Because like any cyclical market, betting on these recommendations early, at these depressed levels can yield life-changing results for those willing to wait. Be sure to get your notepads ready… Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 514: Frankly Speaking: A Closer Look at IBM & NAK May 05, 2017

    The questions are pouring in on IBM and Northern Dynasty (NAK)… I’ve been bullish on each of these stocks in recent months. But after this week’s news, I have even more reason to add to my case. On today’s show we start with IBM... Warren Buffett just announced he sold off one-third of his position in the company, stating he “underestimated how much competition is in the space.” And later on said that he has revalued the stock “somewhat downward.” It’s one of the very few investment choices Warren Buffett has made that hasn’t gone exactly as planned. The stock price is down nearly 30% since Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway invested close to $11 Billion back in 2011. And today, as all eyes are still on Buffett, IBM shares have pulled back even further. But as I explain on the show, I’m taking a completely different stance… and explain why there’s still plenty of room for IBM to grow at these levels. Let’s not forget, this is not a momentum stock trading at insane valuations with no dividend… We’re talking a durable company trading at just 12X earnings. And is paying a 4% dividend yield which is more than double of what the average company in the S&P 500 pays. Moving on, I then discuss the recent news surrounding NAK and the infamous EPA. A settlement is expected to take place in less than one week. And from the looks of it, each party seems to be on common grounds. Tune in as I explain why the world’s largest undeveloped copper and gold mine should be everyone’s radar in the next couple of days. Other topics talked about: Sandstorm Gold’s (SAND) recent merger… The current state of oil & gas… and why America needs deregulation before tax and healthcare reforms.


    Ep. 513: Tim Sykes: The only way to trade penny stocks... May 03, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! Today I’m breaking all the rules… Just last week I talked about the benefits of compounding wealth… how long-term value investing is the safest, and smartest strategy for anyone betting in the markets. Even my new newsletter, Curzio Research Advisory, has stock recommendations based off favorable trends for the next 5, 10 years, and beyond… Today’s guest however is someone that takes a completely different angle… His name is Tim Sykes. Everyone has their own strengths. For example, Chris Mayer is a legend at picking international stocks. My other frequent guest, Marin Katusa, is a resource stock sniper. I personally have a knack for picking junior miners and small-cap biotech stocks. And then there’s Tim... Tim is a financial activist, educator, and is most famously known for his success at day trading penny stocks. He focuses on, no doubt, the most speculative and riskiest investments in the market today… yet has found massive success doing it. He’s the only penny stock expert I know. And on today’s show, he’s giving away all of his secrets. And shows listeners exactly how he takes advantage of the market’s hidden inefficiencies. Now before we get into the technicals, I’ll start with the easy stuff… Penny stocks are far from normal stocks. Some are not even listed on major exchanges… New investors often see these stocks with low prices and think they’re bargains. But what they don’t understand is that the chances of seeing positive returns are highly unlikely. You’re more likely to lose money. Here’s the truth: About 97% of penny stocks are awful companies or, flat-out, horrible investment choices. In my opinion, there are only 3 ways to actually make money on penny stocks. The first, is finding something I call a “revamp company.” Every once in a while a company will go bankrupt, maybe get bought out, and restructure their business models entirely. And at some point in that arch of a story, investors can get in at an huge discount. Again, this is an extremely rare occurrence… and takes a lot patience. Secondly, investors get lucky. They buy a stock for cents on a dollar, wait until they get lucky, and sell. It’s that simple. And then there’s Tim’s method - buying and selling off something called “pump and dumps.” And surprisingly, it’s consistent. You’re not diving into any profits, revenues, margins… None of that. Why? Because penny stock don’t have any. Instead, Tim advises listeners to just look at only two things: “Volume and price-action.” “...Who were today’s highest percent gainers and losers… and why?” Of course, as Tim explains on the show, there are a couple strict guidelines to follow. But more important, these “pump and dump” schemes happen more than you’d think. As an avid investors, Tim and I have seen it all… Promotions, people who get paid to recommend stocks, targeted short-sellers, etc. The list goes on. Some of the biggest scams I’ve ever seen derive from pump and dump initiatives. And it’s nice to finally bring someone on the show that knows how to benefit from them. Yet only from the outside looking in. Again, this strategy is not for everyone… But if you can take it one step at a time, play by these specific rules, and bet on the right information... you can turn thousands into millions in a matter of days. Whether you play the upside or the downside, here's the only real way investors can money in this highly speculative market.


    Ep. 512: Frankly Speaking: A list of Large-Cap Value Stocks Apr 28, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking! Today I begin the show by giving away a list of large-cap, well-managed, and durable companies. I'm talking about proven companies that have been around for decades… and the ones that have a history of increasing their dividend annually. More important, some of the stocks I uncover today are at value prices. Although some might be underperforming, buying them at current levels can prove to be monumental in the long-run. Again, these are stocks that investors can hold onto forever. Switching gears, I answer a question on stop-loss orders. This particular question asks what the difference is between "Trailing stop-loss percentages" and "Trailing stop-limit percentages?" My answer: It doesn't matter! Today, I explain the importance of "handing you hand." And my favorite third-party tool that doesn't show the market your every move. Then, to end the episode, I'm taking another stock and looking under the hood. It’s a stock that might seem favorable from a glance... but today I point out all the negatives, giving as much analysis as I can. It's why I'm here. Special thanks to Larry, Jose, Chris, Mark, and Jack for all the great questions. Keep ‘em coming at frank@curzioresearch.com


    Ep. 511: BlackBird Energy: Driving Innovation Apr 26, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. This week I welcome back Garth Braun, Chairman & CEO of BlackBird Energy (BBI.V). Last time Garth was on the show he introduced listeners to one of the finest oil patches in North America - Canada’s Montney Formation. This liquid-rich shale area is now home to some of largest players in the industry - companies like Encana, Apache, Sinopec, and Shell. It’s Canada’s next big energy bet. And Blackbird Energy, the small-cap exploration and development company, was one of the first to discover it. So to start off the episode, Garth catches listeners up to date. He begins by breaking down Blackbird’s recent major capital raise… and how the company has added even more land into the Montney. Moving on, we then talk about the sector as a whole. As the “oil supply glut” continues to haunt investors across the industry, not to mention the increase of drilling costs overtime… companies like BlackBird Energy have been forced to innovate and adapt to current market conditions. And this is what makes Garth’s company so unique. Blackbird has implemented and acquired a 10% stake in Stage Completions - a leading edge optimization technology that reduces drill times, increases tonnage, and cuts costs practically in half. Meaning, this is a company that can remain profitable with prices as low as $30/barrel. And in my 20+ years of research, I’ve only seen a few cases where a company has that ability. If you’re invested in some of these huge producers that can only make profits on $50, $60 oil prices, it’s time to take another look. Blackbird Energy is trading at roughly the same levels as it was last time Garth was on the show. And although that was only 3 months ago, so much within the company has changed... For one, they’ve added more onto the Montney, they have increased reserves by more than 1,000%, and they have just placed over $80M into the bank. More importantly, Garth has managed to do all of this with zero debt, yet the stock is still priced under $1. To end the episode, Garth uncovers what investors can expect in the next 6 to 12 months… along with the company’s ambitious long-term growth plans. Although this stock might currently pose as too aggressive for some investors, on today’s episode, you won’t leave empty handed. Be sure to tune in as there is a ton of valuable information and insight on today's oil and liquids industry. Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 510: Frankly Speaking: Another Market Disconnect Apr 22, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking! We're officially in a stock picker's market. The gold and junior mining sectors are not what they were two years ago. You used to be able to just take a dart, throw it, and be up 200% - 300%... But market dynamics have shifted. These are sectors that have recovered significantly since record-level lows. And now that the market has gone up, extra homework on the individual companies is a must. To begin today's show, I explain exactly what investors need to look for in these risky markets... and how to tell if their flagship mining projects are worth betting on. Switching gears... I then talk about the difference between American and Canadian stock exchanges... and why I always push listeners away from the OTC. Many of my stock recommendations fall under Canadian listed exchanges. And as I explain on the show... the more volume, the safer the exchange. Then, to end the episode, I share with listeners one of the biggest market disconnects today. This is a popular stock that has recently come down 8, 9 points and is currently sitting at a bargain price. Don't bet against Warren Buffett here. This particular company is spending a lot of money in all the right growth markets. Your'e getting paid to wait. Other topics talked about: An updated outlook of a stock I recommended 6 years ago - Steel Dynamics (STLD)...A break down on how private-placement offerings work... And an update on Amir Adnani's GoldMining (GOLD) Special thanks to Luke, Paul, Jared, Daniel, and Michael for all the great questions. Keep em coming!


    Ep. 509: Chris Mayer's Favorite Country to Invest in Today Apr 19, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged. My guest this week is Chris Mayer, 20-year plus market veteran and editor of the Bonner Private Portfolio & Focus newsletter. Chris is constantly traveling the world to find unique investment opportunities. He’s like the Anthony Bourdain of finance. Every time Chris is on the podcast, he provides listeners with ideas that are completely off-the-radar. These are stocks most investors have never heard of... in markets most investors steer away from. Join me as he breaks down his hidden stock ideas, the banking sector, and his favorite emerging market to invest in right now - India. Since the election of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2014, the country has experienced a significant economic shift. Modi has set about cutting taxes, reducing regulation, addressing banking issues… all while controlling inflation. Chris is calling him “Reagan 2.0.” And the way Chris tells it, plenty of investment opportunities are slowly opening up. Chris then shares his personal experiences with billionaire and Agora founder Bill Bonner. In the mix of it all, Chris reveals his proprietary C.O.D.E system. This is an investment strategy he uses to outperform the S&P 500 year after year. As Chris explains, “there are lots of different ways for investors to get up the mountain…” But there’s only one key characteristic behind every ‘100 bagger.’ Plus, for this week's Educational Segment, I talk about something we are conditioned to avoid at ALL cost… Yet it’s something that is widely misunderstood. It's considered a "red flag" in every financial textbook and by analysts everywhere... But in reality, these are opportunities that can lead to returns beyond belief. As always, thanks for listening and good investing!


    Ep. 508: Frankly Speaking: NAK's next step Apr 14, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking! Today I talk about something my subscribers will get very familiar with... Stop-loss orders. This is an investment strategy I will use and strongly recommend for every stock pick in the portfolio. But as you might notice, my recommended stop-loss percentages often vary. Depending on the size of the stock and other technicals, the formula switches. And this is extremely important for protection purposes. Today I explain why. Moving on... I then talk about a stock that I've been getting tons of emails on - Northern Dynasty (NAK). Just last week the state of Alaska came out with game-changing news surrounding NAK's land-permit. The stock rose 34.1% in one trading day. This is a huge slap in the face for the infamous short-seller Kerrisdale Capital. And I'll explain why. But we cannot forget... Northern Dynasty still has their biggest hurdle ahead. Join me this week as I break-down the recent news, what it means for the company, and how I think investors should react. Other topics talked about: Advice for any entrepreneurs, a perfect example of compounding your investments, and how to get your feet on the ground in the world of finance. Also, once again... And I'll never stop saying it... Thank you to all of my listeners for joining me on my newest venture - Curzio Research Advisory. It's been a successful launch. And I'm already looking towards next months pick! Special thanks to Brett, Jose, Douglas, and John for all the great questions. Keep them coming! Just email me at Frank@CurzioResearch.com Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 507: Another Gold Stock Ready to Rebound Apr 12, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! After a crazy week and the successful launch of my brand-new newsletter, Curzio Research Advisory… it’s time to get back to business. On this week’s show I’m jumping right back into my favorite sector, junior mining. Today I welcome back a guest that has made listeners a lot of money over the years… He is the co-founder & CEO of Gold Standard Ventures (NYSE: GSV), Jonathan Awde. The first time Jonathan was on the show, his exploration company, Gold Standard Ventures, was under 40 cents. Today, the company is over $2.00 per share. To start off the interview, Jonathan catches listeners up to date… breaking down their recent game-changing acquisitions. Including a 21,000 acre acquisition which increases their holdings at the south end of Nevada’s Carlin Trend by 66%. Gold Standard Ventures now holds the second largest contiguous land package on Nevada’s Carlin Trend. It’s known as one of the most “prolific” gold producing areas in the world. But this isn’t the best part. For such a small exploration company, Gold Standard Ventures has been building an extremely strong treasury. As Jonathan will explain in the interview, several significant investors have bought stake in the company since we’ve last talked. One corporate investor in particular is Goldcorp. They are the 3rd largest gold producer in the world. And they recently increased their stake in the company over 10%. This is a huge factor going forward. To add to the story… Jonathan gives listeners his 2017 outlook. As GSV plans to take on their biggest, most ambitious drilling program in the history of the company, Jonathan claims this is going to be their “biggest year” to date. So investors: If you felt you missed the boat last occasion… It’s time to take another look. At current levels, the stock looks attractive. Plus, the share price is coming off a 27% pullback from it’s highs. The company seems to be on the cusp of a rebound considering all the catalysts Jonathan unfolds in front of us today. PS – Don’t leave after my guest signs off. Educational Segments are back! On this episode I’m taking the Walt Disney company under the microscope. After Goldman Sach’s recent “buy” recommendation, I’m stepping in to pull apart the truth from all the noise.


    Ep. 506: Frankly Speaking: Time to Invest in Defense Stocks? Apr 07, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking! After news of recent Syria attacks, defense stocks have seen a bit of a spark. We've seen Raytheon (RTN) surge 3%, Lockheed Martin (LMT) rise 1.2%, and Northrop Grumman (NOC) add .9%. Is it time to place our bets? ...Or is it too late? Tune in as I take the defense sector under the microscope. Also, as many of you have heard, my newsletter Curzio Research Advisory is finally live. If you are having any trouble getting the offer, or have had any technical issues... this is the podcast to listen to. Special thanks to Joe, Sid, and Allen. Keep the questions coming! Good Investing, Frank Curzio


    Ep. 505: 20-Years in the Making: Here is Your Special One-Time Offer Apr 05, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! This week’s show is a special one… It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for. My brand-new flagship newsletter, Curzio Research Advisory, is finally live. That’s right, it’s official. And before my guest signs on, I’ve prepared a special segment to tell you all about it. These are specific instructions, tips, and details on how listeners can make the best out of this limited-time opportunity. I’m then joined by Managing Director & Portfolio Manager at Point View Wealth Management - John Petrides. Today, John and I break down a number of topics - politics, emerging markets, economics, you name it… John knows it all. But to start off the interview, John brings up something that’s rarely addressed… It’s a period of time he calls the “Beartrap.” And we’re in the middle of it. It’s the time in between earnings seasons and, as John explains, when investors must be alert. This is when there’s a ton of headline risks... and when individual investors overly focus on short-term economic data. As John puts it, "we don’t want to make long-term decisions based on short-term risks.” Switching gears, John shares with listeners his favorite play in the energy sector. Just last week, this company announced a “home-run” deal. And as it continues to free up cash, lower debt, and buy back shares… this under-the-radar stock is poised for something huge. As always, before John signs off, he highlights his favorite sector going forward… The ultimate hedge against Trump.


    Ep. 504: Frankly Speaking: The Importance of Insider Information Mar 31, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking! First and foremost… I want to thank everybody for their patience. My flagship newsletter, Curzio Research Advisory is just a few days away from launch. And today, without saying too much, I wanted to cover some last minute details. This will include some hints on what to expect, prices, my lifetime offer, and the special reports attached. And please, if you have any questions or concerns about receiving the offer… Email me directly at Frank@CurzioResearch.com. I want to make sure all of my followers have immediate access. My next question comes from Chadwick. He brings up a mining stock located in a region I rarely cover - South Africa. As far as mining stocks go, is South Africa’s jurisdiction worth exploring? I then break down one of the most important factors to look for before any investment. This is something I check before I dive into any numbers or technicals. It's insider trading. Insider information is extremely valuable to us (individual investors). Insider trading shows insider confidence. Let's face it, the mangers and front office executive will always know something that we don't. Insider's buy for only one reason... And timing your investments with theirs can result in huge gains. Tune in to discover how to find them online. After all, it's free. Special thanks to George, Chadwick, Robert, Peter, and Brian. Keep the questions coming! Other topics talked about: The buying hated stocks methodology, and my thought process behind fertilizer/ farming investing.


    Ep. 503: Andrew Horowitz: Two "No-Brainer" Stocks to Short Right Now Mar 29, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! This week I’m joined by longtime friend, Andrew Horowitz. Andrew is the host of the financial podcast – The Disciplined Investor. He is also the CEO and Founder of Horowitz & Company. To start off the interview, Andrew and I talk about the #1 catalyst in the markets right now… We’re talking politics. As Andrew says, “everything the governments talk about, the markets hang their hats on.” And he couldn’t be more spot on. The stock market just had it’s worst week since the election after Donald Trump failed to rally support for his healthcare plan. And with markets already trading at a premium, investor sentiment is beginning to pull back. As we all know, the markets have reached new heights solely on anticipation of Trump’s pro-growth policies. But will they actually be carried out? Tune in as Andrew explains today’s overarching issue… And why paying close attention to the guys upstairs (the government) is now more important than ever before. Then, if there’s one thing that Andrew nails every time he’s on the podcast… It’s his short picks. To end the interview Andrew presents listeners with two more. This is a thesis investors don’t want to miss.

    Ep. 501: How to Invest in Hated Stocks Mar 22, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! On today’s show I bring back the rockstar of CEO’s – Keith Neumeyer. Keith is a pioneer in the resource industry. He has successfully built three publicly traded mining companies And today, he catches us up to date on two of them - First Mining Finance (FF.V), and First Majestic Silver (AG). I first invited Keith on the show directly after the launch of his first gold venture, First Mining Finance. At the time, the stock was at just at $.30. Today, the stock price rests right around $1. Keith has a knack for buying assets at the right time. In other words, he’s an expert at timing the market. As you’ll hear on the show, “what you pay for assets is how you create value” is his motto. When he launched First Mining Finance, gold prices were sitting at record-level lows. And when commodity prices finally rebounded last year, his company took off – reaching gains well over 300%. Today Keith gives us his outlook for the company going forward, along with the yellow-metal itself. Moving on, we turn our focus to Keith’s other company, First Majestic Silver (AG). First Majestic is the largest Silver producer in the world. And looking at the numbers, The company has everything in place. Then for today’s Educational Segment, we take a closer look at one of my favorite market strategies – Buying hated stocks. One-by-one, I break down a list of Wall Street’s most hated companys. These are the stocks that everyone avoids; and stocks that have “sell” ratings across the board. This includes names like Twitter, Valeant, Sears, Macy’s, Gamestop, and Target. By any means, what I am about to introduce to you is not an easy strategy… But when you follow these steps, it can work like a charm. This is the stuff that has led me to my greatest gains in my career. And it’s the only contrarian formula you need to know.


    Ep. 500: Frankly Speaking: 6 Critical Steps Before Any Mining Investment Mar 17, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking! Think you got what it takes to work with Jim Cramer? My first question of the day comes from Jim himself. He’s looking for some help. And I promised him I would reach out to you - my listeners. If you didn’t know, I worked under Jim for 5 years at TheStreet.com as an Senior Analys... And I have never had a better learning experience outside of that 5 year span. It was a job of a lifetime. And I wouldn’t be here today without it. If interested in the opportunity, be sure to tune in for the specific instructions. I’ll see what I can do. Moving on, and after some March Madness talk (sorry, I just had to mention my Jayhawks), we get back on track [14:40]. This is when I take a closer look at the gold stock, Timmins Gold Corp (TGD). Tune in as I take listeners, start to finish, throughout my entire analysis process. These are my 6 never-skip qualifications before I make any mining investment. This is the stuff that has saved me a fortune. Special thanks to Zach, Darren, & Reymond. Keep them coming! Just email your questions to me at Frank@CurzioResearch.com, with the subject line: Frankly Speaking


    Ep. 499: Panna Sharma: Changing the Face of Cancer Mar 15, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! On today’s show, I introduce listeners to Panna Sharma. Panna is the CEO and President of a small-cap, clinical and diagnostics company - Cancer Genetics (CGIX). Panna brings together everything you need to know about the company. It’s core focus? Precision medicine. And the drug industry is betting big on it… To start off the interview, Panna and I talk about how treatments and innovations in the industry are rapidly changing… In the past, companies were betting on single drugs and routine treatments to cure all. But considering the complex, biological diversity of something like cancer, there has never been and never will be “one answer.” Panna explains how the industry and his company in particular are making huge strides in the right direction. Recently, we’ve seen a transfer from trial-and-error medicines to evidence-based medicine. And instead of dividing patients into groups based on thousands of outcomes, today you can now treat patients baseds on the details of their own unique genes. The trend is the death of “one size fits all.” And companies like Cancer Genetics are sitting at the center of it. The business model, as Panna says, comes from a “multi-tiered” approach. The company focuses on drug design, clinical trials, and diagnosis development. It’s a strategy leveraged from genomic data, innovation, and collaboration. And it benefits both side’s of the equation - the world of biotech/pharma development, as well as the patients. Now for those that are familiar with my podcast, you know that I’m picky... And you probably have heard about my show’s golden rule -- To never bring on a CEO of a company I don’t personally believe in. In other words, don’t take this as a sales pitch. This company, no doubt, has long-term growth potential. And Panna has all the right answers to back it up… After looking at what’s actually on paper, it was difficult to turn away. For one, there’s high insider ownership. But more important, Cancer Genetics is working with 8 out of the top 10 biotech companies. A small company with strong partnerships with some of the biggest names in the industry is huge. This commercial traction alone is their strongest catalyst going forward. The current share price is sitting just above $2.00. And valuations are at a steep discount compared to other traditional genomic diagnosis companies. But before taking any action, note that earnings are only one week away. And considering the current shape of the industry, be sure to do some homework. Again, this is a long-term play… And resources like this interview are a great place to start. Not only is this a company that should be on everyone’s radar, this is one of those “feel good” stories. And I’m more than happy to introduce listeners to the opportunity. Just click here to listen…


    Ep. 498: Frankly Speaking: You're Getting Paid to Wait... Mar 11, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking! My new newsletter, Curzio Research Advisory is just a couple weeks away... And to start off today's episode, I need to clear up some confusion. Listeners will hear all about my special offer, how to sign up, and a general description of what the newsletters entails. And as you'll hear, there's more to it than just stock picks... Moving on, today's main segment covers one of the most hated stocks on Wall Street - Target (TGT). All the analyst are negative... the price is sitting at multi-year lows... and the retail sector is spiraling downwards. I always advise my listeners to "never catch a falling knife" but for Target, this isn't the case anymore. Tune in as I explain why the risk/reward looks favorable. There are 3 major catalysts that I believe will finally drive this depressed stock higher. Thanks for listening and good investing! Frank Curzio


    Ep. 497: Rich Suttmeier: The Ultimate Bear Mar 08, 2017

    Hello and welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! On this week's show I'm joined by market veteran - Richard Suttmeier. Rich has been analyzing stocks for over 40 years and is a weekly contributor for Forbes and TheStreet.com. He is the founder and CEO of Global Market Consultants. There's one thing about Richard that sets himself apart from any other guest I have on the show… He is the ultimate bear. But I don't blame him either… Rich is one of the few analysts I know that dives into data he calls “the balance sheet of the US economy.” Otherwise known as the FDIC Banking Profile. And on today’s episode, he takes us under the hood of the fourth quarter results - suggesting that some stocks have rallied too far, too fast. Rich brings the "overbought" argument back to the table. And highlights the several risks stocks are still exposed to… despite deregulation and other pro-business administrative efforts. He explains why investors need to play it safe and book their profits now, before it’s too late. As Richard puts it, a market correction is going to occur a lot sooner than expected. Now I can’t agree with everything… But as investors, it’s always important to look at a different perspective. And although Richard presents us with ideas that might sound extreme, let’s face it, you can never be “too safe.”


    Ep. 496: Frankly Speaking: Personal Finance 101 Mar 04, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking. Before we dive into any questions today… I have an important announcement. In just a few more weeks will be the launch of my new newsletter - Curzio Research Advisory. As we're approaching episode 500 of my Wall Street Unplugged podcast, this is something that has been a long-time in the making. And today, I wanted to share with you (my subscribers) a few more details. Moving on to today’s main segment… Although my expertise is in the markets, investing, and stocks… every now and then I get a question that covers personal finance. This relates to everyone… and especially if you’re new to investing. Whether it’s student loan debt, car loans, or mortgage payments… I present listeners my #1 word of advice. It’s simpler than you think, and more importantly, it’s never too late. Other topics covered today include: An update on Northern Dynasty and their EPA concerns, stop-loss orders, and more advice on how to use 13F’s to your full advantage...


    Ep. 495: Jordan Trimble: This one could triple Mar 01, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! On today’s show I bring back Jordan Trimble - President and CEO of Skyharbour Resources (SYH.V). Skyharbour stands today as one of the most overlooked Uranium explorers. It's located in the heart of what's now known as the #1 mining jurisdiction is the world - Canada's Saskatchewan. Since Jordan was last on the show in November, we've seen a massive shift in the sector. Today, Jordan catches listeners up to date. Aside from Uranium prices finally coming off their lows... Skyharbour Resources alone has jumped nearly 150% in just 3 months. From .28 to .69, the stock still rests under $1 but as Jordan explains, this won’t be the case much longer… Skyharbour just released news on their most recent drilling program. And the results are game-changing. But as investors, lets not forget - junior miners don’t generate any revenue… cash concerns are critical, and at times, over-drilling can be detrimental... even in favorable economic conditions. As the company plans to aggressively drill in the near future, I ask Jordan the questions all investors need to know. Then, stepping back from the technicals, we take a closer look at the Uranium market as a whole. We already know demand is ramping up… but what about the other catalyst? As Jordan explains, there are multiple underestimated market components. These are factors that will only continue to drive Uranium prices higher. The fundamentals are all lining up. As for Skyharbour, if you took my recommendation a few months ago... keep enjoying the ride. As I expect Uranium prices to double in the next 6 to 12 months... well positioned companies like Jordan's should reap all the benefits. Also, don’t miss this week’s Educational Segment [45:36]. As the market continues to reach new all-time highs, fears are rising. Is the market too expensive? Are we overvalued? Absolutely not. Ignore it. Too many metrics are telling the wrong story.


    Ep. 494: Frankly Speaking: Tesla Debunked Feb 24, 2017

    Hello and welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking! For the most part, today’s show is not too different from others. Well, aside from one thing... I’ve got a headache. And although there’s a lot to cover… today I take a moment to step away from the market-talk. No “shots fired” or anything, but there’s just a few things I need to clear up. And every once in awhile it’s a bit more fun hosting a show - without any filter. I use this occasion to talk about the last newsletter I worked for… one of the biggest insurance scams in the world… and my apparent faulty claims on Boeing’s automation front. As for the markets… Last week, I touched base on one of the largest bubbles on planet - Chinese real-estate. Time to short? ...Not so fast. On today’s show, I dig a little deeper. And by looking at the big picture, this is a situation that almost makes too much sense. Tune in as I explain why investors need to pump their brakes on this particular trade… Then, for today’s main segment, I talk about about the one and only - Tesla (TSLA). And why anything you read on this stock, you must take with a grain of salt. This is not a buy, or sell. In fact, I’m indifferent… But at least I tell the truth. Special thanks to Matt, Jake, Michael, Brian, and Joseph. Keep the questions coming!


    Ep. 493: Discover the next trend gurus are betting on Feb 22, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! To begin the show, and before my guest signs on... I share one of the most underutilized tools in the world of financial research and analysis. They’re called 13F's. Every quarter, all hedge funds and institutional investment managers with over $100 million in qualifying assets are required to report something called a SEC 13F filing. Simply put, these 13F reports disclose what the largest investors in the world are buying and dumping… allowing regular people like you and me to see exactly where the "smart money" is moving. This is the easiest way investors can trade with famous traders like George Soros, Warren Buffett, or John Paulson. And they are publicly available every quarter… in full detail. Breaking down these reports can lead to the market's most interesting trends. And, with nothing to hide, this is where I find a lot of my new investment ideas. Today I share a few examples… Then for this week’s interview, I’m joined by John Petrides – Managing Director and Portfolio Manager at Point View Wealth Management. John is a Wall Street Unplugged regular. From retail and telecom… to infrastructure, healthcare, and financial sectors... Every time John joins the show, he covers it all. And today he starts with earnings season... Thus far, just over 85% of the S&P 500 companies have reported earnings. And about 66% have exceeded analyst expectations. Today, however, we take a closer look at the more important metrics… Earnings growth has reached a 3-year high. And with forward expectations getting dangerously high, John raises all the right questions. We also talk about today's most hated industry… Out of all sectors this earnings season, none performed as poor as retail. Stores like JC Penney, Macy's, and Target have all been crushed this past holiday season. And although shopping trends continue to point online, John and I both agree that the end is nowhere near for department stores. Tune in to hear who we think will survive… To end the interview, John prepares investors for upcoming rate hikes. The fed fund rates are currently sitting at 1.25%. But due to “hawkish” changes coming soon, John expects rates to reach as high as 3% in only 2 years from now. More importantly, John shares with listeners his two favorite sectors going forward in today’s deregulatory environment. And also shares with us 4 international stocks that he considers “buys” today. Then, for my Educational Segment, I cover the fastest growing industry in the world. It has ties with every sector on the planet. However, because it’s still early, this highly talked about sector is a minefield. Join me as I break down the numbers… and show listeners exactly how they can stay one-step ahead of this enormous yet dicey industry.


    Ep. 492: Frankly Speaking: The infrastructure trend is for real Feb 17, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking! Keep the questions coming! Last week, the Consumer Price Index (CPI), otherwise known as the inflation rate, posted its largest gain in nearly four years - crushing expectations. And as Fed Chairman, Janet Yellen, has already promised, an interest rate hike is just around the corner. Investors everywhere are ramping up for this massive macroeconomic change. But what does this mean for gold? With mild inflationary trends and expected growth in the dollar… almost everyone is expecting the price of the yellow metal to drop. But I can’t say I agree… Then, taking my focus overseas, I talk about China’s massive real estate bubble. And highlight the best ways for investors to position themselves around the crisis. Get your pens ready as I give listeners a list of ETF’s to pay close attention to. Today’s show also covers one of the biggest topics addressed in this past election (republican or democrat) - American Infrastructure. As you’ll hear, the infrastructure trend is for real. And as far as President Trump’s lengthy promised to-do-list, I expect infrastructure changes to lead the way. Good new for investors - there are a ton of stocks still in the sector that are relatively cheap in comparison to the S&P500. Tune in as I explain why it’s time to start placing your bets… And finally, to end the episode, I bring a few stocks under the microscope. This includes some of the top companies in the US that paying the highest tax rates. The stocks are CVS Pharmacy, KMI, and General Electric. As always, thanks for tuning in and good investing, Frank Curzio PS - For those not familiar... I host my Frankly Speaking podcast every Friday. And unlike my Wall Street Unplugged podcast (I host every Wednesday), I use this show to answer my favorite subscriber questions I receive on my email. The goal is to help educate, advise, and guide listeners through all the noise surrounding the financial industry. If you have any questions and want a chance to be mentioned on this podcast - simply email me at . Also, be sure to put “Frankly Speaking” in the subject line. Thank you for the continued support!


    Ep. 491: Fund Manager Frank Holmes Unplugged Feb 15, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! Today's guest is Frank Holmes, CEO and Chief Investment Officer of U.S. Global Investors. If there’s anyone that knows the global economy, it's Frank. To begin the episode, Frank talks about the reality of deregulation. As we all know, the Trump administration has promised massive tax reforms. But Frank argues that these reforms are going to take much longer than what has been initially anticipated. As Frank says, it’s time investors realize Trumps pro-business reforms will “take twice as long… cost twice as much… and will make everyone half as happy.” In addition, Frank explains his bullish stance on the mining, materials, and energy sectors. According to Frank, the recent cutbacks in supply for several commodities will soon lead to large increases in price. Changing topics, Frank then gives his outlook for the airline industry. Two years ago Frank’s company, US Global Investors, launched what’s now known as the #1 airlines ETF in the world (JETS). And his timing couldn’t of been better… Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway, as of last week, is now investing $8M into the airliner industry. This is the same industry he called a “death trap for investors” just 5 years ago. As Frank explains, a lot has changed since then. Following decades of mergers, bankruptcies, and other disruptions, this sector is finally finding some stability. And current valuations are low – trading at 12 times earnings. Tune in as Frank makes his case for the finest pure-play airliner investment in this rejuvenated sector. Then, to close up the interview, Frank discusses “smart data.” And his methodologies behind emerging market investments in countries like China, India, and Argentina. These are places where so many investors have been burnt – yet where Frank has found so much success. Although there is still money to make in America, Frank shows us little-known ways to diversify our portfolios overseas. Also, I'll be covering this week's interesting short report on Northern Dynasty (NAK). I've been getting tons of questions. And I hope this segment clears up all the confusion. This is one of the most corrupt occurrences in the financial industry... and it's completely legal! Before Frank Holmes signs on - I'll be highlighting the several blatant lies made in this report.


    Ep. 490: Frankly Speaking: Capital gains are overrated Feb 10, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking! Today's first question covers a stock I recommended over a year ago - Universal Corp (UVV). This is a type of stock that is the complete opposite of any mining company I've ever mentioned. It's what I like to call an "elite dividend payer." Most "elite dividend payers" are companies you'll never hear about. These are companies that have plenty of cash flow... they're not exiciting... and they don't plan on raising cash anytime soon. Wall Street loves to rave on and on about a stocks capital gains but never the other crucial part of the formula - the dividend yield. Over time, as these companies continue to raise their dividend, investors can make a fortune. Then, there are some stocks you should never ever short or bet against. And believe it or not.. Tesla (TSLA) is one of them. The company has a lot of work to do to live up to their valuations... and although the fundamentals scream its a sure short... Investors need to be very careful here. Tune in as I explain why. I'll be giving away the most important rule behind shorting stocks. Also, I answer a question that couldn't be better as far as timing. It covers earnings season. There’s a lot of "funny money" business going on around this time of year. And analyzing stocks off these company earnings can get very confusing. So, to end the episode, I clear some things up. I cover the difference between manipulated earnings and adjusted earnings.


    Ep. 489: Invest alongside the greatest mining investors in the world... and get free warrants right now Feb 08, 2017

    Hello and welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! Today I'm joined by longtime friend - Marin Katusa, CEO & founder of Katusa Research. For any new listeners out there, I often bring Marin on the show as he is, hands-down, the most connected person in the mining industry. To start off the interview, Marin discusses the current states of gold, uranium and other resource sectors. As every investor should know, the dollar almost always moves inversely with the price of gold. For this reason, gold investments are used as a "safe haven" for investors around the globe. When markets become volatile and fears arise, gold is usually your best hedge. In the event of market downturns, gold prices surge... limiting your losses. Again... the dollar/gold inverse relationship has been the common rule of thumb for as long as I can remember... Marin claims, however, that 2017 will be a break for this historical pattern. And gives us a closer look as to why... Switching gears, we then talk about the geopolitical environment of one of the biggest trends today - Uranium. Through this analysis, Marin explains a huge angle of the Russia/ Trump story that nobody else is talking about... As a result, he shares with us one of the biggest secrets behind investing in Uranium this year. And tells listeners exactly where to avoid all Uranium investments. Then, the big announcement... Marin introduces listeners to another private placement opportunity. Listen up as this is your chance to invest with some of the greatest investors in the world. Marin will break down all the details. And give listeners everything they need to know about his next long-term commitment.


    Ep. 488: Frankly Speaking: Officially The Greatest Company In The World Feb 03, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking! Keep the questions coming! The first topic of the day covers the inevitable... A recession. The business economy is one big cycle. Historically speaking, the markets expand, contract, and recover... over and over again. Where do we stand today? Well, theres been a lot of positives to takeaway from the markets recently... Let's take a closer look... Earnings are growing by 8% thus far for nearly 70% of S&P 500 companies... Wages are growing at the highest rate since 2009... And now, due to the Trump administration - we're looking at new regulations and a massive tax reform in the near future. Trump, so far, has sent shockwaves throughout the market but the dollar continues to strengthen. As I explain in the show, the possibility of a near economic down cycle is slim - and way further out than I initially expected. But let's get back to the point... a recession is inevitable. As investors, we want to stay aware of where the markets are heading. And although you don't need to worry about another crisis anytime soon, you always want to be prepared. So tune in as I tell listeners which stocks you need to own - during a recession, and while the market is falling. Then, after a slew of earnings releases this week, there's a few companies I wanted to go over... The first company I break down is Facebook (FB) - what I now like to call the "the greatest company in the world." The social media giant just reported outstanding quarterly earnings by completely blowing estimates out of the water. CEO Mark Zuckerberg is like the Bill Gates of the 90's. Throughout my 20 years of financial research, I've never seen a company grow and dominate as quickly as Facebook has. Although we may see a slight pull back in the stock price in the coming weeks... I explain why the sky is the limit for this company. Chipotle (CMG), the other company I talk about on today's show, experienced just the opposite as fas earnings go... The company reported a 76% decrease in profits compared to this quarter a year ago. Since the release, the stock price is down nearly 20 points! As investors, this might just be the drop we've been waiting for. Also, there's something I wanted to ask you (my subscribers)... We need your help. Before I sign off today and to end the episode, learn how you can contribute to my new blog. Special thanks to David, Reuben, Rusty, Joe, Jack, and Rex... Other stocks mentioned: McEwen Mining (MUX), BlackBird Energy (BBI.V), Northern Dynasty (NAK), Gold Miners ETF (GDX), Amazon (AMZN), Schlumberger (SLB), Encana (ECA), GoPro (GPRO), FitBit (FIT), International Business Machines (IBM), Post Holdings (POST), Boeing (BA).


    Ep. 487: Introducing the finest oil patch in North America Feb 01, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! I begin today's episode by covering one of the most talked about companies on Wall Street - Apple. Their earnings were just released, beating expectations across the board. And since the news, analysts' reactions have been overwhelmingly bullish. But I can't say I agree… And I'm not so sure about Apple's quarter being "dynamic" either. After doing some of my own digging, I've realized there are some underlying truths about Apple’s 2016 end results... catalysts' that no one else cares to mention. Year-over-year, earnings have only grown 2% - mostly influenced by buybacks and a favorable tax rate. Yes, they blew expectations out of the water. But how much were earnings estimates lowered? Thus far, I've had a pretty good track record on covering this tech giant... and considering all of the noise surrounding this story - I have to warn my listeners. So, before my guest signs on, I'll be explaining why I'm not buying into all of the hype. Then, for today's main segment… I'll be introducing listeners to a stock that should 100% - be on everyone’s radar. The following company has the potential to become the next "market dominator." And shares are still selling for under $1. That’s why I brought on today’s guest, Garth Braun - President and CEO of Blackbird Energy (BBI.V). Garth's Blackbird Energy was by far, in my opinion, the most impressive company at last week's Vancouver Resource Investment Conference - which hosted over 200 names in the sector. Garth has done the unthinkable. And I was sold in less than 5 minutes of talking to him… Garth has taken Blackbird from a small, speculative explorer - to a $300 Million dollar company. And unlike most junior's in the sector, they don't just have a stake in the ground... waiting for a price-tag or an industry-leader acquisition... They are actually drilling and producing some of the finest natural-gas condensate in the world - located smack in the middle of the Montney Formation - Canada's next big energy bet. "Over the last 18 months, some of the largest transactions in Canada, outside of the oil sands, have been located in this region." Industry leaders like Encana, Apache, Shell, and Sinopec now have holdings practically located in Blackbird's backyard. To make matters better, Garth was one of the first to discover this liquid-rich area. In 2014, he says, people considered this land as "moose pasture." But it doesn't stop there… Due to the low priced oil market, Garth's team has been determined to innovate. And as a result, Blackbird Energy has made significant advancements. They've cut costs "dramatically" with state of the art technology. And experts are calling their innovations "disruptive." Garth has clearly lead his company through an amazing transformation. Although the stock price is currently resting at 52-week highs, the recent jump has been well deserved. This is not meant to be a promotion. I truly believe this company has more upside potential than any other stock priced below $1. However, as we all know, rewards will come with risks. Stocks that are priced this low can still be very volatile - especially in the oil industry. So I’m urging all listeners to do their own research. Still, Blackbird’s story is one you don’t want to miss. And finally, for today's Educational Segment, we're throwing stocks, finance, and economics out the door. I will be making one of boldest bets all year.


    Ep. 486: Frankly Speaking: How to invest on my recommendations Jan 28, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode… To start off today’s stream of questions, I explain to listeners one of the biggest misconceptions in investing. The key to investing in any stock (not just the ones I recommend) comes down to just one simple trick - patience. Many listeners have learned the hard way so I wanted to fully address this once and for all. Its extremely important that investors take their time on placing their bets. Meaning, if you do believe in a stock's long-term position, don't make a FULL investment all on the same day. Tune in as I explain how this strategy is one of the best ways to avoid volatility in the markets. I guarantee your returns will see better results. I then revisit my position on a stock that's been beaten down tremendously. This stock was considered "the darling" of the biotech industry a little over a year ago. It went from being loved by analysts across the board, to now - hated. I’ll be explaining why this biotech pioneer has the potential to rebound over the next 12 to 18 months. Moving on to the next question, I talk about one of today’s biggest trends - Marijuana. David, a Colorado local, says the marijuana industry is booming and asks if now is the perfect time to invest... I couldn’t disagree anymore. If you own any marijuana stocks, be sure to listen as I break down the sector. Although we’ve seen a recent run-up in stock prices, I believe the industry will continue to face huge headwinds. These stocks are simply trades… NOT investments. And finally, to end the episode, it's Nike (NKE) vs. Under Armour (UA). Tune in as I pick my favorite out of the two for 2017. Other topics include: A sneak peek for next week's Wall Street Unplugged with CEO of BlackBird Energy, KKR's future earnings, and whether it’s too late to get in on Northern Dynasty (NAK). Special thanks to Roland, Brandon, Matt, David, Dave, Nate, and Steve. Keep the questions coming!


    Ep. 485: Marc Lichtenfeld: How to play the biotech rebound Jan 25, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! It's only January, but if you've followed me for the past few weeks, you've come to realize how important this month really is. I covered one key conference (CES2017) a couple weeks ago. And on today's episode, I have two more coming for you. It's a lot of information in only just a few weeks but bare with me... Each of these conferences come with game-changing announcements. To start, let’s go over what a difference a year makes... Donald Trump is now in office, and the bull market continues to get stronger. In fact, the Dow Jones Industrial Average hit over 20,000 for the first time this week! This “Trump rally” has been strong for investors in every sector… except for one - Biotech. That’s why I invited Marc… Marc is Chief Income Strategist at the Oxford Club, Editor of the Oxford Income Letter and host of the Oxford Club Radio podcast. He just got back from the JPMorgan Healthcare Conference. For those not familiar, the JPMorgan Healthcare Conference its like the Superbowl for healthcare, biotech, and pharmaceuticals. To start off the interview, Marc gives us his takeaways from the event. As Marc explains, the biotech sector has recently been facing a ton of headwinds. The sector currently faces a slew of new regulations as new administration takes the reigns. And in return, the biotech sector got a bit more complex. Although times are rough today, Marc breaks down his opportunistic outlook for the sector going forward. Investors must be patient as we are still in the "early innings" of biotech treatment Marc says. However, he adds that the demand for this sector will explode relatively soon. Together, we then break down the trends and stocks that are going to have the highest impact on the sector. These trends include big data and DNA sequencing. Also, before Marc signs off, he shares with us his favorite growth & income stock outside of the biotech sector. Then, for today's Educational Segment [39:31], I break down my visit to the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference - the largest junior mining conference in the world. The host and close friend, Marin Katusa, invited me to speak at the event. This is where it gets interesting… Out of the 5,000 people at this conference, not one person seemed to be bearish on the resource sector. What does that mean? ...It means I'm nervous. Let's not forget... Only 1 in 3,000 projects go from early stage development to actual production. To make matters worse, some of these stocks are already up 100%-300% from their lows yet people are still doubling their positions! But it's not all bad news. Although about 90% of these companies are terrible long-term investments, a few CEO's I met with were far from bluffing. Tune in as I introduce listeners to the few stocks that caught my attention. One is a stock that could potentially be the next Northern Dynasty!


    Ep. 484: Frankly Speaking: Why we can't forget about the large-caps Jan 20, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Frankly Speaking. Today's stream of questions start with one concerning a stock I recommended over a year ago - Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co (CTO). Odds are - you've never heard of this company. The business is boring. And you won't find much news on it. But I've seen this company grow firsthand - practically in my own backyard. One year later, I still see upside potential. Tune in as I break down the details... Also, my newsletter, Curzio Venture Opportunities, is approaching just its fourth month since launching in November. And it’s been a wild ride ever since. However, I've been recently getting tons of questions on how to access the newsletter. Well, for those interested, I'll be giving away everything you need to know on how to join. But I'll warn you... Not everyone is qualified. And if the price is too high, please, don't worry. I might of spoke too much already. But today I announce that we have something else in the works... My next question covers today’s main segment [17:16]. Since the Trump election, we’ve spent a lot of time focusing on a variety of small-caps. But there are stocks we simply cannot forget, regardless of new policies... Most of these companies have been around for decades. Whether the market is up or down, these management teams have been through it all. I can guarantee it. More importantly, markets are cyclical. Which means plenty of well-known, safe stocks are still out there - just weeks away from rebounding. Today I share a few names I have in mind. Other questions covered include; Northern Dynasty's (NAK) recent capital raise, the CES, and my formula for investing dangerous small-cap biotechs. Special thanks to Michael, Joel, Brian, Paul, and Greg. Keep the questions coming!


    Ep. 483: Amir Adnani: New Dawn for Nuclear Power Jan 18, 2017

    Welcome back to another episode of Wall Street Unplugged! This week I’m joined by Amir Adnani – CEO of Uranium Energy Corp. & GoldMining Inc. (formerly known as Brazil Resources) On today’s show, Amir and I dive into one of the biggest topics in the markets right now – Uranium. If you own any Uranium stocks, or you’re thinking about buying, this is a must-listen. Because for the first time in years, a new dawn for nuclear power is finally approaching. To start off the interview, Amir gives listeners 3 reasons why the “perfect storm” is on its way. We’ve already seen a swing in prices and Uranium is trading at levels not seen since 2004. But let’s not get too ahead of ourselves. Amir explains why investors must be patient. If you haven’t bought into Uranium yet, don’t worry. Although all signs are pointing upward, he say’s companies are still in “no man’s land” – with current Uranium prices sitting at just $22/lb. The point is, however, the Uranium market is finally coming off it’s lows. And we don’t expect prices to return anytime soon. The turnaround is real. And demand expectations are promising… After all, the number of reactors under construction world-wide are at record levels! Tune in to hear everything you need to know about the sector. Amir and I then dive into a stock listeners should be very familiar with – GoldMining (BRI.V). Yes, we’ve seen Gold take an unexpected hit since the Presidential election… but that doesn’t mean investors should run. To end the episode, Amir reassures his investors. He explains how his company, GoldMining, plans to keep building on top of an already strong, overlooked balance sheet. And finally, I move on to my educational segment [54:33]. Sector by sector, I’ll be breaking down this upcoming earnings season. Let’s just say this – Don’t be fooled by analyst estimates, they’re outrageous…
