Wall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These Markets

Latest Episodes:

The REAL reason for higher food and energy prices (Hint: it's not Putin) Jun 08, 2022

Show notes

Daniel and I start today's show by discussing the biggest risk to the market: inflation. While some data shows inflation is peaking, we break down why consumers will see elevated prices for a while. Next, we highlight the government's blame-shifting narrative around inflation and soaring costs… what's really driving higher food and energy prices (hint: it's not Putin)... and the best way to bring prices back down. And we explain why you don't need to wait for a market bottom to start picking away at the best stocks. We also discuss the Securities & Exchange Commission's (SEC) proposed changes to "payment for order flow"... and whether this game-changing proposal is good or bad for individual investors. Finally, I share why I believe Bitcoin will go over $100k. In this episode: It's time to start picking away at great stocks [1:05] Government leaders are shifting the blame for higher prices [3:45] The real cause of—and solution for—soaring food and energy costs [11:00] Big market changes could be coming from the SEC [17:05] Why I'm bullish on Bitcoin [25:35] Enjoyed this episode?

How to spot the best stocks for the current market Jun 07, 2022

Show notes

I just got back from my daughter's basketball tournament in Orlando… and it was eye-opening to see how costs are rising. Speaking of rising prices, the Fed is finally serious about fighting inflation. I highlight what businesses must do to stay afloat in this environment… why supply chain constraints aren't going away anytime soon… and which industries to avoid. I share the qualities you should look for when buying stocks… a couple of names that belong on your radar… and some positive signs that the market is near a bottom. I see huge upside potential for stocks right now. That's why I added three new positions to the Curzio Venture Opportunities portfolio last week… and why I'll be releasing two new recommendations to Curzio Research Advisory members tomorrow. In this episode: Consumers are spending less money [0:23] What businesses must do to survive [8:00] Avoid these supply chain-sensitive industries [11:25] Critical qualities to look for when buying stocks [20:00] Signs we're near a market bottom [24:00] Enjoyed this episode?

Is it too late to buy oil stocks? Jun 02, 2022

Show notes

Frank is traveling this week, so I (Daniel Creech) am behind the mic to cover the markets and rising energy prices… Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, is warning investors to "brace yourself" for an economic hurricane. I give my thoughts on his prediction. I also explain why President Biden's Wall Street Journal op-ed shows how government policies will lead to even higher oil prices… and the European Union's latest Russian sanctions will only hurt local economies. Bottom line, if you think you've missed the gains in energy stocks, think again… In this episode: Jamie Dimon warns of economic hurricane [1:10] High rates and inflation are the new market normal [4:15] President Biden's op-ed missed the mark on energy prices [7:25] Why the new EU sanctions on Russian are a bad idea [11:55] You haven't missed the opportunity in oil stocks [14:45] Enjoyed this episode?

How to trade the crypto bear market Jun 01, 2022

Show notes

Daniel joins me to tackle your questions on the crypto bear market… and the box office blowout of Top Gun: Maverick. We cover how to handle crypto volatility.... factors to help guide your selling decisions… and a strategy for exiting positions. Daniel also shares his thesis on digital asset financial services company Galaxy Digital Holdings (BRPHF)… how to deal with emotions when a position goes against you… and when he'll sell his stock holdings. Despite the bear market, money continues to pour into the crypto space. We discuss some key examples, including VC firm Andreessen Horowitz, which just raised $4.5 billion to take advantage of crypto bargains. And we've partnered with TCG World to buy a $5 million stake in metaverse real estate. (If you're accredited and want to invest alongside us, go here.) Finally… Top Gun: Maverick made box office history Memorial Day weekend. We share whether we'd buy AMC or IMAX to benefit from the massive $156 million opening. In this episode: Is Daniel still bullish on Galaxy Digital? [3:55] How to manage crypto losses and prepare for next bull market [14:25] Will AMC or IMAX soar with Top Gun: Maverick? [24:25] How accredited investors can get in on our historic metaverse deal [32:30] Enjoyed this episode?

Today's episode starts with a look at previous bear markets… how long it took for investors' fears to be fully priced into stocks… and why earnings growth will fuel the next big rally. I also break down the factors behind surging energy and food prices… and one sector that will ride the uptrend. Next, I update my inflation predictions… and explain why—despite the current risks—there's a lot of upside for stocks right now. That's why I added three new positions to the Curzio Venture Opportunities portfolio last week.

We just announced a historic deal here at Curzio Research: We're partnering with TCG World to purchase $5 million worth of land in its metaverse. In September, TCG will launch what I believe to be the best metaverse in existence. Regular listeners have heard me talk about the enormous opportunity the metaverse offers early investors. But today, you get to hear it directly from David Evans, the CEO of TCG World. David shares what attracted him to the metaverse… how it differs from other virtual worlds… and how it will soon blend with real life.

My largest personal investment—ever May 25, 2022

I'm taking more of your questions and comments about the market (and one about the NBA). A listener comments on our major deal with TCG World to buy land in the metaverse. I explain why this will be a game-changer for our business—and how accredited investors can get a stake alongside us. Next, I take a question on whether EV maker Rivian Automotive's stock is worth looking at… and the same listener wants to know who I like for the NBA playoffs. Finally, I explain why I'm bullish on markets despite China's COVID lockdowns… and why it's different from the lockdowns of March 2020.

Stocks to sell before earnings May 24, 2022

Show notes

I won't sugarcoat it: The last several weeks have been sh***y for the markets. I want to be here for you, so I'm answering more questions from listeners and subscribers. (I'll continue taking questions over the next few weeks, so if you have any, email me at frank@curzioresearch.com.) To start, I cover the latest painful market movements—and why you need to steer clear of companies that haven't reported earnings yet… but highlight some positive signs I'm seeing. Then, I answer questions on whether Amazon is a buy... and how much cash you should hold in your portfolio. Plus, a listener shares how I saved him money earlier this year. Lastly, I break down the state of the supply chain crisis for automakers—and whether any of these companies are worth considering.

[10:00] What should you do with your cash? [17:31] How I helped one listener get ahead of inflation [28:34] Are any automakers buys amid the supply chain crisis? [31:50] Enjoyed this episode?

Why safe havens are no longer safe May 18, 2022

Show notes

Today is my 50th birthday! With the major indices down across the board, I want to answer a few more questions from listeners about this volatile market. I cover why safe havens aren't so safe anymore… whether it's worth investing overseas right now… if Walmart and other big names are buys after massive pullbacks… why the metaverse is far from just a fad… and who I see as the winner in the electric vehicle (EV) market (hint: it's not Tesla). In this episode: Why the market's safe havens are getting hit [0:35] "Is there any interest in investing in emerging markets?" [4:25] "Should you buy Walmart on this pullback?" [13:25] "Is the metaverse a fad?" [27:32] "Is Tesla the clear EV winner?" [39:50] Enjoyed this episode?
