Summary

Scott and Ed unpack RFK Jr.’s push to make it harder, and pricier, for pharma companies to advertise directly to consumers, a move that could be the final blow to the broadcast industrial complex. Next, they explore the IPO market’s rebound and why, despite the buzz, it's a trap for retail investors. Finally, they break down the dollar’s decline since Trump took office, and why gold’s rise as a safe-haven asset isn’t enough to win them over.
