In this insightful clip from Market Mondays, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings dive deep into the future of software companies in the rapidly evolving AI era. As artificial intelligence transforms every industry, which tech titans are set to thrive—and who is at risk of falling behind? Ian Dunlap highlights "AI indestructible" companies, naming SAP, Intuit, and ADP as strong contenders, while noting that well-known names like Duolingo and Adobe may face challenges. The panel debates the obvious winners—like Microsoft, with its Copilot integration and innovation through Azure—and discuss sleeper picks such as ServiceNow, lauded for its forward-thinking leadership and connectivity solutions. The discussion shifts to the race for an "agentic AI stack": an AI platform that can handle personal tasks like answering all your emails hands-free. Rashad Bilal and Ian Dunlap weigh in on whether Google, Apple, Microsoft, or Tesla will be first, with Google considered a front-runner thanks to its deep AI roots and integration with essential services like email and calendar. However, Rashad argues Apple’s dominance in vertical integration (managing texts, music, calendar, and email on a device most Americans use) gives it an edge—if it can catch up in AI investments. The clip doesn’t shy away from tough criticism of Apple’s leadership, with Rashad questioning Tim Cook's strategy and pointing out that Apple was offered the same deal that made Microsoft an AI leader—and turned it down. While Apple products remain indispensable and its ecosystem robust, signs of underinvestment in AI are causing market cap slippage and stirring calls for leadership change. Comparisons are drawn to companies that failed to keep up with innovation in the past—like BlackBerry and Intel—serving as a cautionary tale for Apple if it doesn’t shake things up. The hosts discuss what Apple should do next, from innovating through major acquisitions to fostering new executive leadership capable of driving AI progress. The debate closes with a reflection on whether being top of the market is enough—or if Apple, like in sports, needs new leadership to set a winning culture. Are Tim Cook’s days numbered, and is internal succession already in motion? Don’t miss this candid, thought-provoking conversation on how AI is reshaping the tech landscape for giants like Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and more. *Hashtags:* #AIEra #TechStocks #MarketMondays #Apple #Google #Microsoft #Innovation #Investing #TimCook #AIInvesting #TechTalk #SoftwareStocks #FutureOfAI #ServiceNow #SAP #Intuit #Amazon #MetaSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this revealing Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings dive deep into the unprecedented Justice Department investigation into Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at the direction of Donald Trump. With the market watching closely, the trio explores how politicizing the Fed could threaten its longstanding autonomy and set a dangerous precedent for America’s financial stability. Rashad highlights the seriousness of the Fed potentially losing its independence and becoming subject to presidential influence, emphasizing that Trump is not a traditional president and is aggressively consolidating power. Ian points out that the way Trump operates—allegedly using punitive measures against those who don’t comply—mirrors tactics seen in less democratic governments, raising alarms about the long-term impact on the economy and markets. Troy provides insight into Powell’s actual record, noting that Powell led the charge on recent interest rate cuts and managed the pandemic recovery strategically, yet is now facing political retaliation for not moving quickly enough to meet presidential demands. The hosts analyze how Powell's possible indictment—something never before seen in American history—may undermine confidence in future Fed chairs, making them vulnerable to political pressure instead of focusing on serving the public good. They also examine how this move fits into the larger context of Project 2025, designed to consolidate executive power across U.S. institutions. From the recent resilience of the stock market despite political turmoil, to the deeper questions about democracy, legacy, and financial policy, this discussion unpacks the real risks investors and citizens face when the independence of critical economic institutions is threatened. Will these actions cause a market crash or a slow erosion of trust in America’s financial system? Is this the beginning of long-term instability or just another political skirmish? Don’t miss this essential conversation for anyone concerned about the intersection of politics, economics, and market moves. *Timestamps:* Trump’s DOJ investigates Fed Chair Jerome Powell Why Fed independence matters Will this impact the stock market and economy?

In this Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings deliver an in-depth discussion about the mounting geopolitical tensions surrounding Taiwan, focusing on the global importance of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSMC). The conversation examines whether China is likely to attempt a takeover of Taiwan this year, the potential repercussions for the world's tech economy, and the strategic stakes behind semiconductor manufacturing. Troy Millings and Rashad Bilal break down how TSMC stands at the center of the AI and tech revolution, responsible for manufacturing a staggering 90% of the world’s advanced semiconductors. With both U.S. GDP and leading tech giants—Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Meta—heavily reliant on Taiwan’s chips, any threat to TSMC not only jeopardizes global technological progress but could also trigger economic catastrophe. The clip highlights the unlikely scenario of immediate conflict but acknowledges espionage attempts, corporate “kill switch” defenses, and China’s longstanding desire to reunify with Taiwan—all of which add layers to this complex global standoff. Rashad Bilal emphasizes the strategic moves of U.S. investment in semiconductor fabs, aiming to reduce dependency and avoid the risks tied to the hyperconcentration of tech stocks. The duo also exposes the shifting market landscape, noting that just 10 stocks now comprise 35% of the U.S. market’s value—a level of concentration unseen in decades. Subtle references to historical missteps, espionage cases, and “war games” scenarios give viewers a gripping understanding of the stakes at play. Troy Millings and Rashad Bilal invite questions about everything from global manufacturing trends to the realities of modern warfare and economic security. Whether you’re an investor, tech enthusiast, or someone keeping tabs on world events, this is a must-watch analysis showing how one company, one country, and one conflict could reshape the future of the global economy. *Hashtags:* #Taiwan #China #TSMC #Semiconductors #TechStocks #MarketMondays #Geopolitics #Investing #AI #Nvidia #Apple #Microsoft #Meta #Hyperconcentration #USMarket #GlobalEconomy #WarGames #FinancialNews #StockMarketSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ian Dunlap identifies major players in the oil industry—Schlumberger, Chevron, ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, Halliburton, Baker Hughes—and key ETFs like XLE and ITA that are at the center of this fast-moving trade. The conversation explores how these companies and investments could be affected, but also raises the big question: how long will this oil trade remain relevant given the volatility in Venezuela? Rashad Bilal highlights the complexity of Venezuela’s oil situation, noting its thick crude oil and refining challenges, compounded by years of sanctions. The clip uncovers how U.S. interests may be less about regime change and more about friendly extortion and strategic alignment, drawing parallels to historic situations in Iraq and Libya but also pointing out important differences. This is not just a discussion about profit and trades—it’s a candid look at the moral dilemmas facing investors. Is it right to invest in sectors benefitting from international turmoil? Rashad Bilal reflects on how many Venezuelans accept U.S. involvement for a chance at a better future, underlining that the story isn’t black or white.

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

Get ready for an honest, no-nonsense look at the future of the financial markets! In this insightful Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings break down what’s on the horizon for 2026 and beyond—and how you can put yourself in the best position to benefit. Ian Dunlap sets the tone by predicting a tumultuous year ahead but with a positive ending in 2026, urging viewers to focus on *asset accumulation*. Whether you believe in Bitcoin, Microstrategy, index funds, or even dreaming about SpaceX, now is the time to become an “asset hoarder.” The key message? Deploy your capital into assets with conviction rather than waiting for the perfect moment! Troy Millings adds optimism, emphasizing major “catalyst events” like continued spending from tech giants such as Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, and Google. According to Troy, deregulation in AI and infrastructure spending will be a key theme, helping both technology and financial sectors. He predicts further gains for the S&P 500 and highlights that although volatility and possible downturns may appear towards the end of the year, the outlook remains strong—especially for those who stay focused, prepared, and ready to buy during market pullbacks. The trio also discusses the importance of focusing on decade-long investment horizons versus getting caught up in short-term fluctuations. The lesson is clear: building real, generational wealth requires patience and the discipline to invest, even when the market looks shaky. You’ll also hear sharp insights into the risks of market gatekeeping, venture capital exclusivity, and the power of preparation—plus why every downturn is actually a buying opportunity for the informed investor. *Key takeaways from this Market Mondays clip:* 2026 will likely bring volatility and possibly a market free fall, but long-term winners will use it as an accumulation year. Focus on building your portfolio with quality assets—don’t waste time waiting for perfect conditions. Expect increased spending in tech and infrastructure, deregulation benefits (especially in AI), and more tailwinds for growth. Don’t get distracted by crash predictions—stay focused on a 10-year investment plan. Downturns are opportunities for those who are prepared with cash and a strategy. Whether you’re new to investing or a seasoned market participant, these insights will help you ride out the coming turbulence and come out stronger.

Responding to a listener question, they break down who should be on your tip list during the holiday season, how much you should give, and why showing appreciation to those who make your life easier is essential. Rashad shares common scenarios, highlighting everyone from sanitation workers, teachers, and valets, to barbers, school bus drivers, and even your building’s concierge. Ian provides real-life examples from his own life, pointing out the value of tipping your cleaning crew, building staff, and even the mailman. The duo discusses the nuances of tipping based on the service received, relationships built over the year, and the importance of recognizing excellent customer service. They also tackle those awkward gray areas: Is it necessary to tip your child’s high school teacher, or does it stop at preschool? What if the service was subpar? Both hosts agree that monetary gifts should go hand-in-hand with outstanding service and positive energy—but getting the etiquette right can sometimes confuse even the most well-meaning among us. Whether you live in a home or apartment, rely on daily or weekly help, or simply want to ensure you’re not missing an important gesture, this clip is packed with practical tips, etiquette reminders, and candid stories about why tipping matters—not just for gratitude, but for better service in the future.

In this insightful clip from Market Mondays, hosts Rashad Bilal and Ian Dunlap dive into one of the most important lessons for traders and investors: the dangers of chasing fast wins and why true wealth is built with discipline and patience. Ian shares his futures trading tip of the week, reflecting on lessons from the recent trading tournament and highlighting the importance of letting trades “breathe” and strategically planning entries on volatile market days like when Powell speaks or economic reports drop. Rashad and Ian also explore the blurred lines between trading and sports wagering, referencing Robinhood’s innovative approach and how more traders are entering the world of in-game contract trading. The conversation turns critical as they unpack mistakes young investors often make—especially when trying to score fast gains in meme stocks or speculative sectors like NFTs. Ian warns that while hitting a quick win may seem rewarding, it often breeds poor discipline and risky habits, with most quick successes not repeating themselves in the markets. Rashad reinforces the pitfalls of following hype or hearsay without understanding companies or their industries, and both stress why relying on others for entry and exit signals is dangerous. Drawing on Warren Buffett’s philosophy, Rashad recalls a conversation with Jeff Bezos about the power of getting “rich slow”—and why this tried and true method remains unpopular despite its proven results. The key takeaway? While chasing overnight success is tempting, patience, discipline, and a solid plan will always outperform reckless speculation in the long run. *Key points in this clip:* Why you must let your trades breathe and use longer targets strategically How sports wagering platforms like Robinhood are attracting futures traders The biggest mistakes young investors make, from chasing meme stocks to lack of market discipline Why fast money often leads to long-term losses The timeless wisdom of building wealth slowly instead of seeking quick wins *Learn practical wisdom from Rashad Bilal and Ian Dunlap on becoming a smarter, more disciplined investor—because sometimes the slow road is the fastest way to lasting wealth.* #MarketMondays #TradingTips #Investing #WealthBuilding #IanDunlap #RashadBilal #StockMarket #FuturesTrading #Robinhood #Discipline #FinancialFreedom #GetRichSlow #MemeStocks #NFTs #LongTermInvesting #SportsWageringSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal, Troy Millings, and Ian Dunlap break down the hottest crypto-related stocks and ETFs in today's market. The team dives deep into the strengths and weaknesses of Coinbase, IBIT (iShares Bitcoin Trust), and MicroStrategy—three major ways investors can get exposure to cryptocurrency through the stock market. Rashad starts the conversation by identifying each asset: Coinbase is the go-to platform for buying cryptocurrency, IBIT follows the price of Bitcoin as an ETF (backed by industry giant BlackRock), and MicroStrategy is a company that’s become synonymous with Bitcoin holdings—practically turning into a Bitcoin treasury. Ian highlights the importance of analyzing risk versus reward. He points out that while MicroStrategy once claimed the top spot due to its bold Bitcoin accumulation, current threats and volatility push it to the bottom of his ranking. Coinbase, with its strong leadership and lower perceived risk, gets his vote for number one. IBIT sits in the middle—reliable, but not quite on the same level as investment giants like Vanguard or BlackRock. Rashad pushes back, arguing IBIT deserves the top spot. He stresses the unprecedented security of a product backed by BlackRock, the largest asset manager ever. In his view, if you really believe in Bitcoin’s growth potential, IBIT offers the purest 1:1 exposure, removing the variables that platforms like Coinbase face during earnings reports or market downturns. Troy shares his perspective, agreeing IBIT is the best option for investors wanting direct bitcoin exposure. He explains that owning IBIT is not exactly the same as holding Bitcoin yourself, but it provides a simple route to gain exposure through a fund structure. Coinbase, meanwhile, earns revenue from transaction and subscription fees, making it a strong but somewhat cyclical contender. The trio concludes by ranking the three: IBIT first for its direct and secure Bitcoin exposure, Coinbase second for its business model, and MicroStrategy third due to its current risk factors. Throughout, they also briefly address their broader crypto confidence, with Rashad sharing that Bitcoin and Ethereum are the only coins he’s truly bullish on for the long term. If you're wondering how to get started with crypto investing—or want to understand which publicly traded options might suit your strategy—this clip is packed with insights, debates, and expert perspectives. *Hashtags:* #CryptoStocks #Coinbase #MicroStrategy #IBIT #BitcoinETF #MarketMondays #Investing #CryptoInvesting #StockMarket #BlackRock #BitcoinSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They share how they met, landed their first customers, and built their first product without deep technical skills — including why they gave Squire away for three years before ever charging. The conversation dives into the realities of fundraising, from relying on angel investors to survive, taking 60 meetings to secure one VC, and how an $8 million Series A helped unlock massive growth. Songe and Dave also explain the role Y Combinator played, the strings attached to outside capital, ownership dilution, and what investors truly expect when they invest. We also explore how Squire scaled to 32,000 barbers and 10 million customers, what their $750M valuation actually means, and the challenges of being two Black founders raising capital.

In this Market Mondays clip, Ian Dunlap and Troy Millings dive into Oracle’s latest stock pullback and tackle the burning question: Is now the right time to buy Oracle shares? The conversation breaks down everything investors need to know—including the timing of Oracle’s cloud profitability, the challenges of CAPEX spending, and the shift in market sentiment. Ian Dunlap emphasizes patience, advising investors to wait until Oracle dips closer to $160 before considering an entry point. He highlights how the overall market environment has shifted, urging viewers not to expect every tech company to produce Nvidia-like returns. Troy Millings adds depth by dissecting the nature of cloud profitability, noting that significant returns are often “future dated”—it took Amazon and Google years to generate meaningful profits in their cloud divisions. He draws comparisons to Microsoft’s Azure, explaining that Oracle is following a proven path, even as it faces margin pressure and intense scrutiny. The duo also unpacks Oracle’s position as the fourth-largest cloud provider in the U.S., the spike in credit default swaps, and the impact of negative sentiment as the company’s massive investments raise eyebrows. Troy discusses how Oracle’s evolution—from enterprise software to subscriptions, to AI, and now cloud services—shows resilience, but also warns that market and government connections (like those with Larry Ellison) play a significant role in Oracle’s prospects. For anyone trying to navigate the choppy waters of tech stocks, this analysis offers historical insight, practical entry strategies, and candid takes on where Oracle might be heading next.

Welcome to another insightful Market Mondays clip! In this dynamic conversation, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings dive deep into Elon Musk's approach to investing and building wealth, discussing why the world's richest person chooses to focus on his own companies instead of diversifying into the stock market.

In this Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal and Ian Dunlap dive deep into the recent struggles of Novo Nordisk and explain why the stock’s steep drop isn’t an opportunity to buy. They break down Novo’s missed Alzheimer’s drug, compare Novo's margins and performance to Eli Lilly, and discuss the key issues behind GLP-1 drugs that have led to Novo’s downfall. Rashad Bilal likens the Novo-Lilly rivalry to Meta vs. Snap, highlighting that Novo simply doesn’t have Lily’s innovation or executive management. With Novo giving up nearly 75% of its gains and falling back to pre-2021 levels, the hosts consider the company’s future and why Lily is “the Nvidia of healthcare”—an industry monster that’s hard to defeat. Ian Dunlap adds insight into the pharmaceutical business cycle, the challenges of non-American firms in a US-centric market, and why breakthroughs in pill-form GLP drugs and healthcare plan adoption give Lily the edge. Together, they explore why weight loss drugs may not provide sustainable growth for Novo and why savvy investors should be cautious. If you want an unfiltered, expert take on the pharma giants and what’s ahead for GLP-1 drug makers, watch this clip for real insights you won’t find anywhere else. *Hashtags:* #MarketMondays #NovoNordisk #EliLilly #PharmaStocks #Investing #WeightLossDrugs #GLP1 #HealthcareInvesting #StockMarketAnalysis #RashadBilal #IanDunlapSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this Market Mondays clip, Ian Dunlap and Troy Millings dissect the AI stock landscape—focusing on Meta’s stunning turnaround, CoreWeave’s risk profile, and the heated debate on Palantir’s sky-high valuation. Troy shares why Meta is a “buy” for him following its recent dip, praising Mark Zuckerberg’s aggressive CapEx strategy and commitment to AI innovation—including the success of Meta’s wearable glasses and major data center expansion. Ian, once skeptical of Meta’s Metaverse investments, highlights how Zuckerberg’s recent investments are landing at the right time—contrasting this with Apple’s more reserved approach and arguing Zuckerberg may have outperformed Tim Cook in 2023. The conversation shifts to CoreWeave, where Troy identifies concerns over debt levels and depreciating assets as the company expands its data centers. He notes that although CoreWeave’s partnership with Nvidia is promising, relying on lower-tier GPUs and significant borrowing could hamper long-term prospects. Both agree that after the IPO lockup period, many investors wisely took profits as the stock pulled back dramatically. When it comes to Palantir, Ian and Troy spar over its mammoth valuation. Ian recognizes Alex Karp’s capable leadership but points out that Palantir’s forward P/E of 185 is far too high, even suggesting its fair value would be in the $21-$30 range rather than its recent peaks. Troy echoes concerns about revenue matching expectations, labeling Palantir as the “poster child” for inflated AI stock valuations, driven by its global government contracts and status as a defense-tech leader. Whether you’re looking for sharp opinions on big tech moves or cautionary tales from the AI investment craze, this clip delivers invaluable insights for navigating today’s volatile stock market. *Timestamps:* 00:00 — Meta’s AI comeback and investment strategy 02:29 — CoreWeave’s debt dilemma and Nvidia connection 05:44 — Palantir’s valuation and market risks *Join the discussion in the comments below!
