Thank you to everyone who joined our live event last night—Crypto 2024: After the Halving—where I shared how to position yourself for outsized returns in crypto over the next 18 months.

We’re about halfway through earnings season… and so far, the results have been disastrous. I highlight some dismal numbers and dreary guidance from several companies, including Starbucks (SBUX)... Paramount (PARA)... McDonald’s (MCD)... Comcast (CMCSA)... CVS (CVS)... and more.

But it’s not all bad news…

I go through some incredible results from Big Tech… and why Amazon’s (AMZN) pullback is the best sign investors could ask for.

As a final note, don’t miss tomorrow’s episode of WSU Premium, where I interview Andrew Horowitz, host of The Disciplined Investor, about the Fed's biggest mistake… where to be invested right now… how AI will impact the markets… and more.

Tesla (TSLA) reported its latest earnings yesterday… and the results were terrible.

So why is the stock soaring today?

I start today’s show by looking under the hood at the difficulties Tesla faces—from lower EV demand… to high costs… to Chinese competition…

And I highlight the single most important factor that continues to buoy the stock and ultimately makes Tesla a winner—regardless of headwinds.

Gold stocks have been on a rollercoaster recently—the yellow metal hit new all-time highs this month before pulling back. I explain what’s behind the action… why gold bugs are dead wrong about their thesis, despite the rise in price… why I’d take profits in gold and gold stocks right now… and why Bitcoin is a much better bet. In fact, I believe crypto offers the best speculative opportunity for investors right now.

Make sure to join us for part 3 of our Crypto 2024 LIVE series, After the Halving, on April 30 at 7 p.m. ET. I’ll break down how to position your portfolio for life-changing gains in the crypto space… and answer all your crypto questions. Save your spot—and send me your questions—here.

The next Bitcoin halving is right around the corner… This event has historically been super bullish for crypto. Yet, Bitcoin is trading significantly off its all-time high of just two months ago. In fact, it’s down 12% in the last week alone. The pullback has investors wondering what the hell is going on with crypto…

I start today’s show by explaining why the pullback isn’t nearly as alarming as it seems… and why the halving will ultimately drive Bitcoin’s price higher.

I’m hosting my next Crypto 2024 LIVE event on April 30 at 7 p.m. ET—where I’ll break down the current crypto environment… and how to position yourself to make life-changing gains in the space. I’ll end the event with a Q&A, where I’ll answer your most pressing questions about crypto.

During her CNBC appearance yesterday, U.S. Representative Maxine Waters (D) said she believes big banks are at risk. (She also took some easy shots at Donald Trump.) I highlight why Waters’ statement on banks is absolutely crazy. Plus, I give an overview of the criminal proceedings against Trump… and why he should still be permitted to campaign.

J.B. Hunt (JBHT) just reported quarterly earnings… And the numbers paint an alarming picture of the economy. I break down why you should absolutely care about these results—even if you don’t own the stock. I also explain why you should expect a ton of volatility this week as more companies report—and why I’m worried about the coming guidance.
