Enrique Abeyta of HX Research rejoins the podcast to discuss his (constructive) views on the stock market, why commercial real estate concerns are overdone, and to provide one stock pick -- and it's not Nvidia, though he does discuss that at some length.
Some mature language is used at a few points. Sensitive listeners should be advised.
The guest's microphone setup is significantly better than the host's so don't get discouraged by the host sounding like he's hiding in a cave at the open.
Content Highlights
- Trends are underrated. Many investors don't respect them or understand what they mean. The current trend is clearly long-term bullish for stocks (2:21);
- However over the short term there could (probably will) be a pull back -- as appears to be happening the week after recording (5:24);
- On the whole, however, the outlook is very constructive. So constructive that the guest has only seen this clarity 10 times or less in his 30-year career (12:30);
- When it comes to the Federal Reserve, there is a strong possibility interest rate policy stays roughly the same... (15:36);
- Contrarian take: there's no need to worry about commercial real estate: (19:00);
- Regional banks presented an opportunity a year ago. New York Community Bancorp (NYCB) is not an opportunity now (23:54);
- Views on Nvidia (NVDA): not super constructive (28:20);
- One long term idea: Independent power producer Talen Energy (TLNE), owner of a nuclear power plant. The company recently emerged from bankruptcy (34:51).
