What crypto needs to fix to become the currency of the future

If crypto is ever going to be widely adopted, it needs a makeover.In this episode of Stocks in Translation, Markets and Data Editor Jared Blikre and Producer Sydnee Fried are joined by Keith Bliss, founder and CEO of Blox, a crypto brokerage firm.Today's focus is the crypto world and its major roadblock: debanking—also the word of the day. As Blikre explains, debanking is the act of denying or revoking banking services to an individual, business, or entire industry.Debanking primarily affects cash-handling businesses and those involved in digital assets, such as cryptocurrencies.“Debanking is real. It needs to stop,” Bliss asserts. “The only way that new technologies and innovation will be allowed to flourish is if the banks are allowed to provide service, uh, to those companies.”Find this episode's transcripts and more episodes of Stocks in Translation at https://finance.yahoo.com/videos/series/stocks-in-translation/Thoughts?

One trait every good trader has

Every investor wants to make smart decisions, but if investing were easy, no one would ever take a loss.In this episode of Stocks in Translation, Markets and Data Editor Jared Blikre and Producer Sydnee Fried are joined by Nick Colas, co-founder of DataTrek Research.Colas, who has spent most of his career in institutional investing, agrees that professional investors have more information than retail investors. But he argues that the real distinction between “smart money” and “dumb money” isn’t just access to information. “It’s the process by which you make decisions,” he says.Recalling his time at SAC Capital under Mets owner Steve Cohen, Colas shares how he met weekly with an in-house psychologist to discuss his mental and emotional state when executing trades.Colas soon realized the purpose of these check-ins.“What he was trying to get us to understand was, past a certain level of knowledge, your intuition's very powerful, and that intuition is really your secret sauce. It is what makes you a good versus bad trader. It isn't just what you know, it's how you execute on it. And it's that process that makes for great investors,” he explains.Yahoo Finance's Stocks in Translation, with master statistician Jared Blikre and voice of the people Sydnee Fried, is your guide with essential conversation cutting through the market mayhem, noisy numbers and hyperbole to give you the information you need to make the right trade for your portfolio. Find this episode's transcripts and more episodes of Stocks in Translation at https://finance.yahoo.com/videos/series/stocks-in-translation/Thoughts?

One sector that stands to gain the most from Trump's tariffs

The market has been on a bit of a rollercoaster ride since President Trump announced tariffs.Caleb Silver, Investopedia's editor-in-chief, joins Markets and Data Editor Jared Blikre and Producer Sydnee Fried on Stocks in Translation to discuss market expectations for 2025 under President Trump and the sectors poised to benefit the most.The market has started 2025 on an “optimistic” note. “The closer you are to the president, the more you're [going to] see a rally in your sector,” Silver explains. “Sentiment is very positive right now. The question is, what's on the other side of this positive sentiment?"Fittingly, today's phrase is policy uncertainty—a term many pundits associate with President Trump’s administration. Blikre defines it as “the unpredictability of government actions like taxes, regulations, or trade rules that can impact business decisions, economic growth, and investor confidence in markets.”However, Silver warns that overanalyzing can be costly. “If you get too muddled up in what's going to happen, you're going to miss the action. And the action has been very intense across investors' favorite parts of the market,” he says.Find this episode's transcripts and more episodes of Stocks in Translation at https://finance.yahoo.com/videos/series/stocks-in-translation/Thoughts?

A day trader's advice for navigating risk and volatility

There’s never been a trade that didn’t involve risk.In this episode of Stock in Translations, Kenny Glick, owner of HitTheBid.com, joins Yahoo Finance markets and data editor Jared Blikre and Producer Sydnee Fried to discuss risk, volatility, and reward.Glick, who makes his living trading options, is no stranger to the risks of day trading. He thrives on volatility, even though it’s inherently risky.One of his tools for navigating this risk is UVXY (UVXY), a derivative of the VIX (^VIX)—the 30-day outlook on S&P 500 volatility.“UVXY is a product that's basically built to go down, and it tries to reflect the fear of the day,” says Glick. “So as a day trader, especially for the shorters… if UVXY shows any kinds of strength, you know that the sellers are out there. And my God, if it's actually trending higher, UVXY, you know, the market's in trouble.”Find this episode's transcripts and more episodes of Stocks in Translation at https://finance.yahoo.com/videos/series/stocks-in-translation/Thoughts?
