You’d be crazy to count on a rate cut

My family and I are back from our Thanksgiving vacation in the Dominican Republic. We had a fantastic time—except for the travel. Prepare for a rant on budget airlines… why I’ll never fly Spirit again… and a tangent about how the Department of Justice fights every merger (including the Spirit/JetBlue deal).   The markets are on a four-week winning streak as economic data shows inflation is easing and investors are looking ahead to interest rate cuts next year. I explain why it’s crazy to expect a cut anytime soon… how the Fed is actually undermining its own fight against inflation… and why the market is still incredibly dangerous.   I also highlight the three factors investors should look for to spot companies poised to survive—and thrive—in the crazy environment ahead.   Speaking of which, I just recommended a small-cap stock in Curzio Venture Opportunities that checks all three boxes. It’s fallen about 25% recently because of two risks that no longer exist… and insiders are buying it hand over fist. Join us today to get the recommendation.   General Motors (GM) made headlines today by announcing a $10 billion buyback and a massive dividend increase. I continue to pound the table on how a buyback-focused strategy can beat the market… and why only the strongest companies can pull it off.   Tomorrow on WSU Premium, Daniel and I will discuss the strategy in more detail… and share a list of stocks executing on it. [For a limited time try WSU Premium for $1 by subscribing at WSUOffer.com.]   As a final note, I want to pay my respects to investing legend Charlie Munger, who passed away yesterday at the age of 99. I’m looking forward to CNBC’s final interview with him, which will be released soon.   In this episode There’s no such thing as a “discounted airline” [2:05] The seasonal rally is alive and well [12:45] Why the Fed isn’t cutting rates anytime soon [16:10] This is one of the most dangerous markets ever [23:05] How to get my latest small-cap recommendation [29:30] GM announces a massive buyback [33:00] Don’t miss tomorrow’s WSU Premium [46:45] R.I.P.

Why this uranium bull market is unlike any other in history

In this special episode of WSU Premium, Amir Adnani, co-founder and CEO of Uranium Energy Corp. (UEC), joins me for a wide-ranging interview on the developing uranium bull market.   We start by looking at uranium prices, which have surged nearly 50% in 2023 after a two-decade bear market. Amir breaks down the catalysts setting the stage for a bull market unlike any other in history—including the government’s new push to triple nuclear power by 2050… and the Russia-Ukraine war.   Amir also shares how UEC took advantage of the bear market… and how it plans to move forward—including ramping up production… the company’s newly acquired Roughrider Project… and why it’s in the perfect position to benefit as uranium prices soar over the next few years.   In this episode Uranium is finally emerging from a brutal bear market [0:30] The U.S. just “tripled down” on nuclear power [5:40] Major global catalysts for the nuclear industry [7:25] Russia remains king in uranium… for now [13:40] UEC is poised to reap the rewards of the bull market [23:45] Uranium prices could easily double from current levels [39:00] Why this uranium bull market has a LONG runway [52:36]   Today’s interview with Amir is a preview of what you get as a WSU Premium member. Each week, Frank shares a no-B.S., unbiased breakdown of what’s really moving these markets—stories you won’t hear from the mainstream media. Plus, you’ll get unique investing strategies, weekly investment ideas, and special interviews with industry insiders like Amir.  Try WSU Premium for $1: WSUOffer.com   Enjoyed this episode?

Inflation is slowing… But don’t get too bullish yet

What a difference a few days makes. The mainstream media has turned from bearish to ultra-bullish—and stocks have surged—as the latest data shows inflation slowing.   And, as I explained in last week’s WSU Premium, several stocks could soar to new highs by year-end as money managers try to catch up to their benchmarks.   But while markets will likely continue to rise, don’t get too bullish yet… The economy is still facing major headwinds in 2024. I explain why this rally will be short-lived.   Target (TGT) is rallying after earnings came in better than expected. Even after the recent surge, the stock is still cheap at current levels. I break down the company’s latest results… and why we’ll never see its shares trade below $100 again.   Be on the lookout next week: I’ll be sending you a special interview with Amir Adnani, president, CEO, and founder of Uranium Energy Corp. (UEC). You won’t want to miss our wide-ranging discussion on the new bull market in uranium… and why it’s likely to last for many years.   In this episode The market’s sudden shift to ultra-bullish [3:28] Don’t miss next week’s interview with Amir Adnani [9:45] Enjoy the rally—it won’t last long [19:15] TGT just put in its "forever" low [35:55]   Enjoyed this episode?

These stocks will surge through year-end

Both of my daughters participate in organized sports… And as fellow sports parents know, our schedules can get a little hectic. I joke about how crazy our lives are right now… but why I wouldn’t change a minute of it.   Stocks are in rally mode. The S&P 500 is up 6% over the last seven trading sessions… while the Nasdaq is up 8% over eight trading sessions. I break down what’s behind the surge… and why it’s a little crazy given the environment and the Fed’s current agenda.   Speaking of the Fed, I highlight how the central bank’s reckless policies created inflation… and why no one saw it coming.   Next, I explain why the best-performing stocks will keep surging through the end of the year… while underperforming stocks will continue to lag (hint: it has nothing to do with fundamentals). This leads me to a rant on how the big asset managers f*** over individual investors.   On tomorrow’s episode of WSU Premium, I’ll share around 50 names that I expect to climb as we head into the end of 2023. Don’t miss it—Subscribe to the premium podcast at WSUOffer.com.   In this episode The hectic life of a sports parent [0:30] It’s wild that markets are in rally mode [4:40] How the Fed created inflation [7:30] Why the best-performing stocks will keep surging [17:05] How Wall Street f***s over the little guy [19:00] Get my list of 50 stocks that will continue to new highs [28:10] Subscribe to the premium podcast at WSUOffer.com.

This $16 trillion opportunity is just getting started

I start today’s show by recapping my family’s awesome Halloween.   By the time you get this episode, we’ll know the results of the Fed’s latest monetary policy meeting. I share my expectations about future rate hikes… and explain why the market is finally starting to believe the Fed.   Quarterly earnings results are rolling in… and so far, they’ve been terrible. I highlight several companies getting crushed by higher interest rates… and a handful of names that have more upside as rates stay higher for longer.   Next, I share the one asset investors should be buying as we face an economic downturn. Plus, I highlight a market that’s set to grow to $16 trillion by 2030—from virtually nothing today.   Investors face a ton of pain ahead… and I want to help you through as much of it as possible.

Prep for a recession with these assets

For over 10 years, my family and I have been attending a local fair here in northeast Florida. Usually it’s packed—but not this year. I highlight the terrible experience… and what it says about the economy.   Speaking of the economy, I explain what Fed Chair Jerome Powell got wrong about inflation… and why we must prepare for a recession.   We’ll see earnings growth from two sectors… but it will mean even more pain to the economy (and consumers).   But don’t let the negative news scare you out of the markets—the market volatility will create amazing risk/reward opportunities going forward. I share a few assets you should have exposure to right now.   Don’t miss tomorrow’s WSU Premium. Daniel and I will discuss the opportunity in small-cap stocks… and share our latest pick.    In this episode What my fair experience says about the economy [0:30] Prepare for a recession [8:20] What Powell got wrong about inflation [15:15] Growth in these 2 sectors = more pain ahead [21:15] Diversify with this inflation hedge[26:40] Don’t miss tomorrow’s WSU Premium [35:25]   Looking to diversify your portfolio as inflation becomes the new normal?   Contemporary art has a history of strong appreciation during high inflation periods—like right now.   Masterworks’ innovative platform makes starting a fine art collection attainable for anyone.   Here’s how:   Enjoyed this episode?

The biggest trend of my lifetime

I’m back in the office after attending a major industry conference for the financial newsletter business.   I start today’s show by recapping some of the biggest moments from the event—including my pitch about tokenization. I share why the buzz is building around this trend… why it’s a win-win for investors and businesses alike… and why it’s set to be the biggest trend of my lifetime. (And behemoth asset manager BlackRock agrees.)   Plus, I explain the advice I gave my colleagues about podcasting—and why they shouldn’t do it.   Next, I highlight several factors weighing on the market right now—including higher interest rates… some ugly data on housing starts… and investor sentiment turning bearish. But despite these risks, I share why we could see a pop in the market.   As Q3 earnings roll in, I break down what investors should be watching for… and how higher oil prices and interest rates could impact next quarter’s results.   Don’t miss tomorrow’s WSU Premium, where Daniel and I will discuss big banks… oil stocks… and a new Dollar Stock Club pick to play rising commodity prices.   In this episode Tokenization is the biggest trend of my lifetime [2:30] Why podcasting isn’t for everyone [16:13] Why stocks could rally, despite the growing risks [28:20] The most important numbers this earnings season [31:20] Don’t miss tomorrow’s WSU Premium [36:20]   Enjoyed this episode?

The perfect recipe for higher energy prices

Frank is on the road for business for the week, so I, Daniel, am leading the show today.   I kick things off with a recap of my road trip to Ohio… including some good news about how our tax dollars are being spent. (I swear I’m not being sarcastic.)   Stocks are rallying even as war is breaking out in the Middle East. It’s a great example of how markets and reality can be vastly different. I explain why this bounce could continue through the end of the year.   As expected, oil prices popped in response to the violence. Regular listeners know I’ve been bullish on energy for many months. I explain why the current environment creates major tailwinds for oil prices… why every investor should have exposure to energy stocks… and how the war impacts my thesis.   Next, I break down today’s Producer Price Index (PPI)… highlight the one data point to focus on in tomorrow’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) report (hint: it’s all about energy prices)... and explain why the numbers could force the Fed to raise rates even more.   I also explain why hedge fund titan Bill Ackman has a bone to pick with Harvard… and why it’s the latest sign of the growing division in our nation.   Don’t miss tomorrow’s episode of WSU Premium. I’ll dig deeper into the energy sector… highlight the opportunities developing in consumer staples stocks… and reveal this week’s Dollar Stock Club pick.    In this episode Proof that your tax dollars are working hard [1:35] Why this market rally could continue (despite the war) [9:15] A recipe for higher energy prices [19:20] The only inflation number that matters right now [23:10] Bill Ackman has a bone to pick with Harvard [25:45]   Enjoyed this episode?

McCarthy’s ousting will draw out the selloff

I just returned from a business trip to Miami… and start today’s show with a rant about how consumers are getting “fee’d” to death.   Stocks are selling off as investors digest higher-for-longer interest rates and lingering inflation. And I see way more downside ahead…   I share some data on the impact of student loan payments, which have resumed after a three-year pause. I also highlight the biggest headwind for the economy (hint: it’s a rising cost that none of us can escape).   I’ve been pounding the table on how this is one of the most dangerous markets I’ve ever seen… Despite the fastest pace of rate hikes in history, some of the riskiest stocks have been surging. But this irrational bull run is coming to an end. I explain why the Fed won’t be able to pull off a soft landing… and why we should brace for more pain throughout the housing sector, community banks, and consumer spending.   Shockwaves are rippling across the political aisle as House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R) was ousted this week. I explain how this changes my thesis on ridiculous government spending… and why it will lead to a long, drawn-out selloff in stocks.   But that doesn't mean you should sell everything and move to cash. Tomorrow on WSU Premium, I’ll share exactly how to position yourself for this market—including a new Dollar Stock Club pick… from a sector I’ve never recommended before in my entire career. Access the premium podcast at WSUOffer.com.   In this episode We’re getting “fee’d” to death [0:30] What's behind the market selloff? [7:30] Consumers can’t escape this rising cost [10:45] Why this irrational bull run is ending [20:35] Why McCarthy’s ousting will trigger more declines [28:25] Don’t miss tomorrow’s WSU Premium [40:20]   Enjoyed this episode?
