Wall Street Wildlife Investing Podcast

$AAPL Not every great company makes a great investment. What are the reasons to think #Apple will provide market-beating returns from its current market cap of nearly 3 TRILLION? Monkey -- a life-long Apple believer, and Badger, a life-long Apple naysayer, duke it out. 1) #VisionPro: Apple can create new categories 2) #ArtificialInteligence: Apple won't sit on the sidelines BUT: 3) How many people with a new iPhone -- that works stupendously well -- will keep upgrading at $1,500 a pop?

Jungle investing life is unpredictable, but your hosts Luke “The Badger” Hallard and Krzysztof “Monkey” Piekarski, Lead Advisors at www.7investing.com are feeling especially clairvoyant this year. 🔮 Gather ‘round, wallstreetwildlife friends and furry critters, pour some warm libations— perhaps a banana flavored brandy?— and hear about all the things that have yet come to pass. We predict the future regarding interest rates, black swans, tech booms and busts, Bitcoin price at year-end, the tech companies with the most moment and those who might have climbed a branch too high. Warning: Badger drank too much egg-nog before recording, so his outlook gets a bit dark at times, even out-Bearing resident Bear-Monkey!

Badger puts a cool $100 to good use by investing in shares of Axon Enterprise $AXON. It’s a great company with a seriously good ethical backbone — Monkey supports the cause but questions whether it’s the right time to buy given the gnarly macro backdrop. Monkey meanwhile adds even more to his Coherus Biosciences $CHRS position, but this time using the 5/17/24 Call options. He explains why, despite 90% of options expiring worthless, he chose this vehicle instead of buying more shares outright. “Strap on your theta dildo and start pounding” might sound like you’ve walked into the wrong room in a 70s seedy Times Square joint, but Monkey explains what this means in terms of options losing value and how you can take steps to avoid getting pounded, and not in the good way. The Owl’s Nest brings us an unfortunate story of a good man getting scammed. Badger interviews his friend who lost too much money falling for a playbook that takes advantage of our human desire for lots of wealth quickly. Monkey admits to first-pawed experience with Greed as one of the most rotten bananas in the investing bunch and how investors can set themselves up to avoid nasty jungle predators.

With Santa Claus about to make his annual chimney stops, Badger and Monkey look at their portfolios to determine whether they’ve been naughty or nice. Spoiler alert: Monkey’s ass is red for good reason! Playing the role of the Bear 🐻 for the first time in his investing career, the Santa Claus rally in the markets is making noble Monkey feel more like a baboon than a seasoned investor. Badger, meanwhile, is sleeping well at night, with gold coins coming out of his ears. Will his confidence last for the rest of the year? Together, Monkey and Badger take a step back from the big upswing in the markets asking whether they have truly made any brilliant decisions or egregious mistakes. Meanwhile, Monkey confesses to selling Crowdstrike in his real-world portfolio to increase his cash position ahead of his Doom and Gloom prognostications, eliciting a timeless reaction from Badger! We also discuss the massive year-in-review project for 7investing.com and our goal to double down on the highest-quality companies in the land that we can find. $CRWD $MELI $KRE $RLAY $CHRS You can find more episodes of the podcast at wallstreetwildlife.com, and you can follow us at: https://twitter.com/7LukeHallard https://twitter.com/7FlyingPlatypus Wall Street Wildlife is also on Instagram and Tiktok @wallstreetwildlife

Listen to Wall Street professional @MrNotAdvice break down the EOSE Energy Strategic Update presentation. The biggest concern for investors: "It's important to make the demarcation between a great company story and a stock". Is EOS still a story stock? $EOSE $ENVX $TSLA #CleanEnergy You can find more episodes of the podcast at wallstreetwildlife.com, and you can follow us at: https://twitter.com/7LukeHallard https://twitter.com/7FlyingPlatypus https://twitter.com/MrNotAdvice Wall Street Wildlife is also on Instagram and Tiktok @wallstreetwildlife You can find Mr Not Advice at his website: https://www.mrnotadvice.com

Episode 5 features the Badger explaining why his portfolio is chock full of strange ticker symbols that Monkey’s small brain had a hard time making sense of, something called ADRs — turns out they’re not as scary as you think (Badger's research resource mentioned in the episode is here: https://www.adr.db.com) Monkey meanwhile throws some rotten bananas at Badger’s snout for engaging in a serious investing fallacy — an insidious desire to earn medals for the amount of time he’s held his investments in Intuitive Surgical ($ISRG). What is a bank? What is crypto? Monkey and Badger explain both in a new Golden Goose Segment featuring closed trades that made a profit. The first golden egg was Monkey’s sale of crypto Chainlink for a 31% profit. Does crypto scare you? Don’t let it. Monkey explains what it is and if you stay with the products that are creating real-world value, you’ll do more than fine.

In episode 4 of Wall Street Wildlife, Badger and Monkey, having just watched Dumb Money, debate whether the market is rigged against retail investors, and what strategies you can use to outperform the market regardless.  Badger of course can’t help himself from squeezing poor humble Monkey’s shoes for wanting to have a little bit more fun by increasing the monthly portfolio contribution to $200 instead of $100, calling him out as a degenerate gambler. But Monkey’s wise retort leaves Badger stunned!  One month into the King of the Jungle Portfolio Challenge, Monkey is losing to Badger; he explains his KRE puts and how options accelerate both losses and gains, and the reason he opened that position which will need time to be proven correct. Badger, meanwhile, talks about his confidence in UK Fintech leader, Wise PLC. Need a source for deep fundamental research into some of the best businesses on the market?

Vulture talks about the market rally and how it’s ignoring data that is quite worrisome, using the -34% drop in insurance health premiums as a clear example of data manipulation. Monkey makes a case for his top holding, Coherus Biosciences, and why he had a hard time resisting buying way more shares than planned. Badger, meanwhile, badgers poor humble Monkey about investing in underperforming businesses, suggesting that businesses that go up tend to go up, and those that go down tend to go down... We also discuss the market being efficient on one plane while being inefficient on another, and how it’s possible to make money on these different planes of its existence. Our generous producer, Bats🦇, who naturally dwells in a cave working hard producing our podcasts, agrees to be paid in Wall Street Wildlife investment recommendations! We debate which stocks to begin with, and Badger nominates $MELI MercadoLibre while Monkey offers some of his own bitter medicine in $CHRS Coherus Biosciences.

Episode 2 of Wall Street Wildlife finds Badger in Hong Kong, a perfect location from which to teach Monkey about the nuances of portfolio risk management, and the dangers of feasting on too many rotten stock bananas, like, say, $EOSE Eos Energy, Monkey's fatal obsession. In Phoenix or Dodo, we examine Luke’s own junk stock, $NNOX Nanox Imaging and debate whether they are making the x-ray machines of the future, or turning investors into clowns working for the circus. In the King of the Jungle portfolio challenge, Monkey defends his decision to allocate over 40% of his portfolio to $CHRS Coherus Biosciences, triggering another Badger lecture about the difference between investing and gambling. What to do instead? Badger suggests a modest allocation to the MSCI India ETF $NDIA, “bloody hell, what is happening in India is incredible.” Whether you’re a beginner and curious about all the wild creatures that lurk in the jungles of Wall Street, or an experienced investor looking for investing ideas and strategies, let Monkey and Badger be your Wall Street Wildlife guides!
