Market Mondays

This week on Market Mondays, we break down what really matters in the markets right now. From the investing fact and trading tip of the week to the Bitcoin selloff and potential recovery, we cover how to navigate volatility and position yourself with clarity. We also dive into whether the recent Nasdaq drop is behind us and what smart re-entry could look like. The conversation continues with practical ideas for investors looking for opportunity: the best stocks under $20, how to think about top long-term core holdings, and whether Microsoft under $400 presents a real buying opportunity. We also analyze AMD’s recent pullback, Robinhood’s connection to Bitcoin, and whether Micron has room for a short-term move. To close it out, we shift from markets to entrepreneurship with the inspiring business story behind Harlem Chocolate Factory — a real example of brand, culture, and execution coming together.

We also give a clear Bitcoin outlook, analyze what’s next for Eli Lilly, and explain how the new Fed Chair could impact stocks, interest rates, and the broader economy.

In this episode, we break down the biggest market stories shaping the rest of 2026. We kick things off with a Trading Tip of the Week, then dive into where gold and silver could peak after their historic run.

As we close out the year, this episode breaks down how to properly prepare for 2026—financially, mentally, and strategically. We cover the top moves to make before year-end, including smart end-of-year investment decisions, portfolio positioning, tax awareness, and how to set yourself up for momentum going into the new year. We also take a transparent year-in-review, unpacking the biggest successes, biggest failures, and most important lessons learned. What worked, what didn’t, and what needs to change moving forward. This is about reflection, accountability, and execution—not just motivation. If you’re serious about growth, wealth building, and leveling up in 2026, this episode gives you the blueprint to reset, refocus, and move with intention. #EYL #MarketMondays #Investing #WealthBuilding #FinancialPlanning #EndOfYearReview #2026Goals #StockMarket #PersonalFinance #OptionsTrading #Entrepreneurship #MoneyMindset Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on Market Mondays we’re getting tactical and long-term: your futures trading tip of the week, the biggest mistakes younger investors make chasing fast wins, and the most important investing lessons this year reinforced. We also get personal about the mindset shifts that matter—what we used to disagree with early on, then changed our mind about later, and the questions people should be asking if they actually want to build wealth over decades (not just catch a lucky trade). Then we dive into what’s moving markets right now: Oracle as a business and investment, whether the AI narrative tied to SoftBank/OpenAI has pushed expectations too far, and what really caused Friday’s sell-off—plus whether it quietly changed market structure more than most people realize. We break down the Coinbase vs. MicroStrategy vs. IBIT debate, talk about whether we’re headed toward a real correction or just another emotional shakeout, and if the market is broadening beyond tech or setting up a head fake before leadership narrows again. We also hit the high-volatility conversations: Super Micro’s relevance in AI infrastructure, how elite traders handle ES and NQ moving in sync, and whether leveraged ETFs like NVDL/AMDL are advanced tools—or long-term portfolio destroyers in disguise. Plus: quantum computing (obvious leaders vs. sleeper names), and a real discussion on how to balance fitness, family, investing, travel, and content creation without burning out. And we’re joined by Derrick Hayes to talk about his business journey and what it really takes to scale. #MarketMondays #Investing #Stocks #FuturesTrading #DayTrading #LongTermInvesting #FinancialLiteracy #WealthBuilding #AI #Oracle #Crypto #Bitcoin #Coinbase #MicroStrategy #IBIT #ETFs #LeveragedETFs #NVDL #AMDL #TechStocks #MarketNews #TradingPsychology #RiskManagement #QuantumComputing #Entrepreneurship #DerrickHayes #EarnYourLeisure Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on Market Mondays, we kick things off with our Futures Trading Tip of the Week and a breakdown of the biggest investing mistake of the year. We dive into the shocking rebound of Carvana joining the S&P 500 after nearly going bankrupt — debating whether it’s a true comeback story or a sign the market is getting reckless again. We also break down the massive bidding war for Warner Bros Discovery, who needs WBD the most to survive the next decade, and what this means for the future of media. Caleb Silver, Editor-in-Chief of Investopedia, joins us with expert data and insight throughout the discussion. We compare Paramount’s heavy debt load to Netflix’s growth and free cash flow dominance and question whether a Netflix–WBD deal would spark a new era of media consolidation or run into regulatory roadblocks. From there, we shift to AI and corporate strategy, analyzing IBM’s $11B acquisition of Confluent and whether M&A is becoming the quiet force powering the next leg of the AI boom. We also cover holiday spending vs weak investor sentiment, whether investors should rotate into safer stocks, and what Wednesday’s Fed decision could mean for markets heading into 2026. To wrap up, we go rapid-fire: the most attractive stocks currently dipping for LEAPs and swing trades, which companies are less likely to be corrupt or mismanaged, whether failed AI bets could force bailouts in tech, Bitcoin’s next move toward $65K or $70K, Apple’s potential talent crisis after losing multiple key executives, and if an oil collapse into the $30s could make the entire energy sector uninvestable. A packed episode with strategy, clarity, and expert perspective. #MarketMondays #EarnYourLeisure #CalebSilver #Investopedia #Investing #StockMarket #Bitcoin #OptionsTrading #AIStocks #MediaMergers #Carvana #Apple #OilPrices #WealthBuilding #FinancePodcast #EYL Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on Market Mondays, we’re breaking down the biggest moves in investing, crypto, and global markets. We cover the futures trading tip of the week, this year’s most important investing lesson, and why Bitcoin’s drop to $85,000 has traders in “extreme fear.” We debate whether the bottom is close, if a fall to $70K or even $65K is realistic, and why MicroStrategy trading below the value of its own Bitcoin may signal either a loss of institutional confidence or the best buying opportunity of the cycle. We also unpack whether Ethereum could fall under $2,000 and how December’s market behavior might preview what 2026 looks like. We explore one of the most important conversations for any entrepreneur or investor: If you lost everything tomorrow, what are your first five moves? Ian and Rashad lay out the fastest, most realistic path to rebuilding from zero. We also break down whether to prioritize dividends or growth in today’s economy, how much company stock someone at Microsoft should realistically hold, and whether $70K Bitcoin is still a real near-term target. On the macro side, Japan’s 10-year yield hits 1.84% (highest since 2008), potentially signaling the end of the global carry trade — with major implications for U.S. stocks, tech, and crypto. We close with silver hitting $59 for the first time ever, posting a 100%+ yearly gain — is now the time to invest? Plus, we review new data revealing the minimum income needed to live comfortably in 2025, with rising housing, food, and healthcare costs reshaping what financial stability really means. And we’re joined by Jason Gyama, Founder of the Quarter Zip Movement, bringing strategy, energy, and culture to the conversation.

In this Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings break down the strategic moves and under-the-radar companies driving the explosive AI sector. Troy Millings takes viewers behind the scenes of EY University, sharing insights on how the AI revolution is being monetized—not just through household names like Nvidia, Broadcom, and AMD, but also through key players that keep the tech ecosystem running smoothly. Dive into the analogy of the AI ecosystem modeled after the human body: Nvidia stands as the heart, Broadcom as the veins, and Fabrinet emerges as a crucial valve accelerating connectivity. Troy highlights how diligent research led to the identification of Fabrinet and then pivots to discuss the soaring memory sector, featuring Micron and Western Digital. A major spotlight is placed on SanDisk, Western Digital’s flash storage spin-off, which recently went public and saw an impressive performance spike. Learn why immediate demand for memory and flash storage, underscored by Samsung’s inability to fulfill all orders, has made SanDisk a leader in SSD and flash—and why its addition to the S&P 500 could mean major index fund investments are about to flow in. Ian Dunlap offers trading tactics for both beginners and advanced traders, explaining the importance of targeting trades differently on Mondays and Fridays versus the rest of the week to maximize gains and protect capital. This clip is jam-packed with actionable game for investors and traders seeking to decode the tech boom—spotlighting not just the well-known names, but also the hidden gems set to benefit most from ongoing AI development. If you’re ready to learn, execute, and take advantage of momentous opportunities in the evolving tech landscape, this is the clip you can’t afford to miss. *Hashtags:* #MarketMondays #AIStocks #TechInvesting #SanDisk #Nvidia #Broadcom #Fabrinet #SSD #FlashMemory #StockMarket #SP500 #TradingTips #WealthBuilding #FinancialEducation #EYUniversity Our Sponsors: * Check out PNC Bank: https://www.pnc.com * Check out Square: https://square.com/go/eyl Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

We also discussed what the “American Dream” should look like today if homeownership feels out of reach, and whether dropping $1M into QQQI or SPYI for monthly dividend income is a smart path to financial freedom. Plus, we examined global tensions between China, Taiwan, and Japan, and the impact these conflicts could have on markets in the coming years. We also dove deep into investor psychology — how to stay disciplined when targets don’t hit, how to avoid FOMO during red markets, and whether to dollar-cost average or wait for pullbacks in 2025. We covered Novo’s epic fall, Dogecoin’s collapse, and the growing national debt crisis that could reshape investor strategy for the next decade.

Bitcoin’s slide has the entire market asking the same question: is this the beginning of real trouble, or the setup for the biggest buying opportunity of the year? This week on Market Mondays, we break down the volatility across crypto, AI, and equities as investors brace for major moves. From Peter Thiel unloading all his Nvidia and cutting 76% of his Tesla stake, to MicroStrategy trading below its net asset value, we analyze whether these are smart exits or signals of deeper cracks forming in the system. At the same time, the tech world is flashing warning signs—Meta is down 23%, Palantir is down 16%, and CoreWeave has crashed over 50%. With Nvidia reporting this week, the entire S&P 500 feels like it’s tied to a single stock. Are we watching an AI bubble quietly deflate, or a temporary shakeout before the next run? Meanwhile, consumer discretionary is having its worst month in six months and financial stocks are hitting new highs. We break down whether this rotation into safety is healthy, or a setup for a major reversal. We close the episode with the biggest opportunities hiding in the chaos: which distressed assets might actually be long-term winners, why the bond market is having its strongest year since 2020, and what these signals mean heading into Black Friday and 2026. Plus—we share our hot takes on investing that most people don’t agree with.

In this powerful clip of Market Mondays, Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings dive deep into the global tech and investing landscape—focusing on Nvidia’s sudden departure from the Chinese market. Host Rashad kicks off the discussion by raising questions about Nvidia’s abrupt shift from having 95% market share in China to zero, following US-China tech tensions. Is this move long-term trouble for Nvidia’s stock, or is CEO Jensen Huang playing political chess? Ian Dunlap pulls no punches, comparing the situation to historic moments like the moon landing and drawing parallels to Apple’s strategic moves in India. He highlights how companies can’t play both sides in a technological war and that sometimes, greed can blind executives to geopolitical realities. Ian predicts Nvidia will work to offset losses by forging partnerships elsewhere—most likely in India or the UAE, where tech investments are surging. Troy Millings zeros in on Nvidia’s resilient stock price, pointing out that the market barely budged despite this major announcement. The conversation pivots to the importance of geographical diversification and the rising influence of Gulf States like UAE and Saudi Arabia as the new funding hubs for global tech. The trio also gets into the nitty-gritty of international policy, IP theft, and global supply chains—breaking down how America innovates, the Middle East invests, China copies, and Europe regulates. Rashad and Ian discuss the tightrope walk companies like Apple and Nvidia face in China, noting the government’s drive to develop and protect its own tech sector—even if it means bypassing superior American products. They explore the potential fallout if China invades Taiwan and the role of semiconductor titans like TSMC—where kill switches in chip fabs could be a game-changer for global tech dominance.

In this insightful Market Mondays clip, hosts Troy Millings and Rashad Bilal break down their latest moves and strategies with AI chip stocks, focusing especially on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC or TSM). Rashad kicks things off by recapping a bold call made when TSM stock pulled back—highlighting the real-time decisions that set successful traders apart. Troy shares his long-standing affinity for TSM, which dates back years, and details his own strategic options stack, entering new positions as the stock fluctuates. What makes TSM so vital in the current tech landscape? Troy unpacks how TSMC sits at the center of the global AI ecosystem, manufacturing chips for industry leaders like Nvidia, AMD, and Broadcom. With TSMC’s key earnings event and the steady increase in quarterly performance, the hosts discuss both the short-term trading opportunities and the long-term investment potential. But it’s not just about the numbers. The conversation turns to the bigger picture: TSMC's critical role in the supply chain, the geopolitical pressures influencing its business, and the fast-tracking of new American plants in Arizona. Troy muses about how TSMC’s global presence and U.S. expansion ensure supply chain security—a lesson learned after the disruptions of 2020. They also touch on governmental moves pushing leading chipmakers like TSMC and Micron to manufacture on American soil, securing both economic and national security interests.
