    Ryan Cohen Just Bought GameStop Again | My Verdict | Market Prep Sunday

    GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen just bought the stock a third time this month — now near an 8% stake. Ryan Cohen just put another $10.6 million into GameStop — his third buy of the month — lifting his stake near 8%, with a board director buying too. This Market Prep has my honest verdict: is the insider buying a signal to follow, or just fuel for a stock that trades on hype two-thirds below its meme-era high? We also break down the bond market at 5% and the cracks forming beneath it, whether quantum computing is a real investable wave or the next bubble, and the full week ahead — ISM services, the Fed's September minutes on Wednesday, and the first earnings of the season from PepsiCo and Delta. 📅 New episodes every Wednesday 9PM ET & Sunday 7PM ET — market prep, momentum plays, and trade ideas. 📊 Research tool I use — Stock Analysis (code STONK = 10% off first Pro cycle): https://stockanalysis.com/pro/?ref=brandon5b 📈 Level Up Your Charts: Get $15 off TradingView — the charting platform I trust every day. 🔗 https://tradingview.com/?aff_id=154886 🎧 Podcast: https://pod.link/1791475353 🐦 X: http://x.com/StonkcastShow 🛒 Merch: http://stonkcast-shop.fourthwall.com/collections/all 💸 Support the show: https://paypal.me/stonkcast Some links are affiliate/referral links — Stonkcast may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. ⚠️ Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice.

    Nvidia Just Won the AI Regulation Fight | Where I'd Buy It | Midweek Check-In

    Nvidia won the AI-rules fight — the White House backed self-regulation, no curbs on the buildout. At Tuesday's White House AI lunch, Nvidia's Jensen Huang won the regulation fight: the administration came out for self-regulation and left the data-center buildout untouched, while safety hawks like Anthropic's Dario Amodei didn't get the limits they pushed for. This Midweek Check-In has my exact level on Nvidia — where the win makes it a buy, and where a $230 stock has already priced it in. We also break down Micron's fresh earnings and what they signal for the AI-memory trade, SpaceX reaching orbit for the first time and how you'd actually get exposure to a private rocket company, and the setup into Friday's jobs report. 📅 New episodes every Wednesday 9PM ET & Sunday 7PM ET — market prep, momentum plays, and trade ideas. 📊 Research tool I use — Stock Analysis (code STONK = 10% off first Pro cycle): https://stockanalysis.com/pro/?ref=brandon5b 📈 Level Up Your Charts: Get $15 off TradingView — the charting platform I trust every day. 🔗 https://tradingview.com/?aff_id=154886 🎧 Podcast: https://pod.link/1791475353 🐦 X: http://x.com/StonkcastShow 🛒 Merch: http://stonkcast-shop.fourthwall.com/collections/all 💸 Support the show: https://paypal.me/stonkcast Some links are affiliate/referral links — Stonkcast may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. ⚠️ Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice.

    Meta Is Closing In on $2 Trillion | Where I'd Buy It | Market Prep Sunday

    Meta added nearly $200 billion in a month and is closing in on a $2 trillion valuation. Meta's Muse assistant just drove its best month since 2013 — and this Market Prep asks whether the easy money's already gone. We get into the $2 trillion question and my exact level on Meta, why China's cheaper "diffusion" approach to AI puts the entire US spending trade on trial, and the Treasury-yield rout pushing the 10-year above 5% into Friday's jobs report. Plus the full economic calendar for the week — every release that matters, and the one that decides everything. 📅 New episodes every Wednesday 9PM ET & Sunday 7PM ET — market prep, momentum plays, and trade ideas. 📊 Research tool I use — Stock Analysis (code STONK = 10% off first Pro cycle): https://stockanalysis.com/pro/?ref=brandon5b 📈 Level Up Your Charts: Get $15 off TradingView — the charting platform I trust every day. 🔗 https://tradingview.com/?aff_id=154886 🎧 Podcast: https://pod.link/1791475353 🐦 X: http://x.com/StonkcastShow 🛒 Merch: http://stonkcast-shop.fourthwall.com/collections/all 💸 Support the show: https://paypal.me/stonkcast Some links are affiliate/referral links — Stonkcast may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. ⚠️ Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice.

    Trump Calls Amodei's AI Warning a 'Hoax'

    Trump called Amodei's AI warning a "hoax" and is forming an "AI Force." Trump is creating an AI Force and naming an AI czar, dismissing the safety concerns Anthropic's Dario Amodei raised last week — a call that Sam Altman and Elon Musk both backed. Also this week: Anthropic pushed its IPO back to November as it works to show strong Q3 numbers against OpenAI's new model, and there's a real case that the economy can absorb higher rates better than it looks. I break it all down, plus the three names I'm watching either way and what's on the economic calendar this week. 📅 New episodes every Wednesday 9PM ET & Sunday 7PM ET — market prep, momentum plays, and trade ideas. 📊 Research tool I use — Stock Analysis (code STONK = 10% off first Pro cycle): https://stockanalysis.com/pro/?ref=brandon5b 📈 Level Up Your Charts: Get $15 off TradingView — the charting platform I trust every day. 🔗 https://tradingview.com/?aff_id=154886 🎧 Podcast: https://pod.link/1791475353 🐦 X: http://x.com/StonkcastShow 🛒 Merch: http://stonkcast-shop.fourthwall.com/collections/all 💸 Support the show: https://paypal.me/stonkcast Some links are affiliate/referral links — Stonkcast may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. ⚠️ Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice.

    Warsh Defies Trump, Hikes Rates | Market Midweek Check-In

    Fed Chair Kevin Warsh just hiked interest rates for the first time in three years — defying Trump. Warsh delivered the Fed's first rate hike in three years, moving against pressure from Trump and setting up a fight over central bank independence heading into the midterms. Also this week: Anthropic, OpenAI, and xAI's leaders are all calling for a slowdown in AI development, and optical networking names Lumentum and Coherent posted some of today's biggest gains. I break down what it means, plus the three names I'm watching after today's optics rally. 📅 New episodes every Wednesday 9PM ET & Sunday 7PM ET — market prep, momentum plays, and trade ideas. 📊 Research tool I use — Stock Analysis (code STONK = 10% off first Pro cycle): https://stockanalysis.com/pro/?ref=brandon5b 📈 Level Up Your Charts: Get $15 off TradingView — the charting platform I trust every day. 🔗 https://tradingview.com/?aff_id=154886 🎧 Podcast: https://pod.link/1791475353 🐦 X: http://x.com/StonkcastShow 🛒 Merch: http://stonkcast-shop.fourthwall.com/collections/all 💸 Support the show: https://paypal.me/stonkcast Some links are affiliate/referral links — Stonkcast may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. ⚠️ Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice.

    Anthropic's Amodei Told AI to Slow Down — Altman Agreed | My Line for Wednesday

    Dario Amodei called for AI development to slow down, and Sam Altman agreed within hours. Then the Fed. August core CPI came in at 0.3% against 0.2% expected, and traders now put better than 85% odds on a rate hike when the FOMC decides Wednesday at 2:00 PM ET — the first move out of the 3.50%–3.75% range since December. I give you my line for Wednesday: the one thing in the statement that flips how I'm positioned, and what I do if it isn't there. Also: oil back near $100 after the Saudi pipeline attacks, the ten-year at 52-week highs, August retail sales, Lennar and FedEx earnings, and one speculative driverless-freight name — with the going-concern risk stated plainly, including the research firm's own disclosed position. 📅 New episodes every Wednesday 9PM ET & Sunday 7PM ET — market prep, momentum plays, and trade ideas. 📊 Research tool I use — Stock Analysis (code STONK = 10% off first Pro cycle): https://stockanalysis.com/pro/?ref=brandon5b 📈 Level Up Your Charts: Get $15 off TradingView — the charting platform I trust every day. 🔗 https://tradingview.com/?aff_id=154886 🎧 Podcast: https://pod.link/1791475353 🐦 X: http://x.com/StonkcastShow 🛒 Merch: http://stonkcast-shop.fourthwall.com/collections/all 💸 Support the show: https://paypal.me/stonkcast Some links are affiliate/referral links — Stonkcast may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. ⚠️ Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice.

    Apple's $2,000 Foldable, New CEO's First Test | What To Watch Instead

    Apple just launched its first foldable iPhone — the $2,000 Duo — under brand-new CEO John Ternus. The iPhone Duo folds out to a tablet-sized screen, starts around $2,000 and tops out at $3,199 — Apple's biggest iPhone change in nearly 20 years, and the first product launched under John Ternus, who took over from Tim Cook on September 1. Apple placed that bet into an AI-driven memory chip shortage pushing prices up across the whole lineup. That same AI boom handed Intel its best day in months — up 9% on its own server CPU price hikes and a reported $30 billion Nvidia stake. We break down the one number that actually tells you whether the foldable matters for Apple stock, then cover Intel's pricing-power story and the Anthropic safety researcher whose very public exit is the AI trade's most ignored risk. 📅 New episodes every Wednesday 9PM ET & Sunday 7PM ET. 📊 Research tool I use — Stock Analysis (code STONK = 10% off first Pro cycle): https://stockanalysis.com/pro/?ref=brandon5b 📈 Level Up Your Charts: Get $15 off TradingView — the charting platform I trust every day. 🔗 https://tradingview.com/?aff_id=154886 🎧 Podcast: https://pod.link/1791475353 🐦 X: http://x.com/StonkcastShow 🛒 Merch: http://stonkcast-shop.fourthwall.com/collections/all 💸 Support the show: https://paypal.me/stonkcast Some links are affiliate/referral links — Stonkcast may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. ⚠️ Disclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice.
