    Is The Stock Market Really Going to Collapse in 2028?

    In this episode of Being Exponential, Luke Lango breaks down the implications of the newly released Citrini Research paper, “The 2028 Intelligence Crisis,” and what it could mean for markets, AI infrastructure, and the next wave of exponential investing. The report argues that we may be approaching a global intelligence bottleneck — a moment when compute, energy, data, and geopolitical competition collide in ways that reshape economic power. Luke explains what the “2028 Intelligence Crisis” thesis really means, whether it’s credible, and how markets are beginning to price it in. From there, we dive into the Physical AI trade — the shift from digital AI (chatbots, copilots, software automation) to embodied AI in robots, autonomous vehicles, drones, edge devices, and industrial systems. If intelligence becomes scarce and strategic, distribution and deployment become critical. That’s where Physical AI comes in. We also unpack what Luke calls the HALO Trade — the higher-order beneficiaries of AI buildout and deployment. These are the companies positioned not just in chips and data centers, but in the energy, materials, networking, and hardware layers required to support exponential intelligence growth. If AI isn’t a bubble — but a structural reordering of the global economy — then the implications for capital allocation, sector leadership, and market structure are enormous. This episode connects geopolitics, AI infrastructure, compute bottlenecks, and next-gen hardware into a unified investing framework. 🎧 Subscribe to Being Exponential with Luke Lango for weekly insights on AI investing, macro trends, and exponential change.

    The Market Signal Everyone's Missing Right Now

    In this episode of Being Exponential, Luke Lango dives into the next evolution of artificial intelligence — and what it means for markets. We start with a breakdown of physical AI vs. digital AI. Digital AI powers chatbots, copilots, and software automation. Physical AI powers robots, autonomous vehicles, industrial systems, and real-world machines. Luke explains why this distinction matters — and why the shift toward embodied, real-world AI could define the next wave of exponential growth. Then we zoom out to look at index performance, including the historic moment as the Dow Jones Industrial Average hits 50,000. What’s really driving the move? Is it broad economic strength — or a narrow AI-fueled rally lifting the major indexes? We also tackle the intersection of politics and AI. From regulation and industrial policy to national competitiveness and capital flows, governments are increasingly shaping the trajectory of AI innovation. Luke breaks down how political dynamics could accelerate — or disrupt — the AI boom. If you’re trying to understand where the market is headed as AI moves from code to concrete, from software to robots, and from innovation to national strategy — this episode connects the dots. 🎧 Subscribe to Being Exponential with Luke Lango for weekly insights on AI investing, macro trends, and exponential change.

    The SaaSpocalypse is only the Beginning...

    In this episode of Being Exponential, Luke Lango breaks down the massive shifts happening across technology, markets, and liquidity — and why investors are entering a new phase of the AI cycle. We start with the ongoing SaaSpocalypse — the sharp selloff and structural reset hitting software stocks. As artificial intelligence becomes more vertically integrated and capable, the traditional SaaS middle layer is under pressure. Luke explains why this isn’t just a correction — it could be a long-term repricing of the entire software sector. Then we pivot to the opposite side of the trade: the explosive new wave of AI capital expenditures (capex). Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, OpenAI and others are committing hundreds of billions of dollars toward AI data centers, chips, infrastructure, and compute. Luke connects the dots between this spending surge and the hardware winners emerging from the AI arms race. From there, we zoom out to discuss liquidity in the markets — how capital flows, monetary conditions, and financial system dynamics are shaping asset prices beneath the surface. And finally, we tackle Bitcoin and crypto. If this is a liquidity-driven cycle, why isn’t Bitcoin behaving the way many expected? Luke shares his view on what crypto’s current performance is signaling — and what needs to change for the next breakout. If you want to understand how AI infrastructure, market liquidity, SaaS disruption, and crypto cycles all intersect — this episode connects the dots. 🎧 Subscribe to Being Exponential with Luke Lango for weekly insights on AI investing, macro trends, and exponential change.

    Bitcoin vs The Dollar Collapse: What's Actually Happening?

    In this episode of Being Exponential, Luke Lango breaks down one of the most volatile and consequential weeks across markets, AI, geopolitics, and monetary policy — and what it all means for investors going forward. We start with the sudden collapse in the metals market, unpacking why gold, silver, and industrial metals sold off sharply, whether this move is a short-term liquidation or a deeper structural reset, and how investors should think about metals positioning after the drawdown. Next, Luke dives into SpaceX’s acquisition of xAI, one of the most important AI infrastructure deals to date. We explore why Elon Musk is vertically integrating AI, compute, data, and space-based infrastructure — and how this move escalates what Luke calls the AI Superwar, a global race for dominance in artificial intelligence, energy, compute, and critical resources. From there, we tackle “SaaS-mageddon” — the collapse of the traditional software middle layer. As AI models become more capable and vertically integrated, many SaaS companies are losing pricing power, relevance, and defensibility. Luke explains why this shift could permanently reshape the software industry and what investors need to avoid — and target — in the AI era. Finally, we discuss Kevin Warsh as the new Federal Reserve Chair and what his selection signals for interest rates, monetary policy, inflation, and asset prices over the next year. Luke breaks down whether Warsh is truly a hawk or dove, how the Fed’s approach may change, and what this means for stocks, bonds, real assets, and the dollar.

    Your Salary is Collapsing While Assets Soar. Here's Why

    In this episode of Being Exponential, we break down some of the most important forces shaping markets, money, and power right now — from geopolitics and commodities to AI infrastructure and government spending. We start with the Greenland deal and why it matters far beyond headlines. From critical minerals to energy security, Greenland has become a focal point in the global competition for resources needed to power the AI era. From there, we zoom out to gold, silver, and industrial metals, and explain why they’re moving higher as part of a much bigger trend: structural de-dollarization. As confidence in fiat currencies erodes and global trade shifts, we discuss whether the dollar is slowly losing purchasing power — and what that means for investors. Next, we dive into Nvidia’s role in stabilizing CoreWeave, and what this moment says about the true backbone of the AI economy. Chips, capital, and compute are converging — and Nvidia sits at the center of it all. We also examine government investment in USAR and what it signals about rising defense, infrastructure, and strategic spending priorities as the world enters a more competitive, resource-driven era. This episode connects the dots between geopolitics, AI, commodities, and capital flows — all through the lens of exponential change.

    The Ultimate Post Davos Investment Opportunities for 2026

    In this episode of Being Exponential, Luke Lango breaks down some of the most dynamic forces shaping the future of markets, geopolitics, technology, and exponential innovation. We start with the Greenland geopolitical flashpoint — an intense diplomatic episode that saw the U.S. back away from tariff threats tied to territorial ambitions and pivot toward a new Arctic security framework with NATO, while Denmark and Europe insist on respecting Greenland’s sovereignty. We explore what this evolving situation means for global alliances, trade, defense spending, and investor risk sentiment as markets react to heightened tension and uncertainty.  Next, Luke dives into Nvidia’s new AI computing platform (Rubin) and why this next generation of silicon is a potential game changer across data centers, robotics, and autonomous systems. From efficiency gains to broader AI deployment, we examine how this chip could reshape the economics of AI workloads and corporate bottom lines.  Then it’s all about robots and autonomy: breakthroughs in robotics are no longer distant science fiction — industrial and humanoid machines are moving into real world applications faster than most realize. AI integration, advanced sensors, and smarter control loops make this one of the most exciting areas of exponential tech. We also highlight Aurora, a leader in autonomous freight transport and logistics. Aurora’s self-driving systems — being tested and deployed today — represent a transformative shift in how goods move across highways and oceans, unlocking efficiency and safety gains in the supply chain.  Whether you’re tracking how geopolitics influences investment themes, trying to understand the real impact of AI hardware innovation, or watching robotics and autonomy mature into major economic forces — this episode dives deep into the exponential trends that matter in 2026 and beyond.

    The Investing Pillars to Profit in The New World Order

    In this episode of Being Exponential, Luke Lango lays out his Acquisition Americana thesis — a framework for understanding the massive geopolitical, economic, and market shifts now reshaping the global order. Luke explains why the world is moving away from the old Pax Americana model and into a new era defined by resource acquisition, strategic dominance, and accelerated spending. Most importantly, he breaks down the five core pillars investors need exposure to as this new regime takes hold: Oil – Why energy security and short-term supply dynamics matter more than everDefense – The coming golden era of military, drone, satellite, and defense spendingHousing Affordability – How affordability pressures are shaping policy, markets, and opportunityConsumer Spending – What shifting consumer behavior signals about economic resilienceArtificial Intelligence – Why AI remains the North Star, even as new themes emerge around itLuke connects geopolitics, macroeconomics, and market structure to show how these five pillars work together — and how investors can position for volatility, regime change, and long-term exponential growth. If you’re trying to understand what really matters in markets now, and how to invest through uncertainty instead of fearing it, this episode is essential listening.

    2026 Market Update: The Acquisition Strategy That's Working Now

    In this special New Year update of Being Exponential, Luke Lango jumps on for a solo market briefing after one of the most chaotic first weeks to a year in recent memory. While headlines scream about volatility and an “AI bubble,” Luke explains why AI remains the North Star of the market — backed by strong earnings, accelerating chip innovation, rising data-center demand, and major breakthroughs in humanoid robotics, autonomous vehicles, and large language models. But something has changed. Luke breaks down why we’re entering a new market regime in 2026 — one defined by geopolitical escalation, resource acquisition, and massive shifts in government spending. He lays out two emerging themes investors can’t ignore: • A short-term opportunity in oil & gas, driven by geopolitical developments and refining dynamics • A much bigger, longer-lasting golden era for defense stocks, fueled by rising global military budgets and a shift toward drones, satellites, missile defense, and expendable systems Luke introduces the concept of “Acquisition Americana,” explaining why the world may be moving away from Pax Americana toward a more fragmented, resource-driven global order — and what that means for markets. He also explains: Why AI stocks are still healthy despite market chaosWhy defense “up-tempo” names may outperform traditional program stocksWhere the real alpha could be in 2026How to think about evolving your portfolio as the market evolvesIf you’re trying to make sense of volatility, geopolitics, AI, and where the next big opportunities are — this episode is a must-watch. 🎧 Full-length episode returns next week.
