    Did Trillion-Dollar IPOs Break The Social Contract?

    This week, we discuss why AI is breaking the social contract between public markets and the American people. We deep dive into why only the self-motivated will win the AI era, the $60 trillion wealth transfer from boomers to millennials and Gen Z, the rise of scarce asset trades (Ferraris, Birkins, dinosaur bones), why the Anthropic and OpenAI IPOs at multi-trillion valuations might break markets, why May CPI hitting a 3-year high pushes December hike odds to 70%, why Mythos and quantum risk are overhyped, and where we're putting cash to work in gold, uranium, and pipeline MLPs.

    Is Robotics The Next Megabubble?

    Today, Avi sits down with Andrew Kang (@Rewkang), founder and CEO of RoboStrategy (Nasdaq: BOT), to discuss why robotics and physical AI are the next $10 trillion mega bubble. We deep dive into why the entire private robotics market is smaller than Pokémon trading cards, why VCs are pivoting from software to physical AI, the GPT-3 moment for robotics and why GPT-5-level capabilities are less than two years away, why you can't just hook Claude up to a robot, how Andrew built the "MicroStrategy of Robotics," and rapid fire pitches on companies in the RoboStrategy portfolio: Figure AI, Apptronik, Standard Bots, Dyna Robotics, and Dexmate.

    This week, we discuss why the market is splitting in two and how to navigate the dispersion regime. We deep dive into rally warning signs and alt season at the top, the memory supercycle and the DRAM leading indicator, the Saylor unwind and the tax-loss harvesting trade, the pair trade playbook, why you should delete the word "crypto" and apply your skills to equities, Jonah's leading indicator framework for the AI bubble, the hawkish Warsh trade, and the resurfacing Iran/Hormuz tail risk.

    Is This The End Of Crypto?

    This week, we discuss whether this is the end of crypto as we know it. We deep dive into Michael Saylor's "Egg Man" problem and why his Bitcoin position has become untenable, why decentralization lost and Solana and Hyperliquid won, how to spot the top of the AI bubble, the memory supercycle and why the OpenAI and Anthropic IPOs might mark the top, the framework of the Iran deal and what it means for oil, and why a deal could actually be bearish for markets.
