Speaking of stocks to avoid, I also break down why one beloved AI stock is faltering… and what to buy instead.

Paramount (PARA...2024-05-0141 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsWhy is crypto crashing?The next Bitcoin halving is right around the corner… This event has historically been super bullish for crypto. Yet, Bitcoin is trading significantly off its all-time high of just two months ago. In fact, it’s down 12% in the last week alone. The pullback has investors wondering what the hell is going on with crypto… I start today’s show by explaining why the pullback isn’t nearly as alarming as it seems… and why the halving will ultimately drive Bitcoin’s price higher. I’m hosting my next Crypto 2024 LIVE event on April 30 at 7 p.m. ET—where I’ll break down the cur...2024-04-1744 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsThe Fed is in ‘hope-and-pray’ modeThe Fed is in a lot of trouble… While the media is claiming the economy is stronger than ever, the latest inflation data says otherwise. On today’s show, I look under the hood at the alarming numbers… why the Fed is in an impossible position when it comes to interest rates… the serious implications for our economy… and how to position your portfolio to profit from the turmoil. Since my live event a few weeks ago—The AI Story No One’s Telling—listeners have been lighting up my inbox with questions about artificial intelligence (AI).

In short, it was incredible and I explain why NVDA is on an island all by itself when it comes to dominating AI. I breakdown why AI isn’t even out of the 1st inning in terms of growth and why it will disrupt every sector of our economy. Yes, every single sector. I’m so excited about the investment opportunities in AI that I’ve created a new service – Curzio AI – that focuses on the technology.

While I enjoyed bagels, pizza, and attending a St. John’s basketball game. I couldn’t be happier to be home and out of the northeast weather. Turning to markets, I break down this week's CPI (consumer pricing index) report and explain why, despite the hot inflation reading… stocks moved higher. I share a lot of data on why investors must be careful on what they wish for when it comes to the Fed cutting rates. Another trend getting mainstream attention is the massive amount of layoff...2024-03-1339 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsAI is still in the very early stages of growthAfter hitting an all-time high on Tuesday, Bitcoin plunged over 10%... for about 2 minutes, and is now rallying back to previous highs. I breakdown the volatility, including some crypto’s surging 200% in days, and how I would use pullbacks in crypto to your advantage as we approach the upcoming halving. Apple’s stock is down around 15% from its high, and mainstream media is panicking. I recap the bearish argument… the dismal iPhone sales data coming from China… the effect the upcoming Presidential election could have on the U.S. and China trade wars… and why you shouldn’t get overly bearish on Apple. Hi...2024-03-0652 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsAI will lead to an earnings explosionI start today’s podcast with a personal note about the Billy Joel concert my wife and I went to last weekend. In short, it was an amazing show. But we also really appreciated that we got the chance to put aside everyday tasks and be in the moment. You’re going to hear me say this often… There’s no denying AI (artificial intelligence) is a once in a lifetime opportunity. But I have some fun pointing out why wokeness and AI will never commingle. In fact, Alphabet's AI platform, Gemini, is going viral for all the wrong reasons. AI will...2024-02-2849 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsThe Bitcoin bull market is just getting startedHappy Valentine's Day. I hope your day is smoother than mine—I’m running around trying to make this a special day for my wife and daughters. Bitcoin has surged past $50,000 level—but we’re still in the early stages of this bull market. Last week, during Part 2 of my Crypto 2024 series, I explained why the next Bitcoin halving event will ignite several major crypto catalysts… and how to position yourself for windfall profits.

I break down the various technologies that were on display—both the good and the bad—from wireless TVs and language processors… to autos and ESG… to the latest (surprising) sex tech. I also share my favorite hands-on experience from the show, which included a combination of augmented and virtual reality. Unsurprisingly, the theme that dominated the show was artificial intelligence (AI). I highlight how AI will impact the workforce (for better or worse)… and which companies have built an early lead in this space. Speaking of AI winner...2024-01-1736 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsFrank Holmes: Bitcoin and gold are both set to soarI’m currently in Las Vegas attending the annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2024).

He starts by explaining why 2024 should be a bullish year… why he expects gold to nearly double from current levels… and which gold stocks he expects to outperform the rest. Next, Holmes, who’s also executive chair of HIVE Blockch...2024-01-101h 07Wall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsApple is flashing major warning signsHappy New Year! I kick off today’s show with a fun gambling tip I received while attending a college football game… and how it highlights some glaring issues with the college football playoffs. The stock market started 2024 on a down note, with the Nasdaq dropping 1.5% yesterday. I put the move into perspective… and explain why the “Magnificent 7” won’t lead the market this year. The market remains incredibly dangerous. I highlight some of the major risks I’m seeing across sectors, from housing to banking… as well as a couple of big geopolitical risks. Next, I explain why I’m shocked at Apple...2024-01-0332 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsYou’d be crazy to count on a rate cutMy family and I are back from our Thanksgiving vacation in the Dominican Republic. We had a fantastic time—except for the travel. Prepare for a rant on budget airlines… why I’ll never fly Spirit again… and a tangent about how the Department of Justice fights every merger (including the Spirit/JetBlue deal). The markets are on a four-week winning streak as economic data shows inflation is easing and investors are looking ahead to interest rate cuts next year. I explain why it’s crazy to expect a cut anytime soon… how the Fed is actually undermining its own fight against...2023-11-2950 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsThis $16 trillion opportunity is just getting startedI start today’s show by recapping my family’s awesome Halloween. By the time you get this episode, we’ll know the results of the Fed’s latest monetary policy meeting.

The first time, it cost me almost nothing out of pocket. But this time, I’ll be paying $8,000! Prepare for a rant about rising healthcare costs and the insurance racket. Following Fitch’s downgrade of U.S. debt last week, Moody’s just downgraded its ratings on 10 U.S. banks. It’s another concerning sign of what’s happening beneath the surface of the market. I highlight several reasons for investors to be cautious… including a classic signal that a recession is on the horizon. The...2023-08-0932 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsGet ready for a bull market in small capsI just finished watching the TV series Narcos. It's actually a great story about entrepreneurship (although, of course, the business is illegal). The stock rally is on. I highlight several names making explosive moves—including Tesla (TSLA), Sofi Technologies (SOFI), and one Curzio Venture Opportunities holding that’s up about 27% in less than a year. But despite these impressive gains, investors shouldn't expect a new bull market. I break down why this market is similar to the dot-com bubble… why I expect many big names to sell off soon… and why the Fed isn’t done with its rate hikes, even if it p...2023-06-1429 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsHow to survive the painful summer aheadSummer is here—which means the kids are home from school all day.

Guys, this might be the most important podcast you listen to all year.

I share some advice for younger listeners about life and marriage. We’re in the heart of earnings season—and a ton of big names are reporting this week. I explain why McDonald’s (MCD) and PepsiCo (PEP) are trading near 52-week highs… and why you shouldn't expect prices on your favorite products to come down anytime soon. The Fed is set to hike interest rates next week and many investors think it will be the last time—but I disagree. I...2023-04-2635 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsRegulators’ crypto crackdown is backfiringBig banks are cracking down on everything related to crypto—even us here at Curzio Research… I start today’s show by sharing the story of Bank of America dropping us as a customer. I rant about how the government’s interference is terrible for the entire industry… the no-brainer regulations it should enforce… how regulators are acting like bad parents… and how (as with bad parents) the “tough love” is backfiring.

I also explain why we’ll see a weird market for the first few months of 2023… and what data/events you should be watching out for. Next, I t...2023-01-0427 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsPowell is lying about the Fed’s inflation targetFrank is out of the office on a personal matter, leaving me—Daniel—behind the mic. Yesterday, the Fed hiked interest rates by 0.5%. During his followup Q&A, Fed Chair Jerome Powell said there are no plans to raise the inflation target from the current 2%. I explain why the markets sold off during his speech… why a surge in unemployment is inevitable… and why I believe Powell is outright lying (and will be forced to eat his words) about the Fed’s inflation target. In other news, the U.S. Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs held a hearing ye...2022-12-1523 minWall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These MarketsWhat we need for crypto to rallyFrank Holmes, CEO and chief investment officer of U.S. Global Investors and executive chairman of Hive Blockchain Technologies (HIVE), joins me to discuss the crypto markets.

I highlight some of our adventures (including driving excavators)... and why the bustling Vegas economy is a bit of an anomaly. Stocks have been rallying thanks to better-than-expected results (so far) this earnings season. But the headlines aren’t telling the real story. I explain what’s behind the numbers… why this rally won’t last… and why investors need to brace for the downtrend to continue. But that doesn’t mean you should sell everything.
