The Iran war is raging and the 2026 stock market hinges not on the ultimate outcome of the war, but rather the immediate unblocking of the Strait of Hormuz. We discuss how that can happen and why you should buy AI stocks on the pullback. We also predict a pullback in all things defense when the resolution does eventually come, and we analyze how you can capitalize on that to position yourself well for the increasingly violent future we face.

In this episode we give you a game plan to stay off the dinner table, with four AI stocks that benefit from the shift from labor to capital (and from services to capital). We first cover a new AI data center play and why all analysts rate it a buy with at least 40% upside, before taking a second look at rare earth stocks like MP Materials and USAR (with a surprise appearance by a major Australian rare earth company you've never heard of).

Investing in AI stocks in 2025 is equally gratifying and terrifying with the ever-present threat of tariffs and their possible economic impacts. We break down what really matters most in economic indicators - since the overall economy affects AI stocks more than anything - before we take a look at what the next three years in AI will bring. Learning from the successes of Circle and CoreWeave - we tip you off to the next big AI IPO (DataBricks). DataBricks is expected to IPO before the conclusion of 2025, but it could get pushed out if the economy sours.AI Stocks Covered in This Episode: Google (GOOG), Uber (UBER), QuantumScape (QS), DataBricks (private), Circle (CRCL), and CoreWeave (CRWV)

We've made double the returns of the NASDAQ and S&P so far this year, so it's time to take a look at what's working (and what's not). In doing so we discovered two hidden AI plays that no one's talking about. Before discussing those two stealth AI infrastructure stocks, we cover our big profits in Coreweave (CRWV), Circle (CRCL), Nebius (NBIS), and Applied Digital (APLD).

AI stocks are back in vogue (for about three days now). But will this AI earnings surge continue? The answer is always in the economy, and in this episode we aggregate advice from the top economists in the world to paint a slightly more nuanced picture. Despite blowout earnings from Microsoft (MSFT) and Meta (META), 44% of S&P companies that have reported so far have mentioned "recession" on their earnings calls. We highlight three key events over the next three trading days: Amazon and Apple earnings, the labor report, and ISM services.Regardless of where things go in May, we provide our ideal hedges for the rocky two quarters to come, including a detailed explanation of treasury ETF basics and Chinese tech ETFs. AI Stocks Covered: Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN), Meta (META), SAP (SAP), IBM (IBM), and many more

AI stock victim? We can help, starting with an analysis of the CoreWeave IPO disaster, a GTC that failed to kill persistent skepticism against Nvidia (NVDA), and....(drumroll) which AI stocks are safe from tariffs and recession, and which are sure to get slaughtered. Join us for an AI investing cope session, accompanied by keen macroeconomy analysis (really, it's good analysis). AI Stocks Covered: Nvidia (NVDA), CoreWeave (CRWV), Amazon (AMZN), Meta (META), and many more.

According to the market media, Nvidia has declined 105%, we're in the middle of a fierce recession, and there's no longer any need for GPUs due to Chinese dominance. In this episode we use AI and expert economists' commentary to clarify why the dominant narratives of the market pullback are, well, not quite right. If you're not sure how to think about the market crash - or if you feel like you want to sell everything and hide out until next year - this episode is for you.AI Stocks Covered: Nvidia (NVDA), AliBaba (BABA), Microsoft (MSFT), Broadcom (AVGO), Meta (META), Marvell (MRVL), Taiwan Semi (TSM)

Chinese dumping of AI open-source models and cheap Chinese AI inference could kill American AI, right? Even if not, we consider the best Chinese AI stocks to help you hedge against potential American mediocrity in AI. Consider AliBaba the Amazon of China, Baidu the Google of China, and Xiao-I the SoundHound of China. Pick your Chinese poison, and bottoms up.AI Stocks Covered: AliBaba (BABA), Baidu (BIDU), Xiao-I, Nvidia (NVDA)

As cries of DeepSeek death echoed the halls of Wall Street, Nvidia sank 105% on Monday due to terrified AI investors whose worst fears finally came true (tech companies are spending 95% too much on the AI buildout, there will never be any profit in AI inference, and China has co-opted all of America's AI success). Of course none of their fears are actually true, but the one day largest stock loss in history sure seems to indicate a lot of investors believed it. In this impromptu episode we cover the false narratives surrounding DeepSeek and what appears to have been a well-crafted short report boiled down to one false narrative: China trained a superior AI model with $5 million.AI Stocks Discussed: Nvidia ($NVDA)You can find our complete AI investing portfolio and all our top AI stock picks at https://investingintel.ai

Reddit is conflicted on AI. User backlash against using subreddits for AI training data sales led to a mixed bag for Reddit executives. In the end, they'll cave and do more AI stuff. For now, Reddit wants to identify as an online advertising company. And they're not doing so bad at that with superb year over year revenue growth. We discuss Reddit's burgeoning data sales business (and its percent of revenue) while looking at RDDT as a potential AI investment.We also break down market rotations and contemplate the TikTok ban, including whether it could have any effect on Reddit.AI Stocks Discussed: Intel ($INTC), Reddit ($RDDT), NVIDIA ($NVDA)You can find our complete AI investing portfolio and all our top AI stock picks at https://investingintel.ai

So our portfolios beat every analyst on Wall Street in 2024, but that's only because we went all in on AI stocks at the start of the year. In this episode we discuss our "reputational PNLs," which are calculated based on our takes on the show. We discuss our big AI winners and big AI losers of 2024 before discussing our 2024 acronyms and making 2025 acronyms. Oh yeah, and quantum computing.Note that this episode was recorded January 4, 2025 at 1pm. Thus, the bearish remarks on Rigetti Computing at the end of the show were made days before RGTI was cut in half by Jensen's lizard-embossed Tom Ford jacket.AI Stocks Discussed: IonQ (IONQ), NVIDIA ($NVDA), Rigetti Computing (RGTI), many othersPlease note our AI investing portfolio at https://investingintel.ai is now outdated and hasn't been updated in at least 6 months.

Yep, we recorded on Constellation Energy ($CEG) as an AI utility stock two days before it exploded 23% in a day. And yep, we published this episode two days after that meteoric intraday rise (we hope to soon reduce our turnaround time on publishing). While the Three Mile Island Microsoft data center deal solidified Constellation Energy as an AI utility, lesser known Talen Energy ($TLN) also provides nuclear power targeted towards data centers, in this case an Amazon Web Services data center. Yet regulated utilities lurk in the background, causing AI advancement troubles for both independent power producers TLN and CEG.AI Stocks Discussed: Constellation Energy ($CEG), Talen Energy ($TLN), Amazon ($AWS), Microsoft ($MSFT)You can find an entire AI investing portfolio and all our AI stock picks at https://investingintel.ai.And find the video version of the AI stock investing podcast at https://www.youtube.com/@InvestingInAI

Super Micro Computer has a Hindenburg Report, and SMCI stock dropped 27% on the news. Hindenburg Research has hit $SMCI with a slew of allegations, and Super Micro Computer's executives have yet to respond.

Meta decided to be a metaverse company and now wants to be an AI company. But open source AI models don't lead to revenue, and Meta's main strategies to monetize AI are questionable. Nonetheless, Meta's advertising business is booming, and the ban on TikTok may lead to lesser competition in short-form video. While Meta has successfully leveraged AI to improve their advertising algorithms, their plans to massively increase expenditures on AI for an unknown period of time before it can be monetized has spooked investors.You can find all our AI stocks and a full AI investing portfolio at investingintel.aiThe video version of this podcast can be found at youtube.com/@InvestingInAIAI Stocks discussed: Meta ($META)
