In this September 2026 Mailbag, Jason and Jeff tackle listener questions on when it makes sense to "average up" on massive winners, analyzing David Gardner's contrarian approach to building a Rule Breaker portfolio.

Bob Lang sees elevated oil prices fueling inflation risk for small-cap stocks ahead of a likely Fed rate hike, noting a diesel export ban would do little to help.

The conversation closes with an outlook on end-of-month options expiry and a shift into a historically bullish seasonal period.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Friday's options tape stayed busy through the close. Mark Longo breaks down the most active names, with $TSLA taking the top spot ahead of $NVDA. He looks at Tesla's intraday swings, $AAPL calls that finished in the money, and $MSFT calls that fell just short of their strike.

While most of the Mag 7 have recently reestablished leadership in the stock market, Amazon (AMZN) has lagged in recent weeks since hitting all-time highs in early August. Kai Wu says the stock has the "most interesting set-up" of the group. He says the fundamentals for the ecommerce giant remain strong, it's the AI CapEx that Kai believes ignites investor concerns. He makes the case that Amazon's "very tangible" investments into data centers keeps the company toe-to-toe with competitors like Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOGL), Meta Platforms (META), and even SpaceX (SPCX). George Tsilis offers an example options trade for Amazon.

Jason and Jeff pull back the curtain on their Savvy Trader portfolio to examine the core mechanics of long-term portfolio construction. Using real-world examples from their own holdings, the hosts debate the discipline required to let a multi-bagger winner run versus the psychological battle of confronting a 70% drawdown. They tackle the dangerous allure of the sunk-cost fallacy, evaluate whether high-growth portfolios actually benefit from defensive "ballast" stocks, and break down how position sizing can keep single-stock blowups from derailing your long-term compounding.   00:27 Football and Fandom 02:04 College Football Detour 02:44 Back to Investing Talk 03:15 Savvy Trader Concept 06:39 How the Portfolio Works 10:06 Biggest Winner CrowdStrike 14:24 Why Hold CrowdStrike 20:02 Risks and Disruption Fears 23:56 Pivot to Biggest Loser 24:54 Position Size Breakdown 25:39 Lessons From Conviction 29:51 Why Keep Holding 32:29 Sunk Cost And Catalysts 37:24 Guidance Trend Reality Check 38:57 New Stock Ideas Debate 40:04 Ballast Stocks Or Index 45:58 AI Picks And Shovels 50:30 Final Picks And Wrap Up Companies mentioned: AAPL, AMZN, BRK.B, CRWD, FPS, FTNT, GOOG, GOOGL, MELI, MRNA, MRVL, PANW, TJX, TTD, TXN, VOO, ZS   Find where to listen & subscribe,  portfolio contests, and contact information at https://investingunscripted.com ***************************************** To get 15% off any paid plan at fiscal.ai, visit https://fiscal.ai/unscripted ***************************************** Join our Patreon Subscribe to our portfolio on Savvy Trader.

ChatGPT is back on the mound, David is back in the batter's box, and for the first time in more than a year it's time for five fresh pitches.This time, the questions aren't quizzes—they're provocations. What advantages did David have as an investor at 30 that he no longer has at 60—and what has he gained in return? Which Rule Breaker principle might prove less durable over the decades ahead? What could the future price of a single company tell us about the future of the world? And when two very different kinds of Rule Breakers compete for one spot in your portfolio, which way do you swing? Five questions designed to challenge assumptions, expose blind spots, summon a few strange hypotheticals, and perhaps produce an answer or two David himself didn't know he had.ChatGPT asks. David answers. Five questions, five swings. Play ball!

The competitive landscape for Amazon (AMZN) is getting tougher in the AI field, says Andy Swan of LikeFolio. His firm data shows a strong uptick in Microsoft (MSFT) Azure while Amazon AWS and Alphabet (GOOGL) Google Cloud lag. However, as Andy explains, "a flat line for consumer demand does not mean a flat line for revenue." He discusses how Amazon can pick up the slack through existing customers. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Amazon (AMZN) AWS is the "heartbeat" of the AI trade, says Steven Orr. He points to the cloud's revenue growth as an indicator Amazon is at the forefront of combining AI with its ecommerce ecosystem. "I think Amazon is the future," argues Steven, making the case that any dips on the Mag 7 stock are a buying opportunity for investors. He expects the stock to reach $360 or higher within the next 12 months. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

John Blank remains skeptical on Oracle's (ORCL) substantial weakness into Thursday's earnings even though the stock took a beating from last year's highs above $300. He weighs concerns on bullish expectations pointing to Oracle delivering on its massive backlog while it juggles ballooning CapEx. Another key concern John has: competition from already existing Big Tech giants that include names like Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOGL), and Amazon (AMZN).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In this episode, Jason and Jeff welcome back The Motley Fool co-founder David Gardner to discuss his book, Rule Breaker Investing, and the origins of his market-beating philosophy. The trio unpacks why seemingly overvalued stocks often generate the biggest returns, how AI is impacting established platforms like Booking Holdings, and whether mega-caps like Nvidia and Netflix have graduated from "Rule Breakers" to "Rule Makers". Plus, Jason and Jeff expand their ongoing stock-picking contest by pitching new additions to their portfolios.  00:43 Final Stock Market Book 02:53 How Rule Breaker Began 05:32 Yahoo Lesson on Valuation 08:36 Rule Breakers vs Goliaths 09:59 Values and Stock Picking 15:16 Overvalued Can Be a Signal 21:24 Market Outlook and Optimism 27:51 Sponsor Break and Tools 29:39 AI Selloff and Long View 34:24 Bubbles and Staying Invested 39:18 Rule Breakers Framework 39:43 Nvidia Still Breaking Rules 44:34 AI To Robotics Next 44:43 Netflix Rule Maker Era 47:44 Giving Appreciated Stock 49:45 Booking Versus AI Threat 51:09 Platforms Network Effects 56:36 Smattering Six Results 01:01:56 Power Law And Snap Test 01:07:48 Conscious Capitalism Closing Companies mentioned: ABNB, AMZN, AX, BKNG, CPNG, NFLX, NVDA, PCOR, PTON, QXO, RKLB, SBUX, SHOP, TBBB, TJX, TMDX, TSLA, WRBY Find where to listen & subscribe,  portfolio contests, and contact information at https://investingunscripted.com ***************************************** To get 15% off any paid plan at fiscal.ai, visit https://fiscal.ai/unscripted ***************************************** Join our Patreon Subscribe to our portfolio on Savvy Trader.

Qualcomm (QCOM) establishing an AI collaboration with Amazon (AMZN) is something Futurum CEO Dan Newman sees as "very optimistic." The partnership is currently valued at $60 billion.

He adds that Amazon's cloud business is closing the gap between it and other leaders like Microsoft (MSFT) Azure as compute demand accelerates.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In this episode of The Canadian Macro Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan break down the latest Fed decision and why the bond market may be starting to challenge Kevin Warsh’s inflation message. They discuss the split reaction across the yield curve, with short-term yields moving differently than longer-term yields, and what that could mean for inflation, recession risk and future rate hikes. They also look at Canada’s population data problem and why undercounting temporary residents could distort unemployment, mortgage delinquency trends and the broader read on the Canadian economy. From there, they dig into big tech earnings, including Microsoft and Meta, and why investors are paying closer attention to AI capex, free cash flow, depreciation, and credit default swaps across the hyperscalers. They also discuss Anthropic, open-weight AI models, data privacy concerns, tariffs, copper demand, and what the AI infrastructure build-out could mean for energy and markets.
