Peter Boockvar, Chief Investment Officer at One Point BFG Wealth Partners and author of The Boock Report, sees "bells ringing" on the AI tech trade with Oracle, CoreWeave, and Nvidia showing tiredness, and warns the question is whether the baton can be passed to other sectors without the market falling apart. His three favorite groups for 2026 are energy (where $60 oil is "one of the cheapest assets in the world" and he sees $70+ minimum), agriculture (fertilizer stocks like Mosaic and Nutrient), and beaten-down consumer staples offering "bond-like dividend yields with equity-like upside." On Venezuela, he disagrees with the oil-for-midterms thesis - it's really about stiff-arming China, Russia, and Iran, and won't impact oil supply for 5-10 years anyway. He's been trimming silver after its vertical move toward $100 but still likes gold driven by central bank buying and dollar diversification. His biggest concern: if we lose the AI trade, its dominance is so large it could take everything down with it.This episode is brought to you by VanEck. Learn more about the VanEck Rare Earth and Strategic Metals ETF: http://vaneck.com/REMXJuliaLinks: Substack/The Boock Report: https://boockreport.com/Twitter/X: https://x.com/pboockvarTimestamps:00:00 Intro and welcome Peter Boockvar01:18 2025 retro: World markets did really well, fire lit under international markets03:15 Bells ringing on AI tech trade - Oracle, CoreWeave, Nvidia tiredness05:45 China competition in AI - models more applicable, monetizing faster06:30 Bifurcated economy: Manufacturing recession, lower-middle income spending weak07:45 Data center build out - question of when not if it slows08:30 Delta earnings: Premium cabin strong, main cabin no growth09:15 Europe bifurcated too: Germany/France struggling, Spain/Greece doing well11:36 Three favorite groups for 2026: Energy, ag, consumer staples12:15 Energy: Bearish sentiment extreme, contrarian setup, CFTC net longs at 15-year lows13:30 Venezuela: 5-10 years before notable production increase14:15 OPEC production lagging quotas - most running at full capacity15:00 US shale production slowing, rolling over even in Permian15:45 Peak oil demand pushed out - hybrids winning, EV demand delayed16:30 Ag: Fertilizer stocks - Mosaic, Nutrient - down and out value plays17:15 Consumer staples destroyed over 12 months - deep value now17:52 Names: Kimberly Clark, Nestle, Pepsi, ConAgra, Coke, Reynolds18:24 Oil at $60 is one of the cheapest assets in the world - sees $70 minimum19:15 Energy holdings: Exxon, BP, Shell, Canadian Natural Resources, Oxy, Noble, EQT23:44 Venezuela won't impact oil supply for 5-10 years - focused on near-term25:32 Inflation: Conflicting dynamics - services decelerating, goods inflation returning27:00 Next Fed chair will have inflation dilemma - sticky around 3%28:45 Services inflation could rebound in back half of 2026 as apartment supply absorbed29:01 Reaction to Powell subpoena30:09 Powell is done cutting - will be playing 18 holes in June31:28 Last Fed cut was not necessary - took neutral rate below 1%32:30 Need low and stable prices first, then labor market improves35:34 Gold north of $4,600 - levels don't surprise, maybe pace did36:27 Silver at $92 - trimming position, tree needs to take a breather37:30 Gold thesis: Central bank buying, dollar diversification has more legs38:49 2025 lesson: World woke up to opportunities outside mag seven40:22 What not to own: Mag seven, long duration bonds40:46 Japan matters for global rates - JGB yields rising, canary in coal mine42:00 Bullish emerging market local currency bonds - better finances, cheap currencies42:57 EM names: China, Malaysia, Singapore, Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Indonesia43:45 Biggest risk: Losing AI trade and gap up in long-term rates44:24 Optimism: Broadening out continues, international markets, commodity trade has legs45:03 Parting thoughts: Investors need to be flexible in their thinking

What happens when war becomes a market and foreign policy turns into an odds board? We dive into the uneasy world of prediction platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi, where traders place bets on battlefield maps, covert raids, and even the exact words politicians will say. With researcher Nick Cleveland Stout from the Quincy Institute, we unpack how a briefly altered Ukraine map preceded a major payout, why a $400,000 win hit just hours before a surprise operation in Venezuela, and how these signals can tip off adversaries long before headlines catch up. Together we explore the ethics and incentives behind “the news of tomorrow today.” If market rules hinge on a single source, a map tweak or an official statement can decide millions—inviting manipulation rather than insight. We look closely at the regulatory blind spot: the CFTC treats these venues as prediction markets, leaving no insider trading framework even when life-and-death events are on the line. That vacuum tempts those with privileged access to profit, while retail bettors absorb the risk and confusion. The conversation follows the money. Defense contractors tout hardware after high-profile raids, budgets swell, and the arms industry wins. Oil players eye Venezuela's reserves and refineries, with some majors ready to expand and others demanding ironclad guarantees after prior expropriations. We examine how talk of reimbursements, control over refining, and contested asset sales like Sitgo feed a broader strategy to exert power without boots on the ground—and how markets amplify or distort that story. If prediction markets can surface real signals, they can also nudge reality. We outline concrete guardrails: diversified resolution sources, audit trails, institutional no-trade policies, event-type limits for active conflicts, and anomaly flags when flows cluster around sensitive moments. Then we ask the core question: should anyone profit from outcomes they can influence? Listen and decide with us, and if this conversation sharpened your thinking, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review so others can find it.

The latest episode of Crypto Town Hall dives into the dramatic postponement of the Senate Banking Committee's markup on the Clarity Act following Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong's public withdrawal of support. Panelists, including Scott Melker and guests like Carlo and Tom, unpack key controversies: recent amendments imposing a de facto ban on tokenized equities, restrictions on DeFi and privacy, erosion of CFTC authority, and a banking lobby push to block stablecoin yield/rewards to protect deposits. While some view Coinbase's influence as a bullish sign of crypto's growing DC power, others see it as evidence of entrenched banking interests stalling innovation. The group debates the bill's near-term viability (likely dead or heavily scaled back before midterms), its broader implications for tokenization and competition with traditional finance, and why Bitcoin's recent rally appears resilient despite the regulatory setback.

It's a BetCris Arizona Thursday and that means Adam Bjorn stops by to talk about all the big NFL games this weekend. Matt then talks about the NCAA asking the CFTC to stop allowing bets on college games in prediction markets.

This Crypto Town Hall discussion provides an in-depth analysis of the current state and future trajectory of cryptocurrency markets, focusing on the anticipated Federal Reserve interest rate cut and its limited immediate impact on Bitcoin's price. The conversation highlights the growing importance of stablecoins as a gateway for blockchain adoption, especially in emerging markets where traditional banking infrastructure is weak. Experts emphasize the critical need for regulatory clarity, with shifts expected between the SEC and CFTC, and landmark changes such as the OCC's recent approval allowing banks to engage in Bitcoin trading, signaling increased institutional integration. The dialogue also explores the evolving tokenization of assets, the challenges and opportunities in transforming traditional financial systems with blockchain technology, and how crypto-native companies maintain an edge by catering to the unique demands of Bitcoin holders. Additionally, the rise of Bitcoin-backed lending is examined as a vital financial tool enabling users to access liquidity without selling their assets, supported by transparency and risk management that distinguished resilient firms during recent market turmoil. Overall, this discussion captures the dynamic interplay of policy, technology, and market innovation shaping the crypto ecosystem's future.

A crypto regulatory update looking at why the long-promised market structure bill is likely slipping into next year as negotiators get bogged down in stablecoin yield, conflict-of-interest language, and the thorny problem of DeFi. The episode also covers the SEC's increasingly sharp divide with TradFi over tokenization rules and a surprising bit of good news from the CFTC on approved spot markets, setting the stage for a pivotal regulatory year ahead.

Washington is moving fast, and the entire crypto market is now in the crosshairs. Senators are preparing a sweeping new crypto market-structure bill, with major bank CEOs lobbying behind the scenes to shape the rules in their favor. The CFTC just launched a new digital assets oversight pilot alongside fresh fraud charges, while the SEC closed a two-year case against a Bitcoin developer without action. Add in Texas facing backlash over its Bitcoin reserve and the ECB defending its digital euro, and the regulatory landscape is shifting in real time. Today we break down how this new bill could redefine the future of Bitcoin, stablecoins, exchanges, and the entire U.S. crypto industry.

This episode of Crypto Town Hall on Exit 10 focuses on major regulatory and institutional shifts in crypto, the real meaning behind headline investments, macroeconomic trends, and the rise of user-friendly DeFi products. The main goal is to unpack recent developments—such as the CFTC accepting Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDC as derivatives collateral, and the true structure of Ripple's $500 million Wall Street deal—while examining their potential long-term impact on crypto markets, institutions, and end users. Later, a deep dive into EtherFi showcases how DeFi is building alternatives to traditional banking services, aiming for wide, user-friendly adoption.
