Markets are hovering near record highs, but many investors still feel like the rally has lost its momentum. In this episode, Zaid sits down with Fundstrat economic strategist Hardika Singh to discuss why AI and memory stocks have cooled off, what to watch during earnings season, and why Big Tech's AI spending remains the market's biggest story. They also break down the latest signals from the Federal Reserve, why the labor market may now matter more than inflation, and what recent bank earnings reveal about the strength of the U.S. consumer. Finally, Hardika shares her outlook for the second half of the year, including whether blockbuster AI IPOs like OpenAI and Anthropic may have to wait.

Jay Woods, chief market strategist at Freedom Capital Markets, says that the market has a "Janet Jackson - What Have You Done for Me Lately" attitude, which has made earnings cycles particularly volatile, and he thinks that will be amplified with the earnings on tap right now powering market moves, especially around market misses. While he believes earnings will be strong, he warns in the Market Call that "prices may not follow them," particularly as the market enters its slowest time of the year around a mid-term election cycle. Woods says that the stock market has seen a healthy rotation, but he expects a pullback before a year-end rally; in the meantime, he warns against chasing rallies. Adam Mead of Mead Capital Management and Watchlist Investing — author of "The Complete Financial History of Berkshire Hathaway" — talks about the evolution of legendary investors Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger, how the company they ran is changing with Buffett's retirement and the legacy they will; have in the decades ahead. The new edition of the book was inspired after Mead saw Buffett at Berkshire's annual meeting after the nonagenarian announced his retirement.

However, earnings from Netflix (NFLX), ASML (ASML), and big banks have potential to breathe new life into Wall Street.

In this episode of Money Matters, brought to you by Greenberg Financial Group, the team breaks down the ongoing tensions and the deals taking shape between the US and Iran, and why that has sent oil tumbling back down toward normal levels. We talk through how that drop is already giving the economy some breathing room, and why cheaper oil tends to work its way through almost everything else over time. That ties straight into earnings season, which is right around the corner. We get into how lower oil could ease costs for a lot of companies as they head into reporting, and why this is one of the bigger reasons there is real anticipation that inflation could start cooling as those savings ripple through industry after industry. As always, we keep you up to date on the AI revolution, because the story seems to shift every single week. We go through the various industries and companies in the middle of it all, where things have been heading, and the trends we are watching most closely right now to help make sense of the bigger picture. It is an information-packed episode, and we close it out with a couple of planning strategies that can help take your finances to the next level.

Episode 304 reunites The Analysts — Remarkable Retail's celebrated panel of Forrester's Sucharita Kodali, Guggenheim's Simeon Siegel, and GlobalData's Neil Saunders — to take stock of retail coming out of earnings season. Steve Dennis and Michael LeBlanc open on the paradox of 2026: results are largely strong, sentiment is dismal. Simeon argues the link between the two is "tenuous at best" — people talk one way and spend another. Neil has the data: roughly 60% of shoppers who expect the economy to worsen still spent more than a year ago, propped up by spring tax refunds that won't repeat. Then the K-shaped economy. Higher-income households drive most of the real volume growth; middle-income shoppers prop up value growth mainly because prices are higher. Sucharita revisits "peak ambiguity" and the "vibe session," noting record sales barely outrun stubborn inflation. The panel unpacks the standouts — Ross's 17% comp, Victoria's Secret up 15% — and debates GLP-1's role in surging apparel and beauty: wardrobe replacement, new confidence, trading up to statement pieces. On turnarounds, Simeon lands the episode's sharpest thesis: brands "ubiquitize" and peak around $3–4 billion in the US. Lululemon got too big, over-distributed, and over-earning — so the bad sales have to "walk out the door" before the brand can re-elevate, the same lens that frames Nike's long reset. He and Sucharita draw the Gap parallel ahead of Simeon's on-stage interview with Mickey Drexler, noting Old Navy now dwarfs Gap itself. Neil makes the case for Macy's under Tony Spring — basics fixed first, satisfaction and visitation improving — while Steve stays skeptical of the pace. Next, the DTC reckoning. Simeon reframes his old "DTC is not all it's cracked up to be" call as "anti-anti-wholesale": outside high-margin luxury, nearly every brand needs a healthy wholesale business — and stores remain the best channel because "the customer is your employee." Sucharita pushes back on the AI narrative, reminding everyone it's far more than generative hype, as the panel digs into why scaled players — Amazon, Walmart, Costco, off-price — keep compounding through retail media, marketplaces, and flywheel economics. It closes on the wealth effect, trillion-dollar market caps, and whether a market correction could rattle high-end spending — then rapid-fire hot takes: brands to watch (Cozey, Ross Stores, Goyard) and what's on each analyst's radar, from inflation and surging oil prices to a quiet "middle of the doughnut" news lull and an election year's hunt for stability.

Chris Maxey of Wealthspire says corporate America continues to show impressive strength this earnings season, with growth extending far beyond just the biggest AI-driven names.While artificial intelligence remains the dominant market theme, Maxey notes that earnings growth has been broad-based across companies of all sizes. Despite elevated valuations among mega-cap stocks, he believes strong jobs data, resilient retail sales, and a potential easing of tensions with Iran could keep market momentum intact.Maxey also sees opportunity in small- and mid-cap stocks, arguing their lower valuations could position them to benefit if the rally broadens out.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

This week on “Henssler Money Talks,” the hosts begin with the latest market developments, breaking down a fresh round of Big Tech earnings and the Fed's decision to hold rates steady as investors look for clues on what comes next. From there, the conversation turns to artificial intelligence—one of the largest investment themes in today's market—as the team explores the growing demands on energy and infrastructure, the environmental impact of data centers, and whether the pace of the AI buildout may begin to shift.They also tackle a question many homebuyers are facing right now: how much house is too much? Just because you can qualify for a certain price doesn't mean it fits your broader financial life, and stretching for a home can come with trade-offs that aren't always obvious upfront. Finally, they revisit the classic 60/40 portfolio—why it's taken criticism in recent years, where it may still hold value, and why a needs-based approach focused on timing, liquidity, and real-world spending goals may offer a more practical path forward than any one-size-fits-all allocation.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C. Smith, CFP®, CEPA, and D.J. Barker, CWS®, and Kelly-Lynne Scalice, a seasoned communicator and host, on Henssler Money Talks as they explore key financial strategies to help investors navigate market uncertainty.

Welcome back to the Trading Justice podcast as Matt and Mark break down a market being driven by geopolitical tension while quietly shifting underneath the surface. War headlines continue to dominate sentiment and take up the oxygen in the room, but the technical structure is beginning to change. After weeks of downside pressure, the market is showing signs of balance with improving support and a shift in behavior that could open the door to a new phase. The conversation then turns to earnings season, where expectations remain strong despite uncertainty.
