In this episode, Kyle sits down with Cam to break down another piece of his trading system: the RSI strategy.Unlike Gap and Go, which is built around momentum and breakouts, this setup is a mean-reversion strategy. The idea is simple: find strong stocks that are temporarily oversold, then look for the bounce.Cam walks through how he uses a two-period RSI, why he looks for signals below 10, and how he exits once RSI recovers. He also explains why this works better on large-cap, institutionally supported names (especially Nasdaq 100 stocks) and why it falls apart when applied to smaller, lower-quality names.The conversation also covers how RSI fits into a broader portfolio of strategies alongside Gap and Go, Close/Open, and Opening Range Break. Cam explains why diversifying by strategy can create a smoother equity curve, keep capital working in different market conditions, and reduce reliance on any single setup.They also get into the practical side: how to size the trade, why earnings create the biggest tail risk, whether stop losses help or hurt, how options can be used to define risk, what delta and expiration ranges make sense, and why selling puts may be another way to express the same idea.This episode is a deeper look at building a full trading system... Not just finding one setup but stacking strategies that complement each other.Chapter Timestamps:00:00 — Why Diversifying Strategies Matters00:49 — RSI Strategy Overview and Where the Signal Comes From03:22 — Close/Open, Overnight Returns, and Unused Capital05:17 — Applying RSI to Individual Stocks06:30 — Entry and Exit Rules for the RSI Setup07:35 — Why RSI Works Better on Large-Cap Names09:27 — Filters: Nasdaq 100, 200-Day Strength, and Moving Averages10:40 — Strategy Diversification: Gap and Go, Close/Open, and RSI13:19 — Choosing Between RSI and Gap and Go15:24 — Managing Risk Without Traditional Stop Losses18:31 — Coca-Cola Example: RSI Signal, Options, and Rolling Winners20:10 — Using Options to Define Risk24:06 — Volatility, IV Crush, and Selling Puts27:12 — Backtesting, Survivorship Bias, and AI29:15 — Sizing Correctly, Avoiding Earnings, and Final RulesSponsors:Our podcast is sponsored by Sue Maki at Fairway Independent Mortgage (MLS# 206048).

Screenwriter and producer David Kajganich (Suspiria, Bones and All) joins Michael Phillips to test a provocative rule of adaptation from filmmaker Whit Stillman: "You owe everything to the movie and nothing to the original [source]."But what about the opposite approach? As the Coen brothers once joked about adapting Cormac McCarthy's No Country for Old Men: "One of us types into the computer while the other holds the spine of the book flat." Between those two extremes lies the art of adaptation.Drawing on more than two decades of adapting novels, memoirs, plays, and films, Kajganich explores when fidelity serves a movie, when it becomes a trap, and why great adaptations sometimes have to break the bones of the original work. As you'd expect, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey enters the conversation, along with Howards End, The Shining, The Zone of Interest, and Where the Wild Things Are.Is the best adaptation the one that faithfully recreates its source? Or the one that expresses something new? Join the conversation: email themovieracket@filmspotting.netSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In 2007, the Coen Brothers made a thriller set in 1980 that somehow captured an American dread that hadn't fully arrived yet. Critic Hugo Emmerzael and academic Dan Hassler-Forest return to No Country for Old Men — the coin toss, the deaths that happen offscreen, the sheriff who solves nothing — to ask how a film everybody already loves quietly called the next twenty years.Hugo and Dan get into the film's nihilism, its collapse of the Western hero and detective who restores order, and the strange afterlife of Javier Bardem's iconic Anton Chigurh: from Oscar winner to right-wing meme. JD Vance has even used Chigurh's monologue in a political speech, while Pete Hegseth apparently mistook Pulp Fiction for the Bible.And what does No Country for Old Men have in common with Euphoria? What felt like a disturbing vision of a society emptied of values in 2007 can now feel less like a warning than a description of everyday life.Get tickets to ⁠⁠Cine Of The Times: No Country For Old Men⁠⁠ @ LAB111A LAB111 production.

This week, Sarah sits down with Reshma Saujani—New York Times bestselling author, founder of Girls Who Code, and the founder of Moms First! Inspired by Reshma's new documentary No Country for Mothers, this episode explores why motherhood in America can feel uniquely difficult. From the crushing cost of childcare and the lack of paid family leave to the impossible expectations placed on modern moms, Reshma makes the case that the challenges so many mothers blame themselves for are actually the result of a broken system—not personal failure.In this episode, we cover:Why motherhood in America feels so uniquely difficultHow the childcare crisis and lack of paid leave affect every familyThe "momcession" and why mothers are leaving the workforceHow culture wars distract us from real solutionsWhy motherhood is a public policy issue—not an individual failureWhat Moms First is doing to create change, and how you can get involvedThis is such an important discussion!

Somewhere north of Boston, a classically trained mime has been stripping down to a Speedo, coating himself in cooking oil, and doing calisthenics next to strangers' daughters in state parks. Forty times. He keeps getting arrested and nobody has broken his nose even once, which David and Brad argue says everything you need to know about where this country's backbone went. From there it's a short walk to Iran, where the mullahs keep asking for "a little space" every time the bombing gets uncomfortable, and the guys war-game what it would actually take to finish the job, from taking Kargh Island to admitting nobody's lined up to run the place afterward.

On the radio show this week, we start by exploring a powerful new documentary film from Moms First that highlights structural barriers and challenges mothers face in America. After that, we discuss the concerning attacks on vital food, nutrition, and healthcare programs – and how to counter misleading narratives. Next, we delve into critical issues like the childcare and affordability crisis. Finally, we close the show with insights from a new book on how to transition from mere presence to impactful power.

Editor Katie McQuerrey has collaborated with Joel and Ethan Coen on several significant films over the past 25 years, including Intolerable Cruelty, No Country for Old Men, A Serious Man, True Grit, and Inside Llewyn Davis. Their partnership began during the Coens' transition from film to digital – a period that also saw major changes to their editing process and suite. Katie's work transcends a unique range of genres and styles. Her credits include Matthew Barney's six-hour opera film River of Fundament; the road films Driveways and Wanderland; Roger Waters' concert documentaries Roger Waters: The Wall (2014) and Us + Them (2019); X, the short film directed by Josh Brolin; Naked Singularity, starring John Boyega; and Asphalt City (formerly Black Flies), starring Sean Penn, Tye Sheridan, and Michael Pitt. Asphalt City marked her third collaboration with director Jean-Stéphane Sauvaire, following Punk and A Prayer Before Dawn. In television, Katie has also edited episodes of Human Giant, the cult classic The Andy Milonakis Show, and George & Tammy. Her most recent project, De Gaulle: Résistance, premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2026. Directed by Antonin Baudry and starring Simon Abkarian as Charles de Gaulle, the film chronicles de Gaulle's emergence as one of the defining military and political figures of World War II France. Adapted by Baudry and Bérénice Vila from Julian Jackson's biography A Certain Idea of France: The Life of Charles de Gaulle, Résistance is the first installment of an ambitious two-part epic, preceding De Gaulle: Liberté, which opened theatrically across France on June 26, 2026. In our conversation, we discussed Katie's multicultural background; the profound impact of seeing Apocalypse Now at a young age; her path to becoming one of Hollywood's most sought-after editors and collaborating with Joel and Ethan Coen; and her experience editing De Gaulle through an international post-production process spanning France and the United States.Opening Credits: Pierce Murphy - Persimmon I CC BY; Pierce Murphy - Among The Stars I CC BY.

The debut collaborative album from doPE—a project by The Doors' drummer John Densmore and Public Enemy's Chuck D—is titled no country for old men. The 2026 Record Store Day (RSD) exclusive release features the 2026 RSD Song of the Year, "every tick tick tick". do-Doors PE = Public Enemy The project's origins trace back to a 2014 Record Store Day panel, where the two music legends first met. A year later, Chuck D reached out to Densmore with a simple pitch: “You've got the beats, I've got the rhymes, let's make doPE”. The resulting record blends spoken word, rhythm, and raw social commentary to bridge generations of musical rebellion. Maggie & John discuss the project and listen to tracks together with John's play by play insight into the songs & messages. We also discuss the recent Bruce Springsteen American Music Honors concert where The Doors were honored. The Bruce Springsteen American Honors program—formally called American Music Honors—is an annual awards and celebration event created and presented by the Bruce Springsteen Archives & Center for American Music.

I had the honor of meeting Thee Gloria Steinem last week because of an incredible organization called Moms First, that's working for practical policy change to make motherhood sustainable for Moms via universal childcare and paid family leave. I wanted to share my experience, and my thoughts on Motherhood in America for you all, so you can feel seen, hopefully deeply validated, and fired up to join in this effort that needs your assistance. I explained the purpose of the Moms First organization and their documentary "No Country for Mothers," and how you can freely become involved, inspired and create more values-aligned community in your area of the world. I gave a little history lesson about Gloria, because most of us weren't adulting during her prime, and in my view, everything about her is illuminating and inspiring. And then I answered 5 talking questions that were the center of the conversation I was privileged to be a part of last week at her apartment. Thank you for letting me share my experience with you, and for being here, and who you are. If you would like to host your own screening and become more involved with Moms First (YOU SHOULD), here is their information: https://momsfirst.us/doc/

Hell or High Water is one of the most perfectly written movies ever made… and somehow nobody talks about it. We break down how Taylor Sheridan built the dying cowboy way of life directly into the DNA of this film and why every single character, even the smallest ones, feels like somebody you actually know. We talk about Jeff Bridges delivering one of the best performances of his entire career as a retiring ranger who can't quite let go. We get into Ben Foster's insane method acting and the wild lengths he goes to for every role he takes. And we discuss how this movie got four Oscar nominations and walked away with nothing, which honestly just makes us more pissed off about it.Chapters:00:00 Announcements & intro0:54 Some of the most real characters on screen11:41 The theme effects every part of this movie17:33 The coolest side character there is19:45 Chris Pine stepping out of the usual22:39 Breaking down the opening scene26:17 The beautifully bad brotherly love30:47 Ben Foster's insane method acting practices42:47 No Country vibes45:28 The perfectly written dialogue47:57 In praise of Jeff Bridges53:23 2016 tough year to win an award56:00 How Taylor Sheridan wrote this movie59:09 A complete rushed production1:02:39 Smart editing choices in this movie1:06:11 Townsfolk have never been more ready1:15:09 Our final thoughts

This is the freedom no country can hand you, and no fireworks can celebrate. It is not the open sea where you answer to no one and drown alone, but the net of the love of Christ, where you are held so fast you cannot be lost. The free conscience, finally forgiven, is not the one that answers to nothing. It is the one that no longer has to run, because the blood of Jesus has already answered for it. You were caught alive in the water of your Baptism. You are held in that net every time the words “I forgive you” fall on your ears. You are drawn up out of the deep at this very rail, where He lays His own body and blood on your tongue and will not let you go.

It's been said that you can spot an American from a mile away. Travelers to Europe are advised to adjust their attire to blend in with locals and avoid looking so … casual. The French think Americans are loud and rude, and Europe has a long tradition of sneering at how classless we all are, even before Trump.I spent a month in Italy, and it's a beautiful place. The slow living, the long naps when all the stores shut down for hours during the day, the tiny cars, the laundry drying on the balconies, the fresh food at the Farmer's Market. I feel lucky that when I came back from Italy, I was pregnant and having my baby is the single greatest thing that has ever happened to me. But I'm also glad she grew up in America.I used to travel to France to cover the Cannes Film Festival, and again, I admired their way of life, the food especially. But every time I stayed too long, I began to miss my home in America. There is something thrilling about living in a free country that I've never felt anywhere else.It seems to me that if you are born here, you make up your life as it goes along. It is not planned out for you, necessarily, although in some cases, I guess it probably is. In my case, it wasn't. I knew I could invent myself any way I wanted. And if I didn't like that version, I could reinvent myself. We're like our country, a work in progress. It's always there for the taking, that promise of opportunity.Donald Trump is all of America's freedoms wrapped up in one imperfect man. He broke through the thick layer of oppressive thought and speech and showed the world that here, you really can say anything you want - as long as some crazed totalitarian doesn't try to shoot you. That's the country I want to live in. It isn't that the greatest writing or art has come from a place like America. Plenty of great works have come from places that don't center freedom as their main objective. But once you've tasted it, you can't give it up.In his speech last night, Trump said:The American founding represents the best ideas and traditions in history by the best people, like you. You can be loyal to Karl Marx or you can be loyal to America. You can be a communist or you can be a patriot. You cannot be both. As for those who peddle Marxist lies about our heritage, tell our children that we live on stolen land or that our heroes were oppressors, they're doing something much worse than slandering our past. They are slandering and attacking our future. Not going to let that happen.They're trying to tear down the great American character to destroy the people who declared independence, who crossed the Delaware, who settled the West and conquered the skies. You know who those people are. But we will never let that happen.In America now, two stories are competing to claim the right to rule the future. Trump is telling the better story, the one America was founded on and the one we've all believed, at least up until recently, when a new wave of progressives decided that the better story paints America as a corrupt, rotten, white supremacist empire that has to be torn down to the studs and rebuilt.They must be terrified about the 2030 Census because they've decided to die on the hill of illegal immigration, which is fast becoming their most important issue. That, alongside Democratic Socialism, is a recipe for disaster.This was Bill Clinton's bummer message on the Fourth:I always thought Bill Clinton was a good president, but reading that just now makes me think he wasn't. All he's ever been able to do is point the finger at the other side and never offer any real solutions. He's not the man in the arena. He's the man on the sidelines.What I love about Trump and his supporters is how much they love America. They love it so much that they plant flags all over their homes. They admire the Founding Fathers. They call themselves Patriots. We didn't have that kind of pride on the Left when I was growing up.And even now, so many see the American flag and the love of country as dangerous, racist, bigoted, fascist. Whoever told those people that is what MAGA is about lied. They're protective of America's laws and its border. That is out of love for the country. The Left has taken almost everything from them. They've locked them out of culture, forbidden them from participating in any of their major events, dehumanized, demonized, and disenfranchised them. But the one thing they couldn't take was their citizenship. They hit the jackpot just by being born in America. To think it would be so easy for people all over the world to come here illegally and claim that prize or to come here and attempt to remake America into something it was never meant to be devalues the one thing they treasure most of all. I've always been a proud American. I've always preferred this country over any other, but only in the last few years have I understood what it means to be a Patriot, to be ready to fight for the country I love. And that is because of the people I've gotten to know on the Right.This country is worth fighting for. I might not agree with all of the policies on the Right, or even Trump himself, all of the time, but I'd rather have the future of this country in the hands of people who love it the way Trump does than people who hate it, the way so many on the Left do, just because their candidates are weak and their policies are toxic. I wanted to write 250 things I love about America, but it got too long, so this will have to do. Here are just some of the things I love:I love the interstates as part of the great legacy of Dwight D. Eisenhower.I love the Pacific Ocean because it stretches along the state. I love Catalina Island off the California Coast, where I spent many a summer with my best friend.I love seeing our history in the many cultures that came here, like Chinatown, Little Italy, Mexican food in LA, soul food in the South, Irish bars and pubs in the middle of nowhere. And yes, you can appreciate a nation of immigrants while still policing our borders now. I love how nice people are in some places, like California, Ohio, and Iowa, where they smile at you on the street.I love the weather extremes, from the dusty plains to the snowy mountains to hurricanes by the sea.I love the historic monuments from the Civil War and the Revolutionary War.I love the town squares that you can still see if you drive through the middle of America. Even though many are abandoned, they still look like hope to me.I love how each town square has a church, a post office, and a school.I love the many farmlands that blanket the Midwest.I love the small mom-and-pop coffee drive-throughs, and even the convenience of a Starbucks in nearly every town.I love Route 66 and how people still drive it and visit the forgotten places.I love the absurdity of Las Vegas, how it sprouts up impossibly in the middle of the desert.I love the American writers who helped shape our country's sense of itself - Mark Twain, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Flannery O'Connor, Richard Ford, Maya Angelou. I love the musical traditions that started here: Jazz and the Blues. And became Rock n' Roll. I love the Legend of Sleepy Hollow and the town that still remembers it.I love diners and dive bars.I love Gone with the Wind and how it's still the highest-grossing film of all time when adjusted for inflation. I love The Twilight Zone and find it timeless, as relevant today as it was in the 1950s.I love the footprints at the (Grauman's) Chinese Theater in Hollywood.I love the US military and its devotion to the country. I love the wildflowers that bloom in California every year.I love soft-serve ice cream at the DQ.I love Levi's.I love New York pizza.I love Solvang in California.I love driving up the Oregon coast. I love the songs of Bob Dylan.I love the tap dancing of Fred Astaire.I love how anyone can be a star on YouTube, no matter where they come from, but YouTube couldn't have been invented anywhere but America.I love how I could build a business as a single mom in a one-room guesthouse in Van Nuys, and that business would, five years later, become profitable because I worked hard and had a good idea. And then, when my career went up in flames in 2024 because I voted for Trump, I could build another career on Substack because that is what America is all about - inventing and reinventing yourself.I love the innovative spirit that built America in real life and online.I love reading about the early settlers, the Puritans, and the homesteaders, how much they sacrificed to help make America a home. And I love the history of the Native Americans, too, even if so much of it remains a tragedy now. I love high-speed internet and Wi-Fi that are available almost everywhere, and if they're not, I have a hotspot.I love the old American cars that were not just exceptional but beautiful.I love the tradition of baseball.I love that people faithfully watch football, even if I don't.I love the tradition of sourdough bread all over social media.I love that the best basketball players in the world are from here.I love that every state is different from one to the next.I love Harper's Ferry, how it's frozen in time.I love that we found a way to move on from the trauma of our past with slavery and how we fought a bloody Civil War to end it. I love that we were the good guys in World War II. We did the right thing in entering the war and helping the Allies win. I love that you can be anything here. The door is always open. It's up to you to walk through it.I love that America is a Christian nation, and you can see that if you drive across it. But it's also a country that stands for freedom of religion, too.I love the American comedians: Groucho Marx, George Carlin, Richard Pryor, Steve Martin, and Johnny Carson.I love that the best films from the 1970s were American movies, like The Godfather, The French Connection, Taxi Driver, and Network. But I also love more modern masterpieces by American filmmakers, like No Country for Old Men and Sideways.I love that people play the lottery, thinking one day they will hit the jackpot. They never will, but they can still dream.I love Thanksgiving and the way we celebrate it in America, which is to say, all together as one big dysfunctional family.I love the tradition of Halloween and how every October, the pumpkins and costumes come out. I love the way the weather changes. I love the Declaration of Independence and those who dared to build this wild, untamed, optimistic work in progress. I love that America is always looking to the future to find a better version of itself and its people. I love that so many Americans still believe in the American Dream.I love watching the movie Jaws on the 4th of July.I love that people watch fireworks, even if I never do, because they traumatize my dogs.I love that we have a holiday just to celebrate the day we became a country, a ragtag group of deplorable revolutionaries who set out to build a brand new country. Oh, the audacity of it. I love living here and would not want to live anywhere else. Happy 250th Birthday, my beloved country.Happy 4th to you, dear readers. Thanks for everything. I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.sashastone.com/subscribe

We revisited movies that leave emotional dents in the audience. We reflected on the particular impact of Bone Tomahawk, Memento, and No Country for Old Men, each of which demonstrates that filmmakers possess an alarming ability to rearrange our nervous systems using little more than editing, tension, and a refusal to provide comforting explanations. That discussion led naturally to sports culture, which in America occasionally transforms victory into an elaborate public works project involving overturned objects and insurance claims. We traded stories about celebrations that escalated into city-wide chaos, highlighting the peculiar civic tradition of expressing affection for a team by setting fire to things the team had never asked anyone to ignite. Along the way, we examined regional rivalries and the enduring belief that residents of other cities are fundamentally misguided people whose sports preferences reveal deep character flaws. The focus widened to the curious presence of protestors outside Christian rock concerts, a niche activity requiring both logistical commitment and a sophisticated understanding of where Christian rock concerts are being held. We considered how these groups operate and the strange optics of objecting to music performed by people who are, on paper, already in broad ideological agreement with them. We considered how analogies work and whether they can be trained the same way people train themselves to catch flying Frisbees or remember where they parked. Through improv exercises and whatever everyday objects happened to be nearby, we discovered that the human brain is apparently eager to connect unrelated things, which is both the foundation of creativity and the reason someone eventually compares municipal budgeting to a crockpot. We also explored the paradox of songwriting, where jokes sometimes become hits and carefully engineered masterpieces occasionally disappear without a trace. Creating under pressure requires a willingness to chase ideas that initially sound ridiculous, while popularity itself remains stubbornly indifferent to effort, expertise, or anyone's carefully developed five-year plan. The same unpredictability surfaced in conversations about celebrity opinions, social media bans, and the mysterious mechanics by which certain people become influential while others post into the digital equivalent of an abandoned mall food court. By the end, we had connected improv exercises, traumatic movie endings, championship riots, concert protestors, songwriting deadlines, curmudgeonly tendencies, and the fragile economics of internet fame.

In this Dailycast episode of Wrestling Coast to Coast, Chris Maitland and Justin McClelland return to an old favorite when they review Wrestling Revolver's No Country for Old Mancer, but all is not well in this once cherished promotion. We look at the good (the rise of heel faction The Algorithm), the bad (tag titles defended in trios matches), and the ugly (too many chair shots to the head). Mance Warner defends the World Title against Alex Colon in a street fight. BDE defends the Remix Title in a (wait for it) Street Fight. And Ace Austin, Alan Angels, and Jeffery John have a pretty great three-way that is not a street fight! For VIP listeners, we venture to Jersey Championship Wrestling for Terry Yaki's biggest singles match to date, challenging Charles Mason for the JCW Title and a post-match angle that is TOO BIG for JCW.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/pwtorch-dailycast--3276210/support.

“Power trumps money fundamentally. And I think we've seen the extent to which these companies are very subservient to the US government. Because the US government can break them in an instant.” — Jack Watling on whether Anthropic and OpenAI can become geopolitical players In Cormac McCarthy's 2005 novel No Country for Old Men, an ageing Texas sheriff finds himself outmatched by a killer operating by a logic the old rules can't contain. It's the story of a man shaped by one world, and then trying to operate in an entirely different system. That's also the situation facing many statesmen today who are having to operate in an international system where the old rules no longer apply. The British military strategist Jack Watling argues in his new book Statecraft: The New Rules of Power in a Divided World that we have moved from a monopolar world to one of intensely multipolar competition where adversaries can subvert all the premises of another state's strategy. These disruptive rules of the 21st century multipolar international system aren't entirely new. There are, for example, eerie similarities with the chaotically multipolar system that led to the First World War. But they are new to the leaders who have to apply them. So, for example, they are having to deal with Vladimir Putin who is locked into an eighth-century Orthodox Holy Russian Empire fantasy. Or with the impulsive and disruptive Donald Trump whose only goal, it sometimes seems, is to subvert all the rules of the old world. These are Jack Watling's new rules of power in a divided world. New statecraft for old men. Or maybe old statecraft for new men. Five Takeaways •       The Rules Are New to the Leaders, Not the World: Watling's thesis: many of the principles in his book are old, as a historian he knows that. But they are new to the current crop of political leaders because they were formed in a monopolar world where America had primacy, crises were resolved, and the status quo was restored. We are now in a period of intense interstate competition where changes are permanent — the interventions that are being made fundamentally shift the trend. That does require a new way of thinking. The tragedy is that the leaders who most need to think in new ways — Putin and Trump in particular — are the least capable of it. •       Putin vs Trump: Two Different Kinds of Fallibility: Putin has locked himself into a rubric of looking at the world through the lens of the Orthodox Holy Russian Empire — a framework that doesn't align with how anyone else reads the map. He's not a pragmatic dealmaker; when you get him to the table, as Trump found in Alaska, he starts referring back to the eighth century. Trump is very different: much less cautious, much more impulsive, skilled at making the conversation happen on his terms by disrupting everything around him. The problem with impulsive rather than deliberate is that he has no clear idea of where he wants to get to. Both fallible. Neither predictable. •       The WWI Parallel: Over By Christmas: Watling's most sobering analogy: when we look at 1914, nobody thought it would become what it became. The assumption was over by Christmas. It grew out of any capacity to control it. Today, the rules between the great powers don't reflect where power actually sits. The capacity for a conflagration — Taiwan being the obvious tipping point — to suddenly trigger a series of escalations around the world is very real. We have to be cognisant that risk is latent in the system. The outcome we most wish to avoid is also the most mutually calamitous one. That's not a guarantee it won't happen. •       Power Trumps Money — Even Trumpian Power Trumps Trumpian Money: Andrew asks whether Anthropic and OpenAI could become geopolitical players — more powerful than middle powers like Brazil or Japan. Watling's answer: no. Russian oligarchs made this mistake in the 1990s. They thought that because they had huge amounts of money and controlled valuable resources they could play geopolitically. They were very quickly subsumed by the state. These tech companies are very subservient to the US government, which can break them in an instant. The pun lands perfectly: even Trumpian power trumps Trumpian money. •       How Smaller States Build Leverage: Stay Off the Menu: One of the book's central arguments: how do smaller states shape world events when dwarfed by superpowers? Watling's answer: leverage is not just military. It is economic, informational, reputational. The UK spends billions on aircraft carriers it struggles to support at sea — a good illustration of how a state can mistake the form of power for its substance. Smaller states that build genuine leverage — through control of chokepoints, indispensable relationships, asymmetric capabilities — can stay off the menu even in a world dominated by great powers. That requires statecraft. Not just military spending. About the Guest Jack Watling is Senior Research Fellow for Land Warfare at the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) in London.

In this episode, Cam and Joel go deeper into the force behind the Gap and Go strategy: momentum.Cam breaks down what momentum actually means in the market, why stocks can get repriced violently when institutions realize they were wrong, and how that repricing shows up through gaps, volume, and continuation. Using examples like AGL and HWM, they walk through why some stocks keep running long after most traders would have taken profits.The conversation also digs into the data behind momentum trading, including R multiples, maximum favorable excursion, Monte Carlo testing, and why a small percentage of trades can account for the majority of returns.They also cover one of the hardest questions in trading: when do you take profits, and when do you let the trade keep working?Later in the episode, Cam explains how he's using AI, backtesting, and his own trade history to study momentum, refine his process, and better understand where rules end and human judgment begins.⚠️ Best experienced on Spotify or YouTube - Cam is sharing charts throughout the episode.
