Eddie Ghabour notes the market "shrugging off" the "battle" between Fed member Lisa Cook and President Trump as a good thing. He believes bulls are instead focused on Fed chair Jerome Powell's commentary at Jackson Hole and prospects of a rate cut as positives for the economic outlook. When it comes to stocks, Eddie expects small cap stocks to rally further after investors experienced a "frustrating" rotation in recent months.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In this episode, Will and Adam examine former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich's comments comparing today to the Gilded Age. We acknowledge there are several similarities, including increasing wealth disparity, the emergence of disruptive technology, and widespread commingling of government with business. We specifically discuss the recent discussion around the government taking stake in public companies, which, though has a precedent, was used in the past during times of financial crisis, i.e., to keep automakers afloat during the financial crisis. We discuss the (until just recently) ebullient vibes in the stock market, and why some of the forefront of the AI revolution are starting to sound a little more cautious about what AI can deliver in the near-term. However, that has not stopped investors from returning to familiar favorites from the 2021 run-up, with this rally's best performers including: Non-profitable tech Most shorted stocks Meme stocks With Fed chair Powell on tap for Jackson Hole, we look at the recent Fed minutes, which indicating a focus more on inflation than jobs, and why that could change if job revisions continue to be revised lower. However, with the inflation effect of tariffs expected to shift from businesses to consumers soon, will the Fed have the flexibility to cut rates as much as investors currently believe? With both anecdotes and hard data indicating a struggling consumer, the Fed is in a tough spot and under continuing political pressure. We conclude with why it is important to remain systematic and focused on long-term investing success and resist the temptation of the continued gamification of stock trading, with platforms like Robin Hood now exploring the addition of traditional sports wagering alongside retail investment accounts.

On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan welcomes value investor Tobias Carlisle back to the show. Tobias is the founder and portfolio manager of Acquirers Funds, a deep-value investment firm. He's also an author and host of the Acquirers Podcast. Tobias kicks things off by discussing the "happy hunting ground" in small-cap stocks, the market narrowing in the S&P 500 Index, and the massive amounts of capital flowing into AI. He also compares the AI mania today with the dot-com boom of the late '90s, questions how AI is making money, and notes that the bottom 490 stocks in the S&P 500 have been in a "little recession" since 2022. He says this gives value investors an opportunity right now to get great names for cheap before the inevitable rebound. After that, Tobias comments on passive investing, what could be in store for the top 10 large caps, and why fears of AI destroying the jobs market are overblown. (0:00) Next, Tobias talks about his company's two funds: the Acquirers Fund (ZIG) and Acquirers Small and Micro Deep Value Fund (DEEP). He explains what he looks for when picking stocks and how he determines valuations. He also name-drops many stocks and industries that he thinks have fantastic potential over the next decade. (21:01) Finally, Tobias discusses the significance of hedge-fund shorts of the small-cap Russell 2000 Index peaking recently, plus the extreme concentration of the top 10 stocks. He notes that Nvidia now accounts for 8% of the S&P 500's market cap – the highest in history. Tobias says that valuations will eventually come back down to Earth and that not all of the Mag Seven will be top performers in the future. Citing Tesla as the weakest in the group, he points out that Chinese electric vehicles beat Tesla cars in terms of price, design, and charging times. Tobias then closes things out with a conversation about an "echo boom" of 2021, cryptocurrencies being back in favor, and the unprecedented outperformance of large caps. (37:31)

It's no secret: Nvidia's (NVDA) earnings will lead the market this week. Kevin Hincks talks about the critical report and how it's connected to many other names across the SPX and NDX. The RUT also saw a significant rally last week off bullish expectations on interest rate cuts, as Kevin weighs the likelihood of that continuing. He also touches on the U.S. buying stakes in companies like Intel (INTC) and how it signals a shift in business mentality.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Tim Quast discusses why stocks could struggle to sustain a broadening rally beyond the largest names, such as those in the S&P 500. He says less than 10% of trading volume comes from fundamental stock picking, while models and high-frequency traders drive around 75% of volume. With 90% of assets concentrated in large caps and only 5% in the Russell 2000, Quast believes it's mathematically unlikely for the market to sustain a meaningful shift into smaller stocks.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Francis Gannon looks at opportunities in small caps, arguing they've been in a recession the last few years but will begin outperforming in the second half of 2025. “You have to think about more than the Russell 2000,” he adds, comparing it to the Russell 3000. He also discusses investing in small caps internationally. He also emphasizes finding small caps that don't need exposure to capital markets to grow. Francis likes industrials and financials especially.======== 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

Greg Dean, Founder & Lead Investor, Langdon Partners, shares his outlook on Global Small Caps.

In this episode, Robert makes the case for why being wrong isn't a flaw in investing, it's the job. He shares examples of Nobel laureates, hedge fund legends, and trillion-dollar CEOs who've all missed big calls, and explains why success in markets isn't about perfection but something else entirely. From the psychology of bad trades to three bold calls he still believes in, including what's next for Bitcoin, Robert unpacks how to stay sharp without falling for perfectionism. Plus, a listener question on Buffett, Berkshire, and whether it's time to rotate out of value.

“Behind the scenes,” Eric Kelly is hearing discussions about tariffs, but everyone needs more time to see the impact. He's only a little bit long tech now because of this uncertainty. “Capex intentions have just plummeted,” he says. For later in the year, he thinks that “If the Fed can start moving…it sets the stage for us to make a broader play into small caps.”======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

"The higher we go, the more negative sentiment gets," says Eddie Ghabour. He considers the recovery off April lows the "most hated" bull rally he's seen. Eddie still expects that rally to continue in what he sees as a "non-recessionary environment" even if seasonal volatility emerges. Small caps are among the groups he expects to rally into the back half of the year.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Tobias has a unique background in social anthropology, bringing a perspective to investing that was as refreshing as it was profound. What started as a discussion about global small cap companies evolved into a deep dive into human behaviour, cultural constructs, and the art of asking the right questions.Read Ausbil's Disclaimer hereBlog post available at: https://www.sharesforbeginners.com/blog/tobias-bucks-ausbilLevel up your investing with Sharesight, Investopedia's #1 portfolio tracker for DIY investors.

Dann Ryan looks at the small cap space and highlights opportunities for investors. He warns that small caps can carry heavier debt levels with higher interest rates, and the Russell 2000 tends to be the most volatile part of the market. He allocates around 10% of his portfolio to small caps and sees a “rocky road ahead.” He likes utilities and more defensive sectors right now. He also thinks that the market will end the year higher.======== 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 – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Ed Siddell believes investors are looking past short-term market volatility and instead, focusing on the long-term picture, which he thinks could be the start of a new bull run. He attributes this confidence to the potential passage of the reconciliation bill, which would extend current tax cuts, and the expected deregulation that would follow. He also expects the Fed to lower interest rates, potentially twice this year. Siddell remains bullish on tech, financials, and smallcaps, and sees buying opportunities on dips in these sectors.======== 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 – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

“We could see a sustained period of outperformance for small caps,” argues Mike Rode. Small caps have underperformed for over a decade now. “Investors have not diversified towards the asset class,” he notes, preferring concentration in the Mag 7. However, catalysts including deregulation, M&A, IPOs and other factors hint at a potential turnaround. He thinks regional banks are particularly overlooked, and also likes biotech.======== 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

Greg Halter gives his thoughts on what the Fed will do next and how the market is holding up during rising geopolitical tensions. He expects “a couple cuts” this year but doesn't think the Fed will lower rates this week. He talks about how the huge pool of money in retirement funds influences market investments; he thinks small caps are in trouble. His picks now include Eli Lilly (LLY) and Amazon (AMZN).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.
