Podcasts about tech bubble

Mike and Ryan break down the bond market signals that are starting to flash risk off: a standout 30 year Treasury auction, falling real yields, and a 2 year yield below the Fed funds rate. They map today's narrowing stock market breadth and Mag7 dispersion to the early stages of the dot com setup, then steel man the bull case with AI capex, bigger tax refunds, and potential tariff stimulus. Finally, they explain why Bitcoin may be a leading liquidity indicator for TradFi and walk through the portfolio positioning, including the heavy cash stance and what would trigger the next fat pitch.----

After a week of significant drops across many AI and tech-related stocks, we speak to Nobel Prize winner Daron Acemoglu, and economist Cary Leahey of Columbia University in New York, to examine whether the tech bubble could be set to burst. With Nike under investigation by Donald Trump's administration over claims it has hidden evidence that the company is using its so-called diversity, equity and inclusion policies to discriminate against white workers, Ed Butler speaks to Stefan Padfield of the Free Enterprise Project. Elsewhere, Beijing says Panama will pay 'a heavy price' for a court ruling against a Hong Kong port owner, and we look at how a growing trend has led to Kenya's central bank banning people from using bank notes to make floral-like bouquets and decorations.

Diese Woche stürzen wir uns im Input auf ein Thema, das gerade die Tech-Bubble elektrisiert: den OpenClaw-Bot. Vielleicht kennt ihr ihn noch unter seinen früheren Namen Clawdbot oder Moltbot. Für die einen ist er ein echter Gamechanger unter den KI-Assistenten, für die anderen ein Albtraum aus Datenschutz- und IT-Sicht. Kaum ein Tool wird gerade so gefeiert und gleichzeitig so heftig kritisiert. Warum geht dieser Bot gerade komplett durch die Decke? Was ist daran wirklich neu und was vielleicht nur cleveres Marketing? Und vor allem: Warum sollte man bei all dem Hype sehr genau hinschauen?

Every major technological revolution has come with a bubble: railroads, electricity, dot-com. Is it AI's turn? With investments skyrocketing and market valuations reaching the trillions, the stakes are enormous. But are we witnessing a genuine revolution—or the early stages of a spectacular crash?Princeton professor Arvind Narayanan joins Luigi Zingales and Bethany McLean to explain why he believes AI's transformative impact is overstated. Drawing on his book AI Snake Oil, co-authored with Sayash Kapoor, Narayanan argues that capitalism's incentives can distort technological progress, pushing hype faster than reality can deliver. They examine how deregulation, geopolitical competition, and private control over data shape the trajectory of AI's development.They also explore what could happen if the bubble bursts: massive market shocks, exposed structural weaknesses in the economy, and a wave of painful restructuring that could echo the dot-com crash—but on a far larger scale. It's a conversation that cuts through the hype and asks what's at stake when an entire economy bets on one technology. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The world's largest tech-focused venture capital fund. And the man behind it is Masayoshi Son, often referred to as Masa.At 16, Masa moved to California, drawn by the entrepreneurial spirit of Silicon Valley.Before he turned 21 years old, Son sold his first company— a multilingual translator bought by Sharp for about $1 million.Masa returned to Japan and founded SoftBank as a software distribution company. In 1995, Masa made one of his first bold investments— a $100 million for a 30% stake in Yahoo. In 1999, Masa made an even bigger move, investing $20 million in Alibaba, a year-old e-commerce startup.Over 23 years, that investment turned into a $72 billion gain, making it one of the most successful tech investments ever.In 2014, he brought in Alok Sama who had a key role in some of SoftBank's biggest successes, like the $32 billion acquisition of ARM and the $59 billion Sprint-T-Mobile merger.In this episode of the NEON Show, Alok Sama, takes us behind the scenes of his journey at SoftBank, where he played a crucial role in shaping the group's global investments and strategy. He shares insights into working alongside Masa, managing the Vision Fund, and the challenges of betting on transformative entrepreneurs.Check out Alok Sama's book,  The Money Trap: Lost Illusions Inside the Tech Bubble - https://www.amazon.in/Money-Trap-Alok-Sama/dp/9361134337Timestamps0:00 - Trailer1:13 - Alok's career, and Money Trap2:20 - Transition to SoftBank and the motivation behind Money Trap3:29 - what Alok thinks about Nikesh Arora and Masayoshi Son5:07 - Masayoshi Son's visionary mindset and why Alok admired him6: 40 - Why Alok values intellectual curiosity in people and himself7:50 - Alok's entrepreneurial journey post-Morgan Stanley09:30 - The meaning behind Money Trap and reflections on money12:30 - Masa Son's struggle growing up and the freemium coffee model17:00 - Alok's last year at SoftBank and decision to leave18:08 - Alok's relationship with Nikesh Arora20:10 - Delhi roots, and family time21:20 - Alok's view on vulnerabilities 27:20 - Masa Son's character and commitment to backing entrepreneurs fully31:10 - Valuation lessons in technology investments34:20 - Son's early bets on AI and his timing challenges37:30 -  Joined SoftBank to impress Alok's teenage son and connect with family40: 10 - experience of writing a book43:10 - Masa's thesis on India-----Hi, I am your host Siddhartha! I have been an entrepreneur from 2012-2017 building two products AddoDoc and Babygogo. After selling my company to SHEROES, I and my partner Nansi decided to start up again. But we felt unequipped in our skillset in 2018 to build a large company. We had known 0-1 journeys from our startups but lacked the experience of building 1-10 journeys. Hence was born The Neon Show (Earlier 100x Entrepreneur) to learn from founders and investors, the mindset to scale yourself and your company. This quest still keeps us excited even after 5 years and doing 200+ episodes.We welcome you to our journey to understand what goes behind building a super successful company. Every episode is done with a very selfish motive, that I and Nansi should come out as a better entrepreneur and professional after absorbing the learnings.-----Check us out on:Website: https://neon.fund/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theneonshoww/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/beneon/Twitter: https://x.com/TheNeonShowwConnect with Siddhartha on:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/siddharthaahluwalia/Twitter: https://x.com/siddharthaa7-------------This show is for informational purposes only.

Kelly sits down with Alok Soma, the former President and CFO of SoftBank Group International to discuss his new book ‘The Money Trap: Lost Illusions Inside the Tech Bubble.” “Impressing powerful men is a core skill for investment bankers.” “The world romanticizes the causal relationship between adversity and breakout success.”  “Money doesn't talk, it swears.”

Join Moe and Javaid Ansari as they discuss the latest rotation in the stock market. What are the key earnings/macroeconomic data for this week? Will rates stay higher? Does this AI Boom have more room to run, or is it replicating the Tech Bubble of the early 2000's? Listen to today's podcast to get these answers and more! 

Zach Jonson, chief investment officer at Stack Financial Management, says that while the stock market has been moving to record highs, "it wasn't healthy." He says that market valuations are overblown, with concentration in the index being more of a concern than at any time in history, which means that current conditions are lining up with some rare time periods, most notably the tech bubble days of the late 1990s, which ended turning ugly when the bubble burst. That's in contrast with the view from Eric Wallerstein, chief markets strategist at Yardeni Research, who says the Dow Jones Industrial Average will reach 60,000 and the Standard & Poor's 500 will hit 8,000 before the end of the current decade, and while that run could end up ugly at that point, any downturns in the interim are buying opportunities. Plus, John Cole Scott, president of Closed-End Fund Advisors — chairman of the Active Investment Company Alliance — provides an update on what's happened with closed-end funds through the first half of 2024, and Jaime Dunaway-Seale discusses Clever Real Estate's Gen Z Home Buyer Report, which showed that 60 percent of the generation just entering the workforces thinks they will never own a home.
