  • Market News, Tariffier Keeps Tariffing, And, Does your Portfolio Have a Caitlin Clark?
    May 23 2025

    James discusses the current market news and dives deep into short interest- A very powerful tool to see if all the hate for a company is the real deal or just word salad from someone on CNBC. Also, James discusses how desigining a portfolio is a lot like being the captian on the playground having to pick teams- Sometimes it is the short chubby guy who is the best player, but you just can't tell until you see him in action. Similarly, it is the boring company that earns you the most return. You won't know until the game begins.
