Today’s show starts with a deep dive into one of everyone’s favorite topics: uranium…  I explain why the uranium bull market is only just beginning… and how artificial intelligence (AI) is driving it. I also share one popular uranium stock you should avoid at all costs… and two no-brainer investments to play uranium’s upside. Speaking of stocks to avoid, I also break down why one beloved AI stock is faltering… and what to buy instead. Disney reported better-than-expected results this week, but the stock is selling off following the news. I share the key question all Disney shareholders should be asking… and highlight another stock that’s a much better bet than the House of Mouse. Thank you to all who attended our live event, Crypto 2024: After the Halving—where I dug into crypto’s potential to create life-changing wealth for investors… and where I’m putting my money right now.

Thank you to everyone who joined our live event last night—Crypto 2024: After the Halving—where I shared how to position yourself for outsized returns in crypto over the next 18 months. If you missed it, you can check out the replay here: https://secure.curzioresearch.com/crypto24-after-halving/event-live.php?utm_source=Libsyn&utm_medium=240501_cci_crypto24_gy_wsu_Libsyn&utm_campaign=2404-CCI-Crypto24-GY&utm_term=inline&utm_content=Libsyn We’re about halfway through earnings season… and so far, the results have been disastrous. I highlight some dismal numbers and dreary guidance from several companies, including Starbucks (SBUX)... Paramount (PARA)... McDonald’s (MCD)... Comcast (CMCSA)... CVS (CVS)... and more.  But it’s not all bad news…  I go through some incredible results from Big Tech… and why Amazon’s (AMZN) pullback is the best sign investors could ask for.  As a final note, don’t miss tomorrow’s episode of WSU Premium, where I interview Andrew Horowitz, host of The Disciplined Investo

Tesla (TSLA) reported its latest earnings yesterday… and the results were terrible. So why is the stock soaring today? I start today’s show by looking under the hood at the difficulties Tesla faces—from lower EV demand… to high costs… to Chinese competition… And I highlight the single most important factor that continues to buoy the stock and ultimately makes Tesla a winner—regardless of headwinds. Gold stocks have been on a rollercoaster recently—the yellow metal hit new all-time highs this month before pulling back. I explain what’s behind the action… why gold bugs are dead wrong about their thesis, despite the rise in price… why I’d take profits in gold and gold stocks right now… and why Bitcoin is a much better bet. In fact, I believe crypto offers the best speculative opportunity for investors right now. Make sure to join us for part 3 of our Crypto 2024 LIVE series, After the Halving, on April 30 at 7 p.m. ET. I’ll break down how to position your portfolio for life-changing gains in the crypt

The next Bitcoin halving is right around the corner… This event has historically been super bullish for crypto. Yet, Bitcoin is trading significantly off its all-time high of just two months ago. In fact, it’s down 12% in the last week alone. The pullback has investors wondering what the hell is going on with crypto… I start today’s show by explaining why the pullback isn’t nearly as alarming as it seems… and why the halving will ultimately drive Bitcoin’s price higher.  I’m hosting my next Crypto 2024 LIVE event on April 30 at 7 p.m. ET—where I’ll break down the current crypto environment… and how to position yourself to make life-changing gains in the space. I’ll end the event with a Q&A, where I’ll answer your most pressing questions about crypto. So make sure to register and send me your questions at https://secure.curzioresearch.com/crypto24-after-halving/?utm_source=Libsyn During her CNBC appearance yesterday, U.S. Representative Maxine Waters (D) said she believes big banks are at risk.

The Fed is in a lot of trouble… While the media is claiming the economy is stronger than ever, the latest inflation data says otherwise. On today’s show, I look under the hood at the alarming numbers… why the Fed is in an impossible position when it comes to interest rates… the serious implications for our economy… and how to position your portfolio to profit from the turmoil. Since my live event a few weeks ago—The AI Story No One’s Telling—listeners have been lighting up my inbox with questions about artificial intelligence (AI). Guys, I can’t overstate just how much of a game-changer AI is going to be. In the last week alone, we’ve seen several major AI-related headlines… involving everyone from Apple to Google to Elon Musk. I just launched my brand-new advisory—Curzio AI—to help you make once-in-a-lifetime gains off this groundbreaking trend.

I start today’s show by looking at the latest Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index data—which came in better than expected.  Yet, stocks are selling off. Why? I break down what’s behind the pullback… why it puts the Fed in a tough spot… and why market conditions are incredibly dangerous right now. Disney’s (DIS) annual meeting is today—and shareholders will vote on whether billionaire and major shareholder Nelson Peltz will get two seats on the board. I explain why CEO Bob Iger doesn’t want Peltz anywhere near the board… how Disney has resorted to downright illegal actions to try to keep it from happening… and why the SEC will most likely look the other way.   Apple (AAPL) just released its new AI model, ReALM… and it’s already outperforming ChatGPT. I highlight why Apple is set to dominate the AI game… and how it’ll breathe life back into another mega-trend you might have thought was dead… It’s important to understand that AI is still in its infancy. Last week, I hosted a special live event—Th
