About this episode

Danny Moses reunites with former partners Porter Collins and Vincent Daniel to discuss trading strategies amid current market conditions.

Danny Moses reunites with former partners Porter Collins and Vincent Daniel to discuss trading and positioning amid a fluid backdrop including Middle East conflict and Iran de-escalation headlines, quarter-end effects, and how energy infrastructure drives both the war’s stakes and market reactions. The group frames the key macro inputs as oil, interest rates, and the dollar, arguing higher rates and volatility pressure equity multiples, while government debt and potential Fed/Treasury actions support their bullish gold thesis and preference for cheap gold miners. They debate Mag 7 reflex rallies driven by bearish positioning, rotation risks for energy, private credit/PE firm opportunities and regulatory threats, and provide cautious updates on Fannie/Freddie preferreds. They close with Masters picks and betting strategies, including Xander Schauffele, Fitzpatrick, and others.
