Ep. 117 | Bullish on Soup

About this episode

The episode discusses elite psychology, inflation, branding of the cosmos, and trading strategies with a focus on Campbell's Soup.

In this episode, we open up by checking in on the psychology of the elite and the Jeffrey Epstein files, before pivoting to a lesson on inflation and vocabulary: if you only have $45 million, you aren't a millionaire—you are just a "thousand-thousandaire". Later, we tackle the branding crisis of the cosmos. "The Solar System" is a boring name, and we investigate whether the galaxy owes trademark royalties to the Mars candy company for the use of "Milky Way". We also brainstorm better corporate sponsors for the universe, like Nabisco or Chiquita. Finally, we get into the "guru" section. I give an update on my trading app, OptionsAware, which "still sucks" but helps me rank daily opportunities. I explain why I'm selling puts, hedging my bets, and why—despite everything—I remain incredibly bullish on Campbell's Soup. Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qt85u2Dmoro
