Stansberry Investor Hour

As a new investor, it's easy to feel intimidated by the sheer volume of financial data that's out there... But the truth is, you can make a ton of money in the stock market, without spending hours per day researching stocks... or reading hundreds of books on different investment strategies... On this week's episode, Dan invites Harris Kupperman onto the show to explain how. Harris is the founder of Praetorian Capital, a hedge fund based in Florida with a long track record of market beating performance. He's also the Chief Adventurer at AdventuresInCapitalism.com, an investment blog uncovering unique opportunities around the world. Today, he visits to talk about his shockingly simple way of investing that has a long history of producing incredible gains...  Harris says he doesn't concern himself with interest rates... He doesn't care where the next 50 BPS on the 10-year treasury yield is going... Or what the Forex rate is going to be... Instead, he looks for microtrends that are happening in society – ones tha

There's a lot of uncertainty in the crypto markets today...  Over the last couple months, we've received a big increase in crypto-related questions from Investor Hour listeners... Questions like: Could quantum computing hack the Bitcoin system, rendering it useless?  Is government regulation coming soon? And out of the literally thousands of cryptos out there... how do you choose the right one? To help answer these questions, Dan invites crypto expert, Eric Wade, back onto the show  Eric is an early internet entrepreneur, angel investor, screenwriter, and editor of the Crypto Capital newsletter here at Stansberry Research.  Eric started mining Bitcoin and Ethereum long before 99% of folks had ever even heard the term "cryptocurrencies." His Crypto Capital newsletter has had dozens of 100%+ winners and even a handful of 1,000%+ winners. He knows more about the space than just about anyone on the planet. During their conversation Dan leaves no stone unturned, asking Eric everything you've ever wondered about th

Since the bottom of the Covid market crash, on March 23, 2020, the S&P 500 is up an incredible 100%... Which begs the question... is this bull market picking up steam? Or are investors sleepwalking towards a big market crash? Shorting the market can be risky business, so to help answer these questions, Dan invites repeat guest Kevin Duffy back onto the show... Kevin co-founded Bearing Asset Management back in 2002, which is famous for warning their clients about the housing and credit bubble before the crash of 2008. Kevin and Dan discuss many of the overvalued sectors of the market... But Kevin says that though the market looks risky today, there's always great opportunities if you know where to look. In fact, Kevin talks about some industries he's been following that are just entering the mass adoption stage and could be poised for explosive growth... Plus, Kevin shares a few secrets he's learned over the years in the risky business of short selling that you won't hear anywhere else... If you've ever be

Even if you're in complete denial about the markets, it's tough to ignore the signs of extreme excess in the markets today... This year, more brokerage accounts were registered than ever before... Capital inflows are seeing outrageous all-time highs... NFTs are selling for millions... and meme stocks are more popular than ever... So, where can investors find value in the market at a time like this? On this week's episode, Dan invites special guest Stan Majcher onto the show to help answer this question... Stan comes with over 27 years of industry experience, and today he serves as portfolio manager of the Mid-Cap Value fund (HWMAX) at Hotchkis & Wiley... During their conversation, Dan and Stan discuss one corner of the market that has been almost completely forgotten by most investors.

He says many investments in this space a

In the final stages of the bull market, thoughtful investing is typically replaced with reckless speculation...   And today, we're seeing warning signs in nearly every corner of the market...  Investors everywhere are throwing caution to the wind in hopes of finding the hottest tech stock, SPAC offering, or cryptocurrency that'll help them get rich quick...

Thomas explains how his firm uses 8 special criteria to separate the hype from the legitimate long-term opportunitie

Dan opens this week's rant completely beside himself, as he shares the latest story of jaw-dropping excess in the market. But this isn't the story of your typical cryptocurrency pump and dump... Or a message board banding together to try to create the next "meme stock..." It comes from a business you'd never expect in a million years... and Dan calls it the single most insane example of speculative froth he's EVER seen in the markets. Then on this week's interview, Dan invites Ken McAtamney onto the show. Ken is the head of the global equity team and a portfolio manager for William Blair's International Growth, Global Leaders, and International Leaders strategies.

A little-known family investment office made big news this week...  Archegos Capital Management's risky leveraged bets on ViacomCBS Inc. and Discovery Inc. set off a wave of forced liquidations at a number of Wall Street Banks. Estimates show Bill Hwang, the man behind Archegos, levered his positions as much as 5X and so far has triggered the liquidations of positions approaching $30 billion in value.

On this week's rant, Dan takes a look at the continued rise of risky speculations in the markets... and gives some advice for anyone still dabbling in them. Then Dan invites economist Per Bylund in for a conversation about a topic not often discussed on the show.

His research focuses on issues of entrepreneurship, strategic management and organizational economics, especially where they overlap with regulation and policy. Per explains how the long term effects of regulation are easy to ignore because they are often unseen.

One year ago today, Bitcoin traded for around $5,200... Today, it's hovering around $58,000... When one of your investments has grown to a massive winner, what's the next step? It's a tough question that every investor needs to face on their own. But on this week's rant Dan looks back to the story of Robert Kirby and the coffee can portfolio, which suggests sometimes the best thing to do... is nothing at all. Then on this week's interview, Dan invites Jason Hsu onto the show.
