Dan Rasmussen, Partner at Verdad Advisers, delivers a sharp take on AI’s real cost to Big Tech in this eye-opening clip from WealthWise with Jeffrey Hirsch. While AI promises to revolutionize the economy, Dan warns that companies like Google face skyrocketing capital expenditures, costly searches via Gemini AI, and rapidly depreciating NVIDIA chip investments—with no clear monetization model in place. 💡 Curious about what this means for your portfolio? 🎥 Watch the full episode by clicking here: Dan Rasmussen on Market Outlook, International Value & "Fool’s Yield" Strategy 🔔 Don’t forget to Subscribe to the CrossCheck Media YouTube channel for more expert insights. 📧 For advertising and sponsorship opportunities, email: [email protected] #DanRasmussen #WealthWise #AIInvesting #BigTechStocks #GoogleGemini #NVIDIA #TechCapex #VerdadAdvisers #MarketInsights #JeffHirsch #CrossCheckMedia #BizTalkTodayTV #ArtificialIntelligence #FinanceYouTube #StockMarketAnalysis #Business #Finance #BTT #StockTradersAlmanac #News #Investing #StockMarket Learn more about your ad choices.

In this insightful episode of WealthWise with Jeffrey Hirsch, ⁠Dan Rasmussen⁠, Partner at Verdad Advisers, joins ⁠Jeffrey Hirsch⁠—Editor‑in‑Chief of ⁠The Stock Trader’s Almanac⁠—to dissect the current market landscape and forward-looking strategy. They explore the implications of a mid-year rally and a likely Q3 pullback driven by geopolitical trade concerns and NASDAQ’s recent MACD sell signal. The duo highlight historically weak seasonal periods while preparing for possible October buying opportunities. Dan shares his evolution from journalism to investment, his shift in private equity into growth-focused strategies, and the headwinds small‑cap markets face—especially declines in U.S. listings versus undervalued international markets, including Japan and Europe. He introduces innovative tools like Mahalanobis distance for macro evaluation, critiques the Efficient Market Hypothesis, and coins the concept of "fool's yield"—where high fixed-income yields may flag unacceptable default risk. They examine why elevated AI costs are pressuring big‑tech margins and discuss Verdad's investment emphasis on international value, leveraging quantitative and fundamental approaches across Europe and Japan. 🔔 Subscribe for more expert interviews and market analysis. ⁠CrossCheck Media⁠ produces and distributes WealthWise via ⁠Biz Talk Today TV⁠. 📧 Interested in advertising with CrossCheck Media or sponsoring future episodes?

In this explosive clip from Buy Hold Sell, Fernando Valle, CFA, Head of Energy at Hedgeye Risk Management, reveals the critical importance of Kharg Island—Iran’s main oil export terminal responsible for over 1.3 million barrels per day. Valle explains why bombing Kharg would be a point of no return, potentially triggering Iran to shut down the Strait of Hormuz, and why the U.S. and Israel have avoided that move… so far. With only 1.5% of global oil coming from Iran, Fernando warns that a direct hit could lead to double-digit oil price spikes and the collapse of the Iranian state, not just its government. 🎥 Watch the full episode of Buy Hold Sell: Fernando Valle on Oil Crash, AI Energy, Strait of Hormuz & Cease‑Fire 📧 Want to advertise with CrossCheck Media or Biz Talk Today TV?
