episode number 10, live here with Amanda. How are you doing today, Amanda? Hi, what a day, I'm good, I'm good. But I'm like, I guess I'm antsy, what are you? How are you? I'm confused. Yes, me too.  But we just had another raid hike. The highest rates now in America in 22 years, we're now at 5.25% in America for interest rates and 12 raid hikes out of 13 meetings now in America. And despite the fact that we're having another raid hike and the market is around all time highs for all top three markets, Dow Jones, NASDAQ and S&P 500, Microsoft around all time highs, Apple around all time highs, and NVIDIA around all time highs. We're seeing all time highs all across the board. The market is going up. Yeah, you know- Dow Jones is up for 13 days in a row. Another streak, the hottest streak since 2017. So confused. So am I, I'm like waiting. I'm literally banking, like banking literally on the market going down. And I like honestly, I mean, how I'm still speaking right now, but I wanna share a fun fact with you that I found and it's not really so fun, but listen to this. So for anyone getting a new credit card, so not affecting those with like previous accounts, but in February of 2022, so a year should go. Yeah. Rates on new credit cards were 14.6%.  Oh my goodness. Wowses, that's what credit card rates are. Can you imagine paying 24% on your credit card? No. That's crazy. And when rate hikes go up, people pay more on their credit cards. So we're gonna look at those charts later though. They pay more for everything. Car loans, student loans, credit cards, lines of credit, mortgages, it goes across the board. Yeah, it totally does. So I'm confused as well. I don't, we gotta look at the chart because I really like I can't handle not living right now. This has been the year where everybody expected the market would crash and it's done the complete opposite. The market's been on fire. Bitcoin's been on fire. And in the face of massive rate hikes, the market continues to stay on fire. So it doesn't make a lot of sense. You have to assume people would change. It's like, a big part of me thinks this is gonna come down in a hot minute. And if not now tomorrow, it really does. Part of me thinks it will, but it just doesn't look like it's going to. Well, this just happened though. So here's what I was looking at. So Powell spoke right about here. We explode it up. Mere, mere. Yeah, we explode it up. It's come down quite a bit off that already. So like here is our launch area. And then here is our top. So yeah, we're coming down on that. So let's check on the VIXs are doing before we do anything else. Let's go. Because I really, I was really, really, really strongly considering taking a position on the SDAO. And like, I literally have my trading. I have my quest rate account open on my phone here just in case. Because I don't know, something in me said, this could be fun. I kind of want to piece this. So I'm ready to put an order in if need be. But I expected this would be flying right now, which is why I'm signed in. What the heck? So that's the thing, right? The market is not doing what anybody thought it would do. And that's what it's been doing all year. Like everybody predicted this year would be a market meltdown. Instead, the market's been melting up. Everybody thought we would have tough earnings. Companies are reporting record earnings. So the market's not doing what everybody thought it would do. So what's happening is we've got the highest rates in 22 years, at the same time, the market is on fire, stocks and crypto. Something has to give, something has to give. People are struggling, they're paying more interest than ever. People are going to start going bankrupt. People are going to stop paying their credit cards. People are going to have to walk away from the cars and their mortgages and their homes and people are not going to be able to pay it. Like I know people that used to pay three grand a month for their mortgage, now they're paying six grand a month. How long does it continue to pay six grand a month? They're going to be forced to sell their homes. That's your whole income almost after tax for like one person. Yeah, it's bad. It's bad. Wowses. But you don't want to know it's not bad? What's that? The price of oil. How do you like them apples? Price of oil has been doing really well, can't complain. You know, we call this just like butter. And however, I expected to see the 80 while we're live because I expected the doubt to come down. Like for real, I'm so confused. I think it's on a teeter. It's coming down a bit, but still, not so much. I think what it is, I'm going to give you my opinion why it's going up. I think it's been baked in. Everybody knew that- This is what they're all saying. Yeah. They all knew they were going to do another rain hike. There's no surprise here. Everybody knew another rain hike was coming. So that wasn't a surprise. So I think it's baked in. My issue is that Powell is trying to find every reason why he needs to continue to do rate hikes. Yeah, but you want to know something that I thought was interesting when I heard Powell speaking. And like literally usually when this happens, it's like an hour before we come live. So the whole market is digested. I think right now, oh, look, the US 30 is coming down. Oh, look who might be right again. It's still green though, still green though. I know, but I mean, it's down to 0.3. It was at the 0.5, like a hot minute ago. So I don't know if you heard this, but I thought this was so great because I've had this list. I like I work on our list all week long, depending on what's coming up, right? Yeah. And it was funny because when I was preparing today's list, I was A, basing it on Powell rocking the markets. I was expecting a sale, but it just seems that I might still be correct because now we're down to 0.29. Anyways, I really think that I'm still correct. I think we're getting a sale. Look at this. I mean, that's what would make sense. Here we go. But the market just continues to, the market just continues to be resilient in almost every single negative potential situation that's happened this year. The market has been extremely resilient. I know. Like since we've been doing like helping people learn how to trade and doing trading club and whatnot, one thing that we normally see is it's not easy to make money in the summer. Like it's not. And the stock market is not easy to make money in the summer. Anyways, it's not been so difficult this year at all. Yeah, it's been a great year for investing. There's no doubt about it. But when I was making today's list, what I was doing was I was thinking, okay, well, where else is the max that we make the money in July and August? And I like to keep, oh, I'm so right. It's going red. How? Anyways, watch is coming. But let me finish what I'm saying. Okay, anyways, when I made this list, I was like, where else can we make money? And I thought, this is the entertainment. This is the summertime. It's a season of entertainment. So I checked out stats. Turns out that Las Vegas and the casinos are the busiest in the month of July. Busiest. I can see that for sure. People on vacation.  One thing we didn't focus on is casinos. Also, since I'm looking to be correct in the Dow is like seconds from going red, because we're at 0.13 now. Look at all this red. Seconds. Now that we're close to being red, let me see if I can put my order in on that as now. Oh snap. I'm getting excited. Anyways, I just think that the casino stocks are at epic proportions. Let me enter my order. Oh, look at that drop. Holy moly. I just entered an order on the Estelle. So you want something crazy? Powell's all over the place. Now he's saying, we are no longer forecasting a recession. Because, oh, is that it? Because he's going to hike rates and then pause them to get- So you know that he says we're not forecasting a recession? That there probably will be a recession because everything is always the opposite of what everybody says. That's kind of what the market is lately. It's like, just do the opposite of what you're supposed to do and you'll probably be okay. You see this bro? I see it. I'm watching you. It's crazy. I mean, that's what I thought was going to happen. Damn. Oh, it's like a sneak attack.  Trading you can't handle it. Wow. That's a massive candle. Rich TV, are you there? Oh yeah, I'm here. Wait, you can't hear me? Hello? You can't hear me? Oh, no I can. I lost you for a second. Yeah, I'm here. We're going to see an 80 oil. Is oil climbing right now? It is. We're coming back up. Oh my goodness. So when everything went green, I thought this can't be. Yeah, we started the show saying none of this makes any sense, right? Didn't. But it didn't have time to digest and I was trying to tell myself, I can't be wrong because it just doesn't make sense. I don't think that was all baked in. We were still busting new highs left and right.  So it just didn't make sense. Yeah, look at oil's coming up. Oh, 7883. There's a secret stock that I don't put on these lists for Rich TV Live purposes because it's his little secret stash that I introduced him to. And he's very excited that he's in the green on that one with a great big, what, almost 30% dividend. Pretty great, right? Oh yeah, I can't complain. I'm very happy. You have to be in our trading club to know about that one. But regardless, when oil hits that 80, which this is what should absolutely rock it up, this is why we have a lot of oil stocks on here. There's a lot of catalysts for that. There's a lot saying that because supply and demand is tightening so much, especially over the next quarter, this was something Andrea in our trading club was saying, where's the dividend stocks you're looking at next? For me, it's the oil stocks over the next quarter. You can hold them, you can get a nice ramp on them and you can pick up some mailbox money in the meantime until this all settles out. Because we have to remember that Powell didn't just rule out another. He said, oh, we're gonna take it. This is his quote. We're gonna take it meeting by meeting. I won't commit to not doing it and I won't commit to doing it. Spoken like a free politician. Yeah, and one thing that he said that really bothered me is that he said, oh yeah, we had a really good, we had a really good number with the 3% inflation and he didn't wanna acknowledge that. He just said, we have a really good number. And in the past we've seen that you can have one good number and then it goes back up. What are you trying to say, bro? You went from 9% to 3%. It's clearly going down.  Like let's be honest, we're going to 2%. We're probably going lower than 2%. That's right. And I think we will go lower because he did say, depending on the data will be how aggressive he will be. Now, when we were starting today, I was like, I wanted to show the mix because I figured the volatility list would be like the trades of the day, but then I wasn't so sure. Anyways, I'm now in one of them. Very excited. Cool, the green already. The SQQQ is shorting the NASDAQ and it's growing. Yes. Which is odd because the NASDAQ has been winning because the NASDAQ is always winning these days. Yeah, it's been on fire all year. I think the NASDAQ's up like 30% or 40% this year. Like ridiculous. It seems like it doesn't matter what happens, it just goes higher. And even if it gets affected, it gets affected minimally and then still goes higher. Yeah. Because- If you live in a world of technology, everything is technology. Everything's tech, tech, tech. NASDAQ is the tech sector index. So yeah, obviously living in a tech world, AI's huge now, NASDAQ's gonna benefit. And all these bigger companies are using the word AI in every single conference call they do with shareholders to ensure and make sure that people hear that word so that they go and buy the stock. You got it. Personally, I don't buy it. I think it's just BS. I can't get into that type of promotion. Because to me, it's promotion. Yeah.  You're just using it in a conference call to get someone to buy your stock. What about like the slimy thing that Hive did? Like just changing your- I think a lot of them are doing it. It used to be a Bitcoin miner. Like what are- Yeah, no, hey, that was a slimy thing. That's why I won't buy that stock. I never liked them anyways. But I'm seeing the biggest companies in the world do this now. Microsoft and Google are using the word AI in every single conference call. Yeah, but they're actually using AI. No, I know, but they're using the word AI more than they're using AI just to pump up their stock. But did you see that Biden said he's gonna be putting some, I don't know, watchdogs on AI for reasons?  Biden doesn't even know what day of the month it is. If he did know, we wouldn't know how to tell you because the man- Yeah, like I can't listen to anything that Biden has to say. Nah. There's zero value that anything he ever has to say. That he's giving a wish, selling trade secrets. And then we got a president that everybody thinks is already half dead in America and running the most powerful country in the world, which makes no sense. And then we have another Prime Minister here in Canada that has the worst record of a Prime Minister in 55 years and yet he's still our Prime Minister. Was there ever a bad one who was before that? Who was the bad one? Harper was the last one that we had, right? No, but you said in 55 years, the worst one. So who was the last bad one? I don't know who the last worst one is. I don't think it could be. I don't think there was. I don't think I could. I don't think there can be worse than true though. This guy has had everybody in his party starting to resign. People are resigning around him everywhere. Everyone knows that this reign is going to end. That's why people are resigning around him. People are staying away from this guy. Everybody knows he's toxic. Everybody knows he's toxic.  It's terrible what's happening where we've got government that we put into power and nobody likes these people. Nobody respects these people. Nobody understands these people. And yet they're the ones that are calling the shots. They're the ones pulling the strings. It's crazy, right? So crazy. It's a very crazy time. So the SPX is going red, just so you know. All right. Well, US 30 still holding some green. No, it went down. It's just having a little bit of a test on the fall. But I think it's coming down. I really do. I think it is. I mean, the Russell 2000, this is where I think everybody comes out and play. Because this is Bargain Town, right? Like all the stocks in the Russell 2000 right now are Bargain Town. So if we have a mini recession, as they speak of, it's going to be so good. Because remember the last mini recession we had, which was named COVID? This small cast. Where the market was on fire. You got it. That time, too. Right. And we're seeing fireballs bust out. It's just if you're narrow focused and you're not paying attention to more than one market, then you're just not a very good investor. I just want to see how anyone can honestly say we're in a recession when the housing market's on fire. Honestly. Stock's on fire. Crypto's on fire. That's it. Everything's on fire. And we're in a recession? Right. I don't buy it. I don't buy it. I think the only recession left to be had is real estate. So real estate has not been going down here. If anything else. It has in other places. I read a report today about Toronto. Prices are down 8.9% already. 8% or nothing when they're up 100% in three years. Yeah, but say it already, it is what it is. But regardless of that, bitcoins do for a little correction. Don't think it's dramatic. So it's in a downtrend.  So I can see it's going to have a little correction. And then everyone is just going to buy it right back up. So back a lot. Get ready to double down. There's been some crazy, crazy, there's been some crazy expectations on Bitcoin from some of these institutions. I know I heard some 180s today. Yeah, like there's institutions saying that Bitcoin's going to 180. There's something going on. Institutions that never knew Bitcoin a year ago. And all of a sudden they have these great big predictions. Did you see the statistic where BlackRock a few years ago came out and said that you should allocate 1% of your portfolio to Bitcoin? Have you seen that? Yeah, but then last year Fidelity said up to 15%. Yeah, but have you seen the new number that BlackRock is reporting now? 84.9%. Whoa! BlackRock is saying you should allocate 84.9% of your portfolio to Bitcoin. Isn't that crazy? Oh my God, that's all the more reason for Coinbase. You know me and Andrew are both taping Coinbase. What is that, though?  How can you say that, though? That's just crazy number. Yes. 84% of your money should go into Bitcoin. This is the largest asset manager in the world. BlackRock is the largest asset manager in the world. They were to allocate 80% of their customers' funds to Bitcoin. They'd be putting about $8 trillion into Bitcoin. Well, they were already saying that they were putting. They were trying to say they were going to put $11 or $13 trillion into it. Like, that's no joke. That's a lot of money. That's a lot of money that they're going to be allocating to Bitcoin. So we know that this price is going to skyrocket. That's right. The question is, are you in for the win?   If you're not in on Bitcoin, you're going to miss out on the greatest single investment opportunity of your lifetime. This is the- Just don't say that we didn't warn you because we've been talking about it nonstop for years. That's right. For years. Yeah, like pretty soon it's going to be like, good luck functioning without Bitcoin. Like, that's what it's going to be. Well, have you heard? Speaking of good luck functioning without, Holy snap Tilray, did we see- Have you heard that there are all kinds of different politicians coming out and saying they want the U.S. dollar backed by Bitcoin? Yes. Can you imagine having the U.S. dollar backed by Bitcoin? Yes, and all these politicians are going to have Bitcoin in their- Right. Yeah, and if the BRICS starts using, if the BRICS countries, if the BRICS countries who collaboratively actually have a larger GDP than the G7, just for the record, yes they do, if they start trading in Bitcoin, then the U.S. has no choice but to be backed by Bitcoin. Hey, make it happen. America, make it happen. And meanwhile, Trudeau was making fun of El Salvador's president when he was investing in Bitcoin. And that was when Bitcoin was down, but now Trudeau says nothing about the fact that U.K. Lee is invested, the president of El Salvador in Bitcoin. Why? Because Bitcoin is on fire and Trudeau has nothing to say about it now. And I was talking about this last year and I was like, why doesn't the Canadian government invest in Bitcoin? Why doesn't the U.S. government invest in Bitcoin? If they had taken all of those billions that they sent to Ukraine and put it into Bitcoin, they would have already doubled. Exactly. And I'm not saying they aren't gonna benefit from Ukraine because we know that Ukraine, when they're investing billions of dollars in the Ukraine, they want Ukraine's land. Canada and America are going after Ukraine's land, folks. So when they're giving $8 billion Canada is and U.S. even more to the Ukraine, they are buying Ukraine's land. Understand that. That's an investment, folks. That's an investment. That land is a strength to the land. Did you see that? Bill Gates said years ago that the agricultural land in the Ukraine is better than America. And so why would they buy the agricultural land? So why would America and Canada be buying Ukraine? Because they want the agricultural land. Right, because Bill Gates is growing meat in labs and they want to own all the land so you can't grow real meat so that they can't eat meat. He's also got half of America's land. He owns half of America's farmland. But he doesn't have to buy it from Trudeau because Trudeau is just burning it all. So, you know. Yeah, that's a whole another conversation. But anyway, let's get into the stocks. We're almost halfway through it. Let's get into the stocks while we're at it. Enough about the world falling apart. We're still making money. Well, the world's falling apart. Everything's on fire. Yeah, everything's falling apart. Housing's on fire. Stocks are on fire. Okay, but focus on the stocks. Interest rates are on fire. Everything's on fire. Stocks are on fire, yo. Look at Tilray. Tilray, I'm 50.7%. I do own Tilray. Nice day for them. Very excited about that. Did you see their earnings? Did you see their earnings? Yeah, they killed it. 184 million for the quarter. That's right. 30 million more than the estimate. Right, 30 million.  Well, we know people smoking their brains out here in Canada. That's for sure. Bless you all. You gotta do something to deal with Trudeau. I want to resurrect. They don't mean to toot the horn, but I have to. I told you guys about this one last week. Last Wednesday, I said, watch out for EPF. It's gonna rock it. And then boom, it did for 92%. Whoa, nice call. My goodness. Good job. Look at that. Just want to show you that. And then this is the one that takes my breath away. How much and how often have I been telling you I needed to expel? Hey, it's another one of those electric vehicle plays. It's the Chinese. They pretty much have cornered the Chinese market.  Oh, very good. So anyways, this baby has been rocketing. Like rocketing. So anyways, it's had a crazy, crazy week. Like an absolutely crazy week. I'll show you in a second. Take a look at seven days ago if we were out here. 62%. And I didn't even get a piece of it because I was hoping for a dip because Rivian dipped. There's been no dip. This whole year the market's been going up straight. There's no dip. I know. There's been no dip. But one thing is, I was looking for a dip on X-Pad. Here's what it looks like. It looks like this. And I was like, oh yeah, it's going to dip. Because I thought I was going to come back to that and it's all on camera unfortunately. I thought I was going to come back to this like $11, $12 mark. And that little mofo went up 20 without me. But now look at Rivian's chart. Oh, Rivian, look at Rivian, eh? It looks like it's going to do an X-Pad. Finally broke that $25, $26 resistance that's been holding it down. Right. So look what X-Pad did, which is really not much difference. Here was X-Pad looked like and then bam, it just ripped. And to me, Rivian looks like X-Pad did before it broke out. Yep. 100% agree with you there. Yeah, so I think we're going to have a pullback on X-Pang and it's going to move into Rivian because that is just ridiculous juicy to me. So it doesn't look like the dip is coming on the EVs. I think it's going to break out. Google, nice earnings. Big earnings for Google, $70 billion for the quarter? Well done. Not a bad quarter. Like to put that in perspective, Tesla is doing $24 billion a quarter. Google did $74 billion for the quarter. Google is an absolute monster. Yes. Absolute monster. And they own YouTube. 20% on X-Pang. Don't forget, they own YouTube.  So Meta's reporting after market. Meta's been another one of those rockets. We've argued about this and they haven't stopped. They're reporting. So let's see how it goes. Okay, how are we doing an oil on US 30? Let's check. Oh, same, same. Okay. So we waited all this time to see if we'd break through oil. Now, if we get another rate hike that takes us to September 20th. Yes. So September 20th is a day to make sure you mark on your calendars because that's the next time we see this politician Powell speak. However, if we do see the US 30 go and stay red which it looks like it wants to, it could take until tomorrow. Like, I mean, last time we saw this, it wasn't so red in the day and then the next day, bam. I personally think everything is way overbought. I'm not buying anything right now. I'm sitting back waiting for some time. I bought the Estow. I'm shorting the US 30 right now. Yeah, I just feel like everything is really high and we have to come down at some point. I feel like we could go higher because there's so many catalysts coming, like Bitcoin having, there's an election in the US coming. So there's so many catalysts, maybe the end of rate hikes eventually here soon. So there's a lot of catalysts coming. So the market might just keep going up but I'm not going to be the one buying at the top waiting to go higher than all-time highs. It just doesn't make sense. No, and we have to be fluid. The last year I was buying at crazy. This year I've been a seller. I've been holding my crypto but I've been selling stocks that have been high but I've been holding my crypto due to the fact that the Bitcoin having is a massive catalyst. So I feel like Bitcoin's going to go much higher. Well, I've been trading and I mean, not full force but I've definitely been snacking my way along. But right now- Yeah, I mean, I've been trading. I've been selling. I've been selling all my winners. And when we're talking though on where we're going to make money in the next quarter, we have to start thinking of who made money in this summer and what's going to report to us in early fall. Cause that's where the money we put in now is going to pay us then that gets us through this little rate hike time or volatility of it. Cause you just left everybody in fear. And we're just waiting for that to settle in, right? Yep. Also we're coming into the time where oil is at its best price and we have tightening supply and demand which means it's going to get juicy in the oil sector. I have said- Yeah, I agree with that. You know, oil typically, the price of oil and gas goes up in the winter as people are heating their homes. It's the summer time, people are spending less money on their homes heating because they're outdoors more and it's warmer. So typically the winter is the time to play oil and gas. So I agree with you. Now is the time to invest, to position yourself for the next run up in the next six months. That's right. Because this is the time that most people that have been trading it are out of it because they're not thinking about it. We want to be in when they're not thinking about it. So when they come back and remember, oh yeah, I have all this stuff to buy. We're already in when it creeped out and we're in good before it creeped out. Cause it's all about where you position yourself. Now Andrea in our trading club, she had said, she actually DM'd me earlier in the week and she said, I have, she has quite a bit of profits which she's been trading successfully all year. Great. She said, I know, I know. And she said, I now want to put those in a high yield stock.  Oh, I always have my pen ready, don't worry, it's in my hand. A couple of these you're going to recognize but when I bust out the mother load, I think I'm going to be looking for a position in one of these to take me through to that October area, October Christmas time when the run-up comes.  That's right. Where can you park your money when the volatility is in play? There's a couple that I got my eye on. If there's more time at the end, I want you to look at them but there's two specifically that I really like that have been down all year and last year. And I think at some point have to go higher. So what sector are they? Well, they're Disney and PayPal. Oh, okay, we'll get into those. I believe PayPal is going to do the same. So they're so down and beat up that at some point they have to go higher. Everything else has gone up except for Disney and PayPal and Disney and PayPal are great companies. Can we get into those in the end? Because first I want to go into these. Yeah, I just see it feels like out of everything that's up right now, they're the only two that are actually still down all year. Yeah, I actually think that I agree with you but I'm so excited to show you my new finds. Show me, let's go. Take us through the next quarter. What are you waiting for? Let's go. Now this is like a good time, not a long time guys. This is to get us through the power BS, okay? So I know that Shell looks high and I don't usually like to buy high but $62 is not high. It's 3.41% dividend but Shell has been like expanding into the whole world. Like Shell is into Bitcoin, Shell is into, well, there's Shell, so the oil and gas. Shell is also doing EV charging. I think they have a lot to go but just on the oil point, Shell. Now, Enbridge, Enbridge is only at $49. Look at this juicy chart. That's enough for a nice buy for sure. 7.19% dividend in case anybody forgets. Dividend's massive, wow. That's right. And to me, this is like the bottom. This is the time of the year that they bought them out and it's looking juicy from here. So if you just wanna sit, instead of sitting cash and you don't make any money, you might as well sit somewhere where you're gonna collect a dividend. All right, I think MRO, Marathon Oil, is really looking good, is actually busting out already. It's like, it's already broken out, retested and it's gonna bust out. So we dividend the 1.4. Excellent, everybody knows excellent as a beast but the chart is looking juicy because Exxon never stays down.  So if you're looking for a nice 20% just for holding, thanks for coming out, Exxon's looking good. Occidental, nice pullback. It's been a long time to wait for that to pull back and break out, but it's looking juicy. So Occidental is good. I think it's a good parking spot if you're looking for where to go when the volatility comes. Conical Phillips, oldie and a goodie. I'm not gonna stay too far in, but look at it. It's already breaking out. So these guys all take their turns. So if you missed one, catch one that I just said, the nice thing about YouTube is you can press pause and go back. But seriously, look at that. And there's no reason it's breaking out, not on the others. But here's the juicy, are you ready? I'm ready. Okay, PXD. PXD. Pioneer Natural Resources, they're oil. Okay. I know that they're $220, but don't let that stress you out because it's just a pullback from 286. So it has a 33% upside to their pretty recent high. See that dividend? 10.57%. You got it. Wow. Hey, quarterly. Hey, quarterly, I like that. Yes, sir. Their next earnings is August 1st. I don't really think that matters so much because it's summertime. So I don't expect it to be spectacular. But I think if you're looking for a position, August 1st would be the time to look to position yourself because chances are they're not gonna have an exciting earnings because it's the summer months. So that's my knowledge on that one. All right, VLO. This is one that I think we all know about, but don't come back too often enough. Only a 3.2% dividend, but again, their powerhouse. And they've already broken out, but not so much. They've just kind of like showing their go. I mean, we got close to 20% in that over the next quarter or maybe more, it's energy transfer. I never heard of this until recently.  I don't, because it's only $13. They're pipelines. So it isn't even a matter of how much did they use. It's if those babies are flowing, they get paid. 9.3% dividend. Do you know this one already? No, I'm writing it down. There we go. So I think we have some wicked potential in these guys. I'm always writing down everything that I don't know or I don't have on my watch list constantly trying to add new picks to my watch list, new companies to learn about, new companies to watch, new companies to identify. So every time you do your session, I always write everything down and every new pick down and then I add it to my watch list so my watch list is ever growing and ever expanding. And then with that, I feel like my knowledge of the market is ever growing and ever expanding every single week. I honestly feel like I'm at the point now where I can confidently say that I feel like I probably on a different level than the average investor when it comes to understanding the markets and stocks and crypto. Yeah, when you spent your time being good, you know. Because I'm watching the market 24 hours a day, seven days a week. I feel like I'm really in tune with what's going on in the market. And that's not even a competitive thing. It's just because I'm dedicated my life to it. So once you dedicate your life to the markets and you really just get into the matrix and you live it every day, you start to understand the ebbs and flows of it. You start to see patterns, you start to see trends and you start to get in front of them. And that's kind of what I've been able to do this year. I'm pretty excited about that. But, you know, last year when everything was down and everybody was panicking, I was buying all year. I was buying as well. And I told everybody that was a buying opportunity. Me while everyone was panicking and running for the hills. And I was buying all year. So I've been sitting back really relaxing all year, not really breaking a sweat and making money on all of my investments I made last year. Yeah. It's been tremendous. And my crypto portfolios doubled. Well, that's just the beginning. Crypto is just recovering. Like it's doubled, but this is only the beginning. We're so far on the bottom still that can't even read it. So I wouldn't worry so much about where that's going to go because it's going to be more than double real soon. Oh, I'm not worried. And it's just interesting to watch your portfolio grow without actually making any changes or additions at all. I'm making some additions and they're going to be some high energy, like some of these oil stocks with a nice dividend. Because when, when oil starts to get a little bit more juicy as it will, because this is the time to buy. Okay. Look at Kotaire energy. It's only on $27. Okay. 7.73% dividend. CTRA Kotaire energy. Yeah. 7.71. Yes. 7.73. 7.73. With an upside of 53%. I love dividends. Ever since I started getting into dividend investing, I started realizing like, why didn't I do this sooner? It's mail bonus money. I get the opportunity to make money to hold, which I like to hold anyways. Yeah. And because the longer you hold the bigger upside you get. And if the stock goes up, I can just sell it. I'm not demanding. I got two ways to make money with the dividend stock. Why didn't I do this sooner? It's something I think about all the time. What was that? Why wasn't I doing this sooner? I know it's because, you know, when you're in your early days, because I did the same thing, you're looking for those smaller stocks for the big bumps, but then you get so tired of the roller coasters. If I'm up, I'm down, I'm up, I'm down. You're like, where can I put something to have some stability in my life? Yes. So to me, it's mail box money. I got paid just for holding and it's a surprise. Okay. Halliburton has a week dividend, but I don't care about that. They're, they're a monster in the oil fields and they have a 97% upside from these levels. Whoa. Yeah. That's nice. I like that. And this is my last one marathon just doesn't stop. It's a gift that keeps giving. I can't say it's going to dip, but it's only $130. So when you look at everything else and you look at like the climate that we're in right now, it's an effing monster. Anyways, enough about the oil. The only thing else that you can think of. Okay. So what I'm like, where else can we make, can we juice out some green at the end of a summer, at the end of a green summer. Where Powell just hikes rates where can we market some green. And here's what I realized. It turns out that July. July is the top month. Like the number one month for casinos making income. People on vacation going to the casino, going to Vegas. That's right. So it seems looking at this chart and not the only one that knows this, but I won't forget it because it's now every July is in my calendar. As casino month. I think as long as we're positioning ourselves in these Las Vegas casino months for all these people that are stressed about inflation and want that little extra bump and they take their asses down to Vegas and gamble a little. How do you like them apples? Yeah, that chart looks juicy. Doesn't it? I love it when you see a trend reversal and then a breakout. That is the type of chart I like to look for. You want to buy a dip, but you want to wait for a trend reversal because you don't want to buy a falling knife. So you want to wait for the trend to reverse and start to go in the other direction with huge potential gap to fill, which is what you see right there.  Yes. So when I started making this list, I was like, wow, you guys all have a juicy momentum. So honestly, if I can tell you anything, when you have like a seasonal sector, marketing calendar is a yearly event so that these things come up. So this is in my calendar at every year now in July, early July, not the end of July, I'll be buying up these casino stocks. So this is BYD Boyd gaming. They are casino stock as well. There's scoopy thing is pretty freaking explosion area. Wow. Right. $5 to 70 bucks. Yes. What a beast. Yes. And it doesn't seem like it's going to stop because they've been expanding. More than the 10 X miss that one. Same. Then we have MGM. MGM is a monster of all monsters. And they're also affiliated with Caesar as well. So monster of all monsters only at $50. And again, they're going to be reporting their highest time of the year real soon. So when resorts, when resorts is not just Las Vegas. That's a cool thing about when I've bought and sold with lots of times. It's been one of my favorites. Week week dividends. So don't worry so much about that. But the thing about when is they've expanded globally. They've expanded. They've expanded. All the Las Vegas casinos and resorts, but they also have residence hotels. Like they have hotels everywhere. Almost like a time share, but not quite a time share. And the next level. So anyways, they do well off that. The upside is juicy. They're starting a breakout. So they have between like 80 to 140%. Can I just say something real quick? Yeah. So there's an analyst on CNBC right now. Who says that. Data will not show that a further rate hike will be needed. Which is what we're trying to say. Like if we're at 3% now, and you just increased rates again, the next meeting should show 2% inflation. But. So if it does show 2% inflation, what would be the reason at that point for them to. Increase rates again. The reason would be that Canada did it as a safe hold. And Europe did it as a safe hold. So we will as well. I know, but if it's at 2%, there's no reason to increase rates again. This is what his. It wasn't a reason for Canada to increase rates again after they got their inflation down, but they still did. Yeah, but Canada's inflation. Isn't that 2%. Fair. It's at 4%. Well, they said they were going to stop and they didn't. I don't think they will. I think they're jerks. No, but I just think that like, let's just think logically here. Let's just say in a perfect world. That the next time we see a CPI report, we get down to 2% inflation. Right. Okay. Imagine in September, if Powell says we're at the 2% inflation mark. We're not increasing rates anymore unless we see it get back over 2%. Imagine what that would do for the markets. They're going to be ridiculously amazing. Did you imagine? So I'm thinking there's a chance of that. Like I'm more thinking that probably will be another 0.25. Just because that's just what the direction seems like they're going regardless. The last one, and that's the last one and that should be all that matters. But that could, but what I'm saying is this could be the last rate hike. It could be. Technically. Because we're at 3%. They want to get to 2%. They just raised rates again. We're probably going to show 2%. Yeah. So I don't know. I can't, I can't feel optimistic as you. I don't feel optimistic as you. I think you left it open to say. Well, I didn't like how Powell was like, Oh yeah, we had a really good read at 3%. So he finally admitted 3% is good. Right. Yeah. 9% was really, really bad. And he talked about that in nauseam, but now we're at 3%. And you're not mentioning how great that is. Cause we, but what he keeps saying is he wants to see if it is sustainable. So I think it was a good number. Oh, well, I can't determine if it's sustainable. If I only do one, let me do two and then we can measure it. But bringing the rates up has taken it down from 9% to 3%. And you just brought the rates up yet again. It's going to go lower. Clearly things are healthier. Like he was cold on it during, during his talk and you can, you can go back and listen. It was just before we came live. One of the reporters had said, well, consumer spending is clearly up like ticket sales and entertainment sales have opened by rocketing. We're spending money. We're spending clearly up. Don't you think that that's, that should contribute to you not raising rates again. And he's like, oh, we're just going to have to see the data first. So to me, I think he's going to do something slimy. It's just that weird that he made a comment about it was, it was, it was great. We had a great reading. Well, if we had a great reading, that means that inflation is back under control, buddy. Cause we took it from 9% to 3% recognize that. And if you just raise the rates yet again, chances are the next CPI report. I think he wants to pat himself. I don't think he wants to stop that too. I think he wants to keep going to say, oh, we just need to have a buffer, but I got to go through this list because I have some really good stuff I want to share. Keep going, keep going. Let's go. Let's go. We got 10 minutes. Penn entertainment. Do you know this one? Yes. Penn gaming. It's like, Holy snap in their chart is that $26. They had a 2021 high of 140. Yeah. That chart looks juicy. Not only that. Look at their last earnings. So here was Q for 2022. And look at this huge job. The price of stock didn't move. That's weird. Isn't that crazy? Yeah. So I think that was just because nobody was out. Because they weren't allowed out. And then they opened and then bam. Wow. So it seems that the stock didn't bump up because people wanted to see if it would hold. So as long as the next one holds, which is August 9th. So I think we have like a week to position ourselves in this thing before they post earnings. Well, if they post good earnings, you definitely see this thing explode. That's what I'm saying. So that's one of my faves right now. I think it's looking juicy and the timing is right. I like the chart. I like what you're thinking. Another gaming. So this is Van at gaming ETF. So when I looked at the ETF, I was like, ah, I like pulling up ETFs because for anyone who doesn't want to like, you know, do a lot of DD, which you should because we're not financial advisors.  Nice upside in it. Okay. Light and wonder. I didn't know this one before, but then when I saw what their chart has done, I got to know them real quick. It's like, holy crow. Wow. Right. Look how look when it skyrocketed from 2020. It went from like nothing, $5 to $90. Wow. That's unbelievable. Right. So it turns out what they did was their casino. But then they went hard on the online casino. When the pandemic started.  But now that casino is our open again, they're operating both. And they still have good users on both. That's juicy. L N W. All right, Amanda, we've got nine minutes. Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. But the rest are similar. But again, I think this is our money makers right now. NG MS. Check this baby. 2021. Yes. 73 dollars and 75 cents during the pandemic. See these are the charts I like not buying something at 52 dollars and 75 cents during the pandemic. And they've already popped off their low. Good find. Thank you very much. I'm quite liking this one as well. Their earnings are August 9th, but it was the last time they had earnings that popped them off that low. So. Don't say I don't warn you. Okay. These guys pretty much same different pile. They're pretty much in Las Vegas, but a few other places. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And gaming stock pretty impressive to have a 4.75. Percent dividend. Nice. Loving the dividends. Right. And earnings were coming up, but when. Oh, today. So earnings today. So let's wait on that. L Y V. Live nation entertainment. These guys do live concerts. I really like this one. These guys have been killing it. They have like another 30% ish in them. Wow. Right.  And now they're going and they're going in full force. Oh yeah. Concerts are killing it right now. Their earnings are tomorrow.  I think the next earnings after that are going to be their world rockers, but still, I mean, this is a clear. If you're looking at reversal patterns, you're going to get any juicier than that. Right. Oh yeah. Trend clear trend reversal right there. Right there. Perfect W. So don't say weren't warned, but they're about to report. MSGS. They report on August 17th. My name is your comment. It's Madison Square Gardens. Oh wow. Yes. Madison Square Gardens reports on August 17th, their last report. Yeah. It was a pandemic, right? Because everybody started to go back out again. They had a really nice boost. So I'm sure they will again, because they've been the busiest throughout all the summer. So all those sales all summer long are already going to be here. Right. Yep. So anyways, don't say the morning. Yeah, but it looks like we're going to have a nice bump on that in the next couple of weeks. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think Madison Square Gardens is a public company. I didn't either until now. You're welcome. I was looking at like the top entertainment stocks, like concerts and all these kinds of things. And I was digging deep and I was like, wow, there's some juice in here. Yeah. Madison Square Gardens is also known for sporting events. Like I think the next play there, the New York Knicks. And I don't know if the New York Rangers play there or not, but it's. Yeah. They make a lot of money on merch. I was looking at their revenues. They kill it. Oh, wow. Look at event price. Gant same as an online ticketing sales to all different events. They're looking pretty juicy. They're reporting on August 3rd, which means they got their ticket sales from the summer. Nice, clear reversal pattern, but wake it upside on them. Yes. Those are American stocks that we're talking about. Yeah. Yeah. But you can still trade them.  Warner music. Time to bring it out. Now, anyone who owned AT&T got this as a spinoff. Didn't you? Was it? No, it wasn't this one. Oh. Either way, they're setting up to do well, believe it or not. I didn't really think I thought the, the music industry wasn't doing well because everyone pirates. Like I knew as well. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if it's the same one. Warner music. Warner music. Probably the same one then. So just wanted to tell you, this chart looks juicy AF to me. Interesting. Juicy. Yeah. Cause it was around $24 or something or $27. So it might be that one actually. Okay. But how about this one? Do you know TME? Have you heard of Tencent before? Yeah. Tencent. That's the Asian company, right? Yeah. Even just the Asian company. I did. Yeah. And I always knew them as the Asian company as well, but I did some more digging into them when I was making this list. Aren't they into gaming? Tencent isn't a game. Yeah. Yeah. They're into everything. Okay. They're into everything. So Spotify has a almost 50% stake into them. Oh wow. That's big. Not only that, but they own three of the top music producing companies in China. Nice. Something else. Ready? Yeah, I'm ready. They own WeChat. Oh, WeChat. Wow. Okay. Yeah. That's the app. That's the app that, that Elon Musk is trying to. That's the app that all of China operates on. Yeah. And Elon wants to be like the WeChat of the world with Twitter. You just changed Twitter to X now. You know that, right? Yeah, but I'm not updating my app. So mine still has a blue bird and I'm keeping it that way. Yeah. Weird. I'll show you screen chat later. My blue bird is still there. No one believes me. I'll show you. It's legit. That's hilarious. So TME is the New York stock exchange version of Tencent, the entire Chinese company. It's already had a breakout. It's having like a mini pullback and it looks like it could absolutely launch off here. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't say it in a morning, but that was like pretty intriguing to me to find that. Okay. Sony. The reason I had to bust out Sony is they always seem to come out with a new PlayStation around August time. Yes. They came out of the new PlayStation. LeBron James was promoting it. There you go. See. Always. So I keep. Very smart. Yes. They always happen. And then because they always want to have them in this market, they always want to have them in the market. So that's why I always watch Sony around this time. So Sony looks like it's actually in a really good visor. Yeah. I like Sony. Yes. So there you go. A new PlayStation comes out. Everyone goes crazy for Sony. And we got a good 40% in it. So like to me, that's a good coming up to Christmas present. Amanda, we got two minutes. Okay. I'm excited. Okay. I can do this. I can do this. Okay. Now. About my little fast fact that I found earlier with credit interest. If you get a new credit card now, because you never had one before or you want a new one. If you got it last year, you'd pay 14% interest. If you get it this year, you're paying 24% interest. I cannot ever imagine having a credit card at 24% interest or jump off a bridge. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Yeah. But again, same reason that I said Sony is the same reason that I'm saying America Express. Mastercard and visa.  They just wrap them up. They wrap them up and they don't think about it. And then we have interest rate hikes coming. And then we have interest rates coming. And then we have interest rates coming. And then we have interest rates coming. So if you're getting 10% more than last year, they're getting even more expensive because power. Just dropped your present today. And then you're going to have when Sony releases the new PlayStation, you're going to go charge that on your credit card. Then when Christmas comes, you have no cash left. You're going to charge that in your credit card. So if you buy American Express. And Mastercard and visa.  And you know, I love all three. And I've been talking with all three for years. And all three of them are at 52 week highs, folks. Summer is always the best time to buy them, which means they're just going to go higher because everyone's going to live off the credit cards even more. Hey, can I just get you to look at two more pictures before we take a bite? Disney and PayPal. Okay. I want to look at the chart. These are my gifts to you guys. Paypal. Out of all the stocks that are overpriced right now, which is a lot. Okay. That I ain't touching because we're at 52 week highs, all-time highs, overbought, crazy market meltup. The market did finish green, by the way. It was PayPal. What was the other one? PayPal and Disney. We have now got green 13 days in a row in the Dow Jones. Bitcoin's going back up. We're now at 29,400. And I just want to remind everyone that Rich TV Live is strictly for information and education purposes.  Past performance is not always an indication of future results.  So don't go and buy something just because we talk about it. Because we talk about lots of stocks. I think these are great picks. But these are two that I'm thinking about buying myself. I think they're at sick entries. Both of them are at sick entries. Yes. That's a bottom. That's a clear bottom. So I'm just really waiting for Ernie. I think PayPal is a long way to go now. So I agree. That's a clear bottom on PayPal since 2018. So yeah. So these are the types of charts I'm looking for in a sea of stocks that are up, like Meta and NVIDIA and Apple and Microsoft and Google and Tesla. I already bought and sold all those. So now is that these ones are at the bottom. That's right. So now I'm like, what are the big companies that haven't gone up yet? Yeah. PayPal and Disney was a two of my gifts to you, the people that are watching here today. Well done. And Amanda, thank you for all of your picks. I got a big list here that I wrote down. Thank you so much, Amanda, all your picks, your dividend stocks, your oil and gas stocks, your casino stocks, your credit card stocks, great ideas, great picks, all of them. Thank you so much, Amanda, all the way from Mexico. And for all of you guys that are watching, if you're not watching, you're probably not watching because we bring in the winners, bring in the news, chart analysis, CEO interviews, trending topics, and we bring it to you first. Thank you once again, Amanda, for manning the charts like usual every single week. And this is stocks and stacks episode number 10. We are clearly in a bull market in stocks and crypto. We've been bull all year. We've been bullish all year and we'll keep you updated. We'll be back in a week to tell you what's going on. Thank you for watching, everybody. Watch that next list tomorrow, guys. Have a great day, everybody. It's your host with the most, your boy, Richard Rich TV. Amanda, have a great day. Peace. And I'm out. Peace.


My fellow Americans, August is a happy time for most of us, a time of vacations and state fairs. A number of America's farmers will be showing their livestock and produce at those fairs, and this month they'll have more to show than ever. It's been another bumper crop year on the farms, and that's good news for America's consumers, but a mixed blessing for our farmers. Big crops mean weaker prices, and under current conditions that means more financial strain for some of those who grow the food that feeds our country. It's no secret that American agriculture is facing hard times, and it's particularly painful to know that those affected are among our most productive and hardworking citizens. American farmers are the backbone of our country. Their crops and stock and related industries account for nearly one-fifth of our gross national product, and almost one-fifth of our exports. Now, not all farmers are in trouble, many are not.  Current farm problems arise from a host of reasons. There were the shocks of the 70s, grain embargoes, double-digit inflation, and record interest rates at 21%. Some farmers borrowed large sums of money based on inflated land values, and when we brought inflation down, those farmers were left with declining land values to cover their loans. But a major contributor to the problem is the federal program designed to help farmers. For years now, federal farm programs have distorted the market and sent confusing signals to farmers. Interventionist commodity programs have encouraged farmers to produce more than the market will bear while attempting to prop up prices. Today, we find ourselves with farmers who grow more than they can sell, and the result is low commodity prices and a depressed rural economy. And this in spite of how much we've spent. In 1979, for instance, the federal government was purchasing less than one percent of all dairy products at a cost of $250 million. Just four years later in 1983, it was purchasing 12% of those products at a cost of the taxpayer of well over $2.5 billion a year. And it's not just the dairy program. From 1981 through this year, we will have spent just under $59 billion on farm price supports. That's nearly three and a half times what we spent from 1976 to 1980. Our administration has spent more on the farm program than any other administration in history. If spending more money on agriculture would solve the problem, we already would have solved it by now. We've got to create a future for the farmer that's every bit as bright as the future is for the rest of our economy. A big part of that is keeping inflation and interest rates down. We've made progress on these fronts, as you know, and it's helped farmers control their own costs. Farm production costs were rising fast in the 1970s, but now they've been stable since 1981. The other half of the job is to free ourselves from the quagmire created by federal farm programs. I support long-term policies that will enable the American farmer to enter the 21st century stronger than ever before. The world market holds the potential for increasing opportunities for our products, but we must have a farm policy that maintains our competitiveness. Through our trade policies, we must ensure that farmers have full and fair access to all foreign markets. That is one of the federal government's greatest responsibilities. Another is to provide stability in programs. Much of the farm problem stems from the past practice of lurching from one emergency program to another, coming up with so-called solutions that never solve anything. The answer to our farm problems cannot be found in sticking with discredited programs and increasing government controls. The answer can only be found in our ability to help our entire agriculture industry stand on its own feet again. You know, this country is nothing without the farmer. And those who work the land have the right to know that there's a future in farming. Their children have the right to know that they'll still be able to work the family farm generations from now and make a decent living. The law governing our farm program expires September 30th. I'm eager to sign historic legislation that will put American agriculture on a sound course for the future. In writing farm legislation, I expect the Congress to stay within its own budget. Its own budget goals. I need your help to send Congress an unmistakable message that change in our farm policy is not only desired but essential. Until next week, thanks for listening and God bless you.


So hello everyone, my name is Hong and I'm just here to accept this on behalf of Dr. Jones and Dr. Morakoff and Professor Drummond. They are all in San Francisco at the moment to present our work at the annual conference. So here are a few, so first of all I would like to thank the Brain Foundation, the committee, Professor Kinen and all the members and the donors for the Brain Foundations. Our work at the moment focusing on the glioplastoma. So approximately each year there are 2000 Australian suffer from brain cancer. Apart from that, the most common type of brain cancer is glioplastoma. It's a devastating disease with 20% of each, 20% of the disease patients surviving beyond five years is only 20%. The current methods of diagnosing and monitoring glioplastoma is through MRI. However MRIs, although it gives you good anatomic and spatial information about a tumor, it is not reliable at predicting how the tumor is going to behave in the future. So it is not accurate enough to detect early tumor recurrence in many patients. So we propose that instead of having an MRI scan, we having also a blood test. So what it does is that a blood test is non-invasive and it can help you monitor the tumor as it progress through the tumor treatment progressions. So a blood test has the potential to solve these challenges.  So in our lab we have up to date identified a panel of nine circulating biomarkers that we can show that between brain tumors and healthy control there's 99% accuracy that can predict from brain tumor. So with the help of this funding here, we plan to use these nine markers to monitor it alongside with the MRI scan so that we can predict when the tumor can come back and so we can manage the treatments and the treatment plan for each patient better. So we also investigate these along with the MRI like I said. So thank you so much for the foundations and all the members for the funding for this work.


Secdef Chuck Hagel spoke about the fiscal year 15 budget at a Pentagon press conference Monday afternoon. The budget is expected to cut more than $75 billion from the DOD over the next two years. The Navy will continue buying two destroyers and attack submarines each year. It will also maintain the 11 carrier strike groups, but USS George Washington may need to be retired pending sequestration and the fiscal year 16 budget. View the press conference and read more about the proposed cuts at defense.gov. PCU's Somerset moved to Philadelphia this weekend where she is scheduled to be commissioned Saturday. She is the third ship named in honor of victims and first responders of the September 11 attacks. After her commissioning, Somerset will move to San Diego where she will be home ported.
