In this episode, Matt, Tim and Mark break down the bullish stock thesis currently prevalent in the market. We take 6 specific themes that the bulls are touting right now and analyze them one at a time based on their validity.  

1. The worst of Covid-19 economic impact is behind us

2. There is a ton of cash on the sidelines

3. Leadership in Quality and Growth stocks will hold the market up

4. An expectation of more positive news on Covid-19 therapeutic treatments

5. The willingness to look past earnings in 2020 towards 2021

6. The Fed put will boost liquidity and keep a floor to stock prices

As a team, we analyze these one at a time and rate their validity between 1-100.  Listen in for our insights, critique and analysis of these themes.

Before the feature, we analyze the markets during our market skyline.  One of the biggest stories has revolved around Oil, short term volatility and long term potential if the supply/demand dynamic can fix itself.  There is a good debate during this section, that we are sure you'll enjoy.

Lastly, we play a game of Set the Odds on topics ranging from the best NFL QB drafted this year to the likelihood that Joe Biden won't be the Democratic nominee on the presidential ballot.  It's a fun section, and one where Tim gets to play the judge between Mark and Matt.  It's a fun section that we hope you laugh a few times with us through it.

In this episode, we teach the Poor Boy’s Covered Call. PBCC’s are a good strategy to use when you want to build cash flow by selling call options, and you like the idea of trading a covered call, but you don’t have the necessary capital to buy 100 shares on a stock. Think of them as leveraged covered calls. It involves buying a long-term call option and then selling a short-term call option. This is a great strategy, and one you’re going to want to learn.

Before that, we review the markets during our skyline. Trade war news, economic indicators, federal reserve speak, and the end of the quarter are all impacting price action right now. Get our analysis on all the above as we break down the charts and the news for you. Lastly, Mark has a game where Matt and Tim must guess whether a quote came from a politician or a football coach. Will Tim break his losing streak? Tune in to find out

In this episode, we welcome Hiro Ababon to the podcast. Hiro is a veteran of our community who started trading 3 years ago. He’s always been interested in investing, buying silver when he was 18 years old right after he joined the Navy. His family has deep roots in the military. His dad and mom met in the military in Japan. After coming to America, his stepdad spent 27 years in the Marine Corps. Hiro invested in jewelry companies, became a hard money lender and invested in rentals. At one point he had 48 rental units, a subway franchise, and other business interests. The 2008 crash forced him through bankruptcy. Being resilient, he never quit. He started his options trading business in 2016.

In August 2016, he attended a real estate investing seminar by Legacy Education which also offered stock market training. His original interest was to start his son Joshua in the business, but it’s evolved to where he’s doing it full time himself. The stock trading education is what he focused on and that’s what introduced him to Tackle Trading and put him on the current path he’s on. He is passionate about his family, his business interests and his ministry. This is an incredible person and an interview that you won’t want to miss.

In this episode of the podcast, we welcome Brandon Diaz to the show.  Brandon is engaging, inspiring and has depth.  You are going to love the interview we conduct, where Matt and Tim ask Brandon about his journey, from not doing well as a student, to joining the Military, and then becoming a Real Estate Investor.  Brandon specializes in many things, but he’s particularly skilled at no money down transactions, and how to get creative in solving problems between buyers and sellers in the Real Estate market.  He’s done a lot in his nearly 10 years investing, and we asked him to take some questions from our students during our Coaches Mailbag feature.  This is a CAN’T MISS interview. 

Before we interview Brandon, we discuss current market conditions in the Market Skyline.  Earnings season starts this week, stocks have been bullish, and so has Crude Oil and The US Dollar.  Will it continue?  The team analyzes the market action and gives you insight into what is happening out there.

At the end of the show, we have a fun discussion about the TV Show the Game of Thrones.  All of us love the show, here at Trading Justice, and we are eagerly anticipating Season 8 premiering this week.  Who will live?  Who will die?  Who will reign?  Get our best guesses, and fan theories about some of these questions.

In this episode of the Trading Justice Podcast, Matt, Tim and Mark discuss the role of leadership in evaluating a company. 

Managers make a difference.  Great leaders make an impact. 

It’s common to look at quantifiable metrics when determining the strength or weakness of a company, like the PE Ratio, debt ratio’s, earnings, growth and revenue. 

But, how do you quantify leadership? 

Warren Buffet detailed 4 traits of a leader, including trustworthiness, skill, energy and love for the business.  During our feature presentation, we discuss what we look for in leaders, and give examples of great leaders, in our eyes.

Before we discuss our feature presentation, we go through the weekly Market Skyline and analyze the market action of late.  In the last week, we’ve seen the market stall at resistance, and more focus on the Federal Reserve, the Trade War, Economic reports like the GDP numbers, and oil prices.  Where will stocks go from here?  What can be the catalyst for a breakout?  We’ll discuss first thing, during this episode.

Back this week is the Coaches Mailbag, where we field questions from the clubhouse.  Tim also has a few questions he’s found on Quora.  Enjoy this fun segment, and, if you ever have a questions for the coaches, email us at team@tradingjustice.com

Lastly, we play a game where coach Mark has found some fascinating statistics and quizzes Matt and Tim on human knowledge.  How many Americans can find the Pacific Ocean on a map?  Do more Americans know who the family members of the TV show the Simpsons are, over how many know what the 3 branches of Government are?  We have some fun with this one, and we expect you will too.

In this episode of the Trading Justice Podcast, Matt and Tim invite panelists Mark and Christian to discuss the movie The Wolf of Wall Street.  

This movie, released in 2013, is based on the true story of Jordan Belfort played by Leonardo DiCaprio.  Jordan first wrote a book called The Wolf of Wall Street in 2007 that was the basis for the movie.

The late 1980’s and 1990’s was a very different time on Wall Street.  Male dominated, ego driven and some very abhorrent behavior was fairly commonplace.  This move does an amazing job portraying that over the top environment, from drugs, to sex, to money – Greed and Excess.

Before the Shooting the Bull discussion, Matt and Tim work through the Market Skyline, where they break down the current conditions in Stocks, Currencies, Commodities and the Economy.  The Trade negotiations with China, 2018 Q4 Corporate Earnings, 2019 guidance, Price to Earnings (P/E) ratios and more are a part of the discussion.
