Sh!t Storm for the Bears! — China's Market Reversal, Tesla's Valuation, and OpenAI’s $150B Bet

Trends With Friends New Episode

In this week’s episode of Trends with Friends, the crew and I dig into what’s happening in the market and beyond:

Bulls 1, Bears 0: We break down the resurgence in previously lagging sectors, with a special spotlight on China's unexpected market reversal.

Tesla's Sky-High Valuation: Love it or hate it, Tesla's numbers are making headlines again. We debate whether it's a meme stock or the real market leader.

Apple’s Next Move: Michael Parekh joins us with insights on Apple’s overlooked AI strategy and its game-changing new camera tech.

Betting on AI: We unpack Sam Altman's wild predictions for superintelligence and what OpenAI's $150B funding round means for the future. It’s not just hype—there’s serious money backing these bets.

Fitness for Finance: Phil riffs about why staying fit is crucial for longevity.

We also chat about Meta's Ray-Ban partnership, Stocktoberfest in Coronado, and our weekly "Trends with No Friends" segment (DuPont, we’re looking at you).
