The podcast starts with a discussion on StoneCo $STNE, a Brazilian Fintech company that recently enjoyed a 40% gain in share price after releasing their earnings last week. Giro Lino, a member of our Brain Trust from Brazil, analyzes the Brazilian economy and provides outlooks into the risks and opportunities related to investing in the country.
Joe and Giro analyze how the increase in digitization globally may empower emerging markets as the cost of collaboration is coming down. Giro argues that Brazil’s economy is largely powered through commodity exports and that they are not yet a service-based economy. Joe believes that may change as virtual education continues to unlock the potential of the population in these emerging nations.
PJ from the WEquil Capital Brain Trust joins the conversation to discuss the ongoing conflict with Russia and Ukraine and the state of the New World Order. Joe assesses the worldwide response to the crisis and the pressure that the global hivemind has placed on Putin and Xi.
The episode ends with a discussion on US markets, and how to determine when there is a trend reversal and the index level. Joe argues that the breadth of impact of the Russia Ukraine crisis and associated supply chain disruptions has not been fully priced in by algorithms that drive much of the prices in markets. This may lead to further downside in the coming weeks.

After reviewing sentiment and valuations pertaining to $ARKK's growth stocks our Brain Trust suggests that these asset classes may have reached a bottom.
The team also goes more in-depth and explores the many styles in which one can approach investing into different asset classes. For example, the Algo Efficient Market Hypothesis is useful for determining mispricings in securities because Machine Learning Models are unable to fully appreciate the value of companies that are developing new technologies like $NVTA. Gauging sentiment is also an important factor when it comes to determining shorter-term price movements.
Many companies with lots of growth potential oftentimes may not have these realities reflected in their balance sheets, so investors need to look at other factors to find deep value, and also make sure to be fully diversified when creating their portfolio.

Originally aired on 1/18/2022.
Joe McPhail discusses his journey that led him to dive deeply into inflation research back in 2015, at the beginning of the earnings recession. The aftermath of this event led many countries in Europe to adopt negative interest rate policies. This sent shockwaves to many economists - how could governments get paid to borrow money?
McPhail was fascinated by this situation and went down a rabbit hole where he spent tremendous amounts of time reading and writing to get answers. This livestream goes over many of the insights from his research and how they apply to our economy today.
