First Podcast Appearance in 5 years
Building a Robotics focused investment firm has been one of the most fascinating experiences of my life
Robots will be as ubiquitous as smart phones within a decade. Everyone should be paying attention and the @RoboStrategy team will be sharing much more about the most exciting developments in the industry
Not enough people are talking about physical AI and robotics.
I sat down with @rewkang, one of the best investors of the last decade, to discuss his massive bet on humanoids and robotics.
He breaks down the industry, the addressable market, multiple leading companies, and why he launched a publicly-traded fund ($BOT) focused on investing in the top private robotics companies.

I spoke with @jvisserlabs about why AI is creating massive shortages in chips, energy, and commodities, including what that means for inflation and markets.
We also discuss why stocks keep hitting new highs despite economic pressure, how scarcity is becoming the most important investing theme, and why bitcoin could be setting up for a major move.

Arthur Hayes: Politicians have long taken advantage of the quiet hours—making critical decisions on Friday nights when traditional markets are closed and the public has no way to react. But that era is ending. With platforms like Hyperliquid, price discovery is no longer confined to Wall Street.
Billions of people who have never had access to a Schwab account can now express their market views in real time using stablecoins or Bitcoin with 10x or even 20x leverage. This democratization of financial access is why Hayes believes Hyperliquid is poised to take over price discovery in global assets.
