Not financial advice, but here's why I like $NVDA for 2026. With AI only getting bigger, Nvidia’s chips are still the backbone of data centers and next-gen models. As long as AI keeps booming, NVDA will keep riding that wave.
Circling back on the Atlanta Fed tracker recent inputs: US Personal Income up 6th straight months +4.3% y/y,
disposable Income (less tax) up 3.8% y/y, US Spend up 5.4% y/y and Core PCE 2.8%. Last Q productivity was up 4.9% - expect to continue to see strength here as well.
The main thing I’ve learned in 40-plus years as an entrepreneur is that nobody knows anything.
Nobody knows if your idea is good or bad. You don’t know if it’s good or bad. You need to test your idea, trial it, collide it with reality.
That’s the only way to learn.
Been MIA for a few months and the market used the first two weeks of 2026 to remind everyone that “soft landing” stories don’t come with guarantees.
Yields creeping up, small caps wheezing, and everyone’s still chasing the same 5 names. 2026 is already getting interesting.
Anyone else feeling the chop today? Like the market’s waiting for something to happen.
S&P is drifting, techs are cooling off a bit, and everyone is side-eyeing the Fed, earnings, or maybe just their own portfolios.
Kevin O’Leary, best known as “Mr. Wonderful” from Shark Tank, recently shared one of his biggest financial regrets: losing $750,000 by investing in a friend’s failing business.
Speaking at the 10X Growth Conference, O’Leary explained how he initially gave his friend $250,000, only to be asked for another $500,000 two months later. Despite his instincts warning him not to, he invested again — and lost it all. He called it a mistake he’ll “take to the grave,” admitting he let friendship cloud his financial judgment.
O’Leary’s experience highlights how emotions can derail even the savviest investors. Behavioral economists note that emotional biases like loyalty, greed, or fear often lead people to ignore warning signs or skip due diligence. He says the key to avoiding such mistakes is discipline and structure.
Creating an investment plan, conducting thorough research, and sticking to predefined criteria can help prevent impulsive decisions. O’Leary also advises taking a “cooling-off” period before committing money, allowing time for emotions to settle.
Diversification, he adds, is another safeguard against losses. By spreading investments across multiple assets, a single bad decision won’t devastate a portfolio.
His takeaway is simple: never let emotions override logic when money is on the line.
Dawn Staley said, "If you play well, you get extended minutes. If you don’t, that has to go to somebody else."
Successful people don't expect opportunities to just be handed to them.
They prove they deserve them.
They know: YOU GET WHAT YOU EARN.
Teaching and coaching are the same thing.
Good coaches are good teachers.
Good coaching is good teaching.
If you want to get better at one, study the other.
The markets wrapped this week slightly in the red. $SPY, $DIA, and $QQQ all dipped despite a decent Friday bounce. Feels like investors are still wrestling with sticky inflation, Fed signals, and yield pressure. No cause for panic, but definitely cautious vibes out there.
