EasyEats——$30 HOOD 看涨押注、Polymarket 优势与肽类

Thread Guy

股票加密金融投资
YouTube ↗
TL;DR
  • Thread Guy 最大仓位是 HOOD,即使股价接近160美元也一股未卖。 主持人说自己是在30美元附近开始买入。Thread Guy 的判断“极其简单”:年轻一代不像老一代那样对传统银行有忠诚度,会把银行、房贷、预测市场、加密货币和股票交易集中到应用里。Robinhood 面向净资产较低、交易频率更高的用户;IBKR 则面向更富裕、但单个用户交易量更低的人群。

  • Thread Guy 在肽类交易上更看好 LifeMD(LFMD),而不是 HIMS。 他称 LFMD 是一家约2亿美元市值、股价接近4.64美元的公司,其药房基础设施可以支持复配肽类药物。他认为7月23日的 FDA 会议可能触发大行情,给予获批70%-80%的概率,并表示如果被拒,股价会剧烈回撤,但只是推迟获批。他也称 HIMS 是一笔不错的多头交易;如果更新一代的 GLP 产品获准上市,会考虑做空 Novo Nordisk,同时承认 Novo 还需要时间、许可证和审批。他从实验室买过 retatrutide,但从未服用。

  • Thread Guy 偏好无论哪一个 AI 模型胜出都能受益的基础设施。 他看好 PWR/Quanta,认为其订单储备覆盖至2027年,客户包括政府、Anthropic 和 OpenAI,因为 AI 和量子计算都需要电力、算力和设施。他还通过看涨期权和股票重仓 Apple,理由包括即将到来的 CEO 更替——可能是 John Ternus——消费硬件,以及与 Gemini 或其他胜出 AI 服务商合作的能力。主持人则单独推荐了 IREN、TeraWulf、Bloom Energy、DHT 和 FRO。

  • Thread Guy 的 Claude 电竞机器人吃进了6年的 League of Legends 数据,收益约18%-19%,其中小仓位曾打出单日21胜0负。 他认为 Polymarket 上冷门的 Tier 3 和 Tier 4 比赛信息密度很高,但承认自己的主要问题是过度交易,因为他喜欢不断点按钮。他也喜欢会面市场和短期限 FDV 市场,包括一笔据报在 CHiP FDV 交易上赚取约27%的交易。

  • 主持人而非 Thread Guy 提到了一位被他分别称为 Euan、EUM 或 Unicar 的交易员,据称通过钱包追踪和资金管理把15,000美元变成了800,000美元。 主持人说自己通过 ENS、数层隐藏交易和 tumbler 追踪到一个钱包,随后跟单赚取据报40,000-50,000美元。Thread Guy 表示,钱包追踪既琐碎又充满死胡同。

  • Thread Guy 的资金管理规则是“先重仓,再慢慢加仓”。 他的100美元挑战一度做到约1,500美元,之后因分心中断:小账户必须激进博取波动,但资金规模变大后应该靠一垒安打式的稳定收益管理仓位。除此之外,主持人还介绍了自己如何使用并重置小额公开交易账户,以控制不断点单的冲动。

  • 收尾讨论涵盖 MegaETH FDV 市场,以及主持人关于 DHT/FRO 油轮的交易逻辑。 主持人列出了 MegaETH 的概率,Thread Guy 认为20亿美元的估值合理,随后在约0.66美元的价格下倾向于做空1.8亿美元以上的 FDV,并更愿意等待实时价格发现。主持人称,3月底 disruption 期间,DHT 和 FRO 的油轮日租金曾达到约500,000美元,可能为一季度业绩带来尚未被充分定价的上行尾风。主持人还表示,脑中所有信号都告诉他应该做空,但反复止损出局迫使他重新评估。

摘要 · 为研究而整理的核心内容

1. HOOD 是一场押注 Gen Z 的金融交易

  • 主持人说自己在30美元附近买入 HOOD,并一直公开看多。Thread Guy 表示 HOOD 是自己的最大仓位,即使股价接近160美元,也一美元仓位都没卖。

  • Thread Guy 的逻辑“极其简单”:年轻用户不像老一代那样忠于传统银行,可以在一个应用里获得银行服务、房贷、预测市场、加密货币和股票交易。他预计 Robinhood 的年轻用户群和用户数量还会继续增长。

  • 针对主持人拿 IBKR 作比较,Thread Guy 表示两类平台服务的用户群不同:IBKR 用户净资产更高、消费能力更强,但单个用户的交易量更低;Robinhood 则面向净资产较低、交易更活跃的用户。

  • 两位嘉宾都批评了 SpaceX 约1.5万亿美元、Anthropic 约1.2万亿美元、OpenAI 约1万亿美元估值下的散户 IPO 前投资。Thread Guy 认为,更广泛的参与最终可能对散户有利,但个人不应交易 IPO 前资产,因为风险收益比极差。

2. 7月23日是肽类催化剂

  • Thread Guy 更偏好 LFMD,而不是 HIMS:股价约4.64美元,年内上涨约35%,估值约2亿美元。他的理由是 LFMD 自有药房,因此如果获批,就具备复配肽类药物的基础设施。

  • 他称7月23日将召开关于复配肽类药物审批的 FDA 会议,给予获批70%-80%的概率,并预测如果结果利好,股价会出现“Avis 级别的 K 线”。他表示,如果被拒,板块会“狠狠回撤”,但认为获批只是时间问题,而不是能否获批的问题。

  • Thread Guy 也称 HIMS 是一笔不错的多头交易,理由包括分销基础设施、供应链、月度订阅用户,以及与 Novo Nordisk 的合作——销售白标 Wegovy 和 Ozempic。他表示,如果更新一代的 GLP 产品上市,会考虑做空 Novo;Novo 虽然拥有 GLP-1 的生产能力,但为新产品取得时间、许可证和审批仍需周期。

  • 他研究了从实验室获取 retatrutide 的难易程度后买入一份,但从未服用。他说,重新去健身房并记录卡路里后,他开始怀疑,认真做这些事是否也能带来类似效果,同时担心药物未知的后果。

3. 掌握 AI 与算力底层的基础设施

  • Thread Guy 的“金字塔底层”逻辑让他避开 Nvidia、Google 和 Microsoft,转而投资基础设施。他看好 PWR/Quanta,因为公司建设数据中心,订单储备覆盖至2027年,合同客户包括政府、Anthropic 和 OpenAI。

  • 他的逻辑是,AI 和量子计算都需要更多电力、算力和设施。无论最终哪一个系统胜出,建设这些设施的公司都能受益。

  • Thread Guy 还通过看涨期权和股票重仓 Apple。他提到 Tim Cook 计划离任,接任者可能是 John Ternus;同时 Mac、Mac Studio 和 Mac mini 的需求强劲。他认为 Apple 不需要自己开发最终胜出的 AI 应用,只要在提供消费硬件层的同时,与 Gemini 或最终胜出的服务商合作即可。

  • 主持人另外推荐了 IREN 和 TeraWulf,提到 Bloom Energy 与 Leopold Aschenbrenner 的能源和 GPU 逻辑有关,之后又给出 DHT 和 FRO 作为替代交易。Thread Guy 的收尾清单包括 PWR、ETN、Apple,以及 Hyperliquid 多头仓位。

  • Thread Guy 认为,未来 Anthropic 和 OpenAI 上市时也会像 SpaceX 一样偏空,因为3家估值超过1万亿美元的公司可能耗尽市场可用流动性。

4. Polymarket 提供冷门优势,也诱发过度交易

  • Thread Guy 称,他把约6年的 League of Legends 数据输入 Claude 机器人,用于交易电竞市场。他表示机器人收益一直约为18%-19%,小仓位时曾出现单日21胜0负。

  • Polymarket 提供 Tier 3 和 Tier 4 电竞比赛,体育博彩平台通常不会上线这些赛事,但网上数据足以对其进行分析。Thread Guy 的问题不在信息,而在行为:赚到第一笔钱后,他可能在多场比赛里砸下数百美元,最后全部吐回去。“我就是喜欢点按钮。”

  • 他偏好会面市场,因为新闻标题、代表团报告和航班追踪器都能提供信息。他讨论了4月26日和4月27日与伊朗有关的会面市场中的“否”仓位,理由是代表团看起来不太可能在下一周之前抵达。

  • 他也喜欢短期限 FDV 市场,因为市场会在次日美国东部时间下午4:00结算。关于 CHiP,他表示通过观察走势图和主要资产,对价格走势形成了更好的判断,约1个半小时内据报赚取约27%;不过对话也澄清,他交易的是 FDV 市场,而不是 CHiP 代币本身。

5. 链上可见性揭示交易对手

  • 主持人介绍了自己在 MrBeast 是否会为 TeamWater 筹集300万美元这一 Polymarket 市场中的一笔大交易。筹款连续7天表现疲弱后,他研究了过往活动,发现大多数捐款都集中在最后72小时。他称自己押注“是”后,约1,000美元变成了据报67,000美元。

  • 主持人还介绍了 Lord Miles 沙漠禁食市场中的一笔交易:通过追踪钱包,他发现了自己所称的自成交,并据此退出。

  • 他重点提到了一位在对话中被称为 Euan、EUM 或 Unicar 的交易员,据报通过资金管理和钱包追踪,将15,000美元变成了800,000美元。主持人说,一个通过 ENS 注资的钱包与一名政府官员有关,资金经过6层隐藏和一个 tumbler,匹配资金在2小时后出现。他称自己跟单该钱包后赚取了40,000-50,000美元。

  • Thread Guy 表示,自己始终没能做好钱包追踪,因为这项工作琐碎且充满死胡同。主持人认为,预测市场仍然异常具有可操作性,因为交易者可以查看排行榜、可视化仓位,并看到谁在交易的另一侧。

6. 当前交易需要耐心与仓位纪律

  • 主持人列出的 MegaETH FDV 概率是:超过12亿美元约70%,超过14亿美元约65%,超过16亿美元约48%,超过20亿美元约29%;Hyperliquid 市场估值约18亿美元。Thread Guy 认为20亿美元感觉合理,但随后推断,持有时间很长的投资者可能会选择卖出。

  • Thread Guy 后来认为,在“否”一侧以约0.66美元押注低于18亿美元是一个不错的设置,但更愿意等待实时价格发现,因为市场有明确的关闭时间,赔率可能剧烈波动。两人并不确定具体的解锁机制:主持人先提到解锁20%,随后补充说他认为可能是20%的20%;Thread Guy 则表示细节需要核实。

  • Thread Guy 从交易挑战中总结出的经验是“先重仓,再慢慢加仓”。他的100美元账户一度做到约1,500美元,后来因分心中断。他表示,小账户必须激进博取波动,而账户变大后,交易者可以不断积累一垒安打,不必再靠赌博求生。

  • 主持人另外解释说,他会使用小额公开交易账户,并从那些容易让自己点单的平台取出资金,以限制过度交易。

  • 主持人给出的替代能源交易是 DHT 和 FRO。他称这两家公司拥有大型油轮,在3月底 disruption 期间日租金曾达到约500,000美元,比此前关闭或延迟时高出约200%。由于3月最后14天计入第一季度,他预计业绩会超过市场假设,并认为即使油价和股价都走低,这一机会仍未被充分重视。

  • 主持人说,脑中所有信号都告诉他应该做空,但反复止损出局迫使他尊重市场持续上行的趋势。Thread Guy 同意这种情况“每一次都这样”。

Speaker 1

Boom. Easy with a new username. I was trying to find your profile today, and I was struggling, but I figured it out now, man. How are you?

Thread Guy

I’m good, bro. I cannot complain. Life is good. I’ve been busy.

Speaker 1

I know. I’ve been following. Is that a sponsored hat, by the way?

Thread Guy

No, I wish. I’m a massive Robinhood holder.

Speaker 1

Yeah, I was buying. Dude, if you go back and search up “Hood” on my page, I was screaming from the mountaintops at $30. I was screaming about this thing.

Really? Is that one of your best trades ever?

Thread Guy

What’d you say?

Speaker 1

Is that one of your best trades ever?

Thread Guy

It’s my largest allocation, and I haven’t sold any.

Speaker 1

You didn’t sell Hood the whole run-up?

Thread Guy

No.

Speaker 1

Not even at $160? You didn’t sell any?

Thread Guy

Not a single dollar. I’m not going to sell.

Speaker 1

Why, bro?

Thread Guy

The bet on Hood is the simplest bet of all time, in my opinion. My entire thesis on Hood is that Gen Z finance is only going to continue to become more online, and the bet is that younger generations don’t have allegiance to banking like older generations do.

When you think of it from our parents’ perspective—and even myself—I’m a Capital One guy. I’ve been with Capital One forever, basically since I was 18, because it was one of the first times I could get everything on my phone. But now these younger generations can get everything in an app, from banking to mortgages to prediction markets to crypto to equities, all in one app.

The entire thesis is wicked simple: I believe those people are going to continue to increase their user numbers, and their target demographic is a younger generation.

Speaker 1

I said, what about IBKR? It’s ripping. I was going to talk about that.

Thread Guy

They’re ripping because of fees and because the average user has a much higher spend. They’re two different demographics. You’re looking for lower net worth and higher volume on Robinhood, while IBKR is targeting higher-net-worth users with lower individual volume.

Speaker 1

Got it. That thing is—fees are ripping on IBKR. Also, I’m sitting here watching Korean stocks, SK Hynix, and thinking to myself, why don’t I have access to any of this?

Thread Guy

Which is the crazy part. You’re going to get access to that. That’s the reality. We’re already seeing it: tokenized equities are just the start. You’re going to end up getting more and more access to international markets and even private equity.

I’m not a big private equity guy. You could go into these pre-IPO stocks, but I’m not touching Anthropic at a trillion dollars. I’m not touching SpaceX at a trillion dollars. There are significantly better plays with way more upside, in my opinion.

Speaker 1

I think it’s pretty predatory, by the way, what they just launched. I’m just going to say it.

Thread Guy

100%.

Speaker 1

What are we doing? It’s like, “Okay, cool. Congratulations. You should thank me because I’m now giving you access to pre-IPO stocks.” Here’s SpaceX at $1.5 trillion, Anthropic at $1.2 trillion, and OpenAI at a trillion. What the fuck are we talking about, bro?

I could go and buy a pre-IPO stock in Anthropic below a trillion right now on-chain. You had the chance to do it with size—not insane size, but you could easily get five figures into a single clip with ease.

Thread Guy

You have perpetuals, pre-IPO stocks, xStocks. There are like 7 different options. Granted, you’re not getting half a million dollars into the thing, but you could easily get five figures in a single clip with ease.

Speaker 1

I think it’s pretty predatory what they did. I’m not going to lie.

Thread Guy

Completely agree. The more interesting thing, though, to your point, is Robinhood giving access to pre-IPOs.

Speaker 1

They’re kind of doing the same thing, by the way. They’re like, “Take SpaceX at $1.5 trillion.”

Thread Guy

Yeah. The SpaceX one I’m not a fan of, but you have to think they have to start somewhere. As they start somewhere, they’re going to open up their book for wider retail.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not the biggest fan of it. I’m a much bigger fan of the fact that you could have bought Anthropic or OpenAI at around $500 million. You had a 23x—not with unlimited size, but you had the opportunity. I’m more interested in that for sure.

There are pros and cons to it, but overall, when I think about that side of the market, I think that as an individual retail trader, you should not be trading pre-IPO at any point. I don’t think either of us should be trading pre-IPO. The risk-reward is terrible.

Speaker 1

It is pretty bad. I don’t touch it. People were asking me today if they should trade the Eventual stuff, and I don’t really like it.

What about HIMS? I saw you posting about it. I traded it pretty well.

Thread Guy

You had a good trade. You had a really good trade.

Speaker 1

Thank you. I saw you posting about it. Where are you at with the peptide trade and all of that?

Thread Guy

LFMD is my better play than HIMS. LifeMD.

Speaker 1

Yeah, it’s $4.64. It’s a low-priced stock. It’s up 35% on the year.

Thread Guy

You have to remember, the way I think about equities is much different from how I trade crypto—significantly different. I’ve been trading equities since I was 16.

Speaker 1

Really?

Thread Guy

I go into 10-Qs and all this stuff. I read a lot.

Speaker 1

$200 million. This is like a fucking memecoin, bro.

Thread Guy

The reason I like it is because they own a pharmacy, so they can actually compound drugs and have the ability to create compounded peptides.

July 23rd is a big date. That’s the biggest date for peptides. It’s the FDA meeting for approval of compounded peptides. If approved, LFMD is going to put in a candle that makes Intel look like child’s play. It’s going to put in an Avis-level candle, in my opinion, because they have the infrastructure to actually create compounded peptides.

Their only issue is if Eli Lilly does not allow licensing of retatrutide.

Speaker 1

What happens on July 23rd, you said?

Thread Guy

The FDA has its meeting on July 23rd for approval of compounded peptides. So if they approve it—

Speaker 1

You mean for approval?

Thread Guy

Okay. Retatrutide can be sold to the general consumer, which is where HIMS will see a leg up, because they license Wegovy and Ozempic from a company called Novo Nordisk.

Speaker 1

Yes.

Thread Guy

Novo Nordisk has a partnership with HIMS.

Speaker 1

Yeah.

Thread Guy

That partnership allows them to sell Wegovy and Ozempic white-labeled. They can sell them as HIMS products.

The benefit of HIMS is that it has the infrastructure and supply chain to distribute, and it has monthly subscribers. They have an $89-a-month subscription and 2.5 million subscribers, I believe. HIMS has a ton of money.

Speaker 1

I think that’s right. Yeah.

Thread Guy

Which is amazing. With Novo Nordisk, I actually think that if this is approved, you short Novo Nordisk.

Speaker 1

Why? Why?

Thread Guy

Because they only have GLP-1s. If GLP-3s are allowed, are off the gray market, and are allowed for retail, GLP-1s are significantly less valuable, because a GLP-3, from an agonist perspective—

Speaker 1

Couldn’t they just sell and manufacture GLP-3?

Thread Guy

They don’t have the manufacturing for it. They have the manufacturing for GLP-1s, which is why LFMD is a much more interesting play. They have the infrastructure to support GLP-1s.

Speaker 1

But surely they’re thinking about this. Truly, they’re thinking about this.

Thread Guy

They absolutely are, but it takes a while to get that up and running. You need licenses. You need a whole bunch of shit that has to come into play, and they don’t have the approvals.

Speaker 1

And so this little $200 million company—

Thread Guy

Has the approvals.

Speaker 1

Interesting. Why would you not go long HIMS?

Thread Guy

I think going long HIMS is a great play too. Going long HIMS is a great play, but when you find a winner, there are always alternative plays that usually outperform percentage-wise.

Two days ago, LFMD put in a 23% candle—an absolutely ludicrous candle—and it was just on the back of HIMS being a lagging trade. I look at a lot of that stuff the same way when I go down the AI rabbit hole. I don’t want to buy Nvidia. I don’t want to buy Google with Gemini. I don’t want to buy Microsoft with its OpenAI exposure.

I want to buy shit that’s lower down the pyramid. I’m looking at data center construction companies.

Speaker 1

People are like, “That’s ridiculous.” Pull up the PWR chart and you’re going to be like, “What in the fuck?”

This thing is up 100% a year over 5 years. It’s pretty gross. Are you long this or no?

Thread Guy

I think you should still be long this. I think this is the best possible play for AI.

Speaker 1

What do they do? They build data—

Thread Guy

They’re a construction company for data centers. The benefit is that quantum is only going to need more compute, and Quanta has backlogs through 2027, with contracts from the government, Anthropic, and OpenAI.

They cover everything. As they need more electricity and compute, you need the facilities for all of it, regardless of whether you go AI or quantum. This is the company that builds them.

Speaker 1

What happens if July 23rd comes and it doesn’t get approved?

Thread Guy

They’ll all pull back extremely hard. They’ll pull back hard as fuck, but the thing is, it just kicks the can down the road. It will get approved. It’s a matter of when, not if, especially with RFK in your corner.

I think there’s a 70% to 80% chance of approval.

Speaker 1

Should I Polymarket on that?

Thread Guy

I was looking, and I couldn’t find one, but I’m sure there will be one as it gets closer.

Speaker 1

Interesting. Where are people getting their retatrutide right now? They’re just taking that, buying that shit—

Thread Guy

What’d you say?

Speaker 1

Where are people getting their Reta?

Thread Guy

Bro, there are a bunch of pharmacies—not even labs—that you can buy it from online.

So, bro, I bought Reta. I haven't taken it. I bought it and went through the whole process.

Speaker 1

Where'd you buy it from? Or can you not say?

Thread Guy

Bro, I bought it from a lab.

Speaker 1

Like, from some lab? How'd you find a company?

Thread Guy

I just went down a rabbit hole on Reddit. When I get interested in something like this, I go through the whole process to see how easy it is, what it looks like, what the friction is, all this stuff. I literally have the vial; I've never taken it, and it's just sitting in my fridge.

Speaker 1

You inject it in your ass? Is that how it works?

Thread Guy

You can inject it in your leg, your stomach, your arm—anywhere.

Speaker 1

Just for fun?

Thread Guy

Yeah. I think the people who inject it in their ass just enjoy that type of shit.

Speaker 1

Got it, got it. Why, and what would decide if you take it or not?

Thread Guy

I mean, bro, when I was going through it, I was like—

Speaker 1

I feel like you look good, bro.

Thread Guy

That was the thing. Before I took it and before I even ordered it, I just got back in the gym and started tracking calories.

Speaker 1

Like your face, bro.

Thread Guy

I just went down the rabbit hole of, “Yo, what if I actually did the work?” I was like, “Okay, if you just do the shit work, you have the same results, so why not just do the shit work?”

Speaker 1

You have the same results.

Thread Guy

I mean, I wouldn't hate taking it, but I'm just afraid of drugs. I'm taking the Hims thing, and I'm afraid. You know what I mean? I'm worried I'm going to be low T and have problems.

Speaker 1

You don't know what the repercussions are.

Thread Guy

It's a tough one.

Speaker 1

It's a tough one. Do you take finasteride?

Thread Guy

I don't take anything, bro. I take allergy medicine because my ass lives on a farm. That's it.

Speaker 1

The allergies are tough.

Thread Guy

Allergies are tough in New York—really bad.

Speaker 1

Okay. What do you make of some of the moves today? Prediction markets are up a bit, but what do you make of them? Semis are disgusting. Some of these moves are crazy.

Thread Guy

It's a no-brainer, though. Look at every tech play right now—they're absolutely shattering earnings. Tesla's beat was the biggest shock to me. I was watching Tesla, and I was like, “Fuck, I hate Tesla.”

Speaker 1

So do I.

Thread Guy

It's like launching a second coin, you know what I mean?

Speaker 1

I drive a Tesla and I hate—

Thread Guy

Yeah, bro. I love my car. I love full self-driving.

Speaker 1

Full self-driving. Do you use it or no?

Thread Guy

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Anytime, dude. I'm a pretty decent way from Miami, and I've had to go there a couple times. I just use full self-driving the whole trip because it's lazy.

Speaker 1

Whoa, full self-driving the whole way? No problem? You check on your phone?

Thread Guy

No, bro, you can just chill.

Speaker 1

You're just texting and on Twitter?

Thread Guy

Just chill, bro. It's revolutionary.

Speaker 1

But the thing is, the dev's launching another coin.

Thread Guy

Dev's launching another coin. This is my take, too. The dev has 6 other projects they're working on, right? They're spread thin.

Speaker 1

You don't sleep in full self-driving, dude.

Thread Guy

You can't sleep. There's a camera on the inside that watches your eyes. Even when you're on your phone, you have to hold your phone up because it has a sensor to make sure you're not distracted.

Speaker 1

It's what? So you're just getting surveilled by some call center?

Thread Guy

You think so, but it's all local storage. You have to think of the Tesla as a computer. It's stored on the computer in the car. There isn't internet on the computer in the car, so there's nowhere for it to export to unless you connect to Wi-Fi somewhere.

Speaker 1

Huh. Okay. So, what are you long right now?

Thread Guy

Right now, bro? I'm long Apple. I'm gigalong Apple right now.

Speaker 1

You just said you want small caps. I don't hate that, though. By the way, why are you long Apple?

Thread Guy

Tim Cook is stepping down, and the new guy is coming in. I think the new guy's fresh, by the way. If you look into his background, the guy's smart as shit.

Speaker 1

He's pretty fresh.

Thread Guy

Generationally—what's his name? John—

Speaker 1

John Ternus or something like that.

Thread Guy

Ternus. Yeah, yeah. I forget how to pronounce his last name, but when I looked into this guy, I was like, “Oh, shit. This is the dude. He gets it. He totally gets it.”

Speaker 1

I think he's fresh.

Thread Guy

Yeah, bro. When you look at that and realize all this stuff is moving in the right direction for AI and tech, the benefit of Apple is that they don't actually need an AI application.

Speaker 1

Yeah. They just plug it in, right?

Thread Guy

Dude, the Mac sales, the Mac Studio sales, the Mac mini sales—it's the application layer for the general consumer. I'm like, “Shit, this is a no-brainer.” The sell-off for Tim Cook stepping down was the perfect time to go long. I was like, “Yeah.”

Speaker 1

It didn't sell off very much, did it? A couple percent?

Thread Guy

Barely, bro. It went down to around 264 or 265, at least right now. Amazon's at an all-time high, and you have crazy AI plays ripping. Why the hell is Apple not crushing it when every one of their computers is sold out for months? For literal months.

Speaker 1

Yeah. I have 3 Macs. It's just the best product. I have a phone in the back, too. I love Apple.

Thread Guy

You're literally pitching the bull case right here. On top of it, with all this AI shit, they don't need an AI system. They can just partner with Gemini—I think it was Gemini, I'm pretty sure—for what they're going to use with Siri. That's smart, because now they don't have to worry about who wins. They can contract with whichever one they opt for, while providing the tech underneath it: the system, the actual computer.

It's a much better play. It's the same thesis I have with electricity companies, GPU rental companies, and all that stuff that benefits regardless of where AI goes. You don't need the best AI system. Just provide the tech for it to continue winning, regardless of which system is the best.

Claude's so fucking bad now. I'm so sick of it.

Speaker 1

Oh, bro, I still use it. I don't use—

Thread Guy

I'm done. I'm done after today. I'm so sick of it. It's so bad.

Speaker 1

So, are you using Codex? Are you using ChatGPT?

Thread Guy

No. I let my GPT subscription expire, and I went to use it today. My credit card had fraud on it, so I have all these subscriptions that are bricked. I didn't feel like putting a new card in, but I have to do it now because Claude is completely bricked. It's pretty horrifying.

Speaker 1

I've read a bunch of people bitching about it, and I haven't gone down the rabbit hole of messing with Claude. I talked to Maz, my absolute GOAT.

Thread Guy

Oh, I love Maz.

Speaker 1

The GOAT. He was like, “Bro, use Codex.” I was like, “Okay, if you're telling me to use Codex, I'm—”

Thread Guy

Yeah, everyone's saying Codex.

Speaker 1

It's kind of gotten a little fruity, you know?

Thread Guy

I get it. I'm constantly building and tinkering with shit, and I want something that's still good. I'm hooked on Claude because of how good it's been, but I've noticed that it's starting to be a fucking idiot. I'm like, “What are we doing here?”

Speaker 1

Someone's frying me in the chat. My credit card had fraud on it 2 months ago, and I just haven't dealt with it. They call me every day about it. Nothing works on my computer; all my subscriptions are bricked. It's pretty bad, but I have my debit card. It works fine. My debit card's fine.

Thread Guy

You're good, right?

Speaker 1

High-key, I love when that shit happens because I'm like, “Oh, this is dope.”

Thread Guy

Yeah. I just got hella cash on my debit card. The credit card's an annoying thing. Whatever. Sad side tangent.

Speaker 1

Um

Thread Guy

Real quick, someone in the chat said, “When do I go live daily?” I’m plugging myself. Live at noon Monday through Friday.

Speaker 1

It’s a good time, dude. It’s a really good time.

Thread Guy

I just like the midday, bro. I was streaming at night and I was like, “I’m just kind of tired.”

Speaker 1

Night’s ass.

Thread Guy

Yeah. And at noon, I’m like, “Oh, I get all Europe and the market’s open, so I can just rip the market during the day.” Bro, we caught the full S&P retrace yesterday live, and I was euphoric because I want to go short so bad.

Speaker 1

No, I was so mad because I was on a call for standup and I was screaming, “This is bullshit! I longed Bitcoin instead of going long.”

Thread Guy

Yeah, it didn't even dump. I'm like, “What? This is crap. This is crap.” I don't want to long SPY. That's pretty gay. I'm like, “What do I long? BTC?”

I'm still sitting in it. It's the worst asset ever. I longed BTC, and I was pissed because I was like, “Bro, this is obviously fake. Israel's Channel 12 is always fucking lying. None of this is real.” This has been a massive escalation.

This is fake. I long BTC, and I’m just stuck in a cuck coin, bro.

Speaker 1

Yeah, we caught the little hotel watching your stream earlier. How much was it? They were like, “How much do you have? 100 BTC or something? 20 BTC.” I was like, “Bro, what are we doing here?”

Thread Guy

No, we call the little hotel chair in the corner the Bitcoin chair now. It watches SK Hynix and Nvidia. It’s brutal. So, where are we at with prediction-market trading? Where are we at on Polymarket right now?

Speaker 1

Still getting cooked because, bro, I’m a degenerate. The worst part is I love gambling on esports. I love it too much.

Thread Guy

On esports.

Speaker 1

I have to stop.

Thread Guy

Yeah, I have to stop.

Speaker 1

What do you gamble on in esports, bro?

Thread Guy

Counter-Strike, League of Legends.

Speaker 1

Really?

Thread Guy

What’s even more interesting—and I wish I just didn’t click as many buttons—is that someone asked what I did with Claude. I ingested about 6 years of League of Legends data into this Claude bot that’s trading a portfolio for me right now. It’s up like 18% or 19% consistently. It’s just been a slow grind up and to the right. It takes winners, and when it hits, it hits. It had a 21–0 day on small bet size, and I was like, “Fuck.”

Speaker 1

Oh, start—

Thread Guy

Just grind. The way I thought about it, and the reason I liked it, was that these Vegas sportsbooks have some lines for esports, but Polymarket gives you lines for the most ridiculous ones. I’m talking about Tier 3 Brazilian national-team matchups that no one has ever heard of.

Speaker 1

Right. Like Brazilian Counter-Strike.

Thread Guy

Yeah. If you’re familiar with soccer, there’s the best team, like Arsenal and all this shit, and then there are Tier 2 teams and Tier 3 teams. I’m talking about Tier 3 and Tier 4 teams, but there’s so much data on them because everything’s online that you can actually find an edge. My bigger issue is that I just enjoy clicking the buttons. When I don’t have a trade open and I’m bored, I’m like, “Yeah, fuck it. Let me just rip this shit.” This is a deep, deep gambling edition.

Speaker 1

It is. I couldn’t help myself.

Thread Guy

100%. 100%. But someone else is like, “Cooker’s the GOAT.” I watch Cooker put $100 grand to win like $600 sometimes, and I’m like, “Fuck, you’re crazy.”

Speaker 1

Oh, that’s horrible.

Thread Guy

You’re crazy. I watch that, but at the same time, there’s other stuff where I’m like, “Fuck, I should just be slow-rolling this.”

Speaker 1

And so, you’re betting these on Polymarket?

Thread Guy

Everything’s on Polymarket.

Speaker 1

So, Polymarket has lines for esports that nobody else has.

Thread Guy

Yeah. A ton of them. A disgusting amount, bro.

Speaker 1

Really? So the Polymarket esports market divisions are just cracked?

Thread Guy

They just have everyone you could possibly imagine. Then I look at sportsbooks, and they don’t have lines for some of these. Those are the ones where I’m like, “Okay, there’s got to be an edge somewhere on this.” That’s the thing: I just overtrade. It’s my biggest—

Speaker 1

What is your biggest esports Polymarket loss?

Thread Guy

Single digits.

Speaker 1

Biggest, but not crazy?

Thread Guy

One day is a few grand.

Speaker 1

Okay, okay, okay.

Thread Guy

It’s not an insane balance. It’s just a slow grind down because I’ll go up, and then I’ll start hammering multiple hundreds across 6 games and go on a crazy cold streak. In reality, the best markets on prediction markets I’ve found are meeting markets, where I just wish liquidity were deeper because there’s inherently an edge. Then there are these meeting markets where I look at stuff like, “Will the US meet with Iran by—” Trump meeting with the G7 and shit like this, the Kushner and Witkoff meeting in Iran.

Speaker 1

Right.

Thread Guy

I actually like the no for this weekend, and it’s at like $0.70, which I’m like, “Yeah, this actually makes sense.” Iran isn’t sending their delegation there, and you can quite literally use flight trackers to see whether they’re there or not. I’m like, “Yeah, this makes sense,” and then you just trade off headlines. The other market that I do really well in is the FDV markets. So, when a token launches—

Speaker 1

Oh, did you do a bunch for CHiP?

Thread Guy

Yeah, CHiP. How did you do?

Speaker 1

CHiP FDV was good. I did okay. I didn’t get as much size as I wanted over $1B because, on the day it launched, you could have gotten into over $1B fairly low, which was crazy because it had that crazy run-up.

Thread Guy

I traded it. It was actually my best trade of the year, I’m not going to lie.

Speaker 1

Dude, I crashed out about CHiP because the valuation makes no sense. When you actually look at the fundamentals—

Thread Guy

You don’t look at the valuation, brother.

Speaker 1

Brother, I—you don’t look at the valuation. It’s not—it’s—

Thread Guy

I went into what the business model was.

Speaker 1

No, you do not look into the business model. Absolutely not.

Thread Guy

You never peel back the—

Speaker 1

No. Not on day one. Absolutely not. Absolutely not.

So, I’m excited for the MegaETH FDV market, though.

Thread Guy

Okay.

Speaker 1

That’s the next big one because that supposedly happens in 7 days, right?

Thread Guy

Yeah. They posted a timer, right?

Speaker 1

Yeah, because they got to 10 apps.

Thread Guy

Which was crazy, by the way.

Speaker 1

They got to 10 apps, and one of the apps left. Wait, was that the number? Ten people launching, and then they’re going to—

Thread Guy

You needed 10 apps with over 100,000 active wallets or some shit like that, or some amount of volume.

Speaker 1

100,000 wallets? Where are those coming from?

Thread Guy

Yeah, don’t get me wrong, bro.

Speaker 1

100,000 wallets.

Thread Guy

You just said it yourself: don’t pull back the curtain, right? That’s crazy. 100,000 wallets. Give me a break.

Speaker 1

But then one of them shut down, so I was like, “Okay, is this still launching?” The FDV markets right now are over $1.2B at 70%, over $1.4B at 65%, and $1.6B at—

Thread Guy

Wait, wait. Run through it one more time.

Speaker 1

Over $1.6B is at 48%. Over $1.4B is at 65%, $1.2B at 70%, and $2B at 29%. The actual market on Hyperliquid right now is $1.8B. It touched—

Thread Guy

$2B feels reasonable. I’m not going to lie.

Speaker 1

I don’t agree. I actually think it goes much lower.

Thread Guy

Much lower? What was the last round at? What did they raise at? I’d have to check.

Speaker 1

I don’t know, but $1.8B—what was Monad at pre-TGE?

Thread Guy

Yeah, on Hyperliquid.

Speaker 1

Uh-oh. Pre-TGE, Monad was still low. Like—

Thread Guy

Mine’s at $3B.

Speaker 1

$3B. Yeah, yeah. I was going to say I don’t think it’s that low. That’s why I said $2B feels reasonable.

Thread Guy

No, Monad’s not at $3B. 0.3.

Speaker 1

Is that $300M?

Thread Guy

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Three. Three. 100% three.

Speaker 1

Is it? This thing’s trading at 0.3. I’ve got to double-check because I—

Thread Guy

No, I’m almost positive. Yeah, $3.1B FDV. Yeah, yeah. Hell yeah.

Speaker 1

Okay, okay, okay, okay.

Thread Guy

Hell yeah.

Speaker 1

That’s pretty good.

Thread Guy

That’s pretty good. So, maybe you get over $2B, but you have to think, bro, the average user has been sitting and waiting for this TGE for so long.

Speaker 1

Fair. Fair.

Thread Guy

Everybody has—what? How do unlocks work on this?

Speaker 1

20%. They get 20% day one.

Thread Guy

And what are the rest?

Speaker 1

I think it’s all KPI-driven.

Thread Guy

What percent do they unlock? 10%?

Speaker 1

20% is unlocked.

Thread Guy

20% of what? And it’s all unlocked day one?

Speaker 1

I believe 20% of 20%.

Thread Guy

Yeah, I think so. I have to double-check a couple points of it. But all these people who got into the round are going to want out, right?

Speaker 1

Yeah. Which is a matter of how much they can stomach sitting for so long. They’re out. No, you’re out. You’re totally out.

Thread Guy

So, I’m like, under $1.8B at $0.66 on the no, and it’s at $1.8B right now. That feels like a decent play. The benefit with these FDV markets is that they close at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time the following day, so you can basically just watch the market.

Speaker 1

Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Thread Guy

You know when it ends. On the day, you can watch it. These odds move like crazy. They move like crazy. So, I’m like, “Yeah, I would much rather watch it, not even take a position until we see where the price is, and then trade off of that.”

Speaker 1

Yeah, it’s just tough because you never know how willing these people are to commit financial crimes, you know?

Thread Guy

10,000%, bro. I mean—

Speaker 1

It’s tough. How do you gauge how willing they are to commit crime? It’s tough.

Thread Guy

If a US soldier is willing to bet on his success capturing Nicolás Maduro, what are they going to do with the market?

Speaker 1

By the way, Pete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame.

Thread Guy

10,000%. What are we talking about? There’s a total distinction that has to be made here between betting against your team and betting for your team. They’re fundamentally very—

Speaker 1

Capture him, bro.

Thread Guy

They’re very different actions.

Speaker 1

There’s a difference between Terry Rozier and Pete Rose.

Thread Guy

I agree. One is anti-patriotic, and you can argue the other is maximally patriotic. This man wasn’t saying he wasn’t going to capture him or that they were going to fail the mission. He was saying, “We’re going to go in there and take names.”

Speaker 1

If anything, he was working harder, right? One is sabotaging, and the other is—you have more on the line. It’s not just your life; it’s your inheritance.

I mean, bro, how much do these guys make? Making $400K—come on, man.

Thread Guy

Yeah, I wonder what they do make.

Speaker 1

I bet, dude, this guy was a master sergeant in the Navy SEALs or whatever it is. I bet he made some decent bread.

Thread Guy

Navy SEAL master sergeant? Did you make that up, or is that a real title?

Speaker 1

That was his actual title.

Thread Guy

Salary. Skin in the game.

Speaker 1

You make $90K a year, brother.

Thread Guy

Yeah, so he was a master sergeant because I posted a short email.

Speaker 1

A master sergeant makes $90K a year? That doesn't sound right.

Thread Guy

It was a master sergeant. I don't know. That's the title they had in the article for this guy, so I was like, “Okay, cool.” They get good benefits.

Speaker 1

They do get good benefits, and they get the—what do you call it—the pension?

Thread Guy

Yeah. You have a government pension for life.

Speaker 1

Yeah.

Thread Guy

So you're going to make $90K for the rest of your life after doing, what is it, 4 years, 8 years?

Speaker 1

I would have done that, too. Wait, did you make money on CHiP or no?

Thread Guy

I didn't trade it.

Speaker 1

You didn't trade it?

Thread Guy

I didn't trade it.

Speaker 1

No, I traded a tiny bit. I didn't trade the coin. I traded a little bit of the FDV market.

Thread Guy

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1

You made a little bit, you said?

Thread Guy

Yeah. It was because, bro, going in at around 2:33 p.m., you see the chart and have a much better gauge of where price action is going. You can watch the majors, and the majors still dictate some of these moves. Bitcoin was grinding up, and CHiP was where I liked it. I was like, “It's going to at least hold here.” So I think I had around a 27% gain on it. It wasn't crazy, but I was happy with it.

Speaker 1

It's quick, too, right?

Thread Guy

That's what I'm saying. In an hour and a half, you could have gotten filled on a decent bag—not $100K, but enough for me to be like, “Yeah, for an hour and a half of work, that's great.”

Speaker 1

Word. What else do you like on Polymarket right now?

Thread Guy

So, like I said, I like those meeting markets for this weekend. I think those are actually decent. The diplomatic meeting on April 26 is at 74% no, which is by Sunday. You have April 27, which is Monday, at 62% no. You can basically just watch the headlines and figure this out. It seems like Iran's not going to meet until next week.

Speaker 1

Hey, what do you think your biggest learning was from the trading challenge?

Thread Guy

Size early, then size slow. That trading challenge—we ran $100 to around $1,500, and then I just got distracted. But the biggest thing there was that when you start with a low balance, you have to size aggressively because you don't have enough capital.

Speaker 1

It's tough. Yeah.

Thread Guy

It makes you trade worse. You trade worse.

Speaker 1

Yeah, and you have to take really aggressive swings.

Thread Guy

You do have to take aggressive swings, which makes you do some crazy stuff because you're like, “I need to increase this so that my downside risk is much lower.”

Speaker 1

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Thread Guy

But then you get to a certain point where it's like, “Okay, now we can just stack base hits, and we don't have to worry about the downside.” Short-stack poker type.

Speaker 1

Yeah, I was about to read that aloud.

Thread Guy

Short stack. Some people are good at it. Some people are really good at short-stack poker, but I'm not.

Speaker 1

Yeah.

Thread Guy

Well, it's boring. It's boring. I want to gamble.

Speaker 1

I want to hammer it, dude. My biggest issue is I like to click buttons too much. I know that's my biggest issue. I'm so self-aware that, even right now in this choppy market, I've moved so much money out of places where it's easy for me to click and spend money. I always reset trading balances because I'm like, “I'm just going to burn this.” So I'll put $1,000 on Hyperliquid and see what we can run it up to, or zero it out. That feels way better.

Thread Guy

You're a big trader. You love a good trading challenge.

Speaker 1

Because it just keeps you sane. That's the thing. I enjoy doing it on stream. I have a brokerage account, and I put $1,000 in it that I've been trading on stream.

Thread Guy

Yeah, that's nice.

Speaker 1

Purely because the audience can relate to it, too. It's not as fun if I go in there with $100K and take much bigger positions, versus talking through a lot of the stuff and my thesis on a smaller bankroll. Your thesis has to make sense, versus being able to just gamble.

Thread Guy

It's a good take. During all this—or maybe outside the trading challenge—what is your best trade? Maybe not even just P&L. It can be P&L if you want, but just your sickest trade.

Speaker 1

Oh, I mean, Robinhood at $30.

Thread Guy

Polymarket, that too. But on Polymarket—

Speaker 1

Oh, my best Polymarket trade was a MrBeast TeamWater market. That was how I first found Polymarket.

Thread Guy

It was, “Will MrBeast raise $3 million for TeamWater?”

Speaker 1

You said obviously yes, right?

Thread Guy

I took yes, but there were 7 days when he hadn't raised more than $100 a day. During those days, I looked into his project history and his projects. He had done another one, and I researched when the majority of the investments came in. It was always in the last 72 hours. So I was like, “Okay, he's going to hit this. He's never missed one of these.” I was like, “Yeah, let's rip this.” It was a $67K gain on that, using only around $1,000. I was like, “Okay, this is a really good return,” because everyone was saying he wasn't going to do it.

I traded the Lord Miles Desert Fast[?].

Speaker 1

That—

Thread Guy

That was the first time I realized that with Polymarket, you can track wallets really easily. I was able to exit when he started self-trading because we're crypto-native—we understand what to look for and are willing to do the work.

Then I talked to this guy, Euan. Have you ever—do you know who Euan is?

Speaker 1

Yeah, I think so.

Thread Guy

Euan, I believe? I interviewed him. He's one of my favorite guys I've ever talked to because of the way he trades.

Speaker 1

Yeah, EUM. That's what it is.

Thread Guy

Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He is my—

Speaker 1

Yeah, Unicar is the guy's name.

Thread Guy

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I do, I do.

Speaker 1

When I—

Thread Guy

I actually like this guy, dude. He's amazing at wallet tracking. That's all he does. He doesn't trade any position unless he's going down the blockchain for it. And he's not crypto-native.

Speaker 1

That's why I was really interested when I heard his story. He turned $15K into $800K, 100% off wallet tracking.

Thread Guy

$15K to $800K, you said?

Speaker 1

$15K to $800K.

Thread Guy

To $800K.

Speaker 1

Yeah.

Thread Guy

Jesus.

Speaker 1

And it's 100% off wallet tracking. I was like, “Okay, this is really interesting.” That's why this stuff makes way more sense to me when I look into it. It's a true crypto-native product where you have the ability to see who your counterparty is. Unlike a lot of this stuff, where you have to put in a little more effort, you can quite literally see the leaderboard of who's on the other side. There are a bunch of good apps out now where you can visualize that data. If you want to get into prediction markets, you should be using that information to find edges.

Thread Guy

$15K to $800K is gross.

Speaker 1

Disgusting. Just absolutely disgusting.

Thread Guy

Damn.

Speaker 1

Yeah, dude. There are people like that. And like I said, he comes from sports gambling and horse racing, so he's never traded crypto before. He's purely about bankroll management and wallet tracking. I'm like, “This is really interesting.”

Thread Guy

I don't do a lot of wallet tracking, honestly. There was an era of a lot of meme coins where I was kind of hyped about it, but I never got that good at it. It's very tedious, and a lot of it is just dead ends.

Speaker 1

A ton of dead ends. When you find something, bro—he found this one wallet, and what was wicked interesting about it was that he went down this rabbit hole and found a wallet that got funded by an ENS. The ENS was a government official's name.

Thread Guy

Whoa.

Speaker 1

They were so secretive about it. It was like 6 layers of obfuscation. They tried to put it through a tumbler. He matched the tumbler, where this amount went in and the exact same amount came out 2 hours later. That was what funded the Polymarket account.

Thread Guy

And then, is there a climax where he copy-traded him, or—

Speaker 1

He copy-traded him. I think that was his biggest win. I think he made around $40K or $50K off one trade.

Thread Guy

Whoa.

Speaker 1

Yeah, dude got it. When he talked about that, I was like, “Okay.”

Thread Guy

What was the market? Do you remember, or no?

Speaker 1

I don't remember the exact market. I want to say—

Thread Guy

Probably some war-related [censored]. Gotta be, right?

Speaker 1

Yeah, I think it was probably some war-related [censored].

Thread Guy

It always is. It's always some war-related [censored], bro.

Speaker 1

But I have it on YouTube. I could go into it. He talks about the whole trade, and it's not a long interview. I was doing these 20-minute interviews with really good traders. He's on there. I talked to PMT and a couple of these other guys.

Thread Guy

When I talked to him—

Speaker 1

Yeah, dude. I just looked it up. This video with him is 20 minutes long.

Thread Guy

Sick.

Speaker 1

He talks about the trade, and it was purely copy-trading. Exactly 20 minutes. It's my most-viewed interview. This is the one with him. I'm probably going to go back and rewatch it because I forget a lot of the context, but I'm like, “This dude got it.” When he broke it all down, I was like, “Okay, this is why it's interesting to have stuff on-chain.”

Real quick, who do you think wins the NBA championship?

Thread Guy

I mean, it's obviously the under—

Speaker 1

I bought T-Wolves at 1.4 cents.

That's what I did for March Madness, and I liked that I bought Kansas, Arkansas, and a couple others. I only bought the T-Wolves, and I sold them a couple times.

I mean, the T-Wolves could win. I don't know. Boston—what's Boston?

Thread Guy

Boston's at 12%.

Speaker 1

Boston could win. I mean, bro, I'm a Celtics fan. I love it. I'm a Celtics and UConn fan, bro. Boston could win. Detroit absolutely cannot win. No shot.

Thread Guy

No, bro. Houston's terrible. The Nuggets are terrible.

Speaker 1

The thing is, I think the Spurs are just too young.

Thread Guy

The Hawks stink. The Hawks stink. The Knicks stink. Wemby is hurt.

Speaker 1

That's the issue. I'm excited for Castle's development on the Spurs because they have the right pieces.

Thread Guy

Those dudes have the pieces, bro. OKC stinks. The Knicks stink. The Hawks stink. The issue is, bro, you got free-throw merchants.

Speaker 1

The Cavs stink.

Thread Guy

The free-throw merchants are crazy, bro. The Cavs are playing Toronto. They stink.

Speaker 1

The Raptors are—

Thread Guy

Everybody stinks. Detroit stinks. No way Detroit wins. Detroit stinks, too.

Speaker 1

Zero percent chance.

Thread Guy

Who's the second-highest?

Speaker 1

The Spurs, at 13%.

Thread Guy

Philly is pretty good.

Speaker 1

I don't know, bro. I like Philly.

Thread Guy

Philly's pretty good, bro.

Speaker 1

I think everyone else stinks.

Thread Guy

At 1%?

Speaker 1

Philly's pretty good. They can't win, though, because Embiid doesn't play, and they stink. But Philly's pretty good. They stink.

Thread Guy

There are 16,000 shares right now for $100.

Speaker 1

Wow. Philly stinks, but I like them. And OKC is just unbelievable. Unbelievable.

Thread Guy

I hate Shai's game, bro. I hate—

Speaker 1

The Suns might not come within 10 points the whole season. Are you going to trade SpaceX on Polymarket?

Thread Guy

I don't know. The toughest part with those is that they have a market for closing. What does it close at on day one?

Speaker 1

That's tough.

Thread Guy

It's 50% that it'll be over $2 trillion.

Speaker 1

That's a tough market. I'm not going to lie.

Thread Guy

That is a tough market, dude.

Speaker 1

I like the Acquired Cursor market. I think they do acquire Cursor.

Thread Guy

Oh, it's based on some revenue numbers that have to be hit.

Speaker 1

Yeah, revenue numbers. And if they don't, they have to pay a $10 billion fee. Cursor does.

Thread Guy

No, SpaceX does too. Cursor—

Speaker 1

Oh, wow. That's a sick finesse. Keep running your business with a $10 billion fee.

Thread Guy

That's what I'm saying. But at the same time, bro, what's $10 billion to an AI company? They spend more than that.

Speaker 1

They spend more than that.

Thread Guy

The average $200 user on Claude costs $2,000.

Speaker 1

That's why they nuked my OpenClaw, right?

Thread Guy

They nuked the $20 user. Yeah. I'm actually bearish on a lot of the AI companies when they IPO. There's not enough liquidity in the market. When Anthropic and OpenAI both IPO with SpaceX, you have 3 companies IPOing over $1 trillion. What are we doing here? What are we doing here?

Speaker 1

Up only until then, though.

Thread Guy

10,000%. Up only until then.

Speaker 1

Okay.

Thread Guy

Sorry, go ahead.

Speaker 1

I was going to say, up only until then. I want to be short. Everything in my brain tells me to be short. Everything. The hardest part is that every time I go short, I get stopped out because the market continues to grind higher. The market can stay irrational longer than I can stay liquid, and I hate to admit it.

Thread Guy

Every single time, right?

Speaker 1

Every time. It never fails. It's a 100% hit rate.

Thread Guy

Okay, word. As a sign-off, when you come on, give me some trade ideas. Give me some tickers, some trade ideas, some things to watch. You gave me a couple, but just reiterate and add anything if you want to add.

Speaker 1

Yeah. For trade ideas, I think IREN and TeraWulf are the 2 that I really like.

Thread Guy

Cooking.

Speaker 1

IREN and TeraWulf are the 2 that I really, really like. I think if you want to follow the Leopold Aschenbrenner playbook, Bloom Energy—

Thread Guy

Dude, he's hands down one of the best investors of all time. He just has it. I read his entire 165-page thesis. The whole thing.

Speaker 1

Do I need to read that?

Thread Guy

Yes.

Speaker 1

Really, dude? How long did it take?

Thread Guy

Longer than I want to admit. It's not a fun read.

Speaker 1

It's like a 10-hour type of thing.

Thread Guy

Yeah, it's slow. It's a lot of math and a lot of numbers, but when you read it, it's like—when I got to the end, I was like, “Oh, this is situational awareness. This is what this is.”

Speaker 1

Yeah, that's his hedge fund. The thing is, he outlined the best trade you could possibly make for the next 5 years.

Thread Guy

It's energy.

Speaker 1

It's energy. Yeah, energy and GPUs. That's it. I see a lot of people saying, “Yeah, get AI to read it.” It doesn't give you the full version.

Thread Guy

Yeah. It gives you a third-grade-level version, but I like those. And then PWR and ETN—PWR and ETN. They're construction companies. I really like those because that's not even in his thesis, but it's still derived from the same general idea.

Speaker 1

Yeah.

Thread Guy

Yeah, because they're AI-proof. It doesn't matter who wins, and even if they go down quantum, they're still the best one. I'm like, these are such no-brainers, in my opinion.

And then Apple—Apple right now is my second-biggest long position besides Robinhood stock.

Speaker 1

Damn. Well, you have calls or what do you have?

Thread Guy

I have calls, shares, and I'm long Hyperliquid. I'm long across the board on Apple.

Speaker 1

Yeah.

Thread Guy

Okay.

Speaker 1

I'm very long Apple because the more I look into Apple, the more I'm like, this makes sense.

And then, if you want an alternative play for the oil bet, DHT and FRO are the 2 tickers I like. They're both oil shipping companies. They own what's called mega tankers, the biggest ones. They were charging half a million dollars a day to transport oil at the peak of the Strait of Hormuz closure.

Thread Guy

Wow.

Speaker 1

That's 200% higher than the last time there was a closure or delay. If you look at when that happened, it was late March, which falls into Q1 earnings. When their earnings come out, the last 14 days of March should shatter their earnings expectations because nobody was pricing it in.

Thread Guy

Nobody was pricing it in. Damn.

Speaker 1

Yeah. I like a lot of this alternative stuff. I think a little bit outside of the box.

Thread Guy

That was interesting. What ticker was that? One more time.

Speaker 1

DHT and FRO. FRO is Frontline, and DHT is DHT Holdings.

Thread Guy

Sick. I'm going to go look at that.

Speaker 1

Yeah, I like those a lot. DHT is only at $18, and I think FRO is at around $20-something. Even with oil going down, FRO was at $35.

Thread Guy

But even with oil going down, these are literally just trading flat right now. That was even when oil was over $100, closer to $105.

Speaker 1

Damn. Bet. I'm going to go look at that.

Thread Guy

Chat, I'll get you a list of the tickers. Yeah, I'll get you a list of all the tickers. Dude, thanks for coming on.

Speaker 1

Easy pressure, man. Enjoy the farm, dudes. By the way, last thing before you leave: the Jets' draft is just tough.

Thread Guy

Bro, what the fuck are we doing?

Speaker 1

It's tough. At least they got back and drafted a receiver, but, man, it's just tough. It's tough.

Thread Guy

Every year I have such high hopes, dude. I had the jersey with his name on the back.

Speaker 1

I know. I'm looking out. I don't want to say anything. It's just tough. It's tough.

Thread Guy

There's never been a worse situation than being a Jets fan. You stare at Leman, and you just don't pick him. It's tough.

Speaker 1

You had him on the board. You had—

Thread Guy

You had him on the board.

Speaker 1

You had him on the board. They got back in and picked a receiver, so—

Thread Guy

Listen, it is what it is. It is what it is.

Speaker 1

It is what it is. And we're not Rams fans, is what I'll say.

Thread Guy

No, exactly. Cool.

Speaker 1

Thank God. We'll talk.

Thread Guy

Thanks, brother. Have a good one. Peace.

Speaker 1

He actually had some good tickers for us. I'm not going to lie. What broker does he use? I think Robinhood. He's always on Robinhood. Robinhood, how do you feel about long Apple? I don't hate it. I don't hate it. That was actually fire. I like that a lot.
