Daily episodes from Milk Road Analysts covering the companies, trends and economic impacts that shape the stock market.

Latest Episodes

There’s a 50% Chance AI Kills Us by 2050

We called Micron (217%), Credo (191%), Nebius (146%), and Bloom Energy (130%) before their big runs.Want to see what we’re buying next? Come join us for just $1: https://milkroad.com/pro/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=youtube_stocks&utm_campaign=lg_07/27In this episode of Milk Road AI, LG sits down with Liron Shapira, founder of Doom Debates, to explore one of the most controversial questions in artificial intelligence: Could AI wipe out humanity? Liron argues there’s a 50% chance AI leads to human extinction by 2050, explaining why he believes superintelligence could eventually surpass human control. But here’s the twist: despite his doomsday outlook, he’s still incredibly bullish on AI stocks and believes we’re only at the beginning of the biggest wealth creation event in history.

The AI Power Crisis Is Creating a Huge Opportunity

In today's episode, we break down why energy availability has become the ultimate bottleneck for the AI data center build-out and why Bloom Energy is positioned to become a core power platform for AI infrastructure.Analyst C explains why traditional power grid connections - which can take up to seven years - are driving data center operators toward "behind-the-meter" fuel cell solutions that can deploy on-site power in just 60 to 90 days.We dive into Bloom's native compatibility with Nvidia's 800V DC rack architecture, its major deals with hyperscalers like Oracle and Nebius, how the company plans to scale its manufacturing capacity, and why the stock's recent pullback offers a prime buying opportunity for long-term investors.

The Next 12 Months Will Make or Break AI w/ Ben Bajarin

Our analysts called Micron (+217%), Nebius (+146%), and Bloom Energy (+130%). See what they’re buying next with Milk Road PRO - now 33% OFF: https://milkroad.com/pro/discount/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=podcast_campaign_ai&utm_campaign=yt_lg_13In this episode of Milk Road AI, we sit down with Ben Bajarin, CEO of Creative Strategies and one of Silicon Valley’s longest-tenured technology analysts, to break down what’s really driving the AI market. From the dot-com bubble to today’s AI infrastructure race, Ben explains why the next 12 months could determine whether the trillion-dollar AI investment thesis holds up.

Missed Micron? The $7.5 Trillion Robotics Boom Starts Now

In this episode, we break down why robotics could become the next major investment megatrend, why Wall Street is starting to pay attention, and which companies could benefit the most as humanoid robots move from hype to reality. We cover Morgan Stanley’s $7.5 trillion robotics forecast, why China is racing ahead in humanoid robots, Tesla’s Optimus ambitions, and why the biggest winners may not be the robot makers themselves, but the companies supplying the chips, memory, sensors, actuators, and AI powering every robot.

Micron Could Be Much Bigger Than Anyone Realizes

We break down why Micron's jaw-dropping quarterly earnings completely shattered Wall Street's consensus, how the explosive demand for High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) is rewriting the rules of tech hardware pricing, and why the standard memory boom-and-bust cycle has officially been broken.Analyst A joins the show to explain why major hyperscalers are locked in a desperate "fomo" land grab to legally secure physical capacity, how the relentless rollout of autonomous AI agents is consuming ungodly amounts of memory behind the scenes, and why structural constraints mean a true supply catch-up won't arrive for years.

3 Stocks We Think Can Beat The AI Infrastructure Trade w/ Analyst D Reidhead

For two years, investors have piled into AI infrastructure: chips, memory, data centers, energy. But what if the next wave of AI winners looks completely different? Analyst D Reidhead breaks down the 3 stocks he's buying right now, why he's rotating away from some of the most crowded AI trades, and where he thinks the biggest opportunities could emerge next. The first chapter of the AI trade made a lot of people rich. The second chapter might have completely different heroes.

The Last 90 Days in AI Compressed an Entire Decade. Here's What Actually Changed

Cody Schneider (Founder of Graph) joined us to break down what's actually happening on the front lines of AI adoption. We're not talking about chatbots and copilots anymore. Autonomous marketing agents. AI-powered employees. Open-source models replacing entire workflows. Businesses are already doing things that would've required entire teams just two years ago. We get into the rise of open-source models, the future of work, and how fast this is actually moving in the real world. The demo era is over. The deployment era is here.

The Chip Company the AI Crowd Isn't Watching Yet

In this episode, Analyst C dives into Infineon, a hidden AI infrastructure play powering the next generation of data centers, energy systems, batteries, and even humanoid robots. As AI pushes power consumption to new extremes, a new bottleneck is emerging: electricity. We break down why power semiconductors could become one of the most critical pieces of AI infrastructure, how the transition to 800V DC data centers could dramatically increase demand, and why Infineon may be positioned to benefit from multiple AI megatrends at once.

The Rotation Is Coming… Here’s Where The Money Goes Next w/ Mel Mattison

In this episode of Milk Road Macro, Mel Mattison joins us to break down the biggest macro trends shaping markets right now. We dive into the Fed’s latest decision under new Chair Kevin Warsh, why Mel believes rate cuts are more likely than most investors expect, and how falling oil prices could create a surprisingly bullish setup for risk assets. We also discuss why gold, silver, miners, and emerging markets may be the biggest opportunities heading into the second half of 2026, while most investors remain focused on AI stocks and the SpaceX IPO.

Companies Are Hoarding Compute Like Gold

The AI arms race is accelerating. And the biggest tech companies in the world are spending billions to secure one thing: compute. In this episode, we break down why Google's massive capital raise could be one of the strongest signals yet that AI demand is blowing past available supply. Corporations aren't treating compute like software anymore. They're treating it like a strategic asset. Like oil. Like land. We get into how NVIDIA's ecosystem keeps expanding, and why the next generation of AI winners might be hiding in networking, semiconductors, power infrastructure, and optical systems.

“This Is How Every Crisis Starts” w/ Jim Bianco

Markets are hitting new all-time highs. AI stocks are leading the rally. Investors are still betting on lower rates. So... what could possibly go wrong? Jim Bianco of Bianco Research joined Milk Road Macro to explain why he thinks the market might be massively underestimating one of the biggest risks in the global economy right now: energy. Jim breaks down why the Strait of Hormuz matters way more than most investors realize, how global oil inventories are getting quietly depleted, and why treating structural problems as temporary liquidity issues has been the common thread behind nearly every major financial crisis.

The AI Model With An Unfair Advantage Over ChatGPT

In today's episode, we break down why the intersection of AI demand and web infrastructure is creating a massive value mismatch, and how decentralized computing protocols are solving real-world data bottlenecks.Yan Liberman, managing partner at Delphi Ventures, explains why the privacy-focused LLM platform Venice remains aggressively undervalued despite its recent 10x run, how the protocol is quietly locking down millions in subscription ARR from power users, and why its unique foundation structure ensures that long-term cash flows flow directly back to token value without relying on artificial buybacks.

Stocks Keep Hitting New Highs… Even As Macro Gets Worse

Capitalize on this bull market by tracking our PRO analysts' portfolios and live trades - just $1 for 7 days: https://milkroad.com/pro/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=youtube_organic_macro&utm_campaign=pod-may28In today's episode, we break down why oil prices are falling despite the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, how the bond market is reacting to a new Federal Reserve chairman, and why tech and semiconductor stocks are pushing to unstoppable all-time highs.Tony Greer explains why he is pivoting away from the natural resources and inflation scare, why the "Sideshow" in tech doesn't care about old-school market rules, and how Nvidia continues to carry the weight of a historic equities rally. We dive deep into how a historic $4 trillion wave of upcoming tech IPOs could vacuum all the liquidity out of the room, and how the Insider administration is weaponizing domestic semiconductor investments like Intel as a matter of absolute national security.

Why NeoClouds Could Become The Biggest AI Winners

The S&P 500 is smashing through insane new all-time highs, Micron officially rocketed into a trillion-dollar company, and the true constraints of the $8 trillion AI infrastructure race are physical bottlenecks hidden from the public eye. We explain why the hyper-cyclical "boom and bust" era for semiconductor stocks is being completely rewritten by massive multi-year contracts, and we map out the explosive rise of the "neocloud market" heading toward a projected $400 billion valuation.

The Two Biggest Macro Forces Driving Markets Over The Next Decade w/ Michael Nicoletos

In today's episode, we break down why the intersection of global geopolitics and artificial intelligence is creating a massive macro realignment, how supply-side inflation is forcing central banks into structural policy mistakes, and why the global "AI race" is fundamentally tied to energy dominance.Michael Nicoletos, founder and CEO of Defy Advisors, explains why a temporary truce in the Strait of Hormuz won't stop the U.S. from leveraging control over global energy supplies to corner China, why traditional interest rate hikes fail to fix supply-side energy shocks, and why the Federal Reserve is ultimately positioned to choose rate cuts over an economic depression.

What The Economy Looks Like When Machines Can Pay Each Other

AI agents are evolving from simple chatbots into autonomous economic actors. And that could completely change the global financial system. We sat down with Guillaume Poncin (CTO of Alchemy) on Milk Road AI to dig into why AI agents are going to need their own financial infrastructure. Here's the thing: traditional banking rails aren't built for machines. They're built for humans with IDs, signatures, and bank accounts that take 3 days to settle. Agents need something different. Faster. Programmable. Always on.

AI’s Next Trillion-Dollar Opportunity Is Hiding In Plain Sight

Capitalize on this bull market by tracking our PRO analysts' portfolios and live trades - just $1 for 7 days: https://milkroad.com/pro/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=youtube_organic_ai&utm_campaign=pod-may21NVIDIA just posted another monster earnings report. But this episode makes the case that the biggest AI opportunity might no longer be Nvidia itself. We dig deep into the $8 trillion AI CapEx thesis and why the next phase of the AI boom could happen completely outside of chips and software. The team breaks down why the real bottlenecks in AI are shifting toward power infrastructure, energy grids, cooling systems, optical networking, and data center deployment.

Why 2026 Could End In A Massive Blow-Off Top w/ Andreas Steno Larsen

Andreas Steno Larsen joined us on Milk Road Macro to break down why the bond market might have entered a structural bear market. Yet at the same time, liquidity is still flooding into risk assets. And AI stocks and semiconductors keep ripping higher despite rising yields, inflation fears, and geopolitical chaos. How does that math work? That's what we get into. And the answer changes how you should think about pretty much every asset class right now. Two opposite things can be true at the same time. That's where the opportunity is hiding.

Why Geopolitical Chaos Is Bullish For the US w/ Eric Wallerstein

We sat down with macro strategist Eric Wallerstein on Milk Road Macro to break down why geopolitical chaos might actually be fueling the next leg higher for U.S. markets. Counterintuitive? Yes. But hear him out. Most investors are obsessing over recession fears, inflation, and Fed policy. Eric thinks the real story is way bigger. The world is fragmenting. Europe is weakening. China is playing defense. And America just keeps quietly consolidating economic power. When the world breaks, capital flows somewhere. And right now, "somewhere" looks a lot like the U.S.

The Biggest Shift In Finance Since The Internet w/ Stephen Mackintosh

In today’s episode, we sat down with Stephen Mackintosh on Milk Road AI. His take: AI agents could be the biggest shift in finance since the internet itself. From autonomous trading agents to AI-powered investing, programmable money, crypto infrastructure, and the future of agentic commerce - this conversation goes deep on how AI is transforming markets, Wall Street, and the global economy way faster than most people realize. The internet rewired commerce. AI agents are about to rewire money itself.

Matthew Piepenburg: “This Is The End Of Dollar Hegemony”

Is the world entering the final stages of U.S. dollar dominance? Matthew Piepenburg joined Milk Road Macro for a deep dive into the global monetary system, the future of the U.S. dollar, rising geopolitical tensions, and why he thinks gold is signaling a major shift in the world economy. We get into the growing de-dollarization trend, the strategic importance of the petrodollar system, and why the Strait of Hormuz has quietly become one of the most important macro flashpoints on the planet. The dollar isn't dying tomorrow. But the foundation is cracking.

Infinite Compute Demand, AI Energy Crisis & Why This Cycle Could Last Years

In today’s episode, we break down why the AI boom might still be in its early innings. And why the next phase of the AI trade could be even bigger than everything we've already seen with Nvidia, OpenAI, and the hyperscalers. We get into the "infinite compute demand" thesis, the rolling bottlenecks showing up across the AI supply chain, and why energy infrastructure might be the next major AI investment theme. Plus: Insider's China trip with top tech CEOs, Nvidia's future in China, the growing AI chip war, and why markets might still be massively underestimating how long this cycle can run. Most people think we're in the late innings. We might still be in the second.

Bitcoin Is Inevitable… And Wall Street Is All-In w/ Ric Edelman

Legendary financial advisor and bestselling author Ric Edelman joined Milk Road Macro to explain why Bitcoin adoption is becoming inevitable. And why Wall Street is finally going all-in on crypto. We break down the massive shift happening across institutional finance. Banks. Wealth managers. Pension funds. Major financial advisors. They're all starting to integrate Bitcoin and digital assets into traditional portfolios. Ric explains why the Clarity Act could be a historic turning point for crypto regulation, why stablecoins are quietly threatening the banking system, and why firms like Morgan Stanley are already getting ready for the next wave of institutional Bitcoin adoption. The suits are coming. Some are already here. And they're not playing around.

Why SpaceX Wants To Put AI Data Centers In Orbit

In this episode of Milk Road AI, Daniel Maguire from ARK Invest explains why the next massive trade in the AI infrastructure build-out is heading beyond Earth’s atmosphere. We explore the emerging concept of orbital data centers and how SpaceX's lead in full rocket reusability is making space-based compute a financial reality. Daniel breaks down the critical energy bottlenecks on Earth and why sun-synchronous orbits offer a nearly infinite, battery-free power source for future AI hyperscalers. We also dive into the convergence of space, defense, and nuclear energy, highlighting specific public and private companies like Rocket Lab and Oklo that are positioned to benefit from this $10 trillion global power shift.

“There Is NO Evidence To Be Bearish Right Now” - Mark Newton

Markets just pulled off one of the sharpest bullish reversals in history. And according to Fundstrat's Mark Newton, there's STILL no reason to be bearish right now. We sat down with Mark Newton (Managing Director and Head of Technical Strategy at Fundstrat Global Advisors) on Milk Road Macro to figure out what's actually going on. Why do stocks keep ripping higher despite war headlines, inflation fears, rising yields, and extreme investor skepticism? Spoiler: the charts don't care about your feelings. Mark breaks down what the data is actually saying. And it's a very different story from what your Twitter feed is screaming about.

“Scarcity Will Become Priceless”: The Next AI Investment Thesis

In this episode, we break down one of the biggest investing theses coming out of the AI boom: why scarcity could become the most valuable asset on the planet as AI creates an era of digital abundance. Translation: when everything becomes infinite, the stuff that's still finite becomes priceless. We dig into the exploding AI CapEx race, why Wall Street is dumping trillions into AI infrastructure, and why investors are bailing on traditional SaaS and rotating into AI infrastructure plays. Names like Nvidia, Micron, Nebius, Palantir, Bloom Energy, and the data center supply chain. The shovels and pickaxes of the AI gold rush. And the smart money is already loading up.

Energy Is About to Become the Most Valuable Asset on Earth w/ Clem Chambers

In today's episode, we sat down with market veteran Clem Chambers on Milk Road Macro to break down the massive structural shifts happening in the global economy right now. Energy. AI. Geopolitics. They're about to reshape... pretty much everything. We dig into the renewed Iran conflict, oil supply risks, and how a single bottleneck in the global energy system could trigger inflation, supply shocks, and serious market volatility. Clem explains why "the market already knows what's happening" before the rest of us do, how capital flows signal real-world events before they hit the headlines, and why assets like Bitcoin tend to spike during geopolitical instability. The market is whispering. Most people aren't listening yet.

Lance Roberts: The Bulls Are Back… But This Setup Looks Dangerous

Lance Roberts came on the show with a take that's gonna make some people uncomfortable. The return of bullish sentiment? Might actually be a warning sign. Not a green light. There's a potential leadership shift coming at the Fed. Oil prices are spiking on geopolitical tensions. Stocks are camped out near all-time highs. The macro setup is getting really fragile. Even if the headlines look great. When everyone's bullish at the same time... that's usually when you should start paying attention.

OpenAI Missed Revenue Targets… Is the AI Bull Market in Trouble?

In this episode, we break down what OpenAI's weaker-than-expected numbers actually mean. Spoiler: it's not what most people think. Compute - not demand - is still the biggest bottleneck in AI. There's plenty of demand. There just aren't enough chips to go around. We also get into whether hyperscalers like Microsoft, Google, Oracle, and Amazon can keep the AI trade alive through their massive CapEx spending. Because right now, those four are basically holding up the entire trade on their backs.

The Biggest Commodity Bull Market of the Decade Is Just Starting w/ Tavi Costa

Tavi Costa, founder of Azuria Capital, breaks down why the current energy crisis in the Middle East and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz are just the beginning of a massive structural shift in global markets. Tavi explains why he believes the U.S. debt trajectory will force aggressive rate cuts and a weakening dollar, creating a "perfect storm" for tangible assets like gold, silver, and copper. We dive deep into his conviction on Latin America as a primary beneficiary of de-globalization, and why agricultural commodities and fertilizers are the next "dominoes" to fall in this inflationary era.

By 2035, Most Grand Challenges Facing Humanity Will Be Solved w/ Dr. Alex Wissner-Gross

Dr. Alex Wissner-Gross is back on Milk Road AI with one of the boldest AI predictions we've heard yet. By 2035, AI could help solve many of the biggest challenges facing humanity. And no, we're not talking about better chatbots or faster coding. We're talking about AI systems that could "bulk solve" entire fields like mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, law, robotics, energy, and even human longevity. Casual. He breaks down the thesis behind Solve Everything, his new book with Peter Diamandis, and explains why we're entering a decade where scientific discovery becomes industrialized. If he's right, the next 10 years of AI progress could compress centuries of human advancement into a single decade. That's not a productivity boost. That's a different timeline.

70 Years of Market Data Says the Strongest Bullish Signal Since 2025 Just Triggered w/ Milton Berg

Most of Wall Street is freaking out about overvalued stocks, recession risks, oil spikes, and geopolitical chaos. Milton Berg says the data is telling a completely different story. The guy has 70+ years of market history and 30,000+ proprietary indicators in his back pocket. And he thinks the strongest bullish signal since 2025 just triggered. Translation: S&P 500 could be heading way higher from here. We break down why he's leveraged long equities, why semiconductors could lead the next leg up, why valuation doesn't matter as much as investors think, and why this rally might just be getting started. The headlines say crash. Milton's data says rocket ship.

NVIDIA CEO’s Biggest AI Warning: AI Tokens Will Decide Which Companies Survive

In today’s episode, we break down one of the biggest shifts happening in business right now: AI tokens are becoming the new labor force. Jensen Huang (NVIDIA CEO) says the future of every company comes down to one thing. How effectively it can consume tokens. That means the winners of the AI race might not be the companies building flashy apps. It's the ones controlling GPUs, data centers, compute, and infrastructure. The plumbing, basically. We dig into Amazon's massive $25B bet on Anthropic, why OpenAI is smarter than people give them credit for, and why the real AI investment plays could be names like Oracle, AMD, cybersecurity, and neo-clouds. SaaS? Might be in trouble.

New All-Time Highs Everywhere… Is This Bull Run Just Getting Started?

Markets are ripping to fresh all-time highs while headlines keep screaming recession, inflation, war, and general chaos. So what's actually going on? We sat down with macro analyst Caleb Franzen on Milk Road Macro to figure it out. Why are stocks pushing higher despite the world supposedly ending? Why do the S&P 500 and Nasdaq keep flashing bullish momentum? And what are the charts actually telling investors right now? We dig into market breadth, inflation risks, Fed policy, labor market strength, M2 liquidity, and why this bull market might have way more gas in the tank than people think. The headlines say one thing. The charts say another. Someone's lying.

Why AI Will Destroy More Jobs Than the Internet Created w/ David Haber

In today’s episode, David Haber from a16z just dropped some uncomfortable truths on the show. AI could destroy more jobs than the internet ever created. Traditional SaaS companies are entering a really dangerous phase. And the next wave of billion-dollar businesses? They might be built by solo founders with a handful of AI agents. No big team. No massive headcount. Just one person and a swarm of bots. The game is changing. Fast.

The Old Market Regime Is Dead: Why Portfolios Are Misaligned in 2026 w/ Bob Elliott

The S&P 500 is ripping. Oil is all over the place. Inflation is creeping back in like that roommate who "just needs one more month." But underneath all that? The macro regime is changing. Bob Elliott (CEO & CIO of Unlimited Funds, former Bridgewater guy) laid it out on the show. That cozy environment from the last decade - low inflation, global stability, cheap money - is fading. Fast. The problem: most portfolios are still built for a world that doesn't exist anymore. We get into why this rally might be a head fake, why earnings expectations could be way off, and why nobody's taking rising geopolitical conflict seriously enough. The rules changed. If your strategy didn't change with them... that's a problem.

The AI Data Center Trade: Why Bloom, Nebius, and Credo are Ripping

In this episode of Milk Road AI, analysts Analyst C and Analyst A break down their latest 50% gainers, specifically highlighting how Bloom Energy (BE) is solving data center power bottlenecks with 90-day off-grid deployments. The team debates the "hot money" into the AI hardware stack, including deep dives into Nebulous and Credo’s role in the massive infrastructure build-out. We also explore Meta’s staggering ad revenue growth, and whether the rise of AI agents will eventually disrupt social media and e-commerce moats.

The Commodity Crisis Playbook: Position Before It’s Too Late (From A 20-Year Veteran) w/ Ole Hansen

In today’s episode, we sit down with Ole Hansen, Head of Commodity Strategy at Saxo Bank, to break down what’s really happening behind the Strait of Hormuz crisis, why energy markets are breaking, and how this shock is spreading into food, metals, and the global economy. Oil prices are volatile, supply chains are tightening, and the impact is already hitting everything from jet fuel to fertilizers to semiconductors. But the real shift? Markets are moving from an inflation shock to a full-blown growth risk, and that changes the entire investment playbook.

Anthropic's Secret Model Is Too Dangerous to Release… It Triggered Emergency Bank Meetings w/ Amit

In today’s episode of the Milk Road AI, we break down one of the most shocking developments in artificial intelligence right now: an unreleased model from Anthropic that’s reportedly so powerful it sparked emergency conversations with major banks. But that’s just the beginning. We get into the rise of AI models like Claude Code, the explosive growth of enterprise AI adoption, and what this means for the future of software, investing, and the global economy. From the so-called “SaaSpocalypse” to the massive revenue growth at OpenAI and Anthropic, this episode connects the dots between AI innovation and market disruption.

This 50-Year Pattern Just Broke: Is Silver About to Go Parabolic? w/ Michael Oliver

In today’s episode of Milk Road Macro, veteran market technician Michael Oliver breaks down why a 50-year range in silver may have finally broken, and why that could send prices toward $300… or even $500. But this isn’t just about silver. We also dive deep into the real risks building under the surface of the global financial system, from a weakening banking sector to a potential bond market crisis that could be bigger than 2008.

Gold Price Prediction: Why the Bull Run Isn't Over w/ Jeffrey Christian

In today’s episode of Milk Road Macro, we sit down with Jeffrey Christian (CPM Group), one of the world’s leading experts on gold, silver, and commodities, to break down what’s really driving the gold market right now. We dive into the macro forces pushing gold to record highs, why both gold and the U.S. dollar are rising at the same time (yes, that’s a big signal), and what it tells us about the state of the global economy. We also unpack the truth about central bank gold buying, ETF flows, and whether the current demand is sustainable.

The Free Internet is Officially Dead. Prepare For The AI Economy w/ Sam Ragsdale

In today’s episode of Milk Road AI, we break down one of the biggest shifts happening right now: the collapse of the “free internet” and the rise of a new AI-driven economy. For decades, the internet has been powered by ads, and your attention was the product. But with the rise of AI agents, that model is starting to break. Instead of clicking links, browsing websites, and seeing ads, users are now going straight to AI… and getting answers instantly. So what happens when no one clicks anymore?

The Gold Crash That Could Trigger a Bigger Rally w/ Jeff Clark

In this episode of Milk Road Macro, we sit down with precious metals expert Jeff Clark to break down what’s really happening behind the recent gold sell-off, and why history suggests this could be one of the biggest opportunities in the market right now. We delve into the macro forces driving gold, including rising interest rates, a strong dollar, geopolitical tensions, and market-wide deleveraging. More importantly, we explore why these pullbacks are normal in bull markets, and why the biggest gains often come right after.

The #1 Skill You Need to Win in the AI Era w/ Analyst D Reidhead

In this episode of the Milk Road AI Show, Analyst D walks us through his journey of building full-scale applications in a single weekend using Claude and Gemini, and why the era of the "CEO Cockpit" is officially here. We break down why the S&P 500 is facing a massive repricing as AI hags the traditional "moats" of software and project management, and why the next separation of wealth will be defined by those who can master context and prompting.

The #1 Real-Time Indicator That Says the Economy Is About to Boom w/ Craig Fuller

In this episode, FreightWaves CEO Craig Fuller breaks down why trucking and freight data may be the most important real-time indicator in macro right now, and why it’s flashing bullish. Despite rising oil prices, geopolitical tension, and recession fears, the data tells a very different story. Freight volumes are rising, trucking capacity is tightening, and industrial demand is quietly accelerating across the U.S.

Jordi Visser: The Biggest Market Shift of Our Lifetime Is Starting

In this episode of Milk Road Macro, macro expert Jordi Visser breaks down why we’re entering one of the most important economic transitions in decades, driven by AI, rising commodity demand, and growing stress in credit markets. Oil prices are climbing. Private credit is starting to crack. At the same time, artificial intelligence is reshaping the global economy faster than anyone expected. So what does this mean for your portfolio?

AI Will Run the Economy… Here’s What to Buy Before It Happens (Full Portfolio Reveal)

What happens when AI doesn’t just assist the economy… but actually runs it? In this episode of Milk Road AI, Analyst D Reidhead reveals his full investment portfolio and breaks down exactly how he’s positioning for a world where AI, crypto, and energy converge. From Tesla’s role in autonomous systems, to Coinbase as the backbone of on-chain finance, to why AI agents will use crypto instead of traditional banking rails, this episode lays out a clear roadmap for what to buy before the next wave hits.

A Massive Sell-Off Is Starting… And Most Investors Don’t See It w/ Steven Van Metre

In today’s episode of Milk Road Macro, we sit down with macro strategist Steve Van Metre to break down what’s really happening beneath the surface of the market… and why this could be the early stages of a much bigger move. From systematic selling and CTA flows to rising oil prices and weakening consumer demand, this episode connects the dots between macroeconomics, market structure, and investor behavior. The result? A potential domino effect that could push stocks lower in the weeks ahead.

Oil Prices Are Rising Fast… Is a Global Recession Next? w/ Peter St Onge

In today’s episode, we sit down with economist Peter St Onge to break down what rising oil prices mean for inflation, the labor market, and the broader macro economy. Historically, major recessions have often followed major oil shocks. But today’s global economy is very different from the 1970s. The U.S. is now one of the world’s largest energy producers, global supply chains have evolved, and central banks have powerful tools to manage economic slowdowns. So the real question investors should be asking is this: How high do oil prices actually need to go before they trigger a recession?

The Global Commodity War Has Started... Gold’s Biggest Bull Market in 50 Years w/ Nicky Shiels

Oil just spiked above $100. Gold is pushing toward new all-time highs. And geopolitical tensions are reshaping global markets. In this episode of Milk Road Macro, we sit down with Nicky Shiels, Head of Research and Metals Strategy at MKS PAMP, to break down the macro forces driving the surge in commodities and what it means for investors. Nicky explains why the world may be entering a global commodity war, where countries are scrambling to secure energy, metals, and critical resources. As supply chains fragment and geopolitical tensions rise, commodities like gold, oil, and precious metals are becoming strategic assets again.

AI vs Humans: What Jobs Survive the Next 10 Years?

In this episode, we break down the accelerating AI revolution with Rawsen from Delphi Intelligence. From the rise of autonomous AI agents to the global race between the United States and China, we explore what the future of artificial intelligence could mean for workers, startups, and entire industries. Will AI replace most white-collar jobs? Could “digital workers” handle the majority of knowledge work by 2027? And if intelligence becomes cheap and abundant, what skills will actually remain valuable?

“Heads I Win, Tails You Lose”: Why Bitcoin Wins No Matter What Happens Next w/ David Brickell

In this episode of Milk Road Macro, we break down how wars, government debt, and central bank policy shape global markets, and why Bitcoin may be positioned to benefit regardless of how the macro environment evolves. David Brickell explains why geopolitical conflicts often lead to more debt issuance, more liquidity injections, and ultimately higher asset prices. We also dive into the growing role of Bitcoin in the global financial system, how institutional adoption is accelerating, and why the current market environment could create a “heads I win, tails you lose” scenario for BTC.

The Deflationary Singularity: Why Everything is Going to ZERO w/ Salim Ismail

In this episode of Milk Road AI, Salim Ismail breaks down a bold thesis that could redefine markets, crypto, and the global economy: we are entering the largest deflationary wave in modern history. He explains why AI, exponential energy growth, and blockchain infrastructure are driving the marginal cost of everything toward zero, from software and healthcare to education, transportation, and financial services. If AI continues compounding at its current pace, entire industries built on scarcity could collapse faster than investors expect.

Is This the Start of a New Commodity Supercycle? w/ Clem Chambers

Are we witnessing the beginning of a new commodity supercycle? In today’s episode of Milk Road Macro, Clem Chambers breaks down why gold, silver, platinum, palladium, and copper are moving, and what it signals for the global economy. Gold has been surging, but according to Clem, this isn’t just about inflation or interest rates. It’s about geopolitics. Central banks are buying gold aggressively as global tensions rise, and history shows gold often acts as the “currency of war.” If conflict risk remains elevated, the bid under precious metals may not disappear anytime soon.

Markets Are Sending a Message... And Most Investors Are Missing It w/ Analyst E

In this episode ofMilk Road Macro, Analyst E breaks down why recent macro data suggests we’re not at the end of the cycle, but potentially entering a mid-cycle re-acceleration that most investors are completely overlooking. We dive into what expanding market breadth really means, why the Russell 2000 and small-cap stocks matter more than the Magnificent 7 right now, and how key indicators like the ISM Manufacturing PMI and new orders are reshaping the macro outlook. While sentiment remains deeply negative, the underlying data points to a healthier economy, a broader bull market, and conditions that historically support risk assets.

The Government Is Engineering a Business Cycle Surge Into 2026 w/ Andreas Steno Larsen

In this episode of Milk Road Macro, Andreas Steno Larsen, explains why the macro playbook that worked for the last 15 years is broken, and why markets haven’t fully priced in the new regime we’re entering. We discuss how AI is pressuring the software-as-a-service economy, why private credit may be sitting on hidden risk, and how this is triggering a major rotation from software into hardware, energy, metals, and infrastructure. Andreas also breaks down why the recent ISM surge is not seasonal noise, but the result of a powerful tax rule that is forcing U.S. companies to ramp CapEx this year by design.

The Economic Singularity Will Make Today’s Economy Unrecognizable w/ Dr. Alexander Wissner-Gross

In this episode of Milk Road AI, Dr. Alexander Wissner-Gross explains why the rapid collapse in the cost of AI isn’t just improving software; it’s triggering a chain reaction that could collapse the cost structure of the entire economy. This conversation explores the idea of an Economic Singularity, where intelligence becomes radically cheaper, robotics turns that intelligence into near-zero cost labor, and the world we recognize today begins to change faster than most people realize. We discuss why AGI may have effectively arrived with GPT-3 in 2020, how recursive self-improvement is already happening inside AI labs, and why regulation, not technology, is now the biggest bottleneck to progress. Dr. Wissner-Gross also explains how society may experiment with new models like UBI, universal basic services, and universal basic equity as traditional work starts to lose its central role in the economy.

The Market Is Risk-On… But Growth Isn’t (Yet) w/ Market Radar

“You Will Own Nothing” Wasn’t a Warning… It Was the Plan w/ Carol Roth

In this episode of Milk Road Macro, we sit down with Carol Roth to break down the uncomfortable reality behind today’s global economic system and why the loss of ownership isn’t accidental.

What’s framed as convenience or progress is, in reality, a structural shift driven by policy choices, not market forces.

Google and Anthropic Are Pulling Away From Everyone Else w/ Ejaaz

In this episode of Milk Road AI, we break down why Google’s unmatched advantages in data, distribution, infrastructure, and full-stack integration are creating a lead that’s becoming structurally difficult to challenge.
