E35: Generating Alpha, Crypto Crash, is Corporate Real Estate Next?

9 July 2024

Krzysztof's back from Europe, but he brought COVID with him -- is his pink Care Bears hat an essential part of the recuperative process?

Luke commends Krzysztof's bet against corporate real estate and regional banks (puts on $KRE!), and shares some data that supports the doom thesis.

Is thorough research essential in identifying investment opportunities, or is it sufficient to take deep abdominal breaths and visualise winning? (Hint - if you have a fool as a counterparty, you're on the right side of the trade)

We also make a new bet: $EOSE vs $AXON in two years’ time. Krzysztof backs EOS for its high potential gains, while Luke supports Axon's steady growth and innovations in making the world a safer place. We need *your help* in deciding the stakes! Please send us your suggestions on X or leave a comment on YouTube!

To close the episode, Krzysztof dives into the state of Bitcoin and crypto, advocating a thoughtful approach to investing in this volatile market and the need to define crypto accurately, avoiding lumping legitimate projects with casino gambling. How should investors without $BTC start their journey today?
