Titus argues that gaming regulation should remain "state by state" and that operators must "follow the rules of the states where they're already established." She dismisses the CFTC's ability to regulate gaming. By fighting to keep regulation at the state level and attacking "prediction markets," Titus is effectively defending the regulatory moat of incumbent, licensed sportsbooks. High barriers to entry (state licensing) favor established players like DraftKings over new, agile prediction market competitors. Long regulated sportsbooks as political figures move to crush their lower-cost, unregulated competition. Prediction markets gain legal status as "event contracts" under the CFTC, bypassing state gaming commissions. |

DraftKings reported earnings and showed prediction markets (like Polymarket) currently have only 1% wallet share, but the stock got "smoked" (down ~60% drawdown). While currently small, prediction markets are in a "super cycle" (according to Robinhood's CEO) and could cannibalize sports betting wallet share over time because they offer better odds/utility than traditional sportsbooks. Cautionary stance as the stock price reacts negatively despite revenue growth, potentially signaling fear of this new competitive threat. Regulatory crackdowns on prediction markets could send users back to traditional sportsbooks. |

"The terminally online screen generation inherently just wants to gamble... Everyone's dopamine receptors are fried... If they can't get the edge in stock market, they'll go to crypto. If they can't get the edge in crypto, they'll go to sports betting." The demand for speculation is inelastic and growing generationally. "Shorting degeneracy" is a losing bet. Therefore, the platforms that facilitate this risk-taking (Robinhood, Coinbase, Sports Betting apps) will see perpetual volume growth regardless of asset quality. LONG the "Casinos" of the digital economy. Regulatory crackdowns on retail speculation or gambling addiction measures. |

DraftKings fell 13.5% after missing sales and profit forecasts. While the company cites "prediction markets" as an opportunity, the analyst notes this actually increases competition from platforms like Robinhood. Regulatory overhangs specific to sports betting apps remain a burden that new entrants might avoid. SHORT due to missed execution and intensifying competitive landscape. Successful expansion into new betting verticals. |

DraftKings (DKNG) issued a weak outlook; Flutter fell ~8% in sympathy. The sector is facing disruption from "prediction markets" and potentially changing consumer habits. The market is swiftly repricing growth expectations downwards. SHORT. Momentum has broken, and regulatory/competitive headwinds are intensifying. M&A activity in the sector could squeeze shorts. |

DraftKings stock plunged on 2026 guidance; handle decelerated 4% in January. The company was "caught flat footed" by prediction markets and must now spend heavily to catch up. While they are expected to be long-term winners (duopoly with FanDuel), the short-term involves heavy investment and decelerating growth metrics. WATCH/AVOID in the short term until the spending impact is clarified at the March investor day. Prediction markets permanently erode market share. |

Jason Robins
CEO, DraftKings
|
DraftKings stock is down ~40% over the last six months. Investors sold off after the CFTC withdrew a proposed rule that would have banned sports prediction markets, fearing increased competition. The CEO argues the market has this backward. The CFTC moving toward "clear guidelines" rather than a ban is actually positive for DraftKings. As a fully legal, regulated entity, DraftKings cannot operate in "opaque" gray markets. Clear regulations allow them to deploy their resources, launch their own prediction products (which they have already started), and "win in this space." Robins explicitly states they have launched a predictions app and intend to compete directly. The public markets may continue to view prediction markets as a threat rather than an opportunity for some time; regulatory guidelines may take time to finalize. |

The speaker reviewed these charts individually and described them as "disgusting," "terrible," "scary," or "rolling over." He specifically notes Robinhood (HOOD) is down 43% since October highs and looks "fried." The macro backdrop is one of capital exhaustion ("no money left to buy assets") and institutional fear (Epstein files). If the SPY rolls over as the speaker fears, these high-beta, over-owned tech and consumer names have no support and are technically broken. Short / Avoid. These are the victims of the capital rotation into commodities. Federal intervention (Trump administration) forcing markets up to preserve optics. |
