Trade Ideas
Zcash is a high-conviction long.
Zcash is a unique crypto asset with strong technical setup, deeply oversold, and has potential for significant upside. He is heavily invested and has large unrealized gains.
Micron is the next Nvidia.
Micron is positioned to be the next Nvidia as AI memory demand continues to surge. He endorses the idea of going all-in on Micron, calling it not too late.
Nvidia ATH break is not too late.
Nvidia breaking to new all-time highs is a bullish sign for the market. He considers it a fun trade that is probably not too late to enter.
IBKR is the only interesting exchange stock.
Among exchange stocks, Interactive Brokers (IBKR) is the only one that stands out as interesting, implying it is a better investment than peers like Coinbase or Robinhood.
Bitcoin will trade a million dollars.
Bitcoin is the greatest asset ever created and will eventually trade at $1 million per coin. He holds a significant long-term position despite reducing exposure for trading flexibility.
