Do you think the financial media is as dishonest as the MSM?

You watch CNBC….nothing but bulls
You turn into podcasts like The Compound….nothing but bulls
Dumb money chasing whatever Tom Lee, Dan Ives, or WSB peddle.
Just once I’d love for an actual analyst to come on CNBC and have the balls to say sell. And when an asked why? They simply show a 130 year chart of Schiller PE or Buffet Indicator and where 2026 sits in relation to the last 130 years. Then tell the truth about how depreciating assets over a 5 year period helps hide in the short term actual earnings.
I dunno. Are Bears bad for TV ratings? We know no analyst for an investment firm will ever say “sell the market” bc that’s counter intuitive to their goal of investors giving money to their firm to invest. And my personal favorite is when these idiots adjust their price targets after a move happen. Look at FUTU. $300 price target by MS. It ranks to $87. They change the target to $87. Why werent you saying to sell it before that move?

We are in one of the greatest bull markets in history. When I watch, they readily admit we are due for a pull back but most don’t see that happening for another 2 years. I dont think anyone that’s a long term investors really cares if it happens tomorrow or in 2028

The Steve Eisman podcast that's new is pretty good. He will change his opinion as the data changes and has really good guess on every week who are in the tech or finance industry.

On CNBC the biggest topic for months has been is AI a bubble.
More bullish now, but in a bear market they are all bears. It’s less about analysis and more about the talking heads trying not to sound stupid.

No one knows what the market is going to do. If they did they’d keep that opinion to themselves and profit, true arbitrage.
I prefer Bloomberg to CNBC as it’s not as dramatic.
AI bubble, possibly. Just like every new technology or product there are going to be winners and companies that don’t make. When automobiles first came out there were hundreds of companies.
As someone who has started using AI in my job and personal life and I’m just scratching the surface of what it can do. I’m a believer that it’s a game changer more than I’ve ever seen in my 45+ years of life.

We could only wish the MSM was anywhere as competent as financial media.

People have been saying that for years.
And when these people were gifted an opportunity to brag after covid, they stayed on the sidelines for too long and missed one of the biggest bull markets ever.

I think they’re worse. You only need to look at the inverse Cramer ETF to realize at least some are actively looking to scam their audience.
Like elsewhere, all the quality work is being done by small channels online. By the time something makes it to fin media it’s either too late or bastardized beyond recognition.

Cramer is the worst. I was going to buy MWH last week but then he recommended it and it proceeded to drop like 8% from the time he mentioned it. I think he’s so toxic that people want to short anything he mentions.
I just think you’ll never get an honest opinion on the market by having investment bank analysts who run buy only funds as the talking heads. All they care about is money flows into their fund. So they will never say sell.
The closest non-bias guys are the hedge funds. But even them, other than Burry, are afraid to say sell. And rarely are they interviewed.

Not dishonest so much as bunch of hot takes.
I once saw MarketWatch have two headlines, two lines apart, saying opposite things.

Yes.
It's marketing.

Some is quite angry about not have bought back since the Great Tariff Crash of 2025.

If there is one thing the financial news media is good for its predicting the past

You make as much as you can during bull markets and even a 50% drawdown during a crash is tolerable.

A pretty useless observation when you realize most people don't have boats

We’ve had multiple fantastic buy points in the past 14 months, and bears are still angry and horny for a big drop bc they never actually buy a bottom. No bottom will ever be deep enough for most bears, as they’ll talk themselves out of buying when a bottom comes
