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.
