Speaker 1 (00:04):
Well, going back to Investing in Trading Live sponsored by
Trading Academy. As always, I am your host, Josh Lilquist
and your navigator on this boat of a roller coaster,
we'll call it. Of these markets, we're talking about other
stocks where we're talking about Johnson Johnson in the last segment,
we'll get into some insight on that, some great volatility,
and the boat is just a rocking with that one.
(00:25):
We're going to get into other stocks like Nvidia, AMD,
some analysis on that, Netflix, Testla, and Oscar Health. As

(01:09):
ten will get you one of those seats today. So
out on this next segment here, we have a few
more stocks that we want to get into and discuss
a little bit because the volatility is phenomenal. Obviously, Netflix
always shows volatility that's up one percent, but really faces
that downgrade due to valuation concerns ahead of that July
(01:29):
seventeenth earnings that they had Tesla investors await that Q
two result and ROBOTAXI up to It's amazing how you
have these robotaxis. I was just talking with somebody here
yesterday and they were concerned. They were a truck driver,
very concerned about AI and robots taking their job.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
They should be. Yeah, and that's not a lot of
that's just one area. There's a whole bunch of people
out there that are going to be surprised at what
the future looks like as far as their their career
is concerned.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Yeah, and he said that's already started. He said, there's
already trucks that are self we call autonomous, so which
is crazy out there, but we're gonna see more of that. Obviously,
Oscar Health they had mixed sentiment after downgrades, but viewed
as an that's really undervalued, and that's by some people.
Who's who's some people, that's that's quote unquote they But
(02:27):
here's the story of the week, the month, and quite
frankly of the year. Tech leads. Tech is driving pretty
much everything right now, driven by AI and chip stocks
unless that that's those in videos and the new one
out there of core Wave and a m D. So
those are the drivers of a lot of these market gains.
(02:47):
I feel so al I want you to just give
some insights here on a couple of stocks that we
talked about, and I'm going to talk more about why
it's important to gain financial literacy on these. So you've
talked about Johnson and Johnson in the past, right, So
Johnson and Johnson said about one hundred and sixty five
(03:07):
bucks per share on Wednesday. What happened It was at
one fifty seven, jumps right up to one sixty five
and that was before lunchtime, before noon. Now a lot
of investors think, oh, Johnson and Johnson is a big
move in the market. We got to get in now, right,
But the moves already happened. How do you help people
(03:28):
get away from those emotions of getting in after the
market moves, and then what do we do here at
the academy to change that thought process?
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Yeah, well, what you just talked about with Jane Jay,
a lot of people might be thinking more the move's
already taken place, and that may be correct. The big
move might have taken place, and there might be a pullback,
but the big move might have been just the beginning
part of another big move. Every company at one point
in time was at a record high and people thought
(03:57):
it couldn't go any higher, and then it doubled a
trip are quadrupled after that. If you look at in
Vidio for example, and video didn't come out over one
hundred dollars a share, you know it started and I
don't know actually what the price was when it came out,
but it's had probably one hundred, two hundred, three hundred
new highs over the course of the years.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
It seems like every couple of months. I mean, we're
not at a high right now, but just was back
in January.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Yeah, So what you want to do, as much as possible,
just take the guessing out of what you're doing when
you're investing in trading a lot of people if they
don't invest in J and J because they think they
missed the move, might miss the next move. And that's
because they've invested based on their opinion.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
So what does Tradeing Academy do differently to help people
get out of that retail trader mindset.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Well, whether you agree with them or not, you have
to learn how to trade with the Wall Street banks.
Those are the big firms like Goldman, Sacks, JP, Morgan,
because their activity actually creates the reality in the market.
That's what causes things to go up and to go down,
and to be honest with you, Josh, market and asset
moves can be manufactured by these companies to create a
(05:11):
desired result. So the big money those companies I just
mentioned can profit hedge funds. Same thing. So you have
to be able to as much as possible try to
figure out what they're doing and be part of what
they're doing, which means you have to identify in a
way what they're going to be doing in the future.
Those companies, when they invest in something, they take a
(05:32):
position because they're pretty sure it's going to be profitable
for them. So if that is the case and they
are profitable, a lot of these companies never have a loss,
and there are hedge funds that have never in the
history of their company have a loss, even in big
down losing years. So it's really important to be able
to understand that those companies, the hedge funds, the big
(05:54):
Wall Street banks have what's called cloud, which is money.
They have enough money to move the price of things.
So to be successful, you have to have an edge,
something that puts the probabilities in your favor, and more
I think than any other thing out there, it's the
movement of money. It's the movement of the price of
(06:15):
these assets caused by institutions that's going to give you
that edge. But you have to be able to find
what they're doing. Our core strategy, which is what our
students use no matter what they're training, what the asset is,
what the timeframe is, is designed to exactly do that.
It's just built based on orderflow, on price movement.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
And that's interesting because if you look at the price
chart of Johnson and Johnson, it has actually, you know,
fortunately unfortunately whatever you want to call it, at the
same price it was back in January of twenty twenty one.
So Johnson and Johnson hasn't really moved, but it's in
the headlines. You know that headline came from I believe
(06:56):
it was CNBC dot com, right, So these companies are
it's just news, is what it is. You got news
companies like finance dot or Yahoo, Finance, Investorpedia, Routers, So
there's different outlets that is giving information, right, but information
without application. It's one hundred percent only entertainment. And that's
(07:16):
why we have these free investing and trading workshops right
here at the Academy, so that way you can gain
some insight on what's actually happening based off price charts
and making smart investing decisions, but understanding where the banks
and institutions are moving these markets from and where could
they potentially go. And that's how you do that is
those have those areas of interest following them, not trading
(07:40):
and investing against them. And we illustrate that in these
free investing and trading workshops that we do locally right
here at the Academy. If you want to come into
one of these investing in trading workshops, simply just text
the word investing to the number two ten two ten.
That'll be for two seats for a free investing in
Trading Workshop. That's one for you and one for a friend.
(08:01):
Text investing to the number two ten two ten, or
goals to straight to Trading Academy dot com and you
can pick your own seat and your own date. There
Another stock that I want you just to illustrate a
little talk a little bit about is core Wave or
core Weave. I guess you would call it CRWV. I
don't even know what they do, but their AI data
(08:21):
is what they are. I'm I'm not exactly sure what
they do, but they had that six billion dollar AI
data center investment announced in Pennsylvania recently and the stock
jumped seven percent. Well, so it's in the news right now,
and that's based off data that you can get anywhere
right for Yahoo finance whatever. The interesting piece of that
(08:43):
l is so there, it's in the news. It's in
the headlines. It says, oh, it's up seven percent. And
you know what happens with parabolic moves a lot. It's
a parabolic move is a super fast moved to the upside.
And what typically happens after that, and this is not
saying that this is going to happen, is you see
(09:03):
a big drop after that as well. So now we
have this news that core weave is up seven percent. Well,
if you look at a price chart, l it's already
up three hundred percent and that is only since April,
so the move potentially has already happened. But now it's
(09:23):
in the news right because of a small seven percent move. Now,
why is it so important to invest in trade with
an actual plan? So now you're not just picking and
grabbing things from the news. You actually have a plan
and the right stocks to choose from as well.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Yeah, without a plan, you're you're basically just guessing, you know,
And I think I mentioned this last week. If you're
just guessing, you might as well just take your money
and go to a casino, have a little bit of fun. Know,
you're going to leave without your money, but at least
you had some fun entertainment. You know. Losing it in
the in the market is not fun. So one of
your goals should be not losing. And in fact, here's
(10:04):
what the successful people do. They don't concentrate on how
much they're going to make. They concentrate on not losing.
And that's the one thing you have to be able
to manage. And then also understand that if you have
to identify what you are. Are you an investor or
are you a trader? And what's the difference is simply
just time. A trader is looking for an entry in
(10:26):
an exit of a position in a short period of time, and.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
That short period could be a day, a week, a
couple of weeks, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
It's all specific to you relative. That's why it's so
important to have a plan that's specific to you. So
a trader is more short term investor. You're just looking
at putting somebodey into something and then hoping maybe in
ten or twenty or thirty years you have a profit.
But just remember as traders, and that's what to be
honest with you, the marcus we see now are great
(10:54):
for traders, not for investors. And I think most of
the pros out there will tell you this is this
is the time to be a trader. So as a trader,
you have to understand that you're not making money on
the growth of a company. You're making money in the
movement of the stock price, regardless of whether it's going
up down or the stagnate nature of the stock or
(11:15):
the asset. In other words, whether it's going side because
there's three directions of market can go, So we're just
looking for short term price movement. The way you're going
to use the information out there is going to be
different than if you're looking at investing long term. And
one of the problems now with the long term investing
with that buy and hold strategy, it's really hard to
(11:35):
predict what is going to happen in the economy and
the world in two years, or five years or ten years.
And that's kind of what you have to do. If
you're going to put together a portfolio of stocks and
hold on to it for ten or twenty or thirty years,
you're making some guesses as to what's going to happen
over that timeframe. It's a lot easier to be accurate
(11:55):
looking at things short term because, as I mentioned, a
lot of these news headlines that hit and the comments
that come out and the tweets that come out are
making short term moves that we can use to our advantage.
You mentioned something earlier. You mentioned it's the application. It's
not just the information, it's the application of the information.
(12:16):
What that boils down to is skills. You have to
have the skills to be able to know how to
use the information, how to use the knowledge. You have
to either be active or maybe not be active.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Yeah, and that's one of the important things I believe
that Trading Academy does here right at the Academy here
in Bloomington, has helped guide people through this plan because
it's so easy for an individual to go online and
gain some knowledge, right and gain some fun facts or
(12:48):
gather information. But if you don't know how to utilize
that information properly, you're just entertaining yourself. That's all you're doing.
So that's why Trading Academy has been the world leader
and investor and trader education for actually on their twenty
ninth year doing that, and we've had so many people
coming into these investing and trading workshops and just really saying,
(13:11):
I really it opened my eyes on what Trading Academy
actually is and does and why it differentiates in helping
people gain that power back and that control back to
what they want to accomplish out of the market. And
these investing and trading workshops, they're only two hours long
to get started because it's a little bit of information.
(13:33):
We're throwing some information, some fun facts over here. On
the radio waves and on the podcast and also live
on the Josh Lilquist YouTube stream. But that's how you
get started is gain a little bit information. But now
it's time to gain that control and learn what you
need to do to apply that information into useful information
(13:54):
for what you need to do. So we have these
free investing and trading workshops i'd like to invite you to.
