[REPLAY] Gavin McCracken: A Journey To 2,000x Returns
This was easily my favorite podcast of the year. Granted, we're only in April. So it's exciting, but a high bar for future guests. Gavin is a one-of-one thinker and investor. He generated a 2,000x return in his account from buying basically two stocks: Valeura Energy (VLE) and Andean Precious Metals (APM). You will love his story on how he found, bought, and held along the way to 2,000x performance. We also talked about process, due diligence, finding an edge, investing psychology, and AI (you'll be surprised on his AI take). I know this is a 2HR conversation, but it is worth every second because Gavin is an independent thinker and worth your time. NOTHING YOU HEAR IS INVESTMENT ADVICE. PURELY ENTERTAINMENT/EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES. YOU ARE AN IDIOT IF YOU TAKE ANY OF THIS AS ADVICE.

Seedy19: A 35x Return From Biotech Investing
I hope you guys enjoy my podcast with @Seedy19 (from X). Seedy is a full-time biotech investor. He generated a 35x on his entire portfolio last year. Not just one stock, his entire portfolio. The crazy part? He did it buying mostly common stocks. Biotech stocks, of course. But common stocks nonetheless! We spend an hour diving into Seedy's process, how he identifies new ideas, researches positions, weighs probabilities, and separates the real companies from the shams. I loved recording this episode. PLEASE NOTE NONE OF THIS IS INVESTMENT ADVICE. IT IS PURELY EDUCATIONAL/ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY. DO NOT TRADE ANY OF THESE SECURITIES WITHOUT CONSULTING A LICENSED PROFESSIONAL. YOU ARE AN IDIOT FOR TRYING TO TRADE BIOTECH.
