In Episode 5 (recorded May 19, 2024), the Stock Jocks give their customary bull/bear treatment to recent IPO and data security specialist Rubrik ($RBRK). Bruce takes his turn as moderator as Gordon makes the case that the stock is just too cheap on the likely 30%+ growth, even accounting for a cash burn not entirely unlike Gordon’s on a number of wistfully remembered nights in Miami.

In Episode 4 (recorded 4/21/2024), we address a topic that is near and dear to Gordon’s heart: the master of yoga pants, Lululemon Athletica ($LULU).

In our inaugural “Just the Tips” podcast (recorded 2/25/2024), three Wall Street and tech industry veterans (George, Gordon, and Bruce – “stage names” to protect the “innocent”) as they share their candid (and irreverent) takes on tech stocks. Periodically (as often as we can -- we have day jobs!) we will make the bear and bull case for a tech stock. Our first “victim” is Supermicro ($SMCI – “Super Duper Micro!”)  In this episode, we address: The emotional rewards of losing money (generating...
