Investor's Edge with Gary Coltbaum. Straight talk about you and your money. Now from the BizTalk
Studios, here is Gary Cultbaum. And welcome once again to Investors Edge. I'm Gary Coltbaum, your host. A
thanks of being with us today. Glad you here, ladies and gentlemen, happy that you are listening.
It's, yeah, it's Tuesday. It's November 19, 2024. Hope you having a good day. In case you don't know
this week. We're in Maui. My son Eric had a week off and asked to have a father's son trip.
He wanted to go where the beaches are. I really can't go to the Bahamas or south of Florida because
that means 9.30 to 4 o'clock, we work. I don't leave the playing field. But in Maui, the market
opens at 4.30, closes at 11. And due to the fact, I do not get off of Florida time. I am up without
any alarm at 3.30. I am here. I have my four screens in front of me. I woke up this morning to
possible nuclear war. The Dow was down 500. The NASDAQ was down 180. And the market doesn't
give a crap. How's that? Anyway, the story is just so you know that Biden gave, I don't understand
how this actually works, but Biden gave permission to Ukraine to use long missiles and they
went into Russia. Russia came out and said, we are changing our rules on nuclear and we are
relaxing the restrictions. So overnight, Europe was getting squashed. I turn on futures. It's
500 and something down 200 NASDAQ. And in spite of last Friday squashing in the NASDAQ, the NASDAQ that opened up down near 200,
strong today.
And the best way to describe it,
the good is getting gooder.
I'll explain in a minute.
But first,
if you don't get this radio show in your city,
we'll post it at garyk.com.
We'll also post it on all the podcast apps.
That's for one.
And if you don't follow us on Twitter,
you should because we do post it on Twitter,
which is now X.
And if you like to email me,
just be nice.
You know, I must tell you, everybody's been pretty darn nice.
I'm getting emails from people that completely disagree with me on certain policy and everybody's being nice.
And of course, the reason is because we're nice back.
And as we said to you, we all breathe the same air.
We're always amazed when people go nuts.
And unfortunately, you know where the nuts come from?
The people you watch.
as I mentioned yesterday
morning Joe and Mika
who have been calling Trump
Hitler using the word
Hitler
the worst things you could pretty much say about
somebody is called him Hitler don't you think
there's not much lower than that
don't you think
and they called them Hitler day in and day out
oh they went and visited Trump
because they wanted to air their grievances out
and Trump actually met with them
which is absolutely amazing
I would have told him to take a flying late
So they go back on TV and they say, well, we did this, we did that.
And of course, they got ripped by certain side for doing it.
And other people said, good for you.
But my problem with the whole thing is they don't matter.
They're a low-rated TV show that just got their business cut in half because people are sick of them.
The whole network, MSNBC, if you just turn it on for a little bit.
They call you racist.
They call you misogynist.
they call you every name in the book.
And they even, they had out Sharpton called Black men, misogynist, Hispanics, racist.
Oh, really?
So just remember who these people are.
They're insane.
And I mean that.
They're insane.
They drink their own bath water and their devices as all hell.
Well, we're telling you there's racism in this country,
but most people are not.
That's all.
Case closed.
Most people just go to work,
trying to do better for themselves and their families,
but these people that have the privilege
to be on TV and have an audience,
now you're racist, you're homophobic,
you're this or that,
and they never met you.
Think about that.
They never met you.
They just put swathes of people,
they put them into different groups,
and of course Trump's Hitler.
Last I looked,
And as you know, I've never been a Trump fan.
I don't think he's killed 12 million people.
Six million Jews.
Last I looked.
But they called him Hitler.
And why do we bring this up?
Because they don't shut up.
It does affect the markets.
It does affect the economy to a certain extent.
So we have to bring it up.
We're past the election.
We don't like some of the things Trump has done already with selections.
We think a couple of them are not going to get past.
This Gates is not going to get past.
We hate the fact that the right now is cool with a guy that looks like in an ethics complaint, possibly maybe could be statutory rape.
But let's make him attorney general.
How many adults are there in this country?
150 million 160?
I don't know.
Somewhere in there.
Let's make this guy attorney general?
What?
By the way, I believe the Attorney General is the number one lawyer in the country.
Catching my drift?
So again, as you can see, we don't mess around.
We have no bias.
We just want good.
And I must tell you, if Biden did good things, I would have complimented him.
But he was nothing but a fraud, somebody who marketed himself as a centrist, a moderate, his whole life.
And he was left of Bernie Sanders.
And she is left of Biden.
And what did she do?
They made up her whole life over again for three months into an election.
They just made her up.
They went from A to Z in her proposals.
And part of that, why she lost, everybody knew she was full of crap.
Anyway, but we're now here, and we hope Trump does well.
We love the fact they're going to do this government efficiency thing.
We'll see how that plays out.
I must tell you I've been trying to hook up with Elon and Vivek.
You know, I'm calling them by their first name.
And I have heard not back because I'm a nobody.
But I am the preeminent person who has been fighting debt and deficits and waste in government.
And I guess they just don't know it.
And I guess I can blame myself for not putting myself out there more.
But I'm going to keep trying because I know where the skeletons are buried.
I know where they have scammed us and used us as a gargamous.
I know where the numbers are. I know what they have done throughout the years to the penny,
but they haven't gotten back to me. We'll try. And let me be clear, if they ever can get this
government to be efficient, to be effective, there would be no deficits. I promise you that.
if they really dig deep, you're going to be sick to your stomach what they have done and where the money is gone.
It will be a who's who of donors and friends.
They've turned $100 billion into a footnote.
So when somebody gets a grant for $20 million to investigate monkeys in the Amazon and that person took $2 million salary and never has to pay it back,
You're going to find out that happened.
By the way, that's made up what I just said, but what's happened is not made up.
People have become wealthy beyond their means without even working because of this administration and the doling out of money.
The $150 billion was given out to people for their loans that they took.
They broke contract law.
And I think there's something to it where, oh, five,
firemen and policemen, you want to do something with their student loans.
Okay, okay, I get that.
But to pick and choose and to not say who's paying for it, you know, they had a yucks on TV.
I forgot who it was.
Oh, his economic advisor said that the student loan relief was not paid by the taxpayer.
Of course it is.
Every dime government spends is from the taxpayer.
So imagine if we can get this thing right and really treat it right.
You know, corporate America can't lie.
They can't cheat.
You go to jail.
Government lies and cheats.
And nothing happens to them.
So I'm hoping they do the right thing.
I hope they're on top of this because, man, oh man, I can promise you they can ring out trillions.
By the way, the Pentagon has failed their seventh audit.
They can't figure out where like a trillion bucks worth of stuff is.
And again, if you.
You don't think there's anything to do with the markets in the economy?
Well, I've got some, well, you know the line, Everglades Land.
So we'll keep covering it.
They said they're going to be transparent.
They're putting it on the web, everything they find.
And boy, oh boy, it's going to be a comedy act.
Up next, the markets.
I'm Gary.
This is the one only investors edge.

Hi, I'm Dr. Jake Goodman, host of Beyond the Script.
podcast where I sit down with pharmacists to answer the health questions you didn't even know you
could ask at the pharmacy counter. In this episode, we are diving into gut health with CVS pharmacist
Victoria Motola, who explains why so many of us live with stomach issues we should not accept as normal.
A lot of what I see is just like chronic bloating, chronic stomach aches. Like I get a stomach ache
every time that I eat.
And it just becomes like a lifestyle where, oh, yeah, you know, I just, I have a stomach
kick every day.
Or I'm constantly feeling like gassy.
And all of those things are not something that generally, if you have a healthy gut, you
should be living with.
So that's when we deep dive.
We deep dive into your medication.
We deep dive into your OTC medication.
And then at that point, we can probably identify something that we can change.
Hear the full conversation, plus some fascinating facts about how gut health affects so much
more than just your stomach on Beyond the Script, a podcast from CVS Pharmacy and IHeartRadio.

Hey, this promises to be fun.
Investors Edge.
The last bastion of quality programming.
With Gary Coltbaum.
It doesn't get better than this.
Okay, welcome once again to Investors Edge.
And by the way, we're doing this radio show off of my earbuds and an iPhone.
And I hear it comes in pretty good.
Okay.
So we go from government.
They have not picked the Treasury Secretary yet.
I do not believe.
But I hear Howard Lutnik from Cantor Fitzgerald.
and a couple of other people.
I heard the Transportation Secretary is somebody from Fox.
Sean Duffy used to be a congressman.
He has been host of a show with Dagan McDowell on Fox Business every day,
and he is going to be Transportation Secretary.
And may I state for the record,
Pete Buttigieg, the current Transportation Secretary,
lost me like in the first,
five minutes when he said that
our roads
are racist.
No, no, no, I'm not making that up.
Well,
because certain types
of buses
were higher and could not
get through bridges. That's
racist.
This is what we've had as a
transportation secretary.
And again, I've never met the guy.
I'm sure he's a nice man.
We're talking business here.
he actually said that our streets and highways are racist.
It's their own, it's their MO.
It's, it's, it's like their only answer to everything is everything's racist.
Everything was done for racism.
Yes, they built the roads and the highways and bridges just to piss off the blacks and Hispanics because the people who built them were racist.
Oh, wait a minute.
Hold on. Wasn't that the government building those roads and streets and bridges?
Isn't that the DOT? Oh, that department of, oh, that's right.
Anyway, so anything's a step up from this guy professionally.
I've never met Mr. Duffy, and I hope he does a great job.
And if they do more LaGuardia airports going forward, that'll be a great thing.
They turned a crap hole of LaGuardia Airport into the number one airport in the country now.
It's just fantastic.
Fantastic.
And great Delta lounges there too.
Okay.
Howard Lutnik, Cantor Fitzgerald, in case you don't know, he was the CEO.
Cantor Fitzgerald was one of the worst hit during 9-11.
And he represented him so well afterwards and has done the right thing.
by by everybody there i hear you also did something to the effect of uh any families and their children
whatever had jobs good man i met him once in the green room at uh fox in new york city uh seems like
a very good guy and a tremendous success um and we'll see how it goes going forward i don't think
Gates is going to make it to it. I don't think he should. Kennedy, I have my qualms,
but he is right about one thing. The country is, you know, need some work. And something
happened that I read where, and this is true, I think it was fruit loops that in Canada,
there's none of these additives, but in the United States, there was a bunch of these chemicals
in the same fruit loops. So maybe he's on.
to something and if he gets confirmed, we'll give him every chance to do good things.
We'll give him every chance to do good things.
All right.
So I said earlier the gooder getting gooder.
And what we mean by that is I've got only 65 new highs on the NASDAQ and you can
probably knock out about 35 or 40.
So there's very few.
On the New York, there's only 99 new highs and you can knock out.
probably 40 on there.
So there's not a lot of new yearly highs.
But what's getting there is going.
Good getting gooder.
Netflix up 25 today.
New yearly high.
Something called app loving APP.
Up 6%.
New yearly high.
Reddit, close.
Up eight and a half.
Spotify.
close, up 10, duolingo, up 14.
And these things are three and four percent higher, maybe five on a couple.
There's a select few things, and they're in software, fintech, they call it, payment systems, and the like.
And they're not given a chance to get in.
And what we mean by that is they've moved away.
from specific entry points that have lower risk.
We call them the trees.
And this is on a day where the NASDAQ debt finished down 180.
And as I speak, it's 255 p.m. East Coast time.
NASDAQ's up 167.
By the way, the Dow is down 150.
So the NASDAQ's going its own little way.
I also have to mention Nvidia.
Very simply, they report after the close tomorrow.
It's up 660 today to 146 and change.
And it was down a little bit over the last few days and it got it all back today.
I don't really see any news.
But I guess the market's betting on something big is coming out of it tomorrow.
We'll see.
Just letting you know up 660 today.
And that's helping the NASDAQ.
And as you know, the semiconductor index is a horror show.
It is underperform by miles markets over the last few months,
which some stocks just absolutely crippled.
The equipment makers, and one would think that would affect a lot of the things in tech,
because they're all reporting.
lower sales.
It's affected them,
ASML,
applied materials,
KLAC,
Lamb Research,
even ones that were holding up
lower beta names like Texas instruments,
gagging,
but Invidia,
sticking out like a sore thumb,
even AI names like Broadcom
ain't happening.
So it is a one-note stock.
And I've,
received about 10 emails already. What do I think about their earnings tomorrow? What do I think is going
happen? Answer is, I don't have a clue. Don't know. If I was to be negative, I would say the bar is raised
high. Up next. What else? More on the markets. This is the one only investors edge.

We're listening to America is talking.
Investors Edge.
He's got to be pleased with that. The crowd is just on its feet here. He's a Cinderella boy.
With Gary Coltbaum.
It comes highly recommended. You're going to feel best.
if you talk to and what once again to investors edge so i mentioned at vizdia what a possible issue is is
that it's had a big run the bar is raised high and the group sucks normally normally listen carefully
give me a group with 20 stocks in it 40 stocks 80 stocks and if 99% of those stocks
or acting like crap, I'm not buying the one that's strong.
But Invinia has stood out like a sore thumb.
Now, the stock is hardly up from June.
The high in June was 141.
Opening today, it was 140.
So maybe that time is going to give it rise tomorrow.
Don't know.
We'll let you decide on that.
We've had a good year with the stock.
actually we've had a great year with the stock
we don't own it now
and our last trade
we lost money on
very small
and I must tell you
before that we bought it perfectly in September
right off the 50 day
but I
traded it
traded again and screwed up the second trade
let me take that back
didn't screw up the second trade
I made a conscious decision
and the stocks
higher from where
we sold and going into earnings, there is no way I'm going to be buying it back. We'll see what
the reaction is tomorrow. But for me, the big story right now is a concentrated move in, I don't want
to call it a select few names because it's more than a few. A few would denote maybe five.
there's like
25 names
that have really stuck out like sore thumbs
I mentioned APP
D-U-O-L
which was sneaky
DoorDash
I mentioned Netflix
Reddit
off the recent gap to the upside
that just gap to the upside
Spotify
symbol V-R-T
that is
veritive holdings
and they're all
data you know you keep hearing about these
need of the data centers
data centers
in the case of Reddit
you know what they do online platform
app
love it that APP which is just
amazing as of now
mobile app ecosystems
go figure the hell what that is
sometimes it's tough to figure out
That is the story.
Kava, which has been under pressure, but has been strong restaurant chain, a carvana, things like that.
So just letting you know a select group, and we'll see how it goes.
That's not to say other areas aren't good.
The financials are fine, just resting.
They're all down today, but just resting.
Now, the bear areas are the solars.
I'm not going to call China bearish, but I will say, boy, it had a big straight move up and a big straight move down.
As everybody was talking about, this has got to be another big move because China government is doing this, that, and the other thing.
But they have bigger problems than I even thought.
And I do read up on it.
Oils have been better.
The pipelines are bullish.
but other things aren't.
And then as we stated to you, on the bearish side right now is, and leave no doubt, new administration reactions.
They have definitively came out and said that they are contractors to the government.
The stocks have been squashed.
Drug companies, the stocks have been squashed.
Food and beverage.
I don't know if you call them squashed.
but down markedly for food and beverage.
So there have been some definite outcomes from the administration.
And by the way, that is not a political statement.
We're just stating a fact for each and every one of you.
And on the other end, Tesla's up.
And this Bitcoin, holy crap.
Ladies and gentlemen, we knew that Bitcoin, we called the breakout.
of this inanimate object.
And of course, the gap because of the election.
From the breakout, which was three days before the election,
excuse me, about a week before the election,
on the gap of the election, it's up 60 to 74.
23%.
And then you have things like micro strategy,
is just a leveraged entity, a big-time leveraged entity, the thing's gone straight up.
And this is a company that's basically borrowing money to buy more Bitcoin, which means
if things go awry, it's going to come down as fast as it's gone up.
But I'm jealous, and I'm getting asked a lot about the Bitcoin.
I repeat what I've said to you all long, whether it goes up big or crashes, which
by the way it is done multiple times, I still don't understand what the hell it is.
It's just a fixed asset in how much is out there and people are buying into it.
It has no function.
That's all.
That's not putting it down because guess what?
It's been going higher.
But it's just a fixed asset and it's being bought and you have all these ETFs now so you can jump into it.
and people are jumping on each other, buying at any price, regardless of risk.
I told you about one of my clients, who's no longer a client.
But I think 1,100 shares at $320.20.
I said to him, good luck.
I hope it goes to the moon.
That was seven days ago, trading days ago.
It's 428.
He bought Microstrategy.
I'm jealous.
but he bought into an entity that borrows money to buy an inanimate object.
But that object is northbound.
So guess what?
The people that have been yelling and screaming about Bitcoin, you got to own, they've been right.
We don't recognize the why.
We recognize the what.
and that is the price has done what they said it would do.
And the word relentless comes to mind.
Now, whether or not it is a mania and it is going to pull another Eiffel Tower, I don't know.
But it is starting to look a little bit Eiffel Towerish, which usually doesn't end well.
But in real time right now, dead.
the Bitcoin's up
Excuse me
I got to give it
Give it back
Did I say 23?
It's up 33%.
33%
In 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
10 trading days
On something
that produces no earnings
No sales
No products
No nothing
But doesn't matter
Again,
it's your money, you get to decide.
We're not here to tell you what to do.
We're here describing what's going on.
And it's quite stunning to say the least.
If things change, we'll yell at you.
We're not shy.
If things change, we'll scream at you.
We're not shy.
As you know, we're quite the worry warts on everything.
We believe the most important part of the equation is protecting capital at all costs.
And then worry about the rest.
But in this case, ain't nobody worry.
And another day to day.
And leave no doubt, this move is off of the election.
where you have the president and his people talking it up left and right, right and left,
left, left and left, left and right and right and left.
I have a little bit of an issue with it because you lose votes if this thing goes the wrong way.
Up next, what else we got for you?
I'm Gary. This is the one only investors edge.

Inversters Edge with Gary Culpa.
And welcome once again to Investors Edge.
Now let me tell you what we have to watch out for.
I want you to listen carefully.
Right now, they have said that the market's been broadening out.
Well, I'm saying it's not brought, it has broadened out, but the herd is starting to thin.
And as I said to you, the good gooder, back in 99, what simply happened is the herd got thinner and thinner by the day.
while the market bought into a select few areas of note.
And all the money came out of a lot of areas and into, as you remember, the mania.
I recall I had a visit with a CEO, one of the most major housing companies in the world.
The story goes that this CEO had an account with a broker that worked at my firm.
And the broker asked me to go along to visit the company.
At the time, the housing stocks were trading at one-time earnings.
Let me repeat that.
The housing stocks were trading at one-times earnings.
earnings. While the market was buying up, I think Walmart was 70 times earnings. There was a select
few names like a Walmart, but you know what names they were. When I was all done with that
bull market, the last stocks I owned were EMC. I'm going back in the wayback machine.
I own Nortel, which by the way, had some accounting problems after the fact.
Lucent, I'm trying to think there was a courting, and when they topped,
I didn't get out that right at the top, oh, and Oracle, right at the top, but pretty close to it.
And that was it.
and then we went through the most vicious bear market.
We have NASDAQ, NASDAQ 100 down in the 80s.
We're going to be watching for a little bit of that right now.
We're not saying it's going to happen.
We're just letting you know the, how do I put this?
The ingredients are there because as I have my screen set up,
I can tell that just fewer and fewer.
and when you have a NASDAQ
up 169 today as I speak
and I have 66 new highs and 186 new lows
on the NASDAF, it's something that sticks out.
So just let you know, as you can see, I'm quite the historian,
quite the memory of years past,
especially the sore thumb years,
But right now, let me be clear again.
Software.
Not all, because Microsoft lags.
But software.
It's been coming on.
If you look at the IGV, which is the ETF, broke out the day after the election, went straight up, pulled back the three days and looks like today was the hold for now.
the crypto and
crypto related
so what you have is some
things like a coin base
a Robin Hood
I will say the crypto
miners, nah
they ain't happen
the crypto
and a select few whatever
else as I mentioned
Spotify, Reddit, Netflix
I'll throw it a little bit of
article we'll see if Nvidia
has a good reaction tomorrow.
Again, we don't know.
Just want you to keep in mind,
you have three times the new yearly lows
and yearly highs on the NASDAQ,
but that, again, the good is gooder.
Now we'll see does the bad get badder.
And I don't have that answer as of yet.
Make any sense?
We're past earning season,
but a few left
as I said
Nvidia tomorrow
Palo Alto Networks
tomorrow
I think we get Target this week
T.J. Max
Deer, raw stores
and a few others
but we're pretty much
past all the big guys
the Fed
not for a few weeks
got the Thanksgiving
holidays coming up
which sometimes
seasonal strength
and I am not in this camp
that
Nvidia is going to be
the end all
be all for the market. I think the market's doing its own thing regardless.
But today the bet, most definitely, they're betting on good reaction from Nvidia
Mark. In spite, if you go do what I do every day and scan 85 semiconductor stocks,
mostly all in the toilet with some deep into the toilet. Yeah, I know that's too much
information. So that's a little bit around about, didn't even mention yields down
a little bit today, but have been sticking up.
But this big story today is
when it was
three in the morning here in Hawaii, Maui,
and I saw futures, Dow down 500,
NASDAQ down 180, didn't happen.
Dow weak, NASDAQ strong.
So that all said, you have a great day.
Drive carefully.
When you get home, do like I do, quite simple.
Make sure you hug your family.
Make sure you hug your children.
They will feel better.
You will feel better.
I promise stay well, be well.
Thanks for joining us.
Appreciate you listening.
Until tomorrow.
