In this episode of Market Mondays, we explore the power of a self-directed IRA and how it can be used to invest in real estate. Understanding how to leverage this tool for real estate investments is a key topic for savvy investors looking to diversify their portfolios and plan for long-term wealth. We also dive deep into major developments in the tech and energy sectors, including Microsoft’s 20-year deal to revive the Three Mile Island nuclear plant to fuel AI data centers. What are the implications of tech giants investing in nuclear energy for AI, and how might this shape the future of sustainable energy partnerships? Additionally, we analyze Microsoft's AI leadership and the potential challenges it faces as recent reports suggest a decline in its competitive edge. Palantir Technologies' inclusion in the S&P 500 has caused a significant surge in its stock price. What does Palantir bring to the index, and what are the risks and rewards for investors? Meanwhile, we discuss leadership turmoil at 23andMe after all independent directors resigned due to disagreements with CEO Anne Wojcicki. What does this mean for investor confidence? We also tackle the resignation of Nike's CEO amid internal controversies. How will this leadership change affect Nike's strategic direction and stock performance? Intel has also been in the spotlight, with board meetings and potential acquisition talks with Qualcomm. Should investors adjust their positions based on this news? In the energy sector, investor Stephanie Link mentions that ExxonMobil is trading at extremely cheap levels. Do we agree with this assessment, and what should investors consider before buying Exxon stock? Additionally, a new ETF uses AI to emulate Warren Buffett’s investment style—an interesting innovation, but are there risks involved in relying on AI for such strategies? We also revisit stocks like e.l.f. Beauty and Celsius Holdings, which have seen recent declines. Are these good buying opportunities, or should investors be cautious? We dive deeper into Palantir Technologies' business model and future growth projections, considering its potential to become a significant holding in tech portfolios. Lastly, we examine whether Apple, despite perceptions of lackluster innovation, remains an underestimated investment. Plus, we explore how high-profile artists and influencers promote brands like Tesla without formal endorsement deals, and why black-owned companies don't receive the same level of public endorsements. What does this reveal about cultural influences on brand promotion, and how does it affect investment and growth opportunities? #MarketMondays #SelfDirectedIRA #RealEstateInvesting #MicrosoftAI #NuclearEnergy #Palantir #Nike #23andMe #ExxonMobil #AIinInvesting #AppleStock #InvestorStrategies #TechInvesting #Tesla #WarrenBuffett #FinancialEducation #StockMarketAnalysis Our Sponsors: * Check out NerdWallet: https://www.nerdwallet.com Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
