E40: Recession Realities - Unpacking Economic Indicators, Techno-Feudalism, Selling Airbnb, AXON vs EOSE bet

Are we in a recession or not? What is the Sahm Rule Recession Indicator? Why does Claudia Sahm herself not trust its conclusion at the moment? Are we no longer in a capitalist system? A preview of an upcoming conversation about techno-feudalism and the contradictions of capitalism. Blame Monkey for this one. Did Luke get lucky selling Airbnb $ABNB before earnings based on local anecdotal evidence from his visit to the Paris Olympics? When and what is anecdotal evidence good for? We consider some examples: $AAPL $NFLX $TSLA. Luke reaches 12,000 followers on X on the strength of his investing success and meticulous record keeping. We answer a few questions from listeners, including what company could we not pull a trigger on despite wanting to: $META $PLTR $AAPL. Badger provides an update on Axon’s $AXON latest fantastic earnings. Meanwhile, Monkey explains why he thinks $EOSE will be the better investment in two years’ time despite his own enthusiasm for $AXON.
