Les Étoiles Vagabondes
Step off Wall Street's grimy sidewalks and plunge into the wilderness with the ACID Capitalist as your guide on another mind-bending journey. We've connected with Tom Morgan, a standout from this year's Ira Sohn conference and a fellow traveler lost in the financial wilds. Tom tells me that it's fantastic being telepathic, that he’s read my mind, that things are really drastic…With Tom as our wandering star, we explore the possibilities of finance's future, navigating the abstract without seeking anything specific. We're the shamans of finance, venturing into risk, creativity, and the art of foresight, our vision blurred by last night's tequila.We share stories of profound revelations and the rare, gonzo path less traveled, challenging the monotony of corporate life. This journey is not just another finance podcast; it's an exploration of curiosity's core.We delve into the brain's right hemisphere, we’re out there on the perpendicular, not searching for anything in particular, maybe seeking life's meaning, syncing with Jung's synchronicity, and pondering the ego's demise. Is our spiritual quest merely a competitive climb, an infinite loop ?Here's the paradox: As AI challenges the left hemisphere's relevance, might the shamans, the daring outsiders, become finance's new deities ?Dare to listen and let your mind wander the fringes of finance's future.Also, be sure to watch Tom's 5 minutes of wisdom: https://x.com/tomowenmorgan/status/1775957154521821593⬇️ Subscribe on Patreon or Substack for full episodes ⬇️https://www.patreon.com/HughHendryhttps://hughhendry.substack.com⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Leave a five star review and comment on Apple Podcasts!🧢 Hats & Merch 📸 Instagram 🐦 Twitter / X📩 Substack👂Listen and 🔥 Subscribe📺 YouTube🎧 Apple Podcasts🎙️ Spotify🎵 Theme Song: Starspeed by MILANOTHIS IS NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE!

Acid Therapy - Episode 2
Ladies and gentlemen, daredevils of the financial markets, connoisseurs of the unconventional, welcome back to what I've cheekily dubbed "Acid Therapy" with the indomitable Denise Shull. If you thought our first Tango-in-Paris was a trip down the rabbit hole, brace yourselves for a sequel that delves deeper into the psyche of trading, investing, and the emotional rollercoaster that accompanies the pursuit of pecuniary success.In this episode, we peel back the layers of the market's psyche with Denise;  tackle the taboo, the unspoken truth that emotion is not just a part of decision-making; it is the cornerstone. Forget the mantra of the suits, that its cold, calculated logic. Nah, that's subterfuge, throwing you off the money trail. I'm here to tell you that to navigate the tumultuous seas of the market, you need to embrace the storm within.Denise challenges the notion that emotion and reason are at odds. Instead, she proposes that they are the yin and yang of successful trading. We explore the idea that your gut feeling isn't just old pizza acting up – it's your brain's way of pattern recognition, an unconscious intuition honed by experience and expertise. We dive into the controversial, discuss how the very emotions we're told to suppress could be the compass guiding us through the market's treacherous terrain.We also confront the uncomfortable, admitting that sometimes, despite our best analysis and emotional intuition, the market can still blindside us. It's a humbling reminder that we're playing a game with no guarantees, only educated gambles. It's absolutely orgasmic.And for those of you who are as intrigued by these conversations as I am, I invite you to join the Acid Capitalist Tribe on Patreon. There, you'll get the full-length versions of all my podcasts, including this eye-opening dialogue with Denise, and other exclusive content that's too hot for the mainstream.

Acid Therapy - Episode 1

Acid Therapy - Episode 1
Switching it up with a throwback from the archives. About a year ago, I had a series of 3 interviews with Denise Shull. She's a certified pro, cut from the same cloth as Wendy from Billions – you know, that HBO show about Bobby Axelrod, the hedge fund big shot. Denise even took a swing at the show's creators, claiming they owed her royalties for using her likeness in Wendy's character. She lost that one. Tough cookie, but sharp as hell.I hesitated about putting this out. It's not your usual investment talk, but maybe it's got something to say about our crazy world. Beyond that, it gets real personal. Last year was a deep dive into hurt for me, going through a separation with my life partner. Yeah, I'm the guy who married his first date. Who does that, right? Anyway, I've had time to think, and one thing missing from public life is laying it all out there. I felt the sharp pain that the chaos life sometimes throws at us. Figured maybe it's better out in the open.Most times, I'm cruising around playing the king-of-St-Barts, but reality is a whole lot more complex. To understand me better, I wanted to share. 'Cause we're all on this journey, and you've got to believe that open talks and exchanges are what helps us along the way. Anyway, enough rambling. Here's the first episode, just for you.⬇️ Subscribe on Patreon or Substack for full episodes ⬇️https://www.patreon.com/HughHendryhttps://hughhendry.substack.com⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Leave a five star review and comment on Apple Podcasts!🧢 Hats & Merch 📸 Instagram 🐦 Twitter / X📩 Substack👂Listen and 🔥 Subscribe📺 YouTube🎧 Apple Podcasts🎙️ Spotify🎵 Theme Song: Starspeed by MILANOTHIS IS NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE!

The nonsense that's spoken by the biggest investors. Words, endless words, jargonA science of profanities.But hat tip to the Bloomberg anchor, Tom Keane, for asking the most pertinent question,"Aren't you just making this up as you go along ?"A lot of the interview discusses investment strategy at the fabled end of the cycle. What cycle you might ask. The rates cycle ? The Fed seems to have indicated that hikes are ending.Will the US economic cycle end ? It continues to surprise on the upside but surely its days are numbered ? There's a discussion about the equity risk premium. A means of considering the relative attraction of stocks versus bonds. Everyone is against the Treasury market currently. But the equity risk premium is urging caution on equities.We discuss.⬇️ Subscribe on Patreon or Substack for full episodes ⬇️https://www.patreon.com/HughHendryhttps://hughhendry.substack.com⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Leave a five star review and comment on Apple Podcasts!🧢 Hats & Merch 📸 Instagram 🐦 Twitter / X📩 Substack👂Listen and 🔥 Subscribe📺 YouTube🎧 Apple Podcasts🎙️ Spotify🎵 Theme Song: Starspeed by MILANOTHIS IS NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE!
