3 Stock Investing Keys, Real Estate Investing with IRAs, Microsoft's AI Move, & Time to Short Apple?

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?

The Microsoft deal is with Constellation not Exelon. The company’s split over 2 years ago .

Groceries are more an issue of price gouging vs. inflation. The 50bp cut also reduces interest on deposits. Financial institutions benefit. Count the cost prior to re-financing and take into consideration how long you plan to hold onto the asset.

I’m 53 and have about $225k liquid in savings which I plan to put towards becoming a homeowner, but based on the current high prices on real estate, do you suggest I hold from buying and look at dividend paying stocks instead?

[@cortez9978]

after studying the trajectory of great assets like real estate, dividend paying stocks and gold, my conclusion is to buy and invest in what you can afford today! working with a license financial specialist can certainly help

Agreed, I'm in line with having a fudiciary oversee my day-to-day investing, cos my job doesn't permit me the time to analyze stocks myself. Thankfully, my portfolio is well diversified and has just 5X in 5 years, summing up nearly $1m as of today.

I've worked in real estate for over 25 years and have neglected a major stock portfolio, however I need a different plan now.. mind if I look up the professional guiding you please?

[@Marquis-9]

I take guidance from ''Katherine Nance Dietz '' she's quite known in her field of work with over two decades of experience, and well spoken.
