Join Downtown Josh Brown and Michael Batnick for another round of What Are Your Thoughts? On this week’s episode, Josh and Michael discuss the biggest topics in investing and finance, including:

►Tesla Echo Bubble – How many other growth stocks have developed into their own mini-bubbles based on the Tesla playbook?

►Too much supply – We may finally be at the point where Wall Street has brought on enough new product for the all the thirst out there.

►IPOs on Crack – Basically anyone can go public now, you have a better chance of being offered your own SPAC than getting a vaccine.

►Worst Quarter Ever – some eye-popping revenue stats we may never see again in our lifetimes.

►Hedge Fund Bailout – Ever hear the one about the message board riot that broke a hedge fund? Insanity everywhere you look.

►Blockchain Collectibles – What the hell is this now?

►Intangibles – Should analysts rethink GAAP because of how little of importance it captures for companies in the early stages of their growth?

►If you were 20 – Michael and Josh on how they’d be behaving in this market environment if they were 20 years old again.

And much more!
